' ' The above is a fac-simile of a check for two carloads (47 tons) of ore shipped by the lessees of the-Mohawlc gold mine, Gotdfield, Nevada,
to the Selby Smelting company, San Francisco, on January 21, the smelting: being concluded and the checks written on February 9, .the entire
..transaction, from the time the ore left the mines till the proceeds were handed to the operators, requiring but 20 days.
Speaking with the manager of the Butte Boys Consolidated "Mining company, on March 9, as they stood beside the shaft being sunk on one
"of the Butte Boys five claims, one of the lessees of the Mohawk used this language: 4
-"Your prospects are fully equal to ours whn our mine was at the same stage of development as yours; your ore is of the same character
. as ours, and I see no reason why your mine should not equal ours in all-respects. My" only criticism would be that you are selling your shares )
too cheap Your position is different from ours at the beginning. We had no criterion to go by in fixing values. No other mine in the neigh
borhood had been developed sufficiently to establish the quality of the' rock, and our only information as. to the richness of our claim was con

matical certainty, the productiveness of your ores, because they are as near like ours, almost, as two peas are like one another. YOUR SHOW
ING IS JUST AS GOOD AS OURS, and that is saying all that could be said of any mine on earth, before it actually had begun to ship its ores." '
; OUR STOCK NOW SELLS AT 10 CENTS PER SHARE THE MOHAWK AT $16 TO $19.50.
Mohawk first sold at 2lA cents; $150 worth of stock bought at 2yi cents and sold at $17 wcfuld net the investor $203,850,001 We predict that
when the Butte Boys becomes a shipper its aharea will be worth exactly as much as Mohawk. ,

EVEN THE GREAT IU0DAWK IS OUTCLASSED
- The Goldfield News, one of Nevada's brightest and most
reliable newspapers, of March 16, says; i; -
- "The Mohawk has heretofore been accounted the great-(
. est known gold mine in the world and the Combination Frac-'
' tion was a close second, but developments of the past week
have proven that the Florence Is easily head and shoulders
above either of them. A conservative sampling of the ledge
in the Little Florence lease yesterday, returned plenty of '
$60,000 ore. ' Four feet will return far. into the thousands and
' the remaining 18 feet of the ledge will ship better than $1,000
to the ton. The sulphides in the vein are rich, but the .free
gold is richer. It runs through the rock in every direction, ',
and not in narrow seams. It is a jewel casket in every sensej
.of -lhewor(L The first shipment-was-made-yesterday to the
local reduction works. It-consisted of five tons of specimen
rock, estimated to run $10,000.- There are 40 more tons ready
to send out, and . this shipment alone will be sufficient to de- -dare
a dividend on, while there has not been a single foot; of
. stoping done." - ' . . - , . ," '
We most certainly believe that within a very few months
similar mention will be made of the Butte Boys. Our develop
! ment work is proceeding day and night. It will not take long
for the contractors to reach pay rock. In fact, within two or''
thrice months our shaft; will have reached a depth that will,
likely show results the equal pf .anyot Qur-neighbors-It can '
"not, it seems, be otherwise. . 1

We mention the Mohawk because it is in the same district as
the Butte Boys Consolidated and for. the further reason that one of -the
operators declares that at the same stage of development our
showing is precisely as excellent as the Mohawk's was. He says
that our assays are the equal of the Mohawk's, and in some instances
a good deal better . ,' . ,

prediction that within six months the stream
of money now flowing from Portia ad to Oold

Ooldfleld produced $40,000,000 of gold last

writes la the Ooldfleld Newat
"My experience la camps for almost thirty
yeera gives mo no basis of eonrparleoa with
Ooldfleld. There le nothing like eoldfleld.
