Twenty thousand salmon trout is not a very common sight, even in waters which are prolific in fish, yet that was what Russ Downing of Nome saw recently while working on the Kobuk Fish were never so plentiful and the capacity of the Mid night Sun cannery, operated by Sig Arntzen, formerly of Bellingham, and a number of Portland capitalists, was taxed to handle the fish. This pack is worth ten dollars case and the pack this year surpassed all records. The salmon pack of the Midnight Sun cannery, the farthest north cannery in the world was sent to the States, together with 1,5OO barrels of salt fish. MT.

BROOMCORN MINE FREE OF
WATER; is VERY RICH

The Droomcorn mine, on the state
line six miles west Of Baxter Springs,
is free of water and men are at work
again after shutdown Of five weeks.
After all other plans had failed the
Commerce Royalty Company, owners
of the lease, placed an eight inch cleo
trio pump in the shaft and the water
was out in an hour and half.
Water has been pumped for two
and one-half years at the Broomcorn
and a great deal of money has been
spent but it is believed that it is one
of the very rich possessions Of the
Commerce Royalty Company and well
worth the expenditure.
The drills showed very little ore
from $50 feet to 2S0 feet but as good
looking stuff is being taken out at 225
feet it is believed that the reason that
the cuttings showed nothing very
good was that the water washed them
away.
The management looks for the eX-
tro good stuff at $50 feet but the men
expect it at 260.

EAGLE-PICHER COMPANY
ARE GIVING MEN CHANCE

Much has been said of the heart
lessness of great corporations of the
magnitude of the Eagle-Pcher Com
pany, but it seems that, somewhere
within the organization there must be
men who have hearts. Possibly there
are men at the head of the great or
ganization who have been poor and
have not entirely forgotten it, at any
rate they will, in all probability, make
millionaires of several of their men,

LUCKY JENNIE TO OPERATE
ABOUT FIRST OF THE MONTH

The Lucky Jennie Mining Company
has almost completed the 300-ton
mill that is being rebuilt at Hooker
vile and the plant will 90 into opera
ton regularly between the 1st and
9th Of November.
The power Of the new Lucky Jen-
ME will be electricity. The company
arranged for that power before the
current became too scarce for the
Empire Company to take on more
plants.
Water for milling will be obtained
from the Hockerville deep well which
is only a few rods away.
The Lucky Jennie is on the Hook
erville Streak and is one of the SEN
sational propositions of that rich Sec
ton of the field. A splendid run of
ore, 40-feet thick, has been opened up
in the ground about the shaft and an
other, 60-feet high, is known to lie
beneath it.
w. F. Cooper; of Ada, Oklahoma,
secretary and treasurer and general
manager of the Lucky Jennie, is a
picturesque character. He came to
the field without any knowledge of
the mining game but was one Of the
few new operators who realized it.
He purchased lease and made.a sub
stantial payment from his own pocket,
organized Il company and began at
once to finance the deal.
With the 300-ton plant completed
and a splendid mine developed Mr..
Cooper has the satisfaction Of know
ing that no officer of the company
has received dollar rs salary. He,
having been successful sawmill OPP
orator for years is well acquainted
with machinery and is accustomed to
handling large numbers of men and
big business.
To make up for inexperience in the
mining industry Mr.. Cooper has Sc
cured the services of George Sullivan,
q member of the firm of Sullivan and
Williams, who own the first lease and
is therefore interested in the success
of the company and its property, who
will superintend the development
work and the mill operation indefi-
nitely.
The Ada man is rare combination,
school teacher, real estate dealer and
sawmill man and seems to combine
the good qualities of all in his present
position.
He is one of the few new operators
who seem to have grasped the real
spirit of the mining game.

REDsKIN MILL MAKES
RECORD RUN IN HOUR

The Redskin Mining Company made
seven tons of ore in a one hour run
ut the new RedslIin Mill Saturday.
The record Is considered remark
able for a new mill or any other kind
of u mill.
The Redskin mine began OPP
Grating its sludge department this
morning, which was run by oil engine
power, night and day. This mill has
had another phenomenal week in pro-
duction as the recovery shows even a
larger percentage than last week. The
record run of ID cars or ore, weight
about one thousand pounds each, was
taken from the jigs in one hours run.

LUCKY O. X. BEATS LAST
MONTHS GOOD RECORD

The Lucky o. X. mill at Hockerville
has beaten its September record this
month with week yet to operate.
In September 220 tons of lead and
S33 tons of jack were made but this
months record was equalled in three
weeks, although not quite so big a
percentage of the output was lead.
At the present rate it looks like 75O
tons of concentrates for the o. X. for
the month of October, which isn't bad
for a plant that has been completed
a year and not operated until "The
Man of Mystery, P. W. George, agent
for Fred Burbridge, took it over and
put the project across.
