FROM THE MINES
An Important ExpIoratIon.


The exploration which is
being conducted by Oglcbay,
Norton & Co. on lot z, section 20
1882 promises to have very i'm
portant bearings upon the future
OF the Crystal Falls iron district
and the City Of Crystal Falls.
Iron county has been known in
iron circles as q non besscmer
ore district. the only ore that is
within the Bessemer limit being
the Mansfield ore. but all this
may be changed and a besscmer
ore belt Of large proportions
shown up by the exploration
mentioned.
The bulk OF the ore bodies
that are being worked in this
locality lie about a mile south.
west Of the range of diorite that
extends along the north side OF
Paint river. No effort has ever
been made to test the territory
between these slate out-crop-
pings and the diorite although II
has been the firm belief Of iron
men for years that the swamps
that cover this stretch are
underlaid with ore. Last fall
John Hooper, one of the ardent
advocates Of the north vein
theory, decided 70 do some ex,
ploring close up TO the diorite.
The first pit he put down showed
up some ore that had different
appearance from any to the
south and an analysis showed
that il contained $50 per cent
metallic iron and but .003 phos.,
q high grade bessemer. He cen.
tinued his exploration as far as
he could without the aid OF
pumps and had several pits
bottomed in almost clean ore, all
Of it showing up as well as the
first upon analysis. The terri
tory is a very expensive one to
explore and he interested Supt.
Davidson in the property.
Samples taken by the latter
showed the same results as Mr..
Hooper had gotten and MIR.
Davidson decided to give the
land q thorough exploration.
TO that end diamond drill was
put upon the property, the sur
face Of quiclSsand being so deep
that other methods are imprac-
ticable, and IL hole is being put
down about 200 feet south of the
Hooper pits. The results which
they are getting are very graft
flying TO all concerned, but the
hole is not down far enough yet
to cut the ore found by Hooper
Should n bessemer ore be
found here. and it is about
assured that such an ore will bo
found, it will revolutionize the
theories and explorations in this
district. It will show that there
is a bessemer district between
the non bessemer and diorite
and will place this county by the
side of Marquette county as to
the quality of its ore as we'll as
TO quantity.

drift being destined to under
cut the open pit whore raise
will be put up, and the ore from
the pit milled down and hoisted
through the middle shaft. A
crushcr Is being put in place at
this shaft and all OF the product
will be run through it. The
west drift will be continued, we
are told. to the old Gilbert shaft
where raise will be put up and
the west end Of the property
given thorough exploration.
About 125 men are employed

produced one OF them being, high
in manganese. The Bristol was
an experiment at first but it is
proving to be big thing and
will be worked for all it is worth
in the future.
The old Hollister is being un-
watercd and will soon be pro-
ducing ore. The May mine is
nearly leased and we hope to
see the water flowing from its
workings before many moons.
The Alpha in Mastodon town

old shaft is being sunk another

good.
The Michigan, ut Amasa, has
been taken in by the Oliver
people who have proved up q
body Of ore and will soon put in
a plant of machinery and get TO
shipping ore.
In the line Of new explora-
tons Pickands. Mather & Co.
have had q drill on the land
south Of the Dunn and have now
moved il TO the Wilkinson lands
west Of the Shafer. They have
also had a drill working upon
the Mas exploration south Of
the Mansfield and upon the
Coleman property adjoining the
Mansfield. Besides the drill
work they have an exploration
further down the Michigamme
and one near the Hope that is
very promising. Oglebay, Nor
ton & Co. have the exploration
north of the Monitor, and Corri-
gan. Mckinney & Co have an
exploration on lot three. west OF
the Monitor. The Minnesota
Iron company has explorations
on section % in 1888 and
upon section seven in 1922.
There are OF least a dozen small
explorations that are being
carried on by individuals, the
most prominent Of these being
the Fleseiem near the Smith
and the Gibson near Amasa..
A serious drawback to explor-
alton is the scarcity Of labor.
This cause has kept the Smith
mine and ut least two other
mines we could mention from
being further explored, How
ever, should the last half of the
year show up in proportion &c
the first half the people of this
district will have their expecta-
tons more than realized.

