Lincoln Is Active

Endlining the Fairview and the Mel
son properties on the east is the fa-
nous Lincoln group, a veteran of early
territorial days. The Lincoln has pro-
duced about 5000, 1000 worth of gold ore
and is apparently prepared to produce
a tonnage having a value far in excess
of that figure. The Lincoln ledge is a
continuation of the Tiger Gold ledge
and is being developed under mineral
conditions which indicate a long and
remunerative period of productivity.
The ore mined in former years had an
average value of $685. 1t was treated in
the 10-stamp mill on the property. Gold
values at that time ran as high as $12O
per ton. In this day of more efficient
large tonnage Of from SIS to 500 ore
exposed in the workings and on dump
can be handled at good profit. The
tailings dump of the old mill will like
wise prove remunerative when subject
ed to the oil flotation process.

thoroughly developed of Mr.. Murphy's
mining properties in Yavapai county,
has paid in dividends upward of $400,-
900. A short time ago the mine was in
spected and sampled by representa-
tives of the Guggenheims and the re-
suit is said to have been thoroughly
satisfactory. So satisfactory, in fact,
that negotiations for the sale of the
mine to the interests before mentioned
are we'll advanced. There is large
tonnage of from $25 to $50 ore blocked
out in the workings, while on the
dump there is a considerable tonnage
of from SIS to $40 ore. In early days
the ore mined plated SIS in gold to the,
ton and yielded $3.50 per ton concen
trates. The latter were packed to
Prescott and shipped to smelter. Gem
nell and Randolph, former Colorado
ans, are working over the old tailings
dump of the 2O-stamp mill on the
property. Their venture is said to be
very remunerative.

49S per cent Picked samples gave re-
turns of from $40 to $40 per ton, prin-
cipally in gold. The ledge, has a vary
ing breadth of from 40 to 100 feet. The
bands along the hanging and footwalls
have an average width of feet and a
gold value of from $4 to $40 per ton.
Nelson Will Soon Ship Ore
With the possible exception of the
War Eagle Gladiator group, the estate
of the Nelson Mining company is more
thoroughly developed than any other in
the north of Crown King basin. Within
short time ore shipments will go for
ward regularly to the Crown King MILL
AS a means to that end the company
from the mine to Crown King station
and is now constructing two 250ton
ore bins-one at the portal of the Nell
son tunnel and the other on the main
line of the railroad at Crown King sta
ton. The success with which the oil
flotation process in treating ores in
the Crown King mill is the reason as
signed for the decision to ship the Nell
son ores to that plant.
The lower, or main tunnel on the
Nelson has a length of 3,050 feet. 1t
has been in a we'll defined ore body
for the last 200 feet. The ore is said
to sample about $25 per ton across a
breadth of 5 feet. A shaft sunk a
depth of ESQ feet near the apex of the
mountain cut a 6-foot vein of $12 ore.
A prospect run from the bottom of the
shaft intersected three veins from to
feet wide which sampled about $40
in gold per ton. The lower tunnel will
have depth from surface of about
1000 feet when it is directly below this
shaft. Near the face of the tunnel a
cross cut is being run to tap the ex-
treme western, or War Eagle vein The
objective is about 140 feet ahead. In
the upper tunnel winse is being sunk
to connect with an upraise from the
lower, the depth between them being
about 240 feet. The winse is down IS
feet and is in pay ore. The property
has been sufficiently developed to dem
onstrate yielding possibilities equal
to the best mines of the famous Oat-
man field, and has a considerable ton
reduction.

