The Banner mill level tunnel cross
cut another good ledge at about 1900 ft.
from the mouth of the tunnel, and from
the character of the quartz, nature Of
the country rock, location, pitch and
other characteristics there is every iu-
dication to lead 10 the conclusion that
it is the Banner vein. The vein where
cut has we'll defined walls and is. four
feet in width. Assays have not yet
been made of this ledge but from ap-
pearance the ore carries good values.
For some distance before striking this
vein several rich stringers Of ore we're
encountered, This makes the fifth vein
that has been eross-cut by the tunnel
all of which carry good values. In the
Banner vein the distance from the out
cropping ut the surface directly over
the tunnel to the point where encoun-
tered, is about 700 feet.
Work is now in progress developing
the 965 foot vein as we'll as Oh the Ban
Uer vein. On account of space we are
unable to devote more to this
property this week but will endeaver
to give a more minute account in our
next issue. Mr.. Steele will leave for
Mimi. in few days in tire interst of
the company. Mr.. Robert Walker one
of the most experinced miners of this
locality, will take charge of the devel-
opmenL work at the mine on the first
of the coming month.

Bersh Mining q MilIins Co.

Fl. l.. Benson came in few days ago
from the Rooster Comb nining district
where he has been engaged in the di-
rection of the development work of the
Bergh mine now being developed by
the Bergh Mining Company.
He says that recent strike has been
made that is the most encouraging
thing that has ever happened in that
mining district. While working on the
development tunnel in which they
tapped the ledge at a depth of about
100 feet last week they opened an ore
shoot that carries oxidized free milling
ore of high value. 1t is continuation
of the ore shoot from which G. A. Bergh
took out lot of valuable ore to depth
of so feet from the surface, working in
a shaft.
In addition to the main ore shoot
that carries such fattering values Mr..
Benson says there is lead of base ore
on the foot wall that show up splen-
didly and he is confident that it is oI
great value.
The work of installing an up to-date
mill is to be rushed right along and il
is thought that it will be in operation
by the first of the new year. Mr.. Ben.
son feels assured that there is no ques'
tion of the stability Of that mine and
that it will turn out to be one of the
best of the many famous mines Of
OHyhee county.

The Trade Dollar Company have
moved the miners from the Blaine
boarding house to the Black Jack as it
is much nearer their work.
A 500 foot shaft is being sunk from
the 100 #. level in the Dewey tunnel
of the Trade Dollar property. The ex
tensive development work now being
done on this property will surely open
up some extensive rich ore bodies on
this well known property.

A Day In The Gov

An Interesting Account Of the
A-Y-P Exposition.


1t is almost eight O'Clock. The sun
light is reflected from thousands of cleo
trio light globes hanging in festoons
above the tall woven wire fence around
the grounds and hundreds of flags are
fluttering in the morning breeze.
A crowd is already waiting under the
three great archways in front of the gates,
just inside, is groop of American youth
in Japanese costume sitting in jinrikishas
and another groop in natural dress in
wheeled chairs AT eight, the gates open
and the murmuring throngs, after depos-
iting their fifty cents pieces, surge past
the twenty four turn-stiles. A babel of
voices Immediately arises from the pro-
gram sellers, iinrikisha boys, barkers, and
vendors, each taxing his vocal powers to
the utmost to attrect the attention of the
crowds. ITO days programl Name and

From the direction of Pay Streak

fusing, each barker seeming afraid that
some one will go past without patroniz-
ing his particular side show.
Straight ahead past the statue of Wash
ington is the government building with
its stately dome, its many flags flying on
top, and its rows of columns in front.
Inside this building, civil government is
not the dry study which pupils find it in
schoolroom.
The judicial DepA rtment
The walls in the alcove given to this
department are covered with plaques
and engraved portraits of the men con-
nected with this branch of the govern
ment. There are also busts of the seven
deceased chief justices which make the
scene more life-like and call up moment
GUS events of our nations history.
First is John Jay who made the inn
portant treaty with England; John Rut-
ledge, Oliver Ellsworth and John Mar
shall who also belong to the Revolution
AIRY period; Roger Brooke Taney with
head bent forward and questioning
look on his countenance as if doubling
the righteousness of his famous Dred
Scott Decision; Salmon Portland Chase,
confident that abolition is right and
ready to sentence Pres. Andrew johnson

