Denmark Going Ahead

Manager Hoban of the Denmark and
other properties has been entertaining
several eastern investors who have been
looking after their interests in this camp
and a most favorable impression has
been created. The Denmark is being
pushed ahead under contract, and the
heading is now nearing the 700 foot mark
from daylight. Several fine looking veins
have been encountered in the driving,
but these have not been thoroughly ex-
s2loited, the effort being singly to driving
the breast to put several old time pro-
ducers on the Soda creek side of Gold
Hill, where values are known to exist.
The visitors main object was to deter
mine what was the best course to follow
in operating their veins along the line OF
the tunnel, and it is understood that
they will proceed at once to exploit their
property. The milling facilities OF the
Chicago portal of the tunnel are such
that the product from that side is most
advantageous and, primarily it is one of
the objects of the enterprise.

Tonge and Donaldson

Mr.. Thomas Tonge, mining engineer
and authority on mining, recently made
an examination of the Donaldson mine
and the following is summary Of his
report:
Having regard t. the general charac-
teristics, what is the probable quantity
and value OF the ore in the Donaldson
vein above the level OF the Donaldson
drift (Rockford tunnel leveD up to the
worked out portions near the surface!
Taking the vein in the Donaldson
ground as 1900 feet long and 1000 feet
high above the level of the Donaldson
drift. that gives 100000 square feet.
Assuming that the ore in the unexpected
ground. for length of 1900 feet and
height of 1000 feet 10 average three feet
thick, that is. one foot of smelling ore
and two feet Of milling ore, that means
l,5OO,O cubic feet of smelling ore and
100000 cubic feet of milling, ore. Say
there are twelve cubic feet per ton, that
means 123,000 tons of smelling ore and
10000 tons of milling ore. But to be
conservative and to allow for barren
places cut these quantities in halt, VIZ:
to 81, coo tons of smelling ore and l23.OUj
tons of milling ore Within the last few
years the ore taken from continuation
OF the Donaldson vein in surface work
ings to the west of the Donaldson claim
is said to have averaged: smelling ore,
$50; milling ore sl5. But, in order to
be again conservative, | will estimate
the above mentioned reduced quantities
at the very reasonable valuations OF soo
per ton for the smelling ore and $40 per
ton for the milling ore and we have:-
$4,000 tons of smelling ore at
$50 Der ton ....... 49,. s3,125,ooo
$40 per ton .. 1,250,ooo
Total .y.........s .s4,375, 900

Adjutant Chas. F, Devlin, Sr., is slowly
recovering from his serious and almost
fatal sickness. He was taken suddenly
i'll nearly three weeks ago while Oh his
way to his ranch on Bear creek and it
was doubtful il he would survive long
enough to be brought home. His sick
ness is the result of hard service during
the civil war. He was member of Gen.
Phil Sheridan's fighting cavalry and fol-
lowed that distinguished soldier through
all OF his prominent battles and cam
paigns. With such care as he is now
receiving it will not be long before he
will be able to resume his active place

The hot tunnel on the north side of
the bath house has been placed in com
mission and is used whenever the south
tunnel is crowded. 1t has three pools
in it of different temperatures, besides
two bath tubs that are supplied from
the hot water from the Bradley shaft.
Mr.. J. A. Campbell is sgiving the propo-
sition his careful attention and aiming
to make it pleasant for the patrons.
While the patronage is fair, yet it is not
what it should be, perhaps owing to the
fact that the travelling public is not
sufficiently aware Of the completion
of the Improvements. The waters
in the warmest pools seem to be
hotter since the improvements have
been made, and as result the tunnels
themselves are very warm. No better
waters for bathing can be found any
where.
