[he ledge is from three to five feat thick, and will shortly be openéd up on the 500 level at which poiat several carloads was taken‘out last Saturday. Superintendent Vincent naturally reckons that when the 500 drifts are ouce run the output will largely increase. ‘Twenty-two men are now employed aud more are to be put on. THR LONE STAR. ‘As heretofore annonneed, the Lone Star (better know as the Murchie) mine after standing idle for a number of years has been bonded for $25,000 (which is dirt cheap) to @ former resident of this city whose headquarters are now at Fan Francisco, Expert Ferguson has Voeien here for several days making an examination of the ground, and by his recommendation prospecting work will shortly be inaugurated. THE PROVIDENCE. This eld mine, famous for so many years as one of the biggest and moat reliable gold quarts claims inthe State, is now taking on a new lease of life and well posted miners prophesy that its future career will surpass ite past one in those attributes that are most devoutly prayed for by legitimate maliding inveators, Col, Davis, who is the local representative of the new syndicate ig possessiim, has about twenty men Smployed. On the 1250 level he has run 4 cross-cut west from the shaft a distance of 550 feet where was encountered the “back” or Champion ledge which has been followed south 200 feet and is now being opened up ready for stoping. As the old company only Worked down on this vein tow depth of 60\) feet, the new com havesiacks yoke af G50 feet upon it. peat bottoith of the shaft, which has . boon sunk an sdditjonal hundred feet within a comparatively recent time, giving it a total depth of 1350 feet, a drift of 600 feet te the south opened on another splendid bedy of ore aaid to be the continuation of the Merrifield’ ledge, and this is now being followed, ‘The big mill; which has been over hauledin every department and put in best of repair, and in which a six-foot Dodd water wheel has been substituted for the crude one formerly used, will begin ina few days to drop ita stam, “These pons at the Providence ‘are unquestionably the most important ever wadein the district, proving as do that our ledges hold their working value to a greater depth than has ever before been demonstrated in a prac way. thas always been contended by many that they did not oarry gold in paying quantties more than thousand feet dowa on their. dip at the utmost, but alter more than a year’s ston} labor and an expenditure of some §$70),000 the company “iow cperating the Providence has lished the rank fa). lacy of such @ contention, THE CHAMPION, ; The Champion is another of the dividend payers of this city, and it is also one of the “big” quartz mines of the coast. It gives a small army of men lucrative employment in its numerous departments, above and below ground. Its, shaft is a thousand feet deep aud there are e mythat add each their share to the steady flow of bullion. Superintendent Zeidtler has let a contract to Marsh Brothers for pany have acquirred by purchase and Propose to restore to its statusof a few years ago when it was a paying mine, ‘THE MOUNTAINEER. Sixty men are working in and about the Mountaineer mine, and that mine because of its natural richness added to Superintendent Dennis good management is not only turning out encugh gold to pay all these men liberal wages’ and to meet the many other expenses of conducting such an extensive property, but to give the stockhol Jers substantial and frequent dividends, Work is just now boing carried on at the 300, 400, 700 and 850 levels. The drifts at the 400, 700 and 850 are being driven both north and south from the shaft. Fifteen stamps have all they can doto ‘crush the large quantities of fine ore that are coining out, . THE NEVADA CITY, The Nevada City continues to. be ina highly satisfactory condition; Work is being prosecuted on the 100, 300, 400 und 500 levels from the north or new shaft on the hill, Ore of @ profitable grade is being extracted in such quantities as to keep the ten-stamp mill going all the time. ‘I'he ledge varies from two feet on the upper level to sixteen on the 500. An entirely new four-foot vein of good appearance has just bee. encountered in the face of the 400 drift. About forty men.are employed. During the past. year much dead work has been done in addition to that found necessary in extending and opening up the drifts, The drain tunnel, reaching from Deer creek through the Wyoming ground to the old shaft, a distance of 3000 feet, has been repaired and retimbered wherever necessary, and the old shaft, which is down 1000 feet, has been put in prime condition to a point 350 feet beluw the surface, where the tunnel connects with it. It is said to be Superintendent Shoecraft’s intention to re-open the ‘‘old mine” through this shaft next year, which will necessitate the erection of powerful pumping and hoisting machinery; and that the conditions and prospects fully warrant such a step is evidenced by the fact that that. portion of the claim has