TERROR CREEK MINES
Deal on Foot for Control Of the Rhode
Island Group

Mining operations along. Terrol
creek, one and half miles north O
Osburn, are more extensive and o.
greater importance than at any pre-.
vious time in the history Of the Ev.
olution district.
The management OF the Evolu.
ton mine, near the mouth of Ter
.Or creek, is exposing payable ore
in sinking its shaft below creek level,
which will be handled by the North
western Ore Purchasing company,
a corporation composed Of Messrs.
johnson, Mediation and other Butte
capitalists, who are now erecting
ore sampling works and custom con-
centrator a mile and half below
Wallace.
Manager Galbraith yesterday
started carpenters erecting board
ing house and blacksmith shop on
the property Of the Monte Cristo
company. Two shifts Of miners
are tunnel driving, with results
gratifying to the management.
Banker O'Neil is heavily interested
in the Monte Cristo.
The lower tunnel of Reliance has
been driven 172 feet, the face of the
tunnel glittering with lusty stringers
Of galena and quartz. Foreman Pat
Crowley expects to reach the ore
shoot exposed in the upper tunnel
by not later than September 18th.
Local parties secured an option on
$4,000 shares of stock yesterday for
Montana investors on a basis of 10
cents a share. The Reliance joins
the Monte Cristo on the west.
The Rhode Island, short dis
tance from the Reliance, is show
ing up handsome bodies of both
lead-silver and copper ores, which
will be purchased by the North
western Ore Purchasing company.
The principal stockholders of the
company are now entertaining a
proposal to accept within a specified
time 7112 cents per share for a major
ity Of the stock. This fact no doubt
accounts for the present scramble
for Rhode Island shares.
Banker Drumheller and the Days
are successfully developing the Ter
rer Creek Consolidated property,
adjacent to the Rhode Island.
The properties mentioned above
lie along and on either side of Ter
ror creek, and their rapid develop
ment is bringing that section of the
Coeur d'Alenes into mcrited prom
inence.
