GOOD RETURNS
 FROM NEWSBOY

The rrtOrting of the anIalgam and the melting of the gold con- tained in the last cleanup from the Nrwsboy mill was completed last night. and today the assay gave returns of $i,,66 i.38. As there were 61O i-i ounces of the amalgan as against 6i7 last time when the cleanup went $i,7OO. it is evident the amalgam was not as dry as before.
 The last run of the mill was particularly pleasing io Manag- CT Golden, as it. was practically 100 per cent better. considering the length of tho run and the number of tons of ore nlilled.
 Thus, in the previous cleanup 225 tons of rock yielded si.7O0 and this lime itO 3-i tons gave returns of st,66i2s. The pre- viOua run showed values of S20.- 08 per ton and this time the re- turn was $ii.2O per ton.- Fair banks News Miner.
