Ervay has just brought from Cripple Creek a piece of ore weighing 100 pounds which is literally allve with free gold 'and which will carry values aggregatlng fully $100,000 to the ton. The ore was taken from a new find and is in many respects the most sensational ever made in Cripple Creek. The rich rock was uncovered at a depth of only six feet.
