WALNUT GROVE IS EXCITED OVER
 RICH FIND
(From Tuesdays Daily

A4OAu LuCoud0 DdAAJ
 A. A. Moore, who arrived yester- day from Walnut Grove, stated that the Rattlesnake mine, situated about six miles from the old dam and on the south side of French Guleh, is attracting attention, since develop ment was resumed, and has all the ear-marks of making a bonanza mine. The main shaft has reached a depth of 65 feet, exposing an ore body IS inches wide, carrying a sulphide and oxidized ore that samples $9O in gold and S2 per cent in copper. The gold ore is free and will be treated in an arastra, while the sulphide will be shipped to the Humboldt shelter
 The hanging wall is of granite, and the footwall porphyry, with tale dis eernable on both walls. In surface development streaks of free gold were found, but with depth a well defined vein was developed showing these values. Many miners who have in- speeted the property speak in en- thusiastie terms of it, and say it is the greatest showing for it's depth, in the country. Cox and Brink of Walnut Grove are the owners.
