Work For Our Town

The Neodesha (Kan) Register says
very town has its advantages and should
lake the most of them. Every town is
(tted for some one enterprise more than
mother, and soon as it discovers what
bat is it should take hold If the matter
nd push it for all there is in it. One
Ian cannot make town. The news
Rper cannot do it. But one man on
ewspaper with the help OF the wide
wake men of the place, all pulling to-
ether, can make wide difference in
De place. Every man who succeeds in
town is help to it. The more money
makes, if he spends 1t the better for
&e community. The larger business he
pilds up, the more he advertises, the
|ore attention is called to the town. A
Rn cannot build up an honorable busi-
Fss in town without helping the coun-
y. The rivalry that sometimes exists
tween towns in the same county is
ort- sighted policy.
On the same subject the Sterling (Kal-
s) Bulletin says: mo town will be-
me a business center so long as Its
siness men rely on few merchants

A few months ago it was thought an
operation might be beneficial to her

the last days Of her earthly existence
Mrs. Thompson was one of the old

STRIKE IN
THE GILPIN-oRIoN.

The contractors sinking the Gilpin-
Orion shaft are very much elated
over the values they have struck in
the last 12 or IS feet of sinking. The
shaft has been making good looking
ore for some feet, but the vein,
which had been pitching north has
changed its course and is dipping
south. With this change decided
increase of values is shown. An as
say of the streak taken Monday
showed 1.36 ounces gold and seven
ounces silver to the ton. Since this
assay was taken three or four feet
have been sunk and according to the
statement of one of the contractors,
made to an Observer representative
last night, the ore now pans much
better than that from which the as
say was taken.
Since the pitch Of the vein has
changed, the crevice matter has be-,
come more solid. The crcvice is two
feet in width with six inches of solid
iron. The commercial value of the ore
assayed Monday is 5000 to the ton
and considering the size of the
streak the strike is of more than or
dinary Importance. With the Is feet
the shaft is yet to be sunk to COM
plete the present contract it is in
teresting to contemplate the extent
of the values to be opened up.
1t would appear to one who has
watched the operations of the Gilpin-
Orion that the bottom of the shaft is
just at the beginning of an ORE shoot
that will permit Of production equal
producers in the immediate vicinity
OF the Gilpin- orion.

SANTIAGO MINE WILL
START IN JANUARY.

The Santiago Mines company, op-
Grating properties in the Russell dis
trict, in the immediate vicinity of
the Pewabic and Old Town, expect
to resume operations about the first
Of the year. This company acquired
mines in Russell in the spring of the
year and started work in May. They
put up one CT the most up-to-date ell
ectric hoists to be found in the state
and sunk the main shaft of their
group depth of 300 feet. 1t was
their intention at the outset to sink
the shaft 500 feet and when they re-
sumo work, the 200 feet necessary
to give the shaft this depth will he
sunk.No drifting has been dore from
the shaft nor will any be done until
the desired depth has been attained.
In sinking the shaft some very
good ore was encountered. At the
150-foot point ore was gone through
that assayed as high as ten ounces.
There was a streak of this rich stuff
four or five inches in width. In the
bottom of the shaft, the vein is four
feet wide and the values average
$40 to the ton.

ROCKFORD HAS ATTRACTIVE ORE.

Sherman T. Harris, who has been
operating the Rockford mine since
the 11th of last month, has struck
body of good ore. Last week he
brought big chunk of the ore to
Central with him and placed it in
the window of the First National
bank. The sample has attracted wide
attention among mining men.
This ore was encountered in the
200 foot level. From this part of the
mine Mr.. Harris has taken out some
good shipments of ore that have run
better than the average. Last week
he sent to the mill, nine cords of
dirt that ran an ounce and q half.
There is two-foot vein of this mill
ing ore in the 200 and four inches of
smelling streak. At the time the
mill dirt was shipped, 1900 pounds
OF iron were sent to the sampler.
This netted Mr.. Harris $3.50 per
ton. The returns from the concen-
trates from the mill dirt were S92.10
net for ten tons.
Mr. Harris has 1850 pounds OF iron
which he will ship this week. He ex-
poets this lot to run between $50
and $50 to the ton.
There are four sets of leasers
working in the 100foot level of the
Rockford. These are making money.
The last shipment of mill dirt they
cord and their iron ran an ounce and
half to the ton.

JURY AWARDS 5000 DAMAGES.

The jury in the second suit for
damages against the Loyden Coal
company - that OF Mrs. Louisa

brought in a verdict awarding the
plaintiff damages in the sum of
$1,000.
Mrs. Supanchis is the widow of
George Supanchis, timberman, who
was killed in the Leyden mine dis
aster year ago this month. Her
complaint charged the coal company
with carelessness IN number OF
different cases, and she was award
ed damages in the full amount of her
demand.
The testimony was practically the
same as was introduced in the dam
age suit OF Matte Merrick the week

in verdict in favor of the coal
company. In the Merrick case the
plaintiff was given fifteen days in
which to file motion for a new trial.

ELECTRIC PUMP AT ADUDDELL

An electric pump is being installed
in the Aduddell mine this week. 1t
hes a capacity of 100 gallons per
minute and 1,00O-fcot lift The pump
will be in operation by the latter
part OF this week.
There is fine ore in the S00-foot
level OF the Aduddell, but in opening
up the ore a water course was cut,
which has caused lot of delay. The
,, new pump will keep this part of the
mine free Of water and will make it
possible to again use the Aduddell
shaft Since the water course was
struck In the S00,the Adudde1l oper-
ations have been carried on through
the Frontenac shaft.
The character and value of the
ore opened up in the s00-foot Adud-
dell Level is the same as that in the
700-foot level in the Frontenac winze
The installation of the electric pump
will enable the Aduddell and From
tenac mines to treble their produc-
ton. 4
At the Frontenac-Aduddell mill
important additions are being made.
Settling ttanks and pump-back sta
tions are being installed SO that the
water can be used repeatedly dur
: ing the cold weather when the sup
ply in Clear Creek diminishes. The
system of settling is the same as
that in use at the Bunker Hill and
Sullivan mills in the Couer de Alenes.
The tanks are being made in Den
yer and will be shipped and as
sembled this week. The main tank
is 34X6x6.
During January and February the
water has become SO scarce in Clear
Creek, it was impossible to start
the mill before noon. With the new
arrangement, the mill management
expects to have an abundance of wat
er during that period of the year
when the natural flow is light.
