THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE i en n ie e hi ue e e e ie T Te oo h i uie oi ie i e en e e e e e e e h n i Anyone would be justified in referrâ€" ing to the plant and equipment at the Paymaster Mine as a model in every way. From the outside the buildâ€" ings and equipment present a very atâ€" tractive appearance, both good paint and good taste being used to add to the picture, as well as to preserve the various structures from the weather, There is a complete equipment of buildings, from the elegant director‘s lodge to necessary sgheds, and includâ€" ing the mill, refinery, ete., etc. There is a very complete waterâ€" works system on the property. A 1,000â€"gallon tank supplies a pressure equal to that of Timmins or South Porecupine. There is a generous supâ€" ply of hose, and the water system will reach any part of the property for fire protection purposes. ‘‘We are assured of enough water to last until any fire is put out or burned out,"‘ said Managing Director A. 8. Fuller who has reason to be proud of the neat and gcomplete. plant and equipâ€" ment installed under his direction, where efficiency and true economy have gone so truly hand in hand. Another special feature is the elecâ€" tric lighting system. There is a very complete system of wiring, with all wiring covered so there is no danger of fire, and with all necessary parts of the property properly lighted. The mill, refining and all other buildings are painted inside and out, thus adding to their appearance, cleanliness and durability. The strueâ€" tures are all of close to fireâ€"proof type, in view of the _ precautions taken.. A feature of the mill is the natural light system, large windows running along all sides of the buildâ€" ing and leaving the building inside about as light as day,â€"an nnusual matter in mill iconstruction. The windows have steel frames.â€"and swing open easily for full ventilation. The heating system of the mill is another special feature.

The centenary of this event is being marked this coming August by a celebration which is expected to be national in character. The Dominion Government has alâ€" ready intimated its intention, not only of taking part, but of signalizâ€" ing the occasion by extension of its works for the beautification of the capital. â€" The celebration Afself will include historical pageantry and will draw tr?:% the western plains a spectacular "Stampede" as illustraâ€" tive of one of the historical phases of the development of that broad secâ€" tion of the Dominion . In making his journey up the Otâ€" tawa, Colonel By was not planning for the capital of a Dominion but striving to strengthen the defences of one of the outworks of the Britâ€" ish Empire. "During the war of 1312â€"15," says Hamnett P. Hill, in a brief history of the construction of Choice of Dominion Capital To Be Celebrated Plant at Deloro Property is One of the Neatest and Most Complete in the North. No Detail Seems to be Overâ€" looked. Everything Looks Well and Works Well. Equipment Remarkable for Efficiency, Economy, Comâ€" pleteness and Upâ€"toâ€"date Features. . The refinery is another of the well constructed and wellâ€"operated buildâ€" ings on the property. _ Everything here, as elsewhere, is right upâ€"toâ€"date and businessâ€"like. an airâ€"blowing system working over the pipes forees the heat to all parts of the building and assuring at all times a perfectly even temperature in all sections of the building. The plant and equipment in the mill is very complete. By the adopâ€" tion of the unit system present needs are cared for.and at the same time provision is made for enlargement. The mill is now treating 1006 tons per day. Last week the average was 107 tons. capacity is 125 tons and this capacity will be reached in a few days. Although only running about six weeks the mill is not only going along with remarkable smoothness, but it is working to reach its present capacity in a very, short time. The additional units are on hand for the enlargement of the mill to the capaâ€" city of 400 tons. *« This capaweity will be achieved about .July 15th. It will be possible without any alteration or addition,to the present mill bulding. For further enlargement the construcâ€" tion lends itself to convenient and economical â€" extensions. . A special equipment is the New American Filâ€" terâ€"the very latest and best word in the line of filters. The filters are among the many specially improved devices for efficiency and economical operation. Mr. Ronald Vary is the mill superintendent, afd the appearâ€" ance of the mill and its smooth and effective operation twentyâ€"four hours in the day are tributes not only to the equipment but to the skill of the superintendant. § TIMMINS, QONTARIO, THURSDAY, JUNE 3rd, 1926 the Rideau Canal, "the British auâ€" thorities experienced much difficulty in attempting the defence of the western part of the province. This was owing to the difficulties of transporting men and supplies from Montreal to Kingston, because of the rapids on the St. Lawrence River. They were also faced with the danâ€" ger of a U. 8. army blocking proâ€" gress tup the river by seizing some of the islands near Kingston. The cost of transport from Montreal to Kingston was also