&nt few of those acquainted With , the extent nt tAe TuP,ivtOge Mining l Gistriet, but win admit that within i its zon2 the extent and richness Of its deposits, whether compact or wide srrtad'as tlrey may be proven to be, as so few practically Qnexplored and .lnknown:
 i Tee cilloridar has dune much to deepen this feeling, as he goes to work in a way very different from the man who obtains days pay from any company or corporation: He saves ali the ore he cam he strips his ledge carefully and does not mix Il with waste to be thrown on tha dump, where 1t will remain until some enter prising man offers to clear away the said dump for the carriage of the same. It therefore follows that chlorider being so great an economiser of a mining claim ought to be encouraged and even the leasing of favorable mining locations to increase, there Is nothing that would so help to render permanent this mining camp. and keep it going on Il satisfactory basis.
 During the past week nothing of d decidedly important nature has tran spired; the developments on several promising claims proceed apace, and are proving to be of greater import ance to the owners than were at first thought
 The smelter below town has been shut down, pending the arrival of the manufactures, in order that he may satisfactorily prove the working of the came. It strikes Us however We have some very practical smelters in town, and were Dennis McCarty or Johnny Grossbeck to have the running of the outfit for ten days, they would have it going regularly if anyone could.

As soon as this is completed. the starting of the pumps will be in order, and if the question of "concert of action" referred to in last weeks report is settled, no time can tlapse before he pumps start up.
 CONTENTION.
 Some few more men have been em- ployed here during the last week, and work progresses. About 20 tons of ore are daily shipped to the mill, which is kept running on this, as well as on the tailipgs of which goodly tonnage still remains to be worked.
 I'M. & M. co.
 Mir. Cheney informs us that every thing continues in regular course.
 The Girard mill is still drawing its supplies of about so tons daily from the Toughnut .. inc, and no 0iminu- tion in work has anywhere taken place.
 The coneentrators it is expected will be ready to set regularly to work in May 1st, which will somewhat in- crease the force on the company's pay roll. They have lots of work to ac- cOmpllsh and will doubtless be one of the permanent sources of profit to the company.
 At the West Side mine the flow of water has not diminished and in con- sequence no further sinking of the mAln working shalt is possible. On the Owls Nest, one of this com panys southerly properties, being one of those now run by Gus Barron, a , fresh body of ore has beer met with this last week through which they have run IF feet without getting through it.
