The Victoria copper mine, extensively known in mining circles as the miles Dyer mine, situated twenty-fiv- e north of Vernal, Utah, was sold at public auction by Ileputy United States Marshal Berry, under decree of the United States District court of Utaili, to Mr. James L. Gates of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for $33,000 cash. Gates represented himself as the sole purchaser. Within the last two years quite a number of Salt Lake people have become interested in Meadow Lake mining distriet, Nevada county, Cal., and these and many others will be glad to learn that the toll road being built from Cisco to this old gold camp ia now nearly completed, thus bringing this section within easy reach of the railroad and over a good thoroughfare. The Queen of Sheba, in Clifton d if trict, in the Deep Creek country, made its first cleanup last week and the owners of the property received the consignment of bullion amounting to $1,3G0. It is learned that the mill ia giving excellent satisfaction and that the mine is looking well with fine bodies of ore blocked out through its workings. It is reported that the Gold Dus Mining company of tlie Camp Floyd a district is negotiating witli for the use of the old Geyser mill for a few months for experimental purposes while the company is building its own mill. Tlie Gold Dust, from all accounts, is showing up big-g- tr and better as development work progresses and it will not lie long before it will lie elassed with the bonanza propositions of the camp.
