From the standpoint of an observ-

of McCabe, who is in the city,
states the Little Jessie mine Of the
Chaparral Mining Co., is attracting
very much attention, and the ore
bodies exposed on Tie 300-level,
would indicate that early produc
ton as we'll as the grade of the ore,
will again in the near future bring
this old time properly into famed
rating.
Wade bases his opinion on the
ground that he has made an in
spectiOn of abe old workings clean
ed out during the past two months,
and the development given since
that time, which to practical man
is nothing more nor less than con-
elusive of the making of a producer.
"ln fact he says" the Jessie is for
the first time i'll many years in the
hands of practical mining men.

some Difference

The death OF w b. Wiswall. re-
corded elsewhere In this issue. calls
to mind the year 1886. when the
Board OF Trade of Longmont issued
an illustrated booklet. which was
printed at the Ledger office, and be-
cause OF his good taste IN such mat
ters, Mr.. Wiswall was given the over
sight of the book. The present mana
ger of the Ledger did the work with
his hands and feet. for We had no
power for our presses In those days.
Among the wood cuts which were
used to illustrate that booklet. and
the best one. was one OF the Farm
ers' Mil, not too large for a letter
head, and which cost the sum OF $35.
A better picture of the mill can now
be obtained by half-tone for $500.
The discovery or invention of the
photo process for half-tones has re-
volutioi.ized the printing OF pictures.
