The Gertic Tin Mine May Resume.

There is a probability that the
Gertie Tin Mine at Hill City may
soon resume operations under the
directionI of e. G. Johnson. MIR.
Johnson, some time ago, gave an OPP
ton on the stock of the company to
a party Of Pennsylvania capitalists
and they have allowed the option to
expire without carrying out their
end of the proposed deal. He is now
anxious to secure control Of the prop
erty and is taking steps in that di-
rection.
The Gertie has been an actual pro-
Queer of tin. Last fall Mr.. Johnson
mined a quantity Of ore which he
put through a concentrating process
and had reduced in a small test

pose. His object was to demonstrate
that the mine could be made a pro.

brought there for shipment, while
last year there was less than 1,125,-
900 pounds. Wool from the ranges

The state marking board last week
began marking the papers sent in
from the recent examinations held

tions. Only eleven counties asked

Hanson, Lincoln, Pennington, Turner,
Union and Yankton. This special ex-
amiation was only in the counties
where it was requested. On the fif-

NOTABLE HAND AL CRIB.

Cribage is one of the oldest and
most interesting and exciting games
played between two individuals with
cards. -Four can play, but ii is essen
TALLY a two handed game and many
an hour is passed in social amuse-
ment, probably trailing after chees
for skill. Since the Brunswick bill
lard and pool parlors have opened
cribbage has become a favorite game
with many to pass few hours. There
are many thousands of different
hands. The largest that can be held is
20. The writer of this has played
and witnessed crib playing for thirty
odd years and never seen this hand
gave Mr. Jackson the jack of dia-
monds and three 5-spots Mr.. Jack
son cut the cards and Mr.. Cook turn
ed up the five of diamonds, giving
Mr.. Jackson the largest hand ever
held IN Durango or SO far as we
have heard. To commemorate the
honor Messrs Cooke q Leiner have
had the cards artistically painted on
q large sheet of card board, giving the
name of the winner and the date.
1t is well worth seeing and Mr.. Cooke
will take pleasure in showing the
painting and also the deck of catds.
Drop in at the Brunswick and maybe
you can duplicate the feat.
