Fortunately for Utah, these schools are together. Were they separate the state could not support them, for the cost of fhree sets of buildings and three sets of Instructors would he far beyond the Income from our taxes. For its various schools the University now has an estate of 92 acres, situated below Fort Douglas, to the east of the city, affording a college site which Is declared by visitors to be among the four heat in the world. Since the University is adjacent to Salt Lake City, there are many opportunities for young men and woipen to help themselves through college by earning money. Besides there are many things of educational , importance to be seen and heard outside of the school room. To live for awhjle In the largest city of the state is an education in Itself. Within one or two hours' ride from the University are the largest smelters and mines of the state. A ride on the street cars will take one to a number of the great smelters. In fact, the location is ideal for a University. The students in science and literature have opportunities to use the fine city library as well as that of the University; to hear many of the great men and women that pass through the state speak, sing, or play musical instruments, and also to see many of the scientific facts learned in school enput in practical operation.

All along this adit there te ore ot fine quality. The bodies though small in places, broadened out along its trend to chutes of considerable size. These, however, have not been explored to any great extent, the management prefering to push on to the intersection of the great vein where the main ore bodies are expected to LOOKING DOWN THE 80UTH FOR (on3nueTFrom Our Last.)

One of the great mines of the Alta mining district is beyond question the City Rocks, the property of the company bearing the same name. Tbe mine is situated near that of the Continental Alta, and comprises a group of patented claims, all of which are contiguous to the developed portion of the property. It is one of the oldest developed mines of the new era of Alta mining, having been worked continuously for quite a score of years. A tunnel haa been run into the mountain from which drifts, upraises and winzes have been driven until the workings In extent are only second to those of the Colombus Con. This work, however,' has not been in vain. Ore bodies of great extent have been uncovered, and these are being added to constantly.

The mine is well equipped with mar chlneiy, a power plant Is established at the foot of the gulch. The power Is derived from water which Is piped from a stream high up in the canyon. This operates a turbine wheel, which generates the power for an air com pressor, which latter is piped to the mine for the purpose of operating a battery of machine drills. The mine buildings are also adequate to the wants of the management The upper workings consist of many levels and drifts and a shaft which is several hundred feet below the lowest level. In order to fully develop the mine at depth and also to form an sdlt through which to handle the output a long tunnel has been driven Into the mountain from the Alta side. This tunnel is now In considerably over a thousand feet. In fact It is directly under the eld workings of the mine. An uprise of over .100 feet has been made, and will be pushed up to eon nect with the shaft which Is going-dowfrom the top. Several hundred feet of this uprise remains to he driven, which will bn accomplished during the present summer. With this connection made, making possible the chenp handling of ores, the mine will at once join the list of active shippers. Sn great are the ore bodies already exposed, that there Is no question hut that shipments will be kept up for years to come. Nor Is this all. Ennngh has been proven to show that the ore channels Over a thousand go to the depths. feet of stoping ground will be available above the tunnel level, when, ' known ore bodies havp been th' thoroughly developed. The mine will be one of the heavy producers of the state. The mine Is under the management of Mr. Wm. Hartfleld and he is to tie congratulated on the near approach of the time when the hopes of years will be realized. (Continued In Our Next.) n SOCLEAN keeps your floors free from dust.

The great territory covered, all of which Is mineral bearing, makes it one of the most valuable properties In the Alta district Just to the east of the Albion and the Lllburn is a property of great promise, owned by the Alta Hecla Mining company, a corporation made np almost wholly of Salt Lake men. The territory occupies a hog back hill between the Albion mountain and the great divide upon which is situated the Continental Alta and the City Rocks, both of which are well developed properties. The Alta Hecla property comprises five fine claims, on which are over a dozen cross fissures cutting the main ledge. These fissures are as straight as a line and are mineralized throughout their length. While the property Is a new one, Phones 464. Frenchbtroyi Tansy An acTablets. Pop- THE GRANITE GROUP.

A near neighbor to the Albion, the Lllburn and Alta Hecla mines Is the Granite Group of Claims owned and operated by the Oberlander brothers, one of whom is the chief chemist of the United States smelters of Salt Lake county. This group contains fourteen claims and forms a very valuable property. The ground is of the same character as that of the Alta Hecla, which is developing so finely as an ore producer. The same fissures cut the formation and the same highly mineralized character of the ground is visible on the surface. The development work already accomplished proves that at depth the ground will blossom into a ore. Alheavy producer of high-grad- e ready considerable ore has been uncovered and Its character is such that In this mine the history of some of the not earlier producers of the camp may be s anticipated. Property Which Bide Fair to be of Great Value. That success in mining is not always vouchsafed to the experienced miner alone, has just been proven by the Miner brothers and associates of the Secret Mining company. This property lies high np in the mountains at the very head of the Little Cottonwood canyon. It is about two miles from the south boundary line of the Albion and lies near the property of the Little Cottonwood com pany. The great Albion vein passes directly through the property coming ahead. Only recently the first rpy of sunshine dawned on the weary way. An ore body ot no mean dimensions has been encountered under the old workings. The theory upon which Mr. Clays worked, that the ore went to the depths, has been verified and in a short time a new shipper will be added i to Altas roll of honor.
