W. r. Askew, representing an eastarn
company, has bonded Koshland & Co.'S.
halt Interest in the Greenwood mine
near Signal, and has put a force Of
twenty men at work opening up the
property. Mr.. Askew's company con-
troll the other half of the mine, having
recently purchased the interest of AL
Grant, who was the other owner.
The Greenwood mine is composed of
mountain of low grade gold ore, run
ning from - to as high as 20s per ton.
In early days ten stamp mill was put
up on the Sandy about six miles from
The mine to treat the ore and a wagon
road built and thousands of dollars
expended in an endeayor to make the
mine pay, although the mill never
made but two runs, and didn't save
enough gold to fill the managers false
teeth, and the decayed, rust-eaten mill
remains standing today as evidence of
mismanaged mining enterprise. The
whole secret of the former failure lies
In the fact that the gold in the ore was
so light that it fioated off i'm the tailings
and the values lost b. the process then
in use, in consequence of which this
valuable property has remained idle
for over twenty-five years.
We do not know what process the
new owners will inaugurate, but we do
know that Mr.. Askew is a mining man
who has learned the business in the
school of practical experience, and un-
derstands what he has undertake
We wish the promoters success.

granite was unveiled as an eternal wit
ness to the loyalty and heroic self-sac-
riice of a young and cultivated girl
during the trying days of the Spanish

that many a soldier boy bears her, some
of them from Worcester and Worces-

tribute than in the words of Charles

When the war with Spain broke out

Many a man was nursed by her back

On the day that the first contingent
of wounded men were transferred to
the Washington barracks after a month
at Monroe, she expended every dollar
of her previous months salary as a
nurse in purchasing delicacies that
they might the better enjoy the triI
