cerning the ledget in the Blue River mining

Work on the Cnvius mine, near the sum
mit of Treasure hill, about oue mile above

tunnel is iu some fifty feet aud the ledge i
seven feet wide aud contain rock that assay
$100 per tun in gold. The tniues in the sa
lens district ou the McKcuzie are looking
well, but not much work is being done now,
except on the Templeton claim. They were
cross-cutting when the writer left aud did
not kuow the width of their vein yet. More
development work and less local ;ug in this
new mining district would help matters out
greatly just uow, for it it hard word to cou
vtnee the Oregon prosp.ctor that oue claim
opened up iu shape to show it value i
worth a duzeu unopened claim. Nearly all
the miners are home for the election, aud
the past week the claims are nearly nil de
serted. Last Friday Messrs. (. A. Dvson,
J W Moore, J 11 Wilson, W S Powell, Jauic
Driver, D, Stsmli-h and William Hartley
arrived home hern from the Lm key Boy
uiliie. Hard rock was encountered that broke
SiVcial diillt and letanlce hoik greatly, but
scams nt quail, are found which c-oulaiu
line gold and much water is coming in the
face, which all indicate close proximity to
the ledg. The tunnel is now iu a distance
of I-'.' teet aud some ninety feet below the
surface. A new tunnel 'was run through
the ledge last week sixteen feet below the
upper shaft aud the ledge was found to he
uearly twelve feet wide, standing nearly
perpendicular aud containing free gold by

A limited number of our citizens might
have beeu considerably excited for a time
last Sunday bv the appearance of a monster
ou the hillside southwest of town that seem
ed to resemble a winged hoiso but if such
was the case their excitement was dispelled

horse running away with an overcoat which
had been made a stilMitute for a bum. The
following uolice which may (or tuny not)
bo seen posted iu a conspicuous place nlxnit
town will serve as further explanation:
"Found Oue groy overcoat, identified by
several persons as oue frequently seen iu the
possession of a young man, of Pleasant
Hill. Owner will please call uud settle costs
at ouco or I shall make it a present
to my pa. Truly, Geo. II."
