Some Interesting Illustrations.

The DOCTOR NINE of CRIPPLE CREEK, which
few weeks ago could have been bought fd
$4,000. has shipped 10 tons of ore, which melted
over $4,000, and s1,5Oo,Ooo is offered for this
mine today. Stock in the PORTLAND MINE,
which was the market u year ago, is selling
at advance of $500 per cent, for each 81 900
invested profit of $4,000 was secured. The
TOM BOY NINE which sold at Si5O0eO less
than two years ago, is paying 100000 per month
in dividends TOMMY GROUSE OF Marysville.
Mon. impoverished miner. He drove Il
300 foot tunnel into u mountain opposite Marysville
and found vein Of 219 feet deep, averaging
20 feet In width and running Ssh per ton He

discovery to an English syndicate for $3.50 900,
and the mine has since paid $4,000, 900 in
dividends. He is now called Mr.. Grouse. and
not Tommy. The leading gold mine in the United
States is the UTICA NINE of Calaveras county.
Cal This mine was not paying proposition
from the commencement. After expenditure
of considerable money the owners unable to
brig the mine to the development necessary to
obtain the fruit of thei, hhor, and obliged
to secure more capital After additional
pcr1iture Of only 5000 the mine began to pay.
and is now earning $2O0, 900 monthly. The Mercur
Mine of Utah laid Idle a long time for want of
capital and intelligent Development but Is now
paying $4,000 month in dividends. These

ONE OF THE GREATEST SOURCES OF REEVE
ME- Of THIS PARENT COMPANY WILL BE
THE ADDING OF THE LAST FEW DOLLARS TO
THE THOUSANDS PREVIOUSLY EXPENDED IN
ENTERPRISES LIKE TIE ABOVE. AND THUS
TURN FAILURE INTO SUCCESS. All of these
mines, and in fact. every mine in the world, orig
iLally cost nothing We propose to secure a large
Lumber near that price ms possible.
Leaving out good management the modern scicn-
tifc processes for obtaining gold from the ore are
so far In advance Of couple of years ago that
success Is now certain with number of mines
whose assayed high in the laboratory but whose
results at the mill previously unsa tisfacor,
Miners used to place the same kind of Il plant and
follow practically the same methods for all kinds
of ore. They commenced at the wrong end. Now
the treatment necessary be decided upon In ad-
vance and the proper kind of plant erected. 1t
cost nearly all the bullion secured in two years
from mine interested in before the cor
rect methods were discovered and before it was
thought necessary to do the experimenting first on
intention to erect plants pnIyl In established gold
bearing districts, and IftEdaae We strike a poor
property to plant to other localities In
the same neiGhborhood; always retaining ownership
in the plant and machinery. s-'
Mining localities In which we have already OBJ
tanned an interest either by purchase, option or
otherwise, are in Cripple Creek. Col, Montana and
Utah. Our prospectors, engineers and experts are
In the field; all of tried experience and the
highest Endorsement. We have lost time. MIR

OF GOLD Is ABOUT TO BE RELEASED FROM
