Odin, one of the prospects absorbed at
that time. vast ore deposits have been
discovered and this has also been the
case in the kearns-keith ground.
Some months ago a churn-driii was
put In operation at the mine for the
purpose of improving the circulation

being made, by its use, between the
Aliahce kearns-lSeiti, and King

the year has taken over the Jupiter
ground, located at the head OF
Thaynes canyon, and has added to its
domain in other directions until now

this is being added to constantly. The
future plans for the working of tlti5

with the mine--the mills, sampler.

accounts in great measure for the sue

DAILY &WEST-oNTARIo.
Though the work of each is separate
and carried on under different local
arrangements. the DAILY West and On
tario properties under the manage
inent of. the Balnbergers. have several
interests in common. the principal ones
of these being the Ontario drain tunnel.
Since the opening of the big tunnel
last summer vigorous work has been
done in extending it to make connec-
ton with the Daily West, and this
work is rapidly nearing completion.
With this connectionym made the question
of water in the DAILY West shaft, al
ways q source Of more or less neon
¥ience and expense, Will have been
successfully dealtEwith, and no mere de-
lay in the development OF the mine Will
be experienced on account of water.
Shipping from the DAILY West property
was not commenced until the middle of
June, and since that time the output
has totaled UP about $4,000 tons. an
average of 1900 tons being sent out
each week. Prior to the resumption.

We're made at the company,s works,

f ming t1lnnels Now all the mine tinberS
for both the DAILY West and Ontario, are
framed right at the saw mill and taken
into the mine through the tunnel! The
new work al the DAILY West for the,
last 60 days has been confined largely
to preparing the shaft for sinking and
getting these operations under way.
Though water has hindered this work a
little OF late. good progress in the shaft
is now being made and with
