Mr.. Hayes the following question:

"Do you know of any work being done

Model and Maps Introduced.
A glass model and number of maps
were among the new features introduced
in the case this morning. The glass model,
which was in wooden box, open at the
top and on both sides, was a handsome
constructions 1t consisted OF series OF
vertical glass plates each representing
cross-section, and the observer looked
through the model as If looking into
the mountain to the west the model en-

looking through the five planes OF cross

painted lines and figures on the glass, the
scheme Of the model being to give trans
parent structure representing the contents
Of the disputed ground.
The model was much admired by the
observers and was voted a very ingenious
and forcible illustration of the physical
situation in the Pennsylvania claim, which
is being presented to the attention OF the
court,
Cross-Section Map.
A big cross section map OF the Pennsyl-
vana mine, showing the workings, veins
and faults in the earth, was hung up first.
This map and the model as WELL differed
immensely from the maps put in evidence
by Heinze.
Heinzc's ross-sections and other maps
showed the Johnstown discovery vein,
otherwise called the "a raise vein and the
blanket vein, stretched through the Penn
sylvania claim on fiat dip, and across
it, and made it appear that all the other
ore bodies in the claim came up under that
vein on a sleeper dip.
The Boston & Montana's model and
maps give the Johnstown vein the same
din as other of the ore bodies and sent 1t
down into the earth between the old veins
included in Judge Clancy's injunction ard
