SH { r M AN.

A snoWslide a few weeks ago in
terrupted operations at the Sherman.
The slide covered the portal of the
tunnel and carried away the sheds and
mining timbers. A tunnel has been
run through the mass of snow to the
portal and work is now going forward
as usual. There is no change to re-
port in the appearance of the vein
which remains strong and more or less
mineralized. The drift is being ad-
vanced at the rate of 10 feet every "a
hours, and while it would not be sur
prising to encounter an ore shoot any
day, it will probably be necessary to
run 500 or 500 feet to reach the known
ore shoot above. The Sherman was
formerly known as the Union and it is
near Burke.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
M Management Hopes. to Be Able to
Shin Carload a Week.

About Is men are reported employ
ed by the Idaho nickerbocker Min
ing company, formerly known as the
Charles Dickens, on Moon creek. The
shaft is being unwatered, which Should
be completed in a few days, and the
mill is ready for operation. An cleo
trio power line has recently been
completed to the property by the
Washington Water Power company
which will supply power for all pur-
poses. 1t is stated that an extensive
shoot Of lead ore has been opened il
the drift from the bottom of the shaft,
and the company expects to be able to
ship carload of concentrates per
week. 1t is only short distance to
the railroad, where all necessary ia
cilities are provided for loading the
cars. 1t is predicted that the renewal
of operations by the Idaho Knicker-
booker will be followed by consider
able activity on other properties on
Moon creek.

PINE CREEK OPERATORS
FORM AN ASSOCIATION
WILL COOPERATE IN ALL MAT.
TIERS OF COMMON
INTEREST.

The mining operators and owners of
Pine creek. recognizing the growing
importance of that section and the
many matters in which they have a
common interest, met In Kellogg last
week and organized the Pine Creek
Mine owners association. The organ
ization was effected BY the election of
the following directors: w. w. Papesh,
president of the Highland Surprise
Mining company; c. L. Bishop, mana
ger of the Douglas; Thomas Thwaite,
manager of the Constitution; NJ. ].
Sinclair, manager of the Nevada
Stewart; William Beaudry, manager
of the Stewart and connected with the
Denver The following officers were
elected by the directors: President, w.
w. Papesh; vice president, c. L. Bish-
OPP; secretary-treasurer, M. J. Sinclair.
The meeting was we'll attended, and
there was every evidence of spirit
of cooperation that can not fail to
prove of great benefit in advancing
the interests Of Pine creek.
Help Railroad Project.
One enterprise in particular will re-
ceive active support of the organized
mine owners, and that is the construc-
ton of a railroad by the O.-W. r. & N
1t is generally accepted that the COM
pany has already awarded a contract
for building this branch, but unless
there is direct pressure of the right
kind brought to bear, il is possible
that the company may find an excuse
to delay actual construction. To meet
such contingency, the Pine Creek
Mine Owners association will mako q
careful compilation of the tonnage Of
the mines of Pine creek now available
to a railroad and close and conserva-
tive estimates of future business. The
association can also be of great SER
vice in securing right Of way conces-
sions, which is always a source Of
difficulty and delay to railroad COM
panies when dealing direct with land |
owners. There are numerous other |
matters that will develop as time goes
on which can be handled to the ad-
vantage of all concerned by the asso-
citation.

cent lead. This was followed by an
other crosscut 275 feet east, which
duplicated the first showing with the
difference that the ore was of lower
grade, but still of commercial value.
Later a drift was started on the ledge
from the surface, a few feet from the
lower tunnel and was extended to the
first crosscut, about 35 feet. This was
all in ore, much Of it of shipping
grade. This and the crosscuts men
toned proved a continuous ore shoot
for 300 feet with an average width of
8 feet. The ledge is also reported to
have been definitely located on the
surface by open cuts and shafts for ap-
1000 feet east.
Looks Like a Great Mine.
A showing such as is disclosed on
the Chicago Boston, IL located in
more favored section Of the district,
would have created sensation, but
being in a section that has long been
placed under taboo by the wise ones,
it has attracted comparatively little
attention Now that 1t has passed in
to the control of people who have the
means to develop it, the Miner pre-
diets that it will prove one of the big
mines of the district The lead ore
has every indication Of being large
and permanent ore shoot, while the
success which has attended the devel-
opment of similar gray coppre veins
further west in the dry ore belt JUS
titles the belief that. the original vein
will prove a silver Bonanza. The ad-
vent of the Days in that section is the
first appearance Of large capital in
that hitherto forbidden territory, and
the results of their work will be
watched with unusual interest.

