MAYFLOWER COMPANY
INSTALL COMPRESSOR
BUILDING IN READINESS FOR MA.
cHlNERY-GooD SHOWING
OF ORE IN TUNNEL.

The Mayflower Mining company
which is operating about four miles up
Nine Mile, is arranging for more rap
Id development The management is
installing a power plant and expects
to have the same in operation within
la few weeks. The compressor building
mas been erected and the foundation
for the compressor has been complet-
ed and is now ready to receive its
load, which will be placed in position
at once. The machinery will consist
of Sullivan WG-3 compressor 10x1O,
and a Sullivan DR-6 mounted hammer
drill complete. The connection from
he compressor plant to the point of
cpeiation will be 1000 feet and the air
pipe connections to cover this distance
will be 2-inch pipe.
Ore in Upper Tunnel.
An attractive ore body was exposed
in the middle tunnel of this property
several years ago, and it was this
pleasing disclosure that warranted the
expense of the lower tunnel, which will
the property 800 feet deeper.
The portal of the lower tunnel will be
directly on the line of the Northern
Pacific which runs to the Success mill.
The showing that has been made in
the upper level justifies the prediction
that the extension of the lower tunnel
will make important developments
which will assure the future of the
property.

THE SNOWSHoE.
Ore of Good Grade in Vein Running

North and South.
Paul Lucia, president and manager
of the Snowshoe Mining company, was
in the city yesterday He reports a
continuation of the ore shoot that was
struck in the main drift some time ago
and upon which crosscut is being run
to the north. This has been extended
now more than 100 feet and in that
distance the ore varies from 8 inches
to 4 feet in width. The ore is of ex =
cellent grade, and while the course of
the shoot is rather puzzling, the show
ing is nevertheless highly encourag-
ing. The Snowshoe lies west Of and
adjoining the Snowstorm, and it has
frequently been reported that the lat
ter company was endeavoring to gain
control of it, but there is nothing in the
situation at present to indicate a nave
Of that kind unless it may be found in
the heavy buying of Snowshoe on the
Spokane exchange yesterday. Twen-
ty-four thousand shares are reported
to have changed hands and the day
closed with an offer of cents for any
part of 100000 shares

erty and Reports Progress.
The long crosscut that is being run
Jointly by the Bullion and Copper
Chief companies has now been ex-
tended about 900 feet and good pro-
gress continues to be made. 1t is es-
timated that $500 feet will have to be
run to reach the vein. There has been
a slight shortage of water for power
for the compressor, but steps are be-
ing taken to remedy this and it is not
anticipated that there will be any SER
ious shortage during the coming dry
season. A blind lead was cut about
300 feet back which shows low values
in copper and fully justifies explora-
ton, which will probably be undertake
en- when the crosscut is completed. 1t
is regarded as probable that this is
the Eagle vein.
Mr.. Taylor stated that in coming in
from the Bullion he made a closer
study of the immediate section, with
the result that he is rather of the
opinion that the Bullion and Reindeer
Queen are on the same lead He said
that this is the fixed opinion Of Curly
Crawford, manager of the Reindeer
Queen, who says he has traced it be-
ween the two properties.

Work in the Moonlight is now west
lof the crosscut and drifting toward
the Hercules. The showing as de-
|scribed could hardly be better without
being commercial ore. A little galena
is encountered, but nothing that could
be called commercial ore has been
found. The face of the drift is about
1000 or 1900 feet from the Hercules
end line. On the east end of the Moon
light there remains fully 1000 feet of
unexplored ground. With this large
amount of virgin ground, much conf

WALLACE, IDAHO, THURSDAY, JULY %, 1915
The DULUTH COMPANY
MAKES GOOD SHOWING
TO EXTEND cRosscuT TO MAIN
vElN-sPLENDlD FACILITIES
FOR DEVELOPMENT.

