Meeting of Two Old Acquaintances Overlooked at Peak
A queer meeting linked Col Wim Roy of Nogales Arizona and CA Robinson owner of the Yellow Rose in the Magdalena district and sheriff of Socorro County New Mexico. They once met daily in Socorro six years ago but recently stood together on Vike's Peak without recognizing each other. The Bullion editor notes the missed chance for a closer view. Kingston New Mexico judge Wim Burns visits and backs a miners convention to protest alien acts and urge Congress to support free coinage of silver.

A Poor Prospector’s Luck
David Sweekheimer, a Colorado and New Mexico prospector, rose from near poverty to striking it rich. His wife’s $434,000 lottery win spurred a gamble to mine, yielding $1,000,000 in two years. He sold the claim to Denver investors for $1.5 million, with a $1,000,000 final payment, as the mine later fetched $2.5 million in New York.
