In any event it's n big one, as such
things go. OF course, some of the big
national parks with their thousands of
square miles of wild-life sanctuary are
bigger. But LOusiana's refuge Is
quite big enough to accomplish its
purpose. And geographically it is just
exactly where it IS needed. 1t fronts

WORK ON RED MONARCH
TO START IN TEN DAYS
MAY SINK ON ORE SHOWING IN
FIRST VENT. H. KEEFER
IN CHARGE.

T. H. Keefer, of Carbonite. has been
appointed superintendent of the Red
Monarch Consolidated Mining COM
pany and announces that work will be-
gin on the property in about ten days,
or upon his return from Montana,
where he has been called on mining
business. The property has been idle
since last summer or fall, and the an
nuoncement of a resumption is an
other encouraging indication of a re-
vival of mining activity. The work.
ings of the Red Monarch are on Mis-
soula gulch, about mile from the
railroad at CarbOnite. The company
owns about forty claims covering
section possessing great possibilities of
mineral development. A crosscut tun-
mel has been run south from Missoula
gulch for a distance of over 1000 feet
and has cut three strong veins. all of
which justify development. The first
of these veins was cut a little less than
5000 feet from the portal and has been
drifted upon several hundred feet east
erly, the vein showing considerable
lead silver ore almost continuously.
Raise on Ore.
In the drift a short distance from
the crosseut a raise was started on
few inches of ore which soon widened
to more than two feet of almost clean
galena. This raise was extended about
rs feet and resulted in a most en-
ore showing. 1t is possible
that when work begins on the prop
erty that a shaft will be sunk on this
ore to prove its extent though Mr.
Keefer stated that it has not been
definitely decided what the nature of
the work will be. What ever the plan
adopted 1T is probable that the vein
will be further explored by drifting.
The Red Monarch company has a
good plant for development, including
compressor of large capacity, steel
happening outfit and ample accommo-
lations for employees. The company
