The new company.is organized under.the laws of’ Nevada and has the reputation of being well financed and successful. The Spread Eagle claims taken Bains and associates of Colorado is making fine headway with preliminary work. A 100 foot raise is to connect the tunnel with the surface. A hoist has been installed to sink from this point. Six men are employed and a large foree will be employed next month. The company expects W do some extensive and deep development. This will enak others to sink to liwer ley. All. mines in the Whitlock disae have been heavy producers in the past. The Feliciana Mine, which is proying one of Mariposa county’s rich properties is showing much high grade ore as sinking continues: Is is expected by Morris Faber, manager, that a shaft 100 feet deeper will be sunk to prove the depth of a rich chute of ove which has milled heavily the last few months. Some very important news is expected from the River Tunnel mine in the near future. Work is progres-° sing rapidly on cleaning up ‘the old workings. Twenty men are employed.

A BRIGHTER MINING OUTLOOK: ° PREDICTED BY MAGAZINE “With the oil wells on down for lack of business, eteé.,” the San Joaquin Power Magazine of Fresno, pictures a brighter outlook in the mining fields and the possibility of the opening of past famous gold producers. Among the splendid pictures throughout the magazine are a great gold quartz jn ithe lobby of the Krone hotel, Coarse Recently 14 feet of high grade ore . Gold district. A street scene in the camp of Columbia, a cabin where Mark Twain lived during the days of gold. Texas Flat mine in its day, was one of the most productive gold mines in what was then Fresno county. This is one of the _ possibilities of an old district being brought. back by opening up of its historical mine. It mentions Poker Flat, the scene of Bret Hart’s most famous story. This old camp has come to life, but instead of Shaggy, -red-shirted miners, with their shovels and gold pans, a steel monster driven by eletricity is digging down under’ the shallow water. It is estimated that the ‘electrical has ben opened up on a cross-cut . on the 400-level.

About the time he. first this ground he went on a visit to relatives and for years prospected jin Idaho and Montana. He had always kept in mind this rich ground on Specimen Creek so laf winter he returned and has heen waiting for the snow tv go off in order that he could look for the old diggings. He took another man with him and for days they searched but he was unable to locate the old claim. Finally his partner found other employment. Turney continued to search until he was rewarded by locating the mine he had _ located many years ago. From a pan that he took from the ledge he found ten o1 fifteen small nuggets and a string of fine gold. The ledge has a hard gray porphry hanging wall, while the foot wall is dyorite, with iron cubes and a stain of silverin the ore. The ledge is from eighteen inches to two feet at the top. Turney returned to Forks of Salpurpose of building a trail property, so he can get provisions in. From all indications ‘he has struck a rich ledge. He has been a prospector for many years and made some good strikes in early days. He says there are many good ledges in the Salmon river section and if a prospector will take an outfit and to the almost sure to strike a good ledge. —Siskiyou Times. CAMPTONVILLE MINING Continued from front page Slate Ranze on’ his claims which he started to tunnel last season. This is in. a very rugged country and it is difficult work doing development work, being extremely hard to get supplies to the property. This is wie third season that Mr. Kelly has worked at this in an extensive maniier. Henry Rabe is still forging ahead in his tunnel at his quariz property near the.Sleighville House. If the rock contiues good. Mr. Rabe will probably put upa small mill to handle the ore. Although not as_ noticable as in the days’ of forty-nine, the lure of the yellow dust still pushes many a soul into the wilds, and he who braves the hardships connected with this vocation, risks his safety, works long hours, and waits another day to reach the desired goal, whether he be a lone, nature loving prospector “river rat’’ as some of his unfortunate brothers term him, or the finan. cler who is willing to put up his ;money and take a chance on strike . ‘ing it rich or losing, both working to the development of the country, isa man to be complimented and encouraged. . SEUSS RS VW. Rk: Detert, prominent Amador county mining man, tas purchased 900 acres of gravel and quartz property at Foresthill in Placer county and will develop it by tunnels, Spencer White is home after spending some time at Hobart Mills. And now someone finds that “the shark was the first of our ancestors io have a face.’’ Since many have inherited other characteristies of their shark ancestors, why not believe this latest discovery? It’s a fortunate. son now who knows where his own mother is—especially during the bridge season. The world may be strong for peace but most of the nations seem to want it on their own terms. According to our European crities it is perfectly all right for Great Britain—to-protect~ her interests in the Suez canal Egypt but it is rank imperialism for Uncle Sam’ to do anything toward defending his canal rights in the { western hemisphere.
