A BIG COAL COMPANY.

Last week a company was organ
lied i'll this city, to be known as
the Smiths Fork Coal, ,sCoklng and
Mining Co., by several gentlemen
of this city and Pocatello. Such
men as G. G. Gray, Frank and Bert
Richards, Chas. Hale, of this city,
and Supt. Manson, Trainmaster
Duddleson, Lew W est and others Of
Pocatello, and Mr.. Miller of Colo
RADIO. The capital stock is placed
at 8 900, 900, shai es being 81 each.
The company have acquired a large
tract of coal land on Smiths Fork,
so miles from Cokeville. The coal
Is of coking quality and the veins
are large and we'll defined. The
company expect to install coking
ovens as soon as sufficient develop
ment work Is done, to permit Of
taking out the black diamonds. A
spur of track will be built from
Cokevllle or some point close by on
the Short Line for the benefit of the
camp. The company expect TO
have an immense industry started
within year, as the demand for
coke is large and constantly increas
ing.
The field is surely most promis-
ing one for capital to take hold Of,
and this new company starts out
under most favorable auspsces.

Mining Notes.
A BIG ASSAY.

Last week Attorney General Bag
ley took sample of ore from the
Duke claim, of the Montpelier
Copper Mining Co.'s group, TO
Boise and had it assayed. The re-
turns showed about one. fourth of
an ounce of gold, 5s ounces of sill
yer and over 40 per cent Of copper.
The sample was out OF one of the
rich streaks, that development work
had exposed on the claim. Other
assays made before have run as high
or higher than this one. There has
never been any question about rich
ores existing up in that belt, but
lack of means on the part of those
who are trying to develop the
claims, has hampered the uncover
ing of large bodies or even sinking
sufficient depth to obtain them.
However, the Montpelier Copper
Mining and Smelling Co., is rapid
ly getting into position to sink
their shaft, already down over 200
feet, to depth Of 500 or 1000 feet,
if necessary to tap the ore bodies.
They hope to begin work on an OK
tensive scale within few weeks. 1t
is intended to place fine hoist on
the ground, and otherwise prepare
for heavy work.

SOME RICH SPECIMENS

Some wonderfully rich specimens
of copper ore have been shown dur.
ing the last few days in Montpelier.
The rock carries large per cent of
native copper, the beads of pure
copper sticking ouL in many places
as large as pinheads. just where
the ore came from is not definitely
known, but the finders assert that
the lead is III Bear Lake county and
not very far from Montpelier. AS
soon as they finish making their To-
cations they will let the secret out,
when stampede is expected.
