FLORENCE IMMENSELY RICH A strike that promises to rival the phenomenal production of the famous Engineers' lease, which earned nearly $600,090 in dividends in three months, was made a few days ago in the lease block adjoining, formerly known aa the Daisy Florence, but now held and oper ated by the Mitchell-Fairfield Develop ment company. The find was made last Sunday In an upraise from the 315 foot level. Four Inches of quartz assays $461.60 a ton -and four inches of talc lying parallel to it assays $437.80 a ton. Between the quarti and the talc lies a narrow streak of ore that ia half gold, making the average value for the -nine Inches something .sensational. If the find holds out the record of the En gineers' will easily be duplicated and possibly exceeded. A strange freak of fortune in connec tion with this discovery Is the fact that the picture streak was found within six inches of wherp the former owners of the lease stopped work after spending upward of $100,000 in a vain endeavor to locate the treasure. The Daisy Flor ence was controlled by Campbell, David son & Co. of Chicago. They sunk a shaft 315 feet and did a vast amount of lateral work and while good assays were frequently obtained they could not lo cate an ore body. The company finally exhausted its treasury and the lease finally passed Into the hands of the Mitchell-Fairfield Development company, the consideration being $900 and per cent of the net earnings for the Daisy Florence shareholders. Crosscuts had been driven to the north and south on the $15 foot level, the former being out 80 feet from the shaft and the latter about 20 feet. It was in this south crosscut that Foreman Koster discovered a knife blade of al most pure gold last Sunday. He de cided to follow this seam and the first round of shots uncovered the bonanza. In addition to the nine inches of very rich etuff there ia considerable rood rock on both sides and the ore as Tt is being broken down runa better than $200 a ton. stab UAsnra oosopajit. The Ooldfield 8tar Leasing & Mining company, operating on the Lone Star, ia down 250 feet In its vertical shaft. A station Is being cut at that point ft,nd. rolBcut will be driven to lap tho old incline where some rich ore was un covered a couple of months ago. The crosscut should enter the ore In about 80 feet. 30,000 SHARES LEFT AT 4 CENTS EACH Ue have sold 20,000 bf the 50,600 shares donated to the company by some of its largest stockholders to be sold at 4 cents oer share, and no matter what happens at the mine, THIS stock will be sold at this price. We cannot raise it, because it was fixed by the donors, but its sale does not enlarge the oustanding stock. It is shares previously, sold and now being resold to replen ish the company s treasury. . - iB .worn iu iqiurn IT'S GOING THOUGH, PEOPLE.
