WORK AT THE GREENBACK
Description of Our County's
Foremost Qutvrtz Mine.
The Portland Daily Journal has the
following regarding the great Green
back mine :
This mine comprises half dozen or
more patented claims and a much
larger area of laud used to facilitate
work. The company has legal ex
istence nnder the name of the Green
back Gold Mining company. W. It.
Brevoort is president, Carey V.
Thompson, manager, C. B. Hanson
mill superintendent, and Chas.
Brnckin, laboratory man. More than
11,000 feet of development has been
dona in the mine, and the equipment
consists of a 30 and a 10-stamp mill,
amalgamating and concentrating and
cyadiniug tailings'aud concentrates.
The Greenback was located iu 1SU7
by Ed. F. Hanuum aud D. L. Brown
ing. Atfer profitable surface work,
the locators sold iu 1893, the principal
portion of the preseut n'.nungement
buying. Costly litigation followed
quickly afttr purchase, C. F. Drown
coutendiug that his original location
overlapped the Greenback property.
The purchasers used this litigation
to have the original purchase price
reduced, giving the vcudors the alter
native of making tlio title good by
defending in tho pending action, or
accepting f 10, 000 aud letting tho pur
chasers light the suit. The latter was
accepted, aud after appealing to high
tribunals, the purchasers vindicated
their title.
Manager Thomp'on had charge, from
the first, lie installed a five-stunip
mill at the portal of the fifth level
aud later iucrcasid this to 10 and then
15. Two years ago a 30-stamp mill
was completed ou the ninth level,
having 10 stamps in the old mill at
the fifth. Since then 40 stamps have
bem in commission most of the time,
the old mill running during the wet
season when water power is abundant,
to treat ores from the extreme upper
levels. Iu dry weather, oue to two
months of fall, the new mill is run by
steam power, the remainder of the
time being actuated by wator, for
which purpose two niue-foot wheels
have been installed.
Two hand sorters work ou the up
per mill floor, throwing out larger
coarse pieces of diorito. This sorting
follows sorting in the mine, w here an
effort is made to eliniinato waato.fr cni
ore. Two Blake 8x10 inch brnaki n
receive ore passing a ono and a half
inch grzzly aud that returned from
the hand sorting. Stamps weigh
1,000 pounds, aud are given a stroke
of six inches at tho rate of 107 to 110
drops a minute. Crushing is to .10
mesh, and amalgamating plates aro 1ft
feet long, being stepped. Four bump
ing tables receive the product from
the plates, saving a light percentage
of concentrates. Tailings are de
livered through Butters distributors
to three tanks of 185 tons each.
Slimes and sands separators, with a
monteju and compressed air filter
press, have been provided for treating
fine and coarse sands apart, but it
was found in p' act Ice that there was
not enough in the slimes to warrant
their handling in this manner. The
filter press is of the most modern
pattern used iu the Kalgoorlie dis
trict, Australia, wliero this piess ori
ginated, but it was used very briefly,
as the management fouud that values
are so thoroughly freo that little is
loKt iu slimes. Tailings aro kept in
a 0110 quarter of oue per cent solution
for 15 days. Concentrates are piped
to a separate plant, given a strong
alkaline wash and subjected to a one
per cent solutiou for HO or 40 days,
with results highly sal infaetory to the
management, which find this treat
ment far more profitable so far than
hauling 11 miles to a railroad and
shipping 300 mPca to a smelter. The
concentrate plant l.as been operating
since the first, of the year. Avery
heavy percentage of Greenback ore
in all upper workings is free, there
being but little sulphide. This mine
has made oue of tho most notable
efforts in handling concentrates
known to the state, and is working
along nearly the same lints as the
lied Boy adhered tj when running
full blast.
