Lua,bermen's Lans.

Right after selling his 18th street
home. Gilbert Campbell purchased
through Ragsdale the two corner lots
at 10th and Greenwood, which were
owned by F. A. Reynolds. These lots
are on the lower corner in same block
with the fine Gibson home Mr..
Campbell will begin at once to build
home that will be credit TO that
part of town. 1t is said that C. A.
Biggs is negotiating for the only re-
manning lots between Campbell and
Gibson, also with the intention Of
building home. In that event these
gentlemen who sell all the lumber
and much of the other building ma
terial. will undoubtedly petition the
council to rename that portion of
Greenwood avenue, Lumbermen's Lane,
which is certainly very appropriate
and swell sounding name.

A COPPER CAMP.
Much DeveIopmsnt Being Done In
DawsOn-Ths Showing In
Copper Very Oood.

Mention was made in the RECORD
some weeks ago about the plans to
open up the Copper King to consid-
cradle depth. Since then Supt. Play
has been doing some substantial
prospecting and has made some val
liable discoveries. He has found
what seems to be the ore chute.
Good copper ore in large quantities
is found in place. Tie ore will av-
erage about 35 psr cent copper and
shows some free gold. No assays
have been made since the fnd Satur-
day night
The company will now put down a
shaft which will cut the ore chute at
about 70 feet. Supt- Play now feels
confident that at that depth he will
encounter ore in shipping quantities.
A. Huber of Colorado Springs, who is
president Of the company. was down
Monday looking over the property
and was well pleased. While here
deals were made for more property
joining the Copper King. Some stock
has been sold for developing purposes
and several fair sized lunches have
been taken by Canon people at 5
cents. Two shifts are now at work.
Just over on the next hill from the
Copper King the Windy Point is be-
ing worked by Polly Bros, who it is
understood are backed by Cripple
Creek capital. A little while ago
they made quite valuable strike, Of
which very little was said. but they
went to work and secured leases on
55 scres Of adjoining properties.
They have q shaft down 65 feet. They
have good copper ore running from
20 to so per cent in copper and
showing some gold values, and evi-
IDENTIFY have something good.
