CUVSTAI, INCOKI'OKATK!).-- I,ast week wn luoorporutcd tltc Crystal Consolidated Mining Com puny of Cottage Grove. The cnpital Htock IhJi.ooo.ooo divided Into 1,000,000 shares of the par value of $i per share. The principal oflTice to in Cottnge Grove and the incorporators tire nil business men of this place. They arc II. I). Scott, V. I). Wheeler, Frank Jor dan, G. W. Uoyd, I'. IJ. Phillips nnd A. II. Hcagle. There has been set asttie oh treasure stock 500,000 shales, the proceeds of the sale of of which is to he used for develop tnent work. The company's prop crty consists of the Kvn J., located on Chicken Ridge; the Crystnl on the Johnson Meadow, trail, and the Transvaal on the Champion Creek The Eva J. has shown fine prospects containing free gold, and the ledge ns now opened shows four feet of Holid ore. The Crystal and Trans vaal have well defined walls, be tween which is from two to three feet of good base ore. It is the intention of this company to accumulate sufficient funds by the sale of stock to inaugurate in the spring energetic and continuous development of these splendid properties. A Nuw Stkikk in Hiu.hna. Last week the force working in the new tunnel of the Helena when in 225 feet ran into a splendid body of base ore carrying gold, silver, copper and lead, which runs over $100 per ton. The whole of the face of the tunnel is now in an ore chute. Superintendent Hchnc brought out some specimens this week and it is mighty fine rock to look at. He has put a force of men to work on Helena No 2 this week fixing up the camp, building cabins, etc, and will soon start running a tunnel on that property. Supplies will be shipped in for all winter and there will be no let up in the development work. The Helena is running night and day on high-grade ore and the ore bins are kept full all the tunc. TtlK IIOMK TaI.UNT Pl.AY. .. At thcvOpera House on Saturday evening vvlll be presented "The Curtain Lifted or Revealing the Dread Secrets of Iuitutioii," by members of the order of Coming Men of America. The Nugget re porter alter witnessing a rehearsal must say that the play is funny, laughable and in some parts quite realistic. The boys have got their parts well in hand and will make a fine showing. As a take-off on the iuitatiou ceremonies of secict so cieties it is indeed good. The remainder of the program is com posed of specialties and each and nil arc good. The play well deserves a crowded house and if the weather is airly good the hall will be full nnd all will go home feeling that they have been well repaid for their attendance and had good value for the small admittance fee. TIIK LI! JtOV COMPANY. 11 nero ami join Located and What Will Make 11 a J)lvt dend I'll yer. NititDito Anotiikk Board. When the repairs to tho bridge were completed it was thought that ample protection was assured to all of our little folks, but the attention of the Nugget man was this week called to the fact that there should have been another board lower down along the overhanging side to keep tho little toddlers from slipping tinder and into the river. It is all right in dry weather, but when the rain comes down that walk will be awful slippery and very dangerous for the wee little ones. The attention of our City Fathers is most earnestly called to that portion of the walk with the lippe that they will orderthe neces sary board put on. His First Skkmon. On Sunday morning last Rev. K. F. Zimmerman preached his first sermon here at the M. E. Church. He took his text from Revelations, Apostle John's vision of paradise. The reverend gentleman is a most entertaining talker ancHogical rens oner and he got right close to his hearers. He has started off well and his mission here bids fair to bear good fruit. The membership was not out in the force it should have been to greet the new preacher, but he is an earnest and stirring man of God and it will not be long . jicfbre he will round up the flock mid have a full fold. The Lo Roy and War Eagle mining claims now comprising the Le Roy Mining Company are situ nun on tne uortiicast Hide o I'airvicw mountain in the Golden Courier Gulch, three-quarters of a mile north of the Music mine in the center of Hohciuia mining dis trict, Lane County, Oregon. un the 1,0 Koy property two well-defined ledges have been cx posed by surlncc open cuts for 1 distance of 600 feet. A shaft has been sunk to feet at the confluence of the north, south, east and .west veins, exposing a large chute of galena ore. The veins vary from 5 to eight feet in width, showing a strong and permanent ore body assaying high in gold, silver, cop per and lead. The veins are true fisures and traceable for a distance of over two miles, on which lode a number of good mines are now being operated, viz: the Helena, Helena No 2, the Laura, Baltimore group, California nnd others. The formation of the county rock is porphyritic audesitc. These claims have an abundance of timber and water for all mining and milling purposes, and arc situ atcd within a few hundred feet of the proposed railroad terminus. This property is so situated that the ore can be easly curried to the tracks of the contemplated railroad by gravitation trams. Systematic nnd continuous .development will be carried on all winter. Ample supplies are now being shipped to the mines, and it is confidently ex pected that in a short time much ore will be taken out and piled on tne dumps to await reduction or shipment. Samples of the ore now being taken out can be seen at the company's office. The stock of this company is now being placed upon the market nt a figure much less than its par value, but only a liuiitcd amount of stock is being sold to provide working capital. This is one of the finest base propositions in that district and those who now secure certificates of its stock will indeed be fortunate. The business men ofCottage Grove, knowing well the merits of this splendid property, are subscribing liberally to its stock, feeling sure that the future will bring to them handsome dividends for their present smull outlay. Missionary Work. I. II. Bingham came down from Portland this week. This is his first visit here in nearly a year and his many friends were indeed glad to greet him. He has betd doing some missionary work in the inter est of harmony and to promote the Cottage Grove and Bohemia rail road. So far as he has been able to ascertain there is not the least dis position to impede the progress of the road in any way, so far as right of roadway is concerned. There seems to be a general desire on the part of all through whose land the road will pass to do all in their power to assist. This is ns it should be. The one thing most needed for the advancement of this section is a reiiroaa. it will give tue miners a chance to turn their ore into coin, and with that coin they will buy everything the farmer can raise and pay him the top-notch price right at his own door. It is to be hoped tnat no one turougli merce nary motives will attempt to roll a stove in the pathway of this enter prise, and that all will manfully put their shoulders to the wheel and push it along. Moved. The County rock crusher which has been operating for some time past at Saginaw was on Wednesday moved to Walker, at which point a considerable stretch of road will be put in good repair.
