The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1907-07-13

On May II 1881, active work was
commenced by the new company ur-
der the immediate supervision OF A.
c. Davis, an experienced Lake Su.
perior miner. At this time, as the
result OF idleness, the mine had be.
come watered, and owing TO the
poor condition Of the pumps, it re-
quired considerable time to free it,
in fact longer than had been antici-
pated. An examination of the mine
whep unwatered showed no part
capable OF producing ore at once.
The company operated the mine
until 1879, at which time work was
again abandoned until 1893.
New Parties Lease.
In 1893 new corporation known
as the Edison Iron Concentrating
Co., secured twenty-year lease on
the property and as the lease was
taken for the purpose OF making cer-
tain experiments in the way OF ex-
tracing ore by the aid OF electricity,
little or nothing was done in the
way OF producing, although the
company retained the lease and
made settlements OF 81, 900 per an
nun until 1901. During the time
the property was undergoing ex-
periments with the Edison Iron
Concentrating Co., the Spur Iron
Mining Company disposed of it to
A. H. Lloyd. Of Estmont. vt, who
10 turn continued the lease to the
Edison company. AT the expira-
tion Of seven or eight years the com
pany discontinued operations and
since 1896, no active Operations
haye existed.
L'Anse Parties Interested.
During the present year local
parties became interested in the
property and through the agency Of
M. Voetsch, obtained satisfactory
encouragement, with the result that
on Saturday last deal was closed
whereby Messrs voetsch, Macon and
Seifert became the owners.

MAKING MAPLE SYRUP.

M. A. Strong of Lake district is fol- lowing the custom of his ancestors again this spring in boiling the sap from the maple trees about his home stead into syrup, which has been known for the fineness of it's flavo4and quality more than half century. This GUS tom seems to have gone into disuse among farmers the last few years, in this vicinity, partly on account of the amount of time and fuel consumed in getting the syrup and sugar, but the writer remembers the time seemingly not many years in the past when no syrup ranked higher in purity and weight than that produced right here in Litchfield county and quite plenti- full too. It was then readily sold and exchanged for S1 per gallon. Now with the price advanced and facilities much improved for making the same, many shrink from the task at this season of the year.
