Many Costly Developments Are Made Upon a Large Scale. Recent news from the mines of Cali- fornia is good. Several new and rich strikes have given fresh confidence to the mine owners. The work of making large and costly improvements is progressing well and vast plants are being developed. As will be seen, the/ Mountain Copper Company in Shasta County has been add-. ing facilities, . The vyarious fndications tend to show that the mining Industry is this State, in comparison to which all previous works in California will seem small. There is sale for good propérties. Seldom has the outlook seemed as bright for the miners as it does now. Strikes on Lode. Says the Stockton Independent: Rich strikes on the mother lode have been €0 trequent of late that a find must 1un intc hundreds of. thoysands - of ~dollars. nuw or it will not .create any great jnterest of talk, Probably ‘no larger or richer strikestiian thé two just reported in the Jumper and Sheep Ranch_claims have been made. In the former about $2,000,000 were taken out of a very small area. At the Sheep Ranch, in which W. H. Clary Sr, of this city is interested, & rich vein has been uncovered. Then agaii a rich pay chute in the Dead Horse has just been located. Now comes the réport that some Very rich rock- has ‘bgen found ' in the John *Buil district, about five miles north of Valley Springs. The Mother Lode Banner says: It begins to appear that there will be a boom in the resumption of gravel mining in this county. -At Springfeld deposits of great richness have been discovered. L. Lang is operating a claim at Mount Brown. San Jose people are negotiating for seventeen acres Eelongirg to W. Mansfleld, ut Columbia. Don- @era, Mapes and Conlin are heaving the gravel and_recovering the gold on their “properties at Yankee Hill. There is another piece of ground near. there, the Cinelll ranch, awaiting the pick and pah to bring to light the hidden treasure. That place has a large bed of gravel, The Toulomne Independent reports that San Francisco capitalists are bargaining for the George Mapes gravel mines at Yankee Hill. Thomas Brown has sold a art of the Sunnyside quartz mine, mear ve Mile Creek, to A. A. Cline.: Ernest A. Wiltse has agreed to sell to Augusta H. Ward of Alameda the Two Brothers and the Little Sister quartz mines, near Groveland, and also a milling site of five acres at _the head of Deer Creek. The Peacemaker mine, near Arastraville, has been sold by U. S.'Green to Paul F. Green of Sonoma. Improvements Are Large. The Amador Record says that when the mill has its full complement of 100 stamps, the Gwin mine plant wiu be the finest on the mother lode. The same journal says that the chlorination works at Sutter Creek, known as the Amador Reduction ‘Works, have been started up, \using oil for fuel. ‘When the water was turned on in the Melones mine at Melones, Calveras Coun- ty, everything went well. Nearly $1,000,- 000 has been expended in six years. Sixty will be put in soon. The Los Angeles Times, discussing deep mining and new methods, says: As an instance of how differently, as com- pared with ten years ago, to g0 no further back, sinking to greater depths for the richer ore bodies is regarded, the following may be cited—it is but one of many: At the Cactus mine in Utah it has been decided to put the shaft down to a depth of 2000 feet before further exploring on the vein. The shaft is now down 600 feet, but the owners, after in- vestigation and deliberation, have decided that | it will pay them better to go to the greater | depth before attacking their ore bodies, be- | lieving that they will find the ore more uni- | form in value at the greater depth, and as it | can_be more economically worked by stoping. | _What is going to be done at this mine in | Utah is now being successfully done with some of the old gold mines in California, some long ago, were looked upon as out.”” . Many of -these mines were abandoned, it being supposed that there was no gold in paying quantity below the depth they were worked, which probably in no in- stance exceeded 1000 feet. That would hold true in cases of ‘‘gash’” veins, but with “fissure”” veins the paying depth has not yet been reached. It will in time be demonstrated that in California, and in fact along the entire Pacific Coast, taking the Rocky Mountaing as the eastern boundary, that the vein formation is largely fissure character, and that the depths yet attained are but superficlal, as compared with what mine working will be a few years hence. The Calaveras Prospect reports that the development of the Greek mine, near the Banner mill, has begun. The oid Central Hill gravel mine, near San.Andreas, has been bonded. The Amador Ledger reports that prep- arations are making to operate the Fre- mont and Grover claims on a large scale, and the works bid fair to be equal, if not superfor, to any' in the county. The great plant of the Mountain Copper Company at Keswick, Shasta County, is now operated by electricity. The Redding Free Press says that electricity has been used for some time on the slag railroad connected with the plant. Some ldea of the immense saving to the Movuntain Copper Company can be gained When it is stated that electricity develops a horse- power of energy for one hour at an expense of about three-quarters of a cent, where with wood, coal or petroleum the hourly cost per horsepower for fuel and attention was but little lesg than 4 cents, namely 3.6 cents. Slate Industry Booms. The Georgetown Gazette says concern- ing the progress of the slate industry in Placer County: At the Eureka slate quarry a_ tunnel 500 feot long Wil be run. to be used for drainage purpose. The California Slate Company, ope- ratirg -near Placerville,. shipped a. carioad .of slate last week. This company is only com- mencing .to_ship, this being the second car this year. The Eureka company has shipped in - the- neighborhood of thirteen carloads .of slate since the firat of the year. - Each car con- tains about eighty squares, and at:$10 per there 18 some ‘money in that much The Oalfornia~Bangor Slate’ Company _is preparing to operate quarries in Kelsey. . dis- trict. The company owns. fully two miles ot the slate belt, extending from the Eureka company’s_property to William Burton's plave. The. quarry wil be equipped with the latest improved, machinery, which will,; be . much hegvier than any ever ugsd in the county. Jackets of Copper. “According tothe ‘Redding Searchlight, Emil Holden hgs been: nesot}atifing for the sale of four ashestos elaims for. .

