MINE HIDDEN UNDER A TRAIL, ich Strike on the Road Over Which Snp- “ees wers Hauled to Another Mine, ©couli CAREFUL PROSPECTING REWARDED. w Gold and Copper Finds in Wyom- Hill District—FEx- of Miners New Camp. N ing's Gold cursion to the e June 24,—[Correspon- Prospectors aro fast is a veritablo Samatoay, Wyo., dence of Tur Bee.) finding out that this section now'’ country 8o far as its mineral resour- cos ure concerned. The mon who huve out- fitted heve during the past few weeks and taken up the hunt for mineral-bearing ledges on the mountams which surround the upper Platto valleg have, us a rule, alveady been re- warded. While trere is less commotion here now than there was earlier in the season, no- body wio keeps posted as to the prospect work recently done, need lose no faith in this part of Carhon county as & prospective bull- fon producer. Moro hard work is being done right now thun atany other time sinco tho Gold Hill excitoment began. Prosnectors not boomers ure musters of the situation. The nho who sits down and contents himself with trumpeting his find of thoe past will not be anywhere near the sight 8f the line when the procession begins 1o move. Itis safe to say that somoe of the strikes made by the new comners or i fresh fields will eclipso those which helped wivortise the Gold Hill camp Whilo Tue Brk s never had any occasion to chunie its wood opinion of that locality. tho friendly advise has oft been ropeated that search’ should bo made elsewhere for rich mineral doposits which undoubtealy ex ist. ‘There wre indications so encouraging that o good miniug mun wonldn't think of fgnoring thom unless ho had u bonanza in sight. Prospect work where these tavorable igns abound had met with marked success. Until development shall be possible on Gold Hill there is no excuso for idleness on tho part of auy miner who s uot aivend oaded down with claims there. Oue of the partners in valuable propertios on Gold Hill put in his time to good advantage a fow days ago by muking some locations near the scone of the strike at tho head of Lake creck, previously reportod in Tuk Bre. IHe had no trouble In enlisting partners who u to furnish the working capital for openiug up his clains, TRAMPED OVER A MINE, Over on tho Siorra Madres, which bound the Platte valley on the west, prospectors Are beginnivg 1o pick 1nto the ledpes which run in great belts across the Continental divide from tho Atlantio to the Pacific slope. In some cusos & littlo surfuce work has turned oat s0 well that prepa were {mwediately made for exploiting such leads lustatice may bo citad to indicute the attending carcful oud systematio Protty well up on the range botween Jack reck and the north fork of Spring creok are some olatms located a number of years ago by State Senator Frank O. Wilil and Houry Jones. They were among the fivst if uot the pioneer prospectors on that part of the Contineutal divide. They have a claim there called the Alma on which ezough work bas veen done to secure United Stetes patent. [t has been dovelopod extent that good silver rock has been taken out which it will _pay to ship. There are a uumber of tons of sorted ore ou the dump that will run high in silver. ‘Tho road over which \luery and supplies have been hauled up to the Alma for a nuwmber of sea sons back loads over a backboue crossing \he alvide. Along tbis ridge bas just been located & lead to such an | | | | I by John Paulson and Harley Brewer, which | 100ks very promising. They traced the lead for a considerablo distance aud then dug down only u few feet, whero the ledgo cropped out bold.' Galena ore was struck in two wide streaks between well gefined walls. Even with tho smull amount of work which has been done there aro indications that a genuine iissue veiu will be uncovered. ‘The faith of the lo- cators was demonstrated by the prompt ac- tion taken to dovelop their claim. Without malking any ado over their flud Paulson ana Brower came.to town and laid in supplies yosterday und started a pack outfit with supolies for a camp at_the new find. They will not be satistied with simply sinkicg o ten-foot hole, which is necessary to get tie cluim recorded, but will zo to a greater depth to measure the extent and importance of their discovery. CAN'T PROSPECT TOO CAREFULLY. That such a find should be made in tho neighborhood of a miue belonging to Jones and Willinms will occasion something bord- ering closoly ou a seusation when the fucts become generally kuown. Both are deservea- ly estecmed as bonost and good miners be- cause tnoy have fafthfully doveloped the claims they located witkout making any fuss over it, and seen ot a little experienco. That stich men should have missed so good a lead as that of Paulson and Brewer only tends to show tho opportunities for making good locations to those who take pains to hunt for lodges, or will prospect leads with which the Sierra Madres are ribbed. The same old story will ve retold many times over during the present season, in ail probability, of the discovery of gold claims in localities over which miners have tramped till o trail has been worn, all unminaful of the presonce of rich stores of mineral which will be found by a stranger. Such is the history of many & good mino that has added very ma to the output of & district. = Often has it been the caso that these have either been made the dishearteved mine s camp. But it is a safe » to follow for the man who is willing to work and has any knowledge of mining, to thoroughly prosped the unstaked territory adjacent to a scene of honest mining whero any success has been gaiued or carned. Opportunities for car: ing on such campaigns abound 1 both the Medicinoe Bow runge and tne Sierrn Madres throughout their extent of sixty miles on oither side of the Platte valloy., There are scores of localities where strikes recent and remote have domostrated the presence of mineral deposits, which it is un are ro- stricted tothe limits of the recorded claims. A little judicious prospect work in such vlaces miy bo attended by results that will curich the men who attompt it A prospector named Morrison and his part ner bave just come 1n from @ trip with speci wens from two claims which they intend to work, Ona of the locations is on’ the Pacifie slope of tho Sierra Madres in what is kuov as the Sasery country. Several years a, there was @ big excitoment in that section ovor thadiscovery of rien gold aiggings th atdcal of placer ground was but after a while it was demonstrated that s large amount of capital would be reauirod to wash out the gold. The troublo wis that the streams on that side of the range did not have w sufticientiy large fall to work the plucers and the wuter supply was not large enough without an extousive ick i While the oxciteme uumerous quartz leads wore loca with the subsidence of the furoro over the placers 086 clalms were abandoniod along with the otler locations. ‘e Morrison fiela looks well but work will | bo necessary beforo any judgemont can be formed us t0 its worth or the: extent of tho ore body.

