r. j. Yarbrough, of Spokane, one OF
the directors of the Guelph Mining &

Mr.. Yarbrough states that operations
are progressing fine at the Guelph. The
hoist and compressor taken IN last
fall are now running In good shape,
after much delay from one cause OF

from the necessity of piping water for
the use of the compressor, bringing II
from the upper tunnel distance OF
about 1000 feet. The compressor Is
driven by electric power.

there are strong indications that tn
ledge is very near and that it VIII b.
