Mining Notes.

Del Monte-The prospects at this
mine continue to look very encourage
ing. In running the east drift at the
depth of 200 feet from the surface, the
ore chimney pinched out after extend
ing distance of 200 feet. The drift
was continued however, and after run
ming 10 feet further narrow seam of
rich ore was encountered. This has
widened out to a foot in thickness, and
still widening. 1t looks as if a new ore
body had been struck, and of higher
grade than any heretofore encountered.
The mill has not been started yet, the
intention is to wait until there is
enough rock in sight to run steadily.

1900 foot level last Friday, another OF
those rich ore deposits for which this
mine has been famous was encountered.
This pocket is reported to be richer
than any heretofore found. Over hall

taken out in two or three days. The
aggregate value will run away up in the
thousands, although anything like 1.-THE
exact figures cannot be given at pres

is said to be brighter than ever.

MUTTON CHOPS TOASTED.

When the chop has been cut and
trimmed, hold it on toastng fork,
close TO a very hot, clear fire for Il min
ute in order to scar the outside very
quickly; turn the chop and treat the
other side in the same manner, thus
forming a sort of Il crust to retain the
juice Of the meat, which is so valuable
to invalids and children. but which
through careless cooking-is 50 often al
lowed to run to waste. The chop must
now be held a little further from the
fire where it may be cooked more slowly.
The meat must not on any account be
at all burnt, yet it must certainly be
cooked thoroughly. to the very centre.
In about fifteen minutes il will be done
sufficiently, having been turned twice or
thrice during the time. Care must be
taken never to insert the toasting fork
into the lean part of the meat. but just
into the rim of fat round the edge. Make
slice of dainty, crisp toast, cut it in
finger pieces and arrange these cross
wise on n hot plate; lay the chop upon
the toast. sprinkle over it a little salt
and pepper and serve Immediately.
