Smelling and Power company owns
many claims in the district, but
nearly all of its development work
has been done on the Adit claim.
Up to 1925 no ore had been piled,
shipped or smelted.
Lead Smelter Built
In 1905 G. R. Allison became IN
terested in the possibilities of
Cooke and raised sufficient capt.
tai to build the lead shelter that
stands about half mile east of the
town. He searched unsuccessfully
for ore in the vicinity of the smell
ter and after it was completed
bought some copper ore from Hen
derson mountain claims. AS The
smelter was built for lead, his eff
fort to run it on copper ore was
unsuccessful. The smelter dis
continued operations and the prop
erty has stood untouched since
1912.
c.. R. TuttTe visited the district
about 1906 and is reported to have
raised a large sum for the exploit
alton of several prospects but was
unsuccessful in developing any
paying property.
In 1928 the Mohawk Mining
company sank shaft at the foot
of Woody mountain, in a galena-
sphalerite vein which had a good
content of silver. Some of the ore
shows wire silver, and many spec
linens assay over 800 ounces to the
ton. Little work has been done
there since, however.
Active development work has
been going on since 1920 in the r..
ma mine, southeast of the Republic
mine and about mile solth of
Cooke. Adits driven in from Re-
public creek have disclosed ore of
good grade and in 1925 the com
pany had sunk 225-foot shaft
close to the intersection of Two
fractures, where it hoped to find a
good body of galena. This COM
pany shipped several carloads of
lead-silver ore In 1922, 1928, 1924
and 1925.
The Tredennick Development
company has a group of claims on
Scotch Bonnet mountain, where
pyritic copper ore of good grade
is exposed in a shallow adit. In
1925 an adit was being driven at a
lower level to EXPLORE for this ore
body at greater depth.
The Glengarry Mining company
is engaged in developing some cop
per-gold property on Scotch Bon
net mountain. An adit about 1890
feet long driven into the base cf
the mountain failed to discover
copper ore in depth, and the ore ex-
posed in the upper workings is now
blocked out. A small pyritic cop
per tonnage is proved.
Output of District
1t is impossible to say how much
lead-silver ore was produced in the
early history of the district, but

Very little is known of the New
World mining district in Parl
county, of the geology of tn,
country, and the early history 0.
the section. It is only few year.
since this information became
automatically reliable, and this was
due to extensive work carried or
by T. S. Lowering who furnished
this valuable information to econ
omie geology.
Mr.. Lowering was at Cooke
from June to Sept. 10, 1922, and
spent most of this time in making
a topographic map of this section.
The interval from June 10 to Sept.
5, 1923 was devoted to a study of
geology of the district. About six
weeks in July and August, 1925.
were spent in completing the re-
connaissance maps of the Goose
lake area and studying the recent
mining developments of that time.
Mr.. Lowering was assisted by W.
c. Werner and by C. W. Gray in
1922, 1928 and 1925.
J. T. Pardee, of the United
States geological survey, eompil-
ed considerable data of the district
in 1918. The following story has
been compiled from information
and material furnished by Mr..
Lowering and his associates and
special mention should be made by
Messrs. L. H. Brooks, N. J. Ire
dennick, F. C. Byrne, Harry Stin-
son, Gus Solomonson and Jack
Allen, who furnished valuable in
formation which is incorporated in
this story.
In the pioneer days of Montana
the New World mining district was /
regarded as one of its most prom
Using camps. In the early SOS
Cooke had a population of 1000. |
Specimens of rich ore reputed to
come from the vicinity of Cooke |
may be seen in many cities and +
camps remote from the district,
but little information has hither-
to been available as to geology and
mining.
Location of the District
The New World mining district
is in Park county, in the mountain
Gus country northeast of the Vel
lowstone national park. It is
reached by way of Gardiner, from
which it lies about 40 miles due
east, or 81 miles by road. The dis
trict has an extent of about 10
miles from north to south and five
miles east to west. The only set
tlment is the small mining town of
Cooke, which lies in the valley of
Soda Butte creek, in the southern
part Of the district, at an altitude
of about 1000 feet. At present
Freighting to Gardiner costs about
/ cent pound, a rate that pro-
hlbits the shipping of any but high
grade ore.
the population ranges from about
10 in the Winter to over 200 in the
summer. Summer tourists and min
ers who have claims upon which
assessment work must be done
make up most of the summer pop
ulation.
All supplies are freighted from
Gardiner. Red Lodge is closer to
Cooke by air line, but some of the
highest and most rugged noun
tains in Montana seperate them,
and there is no direct road between
the two places. The only practic-
able means of communication be-
tween Cooke and a railroad is by

