Timothy, of Quincy, ILL.,, and il
is due to his energy. that the new
mill has been builded so soon.
He also discovered the under
ground water seepage that was
costing hundreds of dollars to
pump from their air shaft. The
building of a surface dam, and
the filing in of the creek has al
ready lowered the water 10 feet,
and from a float kept in the shaft,
| it is noted that the water is be.
ing lowered at rate. Of an inch
u day, not only in the Common
Law, but in the Micawber.
The Good Luck mine, owned
by Ossawatomie and Paola men,
has one of the best strikes yet
made in this camp. In sinking a
second shaft for air, zinc was
struck at the S3-foot level, and at
the 95-foot level they are drift
ing in ore on a 12-foot face, tax.
ing out pieces weighing over 600
pounds. Much of the ore is free,
needing no milling in preparing
for market. This property has
always been under the manage
ment of d. d. Gill, whose compa'
ny realizes that it takes grit and
staying qualities to make mine.
Messrs J. I. Huber and NJ. E.
Thorp of Paola spent one day
at this property last week, and
are elated over the find. Nearly
every operator in the camp has
visited this shaft, and all pro-
nounce it unequaled by any.
The development of the ground
near Miami extends the known
territory of the district many
miles to the west.
The Lancaster mill is assuming
proportions, and will soon be
numbered among the producers
of the camp. For months this
company has debated the advisa-
bility of building "a mill, and
each time the underground de-
velopment has been taken as
guide, and now that they have
nearly five hundred feet of drift
ing as we'll as many thousands
of tons of ore on the dump, it
seems wise to prepare this for the
market on their own mill.

The WIUES.

The New State mine started
its l00-ton mill last Wednesday,
This is the first mill in the Mi.
ami camp.
The Tom Lawson mine lying
within 60 feet of the New State
mine opened up some wonderfully
fine zinc last week.
The Old Chief mine, ON Baxter
Royalty land, has the frame work
for its new mill nearly done, but
as yet 10 machinery has been
placed. This is the oldest mine
in this camp, its underground de-
velopment showing up fine body
of ore.
The Virginia Lead & Zinc Co.,
has purchased a second hand mill
from the Porto Rico camp, which
they will proceed to move at
once. This mill will have one of
the new jigs patented by Mr..
Faust. Mr.. Gridley is one of the
owners of these patents.
A new strike was made Satur-
day in what is known as the Big
Chief mine, located on the land
of the Anchor Lead and Zinc Co.
incorporated, which lies south
and west of the Mission. This
company is composed of M. Peak
and Oils Brothers of Springfield,
Mo. The Big Chief is owned by
ten Springfield capitalists, one of
whom, A. ]. Daugherty, spent
the day at the mines Saturday,
being at the shaft when the shot
was fired that uncovered the ore,
which looks exceedingly good.
This company has M. Peak as
manager of the ground develop
ment, which insures good and
economical work.
The Common Law mill is near
ing completion, as the buildings
are completed, and the machin-
cry is now at the Baxter station
ready to be unloaded. This prop
erty has been under the efficient
management from start of Thos.

n Z. MEAps DEAD.

Il
Theodore E. Meads died, very
suddenly at his home on Vine
street last Friday night at HAS
o'clock. Mr.. Meads had been i'll
a long time and his death was
not in the nature of surprise.
He had been afflicted with an en-
larged liver, and this had injured
his heart. Although he had been
up and around, yet it was seen
that he was failing, and the end
came as above stated. Mr.. Meads
arose from his bed a few moments
before he died and walked out on
the front porch. He stood there
minute, perhaps, and then
turned around and went back in
to the house. Arriving at the
side of his bed, he fell over. His
wife ran to him, but he gasped
only once or twice. The neigh
bors were alarmed, and rendered
assistance, but it was in vain, life
was extinct.
Mr.. Meads was born in Indiana,
Oct. II, 1S49, and for the past
quarter of a century had been a
resident of this city and vicinity.
He used to be very prominently
identified with the live stock
business, and for long time was
the most prominent hog and cat
tie buyer in this section. He has
served the people of Baxter
Springs as member of the city
council. and stood we'll with the
community. He was a kind hus-
band, and his wife is Frustrated
by his death.
Besides his wife, Mr.. Meads
leaves three brothers to mourn
his death. They are Henry
Meads of Lyon township, VIM.
Mcads of the Indian Territory
and Charles Meads OF Canada.
Funeral services were held on
Monday of this week, conducted
by Rev. John E. Largent of the
Methodist church, after which
the remains were inferred in the
family lot in the Baxter Springs
cemetery.
Mr.. Meads died possessed of
considerable property. He was a
member of the Modern Woodmen
of America and also the knights
and Ladies of Security, carrying
insurance in each. He was also
a member of the Galena Lodge
of Elks, which had charge of the
funeral.
