Marysvale People Would Like to
Meet Fakir Brice.

tons of antimonial ore passed through

to San Francisco. A carload was sent
east recently, and as a result Mi.
Penny, the superintendent, says that
he is receiving orders for this class OF
ore almost every day He has six or
ders ahead now that he has not COM
menced to fill. The antimonial ores in
this part of the country are said to be
richer and return larger per cent Of
anthony than ores from almost any
other camp in the country, but last
winter the Brice fiasco gave the bust
ness a black eye. Now we believe it is
on solid foundation. and hope 1t will
attain large proportions.
A large number of people in this part
of the country would like to meet that
man Brice or some of his agents again.
To furnish him ore for his gold-making
process they labored diligently
strained their credit and mortgaged
their teams to get the ore to the depot,
for which he or his company never
paid one cent.

cade, are getting ready to make ship

The wheat from these sections, or the

property which he now owns and did
own at the time of said representations
is about $4,000. consisting of several