The contract to drive crosscut to
the main vein on the Duluth group
was completed last week, but fell a
little short of reaching the vein. How
ever, the management Is having the
contractor continue working by the
day until the vein is reached, which is
expected to be within 20 or 80 feet.
The crosscut will be about zoo feet in
length and should cut the vein at a
depth of 150 feet. The outcrop is ex-
|ceptionally favorable and it is ex-
pected that the crosscut will make O
showing that will justify the exten-
sion of the erosscut that has been
started 500 feet below to the vein, 9
distance of probably 500 feet, This
crosscut encountered blind lead
which looks very promising and which
will be developed at later date
Well Located Property.
The property of the Duluth Mining
company, consisting of five claims, is
situated on the east slope of Canyon
creek, opposite Mace. 1t is practical
ly surrounded by some of the great
mines of the district, the Federal at
Mace, the Frisco, the Hecla and the
Morning. 1t is located near the Nor
thern Pacific and O.-W r. & N. rail
roads and in easy access Of the power
line of the Washington Water Powe,
The steep mountain side
makes it possible to get about 1000
feet depth with a comparatively short
tunnel, and altogether presents ar

Had Councilman Gilmore been q
little better posted on parliamentary
procedure he would have settled the
question of who is to be the legal ad-
wiser Of the council last Monday eve
ming in spite Of the ruling of Mayor
Mowery that he was out of order. Be-
fore the mayor had recovered his
breath and regained his perpetual
smile, both of which left him when
the roll call disclosed the inglorious
man Gilmore addressed him and ask
ed if he would appoint any one of the
following attorneys, and If so the one
he selected would be confirmed: ]. A
man, J. f. Clyde, Lawrence e. Wor-
stell, Therrett Towles. Mayor Mowery
promptly replied that he would not
and thereupon Councilman Gilmore
made the following statement and
motion:

exists for the mayor and city council
to have the counsel and advice of
competent attorney, and in view of
the further fact that no regular city
attorney has been appointed and the
city Is without the services Of reg

city attorney, / move you that the
city Of Wallace employ Mr.. James e.

Mayor Mowery refused to entertain
the motion, ruling that 1t was out of
order Councilman Gilmore, instead
of appealing to the council from the
mayors ruling which would have Sc
cured vote on his motion, evidently
lost his bearings in the heat of the
occasion and said he would appeal to
the district court
Considerable confusion followed, in
the midst of which the council adj
journed until Friday evening, as had
been previously agreed.

Mayor Mowery's action was arbitrary

ANOTHER ASP|RANT FOR CITY ATTORNEY

MAYOR MoWERY APPOINTS H. FEATHERsToNE WHO FOLLOWS
THE FATE OF eEALE-elLMoRE's MOTION TO APPOINT
GYE CREATES coMMoT oN-coNsIpER PAVING

Has Mayor Mowery finally recog-
nized the futility of further attempt
.ng to force the confirmation of C. w
Beale as city attorney through the
council. or has Mr.. Beale rebelled and
refused to longer be made the goat
of the combination that is trying to
run the city through the subservient
mayor? Something unexpected must
have happened to suddenly change the
plans, for only two weeks ago the
mayor himself said that Boss Walker
would not consent to the appointment
of anyone but Mr.. Beale. In spite of
this positive statement, last Monday
evening Mayor Mowery, as the closing
act of a long session of the council
nominated Albert H. Featherstone for
city attorney. Councilman Mckay
moved that the nomination be con-
frmed, which motion was seconded by
Councilman Smith. The roll was call
ed and the nomination was rejected
by the following vote. Yes-McKay
and Smith; no-Beamer, Reeves, Gill
more, Underwood, johnson and Moi
son. The result must have been rather
disheartening to the mayor and any
thing but gratifying to Mr. Feather
stone. Mr.. Beale bravely stood for
three defeats, holding his own at the
ratio of 8 to 5. Mr.. Featherstone
loses the first round at the ratio of
to 6. VIII he come up for the second,
or will Boss Walker relegate him to
the rear as outclassed and try out an
other?
The people of this city are growing
very weary of the manner in which

UNPLEASANT FLAVORS,

The taste of fish, onions, turnips kraut, or in fact cabbage in any form if cooked. is most disagreeable and clings to the utensil cooked in even after the most careful washing with soap and water.
 Different housekeepers have from time to time given more or less la borious methods to get rid of the objectionable flavors, one advising that the cooking vessels be buried until sweet, the fresh earth being supposed to absorb the "undesir able" and purify the pots and pans for further use.
 After washing the utensils as us ual one woman takes vinegar and gives such az have been contaminated a good washing, then wipes with a dry cloth after rlnsing in clear wa ter. They are sweet and clean and any article of food can be cooked in them without fear of spelling with a faraway taste of onions. fish or any other rank tasting article of food that may have been cooked in it just previously.

