EUROPA.
Development work Aboas 90 be Re-
sumed-Ths Yellow Jacket New
Shaft the BASIS OF Operations.

Work il about to DO commenced
through the Yellow Jacket new shaft fer
the purpose Of prospecting the Europa
ground. lying north Of tta Jacket and
south Of the Ward. 1t is three years
since anything has been done in the
Europa. At the time the company shut
down. their prospects for opening a val
liable property were very ilattering.
They had sunk q shaft $50 feet in depth,
and at 800 feet they nj o orosscut west
under the superintendepcy OF John Lam.
bert, and cut . we'll defined vein OF
Quartz 60 feet In width, giving assays
ranging from "a to $26. At this point
the vein las per survey Of r. II. Stretoh)
had O pitch OF 80 degrees to the east.
They then continued sinking with the
expectation OF cutting their ledge In the
shaft at about 800 feet. the shaft being
some distance east OF their ledge. but
about the time they had prosecuted the
work to q depth Of $50 feet the unfortu-
nate death Of Il. @. Kibbe. who held the
controlling interest in the stock OF the
company, put Astop to operations. The
present management, after surveying the
ield, concluded to await the progress of
the south lateral branch OF the Sutro
tunnel, which will pass through the
Europa ground, interesting It at the
northeast corner. at the Ward line, and
crossing d~iagonally to the Jacket shaft.
near the southwest corner OF the Ssgre-
gated Europa, at . depth Of 1860 feet.
It has been Q matter Of surprise to the
mining people Of the Comstock that the
management Of this valuable property
should have allowed 1t to lie dormant so
long, but their policy Of iuaction has
evidently been 10 the interests OF the
stockholders, ss on the northeast Of the
property the Ward shaft has now At
tanned q depth OF 1000 feet. and on the
southeast Is the new shalt OF the Yellow
Jacket, now down about $500 feet, from
which II 10 proposed to drift north to
meet the Sutro tunnel. With these ia
cilities the Europa Company a pros
pect their property. or have 1t pros
pected for them more fully. without cost
to thom. than they could have done at q
cost Of $3.50, 900 by continuing their own
shaft. as they would have been COM
PEELED to put in expensive machinery.
The Segregated Europa. which adjoins
on the south, a. well AZ the Europa, are
both very valuable properties, and a
prosperous future 10 in store for the
stockholders a. soon as they can reach
their ground from either direction. which
they will undoubtedly be able TO do from
the south lateral branch Of the Sutro
tunnel, on the north end Of the Europa,
in about 90 days. and q drift Of about
$50 feet from the Jacket shaft will reach
the Segregated Europa on the south end.

the goods were delivered to the partner
in Boston at his ntore. II was only for

that when they had once been shipped
toward that point, It all constituted sim.
ply one transit. The right to stop goods

Wonder IL people ever stop to think
what o wonderful development IL being

feet Of ore and fne vein material carry
ing strinsers Of rich ore, and no end 10
he thing YET IN either direction-for to the
west the ore has never been traced to q
wall or even . border. Here Is q chance,
surely. to eclipse the $50 feet OF width
Of the big BONANZA in Con. Virginia.
The rapid approach Of the Sutro tun-
.nsl's north header towards tho north end
Is an important fact for the mines In
that direction. II, combined with the
increased facilities at the ~mines-hesvy
machinery and the like-will soon put
the north end mines Ia much better
condition for deep mining than they
sver have been.
They commence this evening putting
the pumps in at the Union shaft.

Tho ophir pumps are today running
to the $500 level. This will allow Of Q

Parties who arc now working the
Dayton gravel mine claim to have dis.
covered that BY sinking q stump in the
bedrock aud then drifting along tho
rock in the gravel. the water runs to the
stump and escapes through the bedrock,
and that they will be able to work their

MOUNTAINEERING.
somcshisg OF she Way Ia which
Thinxs are Practically Taught
I'm our schools.

A man never gets IN idea OF how fast
the world moves till he gets out OF Lis
own sphere into some other. IN order
10 see how great progress has beer. made
in teaching. he must get into q modern
school room where the teacher has kept
progress with the age Of improvements
in the methods OF imparting instruction.
In the Gold Hill schools every faculty
Of the pupil is awakened and sharpened.
Even tables Of weights and measures in
the primary classes are taught as object
lessons. They have the scales and the
weights and the measures right there,
and the scholars see that 1t takes sixteen
ounces to make one pound and two giils
to make Q pint, ETC., mp to the gallon.
The result 10 that little children from
seven to nine years old will foot mp
pounds and ounces and even fractions Of
ounces and give tho correct total with q
facility which Is surprising. The same
Ia true Of measures. including quarts,
pints. Rills, etc. -.
But this Is not all. They are taught
10 form correct estimates OF the weights
Of objects. They are handed q buck or
something OF the kind and then est.
mates OF its weight are taken. One Of
the scholars then weighs the object and
announces the result. The importance
Of this kind Of practice in estimating the
properties OF things will become sppar.
emit u OF these days when success In
life may depend on accuracies OF judg.
meut. The above il cited only as one OF
many ways Of sharpening the perceptive
faculties OF the children. II teaches
them to think, and that Is, after all, as
good q definition a. can DO given Of real
education.
Aud then to teach the little ones geog-
raphy they are set to world building on
q small scale. They are furnished With
q suitable measure Of loan in q fitting
receptacle, furnished with implements,
and construct ranges OF mountains and
hills aud valleys and plains and canyons
and ravines, and to form all the phases
presented BY the solid part OF the earth.
Then they 90 to work and run mines.
Their shafts never get very deep nor
their tunnels long before q cave occurs;
but the theory is exemplifed aud thor.
oughly Understood. Such lessons are
never forgotten.
Another phase Of geography has been
as one might say practically taught OF
late. too. The melting SHOWS have
made . puddle Of water in the back yard
and that is taken as an ocean. aud the
dry places in II serve for continents and
islands and the like. The little streams
Of water running in are taken to illus
trate the formations OF rivers and creeks.
The smaller puddles Of water do nicely
for lakes. aud 30 the little e get q
ready idea Of the big world on which
they live from the little world around.
There IL not . map in the world like
that back yard. nor q play ground equal
in attractions to their school room.