Important Questions Arise at the Outset of the Pro- ceedings. The .commission elected by the: Califor- nia Water and Forest Association to pre- pare endments to the ‘existing State | laws bearing upon - water appropriation and water uses in California have reached some conclusions. Thé members who met are Professor C. D. Marx of Stanford Uni- versity, Professor Soule of the University of California, Chief Justice Beatty, Presi- dent Benjamin Ide Wheeler of the Uni- versity of California, J. 8. Lippincott of the United States (feological Survey and Elwood "Mead, irrigation expert of the Government. The subject matter in hand was finally divided into two parts—present condition and what should be doue in the future. It was the unanimous opinfon of the com- mission that any steps th«t could be taken to ‘determine finally the status of the vested rights of the users of water would [ be of the utmost advantage, so that these { users ‘would be -protected once and for all time 'in- the legitimate use of their holdings without danger of interference and without the consequent large expense of litigation that might ensue. : On the other hand, it was proposed. that the laws bearing upon the use of water should in .the future be so amended as to avoid the vast amount of litigation that has been had in the past, and to out- line a method whereby all entanglements which hitherto confronted the users of water should forever be obviated. A -meeting of the commission will be held June 23 in this city. Prior to this meeting members of the commission hav- ing any scheme to propose will send the same in writing to the headqugrters of the assoclation on or before the first of June. * Copies of any proposed scheme will be mailed to. all the members of the commission. GENERAL HUGHES TAKES CHARGE OF DEPARTMENT New Commander, by Reason of Age, ‘Will Hold Office for Only One Year. | Major General Robert P. Hughes ar- { rived in the city yesterday morning and | assumed command of the Department of California. The staff officers .and other prominent officials in the department gave j him a hearty welcome 1t headquarters, in the Phelan building. He had expected to take a more extended leave of absence i after his service in the Philippines; but | finally came to the econclusion that he | could recuperate jn California better than anywhere else. His tenure of office here will end in about a year, at which time he will have reached the age limit and will retire. The headquarters band and Second Bat- talion of the Seventeenth Infantry, Col- onel Goodale in command, left the city yesterday for their new station at Van- couver Barracks, Washington. Com- panies M, K, I and B of the same regi- ment will leave to-morrow, the first two for Fort Wright, Spokane, Wash., and the others for Boise Barracks, Idaho. The military auvthorities 4t the Presidio propose to build a new entrance to the reservation at the corner of Broadway and Lyon streets. —————— Pays Dearly for Masquerading. ' John O'Brien, a cook, who was arrested at Sutter street and Grant avenue Fri- day night by Policeman D. Murphy while masquerading in false whiskers seeking for his rival, appeared before Judge Ca- baniss yesterday. On.a charge of mas- querading in disguise he was fined $100, with the alternative of fifty days in the County Jail, and fgr carrying a concealed weapon he was sentenced to sixty days in jail. N L e e e e e e last year the company spent over $700,00C in | improvements, and is now planning to spend, | $500,000 the. coming summer on improvements over and above the regular running expense: By May 1 the furnaces now being erected wi I'be in running order, and the company will | then be able to treat 2500 tons of ore every twenty-four hours. Local mining men who are in a position to pass opinions place little weight on the rumor thet he may sell. Greene has been takihs an active part in the planning of work for the coming year. Canadians Are Stirring. The Canadian ‘miners are urging that they shall have a Mining Department, be- ing stirred thereto by the work that has been performed in the United States for such a department. The Ledge, published at Vancouver, says: The meeting of the Canadian Mining Instl- tute in Montreal a few days ago was notable, not only for the large attendance and the live- 1y Interest taken in the proceedings, but also for the business brought forward and the¢ na- ture of the toples discussed. The chief among these was the position which the Government sustains toward the mining industry and the extent to which that industry has been bene fited by the Geological Survey and other public Lureaus. The feeling expressed by the repre- sentatives of the different mining sections who were present was very strong and the whole debate, with the action taken, constitutes an important episode in the mining history of he Dominion. As to the best ‘means some differences of opinfon was shown. The large majority favored the creation of a department of mines which should include the present Geological Survey as its scientific section, and should also have an active branch ~devoted to the econamic and commerclal side of the mining industry, . UNDAY, APRIL 6, N\ 1902.. RATE Assures - .the Encamp- ment Committee of His Friendsh'p.