principal directors are expected to visit the works ill few days, and 1t is thought that steam hosting works will follow. The mine is ill excellent condition, and was never more promising -Eagle.- The shaft is now down 95 feet in good vein matter. A few days ago the quality of the ore changed, and the bottom is at present very promising The vein is from three to four feet wide and opens out as it decends. .-Contact Work was tenn porarily stopped on the Contact last Fri day, and tho proprietors, Clark & King, have gone to the Sonora border to exam inc some mining property.

The ore resembles that extracted from its neighbor the Randolph, and promises, when fully developed, to equal that ia nous bonanza This claim is owned by
 
 Randolph. Things are running along as usual. The ore bodies are, if anything, growing more extensive, and there Is not 8 pick being struck in waste in the mine. Winze No. IS progressing rapidly, and seems to be in the neghbornood of an eX- tensive mountain of ore. In winze No. the ore body remains about the same, except that the ore IS of freeE milling quality. Winzes Nos. 8 and are still in good ore, and making good headway. The ore shipped to the mill is drawn daily from the mine and the dump is still in- tact. The northeast drift from No. winze is improving i'll quality of ore. The mine is in excellent condition. Shipping from twelve to fifteen tons daily to the mill. Franklin. crosscuts from the 100-foot level are now in little over 100 feet both ways. Looking very fair. Several strata of rich ore were encounter ed, but nothing extensive enough to war rant following. Con.-Still | sinking in a very promising vein. At "A feet from surface vein took sudden dip.

Mine very promising and several tons of horn silver bearing rock on the dump. Fair Vilia.-South drift on the 100 foot level Is 12 feet in length in hard blasting rock. Material begin ming to show mineral, giving fair assays. Nothing of importance encountered dur ing the week Everything working in a satisfactory manner-Head Center - Stopping is continued on the first level, and the ore body is holding out we'll
 About thirty tons of orc is hoisted daily and shipped to th3 mill on the river The steam hoisting works will be ready for business in few days, and then stopping 1 will be commenced between the second and third levels. The mill is being run at its fullest capacity, and the ore is work ing well. There is plenty of ore in sight and the mine IS m fine condition. - Grand Central Nothing has been struck as yet in the lower levels, but all the in dications point to an ore body in the inn mediate vicinity of the crosscuts. The ground is not so hard as formerly and better progress is being made. The stopes throughout the mine are looking good and the usual quantity of ore is be- ing shipped. -Epitaph.
