He wasn't the sort Of husband whose

Then he opened the door Of the

Walter East. former Akron man

East's plan, however. is different
from the usual union idea. He would
not have salaries regulated. He

ing of a pump, which will probably
be in operation inside of the next
two weeks. (.
Davis and Wilson will also install
a pump and the work on their prop
erty will be rushed. They have Sc
cured in several places dirt that
averages over $6 to the pan and
when everything is in shape they
expect to make some startling clean
ups. se
Shea, Putnam and Wilcox have or
dered a hoist for their property and
they viii also start sinking a new
shaft, as too muco water was en-
countered in the old one when they
struck the bedrock. T'fice and Waid-
man have installed a sluicing pump
and are working on a good body Of
dirt.
Charles Humphrey and Frank
Maxsdon have just started work on
a large body of ground, but have not
reached the bedrock yet. They will
install a complete equipment and
when the bed rock is struck will rush
the operations.
The bedrock is found throughout
the district at about an average
depth of forty-five feet and the width
of the channels run from 100 to 900
yards. Paintings can be secured
from the surface down, but the rich
ground is found near the bedrock.
Several dry washers have been in op-
Grafton in Manhattan for several
years on the Little Grey ground, and
excellent returns are being secured
by them.
The Simplex Auto company is
making daily trips to Manhattan and
that vicinity and they report that
the travelling has increased consider
ably since the placer operations were
started, A number of old n!anhat-
tan residents have been attracted
back to that camp and nearly every
newcomer is anxious to secure a
lease.

Pioneer Camp
A Great One

Every train that arrives at
Springdale from the south is loaded
with passengers bound for the camp
of Pioneer" stated Dave Holland last
evening. Mr.. Holland has spent sew
eral days in the new camp and is
very enthusiastic over the future of
that district and states that the pop
ulation is increasing rapidly. Gold
field is also fairly well represented.
as is the northern end of the county.
There is no question:" continued
Mr.. Holland, "as to the future of the
camp. Lots on Main street that
were selling for $50 a week ago are
now selling for $500 and $1,000. The
district was started about the first of
the year, and the first house was
built at that time. Now there are
fully 500 people in the camp and
nearly fifty houses are either built or
under course of construction. The
town will have a bank very shortly
and the erection of a hotel has been
started. The building of a pipe line
VIII also be started very soon and
the survey for a railroad from
Springdale is now under way. This
road will be a branch of the Tono-
pah and Tidewater and the officials
have spent several days in the camp
looking over the situation. The
main mine is stripping about ten tons
of ore daily and the leasers predict
that the output inside of the next
month will be between $4,000 and
$4,000 a day. The leasers expect
to encounter the pay shoot inside of
the next ten days. Already about
twenty-five leases have been let and
OF this number ten of them are
working and the rest of them will
start by ire first Of February. The
Mayfower mill has been completed
and will start operations inside OF
the next ten days"
Mr.. Holland will return to Pioneer
today and spend several days there
as he has acquired a few interests
there.

BOON Al nELLEsiELEN.-

A. d. Cranstoun, foreman of the
Observation-Disclosures property at Belle
helen, came in from that district yes
terday and leaves this morning for
Denver, where he will spend several
weeks visiting friends. Mr.. Gran
stoun states that a new strike was
made several days ago by leasers
working OF the Lawrence property
at Horseshoe, who discovered tellur-
ium ore. When the report of this
discovery reached Helena it caused
quite a stampede to the scene and a
number of offers were made for
leases. The rock found carries high
values and the discoveries are pre-
pairing to carry on extensive opera
lions.
On the Observation-Disclosures prop
erty work is being rushed along and
a force of fifteen men is now EN-
ployed. The company win o start
to build a pipe line from the springs,
about two miles away, and in the
spring will probably start on their
mill. Several shipments of lumber
have been received at the mine
which will be used in erecting a
number Of company buildings, ,ne
erection of which will be started
soon. The Is working In a
150-foot shaft, a forty-foot shaft n
in an open cut, and the ore extracted
is placed on the dump awaiting the
erection of the mill.

DEPTH PROVES THAT
VALUES ARE IN PLACE

Development in the Keane Won
der are very encouraging this week
though nothing of a sensational ma
ture has been uncovered, yet the
steady and consistent advancement
made in the showing of mineral
wealth justifies the official statement
that the property never looked so
good.
In the lower tunnel, where work is
going on at several points, the latest
thing is a substantial proof of GER
tain ideas of Superintendent Wilson.
The ore bodies have been found in
every instance to have been less
broken up and to stand in a more
nearly vertical position. The big de-
post which was considered the main
lead in the upper tunnel, has now
been developed below stronger and
Of better grade than above. A shaft,
or rather a winze, has been started
to reach the values that depth has
shown.
