Monarch Mine
Hauling Ore
HAVE LARGE SUPPLY NOW ON HAND
Are Hauling TO the River Preparatory TO Shipping
When Navigation Opens

The management of the Mon
arch mine has commenced haul
ing ore from the mine. Two
teams were put to work Sunday
and they are engaged in hauling
the ore from the mine TO the river
where it will be loaded ON barges
and either taken across the river
to the Milwaukee tracks or to
Occur dAlene to be shipped ON
some other road to the smelter.
The company has been at work
for over year getting orc out
ION the dump and have quite
quantity ready to ship. They
still have a crew at work getting
the ore out and will keep haul
ing as long as the weather and
roads will permit. The ore can
not be shipped until the river
opens up in the spring and by
that time the company expects to
have a large quantity of ore
ready for market.
The company which owns the
Monarch is practically a 81.
Maries concern. It's Offices are
located here and a large part or
The stock is owned by st. Maries
citizens, so the prospect that it
is soon to become a producer is
a source of great satisfaction TO
The people here.
That the mine has a good show
ing of high grade ore has been
on established fact for some time
but it, like most other mines on
The start, has been hampered by
4 lack of capital. A small crew
has been kept at work for over a
year now developing and for the
past few months getting out ore.
The men who have been doing the
work have so much faith i'm the
mine that they have been taking
heir pay for the most part i'm
stock and the prospect of being
sble TO realize something on their
Investment is doubly gratifying to
them.
10 have the Monarch become a
producer, shipping mine, means
much 10 the city Of ST. Maries and
The people as a whole regard
less of whether they own stock
in il. The mine is only a COM
partively short distance from the
city and will mean another indus
try and another payroll for the
city.

Charles George, the man who
murdered Christon at one OF
Branson's abandoned ware houses
ION Big Greek, above Herrick, will
mot pay the extreme penalty for
his crime. He was found guilty
of premeditated murder in the
district court at Wallace about a
year ago and was sentenced to be
hung but the state board of par
dons has commuted his sentence
to life imprisonment.
This was one of the most brutal
murders ever committed in the
state. Both George and his vic
tim were Bulgarians and had
worked together for Branson for
a long time and moreover were
bunk mates and ciums. George,
who had been in this county long
er, was a leader among the Bull
garians on the work and acted as
a sort of banker for the rest, kept
their time checks and assisted
them in cashing them. The log
ging Job had been completed and
the men paid off in checks.
Christoff was of a saving DISPOSE
ton and besides the large check
which he had received at the close
of the job, had money on deposit.
Most of the crew had gone out
and these two were the only ones
of the Bulgarians left.
According to the evidence at the
rial, George enticed Christon to
I deserted warehouse and, from
he appearance of the body, struck
linn from behind with some heavy
instrument. From the appear
ance i'm the ware house, Christofi
was only partially stunned and
made a hard fight for his life.
His body was found with rope
tied around the neck and fastened
to a post.
The body was discovered by ac
cident the next day and as George
Twas the last man seen with him
suspicion naturally fell upon him
and search for him was begun
The officers and the banks in the
nearby cities were notified anC
George was arrested at Missoula
while trying to cash Christon

John II. Martin of lIofstetter &
Martin returned Saturday from a
business trip to Wallace and
Jther points i'm the Occur d'Alene
mining district. He has just
finished a very successful stock
selling campaign for the Little
pittsburg mine. The company
which operates that mine had in
stalled machinery preparatory to
putting the mine on a shipping
basis and desired to sell treasury
took enough to pay for the ma
chinery and start the mine and
entered into a contract with Mr..
Martin to manage the campaign
or the sale of stock which he
brought to a successful issue.
The machinery has been in
stalled and the mine began ship
ping high grade ore Saturday.
The treasury stock has been with
drawn from the market and no
more will be offered for sale. Mr..
Martins scuccess i'm carrying

producing mines are being worked
to their utmost capacity and in
addition there is a large amount
of development work going on.
The price of ore is higher than it
has been for years and new
mines are being opened and de-
Neloped every day. The whole
mining country is booming and
everyone seems to be prosper

higher wages than they have for
years and all kinds of business is
correspondingly good. He says
that bank deposits in the district
have doubled in the last year,
which is good indication of gen
oral business conditions.

DR.. Briggs In
Serious COnROH

The many friends of Or. r. Z.
Briggs will be sorry to learn that
he is in a very serious condition.
He has been troubled with hem
orrhage of the bladder for TIE
past few days and the doctors de-
cided that an operation was ne
cessary. He was taken to the
st. Maries hospital Sunday for
that purpose.
The doctors found that he is
suffering from a cancer of the
bladder and that it had advanced
so far that an operation could
not be successfully performed.
They succeeded is stopping the
hemorrhage which gave him re-
lief but his condition is consid-
cred very serious.

