About sixty mineral locations in Jefferson county were recorded in the office of the County Clerk and Re- corder during the month of April. THE BIGFOOT DISTRICT. John Sloes and V. A. Cook paid a flying visit to Bigfoot camp on Mon- day. They report every mine that they visited as looking first class. The ore body in the Alida is not as large as it was a few feet higher up the shaft but the chanictee of the ore has improved wonderftdly. J. H. Evans has made a riew discovery near the Alida that he thinks will prove to be the boss of the camp. He says the croppings are \a yard wide and all fat.\ There is a full force of double shift working on the Grizzly and the ore body is increasing size with every foot that they go down. Ander- son and \Shorty\ are down sixty feet on the Clyde and the bottom ;shows a fine body of copper -silver ore. BOULDER CHIEF. The Helena Independent of last Fri- day said: \At the meeting of the stockholders on Wednesday night of the Boulder Chief mining and milling company, if was decided to offer the balance of the stock of the mine for sale to the stockholders; the offer to hold good until Jane. Ninety-two thousand shares were sold before the meeting closed. The balance of the remaining shares of the 150,000 was taken by the original stockholders be- fore 7 o'clock last evening. These on the inside were ao confident as to tlie value of the mine that no outsiders got a chance to even make an offer. This is probably the greatest number of shares of mining stock ever sold in Helena in one day. The sale of yester- day exhausts the whole number of shares of the capital stock and starts on a strong businesg basis oie of the most promising mines lately dis- covered.\ • THE BOULDER DISTRICT. Last Saturday's issue of the Butte Mining ,To_urnal lias the following to say of some of the mines at the head waters of the 'Boulder: \In Jefferson county, at the head waters of the Boulder, about 18 miles rorth of Wakerville, is an unorganized district which bids fair to attain pronadence at an early day. The principal mine is the Ruby, which Was located about four years a,go by Mi'. - Graff: - The shaft is 50 feet deep and the ore id of excellent quality. A recent shipment of ten tons to the Pueblo sampling works runs 87a ounces in silver and 23i ounces in gold. There is 'on the dump 175 tons ' worth about $15,000. Adjoining th' Ruby on the northeast is the Columbia, the ore of which is of thersame charr.cter, a 10 ton lot not long ago averaging $100 to the ton. There is a 40 foot shaft and a tunnel 125 foot long. NO' ore has yet been shipped from the mines. These mi were the property of James Conant and Alex Monroe, and were located in 1887. In addition there were , ten or fifteen locations made last As showing theasitee-\ho Ruby may be mentioned that the owner has refused an offer to bond it for $100,000 for 90 days. A short time ago several Butte parties made a trip to the section and located three claims. No assay o( the ore has yet been made, but they think it is as good as that above re- ferred to. A party of surveyors of the Helena & Boulder Valley road are now in the Vicinity, and if the line is built on the route contemplated the mines will be within a mile of it.\ HOT SPRINGS JUMFiD. Tom Bayse, clerk at the Grandren- tral hotel in Boulder, has located un- der the mineral land laws the upper hot springs which have heretofore been supposed to belong with the lower springs to A. C. Quaintance and oth- ers. Bayse claims to have had a sur- vey made of the grounds and found out to the contrary, and accordingly has taken advantage of his discovery. He also has filed under the preemp- tion Jaws on a 160 -acre tract of land just below and adjoining the springs claim, which has been lying untaken all these years. If Tom succeeds in perfectiog his title to these two pieces ola s Propérty, he will have enough to keep him ill clover the rest of life. He, with Charles Howard, has lo- cated a quartz claim, called the Enter- prise, on top of the ridge above the hot springs, and has two men at work de- veloping. He may strike the infernal regions if he don't get good quartz. river bridge. W. N. Ten Eyck has put up a frame drying shed at his lumber -yard at Sampling Works. It also serves purpose of a warehouse al e dee.sate, sash, etc. Mr.' Tho alarray yesterday k far the foundation e residence which he t this summer at the corner ison street and Third avenue. I will be a two-story brick of about eisibt. rooms, with all theaaede‚ . rn con - trees. , The contract for the foualer stone, and brick work of the Parchen & Morris block, has been given to Thomas F. Murray, the plastering goes to Charles Beal, and the carpen- ter work will be let to -morrow. The building will be of brick, with iron and plate -glass front. RAILROAD RACKET. • President Harris, of the Northern Pacific, took a run over the Boulder Valley line last Thursday and was. very - much pleased at the prospect of business 'which it promised for the future. ' A change in the railroad time -card on the H., B. V. & B. R. R., is antici- pated next Sunday. It is thought the train from<Helena will arrive in Boulder about two hours later than at ‚present, but that it will return to Helena at the same