per, and $50 in Gold.

W. G. Buckley, the superintend-
ent of the West Virginia Wyom-
ing Copper Mining Co., who was
in town this week, reports the op-
ening up in the shaft now being
sunk on D of the Little Giant
group of claims, of a very rich
four foot vein of ore at a depth of
go feet, in the shaft now being
sunk on that lead.
The vein dips at an angle of IS
or 70 degrees. The shaft is sunk
in order TO cut the lead at a depth
of 81 feet. The entire width of
the shaft is filled with ore matter,
but it is not yet known how wide
the vein may be. The rich streak
is four feet in thickness and assays
80 per cent. copper and $50 in
gold. When the 100 foot level is
reached they will run a cross cut
to the lead. This mine is proving
to be very rich in gold as we'll as
copper.
The West Virginia Wyoming
Copper Mining Co., was organized
by the parties who purchased the
claims from Fl. l.. Kuykendall, F.
E. Hunter, Jones and Woodruff
AT that time the group was known
as the Little Giant" group, and

W. 0 W. BALL
The Annual Celebration Given
by That Order Was q Social
and Financial Success.

The annual ball given by the
Sierra Madre Camp, No. BIT,
Woodmen of the World, which
took place in Jensen hall last
Thursday night was one of the
most successful events ever held
there. These annual balls are
looked forward to with interest by
all, for it is sure be a social event
of much consequence. Good mu-
sic, an excellent floor and a fine
supper is sure to be prominent
features of the evening.
The hall was, as usual, decorat-
ed especially by the Woodmen
for the occasion. A pine log, with
two crossed axes stuck upright in
it, was suspended in the center of
the hall, underneath which was
hung the motto, "Hew to the line,
let the chips fall where they may"
Red, white and blue bunting, or
namented with flags, we're the
decorations of ceiling and wall,
while the words, "Welcome,"
adorned either side of the hall.
Other and tasteful decorations and
designs filled in every available
space and made the hall a fairy
land of light and color.
The supwer was served on the
stage by the Women of Wood
craft. 1t is not necessary to COM
mend the ladies of that organiza-
ton for the very elegant and ap-
petizing spread which they set
forth that night. Every good
thing in the eatable line was there
and everyone sat down to tables
loaded with dainties.
The management committee con-
sisted of Frank White, Harry Kin
haid, c. s. Taylor, A. L. Norman,
Lon Reynolds and Burton A,
Lee. The floor managers were
Edgar Bailey and Burt Reynolds.
The best of order prevailed and
everyone present testities to a
most pleasant evening. The Wo-
men of Woodcraft realized nearly
800 from their supper, $50 was
taken in at the door and 800 at
the lemonade stand which goes to
show that it was a financial sue
less all round.

Reliable Analysis of
Ore Secured by
Manager
Combined Vaiues will Assre.
gate $l78.50 to the
Ten.

The real values of the ore in
the Charter Oak have never been
stated, because it was never &C
curately known. The ore has
been known to be rich, and as
says of samples taken from differ
ent parts have been very encour-
aging. The owners of the mine
have been satisfied with the out
look and have gone. on developing
and improving the property to a
point where ore can be taken out
for shipment.
But recently j. B. Hassett. the
manager of the mine, concluded
to have an analysis of the ores IN
order to determine their real val
ue. The result is an astonishing
showing of richness far greater
than the most sanguine stock
holder had hoped for. The fol-
lowing is a copy of the analysis:

Rocky Mountain Educator, a mag

cational interests and the affairs
of the great army of teachers,
which puts him in touch with a
large number of people of the ed
vocational class. The establish
ment of an educators settlement
in Saratoga, where the teachers of
the country would become proper
tv holders, build residences and
spend their summer vacation, will
c~eatainly give great impetus to
the growth of the town and help
to make it famous as a summer
