The main purpose of the tunnel Is tn dry the mines of the company and cut off the enormous expense of pumpiiiK and In taking the course the tunnel Is traveling It will prove the mountain lying between Beaver Meadow and the valley.

In time these veins may be followed up and primps lead to veins that may he worth working. 'When the tunnel Is completed all the mines in the Beaver Meadow district will be drain ed into tlio valley through it. This will cut off a heavy Item of expense in pumping water and will reduce the danger of tho mines being flooded. Hazleton Sentinel. The Arrangements Committee.
