The weekly footages gained from

brought up to date is as follows:
From the third level, the hanging
wall cross-cut gained 80 feet, now
a total length of "A feet. A new
drift east has been started during
the week and IL feet has been made
therein. From the fourth level,
raise 4O5 is breaking the records for
rich ore, seven fee next to the foot
wall of the raise ~assaying over $50
in average samples.
This raise has been extended 20
feet and is now up a distance of 135
feet from the level. From the fifth
level the south cross-cut has been ad-
vanced a distance of 81 feet and is
now a distance of 292 feet from the
station.
The totals for the above work
show 1O5 feet made since last re-
port. The same average daily ton
mage of ore has been maintained for
the mill. In the White Caps mill a
set of rolls has been added to equip
ment above the rooster for second
airy grinding, following along the
plans to bring the entire product to
a minus six mesh size before passing
into the roast.
A partial cleanup of the zinc
precipitates in the zinc press has
been started so that before long the
first gold bars should reach the mine
from the milling operations.

from the fourth level is progressing
with two shifts Of miners employed.
The face of the drift is now so feet
from the shaft. The east orebody
should be struck at a point 200 feet
or thereabouts. From the third lev
ell, the south cross-cut has been ex-
tended from the point where develop
ment work ceased some months
ago, and at this writing the face of
the cross-cut is $50 feet distant from
the point in the east drift from
where the cross-cut vas started.
The work is to tap two known
free milling orebodies developed
near the surface west and south
from the shaft location. The mining
in the cross-cut is only with one
shift, as the workings are very gasy.
A raise will shortly be extended
from this cross-cut to extend to the
second level and thus assure requi-
site ventilation. The raise will also
serve to pick up the high-grade ore
body developed from the second level
to the surface.

than question of whether it should be
called. The necessity of a special ses-

by the council.

met in the senate chamber this after
