Cripple Creek. Colo.-The late ship
ment from the Cresson mine 'vug"
or cave at the 1,2O0-foot level. made a
few days ago, is reported unofficially
to have milled to gross value of
about 100000 in gold.
The consignment was made In four
carload lots, two of sacked high grade
ore and two OF ore in bulk, from which
while carrying excellent average val
ues to the ton, not classed as strict
ly bonanza ore by comparison with
the sacked material.
1t is believed that the high grade
shipment returned not far from $780,
300 gross, and that the coarse ore
returned a total gross value OF about
s55, 900.
Since the great riches were encoun-
.ered In the Cresson, little more than
tour months ago. the total gross value
Of all the shipments which have been
made from the ore shoot in the cave
section is somewhere between $1,000
300 and s1,200.000 In gold. estimated
on information from semi-official
sources
The record of gold production dur
ing the last four months from the
Cresson bonanza shoot is the best that
mas ever been recorded within that
length of time from any gold mine on
the American continent. it is stated.
At the present time conditions for
still further heavy production from the
'vug' workings are reported to be
favorable.
1t is reported that the Queen Gold
Mining Company, formerly known as
the Ell Orc Company. which took over
a few months ago all the holdings of
the latter corporation on Battle noun
tain and adopted the former title. is
about to begin an active plan of de-
velopment which contemplates sink
ing the shaft an additional depth OF
125 feet or more and the extension of
one of the levels to a distance of about
400 feet. Considerable other explora-
tory work of an important character
is also planned.

Ono OF the fads of the hour. which
Is particularly strong with debu-
tantes and other youthful devotees OF
fashion, is the Cleopatra headband
This is very simple hair ornament
to be called after the wonderful queen
whose name is associated In our
minds with all things splendid and i'm
perial. 1t is made OF sparkling
rhinestones and binds the brow after
the manner of Egyptian and other
headdresses. And It is entirely sue
cessful
TWO patterns of this new hair orna-
ment are shown in the picture They
are among the prettiest of many de-
signs, all made in about the same
way. There is some variation in the
size of the rhinestones; the smaller
ones. used in the more elaborate fig
ures usually, represent more work in
making the band. and are therefore
more expensive. All the bands OF
brilliants are mounted on narrow vel.

The Elbert County tribune., 1915-04-30

For the woman or average means, a
separate coat. to he worn with frocks
OF varied character. is a necessity OF
the wardrobe. Such a coat needs to
be carefully selected. since it is TO do
duty as street coat. for travelling, for
driving In the auto. and for such occa-
sions as may demand a sport coat
But great numbers of separate coats
were designed this spring that are
suitable for all-round service. and have
much style to recommend them as
well.
Among them. coats of covert cloth
in tan and kindred shades and those
in black and white checks seem really
to fit in everywhere. They are full
OF style and snap; just the sort OF
garment that the American woman
needs and delights in.

Indications are that the total will
reach 10000 acres before planting
time. The acreage is already the
largest In the history of the industry.

been favorable to the sugar company,
