ketclium.

The people o: Ketchum complained
the past year of dull times, and in
many respects there was reason for
this complaint, but there was no pros.
perity among the people that was
shown to the common observer. The
mines of the district did better than
the year previous.
The First Bank OF Ketchum, agents
for different smelters, shipped 100
tons of ore containing 10000 ounces
silver, 800 ounces gold and 1,396,7s4
pounds Of lead. This includes only
ores produced in the k.tchum district.
In addition there was forwarded
through ketchum from the Custer
country. probably an equal quantity
and value Of ore and base bullion.
The Ophir Mining & Milling Co..
incorporated the pas. year, is engaged
in opening good mines on Boulder
creek and has excellent prospects for
success.
The Boulder NJ. & Nj. Co. is another
new company, operating in the same
district.
The Trapper Company, composed
Of Salt Lake men, bought the Trspper
mine one year ago and have been
working it with good results, making
some shipments of high>grade silver
and g old ore.
Ten men are working in the old
Elkhorn mine, near Ketchum, search
ing for ore through deep tunnel.
All the other mines in the district are
comparatively idle, but a number have
large bodies of low grade ore exposed,
which the owners do not care to ship
at the present price of silver. Good
silver legislation would help the dis
trict more than anything else.
The North Star, up the East Fork,
shipped much ore during the year,
the shipments going from the siding
at the mouth Of the East Fork.

Lava District,

Lava District, the name of the
country about Era is known by, made
but little progress the past season,
and yet it looks much brighter for the
future than it has since the Bannack
Company shut down nine and mill
some years ago. That property is
now owned by the Last Chance Min
ing Company, composed mostly of
citizens of Salt Lake City. They own
the twenty stamp mill and all the
group of mines formerly belonging to
the Bannack Company, and they have
OH hand enough wood to run year if
not longer, and they have also other
supplies. The past year they have
had men prospecting and have struck
such good bodies of ore that during
this winter these are being blocked
out ready to begin Stopping in the
spring. Then the mill will be started.
and it is believed that there is enough
ore to keep i. steadily running. This
one enterprise promises to make Era
a lively town again. 1t is understood
that the ore opened up is Of high
grade of milling ore.
The Hub mine, which was once sold
and has since been the subject OF lit,
cation, was lately sold under execu
ton and was bought in by w. S
Greenhow and John B. Winters. The
limit for redemption expires on May
9TH. The mine has a stock of sup
plies to work for one year and is re-
ported to have lots of good ore in
sight. 1t is guarded by an employee,
who also keeps the water out Next
summer it will doubtless DO operated
if it is not redeemed from the late
sale. Mr. Martin has developed lately
ledge OF high grade silver ore on the
west end of the Hub, and of the same
kind Of ore carried in the first dis.
cosery.
The Palace, on tho west, owned by
Hood, Ballsntine, Green and Hill, has
also fine showing OF ore.
There are a number of other pros.
poets in the Era camp which are be.
ing worked this winter, so that the
camp promises better than it has for
several years.
Hull & Green have q small force Of
men working on the Horn Silver
mine, and are taking out some rich
ore.
Mr.. Mulhall has lately made a ship
ment Of good ore from the Henrietta
mine in Dry Fork. Il. J. Smiley has
a bonanza in bis property a. the head
OF Antelope creek, where he gets ore

supply of ore in sight, enough to keep
the COMMENTATORS running steadily.
The Red Cloud started its jigs
lately with a large stock of ore on
hand, and it has heen quite shipper
during the past year.
The Bu.tercup has reached a depth
of 440 feet, with eighteen inches Of
first class ore, besides large bodies Of
concentrating ore.
Around Bullion but little is being
done except on the Jay Gould, which
had large amount Of dead work
done and it is now rcwarding Ralph
Nichols for what he has done and is
doing. Ii will be remembered that
the Jay Gould was once large pre-
Queer; it has been idle for number
of years, having been classed as ''dug
out" But under tie charge of Mr..
Nichols it is destined to resume its
former good record. The long cross.
cut tunnel driven during the early
DAYS Of Bullion has been brought into
play by having connections made
with it and upper workings OF the
mine, thus developing on the dip of
the vein by 1856 feet upraise. During
the year 1902 tons of ore was
shipped, from which the net proceeds
not counting cost of nining-was

from ore shipped within the past three
months. One lot Of 27t tons assayed

rally increased in the spring.
The Triumph mine is property on
he East Fork of Big Wood River,
belonging chiefly to Salt Lake par
les. During the past year they made
ome additions to the mill, which was
un but short time, and ore to the
'alue of some $4,000 or $4,000 was
hipped, all being concentrates. They
ave immense bodies of good concen-
rating ores on the 200 foot level, and
is large low-grade property.

It seems a little odd that the admins
tration has as yet taken no Steps for
the recall of Minister Egan from Chilli.
Such stolidity is wholly in excusable.
Has it not yet reached the ears of Mr..
Harrison that Egan is persona non
grata in that Republic Does Mr.. Har-
rison propose to keep Egan in Chill
whether the people there like him or
not? And if so, might it not be well to
give the American people, whose SER
want he is supposed to be, one or two
reasons for course so remarkable and
unprecedented?
When we send a gentleman to Eng
land, or France, Or Germany, or any
where else-except Chili-and the gov
eminent to which he is accredited eX-
presses the opinion that he is not &C
ceptable it has been our established
custom to recall him at once and sub
stitute some other person.
Why has Mr.. Harrison pursued an en-
tirely different policy with regard tC
the little Republic down South? Is ii
because it is little and the President
doesn't think it worth while to be
courteous?

FALL OF SNOW.

During Sunday last there was a fall of snow
mixed with mist. As the ground was warm and
the fall of snow light, it melted nearly as fast
as it fell, and scarcely covered the ground. The
mist was doubtless snow in the upper regions
of the air, which was melted as it entered the
warmer stratum of air nearer the earth. Later
in the evening and during the night, the lower
air was colder and the snow, formed in the
upper air, was not melted, hence fell to the
ground as snow and on Saturday morning, at
8 o'clock, when the fall of snow ceased, ii
measured on planks, on which it does not melt
much, to the depth of ten inches, though on
the ground the depth was considerably less
If all the snow which was formed in the up
per air had reached the ground as snow, and
if the ground had been frozen, the depth OF
the snow would probably have been IA inches.
During Sunday. the thermometer registered
several degrees above the freezing points,
degrees Fahrenheit-but on Saturday morn
ing it was down to that degree, and, after the
snow ceased to fall, the temperature rose, and
in the afternoon the thermometer registered
40 degrees, and the snow began to thaw; par
tieularly on the Southern exposures. The
weather continued to moderate, and even dur
ing the night thawing was continued. Yes-
terday the LIST day of March, the weather was
calm and pleasant and the thawing of the
snow was increased.

Fighting WhiskeY at a Gall.

On Monday night there was a dance
given by the colored people at the Fur
mace; the usual mix up and fight took
place. Jinks Banister shot Abram
Gregory three times, none of the
wounds being of a dangerous character.
Banister was arrested and taken before
the Mayor who assessed a fine of $50
and costs on him for carrying conceal
ed weapons, and sent the charge of as
sauit with intent to kill on to the grand
jury. This thing of carrying concealed
weapons of any kind has been made,
by a late act OF the Legislature, a seri-
Gus offence, aud the person caught
with deadly weapons OF any kind on
his person, will learn that he will not
only be fined but will lose his liberty.
The Governor has signed the bill and
it is now a law-GOshen Blade.
