Messrs. McNicol and Haas have a
force of men al. work driving a tunnel
on the Great llesper, Smith's camp.
The tunnel which will liejput iu quiteu

assessment work but. will also, il is believed, put tlie property into suleahle

visible iu Ihe claim, and all lhat is
necessary is to prove ils deplli.
