In Florence Camp.
Spokane Review.

Spokane Review.
Through the courtesy of
Manager Ed Lortscher the
correspondent was shown
through the tunnel and sur
face workings of the What
Cheer Gold Mining and Mill
ing Co., a handsome property
situated on the breaks of the
Salmon river five miles from
the town of Florence.
The first discovery was
made in June, 1897, by Will
Jams, Morrell and Lortscher,
and they Immediately set to
work showing up the vein by
a system of trenches and sink
ing shaft to a depth of o5
feet, with a drift of 70 feet on
the vein from which between
20 and 80 tons of ore averag-
ing $74 per ton at the mill
was extracted. For economy
in working, a tunnel was then
commenced running east on
the ledge 325 feet which is
still sushing ahead as fast as
possible. Fifteen feet from
the mouth the ore chute was
struck and for a distance of
1863 feet averages three feet in
width, running in value about
$40 per ton. Here the vein
faulted and a smooth, hard,
granite wall was confronted,
and disappeared. Not at all
discouraged, the company run
a small cross cut to the north
20 feet where they again en-
countered their vein larger
and more solid than ever. At
the breast of the tunnel gag
feet from the mouth, vertical
depth of 225 feet is attained
which gives some idea of the
great tunnel advantages pos
sessed by this company. A
few months ago a one.fourth
interest was sold to Mr.. Win
dus of Pullman, representing
English capital for $4,000, and
a stock company was imme-
diately formed.
Six claims are embraced in
the What Cheer group,
through which three parallel
veins are distinctly traced a
distance of over 1000 feet. A
fine water power is possessed
by the company on the prop
erty at the confluence of the
two streams and it is their in
tention as soon as the condi-
ton of the roads is favorable
to bring in a mill for the treat
ment of their ores, and to com
mence bore near the mill
site, tapping all three of the
lodges at depth of from 500
to 500 feet.
Near to and adjoining the
What Cheer group is the In.
dex, Pointer and Usage claims.
On the Index a short tunnel is
driven into the hill, exposing a
fine ledge of quartz, measur
ing three feet in width. With
the proper amount of develop.
ment work a fine showing
could undoubtedly be made on
this property which is at pres.
ent lying dormant, pending
sale to outside parties. |

Much Activity at Warrens.

]. A. Czizek, the Warrens
mining man, is a Boise visitor.
He reports that the camp is
filled with people, but mining
operations have been interior
ed with by lack of supplies.
Mr.. Czizek is manager of the
Idaho Consolidated Mining Co.
owning the Goodenough group
of five claims, and the Mt.
Clemens and Idaho Mining Co.,
owning the Mammoth group
of three claims. He had a
force of men at work develop
ing the Mammoth during the
winter but was recently oblig-
ed to close down that property
and the Goodenough because
he ran out of mining supplies.
In the fall he put in a large a.
mount of these supplies, de-
pending on the merchants for
the balance. After that the
Honest John Company began
operations. Mr.. Czizek had
relied on the stores for help.
ing him out before the opening
of spring, but the Honest John
Company's work made a great
er demand than any one had
expected, the result being that
the stores were exhausted and
theprincipal mines had to close.
MIR. Click is working a few
men prospecting, but every
thing else under his manage
ment is waiting for the open
ing of the roads.
He has done 500 feet of work
on the Mammoth since the
first of January. The proper
ty makes a fine showing. The
Goodenough is opened to a
depth of 900 feet and has a
large amount Of drifts. This
is the deepest work in the camp
and the ore is better than at
any point on the surface. The
Goodenough has a S stamp
mill. 1t made a short run last
fall and took out some $1,000.
An addition of 10 stamps is to
be made this spring. The ma
chinery for this is on the road
and will be taken in just as soon
as the roads are passable.
There is also an electric plant
on the road for the company.
1t will furnish light for the
mine and mill.
The Honest John Company
owns the lola group. Captain
Wood is manager, Mr.. Zelle
being in charge at this time.
The property is extensively
developed, having about 1900
feet of work done on it. It is
opened 200 feet deep. The
company has a 1o.stamp mill
on the way. The machinery
was started in last fall but was
caught by the snow and is ly.
ing at The Meadows.
The Bedrock Flume Company
has had a force of men at work
prospecting during the winter.
They have cut the channel and
found it very rich, and work
is to be begun at once on the
flume, which will be two or
three miles in length. The
company will invest about
100000 in putting in its
