The strike was made on New Year day. Young Mr. Calkins and his father and brother had been working the claim steadily since August 14th. They had run 215 feet of main tunnel and had upraised and drifted in varisciferonliny pie for several hundred feet more, hing for the blue lead supposed to under Cement Hill, but which has heretofore never been found in that part of th ~gounty.

Th cen to the load. ey . were g oe Tee oe Prag abet ‘vinced they had found nothing more than a front lead and were so discouraged they were on the verge of quitting. After a conference on the last day of the year they decided to work a few days longer. Next morning an impulse seized one of them to go into an upraise ten feet above the tunnel and drift westerly. He had gone but four feet when he struck a rim carrying a thin layer of genuine blue gravel and pitching to the west. This raised a hope and all prospecting operations were aimed at that direction. Since then the rim-rock of the new-found lead has been broken through at various points for a distance of forty feet and found to be uniform and regular. Every foot of it so far prospects splendidly, ten cents to the pan being the poorest tried so far. It extends almost parallel with and severul feet above the tunnel, and the owners are satisfied that they have half ‘a mile on the channel. The blue gravel is dry, indicating a heavy layer of pipe-clay over it. The yellow gravel in the front channel has been very wet. Arrangements will now be made for the thorough and systematic working of thie claim. The elder Calicins ~has been a gravel miner in that locality since 1849, and he regards the find as one of the best ever made or above ‘. Selby Flat, which was a. table golconda to the pioneer placer miners. A number of other old-time gravel miners have visited the claim in the last few days, and they say they have seen nothing so good for thirty years or more. The blue lead evidently runs into the land of E.D. Dean, adjoining the Calkins’ patent, and Mr. Dean will at once resume the operations he has carried on for so many years in the belief that his ground contained something of the kind. For many years past the search for this deposit bas been ‘carried on by prospector after prospector, and without avail till now. Tens of thousands of dollars have been spent in sinking and in running tunnels and cuts. One shaft was sunk a great distance into the ridge some three decades ago and struck a boulder twenty or more feet across the top. Here the shaft-sinkers quit in disgust. Had they put an incline down past the boulder a-few feet they would have. found what they wanted, for the boulder lies just over the channel as the last few days have proven to the present owners.
