Palouse, Wash, August 9.-W. j..
Springer, of New Hampton, Ia, writes
from there that he has secured capital
to work the Blue Bird and eight claims
in the Hoodoo district. He has en-
ployed M. w. Truax as manager OF the
mine and authorized him TO begin work
at once and push development.
Mr.. Truax put double shift to
work and the property will be
thoroughly developed. The Blue Bird
is a copper property showing high
values, and now that capital has been
secured to develop it is expected to be-
come a valuable producer.

company is putting in plant for its
eventual operation at $500 feet depth.
This plant would include two 400-horse

a capacity OF 20 drills and hoist that
could operate the mine to the 2500-foot
level The installation of these i'm
