From Sam Tennal it is learned tina;
the crosscut that is being run from
the drift on the Silver Mountain lead
vein to cut a parallel vein which
shows good values In copper on the
surface is expected to reach the con-
tract and day. A large amount OF
water is now coming in through the

that the vein cannot be far away.
This crosscut is about 500 feet east Of

SNOWsTORM TAKESOVER
BANNER At TROY, MONT.
THAT is REPORT HEARD YES
TERDAY-FRED MCCORMICK
TO HAVE CHARGE.

Although no announcement has been
made to the stockholders of the com.
pany, 1t was learned yesterday that
the directors of the Snowstorm Min.
ing company are planning to take over
the Banner, a lead property heal Troy,
Mont, which has been in course OF
development by Leo G"reenough, man
ager of the Snowstorm, for several
years. What the Snowstorm would do
with the large surplus in the treasury
when work was suspended at Larson
has long been a matter of interesting
speculation. A circular letter from
the management stated that 1t was the
purpose to use 1t in acquiring other
mining property, but what particular
property If any was under considera-
ton has been merely a matter of con-
lecture. However, 1t was learned this
week that the Snowstorm holds an op-
ton on the Flynn group, lying north
of and adjoining the property OF the
Flynn Group Mining company, which
VIII expire on OCTOBER II unless the
first payment of $50, 900 is paid on or
before that date.
Acquire Additional Ground.
1t was learned yesterday that the
Banner company at Troy had recently
acquired about 200 acres of additional
ground, and the report was also heard
-
his week that Fred Mccormick, for
merly superintendent of the Snow
storm, is going to take charge of the
Banner, leads to the conclusion that
the news that the Snowstorm Is TO
take over the Banner is correct. A
few weeks ago Mr.. Mccormick was
rendered the position of superintend-
ent OF the National, but this later in
formation indicates that he is going
to stay with the Snowstorm. Horses
owned by the Snowstorm were ship
ped to Troy during the past week.

this city which he expects to have un-
der development before long. He WIS.,
tied Duluth, Kansas City and other
important centers and reports having
been successful in financing his en-
terprise, Asked regarding the U. s.
Copper, located in Sanders county
Montana, and which is being develop
ed by a Wallace company of which he
is manager, Mr.. Edwards said that the
work is progressing highly sa 'isfactor-
lily. Work has been discontinued in
the upper tunnel which disclosed a
fine shoot of high grade copper ore
and preparation is being made to
start a tunnel that will open the vein
at an additional depth of about $50
feet. AT this point the vein will be
reached by a crosscut of about 70
feet, from which the vein will be ex-
plored by drifting which Is expected
to find the ore shoot much larger than
above and with the same big values.
Necessary buildings are now about
completed at the site of the new tun-
and a new trail has been made
from there to connect with the wagon
road to Thompson. The trail is about
I miles long and the distance to
is IL miles. Supplies will
taken in for the winter and two

Peace Prevails in the Council

Behold, how good and how pleasant
1t Is for the brethren to dwell together
in unity" The last meeting of the
council was in marked contrast with
those held during the past few months,
In fact since the new administration
took over the government of the city.
Mayor and members were evidently at
peace with the world and with each
other, so far as surface indications
were concerned at least, and even the
erstwhile belligerent city clerk APP
peared to be in a more tractable mood
There was not a divided vote on n
question usbmitted, and there was nc
word or act to indicate other than
that the mayor and council were in
absolute harmony on all questions
concerning the conduct of the city's
affairs. Does this presage a perman-
ent peace in the municipal body, or is
II the quiet that frequently prevails
before a storm breaks?

WI 1GNIC0s
John Thomas Mcdonald, an is.
year-old boy, who was born at Mon.
arch, on Nine Mile, and whose parents
Mr.. and Mrs. Alex Mcdonald, still
reside there, has invented a nut lock,
n has made application for a United
States patent for the same. BY the
use OF this device a III may be u
ed upon a bolt at any point of its ad
Justment, and the lock can be remoy-
ed to permit changing the adjustment
OF the nut on the bolt. To use the
lock the bolt is provided with a lonei-
tudinal sic cut in it's threaded pOr-
tion, and through the nut Is a hole ex-
tending from the usual threaded hole
AT right angles to the outer face of the
nut. Through this hole is passed the
locking pin having an eye and a pair
or shanks tapering so that when driy-
en- through the nut into the slot in the
bolt they win spread, preventing the
pin from dropping out and holding he
nut firmly at any point on the bolt
The eye enables the nut to be easily
drawn out.

Is now employed at the Success mill
From childhood he has shown unusual
interest in machinery and mechanical
and while this little inven-
ton may not bring him fame and for
tune, 1t nevertheless shows that he has
original ideas and the faculty of
adapting them to practical use.

Reading of the minutes consumes
more time in the proceedings of the
council than considering reports of
committees and other matters that re-
quire discussion and elaboration. This
Is because the minutes are burdened
with a vast amount Of details which
properly should have no place in the
record, are of no value for future ref
erence and obscure the actual work OF
the council. The minutes of the coun-
ell are simply a written record of the
official acts of the body. They are not
supposed to be a stenographic report
OF what the mayor and every member
said on every matter that is discussed.
