The Chieftain, 1891-11-27

The tramps have sprinkled the streets around the nlaza. The 1st will not bother for several ays. The family of Cruz Nunas, of 'atcr Canon, will move into So corro the cominc week, for the rposc of sending the little folks school. On Friday morning Andres komcro was tin before his His onor L. L.

Miss lnxie will be the truest of her sister, Mrs. Garner, until the present term of court is over. In looking over the list of new members recently elected to con gress, we find the name of Hon. Allen K. Bushnell, of Wisconsin. Bushncll w as a member of the old ron Brigade during the war. Frank Kleimer, of the Brush Brush-leap - leap Brush-leap mine, at Kingston, was in Socorro, Thanksgiving day with a shipment of Brush-Heap ore. This ore goes to the Rio Grande bmclting orks for treatment. An item has been fjoing the rounds of the press that Hon. Pinito Pino is dead. lhis is not the fact Mr. Pino has been very sick, but now recovering. The Chieftain is glad to announce this. Mrs. E. Murphy, 75 Ashland ave., Cleveland, Ohio, wants word of her son John W. Murphy, who was in hocorro, September 29,anu left then for camps in the south part ot the Territory. Southern exchanges please copy. The joice for the roof and ceil ing of the School ot Mines build building - ing building are being hauled out to the grounds. The contractor is push pushing - ing pushing the work and will have the roof on and the principal work done by Xmas. The Chieftain is informed the wedding in high life will not materialize as was expected 111 last week's issue. The thing broke on the turn. Whether the young lady or young gent recant ed we do not know the furniture all went back. Councilman J. J. Lccson, chair man of the committee on water closed contract with the Santa Fe company on last Saturday for water for the use ot said company. The rate fixed was 300 per year, payable quarterly, which makes quite and addition to the water revenue. John J. A. Dobbin, of Water Canon, came to Socorro Monday, looking hale and hearty. lie is preparing to do a large amount of work on the Wall Street and the famous old Ruby, in Silver Mountain Mining District. Mr. Dobbin will astonish the boys some one of these days. The business of Socorro has been good all the fall, in fact their jobbing trade has been steadily on the increase. With a bridge over the Rio Grande it would more than than thribble. A bridge should be built. If the county has not the funds and one cannot be gotteii that way, why then let our merchants form a joint stock company, build the bridge and charge toll. Lets have the bridge. Yesterday quite an army o tramps arrived in the city and within one hour the back doors of our citizens were shaded by their unsightly appearance. Within two hours the marshal had eight of the gang locked up. In the meantime the other twelve steer steered - ed steered their cargo for the south. The marshal to-day will wet down every street In the city and for a time at least do away w ith the dust.

