SNOWSHOE COMPANY
START NEW Tunnel
MULLAN COPPER PROPERTY
PLANS EXTENSIVE WORK
-ADJoINs sNoWsToRM.

The Snowshoe Mining company Of
Mullan Is preparing to resume oper-
atoms at the mine as soon as practic-
able. The company has under consid-
Grafton the driving a new lower tunnel
about 1000 feet in length, which would
give them an additional depth Of about
600 or 700 feet below the present low
er tunnel. The site Of this new tunnel
will be near the Butte & Occur d'Alene
lower tunnel on the opposite side Of
the gulch. Negotiations have already
been opened with the Butte & Occur
d'Alene owners 1t is probable that
the Snowshoe company will use the
Butte & Occur d'Alene compressor
plant for power. 1t is a 2-drill 2-stage
Franklin machine and one Of the most
economical plants in the district. As
a preliminary arrangement for the
work, the Snowshoe company has
called an assessment Of five mills per
share, payable April 26. The Snow
shoe is located in the new copper belt
lying between the National and the
Snowstorm and adjoining the latter on
the west end lines. The present low
er tunnel shows an immense body Of
low grade copper ore very similar to
the National and Snowstorm bodies.

Snowstorm ground, has forwarded the
following circular letter to it's stock
holders. In speaking Of the Snow

Snowshoe letter follows:
Since our last report Of June 2
1918, drifting and prosecuting on the
vein has been continued and since
that time about $50 feet of develop

The Snowshoe Mining company
have made arrangements to commence
work about April /. The drift will bt

GOOD GALENA ORE
CARBONATE HILL
SOUTH SIDE MULLAN PROPERTY
HAS IMPORTANT 81
SHOWING.

The Carbonate Hill Mining com.
pany in the Mullan district, operating
in the south side mineral belt, has
completed sinking a winze in the low
err tunnel level distance Of so feet,
where work was temporarily sus-
pended for lack Of facilities to handle
the muck and water to advantage.
The bottom Of the winze shows 81
inches wide of high grade galena ore,
having increased in that depth from q
foot in width on the tunnel level. The
company has very important show
ing, and one worthy Of more active
development than the company has so
far been able to do. The lower tunnel
shows several quite extensive bodies
of milling ore of both lead and zinc,
the clean galena stratas being only a
part of the developed ore.

A peculiar mixup Of affairs exists
at the Missoula Copper property at
Mullan. recently purchased by the
Snowstorm. To start with the Inde-
pendent company secured permission
from the owners Of the Rosy claim
(now known as the Nellle) to start
a tunnel on that claim for the devel-
opment Of the Independent. An agree
ment to that effect was drawn up. but
never signed Later, the Missoula
company secured verbal agreement
from the Independent company to use
this tunnel as an outlet for Missoula,
extending the tunnel on further north
into Missoula ground. The original
owners Of the Rosy sold their interests
to others, who in turn have transfer
red the claim to the National company
so that the tunnel site is now on Ma
tional ground Just what will be done
about 1t has not been determined. The
National has shown no disposition to
stop the work because Of their own
ership OF the tunnel site ground, and
It Is likely that some arrangement will
be reached between them and the
Snowstorm company. allowing opera
tons to continue uninterrupted.

HEADLIGHT PROVES
VEIN 0uTCR0P
RAISE IN LOWER TUNNEL SAID
TO BE. IN BIG MINERAL
VEIN.

For some time past the Headlight
company at Burke has been raising
from the lower tunnel to determine
the apex Of the vein. about which
there is some dispute between them
and the Cleveland-Green Hill COM
pany. 1t is reported from Burke this
week that the raise started by tn.
Headlight has encountered the vein
and that the owners believe beyond
la doubt that they have permanently
established their theory of the apex
rights. They think this vein is I'M
doubtedly the Mammoth and Green
Cleveland vein. The vein shows
16 feet wide in the raise and is fairly
I we'll mineraized. The Headlight
ground joins the Mammoth on the east
end. In order to start the work Of
raising on their own ground 1t was
first necessary for the Headlight COM
pany to do considerable prosecuting to
get away from ground owned by the
Green Hill Cleveland company.

The preliminary work Of starting

yet been determined, but 1t is believed
to be much more extensive than so

has now proceeded into the Nellie and
Little Bert claims, and the vein Is
stronger here than it was where first

lions of the ore shoot enriched by

the last that the National has on the

STEWART COMPANY
PAYS BIG DIVIDEND
HElNZE PROPERTY At KELLOGG
DISTRIBUTES $1230oo TO
STOCKHOLDERS.

