TROUBLE THREATENS
OVER PATEMT|MG Of
CENTER STAR GROUP
CLAIM HAS BEEN MADE THAT
PROPERTY LAPses ON GROUND
OF THE MONARCH KING.
Notice Of Application for Patent 10 Be-.
ing Published But Surveys Are Be-
ing Made in Preparation for Con-
test Proceedings, Il 10 Said.

BEELER, Idaho, Nov. 27.-(Special
to The Miner).--1t is rumored on Pine
creek that there is much trouble or
over the patenting of the Gold Stand
ard, Surprise, Center Star, Blue Bell
and Mucker lodes by the Davidson
Brothers Of Occur d'Alene City. The
property is generally known as the
Center Star group and is located on
the mountain opposite Beeler postof-
flee, about three miles and a half up
Pine creek from the railroad. The pat
ent notice Is at present being publish
ed and the contention Is made that Il
lapses considerably on the ground of
the Monarch king group, which is
owned by group of Kellogg and
Wardner people. The statement II
made that 1t is as much as $50 feet.
During the past week the Center
Star group was gone over by Irving
Anderson the Wallace surveyor and
day or two later the King Monarch
was run again by Robert Merriam, al
so Of Wallace. 1t Is stated that the
King Monarch people will adverse the
Center Star patent and hearing will
take place before the register Of the
United States land Office at Occur
dAlene city.
Both properties are considered as
among the best on the creek and have
excellent showings. The King Mon
arch has been under development most
of the time the past summer and has
ore exposed at several different places
along the course of the lead. Other
properties along this same lead to the
east and farther up the creek are the
Lockport, Idaho, ~" group, Nabob
Pittsburg, Hilarity and the Sydney. All
have considerable ore exposed in var
ious places.

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY GIVES
REPORT ON LOON CREEK.

| There Is one town in the west where
| fuel (coke) costs $46 ton. This Is
lvers, Idaho, the principal local set
Element in the Loon Creek mining dis
trict. This high price, however, is due
to the long haul by wagon from Mac
kay, the nearest railroad point, ITO
miles distant. The route is difficult
because of two high submits which
must be crossed in addition to three
mile climb. The cost of haulage is
two and one-half cents a pound for the
round trip. When load can be taken
each way this is split into one and
one half cents in and one cent out.
The Loon Creek district comprises
an area of perhaps rs square miles,
situated in the northwestern part of
Custer county, Idaho. Placers which
are variously estimated to have pro-
duced from 100000 to $2,000,000 in
gold were worked actively on Loon
creek during tHe ueCduc CIOShl6 Will
1879. Most Of the white men in the
camp, attracted by other placer ex-
elements, left the creek in the middle
seventies, but 80 or 40 Cinnamon re-
manned. In 1879 all of these were mas
sacred save one, who escaped on snow
shoes. At that time It was commonly
supposed that Indians committed the
deed, but now 1t is the prevalent opin-
ion that white men were guilty. Since
then comparatively little mining has
been done on the creek, though all the
promising ground is held as placer
claims. In the placers the gold as o
rule is coarse, nuggets weighing more
than an ounce being not uncommon.
This gold has market value Of SIS
an ounce AS whole the district Is
prospected and mining is
in an initial state Among the lode
deposits those of gold-copper and sill
are most promising

Of the line will be about four miles.
Two thirds of the right of way has al
