DISMANTLING OF BOSTON HOIST IS ABOUT COMPLETE

LARGE FORCE OF MEN PREPARING MACHINERY FOR SHIPMENT.

The work of dismantling the old steam hoist at the Boston-Tonopah property, about a mile north of town, is nearly completed and in a few days the machinery will be loaded aboard the cars for shipment to Buckhorn, where it will be installed on the property recently purchased by George Wingfield and associates.

For the last week, or since the machinery was purchased by Fred J. Siebert, Wingfield's engineer, James F. McCambridge has had a force of men at work preparing the hoisting apparatus for shipment. The huge smokestack has been lowered and at the completion of yesterday's labors, the hoist and the rest of the heavy parts had been jacked up and were ready to be hauled to the depot.

It is thought that the hoist will be shipped the latter part of this week.