Morrison P. Waite and Melville W.

either of finely woven robes. or of mats, or of different sorts of food, or manufactured by the Umkulu or other subject savages which they wore upon their wrists and ankles.
 Certain of these doomed folk, how ever, went to their fate with no light hearts. which was not wonderful as it seemed that these were neither ill nor sought voluntary euthanaSla- They were political victims sent thither by Eddo as an alternative to the terror of the Red Death, whereby according to their strange and ancient creed they would have risked the spi1ling of their souls. For the most part the they had been adherents and support CTS Of the old Mother of the Trees, Nya, over whom Eddo was at last triumphant. On their way up to the Fence such individuals would stop to exchange a last few. sad words with their dethroned prieStess-
 Then without any resistance they went on with the rest, but from them the mutes received scant oHerlngs, or none at all, with the result that they were cast into the worst situated and most inconvenieut graves. or even tumbled two or three together into some shapeless corner hole. But after all that mattered nothing to them so long as they received sepulchre within the Wall, which was their birth-or rather their death-right.
 The pr1eSC-muC0S CneInSolSeS were d strange folk, and oddly enough Ra- chel observed, by comparison quite cheerful in their demeanour, for when off duty they would smile and gibber at each other like monkeys and carry on a kind of market between them selves. They lived in that part of the circumference of the Wall which was behind the hill whereon grew the sacred tree. Here no buria1S took place, and instead of graves appeared their tiny hutS arranged in neat streets and squares. In these they and their fore fathers had dwelt from time immem- orial; indeed each little hut with few yards of fenced-in ground about it ornamented with dwarf trees. was a freehold that descended from father to son. For the muteS married, and were given in marriage, like other folk, though their children were few, a family of three being considered very large, while many of the couples had none at all. But those who were born to them were all deaf-muteS. although larly acute.
 These mutes had their virtues; thus some of them were very kind to each other, and especially to those from the outer forest world who came hither to bid farewell to that world, and others, renouncing marriage and all earthly joys, devoted their lives, which appear ed to be long, to the worship of the Spirit of the Tree. Also they had their vices, such as theft and the seducing away of the betrothed of others, but sometimes led to murder by poisoning, an art whereof they were great mas terS.

 Nya ceased her singing. and the dwarf women their beating on the drums.
 Hast thou been a journey. Maiden?'' she asked, looking at Rachel curiously.
 Aye, Mother she answered in a faint voice, "a journey far and strange.''
 And thou, Noie, my niece?''
 Aye, Mother" she answered shiver- ing as though with cold or fear, "but I went not with my Sister here, l went alone-for years and years"
 "A far journey thou SayeSt. InkOSa- zana, and one that was for years and years, thou sayest. Noie. yet the eyes of both of you have been shut for so long only as it takes a burnt moth to fall from the lamp flame to the ground. I think that you slept and dreamed a moment, that is all.'
 ''Mayhap, Mother replied Rachel, 'but if so mine was a most wondrous dream such as has never visited me before, and as pray, never may again. For I was borne beyond the stars in the glorious cities of the dead, and I saw all the dead, and those that I had known in life were brought to me by Shapes and Powers whereof could only see the eyes.
 And didst thou find him whom thou soughtest most of all?''
 Nay" she answered, 'him alone I did not find. I sought him, I prayed
 
 him to me, and they called up all the dead, and I scanned them every one, and they summoned him by his name, but he was not of their number, and he came not. Only they spoke in my heart, bidding me to look for him in some other world"
 "Ah!" exclaimed Nya starting a lit tie, "they said that to thee. did they? We'll, worlds are many, and such search would be long," Then as though to turn the subject. she added. And what sawest thou. Noie?'
 'I Mother? I went not beyond the stars, I climbed down endless ladders into the centre of the earth. my feet are still sore with them. I reached vast caves full of a blackness that shone, and there many dead folk were walking, going nowhere. and coming back from nowhere. They seemed but not unhappy, and they looked at me and asked me tidings of the upper world. but I could not an swer them, for whenever I opened my lips to speak a cold hand was laid up on my mouth. I wandered among them for many moons, only there was no moon, nothing but the blackness that shone like polished coal. wander
