Tuesday morning force of men
was put to ~ork timbering the Later .. on
the Saratoga vein, prior to the awarding
of Q contract for the continuance OF the
drift on the vein to connect with the
mine workings. Quite number OF
samples have been taken OF the vein
matter. all confirming the report exciu-
sively IN last weeks Siftings. that II is
the creates, strike ever made in the his
tory of the district. Samples of the
mill dirt from two feet Of the vein Tues
day, gave returns of o.SA ounces gold,
seven ounces silver. and six per cent.
copper. a grose value Of S7z.o3 per ton.
Samples from four feet OF the vein gave
returns of o.7s ounce gold, and seven
per cent. copper. or a gross value OF
f7s IS per ton. Neither Of the samples
contained any of the solid copper-iron
smelling ore. the streak of which carries
values of from $50 to SIoo per ton. The
entire product from the vein will be
shipped direct to the smelters. and does
not require sorting. 1t is of a very de-
sirable character for smelling on account
of the copper contents. and commands q
small treatment charge.
It is estimated by those in po-
sition TO know, that enough ore has
been extracted from the heading, and
thrown over the dump. to more than pay
for the total cost Of the work per
formed in mahirg the counec-
ton. The work was done under con.
tract and no attention was paid to the
values in the ore. Every pound Of orc
extracted will be saved, and the owners.
Messrs. Morgan and Owen. will realize .
handsome profit over the cost Of doing
the dead work Of making the connection
with the upper workings
A. A. Ireland. Of Golden. was in the
city Tuesday and made a personal in
spection of the strike. He was greatly

and stated the strike would be very

Hill. Il believe those who wore the

He jerked off his coat and went to

there was a queer blur before his eyes.
Hill came up with the bag and heard
all that Greta Fallows had to say. On
his way back he told his companion
what she had said
''She's proud little woman. She
would not take all that Miss Delamere
would have given her, for she's poor,
