The tunnel is now in about seventy feet and the va lues are sHIt imilrovinur. F. II. Taylor was in town last week to make arrangements for continuing the work and present plans ar for .shipment of' forty on of are taken out in the de- velojlment work in Ihe tunnel. Mr. Taylor Is confident the ore can be shipped without milling and show a good profit. r.ver jjlncei Ihe properly was localed Taylor has cnnsllentl .refused to talk deal, -but it is un lerslood that a price has been asked by a wealthy mining corporation and thut the price has been et at 9200.000 with to per cent Jn cash following two week allowx-d Jcr sampling.