3r understood.
 Children acquire knowledge best and retain 1t longest through the natural process of play. It has, therefore. always appealed to me as most sensible to try to impress upon their plastic minds any important matter through this means It is suggested that observation be taught through some form of amusement.
 A PLEASANT TIME.
 For instance, child may be talk en upon a walk and told that within given distance he was to look carefully around him as this given point was passed by you both and then report the various things he saw there after you had passed by. You can then compare notes and see who has observed the great- est number Two or more children will enjoy this pastime immensely and much rivalry-good natured riv- alry-will ensue. As competition will aid greatly in the enthusiasm necessary. it is not unwise to pro mote it so long as it can be restrain ed within the bounds of good temper.
 INDOOR TRAINING
 The same method can be followed within doors and the training be turned into a game to which you might give the title of Observation" The children can be told to give the rOntents of a box or a corner of a room or the mantel or the outlook from a window after one brief glance at it and then turning their back upon 1t.
 IL is amazing what results can be had from this training in rapid ob seryation. Once a young woman of IS years, whose father for sheer love of teaching, had trained her in this rapid survey method to such a de- gree that almost instantly upon entering a room she could give you in detail it's entire furnishing!

How to Keep Young and Attractive

If cleanliness is next to Godli- ness" it is certainly also first sid' to beauty and health. and while the inference may sound insulting. it is nevertheless perfectly true that not enough attention is given to the bath in this hurry rushing age of ours, says writer in Seattle pa- per A daily plunge and dab with cold cream will not accomplish absolute cleanliness There must be continued scrubbings and rinsing5 .nd some attention 10 special baths
 When it is considered that two pint. of waste matter are thrown off daily through the sweat glands of . healthy body and that these same little glands help to maintain an eQuable temperature of the body, it will be understood how necessary it is that the skin should be kept scrupulously clean so that the glands may not become clogged There is no danger, as many suppose, that frequent bathing destroys the oils of tho skin. It is impure soaps that do this, but on the contrary, bath ing with rub-down- afterward by increasing circulation induces the oils to flow more freely.
 TEMPERATURES OF BATHS
 For the bath ordinary the water should be tepid, or at the tempera ture of the room, which may be fol lowed by a slightly colder shower after a thorough abusing with clear tepid water to remove every vestige of soap. A coarse but soft towel is the best for drying purposes. Only the most hardened skins can safely stand friction with the harsh Turkish towels that are sometimes recom- mended. The best soap is white castle, which contains less lye than most soaps, and, at that, it is bet ter to shave the soap into the bath or to make father rather than to

use it directly on the skin.
 The warm bath, temperature % to 9S degrees Fahrenheit, causes a gradual reaction, which brings the blood to the surface and. unless condition, is the only safe bath.
 Hot baths, which means with the water at temperature of los de grees Fahrenheit, or cold, in which the temperature is from 50 to 65 de grees, have violent and opposing eff fleets upon the system, and should not be indulged in except at physi- clans orders. The cold bath is sup posed to act as a tonic, and is in reality very powerful one, driving the blood from the surface and af- fecting the whole nervous system, but unless reaction occurs quickly. which means that the blood rushes back to the surface, the effect is collaboration and is apt to be eX- tremely harmful.
 Anyone of average health can safe ly take baths of temperature from 85 to 95 degrees. followed by show CT of water at 65 degrees, or can gradually accustom herself to a cold shower by turning on the cold water faucet and shutting off the warm water gradually, so that the water grows colder by degrees. The cold shower should never be taken at night, as it would be apt to be too stimulative and to keep one awake.

