FAULT OF THE LAW.
Massachusetts, 9th District Is Now
Without Congressman.

Boston. May 5.-Governor Crane sent
a message to the House, today, inform
ing the Legislature that there was nc
provision in the law as it now exists for
the filling of the vacancy in the 57th
Congress caused by the resignation OF
Congressman Moody of the 9th district
to take the office of secretary of navy.
In making the new apportionment
last year, the new act passed related
solely to the 5Sth Congress. The ,old
law was a the same time repealed, ano
consequently there is no existing
method of filing the place, and the 9th
district cannot choose new represen.

GOOD
PROGRESS
IN JUNE.
Big Five Company is Steadily at Work and
Results are Good.

Big Five Company is Steadily at Work and
Results are Good.
The Big Five company has appointed
w. B. Stewart general superintendent
and master mechanic of the Miami Min
ing and Milling company and the Edgar
Consolidated Gold Mining company, in
addition to his present position as super
intendent of the Big Five Central tunnel.
Good progress is being made at the
Central tunnel. The drive in June was
only 2oI feet, owing to the extremely
hard rock which was encountered On
account of this as much work was not ac-
complished as was anticipated. They
have also put in 24S feet of water box,
297 feet of four inch air pipe and $50 feet
of 10 inch circulating pipe. In addition
to this they have laid 73o feet of double
track, and 1900 feet of track which ex-
tends around the block and over the new
bridge, for the purpose of filling in the
approaches on each end of the bridge.
Few people estimate the amount of
work that will be required and the guam
tity of material to fill in the approaches.
Mr.. Stewart is of the opinion that 5000
cars of rock will be needed to complete
the work. The number of cars they take
out in month is from l, 100 to /, 200 so
1t can be seen that it will be two or pos
sibly three months before the bridge will
be opened for traffic.
This bridge, with the easy grade will
be, when finished, great improvement.
The grade is easy and ore haulers will
find it much easier than at the present
time.
During the month the company built
an addition to their blacksmith shop, and
another forge has been put in. This was
found necessary on account of the hard
rock which has been encountered. Some
days more than 200 drills are dulled in
each shift
In the Miami tunnel, the west drift is
to be crowded along as fast as possible to
connect with the Central tunnel. Just as
soon as the Central is reached there will
be an upraise of 24o feet, and the connec-
ton which is to made will give splendid
ventilation. Then all material will go
through Central tunnel
The ore in the drift of the Edgar is
still looking well and the indications are
that the streak which was struck last
week will widen.

Revenue Tax no More.

For the first time in four years, the
mining men and brokers of the state of
Colorado, are free from the burden of the
revenue law passed at the outbreak of
the Spanish American war.
On last Monday the brokers and others
were relieved of this tax and to say that
they were pleased is putting it mild. By
the provision of the law, brokers were
required to pay an occupation tax of $50
per year, because they were in that bust
ness. In addition a tax of 20 cents per
hundred shares was imposed on all stock
that was issued.
While the amount was considered by
the brokers as double taxation, they will
ingly paid their share, or probably more
than their share without any grumbling,
These two items resulted in Colorado
paying nearly $1,000, 900 towards the ex-
penses of the war, for a period of as
months.
On the floor of the exchange in Colo
RADIO Springs the brokers donated $2oo,-
600 in all through the sales made.
Denver and other places paid their share
of the tax.
Another item which was no small item
was the exchange dues. Every one in
terested in mining is glad that the tax is
taken off on all these items, and mining
men are rejoicing.

STRIKE
IN THE
TYPO.
-Four Foot Vein Opened up at Distance
of Thirty-five Feet. Assays 81 to Ton.

-Four Foot Vein Opened up at a Distance
of Thirty-five Feet. Assays 81 to Ton.
It begins to look as though the synda-
cate Of union printers which was formed
few weeks ago for the purpose of devel-
oping the Typo Mines and Tunnel COM
pany's property, has made good invest
ment
On last Friday, Manager J. J. Hoban,
of the company, brought to the city a
large piece of ore which wins taken from
the vein of the Every Other Day lode.
The strike was made late in the afternoon
and the vein was encountered at dis
tance of about thirty-five feet.
The vein is four feet wide, and gives
assays of 81 to the ton. The quartz is
gold bearing and is of fue quality.
The vein was encountered in the breast
of the tunnel and as development con-
tinues the ore is being sorted and put
away.
There is large smelling streak, and
the proposition is easily worked.
AS soon as arrangements are made for
the construction of tue mill, which this
company intends to erect in the near fu-
ture, the ore from the Every Other Day
will receive treatment. Manager Hoban
is authority for the statement that it
would pay for treatment al the present
time if the company owned its own mill.
1t is expected that the next vein will
be cut inside of two weeks, at which time
the Father of the Chapel vein will be en-
countered.
The printers interested in this enter
prise are highly elated over what has
been accomplished, and as a result the
sale OF stock has been large.
The Typo tunnel is situated on Santa
Fe mountain, where little prospecting
has been done of late years. The richest
float ever found in this district was in
this locality, but owing to the fact that
many of the properties have been tied up
in litigation, development has been de-
layed.
The result of this strike has had tend
ency to revive interest in the district and
many are attempting to make arrange
ments for the working of other properties
on Santa Fe.
Idaho Springs siftings., 1902-07-05

The company is now working in both
properties about fifty men. In order to
encourage the miners, a system of pre-
miums has been adopted This results
in every man doing his utmost to forward
every department, as the more a miner
does, the bigger is his pay check. This
is in addition to the regular pay.
1t appears the Big Five company ap-
preciate the work of Mr.. Stewart, their
superintendent. Unlike many superin-
tendents he is at the mine all the time,
and no one works harder or accomplishes
more for the same amount of time than
he does.

The funeral of Mrs. Mary Griffiths,
wife OF VIM. Grifiths, who died last Fri

last Sunday afternoon from the Metho-
dist church, Rev. Coffman officiated.
The services were under the auspices
of the order of Mocabees, and were
largely attended.
Mrs. Griffith was we'll known in this
city. She was the daughter of Chas.
Arthur, one of the pioneers of the Clear
Creek district, and man who is highly
spected by all who know him. AL
most from her infancy, Mrs. Griffiths had
been resident of this city, and left for
Victor only a short time ago. She was
the mother of six children, the oldest of
whom is eighteen years and the young
est six.
Mrs. Griffiths had not been well for
some time, and her death was due to
heart failure, superinduced by typhus
fever. She was lovely woman, good
wife and devoted mother. The sympa-
thy of the entire community goes out to
her husband and father and children in
