The principal work is being done on the
Alica Belle, on the southerly part of the
place Mr. Blundell has opened up this ground
and found excellent ore, A tunnel was run,
and afterwards a shaft sunk. The: shaft is
being worked now, ten -or twelve men being
employed there. Water power is used, a
small hoisting works erected, and the shaft . to ten feet,
is down 100 feet, at which level drifting was .
commenced. There is a great deal of water .
to pump, and this has retarded progress
somewhat, of course.
A drain tunnel has been started at Deer!
Creek, half a mile away, to drain the Alice
Belle. This tunnel was started below the
«ld Murchie drain tunnel, and will be run
1,800 feet. The two men who were set to
work there had not run far when they struck
quartz, aud they are now taking out good
ore as they go along,
About 100 yards west of the Murchie
Company’s hoisting works Dave Voss is
prospecting a spur of the Big Blue, and has
met with remarkable success, He employs
two men and has a shaft down seventy feet,
and during the last thirty days has taken
out about seventy tons of ore, Mr, Voss
has a lease on this piece of ground, and is
doing very well indeed,
Garwood & Co.,-are working on tribute
just east of the Murchie works. . They have
sunk a shaft right alongside oi the old office,
and are now down a little over 100 feet, A
dump of over eighty tons of quartz shows
that they have not been idle, and they are
now taking only waiting fur the mill to start
to have a crushing.
All these claims belong to the Long. S tar
Company, and Mr. Blundell has leased them
out in order to get the Property developed.
All have been successful so far, striking ore
at slight depth, and it is claimed that most
of this rock will pay $20 per ton.

used to handle the water, and in this mine
it is uved at the greatest depth known, and
works very successfully,
On the surface everything is changed. All
the old buildings have been torn down, and
anew and substantial mill and hoisting
works erected. The hoisting works is a
commodious one, and the machinery is’ of

@ ruin, aud a great deal of work had to be
done on it. W.J. O: gan is bossing the job,
aad has half a dozen men at work, They
have put in a Pelton water wheel, made of
wood, with twelve-inch buckets—probably
the largest ever seen here. The company
has free water, so that cuts no figure. Anew
«dam was built in the creek, the ditch fixed
up, and while there is only forty feet fall, a
twenty-inch pipe and lots of water wili give
them plenty of power. Mr, Organ expects
to have the mill in shape by next week, and
there will be 250 tons of ore Waiting for it
by that time.The indications are that the Murchie is to
