They took along picnic outfit and feasted the boys at the camp as we'll as them selves. A number of stockholders were in the party. o. B. Marshall was the spokesman for the mining group and said that the property is showing great improvement, the vein getting larger and the values increas- ing. He says that the property has doubled in both respects in the last three weeks and he feels that it is now getting to where it has a right to attract attention, and that devel- opment is all it needs to make it a mine.
 The shaft is being sunk by J. E. Norman under contract, and has been put down 10 feet since the contract ors started about 10 days ago. Some dead work had to be done, but every thing is moving fine now. The money for the work is being raised by the sale of stock, most of it selling locally.
