lants have been in progress for the last
nine days.
Robert Carlthers of Table Grove,
Illinois, a brother of William Carlthers.
Instituted a contest against the widow,
alleging that a will written May 1.
1006, expressed the real intent of the
deceased in providing for the distribu
tion of his estate. The trial has beer.
replete with sensational features. Mrs.
Carlthers was accused of having mar
ried the deceased when he was so in
toxicated that he had to be supported
when the bans were pronounced. It
was also alleged that she had provided
him With liquor, which he drank until
his mind gave way, and that she then
caused him to be removed to a hospital,
where his friends were denied admis

Has Met With Unprecedented Success in Its Offering
of Original Stock at TLN CENTS PER SHARE,
THERE IS SENSE IN INVESTING IN A REALLY DEVELOPED GOLD MINE!
BRIEF HISTORY OF OUR PROPERTY
So man? persons write us asking for information concerning the Butte Boys Con
solidated Mining. Company's minea in Goldfield, Nevada, that we have thought that
perhaps the beat aa well aa the leaat expenaive, method of satiafying this craving ta
that which w here employ the columns of a daily newspaper. Another reaaon tor
our adopting this method is that we have no accrete know nothing we wish to hide
from the public and in answering thoae who write us we may appease the deaire or
others who would like to know, yet hesitate to ask for the information.
ITS EARLY DAYS
The Butte Boys property consists of five and a fraction claims, or 103 acres of
ground, in the Goldfield, Nevada district It was acquired last year from the Calla
han brothers, the discoverers, and the present management began its improvement
last spring. Its stock was first put upon the market nearly a year ago wo wc woi
of preparation lor development waa aimoai immeaiaiciy ucguu. swf
delays, always incident to such beginnings, development has been continuously car
ried on, until now we have a shaft more than 300 feet deep, with one crosscut of 145
feet. In this development our miners have passed through 46 feet of ore of varying
r.rVt in malr if immense v nrofltable even II millinK OD1T U1C
lowest gradea. We have had atringera that assayed $2,000 to the ton, but It would
be little short of criminal to hold out the impression that these were fair samples of
all our rock. Quite an extensive body was tested oy Mr. j. r. ownipiici,
mining engineer, that averaged in the neighborhood of $600 to $700 per ton, and we
look upon thia as adding in large measure to the value of the property. But of
to $50 ore we seem to have an almost unlimited supply, and it is from this product
that we expect our permanent and ever-increasing dividends.
LOW GRADE ORE THE BEST MINES
Among the difficult facts to fasten upon the human mind, eager for riches, and
dropping upon the gold mine as the surest avenue leading to the attainment of that
ambition, is that the low-grade ore gold mine is the one to tie to and the surest to
eventually satisfy the most avaricious nature. We have said that we have ore tirat
has tested $2,000, and as high even as $3,000 to the ton, and those statements are posi
tively true. But it is a provision of mineralogical nature that such bodies are ma'V
and there are seldom large deposits of even 4500 ore. But when we get down to $25.
$50. or even up to $100 rock, permanency may be looked for,' save that the bulk will
average beneath the $50 mill test or assay. Of this rock we believe we have all we
can mill for years, with the largest equipment we can secure, and that our stockholders
will have a permanent monthly harvest so long as they retain Butte Boys shares.
AN EXPERT MINER'S OPINION
Mr M D. Neer of St. Johns, a suburb of Portland, is an expert prospector and
miner He was for-, years with the Homestake gold mine in South Dakota, one of
the largest gold mines in the world. It operates a thousand stamps and has made
millions upon millions for its stockholders has made thousands immensely rich and
yet the general average of its ores, Mr. Neer declares, is but $2.55 to the ton of ore.
