There is much activity again in tho
Garden City district, which is a low
grade section Of the Hills, but the ore
Is especially amenable to the cyanide
process. Most Of the ground is owned
by organized companies, which keep
up the assessment work every year.
The Edna Exploration company has
recently been organized by Deadwood
business men for the purpose of devel-
oping three or four promising proper
ties In the camp. On one Of them q

Of the Bald Mountain country. and it
Is believed that the fiat formation.
which produces sue a large amout of
ore further south, will be found on tho
Quartzite level there.
The May & johnson mine has been
unwatered, and the probability is that
a large deal will be consummated this
month. 1t is stated that the Portland
Mining company Of Clinton, Iowa, 10Y
operating extensively in the Bald
Mountain country and is treating its
ore in a fifty-toa cyanide plant at Gen.
trail City, has bonded the May & john
son ground for 500, 900. There are six
ty-six mining claims on the ground.
which have been exploited, well on the
south end, and on some claims on the
north end. Ore has been encountered
in the 250-foot shaft, and a 2Oo-foot
cross-cut has opened up a shoot OF cy-
aniding ore Ave feet thick and over

What is the difference between whis-
ky and whiskey? Most people imagine
that 1t is = mere difference in spelling,
but a correspondent writes that, in an
swer to a written order for whisky,
given to a spirit merchant, Scotch was
sent. This led to a personal interview
with the seller, at which it was pointed
out that the customer always bought
Irish, lever Scotch. The order was re-
ferl ed to, and the merchant, placing his
finger on the word whisky, said, with
out an &C. 1T denoted Scotch; If Irish
was required the spelling hould be
whiskey. 1t would be interesting to
