DEVELDPMENT AND EQUIPMENT.
Two otthe fourteen mining properties owned by this company, The. Black Wonder. and
WestEhd. have beenquite extensively developed, the former having been opened up to a
depthiof 375 feet, with over 2500 feet of tunnelling on the vein, from which earload ship-
ments'have beenmade netting the company from $50 to $150 per ton. A 700-foot cross-cut
:tunnel is now being driven (367 feet’already completed), which will open up The Black :Won-
der-mine at a: depth of 636 feet, from which point, tunnels will be extended to open up fie
.Weit“ End and Olive mines, and, when completed. will cut the vein of the Olive at a depth
ofgabout 1500 feet, and-.the West End .over 1100_ feet, thus putting all three mines in condi-
monum- 0 large daily output for many years. and insuring handsome dividends, which are ex-
pected,“ begin by April 1, 1896. In addition to completing The Black Wonder crosscut tunnel

_ Black Wonder vein consists of an enormous cyke of tmchyte, which completely illls an enor-
mous fissure in the granite of which the mountain is composed. The main ore chute in- The
Black Wonder is about 200 feet long, the vein from two to eight feet in thickness, and has
been opened by tunnels, shafts and levels to the depth of 375 feet. With so complete a mill
and abundant resources for obtaining ore, both from their own mines and the rich surroundlus
count , there seems to be no possible reason why the operations of The Black Wonder and
West (1 Gold Mining Company will not be a perfect financial success.”

the tunnels, cross-cuts. entries, levels and stopOS. The vein is large and well defined. and is
beyonddoubt a true fissure. The umpuufiof ore would seem to be inexhaustible. I have no
hesitation in saying that with a well am: properly constructed mill the mine will continue to

After the injunction had been served,
the Street Railway company succeeded
in having it modified to the extent- that
they were permitted'to go ahead with
the laying of the tracks but were not al-
lowed to run any care over the line.

the tracks and otherwise equipping the
road ready for immediate service.

How the Rails Were Laid.
On Saturday the Street Railway com-
pany had their men at work laying the
rails around the Mahackemo hotel cor-
ner at South Norwalk, to connect the
main line with the tracks running
down Railroad Square to the depot.
Rapid progress was being made when
Col. Russell Frost, representing the D.
P. Ely heirs, served an injunction on
the company stopping the work. The
injunction restrained the putting: down
of rails and the running of cars over
the tracks, and was issued by Judge
Curtis on the ground that pla‘fis had
been altered without a public hearing
having been given on the change.
Alter the injunction was served the
Street Railway company secured the
serv1ces of City Attorney Light, who
prepared u'copy of the action of the
South Norwalk Council,which was pre-
sented to J udgc Curtis by Perry, Perry
& Hill, attorneys for the company, and
the injunction was modified so as to al-
low the rails to be laid.
As soon as news of the modification
was received by the Street Railway
company, incandescent electric lights
were strung about the hotel corner and
men were put to work laying the rails.
Work was continued Saturday night
and all day Sunday before the rails
were laid and the overhead wire strung.

