EAST SIDE NOW
READY FOR ACTION

The big tunnel of the Mineral
Hill Consolidated is now in about
200 feet, with an enormous run Of
quartz that can hardly be included
in the six-foot width that is car
ried. Much sulphide is present in
the vein, yet free gold is encount-
cred more frequently than at any
point since the level was started.
The values pertain rather closely
to dark streaks of sulphide, similar
in appearance to the rich ores of
some of the deeper workings on
the west side.
The Mineral Hill people are for
tunate in having a regular vein of
increasing size to follow to the
known ore shoot, all accessible by
tunnel and under easy conditions.
The fabulously rich ore at the
Burr-Thomas shaft, which is yet
different in character from the black
sulphide noted above, will be reach
ed by this tunnel, and the tunnel
will also lead to junction with
other veins, similar in appearance
from which much is expected.
The machinery for the new COM
pressor plant is now all delivered
on the dump, being assembled, and
| by another week should be in
place, under roof and with all con-
nections made. ready for starting.
1t might be noted that the Min
eral Hill corporation is far in the
lead of any other owning company
in the district in the matter of
straightforward company develop
ment. When the consolidation was
effected, thereby securing about
IT'S acres of ground, the company
bought in nearly all the leases that
were at work and started in for
careful development on it's own ac-
count.

BRIGHT VIEW OF PROBLEMS.

The ability of always seeing the
bright side or shining up the dark
one is a blessing to the person who
possesses the power, as well as to
those with whom he has to do.
1t changes our daily struggle in the
performance of duty in playing the
joyful game of life. Instead of the
home being a place of grumbling
and growing it becomes a place
of laughter and song. Wrinkles
will not come so soon upon your
fair countenance. To live daily
with sunbeams flowing from the
heart is a trick that may be learned
by Everyone with a little patience,
determination and daily practice.

new TOWN AND
CAMP IS BOOMING

Conditions at the camp of Car
roll continues to improve. The
shaft on the property of the Gold
Basin Mining company encountered
water at the 70-foot level The
presence of water has not altered
the character of the ore or changed
the value, which continues to be
high-grade shipping, Ore is coming
from the camp to Austin for ship
ment to Salt Lake by every team
that will take a load. The returns
from shipments heretofore made
have all been satisfactory
Progress at the shaft will be
comparatively slow now, for lit
tie time, until the power hoist is
installed This is nov being put
in place.
w. W. Wishon, who has purchas-
ed fifth interest in group of
ten claims, owned by Borrego, Nc
Glynn and Jones, is confident that
this property will be the second
shipper in the camp. Work will
start at once on this property.
Outsiders are in the new district
with representative after mining
property. C. E. Kenney, represent
ing Los Angeles people, has bonded
two groups from the Watts and
Charles Carroll. These are the
Tellurium claims and the Valley
View. The agreement with Kenney
protects all the leasers who had
started work or applied for blocks
on the two groups. Ten leases were
signed up this week and work will
soon be commenced at this num-
Der of new places.
NJ. Kenney, speaking of the new
camp said it is simply great, and
that the best thing about it, in
his mind. is the fact of wide dis
tribution of naturalization. All the
district needs is opening up.
Last Wednesday, E. A. Julian and
Charles Starr, representing George
Wingfield, visited the camp, accom-
panied by George Watt and w. w.
Wishon. They bonded a property
adjoining the Gold Basin Mining
companys holdings on the south.
Mr., Julian was decidedly impressed
with the possibilities of the district
and will return in few days to
make comprehensive study of it.
The Wingfleld deal and the Ken
ney deal are the only ones that
have been made during the past
week. But there have been
number of men after the O'Brien
property and it is possible that a
deal for this has been, or soon will,
be made. Austin Reveille.
