Deadwood. S. D., April 1.-THE recent-
ly discovered Holy Terror mine in the
keystone district, which was bonded
before it's richness was known, has been
sold to S. w. Allerton of Chicago, ac-
cording to what appears to be well
founded report. The bond called for
$125,00o n ran to April Is. The average
richness of the ore is not far from 800
per ton, so far as can now be deter
mined, and there is said to be not far
from 100, 900 tons of that class of rock
already in sight in shaft and drift.
me evening of July 2, last year, the
few men at work on the keystone asked
and gained permission to take ore from
hat was supposed to be a pocket near
by and to pound 1t up with a pestle and
mortar to get what they could for
Fourth of July money. This they did,
and the result led toHsome further de-
Velopments. Old Bill Franklin, a Cor
nishman and ne'er-do-weel miner, Who
was at the bottom of the little shaft
they put in, excitedly exclaimed one
day, Boys, shes a oily terror" He had
seen what had not ~gladdened his old
eyes in all his twenty-five years of pros
pecting in those hills. a CLEAN of the
free gold in quantity surprisingly large.
