suddenly with little or no warning and in such huge chunks that the con cussions alone would be fatal to every man in the mine. With the roof ouce broken, however, n6d E tts weight resting upon the oee drawn down as far as the No. ? level. there win De comparattyely little difficulty. IL Is the extraction of the blocks between the No. 1 and No. 2 level that presents the greatest problems. Above the No. 2 level. therefore. the mining is to be done by a combination of the square set, slicing, and caving systems. Be- low this No. level. all the ore can probably be extracted by caving alone.
 Above block No. 1. we will assume that the ore has been extracted oy square setting. and the block ftseh has been caved, drawn. and filled with waste to a depth of say 20 feet. The roof above is now shot down. breaking 1t through to the surface, and the waste absorbs the concussion. Between No. 1 and No. block is left 40foot pillar extending across the width or the ore body. Following the filling of block No. 1, by breaking down Its roof block No. is caved and drawn and the unsupported roof above IL Is then brought down on waste filling similar to the No. 1. block operations Meanwhile a third block Is being ex- plotted beyond the second pillar. Then when the roof has come down over blocks No. 1 and No. ?. surrounding the pillar with waste. it's ore can be extracted by slicing down to the No. 2. level and likewise, after block No. 8 has been filled the ore in the sec ond pillar was recovered in similar manner.
 In this way it is planned to extract all the ore above the second level thus bringing the broken roof down to it without danger. When three or four blocks have been along the length of the ore body and the inter vening pillars sliced as indicated, cav ing operations may be commenced on the blocks between the second and third levels. and with the help Of the superintendent weight, the ore can probably be quicker and more econo- mically handled than that in the blocks first cayed.

 The statement was made at the of- fee of Postmaster General Hitchcock that the postal receipts at the fifty offices enumerated usually reflect the. condition of business in those cities. and, taking it for granted that there is no exception to the rule in this instance, 1t is declared that the in- creases can be taken as an indication of remarkably improved business con ditions throughout the country.
 The per cent of increases averaged by the fifty largest offices in the coun- try reached SIS per cent over July, 1908. In July. 1908, these same offices showed an average increase over the same month in 1907 of only ASA per cent.
