Telephone bells rang mistakenly
at TIE White House yesterday
ABOUT 1 o'clock: home-going
government employees clustered
exc.tedly around the garden rail-

arrived, preceded by the fire
chief: the gates were thrown
open, and soon streams of water
were being poured upon the face
and sides of the historic old
mansion.
For about i've minutes there
was a general appearance that
there would be Something do

sence from the White House of

But the only thing that was
happening was that the front and
walls Of the mansion were being
washed with a fire engine hose,
preparatory to repainting.

aeement and the showing exposed on
the efforts win be amply rewarded.
The main crosscut has been driven $50
feet and has cut three veins and Is
expected to break into the fourth any
day. All of these veins have been ex-
posed on the surface. some of the out
crops carrying values in lead and zinc
and all making a showing that JUS
titles deep exploration. In addition to
these, blind lead was cut in cross
cutting from the third to the fourth
vein, which proved to be about feet
vide and carries more or less lead
and zinc and heavily mineralized
throughout. The course of this vein
indicates that it joins the third vein
AT point probably 60 feet east, and
Mr.. Shannon is thehefore drifting on
the latter, believing that body Of ore
will be encountered at the junction.
Amazon M nhattan Vein.
The first vein encountered in the
crosscut is feet in width, and while
it justifies further exploration it is not
as extensively mineralized as those
subsequently cut. The second vein is
about 100 feet from the first and is
% or 80 feet wide, mineralized
throughout and shows considerable
zinc. This vein is believed to be
Identical with the Amazon Manhattan,
lying east of the Four Timbers, and
part of the Interstate Callahan hold
ings. A large body of lead zinc ore
has been opened up on this property.
The third vein is about $50 feet from
the second and shows considerable
zinc, and upon which a drift Is now
being run Between this and the
blind lead numerous stringers carry
irg lead and zinc We're encountered.

.|NTERMOUNTA|N NINE
MUCH ORE IN SIGHT
EXPECTS TO BE ABLE TO SHIP
TEN CARLOADS PER
MONTH.

H. H. Phipps, secretary treasurer of
the Intermountain Mining company,
near Iron Mountain, Mont, inspected
the property last week and upon his
return to Spokane gave a very flat
tering account of the ore showing and
the prospect for profitable operation.
The long and severe winter has seri-
ously interfered with milling opera
ton and shipments but development
work has progressed steadily and the
mine is now reported in splendid con-
dition for steady production. Chester
o. Lawrence for many years foreman
of the Hecla, is manager of the Inter-
mountain, In commenting on the
condition of the mine and the pros
poets for the immediate future, Mr.
Phipps said:
Ore Ready for Shipment.
Ten carloads of concentrated ore
and five~carloads of crude ore are
ready for shipment and will be moved
as soon as cars are provided. This
ore has a value of $4,000 net to the
carload, according to the rate of set
Element on other lots sold The out
put from this time forward should
average 10 carloads a month, as Man
ager Lawrence has opened slopes and
made sufficient room generally for
work on an adequate scale. Mr.. Law
renee has opened the ground well in
advance of immediate requirements
so should be in position to proceed
without interruption in the movement
of ore. The railroad had been cleared
of snow except for a mile when we
left the property.
I'm the original territory between
the shaft and the fault and above the
400-foot level we measured 10000 tons
of ore, but l will say 10000 tons to be
safe. In territory beyond the fault
and above the same level there is
probably $4,000 tons. The presence of
this body has been revealed for long
distance on the 20O-foot level. 1t was
disclosed on the 400-foot level by the
strike made in the period of our in
spection.
Two Other Veins.
1.-THE mill is being operated day and
night. The product of the jigs is av-
eraging Is per cent copper and the
tables 20 per cent. The crude ore av-
erages IL per cent.
"A station has been cut on the 400
foot level to admit a new pump that
left Chicago March 20 and that is ex-
rected in day or two. The power
requirements of this pump will be less
than that of the one in USE
aside from the resources blocked
out on two to three sides and the vol
ume revealed beyond the fault, the
property contains other possibilities
that have not been exploited. These
are indicated by two great cappings,
both covering different veins. One of
these bodies can be reached by $50
feet of prosecuting, the other in 500
feet"

DENlNE AIRCRAFT COMPANY.
A Local Organization That Promises
to Assume Large Proportions.

The war with Germany has given a
great impetus to the manufacture of
airplanes, for they have become one
Of the most important features Of
military operations and are now re-
garded as absolutely indispensable to
success in war. 1t is evident, there
fore, from the certain demand that
will come from governments, in con-
nection with the fact that navigation
of the air will soon e be adopted in
peaceful pursuits that the manu-
facture of airplanes is destined to
grow at a rate that may duplicate the
phenomenal record Of automobiles. 1t
is for these reasons that the organi-
zation of a company in this city for
the manufacture of an air craft that
seems to possess advantages that will
win Immediate recognition has at
tracted much attention among men
that will yield large returns. The
Denine Aircraft company was organ
i7ed by Wallace men, the incorpora-
tors and officers being Martin A. De-
nine, president; Earl G. Jackman,
vice president; Martin G. Johanson,
secretary treasurer. Mr.. Denine holds
the patent for the craft that will be
manufactured by the company, Mr..
Jackman is a mechanic of ability and
wide experience, while the business
end of the company is being handled
by Mr. Johanson, who is well and
favorably known to the people of this
district. The company is incorporat-
ed for $25OO00 with shares at the par
value of 81. The stock of the COM

depth of 500 feet, compressor mo-
tor and S-inch air pipe. A station is
being cut for the hoist, which will be
situated at point 500 feet below the
surface and $50 feet east of the east
line of the Hercules. The hoist will
be run by air compressed outside and
the compressor will be driven by mo-
