half ounces from this streak were pounded
in. a mortar. yielding nearly $50 in gold.
The owners declare that half a ton Of
picked ore will yield over $4,000.
The copper ore of the White Horse dis
trict is very rich and there seems to be
no end Of it. The belt so far discovered
is about fourteen miles long by two miles
wide, and equally rich ore is found in all
parts of the belt. The assays run as high
as 72 per cent. copper, $40 In gold and four
teen to fifteen ounces in silver. Several

AN OLD MANS STORY.

They say gambling Is not allowed in
Anaconda. but this is untrue, according
to the story of an old man who refused
to give his name, but said he had two
sons who, through the money they
suuandered on the observation-disclosures
machines and other manner of gambling,
were unable to pay their bills. More
over, he and his wife, who are now aged
and dependent on the boys for support,
often found themselves without the COM
forts of life. You can say what you
please about stud poker and draw poker
but the pesky Observation-Disclosures ma
chimes are the most Internal machines
on earth. A man win change a dollar
into nickels and put them in the ma
chine and sometimes never get a smell.
The playing of these machines affects
me so that I have watched 'em n they
are money makers, there is no mistake.
I was in a saloon n day when they
We're counting up the nickels played in
one machine. and there must of been a
heap, which would make about $25. The
men Who stood around said the saloon
man got half and the man who owned
the machine got half. They also said
his an owned several machines, and
hen I wondered how much license the
city got for allowing machines to gather
up my boys and other peoples boys
money. Another thing I can't under
stand is the difference between stud n
draw poker. They say it is all right to
play draw poker, but l cannot under
stand why that kind is n better than
stud poker. The boys know, but they
won't tell me. I have asked several
about it. Some say they don't know. but
I know they do, but they won't tell me-"
