pumps the water that comes from
the jacket back into the tank from
which it first came. This tank is
furnished with many tiers of Stats
which allows the water to percolate
through them and cool before again
going into the jacket. AS water is a
scarce article this method was de-
vised to make the least possible
quantity serve the greatest end.
The next point of interest was the
pumping plant. This is located down
the hill from the smelter distance
of about two miles. Driving there
we found General Manager Batter
man up to his elbows in work. An
incline has been sunk and cribbed
here to depth of go feet, and an inn
mense pump is stationed here which
forces the water through a 4-inch
pipe distance of 1000 feet and to
an elevation of $50 feet into $4,000
gallon tank on the hill above the
smelter. The company has been
bothered some in securing water on
account of Quicksand in the bottom
of the incline, but this obstacle will
doubtless be overcome. In fact water
was put into the large tank last
Monday.
At short distance from the smelt-
err a large and commodious boa riding
house has been constructed. At the
mine and smelter both there are
blacksmith and carpenter shops,
while along the canyon between the
two points there are numerous
bunk-houses for the men. The CON-
pany is now contemplating erecting
several cottages for the accommoda-
tion of men with families who will
be employed about the works, and
in all proba bility store will soon be
established close to the works. In
fact quite little town will spring
up in this vicinity.
Although the company has had
hold of the Bluestone mine for little
over year, no outside work to
speak of was done until about three
months ago, when the company had
developed the mine to an extent
where it was considered that suffi-
cient ore was in sight to warrant
the building of smelter. There
fore, all this outside work has been
done in the last three or four months.
From IS to $50 men have been en-
pl. yed. and the vast amount of work
accomplished in this time shows that
there have been hustlers at the head
of affairs.
At rough estimate we should
judge that over 100000 had been
expended on this property up to date.
The smelter was to have started up
this week as soon az water could be
pumped, and rs water was in the
tank Monday, the trial or initial run
is probably now being made. The
managers estimate that they have
ore enough in sight in the mine to
run the smelter for three years at
the lowest calculation, and should
the mine show up at 500 feet as it
does at 400 feet the capacity of the
plant will be doubled or thribbled
and there will be plenty of ore to
keep things humming for the next
twenty years.

OBITUARY.


Hon. John ID. Hopkins, Ellsworth,s
grand old man., as he has been known
for several years, died at 30 O'Clock this
morning. Mr.. Hopkins has been con-
lined TO his house for the past three or
four weeks with the grip, but up to few
days ago he seemed to be improving. His
advanced age. however, was against him.
The grip left him In a debilitated con-
dition, and the enfeebled heart fiuttered
few days and then ceased to beat
With its last beat there passed out Of this
life ons OF the most conspicuous and
prominent figures in Ellsworth's bust
ness, political and social world for more
than half a century.
MIR. Hopkins died as he had wished
peacefully, happy, quickly. He rose this
morning, walked down stairs without
assistance "a erect as ever In his life, and
was seated In his chair before his shaving
glass when he dropped asleep.
Mr.. Hopkins was born In Ellsworth
Feb. 10, 1877, while Maine was yet part
OF Massachusetts,. His parents were John

father was native of Cape Cod, des-
cendaut of the Stephen Hopkins who
came over In the "Msy fiower". Mr.. Hop
kins, the senior, came to Ellsworth in a
coasting vessel; he saw the possibilities
OF the place, and settled here. Ellsworth
was then a small village. Mr.. Hopkins
prospered through transactions In real
estate and became one of the leading citi-
zens. He was sheriff a number OF years.
He died I'm 1910.
John ID. Hopkins, the subject of this

gan active work on his fathers farm, and
then In numbering. This business he
followed for many years, becoming ex.
tensively engaged. He retired about
twenty years ago.

STRUCK ZINC.
Operators at Deer Isle Mine Strike a
Rich Vein.

Opcratofs at .Jeer Isle Mine Strike q
Rich Vein.
special from THE AMERICANS cor
respondent at Stonington Saturday says
that George Holden, who recently re-
opened the Deer Isle silver mine at Dun
hams point, on Fridsy, struck vein
OF zinc five and one-hslf feet wide,
and said to be very rich.
The despatch was shown to representa-
tives OF the Boston Reduction Co., at
Ellsworth, for which the mine is being
worked. They had received no news of
the strike direct, but previous reports
had been encouraging, and they were not
surprised at the telegram.
The ore from the Deer Isle mine will
come to Ellsworth. The plant OF the re-
duction company is nearing completion,
and 1t was said at the mill Monday that
the plant would be in operation in about
month.
The principal work that remains to be
done is the setting up OF dynamos and
filtering machines, which we're shipped
Monday.
