After doing 1,160 feet of tunnel work
the owners of the Utopia mine, Cen
tennial district, have opened a large
body of ore that runs rich in gold.
A 12-foot vein of sulphide ore is be-
ing opened by William Chase, near the
base of the Snowy range, eight miles
from Centennial, that gives promise of
;ontrating ore that gives returns of
from $25 to $500 in gold per ton.
Work is to be resumed in the Helen
Gould group of gold claims between
the Utopia and Free Gold properties,
Centennial district. A 125-foot shaft
was sunk, but it drifted away from
the vein. Arrangements are being
made to run a crosscut from the shaft
to tap the vein. Considerable free
milling ore has been taken out that
runs as high as sos in gold per ton.
One of the most promising gold
strikes ever made in the Encampment
district is reported from near the old
Cox copper property. ]. E. Griffith
and Ed Martin are the lucky pros
pectors who made the discovery. Sam
pies brought to Encampment and ex-
hibited show coarse free gold in good
sized nuggets, and numerous paintings
show the values to be quite generally
distributed and some of the ore is very
high grade, it being possible to Sc
cure assays, by picking the samples,
running up to almost any figure.
The big gold dredging machine of
the Shoshone Gold Dredging Campany
has been floated in Wind river, near
Wahaba, and the machinery will be
| installed at once. The sand gives
values of from 25 cents to so cents per
yard, and there is enough gravel to
keep a dozen dredges working day and
night for quarter of a century. The
placer workings extend for a distance
| of eight miles above and below Wa
| haba. The company expects to make
| a big cleanup this fall after paying
| for the dredge and all her expenses.

ON QUESTION OF MANAGERS
Which Is More Capable, Bench or
PIaying?-Largely Matter of lndi-
viduaIs and Personality.

The discussion as to the relative
merits of a bench and playing mana
ger for a baseball team is again un.
der way.
II believe that before long all man
ayers will be bench managers" says
Hugh McBreen, treasurer of the Bos-
ton Americans. II think the game is
coming to that Baseball has gone
ahead so much and come to be so fast,
before long the manager will have all
he can do to sit on the bench and di-
rect the play without attempting to
gers must plan ahead, must be figur-
ing out the next play, and upon the
lines they are apt to lose sight OF
moves ahead they have in their minds
in the immediate duties of coaching.
"You see a manager coaching at
first base one minute and then situ-
alton arises that takes him over to
third base, and it doesn't seem to me
that he can make these moves and at
the same time plan as clearly as If
he were on the bench without any
thing to bother hip except planning.
Then, again, by sitting on the bench
all the time with the players around
him he is constantly getting their
ideas and finding out just what they
think of what ought to be DONE"
Now, it just happens that the Boston
Americans have bench manager
which may or may not influence Nc.
Breen's opinion; but at any rate 1t
is probable that the officials of the
New York, Cincinnati and Brooklyn
clubs in the National league, and OF
the Athletics, Detroit, Chicago and
Washington clubs, in the American
league would agree with him.

An old Quaker went into booksell-

Colorado
The Sunshine mine in Boulder coun-
| ty is producing good grade of milling
| ore.
The st. Paul mine at Red mountain,
in Ouray county, will resume opera
| ton soon.
The old Boston mine at the foot of
Sawmill hill, near Ward, is being op-
Grated again.
Martin Bossen, operating the Bald
Eagle property in the Ward district
reports prospects most flattering.
Whitmore & Mcdowell, who have a
| lease on the Dante No. shaft, Cripple
Greek, will ship about five cars this
month of milling grade ore mined
from a new strike.
Bartlett and Wood, who are leas-
| ing on the Richmond at Salida, in
Boulder county, are in wonderfully
rich ore, some of the high grade run
ming as high as 842 ounces in gold.
The strike recently made in the
Modoc mine, on Battle mountain, Grip
pie Creek, is holding up we'll and there
has been enough ore blocked out at
this time to permit heavy production
for some time to come.
A strike of considerable proper
tions was recently made in the Queen
Ann mine, located near Lake Como, at
the head of Poughkeepsie, in Ouray
county, where large body of good
grade lead-zinc ore was cut at a depth
of 500 feet.
From Red mountain in Ouray, it is
learned that Paul Walker continues
in luck with his Kansas City mine. He
has three feet of silver-copper-lead ore
worth about $50 ton. He is taking
it out and should ship steadily the
balance of the summer.
The Little Giant mill in Pony gulch,
Cripple Creek, is ready for operation.
The Little Giant has blocked out a
large body of low grade ore, running
from $2.40 to $5 per ton. The cost of
treating will not exceed 80 cents per
ton. 1t is estimated, while a recovery
of better than 80 per cent is expected.
The ore is highly oxidized and ideal
for the cyanide process.
What gives promise of developing
into an important discovery is re-
ported from the Rosebud property on
Democrat mountain, Georgetown. In
running drift on the Rosebud vein,
intersected 700 feet from the portal OF
the upper crosscut tunnel, streak OF
solid ore four to seven inches wide has
been exposed that assays as high as
200 ounces silver per ton.
