MINING ACTIVITY AT CUSTER.
Work Being Pushed at the
North Star Mine.

The North Star Mining company
has the frame work up for the new
nstamp mill that has been order
ed. 1t is expected that the new mill
will be ready for work some time in
April. 1t will be built With space
for twenty stamps should the com-
pany decide to put them in. Ex-
periments are being conducted on
the ore for the purpose Of arriving
at satisfactory process by which
the refractory values may be.saved.
The ore will average close to 500 a
ton, of which only 81 Or SIS a ton can
be saved by the free milling process.
1t is believed that the ore will con-
centraue successfully. and the COM
pany desires to determine upon
chemical process, possible cyanide,
by which the tailings can be treated
at home. The North Star company
is composed of Omaha and Council
Bluffs individuals, and is the owner
of 100 acres of ground nine miles
from Custer. The ore is found in
large fissure vein and has been open
ed to a depth of 900 feet.
The shaft on the Standard group
of claims at Rockford is down 105
feet, and shows a strong ledge of
free milling and concentrating ore
that will will assay from 81 to IS a
ton. Drifts have been started with
the ledge from the bottom of the
shaft, one to the north and the other
to the south. In the north drift the
ore is known to be fifteen feet wide,
and the ore gives good string of
colors by pan and mortar tests.
The ground belongs to Mueller, Oberg
g. o g rady of Deadwood.
Messrs. Anderson and Hogan,
owners of the Scandinavian group
of claims north of Custer Peak, are
down sixty feet on a ledge OF free
milling ore, and a recent cross-cut
shows it to be between twelve and
fifteen feet thick. Next to the
Scandinavian, George Powell and
associates are developing the Stem
winder property. They have run a
number of tunnels, shallow shafts
and open cut, and have exposed a
good vein of free milling and con-
centrating ore showing values from
Sc to SIG ton.
The Bear Gulch Mining company
is preparing to begin shaft on its
property, in the extreme western
portion of the county. The company
has been driving tunnel on a ledge
of gold and tin bearing ore for seve'
raj months, and it has been followed
several hundred feet into the hill
It is a vertical, coming up through
the slate, and has good CONNER
cial value. The tunnel is near the
top of the hill and only a, short dis
stance between the apex, hence the
decision to sink.

ANOTHER DISAGREEMENT.
Jury in> the Famous Calkins
Horse Case Again Disagrees.


The now celebrated case of Israel
Calkins VS.. the Bank of Custer was
on trial at Hot Springs before Judge
MCGEE last week. This was the
third trial of the case and resulted in
a ahung jury. At two previous
trials the jury disagreed once and
decided in favor of Calkins.
The bone of conten tion is a bunch
OF something like 300 head of horses
which belonged originally to Calkins
and whose wife sold them during his
unjust confinement in the insane
asylum. they we're bought by a
man named Perkins, who mortgag-
ed them to the bank. Calkins
claimed that Perkins induced his
wife to sell under false represents Ia
tion for nominal sum; that she had
no right to do it, and that the bank
had come into possession unlawfully.
Although Calkins was confined in the
asylum there is much doubt as to
his ever being insane. He claims
it was done by coun y attorney Of
of this county because of a prank
Calkins played on him and which
made him very indignant.
