AMAzON-D|X|E STRIKE
SAMPLES OF THE ORE
TWO OTHER VEINS TO BE Elk.
PLoREp-oRE MAY EXTEND
INTO THE LESLIE.

Wesley Everett, manager OF the
Amazon Dixie, accompanied by Mrs.
Everett, came over from the mine at
Sildix,' Mont, last week to spend
Christmas with friends in this city.
Mr.. Everett brought with him guam
tity of ore from the strike made In
the Amazon Dixie which was doscrlb-
ed in the last issue of this paper The
ore Is on exhibition at the Office Of II,
u. Rossi and has attracted much at
tention and fully confirms the first re-
ports After a brief visit to Spokane,
Mr.. and Mrs. Everett returned TO the
mine. Drifting on the big ore shoot is
now in progress and there is every
reason to expect 1t to show improve
ment as 1t approaches the big surface
showing several hundred feet west.
Course Of the Vein.
Contrary to the rule that prevails
Throughout the Occur d'Alene district,
the course Of the Amazon Dixie vein
lis northeast and southwest, while the
usual course Is northwest and south
east. Another Interesting feature Of
this strike Is that the vein Is headed
directly for the Leslie ground. Joining
the Amazon Dixie on the west or the
southwest, and it Is in perfect line
with the best ore showing on the Les
lie. In fact, 1t was while engaged in
developing the leslie that the Everett
brothers discovered the Amazon Dixie,
and the remarkable ore showing on
the surface Is probably what led Wes-
ley Everett to abandon for time the
development Of the Leslie and con-
centrate his efforts in making mine
of the Amazon Dixie. Parties familiar
with the Leslie predict that the big end
of the ore shoot will be found in that
ground. but this does not cause any
anxiety since the ownership Of the two
properties Is practically the same.
Two Other Veins.
In driving the long crosscut on the
Amazon Dixie two other veins were
cut which justify exploration. The
first of these cut has course parallel
to the big vein in which the ore has
just been encountered This vein also
showed ore, mostly zinc, and is no
doubt the same vein that was uncover
ed In building the reservoir on the
hill about 1000 feet west The next
vein crossed Is about midway between
the first and the last. It's course is
northwest and southeast, and while II
showed no mineral value at the point
Of intersection, It is nevertheless a
large and well defined vein and its
structure is favorable to ore.

OUTLOOK IS BETTER
ON THE NORTH SIDE
FEELING THAT NEW YEAR WILL
BRING RENEWAL OF Ac-
TlvlTY IN MINING.

A number of visitors from Murray
and other points of the North Side
were In Wallace during the
present week, all of whom expressed
the opinion that the mining outlook
In that section showed Improvement,
and that the new year would witness
a renewal of activity. In fact, taking
in the entire field tributary TO Muir
ray, there is considerable work go
ing on now and the good results be-
ing accomplished presage work on
more extensive scale with the coming
of good weather and the starting up
Of new work on properties now idle.
The Terrible Edith.
The bond and lease taken on the
Terrible Edith and the starting OF
work on that property Is one of the
encouraging features of the situation.
1t Is the general belief that Charles
Conn and his son, who have the bond.
are In reality backed by prominent
and successful operator of this dis
trict. The fact that the bond requires
raise OF 700 feet and a shaft of 100
feet indicates that there must be con-
siderable money back Of the enter
prise.
The Conns are now at work in the
raise and 1t Is reported that they have
struck a large body of zinc ore Of
shipping grade and that they expect
to ship car about January 10. Work
in the raise heretofore has shown
lead ore far in excess Of zinc.
The Jack Waite.
The Miner received information yes
terday that the contractors who are
Waite have struck about three feet Of
good ore This Is the only work that
Is now going on at the property, the
work in the raise having been sus-
pended on account Of allure Of water
power during the cold weather.

dertake permanent development or

Other North Side Work.
Reports persist on the North Side
Giant Ledge, and the permanent man.
ner in which the company has done all
its surface work indicates that tn.
property will be steadily and system
atically developed.
-Four men are at work on the Black
Horse, but 1t is understood that moth
ing beyond annual assessment work
will be done at this time.
The recent cold weather forced the
Paragon to shu. down. but It Is be.
lleved that operations will resume up
on the return Of Manager Stedmar
from Spokane. The Paragon has been
using the Black Horse mill al
making regular shipments of zinc CON
centrates.

