COPPER CLAIMS
 CHANCE HANDS
WYLsON-LITTLE MINE BONDED
Promising Latoucle Island Claims are to be taken Over by H. w. Vance-Is Backed by Big Eastern Capitalists.

One of the largest copper deals which has been made in this section for some years, is about to be con- summated. All the papers in the case have been drawn up, and only await the signatures of the parties interest ed.
 The property involved is the Will son-Little copper property, situated at Wilson, bay. Latouche island. and it is considered one of the most promising properties in the sound. H. w. Vance, the we'll known mining man, is to take over the property, for consideration that is not made pub lie. MT. Vance is backed by large New York capital, and in the event the deal goes through will immediat ely proceed to put the property on a producing basis.
 The property consists of ten claims situated close to and adjoining the |3amous Beatson mine on the one side, and the iron mountain claims of the R. A. D. Co.,, on the other. A large amount of development work has already been done on the property, and a large ore body developed. Is is equipped with a complete electric light and power plant, and the neces- sary machinery for conducting min ing on a large scale.
 The property is owned by John Wilson and Joseph Little, who have been working on the claims for a number of years, and have fine showing.
 Mir. Vance and MT. Wilson left yesterday afternoon on the launch Elvira, owned by MT. Vance, to in- spect the property and secure the signature of Mr. Little to the trans fer papers
 The taking over of this property by MT. Vance means that another of the copper properties of the sound will soon be placed on the list of the producing mines, as he will proceed with the development work of the claims as speedily as possible.