Tuesday. SILVER CITV. Enter rian.J The Silver Bell mine at Pyra Pyramid - mid Pyramid has been bonded by the Pyr Pyramid - amid Pyramid Silver mining company. Superintendent Hamilton will put a force of men to work imme immediately, - diately, immediately, opening up the property and taking out ore. The mine has a shaft 90 feet deep, which shows up considerable high grade ore, as well as large quantities of medium grade. The claim was located by Enoch Warrington some twelve years ago, but has never been worked systematically. Ore was shipped from this proper property - ty property many years ago, which netted $80 per ton in silver, over and above excessive freight and reduc reduction - tion reduction charges. The price to be paid for the property is $ 15,000. The Bremen mill has turned out 14 bricks from custom ore in 19 days this month up to last night, and yet the croakers say there are not sufficient resources in the vi vicinity - cinity vicinity of Silver City to maintain a city of large size. Thirty-five tons of ore a day at the Elagler works, a $1000 brick every day from the Bremen, and still not sufficient capacity for the reduc reduction - tion reduction of our ores, thousands of tons being shipped to Denver, Pueblo. Socorroand ElPaso. Every dollar being spent in the county is com coming - ing coming out of our mines and the amount of money in circulation in Silver City is greater per capita than in any town in the west. The ore reduction business will grow, a new smelting plant will soon be started, and the Colchis company will complete their mill ere long, which will probably handle 60 or 70 tons of ore par day, putting in circulation an average of S2500 or Í3000 per day more than at pres ent. While business at present is as good at any point in the west the outlook for the immediate future is exceedingly bright. Dolan & Co., leasers on the St Louis mine at Pinos Altos.made a strike last week fraught with im portance, and of great significance when considered in connection with the manydiffcrcnt limcstome areas within a radius of ten miles from Silver City. These men who are practical miners with much ex perience in limestone districts, leased the property with nothing in sight. For six months they have worked faithfully risking their time money and labor on their belief in the existence o good ore at the contact, Staking all they had on their opinion form ed upon the result of former ex experience - perience experience in similar formations, they followed a small scam of iron carbonate, which at a depth of 75 feet opened a chamber of ore the extent of which is not yet made public. The ore is a heavy galena assaying 97 ounces silver and 47 per cent. lead. The boys have a bonanza and they deserve it There are many such ore strata outcroppings in the lime around thiscityand Lone Mountain, many of greater value on the surface than this one, and with cqaully as promising indications accompany ing them, Who will take hold next? A party of relic hunters w hile digging among the ruins of an old church near Santa Ee.reccntly.un earthed the corner stone, in the cavity of which was found a roll o parchment and several Spanish coins bearing the date of the tenth century. B.S.Rodey.of Albuquerque, pur chascdalotin that place a mouth ago for Í3,ooo and sold again a few days ago for 6,000 That is the result of always blowing for you own town.-

Ittutlcr It tJ stated that the Milwaukee parties who were to build a smelter at Cerrillos, have succcdcd in raising the necessary capital for the purpose and that the plant is as assured. - sured. assured. Copper matte, carbonate ores, silver-lead and zinc concentrates, anthracite and bituminous coal and coke are among the principal pro products - ducts products shipped from Cerrillos. The small and more precious shipments according to bulk, are gold bricks, nuggets and dust, and turquoise. It is said that Cerrillos had the biggest pay day for this month, Saturday and Monday, which that mining section has enjoyed within the past two years. The coal mines and the Cash Entry all paid off, and the town was filled with happy miners. The coal business continues good, and a few more months of the same kind of busi business - ness business will go far to make up for past depression. Manager R. Y. Andcrson.of the Lincoln-Lucky, is feeling elated over the nearly completed condi tion of the Middlcton shaft, which will make the mine a great pro ducer again as soon as it reaches the ore body. When the mine gets fairly to work, it should ship from 50 to 80 of tons ore a day, and this, with the increased matte and coke hauling for the Copper Company will make teaming lively again between San Pedro and Cerrillos. MOGOLLOXS. Eatcrprl-. Col M.C. Logan, of Sil ver Creek, has contracts for furnishing wood to the Last Chance and Maud S. mills. The contracts aggregate over 4000 cords. The colonel has a sufficient number of men under his control tobe entitled to promo tion, and hereafter will be desig nated as Brigadier General. The Confidence company have just completed their main adit level to a distance of 1300 feet from its month. Of the entire length only 200 feet is in barren or non-paying ore, the other 1 ico feet is all in good pay ore. At last a company in Southern New Mexico has had the nerve to properly develop one of our mines.and their success is beyond their most san guine anticipations. General Miles, of New Orleans, made a trip to Silver creek last week to inspect and report upon a large mining property. He has had a great deal of experience in western mines, having superin tended good dividend payers. He expressed himself as well pleased with the property exam ined, and the Enterprise from a personal knowledge of the mine believes it to be first class. We are not at liberty to give the name of the mine. The Last Chance mill and mine are working smoothly and steadily and the output of gold and silver bullion continues to be shipped regularly through Wcll-Fargo's office in this city. By some over oversight - sight oversight the management neglected to have a supply of wood deliver delivered - ed delivered before the completion of the mill and the mill is now handicap ed trying to make steam with green pine wood. The engineers do their own firing and work eight hours shifts, yet it is such hard work that changes are frequent. Outside of this obstacle every everything - thing everything is in good shapc,the mine
