character of ore taken from the new

same as has been taken from other

and the fact Is the Bullion Beck mine

very encouraging; and while the regret

There has been q great deal Of devel-
opment work done In this property and
"a great quantity Of silver ore that, at

mine exposed. The fact Is stated on the
very best authority. that with the ad-
vent OF the free and unlimited coinage

The history Of this property for the
year 1900 has been punctuated with
periods Of interruption In its ore ship

As Is well known, the Godiva ores

equally well-known fact 10, that the
ore bodies in the Godiva lime, are

In character, 20 some extent, as COM

The ore bodies In the "Godlva lime"
consist mainly OF silver and lead. with
some gold and very little copper. The
silver lead ores are very clean and
bright, the cubes OF galenR sparkling In
the rock like diamonds; and as a gen
