The Little GLADYS Mine

MIR. d. M. Erwin, manager of the Little
Gladys lining and Milling Company
at Mountain City, intends to begin a
more active campaign of development
work on that property than has hereto
fore been pursued. Aside from making
a shipper of the Little Gladys, he ex.
poets it to develop into mammoth
milling proposition.
Ore running as hign as $1,000 ton
in gold and silver was encountered in
the bottom of 7O-foot shaft in the
property, and tunnel is being run to
catch the rich vein at from 300 to 400
feet depth. The tunnel is being driven
through porphyry that itself averages
$3.50 ton in value. A dixie of the
mineralized porphyry 600 feet wide
runs through the property, and Mr.,
Erwin believes that as it is opened up
virtually the entire mountain will yield
good milling values.
1t is the intention, of course, to de-
velop first the ore of shipping grade,
placing the property on paying basis
in the shortest time possible, and then
to give attention to the milling pos
sibilities. 1t is Mr.. Ervin's idea, judg-
ing from developments so far, that it
will be susceptible of developing into a
big cyaniding proposition after the
order of that of the Consolidated Mercur
Gold Mines company.
In the portions of the east he visited,
Mr.. Erwin says money is plentiful. But
it is to a great extent being withheld
from the usual channels. For anything
in the way of large mineral PROPOSE
ton which can show actual results
money can be secured more easily than
ever before he declares.

There Is an editor in a little New

ness for gardening. Not long ago his
man of all work left him, and the
editor advertised for some one to fill
his place. Among the applicants for
the position was a man who seemed to
know his business thoroughly, but who
failed to produce references as to
character when requested. Moreover,
his eyes were somewhat shifty.
You say you have no references?"

There was a little good natured spar

Mr.. Munsey was on his feet at once.
81 don't believe now that even Bris-
banc coald have kept the Daily News

his recollection was that he had first
offered Brisbane $4,000 a year, then
had doubled the sum. There was q
lively dispute between the two over
circumstances upon which their recol-
lcctlons did not agree, Finally when
it was adjusted the magazine publisher
suddenly exclaimed. Anyway, l will
double the offer again if you will come
with me-"
Mr. Brisbane bowed his appreciation
Of what evidently was more than a
mere compliment, but explained that
he had just signed new contract with
William II. Hearst.
Mr.. Munsey is fifty-thrce and eXem-

fifty years of Europe than n cycle OF

learned telcgraphy as young man,
being placed in charge of the Western

possessed of the idea that he could
succeed as publisher, he started for
New York and there began the issue OF
the Argosy which last December cele-

up against obstacles which would have
completely discouraged men Of less de-
