Twsnly.Foot Vein Encountered.

A veir twenty feet wide was encoun.
tered the first Of the week in the breast
Of the Newhouse tunnel and for the first
time in the history OF the tunnel, it was
necessary to timber close up TO the breast
in order to get through the vein, says
the Idaho Springs Slftings. The crevice
is simpregnated with mineral, is composed
of soft tale and gouge, carrying consider
able water. Both OF the walls are solid,
and after putting in three sets Of timbers
Contractor Knowles was able to continue
the tunnel on it's way under Quartz hill.
The vein intersected may be the Great
Mammoth vein; it's identity cannot be
ascertained except by making surveys,
and these may be misleading because Of
frequent changes in the pitch of the
veins. The vein may be composed OF a
number Of veins coming into and form
ing one big lode in the intervening dis
tance, Of some 1000 feet, between the
floor OF tho Newhouse tunnel and the
surface. Driving on the vein will be
very difficult and will probably not be
attempted until great pert of the water
has been drained away.

Schneider to be Mine Inspector.

George w. Schneider Of Central City,
Is to be state commissioner of mines un-
der Gov. H. A. Buchtel. The Office is
considered perhaps the most desirable
under the direct disposition Of the gov
ernor and has been bitterly fought for.
Schneider is present deputy commits
sioner Of mines under E. Lyman White.
He has familiarized himself with the
work OF the department and this helped
him materially in landing the position.
For the fact that the Office carries with
it four-year term it is considered one
Of the best appointive positions IN the
state house. The salary is $500 per
year, with liberal expense account.
Schneider is graduate of the State
School Of Mines and capable young
man. White made no effort to be re-
appointed. His administration has been
an excellent one, the mining industry be-
ing well advertised and the reports on
accidents being concise and intelligent.
Chancellor Buchtel will not wait until
assuming Office to announce Schneider's g
appointment. In order to put a check to
applications, which have poured in by
the score, he will formally appoint
Whites successor next week. Schneider
did exceptionally good work around Gen.
