THE BIG LODE AND THE IDAHO
CONSOLIDATED.

Steve 0glesby, the man who so
successfully conducted the ophir
mine while under his superintend-
ency, came over from Atlanta Tues
day on business connected with the
Big Lode mine at that place, and OF
which valuable property he Is now
the manager. The Big Lode. as its
name implies, is one Of the largest
lodges and noted claims of the grand
old Atlanta camp. The company
years ago erected a fine mill ada
cent to the lode, but, like too many
other companies, soon thereafter sus-
pended operations. They now pro-
pose to resume work upon a
more economical and judicious plan.
Mr.. Oglesby is arranging to run a
tunnel from near the mill into the
mountain, which at distance Of 400
feet or less will tap the big ledge at
least 400 feet below the groupings.
A short tramway is to extend from
the mouth Of the tunnel to the mill
hoppers, thereby handling the ore
but once from mine to mill. As
soon as tools and supplies can reach
the mine-which will be but a few
days-Mr. Oglesby will put on three
shifts of miners and push the tunnel
with all possible speed.
Mr.. Oglesby also has been placed
in charge Of the Idaho Consolidated
Compony's group Of valuable mines,
located near the Ophir, and he tells
US that this company is arranging
matters with a view of resuming
work at an early date.
