with sinking main shaft. The constant working of three
shifts has decreased the influx of water, which will enable
shaft to be sunk below the 150ft. level. The country

machinery is working very well, and a fair supply of water
is still available in the company's dam. Mr John Foster,
of Emmaville an experienced mine manager, has been
engaged as mine manager, and will take charge on 1st
June.
