stable year, aud they have all been
looking for a leisure time, when they
could have week Of to visit their
family and friend.
We are informed the keystone
coispany are going to install new ma
ohinery at their mine. this mine j.
one OF the deepest mine, in kentuc-
Ky; they are 1876 feet deep, with .
foot lead this goc, 10 prove that We
are only on the top Of our great mi
neral ore deposits.
Il is reported that the Commodore
mine, owned by Louisville parties, is
said 10 be one of the richest mines
in lead and zinc in this part Of the
country; this mine is well equipped
with the latest and most improved
machinery. with air compressor and
the famous little Jap drills.
The Florence has resumed
work. Last Saturday they put full
force Of men to sinking the shaft
deeper, and the fact Of four foot
lead Of solid spar showing up wa,
what caused the decision. The shaft
will be pushed to great depth and
buildings Of all kinds erected in the
near future. The conditions of the
roads will not permit of any ship
ments until spring.
The Eclipse mine, now owned
and controlled by Louisville parties,
bids fair to bee the richest zinc
mine ever found in this part of the
mining field here we find the big
cubes Of Jack. which no other mine
n this section has ever produced this
grade of Jack is what made Joplin
