 Sometime ago it was reported that the Dempsy ODea mines would be taken over by an eastern company on the first of September. but so far nothing can be learned on the sub feet. The mines have been developed to depth of more than loo feet by the owners and they have kept steadfastlv at work ever since the discovery and have exposed great bodies of high grade milling ore. The mines are situated close to a big body of water and the expenditure of only few thousand dollars will bring water enough into the camp for all mining and milling purposes.