Free gold appe ¢ of quitting is ara It sed and Urought to town and altheugh no assay has been made tho vein matter all paus out well The country round-about this new strike will 1o doubt bé gone over thoroughly now. ANOTHEK LOST MINE FC Good reports coutinue to cowe from the French creek country where a big silver lead was traced along the bed of the streum last month. Some of the prospectors who had been waiting at Laramie for a chance to gt intc Gold Hill from that place in the event of a road being opened over the snowy raug mado a rush for French creck. When the Laramie folks had abandoned their route to Gold Hill as impracticable an_attempt was made o stampede the miners for French creek to which Laramie arvoad part of the way. The difficultios to bo encountered wero too great for auy sane venturesome spurits to tackle, A few went in with pack outfits and new locations were made by them, The original locators’ plan being to open up someof their claims as soon as possible. If a cood showing is made the Saratoga board of trade will build a road mto tho new mp. It is six miles south of Gold Hill and was the scene of operations for a number of years of an old prospector known as *‘Dutch Joe” about whom and his work there was & large element of mystery For a long period ho was reputed to hav annually taken out enough gold to support himself, but he jealously guarded his secret as to the source from which the treasure was obtained. *“Joe's" sudden dieappearance, his mining operations and hermit-like existehce, formed the basis for a sort of mythical story of the character which surrounds the “Lost Cabin" and “Adams’ Claims” in mining legends. There is no room for argument that at somo time in the pust somebody had faith sufficient to expend much time if not money in development work there, A sixty- foot shafy wis sunk and there are other-evi- dences tfat minoral was taken out or olse the indications were s0 encouraging as to war- rant a systomatic search for an ore body. With the work already done it will be an easy matter after the old shaft is cleaned out to detormine what actuated the originat locu- tors to stay by the lead. In the event of any big thing being dis- closed n road would be immediately built so that the sectiop could bo brought into easy communication with Sarutoga. The distance from the town to where Mullen ercek empties into the Platte is about thirty miles, over a good road. From there a trail loads up part of tho way to Krench ercek, which can be traveled by horsemen aud pack outfits. wagon road could be built cheaply and over the best nud shortest route into that section, A number of prospectors went in over that course some time since, but contented them- selves with looking wbout and then struck off in & new direction. Most of tho new pros- pectors who have come into the country of late ure a secretive set aud are not much given to taking people into their confidence or atlowing the public to enjoy the benefit of their opinious or observations. The only chance for finding out what they are doing is to spe for yourself. This policy doesn’t hurt tho prospéctor any but is not of much benefit 10 the country. Now and then some scrap of information floats about and tarough per- soual iuspection & mineris let into the secret. All this will explain why there have been so tew reports from the many prospectors who have passed through Saratoga since May 1 or outtitted here. It does not necessarily follow that because 0o record has been pub- lished of the doings of this cluss that they nAve not met with success. i\ chances are that most of the ctors have been re wardod to less de than the fow whose tinds have been made kuown.

This ought to be fin- ished the first weelk in July at the latest, and then the camp will be speedily put in shape for working or at least so that it can be in- spected to advantage, GOLD HILL'S SIOW. Plans are perfecting for an_excursion of mining men from Denver about July 15 Somo of the boys who have used up all their monoy in doing nssessment work and pros pecting have expectations of interesting vis- itors tosuch an extent that they will have the means to put their properties in better shape. ‘The primary object, as ropresented by the projectors of the oxcursion, is to dom- onstrate to mill men that it will b a good in- vestment to put up onb or mor custom stamp mills. When it is known that the visit of the mining men is assured, the owners of cluims will make baste to put their properties in a condicion that will make inspection pos- sible. That will be not only a good tning the camp, but for the entire strict of which Saratoga is the centor, So far little placer work has been done, al though a force has been engaged in opening up some of the old diggings which are sup- 10 be the relics of Spanish or Aztec operations of several conturies ago. The sus- picion is that owners of the thousands of acres of placers on North and South Brush creok and on the Medicine Bow river are waiting to see what the relocators of these old diggings discover before beginning wor themselyes, While the snow was late in leaving a lot of valuable time has been wasted if anything is expected to be accomplished this season in gold washing, Grone it Small i size, ereat i results: Do Witts Little EarlyRisers.
