Amalgamated property at the present
time and have opened up a nice body
of ore in one of their .unnes. Ii Is
the intention of the company to con-
struet a mill as soon as weather con-
ditions will permit the beginning of
work. The mill will be of sufficient
capacity to handle custom ores as
well as all the ore they will extract
from their property. Owing to the
bad condition of the roads at the
present time, the gentlemen will not

stock will be kept in escrow by the
new owners. The price is said 10 be
$250,000, and 1t is understood that
this entire amount will be placed at
the disposal of the management to

that there will be an eastern market

traded in on the Boston and other
curb markets.

associates. including his mining ex-

last week of November. and spent
several days here About two weeks
ago Messrs. Clute and Harrington
left for Detroit TO conclude the deal

had passed his mark OF seventy-four
minutes, made last year.
Wilbur, however, seemed to think
that Orville might stay up as long as
he liked, and Orville went sailing on.
At times Orvil1e raised the machine
on his long circles. At the south end
of the field there is a smokestack Is
feet high. BY this people measured
his height. Some guessed 1t as 600 #.
and the conservatives ones said 400.
Wilbur, from the north end of the field
gagged it with his eye and piece OF
wood and said afterware iiiat he was
pretty nearly 800 feet from earth.
Orville had gone around the field
fifty-four times, making great speed,
sometimes, at a guess, as much as for
ty-five miles an hour, when suddenly
he left his regular course -nd started
to maneuver. His machine minded
him perfectly. The first intimation
that something new vas on was when
Orville, turning from rapid flight up
the east side of the field, cut off from
the northeast corner toward the sout1
west more sharply than usual. At the
far southwest corner he turned to the
left, then across the south end Of the

made another sharp turn. He came

Shortly after o'clock the report

official figures were received. The
news spread and the waiting crowd
kept its ears alive for the .nournful
strains for the old darby melody.
