 Interested In Claims.

Mining activity is very promising in the Hyder district this year, ac- cording to J. w. Benson. proprietor of the Senate Cigar Stand. who re- turned to Juneau Saturday night on
 the Admiral Watson. from Ketchi- kan. He has been in Hyder several days looking after ihs mining in- terests there.
 Three properties were bonded
 while Mir. Benson was at Hyder, he said. A property on the Salmon River and one on Bear River, in the Stewart district. were bonded to two New York syndicates and the third on Bear River, was bonded to a Vancouver company.
 Benson is interesting in the Vir-
 ginia Group, the owners of which are, besides himself, Mrs. Margaret
 Duff Bunting of Hyder, J. A. Hall, president of the Salmon River Trad ing Co.,. at Hyder, and Charles E..
 Finzel, proprietor of the Ketchikan

 The Virginia Group consists of four claims lying eleven miles up 1 the Salmon River Valley on Bound ery Creek and adjoins the Daly AL
 aska on the north and lies 5000 feet south of the Premier Gold Min ing Company property, in the same zone, Benson said
 -Four large leads are all striped and tunnel driven on one lead in which cross Assures have been en- countered Of good commercial ore,
 and other Assures carrying gold
 and silver" said Benson.
 ''The work has been in charge of William Bunting, one of the original
 locators of the Premier and the Northern Light properties, and
 which were both sold by Mr. Blunt ing to the Premier Gold Mining Co. MT. Bunting states the ore in the Virginia Group is of the same char
 acter and in exactly the same zone
 as that in the Premier, and the possibilities for development are practically as good.
 The Premier has towers on the Virginia Group, over which the ore is being shipped on a tramway to the company bunkers on tidewater. The wagon road to the Premier goes
 through the gorup and the possi-
 bility of tcwnsite is very prom ising from the location in which
