 and in close relation to the s. F. P. & P. is the Gold Wave Mining com pany, which has bonded the Tucker and Holdan and Refs claims. IL is understood that the bond represented $100,000 and the first payment is due late in April. This may be paid early in January, however. Thirty men are employed. Shafts, cross cuts and tunnels have been opened. The sale may be consummated a long time be- fore the bond natures. That the proposition is a good one, MT. Cos tallo, the Buffalo capitalist, who is i-teTs5ted, admits, and he has ire quently expressed satisfaction with the prospect He is expected to re- turn from the east before llhe end of the year.
