The Silver King company have purchased the Blk shaft and hoistl ing works and will use the same for pump and air shaft. They are now at work putting n She necessary piping and connecting the same with the works at the King mine. As soon as this is finished the Blk shaft will be pumped out and drift run to q connection with the lowest work ings of the King. This will drain the King of all it's water and will also create a draft that will keep the air in the King good at ali seasons of the year. It will also enable them to holst great deal more ore, as large portion of their time is new used in hoisting water After this is done d pipe line will be put in to connect the Blk shaft with the pipe line above town and thus be able to use the water out of the mine at the mill here. The capacity of the works here is to be increased shortly by the addition of more pans and  concentrating tables. A large new boiler is now on the road and will be placed in mill as soon as 1t arrives.-Pinal Record.

Latest news from the Mammoth is to the effect that the ledge sunk upon is eight feet wide at the 800 foot level. At the surface the sama ledge was four feet. The shaft sunk is 5x7 feet, and too narrow for working so large body of ore. A cut is being made at the lower level which indicates more work there, and drift is probably con templated. Outside parties inform us that the bottom ore assays an average of $25 to the t0n.
 There are over 1909 tons of ore in the bins at the surface, and some 5000 tons knocked down Tn the mine.
 We still think that the increase in stamps, further drifting in the mine, and all other contemplated improvements will be made before the mill is again set in motion.

MISINTERPRETED

EdjtOr LmWcnS idrcrfiscr.-I
noticed in your last paper an edit
orjal, in which you say:
"Thc idea prevails t0SOmc extent.
that learning disqualifcs Il boy for
manual labor, and young men are
taught that they must either choose
work or study, never for a moment
thinking that these two could be
combined"
| am glad to see YOU advocate a
manual labor school. That is what
we need and that is what Mr.. Till
man is after.
READER.
The abOv" extract from THE AD-
NEIpTISER does not refer to manual
labor schools. Indeed we had no
such institution in mind when
the article was written. The idea
intended is, that some men seem
to think that the exercise of mus
Gle, to an educated man is dcgra-
ding. There are those who think
that because a boy is so fortunate
as to receive an education, ne must
choose some of the walks of life
where only the brain is exercised.
This is a mistake. The demand
to day for educated men on the
farms, in the shops, behind the
counters and'in all such avocationy,
is urgent. The reason why many
farmers no not succeed better Is
because they do not educate them
selves in their profession. When
IL man leaves college he has only
prepared the foundation upon
which his education should rest,
and simply because he follows q
pillow, Is no 81 why all mental
Improvement should cease. No
man is so much engaged in manual
labor, but can find many spare
moments in which.tostor away val
