Description Of Mine

Description Of Mine
The Snow Storm copper mine
carries an ore shoot of equal magni-
tude and proft-producing capacity
with some of the lead ore deposits
OF this field. 1t is directly on the
strike Of the great Canyon creek
lead-bearing assures and ore shoots
and only four miles in an air line
to the southeast OF them. This
property has a very interesting his
tory. The occurrence of promising
copper prospects has been known
in the Mullan section for years, but
very little faith was developed in
them until the successful mining
and marketing of the Snow Storm
ore were demonstrated by leasers.
How Ore Shoot Improved
The Snow Storm ore chute made
a very insignificant short chimney
outcrop of green stained country
rock at the surface, and had moth
ing much to recommend it but one
well defined fissure wall. In fact
the ore shoot was very short to a
depth Of 200 feet, at which it was
tapped by short crosscut tunnel.
A second crosscut tunnel tapped
the vein at 500 feet deep, at which
considerable depth the ore contin-
ued completely altered-green car
Donate OF copper saturating a quart
zose gangue, and the ore body had
expanded from less than 200 feet
in length at the No. / tunnel level,
to 800 feet in length at the No. 2
tunnel level, by a width of from 5
to 40 feet. The footwall is very
pronounced and the deposit evi-
IDENTITY a fault fissure of the same
type as the Hercules and the Ward
ner lode.
A Footwall Fissure
This fissure cuts the thin bedded
quartzite at quartering angle and
the ore gradually fades out in the
hanging wall country with no
clearly defined limits, but it has
been successfully mined as much as
40 feet wide and produced shipping
ore for that width, containing 100
pounds Of copper and 6 or 7 ounces
Of silver per ton. The dip of the
vein is about 60 degrees and with
the slope of the mountain, and it
has been tapped with another cross
cut tunnel LOO feet long at a
depth Of 200 feet, from which ex-
tensive levels have been run and a
raise put through to the No. 2 tun-
mel level, with four intermediate
drifts.
Crude ore Nets $40 Ton
In the first intermediate level be-
low the No. 2 tunnel level, the ore
shoot is over 600 feet long and
maintains it's great width. 1t has
been mined during the year with
square sets for width Of 25 feet
and the ore has been shipped to the
smelters principally from this hori.

months without sorting, at the rate
OF over 200 tons a day, and yielded
a profit over shipping and smelling
charges Of about $40 per ton. 1t is

quence is handled at a very low
treatment charge.
First Worked by Leasers
This mine commenced shipping
in 1904 under a lease to j. H. Hew-
ard Il Co., which was financed by
the Greenough Bros. of Mullan, &
who have since sold the lease to tho
Snow Storm Mining company, and
acquired control and management
OF the whole enterprise. The Snow
Storm Mining company is now cap
italized at 1900, 600 shares at
par value Of 81 a share. Mr.. T. l..
Greenough Of Mullan is president
and Mr.. w. D. Greenough is gem
eral manager.
Fortunes in the Stock
During 1908 the stock Of this
company was changing hands at
around B cents a share, but has
since seen a meteoric rise and has
made score of people rich. It
sold during the past year as high as
$3.50 per share, and now has a
market value Of around 50 at which
price it seems a fine speculative in
vestment with such an ore showing
and such eminent prospects of new
and richer ore development at fur
ther depth in the fissure.
Production and ReserAes
Since the leasing operations COM
menced in this mine in 1904, the
copper contents Of the ore it has
shipped has amounted to about A.
100000 pounds, together with
something like 100000 ounces Of
silver, and has resulted in several
hundred thousand dollars net profit.
The mine now has million tons OF
developed pay ore in sight, and
while all OF this great reserve is not
OF the $40 net grade, good deal Of
it is, and some of it much higher
grade.
Changes in Ore Occur
At the first intermediate level be-
low the No. 2 tunnel, the green
carbonate ore rapidly changes to %
clean dissemination of fine grained
bornite and chalcocite with string
ers OF pure mineral. An interesting
feature of the development at the
No. 3 tunnel level is a transition
at and for a short distance above
that level of the sulphide minerals
back to carbonate ore again. This
condition is accounted for by pro-
nounced water course that flowed
an enormous volume when the vein
was encountered at this horizon,
and seems to have locally altered
and partly dissolved the values.
When the vein was tapped at this
level the crosscut was carried
through 100 feet Of disseminated
copper carbonate ore, containing
about twenty pounds Of copper per
ton, together with streaks Of much
better ore, and it is evident that
this is only temporary interrup-
ton of the sulphide condition found
higher in the vein, as other recent
narrow water courses, but dry, have
been found in working the main
carbonate ore body above the No. 2
tunnel, which seem to have washed
out the mineral completely for q
width Of a foot or two on either side
Of the crack.

