Clearwater Mining District.

H Good reports continue to come
'sstn daily of good showing made by
1he development now being done
\ n the Clearwater district. On the
aWar Eagle group, owned by
Eugene Weaver and Gus. Shultz,
-FOUR miles from Grangeville, a
y ':rosscut tunnel SO feet long has
,'been driven tapping the ledge at a
tdepth below the grass roots of SO
Meet, and showing lots of fine
J copper ore and also showing ASSAY
values of gold and silver. The
owners have drifted on the vein at
] this depth for a distance of eight
feet, and the ledge is growing
wider and the values better as the
work proceeds. Assays of the
surface rock show values of from
80 to $25 per ton. At the so foot
level the ore goes from $75 to 800
per ton in gold and silver, besides
carrying good percentage in
copper.
The War Eagle lies east of the
Copper Cent claim and another
strike was made adjoining this
claim last week by S. S. and H. M.
Coston, which they have called the
Skooknm Rock, which has the
same general appearance Of all the
ores in that section and gives
equally good values in the crucible
The fact is that there is being
rapidly developed in that section
a mighty good camp, and from
the amount Of work now going on,
and the interest it is attracting in
mining circles, we are going to
have a profitable and productive
camp close at home.

Another Dredge for Florence.

Another Dredge for Florence.
Walter II. Hill has returned
from Florence where he has been
on professional business. He
states that there is still some snow
in the basin but rapidly disappear
ing. The dredge of the Florence
Dredging Company has been
shoveling gravel some three weeks,
and the president and secretary
OF the company, who are on the
ground, are very well pleased with
the result SO far. In all proba-
bility they will install one or more
dredges on their property.
Florence basin is admirably stu
ated for dr.dging plants. The
bed rock is soft and can be
shovelled to some depth, the
gravel where it exists is all small
and light and no cemented gravel
has been found to interfere with
the cheap working and washing OF
the entire deposit. Many rich
spots OF virgin ground have been
covered up under the debris OF
years OF placer workings, and this,
together with the loss of early day
mining and the subsequent depos-
ition OF gold from the disintegration
OF the detritus exposed to the
elements, make very good aver
age ground for dredge. There
are thousands of acres of this
character of ground in the Florence
camp, and there are plenty of op-
portunities to work a dozen ma
chimes in this field,

Negro Artist w ins a P

Three awards of honor in the sixty
ninth annual exhibition of the Penn
sylvania Academy Of the Fine Arts,
Philadelphia, have been announced. .
The Walter Lippincott rizs Of $500 for
the best figure painting In the exhibi
ton by an American artist was award
ed to Henry o. Tanner, son of Bishop
Tanner, of the African Methodist Epis-
copal Church, for his picture enti tied
"Nicodemus. The painting represents
Christ and Nicodemus on the house
tops.
This is the third prize won by Artist
Tanner, and his success, achieved as it
has been by sheer merit, is a source Of
uDmeasured pride to the race to which
dence, illustrative Of the wonderful re-
cuperative power OF the Negro that
when one championship laurel is wrest
ed from him, he almost instantly fol-
lows up the defeat by stronger and
more enduring triumph in a higher
walk of life. Examples might be mul'
tiplied but one Is sufficient, George
Dixon loses the featherweight cham
piOnsblp, but Mr.. Tanner more than
fills the gap in our prestige by his
triumph ia the artistic world.
Mr.. Tanners famous picture "The
Annunciation" occupies a CONSPICUOUS
place in the French gallery OF fine arts
at Paris.

Fair ones who do not care to go to-
the expense of taff'eta slips for wear
underneath sheer summer frocks, and
who also do not care for lawn slips,
are interested IN the new Mercerizel
satines.
For those who use the thin lawn for
foundation dresses and draw the line
at two foundation skirts, this satine
will be just the thing you know how
wretched a skimpy affair is.
Of course, this foundation skiE9
must be as long rs the outer skirt, atd
its finishing rufies should be OF cd
terial to suit the overdress.
In this case there will be no hnh'
transparent space between the rnthes
on the edge of the foundation sklfU
and the regulation petticoat-and tals