Spring Green Values

Ed Block of Prescott, and associates

parallel vein to the one opened on the
latter At depth of go feet this vein
is from to feet wide, samples from
80 to rs ounces in silver, form 8 to Is
per cent in copper and from SO to So in
gold. The mineralogical indications
are favorable for the opening of a
large deposit of copper ore at depth.
Sidelining the Spring Green ledge
proper, on the same ground, is vein
from 2 to feet wide that holds aver
age gold values of $19 per ton. The

is being aggressively worked and ore is
going to mill with daily regularity.
The break of the ore from the lowest

been resumed and will continue until
the shaft has depth of $50 feet. At

War Eagle Gladiator

war Eagle. 0IaQIatof
The Gladiator group, of the War
Eagle Gladiator estate, owned by T. G..
and associates, has a production rec
ord of 100000 worth of gold bullion
| and concentrates. Mr.. Jackson has for
several years been in cnarge of devel-
opment work. Under his supervision
the ore bodies have been opened to a
depth of 500 feet. They have general
eral average value of $50 in gold per
ton. Ore is being mined with daily
| regularity and reduced in the COM
pany's 10-stamp mill. A tunnel is be-
| ing run from a site near the mill on
| Gladiator ground to tap the ore bodies
on the War Eagle group. The present
the endline of the War Eagle holdings
about 80 feet ahead.
After tapping several small shoots
of pay ore, the tunnel passed through
an extended area in which the forma-
tion is badly shattered and, at a point
1900 feet from its portal entered what
is known as the Hargrave ore shoot.
The latter has width of feet and an
average value of $50 per ton. Above
the tunnel level at this point there are
600 feet of backs, or stoping ground.
Under the~apex of the hill the tunnel
will afford 900 feet of stopping ground
in the War Eagle ore body. The vein
being developed parallels the Nelson
Fairview vein-the latter lying about
500 feet to the east, and passing
through both the Nelson and Fairview
properties.
Showing on the Fairview
The Nelson Fairview ledge traverses
the Fairview group for a length of 5000
feet. Development work to date has
been centered on the Fairview claim,
although sufficient work has been done
on the other claims of the group to
demonstrate the continuity to the
north of the vein and it's values. An
opencut on the Fairview ledge shows
for length of 80 feet three distinct
veins-one along the hanging wall,
another through the center and a third
along the footwall of the deposit. In
other words, the veins run with the
course of the ledge in what are termed
bands"
A tunnel has been driven along the
center vein, or band, for a distance of
225 feet. Near the portal the pay
streak was Is inches wide. In the
breast it is feet wide. A 50-ton ship

SPRING PROSPECTS FOR BUSINESS.
The continued good sleighing with
which we have been favored has en-
abled our farmers and others to bring
in their winter produce. Our docks
are now crowded with ties, wood, ETC.,
awaiting the opening of navigation,
aud gives promise of most active
business season. The Appleton u New
London Rail will soon be employed in
bringing to our port for shipment the
products of the rich country through
which it passes. our harbor is now
open, and has been during the winter,
stear.ers running regularly between
this port and Milwaukee, and several
small sail vessels have been making
regular trips. Our merchants have
never had so favorable prospects as
the present, and judging from the
above facts, Manitowoc will soon be
formidable rival to her sister cities
along the lake shore.

HAS KEEN EYE FOR BUSINESS
Probably Will Not Lose Much
BY the War.

The foibles of his ally John Bull are
even now not quite invisible to the
Frenchman. And the following story
of special constable, or volunteer po-
liceman, in London, is related not
without malice by Paris paper. Just
after the last Zeppelin raid, when
the orders against showing lights were
very strict, this special was on duty
in one of the suburbs. Every time
he saw a house that was letting its
lights shine too freely out of its win
dCws he knocked at the front door
and called the attention OF the house
holder to the rules in such cases made
and provided and TO the danger And
as in becoming a special constable he
had not ceased to be man of busi-
ness, he not only called attention to
the badly shaded light, but suggested
a contrivance for subduing the illu-
mination. This contrivance, he said,
he had tried in his own house with
the most satisfactory effect. All with
the most disinterested air imaginable
His next step was to draw from his
trivance ITSELF with the remark that
he had just happened to be carrying
1t home to a particular friend who
had asked him to procure it. The
result was that at the end Of his
tour of duty he had written down in
a little note book a couple of hundred
orders for the wonderful shade; which
meant that he was able to collect in
commissions, at the rate Of shil.
ling a shade, matter of G5, or $25,
or, to put it magnificently in French
coinage. 125 francs.
