A Fine Grade of Tellurium Ore
Opened Up in This Mine; As
says at More Than 500 Per
Ton; Mine Closed for Twenty
Years Up to One Year Ago.

A fine streak of ore was opened
up on the fourth drift east of the
Fraction misc. in Upring yulcaH:.
this week. A sam pie taken from
the new strike showed assay val
ues of mere than 500 per ton.
The ore taken out and shipped
previous to the new high grade
just opened up assayed 8 S5 ounces
in gold and 1890 ounces in silver.
The DRIFT was driven five feet
further after the last shipment and
resulted in the opening of four
teen inch streak of such good
value.
The aseey of the high grade
sample showed it to be tellurium
ore. This type does not pan aud
consequently it is thot that the
older leassrs may have passed up
much pay dirt, as they depended
on the panning method to deter
mine the vslue of their ores. The
Fraction mine had not been worked
for more than twenty years untsl
operations were begun there lit

Notice

Parents who bring their children
80 the band concerts, must posi-
Mively see that they remain quiet
during the rendition of numbers.
At the last concert during the
band numbers great many people
could not hear the music on ac-
count of the romping and noise
made 10y small children. 1t is not
fair to the band or to the public
to have the entertainments spoiled
by lot of unappreciative children,
and this practice must be stopped.

a letter from Mrs. E. L. Evans
who, with her husband, left here
about year ago for the British
Isles. Thinking it might be Of
interest to her many friends here,
we are publishing the letter, which
was written from Gesail, Towyn,
under date cf July %:
Please discontinue our paper until we
send you our new address, as we are
travelling frosn place to place and will
not receive it. We have received the
paper quite regularly and have enjoyed
reading the news from home
Enclosed you will find a piece of po-
etry which perhaps you would like te
print, as it seems to US to be the truth
concerning our home town.
If you want to live in kind of town
Like the kind OF town you'd like
You needn't.slip your clothes in grip
And start on long, long hike.
You'll find what you left behind.
For there's nothing that's really new
It's knock at yourself when you knock
your town.
1t isn't yorr town; it's you.
Real towns are not made by nen afra1e
Lest somebody else gets ahead;
When everyb0dy works and nobody
shirka
You can raise a town from the dead.
And if while you make your personal
stake
Your neighbor can make one too
Your town will bs what you want to
see.
1t isn't your town. it's you.
We have enjoyed ous tour of the Brit
isia Isles very much, ard are looking
forward to the time for returning to our
home. Best regards to ali our friends.