Sporadic attempts have been
made from time to time to run
smelters near Cooke, but as the
nearest coal fields are at Red
Lodge, a long haul is necessary to
bring to coal from the mines to
Cooke. If transportation should
become available between these
two places, it might be possible to
smelt ores economically in the dis
triet, but in 1922 coke cost $40 a
ton at Cooke, and this price was
prohibitive. In the early history
of the camp, charcoal was used
but cutting and burning of timber
for this purpose has been forbid
den by state law for a number of
years.
Known Since 1868
Rumors of the existence of rich
lead, silver and gold deposits at
Cooke City were reported as early
as 1868, but no claims were located
until 1870. In 1869 four trappers,
Adam Miller, J. H. Moore, Bart
Henderson, and James Gourley,
were robbed of their horses by In
dians who had discovered and loot
ed their cache on Cache creek. The |
four men narrowly escaped death |
and fled north up Cache creek and |
crossed the divide that separates
its headwaters from Republic
creek. They discovered the man.

promising one. The following sum-
ner mining and placer claims were
'taked on Miller and Republic
Mountains. Although this district
vas then part of the Grow Indian
reservation, furnace of the
Mexican type was built in 1875,
md lead ore from Miller mountain
vas smelted. The amount of base
bullion produced is difficult to es-
innate, as the records were de-
itroyed by q raiding party of the
(ez Perez Indians in 1878, and the
cad of the furnace was stolen, pre-
to be converted into shot.
IN 1880 George Houston bonded
he Republic property to Jay
Cooke, then a Northern Pacific
contractor, and named the town
Cooke City in his honor; this name
vas later shortened to Cooke by
POSTAL authorities. After an H.
tial payment of $4,000, Cooke was

MAY I CUT mp"
OUR CHILDREN
BY ANGELO PATRI.

The close, affectionate, spiritual touch
so essential to healthy child growth
cannot well be given when children are
massed in and attended by strangers
for pay. Kindly and well meaning,
even loving, they may be, but that
little bit more that means the very
essence of life to children is not there.
And for that reason We beg that all
teachers who have no real affection for
children, who cannot love the trouble
some child while correcting it, who
cannot yearn over the growth of a
stumbling pupil, find some more con-
genial occupation.
Children must be loved II they are
to succeed. That Is only another way
of saying they must be happy.
Put line and color into their cloth
ing so they feel your understanding
care. Put in that 'little bit more" into
the dressing of the children so that
your care takes on the emotional and
personal tint that sets the youngsters
hearts beating in higher rhythm. Put
touch of beauty in the table service,
it is so inexpensive and easy these days
Of the five-and-ten, so that each meal
becomes feast of love, although 1t be
only bread and jam. Bread and jam
served on a dainty green plate, milk in
q tumbler that glows with the light OF
Spring grass and greenery, is party.
A lesson accompanied by new and
shiny pencil and immaculate paper
becomes a privilege and Joy.
Just little bit more"-and earth
becomes heaven for childhood. Isn't
that worth a little thought?

Now, Farmer Browns Boy knew where
Jim Crows favorite treasure house was
and he went straight to It, He hunted
all through 1t. There were many things
in that storehouse and most Of the
things were shiny. There was the han
die of broken cup; there were two or

He started for the door, but Jim Crow
didn't follow. Jim Crow few over to

wasn't being watched, Jim Grow few to
a certain knothole and peered into It,.

something out, with which he appeared
to play for a few minutes. He then
l dropped 1t back In the knothole and

Farmer Browns Boy let him into the
shed and then shut him In there. Then
he went straight over TO that knothole
where Jim Crow had been so busy. He
peeked In. Something bright was In

could feel something. The hole was not
big enough for him to put his hand In.
Finally with little stick he managed
| to-get out the thing he had felt. 1t was

Farmer Browns Boy went back to the
house and let Jim Crow out. At first,
jim Grow just hung around. Finally,
| when he thought no one was watching
him, he flew over to the tree with the
knothole. A moment later Farmer
Browns Boy chuckled as he heard the
| voice of Jim Crow. Cav, Cav, Caw!"
shrieked Jim Crow. And one did not
need to understand what he was saying
to know that he was both disappointed
and angry.
