"Trixie" and Jack" were taken out
about 8 o'clock last night by Patrol

teen minutes later the two dogs were
put on the trail and turned loose, the
spectators following in a buggy. The
dogs carried the trail up Virginia

WILL START SHIPPING
FROM ROYAL FLUSH

James T. Williams, owner of the
Royal Flush group at Gold Noun
tain, is in a fair way to become a
bonanza king from the strike he
made on that property about a
month ago. At junction of two
veins the ore in the drift has wild
ened to several feet and the values
have increased to such an extent
that it is believed the ore will run
$500 to $4O0 per ton in gold, sill
yer and copper
A couple of carloads of ore have
been taken out during the past two
or three weeks and teams have now
been engaged to haul the ore to the
railway station at Bonnie Clare for
shipment to market. The discovery
is said to be improving rapidly with
development and is causing consid-
erable stir around Gold Mountain
| district, which has just been given
another thrill by the rich strike
made by Mike Drum on the Keene
Wonder claim, owned by himself
and Harry Keene.
