Park City district, dis-trict, covering a period of one year, has ben taken by George .Morae and M. 1 1. Wynn. two practical miners of Park city, and It Is understood that thev will at once start work on the property. The Ifaso Is on the California workings alone, and docs no! Include the Comstoek territory, ter-ritory, though these two companies were consolidated .some years ago. In former days tlio old California was considered one of the most promising of the Park City prospects, and many thousands of dollars was expended in development work on the claims. In a long tunnel driven through the ground, large deposits of milling ore were uncovered, un-covered, nnd to treat the product the operating company erected a small mill. This pln.11 1 whs in commission for some time, nnd though shipments were made nt frequent Intervals n series of difficulties. diffi-culties. Ilrutnclal und otherwise, wore met with, and the works finally closed down all together. An Old Property. Some Orst-class ore was also opened up. shipments of which netted the company com-pany liandsomety. but these deposits were not of extent sufficient to warrant a continuation of operations.
