New Drills for SARATOGA

Manager John Owen of the Saratoga
received this week consignment of fif-
teen Schmucker stopping drills which will
be employed in the Slopes at the mine.
Since the recent visit of stockholders
the work in the mine and lateral from
the Newhouse tunnel has been increas-
ed as rapidly as possible. Blind levels
are being driven from the stope both
east and west in the ore body from
which the present output is taken. This
will largely increase the capacity of this
stope. The main lateral also is being
driven. 1t has less than 200 feet to go
to get under the shaft, with which con-
nection will be made. Before that point
is reached however the big ore shoot of
the mine should be cut. 1t is the pur-
pose of the management to open that
for stopping at once and to bring the
mine in all parts to its highest produc-
ing capacity. The coming summer will
be one of activity in the mine approach

Thousand Tons Of Ore Broken.

The Pewabic company intends shortly
to put a 6xS steam hoist on the Richard
son shaft for the benefit of lessees. The
Richardson shaft is 500 feet deep but
the hoist will only be used from the 200
and 300-foot levels, where the lessees
will have ground. At present the Rich
ardson is being worked through the Iron
shaft.
In the Pewabic 1000 tons of ore is
broken in the slopes and levels. This
is mill dirt and is being treated by the
company mill. Beside this considerable
smelling ore is being mined and shipped.
The air compressor at the mines has
been repaired with a new air cylinder
and a new.--stesm, cylinder has been
placed on the engine at the mill. The
extensive improvements the Pewabic
company contemplates both at the mines
and mills will be made during the year.

Work 10 Commence on Continental.

Ed. Morgan, representing several
moneyed men of Chicago, is in the city
this week, arranging to take hold of the
Continental mine on Quartz hill. The
Continental is located about 1900 feet
from the Sapp and it is the intention of
Mr.. Morgan and his people to move the
shaft house and machinery on the Sapp
to the Continental. The removal of the
building and machinery will be COM
menced as soon as some preliminary ar
rangements can be made.
The Continental is the property of
Bruce M. Meyers and was worked two
years ago by him. Comparatively very
little work has been done on the mine
since its discovery. The shaft is only
about 225 feet in depth. Several years
ago the mine was worked by AL. l.Simonds
and associates who took out very good
pocket. Mr.. Morgan will return to
Chicago the latter part of the week and
several men with whom he is associated
in the venture will make trip to
the county to inspect the proposition.

the Hampton mines during this year
and plans are now under way to carry
out the work the company has in view.

Means Much TO The Countu.

Captain James T. Smith, mining au-
thority of the Denver News, in writing
about the changes made by the smelters
IN the allowance for lead, Tuesday, said:
Lead-producing mines in Gilpn and
Clear Creek counties and to wonder
ful extent in other districts, are re-
spending to recent changes in the al
lowance for lead in ores made by the
American Smelling and Refining COM
pany and at present in force. The OBJ
Ject in view is to bring out more lib
eral supply of lead fuxing ore to balance
the increased output from Cripple Creek,
Central City, and Leadville gold belt
and other shippers of what are desig-
mated dry ores. The favorable eff
fect of increased gold mining upon the
lead-silver districts is not new in Colo
RADIO. 1t was manifested in the gold re-
vival of 1894, and always makes itself
felt when renewed impetus is given to
mining for the worlds value standard,
let the market quotations for the other
metals be what they may.
Under the revised schedule the Clear
Greek or Gilpin miner if his ore Yields
10 per cent lead, is better off in his
smelter settlement to the extent of 81. 55
per ton. If his ore yields 20 per cent
lead his gain is $3.50 per ton and on so
per cent lead ore the advance yields
lS5.25 per ton. The schedule in use last
year was based on $500 per 100 pounds
lead in New York. The new schedule
is based on S4.00 per 100 pounds in the
same market. The prices paid per unit
twenty pounds-for lead in all ores and
concentrates are based upon quotation
OF 90 per 100 pounds, one cent up or
down for each change of five cents in
the quotation. To compute the miners
allowance when the price does not ex-
ceed S4.00 per 100 pounds take 80 per
cent of the New York quotation. When
it does exceed s4.00 per 100 pounds add
to $3.50 per 100 pounds one-half of the
excess over S4.00 per 100.
Mines in the Georgetown and Silver
Plume districts are already enlivened
by the better allowance for lead, and
larger shipments of silver ores and con-
centrates are again under way in Gilpin
county. The lead is largely confined to
the Black Hawk mines. The gold mines
of that county showed decided increase
in their January shipments compared
with the output for even the best
months in 1907

CLEANING Out Queen Of The West.

The Queen of the West mine in Chase
gulch, near the Virginia, owned by H.
j. Stevens of Denver, is being cleaned
out and the shafts and levels placed in
condition for retimbering. Much dead
work will have to be done before ore
can be mined as the workings are in
bad shape as a result of the many years
of inactivity of the mine. The Robert
Emmett, across the gulch from the
Queen of the West, also owned by H.
j. Stevens is being put in condition for
the early resumption of operations.

PINE CREEK STRIKE
Moley Pole Tunnel in Eight
Inches Of Rich Galena
Ore-Runs Big.

