Ala denth Of four hundred and forty. five

AT q depth OF four hundred and forty five
feet vein OF water Was struck in the Nc
Campbell coal shaft last week. II is singular
that such depth should be reached before
any water appeared. When struck the water
spurted up twelve or fifteen feet, forcing an
abandonment Of the works for time but
the main volume soon exhausted itself. The
bottom Of the SHAFT must be below the bed OF
the Arkansas some distance. The workmen
are now in gray slate. unlike any thing yet
passed through. Mr.. McCampbell says great
difficulty is now experienced in getting a
SUFFICIENT supply Of air. the present canvas
funnel proving entirely inadequate, and he
thinks he will be compelled to erect blow
or. The faith, energy and persistency with
which McCampbcll has prosecuted this work
for four years is, to say the least, surprising.
and, II some bright morning he should strike
paying deposit Of coal great would be his
rejoicing.

guess c. II. Abbot, the architect and builder,
will turn out one Of the handsomest and most
imposing public edifices in this portion Of the
State. The one criticism that we would of.
fer is that the building is not up OF the
ground high enough by at least two feet.
Still, it will make very fine appearance.

Weekly Chronicle reaches us containing q full
account of the new discovery. The Sunny
Side Tunnel is about five miles from Lead
Vile and eight hundred feet above the bed Of
the Arkansas. The vein is a true fssure, a
large number of specimens from which, to-
gcther with a silver shot smelted from the ore
can be seen ut Schattner's billiard room. The
Chronicle says 1--WE were shown large-sized
silver button from an assay made from ore Ia
ken from the Sunny Side which gave 1888
ounces to the ton. Other assays from infe-
rior ore proved beyond doubt that they had
struck a body of mineral in paying quanti-
ties. The vein is from four to five feet in
width. The lode was originally located one
year ago, but abandoned, and was relocated
May Goth by Geo. w. Melville, o. F. BOYLE,
Chas. Schattner and W. p. Rouse, Of Wichi-
tn. Kansas. Close to this the same parties,
together with G. X. Person and W. W.Rupp,
of Wichita, have located another in which
tunnel 81 feet in length has been run. The
same paper says the new strike is regarded
with much interest because it is outside the
belt known to contain mineral and enlarges
the possibilities Of the country proportion
ately. We congratulate our boys upon their
good luck.
