Mrs. Migrate Leasch recently made a
good strike in the Elida lode. While the
streak is small at present values are high
and the indications favorable for a large
body of ore.
Members of the A. o. o. P. gave a
dance and supper last Saturday night.
The proceeds will be used to create sick

The Caveron Mining company is
building an addition to the Carmon mill
which will double its capacity. This
mill is running constantly on the ore
from mines owned by the company.
Lawson & Lerchen, leasing on the ST.
James, report nine-inch streak of high
grade smelling ore and twenty-four inches
of milling. This strike was made some
two weeks ago and has improved daily.
The S. and S. Co. have cut the Tabor
shaft through the Tabor tunnel and the
property completely unwatered. The
flow of water was very great and for a
few hours the united efforts of about forty
men was necessary to keep the water
confined to the gulch.

Two Games Sunday.

Two ball games are scheduled for Sum
day afternoon. The first will be played
at one o'clock and the other will follow
Immediately.
Manager Rowe received challenge
from the South Denver's, asking for a
game tomorrow afternoon. 1t will be
remembered that this team played the
home nine two weeks ago, but no finish
was had for the reason that the visiting
team had to return on the afternoon
train. Tomorrow the game will be started
an hour earlier. This contest promises to
be interesting as the teams are about
evenly matched.
For some time past the grocers have
had the idea that they were twirllers, and
with this end in view they have devoted
all their spare time to practice. The
butchers heard of this, and they too have
been quietly getting in shape. A chal-
lenge was issued by the grocers and ac-
cepted by the butchers.

Humboldt Hill.

Sunday, May 18th, about two and a
half feet of snow fell on Humboldt hill
which pave the appearance of winter,
but as it was very dry the snow was very
acceptable and has started the vegetable
kingdom on its move toward spring.
The Silver Horn mine is busy under
the able management of our Joe Boyd in
getting the wagon road in good shape
down the gulch to the tunnel, so they
can haul the Leyner air drills to their tun-
mel, which they are now ready to install,
for the purpose of taking out the big
body of ore that they recently opened up.
The activity in this locality in mining
has caused a scarcity in cabins to accom-
modate the miners, also the creek as a
summer resort is having demand on the
vacant cabins for the summer, as there
are quite a number of Denver people
coming up to spend the summer hot
months.
The Iron Crown mine has struck streak
of valuable ore and is being worked with
full force. Ore is being sorted and ship
ping will begin this week. This property
is managed by Harry Moore, and he re-
ports that from now on the Iron Crown

tended with great expense, and only the
rich veius could be worked with any
profit. With the advent of railroads,
good wagon roads, reduction works and
mills, ores valueless in the olden times
are today valuable and yield profit
when managed with the same prudence
and intelligence granted other industries.

review of the early history of the Hettie

mel, and visit to the workings would be
of interest to anyone.
Work on the Central tunnel is being
pushed along at a good rate, being driven
an average of eight and third feet day.
About twenty five men are employed in
and around the tunnel, dump tracks and
ditch. A new track is being put in
around the block from First to Second
avenue, and Miner street to Colorado,
thence west to top of archway. This is
done in order to get over the arch, SO
that the space can be filed in and a
county bridge erected. When the bridge
is erected the company will tram across,
50 that they can fill in on the south side
approach.
The old 5o-horse power induction
motor has been taken out, and many
changes have been made in their origi-
nal three-phase I3o-horse power genera
tor, making it so that it can be used as
being used as a generator to be run by
water, and will run the compressor and
blower at the same time. In order to rid
the tunnel of smoke after blasting when
the air is furnished by the compressor for
drilling, the full capacity of water is used,
helping out the lack of power from the
Seaton Mountain Electric company, and
using the generator as a synchrorous
motor. This is accomplished by means of
electrical devices, the result being that all
times the full capacity OF water is util-
lied.
The water Leyner air drills are used in
the tunnel, and no time is lost in push
ing the work. The tunnel is about IoxIo
feet and enough extra space is allowed in
the bottom, which forms ditch one foot
deep by two feet wide. The tracks are
double and of the 74-inch gauge. The
ventilating pipe is now in 600 feet and is
of the Io-inch size. Air is furnished by a
2o-horse power motor, belted to No. 6
Root blower. BY using a triple pole
double-throw switch the motor is re-
versed, thus causing the air to be blown
in or exhausted as required.
The air pipe for drills is four inches
and all pipes are hung overhead. Elec-
trio wires are connected to the lighting
system for blasting instead of using a
battery, thus making the current much
stronger and giving assurance that all
the shots will go off. Later on these same
wires will be used for telephone line, by
system of switches when the breast of
the tunnel is in little further. A station
has been cut at 600 feet from the portal of
the tunnel, which is.used by the men
while shooting,

