BIG BUFFALO ALL RIGHT,
Craven Talks With a Minep WOriin5 ]
OF the Shaft. y

Ill. Ii. Craven, who came to this
city from Spokane some three
months ago with the intention of
embarking in business, is back
from the Hump. He found on his
first arrival all lines of business
well represented in Grangeville,
and concluded to try his luck in
mining rather than the mercantile
line.
"a steam hoist is now working
on tie Big Buffalo shaft, ! said Mr..
Craven this morning. "What they
appear 60 need there as much as
any ti ing is more experienced
miners. OF course, green hands
are easy to get, but they require a
larger number of men who know
their business.
Gan the employees working on
the Big Buffalo have received ord
ers to keep their mouth shut. One
of the most experienced men they
have on the day shift was in one of
the saloons at the Hump a few
days ago, just before | started for
town. He had been drinking
heavily and two of us tried TO
pump him. He started by saying
he knew his business, gave his
tory of his mining experience and
wound up by saying the Big Buff
falo shaft was all right, and show
ing up a id side better than q
month ago. We proceeded to ply
him with questions, wbereupon he
shut up like clam, and the
drunken he became the less we
could get out OF him.
"However, it is thoroughly un-
derstood in the camp that the Big
Buffalo mine is rapidly increasing
in value The main trouble from
now until the middle Of June will
be the difficulty of getting pro-
visions into the camp. In point OF
fact / fail to see how this is to be
done. Already between Mt. idaho
and Slate creek the horses are up
to their bellies in soft snow. Be
tween Slate creek and the Divide.
or Klotz's at the head of Wind
river, where one has to foot it. IA
man sinks up to his neck and often
out of sight. Now will you tell
me how horses If they cannot raw
hide stuff in, can travel through
that slush with a pack on their
backs? If man cannot get over
it, horse can't. Had the route
followed the old Indian trail along
the ridge instead Of down to Slate
creek, there would be good travel
ing to the Hump today. On the
ridge and at the Hump the snow is
firm and deep as ever with more
falling daily
Mr.. Craven starts for Spokane
today and will return in the course
of a fortnight. He has secured a
couple of good claims at the Hump,
viz: the Genivive No. and Carrie
G, besides interests in a couple of
others.

aries are not provided for in thu
present law in the meaning Of tn,

J legislature had no right to delegat,

Exposure TO cold in Alaska, es-

for hours and toast their shins to per-

wind with the hat on the back of the
head, the coat unbuttoned, or the neck
insufficiently protected. In the course
of few hours they rack their minds
to find ont why this cold in the head,
why this weakness and other ailment
which are the sure forerunner of pneu
monia, grip or meningitis. Others will
stand on street corners until the mus
cles of their feet twitch and a chill
runs up the back from cold. Others will
keep bundled all day in furs. woolen
underclothes, heavy stockings, high
shoes and warm overshoes, with wool
en- cap pulled down over the head, leav
ing only part of the face exposed. In
a burst of confidence in the atmos-
pheric conditions they will throw open
