COUNTY CONTRIBUTION
TO THE YIN. c. A. FUNDS
PEOPLE RESPOND LITERALLY TO
WORTHY AND PATRI-
OTTO CAUSE.

While several sections of the coun-
ty have not reported it is now assur-
ed that Shoshone county has respond :
ed with the full amount allotted for
the army work of the Y. Nj. c. A. The
amount was $4,000, or almost one
sixth of the entire amount to be rails
ed in the state of Idaho. In making
the apportionment for the various
towns of the county, Wallace was
given $4,000 and Kellogg $4,000, Nine
Mile $1,000, Canyon creek $500 and
Mullan $500. Wallace fell a little
short of the amount expected to be
raised, the total sum Yesterday being
$5S64. final effort was being made
to raise this to $4,000 and it may be
successful. Kellogg went far beyond
her allotment, subscribing about the
same as Wallace. Returns from other
sections are not complete, but there
seems no doubt that the county has
come through with the full amount.
Knights of Columbus.
At the same time the Y. M. C. A.
drive was being made the knights of
Columbus were making a drive for
the same cause, though the work in
the army and navy is conducted
through their own organization. The
result of their drive throughout the
county is not known beyond the fact
that it has been very successful. In
wallace 1t is learned that something
over $4,000 was subscribed. This added
TO the fund for the Y. M. c. A. brings
the total amount contributed by the
people of Wallace to the support of
the Y. NJ, c. A. work in the army up
to ss364. a most gratifying showing. |
Other parts of the county will no
doubt show corresponding support for
the knights of Columbus, and it is
therefore probable that when all re-
ports are in it will be found that
Shoshone county has contributed /
close to $4,000 to the work o fthe Y
M. c. A. as represented by the regu-
lar organization and the Knights of
Columbus.

AJAX.
Property Being Developed Through the
Dom Paul Workings.

About 25 men are reported working
at the Ajax, owned by a company
controlled by New England people
and consisting of a large group of
claims lying east of and adjoining the
Hercules. A large amount Of develop
ment work has been done on the pro-
perty, covering a long period of years,
and considerable ore has been disclos-
ed, but not in commercial quantity.
The company is working on the the
DRY that 1t has the eastern extension
of the famous Hercules vein. Hereto
fore the development Of the property
has been through tunnels from the
surface of the company's ground, but
at this time a crosscut is being run
from the workings of the Dom Paul.
The Dom Paul tunnel starts near the
level of the creek short distance
above Burke and has been driven some
5000 feet. Just how far the Ajax will
have to run to reach the vein Is not
known, but it will give a great addi-
tional depth Work on the Dom Paul
has been suspended indefinitely.

OLD CHARLES DICKENS.
Compressor Plant Restored and Full
Force Working in Mine.

| According to statement by A. d.
Grtman manager of the Old Charles
Dickens mine, Oh Moon creek, the new
compressor has been installed and
two shifts began work in the mill yes
terday He also reports an important
strike on the 400 level of which he
says:
"A high grade body of ore, opened on
the 400-foot level several weeks ago,
has been followed 35 to 40 feet by drift.
1t has a width of IS inches at the face
and has an average of 16 inches 1t
contains 50 per cent lead and SO
ounces of silver to the ton. The high
grade streak lies in a body of milling
ore having width greater than the
drift, but how much greater has not
been determined. This development is
being performed in a section of the
4O0-foot level, where the depth is $50
feet"

TARBOX CROSSCUT WILL
SOON REACH VEIN ON 800
INDICATIONS OF STRIKING RICH
ORE SHooT-MllL IN
SPRING.

According to plans of the Tarbox
Mining company. a mill will be con.
structed in the spring which will
place the property on permanent
productive basis. The company has
its own sawmill and a large body OF
saw timber on its ground, which will
enable it to provide all necessary
lumber for the mill at the minimum
cost. Much milling ore is already
available down to the 600 level and
the amount will without doubt be
largely increased when the vein is
encountered on the 500, which will be
about December Is. 1t is regarded
more than probable that the vein on
the 500 will also show much ore of
shipping grade, which would enable
the company to make shipments of
crude ore soon after the first OF the
year. If this should prove correct,
the company may be in position to
relieve stockholders of the burden of
assessments and at the same time
pense of building a mill.
Letter From Manager.
A letter has just been mailed by
Manager Richard Daxon to Tarbox
stockholders, accompanying a notice of
Assessment, in which he says:
Since my last report Of September
l splendid progress has been made, a
force of 80 to So men being steadily
employed. Our monthly expenses are
now aggregating in the neighborhood
of $4,000.
THE shaft has been completed to
the 800-foot level; the stump has been
sunk to depth of 25 feet a large
station has been cut, and an excep-
tionally good job of timbering has
been done throughout.
I'VE are now prosecuting to the
vein with three shifts of miners. We
expect to encounter the vein not later
than December Is. The formation is
Burke quartzite, is fairly hard and
we'll mineralized This formation is
considered the most favorable in this
district for the development of per-
manent ore bodies. A wagon road
one mile in length leading from the
shaft house to the reservoir has been
partly completed. Owing to weather
conditions we will not be able to do
anything further toward installing the
water power before next spring.
1T is estimated that 100000 feet of
saw timber is now on the skids ready
to be converted into lumber. A large
supply of firewood for the boilers is
being provided for the winter, also
mining timbers. bunk house and
office building are also being built
TT is the intention of the manage
ment to do large amount of devel-
opment work on this level. Drifts
will be extended east and west on the
vein and thorough exploration of the
ore bodies will be made on this level"

crosscut Being Run From Main Tun-
mel That May Develop Ore.

