the seasons work brought to close.
The works have, under the circum-

The WoIftone mine, on Deer creek.
will probably go into more exten-
sive operation during the winter
than any other mine in the vicinity
Capt Berry, the superintendent. was
in town during the week, and we

into the ground forwhat tits worth.
There are at present about 500 tons
of good ore on the dump of this mine,
and no doubt this quantity will, by
the coming season, be greatly in
creased. All this ore is awaiting
q more profitable market looked for

The largest assembly at ball

in Ketehum, was witnessed at Davis
Hall last Friday evening. ketch-
umites hadn't had a dance for a
long time. and it needed only the

interested person TO bring them out
with a rush. They came, and the
quiet little "waltz" anticipated by a
few, Was the pleasure Of host.
