RICH PLACER STRIKE
OCCURS IN BIG WASH
SOUTHWEST OF DALE

DALE CITY, San Bernardino county,
May 3O.-Charles r. Campbell, who has
| recently bought a large tract of placer
ground from John McGrath about three
miles southeast of Dale City was in
town today and reports what is gem
orally considered a very rich placer
strike. Mr.. Campbell says that at a
depth of only twenty feet he struck
gravel paying as high as $27 a cubic
yard
These placer diggings are located at
the mouth of the canyon which leads
up to the famous Los Angeles mine be-
longing to the Brooklyn Mining COM
pany, and is about three-quarters of a
mile south of the Los Angeles.
The gravel beds that have been
tested and found good are situated on
the top of fiat ridge just east of the
main wash. This wash is about 400
feet in width and is supposed to be
about fifty feet to bedrock 1t has not
yet been tested for placer, but judging
from the richness of the gravel above
the bedrock and the gravel near it
must be exceedingly rich In placer gold.
This is not an original discovery, as
MeXicans are said to have taken out
with a dry-washer as high as $50
day several years ago in small gulch
leading out from these gravel beds.
Beside Mr.. Campbel's property there
are a great many placer claims located
about four miles south of Dale. j. w
Singleton and others of Los Angeles
have several claims said to run as high
as $40 a yard.

values. The body of high-grade has
increased in both size and value, and
with the same ratio of. improvement
extraction and actual shipping could
be started in another weeks time.
The west crosscut from the drift at
1853 feet is all in ore, with four to five
feet of shipping grade, which carries
values in gold ranging from $75 to 500
a ton. Another crosscut is being run
from the drift to the southeast, which
is also in ore.
The shaft is being continued and is
now nearing the 250-foot point. 1t may
be carried to 800 feet before drifting
will be started, as the object of the
management is to get into condition to
extract ore with the least expense and
quickly
However, everything looks so well
and steady improvements prevail to
such an extent that this property will
very likely begin shipping ore by June
10. 1t is not a question of having ore,
for it is there in plenty, it is economi-
cal and advantageous arrangements
for extraction and shipment that are
required. The Richard Garberg lease
will be a shipper and a steady one,
very soon.

WILL MAKE ASSAY
OFFICE ADEQUATE

CARSON CITY, May 3O.-Superin-
tendent Colcord of the U. S. assay
office received word last week that he
should put in his requisition for three
new gas furnaces, with the blowers,
motors and other machinery needed
for their operation.
These furnaces will take the place
of the old coke furnaces. Two of the
old furnaces will be dismantled and
one retained for emergencies. The
new furnaces will be installed as rap
idly as possible. The blower will be
run by electricity and it will be pos
sible to do in twenty minutes the work
that now requires an hour and a half
thereby doubling the capacity of the
Carson City assay office about twice.
Two additional men will be required
and will be provided.
The office handled last month
about 100000 worth of bullion and
would have handled three times as
much had it not been far the unfor-
tunate fact that the furnaces are not
large enough for the work required
in this state.
Superintendent Colcord asked for
these improvements some months
ago and when the Goldfield Console
dated shipment of 100000 worth of
bullion was transhipped because he
had no facilities for working it.

0NE-FOOT PAY STREAK
UNF0LDS AT PARADISE
Vein System Covers Most of Tunnels
Face, Carrying Copper, Silver
and Lead

PARADISE. May 3O-Another strike
of rich ore has been made on the
Doran & Gallagher property-this time
in the west drift. The pay streak in
the tunnel is one foot wide, with the
vein system covering most of the face.
1t is shipping ore, carrying copper.
silver and lead. The vein has every
appearance of widening out. The
depth is about four feet. The drift is
now being run in a southwesterly di-
rection while the vein is dipping to
the northwest. 1t is about twenty
feet southwest of the 120-foot shaft
1t is believed that this drift is on the
hanging wall. Should this be proved,
1t would mean an ore vein sixty feet
in width
The board of directors of the
Providence Copper company has de-
cided to sink 200 feet on the Rabbit
group, near Dunn Springs. The sink
ing will be continued on the shaft on
Rabbit No. 5. which is now fifty feet
deep. The entire shaft is highly min
eralized and on the foot wall there is
about one foot of high grade copper
glance and carbonate ore. The gangue
is quartz and spar. The shaft is on a
a contact of birdseye porphyry for the
foot wall-an ideal formation for large
deposits of ore. And from present
sbowings and indications it is believes
to be only question of depth when
this property will be big shipper.
The work of the Early Bird, Sam S.
Suplee in charge, is still going on. The
shaft is now thirty feet deep and is
looking well.
