Little Susitna to
Have Stamp Mil

William Bartholf is now in
stalling a stamp mill on the Lit
tie Susitna river for the Gold
Bullion Mining Company. A
small prospector's mill of two
stamps was installed last year
and cleaned up $4,000 from the
dump which had been taken out
by development work for a year
previously. The ore is high
grade and large deposit has
been uncovered.
The property was located three
years ago by Bartholf. He and
his brother Eugene Bartholf de-
veloped the ledge and interested
outside capital. The mine will
be worked on a large scale here
after. Other claims are be-
ing developed and it is be-
lieved by mining men interested
these that the Little Susitna dis
trict will be a great camp. The
Little Susitna flows into Knik
arm a short distance from the
big Susitna. Valdez Prospector.

Local issues were fairly strong

Boston Ely was again in the lime
light and many Of the local traders
took advantage of Mondays good
news and added to their holdings.
Not only are many of the local trad
ers increasing their holdings but
they are %cheerfully preparing to pay
their assessments long before De-
cember 23rd. Advices from the mine
were that the entire bottom of the
Emma shaft is in sulphide ore and
that there is not the slightest indi-
cation that this is the end of the
ore. Samples of the ore have been
assayed and show rich qualities of
a direct smelling nature. The SPLEEN
did reports from Boston Ely have
also served to add renewed interest
to local trading in general. One of

market yesterday was Ely Centen-

Leland Will Have General Outside

Frank M. Leland, who is here in

merly president of the Empire Cop
per company. He was also treasurer
and general manager. The company
had been a failure when Mr.. Leland
took it; in fact, he was sent on &C
count of his knowledge of machinery
to dismantle the works and sell them
for what they would bring. He told
the stockholders that he could make
a mine of the property, and they
laughed at him, but asked him how
much money he needed.
Mr.. Leland told them to put $4,000
in the bank, and that he might never
draw a cent of it. This was done
and he went to work. He produced
from the Empire $1,400,00O and
paid the stockholders over $500, 600
from the worthless" mine; and new
er drew a cent of the $4,000. After

electrician, and John Haley, a we'll
known mining engineer of Eureka,

ploitation Co. and will shortly leave

lied properties as they deem desir-
able and find open. In their travel
they will go through the wonderful
ly rich Yaqui country, recently OPEN
ed to prospectors through signing of
the declaration of peace with the In
dams, and now affording one of the
most attractive prospecting sections
in the world.
Mr.. Rogers was for several years
with the electrical department of the
Greene Cananea Copper Co. at Can
anea, Mexico, and is not only famil-
lar with the country bit also &C
quainted with it's laws and customs,
while speaking the language fiuently.
His associate in the enterprise, Mr..
Haley, has had wide experience in
mining and is well known through
out this state.