Simpson, prom inent dentise here. for the murder of his father-in-law, Bartley Horner, a wealthy contractor of Northport, who was shot to death by Simpson at his home Dec. 27, 1905. Franklin Reeves, a talesman, suddenly expired of heart disease.
 It is said that the prosecution will call the defendants wife and his moth. er-in-law to testify as to bad blood that is alleged to have existed between the dentist and Horner prior to the shoot ing. Simpson has mainta ned from the day he was arrested over a year ago that, although he held the gun from which the fatal shots were fired. the shooting of his father-in-law was acci- dental.
 While the prisoner was In the cold, damp lookup of Northport awaiting ex- animation by Justice of the Peace Charles B.

Mrs. Simpson sent a note to him containing the following curt and significant words. it was al legged:

NINE JURORS IN BOX.
Two More Men Chosen Eo Try
 H. K. Thaw For Murder.
FAMILY SHOWS l UNITED FRONT.
Witness For state In Court In Person of Jack Barrymore, an Actor and Former Friend of Thaw's-sult
 Against Prisoner by Expert.


 Former Friend of Thaw's-suit
 Against Prisoner by Expert.
 NEW YORK, Jan. 20. The jury which is to try Harry K. Thaw for the killing of Stanford White is rapidly nearing completion, as nine men are now in the jury box. It Is expected that the taking of testimony may open tomorrow afternoon.
 One hundred and sixty-five talesmen have been examined, and orders have been given for the summoning of an additional 100 hundred men who are to report before Justice Fitzgerald this morning. This will make total of 300 men thus far summoned.
 The two men who proved acceptable to the state and to Thaw and his coun- sel were Charles D. Newton, retired railroad official, who is perhaps sixty five years of age. and Louis Haas, the New York representative of Phila- delphia wholesale candy concern, who is not more than thirty years of age. DUH MI. JCtOlHc anu MI. AAdh u iuSC, the leading lawyer for the defendant, were congratulated upon securing two such capable jurors as Messrs. New ton and Haas appeared to be.
 District Attorney Jerome continues to base his examinations of the tales men upon the belief that Thaw's law yers may offer two defenses, one of emotional insanity at the time of the shooting and the other the "unwritten law.''
 All of the defendants family were in court. Mrs. Harry Thaw and her companion, Miss May Mckenzie, were the first to arrive. Then came Mrs. William Thaw, mother of the prisoner, accompanied by her two daughters, the Countess of Yarmouth and Mrs. George L. Carnegie. Edward and Josiah Thaw and MT. Carnegie also were present. The family sat closely grouped in two rows of chairs just back of the prison CT. As usual, they seldom spoke to each other. Mrs. William Thaw had gracious bow and smile for the pris- oner's wife when they first met, and the latter was quick to return the greeting. Thaw seemed delighted when he saw all of his family in court and appeared to be in high spirits throughout the session.
 The morning session of the court was cut short by an hour because of break in the heating apparatus in the criminal courts building. The court room was very cold. and the women of the Thaw party kept on their heavy wraps and furs.
 Jack Barrymore, an actor, was in court. He will be witness for the prosecution, and through him District Attorney Jerome will try to prove not only that Stanford White did not have any relations with Evelyn Nesbit for some time prior to her marriage to Thaw, but that White had cast her of.
 Suit has been begun by Dr. Charles L. Dana, one of the alienists called into the Thaw case when the defense was in the hands of w. M K. Olcott, against Harry Thaw and his mother for $1,O00 for professional services, which, he says, he has been unable to collect.
 His lawyer says the services consist ed of consultation as an expert for the defense and an examination of Thaw In the Tombs. Thaw's lawyers contest the claim.
