VOLUME XXXVII ANAH Long Reports Favorably J. N. Long of Garden Grove was a member of a party which last week visited the Kelso mine, situated in San Bernardino county, on the Salt Lake route, 250 miles from Los Angeles. This mine is being operated by Orange county people, and a number of our residents hold considerable interest in the property. Others are considering the propriety of investing, and Mr. Long was sent out for the purpose of making a critical examination, with a view to submitting a report to his neighbors regarding the enterprise. He is a miner of many years' experience, and his honesty and reliability is well established throughout Orange county. His report of the mine is most favorable, and in conversation with a representative of this newspaper he said that if future developments proved there was no mine there, one need not look further for any mine anywhere. "I found three well-defined ledges, extending at least 2000 feet in length, and about 300 feet apart," he said. "The surface indications show the rock to be highly mineralized. Outcroppings of gold, silver, copper and lead are discernible, and surface assays are most encouraging. The company has sunk a shaft eighty feet deep, and assays increase in richness as the mine before a junction is effected." ledges really do come together am confident they do, for these outcroppings spring source, the mine will undo one of the richest in the co. "I am not as yet interested mine, but I am going to be it the richest prospect I ever ered, and I have been many years. "I think the company go deep, but I think it will rich about the 500 foot level. "The only thing about should be taken is that the rightly handled and that fistly expended. This I th done, but I merely mention the essential features. "You may quote me as am very favorably impressed I saw. I tell you that mine there never earth." Mr. Long said he was newly excited over nothing in inspection of the mine everything he says co. There is a plenty of water at the mine; a was been sunk to a considerable abundance of water is. Mrs. Nicholas of Berkleying the holidays with re was no mine there, one need not look further for any mine anywhere. "I found three well-defined ledges, extending at least 2000 feet in length, and about 300 feet apart," he said. "The surface indications show the rock to be highly mineralized. Outcropings of gold, silver, copper and lead are discernible, and surface assays are most encouraging. The company has sunk a shaft eighty feet deep, and assays increase in richness as the mine attains greater depth. I went down into the mine and found two men working with a windlass and bucket, but I saw an engine at the depot, six miles from the mine, as I came out. This engine is now, I understand, set up at the mine and will be soon in operation. Nine men are employed at the mine, and when the engine gets into operation faster progress will be made. "My opinion is that the property is most promising. The shaft is sunk on the lower ledge, and I believe the three ledges come together, but that some depth will have to be attained THANKS TO OUR PATRONS We take pleasure in extending the felicitating season to our patrons and the public generally, to convey our appreciation of their support since our Grocery Store a year ago.

If those really do come together, and I evident they do, for I am certain outcroppings spring from one of the mine will undoubtedly be the richest in the country. It not as yet interested in the but I am going to be. I consider richest prospect I ever encount- and I have been mining many think the company will have to but I think it will strike it about the 500 foot level.

Campbell, the largest stockholder in the Kelso mining enterprise, the advertisement of which appears upon another page, was in town this week and brings glowing accounts of tqe richness of the property. Mr. Campbell is an experienced miner, and has crossed the desert eleven times. He has been all over Nevada, Utah, California and other mining states and says with emphasis that he never saw such a promising mine as the Kelso. "I had an option on the Quartet mine at Searchlight four years ago for $1,-500," he said while speaking of his experiences as a miner, "and was unable to form a syndicate to purchase it within the time limit. I tried my best to buy the property, for I firmly believed it was a profitable one. Another man came along and took an option upon the property at $2500, and a company of Boston men developed it to a depth of 200 feet. They encountered rich pockets of gold, in instances running as high as $1250 to the ton. At 400 feet assays lessened in value to such an extent that the Boston men telegraphed to shut down the property. The superintendent declined to shut down and ran a sump hole down eight feet further.

He struck rich ore, and today, at a depth of 500 feet, the mine is worth $18,000,000. It is the biggest mine at Searchlight. I did my best to buy it at $1500. "Mr. Hervey of Santa Ana some time ago purchased 10,000 shares of gold mining stock in a mine in Nevada, paying ten cents per share. Today his stock is worth $6 85 per share. "The outcroppings in the Kelso mine are the richest I have ever seen. They discount the showing made by the Quartet. There are three fine veins on the ledge, each of them richer than the one on the Quartet, and I thoroughly believe these veins come together. If they do, and the ledge holds out, as I believe it will, we have the richest mine on the coast. "We had surface assays at the Kelso mine of $5.25 per ton. At 70 feet we now have assays of $46.87." Mr. Nelson, who accompanied Mr. Campbell on a recent trip to the mine, exhibited an assay of $107 per ton. Mr. Campbell was offered $20,000 for his holdings, which he refused. Mr. Neff is in Bakersfield arranging for farmers' institutes. O.Warling was in town from Laguna this week visiting with friends.

