in the year 1926 he was guest at the Ancrum
residence Mrs. Ancrum, the mother of Mrs Da-
wilson, being daughter of Colonel Washington.
Mrs. Davidson, then child six eight years

of his Country made, for 1t was only short time
afterward that he died at his country seat, Mount
Vernon.
Reference to Mount Vernon brings to mind
the fact that there is living in Washington today
an aged man named John Lane, who is the only
living person who ever saw George Washington.
Now, inasmuch the Father of his country died
Ill years ago, this may to be something
pretty close to false statement its face, but
1t is the truth nevertheless.
When John Lane was small boy the driver
of stage that ran between Washington and
Mount Vernon asked the lad If he wanted ride.

seat of honor by the driver. The boy made the
trip all the way to Mount Vernon and arrived

Col William Washington, a first cousin of George

Colorado.
The Lily mine at Garfield is to be ex-
tensively worked with three shifts. 1t
is considered one of the best copper
properties in that section.
The Golden Eagle at Salina made
recent shipment of which the first
class ore returned $4,167.24 per ton
and the second class $3.50 per ton.
Louisiana parties have been investi-
eating the possibilities for mill at
st. Elmo and have about decided that
the output would support a 20O-ton
mill the year round. 1t will probably
be built.
John Larsen and associates are
shipping two carloads of ore per week
from their lease on the Shafter at
Idaho Springs that runs $50 per ton.
The ore is taken out through the Cen
tral tunnel
Twenty-Five sets of lessees are now
operating on the properties of the
United Gold Mines company on Iron
clad and Bull hills, and total pro-
duction of approximately 500 tons a
week is being made.
The Honest John tunnel in the Idaho
Springs district, which was driven g.
900 feet and then allowed to lie idle
for two or three years, has again
started work and the bore will be ex-
tended at least another 1000 feet.
Arrangements have been made to
continue work all winter on the Car
Donate Queen, a well-known property
in the Ironton district Pat J. Foley
the owner, has bonded this property to
an eastern syndicate which will con-
duct an active campaign of operation.
An electric elevated road in Summit
county for the purpose of transporting
ores is projected by an eastern trans
portation company and arrangements
are said to have been completed for Its
construction. 1t will be twelve miles
long, from Keystone to Montezuma
and Argentine, and will cost 100000.
A winze sunk 23O feet below the l.
350-foot level of the Blue Bird shaft is
reported to have developed one of the
richest ore shoots opened up in the
Cripple Creek district at great depth
Sylvanite ore of great richness is ex-
posed and the mine samples are re-
ported to be running from ounces per
ton upward.
The new ore body, recently opened
in the lower workings of the Jerry
Johnson mine on lonclad hill, is re-
ported improving as development work
is carried on, and this enormous vein
is carrying an average Of $21.50 ton
to it's entire width. The ore body at
this time shows width of over twen-
ty-five feet and is exposed for dis
tance of eighty-two feet.
The deal for the properties Of the
Little Matte company at Idaho
Springs, which has been pending for
long time, has just been consum-
mated by a lease and bond on the
property for term of years to c. H.
Reno and associates. 1t is reported
that the consideration is 100000 with
a royalty of 25 per cent on all smelt-
ing ore and 16 per cent on mill dirt.
Heller and Richards, who recently
secured lease on the Mountain Goat
property on the western slope Of Bat
tie mountain, in the Cripple Creek
district, have made strike in
the lower workings of that claim and
will within few days begin breaking
down ore for shipment. The vein just
opened up shows width of three feet
and is carrying a small seam of high
grade sylvanite. 1t will average better
