Wallace the first of the week, Mr.
Russell is apparently very practical
man and takes no fanciful view of
the situation. He modestly admits
however, that he is highly pleased
with the showing Of ore and fully re-
cognizes the possibilities. He has
been quite an extensive investor in
Coeur d'Alene mining property for
the past eight years.

Attention Is frequently called to the
fact that the Nine Mile and Sunset
sections are getting to be pretty busy
places They are indeed, but few
stop to consider just to what extent
the payrolls have grown there within
the past 20 months or two years.
One who is we'll posted on affairs of
that section was asked the other day
to give approximately how many men
are now on the payrolls of those two
districts He figured a few minutes
and said: well. can quickly account
for 500. There may be some more but
there are no less. The Success, the
Interstate and Tamarack Custer en-
poyes number $40. These are the
present producers Their forces are
constantly increasing. The Puritan.
Sunset, Idora, Tuscumbia, Ray-Jeffer-
son, Nipsic and numerous other prop
critics under development account for
the balance Of the 500.

with a similar amount of develop

considered, there is not better show
ing on Pine creek than that on The
Hilarity, if indeed there is an equal
to it.
Most Of the stock is held by charter
members Of the club originally organ
lied solely for pleasure in summer
vacations Some Of these are not nov
residents Of Wallace.
The group is located within easy
tramway reach Of any railroad built
up Pine creek. And in view Of the
present tonnage Of that district. and
the fact that there arc no obstacles IN
the way Of easy railroad construction,
II is reasonable to conclude that Sec
tion will not remain long without
transportation facilities.

RUMoRs or DEALS.
They Are Numerous--Sunset's Fine
Showing.


Showing.
There are numerous rumors of big
deals in the Sunset country, some in
volving the biggest of the properties,
but so far none of these reports can
be traced to any authentic source.
About all that is known definitely
Is that an option Is held by local par.
ties, or was recently renewed or ex-
tended on the Portland Mining COM
pany's holdings, embracing the Sill
yer Tip, Sitting Bull and other side
o1rims This ground Is quite close to
II lasshaft sunk on Senator Clark's Sun
set claim and, with fraction, covers
nvnrvthing between the Sunset and
Tuscumba groups. Where opened it
has a fine showing Of ore.
1t is further generally understood
that drifting and further crosscutting
from the Sunset shaft have given re-
suits even beyond the remarkably fine
showing in the bottom of the shaft. II
is said that in this work there Is 3
decided increase in the amount Ct
shipping ore and also an Increase N
the. size Of the ledge from that in the
shaft. In the latter 1t Is given out de
f1nitelv that there was over 30 feet OF
pay product.
There may be nothing in the reports
If deals and there may be. At least
the available information does not
warrant The Miner in giving publicity
- the rumor at this time. The show
ing. however. is important and gives
assurance of busy times

FINAL PAYMENT MADE
ON THE TUSCUMB|A
PURCHASE PRICE, s5o,0oo--MucH
DEVELOPMENT DONE AND
MUCH is PLANNED.

A most important mining tfansac-
tion was brought to final close this
morning in this city in the payment
of $4,000 by the Tuscumbia Mining
company to George b. Marlle of Ha-
zleton. Pa, the last due on the bond
for the Tuscumbia mine This COM
pletes the payment of the purchase
price, $4,000.
Splendid Location.
The Tuscumbia is one of the best
known and best developed properties
Of the Sunset district 1t lies adloine
ing the Portland companys ground,
the Sitting Bull and Silver Tip, claims
intervening between it and Senator
.Clark's Sunset claim, and but little
over 5000 feet from where the Sunset
shaft, giving such splendid results,
was sunk, TIE Tuscumbia group con-
sists of FIVE claims and embraces the
ground extending from the Tuscnmbia
claim itself down to Beaver creek.
$4,000 Spent in Development
Since the Tuscunlpia Mining COM
pany took hold Of the property under
bond about $4,000 has been spent in
development, with most satisfactory
results Still further extensive plans
of development will be carried out
now that the company is in complete
ownership of the property.
Some Of Those Interested.
Among those of Wallace prominent
lly identified with the Tuscumbia deal
and large stockholders in the company
now owning the property. are Morton
Webster, road master Of the Northern
Pacific: Dan McGrath and George w
Dougherty Those who have been in
strumental in successfully financing
! the proposition and also large owners
of the property are Whaley brothers
and May brothers Of Stevensville
Mont.
Easily Opened at Depth
The Tuscumbia lies in splendid po-
sition for easy tunnel development a
great depth. 1t is now opened over
900 feet deep through ldora workings
Much greater depth is available and !
deemed advisable the company coult
get Beaver creek level through III
own ground.
The Tuscumba is ranked among th
very best showings in the Sunse
country and. in fact ranks with tn
hest in the Coeur d'Alenes at slmila
stage of development.