INCOME AND ouTeo.
New York Herald)

! Up to Saturday last the receipts OF
the national government for the cur
rent fiscal year--a little more than five
mohths-fell 81 100000 short Of the
disbursements, as against a shortage of
$24,OOO.000 for the corresponding per-
iod Of last year.
| The chief decrease in income is ir
the customs receipts, which were less
than $96000,0O0, a decrease of nearly
one-third. In his annual report, just
issued, Mr.. McAdoo, the secretary Of
the treasury, says that but for the
European war, which has largely re-
stricted importations, the revenue I'M
der the new tariff with the other re-
ceipts would have provided funds t.
meet the ordinary expenses Of the gov
eminent.
Our protectionist friends, however
assert that the main source of the de
felt is not reduction in the volrmc Of
imports, but In the lower tariff ans
greater amount of merchandise com.
ing in duty free Receipts from cor
poration and income tax for the fisca
year to date amount to less thar
100000, as against $2,70O,OOO a yea,
ago. Mr.. McAdoo, however estimate,
that the total government income 70,
the twelvemonth to end June 30 mex
will fall only s1O,OOO,OO0 short OF tn,
outgO, including payments for tn
Panama canal
In reaching this conclusion, however
he omits disbursements for redemp
tions of the public debt, including tn
transactions in deposits and redemp
lions for the national bank note re
demption account, which last year ag
gregated $7,000,O00. For the fsca
year 1916 the secretary estimates thai
income and outgo will balance, but h,
is careful to say that ut is not safe I,
rely too much on these estimates II
view Of the uncertainties occasione,'
by the European war"
The treasury has little more than =
working balance on hand
and 1t is incumbent upon congress
exercise economy in dealing with III
bills.

lnAHo's FIRST STATE HOUSE.
Plans Being Made to Preserve II as
Historic Structure.

The newspaper story relative to the
removal Of the state capital from Lew
iston to Boise has brought out the an
nouncement from the Twentieth Cen
fury club that the organization has
been working for the past sevral
months on plans to preserve the old
building formerly occupied as state
house In Lewiston, says the Tribune.
The ladies are about ready to go be-
fore tho council to ask for permission
e remove the building from its pres
ent site and II is probable the city will
also be asked to appropriate funds TO
assist in the purchase OF the structure
and TO pay for It's removal to new
site. It Is probable an arrangement
win be perfected by which the old
state house may be located in one OF
the city parks and the necessary pre-
cautions taken to preserve II from
further damage by the clements.
TIE ladies' have already conferred

sinking a shaft from the surface. This
Is now down about 80 feet. The
Guelph has been developed quite ex-
tensively by crosscuts and drifts with
very satisfactory results. There seems
no reasonable doubt that the Guelph
has the Ambergris vein, In which n

reports rather slow progress in the

he and another miner, which IS the
extent OF the force, would be disposed
to throw up the Job were It not for the
fact that he feels certain that he is
nearing the vein, Last week the

takes place in this district with the

the vein will be found on the other

GREAT MONUMENT
MERELY PROJECTED
Citizens of New York Planned to
Honor Washington, But the
Idea Was Abandoned.

e IXTY-five years ago the chief topic
- of interest among the citizens of
New York, apart from the Mexican
war which was then in progress, was
the great Washington monument
which it was proposed to erect in
Hamilton Square, which covered the
blocks now contained between Third
and Fifth avenues, SiXty-siXth and
SiXty-Dinth streets.
That was six years before Central
Park had been outlined. Hamilton
Square was a portion of the old com
mon lands of the city, and in the
new city map prepared in 1907 by the
street commissioners who laid out the
city on it's present rectangular lines,
this plot was retained intact as a
park. 1t appears on the maps of the
city up to 1869, at which time it was
wiped out of existence, the western
part being sold and the eastern, in
cluding everything east of Park ave-
nue., being allotted by the city to
various institutions, as the Normal
college, the Seventh regiment, the
New York Founding asylum, Mount
Sinai, and Hahnemann hospitals,
most of which still occupy large sec
tions of the old square.
The very name of Hamilton Square,
as well as the towering monument
for which several thousand dollars
