maniac, with his clothing torn al
most to shreds, his teeth locked and
his eyes fixed in a CLASSY stare. He
fought his rescuers, who we're COM
PEELED to summon aid. BY the time
relief came Thomas was dead.
One of his companions, Miss Bertha
Hansel, was found unconscious and

fence.

Mr.. Simmackd islikes publicity, and
is a hard man to interview, but by
dint of close questioning and good
fellowship he was persuaded to tell
the essential facts about the great

he said. THE ore averages 20 per
cent. High grade samples run as
high 80 per cent. The deposit seems
to be enormous in extent. We have

four feet wide. More than a ton of
rich ore has been sacked while the
location work progresses. believe
there's a big body of ore below. |
also believe we are at the center of a
rich district, soon to be intensively
