The Chairman ledge passes through the
entire length Of the Chairman mine to the
west end OF the location and continue on
its westward course through the turkey
and mines. These mines are but little
prospected, and nothing is known of their
value except that they are on the eX-
tension of the Chairman and Aultman lode.
The same can lie said OF the Southern Cross
mine. There is some more work done upon
the Southern Cross Samples taken from

tween the Southern Cross and the Chain
man mines lies the
THE GOLDEN REVENUE.
The property of Messrs Simpon, Campton,
Harris and others, There is a shaft and
other workings upon the mine that expose
a large vein of ore that assays s. to the ton

tom; but very little prospecting has been
done. West of the Golden Revenue and
South OF the Chainm&a lies the