mel mat way CeNc'OP SFc.
John Callahan, a large stakeholder
in the Idaho & Los Angeles company,
visited the property last week About
midway of the tunnel there Is evil
dence of split in the vein, branch
running further to the north. Having
failed to develop an ore shoot in the
south branch, a crosscut has now been
started which should cut the north one
in about rs or 30 feet The formation
Is quartzite and Mr.. Callahan stated
that the face of the crosscut, which
had just been started, showed little
galena and lead and the probability OF
finding an ore shoot when the vein Is
reached Is regarded as very favorable.
Nothing is being done in the lower
tunnel, 100 feet below, but this was
examined by Mr.. Callahan, who was
most favorably impressed with the
showing A little zinc has been de-
veloped there and 1t is probable that
work will soon be resumed.

RED MONARCH.
More Lead Coming in as the Drift Is
Extended East.

Discussing the progress of develop
ment of the Red Monarch the other
day in Spokane, Conrad Wolfe, pres
ident of the company, stated that af-
ter drifting east along the hanging
wall 800 feet from the crosscut in ore,
mostly zinc, the drift crossed to the
footwall which has now been followed
As or so feet. This shows an improv-
ed grade of ore and decided increase
in the amount of lead with a cores
ponding decrease in zine The cross
cut had been extended 2910 feet to the
intersection of the vein, and has now
been driven 3110 feet. The formation
has become harder and Mr.. Wolfe ex-
presses the opinion that the second
vein Is not far away.

New FIotation Plant.

The flotation plant, which is ex-
pected to add about 800 tons to the
daily capacity of the Interstate Gala
han mill, is now reported in operation
and doing most satisfactory work 1t
is expected to result in making a IS
per cent recovery, and even this high
rate may be improved through the
experimental work being carried on
by metallurgical experts in the ser
vice of the company There is large
accumulation of tailings which will be
treated by flotation in addition to the
regular daily tonnage from the mine.

Creosoted Blocks,

The use of creosoted wood blocks
which originally began as paving ma
terial for city streets, has now spread
into many other lines according to a
statement issued by the United States
forest service, which says that the
durability of such pavement, the
noiselessness under heavy traffic, and
It's sanitary properties, give creosoted
wood blocks especial value for use
where there is heavy trucking.

THE MINING ASSOCIATION
WILL MEET IN WALLACE
NEW WAR TAX AND SUBJECTS OF
IMPORTANCE WILL BE
CONSIDERED.

A meeting of the Idaho Mining as
ISOLATION will be held in this city next
Saturday afternoon at $3.50 for the
purpose of discussing matters of pres
sing importance to the mining indus
try of the state. The meeting Is called
by the executive committee, which is
composed of ]. B. Edrldge, chairman,
of Boise; /. Il. Rockwell, of Bellevue;
Harry L. Day, Of Wallace; A. J. Van
eEman, of Boise and Frank e. john
esse, of Boise. Stanley A. Easton, of
Kellogg, is president of the associa-
ton. The subjects to be discussed
are outlined in letter from Ravenal
Macbeth, of Mackay secretary of the
association, as follows
Purposes Of the Meeting.
1.-THE purpose Is a conference by
the mining men of Idaho on the UNI
usual and serious conditions confront
ing the mining industry with respect
to the fixing of prices for silver lead
and other metals; the unfair and UNI
necessarily destructive features of the
war revenue tax, which makes no de-
finite provisions for the depletion of
mines; the unjust transportation pro-
vision, which in the case of some pro-
perties provides for a freight tax of
3 per cent on lead ores and the lead
contents Of ores, the draft condition
affecting labor. and the need of re-
presentation by the producers in set
ting these vital matters All mining
men Of Idaho and those having inter-
ests In Idaho are invited to attend
1.-THE mining men are intensely loyal
as shown by their purchases of Lib
erty bonds, and would gladly pay the
tax made, necessary by the exigeneies
of war, but the wages are high, the
cost of smelling and handling has
reached an almost prohibitive figure,
and If, in addition to taxes paid by
other corporations, they are saddled
with provisions that allow nothing for
depletion, the entire industry will be
threatened and the prosperity of com
munities in which mines are the chief
industry destroyed"
Action on War Tax.
1t Is expected that the subject that
will receive the most consideration will
be the excess profits tax and that an
organized effort will be made to Sc
cure modification of the law through
congressional action that will make it
more fair and equitable in its applica-
ton to mining companies.
