Albro Mine Again
Strikes Big Ore

e The old Albro mine located on
Albro mountain near Dumont has
again come to the front as bo-
nanza, About three years ago
Mr.. O. H. Shaffer of this city and
Mr. Swanson of Dumont secured
a lease on this well known proper
ty and at once proceeded to de-
velop it below the old workings.
They have been working contin-
uously since that time with small
force of men and have had more
or less ore all the time but never
anything that would compare with
the body of ore now in sight.
Their strike is equal to if not bet
| ter than any ever made before on
the Albro vein and there have
been thousands of tons of good
ore taken out in the past twenty
years.
The ore bins and plats at the
mine are now filled with ore that
will return a value of better than
500 per ton, and as soon as the
snow blockade is raised and the
roads are in condition shipments
will begin.
Messrs. Shaffer and Swanson
are to be congratulated on their
success and they well deserve the
reward for their grit and perse-
verance. Their success is only
another illustration that goes to
saow what good judgement, hard
work and strict attention to busi-
ness will do in the mining line.
There are scores of other reliable
properties in the district that would
doubtless prove as good as the
Albro if worked and handled IN
the same economical business-like
manner.

returned last week from an ex-

ditions as prosperous throughout
the entire east and brings the good
news that he will at once resume
work on the Gum Tree mine at
Freeland.
The Gum Tree has long been
noted as one of the very best silver
and lead producers in the district
ard with the price of both metals
on the steady advance there can
be no reason why this old reliable
property should not rank among
the best paying mines in the
county.
