Hadly few the sleigh over tho track
hss prairies. 1t needed not the laah
that the frantic driver was using with
all his energy to uree tho frightened
horses to the top Of their speed. Tho
blood curdling bowls Of the wolves that
grew momentarily nearer and nearer
lent wings to tho painting animals, and
they tore along over snowy wastes,
every muscle strained to its utmost,
every nerve quivering, their nostrils d.
lated, their eyes starting from their
sockets, and long trails of filmy vapor
nom their steaming bodies following in
their wake.
Comrades" said one of the IN in
the sleigh, rising up, pale, but wiz iron
resolution written in every line Of his
face, 1.-The wolves are gaining upon us.
In i've minutes more, unless they are
checked, We are all lost. II we had ton
minutes we could reach that farm house
yonder, but we cannot do it. There is
only one hope. One Of US must sacrifice
himself for the others. FAREWELL"
Before they could stop him he had
thrown himself ont of the sleigh and dis

On few the horses. The sleigh, re-
heved Of tho weight Of the brave man
who had voluntarily offered himself =
sacrifice to tho bloodthirsty animals to
save the lives Of his friends, went per-
cephbly faster. A few minutes later

upon him with every demonstration Of

fiercest Of the whole pack, evidently the
leader, offered him his paw as II to shake

Boulder district. A four-ifths interest in
taese mines has recently been sold to Will
lard Bennett, of Deer Lodge, for so. 600.
This is a gold property and they
HAYS ore that will so urin the thousands in
gold. Before buying. Mr.. Bennett visited
this property in person and made = thor
ough test of the property. Before closing
thu sale he picked two tons of ore promis-
c~nousiy, both from the dumpa and the
wol kings of the mine, and shipped II to
Helena, which averaged sos in gold to tho
ton.
A half mile northeast of the Nonpareil
lies the Perrie mine, where there are five
mon at work for a party who has it under
lease. II is developed by a tunnel 1h5 feet
long. being run to tap the ledge at Il depth
of POO feet. When in some seventy feet
they struck another vein OF ore different in
character from any heretofore found in this
section of the country. The ore body is
tweuty-eight feet in thickness, with two
we'll defined walls. The ore will average
over thirty ounces per ton in silver. though
Mr.. Emery, the lessee. is not saving that
grade. He is working in the old Perris
shaft. above the tunnel. where he has two
feet of l35-ounce ore at present in sight.
From those in a position to know the Perrie
ia considered a true assure vein. This
property is owned by DIR. A. II. Mitchell,

On The Kootenay.

Good progress IS being made on the Dan
dy. says the Nelson Miner. The lower
tunnel run on the ledge is being advanced
nine feet a week, and the cross cut tunnel
to the top of the ledge about IA feet. The
latter will be about 200 feet long, and will
tap the ledge about So feet below the bot
tom of the shaft. This will not only afford
drainage, but allow of drifts being run both
ways on the vein. The lower tunnel, when
it reaches a point below the shaft, will be
10 feet below the cross-cut tunnel. A, M.
ESler, VINO Is now on the ground, is not
only we'll pleased with the way the work is
progressing, but is sure that his COMPANY
has a mine. Power drills will be put in as
soon ss it Is demonstrated that the electric
drllls,now being tried in the Coaur d'Alenes,
are a success, preference being given the
electric over compressed air. Giveout
creek will furnish the power. Within a
year the Eandy will be among the we'll
known mines OH the Pacific coast.
