gronl which adioins the Walters
prop ty on the east, which in fact

to hrrison, This proximity is
mensned as an inspiration to pros
pectS who may expect to find ore

meat that such discovery, with
the TsToad in sight, would be Il
bon3<n to the owner, who could
well lord to pay the finder for his
timd1d pains. The TINES throws

I he mineral honors Of the past
week, ct necessity goes to the Red
Buck mine, sections IA and and Is,
81, y, this county. The distinction
is merited, upon the score of its
ore, its massiveness and value.
Several hundred pounds have been
placed on exhibition in town, one
stack at the TIMES office: and in con-
sequence, all Missouri-Kansas zinc
men who have seen it, pronounce it
to be Identical in color and charac-
ter with that of the Gray Eagle mine
Belleville district, west of Joplin
1t is in appearance much like the
Lemmen-Layton ore, Dodd City dis
trict, Marion county, this state,
but it is heavier and in much more
massive form. An unusual interest
which attaches to the property is
its occurrence in a brecciated flint
at the water level Of Bee creek, which
territory shows an ore level 13 feet
thick, at depth of 60 feet below
the drain surface, seA Of 70, 81, 21.
