Mojave Strike Attracts
 World Wide Interest

the great gold strike in the Mo- Jave desert region of California reveals details that will inter- est local miners, some of whom have prospected in the region
 in which it was made. Briefly stated, the story of the great discovery is as follows:
 The mine, known as the Sil- yer Queen, was first located in September, 1883, by George
 Holmes,a college student inter- ested in mining, following his discovery of gold-bearing float on the slopes of a hill about 7 miles from the town of Mojave.
 Aided by two friends, Min nard and Dew, Holmes started opencutting in the overlying dirt along the hillisde above where he had found the float and by lucky chance encount- cred the ledge at a depth of 6 feet. Holmes gave to each of his companions a 20 per cent. interest in the find. Minnard later sold his interest for $500. Shortly after, Dew also sold his share for $1,0O0. The pur- chaser in both instances was Cy. Townsend, former justice of the peace at Mojave. They thus tossed away fortunes of $7O0,000 apiece, figured on the basis of 40 per cent of the $3,250,000 option taken during the past summer by a South African mining company.
 Up to this time the news of the rich find was kept virtually a secret, although ore ship ments were started last spring. Values at the shelter ranged a little better than $50 a ton.
 Finally syndicate offered Holmes $10,000 for his 60 per cent interest. The offer was re- fused. Succeeding offers of S75,000, S250,OOO, S3O0,O00 and S750,000 were also reject ed. By this time news of the rich ore had been carried far and wide and company repre- sentatives and engineers from allover the world were hurry ing to the scene. Among them were several representatives | of the South African company, who offered to option the prop erty for the huge sum of $3,- 
 It is said that during the past { eight months the mine has shipped S200,oOO worth of gold to the shelter and is now employing around 100 men.
 The ledge is said to show l. 900 feet of continuous ore run- hing $50 to $40 and over a ton. The ore body is from 15 to 50 feet wide and has a known depth of $50 feet and the bot tom has not been reached. In the opinion off mining men it is Il the greatest strike since Tono- no h
