GOLD BAR-The second crosscut
from the 150-foot level in tine Gold Bar
has exposed the ore body for 75 feet.
a good grade. The crosscut is IT'S feet
north of the long crosscut in which the
phenomenal ore body has been demon
strated. A prominent mining engineer
who has Just been through the large
mines of Bullfrog says: Il think the
Gold Bar is one of the biggest mines in
the camp. The stock at the present
price is a good buy, for ii ever a stock
was worth one dollar a share, Gold Bar
is the stock. The mine has developed
just as l expected. l first examined the
mine when it was fifty feet deep. To-
day. with a tremendous big body of
milling ore, there are places in the de-
posit from four to thirty feet wide
that can be sorted and shipped"
THE TRAMPs-Another big mining
deal was consummated Wednesday,
when T. L. eddie and associates took
up the bond on the Tramps. The pay
ments were not all due. but the balance
was paid, the payment Wednesday
amounting to approximately $4,000.

showing the average values of the mine,
which are in many places of a shipping
grade. This feature of the develop
ment is important inasmuch as hereto
fore the ore has been exposed lying al
most flat, and although the deposit has
been known to be extensive and the
values very satisfactory, the going
down of the ore is what the manage
ment hoped to see. The full shaft of
good ore following a well defined wall
almost vertical, gives the Happy Hooli-
gan additional standing in the list of
coming shippers.
GIBRALTAR-Sacking continues in
the three levels on No. 4 Gibraltar
ledge. There is no marked change in
the breast of either No. 2 or 8 tunnels,
except that in No. 3, the basalt, which
occupies about one-half of the breast,
is now showing blotches of free gold,
but on the average only milling values
are present in the basalt. Drifting on

looked for at any time. The values ex-
posed remain about the same,
DENvEE-Quite an important dis
coyery has been made about 10 feet east
of the mouth of Denver level No. 3, in
the opening of a ledge not previously
explored. Work was commenced there
yesterday, and after the first round of
shots big paintings were made, indicat-
ing an excellent grade of milling ore,
bordering onto the shipping grade
Enough surface work will be done to
determine the extent of the ledge, which
will be crosscut from the fourth level
at a later date. superintendent Darcy
thinks that the new find is a valuable
one.
