The Neihart Cumberland.

Neihart has its Cumberland as well as
Castle. That is, 1t has q mine of that
name and Its owners have just incorpor-
ated the Neihart Cumberland Mining
company to develop and operate the
mine. The incorporators are John Lend,
Dune. Mcdonald, Dune. MCGOWAN and
E. R. Clingan and they are also the trus-
tees. Mr.. Mcdonald has been elected
president of the company. Mr.. McCowan
vice-president and Mr.. ClIngan:: secre-
tary and treasurer. The capital stock is
100000 in shares of $1.OO each.
The Cumberland is one of the first To-
cations in Neihart and was first known as
the Deadwood. 1t is developed by a
tunnel 800 #. and a shaft so feet in depth.
In the tunnel the ore body is from
1S inches to four feet in width and the
ore of good grade. 1t runs from 40 to
go ounces in silver and contains besides .
good percentage of lead.
The Cumberland is certainly in good
company. 1t lies west OF the Moulton,
east of the Queen of the Hills and south
Of the Gait, being wedged IN among
these we'll known properties. There are
three separate veins on the ground and
every indication points to this being a
great property. The company intends TO
begin further development Of this mine
at once and expect to show up another
Moulton or something of that kind.

Great Falls are people in luck 60 far as
the awarding of the contracts on the
western extension Of the GreN Northern
is concerned. Mr.. John J. Kennedy has
secured the meat contract and as he VIII
have to furnish all the beef and mutton
that between two and three thousand
men can get away with. it is evident he
has a pretty big contract on his hands
But Mr.. Kennedy is a rustler of the high
est type and IT he can't do the work n 3
body can. He is now in the field making
preparations for the work.
The rumor Is out, and it is doubtless
we'll founded, that DR.. Jno. Fl. Fairfield
has the medical contract, which lie a very
important and valuable one. He was
hunting up suitable vehicles and teams
yesterday and in two or three days Will
be on the ground organizing his staff and
attending to the medical wants Of the
workmen. DR.. Fairfield has had a years
experience in this business and will
handle this large work to perfection.

For eight years past Mr.. Barrett has

stand as evidence of his industry. Most
of this was dead work but he was conf
dent he had a mine and kept right along
driving the tunnel. A few days ago he
was rewarded by striking IN the tunnel a
large body of ore which fairly g~listens
with native silver. The lead at this point
is eight feet in width and there is about
three feet of the rich ore. 1t has been
explored for some distance and the indi-
cations are it is one of the most import

The following interesting article is

Harding, is secretary of the Cotswold
Sheep Association of the United States
and Canada, and of the Short-Horn Cat
tie Association. He is and is considered
one Of the highest authorities in the coun-
try upon fine stock. While here Mr..
Harding made some investments in
acreage near Great Falls, thereby pinning
his faith in our town in something be-
sides words:
"Haylng been shipper for many years
of thoroughbred stock into Montana and
the adjacent country, I determined, a few
weeks ago, to take a hasty jaunt, in the
company of a friend, through that region.

we arrived at st. Paul early in the morn

scribing his journey through Dakota and

the following comments regarding this
city:
