dependence tunnel in North Cani 20

ductiou OF rich copper ore being taken
out Of this tunnel. Mr.. A. j. IIurker
Is managing the work and has four hands
working full time and making headway
Of to , peet per day, penetrating the
sandstone which holds the copper. AT
the present time the tunnel is l50 feet
in the mountain and producing from 200
TO 500 pounds of ore per day that will
assay anywhere between 500 to 5000
per ton. Mr.. Ilarker, last week, sent
out fur tons to Lamar aud in q few
days will send out Two lots more, max
ing n car load Of II tons. This will be
shipped to Pubic on a 81 a ton rate.
The mine is paying a handsome profit
over and above all expenses. The haul
ing 90 miles is big expense. The Car
riso seems 10 be bound to come to
the front Notwithstanding the adverse
reports from numerous experts CD who
have been scut in there by rich mine
owners to make reports on the formation
and prospect.

SUMMER SONG.

The summer down the garden walks,
Swept in her garments bright;
She touched the pale still lily stalks
Aud crowned them with delight;
She breaibed upon the roses bssi
And filled it's heart with fire.
And with II golden carpe, spread
The path Of my desire
The larkspurs stood like sentinels
To greet her as she came;
Son rang the Canterbury bells
The music Of her name;
She leaned into the hnppy land
Where all dear dreams flower free,
She took my true love hy the hand
And led bcr out ic me.
