Quartz Assaying at Reasonable Rates. Profitable Winter Development. Messrs. Morjm & Carmichael Accomplish Satisfactory Results from Persistent Work. Otter creek, which had no little excitement for some time after its discovery, has, for the past two seasons, been abandoned by the placer-miner, owing to the depth to bedrock and to the difficulty and expense of obtaining drainage. Poi\\. hydraulic mining, however, development has shown that it will take aiforemost place in the camp's records of that industry. The creek, with its benches, lias been taken up, from the, source to the mouth, by hydraulic leases. These are in three distinct groups, and are each capable of being worked wilhout serious couflicliou with that immediately below. To Messrs Morai; Sc Carmichael belongs tlie honour of- proving- the existence of an ancient aurile'rous gravel deposit within the confines of the creek of a quality and\" richness which augur's'well lor tne prospects of ilie creek. From an interview we had with Mr. Carmichael, this week, we obtained the following information as to the nature of himself raid partner's development work and the prospective results : Their property is situated on the upper portion of Otter creek, and consists of 13 leases ��� creek and bench ��� and extends from half a mile below the upper canyon to two miles above. The development work done during the past winter has demonstrated the area of payable ground to be of great extent. From the face of a pit, ground-sluiced out on the Raven bench-lease during last summer, a tunnel was driven, which determined the width of the channel to be 150 feet, carrying values averaging, from surface to bedrock, 77 cents per cubic yard, the gold being concentrated in six .to eight feet of gravel on bedrock overlaid by sand aud deposits of loose and practically barren gravel.. This over-burden will go before the monitor like snow under a summer sun. On the Crow lease, from a tunnel driven 160 feel in the winter of 1900, Go yards of gravel were taken this winter which lias yielded 22 oxs. of gold���the dirt was taken from a breast, 10 by 3 by 2 yards high���the largest pan of gold, $21.- 50 being found iu a casual pan of gravel by J. K. Moran. The pay is iu the lower six feet of black gravel overlaid by silt and loose surface gravel, altogether averaging 20 feet in depth. A shall was sunk in the creek, on the Snipe lease, aud proved that below the silt ��� - claimed to be the bedrock, on which the pay rested, by the miners of j899���there lies a second layer of pay, gravel, six feet iu 'depth, also resting upon-a layer of silt or clay. Tlie values have not been accurately determined, but coarse., colours, up lo $3.00 in weight, were found in, every pun. As the surface water ' was very troublesome and time limited the shaft'was not continued to bedrock. Willi a little more work the necessary information will be available for the installation of a hydraulic plant. CREEK NEWS. Hydraulic .Companies .��� Begin Piping. The Season's Outlook Very Bright ���Water Commencing to Rise : ���An.Early Start. \"Piping\" - with ihe hydraulic companies seems lo be the order of the day. This news comes lo us from the vanuus^Ii'^eks.- ' The mild weather of this week end has begun to make things hum, as' far as water is concerned, and iu the case of Boulder, where, on ' Monday, all the water in the creek could have been run through an or dinar j' sluice-box, today there is ample to run a 4-iiich giant with full pressure. Other creeks are in a similar position. The Atlin Lake Co., on' Birch, began piping on Thursday, almost a mouth eailicr than, last year. The ground being opened up is said, from prospecting, to be capable ot paving $5.00 a day to the man���shovelling���and should, in consequence, show big returns uniler the monitor, with a full head of water. It is lo be hoped that the present bright prospects will yield a correspondingly bright, clean-11 p. Both Mr. Jackson, Manager, and \"Charlie\" Lambert are lo be commended on the way they have rushed matters so that not a day should be lost when the water became available. The Atlin Mining Co., on McKee creek, begin piping, with two giants, today. The pressure box and pipe line have been moved up 600 feet, and piping is being begun on Ihe lower line of discovery claim. The prospects are excellent and the Company is justified in expecting big returns. Ou Boulder creek the Societe Miniere begins piping today, and it is anticipated that bedrock will be reached very shortly. The moment bedrock is struck, we are prepared to learn of some large wash-ups, as Continued on page Four. ���'i| Ml i'^^rp^rTT~^^ ���\"^^^^i.^ . /': ATLTN.

