MADIzEILE MINES 81
HAVE GOOD PROSPECTS
(Frsa rrsday's Da!.yl


While visiting in the city. yesterday
from his mining camp In the sierra
Prietas, George U. Young gave brief
but Interesting review Of the proper.
ties Of the Madizellc Mining company,
with which enterprise he has been
identified from the beginning. He be.
lieves That he has developed the prop.
osition into one that the near future
will demonstrate az one Of the most
attractive enterprises in the county,
and bases this belief on what is prae.
tieally in evidence on the many claims
worked, and does not resort 70 theories
or speculative channels 20 uphold the
rating that can be substantiated by ey.
animation.
Associated with tnis mining enter.
prise there has been given little or no
publicity in the past three years OF its
working. This course has prevailed
mainly for the reason that the zone
selected by Mr.. Young in the initial
working Of the many locations held by
the company, WIS backed by excellent
meteorological conditions prevailing on
the surface, and accordingly the trend
Of the work was directed principally
TO a thorough system Of practical pros.
pecting Of the ground.
That the wisdom Of the past work
given is justified is shown az the close
of three years Of. jealous and method
zeal operation. There has been a total
Of over 5000 feet of development
done, and as depth is given the con
di,ions are decidedly flatteripg. and IL
may consistently be said that the
group can be placed in an avenue Of
supporting bona fde mines.
At the termination Of practically
each days work. there is given hand
some returns in ore showings. and re-
Gently one shot brought down over
5000 values in gold ore. Work has
been carried ON on this group constant
ly and in the face Of the recent fnsn.
cial depression, not day has been
lost. Improvements of permanent
| character have been made on tine sur
face, aud during the visit Of Mr.
Young yesterday ne outlayed further
sums in ordering ear load Of pipe, q
large supply of coal for the coming
winter, FIRE plugs, pumping plant mad
| other utilities, all Of which give 70
the enterprise stability. and which
are backed by what the mines. Of tb'
company show.
II has been the purpose OF the man
agement to adhere strictly 10 the line
of development and no reduction Of

Attached to the operating of thu
particular belt, interest is shown in tn
results given on this group, maini,
for the reason that the Madizelle poo

pendent nature. Until they entcre
that zone nothing whatever was don
to explore the region and what cap

men Of muscle only. Conditions bav
changed in the past few months, I'm
on either side Of Madizelle ground e

get into that belt. The company
favored with a financial regard OF th
