J. D. Tungate, Who Purchased Interest

staked Realizes. by
100000 Sale

Not often, even in Los Angeles, can an
investment of 500 be, enhanced in value
to the amount of $4,000 within year and
a half but such is the result in little
deal in mining stock made by ]. ID. Tun-'
gate a real estate broker of 400 Currier
building.
In the spring of 1905 Mr.. Tungate and
three or four of his business associates
grubstaked a prospector to locate cop
per mine in the foothills OF San Bernar-
dino county. In charge of the prospect
ing outfit was a dentist, DR.. Stephen A.
Croft, who was In poor health ana neeueu

| n After several months work the pros
lpectors returned with the papers Of a
claim staked out and specimens of ore,
which the assayers said would pay re-
lfnunerative profit on the cost of installing
| the apparatus necessary to work the
mine A company was formed and prep
arations made to get out the ore, but lit
igation prevented the consummation of
the plans
DR.. Croft was given one-fourth inter-
est in the concern for his work in the
prospecting party and when the case was
taken into the courts he threw aside his
stock certificates and resumed the prac-
tice of his profession.
Later he offered his share of the stock
to Mr.. Tungate at the latter's own price.
Mr.. Tungate refused at first to purchase
the stock, saying he had as much of
it as he cared for. Croft grew insistent,
and finally offered the stock for $40, at
the same time threatening to sell it to
some outsider if Tungate would not
buy 1t.
He reluctantly consented and impatient

to get his money back. A few days ago
the mine and machinery were sold for
100000 making the portion of the stock
sold by the doctor worth but little less
than S25, 1000.
"Of course we knew the stock would
be worth something some day. for the
ore was there, but we did not expect to
realize so handsomely in so short a
time" said Mr.. Tungate in talking of the
deal.
DR.. Croft is at present practicing in
Fresno and as yet is unacquainted with
the result of his untimely sale. The mine
is located about five miles from the
town of Crackerjack and twenty-five
miles from a railroad.
