Like most western towns it has gone
through the ordeal Of fire during the
past year, but it's business men, with the
indomitable pluck characteristic Of the
country, have rebuilt and will retrieve
their losses by remaining with the town,
knowing that the development Of the
rich mineral districts tributary will as

miles OF the terminus OF the Park branch
are the towns Of Cinnabar and Horr, the
former enjoying the traffic incident to u
terminal point as well as surrounding
coal measures in course Of successful
development, while the latter sprang in
to existence as the trading point for op
eratives in the employ Of tho Park Coal
and Coke company and will continue to
grow and prosper with tho development
and increased output Of the company's
plant. Fridlcy is the chief trading point
and postoslice for Paradise valley. and is
located on the Park branch about thir-
ty five miles south Of Livingston. Eight
miles west Of Livingston. situated on Il
branch Or spur from tie main line of the
Northern Pacific. is the thriving village
of Cokedale. whose business has rapidly
increased the past season with the i'm

TH= .SSTLE Mt .Es:

The following from the pen of Prof. G.
G. Swallow, state mine inspector, with
reference to the Castle district, recently
published in the Mining Review, will be
Of more than ordinary interest, as com
ing from one whose thorough knowledge
OF the subject and disinterested motives
enable him to give an impartial and
scientific description OF the camp:
The first discovery of mines in Castle
mountains was made in 1885. They at
once attracted the attention of the min
ing world and have ever since held a
prominent position In public estimation.
a great many discoveries have been
made and I'm unusual amount of energy
has been displayed in developing quite
number of these prospects into mines.
This was to be expected where rich ores
in such abundance moved the muscles
welding the pick aud the shovel.
Castle is a mining camp built in a
beautiful sheltered valley at the south
ern base of Castle mountain. This
mountain received its name from the
castlea,ed rocks which form the very at,
tractive feature of it's crest and peaks.
The principal mines are on series of
rounded mountain spurs from one to six
miles from the town. The mountains
are limestone, porphyries, GRANTEES and
various eruptive rocks.
The ores occur in contact veins, crew
ice veins, blanket veins and veins of seq.
regation. Many Of the best mines are
opened along the line of contact between
the limestone and porphyry.
The ores are oxides and sulphurets ol
iron, carrying gold, silver and lead, car.
Donate and sulphuret Of lead, rich in
silver, carbonates and oxides and sul
phurets OF copper, containing gold an6
silver, oxide OF manganese, oontainins

up to ten or twelve thousand dollars per

up to ten or twelve thousand dollars pei
ton.
A very large number Of the mines Of
Castle have cap Of iron ores, known to
old English miners as gossan, and though
these caps are not rich in gold and silver
and copper, they have been in all ages
and in all great mining countries es-
teemed good indication Of rich mines.
This opinion was SO strong and prevalent
among the miners Of Europe at very
early day in the history of mining, that
1t found expression in several allanguages:
as shown by the 'gossan hood" OF Corn
wall. ''chapeau de fer" Of France, and
the "eiserne hut" Of Germany. It even
became proverb in the very early ages
Of mining, as is shown by the following,
we'll known to German miners:
les ist ME nicht gang so gut
Der tra:t nicht einen eisrrne hut
No mine IL deemed 40 good
AZ one that Has an iron hood.
Though the iron and manganese ores
which form these caps are not, as rule,
very rich in the precious metals, they
carry enough to make them very valua-
bic fiuxes to use with more refractory
and richer ores.
There is furnace at Castle, which
has slnelted the ores from several of the
Castle mines with what would seem to
be good results. During last fall it
run 1900 tons from the Cumberland,
which yielded bullion worth some $780,
600, and only profit of S27 per ton on
the ore delivered at the furnace. The
Connielsvllle coke used cost &25 per
ton. and the charcoal Is cents per
b,shel. The bullion contains so large
a per cent. OF lead that the freight and
refining make large reduction on
what would otherwise be net profits
The refining cost SlG per ton, and the
freight to Aurora. Illinois, cost 1922 per
ton. and the freight on coke by rail to
and by wagon to Castle
costs about the same. Thus the freight

Allan n. SOY.

Allan r. y,whose card adorns another
page in this issue, is one of Livingstons
earliest pioneers, and his prominence and
success as financial man entities him
to more than passing notice. While he
is admitted to be one of the leading at
torneys of Park county, his we'll known
abilities as real estate and insurance
man have placed him far in the lead of
all competitors.
Mr.. Joy has been for many years sole
resident agent for the Livingston town.
site, also for all railroad lands in Park
county. He is also the sole agent for the
Riverside addition adjoining the town
site on the banks of the Yellowstone,
and its beautiful trees, fine soil and pure
spring water offers one of the most at
tractive building spots in Livingston. In
the sale Of railroad company's lands Mr..
Joy has very fine farming lands at prices
ranging from three to eight dollars per
acrs, capable Of being thoroughly
watered. These lands are sold on very
easy terms Of payment and are being
rapidly taken up.
Livingston is ia the center Of the most
valuable coal and quartz mining camps
in Montana. Mr.. Joy has secured the
control, management and sale Of some
Of the most desirable mines in Park
county which he il constantly negotiat-
ing with eastern capitalists.
Mr.. Joy also represents large line of
the leaaing fire insurance companies do
ing business in the United States, repre-
senting combined capital of over $780,
100000. .-... .....
While his generous and agreeable
manner Of doing business has contribu-
ted largely to his prosperity and won for
him host Of friends, yet the secret of
his success is found in his close applica-
tion and prompt attention to all business
entrusted to him. Although his rapidly
increasing business has made it neces-
sary from time to time to increase his
office facilities for doing business, all
business is still transacted under his
personal direction. Although Mr.. Joy
attends personally to all the details of
his business he has always found time to
assist in the social interests of the city
and has always been prominent figure
in all public matters and he today enjoys
the distinction of being one of the
as we'll as one of the most re-
liable business men in the county.

Although Park county has been in en-

that time nearly doubled in the value of
its assessable property. During the past
year, Notwithstanding the fact that the
valuation on horses was reduced from
$40 to SIS per head, the valuation of
property as returned by the county as

quarters of million. AS a matter for

Interesting Notes Relating to tho Great

Nickel and Copper Camp Of
Park County.
Nye City, situated on the west fork of
Saltwater river. forty miles in south
westerly direction from Saltwater sta
tion on the Northern Pacific railroad, is
reached by stage running thrice weekly.
The road to the camp is good and the
grade easy of ascent, the rise being al
most imperceptible.
The town proper lies Nesting in a we'll
shaded basin at the base of the well
known granite range, the mountains ris-
ing abruptly as it were from the out
skirts Of the town and towering into the
clouds. giving to the traveller for the first
time he visits this mining campa grand
panoramic view that time can never eff
face from his memory.
The principal mines OF Nye City are
owned by two or three distinct eastern
corporations. the Minneapolis Mining
and Smelling company. the Saltwater
Mining company, and the name of the
third, have been informed, is the Mic
ollet & Hennepin Mining company.
These three companies own and control
the majority of the mines in the camp.
