Tho Mining Outlook Is Very Encouraging in all the Districts. ‘ After a few hours steady climbing from the little town of Washington on the banks of the South Yuba one comes to the point where the mother lode dips under the lava beds which cap the great gravel channel. The mother lode crosses Deer creek two and a half miles below its head. Just how wide it is is not yet known. The South Yuba river cuts the lode 1000 feet deep and almost at right angles, giving a good opportunity for studying its many features. It seems to gather its walls at Scotchman’s creek, which is the hanging wall down to/ White Cloud mountain, which would be the foot wall. From present indications it would not be surprising to hear of rich and valuable shoots of ore being discovered in this region,.for there has been little or no prospecting done on it except on Washington .and~ Poorman’s creeks, : : One can see hereabouts evidences of marine life. It is well known that all this great American continent has been thrown into oceanic conditions to va-* vious depths. No part of the North ' American continent shows so plainly the violence of convulsions and oceanic conditions as the regions lying between the Gulf of California, the Colorado river deserts and canyons, the Green, Snake and Columbia rivers, in California, Colorado, Utah, Idaho and Arizona. That it did not remain for any great period of time in oeeanic conditions there are many proofs. Among them is one that thoughtful readers suaysiudy. Looking out ove# hill and dale and about ten miles distant as a «row would fly, is a lava capped mountain witb a gravel channel beneath. Some years ago a tunnel was run into this mountaiu 2000 feet. It struck the gravel channel 500. feet vertically from the surface. In the gravel and sedimentary matter were found acorns and oak leaves, not petrified but in a good state of. preservation. There are four great quartz lodes in our county, the first or lower one being the North Star and Allison Ranch lode on the west side of Wolf creek. Next «comes the Eureka-Idaho lode from foot wall to the Lucky and Cambridge amines, with its series of.rich ore shoots, many as yet hardly touched, notwithstanding that these two great and rich jodes have produced in gold in 48 years $105,748,407. Then comes the Providence-Champion lode, from Town Talk to the La Suerte, which has produced, excluding Gold Flat, $72,000,000 in gold, and great portions of the lode Temain untouched and unexplored. Many of the mines now being prospected will yet compare favorably with the great Providence and Champion mines. All that is needed is capital intelligently applied. Of course there are hundreds of mines, and some good ones, too, outside of these great lodes scattered throughout the county. On the mother lode at the St. Patrick mine there are twe tunnels, one above the other. The upper tunnel has been rin across the lode 167 feet and shows 94 feet of ledge, pure quartz. The lower tunnel has been run in 270 feet and is 40 feet in ledge quartz not mixed. Five huadred pounds of this ore was treated by mill process by George Bingay of this city and yielded well in free gold. The sulphurets, of which there were 13 pounds, assayed $744.12 perton. This . isa “y shoot of ore and with depth ' .will andoubtedly make a gold mine. On the next claim to the south a tunnel _ \has been raw on the lode a hundred . sfeet or 80. The ledge looks well. Sev‘eral years ago an arasta was used on . «this claim with good results. Directly roppesite the town of Washington, at ' tthe El Capitan and Honest Frank, three tunnels have beenrun. The first ‘tunnel ran through the ledge for a _ hundred feet. Some of the ore milled. $5 per ton and the sulphurets assayed #100 a ton. The mine was bonded toa French company and soon afterwards work was stopped. Another tunnel was run south for 400 feet but.was too high. Another tunnel was run 200 feet _ aud cut through the rich stringers of quartz and slate, which assayed well _ ia goid and showed about the same character of matter as is found in the mother lode mines of Amador and other mother lode counties. It is the intention to run enother tunnel 400 _ feet deeper and 800 feet south of the present lower tunnel. This from indications will cut the great ore shoot’ where all the stringers and mineral feeders from ‘both sides will be in place, forming 100 feet of rich ore. The cost to do this, compared with the reward, is a mere song. King with its two tunnels, cutting in the upper tunnel an ore shoot 120 feet wide. The shoot of ore has been traced south for a distance of 750 feet into the Giant Queen ground, and is a discovery that will no doubt lead down into the main ore shoots. The point of discovery is 120 feet south of the Giant King south line and 150 feet east of the Todé line. “Somebody will take hold of these now idle mines some day and make vast fortunes out of them,besides giving employment to hundreds of men and benefiting the whole county. At the California the long tunnel has struck into the fissure, which is nearly 100 feet wide, and filled with a series of pay shoots. The Eagle Bird is still a good mine, notwithstanding the fact that it has produced $900,000. ‘Considerable work is being done along the river mines, but in nearly every case it is want of confidence and actual lack of capital. Where it would take $25,000 to insure success in a good gold quartz mining venture they expect to win on $10,000and $15,000. It is the same old story: didn’t put in enough to make it a success. That is the real cause. of many failures in mining ventures. Francis N. Burns. » BRIEF MENTION. Minor Notes and Comments of Local Interest. If you want to keep warm these cold days drink Robin Hood.

Captain Beckley of the Colts today decided to take the same players to Watt Park Sunday that he had in the
last game with the Monarchs, the only change in the line-up being the transposition of Sullivan and Costello and Thad. Sigourney, Sullivan going into center field, Costello to shortstop and Thad. Sigourney to right field: He is confident that the two or three men who showed up go weak last Sunday are as capable players as there are in the county, and he does not want to shut them out without giving them a fair chance to redeem themselves. The Buggy Washers are hunting. for a club to play with them at Cashin Field Sunday forencon. They would like to tackle the French Corrals, Biue Tents or Indjans, but so far have not been able to make a match. Manager Niliell of the Colts suggests that the Baltimore club be induced to come to Watt: Park and play a game with a picked nine to be made up of the best players of the various clubs of this county. Last evening’s Tidings says: “Next Sunday’s game between the Colts and Pioneers will be another evidence of the relative ability between the Pioneers and Monarchs. The Colts and the Monarchs are very evenly matched and the result of next Sunday's game will be a fair criterion of what the score would be if the two Grass Valley clubs same together.” The sad part of the joke is that the two Grags Valley clubs do not speak as they pass by, each one declaring that it would not be found dead in the same diamond with the other. Bob McHale, the celebrated catcher and bas} man formerly connected with the National and State Leagues, will play with the Pioneers in Sunday’s game against the Colts. Rene Sylvester of the Colts, who broke a small bone in his right arm a week ago last Sunday, played in this afternoon’s practice game. Hedeclares that his arm is better now than it was before he hurt it. The Colts expect to have a harder fight to hold their own with the Pioaeers next Sunday than they did to save their distance in last Sanday’s game with the Monarchs. They are working like Trojans this week to get themselves ready for the best showing they have yet made since their organization. eect tna Tue Calendar Clock Safe is a companion of the housekeeper. * 29 Native Daughters’ Meeting.
