THE HERCULES.
The Big Orc Body Encountered in the
Hummingbird Tunnel.

The great ore shoot of the Hercules
bird tunnel last week, and at last ac-
count it was 25 feet in width, much of
it being steel galena of shipping grade
This crosscut is over 5000 feet in
length and cuts the vein at q depth, of
about 500 feet below the upper works
Two years have been consumed in
driving this tunnel

CEDAR CREEK COMPANY
TO PUSH DEVELOPMENT
NEW COMPRESSOR SOON ON THE
GROUND-PIPE LINE TO
CONVEY WATER POWER.

The 2-drill compressor ordered by
the Cedar Creek Mining and Develop
ment company should be delivered at
the mine in about week. The house
to enclose it is now in readiness and
the pipe line to convey water for pow
er is nearing completion. The pipe
line will be $500 feet in length, the
grading for which is completed The
company has constructed dam 80
feet in thickness, 1870 feet long and 8
feet in depth, which will conserve the
water supply and insure steady flow
when it is being utilized. Beginning
at the dam there will be 1000 feet Of
pipe 10 inches in diameter. 1000 feet
10 inches and 1860 feet inches in
diameter The water will have a di-
rect fall of 2S5 feet, and an abundance
of power is assured at all times.
Work Permanent in Character.
The long crosscut for which these
preparations are now being made will
run $500 feet to reach the vein. Some
300 feet has already been run. The
dimensions of the tunnel are 6x7 and
it is being driven with the view to
making it the working tunnel Of
the mine About 800 feet from the
portal of the tunnel the company has
a millsite, and the stream from which
power is being obtained will supply
an abundance of water for milling
purposes. The distance to the railroad
at Raven is only a mile and a quar-
ter, over a wagon road which has no
grade exceeding 2 per cent. Alto
gether the Cedar Creek company is
rapidly getting into position to facil-
itate development and to engage in
actual mining when the time arrives
Good Showing Of Ore.
The lower tunnel will cut the vein
2S5 feet below No. 2, where a good
showing of milling ore has been dis
closed. A shaft has been sunk from
this tunnel to depth of 100 feet, and
in this distance the quantity and
quality Of ore has greatly improved
1t is therefore expected that when the
vein IS reached in No. 3 there will bt
an even greater improvement.
There is strong probability tina
another vein will be encountered be-
fore the Cedar Creek vein Is reached

THE TUSCUM BlA.
Owners Put Few Men to Work on
the Sunset Property.

The ldora Hill company having
failed to make the required payment
on the 26th of last month in accord
ance with the terms of the bond on
the Tuscumbia, the property reverted
to the owners. 1t is understood that
the owners Of the Tuscumbia have
other people ready to take a bond on
the mine, who will have representa-
tives here in short time to make an
inspection of the property.

WILL START TOMORROW
ON LUCKY CALUMET
DRIFT ON VEIN TO BE CONTIN.
UED WEST-OUTLOOk is
GOOD FOR ORE.

Beginning tomorrow the Lucky CAL
umet will again enter the list of ac-
tive companies, according to an an
nouncement made yesterday by Mana
ger John H. Nordquist. Seven men
will be started to work and it is ex-
pected to increase this number a lit
tie later. For three weeks the man
agement has been occupied in getting
everything in readiness for work. All
necessary supplies are now on hand
and all preliminary work completed
preparatory for beginning work un-
derground tomorrow. The company
will use the Ingersoll Water Leyner
drills, which have comparatively re-
Gently been introduced into this dis
trict and which have made such a
phenomenal record.
Will Continue Drift West.
The drift in the lower tunnel which
has already explored the vein for a
distance of probably 1000 feet will be
continued. Its course indicates that
it is identical with the National vein.
About the time the Snowstorm closed
the deal for the Missoula. Manager
Nordquist made a sale Of 100000
shares of Lucky Calumet treasury
stock which insured the prosecution
Of the work now being undertaken.
Who the purchaser was has not been
made public, but at the time it was
made the report was current that it
was the Snowstorm. The Lucky Cal
umet is regarded as among the most
promising in the copper belt. The
vein carries copper uniformly, but the
ore so far is not Of a grade to give 1t
commercial value. The work now be-
ling started will be pushed aggressive
ly and the management expects to
! transform the Lucky Calumet into a
mine before the summer is gone.

IDAHO.lOS ANGELES
SOON TO Be WORKING
DIRECTORS TAKING PRELlMiN-
AIRY STEPS FOR EARLY
RESUMPTION.

