As Seen in the East.
The following interesting comment
on the smelling situation in the Coeur
d'Alene district is taken from the last
issue of the Engineering and Mining
Journal of New York
Interesting news comes from the
Occur d'Alene where the relations
between the miners and smelters, es-
pecially the A. S, & r. company, have
been simmering for a long time The
mines of this district have heretofore
been tied up with long running con-
tracts under which they have been
restive. The pros and cons Of this
controversy need not now be discuss
ed. The complaint was directed cher
ly against the A. S. & K. company
but there was competition in the dis
trict by other smelters--the Interna.
tional, Ohio & Colorado, United States
and Pennsylvania. However, the
terms offered by them have not diff
fered greatly OF course, the Occur
dAlene ore has always been regarded
by the smelters as a marginal ore.
that is, one out of which they should
make profit--whereas in some other
districts lead ores have been taken at
a loss, the profit being earned from
other classes of ore. Nevertheless.
there are some features in the Coeur
dAlene contracts that have always
seemed to us to be Objectionable. Es-
pecially so is the arrangement where
by the price for lead is based upon a
certain arbitrary figure, the difference
between that price and the market
price, when the latter is In excess
being divided between miner and
smelter on the basis of $3.50.
Break With the Trust.
anyway the dissatisfaction of the
mining interests expressed itself no.
long ago when certain stockholders OF
the Federal Mining & Smelling com
pany brought suit against the A. 8 2.
X. company for annulment OF con-
tract. This year the Hercules CON
tract expired and the owners OF that
mine refused to renew. Through the
; Tamarack & Custer company. in which
they are interested, they have ac-
quired the old smeltery at Northport
wash, which they are rebuilding. and
hereafter they propose to do their
own smelling there.
J NOW comes the report, officially
verified, that the Bunker Hill e. Sul-
hvan company is going to do it's own
smeiting. Whether this will be in the
Coeur d'Alene or at some place on the
Pacific Coast has not yet been deter
mined. The controlling interests of
thls company have had experience in
smelling, being formally concerned in
the Tacoma Smelling company, which
they sold out to the American SmeIt-
ers Securities Co.
Bunker Hill Well Advised.
This Is more formidable insIrrec-
tion in the lead smelling business than
the A. s. & r, Co has ever had to face.
Both the Herculese and the Bunker
Hill & Sullivan companies possess am
pie resources and are well able to car
ry through anything they undertake.
The Bunker Hill & Sullivan company
is sure to be well advised, both tech
nically and commercially. 1t is to be
hoped that the Herculese people also
will get the right kind of assistance.
1t is but natural that these big mining
companies should want to do their own
smelling. That they are taking steps
in that direction is an interesting and
healthful development"

Will Erect Mill.

In the meantime plans have been
prepared for the erection of a mill
which will be undertaken this fall
if the development in the immediate
future proves as satisfactory as the
management confidently contemplates.
The plans of the company in reality
involve the erection of two mills, the
first one to be of 200 tons capacity and
designed especially for the treatment
of carbonate ore, of which large bod
les have been disclosed on the several
levels of the mine In general terms
this mill will simply be equipped to
crush the ore to the desired mesh and
recover the values from tables. When
the Development of sulphide ore on the
lower levels has reached a point that
justifies it another mill will be erected
to treat it, and it is expected that the
earnings from the carbonate mill will
take care Of the expense of its con-
struction. The tables and other ma
chnery in the first mill will be util-
lied in the second The mill will be
located adjacent to the tracks of the
o. w. r. & N. short distance below
Enaville, near the old Kingston sta
| tion.

HYPOTHEEK TRAMWAY
CONTRACT AWARDED
TRAMWAY AND MILL MAY BE
ERECTED THIS FALL-NEAR-
ING ORE SHOOT ON 100.

The Hypotheke mining company has
entered into a contact with the Riblet
Tramway company, of Spokane, for all
the material, except lumber, and for
the construction of the aerial tramway
to connect the mine with the mill
which 1t is planned to erect at an early
date, The contract is q conditional
one depending upon the showing Of
ore developed on the HOO level. All
preliminary expense has now been paid
in connection with the proposed tram
way, and the second payment is to be
made on November /. In accepting
this payment on that date the tram
way company agrees to have the
tramway completed withing four
months thereafter. If, however, the
payment is not made on that date
the tramway company is not obligated
to accept it until March /, when it will
be accepted and the tramway cons
structed as stated above.
The Hypotheek has now secured IT,
tie to every foot of the right of way
for the tramway from the mine to the
mllsite, a distance of about three and
half miles,

Barnard's Show Window.
The most beautiful specimens OF
native silver resting like fragments OF

They are from the 900 level OF the
Caledonia mine.

Improvement on the 100.

Drifting on the 100 level has now
been extended something more than
100 feet east and about 40 feet west
The east drift is improving and shows
evidence of approaching the ore shoot.
The vein filling is mostly quartz, ex-
idized iron and manganese, with low
values in lead uniformly distributed.
The entire face also shows an average
value of aboue two and one half per
cent copper, and this is regarded ver-'
significant, as the same values were
found near the end of the ore shoot
in the upper levels. The showing here
is pronounced better than at the cor
responding point on the 900 level; in
fact, the showing is so favorable that
a report from the mine yesterday sta
ted that shoot of galena ore might
be expected at any time.

