And now it appears that not only Bohemia and Blue river in Lane county abound in gold, silver, copper and other minerals, but new discoveries and the development thereof gives authentic report that Lane county is amply supplied with mineral deposits, even to the very edge of the Willamette valley. lfor a number of years croppings of coal have been discovered at various places throughout Lane county, some about Cottage Grove, Eugene, and down on the Siuslaw river. However no one has looked for gold quartz to be brought con spicuously to the front in the lower foot-hills of the Willamette valley, but a Nugget man was informed through reliable sources a few days ago that parties were at work upon a newly discovered ledge a few miles south of Eugene and ore taken out there at a A PULL STOCK !

The latest discovery which is at tracting considerable attention just now comes from a short distance from Creswell a thriving little town about twelve miles north of Cottage Grove on the Southern Pa cific railroad. Mr. J. M. Sherwood, proprietor of the Hotel Sherwood, of this city, was a visitor to that town last Friday, and upon his return he brought several specimens of very rich ore from the newly discovered ledge, and irom that gentleman the Nugget man is iudebted for the following: Some time ago after a small freshet, a number of pieces of mineralized rock were picked up in a little draw on the farm ot Zeuiker and Ruggles, consisting of 1700 acres. This discovery set the Messrs. Zeniker and Ruggles at work prospecting and a well de fined ledge was soon discovered which, it is said can be traced for a distance of two miles by the croppings. Development work was immediately commenced and upon assaying it was found that the sur face rock weut $4 to the ton and at a depth of twenty-five feet it assayed $22 to the ton. No one has ever thought of prospecting in the vicinity in which this development work is going on, but it is now demonstrated beyond a doubt that Lane county is destined to become a great mining center. It is said the work has pro gressed to a depth of about 28 feet, and 10 feet on the tunnel. The ledge runs north and south directly opposite to those of the Bohemia district. A story is told that some 10 years ago au old miner was stopping in the neighborhood of Creswell and one day while roaming over the hills he picked up some rock which attracted his attention nnd retaining n piece, later on, after having left there he guve it into the hands of an assayer who after making the assay, questioned him as to where he obtained it, saying that if he had enough of that class of ore he would have as good a thing as he need want. The miner took the hint and returned to Creswell and did his best to re trace his steps to the place where he found the specimen he gave the assayer, but could not locate the place again. He knew that it was in a little branch near an old house but as he did not give it much at tention at the time, and being a stranger in the locality he did not take his bearings. It is said that the work now going on is thought to be in the identical spot where the miner 10 years ago picked up the rock that promised so much. Miners are beginning to cast their eyes Bohemiaward, and as soon as the weather will permit, work will be pushed in that rich mining district in a manner that is sure to bring about most satis1 factory results. As an old miner said the other day. As far as the quality and quantity of gold pro ducing ore is concerned, no dis coveries of recent date can surpass to any extent those developed in the Bohemia camps; but the diffi culty heretofore has been the in ability of those who were the first to prospect in the Bohemia district to interest capital. As everyone knows who knows anything at all about mining, it takes capital to bring a mining district to the front and make investments there profitable. With one or two ex ceptions capital thus far is an un heard of thing in the Bohemia camps,, but in those instances where capital has been secured, no failures have been made, and every camp that has been sufficiently de veloped to cause one to expect re turns at all, dividends have been realized. Superintendent J. W. Cook, ot the Musick mine, who arrived in Cottage Grove a few days ago will go into the mines as soon as the weather settles and will have thi new 10-stamp mill under full blast by the first of June- Pros- pecting has been going on at the Musick all winter and Superin tendent Cook is very much pleased with the result. In an interview with Superm1 tendent Cook a reporter was iti formed that he was of the opinion that prospects were very bright for the Bohemia camp, that they were gradually growing in popularity, and that mining men throughout the several cities he had visited the past winter were beginning to take au active interest in them, and as it is authentically stated that the development work shows a grade of ore at least on a par with the other great mines of the county, he can see no reasou why capital once directed this way will not become fastened in the mines and produce the results long desired. The following miners who have beeu visiting in Cottage Grove for some time returned to Bohemia this week: Jack Klopensteine, Henry Johnson, Al Buyrne, Al White, Will Leeses, and Ed Jenks, foreman of the Noonday. Goo'd luck to you, gentlemen. John Walter of the London Times, left as a legacy to his daughter one of the advertising columns of the Thunderer. It is said that this legacy brought the lady a steady income of $1:50 per day.
