MANY FILE NOTICES.
Recorders Office Handles Big voiume
of Mininq Claim, Business.

Notices of intention to hold mining
claims have been pouring into the Of
fee of County Recorder Harry Rog-
ers during the past week. Like pay
ment of taxes, owners of claims hold
off until the last few days before
filing their notice and as result. the
recorder finds his hands full on The
last days of the year.
While the exemption law was pass
ed late in the season, many claim
holders took long chance and waited
foI favorable action. Others, some
what fearful that congress nigh. 'ee-
bate the measure until after New
Years, went ahead and did the re-
quired work and as result are fling
proof Of labor instead of a notice Of
intention to hold.
Under the law it was necessary to
file notices Of intention to hold be-
fore the old year passed, while proof
of labor and filings may be accepted
at later date.
1t is most probable this will mark
the last attempt to exempt assessment
work. as the struggle which ensued
this year indicates that such bill In
the future would have hard shedding.
With cost OF materials and supplies
still mounting, prospectors are hard
put to keep up their end Of the game
and the release from the assessment
" ork this year was very welcome.

TO the we'll known Nellie Mineral
Point vein in long crosscut driven
on his property. The tunnel has now

Mr. Swinerton has owned a group
of claims there for many years and

The recent shipment of car of
high grade, hand sorted ore from the

With approximately 30 feet yet 10
drive the crosscut In order to reach
the vein on the 300-foot level. the
work at the property of the Lookout
Mountain Mining company on Pine
creek in the Wardner district, is at
tracing unusual attention at this
time. Two carbonate stringers, five
feet apart, have just been crossed,
one about 10 inches and the other
five in width, carrying values in sill
Yer, lead and copper. These string
ers are parallel to the main vein, cut
ting directly through the quartzite
and indicate strongly the nearness of
the vein on this level.
The Lookout vein, 35 to As feet in
width in the upper workings, is a
crushed zone of clean. pure quartz
lite, strongly mineralized, with
streaks and lunches of lead carbon
ate noticeable in the drift which ex-
posed the ore near the outcrop.

The property has been under steady
development for the past three years
and has been favorably reported up
on by number Of the leading min
ing engineers of the district The
carbonate character of the ore, its
marked similarity to the Caledonia
mine in the outcrop and ores expos
ed, together with the strength of the
ledge on the surface have all caused
the property to stand out prominent
ly among the developing mines Of the
Wardner zone.
The contractors on the property are
averaging a foot per day in the work
and expect to reach the vein within
the next GO days.
