The editor was curious and ask
ed the doctor a good many ques'
tons in reference to his past
life. which we thought might in
terest our readers. He is
native Of the eastern states, and
and went to school ard college In
some of the best institutions OF
the east. He holds diplomas
from the university Of Michigan,
the College Of Physicians and
Surgeons IF New York, Ths
Man haitian Optical College OF the
same city, and also the National
Optical College. We should
think a sheaf Of diplomas like
this would entitle to practice his
profession successfully mos,
any where and along most any
of the various medical lines.

THE WISE BOY
TO BE WORKED

What was formerly known as the
Wise Boy property has been reincorpo-
rated~b by the present owners as the
Gold Bullion Mining and Milling Com-
pany, with the following directors Sc
lected for the first year: A. w. Moore,
E. A. Carpenter, A. M. Baker, w. H.
Casady, with W. E. Kelley as manager,
says Gxangeville Standard News.
1t is the purpose of the company, as
soon as the snow disappears so work
can be done, to start 400 foot tunnel
on level with the mill in order to obvi-
ate the necessity of using the tramway
on account of the difficulty of deep
snow in winter. This tunnel will give
depth of 400 foot below the present
workings and crosscut the lead on the
North Star claim. The company also
proposes installing Jackson electric
drill and put in sufficient power to rur
it.
The richest free gold specimens Buff
falo Hump has ever produced came
from the vein on the Wise Boy group
This rich property has been tied up il
litigation for several years, but the
recent acquisition of the property by
the Gold Bullion M. & M. Co. has
cleared up all litigation, and the new
company will soon make the old Wise
Boy mine one of the great gold produc
ers of Idaho county.

Coeur D. Alene Company Becomes
Interested In Elk District.
TALK OF A STAMP MILL
One To Be Installed if Values
Continue With Depth.

The Gold Crown group of mining
claims, formerly owned by Dave Pat
terson and Jack Harsh, has been
bought by W. R. Eisenhower, of Spo-
kane, representing the Coeur d'Alene
Golden Star Mining company The
property was taken under bond several
weeks ago. The first payment was re-
ceived Wednesday. There is one more
payment to be made. The sale price is
not given, but from the good showing
and the amount of work done on the
property it is judged it brought consid1
cradle sum.
A report from Spokane says the same
company has bought one-third inter
est in the American Flag group of
mining claims. The company will con-
tinue development work on the Gold
Crown and stamp mill will be in
stalled if the present excellent showing
is maintained at depth.
The Gold Crown was formerly known
as Old Blanco. 1t consists of three
claims and is on Red river above the

MINING IN
BIG CREEK

The Big Creek mining district, near
Roosevelt, is destined to become one of
the greatest producing gold districts in
Idaho, according to the prediction of 1.
H. Friar, who is working the Pueblo,
Columbia and Apex properties.
Mr.. Friar states to a Weiser news
paper that the work on these properties
has been going on steadily for a year
past, and tunnel 1886 feet long has
been run on the Pueblo, cutting rich
vein of gold bearing quartz at a depth
of 140 feet.
"The work on the mill at the Pueblo
mine is almost completed, states Mr..
Friar, "and it is expected the mill will
be running within 30 days. We are
taking out ore now for the test. run
which will be made on fair sample of
all the ore in the ledge. The ledge is
six feet wide, with ore running about
SIS to the ton.
"The mill on the Columbia is now
under construction, and expect to see
it running within 60 days. The ore in
the Columbia is exceptionally rich.
shall be surprised if it does not run SAC
to $50 per ton.
"The ore in the Apex is of the highest
grade l have ever seen in a mine. We
have taken out samples assaying ovel
$4,000 per ton. This, of course, is alb
normal, and is shown only in small
streaks. believe the Apex will de
velop into one of the best paying prop
critics in the Big Creek country
In order to get the machinery neces
sary to work his properties into thu
country. Mr.. Friar was compelled tt
build seven miles of road, involving al
expense of about $4,000.

FLORENCE CAMP
GETS ATTENTION

J. P. Keene of Woodland, California,
arrived in this city last week and ex-
poets to leave shortly for Florence
placer fields, says Grangeville Free
Press. Mr.. Keene is an expert mining
man and comes to operate an Empire
hand drill, a mining tool used in sinking
holes in the placer fields to determine
the value of the gravel. He is en-
ployed by the company operating the
Last Chance Placer claims, some six or
eight hundred acres in extent. The
drill has been used all over the world in
testing placer ground. Last winter
Mr.. Keene was in South America super
vising the useing of the tool and during
the past summer he has been in Alaska
on the same mission. 1t looks as
though the company controlling the
placer grounds in which Mr.. Keene will
work this winter, is getting ready tc
begin operations in the spring on g
large scale. Mr.. Unterman, the man
ager, has been in New York and the
east confering with stockholders during
the past month, but his arrival is looked
for most any day.

Can Talk With Sites
First Of the Week.
BEST OF SERVICE IS ASSURED
No Visiting and All Who Talk
Will Have To Pay.

George Shissler, of Newsome. one of
the incorporators of the Stites-Elk City
Electric Light and Telephone Company,
which is putting up telephone line be-
tween Sites and Elk City, reported the
first of the week that the line was in
working order as far as Mud Springs.
Five men were stringing the wire as
fast as the deep snow and cold weather
would permit, and Supt. c. E. Kelley
thought it possible the new line, the
entire distance, would be connected and
in operation by the first of the coming
week. Delays that have been unavoid-
able have been experienced by the
builders of the line. If first plans
could have been carried out, Elk City
could have enjoyed telephone commune
cation with Sites and outside points
long time ago.

Coyotes, Bobcats, Wolves and Lynx
on the List.

Deputy Recorder G, L. L. Basket,
who is acting representative for Dep
uty Game Warden M. S. Mason, at
Grangeville, has received from the lat
ter communication in regard to the
bounty that is to be paid for destruc-
ton of predatory animals. The COM
mupication is from the state game
warden to Mr.. Mason, and is as follows:
"This department has decided to
spend So, 600 of the $5, 900 appropriated
by the last legislature for the destruc-
tion of predatory animals, in northern
Idaho. You will please let the people
of your county know that this office
will pay $500 each for wolves, coyotes,
bobcats and lynx pelts until the 1000
is exhausted. Hides must be turned
over to us by the first day of April,
1908. They must be preserved in first
class condition and in skinning the ami
mails they must leave the two front feet
with the bone up to the knee attached
to the hide.
"You will please receive any such
hides from anyone in your county who
presents them to you. Make out a
voucher and have them swear to it in
duplicate and simply state on the
voucher the number and kind of pelts,
Forward these vouchers and pelts to R.
C. West. Moscow, Idaho, on the first
and 18th day of each month up to April
!, 1908, unless the $1,000 is exhausted
before that time. You will please bear
in mind that these pelts are to become
the property of the state, as the bill
passed by the legislature provides that
we must account for all pelts secured,
and that they must be sold and the
money turned into the game fund.
trust that you will take an active part
in this matter and see that we get oul
proper number of pelts from youl
county. w. N. STEPHENS,
State Game Warden.
Mr.. Mason states he will have the
new licenses for 1908 by the 10th of this
month.

Many Take Stock.


Mr.. Shissler's visit here was for the
purpose of selling stock to citizens to
pay up the Indebtedness that has been
incurred by the building of the line.
He reports all along the line the people
recognize the great benefit that is to be
enjoyed from the means of communica~
top, and have taken literally of the
stock and aided in every way that they
can. Sites, being the headquarters
and the place of organization, more
