ging the ore from its shaft devel'
opment and is making some high
grade ore.
North of the McAllister mill
the Wichita shaft No. l is show
ing very fine ore from its under
ground development.
Robert Mckay is pumping out
the Mckinley shaft, on the Bax-
ter Mining Co. land, and will
push the development as soon as
he can get into the ground.
Work on the new mill has been
commenced for the Big Chief,
Just southwest of the Mission
mine, pnd the contractors expect
to have the mill going by June l..
Mr.. Cook of the Myrtle mine

ager, informs us that the proper
ty will be put into operation at
once.
Mr.. Sheedy, of Evansville, Ind,
who is interested in the Lucille
mine, visited the camp diggings
this week and we understand the
company will erect modern mill
at once.
With the immense ore beds
which surround its lands, this
company has no fear but its land
contains the same beds and there
fore is preparing to handle large
volumes of the mineral.

and as the sinking is in soft
ground. J. C. Bryner says he ex.
poets to be into the ore at the 70
foot level in a few weeks.
The New Centrifugal Pump
! installed at the 81 mine is max.
ing a splendid record and is dem
onstrating a long felt want in
this district for a cheap pump
that would do the work at a min
imum cost.
Billy Earls, drilling on the
Little Four lease, just north of
its shaft, mad a strike of Is feet
of rich zinc and lead ore at 80
feet. This is the fourth drill
hole which shows the same bed
of ore on this property.
The Good Luck has been work
ing in shaft No. 2 the past week
and taking out more of the big
blocks of free zinc which this
property is noted for. Arrange
ments are being made to put the
property in shape to build a big
mill this summer.
The M. K. G. T. is at it again
and is getting back to its old
time gait of producing. Messrs.
Troup and John McRuer were
down looking over this property
this week and expressed them
selves as much pleased with the
present conditions which prevail
at this mine.
The Mckinley shaft on the
Baxter Mining Company land
starts up this week. Mr.. Robert
Mckay is in charge of this pro-
perty and informs us that the
development will be pushed as
fast as possible. This property
has face of ore "a feet in thick
ness, according to the drilling,
which assayed 6 per cent zinc
and 2 IL per cent lead, which is
certainly very rich.
The Hawkeye sold a big car of
zinc ore this week to the Edgar
Zinc Co. of Joplin and has a car
of lead ready for loading also.
This property is making fine
record for production since the
present company has taken it
over. Hank Rice, manager, as
sures us that he is setting a reel
ord which will lead the entire
camp for production as well as|
low cost of production.
The Duluth Lead & Zinc Co.,
made up of prominent men of
Duluth, Mimi, has taken a lease
on forty acres of rich mineral
land from the Baxter Mining Co., |
south of Quapaw station, and is |
making arrangements to thor
oughly drill its lease, and put in |
a large installation, so that it
may handle large volumes of ore,
in the manner that the big copper
mines and iron mines handle ores
in the country from which they
come.

The Gregory Trading Company.

were in the camp Monday of this
week and took over the Old Abe
mine for the new company which
has purchased the big property.
Ben T. Brooks of the ST will
have charge of the property for
the new company, and he is max
ing arrangements to put in a
large dam across Crawfish creek,
just north of the mill, in order to
procure sufficient water to supply
the mill, as the mine does not
produce enough. With the large
amount of development under
ground the mine will be able to
produce ample ore to run the mill
twenty hours per day from the
start. This property has been
idle for most year and we are
pleased to see it put into opera
ton again, and get back into the
producing list.
The Baxter Royalty Company
has had several inquiries from
parties in the Pennsylvania oil
fields, wanting to enter into con-
tracts with them to drill for oil
and gas, and wanting leasea on
its lands for this purpose. This
looks as if these parties believe
that oil and gas can be found in
this camp if it isgone after. The
above company Is now negotiat-
ing with the Pennsylvania parties
with excellent chances to secure
them in the near future. With
oil and gas found in this camp the
operation will be of such magni-
tude as to attract the attention of
the entire world. 1t will make
Baxter Springs the most import
ant town of the whole southwest.
It will enhance the value of the
lands and leases in the camp many
times over, while corner lots in
Baxter Springs would only be
reached at the top of a step-ladder.
The Miami Camp to the west
of us is attracting much attention,
and it certainly should do so, as
the present development justifies
a big rush of miners. The big
Emma Gordon mill has been test
ed and found to work splendidly.
The ore is so rich that conserva-
tive men would not dare to esti-
mate its richness, and well might
they be timid. as we understand
that on a test run of one hour and
a half last week, the mill made
ten tons of zinc and one ton of
lead ore. Many new leases are
being developed, and those that
are far enough advanced show the
same rich ore. Leases are selling
at high prices and royalties have
reached 80 per cent on many of the
properties. The Baxter Royalty
Company, which has 160 acres adj |
Joining the Emma Gordon lease,
has FIVE companies now develop
ing a part of its lands, and has
many more applications awaiting
investigation.
Eastman Land and Inv. Co. s
big three hundred ton mill is be-
Ing. readjusted 80 as to make 4
