Reported Strike In Tetro.

Late yesterday afternoon it was
stated on the street that word had just
been received from Eureka to the effect
that an important strike had been made
in the Tetro mine, on Godiva noun
tain, and in consequence of this rumor
and the further report that Eureka
people were sending in orders for the
purchase of Tetro shares galore, the
stock of the company advanced a cent
or so in the bidding.
The Tetro is most favorably located.
1t adjoins the noted Godiva mine. and
it has long been the belief in certain
mining circles that with depth a fine
body of highg grade ore would be un-
covered in this property, and as the
work now in hand consists of the sink
ing of a winze on a fine quartz ledge,
operations being facilitated by the use
of machine drills, there is good reason
to believe that the report is correct.
