The Manhattan Wonder Gold Mining Company owns one of the biggest
gold mining properties in all Manhattan. The ground covers IFS acres.
There are two groups Of claims. One consists OF the Prairie Dog,
Black Warrior Lode and the Tom Thumb Fraction, and the other COM
prses the Thos Davis, the Tom Moore, the Danny DriscolI and The Mangon.
The Thos. Davis group, OF so acres, lies midway between the Seyer-
Humphrey and the Consolidated, both sensational shippers OF high grade
The Prairie Dog group, OF As acres, lies contiguous to several Of the
greatest properties on Manhattans word-beating producer, Gold Hill.
Both groups are surrounded by great gold mines and great gold mine
prospects, and through them big lodges of gold-beanng rock have been
traced. Assays Of $50 per ton and upwards have been had from a dozen
places on the surface.
Development work has just been begun, and it Is expected that within
90 days several great gold mines will have been disclosed on the company's
immense property.
The company is already deriving an income from the water supply
on its claims. Water has been developed at rs feet and is supplying Man
haitian with all its needs.
= Low Price of Stock.
Considering its prospects, Manhattan Wonder is one OF the BEST
BUYS IN MANHATTAN at the price, 20 cents per share.
The time to buy the stock is before the great ore body is opened up.
When that happens, the stock will soar to par.
Manhattan has been under development less than three months, yet
all Of its mertorious stocks have advanced from so to 300 per cent. over
the price the treasury stock were sold at. Manhattan Wonder may be ex.
pected to repeat this performance promptly.
Subscriptions should be forwarded at once to either of the fiscal agents.
The right is reserved to advance the price Of the shares without notice.
