Show THE centennial EUREKA WW W W chisholm Ohis holm treasurer and a heavy stockholder in the centennial eureka mine in gintic tintic district returned a few days ago from an inspection of this great dividend payer this being his first visit to the property for several months the centennial eureka has long had the reputation n of being one of the richest mines n the state or in the west for that matter and it has been a veritable bonanza for its fortunate stockholders who for many a month on a stretch have taken down two dollars a share in dividends the company during its comparatively brief existence having paid in dividends to say nothing of the small fortune paid out in the performance of development work 2 in wages wages 11 andin and in the substantial improvements which adorn the property with but short intermissions the centen nial eureka has been a steady shipper and dividend payer for seven or eight years and the mine has been extensively systematically economically and intelligently 7 developed no gouging has ever been allowed allowed and exploration work has always been pushed ahead of ore extraction so that today the mineral reserves in sight and blocked out in the drifts and levels of the property are some thing immense the values in sight variously estimated by outside and disinterested parties being something like three millions and the mine is constantly improving with every foot of of work clone in its development which is being carried on under the supervision of manager 0 E allen alien with superintendent N A dunyan in direct charge of operations 1 I am well pleased with the present showing in the centennial eureka said mr chisholm Ohis holm in commenting on his recent visit to the mine and I 1 must say that never before have I 1 seen such fine bodies of good pay ore exposed in its workings the mineral zones carrying excellent values in copper lead silver and gold with a decided tendency to an increase in their copper contents in november of

EIGHT THE centennial EUREKA I 1 CONTINUED FROM PAGE FIVE exploration work on the foot level the result being that on thursday june 1 the ore chute was again disclosed and now drifts are being run for this splendid zone or body of mineral on the TOO and aad also on the 1000 foot levels with almost every assurance that it will be found to be continuous and permanent to the latter depth the history of the centennial eureka carries with it a lesson and is a proof of the time honored saying that 1 mines are where you find them not many years ago this ground was looked upon as being almost valueless although adjoining the eureka hill at that time and even now one of the great wealth producers of eureka high up on the mountainside mountain side in close realize that there was something in the blue rock after all fine bodies of exceptionably tion ably rich ore were uncovered in its workings the mine quickly jumped to a paying basis regular monthly dividends of a dollar and even two dollars a share began to be the order of the day the stock of the company became buoyant it began to soar skyward touching 12 a share then 25 dumb with astonishment mining men could scarcely speak when the shares of the company touched 50 and when nhen it finally went up to 75 and a few years ago the timid investor in troops and in scores kicked thease themselves fv e 8 behind the barn for a
