IRON SPAR COMPANY
HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING
WILL EXTEND cRosscuTTovEIN
GOOD SHOWING ON PRO.
PERTY ADJOINING.

The annual meeting Of the Iron Spar
Copper Mining company was held last
Monday evening when the following
officers and directors were elected
Wesley Everett, president A. G.
kerns, vice president; A. l.. Honeker
treasurer; G. w Dougherty, secretary
These with A. l.. Nicholson constitute
the board of directors. Immediately
following the meeting of the stock
holders the directors met and desig-
mated A, l.. Honeker as manager of
the property, and authorized him to
let contract for the annual assess
ment work. 1t was also decided that
this work should be done in the lower
tunnel and in the opinion of Mr..
Honeker an extension of 40 feet will
cut the vein. The Iron Spar is To-
Gated in the Occur d'Alene mineral
belt crossing the Idaho Montana di-
vide, most of the ground lying in
Montana, where the workings are To-
Gated, 1t lies south or ana parallel to
the Amazon Dixie.
Good Showing In Upper Tunnel.
The development work consists Of
about 700 feet of tunnel, and the
showing in the upper tunnel where
it has been explored is highly salts
factory to the management At this
point the ledge is Is feet wide and is
well mineralized throughout, and all
point to a marked i'm
provement when the vein is cut in the
lower tunnel, both in the width of the
vein and in the grade of ore.
The president of the Iron Spar,
Wesley Everett, is also manager of
he Amazon Dixie, and should the de-
lelopment of the first named company
1t would be perfectly feasible
o extend a crosscut from the main
unnel of the Amazon Dixie, which
would give great depth and deliver the
product at the railroad.
An assessment of three mills was
evied to provide funds for the work
bove outlined.

THE SILVER CLIFF.

Good Showing of Lead and Copper
Reported in Property Near Summit.
A special meeting of the directors OF
the Silver Cliff Mining company was
held the first of the week to fill a
vacancy and to arrange plans for con
tinuing development. John Rolin, OF
Mullan, was made a director to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Gust
Osberg. Reports from the property
indicate that there is a large body OF
low grade ore, probably 80 feet wide,
both copper and lead, and the COM
pany is very hopeful that further de-
velopment will soon disclose CONNER
cial values. James d. Young, manager
of the property, and two other men
are employed. The Silver Cliff is near
Lookout, on the Idaho Montana sum-
NIT.

STEWART MINING CO.
TO INCREASE CAPITAL
PREPARES TO PURCHASE ADD.
TloNAL MINES-FAVOR-
ABLE REPORTS.

The question of increasing the cap
ital of the Stewart Mining company
from $1,250OOO to 100000 will be
submitted to the stockholders of the
company at a special meeting called
at the office of the company at Kel-
logg, on July 8.
In a circular to the stockholders the
directors say that during the past
winter the operations at the mines
were prosecuted continuously, al
though the production of ore was re-
duced because of a limitation in the
extent and value of the ore at the
present workings. The circular says
Present Production of Stewart.
1.-THE development work in the
grounds of the Occur d'Alene Develop.
ment company controlled by the
Stewart Mining company, has un.
covered considerable commercial ore
which is now being mined at the rate
of approximately so tons per day.
While development work is constantly
In progress on both of these properties
along promising lines, it is still the
judgment of the directors that addi-
tional property should be acquired in
order that the future of the Stewart
Mining company as a dividend paying
property be assured.
During the last year our engineers
have examined many mining proper
ties and reported to your board in re-
gard thereto. The only purchase Of
new property so far made has been
the controlling interest of the Occur
dAlene Development company, paid
for with the treasury stock of the
Stewart Mining company, as reported
to the stockholders in previous let
ter
Two Properties Considered.
None of the properties examined !
has been reported upon favorably by |
our engineers, except two on which |
this company holds options, and which |
are being made the subject of further
CdlSl VI SAdIiIildIlOH II ID COuuueHlly |
that one of these properties
will be approved by our experts, in
which event the same should be i'm
purchased and operated so
as to take advantage of the present
high price Of metals. Your directors
will be able to purchase such addi-
Lional property or properties with
treasury stock of the Stewart Mining
company, but in order to do this the
capital stock Of the company must
be increased, as there is now only a
small amount of treasury stock on
1and."
The circular says that the plan al
'eady has the sanction Of the largest
Individual stockholders.

THE GIANT LEDGE.
Shaft Below 200 Level Unexpectedly
Strikes Strinsers Of Ore.

