some very rich ore. The vein
found in the drift has never been
exposed on the surface. but it
has thrown some very rich float.
The surface soil along the course
of the vein is very deep and no
attempt was made to place it, as
it was thought that it could be
found in some of the cross-cut
tunnels.
At the present time the Center
Star is we'll opened up, and it is
now very easy to drive the diff
ferent tunnels to the ore. The
main tunnel is in $50 it., and a
drift has been run on both walls
they being some so ft. apart.
Where the present ore was found
the tunnel reaches a depth OF
200 it,, and will gain depth as it
is run south along its course.
For the present no plans are
made beyond the prosecuting OF
the vein, and determing the ex-
tent and values.

Mineral Zone a Wonder
for Richness.
VEIN GETTING WIDER in DEPTH
Plates Better Than $50 Per
Ton.


The Mineral Zone strike still
continues to hold the first place
in richness and Importance in
this section. AT the present
time the vein has widened, and
the values seem to increase in a
corresponding manner.
The ore is all taken from the
vein and sent to the Reduction
plant for treatment. For the
last two weeks the ore has plated
nearly three ounces to the ton in
gold, and there is no telling
what is left in. the batteries, as
they have not been touched, but
it is generally conceded that at
least 40 per cent of the free gold
will stay in the mortars.
Aside from the fact that the
ore is plating so heavy, the con-
centrate made is very high grade
and there is quite large per
centage of them. The owner
Mrs. M. A. Parr, is now busy
getting out all the ore possible
before the snow road breaks up.
|. A shipment of gold this week
totaled. nearly $1,000, and this is
only a part of what has been
taken out. The mill is rim only
one shift at present and it is not
likely that any change will be
made until after the clean up.
That this is by far the best ore
shoot ever uncovered in this pari
of Idaho, or any other part, fol
that matter, goes without say;
ing, for when it is taken into
consideration that the vein is
better than z it., and all the ore
between walls is taken and that
it is plating under the stamps
better than $50, the magnitude
of the strike can be determined

CONCENTRATES.

From the Mining and Scientific Press.
Velocity of an air current that
appears almost stagnant may be
estimated, where an thermometer
is unavailable for immediate use,
by the use of a heavy rag, or a
piece of brattice cloth charged
with dust. A rap of the hand
on the rag or cloth will raise a
cloud of dust which the air cur
rent will carry away, allowing
the observer to form an estimate
of the velocity.
Wool grease, from wool clean
ing, is sold to refiners, who by
means of distillation obtain
stearin (the better qualities of
which are used for soap and the
remainder for leather dressing)
and olein, or wool oil, which is
blended with other oil and used
in the shoddy manufacturing dis
tricts. The residum of wool
grease distillation is known as
wool pitch and is used, among
other things, for insulating
electric wires.
Authority controlling the use
of explosives in the United States
lies with the legislatures of the
states. Up to the present day
the regulations in different states
have been far from uniform anc

This years most important de-

situation occurred last Friday
morning when the Gilmore &

Bennett & Rodgers, paid into the
clerk of the courts office So, FOL,
the amount of the judgment, in

$3.50 and the costs of the suit

The payment of this money,
in the opinion of many, is prac-
tical assurance that the G. & P.

and it is persistently rumoreo
that work will begin early in the
spring. The payment of the
judgment in the Cornell case is
not due until the latter part o1
this week, but it will undoubted-
ly be; e;paid as it was considerably
less than in the other.

PoWer-site Reserved.

Power-site reserves embracing

February, in California, Colo

as a result of Investigations and
recommendations by the United

lands are withheld from public
entry pending proposed legisla-

also created covering 8,542 acres.

best informed that the G. & P.
will ultimately be taken over by
the Northwestern and become a
part of a transcontinental line
and this theory is borne out by
recent traffic agreements.
At the time the G. & P. and
the Short Line surveyors were
fighting for a right of way down
the Salmon river, and the Short
Line engineers were suddenly
pulled off, the Examiner gave it's
opinion that the G. & P. was
forced to show it's hand and the
hand happened to be of a road
friendly to the Hartman inter-
ests-e either the Milwaukee or
the Northwestern, or the fight
would have then gone on to a
finish, and we still hold to that
theory. But whoever it is, there

The strike was made In the

tunnel, at point where bend

the course of the vein-or will
fully made turn, and in driv-
ing ahead kept getting further
away from the vein, or discover
ed the ore and then left it pur-
poselY.
At this point the tunnel was
very closely timbered and from
the appearance, after the timber
had been taken out, it is sup
posed that, the ore was found
and the side of the drift timber
ed up. After the timbers were
removed it was found that holes
had been drilled into the ore
and never shot. These holes
were fired and the ore exposed.
At the time the work was done
it was known that several good
assays were had near this point,
but the fact that no more work
was done left everybody in doubt
as to the accuracy of the state
ment. 1t is now believed that
the drillings were assayed and
then the place timbered up SO it
would not be discovered by the
owners.

FROM "RESIGNATION"

Blame thou not therefore, him who
dares.
Judge vain beforehand human cares;
Whose natural insight can discern
What through experience others learn;
Who needs not love and power to
know
Love, transient, power an unreal show;
Who treads at ease lifes uncheered
ways;
Him blame not, Fausta, rather praise!
Rather thyself for some aim pray,
Nobler than this, to fill the day;
Rather than heart which burns in
thee,
Ask, not to amuse, but to set free;
Be passionate hopes not i'll resigned
For quiet and a fearless mind
And though fate grudge to thee and
me
The poets rapt security,
Yet they, believe me, who await
No gifts from chance, save conquered
fate.
They, winning room to see and hear,
And to mems business not too near
Through clouds of individual strife
Draw HON award to the general life
Like leaves by suns not yet uncurled;
To the wise foolish; to the world,
Weak: yet not weak. l might reply,
Not foolish, Fausta, in His eye.
