NORMAL SCHOOL NOTES

Two delightful luncheons were serv- ed in the domestic science rooms last week. Friday evening Miss Kelly gave a birthday party and dinner in honor of Miss Minnie Lintz. Among the delicious things served by the girls under Miss Berchtold was a birthday cake with sixteen candles on it. The news circulated around the campus and the students all hope that the next sixteen will be exceedingly happy and prosperously spent.
 Saturday evening Miss Lintz and Mrs. Noble entertained some of the faculty and friends with bridge par ty in Bury Hall. During the evening luncheon was served by the girls.
 Sunday morning R. H. Drake went to Los Angeles, where he was sum- moned by Mrs. Drake, who was to un- dergo an operation Tuesday. Mrs. Drake was ill for several weeks last winter and went to Los Angeles to re- cuperate. Word has not yet been re- ceived as to her condition. She and Mr. Drake both have the sympathy of the Normal people in her long illness. Sunday morning MT. Drake sent Ro- land Drake, Jr., to North Dakota with some friends who were passing through, to visit relatives there, prob. ably until school is out here.
 The girls of the Normal had plan gram on the tennis courts outdoors Wednesday, but the snow forced them to have it indoors. Last week the student body elected Miss Mable Hall as May queen. Miss Hall and all the girls were busy the latter part of last week and the first of this week work ing and practicing on thelr program. On Wednesday it was presented in the auditorium and despite the sud- den wintry spell preceding, it was a beautiful Interpretation of May and heralding of coming summer.
 Many preparations are being made for the accommodation of summer school students. Besides the housing question, the boarding and dining hall will probably be conducted as at pres cIlI UO dCCOHiIllOudte dll WHO VIII lN6 on the campus, probably between $50 and 400. Plans are being made to serve the others in cafeteria style. Mrs. Margaret Hanley, who has charge of the dining room, went to Phoenix last week to look over the cafeterias there.
 The Normal newspaper, The Pine, for the month of May will be ready for distribution on Monday or Tues day. This editor is featuring the Ju- nior class of the school. The Normal Annual will be out the first part of next month. Everyone at the Normal concerned with the getting out of the Annual has been busy for the last few weeks getting in the last of their material and ready to go to press. The Annual staff promises the school this year book that will be interest ing and prized by all and something superior to many of the annuals of the past.
 Next week is the time set for the big northern Arizona track meet to be held at the Normal The meet will require two days, Friday and Saturday for the races, games, shot putting, discus throwing, pole vault ing, jumping and other contests be- tween the northern Arizona schools.

The pupils and faculty of the Emer- son school were very much shocked at the sad news of the tragic death of Gilmore Van Zee, which occurred on Wednesday morning as the result of his heroic effort in attempting to res cue his mother, sister and brothers from the flames of their burning home. In his heroic attempt to res- cue those nearest and dearest to him he showed his love and devotion as brother and son, and sacrificed his own life for their safety. Those who knew him best would not have ex- pected him to fail in this hour of need, and in testimony of his cour- age and willingness to sacrifice he laid down his own life. Such are the qualities of Christian. Such are the characteristics of well-gnunded ideals of manhood.
 Gilmore was an exceptional stu dent, keen and alert, conscientious and always willing to do his assigned tasks. His instructors had great ad- miration for his manner and general attitude toward school work. His presence in the classrooms and on the playground will be missed, but more than these, is the loss of a young life of high ideals and possibil- ities for good, in the bloom of man. hood. Oh, could Fate have stayed have stayed it's cruel hand so that this young life might mature to man. hood with all the possibilities for ser vice!

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES RE-
PORTED COMING.