- Parade of Uniformed Knights of Pythias Will Be a Big Affair, " The executive committee having in charge the arrangements of the details for the reception and entertainment of the 15,000 Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, who are to attend the grand en- ‘campment to be held in this city on Aug- ust 14, is busily engaged in the discharge of its duties, The work of raising funds will be 'commenced- to-morrow, and the indications are that'the citizens wilk re- spond with their usual generosity. Chairman Charles L. Patton of the. ex- ecurive committee received a letter from the Governor yesterday announcing’ his willingness to co-operate with the com- mittee in every way to secure the com- plete success of the encampment. A simi- lar- - letter ‘was . recelved - from. Mayor Schmitz, who dssured’ the committee that he would do all in his power to assist in rendering the affair the success it prom- ises to be. The subject of holding an_open-air; ex- hibit of county products during the' ten days’ encampment has been broached, and it 1§ likely to be realized. . Two prominent knights from Napa and Sonoma counties visited headquarters yesterday and-said that -the sentiment among the interior commanderies is largely in favor of the project. If a suitable site for the exhibit can be found, plenty of exhibits may be had. Union Square has been suggested as. the best and most central place for holding the proposed exhibit, and it will likely be selected. General R. H, Warfileld has accepted the chairmanship of the parade committee and is already-at work arranging the de- tails of that feature of the encampment. More than 15,000 uniformed knights will be in line, not to mention the Naval bri- gade and State militia. Captain Thomas A. Nerney of the Naval brigade has been communicated with and he has announced his willingness to participate in the parade with _his entire -organization. Colonel Thomas O'Neill of the First Cali- fornia Regiment will be requested to co- operate. . Reports received from the lodges in the interfor as well as from all parts of the coast indicate a large attendance at the encampment. The lodges will turn_out in full force and the parade is expected to excel anything of the kind ever wit- nessed- in. this city. In addition to the visiting knights, it is beleved fully 25,000 strangers will come to the city during the encampment. The site for the encampment has not yet been selected. If .the Pavilion is to be the choice of the eommittee, then the residents in the district thus honored must assist in raising the money therefor. Unless this can be secured, the offer of the Government to house the visiting knights in wall tents at the Presidio must be accepted. The choice will depend upon the success with which the appeals for financial aid are met when the committee commences its work to-morrow. MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS = . FOR PUBLIC BENEFITS Directors of Merchants’ Association Discuss Matters of Interest to Community at Large. At a meeting of the board of directors }of the Merchants' Association, held yes- terday, Charles Bundschu, Foster P. Cole, W. P. Redington and F. H. Wheelan were appointed a committée to co-operate with similar committees from other local com- mercial organizations in making arrange- ments for a San Francisco day at the ap- proaching Bakersfield Street Fair and Carnival. Itewas decided, to call to the attention of the Board of Public Works the fact that there are at present seventy-five blocks and thirty crossings in the busi- ness district still paved with cobbles, and to recommend that an appropriation of £125,000 be included in the estimates of ‘the next tax levy for the repavement of ace cepted streets, exclusive of the work to be done on Third street. Recommenda- tions for the improvement of county roads will also be made by the assoclation to the Board of Public Works. The following named business men were elected to membership in the association: Horace L. Hill, William G. Loewe, John Parrott, Willlam 8. Tevis and E. S.

Reason for the great and increasing demand for shares of the Mer- genthaler-Horton Basket Machine Co..is not far to seek, It is due to popular approval of the Company’s plans and to popular comprehension of the Company’s great future. Previous publication of the great scope and money-earning power of this Company’s field of operations has been made in this newspaper. ‘Whole communities have become interested in the undoubted power of the Company's automatic basket-making machines to completely revolutionize the basket industry. It is safe to say that every county in every State in the Union has representation among the present share- holders. This company is composed of shareholders who are participating in increase of values as the various allotments of shares are taken up. The present allotment at .- 50 Cents a Share. (Par Value $1.00, Full Paid and Non-Assessable) is ‘being subscribed more rapidly than any previous allotment. This is because it is plain to all that the shares of this Company, which will control the prices and product of an important and growing ix_\dustry, must steadily advance as the Company’s plans develop into ac- tion.

The Famous Invenler’s Opinion of the Basket Machines now Cwned and Controlled by the Mergenthaler- * Horton Basket Machine Co. Full Story of Mr. Mergenthaler’s Connecton With These Machines. ‘Ottmar Mergenthaler, inventor-of the Linotype Machine and inventor of one of the Basket-Making Mackines of this company, made the follow= ing statement about one year before his death: : «This machine is as much a revolution in bas- ket-making as the Linotype has proven to bz in' typesetting, and | do not see why a company owning and coatrolling the patents should not receive an immense revenue.”’ Mr. Mergenthaler continued to take the deepest interest in the Basket Machine, and the last efforts of his life were in connection with the! Ma- chine and watching its operation. The patent on the Basket Machine invented by Ottmar Mergenthaler was issued to his estate December 31, 191, and is numbered 6%.,322. Copies of this patent may-be secured on application to the Patent Office in Wash- ington, or by-calling at any office of this Company, and each copy bears the assignment of all right and title In the patent to the Horton Basket Machine Company, which Company has been absorbed and is controlled by the Mergenthaler-Horton Basket Machine Co. NOTE.
