THE ECHO.
Work Resumed This Week on a Well
Known Property Near Burke.

The Echo is again the scene of ac-
tive operations. Several men started
to work this week and 1t is the in
tention to continue development dur
ing the winter. The property lies east
of and adjoins the Moonlight and is
presumably on the same vein. The
main development is a tunnel upwards
of 1000 feet in length. which has dis
closed considerable ore in a vein of
great promise. The present plan is to
extend this tunnel, the face Of which
now shows strong indications of APP
preaching an ore shoot. The work Of
the Dom Paul company in driving a
tunnel across the Echo ground Will
complete the work originally under
taken by the Echo company and the
prospect Of finding an ore shoot when
the vein is u is regarded as very
favorable. This crosscut Is several
hundred feet east of the present Echo
workings and also much lower.

in Second Vein.
John III. Smith was down from the
Square Deal the first of the week
bringing with him samples of the vein
in which he recently started to drift.
This vein was cut a little more than
100 feet from the portal Of the lower
tunnel, where it made a very favor
able showing, but the crosscut was ex-
tended on to the big vein in accord
ance with the original purpose, a dis
lance of some 600 feet. Mr.. Smith
working alone has drifted west on this
big vein about so feet and was en-
countering much crystallized lead and
other favorable indications of an ore
body when he was compelled to aban-
don further work there for the pres
ent on account of the large amount Of
water. II was then that he turned his
attention to the first vein cut. He has
now drifted east on this about 25 feet.

quartz. what appears to be decompos-

THE AURORA SAMPSON.
Drift Being Run From the Long n. {.
NJ. Crosscut.

W.
In pursuance Of an agreement en-
tered into between the H. E. & NJ.
and the Aurora Sampson companies,
la drift is being run east from the low
er tunnel of the H. E. & M. into the
Aurora Sampson ground, the latter
adjoining the II. f. & Nj. on the east
1t is reported that there is now about
5 feet of good commercial ore in the
face of the drift, which has been ex-
tended about 175 feet. When the end
line of the Aurora Sampson has been
reached 1t is estimated that about 100
feet depth win have been gained. and
much confidence is expressed that o
large ore shoot will be exposed.
The H. e. & M. company gives the
Aurora Sampson the privilege of
working through this tunnel in ex-
change for an option on so $1,000 shares
of stock al 5 cents per share, the OPP
tion to run IS months. The properties
are situated about a mile and a half
northwest Of Wallsce, the tunnel
through which they are being worked
from Revenue gulch.

THE HIGHLAND. SURPRISE.
Property Appears to Be in Shape for
Lono Period of Production.

According to the Wardner News,
the drift from the Surprise ground
into the Highland Chief has now been
extended 1000 feet and shows four
feet of ore carrying Ia per cent lead,
10 per cent zinc and sc ounces silver.
The drift is 126 feet below the High
land Chief tunnel and a raise is now
being made to connect them. The ore
in the drift has steadily improved in
quality and increased in width. Ore
now in sight will provide feed for the
mill for many months and favorable
smelter contracts insure good profits.
Electric power will be installed to run
the mill and additional machinery, in
Guiding jigs and tables will be placed
at the same time. The wagon road
from the mill to the railroad has been
greatly improved, and it is reported
that railroad officials are considering
"a branch up Pine creek.

THE WEST HUNTER.
Plans for Developing a Highly Prom.
isina Prospect Near MullanL

"hAtIdIl
Having practically completed the
extensive surface investigation which
resulted in proving the vein for $500
feet and indicating that the ground of
the company covers it for probably
5000 feet, the management is now
planning to start permanent work that
will explore the vein at depth. c. r
10. Merriam, mining engineer of this
city, visited the property the first of
the week to determine where this
work should be done and 1t is EXPECT
ed that a contract to drive a crosscut
will be let in a few days. The West
Hunter lies between the Hunter and
Morning and is contiguous to the In
Dependence Gettysburg group. The
discovery has attracted much atten-
ton and the outlook for it's develon-
ment is exceedingly encouraging.

IDAHO GOLD PRODUCTION.

Gates Large Business.
Something of the magnitude that the
mining industry of southern Idaho is
reaching a be CLEANED from the fact
that the shipment of bullion from the
United States assay office in Boise this
month has already reached $140,0 600,
says the Capital News. This shipment
of bullion, which Is sent at certain in
tervals to the mint at Denver, under
heavy guard, included practically the
receipts of both August and Septem-
Der. Most of it was the output of
good producing mines in southern
Idaho and the balance from prospect
ors, a great number of which have
been in the hills this summer taking
out some good ore. The gold receipts
at the assay office this summer have
been far greater than for many years
and the steady increase each month
as the summer advanced shows that
there has been a back to the mine"
movement. Properties which were on
ly partially developed a few years ago
when mining activity ceased, have
been revived and with but a small ex-
penditure have been put on a profit
basis. New mines have been
opened up which have made a good
showing in several of the old districts
and are paying their own development
expenses.

With this large tonnage in sight and
the certainty that IL viii show rapid
increase with the development that Is
now in progress in that rich section
it seems certain that the o.-W. H. q
N. company will extend a branch from
the North Fork up Beaver creek next

pense in connection with its construc-
ton. and the tonnage that it would re-

The WAR AND THE CIRCUS,

The war abroad, not content with
injuring commerce and involving all
sorts of possibilities of serious ma
tional troubles, is pressing hard upon
that standard American institution,
the circus. BY reason Of the war the
wild animal trust is bottled up in Ger
many and unable to scour the jungles
for the king OF beasts and the man

behemoth from the turbid rivers to
make an American holiday. If it keeps
up the prospects are that the pious

But circus without the rhinoceros
and the behemoth Of holy writ and the
Observation-Disclosures that is-and a
lures and smell Of the menagerie
wouldn't be a satisfactory circus. We
would miss the girafe-the only one in
captivity-and long to see again our
old friend and acquaintance the sacred

an extra dime for the fearful pleasure
of seeing the animals fed raw and

A. to Sermons.

Every sermon preached asks too
much: no preacher Of a sermon Is as
good as he says others should pc; ne
exaggerates, and the success OF MS
mission would not accomplish the good
he says it would. Every sermon
preached about truth Is subject to the
criticism that it is not exactly truth
full. When a man gets q pen IN his
hand he is apt to write one Of two
things; love letter or sermon; ana
whether he writes q sermon or love
letter, he will exaggerata. Put q man
before an audience. and his nfst
thought is to preach q sermon. Fathers
and mothers, in sermons to their chill
dren, demand that they be better than
children ever were. or ever Will Do.
Wives, in sermons to husbands, expect
impossible things. Whoever preacnes
sets pace in talk that can not be pos
sibiy reached in actual conduct; so 1t
is not strange that the sermon IS be-
coming distasteful. Monthly.

Some men are that way. They see

There is neither usefulness or pleas

those people are as narrow as the

their faults are more serious than
those they squint thru magnifying
lenses to discover. They are not dan
