These leases are on the Seven Troughs
Consolidated and the Signal Peak mining
properties, in Seven Troughs, New.
The vein Outcrops up the hill from one
end of the leases to the other. From de-

BY the liberal terms of the lease the
Bird tunnel is to be completed within six
months from the time the machine drills

lease extends twenty months beyond the
time of completion of the Bird tunnel, and
one year beyond that time is allowed for
clearing off the dumps.
The custom mill at Seven TrOughs now

CAMP OF SPRINGDALE
JUMPS INTO LIMELIGHT

Four feet of $500 ore, and twelve feet
that runs regularly at the rate of $fOt
per ton. is the latest description of the
Pioneer mine at Springdale. sixty miles
south of Goldfield, says the GoldfieId
Tribune.
Every day the property is visited by
the best known miners of the district,
whose reports are so enthusiastic that
others are tempted TO make the same
journey for the purpose of verifying what
seems an incredible wealth showered on
the owners of what was nothing more
than barren prospect a few months
ago.
The first lot of ore billed 10 Salt Lake
went out yesterday, and the indications
are that 1t will run 500 per ton across
the twelve-foot face of the drift. This is
the first shipment to Salt Lake, and 1t
is said that the previous intention to try
the new smeiter at Needles has been
abandoned The mine has forty men on
its payroll, and is sackfng every ounce
of stuff from the present level
On the Savage, Boston men are en-
Dloying two shifts sinking shafts that
will go down to the 250-foot level. The
property had been owned by Hermann

ago in Los Angeles, Just when he was
within reach of a fortune.

Joe O'Brien, who has visited the prop
critics in this district, says that the Pho

the Combination, when the ore was plas-
tered with gold He says that the ore is
so rich that quite an industry has been
established by the high graders.
Jack Davis, who came in yesterday from
the district. says that the Mohawk will
have to look to its iaurels before the

What We Have
Done and
Intend to Do

The accompanying cut will help to a
full understanding Of what has been
done and what it is proposed to do on
these leases.
In the 1OO-foot tunnel lat the readers
right and on the Eureka lease)
ore has been encountered in the vein
at a depth of IS feet from the surface
outcroppings. An eight-inch streak of
it assays $42 gold per ton. Two feet Of
It assays SO per ton. Five feet across
the face Of the ore assays $S2 per ton.
Drifting in this tunnel is proceeding
to reach a point where a surface assay
of Dec, p shows 1884 gold and 4S2
ounces silver. The ore is being sorted
as the work goes on.
The Bird tunnel Cat the bottom Of the
drawing) has been driven in 600 feet,
and has attained a depth of 100 feet. 1t
is following the vein. and is IN THE
ORE, which is improving in quality and
quantity all the time.
A further extension Of this tunnel of
about 800 feet will give it a depth of
375 feet under the point where the short
tunnel taps the ore. Any one who IN
derstands mining will know what to
expect at depth Of 375 feet under a
point on the vein which shows assays
of S42 gold at 70 feet depth.
This is not a get-rich-quuck scheme
for the promoters. Each company has
been Incorporated for 10000 shares.
Every share of stock that has been is
sued represents value received to the
company, The proceeds of every share
sold go toward the legitimate develop
ment Of the property. There is not a
salaried officer connected with the
companies.
