shopkeepers Join Cripple Creek Miner
in Development of Abandoned
Mine in Chloride District
Near kIngman

The Rainbow Mountain Mining COM
pany, which owns the Rainbow and ten
other claims in the Cerbat mountains,
twenty-five miles north of Kingman
and about the same distance northeast
of Gold Road is installing a 25 horse
power hoist and a compressor, which
is to be followed a little later by a
tramway and concentrating plant. The
company has developed the Rainbow
ore shoot to a depth of twenty-four
feet, and with the installation of the
hoist and compressor and the use Of
air drills, will sink the shaft to the
500 foot mark Water to the extent Of
1000 gallons a day has been developed,
and there will be no question of an
ample supply for the mill with 500
foot shaft.
The ores of the Rainbow contain gold
silver and lead, and carry an average
value of $40 per ton. On the 225 foot
level the ore shoot shows a width OF
from two to four feet for a distance
of 100 feet, there being a decided i'm
provement over the $50 foot level. The
mine also contains two other ore
shoots which as yet have not been eX-
tensively developed.
The Rainbow Mountain Mining com
pany was organized by H. l.. MeCarn,
G. e, McCarn, c. E. Walker and l..
P. O'Brien of Denver, and enjoys the
distinction of having been financed
through a depressing period. without
the assistance of capitalists. II. L.
McCarn, superintendent of the prop
erty, secured the Rainbow in March,
1907, and appealed to his friends IN
Denver for the funds to develop II. A
company was organized and stock sold,
principally to small business men ana
their employees, and paid for by Install
ments. McCarn, who was Cripple
Creek miner, took charge of the de-
yelopment work and has succededed
so we'll that the future seems to point
to early dividends.
The Rainbow was discovered and
located in 1888 by Erin Sherman ana
for several years was worked at IN
tervals by leasers for its high grade
oxidized ores containing gold, silver
and lead. which were packed down the
mountain and then hauled by wagon
to Kingman. In this way the mine
produced approximately $SO,OOO ana
was then abandoned, the workings nav
ing extended into the sulphide zone
Later the ground was located by a
German prospector and from him the
Rainbow company gets its title. the
pluck of the Colorado miners has
brought them mine which promises
to remain a profitable investment Tor
many years to come.
That portion of the Cerbat range,
of which Chloride IS the principal
camp. has several old mines which
have not been worked below the zone
Of the oxides, and which promise to
develop into steady producers with
proper development and the installa-
tion of mills.

far been subscribed, which amount is
sufficient to make the first payment on
the land. At an early date $4,000 shares
will be offered the public at 80 cents
each. Drilling operations will be be-
gun as soon as the papers of incorpora-
tion are officially accepted and the zig
is erected. r. M. Cook will probably
have charge of the drilling.
The directors agree that it will be
an easy matter to finance the com
pany. They have already received
many expressions of confidence in the
property, and the amount of subscrip-
tions thus far received is very encour-
aging.

FESTIVAL OF THE DEAD.
Eskimos Provide Food and Clothes For
Returning Ghosts.


The natives of the Yukon river region
hold a festival of the dead every year
shortly before Christmas and a greater
festival at intervals of several years.
At these seasons food. drink and
clothes are provided for the returning
ghosts in the clubhouse of the village,
which is Illuminated for the occasion
with oil lamps. Every man or woman
who wishes to honor a dead friend sets
up a lamp on a stand in front of the
place which the dead one used to oc-
cupy in the clubhouse. These lamps,
filed with seal oil, are kept burning
day and night until the festival is over.
They are believed to light the shades
on their return to their old home and
back again to the land of the dead. If
any one fails to put up lamp in the
clubhouse and to keep it burning. the
shade whom he or she desires to honor
could net find its way to the place and
so would miss the feast. When per-
son has been much disliked his ghost
is sometimes purposely ignored, and
that is deemed the severest punishment
that could be inflicted upon him. After
the songs of invitation to the dead have
been sung the givers of the feast take
small portion of food from every dish
and cast it down as an offering to the
shades. Then each pours little wa
ter on the floor so that it runs through
the cracks. In this way they believed
the spiritual essence Of all the food and
water is conveyed to the souls. With
songs and dances the feast comes to an
end and the ghosts are dismissed to
their own place. The dancers dance
not only in the clubhouse. but also at
the graves and on the ice If the dead
met their deaths by drowning. On the
eve of the festival the nearest male
relative goes to the grave and sum-
mons the ghost by planting there
small model of a seal spear or Of a
wooden dish, according as the dead
was q man or woman. The totems Of
the dead are marked on these imple-
ments. The dead who have none to
make offerings to them are believed to
suffer great restitution; hence the Es-
kimos fear to die without leaving be-
hind them some one who will sacrifice
to their spirit, and childless people
generally adopt children lest their
shades be forgotten at the festivals