There are several veins crossing the
Greenback group ou close parallel
lines, but nearly all won has been
devoted to the Greenback. This is a
narrow veiu, if tho firm quartz de
fines its bouuds, but three to five feet
of diorite oil the foot wall, whic h hm
been shattered and ct minted by
silica, is milled. This accounts for
the economy aud safety in sorting out
all large pieces, for solid diorite re
mains massive after breaking down.
j The vien is said to shelve or wave iu
1 dip, caused by a considerable novo-
meut of the formation. Variation!
j from 45 degrees to the vertical on
jlowir levels mark the downward
coarse. All workings are adits down
to tho ninth level, and a shaft has
j been sent down to the 12i0 the hoist
and pumps Used 011 the bOO level being
: actuated by water powe' condutcid
; through the miue from upper work-
I ings, and is later used iu the mill for
j power and milling purposes. No defl
i nite information as to condition of the
vein in the deepest levels Is given out,
the management denying The Journal
1 correspondent adniisisou under ground
whtn applying for the same. A ser
pentine dike Is said to cut across I he
system on the eastern boundary of
: present work, aud some engineers,
, thinking the serpentine (hallow, argue
; that the 1100 aud 1200 levels should
' get under it, flodiDg the vein contin
uous beyond where it has been mined
I above. The length cf the shoot is uot
stated, but is understood to give open
stops of fair sequence for 1200 to 1500
feet. No. 9 level has a length of about
2000 feet. Not, S and 5 having re
spective length of 500 and 900 feet
Tho 1200 level reached is on the dip of
the vein, aud not vertical. Iustopiug
impoverished areas of tmall dimension
wjre occasionally encountered.
A 10-drill compressor is on the prop
erty, aud from it to 10 power drills
are in constant use when development
is full blast All mechanical arrange
ments of the Greenback are of very
high standard, aud the mining is
taken as a splendid type of holding to
an ore body, wherever it goes.
DEAD MAN ON THE TRACK
Grewsoine Obstacle to TreJn at
Myrtle Creek.
A decidedly growsouie discovery was
made by tho Southern Paoifio section
crow about 9 o'clock Tuesday morning
a short distance north of Myrtle Creek
at a lonely point on the railroad.
While runuiug over that section of the
road the crow fouud scattered along
the track several hundred feet, the
mangled remains of a man who had, it
is thought, been murdered aud placed
ou tne railroad during the night In the
hope that a passing traiu would cover
op the deed of the murderers. This
conclusion was reached from the na
ture of a severe wound fouud over the
eye of the unfortunate man, which ap
peared to have baeu inflicted with a
club or bar of iron prior to the cuts
aud bruiBes sustained from being run
over by a passing traiu. Another ver
sion is that he was killed either from
falling asleep on tho track or falling
from a train on which he was beating
his way. On oue portion of the re
mains were fouud discharge papers
from tho U. S. army identifying the
iau ns H. Cross of Ohio. He waa a
Spanish American war veteran, abont
25 years of ngo. Plaiudealer.
A TRAGEDY AT SISKIYOU
Young Man la Killed by Railroad
Train.
Sydney K. Sheldon, a youug man
of abont 20 years of age, was instantly
killed at tho mouth of Siskiyou tun
nel last week by a Southern Paoifio
freight train. From indications,
Sholdon bad been "riding tho rods,"
and was either ovorcomo by gas dur
ing the trip through the tunnel or
went to sleep and f II off. His body
was badly mangled by the car wheels.
Coroner Cameron was called to the
sceuo and his investigations bought
out tho facts about as above stated.
Letters and papers found on the body
iudicatod that the yonug man was of
a roaming disposition, working hero
and there, but never long in oue
place. A letter was found on the
body from Miss May Wood, of Chica
go, and Coroner Cameron telegraphed
her for information concerning the
dead man's relatives. In reply she
gavo tho address of his brother, L,
U. Sheldon, of Portland, and upon
communicating with him, orders were
received to ship the remains to Port
land for Interment, which was ac
cordingly dnuo Thursday morning.

A SUICIDE AT .ROSEBURG
Girl Hangs Hertelf With Close
line From. Pear Tree.
Ill, despondent at d weary of life,
Mis Lillian Farrer, the beautiful
and accomplished 21-year-old daughter
of F. H. Farrer, superintendent of
the Roseburg Water, Light and Power
Company, brought her sufferings and
troubles to a tragio end Wednesday
eveniug by hanging herself iu a large
pear tree back of the family home, in
North Roseburg.