ELECTRIC POWER FOR MINES.
Figures for Consumption in This Dis.
tret During 1915.

An article in the General Electric
Review for the current month by Ben
Olsen discusses the use of electricity
by the mines of the Occur d'Alene dis
trict in 1915. The writer deals mainly
with the power used by the Bunker
Hin 4 Sullivan, but some interesting
figures are also given on the con-
sumption of power and its cost by the
mines of the entire district, Accord
ing to Mr. Olsen, in 1908. when 200
900 tons of ore was mined, the power
consumed by the Bunker Hill & Sui
Ivan was 2SS,000 kilowatt hours per
year: in 1915, when $4,000 tons was
mined the company consumed 10
$4,000 kilowatt hours. During the
intervening years the substation ca
pacity had increased Is times.
For the entire district the writer
states that during the year 1915 the
electric power consumed by all the
mines, which is understood to in
clude the smaller development COM
panies. was 29,50S.711 kilowatt hours,
for which was paid $214,190 Until
within recent years the district was
served exclusively by the Washing
ton Water Power company, but the
Montana Power company has now be-
come an important factor in the dis
tributiOn of power

Much Interest in District.
Announcement of the Jack Torres
and AL Sommers boxing contest to be
staged at the new Howarth hall the
night of March has been made, and
it will be the second one of the high
class boxing contests that Promoter
Frank Clancy will offer the boxing
fans of the Occur d'Alene district.
AL Sommers, the Portland welter-
weight, fought great battle here two
weeks ago with Dick Wells, this being
the opening card Of Promoter Clancys
new club, and in securing Jack Torres,
the Mexican Mist no better card
could have been arranged
Both Torres and Sommers are we'll
known to the local boxing fans and
both are boys with a world Of class,
which indicates that hard battle will
be on when they face each other.
Torres battles here with Frank Bar
rieau and Johnny Tillman still are
fresh in the minds of the local sport
ing fraternity, and, after seeing Som
mers perform with Wells, a large
crowd is assured.

looks richer than ever, especially in
one place (above chute No. 10 from
the 90O-foot leveD, where we have
feet of solid galena averaging about
IS per cent in lead. A raise from the
9O0-foot to the 700-foot level has just
been completed and discloses rich ore
all the way. Our ore reserves from
the 7O0-foot level to the surface have
scarcely been touched
Ore in Wine.
Last December we decided on sink
ing winze from the 11O0-foot level,
which level up to that time was prac-
tically barren. This winze Is now
down about IS feet. Owing to the I'M
usually hard quartz and limestone in
the vein this Wine has been sunk at
an average of only 10 feet per week.
At depth of 70 feet We encountered
galena of commercial quantity, which
has since increased in quantity and
quality until at present the whole bot
tom of the Wine is in very good ore,
indicating the top of a big ore shoot.
The vein matter is not nearly as hard
and we ought to be able to sink about
three feet a day from now on.
Crosscut to Second Vein.
Surface indications north of the
shaft point to the presence of a paral
lei vein about 225 feet north of our
main vein. About year ago q cross
cut was driven north from the station
Of the 900-foot level for distance of
about rs feet. This crosscut has now
been extended for the purpose OF ex-
ploring this vein and is at present 1870
feet north Of the station. Taking the
usual dip into consideration this vein
should be cut within Is feet. Heavy
iron naturalization, several strngers
of quartz and a great flow of water In
the face of the crosscut indicate that
the vein should not be very far off"
