mines.
Among outside properties, It r
stated upon good authority that The
Consolidated Silver Lick and Snow
Drift lodes, situated Immediately
north Of The Noult n, Il about to

ties, who state that negotiations ore
now pending with eastern capital
lists which will probably result IN
the Immediate capitalization Of the
stock and erection Of extensive hoist
ing works On the property. This,
like the claim adjoining 1t on the
east, the Margaret Ann" lode, Is
one Of the many prospects In this
district which have hoisted pay from
the grass roots down, until water
was struck, and fer want Of capital,
work until working capt. |
