Day Group Bonding Denied
Reports prevalent Friday to
the effect that the welll known
Day group ion the wefilt border
of the Big Missouri property
had been bonded by the Con
solidated Mining and Smelt
ing Company, controller of the
Big Missouri through a subsid
iary, the Buena Vista Mining
Company, are unequivocally
denied by parties in interest.
A representative of the prin
cipals informed the Herald this
morning in emphatic terms that
mo deal whatever had been
consummated.
According to the rumors, the
property had been taken over
by Consolidated under a short
time bond which involved no
immediate cash payments. The
property is owned jointly by
Mrs. E. T. Applewhaite and
P. S. Jack iof Stewart.
The Day group was taken
over under option by /the Con
solidated several years ago but
was subsequently relinquished
and no development work was
done. The group covers the
entire western border of the
Province claim, as well as a
portion of the Buena Vista
claim, reputedly the most high
ly mineralized units of the Big |
Missouri group so far revealed
by the long continued develop
ment operations of 'the Buena
Vista Mining Co. and its pre
decessor in control, the Big
Missouri Mining Company.
Although said to display
comparatively sparse surface
showings, the Day group is be
lieved by mining men to con
tain probable extensions of the
rich free gold leads found at
depth in the Big MisOuri. It
has also been mentioned as a
possible outlet for a low level
tunnel into the Big Missouri,
owing to its somewhat lower
elevation.
Roosevelt’s Entertain
Just Like Plain Folks
That simplicity of manner
and absence of affectation
which are %o strongly charac
teristic of President and Mrs.
Rioosevelt were strikingly ap
parent when Delegate and Mrs.
Dimond and Slim Williams
had supper with them a few
nights ago.
It was just like any other
family gathering to which a
few friends had been invited
and formality was entirely ab
sent. Mrs. Rdosevelt served
eggs and bacon from a chafing
dish and only the surround
ings gave evidence that this
was not just an ordinary Amer
ican home at which a pleasant
evening was being spent.
When supper was served the
President, Mr. Dimlond and
Slim retired to discuss Alaska
in general and Ithe Internation
al highway in particular. They .
found the President possessed ■
o.f a surprising fund of infor
mation concerning Alaska and
keenly interested in the high
way project.
