Vice President VAIL of the
above company has returned home
very much elated over his trip and
more than pleased with the min
ing property which his company
secured. The change from the
prairie country to the mountains
of Montana was pleasing and of a
novelty in its way.
While in Montana, MI. Vail
had some assays made of some
samples secured at the mines. The
folio wing is the report of Walter
w. Kroger, assayer at Phillipsburg,
Mont:
"This cert6es that the samples as
sayed for MI. A. FL. VAIL, assayed
as follows: No 1, 9 16-100 ounces
gold value per ton $1S3.00; Nc. 2
l 12-1O0, $22.40 value per ton" It
will be seen from the above assay
that the mines owned by the
company are valuable property.

The work train is in charge of
Conductor Cunningham and
brakeman Chas. Burlington, and
it will be here until the construc-
tion work is completed.
The work Of laying steel on the

The crew is hard at work and in
about twenty days expect to reach
