the advertisement or the gro
Grande Exploration & Development
Company, which has lately secured
some valuable claims in the vicinity
of the famous Orc Grande. The
Company is Offering q small block
of emergency stock" at a figure
which cannot but attract the at
tention of investors looking for an
opportunity to get in on the ground
floor. AS soon as this first block
of stock is sold, development work
will be started on the more prom
ising showings and work will be
vigorously prosecuted in an effort
to open up a mate to their near
neighbor, the Orc Grande. They
have some excellent showings and
many reasons for believing that
success will crown their efforts
There has been little but title work
done upon any Of the claims sur
rounding the Orc Grande, and
while the naturalization is very
noticeable upon many of them, no
one as yet has done any extensive
development work. This seems re-
markably strange when it is con-
sidered that the Orc Granee did
not discover their rich ore body
until about forty feet below the sur
face, and only then after many
different owners had let their title
lapse because they thought the
ground was barren. VIM. Scott,
the local brick mason and pros
pector, sank within a few feet OF
the ore body and finally Sold out.
for $25. A narrow escape-for
both Bill and the mine. The Of
ficers of the new company men
toned above are all prominent and
successful men. Charles H. Akers,
the president and general manager,
is the we'll known ex-Secretary of
Arizona, and an unusually success
full and far-seeing mining man.
Mr.. Akers was the first to recognize
the value of the ground adjoining
the Congress mine and secured the
same early last Spring. Despite
many PROJECTIONS that the ground
was barren, he enlisted eastern cap
ital and organized the Senate Gold
Co., which has since opened up
rich ore body, the character and
values of the ore at depth of 400
feet proving it to be continuation
of the Congress lodes. Mr.. Akers
has worked his way up from the
bottom of the ladder, and is a
parctical mining man, having
started with pick and drill over
twenty years ago. His association
with company is almost a guar
antee of success. Simon Ober-
fielder, the secretary and treasurer
of the company, is one of the best
known business men of Phoenix,
being the cashier OF the National
Bank of Arizona. The affairs Of
the company are sure Of careful and
conservative attention at his hands,
A good mine will often be failure
because of poor management, but
with such careful business men as
Simon Oberfelder and Charles
Goldmen attending to its affairs,
the Orc Grande Exploration q
Development Company will be
safe from any such danger.
Mr.. Goldman lisa member of the
firm of Goldman Brothers of
Phoenix, one of the oldest and best
established business firms IN
southern Arizona.
The company has the best wishes
of the News-eHrald, and as we
have stated repeatedly during the
past eighteen months, noplace in
Arizona offers more inducements to
capital than the neighorhood Of the
Orc Grande. Judging from the
showings and the experience OF the
Orc Grande, a little develop
ment work may open up a rich
mine
