Silver Ore in Ben Hur Property A strike of unusual interest has been made in this district, on the property of the Ben Hur Company. A body of good grade silver ore was encountered some time ago, from which several cars have been shipped.
The returns on the first car run in the neighborhood of a thousand dollars, and as this is the first shipment of silver ore from this district which has produced immense quantities of gold but no silver up to the time this company opened the new ore, it is attracting considerable attention.
Mr. F. H. Pettingell of Colorado Springs, who has devoted years to the affairs of the Ben Hur Company, is well pleased with the results of his efforts, and predicts great things for the new "silver mine.
