slight depth, the owners are much en-
couraged to believe that they will soon
have a shipper.
Goldfeld-hajestic.
The Goldfield- Majestic is the name OF
a corporation recently formed by promi-
nent Colorado mining men, who are
working on lines that would seem al
most to insure success in this wonderful
camp. The company owns an interest
in five other companies, nearly all OF
which have very well located property.
They are the Detroit Consolidated Min
ing company, the Gold Queen Mines
company, the Alcalde Gold Mining COM
pany, the Helena Gold Mining company
and the Knickerbocker Gold Mining
company.
The Detroit company own 80 acres
near the famous Quartzite, the Goldfield
Bull Dog and the Black Ants. The
| Cold queen company owns 80 acres adj
joining the Adams, the General Wash
| ington, Black Diamond and Valley View
claims, and not far from the Bonanza
claim of the Conqueror Gold Mining
company. The Alcalde company owns
Is acres adjoined on the north and east
by the Tioga claim of the Gold Button
company, and on the south by the prop
erty of the Goldfeld Lucky Strike COM
pany. The Helena Gold Mining com
pany owns S5 acres adjoining the prop
erty of the Red Butte Gold Mining COM
pany, and the Fawn-Goldtield Mining
company. The Knickerbocker company
owns 35 acres, which is but short dis
tance from the TinhOrn claim of the
Dixie Mining company.
1t seems almost a certainty that at
least one of these five well located
groups will make a mine, and if so, the
Goldfeld- Majestic company is bound to
prove winner. l.. f. Hill of Denver, is
the president, and Francis j. Hobbs of
Colorado Springs, is the secretary-treas-
urer of the Goldfeld-Majestic company.
