BETTER
MACHINERY IN NEW RAMBLER
SHAFT THAN IN THE
OLD.
New Ore House Nearly Completed and
Appliances for Preventing Freez-
ing of Ore in the Bins are Work
ing-Douelas Mine a Rival of the
Rambler-Notes from the Mines.

The new ore house at the New Ram
bier mine is nearly completed, and
will be ready for business in about
two weeks, says the Grand Encamp-
ment Herald. The house is 30x60 feet
and three stories high. The lower
floor will be used for a boiler room,
the second for the storing of the ore
and the third for sorting.
A. big boiler has been installed, and
pipes are being placed through the
bins. 1t is necessary to moderately
heat the bins in order to keep the ore
from freezing. The ore is being TAX
en- from below water level, and if al
lowed to freeze would not run out
through the spouts. Wagons Or sleds,
as the case may be, are loaded from
either side of the ore house.
Thirty men are TO- employed at
the mine, and as soon as the ore
house is completed eight or ten more
men will go to work. At present only
about thirty tons of ore are being
hoisted each day, but with the compile
ton of the house, the daily output will
be increased to one hundred tons.
Most Of the ore is coming from the
old workings, but is being taken
through the crosscut into the
shaft and there hoisted to the surface.
The new shaft has much better ma
chinery than the old one.
The first shipment on sleds for this
is about two feet of snow from the
mine to the transfer, from which place
the ore is brought to the smelter or
wagons. The Rambler has thousands
of tons of ore in sight.