The Stewart company in the Ward
ner district with mills at Wallace, has
declared its No. dividend, amounting
to 10 cents per share, or a total of
$4,000, payable April 25 books clos
ing April Is. The present dividend
has been delayed owing to legal COM
plications arising from a suit started
against the company by one of its
stockholders. M. w. Bacon, manager
Of the property, states that the COM
pany has ample funds on hand to meet
this dividend and leave a substantial
working fund. The mine produces
from $50 to 500 tons of ore per day,
which is hauled to Wallace and treat
ed in one Of the Federal mills. which
the company holds under lease Dur
ing 1913 the Stewart produced within
100000 ounces as much silver as was
produced by the Bunker Hill mine,
and about one-third as much lead.

(By r. n. Bell)

In the Occur d'Alene Mines the
ground is almost Invariably damp and
very little trouble has hitherto been
experienced from drill dust until the
introduction Of the hammer drills and
the prevailing use of dry holes has
developed some dusty situations in a
few of the slopes, and especially in
dry raises. To modify the serious eff
feet of dust on the miners health, the
companies have installed different de-
vices to kill the dust from the drill
cuttings, and are endeavoring to in
duce their use by the men. but min
ers seem slow to appreciate the eff
forts of the operators In their behalf
and often wilfully disregard orders in
the application of these devices
The most popular device in use so
far in this district Is made by the
Waugh Drill company and consists Of
a simple injector pump spray that is
attached TO one-man machine and
operated by small air valve, draw
Ing water through a half-inch rubber
hose In can. Two gallons of water
will supply this little dust killer for
half shift. 1t throws fine spray
directly on the collar Of the hole and
turns the fine cuttings into dripping
mud as fast as 1t falls and before 1t
gets away from the collar Of the hole
entirely laying the dust and is very
effective. The spray nozzle is the del
icate part Of this apparatus and will

is easily cleaned and started again

1t is surprising to see miner will

such means Is at hand to effectively

in my work in the district who were
doing this very thing.
AT the Morning mine the manage
ment was using a small ammonia car
fridge about the size and shape Of a
shotgun shell, which is employed in
the gassy headings at the rate Of one
shell to az pounds of powder in the
charge, and it is figured to effectively
kill the poisonous monoxide or powder
gas that produces such an unhealthy
atmosphere around muck pile after
a round has been blasted
At other points in the district less
success has been found in the use OF
these cartridges, and the ammonia
smell produced is said to give the men
a worse headache than the powder
gas does, which, however is probably
due to the improper proportion Of the
chemical used.
The Hecla management. in its long
1900 heading, has installed small
auxiliary force pump on a temporary
stump in the drain and leaves a hose
playing on the face and muck pile
after round Is shot, which seems to
practically cure tie gassy after-ef-

SIMPLE NEW DEVICE
FOR SLIME TABLES
NEW ATTACHMENT FOR OLD
TABLES Is PROVING A
WONDER.

w. F. Diester, one Of the owners OF
the Diester Machine company, Is In
the district introducing what Is known
as the "Diester Plateau and Rifle" a
simple device to be used on either
Diester or Whitley slime tables. The
device, which Is patented, Is attached
to the table under the linoleum COW
er which 1t builds up slightly slant
wise across the table on the ore dis
charge end, forming a slightly and
gradually raised ridge over which the
ore must travel through the grooves
to reach the discharge. the idea being
to separate the sand from the ore
more closely than can be done with
the smooth surface: the sand being a
Lighter material, falls back when 1t
reaches the high part Of the table and
goes into the tails, while the heavy ore
travels on the bottom Of the groove
over the ridge and into the ore boxes
The device Is attached "a inches from
the ore discharge end on the lower
side of the table and travels across the
table on a slant. coming out on the
upper side under the feed box feet
from the end OF the table. Taking a
cross section and starting at the bot
tom to illustrate, we will say that In
the first four inches from where the
building up Of the table starts the sur
face is raised Y inch; then comes
inches of plateau" or smooth surface;
in the next inches the surface raises
sic Of an inch, the balance Of the
surface from there to the end Of the
table being plateau again.
The first table on which this device
has been used In this district is at the
Hunter mill at Mullan. where II has
been placed on Whitley table and is
in active operation. This is the eighth
table in the United States on which
this principle has been used Mr.
Dester is now installing one at the
Success mill on Nine Mile.
The machines are equipped by Mr.
Diester at cost Of $50 each on 80
days trial with a guarantee that II
will nearly double the output OF the
table. everything considered The ex-
pense of installing the plateau and riff
file. which is about $40. must be at the
|expense of the owner Of the table.
The result at the Hunter mill is
proving the idea an exceptional sue
cess. The machine Is in operation be.
side another Whitley Of the same pat
tern but not equipped with the plateau
and rifle and a careful record Is be-
ing made of their operations for COM
parison. The streak Of ore on the ole
Whitley is about inches wide, while
on the table equipped with the plateau
and rifle it Is about double that width
The record shows that the new idea
has increased the grade Of the ore
produced from so per cent to go pei
cent lead, and also produces about II
per cent more concentrates from the
same feed than the old table, and uses
less water by two gallons per minute
than the old table. The separation
between the waste and ore is very dis
tinct.
