RUSHING WORK
ON DEEP SHAFT
OF MERGER co.

GOLDFIELD, New, Oct. 27.-
Much activity prevails on the Mer
ger Mines estate, where work on
the 2O00-foot shaft is progressing
satisfactorily, and other preparations
for the big project are fast being
rounded into shape. The collar of
the old shaft has been enlarged
to four compartments and timbers
run down at this size two sets, or
ten feet, and around this will be
| laid a concrete wall to protect the
ter. At each end of the shaft a
| heavy concrete foundation for the
side base of the steel gallows frame
will be laid, so there will be no
necessity for disturbing the timbers
at the cellar of the shaft either in
charging it or placing the steel
gallows frame when it arrives with
the big plant of machinery that is
to be installed for the deep work.
This surface work has been done
while 40 horsepower electric
hoist was being put in to replace
the gasoline hoist that has done
service on this shaft fer several
years The new hoist is connected
with so horsepower motor and
is now ready for operations.
Down in the mine two shifts CT
men have been at work cutting out
for raising from the 350-foot leve
in tire compartment size, which will
be the size at which the shaft vii
be enlarged and sunk for the time
being, but it can be easily enlarged
to four compartments when desired
The underground force will be i'm
mediately increased to three shifts
and work in the shaft will be push
ed with increased energy.
Quite "a group of buildings have
been placed on the Merger Mine.

came almost simultaneously with the
remarks of Mr.. Kiser of the Cannon

meeting Of the Commercial Club
Thursday night, in which he urged
Cairo to make an effort to secure the
Button Co. to locate a factory here.
Mr. Kiser pointed out the peculiar adj
yantages of this city for that line of
industry. in that rich beds of mussel
shells were lying idle in the Ohio
river a few miles above Cairo, which
could be dug up and foated to Cairo
at nominal cost, whereas the company
was now paying $4 ton to transport
them to their plant in Museatine.
The plant could be located on land
in the Cairo Drainage district, with
river frontage, and the raw material
could be foated to its very doors.
Secretary Carey, of the Commercial
Club. has taken up the matter with
the Fulton Co. and will present the
Favorable conditions which Cairo of.
