BUSINESS MEN IN LUCK.

Several local business men interested
In Western mining property went up to
Pittsburg yesterday where largely at
tended meeting of those interested was
held, and it is reported that the con-
ditions were favorable for very sangu-
inc expectations. The local gentlemen
some time ago picked up large blocks
of stock in the particular mines con-
cerned at sc per share. 1t is now
quoted at 20@22c, and there is every
evidence that it may double in few
weeks, as it is claimed about 100000
worth of fine ore is now on the dump,
and ten times as much actually in
sight. The venture will doubtless be a
very remunerative one, and those who
got in on the ground floor at nominal
figures are to be G. Graduated.
