Tho Little Winnie shaft, of the Legal
Tender Company, has now reached depth
OF over 800 feet, and tho work in the bot
tom is becoming much softer, so much 30
that little shooting is required. But very
little water is met with, only about six
buckets per shift, and tho sinking Is pro.
ccedinS very fast. The indications In the
bottom at the present timc point to tho
fact that tho contact is being approached,
though we have considered that depth of
at least 45l feet would have to be obtaineds
before such result could be arrived at.--

| From March a4th to April 18th tho orc
shipped and sold from the Bushwhacker
mine brought slG, i.G.9i after paying sam-
pling, smelling and freight charges
to Denver. This is a pretty good showing
considering the condition OF roads and the
delays caused by putting a larger plant Of
machinery on the property during the
time. The company is placing its stock In
Aspen and Denver much faster than II
was expected. The average daily sales In
Aspen arc about 1000 shares and In Den
yer the same. Sixty days more Of such
good fortune the company will have all the
bonds lifted on the property and begin
paying dividends to the stockholders.-

which will probably run quito well In sill.
yer, us from the location OF this shaft, on
the north side of Fryer Hill, tho chances
are that the iron excess will! be quito con.
siderable. As mentioned In this journal
some time since, the works from tho main
shaft brought the Buckeye people over to
the east, and into the way Of argcntifcr-
Gus iron upon which they are now work
ing, when it was found expedient TO open
up the present shaft, for the greater facil.
itics afforded In the handling OF the ore.
There now appears TO bc large body Of
this iron at that point, and il this trial loi
proves 10 possess much commercial value,
IL will be thoroughly opened out and
