Canon City seems to have a gold
mine. This at least is the opinion
Of practical miners and mining ex-
perts. The Denver papers have been

Dawson, d. W. Bonewitz while exca-
waiting for cabin encountered a
ledge of rock which was literally
alive with free gold, the bright metal
sparkling all through the pieces
broken of. Some Of the ore not
showing much gold was sent to Lead
vile and assayed. the rsult giving
fabulous riches. One sample gave
returns of S16.dto and the other
$500. The facts wereS concealed
as long us possible IN order TO gain
time for securing the property by

further developments. Possibly the
excitement might have betn delayed

facts TO his papers.
