WILSON'S PLA CER FROM
ROUND MT. COlGHIMATIoN

Captain A. Fl. Mayne. president of the
Round Mountain Combination mine, re-
turned from a visit to the property on
Monday. Captain Mayne says that
Thomas Wilson. who has a lease on the
companys Blue Jay No 2, has taken 65
sacks of ore from a 12-foot hole that
will average 1904 a ton. The ledge is
six feet across. There are two rich
streaks running down the shaft. one
standing about perpendicular and the
other having decided dip. Captain
Mayne thinks that with a little more
depth the two will come together and
form a good body of high grade ore.
