MULLAN, Idaho, Oct. 6.-[Special.1-The
number of Mullan men who have made a
"stake" out of the mines in the vicinity is
quite large. They are:
J. G. Hunter......................... $40,000
F. H. . oore.: .................... 40,00
James Rommell.................... .00
Waldo .. Clark .............. ........ 30,000
D. Ui. inebargor......... ............... 1i5,00.

. H. J. Rice ............................ .000
Fant Lindrean ................ ....... 00
John Lenhun ........ ............... 5,000
Grand Total ........................... 1290,000
Of this amount about $20,000 was received
for property south of the river, $80,000 from
Hunter Hill and a majority of the balance
from the Chloride hill group of mines. All
of the above named gentlemen, with one
single exception, were prospectors and
members of the "bacon and beans brigade,"
as late as the spring of 1887. and all of
them packed their blankets and "grub" in
to the Cceur d'Alenes on their baoks. The
principal properties from which the above
amount has been received are:
The Gold Hunter, Morning, Evening,
Gettysburg, Lucretia, Grouse, Iron Crown,.
Yon Like, Just What, Yolanda, Silver King,
Independence and Central mines.
All of these properties are in the vicinity
of Mullan, and form a silver girdle around
the town. The present values of these
properties can be-lpt down at $1,920,000.
These figures are It very conservative esti
mate. If this is not a fine showing for a
young camp, where shall we find it? The
writer challenges a comparison with any
four-year-old mining camp in the world on
silver-lead properties.
There are also as many more mining
properties here that will be added to the
list in the near future and the "thousand"
figure will be placed to the credit of the
owners. It is only a question with us of
whose turn will come next:
THOUSAND TONS DAILY.
Capacity of the Bunker HIll & Sullivan
Concentrator.
WAaDNan, Ida., Oct. 6.-[Speoial.]-The
contract for erecting the. building for the
new concentrator for the Bunker Hill &
Sullivan Mining & Concentrating company,
has been awarded to Thomas F. Cosgriff,
to completed on Jan. 1 next. It will stand
at the side of the present one, started up in
May last, on the west, and will be one of
corresponding capacity. When completed
nhe two will handle 1,000 tons of ore every
twenty-four hours, and will be the largest
plant for reduction of galena ore on this
continent. It will require 800 to 1,000 men
in various capacities to keep this immense
plant in operation, and 800 to 900 in and
about the mine. This mine will send a
greater quantity of lead into the channels
of commerce than any other mine in the
great Rooky Mountain region. It will em
ploy a greater number of men than any lead
property in the west, and is the biggest
mine of its class on earth. A gentleman
familiar with all the prominent asines of
this country, where immense ore bodies
are common, recently remarked that he
could put all the mines of the Cceur d'Alene
country into one of the Banker Hill &
Sullivan stopes. Their Bleichert tramway,
now erected, and being repaired, will han
dle all the ore required for this immense
plant and call for more. Its capacity will
not be taxed to the maximum in sending
one ton of ore per minute from the mine
to the twin concentrators, two miles dis
tant, not 'mentioning the loads of cord
wood, mining timbers, mine and boarding
house supplies.
A new machine for framing timbers,
making all outs, tennons, etc., at one
stroke, has been added at the saw mill, lo
cated on the flume at the concentrator,
where the timbers and wood is delivered by
the same water that supplies the power for
the concentrator, dynamos for illumination,
the mill, etc.
The hearing of the cases of the Last
Chance company against the Tyler com
pany and the Tyler against the former, to
be heard in the United States circuit court
at Boise City next Monday, the 5th instant,
have drawn a large number of men from
here to Boise.
8. A. Denaugh has completed the repairs
and changes in the Sitemwinder conoentra
tor. Now jigs have been added, and
changes increasing the capacity from sixty
to 100 tons daily. New cable has been
placed in position on the Halliday tram
way. It is delivering ore that is being
treated at the concentrator, and twenty to
thirty tons of concentrates will be shipped
daily.
The Tiger company at Burke is erecting
a hoist, good for 1,600 feet, at their new
working shaft, now down 400 feet. It will
be located about 100 feet south of the old
working tunnel and will be geared for both
water and steam power. The latter will
not be used when wanter is plentiful.
James Clark, brother of Patsy Clark,
manager of tihe Poorman mine at Burke,
has accepted the position of foreman at
the Sierra Nevada mine here, Thomas Cur
now, who has held that position several
years past, having resigned.
C. 8. Jennings has bonded the Plainview
location, adjoining the Cwur d'Alene Nel
lie, and other prominent locations, near
Osburn. Mr. Jennings is maneger of the
War Eagle group. in the same locality, also
adjoining the Pleinview. The conditions
of the bona are: Two men must be kept at
work constantiy, five per cent of the pur
chase price, $5,000. to be paid on Dec. 20.
The bond runs one year. The owners are
AL Page, landlord of the Central hotel
here, W. H. Payne, Fred Stevens et al.
The Butler is giving good promise of de
reloping into a mine. This property is at
the lower end of Wardner.
A contract has been let for running 200
feet on the Old Abe, a prominent location
on Elk creek, two miles east of Wardner.
It is expected that this will cut the ledge,
or the southern one of the two, cropping on
the asurface.
Senator Julius Kleine has returned from
Chicago, where he succeeded in organizing
a stock company for the development of
the Old Blindy and other adjacent locations
on Big cruek, four miles east of Wardner.
