AMONG THE MINES
sAYRE MINES

From Robert Sayre, manager OIL
the Sayre interests, we give a sum-
mary of several OF their mines that
are now great producers:
The Pike Leasing company, operat-
ing on the Burroughs vein in the
Newhouse tunnel level, 700 feet west,
have opened up in the breast of
drift streak of solid smelling ore
2 feet wide that assays from $15
to $25 per ton. This ore is found
some 1,400 feet beneath the surface.
On the Concrete mine, the leas-
ing pool have finished all surface
work, and repairing of machinery and
building, retimbering shaft, ETC., to
the water level, a distance of LOO
feet, and are now driving diamond
drill holes at the Newhouse tunnel
level to find the vein at this depth.
When this is competed, an upraise
will be started to connect with shaft
and drain the mine.
On the Lake mine the Moser later
al, on the Big Five tunnel level, has
/
and the breast shows 6-foOt streak
of low grade ore. The I. d. l.. Leas-
ing company is now engaged in
sinking the second lift of the winze
below the tunnel level that will
make their workings $500 feet from
surface. This second winze is being
sunk on a body of concentrating and
smelling ore Is feet wide and of a
good grade. This Is the deepest
workings known in the county and
confirms the Observers long con-
tended opinion, that the deeper you
mine in Gilpin county, tie larger and
richer our fissures become. On No.
1 winze both east and west levels
have 6-foot streak of high-grade
ore, and stoping is now being pros
ecuted both cast ard west of winze
on the same width of high-grade
ore.
Lake tunnel No. j. on the Virginia
canon road, have workmen engaged
in pulling some of the stopes that
were worked in the early days, and
are receiving good returns for the
lead and zinc therein contained.
Tunnels Nos. and 4. on the same
vein, are being driven ahead with
power drills, the power being fur
nished by the Two Brothers compress
sor.
The ingalls, Leasing company,
working the ingalls, mine ON Quartz
hill, have completed their crosscut
on the 240-foot level, driven to cut
to an adjoining VEN. They already
have a fine grade of concentrating
ore and the crosscut has not yet
reached the hanging wall, where a
body of smelling ore is supposed to
exist.
The lessees on the Togo mine have
completed sinking the shaft from
the 23O to the 300 foot levels and
opened up in these lower drifts a
shoot Of smelling ore that is already
&c feet long and from 3 to inches
wide of a high grade. Their mill
ore also makes a high grade OF con-
centrates that are being treated at
the Iron City mill.
Some of these mines are tie deep
est ever worked in the county. and
their size and richness at this depth
make the pessimist sick, who is for
ever harping that our mines play out
with depth.

Work OF installing tie flotation
process in the Argo mill, at the per-
tai Of the Newf ouse tunnel, was
started this week. Flotation has
been found to be a complete sue
cess in making high recovery of the
values in the ores. In the course OF
human events. this process may al
so be adopted by some Of the mills
Of Gilpin county.

MINING ACCIDENT

Tony Segata had the misfortune to
Bates shaft Sunday night. He was
engaged with others. in cleaning up
the shaft, when a rock fell on his
leg, breaking both bones. He was
removed to st. Joseph's hospital,
Denver, Tuesday morning where the
proper medical at.ention will be CIV
en- him.

STAR OF THE WEST MINE

The Star OF the west group OF
mines, recently acquired by~ Toledo,
Ohio people, and of which mention
was made in our columns last week,
wherein they have uncovered one of
the largest veins OF gold ore opened
up in the county for many years.
The west drift on the Star of the
West No. l, that was 8 feet wide
last week, has now opened to 10
feet in width, all being ~s fair
grade OF ore. The east drift on
Star of West No. 2 is also opening
UP in good shape as the drift pro-
crosses, the solid smelling ore be-
ing from 6 to inches wide with a
good sized streak OF mill ore lying
alongside. A specimen assay, re-
Gently taken from the breast of drift
returning $141.05 TO the ton in gold,
silver and copper. The east drift
on Star of West No. 1, is being
driven ahead on feet of mill dirt
and smelling ore mixed.
This property is immediately sur
rounded by such we'll known mines
as the Chase, Silver Dollar, Hamp-
ton, Pittsburg, East and West Not
away. War Dance, Clay County Coll
orado Carr, and many others, that
have produced millions of dollars in
the pest, and bids fair to rival any
of these in the production of ore.
This mine that has lain idle for
10 these many years, bids fair to
become one of the great producers
of the county il properly managed,
and verifies the old adage. that
gold is where you find it,
Mining Is a business, and very
big business as we'll as profitable
business, when properly managed.
One OF the greatest drawbacks to
mining that is daily being protected,
would not be tolerated in any other
line of business. An eastern man
OF means comes among us, purchas-
es what undoubtedly would be a
good mine if properly handled, but
he has perhaps a friend or son whom
he is anxious to give a job, and who
perhaps never saw a mine and can
not tell white iron from sylvantte.
The history of the county is re-
plete with this class Of mine man.
ayers who have not only brought
failure to the owner, but a black eye
to the county. The mines who have
for managers, those who have spent
years of labor underground, and are
familiar with mining in all its phases
are generally successful, while those
owners who depend on management
by incompetents fail, and mining
is then heralded as a risky busi-
ness. The management of this great
group of mines were wise enough to
select their local managers from the
class that have been reared IN the
mines and are familiar with classifi-
cation of ores. etc., that goes far
to make properties dividend payers.
Giilpin county contains many mines
that If properly managed, will COM
pensate the operators many fold.

The report of the City Mission Su-
perlntendent for the months of July

of old shoes and one pair Of new
shoes we're distributed and groceries
given to the needy ones 16 times. Coal
was given one time, milk and ice two
times, and a new pair of crutches were
given one man. Physician and medi-
cine was secured for two families and

The work done by Mrs. Peddicord al
the Mission deserves a great deal Of
