proven to be more valuable than ever, after it was considered worked out by it's owners, but sucn appears to Toe th' case in the Gray Eagle mine in the Bradshaw mountains, in which only n few days ago, greater and more va'u' able orc bodies were proven by the dia' level. than have already been mined. | On and above The eighth level the great stopcs were thought io have been worked out, by the miners, as well rs by many men employed in responsible positions by the Tiger Gold company, which came into possession of th, prop. crty by purchase about five years ago. The stopcs, which were over 2j feet in width, in many places. followed The hanging wall, and were worked 'o T seam which was though, 'o be the true footwall. until George r. Harrington, general manager of the concern, proved to the contrary by pressing into ser vice diamond drills. At a distance of only nine feet into the supposed foo'' wall, inc drill passed through three. foot pavstrcak of ore that samples SiO to the ton in gold. and farther along five other veins of the same character of ore were bored through. On the ninth level. about nine feet into the footwall what appears to bc inc same body of ore was passed through. as found above and in the seventh. the sam" condition was proven by the drills as in the eighth. going to prove that although the mine was thought to have been worked out. in reality, it is richer and greater than ever.
 As a result of these discoveries the force of miners employed was increased twenty-five last week and there is al. ready 6,OOO tons of ore in sight and ready to bc stopped, that was not known to exist before in the property.
 The 20siamp mill. which has q monthly treating capacity of from 600 to 2,OOO tons q month. will be started on steady run in about ten days. and the camp which turned out s20o.O61.ss in bullion during the year 1906 will resume its oldtimc activity.
 In the north and south drifts from the twelfth level, in the shaft, large bodies of ore arr being opened, and the management is rushing development here as fast as possible. so that there will be no more shut downs necessary in the mill from the lack of cnouyl, stoping ground being open in the mine
 When seen here yesterday, by n rep rcscntativc of the Journal Miner, con, corning tine new developments in the Gray Eagle, General Manager George F. Harrington said:
 "lt's just like finding new mine Some of our fellows thought the mine was worked out above the eighth level but l showed them that it was better than ever anticipated. The mill was shut down n short time ago, to allow the development to be pushed farther ahead. More attention will be paid to keeping the development advanced in future.
 "I took advantage of the shut down to prove my theory that there wcr, large bodies of ore in what was called the footwall, and was successful. Tn, force is being increased as fast as pos sible, and soon the old workings will be active again and producing more or, than at any time in the history of tn, mine. With five parallel lodges of or, from three to four feet thick and nv craging $40 to the ton, the mill, whici will be started on steady run in tn, next ten days, can be operated con tinuously, as tho new paystreaks hay, already been proven on three levels and there is every reason to belicv, on the lower levels as well as ncnrc the surface"
 Important, though in a lesser degree than tnc strikes made in the Ora, Eagle mine, which may be justly con sidered among the most importan made in recent years in tho Bradshaw mountains, is the showing in the cross cuts from the shaft in the Gaxelle Col, company's property, within a short dis tsnce of the Gray Eagle. Here the ol, Tiger vein and the Mckinley icdg have been opened from the bolton ] level. In the old Tiger vein eisht fec
