been connected with the Cronin murder, is
news to the prison officials. who state they

was connected with the crime, but put no

would have no trouble clearing himself.
He formerly lived in Chicago, where he has
a brother and three sisters. In the past
five years he has been in Oklahoma, Puget

until two months & when bench warrants
for him came again from Portland on an

that time he said to n fellow convict that
he supposed his trustyship was taken away

FLINT CREEK DIsTRICT.

More Legitimate Work Now Going On
Than Ever Before.
While the silver mining industry seems
to have been brought to almost a stsndstill
in some sections of the country on account
Of the low price paid for that metal, in
the Flint Creek district, however, matters
are entirely different. and there is probably
more legitimate work under way now than
there ever has been before, says the Granite
Mountain Star:
just below Granite the John McKechney
company are making great progress on the
Puritan mine and have put the old Algon-
GUM mill in operation on it's ores and bull
lion ID already being produced. Tha de-
velopments of the mine since the present
company took charge of it have been most
gratifying. AT a depth of thirty-fve feet
in the shaft the vein Of ore that the former
operators had worked upon was struck,
though it was found to be small and broken.
yet TO the practical miner it gave evidence
of permanence at a greater depth.
Ih5 WatoF had Doo1 puMp5d from tic
old shaft and a careful inspection was
made, after which the shaft was continued
100 feet, where a station was MADE and
levels east and west were commenced on
the vein. The Developments at this depth
were extremely fiattering, and as tie levels
were continued on the vein it proved itself
to be larger, also richer and of a more per
mAnent nature than the management had
predicted it might.
The west level was driven in ninety-fve
feet, where an upraise was made. and the
Stopping out of ore was begun. This Slope is
now within thirty feet of the surface, n
the miners are st work taking out rock
from a large vein that gives an average as.
say of 225 ounces. The level west is already
uriven III l25 feet, and the we'll detiaed vein
Is exposed to its face. Going back in the
east level the same circumstance exists for
1876 feet to its face. An upraise is also made
100 feet distant in this level, where ore is
also being stopped out from the same BODY
that is shown in the west and it ia much
larger, but assays fifty ounces less.
The conditions of the mine at his point
being so favorable, the shafs was continued
100 feet more. and the showing of the vein
at that depth, 2O0feet, ia indeed remarkable,
The ore is solid galena and the width of the
vein is uncertain. At least two feet is
shown up, and there ID no knowing how far
1t may yet be on the footwall. AT the pres
ent time a station 10 being cut at the 200,
and until 1t is made there IS no opportunity
for other work to proceed. There Is also
lots of water at this point, but it is easily
handled with the pump in use. soon as
the station ID completed levels east and
west will be commenced, and those who
know the conditions are awaiting the de-
velopments with pleasant anxiety.
ID can be said with IMMUNITY that the
Puritan ls by far the best prospect for be-
coming a big mine of any that has been
opened up IN the district since the BIZ
Metallic.

Emma Miller mine. Mount Pleasant. o
siderable ore from this claim, in the early

Frost and Clemson for $4,000 by the

reported to have already paid for the mine.
The Empire mine, it is said, is not looking
at all we'll, and is likely TO be abandoned
soon, when the mill will have to be kept
going on Bell Boy ore. There are several
pretty good prospects in Tousley. A good
deal of development has been accom-

able activity there before long.
