The mystery began when Sheriff
Hawkins was called to slxty-second
St. and Allisonvillle Rd at 2:S0 a. m.
Mr. and Mrs. Ralph L. Chapman
proprietors Of the Rose Garden Tea
Garden there, said they had heard a
woman screaming about two blocks
away.
Purse in Car
Sheriff Hawkins found the
abandoned auto--a Hupmobile coupe.
The certificate of title showed the
car belonged to Mrs. Dean. A purse
containing $36 in cash and a 800
check was found on the running
board.
Later Arch w. Mackenzie, living
on Euclid Blvd, near where the car
was found, said he heard woman
scream and a Ford auto drive away.
He said when he heard the freight
train stop this morning, he went
over to the railroad tracks and saw
the body of the woman lying In the
tracks.
Harry Lowe of Peru, fireman on
the freight train, was the first to see
the body. The train was stopped
before striking Mrs. Dean, who was
conscious, but tainted after whisper
ing Irene"
others in the train crew were:
f. A. Redmond, indianapolis,
engineer; c. A. Schultz. Peru, con-
ductor.
Coroner Paul F. Robinson went
TO Nololesville and ordered that the
skull Of ths woman be opened, to
determine If she had been struck
on the head. Robinson said there
was no question but what she was
struck by a train.
Attack Believed
Sheriff Hawkins said all indica.
tons were that the woman had been
dragged from her auto to the tracks
and said that there were footprints
to show this. He said he believed
that the party who attacked her
was seeking personal revenge, as
the woman was not robbed.
She had two beautiful diamond
rings on her hand when taken to
the hospital. The fact that $135
was found in her auto also discounts
any robbery motive, the sheriff said.
Two trains are scheduled to pass
this point. One, south bound, leaves
Noblesville at 2:55 a. m. and the
other. north bound. leaves Indianapo-
lis at ASS.
Either train could have struck the
woman, it is believed.
One of her shoes was found be-
tween the rails and another was
found besides the tracks. 1ndica-
tions were that the woman had been
dragged several feet south.
Shoe prints and auto tire marks
were found at the Sixty-Ffrst st.
crossing, near the place. The foot
prints made by a woman's shoes in
dicates she was pushed forward
against her will.
Mrs. Dean died about a. m. ten
minutes after she was brought to
the Hamilton County Hospital. An
autopsy was hled by Coroner
Charles Coaltrin of Hamilton
County and DIR. Leslie Lingerman.
Death was declared due to a rup-
tured spleen.
Leg Broken
DIR. Lingerman also said her left
leg was broken.
Mrs. Margaret Harrell, superin-
tendent of the Hamilton County Hos
pital, said the woman had two front
teeth broken had deep cash on the
left hip. deep cash over the eye, a
scalp wound and bruises over her
whole body. Mrs. Harrell said her
clothing was badly torn as u she
had been dragged.
Mrs. Dean died without regaining
consciousness. Mrs. Harrell said.
Sheriff Hawkins viewed the body
and said it was Mrs. Dean, whom

PROGRESS ON FORTY NINE

With a crew of Is men em- ployed, the work of getting the Forty Nine in shape for active development work is going forward at a rapid rate, according to recent visitors to that noted property. Present activities are directed princi- pally to getting the camp in shape to accommodate a crew of 25 or 30 men, who will be employed later and to install- ng the compressor recently removed from the Big Mis- .ouri. A diamond drill is also cection of L. lessen, manage, being set up by the Boyles Bros. company under the di- of that concern.

SPIDER PREPARING
 TO SHIP HIGH GRADE

Several tons of fine looking ore have been brought down from the Spider properties by Wm. McGrew during the past week, as a result of operations now being carried on by the B. c. Bonanza Mining Com pany,which took over tn Spider and other properties in the same locality under bond during the spring.
 The ore is said to be part of a contemplated smelter ship ment, to be made when a suf- ficient quantity has been ac- cumulated, and is obtained by sorting ore extracted during development operations con- ducted in earlier years. The company is also making prep arations to carry on under ground work, shipping the high grade as the work pro gresses. Dan Woodmore is in charge of operations.

