EMPIRE NOTES
By Booster Brady

The Empire Com merciai AS
sociation held their regular meet
ing last Sunday evening and 1t
was very pleasing to see the large
number that was present. The
many questions that was debated
by the members shows that inter-
est lin the organization and our
home town is ever foremost IN
the minds of our good citizens.
The entertainment after the busi-
ness meeting was enjoyed by every
one present. The song by the
Rockwell Brothers could not be
SURPASSED These Boys have al
ways responded whenever they
have been called on by our en-
tertainment committee for a num-
Der aud are delightful entertainers
The song by Geraldine and Re-
citation by Myrtle Rockwell, de-
lighted the audience. 1t was a
good meeting and a pleasant eve
ming we'll spent.
William Krape. manager OF
the Grown Prince Consolidated
Company has let contract 10 AL
Rockwell to drive a raise from
the tunnel level of the Mint nine
to the surface AS SOON the raise
Is completed an electric hoist VIII
be installed, In the meantime
Mr.. Krape will drive the main
drift on the Mint vein ahead.
This property has been idle tor
some time. 1t changed hands
last fall and 1t is very gratifying
to see the new management OF
the mine go after the develop
ment In minerly manner. Inc
mine has been a good producer
of the precious metals for many
wears. The ore formerly shipped
from the mine assayed to II
ounces gold per ton carload lots.
There has been but very little de-
velopment done on the VEN ana
with good live manager ike Mr.
Krape, the mine will again be-
come one of the famous DIVIDEND
payers of the camp.
Messrs Willy, Scott and Cotton
who have lease and bond on the
Ready Cash mine, Williams Forks
reports that they have opened a
streak four inches wide OF sill
yer glance and ruby silver. They
have drifted on it for about thirty
feet and the streak still shows IN
the breast of the drift. Mining
men do we'll to turn their thoughts
t., the Empire district. 1t is one
of the oldest camps IN the state
and has produced millions OF dol
lars. Just keep tab On us this
year and watch our production.
If you want to invest in mines,
come and look us over. If, you
want pleasure or hospitality here
YOU will find it. Do you want
scenery? nuff said. Come to EN-
pire.
And now Empire is going to
have a mineral display at the post
Office building. The Mining Com
m,ttee consists of Charles Sund-

The Gem mines for many years
has been one of the prides OF this
mining section and as years pass
it becomes better and better. For
several years 1t has made a new
record for large shipments as we'll
greatly increased values in the
ore. Nor are these conditions
confined to any particular level
but it is uniform from near the
surface level clear down beneath
the level of the Newhouse tunnel.
There are twelve sets of leasers at
work IN the different levels in
which some fifty men are employed
With the exception of a couple of
sets OF leasers, who are doing de-
velopment work, all of them are
shipping. This week in the Mosh-
er ct al lease in the twelfth level
west a rich streak of sylvan;te was
urtered. 1t IS in the 2 feet of
ore on which they have been wor k
ing. The gold throughout the
streak is plainly visible to the
naked eye. In the Shaffer lease
in the 100 foot level east an 8 in.
streak of $1oo ore showed Up this
week in the two foot vein of ore
from which they have been ship

profitable grade of ore. And thus
are many surprises in the various
leases. The property surely has