Repairing the Sunset road above
the Rex was quickly followed by the
movement of ore from the Sunset
mine to the loading platform at Bum
station at the forks of Nine Mile 1t
is stated that there is now some 200
tons of ore in the bins ready for ship
ment and that large tonnage is
available to be mined on the tunnel
level George X. Garrett has the con-
tract for hauling the ore, using A.
horse team with wagon and trailer
and brings down a load of about five
tons. A car is now being loaded at
Bum for shipment to the Bunker Hill
smelter The ore is galena with a
low percentage of zinc and is said to
carry from 80 to 40 ounces in silver.
Owned by Senator Clark.
The Sunset mine is owned by ex-
Senator w. \. Clark, of Butte, who
has expended large sum in develop
ing it, having sunk a shaft to a depth
of 1000 feet and opened up the vein on
several levels and disclosing much
ore Some two years ago work was
discontinued and all equipment was
shipped to Butte, which was taken to
mean that work had been permanent
ly abandoned. However, few
months ago A H. Bachman, who has
long been connected with the Clark
mining interests at Butte, came over
and it was stated that he had taken
a lease on the Sunset and would pro-
coed to mine the ore on the tunnel
level A few days later w. c. Slider

terests, came over and visited the
mine and still later an engineer on
the Clark staff spent a day or two at
the Sunset mine This week it was
learned that Senator Clark himself is
expected over before long. These

At recent meeting of the directors
of the Valentine Mining company it
was decided to place on the market a
block of treasury stock as a means Of
providing funds for developing the
property. This plan is proving sue
cessful and resumption of work is
assured at an early date. The Valen-
tine is situated or miles south of
DebOrgia, Mont. A crosscut has been
started to the vein and is now follow

BULLION EAST DRIFT
HAS A FULL FACE OF
EXCELLENT COPPER ORE

The best ore that has been
found in the Bullion mine was
struck by the last round Tuesday,
disclosing four feet of ore in the
face of the east drift and which is
pronounced to be the best that has
been found in the mine. This in
formation was obtained through
William Stevens, an employee of
the Bullion. who came over yes
terday afternoon. The east drift
is a continuation of the main tun-
mel in which a long ore shoot has
already been developed Upon
resuming work at the Bullion last
spring it was decided to extend
the drift east upon the theory
that more and better ore would be
found as depth was gained under
the high divide between Idaho and
Montana The grade of the ore
soon improved, but about the
time Manager Taylor left for
Portland the ore had pinched
down until there was very little in
evidence This continued until
probably 20 feet had been driven
or until last Tuesday. when as
stated the last round broke into an
ore shoot that fills the face of the
drift pronounced the best show
ing that has been made in Bullion
Mr.. Stevens left samples of the
strike with John F. Ferguson, who
will have assays made today

Arrange for Development Of Property
Near Wallace.

near wallace.
Patrick McGovern. one of the old
time residents of Wallace, has return
ed and is making arrangements to
start development of the Shoshone
group of claims extending across Nine
Mile a short distance outside the city
limits. Development of the property
up to this time has been on the west
side of the canyon. with conditions
favorable for an ore body The claims
on that side, however. conflict with
Northern Pacific land, and as Mr.. Nc
Govern has been unable to reach
satisfactory agreement with the com
pany, he has been forced to discOn-
tinue work on that side. He proposes
now to begin work on the east side of
the canyon, where the conditions are
regarded fully as favorable for finding
commercial ore. The property is
owned by the Shoshone Mining COM
pany of which Mr.. McGovern is the
controlling owner.

Crosscut Has Now Been Advanced
Almost 1000 Feet.
4. c. Bixby, manager of the Ajax
Mining company, was in the city on
Tuesday. He stated that the big
crosscut is being pushed ahead at a
satisfactory rate, two shifts working
and making about $50 feet per month.
The crosscut has now been advanced
something more than 1900 feet The
face is in Moonlight ground, but con-
siderable distance remains to be run
to cut the Moonlight vein, which will
be at a depth of about 500 feet below
the Moonlight tunnel The upper de-
velopment of the Ajax was accom-
plshed through the Moonlight tunnel,
and from that level the vein was ex-
plored by shaft to a depth of 300 feet,
resulting in showing up quite an eX-
tensive body of commercial ore. The
crosscut now being run will cut the
Ajax vein 500 feet below the lowest
workings and much confidence is felt
that a body of ore will be found that
will make the Ajax a big producing
mine. In addition to this much desir-
ed result the Ajax tunnel, the portal
of which is a short distance above
Burke, will explore much other
ground of great promise, thus making
it an enterprise of first Importance

HYPOTHEEK EQUIPMENT
MODERN AND EFFICIENT
EVERY DEVELOPMENT FACILITY
AND OUTLOOK GOOD FOR
BIG ORE SHOOT.

