 The NaEEsganset mine in the Santa Ritae, rear Rosemont, has been surpris- ing it's friends of late. The mine has
 been owoed and periodically worked
 since 1879 by MF. K Brown. The main working shaft is down 115 feet
 and fine body of ore, eveTsgIpg 26
 per cent copper without sorting has
 been uncovered. Some 400 feet of drifting has also besn done on the
 claim. The lsst shipment of ore amounting to IS tons, netted it's foHtu- nate proprietor $500. MT. Brown is at present detained here on business be- fore the courts, but expects shortly to return to Rosemout and push opera tions on the mine.

The young man replied that he did not know, and then proceed to relate a sad tale of wForg end desertion.

When told that after msrPi- age license had once been issued it can nos bs returned; he asked if he could !! get another if he should wish it. He was informed that he could, aud he put the unIuoky piece of paper in his pocket and departed.
