1Info Title:
Poorman With Good Indications of Mineral
A two days' jaunt on horseback took me from Rhyolite hill, on the north, to Grouse mountain, on the south, and from Pisgah, on the west, to Wilson creek, on the east, within which boundaries some four thousand claims have been located.
The greater part of those have nothing more than the assessment work done upon them, and in many instances, this has been so indifferently done, and with such an utter abandon and disregard of the statues, that they cannot be held for a moment to comply with the legal requirements.
But, in traversing Ennis, Globe, Gold, Bull, Tenderfoot, Womack, Mineral and a score or more of hills in the district, sources of Cripple, Wilson, Requa, Squaw and other water courses, I came upon scores of properties that were being developed with more or less vigor and intelligence, some with tunnels or inclines, others with shafts or open cuts, and the owners of each full of hope and expectations.
Among those having already good indications of mineral was the Poorman lode claim on Ennis mountain. From statements made to me by different parties I have that the Poorman had $170 in Smelter or Mill Returns.

New Lessees on Poorman in Good Ore
MORE ORE FOR WORK
——————
A Strong Chute Has Been Opened in the Poorman Claim.
——————
ORE IS OF A GOOD GRADE
——————
JACKSON AND HARTIG ARE THE LUCKY MEN THIS TIME
——————
The Jackson and Hartig lease on the Poorman of the Work company is showing a fine body of ore at the 175-foot level. Just how people who worked the property missed the mineral it will be hard to explain.
When the ground was secured a few days ago by the present people a rail in the floor of the level mentioned was taken up, a shot put in and twelve inches of ore was exposed, and it has since been opened for a distance of 50 feet.
No assay so far had has run under two ounces, and from that up to 65 ounces to the ton. The vein has also been found in the bottom of the shaft that is 205 feet deep, and a level is being driven out that is in ore of as good a grade as that found above.
