Modena has had several excellent ex-cellent baths letely and we are going go-ing to look real pert by spring. Owing to the seriousness of the flu at Enterprise, we have had to take the precaution to exclude all persons from that vicinity. Nurses and doctors doc-tors from Salt Lake have been sent for. We are glad to say that at this writing Modena is free from any dis-. ease and we hope that people who have been exposed to the flu will stay away. The Liberty Leasing and Mining' Campany operating at Stateline, have some beautiful specimens of manganese mangan-ese which was struck at the one hundred hun-dred foot level of the shaft that is being sunk to the three hundred foot level. They company was not looking look-ing for a rich find in this shaft as their object was to get in a position to stop at the well known ledge which at the surface is eighty feet from the new shaft. This find will not prevent them pursuing their original or-iginal course, but with this added encouragement, en-couragement, the boys seem in a hurry to get under the main ledge. The old timers are beginning to say, "I told you so." |