hour. Mr. C. W. Chown ing, of the Northern Pacific land department, has been in Boulder the past few days preparing maps of the mining districts in the county with the various locations made the object being to lay them be- , fore the Board of Directors of the Northern Pacific at their next meet- ting with a view of showing the re- sources of the county and the proba- bility of branch Thies proving profit- able investments. Several citizens &- misted, the gentleman in his work and even they were surprised at tile favor- able showing . made for the county. SOCIETY ITEMS. R. O. Allen and IfiiSs Ann Kennett are to be married in /Wane this even- ing. Mrs. Evans and daughter having re- covered from their recent illness, tarn Monday rejoined Mr. Evans in the Bigfoot district. The anniversary ball of Boulder Lodge, Knights of Pythias, which is to take 'place in the fine hall at the Hot Springs on Friday, May 18th, bids fair to be one if the most nota- ble events of the kind ever occurring in the county. Elaborate preparations are being made by the various hard- working committes of the Lodge, and numerous handsome dresses are being made by the ladies especially for the occasion and the fair ones generally promise to outshirie all previous ef- forts. The party will be worth attend- ing if only to scathe grace and beauty assembled there. By no means the smallest feature in the affair will be an elegant supper prepared in Captain Trotter's inimitable style. The following correspondence in the Bozeman Courier bears the date of Salesville, April 30: \The ordinary, everyday life of our thriving village was enlivened Sunday evening by a wedding. Mr. Herbert A. Cummings, of Boulder, was married to Misa Laura H. Bradley, of Bozeman, at the resi- dence of T. J. Lynde, Rev. M. J. Hall officiating. Harry Sears was beet man and Miss Emma Bradley brides- maid. The wedding was given to the yeung people by Mrs. T. J.LYnde, whose wedding supper was the subject of much praise. Mr. Cummings was formerly a resident of this valley, but is now a resident of Boulder ' where he has a good situation, and his wife isat Pennsylvania lady who came to Montana last year, and her recently returned from a visit to her old borne. She is a most estimable young lady and Mr. Cummings is to be congratu- lated on his good fortune. The happy couple have gone to th ir new home at Boulder and will nettle down to housekeeping at once. Their many friends here wish them a long and happy life:\ BUILDING NEWS. BASIN BUDGET. [Special Correspondence of Ty' Atta.1 BASIN May 6.—, The almost con- tinuous rainfall, during this month has made business in general gloomy and dull. Grumblings are the erder of the day in town and Camp. The arastra people are still pegging and grinding away. Mr. Dougherty, who is actively interested in that property, tells me the output is good. General Harris, of Helena. visited the camp this Week to look -after the Atlanta Gold and Silver Mining Co's interests. He found all things in shipshape.and left the lessees hard at work. General Manager Reed is pushing matters at the Penn placer grounds with satisfactory 'results. The con- tinued illness of Superintendent Walsh, at Boulder Hot Speings, is a; matter of regret to the Company as well as his troops of friends here. The bridge -builders invaded Basin in force this week and timbers.; are being handled rapidly along this portion of the Montana Central line. It is stated that rails will be in demand on Mon- day, May 7th, as tracklaying will commence on that day and \Ho! for Butte\ be the watchword. It is ex- pected by the men in charge here that Butte will be entered by the first train about the - middle of June. Work be- yond Calvin station is being pushed earnestly. Basin people long for the coming of the other road, hoping 'thereby to have better treatment hi regard freight delivery. There is no depot here and goods for this place are taken to thé end of the route at Calvin station. Tax AGE struck the keynote when it suggested that the mail service along this line cannot be depended on. It is absolutely irritating to observe the entire lack of attention to pedal matters on the route between Butte and this point. For days at a time no papers are received. Then a half a dozen daily papers come at once. Sometimes none come for longer peri- ods.- One gentlerhen received six dailies tit once on May 3(1 and 'one of them, bore date April 11th. At other times the Boulder and Elkhorn mail is sent here and Postmaster- Hopkins finda himself literally overwhelmed with (stale) news. The messenger here says it is not his fault.

Rowan has opened a blacksmith shop at Wm. Rains's old stand and proposes' to do all sorts of work in his line in a manner which will be satis- factory to all patrons and at very rea- sonable prices. Bath, Cory & Co. have- added to their establishment a fine line of sta- ple dry goods, including prints, ging- Isear, and some very fine dress goode, and other articles in tida line. This is a new departure for this enterpris- ing firm and the ladies will doubtless encourage them in the move. • 1:45CLIJETriliaT SPRINGS.,‚, Arnong the numerous_ guests regis- tered at the Boulder Hot Springs -the past we,ek e following: Thomas. .
