severe cold spell with II recent heavy
snowstorm which set in yesterday

progress In disclosing good ore bodies
in ground heretofore supposed to be
barren. Things look first rate, says
he, despite the depressed condition OF
the stock. and each days work adds
to the value of the Northern Light
mine.
Speaking of conditions in general on
Lion Hill Mr.. Hines says times are
quite brisk there, the locality being
characterized by no small amount of
activity. The Chloride Point is push
ing away at IA vigorous pace, and al
ready all the machinery for the COM
