A recent visitor to Grass Valley district gives the following concerning what he saw. and learned there: The New York Hill -mine has reached the 1,300-foot level. The rock is constantly improving as the drift is pushed southward, and now pays $12 per ton. The first pay rock was worth but $2. The ledge is 24¢ feet wide. Good ore is obtained at the 1,000-foot level, cluding tributors, ninety men are now working on. the property. The sulphurets are worth $30 per ton. No mill has been erécted on the land, but there are good hoisting works. The New York Hill is connected with the new Rocky Bar by a drainage tunnel. The latter company has two principal lodes, and has spent the summer in developing the south, or Keliy,, shaft, which has been sunk toa depth of 250 feet. Apparently the North Star is ‘draining this shaft. A five-inch ledge of $20 rock is being worked. There are hoisting works at each shaft, and a 10stamp mill at the Kelly shaft crushes its own and custom rock. The old; ‘reliable Idaho; situated between Grass Valley and Nevada City, still sustains its reputation notwithstanding the fact that its asssessmerit has been reduced $200,000 since 1883. The incline is down 2,200 feet, giving a perpendicular depth of about 1,600 everything in the pay chute being crushed. Two hundred and twenty men are employed. The 35-stamp mill crushes 100 tons: of rock every. twenty-four hours. Sulphurets are zaved by the old blanket process, and the mill is equipped with very little modern machinery. But 34 of 1 per cent ofsulphurets are obtained from the ore. They are principally galena, and pay well. The ledge is now 24¢ feet wide and is tapering downward. Pelton hurdy-gurdy wheels furnish the motive power. They use for hoisting works, pumps, crushers, stamp, amalgamators and machine shop 350 inches of water, urtder a 550-foot pressure, thereby obtaining about 330-ho1se-power. Timber on Mineral Lands, It is not known by many who are interested that the Supreme Court of this State has decided that according to the Act of 1862 the timber on all mineral lands in the odd sections belongs to the railroad, and that a subsequent patentee of such lands takes no title to the timber. In rendering his opinion the Justice said: ‘‘The words of the grant are very broad. We all think that this judgment .will have to be affirmed. The language seems-to_be—about—as broad as it can be: that ‘the timber thereon is hereby granted.’ ”’ the railroad company has the ownership of all timber on odd. sections. The Central Pacifie company has not howéver objected to the miners cutting and using such timber as is necessary in the operations of the mines on the lands. It has generally been ecnceded that the miners were at liberty to appropriate so much timber. as they needed for hoisting works and timbering tunnels and shafts. ed An unsuccessful attempt was made to roba stage near Silver City, Nev., Monday. ‘Sorry Maple, Marble Top Set, ‘}at Tracy’s.

Another tunnel has just been run to the ledge 200 feet below the present workings. The ore is of medium to low grade and the daily crushing is twenty-four tons. This is above the average amount of work for eight stamps, but here the stamps weigh 1,000 pounds, instead of 800-pound vost as is customary. An Alleged Counterfeiter. The trial of M. C. Thomas, a young man charged with attempting to pass a counterfeit dollar at the store of Geo. E.

Rathbun, Paul Quick, Sr., John McArthur, Ed. Harry, Joseph Faull,: John Jepson, A. Stenger, John H. Keller, T. H. Moore, A. M. Wickes, C. Conaway. District Attorney Long appeared as counsel for the People, defendant being represented by Little & Shurtleff. At this writing the learned counsel are ‘making their arguments, the taking of testimony having been concluded at 3:45 o’clock p.m. Those outsiders who have listened to the trial say the jury will not convict. _>-—_—— : Fun fer the Old and Young.

A recent visitor to Grass Valley district gives the following concerning what he saw. and learned there:

The New York Hill -mine has reached the 1,300-foot level. The rock is constantly improving as the drift is pushed southward, and now pays $12 per ton. The first pay rock was worth but $2. The ledge is 24¢ feet wide. Good ore is obtained at the 1,000-foot level, cluding tributors, ninety men are now working on. the property. The sulphurets are worth $30 per ton. No mill has been erécted on the land, but there are good hoisting works. The New York Hill is connected with the new Rocky Bar by a drainage tunnel. The latter company has two principal lodes, and has spent the summer in developing the south, or Keliy,, shaft, which has been sunk toa depth of 250 feet. Apparently the North Star is ‘draining this shaft. A five-inch ledge of $20 rock is being worked. There are hoisting works at each shaft, and a 10stamp mill at the Kelly shaft crushes its own and custom rock. The old; ‘reliable Idaho; situated between Grass Valley and Nevada City, still sustains its reputation notwithstanding the fact that its asssessmerit has been reduced $200,000 since 1883. The incline is down 2,200 feet, giving a perpendicular depth of about 1,600 everything in the pay chute being crushed. Two hundred and twenty men are employed. The 35-stamp mill crushes 100 tons: of rock every. twenty-four hours. Sulphurets are zaved by the old blanket process, and the mill is equipped with very little modern machinery. But 34 of 1 per cent ofsulphurets are obtained from the ore. They are principally galena, and pay well. The ledge is now 24¢ feet wide and is tapering downward. Pelton hurdy-gurdy wheels furnish the motive power. They use for hoisting works, pumps, crushers, stamp, amalgamators and machine shop 350 inches of water, urtder a 550-foot pressure, thereby obtaining about 330-ho1se-power. Timber on Mineral Lands, It is not known by many who are interested that the Supreme Court of this State has decided that according to the Act of 1862 the timber on all mineral lands in the odd sections belongs to the railroad, and that a subsequent patentee of such lands takes no title to the timber. In rendering his opinion the Justice said: ‘‘The words of the grant are very broad. We all think that this judgment .will have to be affirmed. The language seems-to_be—about—as broad as it can be: that ‘the timber thereon is hereby granted.’ ”’ the railroad company has the ownership of all timber on odd. sections. The Central Pacifie company has not howéver objected to the miners cutting and using such timber as is necessary in the operations of the mines on the lands. It has generally been ecnceded that the miners were at liberty to appropriate so much timber. as they needed for hoisting works and timbering tunnels and shafts. ed An unsuccessful attempt was made to roba stage near Silver City, Nev., Monday. ‘Sorry Maple, Marble Top Set, ‘}at Tracy’s.

Another tunnel has just been run to the ledge 200 feet below the present workings. The ore is of medium to low grade and the daily crushing is twenty-four tons. This is above the average amount of work for eight stamps, but here the stamps weigh 1,000 pounds, instead of 800-pound vost as is customary. An Alleged Counterfeiter. The trial of M. C.
