SENIOR BALL WAS
BRILLIANT AFFA| B

The Senior Ball given by the Glass
of 1905 of Oahu College at Pauahi Hall
last evening was a notable affair. 1t
took the form of a masquerade in which
the most striking and original costumes
were mingled. About three hundred
couples, mostly of the younger set,
danced uQtil the small hours of the
free from care now that the
school year is over. The hall was
beautifully decorated for the occasion
and the glittering lights shining on the
vari-colored costumes of the dancers
made a striking picture. The Wanna
puma Club, an organization of Punahou
boys, furnished music for the dance.
Light refreshments were served. This
was the closing function OF commence
ment week, and now the school year Of
19o4-5 is a thing of the past.

CURTIS COMPANY
PLEASES AUDIENCE

There was a fair audience at the
Orpheum last night to see the NJ. B.
Curtis Novelty Company but it was
not nearly as large an audience as
the performance merited. This is real
ly good show. Major Edward A.
Newell did good Juggling and capped
the climax with some startling per-
formances with a revolver. Ernest l..
Barbour kept his audience in a roar.
The Princess Chinquilla's singing and
dancing were marvellous. Miss Chalis
sang several illustrated songs in a
charming manner. Reno, the wonder
full, startled all with his marvellous
tricks. The bioscope closed an ex-
cellent program. An equally interest
ing program will be given tonight.

THE MIN ERAL
BELTS OF IDAHO.

In my recent prospecting eXpedl
ton in central Idaho, l represented
my properties at the head waters OF
Warm Spring creek in Custer coun.
ty. In my tests of these properties
on the surface, obtained results as
per assays. Copper King prospect in
which myself and Blackfoot parties
are interested, gives sensational re-
turns on its ores at surface as fol
lows:
The ore of this prospect is gold
bearing gray copper with lead silver. 1t
is contact between schist and quartz
tie and will make good shipping pros
pect in the hear future if it don't
make failure.
In virgin territory of Loon creek
and Salmon river mineral belt l gave
most of my attention to large bodies
of low grade ores that ore situated
in the mountain mass of the Wood
river and Salmon river. In tracing
this belt through l observed some o.
the largest quartz lodges that ever
came under my observations. There
is one ledge that crops out of the
! granite lOi f,oUU lSSl duu 10 a CHluCoC
wall In. structure. 1t Is located in an
isolated place in the heart of the
East Fork mountains This ledge
pans free gold at the ratio of 70 per
cent free and 80 per cent concen-
trates. Numerous tests by paintings
and assays shows it to carry $500 per
ton in gold ] also saw many other
lodges of greater proportions but did
not make any determinations on them.
Idaho as mining state, has a
bright future. Most of the failures of
Idaho are from want of enterprise
and ignorance of met ,llurgical re-
lquirements In the early days OF
mining in Idaho and other states, ev-
cry mining district saw mills and
smelters built on all sorts of mines
In the majority of cases smelters and
not mills were what was wanted. The
mountains of Idaho and other states
were filled with these monuments of
mistaken enterprise and ignorance OF
metallurgical requirements.
This was twenty or thirty years
ago, but today there is disposition
on the part Of those ignorant of the
COHuiIlOuS SSSeuIldl W SuCCSSS III
smelling operations to build smelters
in place of mills where it would be
impossible to successfully operate a
shelter on the material available.
A smelter requires not only album
dance of ores but also large amounts
Of iron and limestone for fux. I'm
fortunately the flux is generally de-
void Of other values than those of a |
chemical nature which makes it |
suitable as flux. 1t is serious mis- |
take to equip mine with reduction
plants before the mine is prepared
to supply sufficient amount of ore to
keep the plant in operation but it is
q much more serious mistake in this
day to build a smelter when a mill is
required or vice versa. Worse still
is to put reduction plant of any kind
where none is needed at all. Still
these things are being done constant
ly Each year sees chronicled the
usual number of failures where a
competent management might have Il
made a success.
