As it is claimed this quartz c.-iu he mined and milled lor less than $2.00 per ton, and as there are thousands of tons in sight it will be readily seen that the proposition is a remarkably promising one.

Good progress is heiiiK made with the upraise frnm the M foot level of the new workings of the Mother Lode mine, in Deadwood eamp, to connect with the winze frnm the nld workings above. This upraise is nil iu nre of good value. When it is completed there will be about 280 feet vertical of stoping ground opened up hei ween the new 200-foot level and the old crosscut tunnel, As the oi e outcrops some 2H. feet above the old timuel there should ho more than 51)0 feet of hacks to yield ore, This does not by any means include all the ore available for the main shaft is in ore all the way down to if depth of 120 feet below the drift at the tfXI-fooi level. The mils are already laid on the branch railway line to within a mile of thn mine. As soon after the tracklayers reach the mine us tbe ral'way company will accept ore for shipment about 100 tons of Mother Lode ore will he shipped to a smelter, probably to Trail, for a hulk lest. A good margin of profit will.it is anticipated. Im shown hy this test, the sjvtematic plan of assaying followed In connection with this mine giving a good idea of the average value of (Jm oie mined.

It was formerly known as Eholt's, after the original pre-emptnr of the land. It was purchased from Mr. L. Kholt in 1801! by Capt. It. C. Adams, of Montreal, P. Q., and several associates, The original townsite was platted in 18!M by Messrs. Kirk k Ritchie, provincial land surveyors, now of Rossland. Thetown was named Hm nda-y Ciiy, Imt as another place had u.read : been similarly mimed a new name had 'ii In* found for tbis town Ivfore registration could he secured, Oapt, Ailnm- eventually decided upon tin- name of Midway for the reason Ihal ibe town is situate about, midway in British Ooiumbia lietween the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. The Hint Townsite Agent was the lale Mr. II. P. Palmerston and the Hrst sale of lots was made in 1%I3 to Mr. John Douglas, who still resides in the town. A Picturesque Townsite. Midway certainly is a most picturesque and he ill! if ul site for a lown.