The Moley Pole tunnel, situated in the
Pine Creek section, reports strike of
eight inches of very rich galena ore in
the main tunnel, which is in Utah hill a
distance of 800 feet. This body of ore
was uncovered this week hy Shad Reid,
a stockholder of the company. The ore
runs very high in value, as is character
istic of the galena ore when once opened
up in this district. The tunnel was re-
Gently worked by Metzner & Company
of Wheeling, West Virginia, with w.
S. Scheneck as manager. The same
company also operated the Metha group
of claims on Montana hill. An eighty
foot crosscut was driven in the Moley
Pole by the eastern people, expecting
to encounter mammoth body of ore.
Had their operations been confined to
the main or old workings the.probability
is that large and continuous ore. bodies
would have been opened up. This prop
erty has produced some very rich ore in
the past and there is every reason to
believe that there still exists in this tun-
mel extensive ore shoots. The Moley
Pole can be put in first class, condition
with but very little work, and no doubt
it will be taken hold of by some good
company in the near future.

The Tramp Made a Hit.

Expressions of absolute satisfaction
on the part of the audience followed the
production of the millionaire Tramp"
at the Deadwood theatre last night. A
good house greeted his arrival and sat
in thorough appreciation of his work
throughout the evening. There were
perhaps five minutes after the rise of
the curtain that might have led on to
believe that he was up against the poor
er type of the ten, twenty, thirty varie-
ty, but this feeling was rapidly dispell-
ed as the story of the piece unwound
itself and there were times when the
audience was held in spellbound admira-
tion of really pathetic incidents, touch
ingly portrayed.
Harry Todd in the title role, is an
actor of real ability. The hypercritical
might insist that at times, he tears a
passion to tatters," but he is thrilling
and absorbing and passes from the
humorous to the pathetic with the
smoothness of finished artist.
Lorenzo Muszar in the difficult part
of DR.. Staley, did excellent work and
Gertrude Steele as Theresa Hampton,
lent graceful support to the conscien-
tious efforts of the others. The rest of
the company were entirely competent
and equal to the character and minor
parts entrusted to them. The piece
itself is we'll written and tells an inter.
esting story that sufficiently blends
pathos and humor to entitle it to ap'
preciative attention. .-Deadwood Daily

Lotus Group.

Unlimited development is being car
ried on on the Lotus group in Russell
section, owned by the Sternberger Bros.
Sinking is still being pursued on the
Ipava and the shaft is now down 1926
feet. Drifting is being pushed both
ways at the 300-foot point and good ore
is exposed both in the shaft and in the
drifts. This is of smelling variety
and regular shipments are being made.
The Gopher shaft is down $50 feet
and the depth is being rapidly increas-
ed by two shifts of miners. This shaft
will at least be sunk 300 feet and prob
ably 600, the object in sinking this shaft
being to reach the Michigan Boy, one
of the largest veins in the district. 1t
is anticipated that big ore bodies will be
struck when the vein is cut. There is
good streak of milling ore in the shaft
which averages about three fee. in
width
The water is being held in the Lotus,
the principal shaft of the group. This
shaft is 800 feet deep and the water is
DSiiS Hclu Iilc OOO lcNel, WIllCil Ds-
ing driven west. 1t is expected that
the water below the 800 will be drained
by the Newhouse tunnel which runs un-
der the group.
Three experts were up from Denver
last week making thorough examina-
ton of the group. They examined the
various shafts and drifts and took num-
erous samples of the ore. They appear
ed well pleased with the properties and
doubtless will make favorable report
on the mines. The arrival of the ex-
perts and their examinations conveys
the impression that sale of this ex-
tensive group is being negotiated. F.
G. Wood of Russell Gulch, is manager
of the Sternberger properties and de-
velopment is progressing most satisfac-
torily under his able direction.

PRACTICES WITH PISTOL
TO KILL TWO LAWYERS
w. M. Coward, 'the Giant" of
San Joaquin, Is Again
on the Warpath

STOCKTON, March 13.-For the
past six weeks W. NJ. Coward, a prom
inent real estate broker of San Joa-
quin and Stanislaus counties, known
throughout the San Joaquin valley as
'the giant" by reason of his size and
wonderful strength, has been practic-
ing with a large caliber automatic re-
volver, firing at long range targets,
that he may be more certain of carry
ing out his alleged threat to murder
Attorneys Jacob and Flack of Stock
ton, whom he is suing for an account
ing. According to Modesto officials
Coward made an attempt near Hughson
yesterday to kill Attorney Flack, who
has large property interests adjoining
him. A shooting was avoided by the
approach of a number of laborers.
Coward is said to have taken possession
of hotel owned by Flack, from which
he defied the officers to remove him. He
has ignored every process of the STAN
islaus courts that have so far been
served upon him.
Coward. who has been twice in the
state hospital and released on habeas
corpus. fractured the skull OF Con-
stable Davis of Modesto with an ice
pick month ago while the latter was
attempting to place him under ar
rest He has terrorized hospital attend
ants and Stanislaus officials. and it is
with difficulty that officers can be found
to approach him with process.