yielded such large quan: tities of gold in yeara gone by, and that work upon the ledge there (which has been well developed, leaving some large and rich ore bodies ready for stoping,) was suspended summarily by a former superintendent . the machinery then in use was not powerful enough for the service required, and the resources for purchasing a new plant were not available. .THE WYOMING, The recent resumption of operations at the Wyoming under direction of Superintendent Buffington is pretty certain to be attended with pleasing results to the owners who have heretofore made so much money cut of this property, and to the people of Nevada. City to whom it was for so long a fruitful source of ingome by reason of ite liberal disbursements here for labor and supplies. Mr. Buftington has force of men engaged in prospecting by u shaft on the southerly short time ago they struck a large and heavily mineralized ledge that is declared by practical and experienced» men who hav’ exaprined idvo gite every sign of making the Wyoming a more productive property than it wag in the palmiest days of its early highly creditable THK YELLOW DIAMOND, At the Yellow Diamond on Rush creek, & short distance west of this city, a tunnel is being run to cross-cut a promising ledge that has formerly been profitably worked by various parties who operated in aamall way near the surface. The ings covering hous :for vary powbrful latest reports fr.m the Yellow Diamond end-of the loeation near Deer Greek. A about 400 feet and will reach the main ledge inside of twenty feet. Some very rich spec'men ore was taken this week from a stringer on the hanging wall. THE MAYFLOWER. The Mayflower Company at Canada Hill have turee ledges. One of them has just been sunk on to a depth of 100 feet and the quartz taken out of it paid $35 a ton. A con'ract has now been let to run drifts both ways from the shaft. This is a sterling mine, needing only a féw thouzand dollars of dévelopmnent capital and a continuation ite present good managem:nt to make a big und ‘aimous property of it. THE NORTH BANNER. Sixteen men are employed at the North Banner, most of them on prospective work. Efforts are being mainly directed to developing on the 400 level the ledge which yielded such good results’ nearer the surface. Enough ore is being extracted to keep’the mill going about half the time, and to thus defray expenses. The North Bauner ig ‘all right, . you bet,” as che political shrickers say. THE EBAUGH LEDGE. Schmidt & Co. are diving a tunnel froin Deer creek to give 300 feet of backs on this good ledge. They are stayers and therefore pretty sure to reap a rich reward cvcntually for their labour. THE EAST BANNER. At the East Banner, (long known as the Foot ledge) a Park City, Utah, company are tuuneling to discover the dip of the vein and the location of the pay chute, © These points established they will next put up hoisting and pumping machinery and systematically develop their splendid claim. THY GOLD FLAT. Supegiptendent Skewes is opening the Gold t claim in @ methodical way that is certain to bring the best of results. He has developed some very goed ore, and a mill will be required soon. THE GREEN BROS: CLAIM. A San Fr party has bonded from the Green Brothers of Indian Flat a quartz ledgs near the Oro Fino location, and will prospect it thoroughly by sinking and drifting. ‘ THE GREEN MOUNTAIN. This claim is in Willow Valley district. It has u large ledge somewhat mixed with base matter and broken near the ap-x, but gaining -olidity with depth. It is being worked by a tunnel from Deer creek, and good ore is being extracted. Like many more of our mining propositicns hereabout, the Green Mountain eould be made an extensive prc ducer if its owners had the money to equip; it with machinery and open out its depths. THE SPANISH, The Spanish Company are pushing work at their claim on Wood's ravine, They are stoping on the first level and prospecting below that poiut. The five stamp mill is giving good returns. The company is not hnancially strong, and is going ahead in a slow but aure manner, $338. AT THE GRAVEL MINES. The Odin Company ame —.: 2. headway in opening their drift mine just northeast of the city. The new steam plaut is one of the best in the county. The pump was started Monday. It cleared the sump of water in twenty minutes—a thing it would have taken the pump formerly in use a week to do. The machinery is all on the ground and will soon be set up when the hoist will start. ©. Weisenburger is in charge of the building of the house to cover the machinery, and he is of course making a good job of it. On Tuesday an upraise to tap the channel was staried from the tunnel, and it is not at ell unreasonable to presume that by the time winter is over the mine will have taken a place among the nuinerous profitable ventures of this immediate locality. THK MANZANITA. At the Manzanita the tunnel being driven fur the center of the mountain is in 1000 feet from the foot of the incline, or to within 250 feet of the-center. It