CALUMET.
A large mining village, located at the site of the famous Calumet & Hecla mine, in Calumet township, Houghton county. It is reached from Hancock by the Mineral Range railroad, being 13 miles distant. Another railroad, 51% miles long, belonging to the mining company, connects it with Torch Lake. The village has a population of about 4,000, nearly the whole of whom are directly or indirectly connected with the mine. The streets are straight and wide, and the buildings, mostly of wood, are neat and attractive. For so large a place there are but few stores, shops or factories. There are five churches, Catholic, Congregational, Finnish, Lutheran and Methodist, and a large and handsome union school of brick and stone, capable of accommodating some 1,200 children, has been erected by the muni- ficence of the mining company.
The mine, the richest in the world, is Worked in a vein of conglomerate, dipping to the west at an angle of perhaps 38°. The vein is eight or ten feet in thickness, and is uniformly productive. Eight shafts pene- trate the vein to a depth of some 1,500 feet ; the different shafts being connected by gal- leries or levels. Work is prosecuted night and day, and about I,Soo hands are em- ployed. The machinery used for elevating the oar to the surface and crushing it, and Or pumping and condensing air for the drills, is all on an immense scale and of the tuest perfect description. The oar is carried ' rail to Torch Lake, where are located the Extensive stamps of the company. The pro-
duct of the mine for the past year amounted to the enormous aggregate of 13,200 tons, approximating in value $5.000,000, and there is no falling off in the product possible for years to come. The capital of the company is nominally $2,000,000 ; but the $25 shares sell readily in the market at from $120 to $160 each. The general superintendent of the mine is Mr. J. N. Wright, a gentleman of great executive ability.
The Mineral Range Telegraph- Company affords telegraphic facilities. Express, Amer- ican. A. T. Streeter, postmaster.
