Payment.
RESUME WORK TOMORROW
NEW HOIST NSTALLED-OUT
PUT TO BE INCREASED.

Notwithstanding the fact that the mine
has besn closed down for nearly four
weeks as a result of repairs being made
to ore bins and the replacing of the first
big electric hoist with one that is larger
than anything of the kind in the state,
the directors of the Lower Mammoth
Mining company posted dividend of 71ac
per share, or go, yesterday. Payment
will be made on the Goth and transfer
books will close at o. m. on the 26th of
the present month.
So splendidly has the task of taking out
the old hoist and installing the new one
been pushed along by the mine superin-
tendent that ne advised the directors yes
terday that he would be ready to place
the new hoist in commission and begin
the lifting of ore from the lower levels
by tomorrow afternoon at the latest Dur
ing the clOse-doWn additional bin and
loading facilities have been provided and
Manager John Dern states that every
thing is now in shape for the handling of
larger tonnage of ore than il has ever
been possible to take care of at the prop
erty.
The mine is now equipped in manner
that will permit of operations at almost
any depth for great many years to
come, and the career of the mine. the
time when IL is possible for it to show
what II is, has arrived In addition to
the great hoisting plant that has now
been installed at the mouth of the big
operating shaft on the tunnel level one
of the most powerful electric hoists in
this region is also in commission down
on the 1,400-foOt level This hoist and
shaft Is located right in the ore-produc-
ing zone and with it no trouble will be
experienced in opening level after level
below the LOO. As a matter of fact the
Lower Mammoth is now one of the best
equipped mines in Utah and the belief OF
every mining engineer who has seen it
during the past few months is unequiv-
ocal in the declaration that the property
has brilliant future ahead of it.
