II. w. Rand was In the city early
IN the week from Portland, Ore,
to look after mining interests.
OF course. he visited the Virginia
Louise. In which he is large share
holder. He expressed himself
to the Record as being delighted
with the results achieved from the
campaign of development that
has been going on there for some
time and gave out the information
that at meeting of the board of di-
rectcrs held early In the week 1t wa
decided to ! a contract to sink the
shaft to water level. The contract
has since been awarded to George
Karakas. who began work yesterday
The present depth of the shaft is
$40 feet, which on the way down
from the surface has penetrated at
least $50 feet of ore and the bottom
OF the saft is still in ore. Cross-cuts
and drifts have been run out on the
800 level to the extent that practical
ly 100000 tons of ore has been blockf
ed out.
1t Ia the purpose Of the management
to continue the shaft to the object
I've point: then epxloit the ore de-
posit thereand raise to form &
connection with hte 800. This done,
the company will be In shape to pro-
duce ore upon 4 decidedly economic
scale.
Mr. Rand WIS glad to note the
activity being displayed by the Prince
Extension company and feels sure
that the efforts Of this company will
be well rewarded.
