BACK FROM MOUNT BAKER.
A District Rich In Gold but Poor In

The richness of the mineral lodges IN the
Mount Baker district Is fully confirmed by
Joseph Rudderham. an old prospector,
who has recently returned from there. He
has no doubt that the ore bodies are in
true assure veins and says that only de-
veIopment is needed 70 prove this. In
speaking OF his observations, Mr.. Rudder-
ham said:
The Portland company which has bond
ed the Post-Ismbert claims and for which
Mr.. Stanis.awsk. liz manager. has put
down three small holes on the Lone Jack
claim. The ore continues the same as
that discovered last fall. carrying plainly
visible free gold and te.lur.des in shoots
one ao feet long, and two ranging from
sevsnty-fiye to 100 feet long. I also saw an
ore shoot in the Lulu. one OF the same
group. in no part OF which for distance
