progress Of 5 to G feet per day. II Is now
down 40 feet on the stope below the 1000
level or perpendicularly to within 20 feet
OF the $500 level. The north drift on this
level has not yet mado q connection with
the south drift from the Yellow jacket but
will do 30 in . day or two more. The

The excavations for tho supply yard and
sido track near the railroad level are about
completed, and tho tunnel will bo driven
toward the shaft. This will pass beneath
the shaft, and give drainage for the spring
OF water GO feet below the surface which
interfered with the sinking. Good ora
will also probably bc developed by this
tunnel.
The drift recently started on tho vein Of
quartz At the 1850 level Is making good
progress, and the quartz Ia gradually
widening and increasing In value ~ the
drift advances. The ore IL OF q tolerably
fair quality, assaying from SO to $50 per
ton. Everything working we'll both above
and below ground.
