He owaed the City Rock, containing 1,000 feet, and subsequently bought tbe West Wind, 500 feet, making 1,500 feet. Report has it that be has just purchased ibe Utab, containing 1,500, j making a total of 3,000 feet in a direct line. These mines are located on tbe belt which, according to an article published in the-Herald laBt winter, runs through from Little to Big Cottonwood, and is tbe same one on which the famous Emma is located. Time will show whether tbe theory advanced is correct.
