IDAHO CITY MINES.

Splendid Prospecta for the Coming Year.
The Developments.
The Sub Rosa vein, on which Ii the
Washington mine 10 one OF the most ex.
tensive In Boise county, Idaho, being easi.
ly traced for over three miles. Tho first
location made on 1t was the Sub Rosa, by
w. w.. Hooton, in 1873. At the same
time he located the Golden Wreath and
King OF the Hill, on parallel veins. These
mines are not over 100 feet apart. In the
fall OF 1873 Mr.. Hooton packed between
thirty.hve and forty tons Of ore four miles
on animals for reduction, and 1t yielded
over $500. The following year read
was constructed and 1000 tons OF ore
banled to the mill and crushed, and In
1910 a ten-stamp steam mill was erected
ut the mine. IL ran for two years and
yielded little over 100000. The vein
near the surface becoming worked out. q
tunnel was started to develop the mine at
greater depth, and when in 600 feet a
ledge was crossed: IL assayed over 500
per ton in silver, but as the mill was only
continued. As far rs developed the vein
dipped toward the south, but later and
more extended Developments in the WASH
inRton, the first east extention, shows that
the dip Is to the north, IL not perpendicu-
lar. This goes to show that the tunnel
did not reach the Sub Rosa, but tapped .
blind ledge. If this proves to be the case
by the extension Of the tunnel, this mine
will help to boom Idaho City next year.
West of the Sub Rosa are two or three
locations that prospect splendidly on the
surface. IL some company with means to
90 ahead would run tunnel from Elk
Creek, following the vein, large amount
Of valuable mining ground would be
opened. A company il now negotiating
for the mines.
The Blue Dick and Silver King, north Of
the Washington, on Sub Rosa mountain.
show ore on the surface that is nearly half
silver. T. ey will be developed next spring
with 9, view to shipping The ore to Omaha
for reduction.
A fine body Of very rich ore has been de-
veloped In the 500-foot level Of the Ban
ner mine. BY the time the mill can be
started in the spring large amount of ore
will be out for reduction.
Considerable rain has fell last fall,
which wall prove OF much value to placer
mines next spring. This class Of mining,
is yet of much value TO the country.
Wiley Fox of the Washington mine
says the ore now being extracted will yield
$40 or $50 per ton. The Forest King mill
soon commence crushing it. The ore
crushed from the Pride of Idaho some time
ago yielded 800 per ton in free gold. IL
Is being developed for more extensive
workings next season.

Opinions Of Resident as to the Future OF

EDITOR REVIEWS: IL Is the logic of
commerce that in Eastern Washington
some great city should have sprung up
which is now manifesting itself in Spokane
Falls. 1t mas been the tune OF some from
the earliest period Of Spokane's existence
that her boom would soon burst. IL is the
inexorable law of CONN that this boom,

and 1t will go on. II is Just as certain
that Spokane Falls will become city
of at least SO, 900 people inside Of the next
world to-day the proud Possess0r of Is, 900.
1t is not drawing on the imagination too
much to say that it Is high probability
that our population may be increased this
year at least 1000, No doubt the number
OF people that will come TO our city
next spring and summer will be truly sur
prising 10 us all. II would be hard mat.
ter to even predict the magnitude that is
possible for this city to reach.

The water front is overrnn at present

Hardly any deep water vessels are arriv-

rock weighing twenty-five pounds was
hurled from the shoulder. 'Barnum

One 10y one toe contestants dropped off,
leaving only these two 'longshoremen in
the fight. Billy ran his record up to thir-
ty.three feet, but Jack beat it by a foot.

intensely excited.

his dog and gun.
At IL they went again. Muscular arms
hurled the stone further ana further un.
til Billy was three inches ahead. Jack had
the last throw, however, and with vic.
torious shout he put the stone thirty.nine
feet five inches and won Billy's wife.
"Say, boys" said Jack, "thines ia

that Jack was about to assume marital

last, "if You will treat the crowd we will

 LONDON, Jan. 29.-A rumor had been free ly circulated that Mir. O'Brien would balk his pursuers and appear at the meeting. This ,eport brought out large audience. John Dillon was also expected, but did not appear. The chairman was addressing the meeting when a ccmmotion occurred and MT. O'Brien appeared at the entrance to the platform and stepped to the front. Then there was Q scene of wild enthusiasm. The people arose en
 masse and eherred and shouted until they
 were compelled through sheer exhaus-
 tion to desist. Such a scene was
 never witnessed in Manchester. Mr.
 OBrien's face was pale, but he retained his
 composure, and when he began to speak his
 voice was firm. He gave in detail the story
 of his conviction, the audience following him with breathless attention. He said he had roved through four counties of Ireland. When he had concluded his remarks his him by the hand. So eager was the crowd that MT. O'Brien was rudely hustled about and almost tainted. At this time a large force of police arrived on the scene. Mir O'Brien was arrested in the anterOOm while the audience was leaving the hall and conveyed to the central station. A torch light parade was afterwards held in honor of Mr. O'Brien.

Lake, who boarded at No. 9 Allegheny street, Koxbury, had his fu'rni- ture and clothing insured short time ago in the Glens Falls Ing urance company for $500.

DEFAULTER MOORE vACATES. Rumor Says That He Has Sought
 Safety fn Cnnada-EAis Shortage May
 Reach $l,OoO,0e0.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 29.-It is believed that Joseph A. Moore, the Connecticut Mutual Life dsfaulter, is concealing himself, and there are rumors of flight to Canada. His town residence is in charge of colored ser- wants, who assert that he has not been there for the past twenty four hours, ,and he cannot be found at Tanglewood or Glen Ethol. the home of his wife's people. Publication is made that the shortage will reach $1 900. 900, although this is strenuously denied by MT. Abbott, representing the company. The lat ter says he has not seen Moore for three days. It was developed yesterday that Newton I. Todd, former clerk for Moore, gave to the company eight months ago 6 detailed state no response gave brief acknowledgment of the receipt Of his letter.
 Later information positively confirms the rumor that Moore had gone to Canada. His attorney, Barrett, admitted to night that Moore had gone to Canada, His friends here profess not to know what point in Canada he made for. No warrant for his arrest has been sworn out nor any steps taken that the public is aware of looking to such move. Last Saturday lady relative of Moore's went to several of the largest stores, and calling for his account paid the bill. Yester- day a woman unknown at the several stores settled the remaining bills
