the vessel is ready to resume service
on the Mattox creek route as soon as
her owners desire. The work on the

There is a lull in our endeavor,

THE SILVER MOON.
Crosscut Tunnel to Be Extended to
East and West Vein.

The management of the Silver Moon
Mining company, the property of
which Is located near Black Bear, on
the north side of the canyon, has
changed the plan of development. The
showing in the shaft, which has been
sunk 1926 feet, is not as satisfactory as
hoped for and the work there will be
abandoned for the present at least.
There are two well defined and highly
promising leads crossing the property
one known as the north and south
vein and the other the east and west
Work in the shaft was for the pur-
pose of exploring the first named. The
plan now Is to resume operations in
the crosscut This will be extended
900 feet, where 1t should cut the east
and west vein at a point about 800
feet from it's intersection with the
north and south vein, A drift will
then be run to the point of intersec-
ton, and much confidence Is expressed
by the management that an ore shoot
will be encountered at that point and
probably before 1t is reached. The
work here outlined will explore the
ground at a depth OF 900 feet.