.UNC'ONSCIOUS in THE 'ru NNEL.
BetWeen 3 and 4 o’clock Sunday
morning, the attention of Ofiicer Ken-
ney was attracted by cries of “Police 1
Police! 1” on Wall street. He was on
Main street at the time, but hastened
around the corner and on Wall street
metaman who proved to be a track
walker: named Manning who is employ-
ed on this section of the Danbury
branch of the Consolidated railroad.
He informed the officer that there
was a dead man in the tunnel. Kenney
at once called Officer Bartram, and the
three men at. once started for the tub-
nel, Bartram on the way securing a
lantern at Dunn’s stables. _
About seventy-five feet above the
station platform, close to one side of
the tracksfa man was found, lying with
one arm under his head and his other
hand in his pocket. This fact led Ken-
ney to believe that the man was still
alive, »
He peered with the aid of a lantern in-
to the man’s face but Was unable to rec-
ognize him. As the officer straightened
himself up, a voice from the supposed
corpse saving, “Helios. John, don’t you
know me ?” The officer looked again,
and materially aided by the man’s voice
recognized him as John White, perhaps
better known as “Doc” :White.
On finding that. the man was not dead
the trackwaiker, with a look of disgust
on his face, turned on his heel and went
at a rapid pace up the track.
The officers then lifted the “dead-
man” to his {feet and managed to get
him on to the platform. His clothes
were covered with blood, and it was
found that he had received two or three
ugly wounds on the back of his' head.
His face was also covered with blood
and mud and he was altogether a
wretched looking sight,
He claimed that while walking down
Water street Saturday night, he was as-
saulted with a stone in the hands of a
man whom he recognized as an old
friend. He was unable, however, to
tell how be managed to get into the
tunnel where he wa found.
Oflicer Kenney suggested that he. go
to the hospital and have his injuries
treated but this he refused to do, and
he was taken to police headquarters,
and Dr. Baldwin called, who thought
it would be better to bring the man to
his office. He was then taken there
and the doctor found two ugi y cuts on
the back of his head, and a. large swel-
ling from a contusion. He took sever-
al stitches in the cuts and closed them
up, and dressed the contusion.
He then expressed a wish to go to
Dunn’s livery stable, .and was taken
there as he refused to no home, While
sitting near a stove in the ofl‘ice he
suddenly got. up and before he could be
stopped went outside and pitched head-
long down the manure run a distance
of perhaps ten feet but fortunately
landed in a soft place and escaped fur-
ther injury.
After a time ”Phil” Petrie prevailed
upon him to start for his home on Cross
street. While on the way they were
met by “Jimmy” Lendrigan who was
suffering from an attack of the “trem-
bles” and White promptly reached
around in his hip pocket and took a
bottle of what he called ‘igggd stuff”
from which “Jimmy took a hearty
swig. How it was that the bottle had
remained intact during W hite's experi-
ence in the tunnel is a mystery.
The officers made an investigation at
the spot where White claimed to have
been assaulted but failed to find evi-
dence of an assault having been com-
mitted. They then made a thorough
search from Water street up the tracks
to where he found, but. there was not the
slightest trace of blood on the opposite
side of the tracks from where he laid,
and also another where he was lying.
His story of an assault is not credited
by the police, who incline to the belief
that he started for home by way of the
tunnel while in an intoxicated condition
fell down and was struck by a passing
train. He was seen on the street as
late as eleven o’clock
Soon after being taken to Police
Headquarters he fished a package of
cigarettes from his pocket with his
blood stained fingers, imprints of which
were visible on the door this morning,
and complaceutly lighting it, crossed
his legs and with an expression of “at
your pleasure, oificers,” pufi'ed away.
White gained considerable notoriety
sometime since by making foolhardy
jumps from the Merrill building, and
also by an alleged attempt at suicide
from the Wall street bridge.
Found Stolen Property.
The Stamford police Sunday night
raided a resort kept by Charles Carpen-
ter and wife in the lower part of that
city, and resorted to by colored peo- -
pie. In trunks and closets were found
silverware, clothing and linen, some of
which was stolen from Stamford resi-
dences. Don Juan St. Carlos was also
arrested at the house on suspicion of
being one of the gang, but was released
as no evidence was found against him.
Lots of Life In Them Yet.
People whose forty-fifth birthday is be
hind them fancy that their power to re-
sistdisease is lessened because a cohgh
sticks to them a few days. They change
their ideas when they have tried the Pin:
'eola Balsam for it goes right to the spot
and makes the irritated throat well. The
resinous substances in the pine and other
trees will stop a cough every time if com-
bined as they are in Ely’s Pineola Bal-
sam, which all wide-a-wake druggists
have for sale at 250.
