will be 1000 feet deep by the first OF
January.
That magnificent plant of machinery
is In commission, and the heavy machine
drills are pounding away in either drift
and in the big shaft. which Is going
down at the rate of 100 feet a month.
Four drills are working. one in either
drift, and two in the shaft and the air
line will be extended to the combination
shaft where two drills will be installed.
SUPERINTENDENT Bob Smith is highly
elated over the success of the new plant
and the rapidity with which develop
ment may b. carried on. Within forty
days Mr.. Smith expects to reach the ore
on the 4O0-foot level.
The shaft is going down in the foot
wall and it will require perhaps thirty
or forty feet of prosecuting to get
into the ore from the next level. When
the ore is cut on the 400. an additional
crew Of men will be put on. SO that
lateral work on the 800 and 400 and also
work in shaft may be accomplished at
the same time.
The drifts north and south on the
3O0-foot level have been III about IS
