(By Special Correspondent)
The mill was temporarily shut
down until the production of brok
en ore approximated a small re
serve,' but within a period of four
or five days, resumed operation.
It bids fair to run for some time
on what ore is in storage and is
being broken.
The management is making pre
paration to augment the crew this
month and the old bunkhouse, un
used since the completion of the
new dormitory, is being renovated
for occupancy.
The grade of ore being produced
is especially rich, three stopes be
ing mined at the present time and
all carrying uniform ore that will
average over $100 a ton.
The extraction now is better than
ever before obtained in the Willow
Creek district tailings, averaging
around 75c a ton. Hitherto, some
mines in this district have had as
high as a five dollar tailing from
their mills.

There is a rumor that the Thorpe
properties is to be exploited dur
ing the coming season by Outside
capital. Development work is to be
undertaken and if conditions war
rant, a mill will be installed. There
is a small reduction plant on the
property now but not efficient
enough to warrant its being used
beyond the prospect stage.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
The property above the old
Gold Bullion mine on Craiggy
Creek, belonging to the Bartholfs’
is to receive some attention this
season in the shape of a prospect
tunnel. The owners are confident
that they have an extention of the
Gold Bullion lead. This being the
case a mine is assured, as the Bul
iion was one of the richest and
most consistent producers this
camp has had.

There is about three feet of
snow here but the weather is nice
and clear.
