RAINBOW CO. WILL SINK
ON LEAD ZINC ORE SHOOT
COPPER ORE IN FACE OF DRIFT
ALSO WORK ON RAIN
BOW NO. I.

The Rainbow Mining company will
start sinking on a very promising
shoot of lead-zinc ore soon after the
first of the year. according to a state
ment by George Austin. of Spokane,
manager OF the company. who was in
the city last Monday. The company
owns two properties and the one here
referred to is called Rainbow No. 2
and is situated on the Little North
Fork, some 10 or II miles from its
junction with the main stream. Work
was discontinued about three months
ago, and at that time the drift had
been extended 1850 feet and the face
had reached point under the best
surface showing and at a vertical
depth of 500 feet Some very high
grade copper ore was encountered a
short time before work was suspend
ed samples running from 16 to 30 per
cent the ore being chalcopyrite, and
Mr.. Austin says there is about IS
inches of this class of ore now in the
face.

IDAHO MINES LEASING

Of the Idaho Mines Leasing company

Of the Frisco group and owned by
the Federal Mining & Smelling COM

pany has a lease on all ground above
No. g. and it is from this that the ore
will come to the mill soon to be com
pleted. The mill will have a daily ca
pacity of so tons and the leasing COM
pany expects to be able to keep it run
nng at capacity at least two shifts
and probably fun time. A loading
bin will be constructed at the railroad
track near the Tamarack mill and the
concentrates will be delivered to the
bin by a gravity cable tramway 500
feet in length.
Ore for Three Years in Sight.
1t was learned from one of the Of
fcers of the company yesterday that
it had sufficient lead-silv ore prac-
tically blocked out to keep the mill
running at capacity for three years,
While the possibilities of further ore
developments are great This does
not take into account the zinc ore for
which there is no profitable market at
this time. Within the ground under
lease there is a large body of zinc ore
that will no doubt be profitably min
ed when conditions become more
nearly normal throughout the country.
Samples of the lead silver ore indi-
cate a high grade mill feed, with con
siderable ore that may be sorted and

to average four feet wide and to be |
several hundred feet in length Near /

Within the next week work will be

been run easterly on this level for
about 400 feet considerably further
than was necessary to run on the lev

which it is believed is not far away.
However. work was discontinued in
the crosscut a week or ten days ago

Dear SANTA AlaNS-
I'm writing you
Cause Christmas always makes me
blue
know ! am not little boy
TO whom a horn or ball brings JOY
But though / play a manly part
] guess l am stil a boy at heart,
Cause Christmas morn l rush to see
What Santa Claus has brought to me;
And there l always seem to find
a motley throng from friends of mine;
German knife, some awful ties,
A calendar to make me wise.
Socks too small and gay of hue,
(You wouldn't wish them given to you).
Boston carriers, whisl brooms Geei
Where do you get what you give me?
Nose rags! though they look like linen
When used they prove to be quite
thnen;
Books you'd not the pages cut
Unless you really were a nut;
And other things the poor folks give
just to help the store folks live.
Now Santa, can't you have a heart
And this year do your little part,
And when your reindeers shake their
hoofs
And climb across Mt Pleasant roofs,
IN be looking hard for you
ats just before you reach the zoo)
If you haven't time to stop
Will meet you at the top
OF the chimney, and Santa leave
These few things on Christmas eve:
A big quart bottle of whisky" straight
And two of wine would be first rate
And one of gin and two of rum
Then my Christmas won't be bum;
And III not worry what others do
But spend my Christmas praisng you.

THE FORMAL opening of the
Morning club yesterday evening
was perhaps the greatest social
event in the history of Mullan,
one in which the people from all parts
OF the Occur d'Alene district partici-
pated and enjoyed to the limit. But
back of the social phase, the affair
had a significance with respect to the
Industrial conditions of the district
that must be accepted as an omen of
good for the future. The erection of
this magnificent club building by the
Federal Mining e Smelling company
is direct REPUTATION of the charge
that corporations and other large en-
ployers of labor have no interest in
their employees beyond securing the
maximum amount of work for the
minimum amount of pay 1t shows
that the heads of large industrial en-
terprises are concerned regarding the
welfare of their employees outside the
hours of labor, and that this concern
extends to the people of the commun-
ity whose prosperity depends upon
these enterprises. 1t is a pleasure to
note that this attitude on the part of
the mining companies is not new in /
this district but it is true that no
company has ever made such a large /
and direct expenditure for the sole |
purpose of contributing to the pleas
ure advancement contentment and
general welfare of its employees and
the people of the community. The
original plan of the company was to
build club house near the mine for
the exclusive use of its employees, but
upon representations made by the en-
terprising business men of MuIlan,
who offered the company a desirable
site for the building in the center of
town, the original plan was abandon
ed and the club was placed in Mullan
with its privileges extended to the
people of the community. The insti-
tuition will ever remain a Joy to the
Morning employees and the people of
Mullan, and monument to the liber-
ality and progressive policy of the
Federal management.

The building stands upon a com

ter of Mullan. 1t has a frontage of 60
feet and a depth of 127. On the right
of the main entrance off from the
broad hallway is a rest room for wo-

name implies. Easy chairs, inviting
settees, handsomely curtained. with
pictures on the walls representing
real works of art, a great fireplace
completing the air of quiet comfort
On the opposite side of the hall is
the mems rest room. with handsome
upholstered mission furnishings and
also a great fireplace. Back of this is
the reading room supplied with lead

yond this a writing room with walnut
desks supplied with club stationery
At the end of the hallway is the audi
forum which will be used for moving
pictures and other entertainments
and is also designed for gymnasium
and dancing. The chief features of
the basement are four fine bowling
alleys and on the west side a large
billiard. pool and card room. On the
third floor a banquet hall extends
across the entire front, which may be
made into two rooms by a folding
partition. Adjacent to this is a kit
chen provided with electric range and
all modern culinary facilities. On
the west side of this floor are two
rooms divided by folding partition
which will be used for educational
purposes, especially for the teaching
of the English language to foreign |
born citizens and instruction in the
principles of Americanism. The in

While this is a most promising

soon entered a shoot of ore that prov
