OCTAVE STRIKE IS PROVING TO
 BE BIG.
From wednesday.s Dnllyl

Recent developments in the Octave mine prove, Co my mind. that deep mining will snow Yavapai county, par. ticularly the Weaver district, among the richest gold mining sections of the west" said Dr. O. L. Gcer of Congress Junction to a JournalM Miner represen- tative last evening.
 "The Octave strike IS perhaps the most important made in the Weaver range in many years. IL was encoun. tered l,600 feet under the surface in a vein never known to exist It is now proven to extend three hundred feet along the ledge, averaging four feet in thickness. It will be opened by raises, later, as well as proven from the lower levels. II has already produced thou. sands of dollars and, located in any other section of the west, would cause greatest excitement.
 "octave camp was never as prosper ous as now, " he continued. "The futur, of the mine IS brighter than ever in it' history. The stockholders are elamor ing to increase their holdings in tho concern, since the recent rich discov cries on the l,6OO.foot level. and on tho 100 foot level of the Joker vein where another body of gold ore, almos
 equally as promising as tne first find
 was uncovered short time ago, a ful
 account of which appeared at the tim
 in the Journal Miner.
 "Since the Octave strikes, the man |, agement of several other eompanie , operating in the district have been n' 7 gotiating with view of equippin their properties with heavy hoistin machinery and opening their holding to great depths.
 - "Tne outlook is that the district I on the eve of mining boom, eve - greater than the one following the di c covery of the rich plaeers on the sur |. init of Rich hill, from which SO mu'
 placer gold was mined in the ear '- days" he continued.
