RICH CRIPPLE HILL ORE|
DISTRICT THOUGHT BARREN Is
HIGHLY MINERALIZED.
Discovery In Molly kathlee on Tender
foot Hill Is Reported to Be Best
Made in Years.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Cripple Creek, Colo.-After a quest
of quarter of century, prospectors
have tapped the locks of the treasure
valuts of Tenderfoot hill, which is the
scene of two of the most important
gold strikes ever made in this dis
trict. A find is now reported in the
Molly Kathleen, and two new mines
have been added to the list Of pro-
ducers that are expected to rival the
famous properties of the Bull Hill
section.
Following the announcement that a
massive ore body had been opened in
the gold quarry" the name given to
the Johnson Mack lease on the Ella
W. property, the news flashed over
running several dollars a pound In the
Molly kathleen.
Both of these properties are situ-
ated on Tenderfoot hill, and the same
mineral vein is believed to cut both
claims. Mining men assert that these
discoveries are of more significance
than the recent rich strike made at
/ 1900 feet in the Cresson mines.
Flaring out over the surface Of the
Ella w. claim like gigantic cap
sheaf, the ore body was found at
grass roots. Shipments sent to a To-
cal sampler have brought returns OF
500 gold a ton.
The gold quarry" is now about the
size of an ordinary living room, and
the ore is taken out in large blocks.
The extent of the ore shoot in the
Ella w. claim has not been deter
mined.
Samples taken at the Ella w. indi-
cate that the ore shoot will cover at
least an acre of ground. The ore is
being mined in the same manner that
rock for building purposes is taken
from a stone quarry.
The vein of high grade ore discov.
cred in the Molly. Kathleen is twenty.
eight inches wide. and the rock CON
tains free gold and sylvanite. This
ore shoot was encountered at a depth
OF 700 feet.
Tenderfoot hill was formerly regard
ed as out of the mineral belt and con
demned as barren territory. Since the
new strikes we're made on this hill
prospectors have been flocking there
in an attempt to trace the veins Of
the Molly Kathleen and the Ella W.

WHERE THE INCHES COUNTED
British statesman's Remarkably Neat
Retort to chalrman's Shaft
Of "Wtt."

Lloyd-George's wit on the platform
Is we'll known, but here is one Of the
neatest retorts he ever made.
He was addressing meeting in
South Wales. according to Pearson's
Weekly. when the chairman. thinking
to be witty at the chancellor's expense.
remarked to the audience that he was
a little disappointed in Lloyd-George's
appearance.
II had heard 60 much about Mr.
Lloyd-George," he said. that / nat
urally expected to meet big man in
every sense; but, as you can see for
yourselves, he Is very small In stat
ure."
Many an orator would have been
grievously upset by such an unfortu-
nate beginning to the proceedings. but
not so Lloyd-George.
II am grieved to find." he said, with
mock seriousness, that your chairman
is disappointed in my size. but this is
owing to the way you have here of
measuring man. In North Wales we
measure a man from his chin up. but
you evidently measure him from his
chin down."
After that the chairman made no
more personal remarks.
