CONTRACTS LET
At ROCHESTER
TWO .OO-FOOT TUNNELS ARE TO
TAP LEDGES 1T DEPTH
OF 900 FEET

Contracts for the digging of two
tunnels. each 700 feet long, are to be
let in Rochester this week for the
opening up of two of the properties
of the camp, which adjoins the Roch-
ester Mines company ground on Mem
I'll Kill, says the Lovelock Review
Miner. The first one will be driven
on the original Rochester Mining
company claims to a distance of 700
feet, starting in the draw at the
north end and running northeasterly
to 20 between the Hackeley-Cole and
F'erry-Sampson leases and will tap
TIE three veins that traverse the
property at a depth of 600 feet.
The other tunnel will be run on
the Rochester Belmont ground
starting in Weaver canyon at the
south end and running northeasterly
for 700 feet to tap the old Sun
flower vein at a depth of 500 feet.
When these are completed it Is
stated that other work will be let to
contract.
The results of this weeks work on
the Colligan lease on the Rochester
Weaver company's property in the
Rochester mining district. has al
ready tripled the value of the ground
and is promising to make it n OF
the biggest companies operating in
TIE district.
II the crosscut which has been
sart through the country for a dis
lance of 245 feet a seven foot quartz
ledge was uncovered which carries
all gold values. The ledge is a strong
one with a As degree dip to the west.
1t is believed to be a ledge which
was cut as a stringer on the Big Four
ground and has widened out in the
Weaver ground to a fine size.
About 40 feet beyond another
dyke has been cut which seems to
lie highly silicified, showing vug
holes in the quartz. The indications
point to it being a good ore shoot.
The east vein has not yet been
reached.
Mining men familiar with that par
ticuIar formation state that the above
discoveries have enhanced the value
of the property three times over.

FIRST BULLION SHIPMENT
FROM ROCHESTER, MILL.

The first shipment of bullion from
the custom mill at Rochester has
reached the Selhy smelter. The ship
ment amounts to $32,50O and was
produced by the Big Four, the Codd
and the Four Jay leases on Nenzel
hill.
The shipment would have been
larger but the mill was not working
satisfactorily and certain parts had
to be replaced, entailing a delay of a
couple of days.
The three leases are now sending
80 tons each to the mill daily and
the recovery has been up to expec-
tatiOns. A larger output will be
r,ade as soon as everything is work
ing in good shape. A. A. COdd was
one OF the party to take out the
shipment of bullion.-PeHo journal.

ENGLISH MINERS PROVE
WORTH AT THE FRONT

LONDON, May According to
trade union officials, more than
10000 miners have been recruited
into the British army since the be-
ginning of the war. Most of these
have been enrolled as engineers or
sappers. thus providing trained men
for this work, which is proving of
the highest Importance in the trench
warfare on the western front.
The capture of Hill No. 60 near
Ypres, is a case in point, where the
spade played a vital part in the op-
erations. Tunneling and mine laying
of a swift and certain nature was es-
sentiaI to this operation and the sap
pers employed were skilled miners
from Wales and the north of Eng
land.
Accustomed 90 working under
ground wiz a complete mastery of
the picL and prop and an instinct
i've understanding of all the diff
culties to be encountered in the way
of caveins and falls OF earth. these
skilled miners are able to drive saps
and tunnels with a speed and accu-
racy rot to be attained in the case
CT original in~fantrymen, although
every infantryman is given a thor
ough course of instruction in spade
work during his training.
Part of the miners usefulness, es-
lecially in night work between the
lines. lies in his almost uncanny
ability to see clearly in what to or
binary persons is almost absolute
darkness. This special ability comes
from long working in the half light
of the underground world. 1t is of
the greatest value. not only in sap
ping and t%unneling, but also in the
work of listening patrol in night
attacks, and in reconnaisances.
