A Successful Firm Located in Beverly, 
The.firm.of BW. Bernard™Gos lo- 
cated in the Rogers Block, Beverly, 
have made a remarkable record in de- 
veloping gold mining properties in 
California. Beginning in June, 1904, 
with their first mine the La Rita, the 
first dividend was declared August 1st 
and four dividends have been paid up 
to Jan. 1st, 1905. Dividends at the 
rate of over 100% per annum have been 
paid stockholders. No stock is for 
sale at the present time. 
Their second property the 
State mine, was secured in June, a 
tunnel was started at once to strike 
the channel of the ancient river bed. 
January 8th the gravel was struck, 
and proved to be remarkably rich. 
The stock was put on the market in 
October at 75 cents per share. Div- 
idends began Jan. 1st, 1905, and will 
be paid monthly. 
In November, 1904, a new mine 
was purchased in Angels Camp, Calif. ; 
this will undoubtedly become one of 
the large mines of Angels Camp. 
The property is situated within a few 
hundred feet of the railroad, and con- 
sists of 16 claims in all, with inclined 
shaft and thousands of feet of under- 
ground workings, 24 miles of ore 
bodies. The mine is completely 
equipped with all’ modern improve- 
ments and is now running night and 
day. The mine is already ona div- 
idend paying basis, ‘but no dividends 
will be paid until July first. The 
latest report from the mine shows 
that ore to the amount of $2,500,000 
is blocked out and in sight. 
The remarkable success of this firm 
in so short a time is very gratifiying. 
The firm consists of F. W. Bernard 
and J. H. Meyers of Forest Hill, Calif. 
Mr. Bernard attends to the financier- 
ing of the company and Mr. Meyers 
to the managing of the mining pro- 
perties. — ey
