C.,Wilson, of Trenton, N. .1., who has been in this county looking after his mining interests for the past week, is a ell pleased with his prospects Itert;, and since investigating the mining busi- ness in this county touch imprileeed with the future of that industry. In speaking of his trip to Kendall and Gilt Edge, he said : \They err both t great camps In Ken- dall the managers of both the Kendall and Barnes-King mines took me through their mines and Mills and treated me more courteously Lhan I was ever treated by the employers of big mines. The secret of it is that they have absolutely nothing to conceal. They have moun- tains of ore and are not aftaid to let one see what they have and the business they are doing. The same conditions exist in the Gold Reef in Gilt Edge. I . well: ... no feel sure that the Case -Wilson Cyanide wn klz Development company, of which I MD Takes a a member, has two excellent properties, one lying just north.of Kendall and the other eolith of Gilt Edge. We have struck a good body of ore in the latter mine and are very sanguine of making a good strike within the next two weeks on the Kendall claim. ft , Accident at he Barnes -King Yeeterday (Monday) a few minutes before 12 o f eloek. - noon, Joseph McDon- ald had the misfortune to accidentally cut his back so huffily that that he , 14 It have to stay in -bed for a week or two at least.
