and Tuesday. He states that George
Sydelinker, who has the contract for 100
feet of tunneling upon the Montreal
group, will commence work al once. When
asked regarding the Bullock property at
Silver City, Mr. Bullock said that the
report to the effect that the Aspinwall
vein had been cut was erroneous. The
drift toward the east from the 1JO-foot
level cut a vein of ore which shows good
values, but the Aspinwall vein is still
further to the east, perhaps ten feet from
the face of the drift at the present time.

time, but those who have visited the
mine of late are confident that it will
be d regular shipper in the near future.

Parvenue Tunnel to Explore

Quits the New England.

Bingham, April ga contract to
drive the Parvenue tunnel along its
general westerly direction under the
Apex hill was let the early part of this
week. Negotiations with eastern Off
Gals have been under way for some
time TO continue this work. but moth
ing of a definite nature was done I'M
til recently. This work is considered
by all interested in the mining indus
try in camp as being of more than or
binary significance, as il will undoubt-
edly disclose just what ore bodies there
are under this much discussed Apex
hill.
The Yampa and Utah Consolidated
companies are especially interested in
this work, as their properties adjoin
that of the Utah-ApeX. The Utah-ApeX
company has not as yet explored its
territory at depth, and as both the ad-
joining properties have their larger ore
bodies at depth, the results of the driv-
ing of the Parvenue tunnel will be
watched eagerly. The tunnel at present
is in $500 feet and it is the intention,
it is said, to drive it the same distance
TO the north and west. 1t will also
be an excellent outlet for the ores of
the Utah-ApeX property and will do
away with the expense of transporting
the ore over the tram and also the
hosting expense will be done away

After an association of five and one
half years with the New England Min

Atkinson has rendered his resignation
to Managing Director E. Z. Abercrom-
bic of Boston, to take effect on May
l. To the many friends of Mr.. Adkin-
son his resignation comes as a great
surprise, as he is one of the best known
and most liked mine superintendent in
camp. His treatment of the men in
his employ has been of the very best
and they are unanimous in declaring
that they win lose a good friend when
the genial superintendent leaves. He
will leave shortly after the LIST foI
Denver, where he will enter the employ
of y. E. Reynolds. one of the oldest
and most prominent mine owners in
Colorado. There has been no successor
named for the position and il is not
likely there will be until Mr.. Abercrom-
bic reaches here from Boston the first
part of May.

NO CONTEST AT COMING
MEETING OF U. S. COMPANY

The call for the annual meeting of the
United States Smelling company, and no
tice that six new directors will be added
to the board, mean that there will be
no contest at the annual meeting to be
held in Portland, May 20, says the Bos-
ton News Bureau.
This agreement was arrived at at a
meeting of the full board of directors in
Boston held recently. The fact that there
will be no contest is also shown by the
statement that all stock or proxies held
or controlled by the directors, including
r. D. Evans. will be voted in favor of
the program outlined in the notice to
stockholders.

Honor Men at Norwich May Go Into
Regular Army.


Mortified, Jan. 19.-An extract
from the general orders issued by the
war department, January 2, 1908 prob
ably means more to Norwich univer-
witty, from military standpoint, than
any other one thing which has been
brought about in recent years, and the
delight by all interested in the insti.
tuition.
BY virtue of this honor graduates
of Norwich university will be eligible
to the grade of second lieutenant in
the army, after the assignment of the
graduates of the United States mill
tary academy and available candidates
from the ranks, subject only to ply
steal examination and test in horse
manship.
Every year since the government
has inspected and classified the col
leges to which regular army officers
have been detailed as professors of
military science, Norwich university
has been reported as one OF the six
schools found most proficient, and
from these six institutions the second
lieutenants have been chosen to fill
positions not taken by West Pointers.
In all cases, however, the men have
been required to take the mental ex.
aminations required of all civilian ap-
pointees.
Lieut.. Chapman has been endeavor.
ing to secure this concession to
schools of the first class for some time
and now that it has been given Nor.
wich university stands out more pro-
minently than ever as a stepping stone
to the service. 1t comes as an en-.
dorsement of the college and its curri
culum.

LID RAISED IN RUTLAND
Stores Open Sunday In Defiance OF
Mayor Richmond.

Rutland, Jan. 19.-All the local fruit
drug and candy stores opened their
doors this morning for business and
closed them when they pleased despite
the orders Mayor r. l., Richmond gave
Chief of Police Il. S. Whitaker to de-
liver to all the Rutland merchants
saying that their places of business
must be closed Sundays, with the ex-
ception of drug stores which were to
remain open but five hours. The news
dealers also kept their stands open
and paid no heed to the orders given
by the mayor as did the creamery man
ayers.
About three weeks ago the blue
Sunday law was started in Rutland at
the request of some of the ministers of
this city, all places of business were
closed but since then some prominent
lawyers of Rutland had been interview
ed In regard to the law and the attor.
neys advised their clients to remain
open II they desired. Last Sunday
which was the second Sunday the blue
law was put into effect in Rutland, all
places of business with the exception
of drug stores. creameries and news
paper stands were closed. Some fruit
dealers were open all day and good
part of the evening and sold anything
they had calls for.

sets which is building factory at
Randolph. for the purpose Of deliver
ing absolutely pure milk in Boston
much below the cost of the commodity
there now, is very anxious to build
another factory in Vermont, Rutland
being the favored site. Some months
ago it's representatives held confer
ence with Rutland county farmers ex-
hibiting their concentrated milk.
Their proposition to locate here was
favorably received but at that time
they wished to sell some Of their stock
to the farmers. The dairymen did not
fall in with the idea so the proposition
did not come to head.
The company has sold its rights to a
Boston syndicate and now the new
owners wish to locate here, saying
that there will be no stock for sale.
They are asking for deal similar to
the one they got in Randolph, the pres
ent of site and exemption from tax
alton for five years, the concern to put
up its own buildings. They claim that
other towns besides Randolph have Of
fered them these terms.
The citizens of Rutland have not yet
talked the matter over but the farmers
in general favor the idea because 1t
looks like higher prices for milk.
