The workmen on the Deaver
lease, in charge of E. w. Hirst,
are in the lower water course,
and will reach the bottom of the
1l5 foot shaft this week where it
is claimed by all the old.timers
in the district are very rich de-
posits of solid jack. Next weeks
development ON this property
should bring about another big
boost for the Mansfield district.
In this shaft very rich ore was
struck at 10 feet, running down
the length of the shaft, and, with
additional ore at the bottom, the
Deaver will afford a splendid op-
portunity for those interested in
mineral production.
The Nebraska Mining & Mill

Pioneer mill and also just north

Undoubtedly by next spring the
development of the Mansfield
mining field will prove to the
most skeptical that we have the
jack-and the Mansfield district
will prove equal if not superior
to any ore.producing field in the
state of Missouri.
