increase 10 partly due to the new

BurnS Party Return.

S. M. Burns, with his sons,
Grover and Waldo, and Emil
johnson, arrived in Meridian Sun
day, after six weeks spent in the
Sea Foam mining district, in the
Cape Horn country, 143 miles due
north of Ketchum. On their way
down they caught 500 trout in one
day and they distributed this out
upon their arrival. They have
some interesting stories to tell of
their trip, and as they were %
miles from the nearest post Office,
Cape Horn, and as it required
about three weeks for a letter to
get out there, they. lose track of
civilization. They performed the
annual assessment work on the
Burns group, and met eastern
parties who are planning to buy.
The tunnel of the Lakeview ia in
$50 feet, and from this ore has
been taken in considerable quan-
titles and shipped. This 10 the
only one of the group that tun-
mel is in for any considerable
depth, but all show good ore bodies
of gold, silver and lead. A distance
of 143 miles to the railroad at
Ketchum makes the shipment of
the ores expensive.
Isaac Pfost returned this week
from his mines, which are located
about a mile from the Burns
group. In Pfost's mine, ''the May
flower" q ledge has been stripped,
which leaves an 18-inch body of
gold and iron ore,
The Burns party report that all
kinds of wild game, including deer,
cougars, wild cats and mountain
lions are in that section of Custer
county. As it is the closed season
for deer the animals are very tame
and often come in sight of the
cabin.