Charles G. Taylor, manager of the
Giant Ledge company, operating on
Granite creek, above Murray, was in
the city Tuesday morning on his way
to Spokane. He will return soon ac-
companied by his wife, who will spend
the summer at the mine. Mr. Taylor
stated that the contractors who were
sinking the shaft 200 feet below the
200 level were Unexpectedly delayed
in getting the work started, but that
the work is going along satisfactorily
now. The day he left about 20 feet
had been made, and much to his sur
prise stringers Of ore were being en-
countered. This was wholly unex-
pected and goes to show that ore can
be found most any old place about
the Giant Ledge.

The Liston, at the head of Big
3 creek, is soon to be again on the ac-
tive list. M. Baumgartner, manager
of the property, came up from Spo-
kane last week for the purpose of
awarding a contract to extend the
drift $50 or 200 feet. 1t is expected
that ore will be encountered by the
time the contract is completed, in
fact the showing in the drift indi-
Gates that commercial ore may be
found any day The company has
compressor plant, good buildings and
everything necessary to accomplish
rapid work.

WEST NINE MILE CO.
HAS GOOD SHOWING
ARRANGEMENTS COMPLETED TO
FINANCE coMPANY-coN.
TRACT AWARDED.

One of the early day locations or
Nine Mile was restored to the active
list last Monday evening when the
stockholders of the West Nine Mile
Mining company held a meeting and
elected a board of directors, entered
into an agreement for financing the
company and awarded a contract to
drive 200 feet of tunnel OF the 1000
900 shares of the company, 100000 are
held by the estate of the late Mrs.
Elise Heller, represented by George II.
Heller. OF the remaining 800, 900,
100000 is in the treasury and the re-
mainder has been issued. All the out
standing stock has been pooled and an
agreement has been entered into with
Charles Heilbronner, of Butte, to dis
pose of the treasury stock as a means
of financing the company. The pro-
perty Is located on the west fork of
Nine Mile, about three and half
miles from this city. The Northern
Pacific railroad crosses the ground
near the dump of the main tunnel.
The holdings of the company consist
of four claims on the west slope and
opposite the Nine Mile companys
ground.
Extent of Development.
The main opening on the property
is a tunnel just above the creek which
has been extended 290 feet. In this
distance four stringers carrying ore
said to be of milling grade and rang
ing III width from to IS inches
These stringers are uniformly about |
20 feet apart and seem to converge
which leads to the belief that they |
will come together in one large vein |
at no great depth. A drift was run
on the first of these stringers about
100 feet, and at the end of the drift
says of the ore from the bottom of
he shaft showed 40 ounces silver and
- per cent lead. A contract was
IWarded to extend the main tunnel
wv lSSl, WHICH Is expected 10 cut The l.
'ein under heavy iron outcrop. If
he showing exposed by the extension
proves satisfactory, Mr.. Heilbronne1
tates that it is probable that shaft
will be sunk from the surface south
# the tunnel as a means of perman-
mt development

SILVER MOUNTAIN Co,
RESUMES OPERATIONS
CONTRACT SOON TO BE LET TO
EXTEND cRosscUT-ELEc.
TON OF OFFICERS.

Phillip Tice, president of the Silver
Mountain Mining company and w. E
Horstkotte, secretary, both of Pot
latch, Idaho, in company with Sam. ]
Tennel, the local manager, visited the
property Tuesday for the purpose of
deciding on plans for further work.
The property is located on the south
side of the river, opposite the Morning
compressor, and consists of seven
claims, four of which are patented.
There are three veins, the south one
being. the Silver Mountain to the de-
Ivelopment of which work is now to
be directed. AS explained by Mr..
Tennel, crosscut intersects the three
at a point where they appear to come
together The north vein is described
as contact, while the third is a blind
vein between the two Acting upon
the advice of an engineer a drift has
been extended several hundred feet on
the blind vein, but without satisfac-
tory results, and it is now proposed
to continue a crosscut from this drift
to the south or Silver Mountain vein.
The distance will probably be upwards
of 250 feet, 140 feet of which has al
ready been run. A survey will now be
made to verify the course of the cross
cut and work will be pushed as rap
idly as possible.
Ore In Silver Mountain.
In conversation with Mr.. Tennel he
stated that surface work and shallow
tunnels had disclosed 80 feet of low
grade ore in the Silver Mountain vein,
carrying values in copper, lead, silver
and gold, the lead values being small,
and the other values aggregating So
per ton. The crosscut which will now
be extended will cut this ore at depth
Of 700 feet and much confidence is
felt that it will show much improve
nent. Work will begin at once and
Is soon as the survey is completed |
The company will let a contract to
complete the work. The ground of |
he company is admirably located for
ieep development by tunnel, 1t being |
possible to reach the vein at a depth
If 1850 feet with a tunnel estimated

