Di G k n son Experiment
Station.

Gov. Burke scaled down the Dickinson
experiment station appropriation to the
extent of 5000, leaving s14,275, or $4,000
after providing for the deficit. This gives
a little less than 5000 per year for
maintenance for the ensuing two years.
The Dickinson sub-station is at present
receiving some government aid from the
bureau of plant industry, and it is hoped
that such aid will be materially increased
the coming season.
The trustees will carry on the work as
best they can with the appropriation and
it is believed that the institution will be
able to make a very creditable showing
with the present aid, although very much
smaller than was desired.

Four Years.

CRIPPLE CREEK, Col, May 1.-THE
building of the great Cripple Creek drain
age tunnel, inaugurated today by the GOV
ernor of the state and distinguished Wis
itors, marks an epoch in the history of the
famous gold camp.
About sixteen years ago Winfield Scott
Stratton, Colorado Springs carpenter, be-
gan spending his scant earnings in pros
pecting some outcroppings in the Cripple
Creek cow pastures. On the 4th of July.
1891, he located claim on vein which
gave him rich assays. and he called that
claim the Independence. He subsequently,
located many other claims in that neighbor-
hood and few years ago sold his prop
erty to an English syndicate for $4,000, 900,
after extracting many millions from it him.
self. In the succeeding years the Cripple
Creek COW pasture was transformed into
booming mining camp.
Drainage Tunnel Contrived.
When the high grade ere bodies on the.
known veins had been extracted down to
the 500-foot point the water troubles Of the
district began. A drainage tunnel was

therefore, .contr!ved, and eventually driven
20 cut the main water courses of the dis
trict at depth of 600 feet. but that tun-
mel was not deep enough. The shafts soon
We're again encountered. After months of
investigation 1t was determined to drive a
deep drainage tunnel which would drain
the camp at great depth.
The cost of such an undertaking is enor-
nous, approximating s10oo,OOo. The mine
owners, the scitizens of Colorado and the
railroads and smelters Joined forces and
contributed to the raising of a fund suffi-
started few weeks ago, and is progressing
as fast as men and money can carry it for
ward.
Portal on Cripple Creek.
The portal of the tunnel is located on the
stream known as Cripple creek. and is
situated at an elevation Of 500 feet above
sea level. 1t viii drain the entire Cripple
Creek district at depth of about 1900
feet from -the surface. or $50 feet below
the present water level. The district is
drained at present by the Ell Paso tunnel,
(which cuts the H Pasa mine on the west
side of the district ton Beacon HilD, at a
depth of about go feet from the s-:rface,
and the indicator mine. on the east side
of the camp, at depth of 1916 feet. 1t
will therefore be seen that the new tunnel
will drain the Beacon Hill section at a
depth of about $50 feet and the east side
at depth Of about 1900 feet from the sur
face.
Shaft 1900 Feet Deep.
The deepest shaft in the camp is now
about 1900 feet. The new tunnel WILL
therefore, make available all the way from
100 to 1900 feet of additional ore bodies
belew the present water level, and this
will add millions in production.
. The length of this tunnel from it's portal
to the main contact near the Ell Paso
shaft, at which point it begins to drain the
district is about 1400n feet, and figuring
at the rate of $50 per foot would cost
100000 to this point. To continue to the
indicator, a further distance of about
12OG0 feet, as estimated, would cost an
additional 100000.
1t Is figured that it will take about two
years to dig to the contact, between one
and one-half to two years longer to build
the tunnel to the Vindicator shaft, or
total of from three and one-half to four
years to construct the tunnel. But all
this time ore will be extracted from the
upper and reclaimed levels
The magnitude and Importance of this
project can be best conserved by means of
figures showing what It will add in dollars
and cents to the worlds gold production.
The Cripple Creek district has thus far
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1907-05-11

produced more than 500, O0O, coo of gold
During 1905 the production was nearly
I7,G00.OG0. and this rate of produ ction
has been steadily maintained for years. 1t
is estimated that the driving of the deep
drainage tunnel will enable the Cripple
Creek district to double its present record.

70 Stop Fish Dynamiting.

Orangeburg, Aug. 26.-Mr. James
Henry Rice, Jr., deserves the COM
mendation and cooperation of all
law-abiding citizens of the state in his
endeavofs to stop the ruthless slaugh-
ter of game and fish, which has been
practiced, without cessation, for a
long time in all sections in South Car
olina.
The Edisto river, famed the country
over for it's fine fish, which. have at
tracted anglers from all directions,
has long been a. prey to the merciless
work of the fish dynamiters to such
an extent that there was danger of
the determination Of the fnny tribe,
but Mr.. Rice has taken the matter in
hand and is determined to stamp out
all lawlessness of this kind and save
the Edisto from such fate. In this
work he has the hearty support of all
except the few who are guilty of
these unlawful acts.

Horses in Norway.

horse in Norway, said horse doe
tor. ''That is because the horses
there are allowed to drink while they
eat, the same as mankind.
"Our horses, let them be as thirsty
as getout, must still eat their dry fod-
der, their dry hay and oats and corn,
with nothing to wash them down.
But in Norway every horse has a
bucket of water beside his manger,
and, as he eats, he drinks, also.
''It is interesting to see how the
Norwegian horses relish their water
with their meals. Now they sip lit
tie from the bucket, now they eat a
mouthful, then another sip, then an
other mouthful, just like rational
human beings.
''You never see a broken-winded