The Northport SmeIter.

Just as many men as can be work
ed to advantage are employed re.
modelling the Northport smelter and
1t is expected that it will be in readi-
ness by the first of the year. Jerome
j. Day, manager of the Tamarack e.
Custer, is in charge of the work at
Northport and 1t is understood that he
will remain the executive head of the
company when the plant Is
in operation. 1t was reported this
week that about the first of November
of ore from the Hercules
would be diverted to the Northport
plant in order to accumulate sufficient
to start on by the time the plant is
ready. 1t Is estimated that at least
$4,000 tons should be on hand Two
new lead furnaces are being built, and
the three large and last built copper
furnaces are to be retained 1t has
been reported that the Days are ne
gotiating for copper properties in the
Chewelah district the product from
which will be treated at the North
port plant. other copper properties in
the vicinity will find a market for theiy
ore there. There are also lead mines
in the vicinity which would naturally
send their product there, but 1t is un-

THE NEW ROOSTER

"The old White Rooster is dead"
said Black Hen, putting her head
through the bars of the pigpen.
'You don't say SO" replied Madam
Pig. did he die natural death?"
she inquired.
NO." said Black Hen, "he was too
old and tough to eat This morning
when the hens opened their eyes he
was on the floor of the henhouse with
his toes in the air.
Where will they bury him?" asked
Madam Pig.
Il do not know" replied the Black
Hen, as she ran to group of hens she
saw not far away.
"The master took him away" said
one, "and now wonder who will take
his place.
He was here a long time and he
crowed beautifully" said Specified
Hen. ut will be hard to find his
equal"
That afternoon the farmer came
into the yard and from under his arm
flew a rooster. He was black, with
red and yellow mixed in his feathers,
and he was young. As the hens gazed
at him he seemed to feel the import
ance Of his position, and he strutted
through the yard without turning his
head. When he reached the pigpen
he flew to the top of the fence and,
spreading out his wings, turned
around that the sun might fall upon
his gorgeous colors.
isn't he handsome?" said Black
Hen.
He isn't SO large as White Rooster"
said Speckled Hen. Then the rooster
crowed three times Madam Pig
looked up at him.
"He crows WE'LL" she remarked to
her mate, "but / am afraid he is too
young"
The rooster spread his wings again
and flew to the ground.

An afternoon gown of messaline silk,
pictured here, is one of many that the
amateur seamstress may undertake
with assurance that success is easy.
The summer afternoon dress is about
the most satisfying of all the clothes
whereWithal we are clothed and any
number of them have been designed
(of the lovely fabrics made for wear
In the good old summer time) that are
easy to make.
In the dress pictured the skirt is
straight and short and full. 1t has a
high waist line with a shocked or
shirred panel at the front and single
box plaits disposing of the fullness at
the sides and back. Two plated
ruffles extend about the skirt near
the bottom and at the hip line, but
they terminate at the front panel on
each side.
A loose, plain blouse of chiffon in
the same color as the dress with
Dutch neck has a narrow knife plait-
ing of the messaline festooned across
the front A short jacket of the mes
saline is decorated with small buttons
and these and the odd sleeves with
turnback cuffs, are forceful little items
in the very good style of this gown.
The sleeves are full and confined near

the shoulder with a band of narrow
knife plating.
A frill of lace about the neck and
long tie of narrow ribbon with border
of white complete the dress.
Summer afternoon gowns of voile
or crepe, and fine lingerie gowns are
very smart worn with bright colored
coates of taffeta or crepe or a mes
saline silk lined with thin satin. The
surplice waist appears in many varia-
tons in afternoon gowns. A COM
bination Of the eton jacket and sur
plice waist effect is novel; the sur
plice ending in sash ends at the back
A blouse and girdle cut in one is one
of the happiest suggestions for the
afternoon gown. To pick out the UNI
usual and at the same time the simple
effects for afternoon dresses is to be
sure of success in style.
The three-tiered skirt in which the
fiounces are set together is another
good idea for the afternoon dress. 1t

In line with the fad for black and
white wide girdle is made of ribbon
showing alternate stripes of white
satin and black velvet. 1t is fastened
at the front under shallow loop of
the ribbon, ornamented by row of COW
cred velvet buttons. Such belt looks
well with black and white striped
skirts or all white. Or it may be
worn with frocks in gay colors where
it serves to tone down the brilliant
but fashionable shades.
A short neck ruff is made of black
satin ribbon having a narrow white
border striped with black 1t is sewed
to band of narrower black satin rib
bon in full triple box plaits The edges
of the plaits are caught together to
form the ruche A bow and ends of
plain black satin ribbon finish the

A bag of black and gold brocaded
ribbon is sewed to a gilt frame that
opens out, at the top. 1t is finished
with black silk tassel pendent from
the bottom and suspended by short
loops of narrow satin ribbon. This is
one Of the prettiest of many new bags.
Hosiery, shoes, handbags and purses
have all swung into the black and

white having crossbar in black, in
small checkerboard design, in stripes
and polka dots. Shoes employ black
and white feathers combined in about
equal proportions or are in all black.
