The Military Ball.

The military ball last FRIDAY
night drew out the largest crowd
that has attended dance in
Grangeville for several years.
Whether it was the dance, or the
drill, or ratification of McKinleys
inauguration we know not, but the
fact remains that an immense
amount of satisfaction was derived
from it and all went as merrily as
the proverbial wedding bells. The
drill by Major Edwards, of
Lewiston, resulted in the award of
the gold medal to Sergeant r. II.
Hartman and the silver medal to
Corporal Farm Mclean. For a long
time it was nip and tuck between
these contestants and they went
through the manual of arms with
the rapidity and precision of regu-
lars, and evoked loud applause
from the spectators and warm COM
mendation from Maj. Edwards.
Farm is one of our home bred
Camas prairie lads, and while
young in years shows enough of
steady application to the work in
hand to encourage the belief that
he has the making of a valuable
citizen. At the close of the drill
the dancers captured the floor and
held it until broad daylight. Ex-
cellent music by Rirps and Roma
brake, and high grade supper in
the banquet room overhead fur
nished by r. D. Shearer were
commendable features of the nights
pleasure. 1t was indeed an old
time Camas prairie dance.

FROM GOLDEN FLORENCE.
Our Correspondent Describes the
Locations on the Southern
Mineral Zone Of the
Famous Camp.
Florence, March 8, 1897

AAOACAlCC, 4AdICu o, 1Cc6.
EDITOR FREE PRESS. Since my
former report I have carried my
investigation into other sections Of
the camp. In particular the Sal
mon river slope, where much de-
velopment is now under way.
Gilmore and Potter are pushing
work on their property; at the face
of their drift, 140 feet from portal
I find good ore, though they must
extend the drift about 80 feet
further before the real ore deposit,
as shown on the surface, is ex-
posed. Quartz shown me by the
owners taken from their shaft
shows free gold in quantities to ex-
cite the curiosity of gold
seekers. Anderson Bros. in the
vicinity, are driving a tunnel to in
tersect the ore body at depth of
200 feet; this claim also shows
quartz carrying gold plainly visi-
BILE to the naked eye. One half
mile to the west, Scott, Harold
and Letter are doing extensive de-
velopment on the Bear and Mar
mouth, both large we'll defined
lodes. At the face of their drift,
$50 feet from entrance, quartz car
ries gold of the coarser order, some
pieces literally speckled with gold.
This company can get 1000 feet
depth by tunnel and drive on the
lode. On the north and adjoining
Mr.. Claude Flint is busy at work
on the Peerless, which looks fine
indeed. A 250-foot drift is now
being pushed with the utmost
speed. This drift cuts the forma-
ton, tapping the lode $50 feet in
depth.
AT the north and parallelling is
the Ben Hur and Virginia; Rey-
nolds, Hawley and Galloway own
ers. The first named lode is one
of the best showings for a great
mine that I have examined in that
mineral zone. The lode at the
bottom of shaft, 20 feet in depth,
measures even feet wide, and
mostly quartz. The tunnel site
on this property is ono of the best;
1900 feet Of depth can be obtained
and drive on ore from the start.
Adjoining the Ben Hur is the
Zenith location, with excellent
tunnel facilities. This claim is
owned by S. A. Moon. The lode
is IL feet wide inside of granite
wall. The quartz carries free gold.
In the same locality is the Gam
BETA, Cote, Exter, Elder and many
others that have every indication
when developed, will be producers
of the highest standard. The sum-
nation of the south gold belt of
Florence has superior advantages
in working; ample water power for
mills, large ore veins, and less
snow than in the basin, making
that section very favorable for
mining operations; and those who
are seeking for above qualities
combined can be gratified by in
specting the Salmon river slope
and mineral zone.
Another steam hoist just landed
in camp; three more on the road
in; also two 10-stamp mills. This
indicates that the gold fields of
Florennce are attracting attention
of the mining fraternity, and this
year will reveal ore deposits in the
hills of Florence that will startle |
the most skeptic. r. E. B.
