Work Of Sinking To Start in Few

 Cloud
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

At the shaft on the Snoozer mine, on Senator mountain, the new boiler for the noistiug plant is installed, and the hoisting engine will Do in place in few days, when the work of sinking the shaft will be commenced. The Snoozer ledge is the fourth of a series of five veins in the range of the Sen. ator tunnel, which has already passed through the Senator, Ten Spot and Treadwell, in all of which good orc bodies have been uncovered and which are being developed from the tunnel.
 The Snoozcr shaft will reach the tunnel level at depth of l,O7O feet according to the engineers calculations lt is developed on the surface by q number of shallow shafts. in waich, i, Is said, there is one of the best ore showings on the mountain. The man agcment expects to reach the ycir through the tunnel in a very shor, time. The water in the vein will drain through the tunnel, which will facilitate the work of sinking the shaft. Tn, fifth vein of the series, south of tn, Snoozcr, is the Cashier, in which ther, IS also an excellent surface showing ex posed in number of shallow shafts It is only few hundred feet south of the Snoozer and the tunnel will h. pushed towards it when the Snoozer is passed.
 Good reports continue to come from the tunnel on the storm Cloud mine which IS being pushed ahead. Tn, splendid ore showing in this opening improves as depth is being gained in the mountain, and miners familiar with the ground state that there is no longe, any doubt but what it will prove to bc one of the greatest copper and gold producers in the Mount Union section of the iIassayampa district.

The origin Of the use OF mahogany
Is said to have been as follows: A
West Indian trader brought home sew
eral logs of mahogany as ballast for his
ship. The traders brother, London
physician, happened to be building a
house, and his brother suggested that
the logs would serve for ceiling beams,
Acting on the proposal, the doctor gave
orders to his workmen accordingly, bat
their tools were not able to make an Inn
preston on the hard wood. The doctor
ordered fresh tools to be made, and at
length succeeded in finding implements
which would cut the timber. Delighted
with his discovery he ordered bureau
to be made, and so beautiful was 1t
that 1t attracted general attention.
