C Hyder on the American side has rear discovery Thornton of the boundar Mr. The n has spent more than years driving ice tunnels in a living glacier in an effort to trace gold float running as high as $81,000 per ton. During this period he has driven more than 6,000 feet of tunnels in the ice and has been successful in finding the rich ore in places though much remains to be done before it can be definitely determined whether or not he has a commercial ore body The present excessive cost of transporting supplies to the property has greatly hampered him in his work and it is believed that he de- serves help in the matter of extending a road to his property. This has been agreed upon The method of expressing the values of a mining property differs in different districts In the placer mining areas of the north values are expressed as running so much to the pan cubic yard or bedrock square foot. In lode mining properties values are expressed as run- ning so much to the ton. Mr. Thornton dur- ing the progress of his work has collected high grade in a kerosene can which he brings from under the glacier at the end of the shift Seven and one half gallons of ore recently yielded $1,000. Mr. Thornton smiled he admitted that his picked ore runs $13 per gallon Gold, as the old saying goes, is Where you find patient, on the ground that it is repugnant to good s to relieve human suffering at a price.
