The purchasers are from New York. The principals and engineers have arrived at the mine and have been joined by Percy Fraser, president of the company. The amount said to be involved is $2,009,000. The mine was recently sampled and an assay by G. S. Eldridge, whe is one of the directors of the chamber of mines, is unusual, the percentage of gold being above 19, in weight, which is regarded as phenomenal by mining men. The chamber of mines have applied for specimens for dis- play, and poth President Woodside and Secretary Henry Browning express the opinion that the mine should prove exceptional with the showing of specimens. Mr. Eldridge says this assay is most unusual.
