died very suddenly last week at

L. L. Sweet underwent an OPP

Mr.. and Mrs. Drake and Mrs.

and Simpkins is wanted.
The mask ball held in Challis
last Thursday night, Feb. 22nd,
was well attended, but not as
large as in former years, owing,
perhaps, to scarlet fever and
chicken-pox that is infesting the
town. Many unique and beauti-
ful costumes were worn, but we
are informed that Mrs. Ida Jen-
sen had the best costume and
was the best sustained.
The first issue of the Mackay

A number of the small girls in

School and the church meet
ings were closed last week on
account of what is called scarlet
fever that has taken Challis foI
two weeks past and is still pre-
/ velent. Some call it scarlet few
er and some cases are evidently
nothing but chicken-pox. What
ever it is it has proven very
contagious. There has been nc
( quarantine established and very
3 little precaution has been useC
to prevent the spread of the dis

II OIh VI tilc dJ cue IlFCIs cA-
tending over to the head of Stan
ley Lake creek, south of Stanley
Basin, where the Alturas group
of claims are situated near the
summit of the Sawtooth range,
which forms the dividing line
between Boise and Custer coun-
ty at this point.
The central feature of the AL
turas group is the claim named
the Bunker Hill. 1t has large
quartz vein 5 to Is feet wide
that crops out almost continuous
ly for mile in length. 1t is
contained in the normal, erup-
tive granite of the region, and
accompanied with small igne-
Gus dixie of basaltic habit. It
has been prospected by more
than a dozen open cuts at short
intervals and one short tunnel.
The quartz is well mineralized
and shows a grayish yellow
stain characteristic of silver
chloride. 1t contains some
streaks and patches of honey
combed and cellular quartz and
punches of galena associated
with grey copper, also iron pyri-
tes and evidences of antimony
The vein is low grade on the av-
erage as it occurs at the surface,
but it is not unlikely that the
honeycombed or cellular quartz
will fill with massive mineral as
depth is attained in sinking on
the vein.
Some of the choicer galena
specimens when concentrated
down give assay results of go
per cent lead and several humid
red ounces in silver. 1t is hand
somely situated for deep adit
tunnel development work and is
likely to contain some pay shoots
of shipping mineral when ex
plored at depth
| WOMACKS DREDGE. At Stan
LEY Basin the Womacks dredge
was successfully operated during
the past season for several
months.
1t is rapidly approaching a
point on Stanley creek below
Buckley Bar where some high
values in coarse gold are known
to exist, and its bullion yield
should be very materially in
creased as the boat works its
way up the stream from its pres
I ent situation.
At the close of the hydraulic
!, season, on Joe's Gulch, short
distance east of the dredge, a
very important pay streak was
discovered last summer on the
old ground -sluice claim owned
by Smith, Murphy & Bowen.
: This new pay streak has been
thoroughly prospected since its
; discovery and found to contain
, values that seem to indicate a
yield of 500 to each sluice box
, length of II feet. Single pans
: of gravel were taken that yield
, ed so cents to S150 in coarse
{ gold to the pan, and the fortun-
ate owners seem to be in line for
a very handsome yield of pre-
: cious bullion next year.
CASINO CREEKS. On the op.
? posite side of the Salmon river
, from Joe's Gulch the Big and
, Little Casino Placers, better
I known as the Hershey diggings
