Once again Is the Golconda. mine the star of attraction, with nil possi bilities Hint within a tiny or two the rich mine will have passed into the control of J. H. Robbins, treasurer of the Red Boy Consolidated Mines Com' nnnv. ' and resident of the Oregon the Sumpter American. From nnthoritative sources the America can state that on behalf of himself and associates in Pendleton and La Grande. Oregpn. who comnris rd the syndicate, that was so well re warded through their investment u; the Concord group, recently consoli dated with the famous Red Boy mine, Mr. Robbins is negotiating the trans for of the Golconda mines for himself and friends. While I'm papers have not yet been filed, it 's understood that the deal has progressed far enough to consider it an absolute certainty. It is understood that the transfer is based on a valuation of $400,000, of which amount $50,000 is to be expend ed in the development of the property and the balance to be paid to the Messrs. English. In view of the fact that the Messrs. English intend to install a modern deep sinking plant and begin exten sive development work very shortly, the securing of this valuable proper ty by Mr. Robbins will, to use an every day expression, "put a feather in his cap"and add another successful consummation of large mining enter prises to his record. The Golconda group and all appur tenances are incorporated in the Gol conda Gold Mniing Company, with an authorized capital stock of $1,000,000, par value shares $1, and though the property made a fine, record when steadily operated, it has been worked only at intervals during the past year and a half. Owing to his advanced age, Mr. English, Sr., is willing to sell the mine, and a short time since it was bonded to a Pittsburg syndicate who operated it with fair success, but failed to make the second payment, when it became due, and it reverted to the Messrs. English again. When the syndicate relinquished possession of the property, it is ru mored that they had literally gutted the mine and left It in bad condition. While it is true they milled consider able rich ore during their operations, a recent examination of the mine is said to have disclosed two rich pay shoots on the fourth and fifth levels, and that the mine is in very good condition. The following brief history shows how it advanced from a prospect to its present prominence, also proving that in. the Sumpter district, meritor ious prospects with true ledges, will, with depth and systematic develop ment, undoubtedly make dividend paying mines. The Golconda mine was located in the fall of 18S7 by Messrs. Beckwith and Taft, two pioneer prospectors. They performed the usual assessment work for 10 years and in 1837 sold It to the Messrs. English for a reported consideration of $24,000. The. latter immediaetly began a most thorough course of development work, driving a tunnel in on the ledge. As the depth was gained a good body of ore was opened up, the values continually in creasing. In the spring of 1898 a bromine chlorine plant, with a daily capacity of 100 tons, was erected and after CO days' use it was found not to be adapted to the character of ore then blocked out. The building was remodeled and a 20-stamp mill and vanners was in stalled. The result was highly satis factory and the capacity of the plant was increased a short time afterwards by the adoption of a four-foot Bryan mill. In the fall of 1900 the capacity of the mill was again increased by in stalling an additional 10-stamp. The plant today has a capacity of 40 stamps and is capable of treating about 120 tons of ore per day and is also equipped with 10-foot vanners. v The property has a hoist capable of sinking to a depth of 600 feet and last year a monster station pump was installed at the 100-foot levoi. A sensational treasure connected with the Golconda was the uncovering in .May, 1S99, of a body of ore which ran from $20,000 to $211,000 per ton. A shipment of this ore to the Shelby smelter, San Francisco, netted over $100,000, and it. has always been said that the shipment did not exceed four tons. in addition to the Golconda the group comprises the'Wide West, Tele phone, Century, Olympla, Oregon and Baltimore quartz claims, two mill sites, water right and about 500 acres of valuable timber lands. All those properties have been acquired by pur chase or right of location. me mm site is Improved with a water plant, developed to 150-horse power, electri cal transmission. All of the properties of the estate have been but slightly developed with the exception of the Golconda, on which about 3000 feet of work have been done. A tunnel 050 feet In length has been driven In on the vein and a shaft sunk, to a depth of be tween 500 nnd GOO feet. Levels have been established at each 100 feet and drifts run on the ledge both ways The Golconda and the Wide West are located on the mother lode, the other properties covering two parallel veins. A very important feature connect ed with this property is that surface assavs from open cuts across the ledge only averaged $1.60 per ton; at 50 feet depth the value had increased to $8 per ton and after real mining was instituted and depth gained the values became greater, the ledge wider and the uniformity of the ore bodies established. This vein is four to IS feet wide, with an average value of $15 per ton. In the tunnel driven on the ledge one pay shoot 30a feet in length, varying from six to 10 feet in width, was uncovered. The richest ore extracted from the mine, with the exception of the fabulously rich ore, was in the second level, where a pay shoot 65, feet in length, from 12 to 20 feet wide, returned values of $20 to $50 per ton.

Olympla OPEN DAY and NIGHT QUB LA FONTAINE, Prop. Wasbinnton & Columbia Road to Be Extended to That Place. Weston is to be made the terminus of the "high line" of the Washington & Columbia River Railway, says the Walla Walla Union. At least that is the rumor current among the business men of that place. At the present time Athena is the end of the exten sion of the "high line" from Helix and Athena is three miles from Wes ton. . For years has Athena supported two roads, and has had an outlet for her products to the Sound and to Port land. Weston had to content herself with the- Oregon Railroad & Naviga tion line to Portland. Now her citi zens say there is to be a change. In case the new line Is built, which Is looked for within a few numths the proposed route Is east from Athe na parallel with the Oregon Rant' id &' Navigation Company's t.ack to Weston. The yards and terminus will be situated on the hill at th 3 west end of Main street near the sM of All Saint's Episcopal church. At the pr.esent time the town has very poor railway accommodations. The depot of the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company is situated in the north part of the little city a mile from the business center. The exten sion of the "high line" would mean a great deal to the farmers, as practical ly all the wheat which leaves the Weston country at the present time is shipped over the Harriman line. To reach the Sound as conditions now ex' 1st one has to either go to Walla Walla or Pendleton and then transfer. The new road would mean direct com munication with Hunt's Junction and all points on the Northern Pacific. FOR Baby's Bath USE CUTICURA SOAP.

A study of the new Spokane city di dectory shows that the families of Smith, Johnson, Brown and Jones comprise about two per C3nt of the city's population. The Smiths, of course, lead. There was never a city directory issued in a country where the English language is spokeu that such was not tho case. There are 262 Smiths in Spokane. The Johnsons I come next. There are 216 of them. Then come the Browns with 120, nnd the Jones are a close forth with 109. These four families together number 713.
