HEAVY LOSER.
Pine Greek Man Bears Bad Luck With
Characteristic Cheerfulness.

Perhaps the man who suffered the
heaviest personal loss through the re-
cent flood was Theodore Brown, of
Pine creek. The high water about
Christmas had forced his family to
leave home, and when that subsidized
without serious consequences they re-
turned believing that the worst was
over. A few days later, however it
was necessary to move again. and on
the evening of the goth Mr.. Brown
saw his home of many years, sub
stantial log building OF five rooms.
swept away, and with it piano. two
ranges and other household goods
which it was found impossible to
move. During the night his barn went
out, and with it three tons of hay
and ton of grain. Two horses and
five head of cattle were moved to high
ground. A wagon, two buggies,
cutter and a stump puller went down
also. Next to the home itself, the
loss most keenly felt by Mr.. and Mrs.
Brown was 65 Rhode Island Red chic
kens. Mr.. Brown and his family are
now stopping at the Northern Light.
A new home will be built as soon as
lumber can be delivered.

NEW JERSEY ZINC.
Gets Government Contract for Prime
Western Spelter at $751;.

An announcement has been made at
Washington to the effect that the
navy department has awarded con-
tract to the New Jersey Zinc company
for 1000 tons of prime western spelter
at $787 ". Most of the bids rendered
says the report, were for over $500.
This is interesting as tending to es-
tablish the present real spelter mar
ket, so far as the government require
ments are concerned, says the Joplin
Globe. 1t may be taken for granted
that ordinary buyers would hardly be
able to obtain any considerable
amount of spelter for less than $500
II the government. on competitive
market, is paying $7.S7 ".
But it is also interesting to local
producers for another reason. When
the original zinc committee for the
government, a subcommittee working
under the metals committee of the de-
partlnent of national defense, had up
the matter of fixing spelter prices
some months ago, it was considered
that the New Jersey Zinc company
was represented on the committee only
as a producer of the higher grades of
spelter. Now it comes in as COM
petitor, and victorious competitor for
prime western metal

A Troublesome Carpet.
(The Youths Companion


A member of the diplomatic corps
at Washington tells story of Per-
sian who came to the United States
on special mission
Among those who entertained him
was wealthy American, who invited
the Oriental to his country house. On
the morning of the guests arrival the
American visited him in his apart
ment, and was astonished to see him
hopping about the floor in the strang-
est way imaginable. The host VEN
tured to ask the reason for this Curl
GUS action. The Persian replied;
you see, this carpet is green, with
pink roses here and there. Green is
a sacred color with us, SO l am obliged
to hop from rose to rose. 1t is good
exercise, but rather fatiguing."

PFIRMAN GOES EAST.
President of Success Mining Company

to Confer With Smelling Company.
Franklin Pfrman, president of the
Success Mining company. left this
week for Cleveland. While no official
announcement could be obtained re-
garding his mission, it is believed that
it is for the purpose of seeking mod
ification of the Success ore contract
favorable terms. The Grasselli Chem
ical company, Of Cleveland, holds a
contract for three years for the zinc
product of the Success. This contract
has about eighteen months to run.
The mine has been operated at loss
for more than a year, or almost from
the time this contract was closed.
1t was about that time that the price
os zinc began its descent to lower
levels where 1t has been ever since,
the exacting terms of the contract
and the lower price combining to re-
duce the margin of profit. 1t is un-
derstood that F. Fl. Skeels, the engin-
eer who has been engaged in making
"a thorough examination of the mine,
has completed his work, but no
intimation has been given of what his
report will be. The departure of Mr..
Pfrman presumably to seek more
favorable revision of the contract
would indicate that the condition of
the mine is such that the new man
agement believes that more fav-
orable contract would enable the COM
pany to operate at a profit.

GEOLOGY OF SUCCESS.
Interesting Discovery That May Throw
Liaht on Much Mooted Question.

Stanley X. Moore. engineer or the
success Mining company. has a letter
in the last issue of the Mining and
Scientific Press in which he refers to
the conflicting opinions of biologists
on the priority of deposition of ore and
granite at the Success and refers to a
sample he has obtained which ap-
pears to prove that the granite was
there first. Mr.. Moore's letter is in
teresting and is here reproduced:
There has been considerable con-
troversy as to priority of the ore and
monzonite locally known as granite
and will be so designated hereafter)
in the Success mine, in the Occur
d'Alenes. f. L. Ransome of the u. s..
geological survey in professional paper
81, took the view that the granite was
there first Oscar H. Hershey. after
an extensive examination, concluded
that the granite was post mineral. and
so expressed himself in a paper in the
Mining and Scientific Press about two
lowed this with an examination about
a year ago and confirmed Mr.. Ran
some. Mr.. Umpleby based his con-
illusions upon the replacement of the
granite by ore, which he determined
by sections under the microscope. Not
being a geologist | am unfamiliar with
the proper weight to be attached to
microscopic work, but. from physi-
cal point of view, there always APP
peared to me to be doubt, since, in
all specimens Of granite containing
stringers Of ore, these are invariably
a continuation of quartzite stringers
partly replaced, and the question al
ways comes to my mind whether these
stringers might not be a replacement
of quartzite stringers in the granite,
the quartzite having been entirely re-
placed, ] have, however, recently OBJ
tanned "a specimen of nodule of gran
lite entirely surrounded by ore. A
chunk of apparently solid ore was
broken open and found to contain a
nodule of granite nearly as large as
a hens egg 1t was taken from a
spot where numerous stringers of
granite extended into the ore. The
neck of granite which connected this
nodule to the parent body must have
been wholly replaced by ore. This
seems to me to give conclusive proof
that the granite was there first. II
] am mistaken | am willing to be cor
rected."

AJAX.
Will Soon Crosscut Vein From Shaft
-Oom Paul Crosscut.


-Oom Paul Crosscut.
The shaft which is being sunk by
the Ajax Mining company from the
Moonlight tunnel is now down about
zoo feet and a crosscut will be started
to the vein next week The shaft fol-
lows the course of the vein and only
short distance from it and it will
be necessary to run probably only
fifteen or twenty feet to reach it.
Some galena is being found in the
shaft On the tunnel level from
which the shaft is sunk there is prac-
tlcally continuous shoot of ore for
several hundred feet, and in view of
the big ore developments in the Her.
cules few hundred feet to the west,
there is feeling of much confidence
that the exploration of the vein from
this shaft will disclose an important
ore body: The Dom Paul crosscut is
encountering a little quartz and ga
lena. Some 800 or 400 feet remains
to be run to reach the vein on that
level, according to estimate, but as ii
is about 1900 feet below the upper
workings, a variation in the dip of
the vein might materially shorten the
distance estimated to be run

RED MONARCH.
High Water Did Considerable Damage
to the Company's Property.


The Red Monarch mine, situated
near the head of Missoula gulch, a
tributary of Beaver creek, was over
run by torrent of water which did
considerable damage to buildings and
forced the company to suspend opera
tons Repairs are being rapidly
made and 1t is expected that a re-
sumption will be made by the last of
the week The company holds a large
group of claims through which run
several known veins The first Of
these was cut several months ago at
a distance of 1900 feet, making good
showing of zine and lead. Drifting
east has been 600 feet, the vein in
places being over 40 feet wide and
shows continuous stringers and
punches of ore. 1t Is stated that this
drift may extend $500 feet further be-
fore reaching the end line. The cross
cut is also being extended and is now
800 feet from the first vein, and there
are indications that the second vein
is not far away, In speaking of the
Red Monarch President Conrad Wolfe
says
The work has been prosecuted Wig

started Fl months ago until last week.
