from the 2200-foot level at once. No
more ore will be shipped at present
than is necessary for the develop
ment work. but stoping on a large
scale will be commenced in about
two months.
1t Is reported that the ore shoot
recently found contains from six to
eight feet Of good shipping ore, be-
sides a large quantity Of concentrat-
Ing ore. The ore shoot had faulted
and 1t was supposed by many when
the mine closed last summer for all
but development purposes. that 1t
was worked out.
About 20 to rs men were kept to
further develop the mine and their
efforts we're at last successful In To-
eating the lost ore body. This is the
lowest depth in the Occur d'Alene
district where lead-silver ore has
been found and successfully mined
and It points to the fact that the
Occur d'Alenes will become greater
and greater with each succeeding
year.

INSPECTED SHAMROCK MINE
Party Of Eastern Men Saw Property at
Thompson Falls

A party comprising Charles
Maurer, a St. Louis attorney;
Thomas ridden, a retired merchant
OF Mount Vernon, Ill; William
Maurer Of Millstadt, ILL.,, and
Frank Virgin Of St. Jacobs, Ill.,,
arrived at Thompson Falls last
week to visit the Shamrock mine on
Prospect creek. They were met by
Manager Hagler and taken out to
the mine. Of the party, Mr.. Vir-
gin is the only one familiar with
the property, and as he has made
two other visits within a year, is in
a position to note the progress that
is being made. He was most
optimistic in his statements con-
cerning the mine and said: I'VE
have a lot Of ore blocked out and it
is good ore and there is plenty
more in sight. We are pushing
the new mill along as rapidly as
possible and will keep putting more
men on as fast as we can accomo-
date them"
Mr.. Maurer came west to see the
mine with a view Of becoming
interested and with Frank Virgin
returned to St. Louis. The two
others in the party will stay at the
mine.

pany and need only to be utilized

unfortunately. has not been the case
in the past. Early in the camps
history spasmodic efforts were made
to utilize the abundant water powers
available in the upper creek and the
two magnificent lakes that lie near
the summit, but all proved abortive

management. In one instance, $780,

flume at Raven and the head Of the

for an industrial gold producing sys-
tenn that In itself would revolution
ize the Murray district. Too much
gold has been taken from the old
chlnnel placers under the most ad-
verse circumstances to permit them
to lie idle when the Idaho-Northern's
