almost without saying they have Sc

was in Goldfield the other day and
exhibited a number of specimens
from the lodges which they are work

J. ]. Griffith and Val Hush re-
turned last night from a trip to Ube-
hebe where they went on business
and to look over new strike that
has been recently made. says the
Goldfield Tribune. The strike is on

stringers of sulphide ore are detect

lieved some good ore will be secured.
The tunnel when completed will be
1.129 feet in length and will tap the
ledge on the King claim at a depth
of about 500 feet.

with a sufficient force in the mine to
keep the mill supplied with ore and
further the development of the ore
bodies. The Mohawk is breaking no
ore for market but is engaged in ex-
tensive development, opening up the
ore bodies on the lower levels and
sinking the main shaft. The high
grade taken out in the course of de-
velopment work will be stored, the
company believing 1t will make good

mill is being pushed with all speed.
