EVENTFUL TRIP Of
LUCKY MINING MAN
James X. Davis Took Sample
From GOldfeId Mine Which
Cemented Deal.

When j. r. Jim Davis went over TO
the Diamondncld section about six weeks
uso, sampled the outcrop on the Great
Bend property, returned to Goldheld and
suggested to J z. Lotus that they two

pany stocE-a suggestion which was later
followed out-he made one OF the most
eventful trips in his mining career. saya

acreage was not producing. Today Davis
Is sacklng ore from three parallel veins
with the possibility OF opening up Il

The Great Bend leads all havo a strike

TO be worth SS23 per ton. Tho balance or
the ledge has value of about $40 per
ton
Large Tonnage Is Sacked.
The ledge has been stripped from sur
face to q depth Of about Eve feet, and as
the bags are loaded with their precious
cargo and piled up alongside the trench,
grass and mesquite brush roots can be
seen twined about the rock us though

ranging In gold value from $40 TO SI5 per
ton are stacked up near tho main work

leads. This rock is being mined In the
bottom of the Wine l2O feet from the col
lar of the shaft where the vein is showing
from two to elk feet In breadth. The
middle lead was the point Of first dlscov-
cry on the property. Davis found the
outcTop west of the shaft, sampled II,
made his report. and the acreage was
purchased. Former operators did about
1000 feet OF surface prospecting In tho
way of laterals and intersecting open
cuts and Scared the slope OF the nil
with a series of trenches, until the hill
side looks Ike the outpost OF a besleSed

Old Management Missed Ore,
The old management missed the ore by
the narrow margin of eighteen Inches,
became discouraged and quit the hill,
Then Davis came along with his pan and
canteen OF water and located the pay
crack He went down into the shallow
shaft which the discouraged ones had
sunk and discovered that the shoot took
pitch to the east Just above Its bottom.
He followed the ore and has never been
out OF IL since Twenty feet from this
shaft Davis located the third vein, from
which he is sacking ore having an aver
age grade of from $50 to Sl5o per ton.