A drift will be driven about 600 feet to
crosscut the ledge. P. C. Coohran is in
charge of the work. This ledge is on the
dry ore belt, running parallel with the
Bouth Fork. The Blake brothers, owners
of the Yankee Boy, now have thirty to
:forty tons of grap copper ore at the track
ready for shipment, worth $y,0 per ton,
also on this ledge. The Sherman, on Elk
creek, a discovery of the past summer, is
also on the same ledge.
A deal is being consumated on the Eureka
Crown Point location, on Government
gulah, which has been in dispute the past
rve years, being in possession of the two
parties alternately, it is stated that the con
flicting interests have been consolidated.
The Union mine at Barke have built
their concentrator near the month of
Oanyon croek, six milHes doWu., dependi~n
upon railroad transportatIon for 4ei.trinp
their ore from the mine to conesntrator.
Their plant is nearly ready to be started,
and they are anxious to per.clt arrange
meptslfr shipments, but a new trouble is
eet. Their ore bin at Bark', i built be
tween the Union and Northern Poifito
tracks. The gulch being narrow, the tracki
are beina near esoh other, and each oiam
pany reasee to allow the other to treepaes
on its ground to lay tracks to the bin,
MONTANA SAPPHIRE PIRED.
An English Company BDring Formed to
Work Eldorado Btr.
A cable from London, under date of Oo
tober 4, announces that financiers of that
city are about to float a company known as
the Sapphire and Ruby company of Mon
tna. The cable says the report made by
Mr. Streeter, the noted dealer in preioous
stones. and other experts, are favorable to
the samples which have been submitted,
"but none of them state they have person
ally viewed the property where the so.called
samples are supposed to have been gaRth
ered," The item coneludes: "London in
vestors have written to the governor of
Montana about it, and his reply is awaited
with much anxiety."
It was scarcely necessary for the London
ors to write to Gov. Toole, as young Mr.
Streeter visited the Montana fields a year
ago last spring, took some of the stone out
himself. went to London, and reported
most favorably on them. He came to Mon
tana direct from the South African dia
mond ields, and in his report to the elder
Streeter, the latter pronounced the discov
eries in Montana the most important
since the finds in the South
tfrioan fielde. 'he formation of this
3ompany is simply depending upon the
luestion of the stones being in Montana.
end of there being several thousand acres
sf these sapphire and ruby fields,
here is no question. The property
n question is probably that owned
vy the Spratt syndicate, which, while it has
sever been worked, has been so thoroughly
erospected as to establish beyond doubt its
alue as a producer of rubles, sapphires
ed other stones of like character. If the
Bnglish doubters will visit Helena they
vlll have the evidence of the existence of
heus .eolds in the windows of every jewelry
stablishmoent in the city. Up to two years
go, while the stones were known to be in
ubnndance on Eldorado bar, they were
bought to be of no value. That is the
eason the world has heard so little of them
ip to the present time.
The Etta.
Peter Larson, the well-known mining
nan of Castle, who has been in town ssv
ral days, announces that work on the Etta
as been continued. Six men are now
rorking night and day. The shaft is dpwn
80 feet and will be nushed farther down
lrough the great ore- body. The vein is
hat of the Cumberland extension. It
romises to be a great property and will be
xtensively developed.

Business College.
We are grieved to see students going out from
school after a few weeks' course in some busi
eess college (our own not excepted), only half
itted to perform the ordinary duties of business
ife. It is true that we can furnish the finishing
ouches in the science of accounts to, and make
first-class accountant out of a person who has
lad two or three years' experience in business for
ilmself or his employer, in three months' time,
or he realizes what his deficiencies are and what
principles must necessarily b3 well impressed on
lie mind; but we cannot make a first-class book
ceeper out of a student who has hadno previous
rnowledge of actual business in less than six
nonths.
No school can conscientiously advertise to
omplete a course in either shorthand or book
ceeping in less time, for neither science can be
completed in leas time, to say nothing of other
>ranches absolutely necessary to the qualification
of a first-class stenographer or bookkeeper.
ituaents often come to us, having been promised
I situation by some business man, to qualify for
ne position, as if his whole snot es depended
en that one position. He asks us to fit him for
hat position in the short time of one month or
ix week. He performs his duties to the satis
action of his employer, perhaps, but when he
omes to cope with a first-class bookkeeper or
tenographer, alas! he is "left," to use the school
ory expr3ession. A sad experience teaches many
hat it is better to be futly competent, though it
ost more, than partially fitted, to cope with an
other.
Now we want students to come for a term of
ix months, in which time we guarantee to give
hem a complete course, if they make good use
f th it time. The theory of bookkeeping will
onsume about four months, taking into consid
ration the other necessary branches. The other
,wo months will be given to business practice.
Ye mean to go further than edvertise a business
ractice department. We shall have it in our
chool and get out of it the best results possible.
es have the best room for this department in
selena.
Realizing that many students are not able to
ay out much money in an education, we shall
educe tuition for six months from $50 to $t0.
this reduction will, we think, be appreciated by
nany students who are economic in their ex
senditure of money. The reduction will take
tfect at once, and continue until Oct. 30, 1891.
Although the Montana Business C'ollege has
lone but little advertising, except through its
tudente, it has been well patronized, as students
nud others friendly to its existence are aware.
Phis can be accounted for only in the fact that it
ers founded by men of integrity and moral
