Highland is the leading drybone pro-
Queer
The Ross jack wagons run as regu-
larly as trunk line trains.
Within the past week there has been
an extra good find of lead at the Home
site.
Work is advancing with each day in
preparing for the installment Of mill
and other machinery at the Liverpool.
Splendid bodies of ore are being en-
countered by workmen engaged in sink
ing shaft for the Vivian company.
They'll soon, if not already, be down to
where drilling was good.
According to present prospects it
won't be long before the anxiously look
editor depth is reached in shaft sinking
at the Chief of Police that is to where
the excellent jack cuttings were found
Specially high testing cuttings from
the drillings on the Jackson farm, about
six miles northwest of here is the latest
report from that quarter. This property
is under lease of Mineral Point parties.
There's great activity at the Temby
mine putting in machinery, etc. A pump
was put to work on the old copper shaft
and quickly cleared it of water From
this shaft workmen will proceed extend
| ing drifts, so it is understood.
The Trio is preparing to work the
body of rich disseminated ore, COM
mencing at the east boundary line of its
property. 1t could not be opened up un-
til the water was pumped out, enabling
men to clean out the adit or level
Yesterday morning shaft sinkers on
the Little property, a short distance
west of this city, came onto splendid
sheet of lead, estimated from five to six
inches thick. The property is leased by
DIR. Parmley of this city and others.
Shaft sinking is not the only work be-
ing done at the Harris. Last week the
drill was sent deeper than any time
heretofore and extra good cuttings were
brought to the surface as result. 1t is
the prediction of many that one or more
mines of special worth will yet be open
ed up hard by our city on the east.
Nearly 700 hands are now employed
at the mines at Linden, Rewey, Miff1in,
and Livingston, and about 200 men who
eat and sleep in Mineral Point are daily
employed at the mines in this immedi-
ate vicinity. This ought to be sufficient
proof of the wonderful mining activity
here and hereabouts.
George Girling, the hustling mining
operator of Mineral Point, accompanied
by VIM. McMullen, of Newark, Ohio,
who is largely interested in mines and
mining, had business here Tuesday of
last week and incidentally called upon
us. Mr.. Girling is gentleman who be-
lieves in doing things right, and some
of the things he has done has not only
made his own name known in mining,
but has been the means of making Min
eral Point better kr Jwn. Platteville
Witness.
Linden Southwest The drilling done
on the Granville extention in the last
two weeks has very conclusively dem
onstrated that the Granville Company
has the range on both sides of the Ross
mine. In other words, the Granville
people have just two-fifths of mile to
work measured along the unworked top
ground The lower run unworked ex-
ceeds that. The old Granville was never
better than it is today, having about
1000 feet of sheets to take out besides
rich sides along, old works that put in
one Tine you'd make 1900 feet a small
mill is soon to be erected for use, not
show. It's treasury stock is now held al
fS50 per share, or 100 per cent premium
and is worth more on its merits.
