scene of the new strike on Dex

nugget weighing around foilr dol

that the new pay streak evidently
heads into the creek. To all ap
pearances the pay body is not as
extensive as has been earlier re
ported being only a few feet wide
and something like four feet
thick. The ground is good
however, and will prove a valua
ole thing if there is sufficient of
it.
The following prompt reply to

ment found in class productions
only action, real action, spirited
and true to life. This picture is
a condensation of a complete R.

the bill. Usual pric*.
