Items (.loaned From tbe Vote B»porti- All Districts Ar* llelns Dovelopod-A prosperous tear Is PreiUcted-Mlnliis Motes -ml Personals. The Standard Mining Company of Wallace, Idaho, paid Its monthly dividend last week, amounting this time io $30,000. This makes a total paid ln dividends by this company to date of $1,745,000. The company is operated as a close corporation, and this Is the first time a statement of the amount of Its dividends has ever been given to the public, but lt comes from a source which leaves no doubt of lis correctness. This shows that In the amount of Its dividends the Standard Is the second mine In Idaho being surpassed only by the De Lainar, which paid $2,290,- 000 up to May, 1898. llepillllli-. The Mabel shaft Is about 40 feet in depth. The Lucky Consolidated has been attracting some attention of late. It lies west of the Palo Alto. The Tom Thumb Giant has been taken In charge by Ambrose Stewart, manager of the Morning Glory, and n force of men has started to sink a shaft. The U. S. Development Company, successor of the U. 8. Le Roi Gold Mining Company, has decided to mine in earnest. As evidence of this fact the company has asked for bids to sink a 100-foot shaft on the property. The Gopher Is turning out some nice looking ore. It would take an expert to tell It from the Mountain Lion ore. The Durango Gold Mining Company in pushing work on the Alloth claim. The shaft is 40 feet in depth, and the ledge maintains its width. The report is being circulated that a now manager has taken charge of the Tom Thumb. The Good Luck Consolidated ls go Ing down with the shaft. After sink Ing 50 feet the ledge was crosscut, but as it was considerably broken up the management decided to sink another 50 feet and to again crosscut the vein. The Gold Ledge is still the magnet that draws the curiosity seekers and mining men to Gold Hill. As the dritt on the Mountain Lion advances, there is a steady Increase in values. Since the drift was started south to make a connection with the shaft the values have risen more than 100 per cent. At the point where the drift began nt the tunnel the ore ran from $40 to $ti0 per ton. On account of the bad air, the con- trnctorn ©— tWc- G—I- l^'.v. w..»-.. compelled to throw up the contract on the main tunnel. The whim on the North Snn Poil is In place and will be put in operation Immediately. The shaft is 70 feet ln depth. There apears to be little change in the character of the ore for the past 50 feet. The Ben Hur shaft has been started but for lack of material the shaft has not been timbered and not much progress has been made on it. The El Caliph grows larger every day and the ore maintains its high character. The Insurgent claim is now developed by shaft The character of the ore remains as heretofore. The drift on the Bryan k Sewell was advanced 40 feet In March. Ouly one shift Is employed. Superintendent Hinckley states that ihe shaft on the. Mary j\\nn was sunk 42 feet last month. The Golden Chest, which lies on the east slope of Copper Mountain, ran 100 feet of drift and sank eight feeet of shaft between the first nnd last days of March. The Golden Chariot shaft was sunk 46 feet, last month. It lies a short distance southeast of the Mary Ann In what is known as the southwest belt. The Admiral Dewey ran 25 feet of shaft and 30 feet of drift during the past month. The progress on the Payne tunnel for March was 30 feet. The Payne lies south of and ndjoins the Iron Monitor. The Republic, as usual takes the lead In dovelopment work ln March. It has to its credit 427 feet of drift. Rather less than the usual amount of development work was done on the Jim Blaine tunnel, the total number of feet run being 60. The Butte k Boston drift was extended 89 feet during the past month. The south drift of the Princess Maud was extended 70 feet last month. The Number Six tunnel was extended 100 feet last month. The Kate Hayward tunnel was driven 93 feet in March. The Kate Hayward adjoins the Delta on the east. Hrl.lsh Colombia. The lead stack at the Hall Mines smelter will be started up as soon ss the new water jackets arrive. These hove lieen oidered for some time and are dally expected. The smelter bas 7 grass roots this property has paid nnd when supplies are packed up and tbe men get to work, ore will be secured rapidly from the presont body. During February 2,445 tons of ore run through the Whitewater concentrator, producing 276 tons of concentrates. The shipments were 285 tons, and the returns from 242 