The following article from the Mo-

to the stockholders of the Nancy Lee
company in the Warren District
More than 100000 shares of the stock
are held in the district.
The Nancy Lee mining company is
getting its treasury IN shape to put
on big campaign of development of
is property, which is situate in Sc
cret Pass. The company has secured
the pooling of its promotion stock
amounting to 100000 shares, leaving
$4,000 shares in the treasury. The
promotion stock was given in ex-
change for property and the company
secured one of the finest groups of
mines in the district
The main vein of the Nancy Lee
shows on the surface for practically
the whole length of one claim and is
opened by adit tunnel for some dis
lance. The most northerly of these
openings has been carried in on the
vein a distance of 800 feet, 300, feet
of which distance il was in nav ore
The ore above the level was stopped,
returning values in arastras of $50 to
the ton. A Wine was sunk in the
ore so feet and the vein found to be
II IL feet, 5 1-2 feet of which carried
values of $16.50, while the pay vein
in the drift above was smaller and
carried approximately the same val
ues. 800 feet from the portal of this
adit drift a shaft was carried tn a
depth of 200 feet land drifts carried
off along the vein 30 feet to the north
and 20 feet south. This shaft swas
sunk between two ore shoots. it being
the intention to drift north, into the
main ore body that showed up SO
well in the level above The shaft is
equipped with hoist and is in shane
to begin active development at a mo
ment's notice. A compressor and
machine drills are to be put in and
the mine hereafter all work will be
carried on with better equipment.
over the hill to the south there is
another important outcrop of the bic
vein, where values as high as $50 pei

mine has been ignored, but the new
MANAGEMENT will carry development
into that quarter and see what car

property before steps are taken t
equip it with milling facilities. The

the south, while the Eclipse dixie, one
of the most important in that region
crosses the big vein farther north. i