NEW TUNNEL
 CUTS MAIN LEAD
 PORTER IDAHO

Further disproving the un- warranted dictum of the noted geological sharps who some years ago decided after super ficial examinations that the ore deposits of the district did not Ego down." the complet- ion of the new 3OO-foot tunnel on the Porter Idaho last week also disclosed the downward extension of the main lead which yielded such splendid returns from operations con- ducted last year in the first level, about 200 feet higher lp the slope. Not only does the discovery again prove that the geologists were wrong but also discloses that the vein is both richer and wider than in the upper workings. Authentic reports from the mine state that the lead shows a fine vein of high grade ore IA inches thick and carrying much bet ter values than those hereto fore encountered, in addition so several feet of exceptional ly good milling ore. The ore body was crosscut at the
 identical point in the tun- nel where it was supposed % be, demonstrating that the vein maintains practically the same trend below the upper workings.
 The cross cutting of the main lead at depth is not only q development of tremendous importance to the district but also removes the last vestige of doubt regarding the future of the Porter Idaho property, which, is unquestionably due to become a remarkably pro- life producer as soon as op- erations are extended to the new level.

NEW DEAL FOR
 TEXAS COMSTOCK

As a result of a deal con- sumated last week, prospects are bright for the commence ment of. development operat- ions on the Texas Creek Com stock properties, considered lo- cally among the most promis- ing in the Texas Creek area.
 According to announcements, the property, which comprises a group of twenty claims sit uated near the foot of Chick amin Glacier on the south side of Texas Creek, has been taken over by Messrs. Beaton and Hemsworth, of Vancouv- CT, who are at present pro- noting the development of a number of valuable gold ore properties on Georgia River.
 Under the terms of the deai, Beaton and Hemsworth are to undertake the promotion and management of the. Texas Creek Comstock holdings, the Texas Comstock Mining Com pany, the owning concern, re- tiring from all participation in the management of operations. The new management is plan ing active development work in the near future.

Capt. Griffiths, noted coast shipping man and operator of the steamers Griffco, Mogul, Anyox and Amur, all of which are familiar to local residents, spent several days in the dis trict during the early part of the week.
 Capt. Griffiths arrived on his private yacht accompanied by a party of nine composed of friend and members of his family. The greater part of their stay was spent at the Premier mine, where they were the guests of MT. and Mrs. Dale L. Pitt.

great mine.
 The next bonders of the property were MT. A. B. Trites of Vancouver and his associ- ates,R. W! Wood and w. R. Wilson.
 Under MT. Trites' control, during the season of 1922 the work consisted of a systematic exploration of the outcrops by deep open cuts and trenches, which not only exposed con- siderable high-grade ore, but gave important information and insight into the strike, dip and trend of the ore shoots.
 With this information gain od, a vertical shaft was sunk to a depth of forty feet. The ore came in again lower and continued to the bottom of 5he shaft. The work was suf- ficiently encouraging for Mir. Trites to make the second pay ment on his bond. It is under stood that negotiations for an extension of the time of the subsequent payments ended n Mir. Trites dropping the proposition after he had made he third payment. As we'll as having made substantial pay ments, he had spent a large sum in exploration, by which he Americans will benefit.

Operations on the Daly Alas ka have been temporarily sus- pended in response to in struction received from the outside.
 A local representative of the company states that the sus- pension is in conformity to a decision to continue explorat- ion of the property by dia- mond drilling, for which a program of operations is be- ing prepared. Work will be re- sumed as soon as drilling con tracts and other necessary ar engagements are completed, probably in two or three weeks according to the advices re. ceived respecting the com pany's contemplations.

