ing wall. At the time of writing. a
black streak of brecciated quartz and
tale feet wide is showing in the face,
and giving every promise Of good
values.
Having erosscut from wall to wall,
we should then drift on that part of it
which contains the best values, and by
systematic development, the vein should
prove to be of considerable value.
''On the 300-foot level the southwest
crosscut is still in the dacite, which,
however, is beginning to show streaks
of taic containing a few pebbles and
boulders of silicifed dacite carrying
small values. Recently this crosscut
has improved considerably, and very
shortly we should intersect vein, the
outerop of which appears ON the surface
to the southwest of the shaft With
this showing there is every encourage
ment for thoroughly developing large
area of the lease''

REPORT OF OPERATIONS ON
CONSOLIDATED RED TOP

Arthur IL. Lowry, superintendent for
the Consolidated Red Top Lease COM
pany, operating the north half of the
Red Top claim makes the following re-
port to the management, of the COM
pany's operations for the past month:
During the past month a very con
siderable amount Of work has been ac-
complished, with most encouraging re-
suits.
"The shaft has been sunk from 275
to $40 feet, and timbered close to the
bottom, thus leaving a sump 10 feet
deep. Stations 8 feet long by S1a feet
wide have been cut at the 150-foot and
30o-foot levels. Both have been sub
stantially timbered. From the 150foot
station a crosscut has been driven 25
feet TO the east. On the 300foot level
a erosscut to the southwest has been
made 35 feet.
''In regard to the ground which this
work has passed through, ! am glad to
be able to say that we are meeting with
every encouragement. In the. east
crosscut on the 150-foot level, 10 feet
in from the station, we encountered the
foot wall of the vein mentioned in my
last report. Since then we have CON
tinued to pass through vein matter, and
each round has brought not only an inn
proved change in appearance, but also
an increase of value. 1t can safely be
estimated, l believe, that we shall not
reach the hanging wall in less than 10
feet, possibly considerably more, and it
can reasonably be expected that the

aIBRALTAR LEASE

The preliminary work ON the Gibral-
ter company lease on Combination No.
3, has all been finished during the past
week, and today the bucket descends
the shaft for the first time since the
lease was taken over by the new com
pany. The shaft is over 800 feet in
depth and there are two crosscuts, all
to be cleaned out and explored, before
work of sinking begins, which will be
early in the week. The lower crosscut
had just penetrated a vein when the
leasers were obliged to close last fall
because of the strike.
The shaft is splendidly equipped with
one Of the best plants in the district
and the work of sinking to the 500-foot
point, will not consume much time,
under the energetic management of
Downie d. Muir.

MOHAWK COMBINATION
MAKES TONNAGE RECORD

by the Consolidated company followed
and arbiters were appointed. They gave
the lease company seven days to get the
workings in shape and four DAYS in
which to extract ore.
Under Fred J. Siebert s direction the
preparations were made and the ore ex-
traeted.
At Z O'Clock Monday morning the
first miner was dropped into the mine.
Twenty minutes later the first load of
ore went into the bins. Ninety-six hours
later the 930th ton of ore came out of
the shaft, followed few minutes latter
by fifty weary and perspiring miners
whe were literally call in.''
During the four days the Mohawk
Combination produced $50 tons of ore
of an average value of SO ton, max
ing a total extraction for the period of
$69,750, something novel and perhaps
unparalleled in mining history.

NEW TOWN LAID OUT
AT GOLD MOUNTAIN

w. II. Sils and w. b. Ogden have re-
turned from Gold Mountain, where they
inspected properties in which they are
interested.
Mr.. Stills reports that the material
for his forty-ton Hathaway mill has all
been shipped and excavation for the
foundation completed. The mill build
ing is planned TO double the capacity
of the mill later.
A new crosscut tunnel has been
started. 1t is expected that it win cut
all four veins in the property within
$50 feet and give nearly 700 feet Of
backs. The tunnel is so located that
the ore can be run directly into the
mill.
A strike was made several days ago
on the independence claim, which is
owned by Mr.. Sills. 1t adjoins the Ne
vada Empress. The ledge is eight feet
wide, fourteen inc'ses running $92.
The new town If Gold Mountain has
been plated and fifty-six lots have al
ready been engaged. A grocery store
and lodging house have been estab-
lished. Quite number of tents have
been pitched. Water of the purest
quality will be piped from Old Camp,
and there is ample material to build up
a good town.