Teach Children to Observe

l. is an established fact that any powers We may have. be they muscu. lar or mental lose their strength through disuse. The sense of sight smell. touch. taste and hearing are capable of amazing development. through concentration and use.
 The Indian forced to depend for protection upon sight and hearing. developed these two powers to re markable degree. T he Japanese are noted for their keenness in differ entiating between odors. The blind, deprived of the sense of sight. are highly developed in the senses Of touch and hearing. while the deal. dumb and blind are almost physical ly developed in their sensitiveness to touch and feeling.
 TEACHING CAUTION.
 Children come into what is called the mental possession" of their various senses by degrees. Until t.is mental or conscious possession takes place their senses are more than half instincts. Children see, simply and directly, and with their minds fixed upon the object that has attracted them. while all other ob- jects surrounding it are in almost total oblivion.
 This peculiar direCtness on the child's part is responsible for large share of the accidents which befall them-accidents resulting in harm to themselves as well as to others and in dicidental breakage It is. therefore. something that should call forth your most tender maternal solicitude and neither rebuke nor anger His Whimpering. "I didn't see" or "I didn't think" are so much the truth that they may be accepted as the whole truth and nothing but the truth" by his discriminating parent.

TOILET ESSENTlALS.
q . q ' o . o . q q |

It is not simply matter of clean Illness and daintiness to take care of your washcloths, sponges, towels, etc. It is matter of hygiene and personal health.
 The above mentioned articles are germ collectors. That is certain. The best thing we can do is to render them as impervious to infection al possible by taking good care of them.
 First, your washcloth. After using it, rinse it thoroughly first in hot water, then cold water As wash cloth Is generally woven loosely, 1t can be pulled out of shape. There fore, see to it that it is pulled into shape before putting away.
 In the last rinsing put little dis infectant. Then wiring it out as well as you possibly can, and hang 1t upon an airy rack in the sunlight. If you can put it in current of air, so much the better. Do not throw 1t down on the stand in a wet heap snd do not hang 1t on the rim of the bath-tub. Put it where the air can get to it. Anything that comes in oUCu persistent COUtdCl WIlu your face so many times day should be thoroughly aired and sterilized.
 A sponge is still harder to handle It seems to have particular affin- ity for soap and is exceedingly diff ficult to rinse. And if the soap is left in 1t it becomes perfect hotbed for germs. and rots away inside, becoming smelly and unpleas- ant.
 It also should be hung upon hook somewhere where the air and sun can reach it. All the water should Do squeezed out of 1t, and the dis Injecting bath is always good.
 The towels should be hung up flat, not folded again. after using.
 Keep your own toilet articles to yourself Do not let others use yours. and do not use the cloths sponges, etc, of the other members of your family.

MOTHERS BECOME GREAT.

In governing your children there is one thing worse than being wrong, and that is in being in | hurry.
 Impatience, if joined to great con- scientiousness, results in tyranny, cruelty and lovelessness.
 There is no equipment for child raining possible without self-sacri- flee. Unless you renounce yourself, your laziness. your stubbornness and your pride, and unless you take up your cross daily, you cannot be of service to the children.
 It is good to tell your child what is right, that is, pretty good. but not much It is infinitely better to manage so that he himself dis cerns for himself and by lis own experience what is right.
 The object of governing children is to develop them, to make grow their moral sense, their judgment. their self-control. It is not to make them toe the mark, and be nice children and not bother mamma.
 This is why good mothers become great women; for to train children rightly is the very best training in the world for the trainers.
 No other business is harder than that of being wise mother and yet with love it becomes easy.

INCOME AND WAR
 TAXES NOW DUE

Income tax statements for 1914 must be in the hands of the deputy collector of internal revenue in Ia coma by March l this year, instead of, as was the case last year, being filed with the agent here by that time. This is the announcement made by President R. C. Wood of the First National bank. who is looking after the income taxes for the government in Fairbanks.
 Every person who has an income of 5000 year or over, must fill out one of these statements, even though he or she is exempt for more than that amount. Failure to get the statement to Tacoma by March will make a person, who is within it's meaning, subject to legal prosecu- tion by the government.
 This means that a person in Fair banks or vicinity who Is subject to paying an income tax. must send in his statement sometime this month in order to be sure that it
