Fine Golf Course.
The course covers 2.2l6 yards. and has
four holes less than POO yards apart
These holes are especially difficult. None
of the green's have been completed, but
several of the members went over the
course yesterday. One stated afterward
that he covered the distance in forty-four
strokes. but later averred that he could
do the nine holes in forty-one. if he was
up on his game and eXerted himself.
The first hole is 30 yards. 1t is not
hard to approach. The second is 135
yards. and is located upon mound. with
slopes on all sides. The ball must be
dropped upon the mound or the drive Is
bound to be a bad one. One must travel
40 yards more to reach the third hole,
which is just off the edge of a large wood

is 1873 yards or. and it is uphill work
all along to reach it. The fifth hole is

CHRISTEN GOLD DREDGE
IN GREEN RIVER WATERS

over on the Green river a few DAYS ago
there was pulled off real champagne
christening-nOt of a vessel but -of an inn
mense dredge constructed to work the
gold laden sands of the river bed. The
dredge was built by the Uintah Placer
Mining & Exploration company at a cost
of approximately $4,000. according to the
Vernal Express. and the owners are con-
fident that it will prove a paying invest
ment.
Machinery for the huge affair. of the
weight of fully 100 tons, was freighted
across the country distance of seventy
miles from the railroad, and something
Ike 10000 feet of lumber was required for
the framework. The work was under the
supervision of Isaac Tester, one of the
most prominent builders of dredges in the
country

NEVAOA-UTAH TO BEGIN
PRODUCTION NEXT MONTH

George Z. Learnard Of HoOley. Learnard
& Co., president of the Nevada-Utah COM
pany, is quoted on company affairs in
Boston as follows:
by Dec. 10 I figure that the Nevada
Utah company will be producing $50 tons
of silver-lead ore per day from it's Day
company $3.50 per day. or $4,000 per
month. This would be at the rate of $40
900 per annum, and we hope in the future
to multiply this fourfOld.
I'VE have been devoting all our energies
to the development of the Day mine at
Phoebe, and are now on the eve of deriv-
Ing material benefits from this develop
ment. In order to concentrate our efforts
we are not doing anything on our other
properties in Phoebe, Beaver county. or
Bingham. but We consider them all val
liable. In fact. our directors not long ago
turned down an offer of 100000 for one
of our idle properties.
THE Nevada Utah company now has
outstanding 100000 shares of stock. our
authorized capital We started operations
with outstanding capital of 10000
shares, since which time we have put on
40 900 additional shares for the purchase
of the Manhattan and Imperial groups of
properties in Utah and Nevada. which We
consider valuable acquisitions. and suffi-
cient cash to complete property payments
and provide money for development
I'VE have now concluded our heavy de-
velopment expenditures. and / figure We
will start upon producing career with all
bills paid and ample cash in our treas

MINES AND MINING

American company has one at its

glance at the great stack there dis

has not yet been able to devise a pro-

of handling 300 tons day, and it is likely
that the work of installing same will be
done within a short time. In anticipation
of this Improvement the grading for the

The principal reason for delaying the
addition of the cyanide equipment has
been the lack of water. At various times

In fact the water supply has becn the
