Professor Vigard claims a discovery

MINERS FIND VEIN
Of HIGH GRADE ORE
Development dives Prospect of Copper
In Paying Quantities Near
Superior

Recent developments at the mining
claims of William Whitmarsh and
Charles Johnson, on the north side OF
Cedar Creek holds out the hope that
paying ore, In merchantable quantity
will soon be uncovered, near superior
The Shepherd groups were located
by them about three years ago, and
much work has been done to bring
this property in. Considerable pros
pecting was first done TO determine
the lay of q we'll defined vein of cop
per lying but few inches below the
grass roots. The vein was tapped In
a number of places in order to deter
mine Its dips and angles and In each
instance It is holding out and has high
grade copper ore.
Then a tunnel was started near the
base of the mountain to tap the center
of the vein at a good depth. AT the
present time the tunnel is in about 240
feet and is nearing the point where the
vein should be cut according TO the
angle Of the ore at the outcropping.
Water and tale are gushing from the
front of the workings which the men
believe to be certain indication that
real ore Is near.
The location of the mine is ideal. An
easy truck grade is now opened to the
property, or could be opened with a
few days work 1t is down hill haul,
and seven loads a day could be de-
livered with a truck to the ore bins
of the railroad.
