FOUR T|MBERS COMPANY
TO INSTALL COMPRESSOR
EQUIPMENT ORDERED AND NEW
TUNNEL STARTED-GET
GREAT DEPTH.

The Four Timbers Mining company
has adopted plan for the more ag-
gressiye development of its property
on Beaver creek and which will be
carried into effect Immediately This
is the information given out by Will
liam Shannon, who has just return
ed from ColfaX, Wash, where the
control of the company is held, and
Ewho will have charge of the develop
ment of the property. The company
owns five claims which are joined by
the Ray Jefferson on the south and
the Amazon Manhattan on the east,
a location which in itself suggests the
great prospective value of the ground.
While the development SO far accom-
plished has been most satisfactory in
it's results, Mr., Shannon, who Is the
locator of the property and stock
holder in the company, realized that
more rapid progress should be made
sented this view to the company upon
his recent visit to ColfaX and found
the officers of the company ready to
adopt his plan if feasible way was
found to provide funds to equip the
property. The company having lib
eral amount of treasury stock, Mr..
Shannon undertook to convert some
of this into cash and was so success
ful that before he left Colfax a COM
pressor and electric motor had been
ordered by telegraph.
Present and Future Development.
The main development on the -Four
| Timbers now is q crOsscut 525 feet &c
the vein and a drift of about SO feet
The vein is strongly mineralized and
| in all respects favorable to ore with
| further depth, and to gain depth is the
| purpose of the work now planned. A
tunnel has now been started on the
vein $50 feet vertically below the
upper tunnel and which will give q
total depth of 1900 feet. The ledge
appears to be upwards of 200 feet
wide and the tunnel that has beer
started will be driven across it anG
drifting started at the most favorable
place. This tunnel has now been
driven so feet and samples taken from
1t representing an average of the face
assay per cent zinc and per cent
lead. 1t is expected that the com
pressor and motor will arrive within
two weeks, by which time the electric
power line of the Washington Water
Power company will have been ex-
tended from the Beebe, about half a
mile. The ground of the Four Tim
bers company Is most favorably To-
Gated in section of the Occur d'Alene
district which is rapidly advancing te
position of Importance in mineral
production.

Naturally the turn in the paving con-
troversy has resulted in renewal of
the malicious attacks upon members of
the council and private citizens by the
Day daily. Knowing that there are no
grounds whatever for a charge of cor
ruption in awarding the paving con-
tract, this virtuous sheet resorts to
cowardly innuendo in order to discredit
and defame the men who refuse to be
intimidated by it and who courageous
ly serve the city rather than the mon
ey bags behind the Day daily. If there
is any grating in connection with
awarding the contract for paving, if
there has been any improper influence
used upon councilmen or private citi-
zens in the interest of certain paw
ing companies, the facts should be Civ
en- to the public and the law invoked
for the punishment of the guilty. But
in the absence of such facts, the news
paper that makes yelled insnuations
of corruption against respected citi-
zens is worse than the man who gives
or takes a bribe.

Up to the time the news of this de-
cision was received the majority of the
council and the Warren Construction
company were confident that the in
junction would be denied But the de-
cision Of the Washington court intro
duced new phase, which resulted In
the action taken by the company at
the meeting of the council last Mon
day evening. Immediately following
the withdrawal of the Warren bid,
Councilman Johnson offered a resolu-
ton authorizing another call for bids
in the identical form of the first call,
which after considerable discussion
was adopted by a unanimous vote of
the council. The advertisement ap-
pears in this issue of The Miner Bids
will be opened on May %. 1t is un-
derstood that Warren Brothers, own
ers of the bitulithic patent, will make
ia uniform rate for the use of their pro-
cess which will place all companies de-
string to use it on the same basis,
which will insure competition in the
class of paving which an overwhelm-
ing majority of the people of Wallace
want and which Is favored by a major
ity of the council. How much cheap
er, if any, it will be remains to be seen.

been issued from the headquarters of
the company at Missoula under date
of April 20. A detailed report of the
work accomplished in the develop

October of last year Is in the hands
of the directors, but in view of the
annual meeting of stockholders which
will be held in July, this information
Is withheld until that time, when
complete report of the operations of
the company will be submitted. The
directors find it necessary. in order to
continue vigorous development and
also to provide facilities for shipping
ore at an early date, to levy an as
sessment of s mills, notice of which
accompanies the letter.
Condition of the Mine.
Discussing the condition of the Sill
yer Cable and plans for handling the
property in the future, the letter says
"a considerable body of first class
ore has been exposed in the upper
workings and the work of the last few
months has been confined exclusively
to operations tending to cut this same
body of ore at depth.
Your directors have every reason
to believe that the ore body referred
to, will be opened in the lower work.
ings within the next 80 days.
THE directors of your company
have authorized the employment of an
expert mining engineer to examine
the entire workings of the property
and to report upon the value of the
work done and projected, and also to
advise in reference to the work now
going forward.
your board of directors have also
concluded that shipments of ore from
the property would be begun as soon
as the depth of the snow at the prop
erty will permit, and arrangements
are now being perfected for the mar
keting of a considerable tonnage of
the ore now exposed in the upper lev
els"

Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
splitting headache, stuffy from cold,
ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as
daisy by opening the sluices of the
system each morning and flushing out
the whole of the internal poisonous
stagnant matter,
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning before
breakfast, drink glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in ii to wash from the stom-
ach, liver and bowels the previous

poisonous toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
alimentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach. The action of
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully in

lamentations, gases, waste and acid
ity and gives one a splendid appetite
for breakfast. While you are enjoy
ing your breakfast the phosphated hot
water is quietly extracting a large
volume of water from the blood and
getting ready for a thorough flushing
Of all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both

stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness;
others who have sallow skins, blood

urged to get a quarter pound Of lime
