The Bonnie Claire.

The old Gold Mountain district,
which in days gone by added a con
siderable quantity to the worlds
store Of gold, is coming to the front
again with giant strides and promises
SOFA 70 be one Of the great producers
Of the New Nevada, The district,
which is located from thirty to forty
miles southwest of Goldfeld, is an old
field, having been worked as far back
as the early seventies, and up to 1893
bad a p~ostofticc which was known as
Oriental. Since that date the few
people who have remained in the
camp have been getting their mail
from Ida, which, until the past week
was blessed with a once or twice a
week service.
People are now tiocking into "Old
Camp" which is the districts metro
polls, in such numbers aud so many
properties are being worked with
every Indication Of success and per-
maneucy. that an efforti is being made
and will likely succeed, to have Il
postal route established and "Old
Camp will once more be N the map.
1t is near this camp the Bonnie
Claire mine, OF which so much has
been heard lately, is located, aud
from all accounts it is a great prop
erty. Quite a large force OF men is
working there now and this will be
added to as fast as room can be made.
Considerable quantities Of ore are
being taken from the mine and placed
on the dump Later on it will be
taken to Ihorp's mill, which is being
rehabiiitated, and worked for its val.
ues, which consist largely Of conceu-
trates. The management Of the
Bonnie Claire is preparing to put a
20 stamp mill on the property, and
as soon as it is determined what pro.
cess other than stamping will be
necessary to extract the values from
the r the plant will be ordered and
be in operation not later than Jauu.

 MAKES MANY INCREASES

Montgomery, February 24.-(Special.)- The state assessment board has finished the making up of the assessments of the railroads, telegraph and long distance telephone lines in the state.

WRESTLING MATCH
 FOR ATHLETIC CLUB
PROF. DIVER AND JACK MONROE WILL WHISTLE NEXT TUES THREE FALLS.

A contract has been signed for Pro- lessor Dwyer. the famous wrestler and exponent of physical training. and Jack Monroe, the wrestler-boxer, for match next Tuesday at the Athletic club. It is needless to say that this will be one of the best exhibitions in athletics which was ever held in Birmingham. Besides being new to Birmingham audiences, these men are the best in the country, and their exhibition is therefore as fine as can be seen anywhere.
 The bout will be a mixed catch-as- catch-can and GrecoRoman. Both men are in excellent condition and the exhibi- ton will be one of the best they have ever given the public. Only Thursday night they met in Atlanta and Professor Dwyer won two of the three falls by using one of his powerful leg twists,
 As soon as he was defeated Monroe issued a challenge for a bout before the Birmingham Athletic club for the 18th, and 1t was accepted. The purse has been named and all conditions accepted. Mon roe will be in Birmingham Monday. He is training again for the occasion.
