Struck A Bonanza.-- George M. Yeakel, son of Reuben Yeakel, of Lexington, who about a year ago went to Colorado, has been in luck. In prospecting some time ago near Irvin Ruby Camp he discovered three silver mines, one of which is a very good one. He has also found iron and zinc. He believes he has struck a bonanza and intends to hold on to the mines until he can sell to advantage. He says “it makes a poor devil like me, feel good to strike a good mine.” We hope he may reap a fortune.
