Sold Fer $4,000.

A great deal of interest has been
manifested this season in the Willow
Creek district in Idaho and quite a
number of sales there have been re-
ported Of late, among the number be-
ing the Birthday mine, regarding
which the Boise Statesman says:
1t is learned that the considera ton
of the deal whereby Duluth OMinn.)
parties become the owners of three
fourths of the Birthday mine and all
of five other adjoining properties at
Willow Creek, is $4,000 A portion of
this has been paid down, and the
deeds have been placed in escrow.
The purchaser, B. D. Brown, who act
ed for himself and other Duluth cap
italiSts. has until October l next to
pay the balance. but it is expected he
will make the final payment long be-
fore that. 1t is said Mr.. Brown will
organize a company to work the mines
vigorously. He is well pleased with
the properties and with the price paid,
for II is understood the mines were
originally held at $25, 600.
The properties included in the deal.
in addition to the Birthday, are the
Old Man, Grey Eagle, Silver Spray,
Black Bear and Denver. All the prop
critics were tied up by John Tonkin,

The three-fourths interest in the
Birthday was owned by Anderson and
James Cox and Charles Hurt The
other third is owned by D. B. Levan.
The Birthday is the only property
in the group that has been developed
to amount to anything. Mr.. Brown
says in the Birthday there is $50, 900 of
ore in sight now.
The deal is considered of the highest
owners will establish large plant on
the group.

contract on the Extra Sessions in Pine
gulch, promising property soon to be
patented. Altogether about 500 feet of
work has been done on the claim, ex-
posing large amount of ore of pay
grade. The vein shows thirty-five feet
width and hanging wall not in sight.
Air connection was made on the Goth
in the Montezuma, giving fine circu-
! lation. Production is now resuming,
and the output and shipments from
this on will make up for lost time.
During August several hundred tons
! OF Montezuma ore are liable to hit the
market
About the 1st of May Superintendent
Hydell began crosscut in the Navajo
group to cut the main ledge at 500 feet,
and has progressed one-fifth of the dis
! lance. The property is bonded to Ian
derman & Howe and consists of the
Navajo, Monaco and Silver Bell
claims, on each of which is exposed
by shaft streak of good milling ore.
News of a good strike comes from
the Centennial group in Markham
gulch, above the Montezuma mine.
The property was taken under a two
years lease about three months ago by
William Thornton and Joe Slama. They
began sinking a shaft, but were driven
out by water and started a crosscut.
In twenty feet they encountered the
VEIN, ana now nave between two and
three feet of mineral, said to resemble
Julia Dean ore. They are now working
by day and night shift and confident
of opening up a paying mine. Thou
sands of dollars have been expended
by former outfits in trying to locate
the Centennial vein, and much impor-
lance is attached to the present find by
parties acquainted with the property.
A. L. and Dan Heaston have their
novel water-power jigs working in
great shape, and while the God-fear-
ing people of the neighborhood COM
plain that something is drying up
their cows, just the same the boys
are treating about twelve and one-half
tons of ore Ger day each from the
Montezuma and Julia Dean mines,
with very satisfactory results. The
Montezuma has over 1000 tons of jig
ging ore on its dump, while its daily
output of that class is sufficient to
keep one machine busy The Julia
Dean also keeps ahead of the other.
The machinery is rudely but ingen-
iously constructed and put together,
quite original in application, and a
credit to the inventive resources of A.
L. Heaston.

Monday, a week ago, the United
States surveying party commenced

fifteen to twenty miles wide and about
sixty miles long, and is known to con-

anywhere. Copper and gold, however,

been known to exist there by old pros
pectors for many years, but not until
last fall could the Indians be prevailed
upon to sell it. The amount paid by
the government was 81. 500. 600.
According to Mr.. Carney. about thirty
five years age prospectors were in that
country looking for gold, but quartz
mines were overlooked in the search

fruitful on this account. In thoss days
that country was infested with hostile

Macedonia, since the Greek insurgents
invaded Macedonia and made the at

The inroads by Greek insurgents to

by the condition of affairs in Crete,

as much sympathy from the Greeks
as have the Cuban insurgents from

not seem probable that the present
Macedonian disturbance is connected
