Tyro Contract.

This week the development com pany operating the Tyro group of mines let a contract to R. J. Hutchi- son covering large amount of drift ing on the vein from the tunnel level. Mir. Hutchison departed to the mines with a force of ten men yesterday to begin the work.
 The company is now working thir- teen or fourteen men on development and have done large amount of work. A holster is to be put on the main shaft and drive it below the water level. More than three thousand feet of work has been mapped out by the corporation holding the option on the mines

Big Ore in Prosperity.

Report comes today that the Pros perity adit drift has opened a big body of zinc ore in that property close to the intersection of the Golconda. The drift has reached a distance under the mountain of about 900 feet and a vertical depth of nearly 800 feet. At this point the big zinc body has been entered about twenty feet, the ore running over 50 per cent and filling the drift. How much wider the ore body is is unknown until a crosscut is driven through the vein. From the adit to the breast numerous bodies of ore have been cut, many carrying high values in gold, silver and lead, but not until the present time has an ore body of the promise of this one been found. It is now expected that the ore body will continue to the main ore body of the GolcOnda. The ore body in the Golconda is the same in general character to that opened in the Prosperity and the great ore bodies will be operated together. It is also the opinion of our informant that the ore will also carry good values in gold and silver.
 In the years gone by the Prosperity was one of the big producers of the Todd Basin section, having an ore body nine feet thick that gave average results of 22lS per ton in car lots. When the ore reached the point be- tween wind and water it decreased in value and no effort was ever made to follow it below the water level. It is the general belief that the ore will be found richer.than that in the oxidized zone when the permanent water level is penetrated. The vein is large and the ore shoots are very long. John Boyle, jr., who is operating the prop erty, is certainly entitle@ to great credit for the manner in which he has kept the development going on this property and is sure to make fortune from it.

Gro Plata Being Unwatered.

The big Cameron pump has drained the water from the 100 foot shaft of the Orc Plata mine to allow of repairs in the maIn shaft. As soon as these repairs have been made the pump will be moved onto that shaft and the work of unwatering the property to the 2SO level will be carried on. It is expected that the pump will have small difficulty in getting the water down and that by the first of June work will be under way on develop ment. There is big tonnage of ore in the dumps and stopes of that prop erty, but there is more of the rich ore for which the property is famous to be had in the unbroken ground below the old works. The mine is really one of the great properties of the county and O. B. Stanton, under whose direction the work is now being done, will soon prove its great worth.

Rich Discovery Near Juno.

This week William Stallsmith dis covered a vein of ore, near the old Juno mine, at Chloride, that gave re- suits of sos and 4OS silver to the ton. The vein is quite large, but the pay streak is about eight inches in thick ness. The vein at another point is four feet, the average of which is about l2S gold and SS silver to the ton. Mir. Stallsmith is working on the vein and is getting out considerable of the rich ore. The find is in one of the most prominent places In the district, being close in to one of the oldest mines of the camp. The claim has been run over by hundreds of pros pectors, but it was ordained that only Mr. Stallsmith should find the rich ore.

Reports coming in from Boundary Cone show that there is much excite ment there over the manner in which the recent strikes are showing up. A sample from the bottom of the shaft on the big strike of Vaughn Bros. & Go. gave result of 4,7OOS gold. The owners of this property are sinking two shafts on the vein and the show ing is immense. The richest ore talk en from the property is now said to be coming from the deepest part of the mine.
