TO SHOW A MISSOURIAN.

A letter from James Shaw of Brecken-
ridge, Buchanan county, Missouri, re-
newing his subscription for Nugget,
says they have been having fine win
ter there, with livestock doing nicely.
Mr. Shaw, for a good MANY years
dwelIer on War Eagle Mountain where
he made considerable money, removed
to Northwest Missouri several years ago
and invested in place he calls the Lo-
Gust Grove stock farm, where he enjoys
the conveniences of rural delivery, tele-
phones, fine roads in wealthy section
of what the writer happens to know to
be one of the finest agricultural conn
ties in the entire middle West. He
says that lands have rapidly advanced
in value there, and are worth fully
double what they we're when he first
went there. While we are pleased to
know that our old friend is doing we'll,
the thought occurs to us, that could Mr..
Shaw note the changes which have been
going on almost in sight Of his old home
on War Eagle, he would almost regret
having left Idaho. Next summer he
would be able to look down and see the
CLINT of water in a canal leading from
Sinker creek out to the Hoffer & Miller
plains, and that fertile section being
converted into beautiful ranches, with
start made on a great reservoir on the
Frenchman's ranch on Sinker. He
would behold what to him in years
gone by seemed to be only an arid sage
brush desert, being converted into
farms which for productiveness win sc
far surpass even his own Buchanan
county ranch as to be beyond compari
son. Moreover, he would be able to se'
in the distance, across the river in Can
yon county, the waters of 5000 scr'
artificial lake, storing water to max,
glad big stretch Of lands in Snak
river valley, under the great Boise

ALMOST BOUNDLESs.

So great is the influence of sweet
minded woman on those around her
that it is almost boundless. 1t is to her
that we all go in seasons of sorrow and
sickness for help and comfort; one
soothing touch of her kindly hand
works wonders upon the feverish child; /;
a few words dropped from her lips in
the ear Of a sorrow-stricken sister do
much to raise the load of grief that is
bowing its victim down to the dust in
anguish. The husband comes home
worn out with the pressure of business
and feeling irritable with the world in
general, but when he enters the cozy
sitting room and sees the blaze of fire,
and meets his wife's smiling face, he
succumbs in a moment to the soothing
influences which act as the balm of
Gilead to his wounded spirits that are
wearied by the stern realities of life.
The rough school-boy flies into a rage
from the taunts of his companions to
fud solace in his mothers smile; the
little one full of grief with its large
troubles finds haven of rest on les
mothers breast and so one might &C
on with instance after instance of the
influence that a sweet-minded woman
has in the social life with which she i:
connected Beauty is an insignificant
power when compared with hers.

POTOSI.

The shaft on tile Potosi has been
started to be sunk another hundred
feet from the third level Until this
work proceeds far enough TO be out of
the way OF the miners, no further work
will be done on driving the third level
farther north. This drift as far as driv-
en-, is showing a run of ore quite equal
in character and value to that shown
in the upper drifts.

METALLIC M. @ M. COMPANY

The electric proven was turned onto
the air compressor in the tunnel at the
Metallic company's mine yesterday and
tile power drills will probably be set at
work today driving the50O foot cross cut
to connect with the ledge at 600 feet
depth below the former old drift on
this mine. If the ledge retains its
width and value at this greater depth,
it will prove great mine. In fact it
is known to be rich, and milled good
pay ore when worked by the father of
the present manager, when he was only
small kid. But it was opened and
worked from such an inaccessible place,
and the old gentlemen who owned it
were so conservative and independent,
that they let it remain until their boys
grew up to work it.

THE BANNER

new idea struck one of the Banner
men this week, which may be worth
while carrying out. The present open
ing of the mine is about 1900 feet dis
tant from the mill and at least $50 feet
higher than the top.
1t is proposed to deliver he ore at
the mill by tramway running along
the side OF the mountain ard then let il
down to the ore bins at the top of the
mill by gravity. But. as soon as the
mill is ready to begin running a new
cross-cut tunnel viii be started at the
top of the mill level to cut the lede
farther south and about $50 feet deep
er than the present opening. This
cross cut will cut under tile line of the
tramway, and before reaching the Ban
ner vein, it is believed it will cut anoth-
er vein of ore east of the Banner. Mr..
Nelson, to whom the idea is due, has
suggested that at the point where the
new cross.cut is under the line of the
tramway, an upraise be made connect
ing the cross-cut and the tramway, and
that the ore coming over the tramway
be dropped through this and delivered
to the bins at the mill over the track
in the new cross cut tunnel. This will
do away with the necessity of building
the gravity train, and provide storage
for large amount of ore, as the entire
upraise when properly timbered will
constitute very large ore bin. The
suggestion will doubtless be carried
out.
Good progress is being made on the
Banner mill construction considering
the limited number of men employed

The mill is taking on the look of bein
completed, and if the good weathe
holds out, will be ready to start befor
the tramway can be completed to de
liver ore from the mine.

John Condron Buys Half Interest
in the Cullen Hotel.

The Salt Lake Tribune says that last
Saturday Benjamin b. Hewyood, pro-
prietor of the Cullen, sold a hslf inter-
est in that hotel to John Condron Of
Spokane, for about $50 900.
Mr. Condron has purchased lot at
Popperton, fashionable suburb of
Salt Lake, where be will live with his
family.
John Condron lived in HALEY 10 or
IL years, but moved away owing to the
panic of '93. He revisited HALEY last
summer on business connected with the
Croesus mines, and everybody here was
as glad to see him as though he had
ris, from the dead.
Now that he owns i'll the Cullen,
Wood River, Coeur d'Alene, or other
Idahoan will hardly think of stopping
at any other hotel when in Salt Lake.
