That the Thunder Creek Mining
District in the Cascades is destined
to soon become one of the very rich-
est and most prolific producers is be.
ing amply verified from time to time.
This section is proven to abound in
large bodies Of high grade ore ran
ming to silver, lead, gold and copper.
with some zinc, and is now only await
ing railroad transportation to fully
develop the district into one which
will not only equal but rival the fam
Gus Occur d'Alenes. In this connec-
ton it might be remarked that he
gratifying mineral development in
this district which has been ia pro-
gress for a number Of years has at
last attracted the earnest attention of
the railway world with the result that
two lines of rOad-the Great Northern
and the Puget Sound, Chelan and
Spokane, have made two SURVEYS up
the Skagit river and Thunder Creek
and Ruby Greek. and on across the
SUBMITS of the mountains to connec-
tions in the east side in the Columbia
river valley. The activity in railroad
circles would appear to give every
reasonable assurance of t~ransporta-
ton into this mining district in the
near future.
The latest strike of Importance in
the Thunder Creek Mining District is
hat which vas made on February
llth. on the property OF the Silver Tip
Mining and Power Company, situated
between the summit or Middle Fork
and the South Fork of Thunder Creek,
just north of the Boston glacier and
about four miles northwest of PARK
Greek Pass. Last November the
company started to drive a tunnel
which would ultimately cross-cut sew
eral leads-.he nearest visible outcrop
being distant ABOUT go to 300 feet.
The herald-advance. (Milbank, S.D.) 1890-1922, 1911-03-10

ne surface between the portal of the
tunnel and the first visible outcrop
was covered with timber and rock
sllde. However, at 81 feet from the
portal, and at a depth of about $50
feet, a blind lead was most
ed!y struck-the vein being about five
TO SIX feet between the walls. Upon
suddenly breaking through the coun.
try rock a foot of clay or gouge
was encountered and then two feet or
better OF sold pure galena of the
same high grade character which has
been found upon the property OF the
Thunder Greek Mining Company
ABOUT a mile east. The mineral will
run about 80 to 60 per cent. lead,
from 40 to so ounces silver, with
traces OF gold and copper. Next be-
yond the galena pay streak was a
mixed formation of clay which was
highly m~ineralized. The strike of the
lead is practically north and south
and With only a slight dip. The
striking of this unknown and unlock
ed.for vein and its enormous rich paw
streak has aroused still further in
terest in the Thunder Creek Mining
district. which is recognized to be
m ost fabuiously rich in both the prec-
lous and ba>er minerals. Another
big strike is looked for at almost any
time on b property of the Skagit
Queen company about two miles west
OF the Silver Tip. where a cross-cut
tunnel is 10Y in 600 feet and which
will cut the wide vein which outcrops
several hundred feet above.
The steady mineral development Of
this district will undoubtly have the
effect of stimulating the railroads to
renewed activity to building into the
district in order co get the enormous
tonnage of ore which awaits transport
tation.

 OF TKc GALLOWAY

The Galloway is the oldest breed of pure bred cattle We do pot know its olgln. but il derives its name from an aheient province in the southwest sFn part of Scotland The earliest histories of Scotland make mention or breed of black pOlled cattle. and the excellent quality of the beef the breed produces became known to the English butchers centuries ago. In the early part of the present century thousahds of head of Galloway cattle annually were driven from southwest ern Scotland to the luxuriant pastures nf southern England. where they were fitted for the London market.
 Galloway beef is well marbled. has an excellent flavor. and there Is very little waste to the carcass. That is why Galloways always sell st the high. est market prices
 The early breeders in the Galloway country of Scotland gave their atten ton to producing high class meat for the market Although no attention was given 10 exploiting the merits of the Galloway in other sections of Great Britain. the breed was improved by the systematic mating of the best speci mems of each sex
 The climate of southwestern Scot land Is moist and mild. and the cattle are allowed 10 run in the open the year round Centuries of outdoor life have made the Galloway tue hardiest or all breeds of cattle Ot the hundreds of head Of Galloway cattle selected in Scotland ter importation 10 America scarcely eae has failed to pass the government test for tuberculosis The characteristic coat of hair or the Gallo way also is due to centuries Of outdom fife In many respects the Galloway robe is far superior te that of the buf falo There k a soft. thick. messy un dercoat or hair covered toy an outer eoa, of longer halt which protects tbe am mai from the seventies ct climate The most destra Ole color k dark ma

Gambling In Wood

.'Te most people my business would seem to be devoid of chances" said a dealer in fine woods, yet as a matter of fact I know of nothing that is more of gamble On every log of wood we buy we take a chance that the inside is as good as the outside. At a recent auction of fine woods in London my partner and paid 5000 for a mahog- any log that looked all right so far as we could tell If the inside was sound we stood to make good profit, but worm holes or rotten spots at the core would mean a heavy loss. Not until we got the log to this country and got it opened up could we be certain. As a matter of fact this particular log was perfect, and we cleaned up $3,0O0 on the deal. But it was ga ambling pure and simple New York Sun.

When Bism marck Went Dry

Bismarck was not without supersti. ton, and this always was noticeable on the eve of the new year. From o'clock that night until after midnight he would not take water in any cir cumstances from glass. It was an ancient tradition in the ehsncellor's g family that any one who set the legend at defiance would pass through seri- ous illness. If another tradition is true the observance of the family legend must have been sore trouble to the iron chancellor, for the Paris contem- porary from which we take the fore going says that Bismarck not only loved war. but beer and wines, espe- eially French wines. He was not averse to punch and grog, but on New Years eve grog was under the ban, for it contains water.-London Globe.
