Daily yield about 400 tons. The
mine Is looking we'll st all points, but
especially at the l300-foot level, which
is turning ont better than any Of the
levels above. The ore Is being extern
sively and systematically breasted out
to the extent Of 200 feet or more along
the main drift. AT the south end 1t is
worked to within about ten feet Of the
Belcher line. The ore Is Of extra rich
ness at that point and the body large.
The cross-cut or drift east, through the
ore body, Is In 1913 feet with the face
In low grade ore and porphyry, and no
sign OF any east wall. The prospects
of this mine are very flattering. The
main incline IA down TO the l400-foot
level. with little or no trouble from
water, and the station for the new
lower level will soo be opened.
There IL every reason for believing
that the ore body continues downward,
and that this level will open out az
good rs the present lowest level.

The shaft Is again drained so that
the pump has complete control Of the
water and the sinking Is resumed. The
main west drift Is thoroughly retIm-
bered and In good working condition
to the face, which Is about 10 feet into
the clay wall, cutting occasionally
punches and strlngers Of quartz, with
strong indications Of u near approach
to the main ledge. No work was
done In the face OF tho drift during the
week on account OF tho necessary re-
pairs to tho tunnel.

There Is no material change to re-
port In either the quantity or quality
of the ore produced during the week.
Sinking the incline Is making excellent
progress, the ground working we'll.
The main drift south on the l600-foot
level Is pushed steadily and vigorously
ahead. The main north drift on the
l80O-foot level, to connect with the
south drift from the Gould &c Curry. 10
making excellent progress, the rock
working we'll, with a considerable In
crease OF water In the face.

Drifting east at the l5OO-foot level
from the incline progressing as last
week, In hard dry blasting rock. The
drift east at the 400 foot level Is still
running In favorable ledge matter
with no sign of. the east wall. The
water tapped BY this DRIFT Is nearly all
drained out leaving but little, In fact
almost none to contend with. Drift
ing aud prosecuting at the l300-foot
level, north going forward as usual.
No new ore developments.
Chsllar.Pstssi.
Daily yield ll5 tons, the assay value
Of which Is $32 90 per ton. The ore
breasts In the different portions Of the
niue are looking aud yielding we'll as
usual. The prospecting drifts ut the
75O.foot level, are being driven ylgor-
ously ahead, with no change to note
during the week. The north DRIFT from
the 950.foot station Is driven steadily
ahead with no new development to
chronicle.
Iassrance.
The incline ls down 1l5 feet below
the tunnel level, and the sinking Is
stopped for the present OIL account Of
the steady increase Of water In the
shaft. A cross-cut west has been
started at this point to reach the west
wall, aud "a soon rs that Is accom-
plished two drifts will be started, n
north and tho other south. along the
line of the ledge, when good develop
ments may be looked for.
Buekcye.
Daily yield for the week 81 tons Of
good milling ore, showing an increase
in tho yield Of about "a tons per day.
The ore breasts on the different levels
never were looking and yielding bet
ter than ut present. The Sherman and
Hope mills are kept steadily running
on ore from the mine. An assessment
Of 81 per share. delinquent February
%, 1873, was levied last Tuesday.
Jaiia.
Opening a new station at the 1000
foot level Is making rapid progress.
The main east drift OIL the s00-foot
level is still driven ahead with better
Indications of n permanent ore body
than at u last report. The mine Is
In excellent working condition, the
hoistlng and pumping machinery work
%splendidly, aud the future looks bright
aud prosperous.
Pictsu.
Excellent progress made In sinking
the incline. Formation and indlca-
: tions much improved. The lower tun-
mel Is about being reopened and car
rled through to the ledge, which II
will cut at a depth Of $50 feet below
the surface, when something good may
be expected, judging from the upper
workings OF the ledge.
