DEATH OF FRED GREEN.
A Great Shock to Many Friends in the
Occur d'Alene District.

News of the untimely death of Fred 7
Greene, geologist and mining engineer
through an automobile accident near
Butte last Monday, came as a great
shock to many friends in this district,
which he had frequently visited and
where he was well known. The prac-
tce of his profession had taken him
TO various parts of the world and his
success had earned for him a high
standing among mining men, while his
personality was such that attracted to
him many warm friends. In the noted
litigation between Senator Clark and
the Butte q Superior company. in
Volving the most complicated ques-
tons of geological structure, Mr..
Green was one of Senator Clark's
chief expert witnesses, and he was
engaged in preparing to appear for the
senator, in another case soon to be
tried between the same ltigants. Rush
j. White, mining engineer, will also
testify in that case for Senator Clark
and had recently returned from Butte
where he had been to confer with Mr..

daily were a mass of inaccuracies,
misstatements and willful misrepre-
sentation. Columns were consumed in
telling of things that did not happen,
men were credited with doing things
that they did not do, and men who
did do things worthy of mention were
ignored altogether. To attempt to
enumerate these instances would be
useless. for after all 1t was merely
repetition on a larger scale of what
appears every day in its columns.
Clearing the Wreck.
Substantial progress had been made
yesterday afternoon in clearing away
the wreckage of the great flood and in
opening the streets and sidewalks to
traffic. Practically all the wreckage
has been cleared from King street, the
sidewalk on the east side of the street
is clear and men with teams
and scrapers are leveling the
street so that it will prob
ably be possible for vehicles to
pass over it today. Good progress is
being made in clearing away the debris
in the vicinity of the Bank street
bridge. The large amount Of gravel
deposited in lower King street and in
the west end of Bank and High
streets will probably be sufficient to
fill the washout of King street.
Bridges Saved Greater Loss.
1t is a fact that many people have
not yet grasped that the presence of
the bridges across Placer creek on
Bank and High streets saved the city
from greater loss and possible loss of
life. If these bridges had been high
enough to clear the drift wood, the
jam would have occurred at the Wal
lace hospital, which is built
over the creek the entire
length of the building confined
to a channel narrower than that I'M
der the bridges. A jam there would
have diverted the water more directly
and in a larger volume through the
residence part of the city, would prob
ably have wrecked the hospital and
jeopardized the lives of patients. But
this would not have affected the dam
age on upper King street, which was
largely due to the uncontrolled waters
OF the creek above the limits of the
city.

MANAGER MAKES REPORT
ON BOSS ZINC MINING CO.
EXPECT WORK WILL SOON START
MUCH ACCOMPLISHED
IN YEAR.

A letter to the stockholders of the
Boss Zinc Mining company, under
date of December 81, from Henry Lieb,
president and manager reviews the
work accomplished during the past
year The showing Is a very credit
able one, especially in view of the diff
ficulties and delays with which the
company had to contend on account
OF high water In addition TO driving
$50 feet on the vein, the report shows
that a large amount of surface work
was accomplished which will prove of
great value as a guide to further de-
yelopment A wagon road was built
from the Two Mile road to the prop
erty and new buildings were erected
convenient to the workings and which
provide accommodations for eight or
ten men. Continuing Manager Lieb
says:
Underground Showing.
IAN work has been done in first
class manner and at a nominal cost.
The improvements on the surface are
absolutely necessary from an econom-
ical and practical mining standpoint
and will more than pay for them
selves In the course of six months
continuous operations
Our work in the tunnel has proven
vein at least II feet wide which
consists of crushed quartzite and
obnuc raul, oapoopt 80 a,,o,t, .,,,,
and siderite, considerable iron sui
phides with small particles of lead,
silver, copper and zinc, with clay
gcuge and tale seam on the foot wall
whether or not we have one is a mat
ter of guess work.
"Our work on the surface has proven
one of two things, that is, we either
have two veins or one very large one.
The latter seems to be the most logl-
cal conclusion, as all indications from
the work done leads us to believe that
our vein is over 80 feet wide, good
vein matter with sprinkling of ore
having been found for fully the above
width.
Company Makes Good Record.
Unfortunately the war has brought
about conditions which make it hard
TO raise money enough to continue the
development. We were forced to sus-
pend operations about November Is,
but before closing down we left every
thing in shape to start up on short
notice. We now have hopes of maxi
Ing financial arrangements to go ahead
with the good work and are making
every possible effort to get the prop
erty working again. The company
has over 100000 shares of stock left
OF its treasury of 100000 shares. We
are safe in saying that there has been
more than $4,000 spent in equipment
and development. This | consider
wonderful showing for young com
pany like the Boss Zinc and proves to
its stockholders that they have had
good management in the past to have
accomplished so much on less than
100000 shares of treasury stock. 1t
makes an average of better than s |
cents per share"

HEcLA DRY HOUSE.


The new concrete dry and change
building for employees of the Heca
Mining company is nearing compile
ton. In fact the upstairs room is now
IN use Here each man is provided
with means for suspending his change
clothing from the ceiling, this system
being regarded preferable to individ-
ual lockers. In fact the clothing is
elevated by chains over pulleys and
the men are provided with keys and
locks TO fasten the chains. Thus the
clothing is as safe as in lockers and
mas the advantage of better ventila-
tion. The lower floor Will be provid-
ed with wash rooms, baths, toilets,
etc, and the entire building heated by
steam.

MORNING.
Big Mine Will Start Up Before the
Middle of January,

Middle of January.
Repairing the Morning shaft is pro-
crossing rapidly and it was officially
stated this week that the big mine
would be ready for resumption about
the 10th or 18th of January This is
good news for the people of Mullan
and of the district generally. The
shortage of men in the district for I'M
foreground work may delay getting
full force of men at once, although
this may be somewhat relieved by the
suspension of operations at the
Green Hill Cleveland, which will prob
ably occur about the time the Morn
ing is ready to start, when a consider
able number may be transferred to the
Mullan mine. The Morning normally
employs about 600 men in the mine
and mill.
