NEWS OF THE Mines
Bofnite Property Looks Good
to the Officers
MetaIine Interests Awakening

barring the past week President Feise,
Secretary King and Director Schilling
have visited the Bornite property, about
iour miles north of town. The Bornite
ia located about half way between Nc
Norran's landing and the Brown ranch,
the entrance to the tunnel being only
about 100 feet from the county road.
The runnel ia in about 800 feet. New
4tee rails are being laid, which will
facilitate the work of getting out
material. The company owns about
100 acres of patented ground, through
which there runs a small stream with
sufficient fall and water to generate all
the power needed for the operation Of
the mine.
The officers OF the company have been
exceedingly reticent mp to this time
about giving out information concern
ing the property. They feel now that
they have mine and are enthusiastic
over the prospects. The ledge is three
feet wide with well defined walls and is
increasing in size and value as they
proceed. The average value through the
vein is about $50 per ton.
Work on the property will be con-
tinued with an increased force. Ore is
being sacked and they expect to be able
to ship a carload within next month to
the Tacoma smelter Funds for the de-
velopment of the mine have been raised
by stock assessment, but the officers be-
leve that they have reached point
where the mine will pay for its develop
nent.
The affairs of the Spokane Lead Mine
Co., of Metaline, are being arranged so
that it is expected that the company's
concentrator can be gotten in shape and
started up early in the summer. A. H.
kroll has secured the control of the
company and is said to be able to fur
ther the work.
The Silver Lead Co., of Metaline, has
had four men at work ON the property

suits A directors meeting of the COM

Construction Notes

/ Jones & Onserud started Wednesday
-on the work of grading from the present
end OF the ]. & w. n main line through
the yards to connection with the work
near the Ashenfelter bay
About 200 feet of the tunnel at Blue
slide has been finished, half of which is
on either end of the tunnel. The work
is progressing at the rate of about 16
feet per double shift. No accidents OF
any kind have occurred since starting
work on the tunnel.
Contractors Durkee and Tobin have
started work grading with teams. Up
to this time the mud and slush have
been too bad for this kind of work, but
now that the frost is coming out the work
will be rushed. There will be about 800
teams employed on the job.
About 800 men are now at work on the
grading work of the I. & W. N. extern
sion, and this force will be increased as
rapidly as they can be worked to advan-
tage. About 100 more men are needed
at this time.
Several cars OF bridge timbers and
dinky cars arrived on Wednesday. 1t
now looks as though work would be
opened up with a rush within the next
ten days.
Contractor Kelly, one of the firm that
has the contract for building the bridge
across Ashenfelter bay for the railroad
extension was quite badly hurt Sunday.
While experimenting work on the
bridge he was struck by a falling tim
Der and rolled down the side of the big
fill with the timber. Fortunately no
bones were broken and he is recovering.

Great Northern Planning improvements

1t is currently reported that the Great
Northern Railway is planning extensive
changes in and about their Newport
yards. What these plans are the off,
cials of the road who visit the town will
not say, except to admit that changes
are under consideration. but that the
plans are not completed nor ready for
publication.
Now that the road is planning changes
would it not be good idea for the town
council in conjunction with the Com
mercial Club to take up with the Great
Northern the matter of crossings. It is
possible that some better arrangement
could be arrived at, and if there are any
changes that the council would request
they might be more favorably consid-
cred while the plans are being perfected.
1t is reported that the road will soon
have steam shovels and large crew of
men at work east of town, cutting away
the big bank and making room for more
tracks. Also that there is to be some
change made in depot facilities.

THE TEST THAT TELLS.

Gentlemen:-About one year ago
two of my children suffered badly
from weak kidneys and diabetes;
their urine was very bad and they
have severe spells of dizziness, and
were all run down in health. I was
just about discouraged. I tried sew
eral remedies and finally a doctor,
nut they did not seem to improve. I
knew of friend who was taking
Swamp-Root for kidney trouble with
good results, and I decided to get
some for the children. I noticed
there was some improvement after
they had taken two large bottles,
and continued to give it to them I'M
til they had taken a half-dozen bot
ties and were we'll on the road to re-
covery. l think Swamp-Root has
done more for my children than any
other medicine / have tried, and
recommend it to one having children
who suffered as mine did.

Gentlemen:-About four years ago
I suffered from kidney trouble and
rheumatism in my hips. The pain
across my back became SO severe
that I could hardly straighten up
and could not walk without dragging
my feet. I would urinate frequently
and would have to rise two or three
times during the night, causing me
to suffer from loss of sleep. And
with the pain I was all run down and
began to lose flesh. I saw Swamp
Root advertised and bought one bot
tie to try it. After taking 1t felt
better and could sleep all right at
night. I continued to take 1t until
had taken four large bottles. I was
entirely free from any pain in the
back and began to gain in weight.
always recommend Swamp-Root to
my friends, as 1 think the cure in my
case remarkable.
