the facts surrounding the place, am OF
the opinion that the. miners who many
years ago were engaged In working the
mine were entombed by the cave In, and
when the tunnel is opened it would not
surprise me at all TO lind thoir bleaching
bones lying within.
"Tho story of the fabulous richness OF
the Lost Cabin mine, however, is not sus-
tained upon investigation The ore body
now exposed Is fully eight feet wide, with
n well defined upper wall. We brought
samples from the croppings taken from
three different points, which, when assayed
by Mr. Weed, gave tho following results:
No /, S53.74 in gold; Nos. and Is, q
trace Of gold.
"The combined returns were rather dis
couraging, but we concluded to expose tho
mine by way Of the cross vein. From each
side Of the center we took samples. which
q few days ago we submitted to Mr.. Fas-
sett for assay. Here are the returns as
certified to by him:
Silver. Gold.
No. .....................W 9l sl3 ~
NO. e'''''''''''''''','''.'''''. G
NO. 5........................... o2 Iz ei
"The average of gold from the three as
says was s23.l5.
"These last assays show very conclu-
sively to my mind that the mine Is most
valuable property, especially In view Of
the fact that 10 is easily worked and trans
fortation facilities can be secured by way
Of Lake Cnur 'Alene at a very small ex-
pense. We have made arrangements to
develop the property. We will also open
tho tunnel right away, when expect will
be revealed the secret OF the disappearance
of the original discoverers Of the Lost
Cabin mine whom am firmly convinced
are entombed within. spokane Chron-

TO the Editor of the Press:


Dear Sir-I noticed Ia your paper few
days ago, an account of break in the
Nail Trust, and the heavy reduction in
the price of nails. and also noticedEthat it
was denied by a communication from
Mr.. King OF the King 8 Dexter Hard
ware company, who claimed to know
nothing about such break In the trust.
have now before me, the "Iron Age, +"
of November 26th, and find that the
item in your paper was correct; that
there had been break In the price Of
nails Of over one dollar per key, ana
enclose you a sheet from the "Iron Age, "
showing the state of the market. when
this paper went to press.
AS your paper was the only one In the
city that gave this information,
thought 1t might interest you to know
thRt your information was correct.
There is no doubt but what, in the
prasent state of the market on nails,
there will be still further break in
price, after the meeting Of the associa-
tion the first Of December, and those
who can hold ont until after that date
will probably see low prices on nails.
Yours respectfully,
T.. S. LA UGHLIN.
