TINTON TIN MILL
IN OPERATION.

The milling plant of the linton
Mining company, in the Niger Hill
district, is now in operation. having
been started up for a test run and
for the purpose of demonstrating
that a profitable saving can be Of
fected through the process In use
there. At the present time they are
not running full capacity. but are
putting through from IS to 10 tons
Of rock per day. That they are max

Operation.
The rock is being reduced by
means of rolls and from the passes
through jigs and over Whitley con-
centrating tables. Although this syi
tenn is said to save sufficient cassit-
erite to make it a paying proposition
on the grade Of milling ore, which
, contains about one per cent tin. still
there is said to be a small loss oi

tion will be made to the equipment
Iof the plant.

showing a vein fifty feet wide, of
pay ore. Another vein was dis
closed east of the first which was
equally rich. The two veins are
from fifty to seventy-fve feet a part
and it is expected by mining men
that the two will come together one
big vein. Some experts predict an
other Homestake, while none who
have examined the mine have any
thing but the highest praise for the
property.
In May, of this year the owners
built a shoot down the west side of
the mountain and took out one hun
dred tons, which showed upwards
from three dollars free milling. The
owners then fell into wrangle and
the temporary dissatisfaction of the
men to make them a reasonable Of
fer for the property. This offer re-
suited in the deal which was closed
yesterday.
1t is understood that the ore Is of
such a nature that it can be operat-
ed very cheaply. The properties are
situated upon the railroad. There
is a water right at the door and a
working shaft 1876 feet deep to the
water level. The vein has been trac
ed for one and one-half miles and
the assays run from the lowest ore
in the ledge, which assays eighty
cents to the richer ore in the vein
which assays twenty dollars.
Indications are certainly good for
a bright season at Keystone. The
columbia mine, owned by Denver
parties, is opening up beyond all ex-
pectations, and together with the
rich showing of the Con Liston and
Juniper, should help to make an ac-
tive summer at the camp.

Deerfield will probably form the Gen.
ter point of their operations. The
company has secured options on the
following bars that have for years
been used for agricultural purposes:
The J. A. Miller ranch, the Matt
ranch and the Musser ranch. The
promoters are Robt. Seholt and Col.
Miller, who is interested in the Cas-
tie Creek Placer Mining company
near Mystic. This year the company
will make the borings to deter
mine the depth of the graval bed
and its value per cubic yard in
placer gold. If the values should
prove sufficiently high so that the
ground can be worked at profit
the company will put in dredge
next season.-Hill City News.

Rapid City Men Sell Holdings.

Some six years ago, Peter Duhamel
Mike Quinn and Fred Holcomb
bought $4,000 acres Of forest land In
Cuba, about forty miles from San
tiago. The land is valuable because
of its rare timber, but at that time
was bought at very reasonable
price. Last night Mr.. Duhamel and
Mr.. Quinn, accompanied by Judge
McGee went to New York to close q
deal with some eastern parties for
this land. The fiugres for the land
sale are large, but could not be as
certained.-Rapid City Guide.

THE GROWN MICA NINE.


The Crown Mica mine at Custer
has been secured by the Westing-
house Electric company and makes
five mines this company is now oper-
ating in that vicinity. The Crown
has been worked for the past thirty
years and was the largest mica pro-
ducer in the country until the West
inghouse company begun extensive
operations a few years ago.
Several months ago it was thought
a deal was practically consummated
for this valuable property when it
was thrown into litigation by sud-
den turn. 1t was owned by the
Chicago Mica Company and trouble
developed after their attempt to pat
ent the ground. Their application
for a patent was contested and a
delay was caused. During the time
their application was on file no as
Isessment work was required to hold
their rights. Finally their claim
was rejected and according to other
claimants they failed to resume the
assessment work. 1t was then that
w. ]. Bowles located on the Crown
and when the Chicago Mica COM
pany attempted sale last spring
they could not give clear title and
the Westinghouse refused to buy a
lawsuit.
The matter has now been settled
by the Westinghouse purchasing sub
ject to the result of the suit. Should
Bowles win the company will pay
him a certain amount, and should
he lose the Chicago parties will ben
eft by the sale. The litigants have
agreed that in the meantime there
will be no interference of the oper-
alton by the Electric company:
Settlement of this deal will bring
many advantages to the town OF
Custer. In addition to putting more
men at work it will result in fine
power plant located here. The West
inghouse company was about to be.
gin the construction of an electric
power plant at Custer when litiga
tion began. 1t is now expected work
on this plant will begin within thir
ty days.
The plan of the company is to Pre-
duce all the power needed at thei
various mines in Custer where Goa
and supplies can be conveniently de
livered, and lines will be built u
the various mines in different direc
Itions. The company designates thes
by numbers, i, 2, 3, 4, and S. Lo
cally these are known as the Ney
York, White Spar, Mckinney an,
the Crown. Business houses an
residences of Custer will be furnish
ed with electric light when thi
plant is completed. One branch viii
run to the No. mine in the direc
tion of Sylvan Lake and Mr.. Carol
expects to extend this and light tn
hotel and grounds of Sylvan lax
from this source. At present Sylvia
Lake is lighted with a private elet
trio plant as well as an aceteylen
system.
The Westinghouse payroll ha
been about $4,000 per month
With the addition of the force net
essary at the Crown, and includin
expenditures for wood and other su
plies the activity of the concern
worth about fifteen thousand pc
month. At the New York and tn
White Spar three eight-hour shift
are maintained.

GOLDEN REWARD PUTTING
THROUGH 1SO TONS DAILY

The Golden Reward Mining COM
pany is gradually increasing its
force of miners at the Bald Noun
tain mines and is now taking out
for shipment to its Deadwood plant
180 tons daily. The grade is said
to be very good, somewhat above
the average of the past. The make
up of the mine working force is be-
ing gradually changed, with a view
to putting on better men than some
of those who applied for jobs, after
operations were resumed, following
the shutdown.
