Charles Czech, a prominent citi-
zen, of Harrison. is in the city for
few days, a guest of S. H. Britts.
MIR. Czech is successful miller, and
also mineral land dealer, having re-
Gently sold a developed mine for
100000, and has several more
as good on his hands.-Eureka
Times,
1t is estimated that the dump of
the North Star mine three miles be-
low Harrison, contains at least one
hundred tons of free zine ore; at the
current price of SEQ per ton, this is
certainly worth looking after. A To-
cal miner figures that the ore laying
around prospect holes, in Boone coun-
ty alone, would bring $4,000 i'll
marketed to-day.
With zinc selling at SOS ton in
the market, there remains no reason
especially with the prospect of hav-
ing The White river road completed |
by Aug LIST, why Baxter county min
ers and prospeetors should delay the
development Of this rich mineral field |
any longer. There are quite num-
Der of prospects that could be devel-
oped to make producers. Baxter

Prof. X D'Ailley was summoned to
Memphis Wednesday to resume oper
ations on government works near
thatcity. He was surprisedsto find
during his stay here dlat lnany
North Arkansas zinc propettieswhich |
he knows to be valuable from exam
nations made wears ago, are not
being developed, 1t is his idea that |
our mine owners should 60 to work |
in more modest way than most OF
them seem to wish; put in crushers
of small capacity and hand jigs first,
and prove their properties by mar
keting ores almost from the outset.
Having confidence in our ore depos-
its, Prof D'Ailley feels sure that such |
tests would yield us more credit and
less discomfort than the system
wherein stock in the corporation
rather than the ore is the principle
commodity marketed
