never been out of good ore for one day.
The company has an immense amount
of milling ore already blocked out, and
are pushing the construction Of their
100 ton mill with all possible speed,
and before next Independence day this
mill will be turning out dividends "to
beat the band" This stock is now
selling at 30 per share and is intrinsi-

VIM Ryan states that the Copper Belle
I mine at Gleason will undoubtedly prove
one of the big mines of the territory.
| 1t has been opened to depth of BOO feet
and the ledge is 300 feet wide. The
ore is a high grade sulphide averaging
eight or nine per cent copper and carry
