A 6O-foot bored well has been

now completed will provide storage
for a gravity system serving the

With completion of the compress

mouth OF the tunnel will be within
few hundred feet OF the millsite
on the side of the hill below which
the company owns a large tract Of
ground for tailings. The tunnel
will extend under the hill, giving q
maximum depth of 1900 feet In
backs. It will be an electric opera
ton throughout with electric
muckers and electrically operated
cars.
The immediate plan. according to-
Mr.. Pulver, is to drive the tunnel
2 900 feet which will afford enough
ore to justify construction of the
first 1,OO0-ton unit OF the mill.
Work on the tunnel is expected
to start on or before September l.
In its eventual development the
mine and mill are expected to give
to several thousand
men, rivaling the famous Home
stake mine in South Dakota in the
extent OF operations.
Identified with the operations
are several men Of prominence in
both mining and Northwest com
mercial circles. The general sup
and a trustee of thel
corporation is Angus b. Mcleod
Of Butte, widely known operator
who was superintendent OF the
Butte & Superior mines for more
han 20 years during which time
Butte & Superior paid $4,000, 900
In dividends. He states that the tun-

needed more of this romance and
song.
Looking at the st. Louis news
papers of last July % the inn
preston seems to be that Robert
Stolz, the VienneSe composer, has
written at least six whistleable
tunes for Venus in Silk" which
comes to the National Theater
Monday, October 7, for one week.
ANY of the patrons could hum
a few bars as they went away,
the luckier beings can recall two
or three songs even this morn
ing" wrote the critic on the
St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
There are, for instance, the
creamy rich Il Ask Not Who
You Are" (this is a mixed ident-
ity case and the heroine is only
being herself, the romantic
Eyes That Are Smiling" Chats
how the hero pays Off; "You
Are the One" (good for any
body to somebody; "Sweetly 1
Spoke" Gust for good measure) {;
"Ducky" COMEDY bit, and just
what it says).
Lester O'Keefe has supplied
the lyrics to the Stolz melodies.
Two of these songs, IF I Were
A Bandit" and RosZa Sander"
are said to have a martial swing
that fit well into the parts of
the adventures and the daring
bandit. Pretty good, say the
wiser critics, for Stolz, who also
goes in strongly for waltzes.
The popular 1.-TWO Hearts in
Waltz Time" an earlier triumph
of Composer Stolz. is promised to
echo here and there through the
music. But those fortunate
enough to see "Venus In Silk" at
the st. Louis Municipal outdoor
theater last summer seem to lean
toward humorous ditty called
play With Me" in preference to
the celebrated waltz.

a star in the cinema doesn't mean
that she does not retain a great
spirit of mother love, particularly
in the case of Joan Blondell. Her
great affection for her young son

Plus her regular contract salary

the equivalent of the above-men-

to forfeit the bonus in order to be
able to leave the studio at S
o'clock every day so she might go
home and be with her youngster
at least half an hour before he
went to bed. Regardless of what
happens in the future, whether or
not she will receive e. bonus, she
will leave each day at S until her
child is we'll grown up. Now that's
really something in these days of
money grabbing.
