ing the development OF the Copper Hill
with interest.
At Burke. Idaho. the Hercules has
cut It's ledge. and while not yet in as
far as 1t was expected tina: the tunnel
would have to go to gel ore. some ore
OF very fair grade was found where
the tunnel cut the vein.
During the month Of April the mill
OF the Great Northern Mining 4 Devel
opment company at Gilt Edge, Mont,
crushed 4l00 tons of ore. and the pro-
duction Of the mill In bullion was $33,.
600. The average value Of the ore was
a little more than IS per ton.
An effort is being made by prominent
stockholders OF the IcoDoclast Gold &
Copper Mining company to reorganize
the company on an assessment basis.
The company's property Is the famous
Iconoclast, near Kellar, on the south
half OF the Colville reservation.
Captain John Gray. the superintend-
ent OF the Crystal. near Davenport.
Wash, says that the miners who are
drifting on the 800 foot level have cut
n seven foot vein and are near the main
lead. Another crew Of men have been
put on and in 10 days Mr.. Gray expects
to be shipping ore. The output will
be hauled to Davenport and loaded on
cars.
A carload OF mineral specimens from
eastern Washington have been dis
patched to Buffalo. where they will be
displayed as a part Of the states min
eral exhibit at the Pan-American fair.
One Of the principal exhibits Is a man.

Many fine specimens Of gold, silver and
copper ores were also included. All
In all the collection Is the finest that
has ever left the state. 1t Is In charge
OF Superintendent G. l.. Knox.
The Providence, in the Cedar Canyon
district (Wash.). which had been shut
down for the past three months, is
working again. and Will begin shipping
as soon as the roads are in condition
for traffic. A crew OF 40 men will be
put on In about two weeks and the
property will be worked to it's full ca
pacity. The Elephant, in the same dis
trict. has 10 cars Of ore sacked and
ready to ship. The old Deer Trail.
which has been shut down for three
years. has been leased to Captain Bur
