ID. A. JENNINGS: Secretary-During
the past week developments through
out the mine have been of the most
favorable character.
Two hundred and ffty-foot level
Wine below north drift from east
cross-cut was sunk % feet, making a
total depth OF 80 feet. AT that point we
have started a drift TO the northeast, to
cut across and ascertain the width of
the vein; the ore continues TO be ofex
ira coed quality. On northeast drift
from old works of south shaft, Sc feet
above $50 foot level, we have cut a vein
of good ore, which is from tour to five
feet wide, this we believe to be a part
Of the same ore body. The Wine be-
low the 250-foot level is being sunk in
ore.
Four hundred and fifty foot level
Main south drift was advanced % feet,
making a total Of 426 feet from turn
table, leaving 100 feet yet to run before
being under inZe below the $50 foot
level. Face in broken lime mixed
with seams of iron and low grade ore.
We have done but little work below
the $50 foot level during the week, on
account OF having 40 room in the
dumps to store away the ore. What
work that was done, however, shows a
decided Improvement. We have just
completed arrangements for the reduc-
ton OF from 500 to 900 ton of our
ores, and will commence shipping to
the furnace to day. This will give us
dump and enable us to resume
work on sone four prospecting drifts
that we were obliged to stop early in
the week for var of dump room
Six hundred foot-level-South drift
advanced IA feet, making a total of 100
feet; face is now in broken limestone.
No changes of importance TO note in
other portions of the mine.

Since my last there Is no change of

AT present the contact between quartz

We have been obliged to suspend sink

a fan; this will be completed in the
course of a week, when the sinking
will be resumed. The winze being
sunk from No. 7 chamber is sunk on

1t is the intention of the X X Com
psny to use the full capacity of their
the surplus water. Another tank has
been placed in the hosting compart-
ment of the shaft. and will be used in
conjunction with the old one, until
sucn time as the water is lowered be-
low the seventh level. A bulkhead
will be- placed in this level about $50
feet from the shaft, and by this means
the flow of water will be controlled.
The object is to get at the rich body OF
ore between the sixth and seventh
levels. 1t is of very high grade, much
richer than any that has been found in
the upper levels, and extensive in pro-
portion. AS % as the water is balled
out, the force of men now idle will be
mt to work again.

ART.
A Visit to the Collection at Masonic
Hall.

Among the multifarious duties of a
reporter in this section of country,
labors that embrace every known field,
from a lively description Of a dog fight
TO a high flown criticism on an opera
singer, there is perhaps no subject that
he could approach with more dlf1idence
than a disquisition on high art. Studies
in oil, as the critic glibly terms the
gems from the easels of renowned art
lists, are scarce articles in our young
town. 1t may be possible that a few
are to be found adjoining the parlors of
our more wealthy citizens, but we opine
that it would puzzle one to find their
locality. The fact is. that while the
taste for pictures is largely developed,
We are still in the chrome stage OF ex-
%istence, and have not as yet progressed
to The higher flights. Culture comes
with experience, and is a matter of
education. A savage is attracted by a

tend to higher and more e ,thetic tastes,
subscribe to art journals, and betray a
fancy for engravlngs; but productions
from the brushes Of reputable artists
are a rarity. To us all, the collection
now on exhibition at Masonic Hall is a
revelation. Tue fact is demonstrated

EUREKA ~GRAVEYARDS.
A Neglected Locality.


All civilized people honor the graves
of their kindred, and some OF the holt
est attributes of our nature find ex.
preston in our reverence for the last
resting places OF the departed. The
opportunities for displaying these
traits are not the best in this desolate
land. The bending and waving will
lows, the verdure aud flowers that the
hand OF affection delights To cultivate
on the mounds and about the grounds
to which our lea one have been con-
signed, j. here denied us. The brown
hillside that has been selected as a
burial ground for our dead contains no
possibilities for these adornments.
Flowers wither, and verdure dies i'll
this rocky and uncongenisl soil, and no
amount of care or labor will overcome
its baroness. But while recognizing
this, we at least should not. as nj pres
ent, abandon the cemetery to the ami
NAL creation. 1t il a painful sight to
notice a drove of hogs roofing in the
mounds of earth that marks the graves,
to see them bedding IN the cemetery. or
to witness cattle rubbing against the
slabs or disputing with the hogs the
chance to destroy a plant that has been
placed by a mourner on the grave.
Some effort should be made to decent
ly enclose the graveyard. Its location
is now defined by a rude fence that is
no protection against the inroads of
stock. 1t should be enclosed with a
substantial one, and the expenditure in
that direction would he appreciated by
those who have laid their friends and
kindred in this neglected spot. It's
present condition is a %reproach to the
town.
