crossed to that extent that it will not
be difficult now to insure any amount
of financial assistance and cooperation,
but much of the success viii be due
to the indefatigable efforts of Mr.
Hunt, who has faced every adverse
gale, and carried the proposition along
when nearly everyone else abandoned
it. Since the continuity of the ore
chute has been determined and defined
from the old slopes, sinking in the
perpendicular shaft will be resumed

each 100 feet.
The Silver Cloud is one of the many
new interpretations which sprung into
life year or more ago, though its
holdings have been worked at various
periods in the usual spasmodic way,
with more than ordinary results. The
ground owned by the company includes

This company owns sixteen claims.

located due east of the Crown Point
in the vicinity of what was Familiarity
known as the Noon Iron mine, the cor

The country contiguous to the Ruby
Hill holdings is marked by tremendous
lodges of iron ore, sufficiently high in
percentage of metallic iron to possess
great value as fiuxing ore. Work was
commenced in the Ruby HILL ground

UNA CONSOLIDATED.
The Una Consolidated is an out
growth of comparatively recent re-
quirementS, incorporated at a time
when there was an excessive demand
for anything and everything in the
Tintic country. Not that the demand
has so materially abated, or that the
Una securities are any the worse for
having been created at that particular
period. The Una ground could scarce
ly be more favorably located, and it is
believed that time and development
work will demonstrate that it's pos
sessions are more than ordinarily val
liable. The south end lines OF the Una
company join on the Alaska, recently
started again to market ore and the
north lines adjoin the new Iron Bios
som company, who are vigorously pros
ecuting work. People who pretend to
