STRIKE
Of $1,000 ORE

One of the biggest things which
has happened in the Bullfrog dis
trict in a mighty long while is a
strike made recently on the Tramp
Consolidated. In a raise which is
being carried from the 850-foot level
at the Denver claim to the workin,;
above of ore which win easily run
5000 to the ton was broken into.
Superintendent Garden brought a
chunk of it, weighing five to six
pounds, up town, and stopped at the
Miner office as he went along. Some
very rich r has been taken from
the Tramp. The gold was scattere /
all over it, and did not appear to be
in seams or crevices. but continuous
throughout the mass.
In the face of the raise there are
two stringers of about ten and eight
inches respectively, and each contain ,
ore of exceeding richness. Connec-
tion will be completed between the
350-foot level and the working above
which is known as Tunnel No. 4, in
a few days, when stopping on the RIGA
body will be started.
The entire vein is an excellent
quality of mill rock, and the streaks
are shipping ore of a high grade. AZ
present Superintendent Garden IS
throwing everything on the dump,
but when connection between the two
levels is made, and he starts stopping.
will sack the rock for shipment
The dump can be sorted and a cool
quantity of shipping picked out. The
fact of the matter is that if one is in
search of specimen ore, he does NOT
have to look long before he lights on
stuff which fairly glitters with free
gold. &
In the same locality, some time
back, when w. d. Blackmer had
charge of the property. a couple of
carloads of ore were extracted and
shipped. These returned $12S to the
ton, but the ore was not to be COM
pared in richness with the present
Much specimen ore has been
uncovered on the tramp estate, but
nothing before which equaled this. A
departure in the present instance is
the fact that outside of the greater
richness the ore appears in more gem
erous amounts. The two ~stringeis
are both highgrade, and practically
their entire contents are shipping.

tinued in this working. Superintend-

The Merchants and Miners Bank

failure, and no trouble is anticipated
But few depositors were caught ia

majority of the depositors took the

1t appears that the deposit
amount to about $4O,105, while ac-

$500.
According to Pyne, L. L. Aldridge

BIG DEAL MADE AT
THE ROSEBUD DIsTRyc7,

Probably the most important dea,
that has been contaminated in Rosa-
bud since the Parkhurst crowd toos
over the Brown Palace property. wac
closed yesterday, when Chas. W
Adams of San Francisco took over
from w. A. Calvin the White Mule
group, says the Humboldt Star.
This group of valuable claims Joins
the Brown Palace property on IN,
north and the White Alps proper.,
on the east. The White Alps vein
has been traced into the Fraction
claim of the White Mule group ann
will no doubt prove to be a very val
liable lead with some development
There is no doubt in the minds q
mining men who have looked tho
vein system of the Brown Palace oyor
carefully but what the veins are run
ming ~northeasterly and southwestern
and in such case the White Mule
group cover a good portion of this
famous vein.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Adams 10
start a force of men at work some
time in June. Mr.. Adams is at pres.
ent operating a lease on the Nevada
Five-of-Diamonds property. A shaft
is being sunk on the vein to the 60.
foot level with all possible speed.
When the 50-foot level is reached a
force Of men will be put to work
stopping ore, while another force will
continue sinking.
Mr.. Adams is a mining man who
has for several years kept in close
touch with the Nevada mining camps
and has always been found associa;.
ed with the conservative element. It
is probably his conservatism that
makes 1t possible for him to handle
big mining deals at the present time.
while the country is in such embar-
RAISING financial straits. His first
visit to Rosebud was in February las.
and since that time he has been an
