ROSSLAND EVENING RECORD, NOVEMBER 18, 1808.

Mica Mining.

“The mining of mica is the poctry of
mining,” says Godey’s. “It is impossi-
ble to conceive ofa more exciting and
fascinating employment. The vein of
mica-bearing quartz, lying between
rocka of diferent formation, has been
found, The cap rock has been blasted
away. Little ‘nigger-heads’ — small
lumps of crumbling mica mixed with
slate and ether rock—are growing plen-
tiful. The rock is carefully examined
by the experienced miner, and all indi-
cations are that mica will soon be found.
A blast is made. The rock and debrie
are cleared away, and therein the bot-
tom iea block of the precious stuff, a
ragged corner showing itself black and
glittering in the-white quartz in which
itis imbedded. With the tipsof the
fingers the miner gently and affection-
ately brushea away the dirtand small
stones which partly cover it. Its thick-
ness is carefully noted, its position in
the rock is learnedly discussed, and
many a speculation indulged in as to its
size and quality. The holeis quickly

drilled, the small blast is made, just ti

loesening the rock, and all eagerly crowd
around, as one of the men with his pick
pulls away the broken stone. There it
lies, a black, glittering mass, Mor 10
inches thick and irregular in shape, as
all blocks of mica are. A good sized
block, and if solid end of a perfect cleay-
age, will be worth many dollara. The
excitement is not allayed, however, and

* will not be until the block is split open
and we know how it looks onthe in-
side.. It is a very bad thing -to split
open a block at the mine, and contrary
to all rules, for there is danger that the
fine, polished faces will be scratched and
asheet—thin, indeed, but valuable—
will have to be taken offgnd thrown
away.”

UMFRIED GOT ONE FALL,

for his money and y
one fall.
Moth weighed 178 pounds and- Um-

adversary. Moth is built something on
the Fi style of

tall and angular with massive arms and
long step Jadders. Umfried is compact-
ly built and sustained his reputation
for pluck and strategy, but he was
clearly outclassed. Still the contest was
stubbornly fought, arid the reault wag at
times uncertain. .

Max Carter was chosen referee and his

dicisions were fair and indicated excel-
lent knowledge of the rules that govern
wrestling. He was alert and it kept him
jumping sideways at times to keep tabs
on the two seething masses of humanity
onthe mat. Pat White was a swift
time keeper, notwithstanding that he
used a stop watch.
The first bout was catch-as-catch can,
Moth secured a fall in 14 minutes and
50 seconds. - Umfried instantly bridged
but the referee gave Moth the decision
which was considered fair. In thie
bout both men made a. pretty .exhibi-
ion,

‘fhe second was under tlie Grece-Ro-
man rules, and in that Umfried was no
match for his alert opponent. He kept
away continuously, and the whole plan
of battle was-on the defensive. The
bout was a long drawn one, at the last
Moth, after both men had been on the
mat for perhaps a minute, got Umfried
down on a flying roll. Time,19 minutes
and ten seconds,

The thirdbout, which was “under the
catch-as catch-can rules, was a swift
one. After some lively work, Umfried
by the aid of a strangle, got Moth down
on the mat, and a moment later, with a
hody hold and a halch, _ he
forced both of Moth’s shoulders squarly
to the floor and held them there.
Time, three minutes,

Inthe 4th Greco-Roman, Moth used
the strangle hold to a decision. Um-
fried was carried from the mat uncon-
scious but quickly revived. He had
lost the contest but Moth to

On account of the patronage our brokers

not be so bad if we were not shut out of

The main tunnel, known as tunnel
No, 2, is now in about 410 feet, which
gives a vertical depth of 160 feet. This

tunnel has been run its full length right

along the vein. There were two breaks
in the vein in the shape of dykes, but
the work was continued through them
and the vein followed. About 300 feet
from the nouth of tunnel No. 2 a winze
is being sunk, which is now down about
50 feet, which is algo running in good
ore, The average width of the ore body
in this winze is three feet.

There ia another winze in tunnel No.
2 about 100 feet in from the main en-
trance, the face of which is in solid ore.
Work has been stopped on this for the
present. The new tunnel which was re-
cently begun on the eastern end of the
property, is now in some 40 feet, and
good showings are being encountered.
When this tunnel is extended to the ex-
treme west end of the claim as it is in-
tended to do, a vertical depth of some-
thing over 700 feet will be obtained. It
is the further intention of the manage-
ment te connect the winze now being
wofked from a point 300 feet in from the
mouth of the No. 2 tunnel, with the new
tunnel in the east end, which is 200 feet
lower down than tunnel No 2. This
when will give di
air ventelation to the whole workings of
the property. Excellent ors is being
taken both from the winze and tunnel
No. 2.

There are 26 men working at present
