SOLVES WATER PROBLEM.
Joe Bowers Extension Company Pur-
chases a Pump.

The directors of the Joe Bowers EX-
tension Mining company held meet
ing yesterday afternoon to discuss the
water problem. Development work
was stopped at the mine a few days
ago on account of water coming into
the shaft, which, it is said, has risen
10 over thirty feet.
1t was decided at the meeting to pur-
chase a new pump. The machinery
will be supplied by a local machinery
firm and sent out 10 the mine today:
The pump will have the capacity of
raising 500 gallons of water per hour.
Manager Druehl said yesterday it
would be but a few days until the
company would be able to keep the
mine cleared of the disturbing element,
and the sinking of the shaft will be
resumed.
He says the present trouble has been
expected and anticipated for some
time. and partial arrangements had
been made for it.
Water has been encountered in all

Superintendent c. W. Watson Will in
auGurate work in the old shaft today
The channel has been broken into from
the drift off the lower tunnel. and
everything is now in shape to safely,
and it is hoped profitably, work the
mine.
MIR. Dern took advantage of his trip
TO make a brief inspection of the camp,
and what struck him as being most re-
markable was the fact that the dis
trict had been worked 50 long and
profitably practically without hosting
works The gentleman was amazed at
the immense amount Of tunneling and
other surface work in evidence. and eX-
pressed the belief that now new life
and energy was being infused into the
district it would prove bonanza camp
indeed.
Great activity, the gentleman said,
was in evidence at the United States
company's property, where many new
cottages were being built, old buildings
torn down and other improvements
were under way Mr.. Dern returned

outing.

MR.. FISCHER RETIREs.
Construction Department of High
land Boy Smelter Closed.

G. K. Fischer, having completed his
work, the construction department of
the Highland Boy smelter has been
closed This department was opened
up over year ago when the Highland
Boy was in the control of Samuel New
house and Thomas Weir. The plans for
the big plant now in operation to the
south of the city were drawn up in Mr..
Fischer's Office The building Of the
works was directed by him, and since
The fires were kindled and the furnaces
blown in, operations at the smefter
have been under his charge. Now that
the plant is working successfully and
all the construction work finished, there
is nothing more for Mr.. Fischer to do,
so the department has been abolished
and hereafter the operating of the
plant will be directed by Manager Po-
land and the superintendent of the
smelter, who is on the ground at all
times.
Mr.. Fischer retires to take a needed
rest, after a years arduous work,
which has greatly impaired his health.
He will leave with his family in a few
days for an outing in Yellowstone park,
after which he will return to Salt Lake
and engage in other pursuits.
