Shooting the Whale.

The Norwegian whale fisheries ex-
tend over nearly the whole Of the Arc
tic sea, from the north Of Norway to-
ward SpitZbergen and even to the Shet-
land islands. The whales are shot
from small steamers, the implement
used being the so called bomb harpoOn.
an arrow shaped iron spear furnished
with a line, which is discharged from
u small cannon. The whale often
drags the vessel a long distance until
it becomes exhausted and expires 1t
is then lowed to the anchorage, where
it is stripped of the blubber. This
whale fishery was begun by well
known Norwegian. Srend Foyn, in
1868. At first only the blubber was
utilized for train oil; now the bones
are crushed for manure, and the flesh
is used for fodder.

Shinuiino a House.

And l looked and beheld seven car
penters shingling house. They were
hauling up bundles of shingles that
had been lying in the rain for two
days and mailing them on one by one.
In few days the shingling will be
done. Then the painter will come
along with his ladders and brushes
and stains, and $500 will he spent by
the owner of the cottage to have it
thoroughly dabbed. And i'll a little
while the sun will shine. and all the
shingles will buckle. some up. some
down, until the cottage will resemble
a frizZled chicken. And there viii be
leaks and cursings and lamentations.
Now, brethren, why not he sensible III
these small matters? Painters are not
needed at all in case of this kind.
Keep your shingles dry; buy few
barrels of stain; soak the shingles i'll
the stain and throw them on the grass
to dry; then nail them to the clap
boards. They will never buckle, they
will never leak. and you have saved

Forest Air.

There is a general impression that
the humidity of the air is greater in
the woods than in the open fields.
This is contradicted. however. by the
result of observations made in Ger
many. It was found there that the
humidity. both relative and absolute.
was slightly greater in the open than
in the woods, and this was true equal
ly III the morning and in the after
noon. AS to the temperature Of tie
air among the trees. it was trifle
higher than in the open in the morn
ing and in a more marked degree IN

HIGH GRADE COPPER ORE
Dick Daxon Takes Hold Of Old

Mr.. Daxon constituting the first

The property is known as the

miles by wagon road from Houston
on the Missoula- Wallace branch OF
the Northern Pacific. 1t is located
in the big, flat, heavily timbered
valley Of Nine Mile creek and has
been idle for the past 20 years. 1t
was prospected by number of
small shafts, all of which show
good orc and one of which was sunk
to a depth of 65 feet with short
drift at the bottom. These work.
ings show a fve-foot ledge filled
with copper oxides, carbonates and
a little sulphide ore. Much Of the
ore runs as high as 40 per cent in
copper. One shipment Of 10 tons
was made when the above des-
cribed work was done.

accompanied ore bodies in the

in expectation of striking ore in
this crosscut or in a drift from it at
any time.

MINING NOTES

The Monte Carlo company, own
ing a group Of claims on Placer
creek, has started a crosscut tunnel
that will reach the ledge when in
about 100 feet.
The Arctic company, whose
property adjoins the Vienna-Inter-
national on the east, is working
two miners and will keep at least
one shift at work all winter.
The full faceof the tunnel on the
Cedar Greek company's property is
reported to be in concentrating
galena ore. The tunnel is 1900
feet long and at a depth Of about
700 feet.
The Full Moon company, owning
a group of seven claims adjoining
the Occur d'Alene Champion near
Burke, has opened a 16-foot ledge
which gives good assays at a depth
OF only seven feet. A crosscut
tunnel has been started to cut the
vein at depth.
The contract for 1OO-foot up-
raise from the main tunnel Of the
Nine Mile company's group has
been let to Brooks & Armstrong.
AS the mine has not heretofore
been equipped with a suitable
boarding and bunkhouse the direc-
tors have authorized the immediate
OF one.
The tunnel on the Gray copper is
now in 80 feet. Since the ledge
was encountered it has widened to
the full width Of the workings, is
all copper stained and carries a
streak of high grade copper ore
that is steadily improving as the
drift advances. 1t will require 200
feet OF work to bring the drift
