 The shaft on the mine of the Bound ary Cone company, near the Tom Reed, is being fast sunk toward the 300 foot level. At the POO the ore was found to be of such high milling grade that it was deemed best to sink to the 800 and develop the mine from that point. The POO level is in the older andesite,
