Some very Interesting development

tie lack OF miners is quite an impedi'

Sinking the shaft to greater depth
has been temporarily discontinued on
the Tonspah Extension, pending the
arrival OF the immense Nordberg hoist
thai was ordered ten months ago, but
thesshipment of which has been de-
Iayed on account of the Nordberg Man

stoned by the government and required
to sidetrack all orders for private con
Germs and TO devote their energies
to the manufacture Of marine engines
The, coicrete foundation for this en-
ormous hoist has bee nbullt for some
time and the 110-foot steel head-frame
Is on the ground and will be erected
next week. The loaded cage will weigh
about 10000 pounds, which will give
