The DODGE CITY MINING COMPANY
The stockholders Of this organization have
good reasons to be elated over the prospects
in store for them. Should BONANZA fall ON
Dodge City there would be much rejoicing.
The DodRsite suddenly becoming bloa,ed
mine owner would not be tempted from his
base. He knows the value Of riches. and
suddenly acquired wealth would not dis
turb his equilibrium. The good reports
continue to come in. The Park county
(Colo.) Bulletin says:
THE Beverley lode has an immense vein,
and is one Of the best prospects in the dis
trict. 1t is owned BY the Dodge City Mining
Company of Kansas. This company owns
several valuable properties in the district,
requiring only development to become pay
ing mines"

Nearly every one supposed that any un-
