A shift Of two men Is sinking SHAFT
on the Spokane, which lies west OF the
Old Town and north of the PalO Alto.
Superintendent Nickersor reports
improvement in the Butte & Boston
and says the quartz fills the full breast
The superintendent Of the Palo Alto
Is sinking a shaft on the claim. He
reports that he Is making good prog
ress. The values, he says, are good.
The ledge is about eight feet wide.
There was some trouble last week at
the Chico, owing to the cold snap
Some of the pipes burst, which caused
the hoist to be shut down and work in
the drift to be stopped.
Superintendent Hodge Of the Prin-
cess Maud reports good progress on
that property. The winze Is down
about 1856 feet below the tunnel level
and the vein Is from four to Ave feet
wide.
The Gold Leaf tunnel contract is
nearly completed. The rock is very
hard The belief is expressed by the
engineer who made the survey Of the
tunnel that the ledge is likely to be en-
countered in tho next Is feet.
James Elliott was in from the Gold
Ledge mine and says that the vein on
that property was being intersected by
crOsscut from the south end of the
south drift on the 100 foot level, and
shows as good looking quartz as could
be found in the mine.
The San Juan drift is in 80 feet. The
walls are perfect and have shown no
evidence of fracture during the entire
distance the drift has been run. The
ledge is about five feet wide. but the
quartz is not more than 2h feet on the
average. Some Of the assays have
shown better values than $40 per ton
The Morning Glory mine is looking
we'll and producing very high grade
of ore. There are chunks of solid ore
weighing 20 or 30 pounds that carry
seams in which the gold is visible to
the naked eye. Work is progressing
favOrably with force of IL men.
There is no reason to change the opin-
ion often expressed that the Morning
Glory is mine, and is judiciously and
economically handled.
James p. Harvey has returned to Re-
public from Davis camp, on the South
Half, where he had been to restart ope-
rations on the Park and Central mine.
He let contract for $50 feet of work,
which force of men has already been
started on. A tunnel has already been
driven about 500 feet to tap the Park
and Central vein, and it has about 60
feet more to run. which is included in
the contract. The balance Of the 200
feet will consist in driving on the vein
in the most desirable direction, to be
decided on after it has been crosscut.
The tunnel will give about 200 feet of
depth on the vein, which crops at the
surface from 10 to Is feet in width.
The ore on this property runs chiefly
in silver and lead.

George II. Carter, the starter,
sent the three shells off in good or
der, aud one Of the prettiest races
ever seen here, took place.
The Myrtles we're apparently in
the lead when the boats reached a
point from which they could be
clearly seen between the starting
and finishing lines. At the boat.
house the Myrtles were still ahead
and many people started for the
train feeling sure OF the result and
anxious to secure seats. In the last
second the Healanis made a trem-
endous squirt and passed the finish
ing point, quarter OF length
ahead OF the Myrtles in 10 minutes
IA seconds.
After that no mortal could hear
or understand anything. A babel
OF tongues, yelling, singing, bowling
and talking was created and it last
ed until the train steamed into the
Honolulu station.
Everything went off in a most or
derly manner fact due to the ex-
cellent management of the regatta
committee, W. A. Wall, A. A. Will.
der, and John G. Lane.
Comparatively little money chang
ed hands, although heavy bets and
heavy odds were offered. The Hea.
lanis with good reason sang: Had
we only backed the winner, what
different men we would bel" but
they had to Le satisfied with the
honor this trip.
We have not referred to the Lei.
lanis because in spite OF several tele-
phone messages to Pearly City we
have been unable 10 learn whether
they have yet got up to the judges
stand.
The secret OF the winning by the
Healanis of the senior race is sim
ply that the Myrtle stroke A. F.
Judd is yet too much for the boys
who became exhausted in following
his long and powerful stroke which
he never abated for a second from
start to finish. Even if Judd had
called for squirt near the finish it
is doubtful whether his crew could
have responded. Mr.. Judd is the
fnest=oarsman we have seen here.

Mr., Cunha is not quoted correctly
by the Advertiser when he is made
to say that the Arlington premises
between Hotel and King streets
should be donated" by the Bishop
Estate to the public. What he
meant to say at least was that a
great benefit would be conferred on
the community il the Bishop Estate
would be willing to disposine of the
premises referred to, instead of leas-
ing or selling the lands to parties
who would crowd the beautiful
