Copper Shares.
Safest Investment, Largest Dividends.

A po pon of the full paid and worcestershire capital stock of the Boston Texas
copper Company is offered for sale at Five Dollars per share Cmr $40 for Treasury
purposes, and is recommended as a safe and highly promising investment.
The company controls twelve thousand acres o. rich copper land in North Texas
which is also valuable for farming and town site purposes. The tract is some 10
mes long and about three miles wide. tits equivalent in sizeto five hundred ordi-
nary mining claims.
The property has been developed sufficiently to begin producing at once, large
amount of the richest copper IRE GO to 70 pei cent? taken tut and marketed, and
ine1hausdble quantities of copper mari and clay running from 3 to Is per cent
copper found. Calumet and H@la and other great dividend payers are working on
1 to 3 per cent m3
The property is within u lille of a railroad and fuel and water are available.
The Dress and mari are OF the surface an a few feetd down, and can be mined and
converted Into copper cheaper than any other deposits in America. Copper will be
produced OF the ground and a plant of moderate cos will treat 300 to 500 tons of
ore and material pei day, and according to engineers estimates earns 5000 tos $4,000
per day net with copper at Is cts per pound. Tits now 10 cts per pound.

From Report of Prof. VIM. DeRyee, former State Chemist Of Texas.
"Such numerouso uhops of copper ore have beer traced over rifles summit and
sides of those hills that u of $4,000 aces Of land which the company own, hardly
a 100 acret tract should be found without oeu upon the surface.
A crosscutt to the depth of Is fetw vas made upon the 1sbel lead, and ten
hours work resulted in the raising Of 5000 lbs. of rich copper ore, averaging about
60 per- cent. of copper. Worth $3.50, metz
It'll easily smehed and the strata in whchitis found can also be more econom-
iuny e1cavated than other in which copper oreso occur"
From Report of Prof. w. F. cummins, former biologist of Texas.
y : n In order that I might see the condition If this lode after this amount
Of work had been done, I employed a few hands and cleaned out the tunnels
when fonnd a lode of copper. This is the disuphae of copper and will yield as
high as 70 per cent. Of copper. I drove the tunnel twenty feet further intot the
hill, following the lode. When I had gone about twelve feet I struck another
lode Of copper eighteen inches east and six inches below the second lode. In three
feet more we struck another lode below the second lode. Immediately below the
lower sandstone ais stratum of cupif@ous mari schias extending the entire width
Of tn tunnel SAY four feet, ad is probably much WIDER 1ls mari will lLd
about Is per cent. of copper"
From Report Of Prof. dustave westman, Mining Engineer.
81 beg to express my entire satisfaction with and confidence in the report
made by Prof. W. F. Cummns'
I only had TO remove ne footo # earth from the surface on the three spots
already mentioned in order to find large deposits bedded into the clay. After
Washing this clay wasf found Ito contain Is prc cent of copper ore Of same value as
above. These oresc could Of courseb be taken out and made available at a relatively
small expense.
