News From GAINESVILLE Shaft.

The big vein was cut last week
and it is now possible to accurately
measure it. From the use of the test
drill the first of last week it was
thought that the vein would go as
high as So inches and so we reported
it but these figures proved little
too high. We are now told that it
measures 50 inches but few inches
next to the top of the vein is not first
class and the total of first-class coal
is now put at about 4S inches.
The boys began Thursday night of
6 O'Clock the next morning a big pile
est in this may be judged by the
large number of people who have Wis
tied the shaft since last publication
day of this paper, and we think near
ly everybody took a piece of coal
away with them as mementoes of
the great event.
The hole to the bottom of the coal
was cleaned out good some time Fri
day night and they began Saturday
morning putting in the guides for the
hosting cages. This work has since
been going on nicely and they expect
to complete it some time this week.
| The boys in the air shaft have been
doing something too as we'll as the
| boys in the main. Monday the air
shaft boys were within one stump of
the top of the coal vein and they ex-
pected to shoot it Monday night or
Tuesday morning SO that the coal
could be cleaned. When this is done
the stairway will be put in and the
work finished so far as the Dowells
are concerned. A force of hands
have been at work several days max
ing the long stairway which will
reach from the bottom of the hole to
the top of the ground They hope to
be done by Saturday ght-Cains-
