The Marquette Range.

Unless all signs fail the Nor
way mine Of the Penn Iron Mg.
Co., will send out n large quaint
ty Of ore this year. The begin
ming Of shipments is delayed by
the unfinished condition OF the
new loading tracks being put in
by the G. & N. w. 1t is
thought however that ore will
be going out by May first. Cur

The divers are pumping the
water from the old shaft at the
North mine, near Dexter, and
will explore the formation at
that point. A diamond drill is
also running in that vicinity
under direction of this company.
Mr.. j. r. Pascoe is working
at his property near Clowry,
and is finding ore OF excellent
quality in the pit being given
attention ut the northwest open
ing. Several tons broken there
this week show ore giving 64 per
cent iron and OIL PHOSPHORUS.
Mr.. Pascoe had a hard time max
ing progress during the winter
months, the heavy SHOWS and
storms interfering, but he is
doing better now, and expects
to soon have the deposit explor.
ed so as to be able TO Judge
better OF its size and quality.
Thus far Indications are of the
most encouraging,

Picking UP Good Men.

The Oliver Mining company
is as solicitious in picking up
good men as it is new and desir.
able properties. Every day,
almost, the announcement is
made that some man has accept
ed q position with the Oliver
mining company and if a person
takes the pains to look the men
over he will find that, on an
average. they constitute the
pick OF the land in the mining
world. OF course there are
many excellent mining men that
are without the fold OF the Oliver
company but, speaking In gener-
al terms. the young men that are
being attracted TO that corpora
ton are almost all OF promis
ing kind anl if the corps that 10
being developed now remains
together II will be but u few
years before their body Of men
will be the best in the land. A
good man Is as necessary as q
good mine, Anticipated fossils
are not being sought after
by the Oliver people. They are
picking mp young men of prom
Use. Mr.. Coles judgement of
mining men has always been
looked upon rs one OF the best.
His faculty Of gathering about
him good mining men has con.
tributed as much to his success
as has his own foresight and
energy, With the stability OF
position and the immense appor.
tuniiies for advancement offered
by the Oliver people, that com
pany has little difficulty in att
tracing the hest men Without
bidding over the heads of others

FROM THE MINES
The Mansfield.

tiC
Never in the history of this
property have matters looked
more encouraging than ut the
present time. In fact the oper
ators are SO pleased with the
outlook that they have decided
TO equip the mine with fine
new plant OF machinery, some
thing that it sadly needs. The
new plant has been ordered and
preparations are under way for
its installation at the mine. 1t
will be placed in the large brick
engine house just back OF the
present machinery, there being
plenty Of room. The plant will
consist OF q two drum hosting
plant and q compressor. The
drums are five and one half feet
in diameter and seven feet long.
They will be driven by two slide
valve engines the cylinders OF
which are l4x2i. The plant is a
first motion one, rapid and
heavy enough for all purposes
ut this property for years TO
come. The compressor is made
by the Allis people ut Milwaukee,
it heing their 'Leyner' machine
and having a capacity OF seven
teen No. 3 drills. It is com
pound engine the cylinders
measuring 2cx26. The air
chamber measures 22x26. 1t is
o first class machine in every re-
spect and will furnish all the
air that is needed at this proper
ty.
Underground the principal
attention is being given to
finishing up the development
work on the ninth level which
was added to the mine last
winter. This level is showing
much Improvement over The
eight. both rs TO the size OF the
A ~
ore body and the quality OF the
ore. On the seventh and eighth
levels the ore body had narrow
ed down to q width, in some
places of not more than four feet
and many pessimistic opinions
were passed upon the property
Mt that time but it seems that
the diorite has taken roll away
again and the vein has gone
back to an average width of six
teen feet while in places IT Is as
wide as thirty feet The ore
body has been opened up on It's
length a distance of 213 feet
and they are still pounding away
in the ore. The ore Is opening
up again to the north OF the
shaft. 1t will be remembered
by all those conyersant with the
property that on the sixth and
seventh levels the ore ip this
pnrt Of the mine-which by the
way constituted the main
bessemer part of the property
seemed 10 cut out. On the
eighth level it began to open vi
again and on the ninth level u
has already passed ITS largesl
recorded dimensions on the up
per levels. AS n sample oil the
