JARBIDGf IN GOOD SHAPE.
Conditions Are Improving Steadily and
Outlook is Bright.

That general conditions in the camp
or Jarbidge are improving steadily
and that the outlook in a mining sense
was never better, is the opinion of
Don G. Bryan, superintendent of the
Buckeye property, and now engaged
on 500-foot contract for tunnel work
on the claims.
Mr.. Bryan in discussing the various
mines of the district said:
con the Buckeye, we are now in
about seventy-five feet, drifting with
the vein. We are taking out rock with
an average value of over $40 to the
ton from a vein varying in width from
three to five feet"
Mr.. Bryan has with him some splen-
did samples of this rock showing free
gold plainly The ore is a soft quartz,
very easy to work. but which will in
all likelihood harden with depth. The
vein is a true assure, outcropping in
several places up the face of the hill,
and number Of holes have been put
down to enable them to accurately es-
innate the extent of the ore body. If
the vein holds at depth, and there is
no reason whatever to suppose that it
will not, it is expected that mill will
be put in early in the spring. A force
OF six men is now being worked in
three shifts on the property
Mr.. Bryan is taking back supply
OF rails, air pipe and car, as well as
general winter supplies, and does not
expect to come out again until the
spring. The roads from Twin Falls,
he says, are in good shape and on the
trip coming out he passed about thirty
freight outfits going into camp. The
Deith road has been sadly interfered
with by inclement weather conditions,
he says, and the great bulk of the
freight now going into the district is
being shipped via Twin Falls.
George Wingfield, the Nevada opera
tor, has eighteen men at work on the
Success group, located about three
quarters of mile away along the side

John J. McNamara's Sentence.

cussed the case. 1t was pointed out
to him that the age of John j. McNa-

of IS years, which means nine years
