PLACER CREEK MINES.
A Promising District in the Cpur
d'Alenes Now Attracting East
erni Capitalists.
The Richness of the Mines in the
Okanogan Country Being
Proved Daily.
Operations in tho Promising Neihart
Country-Wiilard Benefits Flint
Creek Mine

The Cour d'Alene Miner lately ohron-
icled the bonding Of the Castle Rock, a
Placer creek property, to j. L. Montgom-
cry, Of New York. Following closely upon
this is the bonding of the Spokane, a claim
adjoining on the east, of which w. T.. Mel.
son il one OF the principal owners, by the
same party. The Spokane Was located
last fall. 1t is nearly three miles from
Wallace, Oh the east fork of Placer orssk.
Although no work to speak OF has been
done, the groupings give eyidenc of n good
body OF mineral. Tho result of work on
the Castle Rock. gives confidence in the
Spokane. 1t is generally understood that
tho figure il $4,000. with a fair payment
down. The time is one year. 1t is the in
tention of Mr. Montgomery and those asso-
ciated with him to work the property all
winter. Work is being pushed rapidly on
the Castle Rock. About a dozen men are
employed.
1t looks very much like Placer creek is to
receive the attention ii deserves. There is
at present more activity in that %neighbor-
hood than ever before, and ii seems that
the company operating there is taking hold
in earnest to open up mines. Many of the
best mining men in the country have ex-
pressed tho opinion that depth alone was
required to find pay mineral in abundant
quantities in those Lodges. Tho surface
showing is good. Considerable ll-adyised
work has given tho district a back sct.
Other districts have pushed ahead, and
Placer canyon has simply waited its turn.
