The main tunnel, which attains a
depth of 500 feet. is 5000 feet long. The
first vein in Intercepted at $500 feet.

GOOD VALUES SHOWN.

The old Banner vein was worked out
above the 500 foot level, but a shaft
has been sunk on it to a depth of As
feet and it shows good values all of
the way. There is also a parallel vein
known as the Golden Gate and work
done on it shows values similar to
those found in the Banner The Crown
Point vein is about 500 feet from the
Banner and also runs parallel
crosscut is being driven to it from the
main tunnel. 1t is now over 80 feet
and II is expected it will cut the vein
on the 500 level at most any time.
About 80 men are now being worked
at the property. ON an average 700
pounds of Whitley and 300 pounds of
flotation concentrates are being made
daily. The production of the mine is
being crowded in order to take ad-
vantage of the high price of silver The
concentrates will be hauled 10 Ster-
man, the nearest railroad point, a dis
lance of 40 miles and 1t is expected
that a carload shipment will be made
in probably a month.
According to reports the old Banner
and the Crown Point. which consist Of
in silver. The claims are about %
miles northeast of Idaho City and
when Mr.. Reese went in last January
he had to break the road through deep
snow. He Immediately began CLEANING
out the old workings and replacing the
tunnel track. He says the old mine is
now in shape TO begin to earn money
and to come up to its record of 40
years ago.
Steam power is used to operate the
machinery. The engine is being fired
with cord wood that was cut over 80
years ago. About IS cords were on
hand when the mine was shut down.
Shortly before the property was TAX
en- over by Charles Hussey and asso-
ciates it passed into the hands of w.
II. Estabrook and Vivian A. Thorne.
They did some development and ship
