The following clipping from a
Baker, Oregon, exchange tell of the
good fortune of our former fellow
townsman, Charlie Clure:
Sunday, w. c. Shreves, Charlie
Clure and w. w. Oliver, partners in
the deal, reported that Friday they
had opened up a ledge of nagnifi-
cent free gold ore on the Three Sis
tiers, and exhibited specimens of the
ore to many admiring friends.
The property is but four and one
half miles west from the CITY, lies
between the Hindman property of
Geiser and the Pocahontas Belle.
and is in the Washington gulch
just above the placers. 1t consists
of three claims, the Ella, Alice and
Mile, named for the wives of the
owners.
A two-foot shaft was sunk on one
of the claims, opening three feet of
ore without touching the hanging,
wall. The ore is exactly the same
in character and quality as the Bo-
nanza ore and will make the boys
millionaires if there is any quantity
of it.
Mr.. Shreves, who spent the sum
mer in the Seven Devils country,
said to a Republican man: I'm sor-
~ | wasted my time over there
instead of coming here sooner, be-
cause by this time could have had
much development work done on
my mine, which / believe is hum
mer.'"

membership of 20. Its inception was
merely for the pleasure of q few per-
sons who desired TO become familiar
with the shotgun, SO they might handle
it safely and be able to kiu game

and still is to furnish facilities for such
sport at minimum cost. II has received

Many of the best shooters at the trap
in this section have gained a large part
of their experience on he grounds of

less elevation than few seasons ago.
A committee was chosen at the last

Harvard got in line by coming to Wor-

broke the worlds record for a mile tan

of Buffalo, New York. Newhouse is
known on every track in the country.
He rode a tandem with AL Wenig, and
was one of the pacemakers who pulled