John W. Fink, who will be remem-
bered as one of the "lucky Swedes"
who cleaned up a comfortable stake
out of the 16 to 1 (Rex), of which he
was one of the original owners, ar
rived in the city last week, coming
from Los Angeles, which has been
his home for several years Mr.. Fink
is one of the large stockholders and
Mining company, which owns a prom
ising group of claims covering both
sides of the divide at the head Of the
east fork Of Nine Mile and Dobson
gulch. He Is accompanied by H. Lei
thread, who is also one Of the direct
ors Of the company and who repre-
sents large number of Los Angeles
stockholders. These two have been
in consultation with Alex Mcdonald,
of Nine Mile, third director, with the
view to resuming operations on the
property and plans have practically
been agreed upon to that end. A
meeting Of the stockholders has been
called for the purpose Of electing a
new board Of directors and taking
such preliminary steps as may be
necessary to begin work.
Well Located Property.
The Idaho-Los Angeles group con-
sists of seven claims south Of the In
terstate- Callahan and is well within
the great ore belt that extends from
Burke westward across the Sunset
section and upper Nine Mile The de-
velopment work consists mainly of an
upper crosscut about 400 feet in length
and drift of about 100 feet on the
vein. Another tunnel probably 500
feet below the first Is 800 or 700 feet
in length, Including prosecuting and
drifting The vein is more or less
mineralized and abundantly justifies
further exploration. From the posi-
ton Of the property and the apparent
course of the vein, it appears to be a
continuation Of the Tamarack. On the
Dobson gulch side several short pros
pect tunnels have been run which
have clearly located the vein.
Mr.. Fink expects to remain here
and it is probable that arrangements
will be completed for the resumption
Of work within a short time.

Property in tho Copper Belt.

The Lucky Swede group consists or
IA claims and fractional claims lying
close in to the Idaho Montana divide.
The group Is about mile and a half
south of the Bullion, three miles from
the main line Of the Milwaukee ana
only half mile from a logging branch
of that road. The development work
up to date consists Of tunnel some
thing over 400 feet in length and
which discloses strong vein carrying
values in copper and a little galena
This tunnel is at the north end of the
group. 1t is the purpose now to start

Automobiles in Vermont.

1t is of course quite generally known
that the automobile industry now ranks
as one of the largest in the United
States. Today it even exceeds lumber
and is probably a close rival of our
great steel industry. In 1909 there
were few more than 1900 automobiles
in the state of Vermont. In 1913, only
four years later, Vermont showed a
registration of only a few less than
5000, while to July l Of the present
year there was total registration Of
$3.50 and the state Of Vermont had
received the sum of Sill, 800 in regis
tration and license fees. At an aver
age of only $500, which seems rather
low, there has been expended for auto
mobiles in Vermont from March l to
July over one million dollars. Six
counties in the state lead Orleans in
the total registration and license fees,
while seven are below US on these
items. Already this season Orleans
county has paid to the state treasurer
for these two items over So, 500 and
while six other counties lead US, of
these six, only three of them lead US
by over 1000 each. It will therefore
we'll up in the running, and per capita
WIN
town of Barton as will be found any,
where in the state. Less than ten
years ago an automobile in Vermont
was deemed public nuisance, hated
by every farmer within our borders
and each successive legislature made
the most stringent laws for their con-
troll and yet nothing had done so much
to improve our highways and has at
the same time contributed to their
improvement in dollars and cents as
has the ''benzine buggy" Every new
invention has been at first looked at
with suspicion and the automobile
naturally had to pass much adverse
criticism but when the great agricul-
tural population of our state finally
took kindly to it and the farmer found
an actual business value in owning a
! car adverse criticism and chronic
kicking stopped and today probably a
census will show more cars owned by
our rural population than by the
people in the towns.

Fair Notes.

There is a good crowd today with
prospects for much larger crowds
Thursday and Friday. The exhibit is
exceptionally large and good. Come.
Simpson brothers of Lyndon are

The Marston Stock farm of Oxford,
N. H.. has a splendid showing of
Hereford stock at the fair.
The Midway and it's stands of fakirs
and shows is much more extensive this
season at the fair than ever before.
Thomas Tighe. who handles all the
space and concessions at the fair for
the association, has again shown his
ability to get large number of these
attractions here this season.
4 Frank Parlin of Orleans. who has
for the past two seasons handled the
construction and repair crews at the
fairgrounds, has again shown us his
ability to put things in order. The
grounds never looked better than this
season.
The Orleans County Agricultural
association will have large tent as
headquarters at the Barton fair, to
which all farmers and members are
welcome. S. N. Stimson of St. Johns

Or eans-Barton Tennis.3

The second series of tennis between
Orleans AMI Barton was played at
the Powell-Seaver court and as result
some very fast matches were pulled off.
In singles the Barton aggregation had
little something on their opponents j:
C. S. Webster beat Allchurch 60 and
62. White beat RowelI Ga and 1
Heath beat Ordway Ga. 1-6 and 60 in
very interesting match which as
above noted went three sets. 1t was
perhaps unfortunate. too, that Ordway
had just finished fast set of doubles
ana was somewhat tired as a
result, but the games indicate
how closely these two men are
matched. Corley beat Ray Wilson,
s., 60 In doubles each team won a
match, Rowell and Ordway winning
from Webster and Wilson, 6-3, Ga,
while White and Heath beat Allchurch
and Corley, 6-3, 63. It is to be hoped
that these matches may continue, they
are bringing out lot of local talent
and are in every way a good thing for
both villages.

Caucus for Republican Town Repre-
sentative.

Caucus for Republican Town Repre-
Believing that the best interests of
the party would be served by calling
the caucus for the selection of a
Republican candidate to represent the
town OF Barton in the next general
assembly OF Vermont, at the same time
and place as the caucus for the election
OF delegates to the Republican state

"Resolved: That it is the sense OF
this meeting that the Republican town
committee call as soon as practical a

llcan party and ought to receive the
