McBeth & Melander are working the

good galena ore in the shaft. which is

working on the Little Giant, located
on what is known as the Trinity Ledge,

looks as if McBeth was about TO make
another raise in mipes.
The White & Shiloh Cosnpany have
resumed work and mean business this
time. They are going to connect the
shafts of both mines by drift for
ventilating purposes. so as to further
develop both locations. The company
is now making preparations to build
furnaces for the purpose of reducing
the ore into bullion on the ground.
This will give others who have ore in
the vicinity an opportunity to dispose
of it or have it reduced at home. The

il is, however, greatly injured. The piers
on which that portion OF the bridge rested
which was carried away are in bad condi-
ton, and will need considerable repairing.
The iron-work Of the spans which were
not swept oil is twisted into all manner OF
shapes, and considerable amount Of work
will be required to place the bridge back
in its original condition. The paper-mill
bridge will be replaced by the time that it
ig needed. The bridge over the canal in
front Of the sumac mills has been repaired,
and is ready for use. This bridge was not
carried of, but was badly damaged.
