huia'S Big Cleanup.

| Mazuma, Seven Troughs district, New.
March 5.-B. T. Bogart, who is largely
| interested in the district, returned on
! Sunday last from a trip to Colorado, and
! left again for Denver. on Wednesday
morning. When Mr. Bogart left here a
/ month ago he had some properties for
/ sale, but on his return the sale was off.
I His experience on the outside convinced
/ him that there was boom coming to the
Seven TToughs, and he is now quite con-
/ tent TO hold his properties until he can
| secure money for their development, and
that he can do this he is thoroughly sat
isfied.
There are lot of US here said Mr..
| Eogart- who have been in Seven TrOughs
so long that we may have become dis
couraged with conditions But we have
| to go on the outside to appreciate where
We stand. The panic of the past two
years has left its mark on every city in
| the United States, AMI we cannot expect
| a movement in the Seven Troughs district
until there is move in the larger places
| was astonished to know that Seven
/ Troughs had been so widely advertised
| and that il was so well known. In Salt
Lake met several people from New York
and they were all very anxious to learn
| all they could of our district. They told
me that there was nothing spoken of in
| the way of mining i'm New York but the
Seven Troughs. one man in particular
whom I met was very DESTROYS of my
meeting friend of his from New York.
who was just putting through 100000
copper deal This gentleman was on his
way to Butte. but his friend wired him
to stop off at salt Lake to sec me, and he
remained there for three hours.
He also declared that Seven TToughs
was the only district spoken of in New
York and he said that he intended to
come here when he had his deal wound
up, which would be about the LIST of April.
He wanted to get hold of some properties
out here, he said, and was coming here
for that purpose. | met other gentlemen
who wanted to know all about the ac-
commodations here and they told me that
they were coming here to go into the
brokerage and promoting business.
The cleanup of the Wihuia lease, the big
producer of the Coalition mine, was made
on Monday and the result was in keeping
with the character of the ore that they
have been taking from the 375-foot level.
Time was allowed only for the treat
ment of sixty-one tons of ore and the
cleanup amounted to $500. This means
an average of 1923 ton, which Is
pretty good showing for mine in any
mans country In addition to this there
have been sent away several hundred
pounds of ore which averaged so a pound.
At the 31j-fOot level of the Wihuta
they are both drifting and stopping on
two different shoots of ore, and the stuff
that they are getting 9ut is the kind of
rock upon which they have just made the
run High grade rock occurs frequently.
and when it comes in it comes in good
punches. With regard to the two shoots,
1t is the opinion of mining men who have
been below that they will come together
at the next level. and If they do the
Wihuja will develop into a whale of
mine That they will come together there
seems to be little doubt.
The cleanup of the Wihuja was limited
TO make way for the initial shipment of
the Harris lease on the Fairview. The
ore from that property has been in tran
sit for several days past and there have
been taken from the passing teams rock
which has just simply slttered with gold.
The Harris lease is part of the holdings
of the Seven Troughs Mining company
and from the Fairview mine of this estate
there have been taken the richest rock
that ever came out Of the district The
Harris is on the Fsirview, and 1T is ex-
pected that the result of the first ship
ment will be in line with the cleanup of
the Fairview, and that means better than
500 ton
