Nenear Forest Hill. The company was for some time unable to run their mill for the lack of water. They have now breasted out enough gravel to run their mill for four or five months. W.C. Ralston left for~the East last week to make arrangements with his company for the erection of a big plant on the Melones mine. Mr. Ralston has in the last year developed a large body of fair grade ore, which promises to make one of the big mines of the State. The Empire mine in Copperopolis district, Calaveras—county, now largely owned by Thomas Pheby of Oakland, will be started up this season. This property has been idle for a couple of years while involved in litigation. All of the controversies are about settled. The: Central Bitches of Amador has been idle forsome months owing to financial troubles. The indebtedness has been practically settled and a small crew of men have been put to work in prepairing the shaft, preparatory to pumping out the water. This. mine is largely owned by Oakland investors: Charles Butters of Berkeley is makold Comstock properties as well as Prietas, Sonora, Mexico. The new ‘ten stamp mill for the Big Betsy mine, Big Oak Flat, Tuolumne . . county, is the sixth milling plant récently erected in that district. The shaft of the old Oneida mine, Amador county, which is being re-opened under the supervision of Captain Thomas Mein of Oakland, has reached a depth of 1700 feet from which level a cross cut is being run to the ledge. The Potazuba “mine of Amador last ‘week completed a crushing of 180 tons of ore at the Baliol mill, the result of which was a clean up $7000, $500 of which was in sulphurets. A location, one of the results of the Coffee Greek rush, called the Yellow Rose, on Union Creek, a tributary of Coffee Creek, is owned by Misses Irma aud Josephine Rider, two Napa county teachers, and Amos Hill. Mr. Hill has been developed during the past! : season. The ledge, showing from two to nine feet in width, is on a contact “giving every indication of permanency: ‘jhe oreruns $5to $2000 per ton, the high grade predominating. Last week some very fine specimens of gold were. taken from the Great Surprise and ’49 mines, owned by Mrs. E. A. Jones, Tuolumne county. The pieces varied in worth froth $4 to $40. Two men have uncovered a remarkably rich ledge of copper ore, carrying also an uncommon percentage of gold, at a point about one hundred yards from Paul’s bridge near Redding on the Sacramento river. The deposit is represented to be one handred fet in width. Mountain Oopper Company officials have visited the -proposition and are so well pleased with it that they . ave signified a desire to contract for six curs of the ore per day.

In the southern part of the county, near the Nevada county-line, the Plumbago mine is on a good-paying basis and yielding large returns. A large amount of new machinery was put in at that mine this season, and the property is considered today one of the richest in the county. One of the richest strikes made in this county in many years was the discovery by William York and sons in the property known as the Forest Queen, situated at the mouth of Slug canyon, a short distance below Downieville, On December 8th they came upon some of the richest. quartz ever taken from any minein the county. In a few hours they had extracted from the ledge about $3000 worth of. ore. The quartz, which is known as ribbon rock, is literally seamed with gold, and is so rich that it will become necessary to crush much of itin a hand mortar, as it cannot be run through the mill. Although placer mining has also suffered from theeffects of the dry season, considerable work has been done and there are several prop@rties where the outlook is good.

The Alfred Wilkie Boston Ideals, who will appear at this city on Thursday evening, the 19th, have this season arranged a most pleasing and artistic program. : The fine tenor singing of Mr. Wilkie, both in costume and evening dress, -is of course the feature of the performance. Mr. Wilkie’s selections range from grand opera to the simple ballad. Miss Bertha Clark, in the classic Greek statue monologue, “Laureame, a Marble Dream,” is a great success. The different poses are beautifully arranged. Her rendition. of Holmes’ “Boat Race” from “Mortal Antipathy” is extremely exciting.

It would behoove them now to start in with the new year and take up another and more practical in the interests of men and mines. If the executive committee sets about a plan to get some money from fhe State to establish reduction works at convenient points in all of the mining counties, a step would be made in the right direction. These works should be made available for the owners of}: small mines, who could be kept actively employed by the sale of ore from time to time,-as it accumulates on their durops. The management and direction of these plants might be safely rested in the hands of the State Mineralogist, who would in turn be responsible for his subordinates. From the profits of these ‘works, after deducting legitimate expenses, the balance should be returned to the State Treasury, either by way of interest or in the reduction of the original amount loaned. If Colorado and Westralia can ron establishments of the kind to the mutual advantage of all concerned, why should not California succeed in a like manner? <ée oOo The Saddle Girth Broke.

In the southern part of the county, near the Nevada county-line, the Plumbago mine is on a good-paying basis and yielding large returns. A large amount of new machinery was put in at that mine this season, and the property is considered today one of the richest in the county. One of the richest strikes made in this county in many years was the discovery by William York and sons in the property known as the Forest Queen, situated at the mouth of Slug canyon, a short distance below Downieville, On December 8th they came upon some of the richest. quartz ever taken from any minein the county. In a few hours they had extracted from the ledge about $3000 worth of. ore. The quartz, which is known as ribbon rock, is literally seamed with gold, and is so rich that it will become necessary to crush much of itin a hand mortar, as it cannot be run through the mill. Although placer mining has also suffered from theeffects of the dry season, considerable work has been done and there are several prop@rties where the outlook is good.

The Alfred Wilkie Boston Ideals, who will appear at this city on Thursday evening, the 19th, have this season arranged a most pleasing and artistic program. : The fine tenor singing of Mr. Wilkie, both in costume and evening dress, -is of course the feature of the performance. Mr. Wilkie’s selections range from grand opera to the simple ballad. Miss Bertha Clark, in the classic Greek statue monologue, “Laureame, a Marble Dream,” is a great success. The different poses are beautifully arranged. Her rendition. of Holmes’ “Boat Race” from “Mortal Antipathy” is extremely exciting. Toc much cannot be said about the} extraordinary ability of the young pianist, Margaret Davis. .Her performances are the wonder of the critios.

If the executive committee sets about a plan to get some money from fhe State to establish reduction works at convenient points in all of the mining counties, a step would be made in the right direction. These works should be made available for the owners of}: small mines, who could be kept actively employed by the sale of ore from time to time,-as it accumulates on their durops. The management and direction of these plants might be safely rested in the hands of the State Mineralogist, who would in turn be responsible for his subordinates. From the profits of these ‘works, after deducting legitimate expenses, the balance should be returned to the State Treasury, either by way of interest or in the reduction of the original amount loaned. If Colorado and Westralia can ron establishments of the kind to the mutual advantage of all concerned, why should not California succeed in a like manner? <ée oOo The Saddle Girth Broke.
