Otto Russell Meets with Accident.

Last Saturday while working with
some horsess and mules at his fathers
home, Otto Russell, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. G. Russell, received painful injuries
by being kicked on the left arm and
shoulder by a mule as he was leading an
other animal by it. Otto's left arm was
broken below the elbow, the bones being
badly shattered. The kick on the
shoulder was comparatively light, the
hoof of the animal only grazing the
young man. He is receiving every atten-
tion and doing well, though his injuries
are very painful. His many friends will
regret to learn of his misfortune and
wish for him speedy recovery.

benefit in every particular.
1t is a peculiar pleasure to Prof. HOl-
ioway to return to Walhaiia and mingle

mately associated number of years ago,

to the younger generation of teachers in

fitable.

 All of the diamond drill operations have been carried on from the 300- foot level This is 300 feet below the cellar of the shaft. which is on a horizontal plane with the lower tun- nel. as already mentioned. At this level a drift has been driven under the mountain 1.117 feet.
 No. 1 drill hole was driven verti- cally from the bottom of the shaft to a depth of 360 feet below the work ing point or 660 feet from the collar of the shaft. The drill was then withdrawn and removed to No. 8 drill hole, in the drift. When discon- tinued a month ago, No. l hole was in lime.
 No. urill hole was started hori- zontally from the breat of the 300 foot drift, driving in the same course in which the drift is running, under the mountain. This hole is now in 669 feet horizontally from the breast of the drift, or 1,7s6 feet from the shaft. It is still being continued.
 It has passed through a vein of mixed iron and porphyry recently and has again entered into lime, the same as it had been passing through be- fore the porphyry and iron was cut.
 No. drill hole was started in the 30O-foot drift at a point 775 feet from the shaft and was driven vertically. It passed through lime for a distance of 456 feet and then cut presumably the same porphyry and iron formation as has been encountered laterally in No. ? drill hole. It has passed into lime again and was discontinued at a depth of 52O feet from the sole of the level.
 This woulc indicate that this fcrma- ton is pitching from the top of the mountain to the valley almost parallel with the surface of the mountain side upon which the Higgins surface wcrk Is located The drill passed through the porphyry and iron and again en- tered the limestone. similar to the re- suit in No ? drill hole.

 No. l hole should encounter the same porphyry and iron formation as has been disclosed in Nos. ? and 3, If he lay of the ground proves to be in accordance with the theory that has heen formulated. If the formation is so disclosed, it will go a long way toward establishing the soundness of the theory that the porphyry and iron belt is following the incline of the mountain can be quite satisfac- torily answered the result will serve as an important guide in laying out the policy of development for the Hig- gins operations.

A meeting of the directors of the | Higgins Development company was
 ned in Houghton yesterday. Presi 1 dent N. F. Leopold of Chicago beins
 present. The latest maps and reports
 rom the property were submitted anc
 m account given of the encounterins
 of ere at greater depth in the same stringer in which it was found before
 It was determined at the meeting
 that a committee consisting Of mem oers of the board of dire ,r1,s shouId
 visit the property of ;he company within short time for the purpose oi making an examination and rrepar. ing report, which will be submitted
 o the stockholders at the annual meet ing which occurs in the middle of May. The members of this commit tee have not yet been named.
 Operations at the Higgins at pres ent are carried on at three points. Two of these consist of driving dia- mond drill holes and the third is the opening at sub level from the winze which connects the upper and the lower tunnels.
 The lower tunnel is on the same horizontal plane as the collar of the shaft and is 275 feet below the plane Of the upper level Connecting these two tunnels is an incline winze which follows down through an encouraging formation. The ore which was en- countered some weeks ago was con- tained in a stringer cut in this winze. A sub-level drift was carried in on this stringer the ore being disclosed in this manner This ore pinched out and work at that point was dis continued.
 Another sub}evel drift was then started at point 50 feet lower in the same winze. According to advices by mail, received Wednesday. ore has been cut. in the same stringer at this evel. This shows the persistency of he cupriferous ore for that depth and establishes to a greater degree the importance of this stringer as a lead which is worth following.
 The formation at present surround ng the ore in the stringer is not right Or big deposit But it is looked upon Is a medium which may guide the operations to a valuable body. The ore consists of mixture of sulphides,
