Ore hauling from the North Star has
been suspended for the first time in
several months. and men, wagons and
teams have been sent to Springville
for rest and repairs. Hauling will be
resumed in a short time.
Four Aces people are jubilant over
this weeks developments in that pro-
perry. The ore vein on Wednesday
widened out to over twice its former
width and has also improved in quail
ity. -Four Aces viii soon be on the
shipping list.

holder in the Undine lease, advises US

We are much pleased to learn that
under the present system of pumping
back the water at the Beck mill that
company has now an abundant supply
Of water and the reservoir on the di-
vide is being rapidly filled This
should make an appreciate and sap-
preciated difference in Eureka insur-
ance rates
A party from the east were examin-
ing the Eagle property last Monday,
presumably IN the interest of capital
lists who have its purchase in mind,
but we are unable to learn whether or
not a deal is probable. The Eagle
has a record of producing $4,000 in
high-grade gold ore in the past and is
looked on as in every respect a first
class properly.