Saturday, May 17, 1902 It must be gratifying in the extreme to the well-wishers of Atlin district to learn ol the excellent results which are. being obtained from the washing-up of tlie winter dumps on the various creeks. Our reference to il last week and the estimate as lo the output in thai reference is stated on .all sides to be far loo conservative; we find (hat, with rarely an exception, miners aie reaping returns away beyond their expectations. Tim days of mere \" scratching \" the ground are long gone, and the class of \" toy \" miners have been replaced by persistent and practical men who -have known how to bide their time, and these are in consequence reaping their reward. The fact has been demonstrated beyond peradventure thai there is still the possibility of much rich ground yet to be opened out, aud that - people are only beginning to realize that there is today a value in the placer deposits of the camp altogether 1111- looked for or unexpected in the earlier days^f its existence. \"Everything comes to him who waits, but far sooner to him who hustles while he waits.\" Several' of the' West ' Indian Islands Endangered. Further Reports from tho Scene of Disastcr-;--Loss of Life Is Appalling. An unfortunate misunderstandings seems to have arisen in the minds of several of the miners who have imported mining..machinery, pumps, etc., from the ��States, upon wliich they were compelled to pay duty ranging from 25 to 33 per cent. It has been considered by many people that \"mining machinery\" has been placed upon the \" Free \" list and that therefore all machinery of that kind would be exempt from duty. Tt should be remembered that the duty is really put upon machinery in order to protect Canadian manufacturers aud with 110 intent of fleecing the users of mining machinery. The following copy of an oath which is required by ihe Customs authorities, explains the position in a very few words: ,We have been fortunate in obtaining sonic ��� further information regarding Die lerrible volcanic disturbance iu the West Indies. Ml. Pelee, ten miles north of St. Pierre, the commercial capital of Martinique, is the mountain, which fifty years agvi, showed faint signs of eruption. On 3rd inst dense clouds of black smoke began to issue from it, while by midnight of the same day,' flames broke out, accompanied by rumbling noises. On the following day hot ashes, to the depth of an inch, covered the whole city and made Mt. Pelee invisible. At noon of the 5th a stream of burning lava, 400 feet wide, rushed down the mountain side aud reached the sea, five .miles distant, in three minutes. In its rush the firy flood swept from its path plantations, factories, human beings and cattle. At the mouth of the Riviera Blanche stood a large sugar factory, one of the finest on the island; it is now entombed iu lava, with nothing but the tall chimney to mark its site. During the afternoon cf the Sth, the British steamer Roddam', which had left ot. Lucia at midnight on the 7th for Martinique, crawled slowly into Castries harbour unrecognizable,, gray with ashes, her rigging dismantled and the sails and awnings hanging, torn and charred. Capt. Whatler reported having cast anchor off St. Pierre at S a.m. in line weather, and was talking to the' ship's agent, whose boat was alongside, when he saw a tremendous cloud of smoke and blazing cinders rushing with terrific rapidity over the city and port and in an instant completely enveloping the former iu flame. Several of the ship's crew were scorched to death. By superhuman efforts, having steam up, the. Captain slipped the cable and the steamer backed from shore, arriving at Castries nine hours later. rdrau!Ic ivuru] 3s# & nery. HYDRAULIC DERRICKS ��� From 3 lo 10 tons lifting- capacity.

