spokane Review.
Harry Glidden, who is at Flor
ence, Idaho, pushing development
work on the Banner, writes: ebay
before yesterday we struck another
streak of good ore that will aver
age IA inches in width, and along
side of it (this is in the crosscut %
feet below the Mclean shaft in the
upraise) about Is inches of decom-
posed ledge matter. l have just
come out, and the shots at noon
disclosed from 10 inches to one
foot more ore of a character SINH
lar to the ore above, and very
good. The crosscut is in from the
footwall between 26 and % feet,
and the last ore is rieh-will run
about $50. We are saving all the
stuff across the ledge, and l believe
from pan tests it will average at
least SO across the whole 90 to 2S
feet. There is still ore in the face,
but l believe the next five feet will
give us the hanging wall. l think
we shall begin to catch the ledge
in the lower crosscut at the bot
tom of the raise inside of the next
10 to Is feet. We could hear
nothing in there until today, and
now we can hear the men above
drilling quite plainly, and l believe
the sound is carried down by the
vein."
Frank Culbertson, general mana
ger of the Tiger Poorman at Burke,
Idaho, started yesterday for Flor
snoe, He is accompanied by an
expert mill man, Mr., Bishop, who
has been employed to put up and
run Huntington mill, with Ca
pacity of 20 tons per day. 1t is
expected that the mill will be in
operation some time in September.
The machinery has been shipped,
will be taken to Riparia on the
o. X. & n, shipped by boat to
Lewiston, and then be freighted in
by teams to Florence, 1875 miles
from Lewiston. The roads are in
good condition. Mr.. Culbertson
will return in about 10 days. Mr..
Glidden will remain indefinitely
His wife is with him, and Mrs
Elmendorf is their guest. Mrs.

sentiment by their Endorsements,
and being thorough advocates of
civil service reform, backed up
their appreciation Of efficiency and
discharge of duty by their COM
mendable actions, showing their
belief in purity in politics and a
total disregard of the old maxim
that qualifications consists in bend
ing to the whip of bantam politi-
CLANS, and their disgust to the

Accident at the Warehouse,

Lewiston Teller.
A serious accident occurred at
the warehouse Yesterday about Il
a. m. James II. Upton, Of Den
yer, Idaho, was assisting to load
some mining machinery and was
caught under a heavy grating and
crushed and cut.
A carload of mining machinery
for the Badger district had been
put in one pile in the warehouse
The freighters were trying to get
out the lighter pieces and had not
noticed that some heavy pieces
above were about to fall. Upton
and others were lifting upon a
piece of grating weig hing over a
ton when the pile took tumble.
The others jumped, but the Grating
pinned Upton to the floor while
the other pieces piled upon him.
One piece fell upon his head cut
ting a cash several inches long
over the lett eye. One ankle was
strained and one thigh badly
bruised. Doctors Morris and Phil
lips were called and dressed the
wounded man. Though suffering
from soreness and pain Mr.. Upton
is not in any danger and will prob
ably 60 home today with the

We think SO. In this county many
are holding on to properties that
for want of means they cannot
make productive, and yet wher
offers are made for them by others
who have the required means
they resolutely persist in the dog

G. B. King returned last Sunday
from two weeks trip to Florence
mining district, where he is heav-
lily interested in the Hi-yu, Home
stake and other properties. He
says they are looking well and de-
velopment work on the Hi-Yu
gives very satisfactory results.
The propositions are free milling
and Mr.. King will soon put mill
on the ground In speaking of
other properties he says that the
Banner and Goldbug are two Of
the most promising in the camp
and have over 200 tons of rich
ore on the dump. The Red Horse
is shut down at present, but will
soon resume operations. The Red
Bird, Poorman, Edward d and
Cleopatra are all under develop
ment and show a fine body Of ore.
A feature of the camp worthy of
notice is that these properties i'm
psdve with depth. Mr.. King is
very sanguine of the future of the
district and has unbounded faith
in its richness.-C9ur d'Alene

"The Elk Horn is a pretty prop

working seven or eight men sink
