A new ENTERPRISE.
The Orville Gold and Copper Co., Now
Ready For Business.

The copper mining industry has
paid more money in dividends compar-
ed with other industries, within the
last thirty years, than any other bust
ness. II any person doubts these
facts all Ow him to make as long a list
of commercial banking or manufacture
ing companies and see if he can make
a list showing dividends as great.
We have now III Barre the head
Office of, probably the richest copper
claims in British Columbia: the name
of the Co., being The Orville Gold &
Copper Mining Co. The officers are
Richard A. Hoar, president; O. d..
Hoar, secretary; +. G. Kennedy of
Burlington, treasurer. The directors
are Richard A. Hoar, O. d. Hoar, r.
c. Kennedy, A. L. Kennedy and Geo.
S. McCarter of RevelstOke.
O. d. Hoar is well known mining ex-
pert, especially of copper, and has been
superintendent of the Abbott Group
of Mines Of Trout Lake, B. c., also the
manager for the Empire Mines Com
pany, of London, England, but he has
thrown these good positions aside in
order to be able to devote all hts time
to the new company.
This company controls six full
claims IN British Columbia, each con-
sisting of ground 1900 feet by 1900
feet, measured horizontally, and in
cludeS all minerals contained within
the vertical sides of the square. They
are divided into two groups of three
claims each; the first being the Red
Fox group, which consists of three
claims, viz, Red Fox, Blue Fox, and
Tangier. The three claims lie in one
extension, w. S. w. and f. N. f. on
vein So. exposed for $500 feet and are
situated between the north and mid
die forks Of Fifteen Mile Creek, a tri-
butary running into the Columbia
River at point about six miles south
Of Golden station on the main line of
Canadian Pacific Railway in British
Columbia. The second group is called
Good Luck Group and consists of
Good Luck, Cinnamon and Copper
Cliff claims, and is situated at the
head of tributary of the South Fork
of Canyon Creek on the north side of
the mountain from the Certainty
Company's property and about one
mile distant and in the same contact
or about ten miles from the Golden
Copper Smelling Works at Golden,
b. y.
1t must be understood that these
properties are, not developed mines,
but their indications and prospects
freely warrant considerable money
being expended in opening them up.
From the amount Of development
work it can be truly said that they
have opened up splendidly and should
well repay any outlay that is made
thereon. Veins that are SO persis-
tent in both strike and dip being
traceablc for over $500 feet EACH.
give every promise of becoming pay
ing mines.
The properties, which this compa-
ny will operate, are of the very best
kind, adjoin and are between two
of the best copper groups in America
today, which are developing unusual
rich properties. Having, as it has, a
practical miner, Mr.. O. d. Hoar as
manager, this company will be better
equipped than most mines. Mr..
Hoar lisa heavy stakeholder in the
company, and is considered one of the
most thorough and reliable mining
men in British Columbia.
The main office of this company is
in the Miles building, with Milo +.
Burnham as local agent, who is ready
to fully explain the property and
prospects. Applications for stock,
at 70 cts. per share, should be made
to him. The price per share is small
considering you are buying in a COM
pany with such bright prospects, and
a few hundred dollars invested now
may place you among the copper
kings of the day.
