friendship and service are treasured
today in very many homes throughout

eloquent tongue; others been more

turned in case of storm and around

There it will be treated by new process in. vented by Charles T. Snedekor, who re gently made an expert examination of the properties. The ore was taken from the Leghorn and Bugler mines.
 When the carload reaches Kansas City, Burmeister will leave here for Milwaukee to see it treated by Snede- kor.
 Snedekor's report to the management of the mine is fiattering. He found n large tonnage of ore blocked out anal ready for stoping and is of the opinion that his new mill is adapted to the eco homie treatment of the ores of the sev. enteen claims comprising the group.
 Burmeister and his associates on the board of directors of the company have under consideration the installation of mills at the Leghorn and Bugler mines. Several tests will be made to decide the character of plant best suited to the economic treatment of the ores.
 Operations of the company are now confined to the annual assessment work on the claims, pending the decision of the directorate on the mills to be in- stalled.
