Durand, officers from the federal

Durand's plea that he be allowed to
marry her first. She was unable to
secure bonds until the following day,

the Bullfrog Pioneer Mining and

making production of considerably
over 100000 per month. This is the

ore in two levels, four men abreast m

eighty feet that is pitching into the
shaft, and another ledge at 150-foot
depth that dips to the north at
pitch of As degrees. The company
has block of ground 750X300 feet,
and the lease has life of seventeen
months, and the prospects are all that
could be desired for becoming one of
the most lucrative leasing companies
ever organized in the district. The
cement foundations for both the COM
pressor and hoist have been complet-
ed The hoist has been placed in po-
sition and compressors to run two
