JOHN EHLE SECURES
 FINAL PAYMENT ON CLAIMS

Final payment of 5000 on the pur- chase price of the Logan group of mines was made yesterday to John H. Ehle by the Logan Copper Company. The four claims comprising the group are located in the Skull Valley mining district, three and a half miles north east of Skull Valley station.
 Since purchasing the claims eighteen months ago a shaft has been sunk to a depth of l6O feet. Work was aban- doned last year. F. D. Barr, a direct or the company, is now in the east ar ranging to resume sinking in the shaft. The plan of development eontemplates sinking the shaft to a depth of 500 feet and the tapping of the series of lodges covered by the locations from this depth by crosseuts.
 The equipment includes a large hoisting plant and tolls and appliances necessary in a mining camp.
 The property is advantageOusly To- eated for operation the entire year. The winter snowfalls are light. The elevation as the same as this city so that the summer months are not as hot as in the lower attitudes. A good wag- on road of easy down grade connects the camp with the railroad station in Skull Valley.

FINK SILVER MINE IS
 BONDED FOR s25, ,ooo

PARADISE, Feb. 24.-The Fink silver property on Silver Creek was bonded Tuesday by the owners, Albert Fink & Shaw Bros, to s. S. Suplee and J. P. Ewart, of Douglas. The sale price agreed upon is s25,OOO, under terms of bond and lease covering period of IS months.
 Shipments to the Copper Queen shelter are to be made, and to this end work will be commenced the last of the present week. Already mining timbers, lumber, and other mine and camp accessories are eitneT at the camp or on the way from the station at Rodeo, and there will be no delay in the beginning ,of operations.
 It is planned to make shipments from the 100 level of an old 160-foot shaft The shaft, long since abandon ed, will be timbered and q station cut. Drifts will then be run in both diree- tions and ore taken out for shipment. The vein increases from s inches in width at the surface to 3ls feet at depth of l6O feet, its width being -7a feet at the 100 level from which ship ments are to be made.
 Suplee & Ewart expect to make ship ments at the rate of about two ea=s- per month.
 It is not known what values are eX- pected, but as no assays lower than SIP ton have been received, the les sees expect to ship at a profit as they figure that s or s6 per ton will cover all expenses. Returns showing from 200 10 300 Oz. in silver have been ire quent, and one assay reported gave 37S oz. in silver, II per cent copper, and a trace in gold. The principal values are always silver, and MT. Su- pee, one of the lessees, who is a prac tieal miner of many years experience, insists that they will always be silver he claims that there is no evidence lCuh-nS tO ShOH NOppCA NCu-N HANNS'iA mate at greater depth.
 The Fink group consists of three full claims and a fraction, situated in the fOothill belt about three miles east of Paradise. Ore occurs in a quartz ite gangue, in lime. Contacts (should they be reached-tney do not occur at shallow depths) would be usually be- tween lime and lime, or between lime and porphyry, also. A prominent dike of quartzite occurs on this property. It extends from southeast to north west, and can be traced nearly all the way to the Savage and the May, which are silver properties like the Fink.
 In 1881 two profitable carload ship ments were made from this property. It possesses considerable development work, the most extensive opening be- ing a shaft 225 feet deep. It is gen orally conceded to be one of the most valuable properties in the district, though only partially developed.
 On the Early Bird property, which consists of eight claims adjoining the Savage, LA. Yewandowski, the own CT, has recently done some work. This includes the sinking of a 10-foot shaft to a depth of 20 feet, resulting in the disclosure of 21a inches of silver-eOp per ore.
 It is proposed to do some more work on this group soon.
 Two feet of copper glance ore was encountered recently on the Willie Rose at a depth of but five feet. The ore is in the lime, there being no walls nor contact.
 This showing is on No. 2 claim, about 250 feet north of the 53-foot or main shaft on the same claim.

THE JEWISH PAPER.

Speaking seriously it would seem
self-evident that every Jewish man
and woman should be a subscriber to
at least one Jewish journal.
The Jewish paper is the champion
of the interests of the Jewish people.
1t is more than merely a medium of
communication by which the social
events of the community are chron-
icled. A reputable Jewish paper keeps
it's readers in touch with the work of
their fellows throughout the world and
stands ready at any time to defend
and promote the best interest of the
Jewish people, jointly or separately.

Every intelligent man and woman
knows that the daily press will not
take any special interest in the Jew
ish people and rightly so, for it caters
to all denominations, not to any one.
The Jewish paper is a guide, a
guard, champion, defender and a
sentinel; an instructor, an educator,
entertainer; a bond between men and
women OF Jewish faith a reflector of
their thought ard acts, and a stimulus
to larger, better work.
Every Jewish man or woman who
values his or her own interests will
help support one or another good Jew

providing for himself and his people
in the case of possible emergency,
