Otto Herlocker, Sumpter, Ore.
In 75 feet oatbe Gipsy King.
Otto Herlocker went out to the Gipsy
King mine Saturday, returning Sunday;
his purpose being to measure the tunnel,
which has been driven by contract, the
work having been done by W. H.
Rumery, S. Harrison and A. C. Otness.
It Is 7$ feet long. It was thought when
the contract was let that the ledge would
be cut In that distance, this being the
opinion of the engineer; but It has not
yet been encountered. There is every In
dicatlon, however, that the ledge Is only
a few feet away, surely not more than ten
or fifteen. At a meeting of the directors
Monday evening an arrangment was
made with the same men to continue
the tunnel through the ledge, work
on which has been resumed. Where the
tunnel now ends the rock Is extremely
hard, the formation being Identical with
that la the Evening Star, where it was
only ten feet thick, adjoining the wall of
the ledge. Secretary Herlocker, of the
company, says the King is the most at
tractive proposition he has seen in many
a long day of his mining experience. He
brought In a sack full of splendid speci
mens of ore, taken from the surface,
where the vein has been stripped for a
distance of 200 feet. The tunnel work
has been done strictly according to the
provisions of the contract, and he says a
better job could not be desired.
