with the tunnel for some time
past. lfefe
LIQuIDATOR The o00-foot

just been completed but whether
q new contract will be let at once
or not is undecided. The tunnel
has been driven only the zoo feet
specified in the contract. The

in this property in the near fu-
ture. The mine is located in the
Burke section and vast resources
of anthony ore have been OPEN
ed up. Several shipments have
already been made from the
property. It is expected that q
mill will be erected.
vIENNA--INTERNA TIONAL
A large block Of the treasury
stock is about to be placed in the
east and as soon as the returns
from this come in it is the inten-
ton to resume development
work. A large amount of work
has already been done and some
splendid galena opened up. Sew
eral cars of this have been block
ed out and are ready for ship
ment. The shaft has been sunk
to the 1OO-foot level. It is the
intention to continue this an
other 2O0 feet. The mine is
equipped with all necessary ma
chinery. 1t is located on Placer
creek about six miles southeast
Of Wallace.
S. P. & S. RAILROAD-A cut
of running from near Washtuc-
ma, WASH, south of Lake Occur
d'Alene past Wallace to join the
Northern Pacific near Missoula
is said to be planned by the Spo-
kane, Portland & Seattle railroad.
1t is said that the cutoff is
planned especially for through
freight and that a maximum
grade of. four tenths of one per
cent can be secured.
WONDER-It is expected that
the ledge will be encountered
within the next GO days. The
tunnel is now in about GAO feet
and has been driven to get un-
der a 5O-foot shaft to give an ad-
ditional depth of about 400 feet.
About 100 feet of work still re-
mains to be done.
MINERAL FARM-The cross.
cut is in over 800 feet and it is
estimated that the ledge will be
encountered in less than 100
feet. A force of five men is en-.
gagged but it is expected that
this will be materially increased
in the near future. Progress is
being made at the rate of from
100 to $50 feet month.

SNOWSTORM-It is reported
that the shipments from this
mine have been reduced to ZOO
tons q day as against 500 tons
daily during the earlier part Of
the year. The reduction is due
to the fall in the price of copper.
AMERICAN COMMANDER
| 1t IS reported that an agreement
has been reached between the
management Of this property
and the Gold Hunter mine by
which the ore will be taken out
through the long tunnel Of the
Hunter property. BY means Of
this arrangement the necessity
for the American Commander
company driving a long tunnel
would be removed. Some splen-
did ore has been opened up in
the property.
MISSOULA COPPER "A con-
siderable amount of delay has
been caused by the breaking Of
one Of the diamond drills. The
drill was broken about 400
feet down in one of the holes
and all attempts to remove 1t
proved abortive. The men have
now been forced to ream out the
hole so that the drill can be re-
moved. It is expected that this
work will take some time.
IDAHO-MONTANA-Ata
special meeting of the stock
holders held at Burke it was de-
cided to increase the capital
I. stock from 800, 600 to 81, 900. 600
and the par value of the stock
from 10 cents to 81 a share.
There are still 275,0 shares in
the treasury to be sold for de-
velopment purposes. The prop
erty is located east Of Burke on
the old Glidden road and is fully
equipped with all the necessary
machinery for mining purposes.
Some good ore has been exposed
in the upper workings and a
lower tunnel to give depth is
now being driven.
4 HANDSPIKE-It is reported
that ore assaying as high as 81
per cent has been exposed in
this property. There has been
a considerable amount of activ'
ity in the stock recently which
is probably due to this report a.
we'll as to the report that all
transportation difficulties are
about to be overcome by the pro-
jected branch of the Idaho
Northern railroad. The mine il
located on the little North Fork
of the Occur d'Alene river and
is regarded as one of the most
: promising on the north side.
NEW JERSEY-Elmer Aber-
!; nathy OF Spokane has returned
to Kellogg and taken charge Of
the development. A crew Of
seven men has been set to work
and new pumps and machinery
installed for the sinking of the
shaft on the ledge where the ore
body was encountered. The
property is located in the Os'
borne section and is fully equip
ped with a mill and all necessary
machinery.
SHERMAN GROUP-Waltel

Of the ore encountered recf ntly
in this property have been
brought down to Wallace. The
tunnel Is in about 1850 feet and
for the last 100 or 1870 feet the
men have been in ore all the
way. At present there is about
four feet Of good shipping ore
showing with seven feet Of. con-
centrating quality. The present
depth is about GAO feet. The
property adjoins the Idaho Giant

pany has been organized for the
purpose Of developing a group OF

gren, all of Wallace.
COEUR D'ALENE CARBON
ATE The development Of this
property has been postponed for
80 days. Some time ago a trans
action was completed involving
400, 600 shares Of the capital
stock, one Of the conditions be-
ing that the property was to Re
put under steady development at
once. It is understood that a
new agreement has been reached
owing to the soft nature of the
snow which has made the mine
practically inaccessible. The
property is located near Super
ior, Mont.
BLACK HORSE-A force Of
IL men is employed in develop
ment. For the past 300 feet the
lower drift has been in good con-
centrating ore while the ship
ping ore on this level holds out
even better than had been ex-
pected. The property is located
in the Murray section and a mill
will probably be erected during
the summer.
AMADOR- The directory was
reorganized at meeting held
Monday evening. G. A. Solberg
and H. P. Ward resigned from
the board and A. T. Ryan and
Geo. F. Stoney were elected to
fill the vacancies, being respec-
lively president and secretary.
| DALMATIA-T The lower tun-
mel has been driven about 26O
feet and the indications are ex-
cellent. Practically the whole
face is in ore of concentrating
grade with large quantities of
iron showing up. The property
| is located on Pine Creek and is
being developed under the super
vision of Steve Barbora of Wal
lace.
BEN HUR- Contractors Math-
ieson & Co. ARE doing nice work,
driving about 200 feet a month
with three shifts, the tunnel be-
ing SKI in the clear. It is now
expected that the vein will be
encountered some time in May.
The treasury of the company is
in good shape, the stock recently
selling in this section at 10 cents
q share. It is the intention to
withdraw all stock from the
market April l, as it is believed
that before that time enough
funds will have been raised to
complete all development con-
templated for a long time to
come. The property is located
in the Saltese section.
SILVER CLIFF-A force of
/ three men is engaged in the new
tunnel which has now been driv-
en- between 400 and 500 feet. It
is expected that the showing
made in the upper workings will
be encountered at depth in about
so feet, although this may vary
a little according to the din of

 AUBURN.
College Boys in Excellent Condition and Expect to Give Local Asso- eaatfon the Hardest Sort
 of Flight.

Everything Is in readiness for the game tonight with the Auburn basket ball team. and no doubt one of the prettiest exhibitions of basket ball will be played here this season as tho Auburn teams strength has been shown several times this year. Mont gomerys strength Is a known quantity while not much of Auburn Is known, and the people of Montgomery will get their first opportunity to see the col lege boys in action.
 T. c. Locke, an old Montgomery boy. Is captain of the A. P. I. team this year and plays a guard position. Majors. Birmingham man, will play c. As veteran; while Gordy. ofie of Coach Doud's products of the fast Co., lumbus team, will play a forward po- htion. Taken all in all Auburn has a pretty strong team, and no doubt they will make sthe Association team hustle to get away with the victory.
 The largest crowd of the season Is expected as Auburn has so many sup porters here and is favorite in ath- letics of all kinds. A separate apart ment has been reserved for the Auburn men, and the rooting will be some thing noisy as the Auburn men do not do things by halves.
 During the halves a game will be played by the teams of the Barnes school and Edgar's team.
 Game called promptly at s:15. Don- shue Of Auburn will ofticiate.