Everything is ore, however. There is not an ounce of waste rock. None is thrown
away Every pound taken out is run through the stamps and milled, because, like the
Butte Boys, it is free-milling rock. But we have had only one test running so low
as the Homestake, and we can say with the utmost confidence that our ore, 46 feet
of which we have passed through, will average more than $25. Mr. J. r . btampner,
as stated elsewhere in this advertisement, filled his ore sacks from our dump, picking
from a radius of 30 feet around, ore that had been emptied haphazard from our buckets,
and from this he got a mill average of $25.60 to the ton. This means that the gen
eral average of our ore is of three times the value of the Homestake. Ore of the cele
brated Treadwell mine in Alaska averages $3 or thereabouts to the ton. Seldom does,
any of it run above $4. But it is there in millions upon millions of tons, and who ever
hears of any of that mine's stock being offered on the market? Its hundreds of stamps
are pounding away day after day, and its profits pile up with exactly the same regu
larity It is pleasant to contemplate $2,000 or $3,000 ore, and we wish we had.a moun-
tain full of it; but the truth is there has not such a thing been found upon the face
of the earth, and it is not likely ever will be. The millionaires of California gleaned
their almost incalculable riches from the low-grade mines those tnat gave tnem 3
to $50 ore and we have a supply of this sufficient to keep our drills hot and picks
descending as long as most of us shall live. It is because the $25 to $50 to the ton
mine is invariably permanent that experts prefer its stock and buy it in preference to
those of the $500 to $2,00t) class: ... ' .. . , ,
The Mohawk of Goldfield is an exception to the average high-class gold producers,
its ores, it is said, averaging more than $100 to the ton, but Goldfield throughout is
an exceptional camp. It is the richest in the world, and the Mohawk, but one of its
chief mines, in the first 60 days of its operation, produced $6,000,000 in gold! For this
camp, however, the Mohawk's $100 average to the ton is not greatly out of proportion
to that expected from this region, Mr. Stampher, the noted mining engineer, declar
ing that "For the same amount of work done, the Butte Boys has a better showing
than the Mohawk had, and as good a showing, as anv mine in Goldfield." Carefully
reading the engineer's report on the Butte Boys, Mr. Neer declared that "It looks good
to me " His statement that he "found in both tunnels a number of ore 'stringers,' all
of which tended in a northeasterly and southwesterly direction, will be well under
stood by mine operators and miners of experience as one of the most favorable omens,
though not understood or realized by persons not acquainted with or versed in mineralogy-"
WHAT WE EXPECT AND WHY WE EXPECT IT
One correspondent asks: "What reason have you to expect genefous returns from
yU,This writer is a Willamette valley farmer, and perhaps would have no difficulty in
replying to our query if we, viewing his broad wheat fields of yellowing grain, and
cognizant of the prosperity of his neighbors, well knowing that by the richness of
their lands they increase in wealth, should propound to him the query: "What reason
have you to expect a generous harvest from your springtime sowing?" .
Doubtless he would in return ask if we were not looking out upon his ripening
fields of thrifty grain, and if they did not make silent answer to our interrogation.'
We therefore say to him that we began our seeding almost a year ago; that the
seed fell upon fertile soil; the ore is upon the dump; water will be our thresher, econ
omy our shibboleth, and that there is no more chance of our failure than of his al
most completely matured grain fields withering away beneath the melting guns and
being dissipated by the tempest that never corneal
We expect our ore to continue exactly what it bas proven itself to be by numer
ous mill tests as well as assays, and that it will grow, richer as we go down. We ex
pect it to have all the permanency of the most faithful low-grade mines, with the dif
ference that "low grade" in Goldfield means $25 to $100 to the ton, as distinct from
the low-grade mines of the Dakota or Alaska camps.
We expect large net returns from our mine, because we have the ore in tight to
: warrant such expectation, and that there is not another property of equal magnitude ,
in the United States more carefully handled or more intelligently worked; but above''
and beyond all other considerations is the fact that oura is free-milling ore, requiring .
neither cyanlding or smelting, and can therefore be treated at an expenae ef from $1 ;
to $3 per ton, including mining, thus saving to our stockholders from $10 to $15 per
ton as compared with the cyantding and smelting processes. If our correspondent will
some day gather together a ton of rock and survey its smallness, he wilt have tome
conception of the monumental saving in mining and treating an ore body we positively ,
know to exceed 46 feet In diameter, when the rock is of the free-milling duality. If
we shall eventually attain to the dimensions of the Homestake.' of itself this saving
will amount to $5,475,000 per annum, not to speak of the profits from the ore. But, ol -course,
we shall not grow to the Homestake't dimensions in one or half a dozen years.
IN ALL THIS WRITING WE HAVE SPOKEN ONLY OF
ONE OF OUR CLAIMS
-This because we are mining upon only one of the five, We have leased 16 acres '
of one of the other four to other parties, from which "we are to receive 15 per cent of
its gross receipts after deducting freight charges upon its shipments. This will doubt
less yield us a liberal income, and we have 87 acres still upon which we are just as ,
likely to find other mines as we were to strike it rich on this claim.
WATER IS ALL WE NEED .
And we will have that when we get down to its level. Another 100 feet will most
likely settle this question, but it would be no great damage if we were compelled to '
sink yet 200 feet We want to go down anyway. The Mohawk is down 500 feet and
is finding richer rock all the time. Other mines are having the same experience, and
we are confident we will, too. Why? Because experts in mining and the best min
ing engineers tell us so. But when we reach a place in close proximity to the water
level it must not be concluded that we will recklessly plunge down into the fluid.
When we reach the seepage we shall stop and crosscut. We will spend a month or two
right there. By that time we will have "our house in order," for the flow that will
start our mill, well knowing that every stockholder will recognize the wisdom of this
sensible preparation. Then, when we1 are ready for the keen activities of lively opera
tion, the wheels will begin to turn and the pounding of the stamps will usher in the
manifest prosperity -of the enterprise, and there will not be a stockholder on our books
who will be forgotten or slighted, or who ever will accuse the management of unfair
ness or neglect of duty. If ever there was a mining management on this green earth
determined to treat its people right, the Butte Boys of Portland is its name I
