Godfrey, two miners who have been working on a quartz ledge on tiie southern end of Butcher-Knife mountain since early last May , passed through town Monday aftornoon, with a aack of ore they intend to have assayed in Portland. Their summer's work is represented by a 40-foot tunnel into the Gold Standard claim, and a 30-foot shaft on the adjoin ing Florence claim, and they, have brought out ore from both. They have had assays of Gold Standard ore that went from $4.00 to $91.42 of gold, and a little silver, to the ton ; but those samples were not deemed to be so representative of the mine as the ore now brought out. Croppings from theFlorence yielded $2.06 to the ton, but it is expected the ore got under the surface will show up much better. Further operations on those claims will depend on the result of the assay of the ore now brought out. J. E. Meade and William Shrader are work ing on claims near the Gold Standard, And they have turned up considerable , native copper. Butcher-Knife mountain constitutes the tall and sharp divide between Copper and Ogle Creeks, both of which flows from the southward into the south fork of the Molalla. A Good School. Attention is called to an advertisement, in another column, of the Holmes English and Business College, of Portland, Oregon.

The school maintains six departments, namely : Three years course in English branches, a course in book-keeping, penmanship, shorthand, typewriting and telegraphy. The Holmes college is a Christian institution and has at heart not only the mental but the moral and the physical welfare of tho students intrusted to its care. The principal has given much thought to the home life of students and is able to provide safe and comfortable rooms at a low cost.
