THE PARAGON.

Small Force Utilized in Operating
Mine and Mill.
l.. w. Stedman, manager of the Par
agon, above Murray, was in the city
the first Of the week on business con
nected with his ore contract, his ship
ments being zinc. He reports the con
dition of the mine most satisfactory
and he contemplates extending thf
shaft, which is now down so feet, to a
depth Of 200 feet. He expects this tc
show much larger ore shoot, as at
the present depth the shoot Is steadily
widening. The Black Horse mill
which is under lease to the Paragon
Is doing excellent work separating the
lead and zinc. and makes an 85 per
cent recovery. The mill has a daily
capacity of 100 tons and car of zinc
concentrates is turned out about every
twelve days, concentrates that will
average about 4S per cent zinc. BY
careful management and utilizing ev-
cry mans time to the best advantage.
Mr.. Stedman manages to keep the
mine and mill in operation with a total
force of seven men.

Up to the time of going to press this
week there have been no reports OF Jail
breaks about the courthouse, but Of
course the week is not over and there
may be some dissatisfaction among the
prisoners which may cause a walkout
at any time. 1t is reported, however,
that the regiment of sleuths has been
reduced, which means little saving to
the taxpayers and will help some, while
the city election being over it will no
doubt give the regularly employed
deputies and the sheriff more time to
devote to the duties of the Office.

THE SILVER CABLE.
Wallace Man Visits the Property and
Makes FIatterine Report.

A. II. Fox, of the firm Of Surdival d
Fox, mining brokers, visited the Silver
Cable last week and gives most in
teresting account Of what he saw. In
No. 2 or the intermediate tunnel the
ore shoot is 2S0 feet in length and
ranges from one to five feet in width
of zinc ore, much Of 1t of shipping
grade. There is little lead, but it is
unimportant compared with the zine
The raise that will connect the lower
tunnel with No. 2 has been extended
about 140 feet and has about 26O To
go. 1t was started in ore of practically
the same grade as that in the tunnel
above, and the ore still continues, but
1t was found too hard to make good
headway in so the raise Is now being
made in the hanging wall alongside
the ore. The wagon road was well
advanced when Mr.. Fox was at the
mine and Is probably almost compIet
ed now.

THE TERRiBLE-EDITH.
Two Cars Have Been Shipped and
Two More Are on the Dump.

Reports from Murray are to the eff
feet that Charles Conn and sons who
are working the Terrible Edith under
lease. have two cars of ore ready for
shipment and the ore will be moved as
soon as the difficulties between the
leasers and owners of the property
are settled, which is expected to be
al an early date. The Conns have al
ready shipped two ears that averaged
better than 40 per cent zinc and which
melted from $500 to $500 of which
royalty of % per cent was paid to the
owners.

THE CARLISLE.
A Carload of Ore Now at Bum Station
Ready for Shipment.

Leasers on the Carlisle, which Is
owned by the Ray-Jefferson company.
now have a car of zinc ore loaded at
Bum station, on Nine Mile, and 1t Is
expected that arrangements will soon
be effected with a smelter to receive
the ore; in fact it Is stated that nego-
tiations have now practically been
closed and the car will soon be in
transit. The mine is located ON Beav-
er creek and 1t was found that II could
be hauled over the hill to Bum on the
Northern Pacific and save about 50
cents per ton over the down hill haul
to Prichard on the North Fork branch
The rate to Bum is IS per ton and that
to Prichard Is $4 but at PricharG
there is an extra charge by the rail-
road of $3.50 per ton for the branch
haul, while there is no extra charge
for the Nine Mile branch. 1t is said
that the Carlisle has almost another
car on the dump and that there Is lots
of ore in sight in the mine.

THE OLD VETERAN.
Directors Hold Regular Monthly Meet

ina-May Add Another Shift.
At the meeting of the directors of
the Old Veteran Mining Company last
Monday evening Manager M. ]. Far
rell reported that the contractor had
extended tunnel No, 3 38 feet during
the month of April, which under the
circumstances was very satisfactory.
Considerable delay was caused on ac-
count of smoke, and to overcome this
the company this week had delivered
600 feet of air pipe, together with q
gasoline engine and blower, which
when installed will remove any cause
for delay in driving the tunnel. The
matter of adding another shift is be-
ing considered by the directors and
will probably be done. At the close Of
the month the crosscut was 428 feet
in length, leaving approximately 275
feet to be run to reach the vein.
AS soon as the snow disappears con-
siderable surface work will be done
which may have considerable bearing
on the plans for underground develop
ment.
The secretary of the Old Veteran
company states that the entire issue of
900 shares was over subscribed
within sixteen days, and applications
for stock are stlll coming in from dist
ant points.

lit is known that they with other min
! ing men of the district have gone into
the subject of smelling their own ores
pretty thoroughly. The idle plants at
Newport and Ponderay have been in
Investigated. and while neither is desir-
ably located to handle the ores of this
district. and perhaps deficient in other
respects, 1t is pointed out that they
could be used until a plant could be
constructed convenient to mines and
adapted to Coeur d'Alene ores. 1t is
known that the matter of building a
smelter in this district has received
serious consideration, and 1t Is pos
sible that break with the Guggen-
helms would at once start action in
that direction.

that the Bunker Hill & Sullivan may

1t is estimated that the Stewart

which added to the net profits shown
above will bring the total for the year

TO FEED THE FRENCH
Chamber of Deputies Takes Further
Steps to Care for Civil
Population.

PARIS. August 1.-THE chamber of
deputies has passed a bill carrying an
appropriation of 120,000.000 francs
($24,O00 ,OOO) to be used in the purchase
of wheat and -four for feeding the
civil population. The limit of such
purchases is fixed at 209.000,000 francs.
The bill authorizes projects under
the control of the minister of COM
merce to requisition wheat and flour in
France, and empowers the minister of
commerce to make purchases in the
colonies or abroad and to distribute
supplies according to the needs. The
measure also creates an advisory COM
mittee.
The new undersecretary of war, Jos.
Thiery, who is called minister of sup
plies" speaking in favor of the bill,
frankly admitted that there had been
waste and disorganization in purchas-
ing army supplies, but he assured the
chamber that reorganization was well
under way.
An attempt by the socialists to inject
rider creating government mo-
nopoly of grain was defeated by vote
of 1854 to 1873.

owed the woman board bill and had
borrowed small sums from her from time
to time. telling her that when he died
she could get money for his body from a
medical college.
The coroner told the woman that under
the law he could not give her the body.
1t is probable that it will be turned over
to the state anatomical board if no one
claims it for proper burial.
