KOOTENAI'S CHARMS,
Its Great Mineral Wealth and Beauti-
full Natural Scenery.

W, G. Cowgirl returned yesterday from

Spokane which is perhaps the finest ga

The Spokane is showing up in manner
which is further evidence of the now OFT.

Mr.. Cowgirl is of the opinion that in
the not far distant future the shores OF
the Nootenai lake and river will become
famous as summer resort, and that
within ten years rich men will
build summer cottages on
the inviting spots overlooking tho
crystal waters at the foot of the magnifi.

becoming noted. The beauties of this

broke from the county Jail last night,
going through slate roof Deputy
Sheriff Goldsoll went to the western part
of the city, where one of the men lived
and with a policeman laid in wait for
the fellows. About midnight a carriage
containing two men passed along the
street. The officers called upon
the occupants of the vehicle TO
stop. Several shots were eS-
changed and Goldsoll was fatally
wounded. The carriage was driven
rapidly away. An hour later the rig
was found a mile from the place OF the
shooting. In the buggy was. found the
body of a dead man. 1t was first thou ght
that the dead man was Smith, but those
who knew him failed TO identify the
corpse and the police are still in the
dark. They think, however, thes dead
man was up to some mischief, for in the
buggy was found two revolvers a club,
screw driver and piece of rope. The
horse, which had been stolen in the east

Season in the Far-Famed
kootenai Country.
The Poorman Declares a Dividend
discoveries in Skagit and
Olanogan Counties.

From gentleman who has just re-
turned from Kootenai lake the REVIEW
gets the following items:
HOT SPRINGS CAMP.
Tie two mines which now attract the
most attention are the Dellie, recently
purchased by Spokane parties, and the
Skyline, owned by Messrs. Wheeler IL
Co. The former Is rich carbonate vein,
running from 80 to 800 ounces of silver
to the ton. The gentlemen who have
purchased II are making preparations to
ship ore to Helena. This ore is easily
moved and will pay good profit over
the high rate of transportation.
The Skyline Is free-milling ore, and
apparently continuous vein. 1t varies
from fourteen inches to four feet In
thickness and assays from 100 to 800
ounces silver per ton.
The Little Donald is shipping about
500 sacks Of ore per week, which will av-
erage over 100 ounces silver and about so
per cent lead. The Spokane is also be-
ginning to make shipments. This mile
shows pure lead, but not so high a grade
of silver.
TOAD MOUNTAIN.
The Golden King company have their
Huntington mill fairly at work with
two pans, and are crushing about thirty
tOnS VI ore per uty SOIUe exceedingly
rich ores are being exposed, going from
$40 to 5000 in gold, They intend to put
up several concent traitors, of q pattern
peculiar to Colorado. Mr.. Stanley thinks
II probable that another year will wit
ness the erection of hundred stamp
mill upon Cottonwood Smiths creek, for
his ore.
Davenport & Co. are expecting the
machinery for their ten.stamp mill in
very soon. Meanwhile their mine, the
Poorman, is looking remarkably well.
But the White & Co. mine higher up tha
mountain on Eagle creek shows much
richer ore, with prospect of a large
vein.
Some assays from the Daisy mine, adj
joining the Silver King at Toad noun
tain have given very rich returns rs
high as 800 ounces to Che ton.
The steamer Idaho was unable on her
last trip to take all the ore that was Of
fered. Both She and the Galena were
compelled to refuse shipments.
Buchanan IL Co.'S sawmill have begun
to saw timber, and several new buildings
are, going up both in Ainsworth and
Nelson.
