RICH STRIKE ON
 B. C. SILVER

Confirming current rumors of a new ore discovery on the B. c. Silver, during the past week, it is now definitely known that a strike of inn mense importance was made on the property several days ago.
 Owing to the policy of the company forbidding announce ments regarding the mine de- velopments from any other source than the head offices, details of the discovery have not been made public. How ever, it is a matter of general knowledge among the mine employees that a new ore body has been found and that it is the richest that has so far been discovered on the B. c. Silver properties and carries values closely approaching those of the famous bonanza ores of the Premier.
 From reliable sources it is learned that the ore was en- countered in a cross cut run from a shaft and at a depth of 75 feet below the lowest, or No. 3 level. The latter fact is of considerable significance in the degree that it demon strates conclusively that the ore bodies persist to depths of 1000 feet or more.
 With the recent installation of a new compressor of 1,00C cubic feet capacity, an electric mine locomotive and other facilities, work on the proper ty is being carried on at q greatly increased pace.

Clearing the right of way for the projected ore tram way of the Dunwell mine started Tuesday, according to reports from Stewart.
 The specifications require the slashing and clearing of approximately 5000 feet of right of way 200 feet in width The clearing will be done by day labor, owing to bids called for by the Dunwell Company last month being found too high for consideration, with the result that all tenders were rejected when opened last week.
 The work of clearing the right of way is expected to consume about three weeks, after which the work of in stalling the tram proper is ex- pected to start at once.

A powerful suction pump has been installed on the bridge near the Midget Emporium for fire protection purposes by Mrs. J. L. Campbell, proprie- tress of the Campbell Board ing House. The pump can be operated by either two or four men and will throw a stream from a two inch hose to a height of 80 feet or more. Mrs. Campbell origially intended to install the pump on her own premises but later decided to place the machine where it would be of benefit in case of fire anywhere along the block; thus performing a public ser vice which may prove to be of inestimable benefit. The pump is supplied with 150 feet of two-inch hose, which will be increased by Mrs. Campbell to 200 feet. This will permit water to be pumped to any point between the Ideal Bath House and the Provinse store. Hubert Thomas has undertak- en to place the pump in shape where it will be available for fire purposes at all times.

E. A. Bartholf will leave shortly for the Broad Pass section to look over a placer proposition in that locality in the interest of Seattle parties. MT. Bartholf is familiar with the Broad Pass country, hay ing prospected in the district some years before the con struction of the government railroad. During his stay in the district he located a number of properties but was unable to exploit them owing to their remote situation and the ab- sence of transportation. With the railroad traversing the dis trict conditions are now much improved and it is fast prov ing to be an important mining country.
 The properties to be investi- gated by MT. Bartholf are To- cated about 300 miles from Anchorage. Development work will be continued on MT. Bar tho1f's properties on Salmon glacier during his absence, with three men employed.

NEW DISCOVERY
 ON BIG MISSOURI

Reports from the Big Missouri this week announce the dis covery of a fine ore body in the lower tunnel, driven a hum dred feet or so below the old Mann tunnel.
 Work on this tunnel has been in progress for some time and it was confidently expected to tap the extensions of the rich ore shoots found last year in the cross cut run by Pat Daily from the Mann tunnel.
 Owing to the discovery being of very recent date, the new ore body had not been suffici- ently explored to definitely determine it's extent at the time the report was received.

OLD TIMER DIES
 ON TEXAS TRAIL

and prospector of this district,
 was found dead Monday or the 1bex group trail in the
 Texas Creek section by Harry Hill and Dominick Bevacqua. According to telephone reports received in town from 9-Mile
 Monday evening the body ot the old timer was found lying on the trail, in a posture indi- eating that he had passed away suddenly, apparently O. apoplexy or heart failure
 while on his way to the Con- nors and McVey cabin, a short distance north of the Texas pack trail.
 Dugas, who was aged about 68 years, has resided alone for years in a cabin situated on the river bar near 9-Mile. He is known to have left his home about 9 o'clock Monday morn ing enroute to the upper end of Texas Creek, where he owned several mining claims on which he had intended to work. Apparently no one saw the aged prospector following his departure until his lifeless remains were discoverd by Be- vacqua and Hill, who left g. Mile about Il a. m. Monday enroute to the Ibex group tc assist in performing the an nual assessment work. Both had seen the Dugas at 9-Mile prior to his departure from that point.
 When encountered by Bevac- qua and Hill about 6:30 p. m. the body was still warm, indi- eating that death had occurred only short time before. The position of the remains and the fact that tent and other paraphenalia carried by Du gas was found some distance down the hill is believed to in- dicate that Dugas had left the main trail in an attempt to To cate the Connors and McVey cabin, where he probably in- tended to pass the night. When discovered, the body was lying face down and parti- ally leaning against a stump in a position which indicated that death had occurred very suddenly and without a strug- gle. On determining that Du- gas was dead, Bevacqua, leav- ing his companion to guard the body, returned to 9-Mile, where news of the fatality was telephoned to town.
 The remains of the unfortu- nate miner were brought to town Tuesday afternoon by Dave Manhood, who left for the scene early Tuesday morn ing.
 The deceased was a native Of Quebec but had lived in Alas ka for many years, following the occupation of miner and prospector throughout the period of his residence. He is is believed to have a number of surviving brothers and q sister, most of whom reside in Quebec province.
 The remains are at the un- dertaker's awaiting their dis position.

ANNUAL MEETING
 HYDERL LEAD co.


 Mines, Inc. was held Monday and resulted in the selection of the following as directors for the ensuing year: Yelling ton Beaton, A. w. Yount, G. R. Mason, A. B. Sanders and J. A. Hall.
 Aside from the selection of officials, the meeting develop ed nothing of public interest, aside from the report of Su- perintendent R. c. Mellon, which not only outlined the development contemplations for the present season but al- so disclosed in graphic man. ner, some of the unusual diff faculties encountered during the past month in the effort to land supplies on the ground, owing to the late snow in Tex as Creek valley.
 "On May 8th last" the report in part says, three men were engaged and a trial trip was made with six horses. This reached a point five miles up the trail, where a temporary camp was made and the horses returned for another load. On the next trip all the supplies were moved a mile farther, which was as far as the horses could proceed.
 From that point everything was back-packed four miles over the snow to the Con- pany's cabin in the Texas Creek basin"
 The report states that work now being done consists of building a horse trail on a 25 per cent grade from the basin to a point selected for the mine camp at an elevation of 3700 feet. It is not proposed to erect any substantial build ings at the mine camp until definite results have been ob- tained from development work on the vein. Development ac- tivities will be devoted princ.p- ally to driving tunnef on the vein from the same level as the tunnel started in 1924, the objective being the develop ment of a shoot of high grade ore exposed on the surface in the ridge above.
 It is estimated that a tunnel 120 feet long will attain a depth of 100 feet below this high grade outcrop. In the event that the ore is encOunt- cred at this depth it is esti- mated that the tunnel should ore of a gross value of 97,000. Exploratory work is also contemplated on the large low grade outcrops at the upper end of the group. Continuing, the reports says:
 "The development of the large low grade tonnage be- low the Joe-Joe outcrop is i'm portant. It is inevitable that the property must ultimately be operated on a low grade basis and, therefore, some work toward proving low grade tonnage should be un- dertaken as soon as possible. The first work of prospecting the h.'h grade outcrops is to prove values in the vein, as we are dependent upon some proof of that description to obtain from the authorities the much needed improve
