The Independent Company has its shaft
down some 40 feet, and has driven levs,
something more than 60 feet northward. The
vein Is some two and half feet in width. and
Is believed the rock will pay at least $500 per
ton. from casing to casing ="
WORK Is being vigorously prosecuted on the
Argenta mine, by that prince of superiptend-
ents 1. j. Kelley, who is working some 90
men, driving levels, etc. He has run into an
other nch chimney on u level with the tunnel.
and Judging from some ore that saw yester.
day, should suppose that the owners Of Tia,
mine have enough to satisfy any reasonable
men.
Gould q Co. have had some l2. tons of ore
from the Hamburg mine worked at Nortop's
mill, that paid handsomely. 1t was firs,-class
rock taken from the shaft, which is down some
90 feet.
