NEWS FROM THE MINES AND MILLS
Rich Find in Wyoming.

Lusk, Wyo.-The tale of sheep
herder. heard by j. White Of Cripple
Creek, Colorado, IN British Columbia.
more than year ago, has resulted IL
Colorado Springs people getting in Oh
the ground floor on one OF the most
promising gold and copper strikes ever
made in Laramie county, Wyoming
On Muskrat creek, in the Rawhide
Buttes district, White, at a depth OF
thirty feet, has uncovered 2x10 foot
body Of ore which assays sixteen per
cent. copper and $98 in gold to the ton.
The Wyoming Gold & Copper Com
pany, of which M. Aronstein Of Colo
RADIO Springs, is president, has been
organized to develop the property.
White was employed as a miner
the Cripple Creek district at the tim
of the great strike and left Coloradi
because of 1t. He went to Britisl
Columbia, where he engaged in min
ing work. One day he met a cattle
man who had formerly herded sheer
in Wyoming.
The cattleman said that while herd
ing sheep in the Rawhide Buttes dis
trict In the northern part Of Larami,
county. Wyoming, he had frequentl,
seen indications of rich mineral an,
one outcropping on Muskrat creek. He
described the appearance Of this out
cropping and White, from past expe
rience, was able to identify the stun
as gray copper.
A year ago White recalled his con-
versation with the cattleman regard
ing the Muskrat creek section and de
cided to make prospecting tril
there. This he did and discovered tn,
outcropping to which the latter ha'i
referred. White sunk few feet o.
the ledge, and uncovered an ore bod 2
in place.
The prospector went to Colorado
Springs to interest capital in his find.
NJ. Aronstein took up the proposition.
and the organization Of the Wyoming
Gold & Copper Mining Company fol-
lowed. In the interest of this com
pany White located ten claims, OF
which the Morning Glory and the
North Star are proving the most val
liable. Three claims lie on the dis
covery lead. and on the Morning
Glory 1t is that the valuable ore body
has been uncovered at a depth of only
thirty feet.
Aronstein and White took into their
confidence friends in Colorado Springs.
WIFI tne result tHdt Iully uOZen men
from that city went to the Muskrat
creek country and staked out claims
adjacent to those of the Wyoming
Gold & Copper Mining Company After
these claims were recorded the news
of the strike was made public and
there was a rush of locators from
Lusk, Hartville. Sunrise and Guern.
sey.
So impressed are the people of Lusk
by the value of the discovery that the
town council has offered to build a
good wagon road from the mine to
the town and to erect ore bins here
provided the Wyoming Gold & Copper
Mining Company will freight its ore
to the Northwestern here. The town
council of Hartyille has made a simi.
lar proposition. with the understand.
ing that the output be freighted to the
Colorado & Wyoming at that place
The mine is almost equally distant
from each town. and the company has
not decided which offer 1t will &C.

A concentrating plant is to be erect.

AUTO SALES PASS $1,000, 900.
Second Days Deals at Chicago Exceed
the Mark Set.

Chicago, Feb. 6.-The second day OF
the automobile show has proved that
the most highly colored predictions OF
success have fallen short of the real
ity. The crowds that poured into the
Coliseum and First Regiment armory
during the day rapidly mounted up
into thousands and tens of thousands
until the 10000 mark was passed.
This is declared to be the greatest
single day attendance for any automo-
bile show ever held.
Signs We're not wanting to show that
the estimate of 100000 changing
hands over the days sales was far
from being an extravagant one and in
all probability would be found to be
too small sum. The enormous
amount of business which was trans
acted was not of course, confined to
private sales but resulted largely from
the fact that agents from all over the
country. representing the retail deal
ers, have f1ocked to Chicago to fill or
ders and arrange for consignments of
cars.
The men "who know are emphatic
in their declaration that the record of
100000 which was made last year
is bound to be broken this year and at
Leaf another million added to that
sum- bird's-eye view of the show
yesterday certainly served to confirm
that statement.

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
