Ishpeming ~ The South Shore has a construction gang at work
putting in a side track to the Iron Valley mine. This property
is the discovery of Messers. Finn, Ely and others and the dev-
elopments have been so satisfactory that the place is certain-
ly entitled to the appelation of a mine. The side track starts
in just east of the Seventh st., crossing and goes right up
the hill. The grade will'te quite a heavy one, but will not be
so steep as the one at the East New York just to the south.
