Vessel Goes to Sea.

A special to the New York
Herald from Truxillo, Honduras,
by wireless to Key West, says
that after two hours of defiance
from General Bonilla, Comman-
der Archibald H. Davis of the
u. S. cruiser Tacoma, Friday
afternoon seized the armed ship
Hornet, General Bonilla's chief
asset, cast the rebel ashore,
manned her with gunners and
engineers and ordered her out of

light of threatened hostilities
against Honduras, says Comman-
der Davis.

This is a busy week in the
house. The solons have agreed
that they are now swamped. 1t
has been suggested that the
afternoons be given over to COM
mittee work and that the real
business be transacted in the
morning. Most of the members
feel that too much time has been
given over to debate and for no
purpose.
The question Of county division
is one which is giving a great
deal of worry and the effect it is
said, will be that there will be
no divisions made this session.

Reduces National Forest.

The president has signed a
proclamation eliminating 9,940
acres from the Boise National
Forest, Idaho. The changes are
the result of a careful field ex-
animation made by the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture in pursuance of a general
plan for the correction of all
national forest boundaries.
The unappropriated portions
of the lands eliminated by this
proclamation will be restored to
settlement and entry after they
shall have been advertised in the
local papers by the Secretary of
the Interior.

For the particular edification of

syenite requires but two minerals

Lessees Are Taking 0ut
Ore.
WILL RUN TEN STAMPS
Put Raise Through From No.
4 to No. 3 Tunnel.

H. E. Gray, one of the lessees
of the Jumbo mine in the Hump,
passed through Elk City last
week for the mine. Mr.. Gray
is an experienced miner, and has
been leasing In Colorado for
several years past, and has just
succeeded in getting the lease on
the Jumbo.
At the present time the lessees
expect to keep ten stamps drop
ping, and at the same time put
the raise through from the No.
4 tunnel to No. 3, a distance of
$50 feet.
The most of the ore for the
mill will be taken from the shoot
found on the intermediate level,
between No. 2 and No. 8. 1t
was this shoot of ore that was
found by sub-lessees last fall,
that yielded such handsome
profits, the ore plating SO a ton.
This shoot has widened from 6
feet to 9 feet, and at the present
time there is no telling to what
extent it reaches, as it has not
been picked up on the other
levels.
Besides taking ore from the
above shoot, the old stope that
is caved, will be looked after,
and quite a little ore will be
taken from here.
On the mill tunnel level or No.
4, is where the lessees will do a
great deal Of development work,
the first and principle part of
which is to get a raise through
to No. 8, so as to do away with
the tram, as at present. At two
points in No. A they have good
ore to commence to raise on, and
in doing this work they will get
some ore which will help keep
the mill running. At one place
in the tunnel they have a raise
UP 80 feet, all in good milling
ore, and it is probable that this
raise will be the one that will be
put through.
They are getting in quite a lot
of supplies, at present, so they
will be in shape to run steadily
in the spring.

Charges Brought Before
Committee.
INVESTIGATE STATE BOARDS
County Division Now Seems
on the Table,

Among the charges that may
be laid before the legislative
committee named to inquire into
the actions of the state boards
are the following:
That the state land board is
responsible for the present con-
dition of the Mackay dam at
loss of thousands Of dollars to the
state.
That through lease made in
Fremont county thousands of
acres Of homestead and dry farm
land are placed in the control Of
the sheep monopolists.
That the Weyerhauser syndi-
cate in northern Idaho has been
given preference in the selection
of timber lands.
That state officials have used
their Offices for personal gain and
have violated the laws by taking
up Carey act land while in the
employ of the state.
That the Washington Water
Power company, of North Idaho,
has been allowed to gain control
of the fresh water lakes and
streams of that section.
More definite information as to
what the state capitol is to cost
when completed, is the demand
Of a resolution that passed the
senate by unanimous vote. 1t
was introduced by Senator Mac
Beth, with the explanation that
the reports issued to date do not
give a clear idea as to how far
the building has progressed or
how much it will cost to complete
it. 1t was also noted that a bill
has been introduced in the house
providing for a bond issue of
100000 for the completion of
the building, but there was
nothing to show that this would
complete the work.
With absolutely no show of
demonstration and in apparent
seriousness the house of the leg
islature has accepted for consid-
Grafton a constitutional amend
ment providing for the snbmis-
sion of the liquor question to the
people as whole for ratification
as introduced by Representative
Bradley, of Twin Falls. The
measure was referred to the
committee on privileges and
elections,
Strong opposition is expected
to develop to the bill when re-
ported out OF the committee, al
though republican leaders declare
it will pass the legislature by a
two-thirds majority. Most OF
them are confident the people
will turn the measure down when
they vote on it.
Considerable worry is felt
among house leaders over the
prospects for the second Nez
Perce county bill, or that OF
Lewis. The fear is expressed
that the entrance of two Idaho
county division bills into the

Gold ores containing 8 to 20
per cent sulphides may be too
low grake to ship or even to con-
centrate profitably, but may be
found to yield the gold to the
cyanide process. All such ore
should be thoroughly tested by
an experienced metallurgist.
When this is done it may be dis
covered that there are many
mines that may be operated at a
profit, that are at present deem
ed worthless under existing con-
ditions.

A mill or smelter should, wher-
ever possible, be built at some
point below the mine, and the ore
transported to it rather than to
haul all the fuel and supplies of
every description up the hill, and
pump water to the mill besides.
Usually the expense of these op-
erations can readily be arrived
at by competent engineers, and
if mistake of this kind is made,
there is usually small excuse for
