 The Granite Tunnel company has encountered a vein in the tunnel which pans free gold and is said 10 be fine milling material. The vein has been drifted on for a short distance and shows good average values. Produc- tion from this vein will begin soon h the meantime the breast of the tun- nel will be continued until the Yankee Blade, Washington and Othor veins are encountered.

Makes A Second Q
 Rich Discovery.

A Granite Colorado dispatch says:- A second discovery of DhenomeDally V rich gold ore is reported as having been made in the Belle of Granite mine early last week. The find was made in an old abandoned slope in the same part of the mine that produced rich ore 30 years ago, and it is believ- ed that the ore shoot which produced many hundreds of tbouSan6s of dollars at that time has been removed
 The vein at the point of discovery is five feet wide. in tbe middle of which is a small seam which a$$Iy, around 4,0O0S a ton, while the balance of the vein is milling grade. A simi lar strike was reported two weeks ago at another point on the vein, and since that time the management has block I'd out something over lOO,OOlS in ore. with DO disconLinuaDce of line vein or the values.

with the concentrations, and which should be operating this summer, will be an important improvement in not only still further reducing cost, but in also assuring the plants ample ton mage.
 Utah is probably unsurpassed among the copper mines of the world in ore reserves, having more than 125.0O0,- 900 tons available, or seventeen years supply under the maximum coneen- trator capacity of 21, ,rOO tons a day. which will be possible with the en- Engagements now under way in the plants at Garfield. This daily tonnage, when working under the above con- ditiOns, will mean an ultimate produc- tion of approximately 15O,0O0, 600 pounds per annum.
 It is interesting to note just what Utah can do with the entire coDcen- tratOr in operation, and under the ex- tremely low figure for copper of II cents per pound. Even assuming that the cost of production is the same as for last year ot cents per pound, Utah's earnings from Bingham Can yon properties alone would amount to 4,5OO,OOO per annum. This figure is exclusive of the dividends of Nevada Consolidated, which are received by Utah, and which at present amount to l.5OO, ,OOOS per annum.

big low grade mine that appeals to the experienced mining man and mill operator; and, as a general thing, it is the great lowgrade proposition which
 pays the most in dividends and whose production continues for years after the exhaustion of the rich mine.
 We know that high-grade ore ap- peals to the imagination and cupidity of the tenderfoot and to the pubic at large, aud that the inexperienced will go into raptureS over a few inches of exceedingly rich mineral; but, in the long run, the mine with vast bodies of milling ore in its workings will win out and maintain a paying basis long after the small vein of ship ping ore has become exhausted. It has been stated, and correctly so, that a foot of ore that yields from eos to sos a ton in the precious and baser metals, is not to be compared in value and source of profit to the eight or ten foot body of lOS and 25$ ore. In the mining of the small vein, but few men can be employed, while a large amount of dead work must be per formed in order to take out a small tonnage. In large zone of low-grade or milling ore, a small army of men may be employed in mining opera tions, and but little dead work is re- quired. Cross-cuts, upraises, drifts and winzes can be driven on the ore, and thousands of tons broken down and extracted at a nominal cost, and without the waste incident to the operation of a mine where Nature has deposited her treasures in small but rich veins.
 The investor, seeking a producing and paying mine, is generally much more favorably impressed with low grade proposition than he is with mine having rich ore, but in small bodies. Nearly all of the great camps of the west are, comparatively speak ing, low-grade propositions; the rich mines which nave made fortunes for their owners being exceptions to the general rule. Furthermore, the low grade mine is much better for camp than is a high-grade, small-vein pro ducer, as such mine necessitates the employment of more men, the erection of mills, smelters and reduction works, while more money is in circu- lation as a result, and the masses, ac- cordingly, are more benefited than if the camp possessed mines with small veins but of high value.-Salt Lake Mining Review.

The Utah Copper.