For some tiruo past she has bocu
engaged in stenography work at In
tervals In local ollices and ou tho eve
of her death, she called on a young
lady friend in North Roseburg. Re
turning home soon after nightfall sho
informed members of her family that
sho had received au Invitation to stay
over night with this young lady
friend, whose parouts are neighbors ol
the Farrer family, aud theu took her
departure, which was tho last she was
seen by anyoue until her lifeless body
was disooverod by her younger sister
after daybreak this morning, dangling
at the end of a rope attached to a
limb of a large pear tree, which
stands iu the door yard at the family
home, her feet being but a few inches
above the grouud.
It appears that upon leaviug the
room she secured a part of the cotton
clothes lino and climbing upon a car
penter's trestle or horse, fastened oue
end of the rope securely to a limb of
the pear tree then forming a slipknot,
placed the loop over her head, so-
cured it abont her ueck then stepped
from the trcBtlo, a horrible death re
sulting soon thereafter from strangu
lation. An examination of the body
on ,1116 following morning Indicated
that life .had been extinct for some
hours, hence it is probublo 'that the
rash act was committed soon after she
left the house on Weduesday evtuiug.

Inspecting Property.
8. J. Hullihan and J. C. Edwards,
ln'Ctors for the California Sugar
Pine Box & Lumber Coinpauy, hiving
headquarters in Sau Franc I sc.', and
operating mills in Oregon, California
and Arizona, arrived in Grants Pass
Monday morning from California, to
inspect their company's business and
mill pros rty iu this city. Mr. Ed
wards only reniaiuel iu town until
the 9:55 a. m. train, whin he left for
Hilts, where his company is operat
ing a big mill. Mr. Hollihan will
remain iu Grauts Pass fur several
days.
Mr. Hollihan stated that his com
pany has their yards iu better shape
than for several seasons iat in that
they have their surplus stock well
cleaned up aud orders come iu at a
rate that will preclude their carrying
over any largo stock to next w-asoa.
As to trade oouditions and prospects
for next year. Mr. liollll sn thinks
that they are of the best as there will
be less than the usual quantity of
lumber to be carried over aud the
outlook it good for a largo demand
for lumber in all the coast cities as
well as for the export trade.

OPENED TO SETTLEMENT
Land Eliminated From the
Rogue River Withdrawal.
There is much rejoicing in South
ern Oregon over tie notice flora
Washington that the forest lands of
Southern Oregou withheld from entry
several yean ago, aro soon to be
thrown open to buyers, settlers aud
squatters. From preparations being
made, it is evidont that there will be
a great rush for those lauds as soou
as they are released.
Tho lands hero are not the regular
forest reserves, but they cover a large
area of Josephine, Curry aud Jackson
counties, iu Oregon, and parts of Sis
kiyou aud Del Norte counties, In
California. Practically all this
land is mountainous, and not much
of it will be available for immediate
tarmiug, except on a small scale, cr
as stock range. Somo of it is covered
with sparse timber, but a great por
tion of it has a dense growth of Or
aud pine, with considerable sugar
pine, which ranks close to the famous
redwood iu point of general value.
There is uo question but that the
throwing open of these lands will bo
of great benefit to this section of the
state, as the reserves surrounds Jose
phine county ou three sides, practi
cally "bottling" it up. It likewise
was detrimental to mining progress
as prospectors are alow iu prospecting
hinds that aro held iu close title by
thh Government A good many
squatters have already boen planed on
locations, and others will be taken up
rapidly, as the uumber of sawmills
aud the great demand for lumber
ni'iko timber lands, even in the more
remote parts, of exceptional value.
So jio of the luud is yet uusurveyed.
Following is a complete list of
those lauds included in the Rogue
Rivor forest reserve withdrawal in
Southern Oregon, which are to be
immediately thrown opeu to settle
ment by tho local laud ofllcers at
Roseburg, and which are to be open