Two Good Games

Several hundred students and
town people Witnessed two of the
most lively basketball games at
the high school gymnasium Fri
day night that have ever been
seen in st Mareis. The oppOs-
ing forces in the first game we're
the girls teams of the Occur d.
Alene and the st. Maries high
schools and in the second game
the boys teams representing the
same schools. The first game
was won by the visiting girls by
the score of II to 4. The con-
test, however, was not so one
sided as the score would indicate,
although the local girls we're out
classed in team work and basket
shooting.
The boys game also went to
the visitors, the score being %
to 26. In the first half every
hing favored the Occur d'Alene
five and the first period closed
With the score standing at 10 to
, against the Hofstetterites The
ocal boys rallied, however, at the
opening of the second half and
came within a few points Of
evening up the scoring.
The visitors were more expert
at basket shooting, but in team
work the ST. Maries five was
easily ahead. Among the bright
lights on the local team might
be mentioned Carl Stocking and
Iemar Andrews, whose work was
a feature of the game. Null
Toney also played i'm good form.

Georges Sentence
Is COMMITTED
SUPREME COURT SUSTAINS JUDGMENT
Pardon Board COmmutaS Sentence From Hanging
To Life Imprisonment

sentenced to be hung. A Boise
lawyer named Eldridge then came
forward and appealed the case to
the supreme court. A stay of
execution was taken and George
has been i'm the death cell in the
penitentiary at Boise for more
than a year waiting for the SUI
preme court to decide the case.
A week ago last Saturday Ed
ridge brought the case before the
pardon board and asked for a
commutation of the sentence to
life Imprisonment. The supreme
court had not announced its de-
cision in the case and the pardon
board refused to act. Last Fri
lay the court handed down a de
cisiOn i'm the case sustaining the
judgment of the lower court and
the matter was again brought be-
fore The board of pardOns which
40 once commuted Georges SEN
tence to Imprisonment for life.
The action of the board i'm this
case is strong argument for
doing away with the death penalty
for, according to the evidence in
the case, if ever a man deserved
t. pay the extreme penalty, that
man was George.

rest of the county, has been hav-
ing some real winter weather, in
fact . has been the kind of wealth
er that starts the Oldtimer to tell
ing of the winter in the dim past
when Occur d'Alene lake was
frozen over and wood was hauled
by team from Harrison to Coeur
G'Alene on the ice. 1t is Ger
tain that nothing like it has been
seen in recent years.
1t has been uncommonly cold
for the past four weeks, during
which time the snow on the
streets has not thawed to any ex-
tent, but Saturday night was by
far the cOldest weather exper-
fenced as yet. The thermOme-
ters in number of places regis
tered twenty-five degrees below
zero at five o'clock Sunday morn
ing and eighteen below at eight
O'Clock. Sunday night was also
extremely cold, but not quite so
sharp as the preceding one.
Proflting by the experience OF
a year ago when the city wate-
system was nearly put out of com
mission, the council had a great
many of the water mains lowered
during the summer and so far
there has been no serious trouble
with the city main but it has been
different with the private pipes.
Trouble with them was reported
all over the city and all day Sun
day the plumbers were kept busy
thawing out pipes. Many of the
citizens not only had their water
supply cut off temporarily but in
many instances the pipes burst
and a few instances have been
reported where hot water tanks
burst.
The extreme cold weather Of
the past three days has complete
ly closed traffic on the river and
the Red Collar Line has aban-
dOned its attempt to keep the river
open. The steamer Flyer with
the ice-breaker Copenhagen made
its last river run for the present
Sunday. They left here Sunday
morning and succeeded in getting
through to Coeur d'Alene but on
the return trip they only succeed
ed in getting as far as Harrison.
the ice from there here being too
thick to get through. The Flyer
and Copenhagen will be put on
the run between Harrison and
COeur d'Alene.
This cold spell has not been
confined to this locality but has
been universal, from coast to
coast and has extended we'll south.
1t has seriously interferred with
traffic on the railroads. Freights
are running very irregular and
it is impossible to figure on the
time any consignment from the
east will arrive. West bound
passenger trains on the Milwau-
kee road have lost a full day and
some Of them more, trains due
here yesterday not arriving until
today. The east bound trains
have not been bothered so much
on this end and have been but
very little late.
