Work Commences on the
Ocean Wave Group at
HorTmOsa.

Mr.. John KAISER, general man.
ager of the Ocean Wave mining
company, returned from El Paso
last Friday. he was accom- panied
to Hillsboro by Mr.. Harold G..
Willard, of New York City. Mr..
Willard is one OF the directors of
the New York Evening Post, one
Of the oldest publications IN this
country; he is also president Of
the Ocean Wave Mining company
operating at Hermosa, and presi-
dent of the Ready Pay Reduction
company operating IL this camp.
Mr.. Willard came from Mexico
here in which country be and
other New York capitalists have
an option on valuable mining pro-
perties. On Saturday Mr.. Willard,
accompanied by John KAISER,
County Treasurer j. C. Plemm mons
and Frank Fink, went to Hermosa
and inspected the newly acquired
mining properties, the Ocean
Wave gronp. Mr.. Willard re-
turned Sunday much pleased with
the mines, and Monday he inspect
ed the Ready Pay group of mines
which deeply impressed HIM as
being fully as promising as the
mines at Hermosa. The Ocean
Wave group consists of six
claims as follows: Ocean Wave,
Antelope, Panama, Island View,
Wedge and Keepsake. These
mines were located early in the
sos and for many years the two
first named were among the liber-
al producers of that old camp
whose mines were famous for
their output of high grade silver
ore. The principal value of the
ore taken from these mines is sill
yer with good gold, lead and cop-
per values. The company will
commence actual and active de-
velopment work at once with
Frank Fink, for three years fore
man for the Emplrs G. M. & M.
company, in charge of the work.
A force of ten men will be en-
ployed as starter and the mines,
which have been idle for q good
many years, will be put in work
ing condition as soon as possible. |
