GOLD STRIKE NEAR
BOSTON MEN FIND BONANZA VEIN
BENSON IS RICH ONE

Benson, Ariz, Oct Gold has been
discovered in the little Rincon noun
tains, IA miles northwest of Benson,
by the MassoletH Mines company. a
company Of Boston men. For several
months past it has been known that
this company was doing extensive de-
velopment work in this vicinity, but
little was known of the values they
had.
Today the mine was visited by well
known mining men who state that the
prospect has developed into one of the
richest mines in Arizona. The Mas
soletti Mines Co. has a shaft 100 feet
deep on a vein of ore averaging seven
to II feet in width and from $40 to
1900 per ton in free milling gold.
They have a so ton mill now in the
course of erection, which will be
ready to operate within 80 days. The

The Formerly Despised Ore
Proves Bonanza, Where
Formerly Was Handicap.

No other lead and silver district in
the southwest has better productive
record than the Cooks Peak mining dis
trfct. which is about IS miles north Of
Deming, New Mexico, and about the
same distance west Of Lake Valley. It
is now repeating the experience Of
LeadVille. Colorado, in the opening up
and shipment of large bodies OF zinc
ore which bids fair TO reipstate its old
time prosperity. Ali at one it has been
found that the formerly despised metal
can be used in manufacturing paints,
in coating iron, in cyanldlng ana IN
electrical plants anu in dozen ways
once not thought of, and that there is a
great demand for it by the eastern zine
smelJers. Cooks Peak and the country
north of it has zinc ore in abundance

The Old FL Paso aiine.
The old El Paso mine has large
tonnage OF zinc, both in the mine and
on the dumps. W. F. Gordon, travelling
ore buyer of the Cranky Mining and
Milling company, has contracted for the
entire tonnage, and expects to ship
seven OF eight carloads per month
The Othello and Desdemona mines
have also contracted to ship about
20 600 tons of mixed sulphides of zinc
and lead GRE The Poe interests have
also begun operations

During succeeding years there was much
activity, and the rich oxidized leaders

IF your boy shows indifference TO
