AN IMPORTANT
 STRIKE MADE
 INC0PPERCH|EF
Paradise Record.)

An important stllhe, WHICH loohe better day by day. was made this week on the Comanche Chief. a claim belonging to Capt. Jonn A. Dun can of St. Joseph, Mo.
 At depth of about 100 rect there is full face of lead carbonate ore which will evidently pay to ship. That first taken out was white. car rying very high values in lead, but the ore is now either red or reddish yellow all of the time, iron taking the place of some of the lead. All of it, however, will no doubt warrant shipment.
 And the beauty of it is that the ore is soft enough to be mined without , shooting-with a pick miner can easily take down a ton or ore a day. Ore appears between a hanging wall of porphyry and a foot wall of conglomerate. The gangue (what gangue there is, the vein being al. most solid ore) is lime.
 The next day after ore was strucl; the vein was 1-2 feet wide: on the. second day it was feet in width. and on the third day the full face of the drift was in ore. with the vein still 1 increasing in width. as its direction and the walls plainly show. The ore was struck fin drift from a 15G-foot crosscut at 120 feet in. The crosscut is driven towards the south. east, and the vein, which has almost the same direction as the drift. has a northwest-southeast trend, with an inclination to the north at present To straighten the drift and so facil. itate the work of following the ore in it's slight deviation northward. the miners dropped back a few feet to shoot out that side. When the drift is thus straightened to accommodate the new direction, the vein will then be followed. continuing the drift Al present the drift is about B feet ir | length.
 The Comanche Chief claim is sit uated about two ana one-half miles southwest of town. The Duncan group. to which it belongs. adjoins the San Simon Copper company: property.
 | Railroad Exchange. Jack Cross and Jack Buford have secured lease for one year. with 2 right to buy. on T. E. Wilson's one half interest in the Railroad Ex change, a claiu that adjoins the Blu ford group.
 | The contract calls for 50 feet O shaft work, most of which will b, done ia the 15-foot shaft It is in tended to make shipments Of lead silver ere to the Fl Paso shelter. There is a very good showing il this shaft, which is sunk on prom ising ledge that can be traced iron one end of the property to the other Several hundred pounds of rich orr was taken out of the shaft. and ther, are several tons of concentrating orr on the various dumps. The forma tions are garnet. lime and porphyry the latter constituting an excellen wall on which to sink in the shaf mentioned.
 The other one-half interest in thu lproperty is owned by Jack Cross.
 The purchasers, who are both ex perienced miners. will themselve sink th eshaft, work on which has al ready been commenced.
