MINING NEAR MEDlMoNT.
Report That Wardner People Are Me-
qotiatna for Property.

9otiatln9 TOT TFoPSTAJ'
Carl johnson, of Medimont, was III
the city last week. He owns a very
promising group of copper claims
about two miles southeast of Medi-
nont upon which he has done consid-
erable development work with en-
couraging results. The fine surface
showing has some values in copper
and fully warrants carrying out the
development work that is planned. II
lis stated that Wardner people are
ready to take hold Of the group, in
corporate a company do certain work
that will probably prove the value OF
the property and that Mr. Johnson
will probably close a deal with them.
If so one of the conditions of the
agreement is to install a compressor
at once.
There are quite a large number OF
mining locations in the vicinity OF
Medimont and Lane upon which con-
siderable work has been done, anG
while no ore Of commercial value has
been found up to this time, 1t is re-
garded as a promising field, and pros
pectors and miners Of wide experience
continue to hold and work them to the
extent of their means.

iod of Five Years.

A meeting of the stockholders of the
Jlaho Giant Mining company was hello
in Spokane the first of the week, when
the property of the company was
bonded to Thomas Bremen, manager
of the Hunter mine, for 100000. The
terms of the bond require that work

that $4,000 shall be paid at the end
of three years. $4,000 at the end OF
the fourth year, and $4,000 at the END
of the fifth year.
The Idaho Giant is located above
Mullan, on the south side Of the river
and adjoins the Carbonate Hill on III.
east and covers q parallel vein. Con
siderable development work has beer
done on the property, but that whici
shows the best results is a short tun-
mel from Silver creek in which consid
erable ore Of good grade Is exposed u
a highly promising vein. 1t is lead
silver ore, some of which is of ship
ping grade. 1t is stated that the con
troll of the Idaho Giant Is owned by tn

Oscar NordQuist returned this week
from Latouche island, Alaska, where
he has been engaged for almost a yea
In designing and constructing a flota-

ture for handling the ores economical
ly and recovering the values. Th'
company owns vast deposit Of low
grade copper ore on the island near
the coast and in easy access of the
mill Mr.. Nordquist was called hom'
on account of the poor health OF his
wife and his stay here will depend up
on her condition. He has important
interests here that require his atten

MURRAY COMES BACK.
Pioneer Drill and Compressor Man
Visits the District.

S. G. Murray, district representative
of the Ingersoll- Rand company with
Headquarters at Seattle, was in the
city this week, this being his first visit
for several years. For many years he
made Salt Lake City his headquarters
and made frequent visits to this Sec
tion. He Is now district manager for
Washington, British Columbia and
Alaska the latter territory occupying
most of his attention. 1t Is now almost
90 years since Mr., Murray made his
first trip into the Occur d'Alenes rep
resenting the same company which
was then known as the lngersoll- Sar-
geant company. That was in 1895,
when he made his first sale OF drills
lere the purchaser being the Tiger
Mining company, Of which +. K. Cul-
! ertson, of Spokane, was the manager,
At that time the Rand drill was the
chief rival of the Ingersol. In later
Nears the two combined and the In.
garsol- Rand company, largely
through Mr. Murray's efforts, has
built up large business in this dis
trict, including drills, compressors and
hoists.

THE CARLISLE.
New Owner Leases Property to Group
of Practical Miners.

New Owner Leases Property TO 1roup
of Practical Miners.
The Carlisle claim, which was pur.
chased a few weeks ago by the Ray
jefferson company, was leased this
week to Angina brothers and others
who will proceed at once to work the
property on a basis of rs per cent roy
atty to be paid to the owners. Tht
Carlisle is developed by two tunnels
on the vein, in both of which there is
q continuous showing Of zinc ore oi
good grade. These tunnels are hardly
100 feet apart, the lower one being
about 1SO feet in length and the upper
about 10 feet less. Not much deptf
is gained, but they prove an ore shoe
fully 300 feet in length. 1t Is the pur'
pose of the leasers to use hand jif
which with the clean ore that can b.
hand sorted they expect to be able t.
get out good product Of shipping ore
They are all practical miners OF IONS
experience, hard workers, which corn
bined with the high price of zinc VII
probably enable them to make a fai
profit

