CiNi@-AA 4 Al4l-os Ic.-OOfno tlmO
ago the STANDARD printed among the
ureat Fails items letter from William
Martin, formerly a resident of Monarch,
this county, who for the past year has
been prospecting in the Rainy Lake
country in Southern Manitoba. Last week
some of his friends here received very
tangible evidence of the richness of the
country in the shape of about 200 pounds
OF ore, which had been sent to the silver
smelter to be sampled and assayed. The
latter process is not completed yet but
experts who have seen the ore pronounce
1t fabulously rich. Some of the pieces of
the ore were so rich in native silver that
1t could be cut off with pocket knife To
look at the ore ono would think it had
been sailed SO thick are the chunks eff
silver. conservative estimate made by
n mining man. who is not easily mistaken
on such questions, placed the ore on a par !
with the richest ever mined in the Conn |
stock lodes. Martin did not write telling
where he got the ore, whether from a |
prospect hole or developed mine, but |
the superstition is that it came from the |
former. If there is but one good lead car
rylng such ore as he sent to his friends |
here there will surely be n stampede into
that country in the spring.

lvened the occasion with n serenade.
