Much Development Work Is Now Being Done in This State. i T A rich find of gold s rcported to have been made in Shasta County, near the old-time mining town of Shasta. The en- tire community is reported to be excited. The porphyry dike that is the subject of ! discussion is about one mile from Shasta | on the road to Iron Mountain and on! ground that has been tramped over for haif a century by prospectors. Not long ago a nich porphyry dike was found on Middle Creek, below Shasta, and this set on foot farther search. Of the latest dis- | | covery the Redding Searchlight says: Krank Marsh, halfbreed Idlan who hae | been engaged in prospecting in company with | Wiiliam Heflelinger, the Constable and black- | smith of Shasta, recently Giscovered a porphyry | dike less than a mile from Shasta, on the hill- | slde just west of the Shasta-Keswick and Iron | Mountain wagon road near the Indian ranche & eria, which has long stood by the roadside. The dike can be traced across the road, but | rich discovery was found | is upon ground belonging to the children of A. | H. Sprague of Shasta, as the heirs of their maternal grandfather Like the dike discov- ered by Small, this dike contains stringers of | quartz, but the whole body is a much darker oior than that of the Small property, although there is only # suriace showing at the present [y and the matter may me lighter with depth. Supervisor Grant A. Schroter, who was down from Shasta Friday, brought with him | and cxhibited about town several specimens | trom the new find. The largest, a plece of red- stained quartz which had evidently been taken from the wall, was smeared upon one side with gold. He also had three smaller specimens, two 57 them showing remarkably high values in free gold in the porphyry, and the other a small | quartz spectmen, stuff. impregnated with the vellow ! The owners of the discovery have not | rtained the width or length of the de- | nor have they had any assays made to ascertain the values carried by the peculiar | formation. The discovery of Marsh and Heffel- | finger is not more than a mile and a half dis- tant from that of Small, but it is on the hiliside | which drains into Rock Creek, waile Small's | property is on Middle Creek. | IN NEVADA COUNTY. | The Grass Valley Tidings tells of good | times In mining in quartz and gravel on? Cement Hill In Nevada County. There | were formerly workings all along the' ridge known as Cement Hill. The Tidings | ys of recent operations: The Tobiasson place, known as the old John- Bull ledge, runs north and south and dips In the early seventies it wa 00 feet, and som But ny 10 the east worked to a depth of about very high grade ore was taken therefrom. it was worked in such a manner that It yielded no than low grade ores do by the pro- | cesses now in use. The concentrates were all lost, and the ledge runs from 4 to 8 per cent in sulphurets. There is another ledge running east and west that dips to the north. Both are two to five foot veins. On the north side of | the ridge fs another vein owned by David Whidden & Co., which has been worked only n the croppings and produced some very good ore. It is a continuation of the old Soggs ledge, now known as the Merrifield. G. W. | Ragon's claim on the same vein also was | worked in the early seventies to a depth o seventy feet and ore on the north side of the shaft was found, but none of the concentrates were saved. The sulphurets ran to b or 6 per cent and were of high grade. Southeast on the same vein is the Mount Auburn, which was worlked from 1881 to 1883, with a ten-stamp anill. Four or flve thousand tons of ore wae worked oa the north side of the shaft down to the 100-foot level. The shaft itself is 600 feet deep. Next is the Spanish, a part of the Champion company’s property, and the Provi- dence. There is a channel from the head of the Na- tive American ravine that runs in an erly direction, varying a little to the southeast. in which are found several good sravel claims, which have been worked to a greater or less ioins on the north of these claims and Charles Cleveland has forty acres on the west of Rich ards. Across the cighty acres belonging to G. W. Ragon the gravel was worked by the Em- | pire company from 1856 to. 1858 in the main | Channel only for a distance of 500 fest, and | | | produced over $100,000. It has since been suc- cessfully worked on the south rim above water level and in the ravimes breaking off from it on Ragon Flat, a conservative estimate of the amount taken out being $75,000, Mining operations in Tuolumne County are on the up grade. The deep gravel to be Magnet. Bonds have been secured on the Brady and Shine placer ground and work has begun. At the Shawmut mine, near | Chinese Camp, another furnace is being built and the chlorination plant is to be enlarged. The force at work at the Mount Jefferson mine in Groveland has been in- creased. The Little Boy claim, near the Tarantula mine at Columbia, has been sold to J. Moyle. The Manhattan mine has been sold to the Yankee Hill Mining Company. BE. E. Trefethen has bought the Cleveland, McKinley, Hoffman and New York placers, near Sonora. The Golden Annie mine, near the mouth of Big Creek, on the Tuoiumne River, has been bought by J. I. Raggio. In Trinity County the Hoodoo mine, which is near the Enterprise mine, at Coleridge, has been bonded to a company having an option on the Eneterprise prop- erty. The Mining and Scientific Press says: H. D. Allert, secretary of the Continental Mining Company of Langdon, S. D., says the company has bought the Jones group of placer mines in McRea Rldge mining district, near Johnsville. J. M. Engle and B. L. Jones, the former owners, retaining a small_interest, the latter acting as superintendent. The mines are eight miles southwest of Johnsville, near the head of Nelson creek, and cover about two miles of the “blue lead” chaunel. tinental Mining Company proposes equip and develop the group and w three reservoirs for storage of water. and also a restraining dam. Water will be lied under 450 feet head. There are to be flumes and pipes for three monitors. An electric lighting plant will be put in. MAKE MANY LOCATIONS. Fifty mining locations have been made in Mariposa County since March 1. Ac- cording to the Mining and Scientific Press at Whitlock, the Austin Group Mining and Milling Company s putting on more miners and is increasing its development work, Two shifts are working in the Golden Gate tunnel, another of the claims bonded by the company. It is intended to run a tunnel from the Golden Gate through the Coronado to con- nect with the ehaft being sunk on the Ragan for a working tunnel and also to prospect the Ragan ledge. Through this tunnel the ore can be handled more cheaply and brought more closely to the mill. Much activity at Kennett at the Bala- klala mines is reported by the local papers. There is now much activity at ti Balakiala mines on Squaw Creek, near Ken. net, and everything points to a rapld and marked Increase in the scope of operations. A number of buildings, which are being bullt with a view to permanency and comfort, are now “in the course of construction. The plans outlined call forthe erection of no less than eleven of them, including offices and living quarters for Manager W. W..Adams and staff, assay offices, hoarding house and mess house for the miners and laborers, and_buildings for other purposes. There are now fifty men em- ployed at the mines. As soon as accommoda- tions can be prepared for additional men the force will be materially Increased. A sub- station wili soon bLe built at the mine by the Northern California Power Company to accom- modate the transformers which will be re- quired to reduce the voltage on the electri: transmission line from the company’s sub. station at Keswick. With the construction of { the substation, the Balaklala Company will construct a powerhouse for the accommodation of the motors which will furnish power for the operation of power drills and other machinery at the mine. i BUILDING UP BARRIERS. ‘Work upon the second barrier on the Yuba River at De Guerre Point, near Marysville, will begin during the coming summer and construction upon barrier No. 1 will be resumed directly. The Grass Valley Unlon says: Three carloads of machinery arrived S day for the New York-Grass Valley mine, in Which G. W.

