and
Cole
properties
at
Owen
Lake,
the
necessary
financing
having
been
secured
by
Mr.
Taylor
on
a
recent
trip
south.
Mining
machinery
and
camp
equipment
are
being
taken
in
from
Houston.
It
is
possible
that
as
many
as
forty
men
may
be
employed.
Major
Paton
will
be
engineer
in
charge
of
operations,
J.

will
be
Major
Paton's
assistant
and
H.
Stratford,
formerly

The
company
organized
by
M.r
Taylor
will
have
capitalization
of
$2,000,000
and
will
be
known
as-
the
Owen
Lake
Mining
and
Devel
opment
Co.
Mining
engineers'
reports
on
the
Owen
Lake
showings
are
flattering,
two
of
these
predicting
that
the
property
will
be
ready
for
a
mill
within
a
year.
Equipment
which
has
been
purchased
by
Mr.
Taylor
includes
no
less
than
five
engines,
ranging
from
18
to
105
h.p.,
two
compress
ors,
hoist,
steel
sharpener,
com
plete
sawmill
outfit,
etc.
and
a
tractor
has
been
purchased
to
haul
machinery
over
the
new
road
being
built
The
sawmill
plant
will
be
the
first
to
go
in
and
will
be
used
to
cut
lumber
for
the
buildings.
Under
the
development
program,
a
diesel
engine
and
large
compressor
will
be
established
at
the
mouth
of
Wrinch
Creek
and
from
this
point
a
crosscut
tunnel
will
be
started
to
tap
at
depth
the
several
strong
veins
exposed
on
the
surface,
this
operation
having
as
another
objective
continuation
to
the
Cole
property
involving
a
otal
of
60,00
feet
of
tunnel
work.'
Meantime,
a
smaller
compressor
plant
will
be
put
to
work
on
the,
Cole
property
and
a
shaft
will
LV
sunk
100
feet
from
which
depth
"tunnels
will
be
run

way
with
an
aver-
velopment
throughout
the
winter
on
his
Wildcat
property
at
Alice
Arm,
everything
being
now
Jn
readiness
to
commence
the
work.
Development
will
consist
of
cross-cutting
the
big
body
of
copper
ore
that
was
drifted
on
last
winter
and
early
spring
and
it
is
expected
tjhat
this
season's
work
will
develop
a
considerable
tonnage
of
good
ore.
At
about
1612
feet
from
the
portal
of
the
long
tunnel
being
driven
under
the
main
ridge
at
the
Big
Missouri
Mine,
which
is
being
developed
by
Consolidated,
por
phyry
similar
in
appearance
to
that
of
the
Premier
is
reported
to
have
been
found.
At
about
150
feet
from
the
point
where
the
pro-phyry
was
encountered,
cross-cuts
have
been
driven
either
way.
The
prophyry
is
interlaced
with
small
quartz
stringers
carrying
visible
free
gold,
some
of
the
stringers
being
very
rich.
A
large
body
of
the
ore
is
expected
to
be
of
commercial
ore.
Further
reports
are
to
the
effect
that
the
gold-bearing
zone
has
been
located
on
the
surface
and
traced
for
1500
feet,
a
number
of
men
being
employed
in
prospecting
the
surface.
Samples
of
the
ore
are
said
to
show
seams
up
to
half-an-inch
thick
of
the
precious
yellow
metal
as
well
as
