Smith came down from 1'ark City yesterday, where he had been covering himself with candia grease ami carbonate for anveral day 111 hi peregrinations through the drift. and slopes of the various bonanza. I While the Captain is very tweet on Tin-tic, Tin-tic, which he considers an almost peerless peer-less mining district, he i tint so hidebound hide-bound as to bo unable to do justice to so rich a camp as the snow capped me-Iropolig me-Iropolig of Summit county. This was ! not the captain's ti rst vitct to l'ark City 1 liy any means, but ho said that he bail never seen the mines there looking better bet-ter than they do now. The Ontario ; must inevitably be spoken of lirst when : reference is made to the minus of that 'camp. It is looking particularly well. It would be tiresome to rucito tho parts of tiio mine which allow big stupes of ore; it is looking well and has ; untold treasure on every level which is ' now lining woreed. Stock holders ill the. property may rest easy with the assurance as-surance that there is enough in sight to pay dividends for several years to come Tho Daly, too, novcr looked better; and today it is as rich and has as bright a promise, as its big brother ever bad with the sane development. On the DIM level there is a veritable world of ore, bang up rich stulf too; and it continues con-tinues for fi.'iO feet on the vein without a break in it. The West Daly, is, in tho captain's opinion, a coming property. Ore ha been foun t on both ends of the territory and only development is necessary nec-essary to make it a dividend payer. And the Anchor would noon attract more attention than it had for several years. There are great breasts of ore in several parts ot the mine; the shipments ship-ments made at present to the concentrators, concen-trators, aggt elating l'.Ti tons a day. When the water is drained from the siiaft and tho new machinery is readv to run, the Anchor would be heard from. With some disadvantages which Tintic does not havo to contend with and some advantages Tintin has not, l'ark City is a very wonderful miuiug camp. !A LA PLATA V0Ni)EU. ,! ! J. 0.

'I he rxpuritrnce gained at Ajpeu, he helioi cl, had been of great aiivaiitagn to him in Lu 1'inta district in arriving at an intelligeut opinion of the iii'Hinei' of tho deposition of the ore ho. lies. Like many other Colorado miner, he ipiickly made) up his mind t'nt t!ie rich and pariiiaucut tnines of La I'laia would iiu found in tho contact between the dolomitic and carboniferous carbonifer-ous bin 'stones, and to these formations he (otilmod all his explorations and prospeeiiujj. It was iu this con-ta-.-t that Mr. Edwards mule the discovery morwhicli hi) is so iiiuchjclal-ed. iiiuchjclal-ed. As liu't'u was no assayer iu the camp the ('IV was sent to Salt Lake to have determination made on it. Tho certili-eate certili-eate of assay was received by him in Ogdcii on Saturday. While ho fully expected that tie) ore hu had found was licit, ho was staggered when he road the a.-saver's certilicato giving its value at Jlo.UUO to the ton. No time was lost in getting hack to La l'iata, and he started for there after midnight. After mukirg a proper locati in of his claim, he seemed a bond on four other locations; and when seen in tais city yesterday he was on his way to Colorado Colo-rado to raisi) the money to take up these options. Mr. Kdwurds did not care to give the exact locality of his lind with reference to ttio other mining claims of the district, the names of which have become wrll known, lb! would only pay that ho had .1 well (ietiiicd contact Vein, that the prospect (iiiiiinud the iiisler of all the previous strikes, made in La i'lata ami lha' ho was satis-ged satis-ged he had a bonanza. Of the district. :k has the highest opinion, but being as he M-iiil, of a "rather phlegmatic temperament tem-perament and having iiiado mining a 1110 business, he was not ki easily cs-eiled cs-eiled as many others who were pos-sessed pos-sessed of more ciithusiasni and less ox-ner ox-ner eiico than he. At this time there was no reason to exaggerate matters. Some very good discoveries had been e.iailo which ought t) be etiough to on-eoiiraire on-eoiiraire prosjiectiug; still he did not think tlie district a second Leadvillo or it all liable to become one; hut sulii-cient sulii-cient (no hull been found 011 the surface t j iinliu:e further exploration." ftl:ning Kvi'tinnt, There was not much of an exciting nature in the bull and bear pit this morning.