CORPORATION TO TAKE
 OVER RIVERSIDE

The Riverside mine, leading |. mining property on the Ameri- can side of the international boundary line will be capital ized and placed in immediate operation, according to an an nouncement by manager J. D. Littlepage following his re- turn from Ketchikan last week.
 As a result of arrangements effected with the Barber Strong-Black interests the mine has been turned over to Messrs. Littlepage and St.Clair under bonding and leasing ar arrangements which give them complete control of the well known property. To finance operations it is their intention to organize a small stock com- pany with a capitalization of $250,000, divided into 250,O00 shares of a par value of $l per share. Fifty thousand shares will be placed on the market at par, a portion ot which will be offered to the local public A crew of IA ol 15 men, a majority of whom were employed on the prop erty before the recent sus- pension, have been engaged and will start operations as soon as the mine and mill can be placed in shape. A small crew of four or five men is already at work getting things in readiness. In every instance the men employed have demonstrated their faith in the mine's future by offer ing to take a portion of theil pay in stock. MT. Littlepage stated that there is enough ore in the stopes to keep the mill running for consider able time and plans are also being considered for handling customs ore on either a per- centage or purchase basis. Ac- cording to MT. Littlepage, the arrangements made with the owing interests are of the liberal character and will en- able them to pay for the mine out of its own earnings.
 Messrs. Littlepage and St. Clair left Monday for the out side to raise the necessary capital to again place the mine on a producing; basis.

While returning Monday ev- ening from a trip into the Sal mon glacier section in com- pany with Earl Hinckley, II. H. Howard, managing director of the Midget Emporium, Inc, was overcome by the intense heat prevailing in the upper valley and later became so it that Mr. Hinckley found it necessary to summon Dr. Standard to the Fish Creek road house to relieve his suf- fering. Following a sudden collapse while walking along the Texas Creek trail, about a mile beyond the Salmon River bridge while his companion had gone on ahead to catch the Nagel taxi, MT. Howard managed to make his way to the bridge, where he was placed in the machine. By this time he was suffering excruci- ating pains in the upper port ion of his body and was in such a state when the Fish Creek road house was reached that it was decided to stop until medical assistance could be se-. cured. MT. Hinckley could not succeed in reaching the doctor by phone and was compelled to drive into town to summon the physician, who diagnosed the trouble as due to the heat and unusual exertion. After resting at the road house until Tuesday evening MT. Howard was able to return to town.

BIG MISSOURI SOLD

AAAC DAS VhAo0Ou11 SIOup, Oue of the most widely known properties in the district, has been bonded to the Standard Mines Corporation, an Amer ican concern, and will short ly become the scene of active development operations, ac. cording to a recent announce ment by the Vancouver Prov ince, which says:
 Purchase of the Big Missouri mine, on Salmon River in the Portland Canal area, is an nounced by MT. H.A Hent- on of Tacoma, Wash, head of the Standard Mines Cor poration. This concern also recently purchased two large dredging leases on McDame Creek, Cassiar, and machinery for the development of that property is now on the way north.
 Development work at the Big Missouri will begin al once, under direction of Pat Daly, who is credited with be- ing responsible for the famous Premier mine by inducing R. K. Neill of Spokane to ex- anime his theories regarding it.
 MT. Daly induced Mir. Henton to go into the Big Missouri deal. He had made MT. Hent- on the proposition he after ward successfully made to Mr. Neill on the Premier. MT. liar ry Townsend, formerly with the Anaconda Copper Com pany- as field engineer. is now with the Standard Mines Corporation as consulting en. gineer, and following the pre- liminary exploration work oll the Big Missouri, lie will out line a development program.
 The deal for the Big Missouri was closed Tuesday by Mir. Henton and Mir. Dan Linde- borg, and representative of the Stevenson and Proudfoot estates. A substantial cash payment was made. The total price of the bond was not made public.
 The Big Missouri group con- sists of sixteen full claims and four fractions all crown granted, and lies along the ridge east of Salmon River glacier for a length of two miles. It is a property that has been the subject of more geological discussion and less actual work for the extent of it's surface showings than any property in the country.
 According to MT. George Clotier, resident mining en- gineer for the department of mines:
 "On the Big Missouri every thing has been proven geo, logically, and it remains to prove practically the under ground intricacies of the ore bodies having such prominent outcrops."
 The Big Missouri was under bond twice to Sir Donald Mann and associates. During the first Portland Canal boom, Sir Donald's engineers recon mended it, and he commenced development. He did not com plete his option. Again in 1918
