Mining Boom In Maine.

Ellsworth, Me-, Jan. 12.-There
seems to be every indication that
Eastern Maine is soon to enjoy a min.
ing boom, not of the effervescent ma
ture Of the boom Of the sos, when
most of the mining operations were
confined to the buying and selling OF
stocks and very little money was put
into serious development of mining
property, but this time as a serious
business.
The principal cause of the new
move in Maine is the establishment
of reduction works at Ellsworth,
designed to handle refractory and low
grade ores Of just the kind found in
this section OF the state.
