sas The old Silver Moon mine,

across the Arkansas line in Missouri,

mill, will be erected as soon as it can
be shipped from Joplin, The Red
Buck, in the same locality is being

ing or purchase,
The 100 acres of the Merritt land

Reports from the great lead strike
made by N, b. Whiteley and Ike Xii
gore at their mine near Ponca City
few weeks ago indicate that the
discovery there is even greater than
first told Already the men, work
ing alone with nothing but hand
tools, have taken out $4,000
pounds Of pure lead ore, and much
of the time recently has been spent
in driving a tunnel from the hillside
below their mine in order to reach
the shaft at the bottom so that it
may be drained, This work has
been largely waste, although the
miners are getting into the lead
again in the drift, which they have
ruu to a distance of 40 feet, They
have yet 80 feet to drift before they
strike the shaft and they think they
will run in lead ore all the way,
Their shaft is now 35 feet and it is
still in ore, These men slow trailed
the float lead on the surface up the
hill for more than 100 yards before
they decided on the place for the
digging of the shaft, They picked
out 5000 pounds OF lead while trail
ing the float, When work is being
done in the shaft, the average days
output is POO pounds,