Work at the Hypotheek is being
watched with much interest in these
days and the outlook is regarded de-
cidedly favorable to the discovery Of
a new ore body. Since resuming un-
derground work few weeks ago the
drift to the east has been extended
more than IS feet. making the total
distance from the crosscut about 200
feet. Two shifts are employed and in
addition to extending the drift the
vein is also being crosscut to the
south. This has been extended about
20 feet, and this as well as the drift
is in vein formation favorable to ore.
The vein is about 90 feet wide and the
drift is being run about midway be
tween the walls and it is the purpose
to run crosscuts at intervals on both
sides in order to thoroughly prospect
the vein. The three HypOtheek veins,
one of which has been productive TO
a depth of 1000 feet and the other two
are known to carry ore, unite west of
the shaft and form the big vein now
being explored, conditions which are
regarded as highly favorable to
large body of ore.
Much Preparatory Work.
The mere statement of underground
operations at the Hypotheek conveys
no definite idea of the permanent i'm
provements made and facilities pro-
vided in order to carry out the plan
of development speedily and econOm-
ically, and the large expenditure in
volved. The installation of a COM
pressor required the construction of a
wagon road, eXcavating into the hill
side to obtain solid ground for the
compressor building. cribbing to hold
back the embankment concrete fOun-
datiOn for the compressor and motor
and the construction of the compress
or building itself Then there was the
extension of the electric transmission
line of the Washington Water Power
company from the old plant 20 the
new; the building of a blacksmith and
machine shop equipped with drill
sharpener and all other necessary ia
cilities; construction of a dry house
and powder magazine; the placing of
two air receivers and three pipe lines,
one for air, one for water for the
drills and one for ventilation 525 feet
in length. A dam was built 1000 feet
above the tunnel and r1ume construct
ed to a tank from which a pipe line
conveys the water to the compressor
for cooling purposes. These and num-
erous other lesser improvements and
facilities have been provided with the
view to economy and safety, all of
which were carried out under the per-
sonal direction of Sam Linn, mine
foreman. In reviewing these achieve
ments and the promising showing IN
derground Otto A. OLSON, manager of
the Hypotheek, naturally expressed
much pride and satisfaction. and also

pany is in financial condition to carry
out its important development pro-

STATE MINE INSPECTOR
VISITS THE NORTH SIDE
MAKES FIRST TRIP TO GREAT
MINERAL SECTION OF
DISTRICT.

Stewart Campbell state mine in
spector, left Tuesday morning Tor
Murray. stating upon his departure
that he expected to remain several
days on the North Side and visit as
many properties as possible within
the time at his disposal Mr.. Camp
bell was unanimously renominated for
the position he now holds by the re-
publican state convention in this city
last week He is now serving his first
term as mine inspector, and the work
he has already accomplished may be
regarded as foundation for even
more important achievements for the
mining industry of the state during
his second term. 1t is his purpose TO
make the Office an active factor in the
development of the mineral resources
of Idaho, and to do so he aims to keep
in close personal touch with the in
dustry from the prospect to the pro-
ducing mine. He has visited pyacuc-
ally every section of the state having
known or prospective mineral depos-
its. and it is his desire to assist III
their development by every proper
means. and especially through the /
publication of authentic Information /
regarding their character and the OPP /
portunities they offer for legitimate I
investment
On the North Side.
This is Mr.. CampbelIs first visit to .
the North Side and he expects to see
as much of that section as possible
within his time limit Among the /
properties on his list and others will |
probably be added, he mentioned the
Cedar Creek. Paragon Monarch, Ida
no Northern, Jack Waite. Columbus.
Giant Ledge. Yukon Gold dredging
operations and probably the Eagle
Creek placer These properties are
widely scattered ana he may have to
revise his plans, leaving out some
mentioned and taking on others. In
any event he will gain much first hand
regarding that great min
ing section which will result in direct
benefit to the mining interests of the
North Side.
