NEW HOIST TO PUSH
GRIZZLY BEAR TO DEPTH

Preparations are now being made
for installing new and larger hoist,
of 75-h. p. capacity, on the Grizzly
Bear lease, which will be sufficient to
send the shaft down to 1000 feet or
more and handle all the ore that may
te developed. The shaft is now down
about 400 feet, being accompaniment
bucket or cage and manway. the
new hoist will make this one of the
best equipped leases in the district, as
it already has a high-power air com
ressor, blacksmith and machine shop,
hosting plant, etc. No vein has yet
been cut, but the Clermont is expected
to be reached at about 470 feet, and
then the Jumbo and Mohawk at greater
depths. This work will demonstrate
the persistency of values at depth in
this section.
The work is in charge of Bruce *.
Jones, who is pushing operations to
reach the ore bodies in the least pos
sible time. The lease is well financed,
one of the principal hackers being Wal
ton f. Dowlen, president of the Ne
vada Goldfeld Reduction works.

There is but little change in condi-

Great Bend for some time past, but
Development is being carried forward
Systematically on the Lotus & Davis

the LOTUS & Davis lease was recently

lutte denials from Mr.. Lotus, and were
based on the fact that an assay of
si2s ton had been secured from Il
small specimen. This assay has not
been duplicated, and Mr.. Lotus does
not expect it to be for some time to
ccme, so far as present indications are
concerned.
