Big Strike in La
 Plata Mountains.

The latest sensational strike in the La Platas is reported by James D. Caldon, veteran mining engineer, who has just returned from a regular trip of inspection to properties in that camp. Engineer Caldon has been mak- ing these trips to the La Plata noun tains for the past l7 years and is an authority on mining operations there. And it remained for that picturesque Cripple Creek operator of Portland fame, James Doyle, to again add laur- els to his past successes. Engineer Caldon says the new glory hole opened by Mir. Doyle shows the richest tel luride ore he has ever seen-and this is broad statement, considering the fact that Mir. Caldon has been in prac- tically every camp of importance in this country.
 The new strike was made at surface on the Columbus property, an old-time producer taken over by Mir. Doyle and hls associates couple of years ago. The shaft of the Columbus was full of water, and the Columbus company un. der the management of Mir. Doyle, has been driving crosscut tunnel to cut the shaft and relieve the workings of this water. A little to the north of the shaft an open cut was run for pros- pecting purposes, and it is here where the greatest strike in the history of the La Platas since the bonanza finds in the May Day has been made. The vein is eight feet wide, according to Engineer Caldon, who, by the way, has no official connection with the Columbus company, and shows rich values throughout. Several tons of the bonanza ore have been mined and sacked for shipment, and two cars of lower-grade material, with a value of hundreds of dollars in gold to the ton, will go to the shelter in the near flu. . ture. The statement is made that the new ore will be core-drilled to get its extent and richress. and it is freely predicted that the Columbus is des- tined to be one of the big producers of bonanza ore of the La Platas.

To Dredge Old Placer Ground.

A special to the Sacramento Union from Auburn says: One hundred and fifty thousand feet of lumber is being hauled to Poverty bar on the middle of the American river, near Butcher ranch. The lumber will be used in the construction of large mining dredge, which will be built by the Fl Dorado and Placer County Gold Min ing and Power Company during the coming fall and winter. The dredge,
 when finished, will be operated in the rich sand and gravel of Poverty bar, which is the property of the company.
 In the early days of river-bed min- ing, when sluice boxes were the means employed to get the gold. Poverty bar was famous for it's rich diggings, and late assays made show that the

Lookout Group of
 Mines is Leased.

The closing of negotiations for operating the Lookout group of mines on Slate creek, owned by the Lookout Mining company was announced yesterday by F. M. Murphy, the presi- dent, as having been consummated and the property has been turned over to J. A. Twiggs, William Hall and R. M. Hanson.
 These miners will begin develop ment immediately and their plans out line practical scheme of extensive mining. Considerable work has been performed by the Lookout people in recent years and large dump of high grade ore attests to the attractive underground conditions prevailing. MT. Murphy states that negotiations are progressing for the taking over of the we'll known Davis group in the same locality, and had not the embar- rassing provisions of the new mine lien law intervened, to his personal hhO"iOuSO oVlCl pIOpcTUltS throughout the county would have been under development. The high price of copper, silver at 64 cents and zinc at the highest figure ever known were attractive inducements for the leaser to enter this field, and under normal mining conditions Yavapai would have been prospering had not the iniquitous lien law wedge inter- vened to drive the mine owner and the willing investor further apart than ever. Other deals are pending in this vicinity, the outcome of which is prob lematical, under the existing and drastic laws enacted by the last legislature pertaining to mining under lease and bond.