is contidently anticipsted that pay. dirt will come into the drift during the next hundred feet. Upward borings show’ that the bed-rock is pitching toward the mid dle of the ridge. The last raise (made at 970 feet in from the bottom of the incline)tapped waph gravel only twelve feet abuve the tunnel’s roof, THE HARMONY. Forty-two men are working at the Harmony. Gravel is being breasted 250 feet east of the main.tunnel, and the mill‘is crushing from thirty to forty tons every twenty-four hours, its capacity being about sixty tons a day, however. The gravel is crushed. very tine in_order to prevent the lows of gold. In the portion of the channel now being breasted a boulder 60 by 40 feet on top has come up into, the floer*ef the workings, taking the place of the bed-rock, and on this boulder the gravel is comparatively thin, Yet notwithatanding the presence of the boulder, the company expect to take something like $35,000 out of an area of ¢wo hundred feet square, and this amount will not oily liquidate the existing indebtedness, but also leave a snug surplus in tle treasury. The mill is run by water, and this motor power will soon be substituted for the steam machinery now used.in connection with the hoisting ‘rig, THE WEST HARMONY. At the West Harmony there is a force of 32-men. Gravel is being extracted hfrem @ point between the main tnnnel and the Tiptep claim which is the location next weat. The gravel is crashed in a ten-stamp mill that rans steadily. This mine, although a young one, 1s yielding more than enough bullion to pay our. ‘rent expenses, s 7 THR TIPTUP. Thig property, purchased not long ago by W. W. S:ow of San Francisco from Capt. Rapp and W. F. Eaglebright, is north of the Milliken ground aad adjoina the West Harmony on the west. Ite owner has put ins mile of good wagou £ i 4 read to.connect with the Blue Tent road and has also graded preparatory to putting up pumping and hoisting machinery. COLD SPRING AND FOUNTAIN HEAD, Tne Cold Spring gravel location adjoins the East Harmony on the east and is between the latter and the Fountain Head. By a tunnel run 1300 feet into ths Cold Spring ground a few yeara ago several thousand dullars were taken out. The face of thia tunnel is now ia the bed‘rock the natural raise of which is towards and into the Fountain Head, as the fall of the ‘‘dead river” was to the west. Recently a pany ted hoisting works on the Fountain Head, sank eighty feet, and then had to quit for lack of funds. So ve of the best of our gravel miners are firm in the opinion that if a consolidation of the Cold Spring and Fountain Head claims could be brought about— which would give 8000 feet along the ridge and covering the supposed course of the ch l—and the t 1 existing at the lower end of the consolidation could be enlarged and pushed to the east, one of the largest and most profitable drift mines on the coast would be the result. Such experienced and successful gravel miners as F. A. Gourley ‘express the strongest faith in the practicability of the plan, and when men of that class put the seal of approval upon a mining proposition it is reasonably certain the
proposition is a safe one to embark in, NOTES AND COMMENTS. The foregoing is but an incomplete resume of the stupendous mining interests of the section immediately contiguous to Nevada City. Mention of scores of promising enterprises now under way, and which will in time result in the development of rich and lasting mines, is intentionally omitted here, that they may be treated upon later in the*complete and careful manner that their merits warrant. The facta given in this article are obtained from conservative and well-posted men who could not in a single instance have a motive for exaggeration or misrepreseritation of any kind; and the writing has been done with a determnation to’ avoid sensationalism and te. present the situation in the plainest and most moderate. language. It the reader finds any errora as to facts or figures he can depend upon it tnat they are, unintentional and incons: quential. § This publication shows everybody conclusively that never before in her more than forty’ years’ career as a gold mining ceuter has Nevada City’s status in that respect been so firmly and _lastingly established as it is today. Never before at any one time has so much capital been actively engaged in developing our mineral resources, and never before have we had so many dividend-paying mines. x In very early times there were thousands of placer miners on our hills, and they quickly cleaned off the major part of the gold that was on or close to the surface; but now men are combining their nerve and coin and pushing into the bowels of the earth, hundreds and thouwands of feet beneath the grassroots, and here finding’ ~ : faust bearing gravel and gold-bearing ore as the moat imaginative and hopeful pioneer never dreamed of in his most optimistic moments—such leads and lodes of royal metal that generations of the most industrious and untiring delvers will strive in vain to