Manganese Strike.

E. S. Osborne and J. E. Beck have
made several manganese locations the
past couple Of weeks northeast of
Parker, which they believe will de-
velop into something worth while.
There is big demand for manganese
ores, and the high prices paid for the
ore offers great inducement to the
prospector to seek this character of
ore. There should be many small
bodies of this ore around Parker and
along the Colorado river. A little
prospecting for manganese is bound
to bring success to the prospector.
