BP DeNoon, who has ‘a lease of the old Derbec tunnel, is doing preparatory work, and will soon have a full crew breasting out gravel. The Last Chance Company have at last reached the bedrock, and expect to strike gravel within the next few feet. The Delhi mine, at Grizzly Ridge, is running 30 tons of ore daily through their 8 stamp mill. The ledge is tapped by a tunnel,and there being no hoisting or pumpng to be done, the ore is mined and milled at a small cost. Ore of the value of $2.50 a ton can be worked at a profit. The ledge ranges in width from 8to 16 feet and being of a soft nature is very friable and easily reduced. A tunnel is being run to tap the ledge at alow depth, and where good backs can be obtained. Near Columbia Hill there are many quartz ledges which need only exploitation and some capital te commence operations to develop large mines. The Milton Company is prospecting for drift gravel near Cherokee, and from present indications will soon have enough ground opened to require a large force of men. The large ledges between San Juan and Sweetland are attracting attention, and considerable work towards development is being not been opened to any considerable depth. >> — —-—-——‘Died Suddenly. ee nouncing the sudden death o ter-General of Canada. author of the well-known political novel éntitled ‘‘Prof. Conant.” Two or three years ago he visited his relatives at this city and during his stay made many warm friends among our citizens.

BP DeNoon, who has ‘a lease of the old Derbec tunnel, is doing preparatory work, and will soon have a full crew breasting out gravel. The Last Chance Company have at last reached the bedrock, and expect to strike gravel within the next few feet. The Delhi mine, at Grizzly Ridge, is running 30 tons of ore daily through their 8 stamp mill. The ledge is tapped by a tunnel,and there being no hoisting or pumpng to be done, the ore is mined and milled at a small cost. Ore of the value of $2.50 a ton can be worked at a profit. The ledge ranges in width from 8to 16 feet and being of a soft nature is very friable and easily reduced. A tunnel is being run to tap the ledge at alow depth, and where good backs can be obtained. Near Columbia Hill there are many quartz ledges which need only exploitation and some capital te commence operations to develop large mines. The Milton Company is prospecting for drift gravel near Cherokee, and from present indications will soon have enough ground opened to require a large force of men. The large ledges between San Juan and Sweetland are attracting attention, and considerable work towards development is being not been opened to any considerable depth. >> — —-—-——‘Died Suddenly. ee nouncing the sudden death o ter-General of Canada. author of the well-known political novel éntitled ‘‘Prof. Conant.” Two or three years ago he visited his relatives at this city and during his stay made many warm friends among our citizens.

From the tables of position published by the Berlin Observatory, . ! it seemed probable that at the time of greatest brilliancy, during the first week in May, both comets would be visible to the naked eye, high up in the northwest and early in the evening. They have, however, failed to realize these anticipations ; they certainly have not become the promised ‘“‘conspicuous objects,’’ and it is, indeed, extremely doubtful whether they have anywhere been seen without the aid of a telescope. Unless there should be some sudden and unexpected increase of brilliancy during this week, Loth Comet Fabry and Comet Barnard/1 will simply add two new names to the long list of telescopic comets. The two other comets which have been recently discovered in the same general quarter of the sky are as yet remote and-undeveloped, and therefore, of small general interest.. an) Notwirastanpine much is said about the importance of a bloodpurifying medicine, possibly the matter has never claimed your serious attention. now!
