NORTH sHORESBREEPZE 
OF INTEREST TO INVESTORS. 
We would call the attention of our 
‘readers to the advertisement of the Essex 
Consolidated Mines Company of Beverly, 
Mass. , 
The officers of the company are well 
and favorably known. Having been in- 
terested as a stock-holder in the company 
from its beginning we are glad at the pre- 
sent time to call attention to the careful 
and business-like management of the com- 
pany. 
Every intelligent person must be fully 
aware that nothing so surely offers large 
returns on an investment as a good mining 
stock. 
It is not generally known how many 
people there are who are enjoying a regu- 
lar income as a result of investing in a good 
mining stock. “There-are thousands of 
them, and they are largely those who 
bought their stock when the opportunity 
was first offered to secure shares at a low 
price before the company had begun to 
pay dividends. 
The officers of the company authorize 
the statement that in one claim alone there 
is actually 3,000,000 tons of ore ready to 
break down and put through the reduction 
plant. 
The manager at the mines, Mr. J. L. 
Green, a mining man of many year exper- 
ience, makes the following statement in a 
recent letter to the company: ‘“The 
amount of ore (3,000,000 tons) which I 
stated was ready to break down in the South 
Carolina Claim was more than conserva- 
tive. I simply gave the amount of one 
which was shown in the foot-wall, but I 
have been told by parties familiar with the 
mine whom I have every reason to believe, 
that there is equally as good and as much 
ore in the hanging-wall as there is in the 
foot-wall. 
“Tf this is a fact, then the mine has 
nearly 6,000,000 tons. of ore above the 
lower tunnel.. Just think of it! 
fabulous, doesn’t it? 
Sounds 
‘There are those who 
But this esti- 
mate is based on actual measurements and 
can be depended on. 
‘Estimating the value of the ore as low 
as $3.00 per ton it would amount to nearly 
$18,000,000. 
“I. have been in the mining business 
many years, but this is the only dead sure 
thing I ever saw. 
will scoff at the statement. 
In fact it is not mining. 
It is simply tearing down the ore already 
mined, and putting it through the Mill.’’ 
Such a statement as this from a mining 
expert of years of experience in examining 
mines, is startling to say the least, but when 
it is well known that Mr. Green is noted 
as being excessively conservative and care- 
ful in his statements it carries conviction on 
its face as to the value of the property. 
As this claim, the South Carolina, is only 
one of seventeen owned by the company— 
the magnitude of the property can be easily 
realized. 
We have no hesitation in commending 
the stock of the Essex Consolidated Mines 
Company as a good investment. 
The company will be glad to send full 
particulars in regard to the property.
