MfflYITY AT
New York Capital to Devel
op This Great Property.
Stamps to Drop Right
Away. Great Mill
For the New
I Iomestakc.
The last two weeks have wit
nessed great activity at tho Jose- i
phine mine. Several of the prin
cipal officers visited tho property I
and inspected the work being done
by Cnpt. Jaquish, and later the,
president of the Mining and Do- 1
velopment Company of Wall
Street, New York, came down and
spent some days going carefully
over the property.
Recent developments have dem
onstrated what Cnpt. Jaquish has
always contended since he left the
great mining camp of the west,
and cast his lot in with the mi
nors of this district, namely: that
the Joshphine is one of the great
est mines in the world.
The Summerour vein one of
tho minor ore deposits of the Jo
sephine, has been opened up
showing a four foot face of $28 GO
ore from a newly discovered shoot
on the same hill nearby. An
ounce of gold was taken from a
hole less than eighteen inches
across and about the same depth
at the outcrop. This means ore
of fabulous value. The shoot is
being followed up and Captain
Jaquish expects to open up an
other Shotgun vein or something
even richer.
It will bo remembered that the
Shotgun vein, on the sumo prop
erty, is one of the richest veins in
the state.
It has been determined to com
mence working the Summerour
vein at once and machinery will
be on the ground by next week to
put the company’s mill in opera
tion. Ten stamps will commence
dropping right away and the re
maining batteries will be put in
position and others added as
rapidly as possible. Preparations
for hydraulicking the big low
grade saprolite deposits will con
tinue without interruption and
the outlook: is encouraging to the
whole district.
It has long been known that
this district has greater and rich
er deposits that the Alaska, Tread
well or tho Homestake, and it
seems that Capt. Jaquish is about
to make a practical demonstration
of the fact.

Judging from the tone of the
Atlanta press the people of that
city arc not enjoying the refriger
ating cars run thereby the Georgia
Railway and Electric Co., and are
raising a big kick, because they do
not heat them up during tho cold
weather.
A special term of the Cherokee
Superior efturt will be convened
at Canton to tr^ Will Archci, Will
Taylor and Luther Dovvda, the
three young men who are charged
with the murder of Mrs, Ann Hols
combo and her daughter a few
weeks ago.
O11 account of the popularity of
two Cooper brothers of Athens, it
required six policemen lo carry
one of them to the lock up in the
city of Atlanta tho other day.
Had it been some poor person one
would liaye done the work with
tho assistance of his club.
The citizens of Atlanta havo
raised a sufficient amount of mon
ey for that city to have an exhibit
at the St. Louis fair. Hurrah fur
Atlanta and her public spirited
citizens. If the citizens of other
Georgia cities would take such an
interest in public enterprises it
would add a great deal more to her
prosperity.
Mining Notes.
The clean-up at the Ingersoll
& Crisson dredge boat in the
Chestatee river last Saturday, was
satisfactory.
Mr. William Etres of White
county, owning valuable mining
property in that section, was in
Dahlonega a short while last week,
lie has sold his mine to a party of
five men from Philadelphia for a
good sum of money, most of
which has been paid down, so we
are informed.
Manager McAfee hoped to have
tho stamp mill at the McAfee-
Lind Gold Mine running by this
time, but has been unable to do so
on account of a delay in a portion
of the machinery, the stamps,
\ye believe. However, it will not
be long until it is in active motion,
separating the gold from the rock
of that splendid gold mine.
General Manager J. T. Miller
of the Briar Patch Mine, went up
to see the Jumbo Mine last Mods
day. Upon His return we asked
him if lie thought that we had ex
agerated in the least bit about this
wonderful mine in our reports.
His reply was, “You have not. ”
We have been very careful not to
misrepresent any property. We
want the people to see it as good
as represented, if not better.
A very rich vein has been dis
covered on the Turkey Hill prop
erty by Messrs. W. T. Bryson and
Sam Taylor Teal. Mr. Bryson
had some of the ore with him
whilo in Dahlonega the other day,
and the yellow mettle was oil it
and through it in streaks as large
ns broom straws. This is no sur
prise to the natives however, as
they all know that Turkey Hill
is no second-clasB gold mine by
any means.
After neurly a week’s trial in
the ease of the state vs. Mrs. Onie
Tanner, in Ilall Superior court,
charged with poisoning her hus
band, the defendant was acquitted.
The evidence seemed to be pretty
strong against Mrs. Tanner hut
the ju-y viewed it differently and
and gave the woman the benefit of
the doubt.
Mr. A. J. Ash, one of the most
prosperous farmers in Lumpkin
county, while in our office last
Tuesday said that I10 was done
voting tho republican ticket, lie
says that he is a white mans re
publican but can’t afford to vote
such a ticket as long as men like
Rucker is holding an office that
should lie filled by a white man.
Mr. Ash is light, and we hope he
will become a democrat yet, for
this party giyes no offices to ne
groes.
Bruce, who has
McGay’s, Term.,
some time taking various
views of that section, came home
on a visit this week. He will like
ly go buck to Tennessee tomorrow.
Mr. Bruce has retired lo priyntc
life and will not he a candidate for
re-election to the General Asseuis
lily.

them. The largest turkeys weigh
