JOSEPHINE CREEK.

A portion of the Gold King mine
Is leased for this season and four
men are working on it at present
The Anderson strike at the head
of Day Gulch is proving to be a
wonder. There is a rumor afloat
that they have uncovered a large
body Of rich ore and ground has been
taken up with prospect for a large
camp this winter.
Ed Daily is busy this week put
ting in his wheat and oats. The fine
rain Of the past week has given the
farmers the opportunity on the Him
ois valley and they all wear that glad
smile.
Gus Anderson has hauled the lum-
ber for the new fumes on his placer
mine which will run with large
force Of men this winter.
There are few placer claims on
thes creek to be leased yet, then we
would have boom camp and Jose
phine would be camp as of old.
1t is rumored that NJ. j. Anderson
has agreed to donate one hundred
and fifty dollars towards putting
bridge across the Josephine creek,
which would mean big boom to
men owning claims on the south side
and Il would give them a chance to
