a Property That is Producing 1,20O
Tons of Ore Daily.
Perhaps no better illustration of min
ing push and enterprise could be cited,
says the Inter Mountain of Butte, Mon
tana, than that displayed in the NAM
moth improvements which are going
on at the Never Sweat nina. Two years
ago new hosting plant was erected
on this property and since then the
mine has been steadily increasing its
output, until today it ranks among the
first copper producers of the district
The present output is 1,200 tons daily,
or 600 tons for every shift The shaft
is 1900 feet deep and is connected
with the Anaconda at the 600-foot level
A few months ago an order was given
for the construction of a new plant
similar to that now being erected at
the Mountain Con. The new shaft
house and gallows frame are eighty
feet in height on the east side, and from
the western slope to the summit meas
ures an even 100 feet The old engine is
still working in its position at the
southern end of the big building while
the new one is being erected in the
northern part. The new frame is in
place and towers far above the top
pulleys of the old one, which will soon
be torn down. This Increased height is
made necessary by the introduction of
four-decked cages, which will raise
four tons of ore at each "Trip, thus doub-
ling the present hoisting capacity The
new engine is a double expansion hoist,
the high pressure cylinder measuring
44X72 inches and the low pressure 2Sx42
1t is called the ModOc and was built
this summer by the Union Iron Works
OF San Francisco. The foundation is
finished and the new engine frame is in
place, the crew being now engaged in
leveling the big reel, the main shaft
Of which IS twelve inches in diameter.
The work viii not be completed before
spring. Four pairs of boilers will be
added to the Anaconda steam plant. for
it furnishes steam for the Anaconda,
Never Sweat and St. Lawrence mines.
The total number of boilers will then
be fourteen pairs, or twenty-eight single
boilers. The old engine of the Never

renee to replace the one which went to
pieces a few weeks ago. The tempera-
ture of the St. Lawrence is much higher
than that Of the Never Sweat. and its
output is somewhat less. being about

GOLD IN DRY CANYON.
Average of Five Assays Shows SIPS

For several months past some quiet
but effective prospecting has been go
ing on in Dry Canyon, Hot Springs
mining district, a few miles northeast
Of this city, and the showing made has
been so favorable that in the near fu-
ture considerable heavy work Will be
done in that locality
Early in the spring, while prospect
ing in the canyon, veteran prospector
who goes by the euphoneous name of
AfiSesell. found some float that carried
good values, and he spent several weeks
in searching for the ledge before he
found it; and when he was successful
he demonstrated that it was blind
ledge, which was covered by several
feet of soil. Since making the discov-
cry Mr.. AIikesell has spent considerable
time in prospecting the ledge along its
strike, and in three places. some dis
lance apart, he has sunk three l0-foot
holes, and in doing so has disclosed
l2-foot body Of ore that assays As
ounces silver and LAO in gold to the
ton, while in the ledge there is a 2-foot
pay streak, which. according to an
average obtained from five assays, car
ries S4.2S in gold to the ton. The high
est of these assays went LIS ounces
silver and $40 in sold. while the lowest
gave returns of ounces silver and
$500 in gold.
The formation is a contact in lime and
quartzite, while the ore is a honey
combed quartz, which, besides its pre-
cious metal contents, carries So per
cent. in iron and 40 per cent silica.

now definitely known that the fog whis-

when the accident occurred, which is
admitted by the keepers, and who say
that it was due to the fact that the sup

become exhausted. For the past three

been silent for the same cause. This,
together with the ebb tide, threw the
pilot nearly a mile off his reckoning,