monopolize their enticing, endless wealth. Ampung the most important enterprises yet projected in conjunction with the mining business of thia part of Nevada county, is the South Yuba Water Com pany’s contemplate plan for putting in one or more electric power plants with which: to supply the mines hereabout with the sileat but effective motor, — It is ascertained from a reliable source that the Oompany are making an investigation of the subject with a view to ascertaining if the probable demand for such power will warrant the expenditure involved, The water now flowing through the company’s ditches in this county could be used for running the electrical works and then permitied te flow on down into the Placercounty region where there is demand for all that cau be supplied. ‘The prive to the miners for electricity would be, according #6 the same as is now eee a for water. The revival in this district of drift mining, which branch of the industry has become so important a factor in our fair city’s present prosperity, can be ina very large degree credited to the influence of one inan, For years past Mong, A. Isoard has invested every cent he ‘ould earn over his bare living expenses in prospecting’ along the Manzanita or Harmony ridge. He not only spent his meuey there, but he talked varly and late in trying to convince others that the region was rich in golden treasure. He tried time and again to interest individuals ahd combinations of individuals to join with him in giving the section a square prospecting ao as to determine once for all if it really had a value, A few starts that promised well for awhile were made, bnt after a brief period ‘the enthusiasm or the funds (and sometimes both ) of his assuciates would ‘‘peter out” before what Mr. Isoard considered a fair test had been made, and he was again left all alone to try over agaiu, Bar-room prospectors would sit around aud covertly sneer at hris-blind faith, and street-corner miners would openly declare him a dréamer with an intangible hobby; but he kept on trying, his earnest, * logical arguments gradually bringing to his ways of thinking one convert and then another, until atiast the Harmony Company was organized, went to work and in a comparatively short time verified the correctness of his ideas, To-day it would be hard to find around: here a man who does not solennly protest that he always -knew the ridge was rich as Crasus. Yet the fact remains that if it had not been for citizen Iscard’s faith being of the kind ‘that removes mountains, the men who so company’s estimates thas far, about the solemnly protest as above set forth would probably not have lived long enough to prove there was any foundation for their protestations. $s$ $s 3 THE DELHI DISTRICT. 4 Good Outlook For the Mines Around Columbia Hill. The quartz mining region on the Mlddie Yuba River and Grizciy Canyon is tributary to this city, and as a consequence when the claims there are doing well a fair share of their output finds its way by one means or another into the aot unwilling hands of the county seat denizens. : The Delhi, whigh used to be so. productive but has for awhile until quite recently been treated rather harshly by the fates, is again rising to. the top of the waves of prosperity. One thousand feet in from the mouth of the 1500 feet tunnel the compiny recently sank thirty feet and found a big ledge the ore which milla over $30 a ton. Hoisting a:d pumping machinery is tu be pul in thé tuniel this falland the shaft wall be sunk toa depth of 150 feet where drifts will be started, At the Enterprise, west of the Delhi, over two yeara of faithful and expensive prospecting resulted last week in the striking of a large and good ledge. The company had about concluded to ‘‘throw up the spoige,” when the strike was > made, Years ago, in the Live Oak which is ahalf mile west of the Enterprise, a tunuel was run and a ledge eight feet or more thick was found. ‘Recently a San Jose company bonded the property and taking a crushing from the ledge had it milled at the Delhi with good results. The company have laid in supplies and will thoroughly prospect the property this winter. The St. Gothard shaft, down 490 feet on the ledge, is now being “sunk deeper by contract. The tunnel from Grizzly Canyon will connect with the shaft at a perpendicular depth of about 30) feet, The mine is looking so well that the stockholders feel convinced they will be eventually well repaid for ali their outlay of money as well as for the risk they took in embarking in the venture, The Grizzly Ridge of McAuslan mine on the Middle Yuba river below the Live Osk is owned by residents of this city aud North Bloomfleltt There are two ledges i the location, one a large one of fair grade and the other smaller but abounding in “specimen” ore, There is now on the dump forty tons_of quarts ready to crush. It shows well in free gold and the miners estimate it will pay from $30 to $40 a ton. This mine gives every sign of proving a big ono, and it is being opened in good style.