THE FRISCO.
important Strike Made in Making
Raise From 22o0 Level

important Strike MADE IN MAKING
Raise From 1900 Level.
A raise that is being run from the
22OO level in the Frisco last week
broke into body Of lead and zinc ore
which is described as being about 8
feet in width and of high values in
both metals. The extent of the strike
has not been determined, but 1t is be-
ieVed that it will prove to be a large
body. Old time miners who worked
in the Frisco in the days when 1t was
one of the big mines Of the district
have always stated, long before the
Federal took hold of the property, that
the Frisco was far from being work
ed out, and some have asserted that
they knew where large ore bodies had
been left The strike here referred to
indicates that these old-time miners
knew what they were talking about.
The 2200 level is in reality only 1900
| feet below the collar of the shaft, the
levels being numbered from the upper
workings.
1t is reported that the Frisco will
start up about the middle of next
month, the new MILL which combines
flotation and magnetic separation,
having proved successful

WANT TO SEE THE BOOKS.
Alameda Stakeholder Asks Court foi
Order to Examine Them.


Theresa H. Lair, who states that she
is the owner of $1,000 shares of stock
in the Alameda Mining company, yes
terday brought an action in the dis
trict court in which she asks an order
permitting her to examine the books
of the Alameda company. Being ?
new stockholder she states that in or
der tu familiarize herself with the af-
fairs of the company she asked the
secretary Of the company, John Dolan,
to permit her to examine the books,
which request was refused. She there
fore asks the court to issue an order
requiring the secretary to give her ac-
cess to the books, and also requiring
the officers Of the company to call r
meeting of the stockholders. 1t is
presumed that this action is the out
growth of the suit now pending be-
tween the Alameda and Success COM

practically to the surface. This Is the
ore that is now being mined and there
is enough in sight to keep the mill go
ing for several years. Four hundred
and fifty feet below this level where
the vein has been cut from the bottom
of the shaft drifting Is going FORWARD
in both directions with most satisfac-
tory results. Only the wi dth OF an
ordinary drift is being taken out along
one wall, but it is under stood that
crosscuts have been made which show
the vein fully as wide and with an
equal showing of clean ore as In the
main working tunnel.
The Interstate Callahan is now
classed as the third greatest zinc mine
in the world, and the pr ediction Is
freely made by those familiar with its
great ore body that 1t will soon take
first place.

indications That Large and Rich Ore
Shoot Is Being Developed.


Shoot Is Being Developed.
The recent strike on the Sunset
Banner on Beaver. creek continues to
attract much attention. The first of
the week, D. L. McGrath, who is a
stockholder, brought down a chunk of
ore weighing 25 or 80 pounds which
may be seen at Garretts transfer Of
flee. 1t is clean zinc ore that will
probably run 60 per cent, with seams
of bright galena running through II
IN striking contrast with the dull col
orng of the zinc. This chunk is said
to be q fair sample of fully two feet
of ore This shoot has been followed
now for distance Of over 80 feet with
steady Improvement as the drift ad-
vances. The drift Is following the
footwall, and it is known that consd-
cradle ore is being left on the hang
ing wall side, but how much or the
width of the vein have not been de-
termined.
There are two parallel veins on the
property, probably $50 feet apart, on
both of which ore has been found, but
as the present work Is some 400 or SOC
feet from where these discoveries were
made it is not clear at this time in
which vein, north or south, the pres
ent fine showing is being made.
As an evidence Of the value placed
on the Sunset Banner strike by the
miner who made it, it may be stated
that he has just taken a contract t"
drive another so feet and will take all
his pay in stock of the company.

THE NORTH STAR.
Drift Seems to Be Passing Over a Big
Ore Shoot,

Ore Shoot.
The diabase dixie that cut diagonally
across the vein in the North Star has
now been cut through apparently and
there Is strong evidence that ore may
be found before the foot wall is reach
ed. The vein has shown considerable
lead since passing through the dixie,
and a few days ago while digging out
footing for a set of umbers galena
ore was encountered that 1t Is estim-
ated would carry Is per cent lead
From this 1t is believed that the tun-
mel is passing over an ore body. The
company is not in position financially
to undertake to sink now, otherwise a
shaft would be started at once. 1t Is
probable that the ore may come into
the face as depth Is gained. The Nortf
Star is located on Nine Mile, just this
side of Monarch.
