AT THE DYSON.
Company Will Do a Lot Of
Development This
Season.

+. o. Bucknum, one Of the direc.

pany recently elected officers and Is
making preparations to carry on
development extensively this sum-
mer.
The property includes two claims,
the Dyson and the Tiger In the
Quartzburg district, and the work
heretofore done has revealed good
values. The Dyson vein has
been uncovered on the surface dis
tance Of 1000 feet showing oxidized
ore with heavy gold values, running
from $40 to $500. II IL eight inches
wide ut the south end and two and
half feet at the north end. The vein
IL intersected ut numerous places by
cross veins from one to two feet In
width. The tunnel started on the
south end Of the Dyson IL In l12 feet
showing increased width Of the vein.
A good deal Of the ore heretofore
taken out was milled with saving
of $50 to the ton, but owing to the
lack of cOncentrators much WAS
lost In the tailings.
Not 30 much work has been done
on the Tiger. There IL a thirty five
foot tunnel and shaft down some
distance. The property has good
cars, tracks, blacksmith shop and
other buildings. II IL an old
property. Ore was taken from
