showing at that time. This tunnel is
now in about 500 feet, about $50 feet
of which is on the vein. The vein is
described as one of unusual promise
and for about $50 feet it appears that
the tunnel passed through the top of
an ore shoot from which most of the
values had leached out. Recently a
diabase dixie was encountered cutting
across the vein obliquely and about 80
feet in thickness. The vein was pick

MINING ON SLATE CREEK.
New Company Will Build Wagon Road
From The milwaukee


Company has been formed at
Tekoa, Wash, to be known as the
State Creek Consolidated Mining e.
Milling company for the purpose of
developing mining claims at the mouth
of Slate creek in Shoshone county says
the st Maris Gazette. The property
consists of l6 claims purchased from
H. d. Lance, who, according to news
paper reports has been the owner of
the claims for about fifteen years.
These reports also state that three
tunnels have been started in various
sections of the property, that prac-
tically all of the external developments
have been completed and that the
first steps in further development will
be the building of a road to connect
with the Milwaukee railroad and the
erection of a small mill.

CHANGE IN WEATHER.
Prolonged Cold Spell Seems to Have
Been Finally Broken.


Last night the mercury, after hang
ing around zero and at times s or 10
below, for the past two weeks, took a
turn upwards and this morning at 6
o'clock it registered 20 above and still
moving up. Some snow fell 'during the
night and indications are for more
snow.
The moderation in the temperature
came just in time to save probably a
general shutdown of mills. The Green
Hill Cleveland and Stewart mills had
already shut down and all others were
running with difficulty on account of
the shortage of water due to the Sc
we're cold. The change has relieved
the situation and few days of moder-
ate weather will start things moving
again.

BUILD MILL SIX Wees
MINE AND MILL REPORTED IN
READINESS FOR STEADY
PRODUCTION.

! In December IL ground was broken
for the Little Pittsburg mill on Pine
creek and today it is practically COM
pleted and before the week is out II
will be turning out concentrates. That
| is substantially the statement of ]. d.
Beebe, manager of the Colonial Min
ing company, under whose direction
this rapid record of mill construction
has been made and who is displaying
the same qualities in developing the
great ore body of the mine. The mill
has daily capacity of 800 tons, and
to fully grasp what it means to con-
struct and equip it in that brief per-
iod, 1t should be borne in mind that it
is situated miles from the railroad
from which the large amount of lum-
Der used in it's construction and the
heavy machinery had to be hauled
over wagon road which has not yet
been favored by attention from the
of all obstacles that would have dis
Outraged less determined man, and
If you please a more experienced mine
operator, Mr.. Beebe seems to have ac-
complished the task he imposed upon
himself to complete the mill and have
it running within six weeks. In do
ing so he has established a record for
mill construction that has never been
equalled in the district
Viii Begin Shipping at Once.
While the work on the mill has
been crowded, development in the mine
has been pushed in the same manner,
and Mr.. Beebe states that there will be
no difficulty in supplying the mill with
ore up to its capacity. The vein is
large and the proportion of zinc and
lead is about to /. There is streak
of high grade zinc which will average
about 2 feet and Mr.. Beebe says the
plan of mining is to leave this until the
milling ore is removed, when it is
to be broken down and shipped direct
Considerable of this ore is now await
ing facilities for loading it on
the cars, which will be completed at
the Pine creek spur in few days. The
drift on the vein has been extended
about $50 feet, and the only change
apparent is a considerable increase in
the amount of lead as the drift ad-

THE KILL BUCK.
crosscut Expected to Cut the Vein at
Any time.

c. w, Gossert, manager of the Kill
Buck mining company, was in the city
yesterday, Assed regarding progress
of operations, he stated that there was
nothing new, but that he was expecting
something new every day The eros
scut had reached a point where the
vein might be encountered any day.
and when 1t is reached Mr. Gossert will
not be surprised to find big body of
commercial lead ore The showing in
the upper works fully justifies this ex-
pectation. The property is being ex-
plored by extending the Occur d'Alene
Vulcan tunnel and will tap the vein at
a depth of 900 feet, The Kill Buck is
owned by ex-senator Clark of Mon

THE RICHMOND.
Recent Rich Strike in Lower Tunnel
Still Holds Good

Still Holds Good
Charles Heidenrich, manager and
principle owner of the Richmond, was
in the city yesterday on his way to the
Richmond, his purpose being to go to
Saltese and thence by the Milwaukee
to Adair, from which station it is only
about ~ miles to the mine.
He said, however that he might
change his mind about going to the
mine if the cold weather continued I'M
til he reached Adair. He stated that
the drift had been extended IS feet
since the strike was made a few weeks
ago, and that the face of the tunnel
is all in ore that runs from 20 to so
per cent in copper. The high grade
is about a foot wide and has the APP
pearance of copper glance, the balance
of the ore being mostly chalcopyrite.
The tunnel will give about 100 feet
more depth than the shaft. The
striking of this ore taken in connection
with work that has proved the ore
practically demonstrates an
ore shoot 1000 feet long.
