Of the Dansby Mining company's
claims. The shaft has now attained a
depth OF 70 feet, and the ore improves
with depth. One thousand pounds Of
ore will be sent to the Omaha Smelling
works to be experimental upon in view
of determining the most feasible and
practical method of reduction. 1t has
been ascertained beyond question that
the free gold contained in the ore is a
mere nodicum Of the aggregate amount
which the ore carries, and the best
method of reduction is what the COM

We have to say in answer to the
Battle River Pilot, that with the consent
of Rapid, she has our permission to
make any changes that she may deem
necessary to her advantage in the loca-
ton Of the Eta or st. Paul mines; but
our advice to the somewhat grasping

out how size goes fooling around Pen
nington county mines. Those fellows
at the end of the track will resist any
effort or your part to rob them of
any part or parcel Of their unheard Of
tin resources.

not carry Rapid to the tin mines, Mr..
