RICH Mines SOLD
ENGLISH SYNDICATE BUYS KAN
sAs AND BURROUGHS GROUPS
ON QUARTZ HILL.

Information in regard to the Quartz
hill properties which were consolidat
ed two years ago, awaited with few
erish anxiety since the merger was
effected. was released this week. A
cablegram was received last Friday
by Messrs. j. c. Jenkins and ]. e.
Lightbourn from H. Irving Jones in
London, stating that the terms made
by these gentlemen as trustees OF
the properties were acceptable to
the English syndicate he was nego-
tiating with.
The deal resulted in the sale Of
the Kansas group and the Burroughs
group for a consideration Of $780,
900. These two groups embrace about
20 claims located under the old pat
ent laws. but according to the pres
ent laws covering the width Of lodes
the ground would be reduced to
about five claims.
The principal mines of the group
are the Phoenix-Burroughs and the
Pease-Kansas. The mines are on the
line Of the Newhouse tunnel and are
located in the richest gold bearing
region Of the district Millions have
been taken out and had water
not interferred with parties who have
attempted to work various proper
ties of the group in recent years the
production would have been doubled
On both the Phoenix and the Pease
there are heavy plants Of machinery.
The properties will be worked from
the surface and the Newhouse tunnel
will only be used for drainage pur.
poses. Connection will be made with
the Phoenix shaft by lateral ex-
tended east from the tunnel.
The most cheerful feature Of this
welcome information Is the fact that
work on this big proposition is to be
commenced as soon as Mr.. Jones
can return from England. Just what
arrangements the company will make
as to working the mines, Of course
will not be known for perhaps a
month. 1t will be two or three weeks
before Mr.. Jones returns and not un-
til his arrival can complete informa.
tion be had. However, the mere fact
that this rich group of properties
has been transferred to a company
that will carry on extensive work
shows what is in store for Gilpin
county in a mining way.
Ever since the owners OF these
mines consolidated their interests
capital from the east and west has
been trying to make deal for these
properties. 1t was thought some
months ago that syndicate In
Cripple Creek would take over the
mines. The English people who have
acquired the group are men Of un
limited wealth and can spare the
funds for any amount Of develop
ment to make their mines immense
producers.

VIII be i'm charge OF the successiul
club members during the trip.
The plan has been very effective.
Each boy and girl. under explicit IN
giructions and careful superNls-
ion. is expected to earn enough
money to pay the expenses OF the
trip. While this educative journey
is in the form OF a prize. still II
places the burden OF inventlyeness
and thrift upon the individual stu
dent One boy is growing potatoes
another corn, one girl is making
cake. another salt-rising bread.
The club does not confine its ed
ucational efforts to any one line OF
products, but a large variety OF
products are admitted, the boys
working generally in the agricultural
field and the girls in the field o.
domestic science and home-making.
Nearly forty students are members
of the club and 1t is already Ger
tain that thirty Of these will by
September have saved the necessary
funds during one vacation to make
a trip to the national capital. The
educational value Of this cannot but
be appreciated when vacation Oh
this kind is contrasted with one ot
idleness and expenditure.
