Electricity. corps OF engineers
will be employed in
the work of surveying line from the
upper terminal of the main line to reach
the mines of Crystal and vicinity. The
line proposed will be operated by electric
Ity, and therefore can be constructed
upon steep grades and sharp curves.
With the opportunities for utilizing the
power Nature has stored in the volume
of Crystal River, the cost OF operating
would be reduced to the minimum. The
advantages of greatest value in an
electric liue over a steam railroad Is IN
the short curves and heavy grades which
enables the line to find route high up
on the mountain side above the path OF
snow slides, and would also overcome the
ruggedness of the mountains Of rarts
where it would not be possible to find
grade for steam railroad.

The Mineral Point Mining Company
have the plans outlined for year OF
aggressive mining operations, which will
be under way in a number of their prop
critics within the next few weeks. Work
will begin on the Carbonate, on Crystal
Mountain about the first Of June, and at
the same time on the Eureka, up near
the summit of Treasury. The Daisy will
also be a scene of action again, while the
Laura tunnel is being driven into the

Meadow Mountain. Hoffman Brothers,
the managers of the Mineral Point Com
pany deserve much credit for the able
manner in which the affairs of that cor

which will be yielding the stockholders

closed down last week because OF u

The Upraise connecting the middle and
upper tunnel OF the Burt mine will be
completed within few days and the
property is reported to be in very prom

be one Of the heaviest shippers of the
camp this year. and within the next sixty
days will inaugurate a season OF improve

The Laura tunnel has passed the three

with double shift. The location, size

Farewell.

Some OF the anonymous poetry of the

kan peninsula is beautiful and should be
bsttsr known. The following was one Of
Goethe's favorite poems. and was consid.
cred by him wonderful.
Against where Buda's walls a vine
Doth its white branches fondly twine;
Oh, no! it was no vine tree there;
1t was q fond, a faithful pair,
Bound each to each in earliest vow,
And, oh! they must be severed now.
And those their farewell words: 1--WE
part
Break from my bosom--break-my
heart!
Go to a garden, 60 and sec
Some rose branch blushing on the tree;
And from that branch rose flower tear,
Then place on my bosom bare,
And, as its leaflets fade and pine,
So fades my sinking heart in thine"
And thus the other spake: my love!
A few short PAGES backward move,
And to the verdant forest GO;
There's fresh water fount below;
And in the forest a marble stone,
Which a gold cup reposes on;
And in that cup ball Of snow,
Love, take that ball OF snow to rest
Upon thy heart within thy breast,
And, as it melts unnoticed there,
So melts my heart in thine, my dear"
