Otto Herlocker went out to the Gipsy King mine Saturday, returning Sunday; his purpose being to measure the tunnel, which has been driven by contract, the work having been done by W. H. Rumery, S. Harrison and A. C. Otness. It Is 7$ feet long. It was thought when the contract was let that the ledge would be cut In that distance, this being the opinion of the engineer; but It has not yet been encountered. There is every In dicatlon, however, that the ledge Is only a few feet away, surely not more than ten or fifteen. At a meeting of the directors Monday evening an arrangment was made with the same men to continue the tunnel through the ledge, work on which has been resumed. Where the tunnel now ends the rock Is extremely hard, the formation being Identical with that la the Evening Star, where it was only ten feet thick, adjoining the wall of the ledge. Secretary Herlocker, of the company, says the King is the most at tractive proposition he has seen in many a long day of his mining experience. He brought In a sack full of splendid speci mens of ore, taken from the surface, where the vein has been stripped for a distance of 200 feet. The tunnel work has been done strictly according to the provisions of the contract, and he says a better job could not be desired. La Grande Land Office Buttacsa.
