Marcus DAILY ON the Anaconda
acknowledgements.

M1ssouLA, July 2o.-[Spscial. -Cornish,
Winstanley and Tavers have secured a
boud on the U. s. Treasury mine. The pur-
chase price is $4,000 a part of which will
be paid next Monday and the balance IN
sixty days. They take possession OF the
mine Immediately. Two shifts will be put
to work, as it is the aim of the bonding par
ties to do as much development on the prop
erty as possible before the expiration of tho
bond. Supplies and tools wore sent from
here yesterday. The property is located
east of the Little Anaconda and supposed
to be on the same ledge and is about a mile
and q half from the Iron Mountain. The
present owners are the Wilson brothers. j.
G. Staley and NJ. +. Rutherford.
The mine is developed by four openings
consisting of two shafts, q tunnel and an
open cut, all of which are in ore. The
deepest shaft ia down 81 feet and gives av-
erage assays Of from 55 to so ounces of sill
YER to the ton and 45 per cent. lead. The
other shaft at a depth of q feet has a vein
of four and one half feet, with three feet of
ore averaging IS ounces in silver to the ton.
A streak of solid galena three feet wide is
looked for in the next 25 feet.
A correspondent of the Missoula Gazette
says that the Keystone mine in Spring
Rulch is working two shifts, and has lately
built y good trail from its dump to the Q.
r. l. N. shaft house. The 0. r. u N. COM
pany are driving their tunne straight ahead
as usual, and the sign of mo Admittance"
at the tunnel entrance, together with q fore
man who will give no information, isaves
to surmise what they have or what they
haven't got. The Silver Link company are
in 80 feet with their Wsbtoot Boy tun mel,
and lately there has boon considerable in
quiry for Silver Link stock from mining in
YestQrs.

They had ore all the way from the shaft

The Spokane Smelter.

Spokane will nave to look elsewhere than
the Union Pacific for the building of a spur
to the smelter, erected near that city. Presi-
dent Cakes, of the Northern Pacific. refused
to do it. because of a contract between tbs
Union Pacific and the smelter people, CIV
ing that road all the traffic. He said, how
ever, that his road would take the matter
under consideration, if the contract with
the Union Pacific was so fixed that the
Northern Pacific could get part of the bust
ness. The idea was that the Union Pacific
and Northern Pacific should build the spur
jointly. The Spokane people telegraphed
Manager Clark of the Union Pacific. ask
ing what he would do in the matter, and
this is his reply:
New York, July 16.-J. @. Fisher, secre-
tnry of committees: / have received your
telegram of the 18th. This Union Depot
company of Spokane, the owner of the
property over which it is proposed to e1-
tend the track to the smelter, defaulted on
its interest Oh the 1st inst. In view of the
complications that arise by reason of this
default, the Union Pacific does not see its
way clear to advance any money to enable
the depot ompany to construct the track
in question. S. II. Fl. CLALK.
The Spokane Chronicle has this to say of
the situation: This is virtually a refusal
on the part of the Union Pacific to build
the Smslter track. 1t is evident that af-
WA Wv w Saeb "
halt must be called, the old contracts with
the different parties cancelled and new con-
tracts entered into if anything is to be &C.
complished.
E. I. Steele, one of the gentlemen largely
identified with the smelter enterprise, said:
''There is but one way out of the difficulty,
and that is to kill the contracts previously
made with the Union Depot company, and
begin over again. But here lies the diff
Gully. No one knows anything about the
contracts. There are no duplicates known
to exist INT those held by the railroad COM
panies have never been seen since they
were drawn up and signed. it's perfectly
plain how the Union depot has defaulted.
The Union Pacific company did the grad
ing and the Seattle, Lake Shore g. East
ern did nothing. When the Northern Pa
ol6c bought the former road, tho condition
of affairs was this: The Union Pacific had
expended $4,000 for putting the grade
through, and held a contract granting them
the monopoly of the smelter traffic. No
adjudication of the matter was effected be-
tween the two roads, united as they were in
the Unicn Depot company, and in conse-
auence at a very critical period the Union
Depot company defaulted. A heavy blow
has been struck at the smelter enterprise by
this act of the railroads, and the smeIter
committee must work harder now than
ever"

Deer Lodge Mines.

Good reports continue to come from the
Cottonwood, and the New North West is
assured that its statement of last week con-
corning the property's showing is as nearly
correct as any that could be made in view
of the yet meagre Developments. The leas-
ers are still prospecting vigorously. and the
ore chute tapped near the surface in the
new cut holds Its own. 1T is stated that the
leasers have decided to bail out the old
workings and attack the chute from the
200.
Salton Cameron was in town Tuesday.
he confirms the report of a resumption of
operations ut the Southern Cross, and
thinks that the mine will henceforth be a
steady producer. Some time since he pur-
chased the old dump from the company
and this he will treat in his stamp mill,
much of the ore being free milling and ca
pable of profitable reduction at the mine.
1t IL the company's purpose, however, to
send its ore to the smelters, as that pro-
duced from the present workings is quite
base.
Secretary Geo. S. Miller, accompanied by
ELI d. Holland, visited the Lion Wednesday.
They found the work progressing satisfac-
torily and the showing in the mine quite
improved. The breast of the drift presents
a solid face of quartz and, although I'M
appearance of life. They brought
samples back for assay. but at this
writing no returns can be given.
There yet remains about fifty feet to run of
the distance contemplated at the outset of
the present developments, and it is not I'M
reasonable to hope for a material change for
the better before the objective point is
reached.
There is nothing new from the CHAMPION.
The delivery of ore continues and the mill
ia running without Interruption. At a re-
cent meeting of trustees another assessment
of two cents per shnre was levied.

The following exciting story,
which We have condensed, comes
from the Lone Star State, and
shows what the Texas pony of GER
tain kind is: A young lady living
on ranch in the Big Horn basin
has just had a thrilling experience
with an unbroken bronco. A cow
boy was attempting to conquer the
animal, particularly stubborn
beast, when in fun Miss Cora Ar
ledge, the daughter of well-known
ranchman, jumped in the saddle,
throwing her knee over the horn.
In a minute the horse started of at
break neck speed, bucking like all
fury. For two hours it kept its
awful pace, holly pursued by three
cowboys, one of whom finally sue
ceeded in lassoing the flying steed
and bringing 1t to a stop. Miss
Arledge, however, had such strain
upon her leg that she was unable to
dismount, and before she could be
assisted the bronco started off again.
This time the horse ran until il
dropped dead. The young lady was
picked up unconscious, and so great
had been the exertion of the limb
over the saddle horn that it has been
limp and powerless ever since. She
has been sent to Omaha for treat
ment.

a process for hardening plaster,
so that it may be used for flooring,
as wood and tiles are at present, is
being extensively employed in
France. About six parts of good
quality plaster are intimately mix
ed with one part OF freshly slaked
white lime finely sifted. The mix
ture is then laid down as quickly
as possible, care being taken that
the trowel is not used on it tor too
long a time. The floor should then
be allowed to become very dry, and
afterward be thoroughly saturated
with sulphate of iron or zinc, the
iron giving the strongest surface.
With sulphate of zinc the floor re-
mains white, but when iron is used
it becomes the color Of rust. If
linseed oil, boiled with litharge, be
applied to the surface it becomes a
mahogany tint.
