for some time to come. Furthermore.
James Reay, as general manager and
mine superintendent. practical min

for the place. The general opinion
here is that If there is a mine on the
property Mr. Reay will develop it, and
belief is quite generally entertained
that a mine is there.
OF course, it takes time to make
mine, and it must needs be a little
while yet before the Savage will be
fully developed as a continued dividend
payer. But conditions there now are
such that many people of the district
look upon the Savage as a property
fully capable Of redeeming the district,
on its own merits alone. There are
those who believe that universal rec

about by the Savage. Operations there

gresed to a depth Of about one foot
and a half when all of a sudden con
sternation took possession of the It'll
tie bunch of Mexican laborers and
they scattered to the four winds, the
boy remaining alone. Young Peaks
mind was taken up with a huge rat
tlesnake. A ella monster, fourteen
inches in length, had been uneaTthed
from their alternating quarters. The
two vicious reptiles had gone into
winter secIusion together and offered
a combined resistance to any encroach
upon their seclusion. The ella mon
stcr squirmed and Kissed while he
emitted poisonous fumes; his snake
ship was more active and measured
his full length from his coil in vain
attempt to reach his toTmentor; he
would stand erect as IL on his very
tails extremity and launch for the
intruder. The meanwhile young Peak
peited his snakeship with stones, fin
ally succeeding in directing a knock
out blow, after which the little hero
deity detached the twelve rattles OF
his vanquished adversary.

specimen in any zoo, so Wesley took
