'REsH BOILED BULLION.


Anent the recent shipment Of the late
clean up of the Golden Slipper, through
the First National Bank Of this place, a
Hill City special TO the Deadwood Pio-
neer says: A mess Of fresh boiled
bullion was shipped last night from the
First National bank Of Custer calculated
to cause the orbs of capital to bulge out.
1t was the cleanup from about 200 tons
Of Golden Slipper ore taken out from
that steady producer under Mart Dodge's
Development contract. The milling wac
done at the J. K. mill, and while the
estimates made from the basis of for
msr mill runs will place the value of
the brick at from 5000 to $4,000. The
resumption of work at the Slipper with

located about one mile north of the city
were brought to this office on Thursday,
the quality Of which will bear favorable
comparison with any ever mined in the
United States. Tests made in Chicago
and other places have fully established
this fact. The vein, which is remark
ably we'll defined, presenting every in
dication Of permsnence, is 20 inches in
width and the ore has shown marked
improvement even at the limited depth
attained as compared with that found
upon the surface. The ore exists in a
formation of character that makes it
possible to mine il at nominal cost Of
fifty cents per ton which leaves a very
handsome margin of profit, the owners
having refused an offer from a Chicago
party, of $50 per ton for the product on
the dump. Negotiations for the sale Of
this promising property to a Chicago
company are now pending.
