have a two-year lease, with a well equipped

tiu feet of crosscut. We will sink the shaft
2(H) feet deeper when we feel sure we will
get the same ore as the Red Top Consoli

same as ours. Keep your e e on Night Hawk

(Goods!
The pay streak in the operations of the Butte Boys Consolidated Mining Company is no longer a myth, but a reality, and rapidly
occurring events point to the fulfillment in the near future of the long cherished desires of the stockholders in this enterprise. Ori
Saturday, August 15, we received a telegram from our foreman saying: "We are taking out $140 ore on our Lida lease." A later;
telegram says: "Lida first class ore runs $300." This Llda lease is a little surprise we have been saving for our stockholders. On!
Manager Bever's last trip to Goldfield he secured a three-year lease on the Centennial mine at Lida, a short distance from Goldfield,
for which the company had been negotiating for some time. This property is equipped with a steam hoist and paraphernalia, 100 cords
of wood and an abundance of water. At the present time we are following a 13-foot ledge at the 80-foot level, and a mill test of
wagonload of this ore ran $211.19 to the ton. This fact alone, had we no other prospect in the Goldfield region, should make everjj
stockholder's heart beat with anticipation. Time and development alone can only determine the extent and value of this property.
We are following this ledge straight into the hill, and every foot we crosscut gives us almost a foot in depth, and with only an 80-foot
lift we should easily be able to take out a hundred tons of ore per day, and should the ore not increase in value with depth, the
present average would give $14,000 worth of ore per day, or $98,000 peY week, or $392,000 per month, or $4,704,000 per year, and three
times this amount for the term of our lease, so at a glance we can see what the possibilities of this property are. This is what we,
have at Llda, to say nothing of the Butte Boys claims, the Floren ce lease, the Night Hawk lease, the Silver Peak property and the
Hart claims. We believe we can and expect to make the Butte Boys one of the greatest mining companies in Nevada. We have mi
dead properties "to show on paper." We don't buy them and hav e no stock in that kind to sell. Money received for our stock i.
used to develop the interests of our stockholders "the secret of Biutte Boys' success."

The Florence Centra
Now just a word about what we hope will
prove to the our greatest property, the Florence
Central. There are many things which go to
make this a desirable investment. The first
is its location in the lidst of so many rich
producers. Another is the favorable terms of
our lease, the amount of development work
already done when we secured it, and the im
minence of striking pay ore at any turn of the
shovel. Instead of having to do four or five
months' dead work in sinking on this prop
erty, we went right to work on the 400-foot
level, with mining machinery and everything
in readiness to make the most of the time
limit. W'e are working three shifts and are
crosscutting at the rate of seven or eight feet
per day toward the contact of the Bee
Fraction ledge, where we believe we have one
of the bonanzas of the district, and not with
out reason. We already have tapped ledges
which go from $6.40 to $48 to the ton and a
tew isolated ones which go very much higher,
and tin's is exactly the formation which all the
other big producers surrounding have passed .
through.
Look on. the accompanying map and note the rich
producers surrounding us on all sides. The Engineers'
Lease has declared the third dividend within the short
space of two months, aggregating a total of $270,000.
V. Florence. Leasing Co., Hall Lease. Rogers Syn

we are to "real richness," and we are expecting to re
ceive word any day that we have struck the "high
crade." And in all fairness to evervbody concerned '
we must say that whenever we do Strike "pay dirt."
whether it is tomorrow or next month, there will be
no more stock for sale.
