Baker, of stevensville, Kent Island, for
several years presiding elder of the Dover
district of the Methodist Episcopal Church
succeeded in having his 1s-year-old daugh-
ter, Miss Bessie ID. Baker arrested and
detained here in an effort to prevent her
marriage to E. w. Blizzard a well-known
young man of Stevensville.
The pair have been engaged for some
time, but Mr.. Baker objected to their mar
riage, as the young man is not yet p. Biz
zarns father turned him out two years
ago, and since then he has been his own
master, At any rate he undertook to show
his independence Sunday afternoon, when
he took Miss Baker from her fathers
home for a drive.
Almost Immediately after the young
pair left the Baker home the father be.

riage, and with his son. who secured a
saddle horse, started in pursuit. Mr.. Baker
telephoned to Queenstown for the arrest
Of the pair, and at that place the chief

The proposition to submit the question of
local option to the people at a special election en-
failing expense to the taxpayers of $4,000 is
outrageous. There is no reason why a special
election should be held It would be better in
every way to submit the question at the next
general election. Then decisive vote will be
cast and the State saved the 100000 a special
election will cost. There is a suspicion that the
whiskey interests are behind the special election
scheme. VIII the Legislature permit the liquor
element to subject the State to an unnecessary
expense of 10000 in order to have a light vote
and perhaps defeat local option? Think the
good that amount of money would do one of our

For several weeks a number Of important bills

Revised Statutes, of which Representative

which affect the railroads and other corporations
should have been acted upon long ago and re-

House. II is said the corporation influence at
Dover is responsible for the worse than inaction
of that committee. That is a serious charge, and
one that can be refuted only by Chairman Rich
ardson and his committee, showing some evi-
dence of not holding bills in the committee for
the purpose of killing them. If the bills are not
reported within a reasonable time they should be
called out by resolution.

Driving for Ore Shoot That Is Not
Far on.

Driving for Ore Shoot That Is No,
Far on.
There Is something doing in the
Humming Bird. BY this we do not
mean to insinuate that a strike has
vet been made. On the contrary, we
believe the strike has yet to be made
in the lower tunnel, but we think 1t
Is imminent. Our information is
that drift Is now being made to an
ore shoot proved in the next level
and that the ore shoot Is not now
far of.
As In the case Of the other mines
controlled by Harry L. Day it is, es-
pecially during his absence, hard to
get any reliable information about
developments in the Humming Bird.
Those who are in authority and who
consequently know what is transpir-
ing, will not talk.
The Humming Bird owns a large
group extending back from the rail-
road at Burke clear over to the Tam
arack & Chesapeake on Nine Mile. 1t
adjoins the Tiger-Poorman group on
the north and east.

Promising Surface Showing-Shaft
in 8 Per Cent Ore.
Adjoining the Hercules on the
south Is the group Of five patented
claims owned by the Basin Mining
company. 1t has wonderful sur
face showing and Is developed by
two short tunnels and two small
shafts. One of these shafts Is now
down 40 feet and the whole bottom
is In 5 per cent lead ore. The sur
face indications are that the ledge is
from 80 to 40 feet wide and the
groupings are not only highly miner
allied but carry an unusually large
amount of galena and carbonate ore
AS soon as the weather will permit
work will be resumed on the shaft
referred to above and owing to the
excellent location of the property, Its
promising surface showing and the
Improvement in the grade of the ore
obtained with only a small amount
Of sinking, 1t is regarded as one of
the most likely properties in the
district.

Wardner and Pine Creek
sTRlKE on THE SIDNEY.

Ground Sluicing Exposes Two Feet
of Fine Galena.
An unusual strike has been made
on the Sidney group of nine claims
which lies about midway between
the Nabob and Highland Chief mines
on Pine creek. In ground sluicing
with the waters of Mustang gulch,
close to their west end line. they
have exposed % inches Of 30 per
cent lead ore, showing almost no
zinc. They also fully exposed the
ledge at one of the finest tunnel sites
on the whole of Pine creek. The
ledge was Is feet wide.
The property consists of nine
claims and is owned by L. w. and e.
8. Gay and H. M. Ross, all Of KEEL
logg. They have been doing more
or less prospecting and development
work for years and have already a
tunnel 220 feet long run on the vein
from point near the new discovery
which shows lots of mixed lead, zinc
and iron ore in punches and is run
too high to open up the newly found
ore shoot. Work on the group will
be pushed with all expedition from
now on. The group covers 1000 feet
OF the Nabob vein.

Last week the Miner announced

STRIKE IN M|SSOULA
Eighteen Inches of Copper in

BULLION HAS fine SHOWING
Engineers Robbins 4 Moore Are Much
Pleased with 1.-THE Iron
Crown Strike

The Missoula company at Mullan
has made an important strike that IL
being kept quiet. In prosecuting
their ledge, which already shows a
width Of over 20 feet without having
yet reached the footwall, they cut Is
inches OF good grade carbonate OF
copper ore of the same character as
that heretofore found in the other
mines on the Snowstorm ore zone.
The Missoula company's property
consists of a compact group Of some
10 claims adjoining the Independent
on the north. The Eclipse company's
property adjoins 1t on the east and 1t
touches the Copper King and Lucky
Calumet as well. so it is In a mighty
good neighborhood.
The crosscut tunnel on this prop
erty was run in 1920 feet when 1t
cut what was supposed to be the
ledge. A drift was then run east on
stringer OF ore but this gradually
petered out. The crosscut was then
resumed when 1t was quickly discov-
cred that what they had previously
taken for the footwall of the vein
really formed the hanging wall. 1t
has now progressed 20 feet into the
vein and no footwall is yet In sight.
The whole 20 feet Is well mineralized
and shows paystreak IS inches
wide Of good grade carbonate of
copper ore.

none is really expected for another
100 feet. The tunnel is now in 365
feet and at depth OF 200. 1t is just
about under the portal of the upper
tunnel which is 500 feet long and
shows fine body of quartz and car
Donate ore carrying little galena
for the last 400 feet. When the
lower tunnel is 100 feet further
ahead 1t should strike the beginning

2O5 feet and Is progressing rapidly
since the installation of a Temple

power Is obtained from the Wash

ton at the Hunter mill. Ventilating
pipe and a blower, actuated by an
electric motor, have also been in
stalled and the tunnel is being wired

An Interesting incident and one
which throws a good deal OF light on
the opinion Of practical miners re-
specting the property. happened this
week. Ed Roden applied for con-
tract to drive the tunnel for $3.50
a foot and take part Of his pay in
stock. When his offer was declined
ne stated that he had sampled both
the shaft and the drift in the upper
tunnel and had got returns of 100
ounces of silver per ton from his
from the shaft and of go
ounces from the ore he took from
the drift.

was tapped by the crosscut tunnel
when in 450 feet and has since been
drifted on for 1856 feet. The full
face of the drift. 5h feet wide, is
