FIND COLD
GOLD PANNED FROM
GRAVEL OF ANCIENT
RIVER BED
The Colorado Mining s. Mill.
ing Company, S. II. Clam
mer, President, rejoices in
brilliant prospects.

Reports of the most encouraging nat
ure are coming from the workings of
the Northern Colorado Mining and Mill
ing Co., which is operating in Big Creek
Park in the northwestern part of North
Park. The work of driving tunnel to
strike the lead from which came all the
gold found on Independence mountain
is progressing rapidly, the contractors
having penetrated the mountain 22s feet
in the past two months, including so
foot open cut, through so feet of the
gravel bed of an ancient river. In the
gravel of this ancient stream gold rang
ing from four to thirteen colors, has
been found by panning with shovel, in
dicating 20 to 25 colors to the pan if the
proper tools for such work had been a.
vaiable: The tunnel is being driven to
cut the lead from which this gold has
been washed.
Mr.. William Scoville, one of the con-
taactors on the tunnel, is in the city this
week in conference with officers of the
company, and is very enthusiastic over
the prospect. The contractors got on
the ground the first week in October
and began work on the tunnel few
days later. In addition to driving 22S
feet of tunnel and tmbeing it all the way
they have gotten out and hauled to the
tunnel mouth timber enough to last them
till the snow goes off in the spring.
Mr.. Scoville is taking tools back with
him to make tests of the gravel they
have. On the showing made the price
of shares is rising and demand is quite
strong.
