Water From the Jordan River.


OF all strange articles which pass

but one camel with its burden was

destination. Tho announcement of
the arrival of this shipment BY the
New York and Chicago papers
brought scores of people to the great

some of this remarkable liquid. Some

as souvenirs, others for baptismsl Ger.

this remarkable and enterprisine re-

the importation was to present at

A BIG STRIKE.

The Star Mine showing Up 40 Ore
Vein that Promises to Prove the
Biggest Thing on Wood River.
Three evenings ago, while a miner
was blasting into what he thought
was the footwall. to level the floor OF q
drift in order to lay . car track, he
unexpectedly made q discovery that
may increase tho value Of the Star
mine very materially.
The discovery WAS . vsin Of solid
galena which has since been opened
and shown to be at least two feet
thick, with ore still in the face. The
actual width of the orc is therefore
undetermined.
This discovery was made 1t point
about GO feet from tho face of tho old
workings. and at depth from the sur.
face OF over 300 feet. Its importance
is therefore great, and its value must
be like wise. The ore 10 clean, solid,
rich. and there 10 apparently . large
body OF it.
This discovery was not made before
because. when the level was opened.
tho drift was run in the hanging wall.
And it was only by accident, as above
stated, that it WAS made at this time
The ledge is six feet in width, 80
far, and is said to be the best defined
on the river, and to promise to prove
the biggest thing ever shown up here.
As there is a nice streak of ore in
the old workings, the Star is now
looking better than ever.

of the expert engaged to investigate
the affairs of the bank, so far as it has
gone, shows that there is no stock
