The Ieasers who have been conduct
ing clean up at the Eureka Hill mill
have about completed their work which
will give them about 10000 pounds of mer-
curry and two bars of bullion. The mer-
curry is said to be worth about 30 cents per
pound while the bars Of bullion are val
ued at $3.50 each. The machine of Irvine
Spriggs which was invented by that gen.
tleman for the purpose of separating gold
from sand was used to good advantage in
the clean up of the old mill
Inc new compressor of the Yankee
Consolidated is now furnishing sufficient
power for the work at the mine in fact
the company will have power to sell to
some of the other mining companies. Con-
tracts were recently let for drifting upon
the 200 and 500-foot levels. The coptrac-
tors who were at work upon the 20O-fOot

Six blocks of ground In the upper work
lnSs or the Uncle Sam mine were turned
over 10 leaSers last Saturday. These leases
are all above the 300-foot level and while
the company has taken out a great deal
OF ore from these old workings there are
stilI many small stringers of ore which
the leasers believe viii lead them into
something good. 1t was In the upper
workings that the company found some
of the richest ore shipped in recent years
and ii will not be at all surprising if some
gooc strikes are made. Superintendent C.
=. GrlggS has given the leasers a more
liberal form of lease than exists in most
or the T1ntic mines where the leasing svs-
tenn prevails and this will enable them to
mine and ship the lower grade ores at a
profit under the contract which the Uncle
sam Mining company has with the smell

There is a certain writer in Boston
"a man of remarkable versatility
who once gave friend in the publish
ing business in New York resume
of the details of his average day
work.
Il am as methodical in my work"
said the Boston writer, "as any bus
mess man. My daily tasks are so d.
versified and so arranged that | am
able to afford myself considerable va

Another DIG at Powers.

A few days ago. Gov. Cobb, Of
Maine, and Hon. w. r. Pattangall,
prominent in politics in the same
state, were together on a train. Mr..
Pattangall is a lawyer and an editor,
the writer of the humorous NEEDY
bemps Letters" appearing in his pa
per, the Machias Union.
In. the course of conversation, Gov.
Cobb remarked to Mr.. Pattangall: Il
don't see why you and Llwellyn Pow
ers should be so extremely antag-
onistic to each other Neither of you
ever fails to give the other a rap
when there is opportunity"
AT this point an interested listener
in the car leaned toward their chairs
and asked rs it really true that ex-
Gov. Powers is of Indian DESCENT"
We'll, the Indians deny it, Mr..
Pattangall answered, in his inimitable
manner.