would start high enough above the

EAGAN COPPER MINING
HAS PROMISING GROUND
GOOD SHOWING OF HIGH GRADE
RAILROAD MEN CONTROL
THE COMPANY

The Eagan Copper Mining com.
pany was incorporated in this city
last week, and the property it has
taken over has long been regarded as
possessing unusual merit. 1t was To-
Gated in 1892 by Thomas Eagan and
Timothy Kelly, types of the true pros
pector who delights to penetrate the
wilds far beyond the haunts of men.
AT the time the Eagan group was To-
Gated the upper s. Joe was about as
remote a section as could be found in
the northwest, but the showing was
so good that these two prospectors
located the ground, determined to de-
velop it to the best of their ability and
await the time when transportation
facilities would give it value which
would reward them for their efforts
1t was long wait, and in the inter
vening years Timothy Kelly passed to
his reward across the great divide"
The Milwaukee railroad now passes
within two and half miles of the
PlOpClIJ CT EAbtbliS anu IOlll Id gan
has at last succeeded in organizing
a company which will at once proceed
to develop the property with every in
dication that it will prove profitable
to all concerned.
Location and Development.
The Eagan group consists of thir-
teen claims located on the same min
eral belt as the Richmond and Big Elk.
The development consists of two tun-
nels. The upper one has been driven
on the vein 22O feet, showing consid-
cradle ore and indicating large ore
bodies at depth. A raise has also been
made from this tunnel which is in ere
of good milling grade The lower tun-
rel has been run $50 feet on the vein, |
the drift following the foot wall, along |
which is IS inches of shipping ore |
This ore contains 20 per cent of cop
per with some gold and silver values |
There is considerable ore on the dump |
as the result of development work,
and it is probable that a shipment
will be made soon after resuming
work
Organization and Development.
The Eagan Copper Mining company
is capitalized for 1250,00O shares of
the par value of, 10 cents. To develop
the property 100000 shares have been
placed in the treasury, and 100000
shares will at once be placed on the
market at 5 cents per share. A large
amount has already been subscribed,
enough to assure immediate work on
the property. Easy terms of payment
are offered, namely, cent down and
one half cent per share per month
The work at present contemplated is
to continue drifting in the lower tun-
mel, which promises to soon open
enough ore for shipment A wagon
road to the railroad will also be open
ed, part of it being already built.
The Eagan company was organized
by the election of the following off,
GERS and directors Roy A. Henkle, Ie
president; John W. Dickinson, vice. I
president; who with Thomas Eagan, |
Frank E. Rice and Frank c. Blakely, :
constitute the board of directors. L. S
L. Brainard is secretary of the COM
pany. The officers of the company are
all employees of the O-W. r. & N.
and a large number of rail-
road men employed by this company
and the Milwaukee are taking stock
in the enterprise. t

TUNGSTEN IN ELDORADO
MAY Be GREAT VALUE
ORE SENT AWAY FOR COMPLETE
ANALYSls-EoUIP PROPER.
TY FOR DEVELOPMENT.

The Eldorado Mining & Smelling
company may find that its ore is
more valuable for tungsten than for
silver and lead, and this question will
soon be determined by a thorough
analysis of the ore. According to a
statement from one of the company,
it has been known for some time that
the ore contained tungsten, but in
what form and how much has never
been determined. Samples have now
been sent to an eastern laboratory for
analysis and all necessary information
regarding it. Tungsten is frequently
found associated with lead, but this
is the first case reported in this dis
trict.
Increase Capital Stock.
A special meeting of the Eldorado
company was held at the Office of the
company in this city last Monday
evening for the purpose of increasing
the capital stock. The original capt.
talization was 100000 shares of the
par value Of 10 cents. This was in
creased to 1,25O,OOO of the same par
value The additional treasury stock
will placed on the market and the pro-
ceeds will be used in the purchase of
compressor the installation of cleo
trio power, and for other equipment
for extensive development The pro-
perty is developed by tunnels which
have explored the vein to a consider
able extent, making a showing of lead
silver ore of great promise outside of
the possibility of tungsten value The
Eldorado is located a short distance
east of Kellogg, convenient to the rail-
road.
The officers and directors of the
company are M. A. Curran, president;
Charles Bollinger, vice president; J. A.
Patterson, M. c. Williams and John
Hamblin, w. w. Bixby is secretary.