tons amounted to $12,590. The approximate profit on the month's working was $1,250. For the 18 days ending March 3 the following were the results of opera- lions at the Hull Mines smelter: 2,458 tons of Silver King ore and six tons of purchased ore were smelted; containing approxlmiuetly, Silver King ore 54 tons copper, 36,890 ounces silver; purchased ore, etc., one ton copper, 130 ounces silver, seven ounces gold. The Noble Five Is waiting for water to start the concentrator. The bins and pockets are full and a two weeks' run will l>e required to handle the ore. The Ruth company is making arrangements to commence the construction of its tram and concentrator at an early day. T. Mitchell, who built the Comstock and many other concentrators ln the Slocan, has the contract for the Ruth concetrator. Buffalo Hump Hotels Around the mountain traveling is very difficult. Every one has to get out and break trail for the horses and the animals frequently sink up to their necks In the snow. From Elk City to Badger the snow Is deep but the trail has been kept well broken by travelers. Tbere Is considerable activity at Badger, where the Big Buffalo company is getting out its mill and moving It to the Hump. The Big Buffalo shaft is down 35 feet, but for the last few feet values have depreciated. Mr. Sweeny says that the latest showings are disappointing, but the work will proceed, although the size of the shaft will be reduced aud tho force of miners will be uot more than 12 meu. The uews ot finding lower grade ore beneath the sensationally rich ore of the surface has caused considerable comment here but hns not served to oampeu the ardor of owners of other claims. It is said that the ore in the bottom of the shaft is more heavily mineralized than above, and carries enough gold to make the property a dividend payer if the values now shown In the bottom of the shaft hold out. Definite Information as to values could not be obtained. MiniNG MOT-K. Discoveries of copper ore near Salisbury, N. C, at the Union gold mines, are exciting intense interest and claims are made that the supply will equal the famous Calumet and Hecla and Anaconda mines. It Is known that negotiations are pending for the reopening of what is commonly called the Whitlatch Union mine, the property of the National Mining antl Exploring compiiuy, irbtcli Is located at the head of Oro Fino gulch, about four miles south of Helena. Twenty-five cans of black powder, used in blasting at tbe construction works at Point Richmond, Cat, on the Valley road, exploded last week. James Ilogan won killed and Thomas Keefo burned so badly he will die. Dnn Quin, the superintendent, was burned aliout the face ami arms, but will recover. The ore shipments from Rossland for ihe week ending April 8th are as follows: • Le Roi to Northport, 2,376; War Eagle, to Trail, 468; Iron Mask, to Trail, 108; total, 2,952 tons. Total shipments for the year lo April 8th were 22,036 tons. The ore shipments for the past week hold up fairly well, considering that the War Eagle has not been able to commence shipping in earnest. There are over 1000 tons of broken ore In the workings yet, and lt will be another week before the War Eagle Is in a position to run along with the Le Roi.

The usual knot of people that had gathered on the sidewalk to look on, as people always do when a horse falls down, saw in this case something that was new to at least some of them. The horse, the off one of a pair hitched to a truck, had gone down on a snow-covered and slippery asphalt pavement. The driver cleared away all tho harness, loosed all the fastenings bo that the horse would have perfect freedom of movement, and then did the one thing thnt was new. He got from the truck a big piece of burlap bagging and went back to tbe horse's head and prepared to place it under the horse's forefeet He spread It under the horse's off forefoot first, because that was the one he came to first coming from the truck, arranging it on the ground close to the foot and then lifting the foot and leg and pushing thc burlap under lt. Then he went around the horse's head to repeat the operation with the nigh foot, and when he got all ready and had got hold of the horse's foot to lift it, the horse lifted his foot himself, while the driver simply carried It forward to its proper place on the burlap. Then, with this good, secure bold for his feet the horse got up on the slippery pavement with no difficulty whatever, and the driver hooked blm up again and drove on.
