GOLD IN THE BLACK HILLS,

Inc most promising of all mining enterprises
now on the market is the Sullivan Gold Mining
Cos, whose mines are situated in the Lawrence
Mining district, Pennington County, Black Hills
Dakota. The company is legally incorporated
with capital stock of 900 shares of the par
value of one dollar each 245 900 shares are trans
ferred into Treasurer stock of the Co., and all
shares are worcestershire, which make them a
good investment and are being sought after by
the farmers, mechanics, laboring men and wo-
men, merchants and bankers, and they are rea-
onably sure of receiving large dividends upon
tnelr Investment. The company is composed of
good business men who have put their own mon
ey into the mine, prospect and developing work
and now offer $4,000 shares, which are selling at
their par value, to put in needed machinery,
stamping mills, hosting works, etc.
The Sullivan mine has been thoroughly tested
and proven to be rich natural assure running
the whole length of the mine, 1900 feet long. The
following are stronger endorsements of the val
ne of the mine than anything that could be said
or written in general way concerning its true
value
