MINE ELECTS OFFICERS

Joseph Lancaster, we'll known in
Bonners Ferry as mining engineer
for the Idaho Montana Amalgamated
Mining company, which has holdings
in the Moyie- Yalzht district about
five miles north of this place, at
tended the annual meeting of the
company which was held at Spokane
last Wednesday. In his report he
stated the shaft had been sunk to
a depth of 1926 feet on the dip of
the vein and 1000 feet of drifting
and other work done. He stated
that the ore contains to Is per cent
lead and half an ounce of silver
to a unit of lead and that the vein
outcrops for 800 feet. Concentrates
have had a content as high as 80
per cent lead.
A bond and lease on the prop
erty was given to the Katka Mining
company in April last. The bond
covers three years and requires the
payment of $4,000. The leasing com
pany is engaged in development.
At the annual meeting held We'd

NEW SYSTEM IN OPERATION
Telephone Line Between Moyie
Spring and Lenia Now Open.

The telephone line that has been
under construction since November
Is, between Moyie Springs and Lenia
is now completed and in operation.
The new system comprises 10 miles
of main line and A 1-2 miles of
branch lines and was built coopera-
lively by the forest service and the
settlers. By the construction of this
line telephone communication is now
possible from Libby and Troy, Mont,
through Boomers Ferry and Sand
point to Spokane. The line was con-
structed under the supervision of j.
Z. Ryan acting for the forest SER
vice and E. B. Schlette representing
the settlers.
Considerable difficulty has been
experienced in bringing the new line
to completion. Mr.. Schlette, who
was largely responsible for its build
ing, first attempted to interest the
telephone company in the under
taking but without success. Likewise
an attempt to get backing from the
settlers at first met with failure
due to lack of interest. Finally Mr..
Schlette took the matter up with
the forest reserve officials who soon
saw the value of the line and at
once gave the undertaking all the
aid possible. Also when a franchise
was asked from Lincoln county,
Mont, for the line the county re
quired too much responsibility ac-
cording to the opinion of the builders
so they kept the line off the public
roads and got right-of-way from
the owners of the land crossed. FL
nally, however, their efforts met with
success and the line was completed.

The work of installing the phones
was begun on January 4th and to
date there are seven phones along
the line.

than Sunday yet still hot enough for
all purposes. The camp is delightful.
The Sunday crowd is gone and all
settled down now to quiet camp life.
When all the gate receipts for the first
Sunday were totaled up it showed the
best first Sunday on record. Every
one is predicting a banner crowd next
Sunday. The fact that DR.. Bysshe
who just recently returned from
France and has a wonderful story to
tell, is to speak twice will be sure
to draw many. Bishop Anderson as
sured us yesterday that everyone
would be delighted with DR.. Bysshe,

DR.. Bysshe quotes him as saying of

preacher he couldn't say what he
thought of the Kaiser, it wouldn't
sound right in church and from a
Methodist preacher"

was said today. carries out the wishes
of the financier who suggested in his
will that his collections be placed
where they could be made "perma-
nently available for the pleasure and
instruction of the American people"
The value of the original collection
of paintings, miniatures, porcelains,
tapestries and other works of art was
placed at $50,000,000. Since Mr.. Nor
gan's death at Rome March 81, 1913,

The enamelS and ivGrieS which con-
stitute the principal part of the col
