Myrtle Creek. Or., Pec. 8. Another
shipment of ore from the ll. ill mine la
to be made aoon. thla belns the third
oar load aent out by the present owners.
A shaft la belns aunk on a vein that
holds to a, width of seven to nine feet,
and 18 Inches of this on the footwall la
saved to ship. Returns have been high
ly satisfactory, one lot bringing 12,000
net to the owners and the other not a
arrest deal less. The batch ready to. ahlp
seems to be a higher crade and will no
doubt yield a better profit. Shlpmenta
are made to the Bel by people, San Fran
cisco. The Hall, located 11 miles from
Myrtle Creek, Is s new property, owned
by John and James Hall and John Rice.
The work being done at thla time Is an

a depth of about to feet. Drifts will be
run on the 7i-foot level. Meat of the

from the sinking operations. With drlfta
extended on either side of the shaft, and
toping ground opened In auch a ahoot
as the shaft Indicates, a better produc
tion la aasured in the near future.
The fact that an unknown property,
developed In a very modeat way, can pro
duce so handsomely In mere develop
ment work, has excited much Interest,
and will result in more aggressive de
velopment of several good propositions
In this district which have received ln
aufflclent attention In the past.

eenta per pound a better dynamite than
Is now selling at from IS to 18 cents

forth the Balaley-Elkhorn will be In po

able to ebaew of emergency to prevent
the mine from filling. Many operators
hesitate to put the pumps on electric
power because of the uncertalntlea yet
attending operation oi this claas of
power plants, unleaa there Is sn aux
iliary power at hand, or the pumping ca
pacity la so fsr shead of the flow that
pumps will not drown for many hours
after a break In machinery. But uatng
electricity for the hoist, pumps, and at
the mill, the management at the Bals
ley will have the full efficiency of the
compressor for the long crosacut tunnel
and In other development work.
The Rock creek power plant, from
which the Balsley waa to receive energy,
has been ordered closed until the offi
cials comply with Interior department
forest reserve regulations. This com
nllance Is formal, constating of the sign
ing of certain papers that hsve been
neglected, and the plant will no doubt be
runnlns in a few days- The effect of
this will probably delsy the Bslsley.
