.SHATTUCK MILL TO BE BLOWN IN NEXT
 WEEK FOR TEST RUN

For the purpose of making a test run of fifteen days or possibly longer, the Shattuck miHs. situated at Lowell, will be blown in within the next week. Workmen have been busy for the past week preparing for the starting of machinery. and the big mill will begin work as soon as possible.
 Several bodies of good ore have been encountered on the upper lev els of the Shattuck mine where ex- ploration work has been progressing over the past three weeks, since the mine has been unwatered. The lower levels of the mine are still too hot to permit workmen entering them The mine was closed down some two months or more ago, when fire threatened the entire underground workings and when it was necessary to Hood the mine to the 7OO-foot level to conquer the flames.
 The test run of the mill has been determined on to further prove the process which has been installed for the handling of StlIe Shattuck ores. Upon the degree of success which is attained at this time will depend whether or not the mill will continue in operation following the fifteen day period. e
 In the meantime. near the Shattuck mill, water which flooded the lower levels and which tested the capacity of the pumps, has been lowered to a point Eelow the 17O0-foot level Dur ing the past ten days exploration of the rich find of three weeks ago has been prosecuted. and sufficient ground has been moved to determine the permanency of the ore. Several crosscuts have been driven through the body and it has been determined that at least a large ore body has been encountered. It is impossible vet to announce how great is the find

DOUGLAS SUEING FOR S11,OO0 ALLEGED DUE
 ON DELINQUENT TAX

.DUGLAS, June 5.-Tomorrow, at Tombstone, Judge MeAlister, sitting for Judge Lockwood, will hear the case of the city of Douglas versus ap- proximstely S0O defendants in default tax suits. As a matter of fact. the time has passed when the defendants have any rights left, for a year Or so ago they were summoned to appear and show cause why the city should not settle their lots in order to col lect delinquent taxes. None appeared. though nearly 70 individuals did come in and pay up the delinquent taxes, and penalty. and thus have the suits dismissed.
 Action will be taken tomorrow in the case of the 800 or more who have made no move to pay the taxes. For convenience the suits have been grouped and will be acted on in g body The suits range in amount from n cents to S2O0, and total ap- proximately S11, 1,OOO. They were filed nearly two years ago and cover de linquent tax cases from the year 1917 to 1916. inclusive.
 After the property is forfeited to the city, which will probably be the outcome in all of the cases tomorrow, the various lots will be sold by the sheriff at a tax sale and after the city secures the money it has sued for. the remainder in each case will be left in the hands of the sheriff. subject to the order of the original owner, if he can be located.
 Attorney Bruce Stephenson is handling the cases for the city, hay ing been appointed tax attorney for the city by the city council at the re- quest of CIty' Attorney Boyle.