TWO SIMPLE AND DELICIOUS
WAYS OF COOKING FISH.
tBy Mrs. Mary j. LincoIn.)

tBy Mrs Mary ]. Lincoln.)
Boiling is a common but not attractive
way of cooking fish.
Except for salmon, or a thick piece of
| halibut or other very large fish. it is a
wasteful and unpalatable method. To
broil or fry fish is not always convenient.
| Possibly this method of stewing fish
may be new to some of our readers. 1t
| Is suitable for a small cod, haddock,
| piekerel, bass, or any dry white fish. By
dry and white. mean fish that has no
oily dark flesh. like that of mackerel.
| blue fish, ets., for the oil is all in the
| liver instead of among the muscles.
1t always pays to be sure that such
fish is free from bones and skin, and
yet one does not care to waste the good
material that adheres to them. There
fore always remove the skin and bones
first, break them up and cover them
(and the head also If you have whole
fish, with cold water Let them simmer
for an hour or until the bones are clean.
If you like the flavor of onions-they are
usually well suited to fish-slice and
seald two small onions, drain and brown
them slightly in a little salt pork fat,
and then pour all into the kettle with
the bones
While the bones are boiling cut the
fish into two-inch pieces, season with
salt and pepper, put them into stew
pan in which is one tablespoon of lemon
juice and one tablespoon Of butter melt
ing, cook them few minutes at very
moderate heat, turning them over until |
we'll buttered, but do not let them fry. |
Cfrafv tho hpFlfpg hopa patar. nxsqr the /
fish using only enough TO cover well. |
These proportions are for three or four |
pounds of fish.
Cook one heaped tablespoon of butter |
and two heaped tablespoons of flour to-
gether till blended. add them to the stew
when boiling. and mix well. Simmer
Is minutes, add more salt and pepper IL
needed. and one tablespoon chopped
parsley and good table sauce or any pre-
ferred catsup. Dish and serve without
breaking the fish.
Halibut is a dry, white fish and often
Is made more dry by the way il is baked.
Select thick piece from below the mid
die for baking This gives you uni
form pieces each side of the bone
1t is desirable to keep the skin on TO
preserve the shape in cooking, but it
should be scraped well, and the black
skin If dipped in boiling water will near
ly all scrape off. Rub the fish with salt
and pepper put 1t flesh side up in a pan
to fit, and pour milk over 1t TIL half an
inch deep in the pan. Bake a three or
four pound piece about an hour, longer
II 1t is in cubical than If in a long thin
shape. Basic it often with the milk
Melt a little butter in the milk later on,
and at the last let the milk cook away.
Remove 1t from the oven and peel Off
the skin, then loosen the flesh from the
bone and remove the bone Sprinkle
the fish with fine buttered cracker ,
crumbs and return TO the oven until
slightly Drowned. Take out on platter

I white House Has None for the first
Time in Many Administrations.
There are no children in the white
house now. says Washington letter
to the Chicago Inter Ocean. 1t is the
first administration since that Of Bu-
chanan where there have not been chill
dren in the presidents family. Lincoln
had three boys when he came 10 the
white house, and the Christmas festi-
val was celebrated with enthusiasm in
the good old-fashioned way with a
Santa Claus. Grant had his three boys
and the pretty Nellie to make merry at
Christmas time. Hayes had a complete
domestic household, with romping boys
and a winsome little girl, who has
grown to womanhood and has recently
been spending her honeymoon at the
white house, where she was child.
Garfield and Arthur had children to
celebrate Christmas. and Cleveland In
the last year of his first administra-
tion had a baby girl to make Christmas
for. Harrison's children were grown
to manhood, but he had his grand
children with him in the white house,
and Baby Mckee became more cele-
brated character in the child history OF
the white house than any since Ted Lin
coin. In Cleveland's second administra-
ton there were two little girls to well
come Santa Claus. There are pictures
of two beautiful babies In Mrs. McKin-
ley's room and many fond remem-
brances OF them, but they sleep in the
old graveyard at Canton, where they
were buried many years ago.
No president ever occupied the white
house who was fonder of children than
the present chief magistrate. No mis-
tress of the white house ever had more
loving care for the babies OF others than |
has Mrs Mckinley. They both love the
prattle of children and gather the |
little ones Of their friends about them
when opportunity offers.
