It was estimated that al the end of lust year Ihere were 5)3,- 000 tons of ore, averaging 0.G7 ounce of gold and 1 0.5 ounces of silver, broken in the slopes, ami 300,000 tons, an evcraging 0.85 ounce in gold and 15 ounces in silver, blocked out. Thus, it will be seen, there still ts I0,520,'J00 worth of actual ore of a com cial grade in the mine. Besides this there is a considerable (on nage of complex ore above tho present bottom level, which, though it cannot be treated pro fitably at Ibe present time, may be profitably treated at u later date, when a process lias been devised to handle it. Claims Purchased During the year, the company added thirteen claims to its hold ings, for which it paid rather less than $25,000. None ofthesu claims, the' report slates, has any surfuee showings of purlieu lar promise, but they were considered lo bo a fair gamble, at thu price Vaid for them. The Latest In Restaurants.
