PAVLAK LOOKS GOOD.
Sidney Coburn Tells of Work Done On
the Property.

Supt Coburn of the Jarbidge-Pavlak
Mining company, arrived in Twin Falls
Monday morning, June 18th, from Jar
bidge, and reports as follows:
"Mr. Jack Griffin has discovered
new ledge on his lease which proves to
be four feet in width and widens as 1t
goes down. The full face of the tun-
mel is in ore with an average assay
value of $14.03.
& a@Messrs. j. Curley and Charles "A.
Madison, Goldfield operators, have
taken over the lease held by Speaker
Bros. and G. A. Graham and will Or
ganize company on the two leases.
They are amply supplied with m )ney
and their development will progress
rapidly.
THE strikes on the Four M lease
continue to increase in width and
values. 1t was first reported to aver
age $500 per ton, but ore now being
sacked runs from $500 to $11, 900 per
ton. Mr.. ]. j. Dice of Twin Falls,
who was recently at Jarbidge, places
what he calls conservative estimate
on this entire feet 5 inches of at
$4,000 per ton. They now have lao
sacks ready for shipment.
DIR Boyland is working in full
| face of ore panning and aGsaying be-
yond expectations.
| Mr.. Parks two leases are under de-
velopment with full force of men.
Work on the Pavlak tunnel is be-
| ing rushed with ell possible speed. It
| is now in distance of 130 feet Rich
stringers are encountered from time
to time and the Taft ledge will be en-
countered at an early date
| AS a result of the rich strikes made
on the Pavlak properties both in the
company's tunnel and by the various
lessees, the bond held by the Jarbidge-
Pavlak Mining company for $4,000
has been taken over and payment in
| full has been made one year in ad-
vance of the time specified by the op-
ton. Their action in taking over this
/ bond in advance of the payments was
something unusual but evidently. JUS
titled by the remarkable discoveries OF
ore bodies containing both value and
quantity and which gives both stabil-
| ity and increased value to their stock.
/ 1t is not expected that the company
will ship even high grade ore very
long, as the management is already
preparing to install mill on Jarbidge
creek near the mouth of their tunnel
where they have ideal conditions for
mining and milling purposes.
i Mr.. Coburn brought In three sacks
of ore ranging from $4,000 to $4,000
per ton. This ore is in the office OF
Brunn, Kinney & Company, and every
one is invited to call and examine
