MINING NOTES.

George Connors, superintendent of
the Hiyu mine at Florence, Idaho, re-
ports that the snow is going off rapidly.
This will give better opportunity for
earlier development work in the wet
claims than there has been for years.
Preparations are be ng made to open
the Hlyu as early as practicable
The Humming Bird Mining Company
OF Burke, Idaho, has four men at work
on new tunnel, which starts from the
Tiger side, running northwest. The
ledge is covered where it comes down
the mountain side on the east toward
Canyon creek, but it is expected that
the new tunnel will cut it in from $50
to 200 feet.
Encouraging news comes from the
Last Chance Group to be tapped by a
tunnel from Government gulch.
In the Palmer Mountain tunnel the
foot wall of the goth we'll defined vein
has been encountered. Lying next the
wall is foot of white quartz mineral
lied all through, and showing free gold.
The next six feet, which is up to the
face of the tunnel, is all ledge matter,
thoroughly mixed with white quartz,
while the face is full of quartz seams
and mineralized ledge matter. This
has the appearance of being one of the
richest Lodges cut into. The wall was
cut at 1888 feet in and 1900 vertical
depth. Assays are not yet out, but
there is sufficient free gold visible to
assure its high value.
The tunnel has reached a territory
in which the surface showings are the
best on the mountain, with one eYcep-
ton, the Grand Summit The Helena
Belle should be cut in the next 200 to
400 feet. The driving of the tunnel
through this distance, and the cutting
of the Helena Belle vein will be watch
ed with much interest, not only by the
tunnel people, but by every one inter
ested in Palmer Mountain properties.

From all the mining camps around
Kaslo good news comes. The reports
all indicate that the season of dizziness
is passing and that active months are
in sight.
Andrew Laidlaw of Spokane has
bonded the Moreen claim, in Deadwood

south extension of the Buckhorn niue,
and has it's ledge. 1t is owned by Harry
Shallenberger of Spokane, who Las

bond runs till February next, and the
frst payment was made today.
Henry Hess and Charles Miller sold
the Silver Tip on Toby creek, Winder-
mere, in the northern part of East
Kootenay, for $4,000. The first pay
ment of $4,000 was made in cash. Sam
Scander Of this town made the deal on
behalf of the Morris syndicate, a
French company.
remarkable body of ore has been
encountered on the 100-foot level of the
Buckhorn in Deadwood camp. The
machines are drilling in solid chalco-
pyrite that fills the breast of the drift.
1t is one of the most important strikes
made in the Boundary district.
The Silver SLOGAN has long been fam
Gus for its high grade silver-lead prop
critics And that part of it near Silver
ton has held its own. In addition to its
rich silver properties Silverton is
blessed with a section of great veins
or copper gold ores. The character of
the ores in this gold belt is very like
mat from the great producers at Ross
land. The area is of about the same
extent and the formation almost iden-
ucal. This gold belt is only three miles
south of Silverton and when developed
must be great factor to the up-build-
ing OF the town and country.
A big mining deal has been on the
tapis in Cascade. A representative of

Corea seems a good way from here.
and it is, but we can snip a ton of
freight from New York to our mines
near the Yaloo river as cheaply as the
same ton can be sent to the mountains
of Idaho, and just about as quickly too.
We have been interested in mining for
five years now on a concession covering
1000 square miles. Our lease has %
years to run. We have the right to
mine any mineral, but we have confined
our attention to gold alone. All of our
machinery is of American manufacture
as this country makes the best ma
chinery for mining purposes in the
world.
COrea is picturesque, beautiful fer
tile, with an excellent climate and an
industrious and agreeable people. At
our mines we employ Is white men and
5000 coolies. We are the pioneers there
and we had to overcome all the obsta-
cles in a new and in most respects a
wild country. There are many good
fields in COrea, as the country possesses
a continuation of the gold-bearing out
crops of Siberia and Manchuria, both
of which are bound to be great gold
producers. The Coreans have been min
ing with crude methods for many CEN
turtles, and they are still at it.
There is an immense opening for en-
terprise and capital there, which will
undoubtedly be supplied as soon as it
is understood that the United States
government will protect it's citizens in
all legitimate foreign enterprises. The
orientals are kindly disposed towards
Americans for many reasons, but chief
ly because they recognize that Ameri-
cans are not seeking political empire,
and they feel that from them they can
receive the most desirable assistance in
industrial and commercial improve
ment.
The enterprises which are now start
ing over there are bewildering, but 1t
is hardly a poor mans country. The
opportunity is favorable for associated
capital in large amounts skillfully d..
rected, but not for individuals.

The four-story brick building at the cor

Pittsburg, Pa, occupied by Armstrong,
McKelvey & Co., wholesale paint dealers,
collapsed without warning recently. A
score or more of people were in the build
ing and many were buried in the ruins.
The cause of the accident was the weak

that nearly all of the imprisoned employees
escaped with but slight injuries. OF five
carpenters at work in the building but one
