Eureka, May 23.-The new smelter al
Silver City will be ready to go into
commission about the 18th of June, ac-
cording to w. l.. Mangum. manager OF
the plant. II seems that everything
Is depending on the construction of the

ment of ore to the snelter will follow,
Shipments OF ore from the district

The usual amount OF prospecting Is
also going on in the Little Chief.
b. II, Bullock was here Wednesday
and made a trip TO the Montreal ground
in East Tintic, upon which a tunnel is
being extended 100 feet by contract.
About SO feet of the new work has al
ready been accomplished and Mr.. Bull
lock states that the show at the face
of the tunnel Is highly encouraging, as
the rock is OF the same grade as that
encountered upon the Bullock property
farther to the south The Bullock
property viii soon commence the sink
ing of main working shaft.
Local shareholders of the Cherokee
Nevada property held an informal meet
ing here last Monday and the advisa-
bility of re-opening the property was
discussed. 1t is quite probable that the
mine will be opened at an early date.
The property may be leased, as some
of the owners in II claim that this
would be the cheapest way of carrying
on the development work.
William Stauffenburg and William
Oakley have taken a contract to do $50
feet of tunnel work on the Diamond
Queen ground near Diamond, the con-
tract price being Sc per foot.
The junior mining students of the
University OF Utah will come to TIN

ing the geological formations of the
district. The class spent six weeks
here last season camped near the Yam
kee mine on the east side of the Eure
