STRONG COMPANY FORMED.
To Operate Lead Proposition In
Duck Creek District.

Parties owning some valuable claims
in the Duck Creek district some eight
cen miles from Cherry Creek, New,
have been in town for several days
working up a company to operate their
possessions, and it was given out by one
of those interested last night that dur
ing the next few days-possibly with
in day or two-that company, with
such men as Henry Dinwoodey, George
A. Lowe, DR.. T. B. Beatty and Oblad
q knight, the carriage manufacturers.
will have Joined hands with the pres
ent owners and formed a. corporation
for the purpose of actively working the
ground. Messrs. Dinwoodey and Lowe
each own property adjoining the group
which is to form the basis Of the COM
pany, and they are consequently anX-
io"s re see the union of interests eff
fected- The property is known as the
Fippen group, and in il are two strong
Lodges of high-grade lead ore, which
averages over so per cent lead and four
ounces in silver and several thousands
of dollars worth of it has been taken
out IN doing assessment work and sold
at nice margin of profit, notwith-
standing a long haul to the railroad.
One of the main incentives behind the
present movement is understood TO be
a belief that the contemplated cutoff
or branch road of the Southern Pacific
railway will cut So close TO the Duck
Creek mines that they can be made
paying propositions from the start, and
the men behind the present scheme are
determined to get to work in time to
take early advantage of the chance the
new line will give them tc get their
product to market at a reasonable cost.