Former Postmaster Upham of Olive was in town an evening or two ago. Mr. Upham was one of the victims of last week's hold-up and yielded up 75 cents of good money. In other respects he is doing quite well, for he gathered seven eggs that morning from a flock of thirty hens. He refused to trade the chickens for a flock of forty hens owned by former Postmaster Littlefield of this city. The latter was also in the hold-up, but was not searched. Chris Gilderman decorated the City market tastefully with holly for Christmas, and served his customers with the choicest cuts of beef which formed center pieces for many a family dinner on Tuesday, and this beef was probably the best handled by this market during the year, and that is saying a good deal, for it is the rule of the shop to serve nothing but the best the market affords. Mr. Fleischman has just purchased 110 head of steers which are being fattened for market. These will be on sale, along with other meats, at this market, and Chris assures all his customers the best he has in the shop. Roasts from this market make one forget his troubles, so much so that they rarely return. Chris will tell you the rest of the story. Wanted 500 Horses To be clipped at the Palace Livery Stable, Anaheim, Cal. J. Hahn, Prop. New the Los Angeles Reservoir On December 19th the board of directors of the A. U. W. Company, companyed by Engineer Kellogg, used the dam now being constructed except Mulholland for the city of Los Angeles. This dam will be considerably larger than the dam at Yorba, being feet higher but with the same width base, the slopes being steeper. The interesting feature of the work on the board was that Mr. Mulholland adopted the same method of construction proposed to be used in the Yorba reservoir-sluicing. He has found well started with wagons and pumps, but finds that method costs 25 to 30 cents per cubic yard, while sluicing method only cost about 7 cents. According to the fact that a number of dams were found in the bedrock foundation, a concrete core-wall was placed on the foundation and carried up to a level a little above the bottom of the key. When Mr. Mulholland was asked whether such a core-wall would have been necessary if the formation had been a blue clay across the valley such we have in the Yorba reservoir, he emphatically said "no," and further it could have been left out in the we install the pumps in the beginning, and it was agreed that it would be a good thing to have them ready. The board visited a smaller reservoir already constructed where the experiment of oiling the inside bank in same manner as oiling roads had been tried and shown to be a success. A matter of much interest was a species of sea moss which Mr. Mulholland has planted on the outside bank. This forms a complete mat, preventing washing; and squirrels and gophers will not burrow in an embankment where it is planted. The board was much pleased with the information obtained, and the expressions were general to the effect that the Yorba reservoir was a better thing than ever, and the progress of the work will be viewed with a confidence in its success. Holy Jumpers A band of holy jumpers struck town some evening ago and have been holding forth upon the streets. Following the street service they repaired to Miller's hall, which had been rented for the occasion, and here crowds have gathered nightly to witness the performances. On Sunday evening the spectacle of women living in a frenzy When Mr. Mulholland was asked whether such a core-wall would have been necessary if the formation had been in a blue clay across the valley such we have in the Yorba reservoir, he emphatically said "no," and further it could have been left out in the lake there, but it had been put in to better satisfy some nervous people below the dam. An answer to a question as to whether the earth fill would leak, he said there is no possible chance of the water leaping through such a mass of earth. The sluicing was viewed with much interest. The earth is torn loose with water from a hose under about a 75 inch pressure and runs down the hill a pump where it is pumped through pipe on to the dam. General satisfaction was expressed with the method. Mr. Sherwood suggested that the same process be used by the Yorba dam. Mr. Kellogg stated that the last one-fourth of the dam at the top would have to be pumped, but the balance could be carried on the dam by gravity and that soil conditions at the Yorba dam were so much better that the ground sluicing method would be cheaper. Mr. Sherwood strongly advised that a band of holy jumpers struck town some evening ago and have been holding forth upon the streets. Following the street service they repaired to Miller's hall, which had been rented for the occasion, and here crowds have gathered nightly to witness the performances. On Sunday evening the spectacle of women lying in a frenzy of religious fervor upon the floor was too much for a crowd of young men who had gathered in the hall, and on Tuesday evening they threatened the colored leader of the outfit with punishment if he repeated the performance. A young Russian girl named Rothe is said to have remained prostrate upon the floor during several hours and so remained when the unbelievers were dismissed. She is said not to have been released until 2 o'clock the following morning. On Tuesday evening a crowd of young men gathered about the negro, shouting "hang him!" A rope was procured, and there was quite a demonstration. Marshal Steadman appeared and advised the colored man to leave town. This he did, going to the residence of Rev. Mr. Berg, east of town. A crowd of young fellows followed, threatening to hang him. It is said the exercises will be repeated on Thursday evening.
