Total length, including the east
and west drifts Of shaft No. ]. 4,7s7
feet. From the face of the east drift
TO the header Of the main tunnel the
distance IL about $50 feet. twill take
about a month to excavate this dis
lance, when the tunnel will be nearly
or quite a mile In length. The other
three shafts along the line OF the tun-
mel are being sunk as speedily as cir
cumstances will admit.

The shaft 10 down 40 feet. A sta
ton has been opened at the 4OO-foot
level and a drift started for the ledge,
which Is In IS feet, the face In quartz
and porphyry. indicating a near APP
proach TO the ledge. The drift will
undoubtedly soon strike the ledge, as
It will have but q short distance to run
to do IL; when It does, some fine de-
velopments may be looked for.

The south drift at the second station

station. The hosting apparatus 10
steadily gaining on the flow Of water
at the second station, and 1t Is ex.
pected that the water will soon be SUI

A very promising streak Of quartz and

The ore bodies ut tile first. second
and fourth stations are developing
finely. There Is ore enough already
In sight, ofa good quantity, to keeptle
mill running without interintssion for
the noxt six months. The ore works