| PUSHING The GREAT
| CENTRAL FOR COLD
Big Five Now In
Nearly One Thou
sand Feet With Rich
Prospects :. ;. =.

Quite a number of small veins have
been passed, and it is expected to soon
encounter a vein that surface indications
gave promise of being valuable. The
bore is now in 900 feet, and it is expect
ed that about 225 feet more will be made
this month, if work continues at the
present rate. The mine is closed down
on Sundays. AT present the rock is
white spar and is very hard to drill. But
this does not slack up the progress. The
Big Five company is well prepared to
take care of any difficulties that may
arise. very serious accident would
have to occur to cause them to lose a
shift. For instance, if the mill ditch
should fail them by breaking, as it has
done several times in the past, the cleo
trio power would be used. If the cleo
tricity went back on them they could call
on nature and use the old-fashioned
water pressure. Enough water is at hand
to furnish 100 pounds of pressure to the
square inch. From 1870 to 40 pounds of
air pressure is used, which drives the lit
tie water Leyners at vigorous rate.
The heads of the Big Five are business
men, and have all the push and energy
needed in an enterprise of this kind.
They never do things by halves, and any
thing they take hold of is crowded to the
limit.
The reason that such a rush is being
made is to get under the rich veins as
soon as possible. These veins are not far
off at the present time, and the managers
realize that the sooner they are cut the
sooner dividends will be paid.
As soon as these results are accomplished
Idaho Springs and the entire district will
be benefited. The promoters will not
be downed and they will continue to
work year in and year out until the ore
is landed at the mill in this city and
thousands of dollars are disbursed to the
stockholders.
1t is the intention of the managers to
make test of the cyanide treatment.
Manager Stewart is much interested in
the new process and says that some time
in the near future he will have a test
made of few thousand pounds.
The Big Five association is to be con-
graduated upon having secured the SER
vices of such an able manager as Mr..
Stewart He has furnished figures which
will be seen in another column of Siftings
showing that the cost of driving the Big
Five tunnel is being accomplished at a
cost much less than any other tunnel in
the state. The property is in first-class
shape and every one is as busy as can be.
The men take an interest in the property
and strive to do their best.

Flag day is looked forward to bv the

Central Labor Union.

National Secretary Carrick, of the
Brotherhood of Painters and Decorators,
at a meeting held with the local Painters
Union in the Building Allied Council Hall
yesterday afternoon, advised the painters
20 withdraw from Central Labor Union. He
said the central body is controlled by prin-
tiers and cigar markers and that they have
no sympathy for the building trades. He
said the Painters Union is paying S24 OOo
a year TO the printers and in turn is re-
ceiving the cold shoulder" He also said
the printers were assisting the wOodworkers
10 wreck the Painters Union.
A special meeting of the painters was
called yesterday afternoon TO hear the
national officers explain the agreement en-
tered into between the National Union of
Painters and the International Union of
Woodworkers over trade Jurisdiction The
agreement gave the painters Jurisdiction
over all hardwood finishing. 1t is charged
that woodworkers are doing finishing work
for the School Board and have violated
the agreement The central body has shown
a disposition 20 favor the woOdwOrkers
which has engendered a feeling between
that body and the Building Council.
