RESUME WORK ON THE PILOT
Will Continue Crosscut on Rich Murray
Property June l

Frank Frohling, one of the own
ers of the Pilot group of mining
claims, announces that it Is planned
to resume development work on the
Pilot mine at Murray about the first
Of June. No work has been done the
past winter.
A crosscut tunnel which was start
ed at as great depth as was possible
will be continued toward the lead
Mr.. Frohling said that 200 feet OF
tunnel work would catch the lead
and that drifting would then be be-
gun.
1--WE got shipping ore from the up
per tunnel" said Mr.. Frohing.
There is lots of low grade ore ex-
posed. The high grade stuff carries
tellurium or silvernite ore running as
high as $4,000 to $4,000 a ton.
''The past winter we have been
working up some of the gold ore
taken out last summer, extracting
the free gold by hand.
"Tho outlook is very bright for
the North Side for the near future.
l have no doubt but that Murray
will soon be just as good a place as
it used to be and the equal of the
district"

1t Is stated that the new syndicate
will take over the property June /.
A substantial payment was made
on the option, when the same was
given few days ago. The stock
owned by Mr.. Strobe was placed Sat-

EAST sN0ws10RM PROMISING
Mitchell Property Shows Signs Of High
Values

Drifting on the crosscut from the
main tunnel to the main ledge in the
East Snowstorm property, near Mul.
Ian, is being pushed, according to c.
e. Mitchell, manager of the CON-
pany. Mr.. Mitchell states that the
face of the crosscut is now In 100
feet, but that 140 feet remain before
the foot wall is reached.
1--WE have had 1t fully demon
strated within the last few days that
we have the vein of the Snowstorm
mine," said Mr.. Mitchell. 1.-The
property has been examined by an
engineer and compared with the de-
velopment of the Snowstorm and it
has been found to be identical. First,
there was a broken formation, be-
yond which came lime rock carrying
iron sulphides. This was succeeded
by quartzite impregnated with man
ganese, lying contiguous to the foot
wall of the vein. Beyond the wall
the vein matter has been strongly
mineralized and now shows copper
glance and assays we'll in gold. An
average of the assays made shows
$14 ton in gold and more recently
we have struck stringers as high as
$85. We have had the property sur
yeyed again RECENTLY and find that
judging by surface showings we have
5000 feet of the SnOwstorm vein in
our own ground"
Progress in the crosscut has been
slow of late, the miners often making
no more than eight or nine inches
day, states Mr.. Mitchell.

ORE IN THE GRANITE 8 ALLIE
Nine Feet Of Mineral Exposed in Bot.

Nine feet of lead ore is exposed In
the bottom of the vertical shaft be-
ing sunk on the ledge in the Granite
& Allie property, located on Granite
creek, near Burke, according to the
statement of Engineer c. 20. Mer-
riam, one of the stockholders.
The shaft is down 1870 feet and will
be driven to depth Of 200 feet be-
fore drifting Is begun. The ore in
the bottom Of the shaft ON an aver
age runs low grade concentrating
ore, while there are streaks running
much better. Samples 60 $67 ton
in lead, copper and gold. With depth
the ore shows more and more gold.
Another shaft has been sunk on the
lead but is not being worked now as
the water drove the men out. Drift
ing was done from this old shaft. A
10-stamp mill is located at the mouth
of the first shaft but the mill Is not
in use now.

DIAMOND JOE Co. FORMING
Will Develop Group Of Claims on
Beaver Creek

The Diamond Joe Mining company
Is being formed to develop a group Of
claims on Beaver creek, near Carbon
center.
The property consists of sever
claims together with a water right
Two tunnels have been driven, each
Is feet long, one an upper and one a
lower crosscut tunnel. The upper
tunnel broke into the ledge and ex.
posed some Concentrating ore. The
lead was not crosscut entirely but
enough to show that there was ore
there. The ore is mostly galena with
some gold, an assay giving $1.6O in
gold values.
The ledge is over 80 feet wide at
the surface and surface development
showed streaks of ore. The ledge
has been traced for over 900 feet
The ledge crosses the property for
about 1000 feet, it is estimated.
Those interested in the claims and
who will incorporate the company,
are: J. E. Croney of Wallace, Will
lam Shannon of Wallace, who is man
aging the property; ]. J. Butler and
P. ]. Butler, both of Tekoa; Alec
Anderson of Spokane, F. M. Quinn,
and Ralph Thyson of Tekoa.
The property is near the Pawhat-

START COPPER KING TUNNEL
Will Give 500 Feet Greater Depth
on Ore

Miners at the Copper King prop
erty near Mullan began the work
Tuesday of driving the long lower
tunnel which is expected to give a
great additional depth on the ore.
The tunnel as planned will have
4122 feet to go to get under the up
per workings and will have greater
depth of 500 feet than the lowest Of
the present workings. 1t is estim-
ated, however, that the ledge will
be reached by 5000 feet, owing to
the dip Of the vein.
Some nice ore from the property
has been exhibited, the ore being
valuable in copper. The present
workings consist of tunnels and a
winze.
