of the Little Matte have been con

of the tunnel ahead to intersect the
Matte Newton vein. This will be a
splendid thing for the Little Matte con-
pany as il will furnish drainage for a large
portion. If not all of the vein fer con
siderable distance, and when connection
is made with one Of the drifts from the
Matte mine the ventilation will be of the
best. The tunnel will cut the vein at a
depth of nearly goo feet from the surface,
and through it all Of the milling and
smelling ore can be taken, saving the
cost Of hoisting. The milling ore may be
trammed directly to the mill without
handling. The Matte Newton is capable
of produ .ing an enormous tonnage
and the Star tunnel is most favorably
situated for the handling Of the pro-
duct. Il is situated midway ietween
the Newton and the Matte shafts. and
connection with both Of these mines
would be of an immense advantage. Just
