HEAR YE!

A sample of ore from the Leroy mine
four miles west of Custer was recently
assayed by Harry Way and gave re-
turn Of 100000 per ton in gold. Four
men are working in the mine, which is
steadily improving as depth is attained.
The Leroy is all right.
A round of shots in the Sunbeam mine
last week broke into some of the richest
Hills or any where else for that matter.
Some Of the samples were seen by
CHRONICLE reporter and they certainly
sustain all reports of the richness. 1t
was said pieces of solid gold as large as
half dollars dropped out of the seams of
some of the rock. This mine is situated
about five miles north of Hill City on
Friday gulch and belongs to theSunbeam
Mining & Milling Co., of which Mr.. }.
n. Wright and two sons of this place
are among the principal stockholders.
G. G. Bras of Mitchell, this state, was
an arrival in the city Sunday evening
from Hill City, where he had spent sew
eral days looking oyer the interests Of
the Fraternity Gold Mining and Milling
company, of which he is secretary. The
company owns about 200 acres Of very
promising mining ground about three
miles northwest of Hill City. Recently
they have installed machinery to sink
shaft to the depth of 200 feet. Cross
cuts will be run on the 100 and 200 foot
levels and the vein thoroughly prospect
ed. The stock is mostly held by people
in the eastern part of the state, and two
or three parties from Hill City, among
them Z. Ericsson, who is president and
general manager Of the company, and
one of the original locators. Mr.. Bras
stated that the company has am pie funds
in the treasury with which to thorough
ly prospect the ground. He was we'll
pleased with the progress and showing
made on the property.
