This week on the 15-- 4 drift, off the foot wall and running parallel with the other big ore bodies east and west of this big bonanza, another fine ore body, carrying high values, was opened up. The extent of same has not yet been determined, but that it is a monster, so to speak, has been proved by development already done. East and west, wherever new drifts have been run, ore is encountered, and-thiis likely to be the case when time and help will permit the prospeccting of the north and south of this marvel of the east section the Park Utah. wealth-producin- g crew will take a vacation until after the Fourth, by which time it is hoped the water flow will have diminished. The road to the mine is, it is said, in better condition than ever before. Since the middle of June it has been widened in the narrowest places, graded where the center was high and filled in with rock and shale where the riits .were deep. Auto trucks are now running clear through to the bins. Lot 25, consisting of 63 tons, was delivered to the Murray smelter during the week and the smelter platform holds about tons toward Lot 26. Contractors have blasted several rounds in the west drift along the Dutchman fissure. The drift now Is slightly off the fissure to the north, yet it shows large quantities of iron and the drilling is hard. It will soon swing into the fissure and then will have aobut 200 feet to go to enter the overthrust breccia from its hanging 7 Bankers are poor men, contrary to general suspicion.

This group consists of eighteen claims, or about 300 acres, which surrounds and extends east of the Old Glencoe property. The Glencoe fissure, in which large deposits of ore have been developed, is said to traverse the Bone property.

The property of the Alta Tunnel & Transportation company in Silver Fork of Big Cottonwood canyon was visited during the week by a party of stockholders from' San Francisco. They found the workings very wet by reason of the percolation into the stopes of water from the melting snow on the mountain tops, but they were pleased with the several faces of ore exposed and the improvements that have been made at the mine since regular shipments began. The water, while It does not stop the breaking of the ore, is troublesome because it washes away the finer material and causes a loss of values.

Owing to the property which aluminum possesses of producing a very high temperature when burned with substances that give off oxygen it has been used for making a detonator for firing explosives which do not readily respond to the action of the detonating compositions generaly used. The aluminum is used in the form of a powder mixed with the other substances filling the percussion caps or detonators. The sudden high temper ature induced by the pulverized aluminum results in a greater mechanical energy than can be produced with the compositions not containing aluminum.