NINE MILE STAGE LINE.
Gets Good Business--Passengers from
North Of Divide.

The new stage line recently put on
the Nine Mile route, between Wallace
and the Interstate mill, reports very
satisfactory business There is a
large amount of business especially
from the east fork of Nine Mile direct,
but the line also gets passengers from
the north side Of the divide or Carbon
creek section, parties coming through
the long Interstate Callahan tunnel
and meeting the stage at the Inter
state mill Thus Is the climb over the
divide avoided

PINE CREEK AND ITS
RAILROAD PROSPECTS
TRANSPORTATION SEEMS NOT
FAR AWAY-MlNING AND
TIMBER OPERATIONS.

Pine creek people believe the time
is net very far distant when they will
have the advantages Of a railroad. 1t
is a fact that that section has a great
er showing of ore, probably more de-
yelopment and a greater showing OF
business outside of mining than any
other section of the Coeur d'Alenes
prior TO its being furnished transpor-
tation And 1t also seems true that
railroad building there is the easiest
of construction and operation Of any
of the feeder lines in the camp. It Is
asserted by Pine creek resident who
has made some study of the sub icct
that a railroad up Pine cerek within
reach Of the principal properties Of the
district can be built on a grade not to
exceed ! IL per cent. The timber and
lumber business, in addition to the
mine tonnage, are of immense import :
Of course decrease In time, but the
latter would grow for years, for 1t Is a
fact that there are greater number
of showings Of pay ore, on the sur
face or with little work. In the Pine
creek district than in any section Of
similar extent in the Coeur dAlenes
With considerable amount Of mine
tonnage available now. the fact that
railroad transportation WAS known tc
be at hand would be a tremendous
stimuant to quick and further devel-
opment.

pounds. This vast cake was not baked
in one piece. 1t was built up of large
wedges of cake, each baked separate

tiers on the plan of bride cake. 1t
occupied six men for whole bakers
day to build the cake and put the sug-

The Use of Lioht Tones.

Every woman knows that white is
'trying''-that is. its lightness Of tone
throws the darker tones of flesh into
strong relief. a contrast not always
supportabIe. The eye. however. ac-
cepts white much more comfortably
than a pale color unreIieved or wrong
ly judged A whole figure of one pale
tone may look cool and bright and
will certainly be conspicuously visible
and generally decorative in a crowd,
but considered as a single figure the
eye will seek for relief in a variety of
tone and just as the dark touches Of
eye, nostril and lip take the eye in q
face the points of contrast will arres
the eye in the figure. A very famou.

FALSE HAIR NOW
IS UNREASONABLE
The Couture Brings the Locks
Low on the Forehead.

Never were couture effects so fat and
less false hair used. The smaller the
head the better. The only false hair
used now by fashionable women Is
roll to pose at the back Of the head
on which to place their hair. The ends
of the hair are tucked In under this.
and barrette is fastened to cover the
spot where stray hairs almost always
show. The mass of hair is marcelled
once n fortnight or so. and if there
are not too many short hairs the effect
will be neat.
The Psyche knot Is returning TO fash
ion, and the helmet form, which is so
becoming. is still worn. In this the
back hair forms the modern French
twist, and the hair is drawn over the
knot and in way effaces it. Good
effects for the low couture are those
OF simple braided strand of hair or
a knot formed in a fat figure 8.
A tendency toward a slight fuffiness
now marks dressing of the front hair.
and for evening wear it's becomingness
Is undeniable. The present styles are
we'll adapted to the smoothly parted
hair worn by so many women, by
which method the eyebrows are visible
the ears are almost covered and the
hair Is massed on the nape OF the
neck.
Everything seems to incline to the
low forehead. and for a woman who
has not such this is easily secured by
bringing the hnir over the forehead
and fastening it there with an invisible
pin. When the hair is caught back
In the chignon the front looks quite
natural. Everything Is possible in fash
ions OF hairdressing. and perhaps in a
| few years the high forehead beauty
| may arrive
