sinking a 30-foot shaft took out 20
tons of ore. This ore was rocked
in an ordinary gold rocker and
gave S2S per ton. The tailings
from this 20 tons were then run
through stamp mill and yielded
$50 per ton, making a total of $50
per ton saved. These facts were
published in the FREE PRESS

company have had 23 ton mill
run made from ore taken out dur

they realized SIT per ton. @ ,

"A TRIP TO FLORENCE.
A Hasty Inspection of the "Ban-
ner" Mine and Sundry
Notes by the WAY.

During the late campaign tn,
editor of the old reliable FREI
Press visited Florence to whooI
it up for Bryan and free silver
and while in the camp took ad
vantage ola spare hour to 20
through the "Banner" mine. As
the property is Incorporated and
stock in same about to bo placed
on the market we herewith give
our observations for what they are
worth to intending investors.
The Banner mine is located al
the head Of Black Sand creek
about one mile south of the town
of New Florence. The course OF
the vein is 160 north of east, and
it dips to the south. The first
90 feet on the shaft the ledge was
perpendicular, but below that
point it has dip of 25o. The
property is developed by cross
cut tunnel 800 feet long. Where
the vein was cut it shows eight
feet of ore and Is feet of ledge
matter. From this point an up
raise was made to the original dis
covery shaft, giving perpendicu-
lar depth of 1O2 feet. Contracts
have been let for sinking an ad-
ditional 100 feet at the same point,
and this work is Cat this writing)
now in progress. The property
is well equipped with substantial
dwellings and necessary buildings.
The Banner is but one of the
eleven claims which comprise the
celebrated "Gold Bug Banner
group" Two Incorporated COM
panies have been formed from
these eleven claims, under the
style of Gold Bug Mining Co.,
and Banner Mining Co. The Gold
Bug group consists of the Gold
Bug, Gold Cross, Mystery, Inde-
pendence, Golconda, Little Chief,
Faction and Tryangle. The Ban
ner group comprise the Banner
anu ESineFalua.
On the Banner at the time of
our visit ten men were working on
drifts both ways from the crosscut
where the ledge was struck; an
upraise was being made to connect
with the 55 foot shaft sunk from
the surface. The vein in the up-
raise is from two to three feet
wide and gives assay values of s25
to $50 gold per ton. In the lower
east drift the ore body runs from
two to ten feet wide. The dis
tance run on the ledge since the
vein was struck is about 100 feet
in length. A mill run of ten tons
OF average ore taken promiscuous-
ly from the dump, without any at
tempt at sorting, gave a result of
$40 per ton saved on the plates. |
Enough ore is now in sight to run
a 10 stamp mill and the intention
Of the company is to put up such a
mill early next spring, and will be |
to add an additional 10 |
stamps when needed.
THE GOLD BUG GROUP.
The Gold Bug group have six
men and some rich ore had been
found few days before our visit.
The ore from this group runs phe-
nomenally high in gold, assays
having been made giving results of
s1100 per ton. The width of the
pay streak shows from Is to 20
inches. With a little more work
IN this group some rich develop
nents may be looked for in the
uture.

INTERESTING TO ALL CITIZENS.
 One of the most urgent needs of the immediate future in Mena will be hail suitable for public meetings and lodge purposes. Among our citizens arc many members of the various secret orders, and very soon they will begin to look about them for their brothers and prepare to organize local lodges. There is a good building now under construction bv the Mena Tewnsite Company, and we are informed that if any concerted action be taken bY our citizens the upper story will be fitted for commodious hall for public purposes and with conycn- ient ante rooms necessary to lodges. The location, corner of De Queene and Port Arthur, is sll that can be desired and we sincerely hope that an affair of so much importance to so great a number of our citizens will not be neglected. The long winter even ings will soon be with Us and then. our people will feel the want of a place suitable for their gatherings. Every man and woman in this city should be interested in this matter.