excessiva, being fiftyâ€"four shillings per cwt. e oC w w EOW This was the problem which Col. By came out to Canada to solve. He had spent nine years in this counâ€" try after 1802, when he had been enâ€" trusted with the construction of the Martello towers at Que®ec and the rebuilding of the Citadel, and he had also superintended the construc~ tion of the Cedars Canal near Montâ€" real. The â€" task of building the canal to connect the St. Lawrence and the Ottawa Rivers, 126 miles in length, through uninhabited country, was gigantic at that stage of the deâ€" velopment of the country, and its successful completion stamps its builder as an engineer of high rark. What specially impresses .the visiâ€" tor to the Paymaster Mine is the comâ€" plete efficiency to the smallest detail, combined with an eye for true ecoâ€" nomy throughout. Thé best is conâ€" sidered as none too good, but there is no waste or extravagance apparent anywhere. A very complete system of sampling is maintained not only underground but in the mill and this suggests that the mill will be kept busy on profitable ore for several enâ€" largements ‘of capacity from present 1ndlcat10ns, and ‘"‘the ~surface is searcely seratched as yet,"‘‘ as may be said about the mines in general of the Poreupine. In a recent report (Genâ€" eral Manager| Clement said: *‘‘The mine and erushing plant can bury the mill with ore,"‘ There is a proven bhody of ore of gbod commerâ€" cial grade 60 feet wide. While the property is considered as a proposiâ€" tion with a large tonnage of , lowâ€" grade ore that can be profitably hanâ€" dled through the efficiency of the plant, free gold and highâ€"grade are being encountered at all workings. Here, for instance, is an extract from a recent report by the General Manaâ€" ger: ‘*The. 119 No. 2 Raise, which is about 270 feet east and 200 feet south of the main shaft, advanced about 50 feet., This has been on the upper or north contact of the porphyry for some time. The porphyrp eontains good values, and in the schisv ,» and near the contact thereas a very heavy mineralization for at least 5 to 6 feet, and more in some places. â€" This. raise is nearing the surface, being about 35 feet on the dip, and is driven on a 60 deg. angle. All breakage is being Three years after Bytown became Ottawa, it was chosen as the capital of the old Province of Canada. The coming of railways has superâ€" seded it and rendered it practically useless as a carrier of traffic; but it rendered valuable service in earlier days for the settlement of the Proâ€" vince of Ontario, both east and west. 0CP P PC The centenary celebration this summer will last two weeks, from August 16 to 28. The first weekâ€" August 16 to 21â€"will be devoted particularly to the centenary proâ€" gram, which will include an hisâ€" torical pageant illustrating outstandâ€" ing periods and events in the hisâ€" tory of the capital. During the same period the Edmonton Sampede will give a daily program; while arâ€" rangements are also being made for holding the Rudder International Power Boat races for two days of that week. Plans are not fully comâ€" pleted for the celebration, but amonsg other proposals under conâ€" sideration are the erectiocn of a monuâ€" ment to Colonel By. The Dominion Government is also preparing plans for the extension of the Driveway which is such an attractive feature of the city. sent to the mill, and some very high assays from specimens have been obâ€" tained, running as high as $130.00. Of the channel samples,taken during the past two weeks, seven have rangâ€" ed from $5.20 to $19.20. Two short drifts run east and west at 40 feet above the level show heavy sulphides. This territory is in one of our regular stope areas as laid out, and mining will be commenced as soon as the raise is through to surface.‘‘ Here is another paragraph from the same report :â€"â€" "‘We have, since the first of the month, commenced to, slash on a xeeâ€" tion around the 220 south crosseut, 200 feet east and 140, feet south of the main shaft. Thls is to test out the soâ€"called ‘plum‘ territory, and we will get a horizontal sectionâ€" here. which is about the center of one of the stopes projection to: be opened above the 300 level. A portion of this break is high grade, specimens without visible gold running over $40.00 and one specimenâ€" running $239.00. We broke down a portion of one of the ‘plums‘ formerly driven through, and havessome very spectaâ€" cular free gold over a considerable area. This enriched section appears, from drifts, raises and diamond drillâ€" ing, to extend from the surface to at least below the 300, not being develâ€" oped below that level as yet."‘‘ ‘*The mill,"‘ says Mr. Clement‘s reâ€" port, ‘‘is doing excellent work. Yesâ€" terday‘s filter cake, our tails ran 23 cents and the barren solution only 1% cents. The rod mill ran 24 hours and the filter which took care of the tonnage in this time, running on lowâ€" est speed, ran 21 hours. ~The cerushâ€" ing plant is crushing the tonnage in about 5 hours." We have had to make a homeâ€"made magnet to take the ‘tramp‘ steel, such as broken drillâ€" shanks, ete., from the Kennedy Gyraâ€" tory feed, using a small D.C. generaâ€" tor already on hand.‘‘ + Best Prices on all Goods Purchased.
