Supporters Of the Theory That
Copper Exists in the Flat
Are Jubllant.
A Six Foot Vein Struck In the
Homestake, Three Miles
East Of Here.


From Thnrsdays Dolly.
The shaft on the Homestake mine, situ.
sted about three miles east OF the city, In
Park canyon, has reached q depth oil $50
feet. so says one Of the owners oil the
property. At or near the bottom OF the
ehafe q vein OF copper ore six feet wide has
been cut, which b . strong argument In
favor Of the copper belt on which the Ala.
sonda, Butte q Boston and Boston q
Montana properties are located extending
across the Hat. So firmly has this belief
impressed itself upon the n Of the
Butte 4 Boston that they have decided to
sink q shaft on the fat beyond the Silver
Bow mill to determine whether their con-
v~ictions are based ON the fact that there
must be . connecting link between the two
copper belts, or whether the lodges on this
side take O downward course to rise no
more or else at some distance beyond the
Homestaks. II 10 not known just howdeep
this shaft will be sunk, but in all probabili-
ty 10 will be sent deep enough to settle the
much talked Of question Of belt c%ontinu.
anes. II 10 said, but the Information 10 not
considered reliable, that the shaft on the
Cat will be sunk to . depth OF 1000 feet,
provided, however, that no ore ia en-
sountsrsd before that depth 10 reached.
A man who has had considerable expert
ence In mining matters in this vicinity said
yesterday that there was no reason why
the lodges on this side OF the fat should
not extend across to the other side.
'If there were no copper mines beyond"
said be, ut would be reasonable to sup
pose that they ended here; but the indi-
cations there are just the same rs they
are here, and whom the shafts on those
mines have been sunk to the proper
depth for striking good ore you will find
that my assertions will have been verified.
SO far ~ the fat is concerned, I believe
that the lodges OF this side dip and cross
the Fat at q depth OF within 800 feet OF
the surface, and that on the o her side
they crop out at the surface within ten
miles OF the line OF hills east OF the city.
Near the line OF hills it is my opinion that
the good copper ore will be found within
300 or 400 feet OF the surface. The
Butte q Boston are on the right road to
success, and I admire their pluck and de-
termination to solve this question. It
will require capital to prosecute the work,
bu4sths expenditure in making the test
wilr N. nothing as compared with the re-
turns In case ore IL struck. The other
large companies will watch with interest
the result OF the enterprise, and when the
edict goes forth that the Butte & Bos-
ton have struck it on the fat, q lively
will occur among them"

was heavy one made of cypress.
Then commenced a most exciting
race. The alligator, ID his efforts
to loosen himself from the rope,