In commenting upon Utah Copper the firm of Thompson, Towle & Co.,, of New York, has the following to say
 The potentialities of the Utah Cop per property are enormous and few, if any, of the copper mines have before them such a bright future. If one analyses carefully the exact conditions under which the property is now operating and the conditions under which it will operate, it is seen that the future clearly indicates greater efficiency, greatly increased produc- tion and earning power.
 This mine, which has been produc- ing scarcely four years, from the date that the first section of the large con- centrator went into commission, has made a wonderful record, when one considers the difficulties which had to be overcome in placing on a producing basis property of this size. Despite the fact that the company has been working on ore lower than average grade, since operations began, an S. cent cost has been made. The de- crease in the grade of ore at Utah has been due to the inadvertent mixture of overburden, which has sloughed of and found its way into the steam shovel pit.
 Shovels are constantly operating on this overburden on both the Utah ground proper and the Boston Con- solidated, which lies further up the mountain, and this capping is gradual ly being eliminated and in time Utah will have bench after bench of clean ore exposed and available for mining. This clean ore means an increase in copper contents, greater recovery in the concentration, increased production and lower cost.

Highgrade Vs Low
 Grade Mines.

A quarter of a century ago when mining was comparatively in its in fancy in this western country, when business centers were few and far be- tween, when nearby camps of today were then isolated sections in a coun- try of magnificent distances, nothing appealed to the miner and prospector more strongly than highgrade prop osition. This, however, was not from choice, but owing to conditions then existing; to the long distance from market, to the lack of transportation facilities, and the high prices paid for labor and supplies, to say nothing of the inadequate milling and reduction methods then pertaining. Now, how ever, with almost every condition of that day and date reversed, it is the

throes of gold excitement that has
 caused said business men to turn from
 adding columns of figures and selling
 real estate or soda water to feverishly
 climbing sand hills and putting forth
 more effort at manual labor digging
 prospect holes than some of them have
 expended for many years in similar
 labor, says the News. On Thursday, hardly half of the prominent citizens
 were left in the city, the remainder being absent at the scene of the gold strike.
 The first news of the strike came from the gravel beds on the beach line which was being worked to sup ply the cement sidewalks being laid in Brawley. Some of this was pan ned out as an experiment and found to carry considerable color. Claims were immediately staked out and some little development work commenced, but the majority of valley citizens believ- ed the whole matter hoax until the gold was actually shown.
 Since tin can full of sand brought in by Jack Fogerty and Harvey Spur geon from the claims l5 miles east of Brawley and banned out Wednesday and was found to contain coarse gold in ample quantity, there has been a stampede from Brawley to the scene. The entire country in the vicinity not already located has been staked out. A rough estimate by experienced min CTS of the amount of gold carried is lOOS to the yard.
 The rich sand was found Tuesday when Fogerty and Sturgeon went out to stake out more claims.
 This sand secured by Mir. Fogerty came from a small hole dug three feet deep near the top of the beach line. The black sand appears to be in layers, the first one encountered being three inches thick. If this black sand can be found in sufficient quantity, the fortunate claim owners may have struck something as rich as the Nome diggings.
 Fogerty's claims lie little north of direct line east of Brawley, and with his friends, he has located the entire beach line to the point where it ends.
 The beach line consists of a com narrow stretch of land, el- evated perhaps 50 feet above the sur rounding country both east and west. It iS covered nth wash gravel such as encountered on any land adjacent to the ocean. A thousand theories exist for the presence of the gold, and probably any of them is as good a guess as the next Whether any bed rock may be found is also matter of nJecture, as little prospecting was done.
 Development work on the beach line will be watched with interest by every miner, as well as the claim owners who have se- cured locations. The property not be- ing closer than six miles to the nearest canal, the No. main, makes work of any kind difficult and costly. Brack- ish water may be struck almost any where at a depth of 75 to l25 feet along the high ground west of the No. 5 main, so that it is possible to secure a sufficient supply of water for experi- mental purposes from that source.
 Scattered over the desert east of the | first beach line are numerous evidences | of Indian camps, with broken pottery and simple utensils in abundance.-I Parker Post.

Her hand was at the heavy knocker
as she spoke. In moment the door
slowly opened, just as it had done
that night before in Washington. My
companion passed before me swiftly.

The wide ball gown of satin was gone,
