WILKINSON, Prop. MEDFORD - - OREGON, ' —Phone 214— Electric Dredge on the Read. The electric dredge which was un loaded here a couple of weeks ago for use in placer mining at the Centennial mine, between here and Gold Hill, was started for the mine last Thursday evening in tow o f two big traction engines which had been secured for the job. All of the smaller parts of the big machine had been previously hauled to the mine by team but the main part of the mass o f 3teel and iron, weighing some 32 tons, could only be moved on its own wheels and by the power of stqam. Every bridge and culvert on the road had to be reinforced with cribbing and substantial braces and still one weeel o f the cumbersome ma chine went through Griffin creek bridge early on the trip. The machine, which is more after the style of a steam shovel than a dredge will be installed at the Centenn ial as soon as possible and the company in charge expect good returns from the venture as soon as the plant is fairly in running order. The dirt will be scooped up by the big shovel and dumped into a sluice box where a sufficient head of water will be running to separate the gold from the grave'. This is the first mining device of this kind to be put in operation in this section of the west and its work will be watched with in terest by mining men and others inter ested in the development of this section of Oregon.