As at no very distant dale, with the variety and extent of our quarlx. deposits, the question of \"ore in sight\" may be a vital one. The following, from the pen of Mr. J. D. Kendal!, a well known Mining , Engineer, is worthy of careful perusal. Illustrations were given, but owing to 'our inability to'reproduce them, the reader will have to draw his own conclusions from the context: '.The estimation of ore in sight is very far from being one ofthe most difficult matters with which an engineer has to deal. Vet some'of the most serious losses in mining have been incurred through errors in such estimates, and engineers have, very properly, been severely censured for, their failures in this connection. It is therefore proposed to bring the matter before the Institution ��� with\" a ��� view of making- some recommendations which, if followed, will in future greatly reduce, if they do not prevent altogether, the losses which have so frequently arisen iu the past'from so-called estimates of ore in sight. ' Definition of Terms ��� Ore in sight, is an expression of veiy common occurrence in reports on mines. The meaning attached to the phrase docs not appear, however, to be always the same. In some instances the so-called \"ore in sight \" is only \"ore in .imagination.\" The former expression, if is true\", is not a happy one, for the' uugotten ore in a mine can never be all in sight even when \"blocked out\" in the most complete manner possible in ,the regular working of mines. No matter how small the pillars, or masses of ore, blocked out may be, there must always be-a large proportion iu the interior of them which cannot be seen. But if a person of experience can see the four sides of a rectangular mass of .ore, in a vein, for example, he can, in the great majority of cases, form an estimate ��� not absolutely accurate, it is true, but sufficiently so for commercial purposes���of the quantity of ore contained iu that pillar. .He may in some cases be able to do so if he can only examine three sides of the ore mass or again even when only two opposite sides are in view; but in each of these cases he will have to employ a different factor of safety. This factor will also vary with the size of the mass under consideration. These,remarks may be extended to ore bodies of other shapes. Oii the other hand,'if only one side of a mass of ore can be seen, it must be perfectly clear that no one car. tell what quantity of ore is in that mass. ��� The side visible may show a large area of ore, but quantity of ore involves a third dimension. If this be wanting, we cannot know anything about quantity. The third dimension, so often unfortu- ti naU'ly assumed, can only be ascertained, with a::- approach to accuracy, by ' blocking out,' so Dial 'ore iu sight' may be looked upon as svi'i'onvnious with 'ore blocked out!' ,\" by 'blocking out' is meant the exposure of ore ou two, three cr four sides of a rectangular or other shaped .mass. . ft does not mean simply the exposure of ore by trenches, tunnels, drifts, winzes and raise?, but also includes the exposures that result from denudation. \" Why blocking out is necessary. ��� Owing to the very irregular manner .in which ore deposits usually.occur, no one can, as a rule, form even an approximate idea of their extent until. the, boundaries have been determined by.actual work. But even if the main or outside boundaries of a deposit be known, there is still much to be learned with regard to tlie inside boundaries, for most, if not all, deposits contain more or fewer and larger or smaller inclusions of co'untry 'rock, or other barren ground, about which we cannot know anything until the deposit has been more or less blocked out. \" Variations also occur in the quality of ore in different parts of a deposit, so that the more we see of it and the more samples we can take, the more 'likely are we to arrive at the average quality of the workable portion of it. \"The man who has not, fiom experience, icaiized the truth ofthe above statements,, will be apt to permit his fancy to form his facts, aud so reach conclusions wliich will most probably be altogether unreliable; for he will assume extensions that do not exist, continuity where there may (and probably will) be great interruption, and uniformity where there is great variation. \"Illustrations of erroneous methods.��� fn a deposit of argentiferous galena, which occurred in a vein, and upon which a funnel had been driven, with three up-raises��� not to the surface���the engineer of an intending purchaser made an estimate ofthe ore in sight. Had the vein carried ore at The surface it would have been'fairly safe to infer that the ore in the back of the slopes would extend to the surface,' but without satisfying himself of the existence of the ore in the vein at the surface, the engineer referred to assumed that the body of ore he had seen iu the..slopes' would extend out to \" day.\" Had he taken the trouble .��� as be ought to have done-���lo ascertain what really was ou the surface, his estimate, would have been very different from what Continued on next page.
