CHAS. KITZNIILLER OWNS
A FAMOUS NINE

Charles A. Kitzmiller, of Denver,
formerly of this city, left for his
home last night. after spending some
days in Grand Junction.
Very few know that Mr.. Kitzmil-
Ter has become the owner of one OF
the most famous of the Wyoming min
es. 1t is the Bur mine near Lewis
town and its former owner took over
100000 from the mine and little
development work was done to Sc
cure that amount.
The Wind River Mountaineer, of
Lander, and The Cheyenne Daily
Leader, give extensive accounts of
the prominence of the mine and the
values that have been taken from it.
In one small sack of the ore that was
sent by the foreman of the mine to
Mr.. Kitzmiller. at Denver, weighing
approximately $50 pounds, Mr.. Kitz-
miller took $4,000 in gold. Some
of the ore runs as high as $4,000 to
the ton.
Considerable development work is
to be done on the mine this summer
and fall. 1t was formerly 135 miles
from a railroad, but is now only
short distance and this is the reason
that so little work has been done on
the mine heretofore.
The many friends of Charles Kitz-
miller in this city, who know what
a hustler he is, believe that If the
mine is what all the people of Wyom-
ing believe it is that he will get out
of it all there is in it. as he is great
hustler.
