THE APPROACH OF THE HOLIDAY
SEASON.

Christmas, the great church festi-
val of every year, will soon be here.
This holiday of all holidays is con-
fined to no particular country. Its
observance is worldwide and much
broader than church lines in every
land. In this country the Christmas
holiday season is generally participant
ed in by ALT he people. 1t is a
season of good will, season of gift
giving, a season of charity offering,
season of thankfulness, season OF
hope that tends to inspire and
broaden the hearts of mankind. We
bespeak for this season a general OBJ
servance.

CORN HEATING IN CRIBS.

According to reports made by daily
oapers of the state, there is a gener.
al complaint all over the country that
corn is heating and spelling in the
cribs. The same report comes from
Minnesota and Wisconsin. 1t is a
most unusual thing as corn was ma
.ured before frost came and the
all was dry and apparently well
'dapted to the drying of corn. But
FOR some reason the cob is still wet
Ind cold weather will no doubt have
good effect in curing the corn.

The crosscuts that have been sent
out on the lower levels of the Mid
way have cut a number of small
stringers which will be followed up
at later date At the present there
is considerable development work be-
ing done in the property and new
territory is being opened up. The
policy of the officials seems to be to
hoist only enough high grade to pay
the expenses and continue on with
the work of prospecting and develop
ment. Throughout the mine there is
practically no change since the last
report One of the officials and a
heavy stakeholder has spent consid-
cradle time during the past week in
inspecting the workings and reports
himself as being highly pleased with

MCNAMARA.

During the week the MacNamara
shipped 200 tons of ore to the Mon
tana mill for treatment. The total
of the shipment is somewhat low
this week owing to the inability of
hosting on the night shift for sew
eral nights on account of the work
being done at the bottom of the
shaft preparatory to sinking, which
was started yesterday. The shaft
had to be timbered near the bottom,
and now that this has been COM
pleted the work of sinking will be
rushed. A machine has been placed
on this work and it is expected that
the additional depth of 800 feet will
be reached within three months.
This is for the purpose of prospect
ing in some veins, which were cut by
the diamond drill some three months
ago.

the work of driving an east drift on

275-Foot Level-Stoping is going
on in two places on this level on the
vein, which shows an average width
of three and one-haIf feet of shipping
ore in both places.
300-Foot Level-The Slopes on the
vein at a point 500 feet west of the
shaft are now up about thirty feet,
and show face of about thirty-five
feet, and at the present time contains
about four feet of milling ore. Two
machines have been placed at work
here to extract the high grade.

west drift has advanced nine feet
during the week and is now up
seyenty-five feet, showing four feet
of good milling rock. The Wine on
the 1856 has advanced fourteen feet
and is now down a total of 168 feet,
with no change in the formation of
the bottom. After sinking distance
of ten feet more, which will be done
this week, a point will be reached
opposite the 1100-foot level and
drifts will be run to make connec-
lions with the lower workings. The
east drift, No. 2, from the Wine has
advanced twenty-four feet and is now
in 1879 feet, showing about four feet
of good milling ore. The extent of
the ledge here and the values are
steadily increasing. The work at the
point directly under the old Belmont
shaft, which was reached last week,
has been suspended for the present,
and consequently no work has been
done on cutting out the station
there. This will be resumed, how
ever, shortly.
1100-Foot Level-The west stope
from this level continues to look
about the same. The east stope or
No. raise which extends toward the
east for about thirty feet, show.
three feet of fair grade ore. Worl

advanced thirty-seven feet.

200-Foot Level-The stope on this
level for about $50 feet east and
west of the shaft is up seventy-five
feet, with an ore body in sight aver
aging from two to ten feet in width.
On the intermediate level the stope
is being worked for distance of $50
feet on a ledge three and one-half
feet wide. This stope has reached
the 200 level, distance of about
thirty feet.
The mine shipped 500 tons of ore
to the Belmont mill at Millers during
the week.
The only work throughout the
mine at present is stopping and this
policy will be continued until the ar