When remonstrance was made, and the suggestion proffered that more carriages should be put on, or extra traing run, the railway officlals gasped. No such condition had ever arisen before and they did not know how to solve the probiem. It was not that they were bound by precedent or custom. It was simply that they did not know how to act under the strange condition. They began thelr upward Toad to civilization by taking France for their model. French- men bullt their first ralilway.

Di have to be materially changed and in all things else the United | States seems to be in the ascendant. | From the land of the stars and stripes | the Jap gets hig engines, his machinery, | his tobacco, his trolley cars and his clvi and mechanical engineers. | ‘When one considers the vast stride in- | telligently and deliberately taken by Jap- an during the last thirty-five years, you cannot but have the greatest respect and | admiration for the people. There is no| similar instance in history. mance of a great mation. And looked at from this point of 'w there is nothing ! =0 absorbingly interesting in the world | to-day. The bronze and lacquer work are real and great art, judged by what- ever standard you wish. But when these | things have been said, I conceive that the | tale of legitimate pratse is ended both for the country and the people, and it is time | to turn to the other side of the shield. Every one has heard of the dishonesty | of the Japanese. Personally, I have re- celved the best of fair dealing from shop- keepers and Innkeepers. But I have ask- | ed men, Englishmen and Americans, who | have been in business in Japan all the| way from thirty to seven years, and the | verdict is unanimou: The largest per- centage of honesty among Japanese mer- ' chants, manufacturers and business men | that any one has ventured is 10 per cent. My informants say that the higher polit- ical officers are honest and spotless, but all the lower ones are open to bribes. | Such statements, based, of course, upon opinfon and not upon statistics, may be | very misleading and usually are so. But| when there is such a consensus of opin- ion among white men one must accept! it as substantially true until he is able to get better evidence. So much has been written about the | extraordinary and extravagant beauties of the scenery that it seems like a voice crying in the wilderness to try to write of it in other terms. The inland sea is | pretty, nothing more. I should say that| the coast of Malne, almost anywhere, could give it a liberal discount, and I am sure that neither Eggemoggin Reach nor | Fox Island thoroughfare ought to Mi mentioned in the same month with it, S0 | vastly do they surpass it. The mountain | districts of Miyanoshita and Hakone, whence one views Fuji-san aright, are attractive, with a mild and inoffensive ruggedness that does not approach to grandeur. Fuji-san itself is well worthy of worship. In all its beauty and peace- fuiness it raises its snow-capped head frcm the sea level with the proud grace of a noble woman. It is as fortunate in its situation as in its contour. But even it has not the inspiration of grandeur, beautiful though it is. Kipling has said | that one who knows and understands Fuji-san will know and understand Ja- pan. That, of course, is not true. But I think that It is true to say that one who does not see how the Japanese have come to hold their mountain sacred wiil never have admiration for or sympathy with them. Again at Nikko the traveler is dis- appointed. The far-famed temples there are outdone by those at Tokio, about | which little has been written.

RAND ORGANIZER ANDREW MOCKER returned recently from a visit to Elk Grove Parlor No. 41, Native Sons of the Golden West, and ! shortly afterward started for the south- land in the interest of the order. He will establish new parlors where fhere are none at this time and will extend his tour to San Diego, canvassing the intermediate territory en route. The parlors of Santa Clara County held a joint meeting and celebration in San Jose on May 18 in honor of A. B. Barker, recently elected grand trustee, during the grand parlor session in Bakersfield. There was an interesting programme of musical and literary numbers and congratulatory speeches and refreshments were served. ‘The affair was directed by George P. Bull of Palo Alto Parlor, C. H.
