RICH GOLD DISCOVERY.


A dispatch from Casper Wyo., says
that for some weeks there
has been rumor of very
rich gold discovery on the line Of
Natrona and Carbon counties in Wyo.,
by Tom Wagner, who is said to have
hauled a wagon load of ore 400 miles
to Deadwood and got $1,000 returns
from 1t.
Last week carload of provisions,
supplies and mining tools were unload-
ed and hauled from Casper, almost
before 1t was known. This still fur
Their excited prospectors and miners,
some of whom attempted to shadow
Mr.. Wagner and locate the mysterious
gold find. In this they failed, how
ever, but this week Mr. Wagner was
again in Casper after several four
horse loads of supplies and was in
duced to talk about his discovery.
He said the discovery was made last
July on Pedro mountain, siXty-five
miles southwest of Casper. and that
assays that run into hundreds of dol
lars caused him to have mill runs
made that equaled the assays in rich
ness. Then he took n wagon load to
Deadwood, which yielded him more
than thousand dollars. Liberal offers
to sell were rejected. and finally Il
banker friend at Deadwood agreed to
stake Mr.. Wagner in consideration of
an interest in the property. The offer
WIS acCepleu, the money advanced, ana
Mr. Wagner returned i'm September
with a force of miners and has been
engaged ever since in making locations
and doing the required assessment
work. He now has upwards of fifty To-
cations made and the assessment work
done. and starts the latter part of the
week to Rawllns to make his filings.
All the work done thus far has been
assessment work, and all assays and
mill runs have been from surface rock,
but actual development work will be-
gin this week and carload be sent to
Denver for smelling by new years.
Mr.. Wagner furthermore declared
his intention of putting in a smelter as
n private enterprise, and has taken up
all the water rights along the line of
his lead. The lead touches the famous
Indian Grove ranch and Mr. Wagner
