A
SCEXES AT THE MIXE
ALONE prospector wandering
through the rugged hills near the
headwaters of turbulent Shirt
Creek in lower Skamania County,
Washington, a few evenings ago, was
dtartled to hear the soft, sweet strains
of Verdi's classic "Rlgoletto" floating
o'n the still twilight air. He paused
and listened, for such sounds as these
he had never heard in that untraveled
region before. Spellbound by the music
he waited a while, then started in the
direction from which the sounds seemed
to emanate.
His trained feet and sturdy limbs
iuickly carried him through the tan
tied underbrush and jagged rocks that
sty between him and the source of the
.'harming notes. Soon he stood at the
Entrance of a long, airy dining hall
brilliantly illuminated with electric in
candescent lamps, and a square, up
right box whose highly polished sides
hone brightly under the glare of the
lights, standing In the center of the
room. Around it was gathered a group
of 20 or more bright-faced, horny
handed miners clad In the picturesque
rarb of their profession. As soon as
.hey pled him they bade him a hearty
welcome.
Music Cheers Workmen.
He was In the camp of the Washougal
Sold & Copper Mining Company. The
piece of furniture which had arrested
bis first attention was a mahogany
"amberola" containing the finest in
struments that can be placed in the
manufacture of such a machine. This
lecounted for the music that he had
Heard far up on the hillside.
The cheery disposition of the men
nd the kindly attention that was
.ihown him soon placed him entirely at
rase. He began to ask questions.
'"What Is the cause of all this?" he
Inquired.
.. I'or an answer one of the men, with
Jerk of his head, indicated a little,
smooth - faced. ruddy - cheeked. gray
paired gentleman who stood with his
rms folded complacently behind his
ack, his arms costless and with his
brown, telescope hat hanging Jauntily
on the side of his head In school-boy
taxhion. His face beamed his delight
as he listened to the music. The
4trnger had not noticed him before.
"Thlf In Mr- Muhop "' n I rl r . V.
men who had acted as spokesman. The
quiet gentleman stc. ped forward. He
hook the prospector's hand and told
him to make himself comfortable.
Victuals and drinks were soon placed
Ms disposal.
Mr. Mabee. as he soon learned. Is presi
dent of the Washougal Gold & Copper
lining company and peneral manager of
its properties. F. A. Mahee. is the way
his name appears on his checks.
Property Well Kqulppeil.
The company of which Mr. Mabee ia
the head, owns and operates one of the
'-flest equipped and most promising min
hi( properties in the Pacific Northwest.
Two tunnels and a complete stamp mill
are in steady operation. All the acces
sories that ar consistent with practical
and economical mining have been pro
vided, both under ground and on the sur
face. At present the principal mineral show
jns: is in the south tunnel which has been
driven about 650 feet to the breast of a
vwest drift started 619 feet from the
, portal. The entire drift has passed
JthrouBh a solid bod of mineral averag
ing seven feet in width. The vein is a
true fissure in the country rock which
Jseems to be a porphyritic substance of
(Unquestioned volcanic origin.
Geologists are at variance as to the
Jorlgin of the mineral contained in the
nssure. Mr. Mabee and other experts
who have examined the property declare
fthat it was caused by an upheaval from
"the Interior of the earth while others
contend that the ore was deposited there
-by surface streams of ages past.
J The streak has a visible outcrop on
,the surface which, exposed to the ele
ments, has oxidlxed to a depth of prob
JaWy 100 feet. The copper, which Is the
principal metal in th ore, has leached
away from the oxide.
. Copper Values Predominate.
While copper values predominate In all
the material taken out to date, the ore
is also rich In gold and silver. A recent
Sample. which is undoubtedly a fair
average, showed -OS ounce gold, . 12.4S
ounces silver and 19.97 per cent, copper,
which gives the ore a value of a little
more than $5S per ton.
s Ore of practically the same commer
'clal value has been opened in the tun
nel on the north hill. It carries a small
amount of tine, but not sufficient to
.penalize It If aold on a copper basis.
The north tunnel has more than 1500

feet of workings. A vein was cut about
570 feet from the portal. This has been
followed westward for a distance of
747 feet, but the present work is be
ing done In an upraise about 400 feet
from the turnsheet. The tunnel can
easily produce 50 tons per day. The
vein here is of the same nature as
that on the south hill. It has been
quite extensively worked, but when Hs
slza is considered, comparatively little
has been done there.
The main north tunnel is about 600
feet long. Near the breast a winze
has been sunk 66 feet. This is 5x9 In
the clear and is capped with a double
compartment shaft and equipped with
a 15-horsepower hoist, a sinking pump
and drainage pump. Mr. Mabee is ar
ranging to sink this winze to a depth
of more than 1000 feet. It It remains
on the vein, as It now Is, he will run
out a level every 100 feet.
At various places along the west
drift of the north bore stopes and up
raises have been driven. Ore has been
taken from all of them. The vein in
the north hill Is not so wide as the
other, averaging about four feet, but
width has been gained with distance.
Both veins pitch into their respect
ive hills. The hanging wall in the
north vein Is almost vertical at some
places.
Timbering Not Necessary.
A feature that has eliminated much
cost in the development of this prop
erty is the substantial condition of both
walls of the veins, which precludes
the necessity of timbering. However,
should timbers be needed In the future
they can be secured with ease, as all
of the company's property is heavily
wooded.
Wood Is burned under the boilers and
Is used for heating, a small force of
men being constantly engaged in fall
ing and cutting it. All of the build
ings and much of the furniture In the
living apartments of the men have
been constructed from timber cut on
the ground.
Until the present year the ore pro
duced from the two tunnels was stored.
Hauling is expensive and the company
had a mill In contemplation. Henry
Johnson Is superintendent of all under
ground work.
Early this year the mill was com
pleted. It is thoroughly modern and
fully 'equipped with every Item of ma
chinery necessary for the rapid and
complete separation of the mineral
from waste material. Fortunately the
property Is so situated that the mill
can be operated on a gravity system.
1 he ore Is carted from the mouth of
either tunnel on a common track and
trestle to the top of a four-story mill,
where it is thrown into the 100-ton
hopper. From there It successively
passes through a 7x10 jaw crusher,
three 1400-pound Nlssen stamps with
40-mesh screens, over three six-foot
amalgamating tables, a Pierce amalga
mator, a hydraulic classifier and the
slime over a Frue-Vanner rubber belt,
while the coarser material goes across
a modern Wilftey table. The installa
tion of a second Wilfley table and a set
of Huntington rolls is a possibility of
the near future. When running full
for 20 hours per day, the mill will
handle about 100 tons of ore.
Smelter Is on Ground.
Of the present production one ton of
concentrate is obtained from each eight
ton lot of ore. A recent strike in the
south tunnel which contains a heavy
deposit of copper may give a ton of
concentrate in each six-ton lot. The
material that goes to the smelter, there
fore, will be worth from J200 to J300
per ton. The mill is in charge of Wil
liam McFarland of Portland and Frank
Kerwin.
A complete smelting plant has been
purcnasea ana is on the ground. It
will be set up and started in operation
as soon as possible. In the meantime
the concentrates will be stored in a
building constructed for that purpose.
"Nothing but the pure bullion will be
hauled out of here," says Mr. Mabee.
The surface property, in addition to
the mill, again exhibits the disposition
of the company to purchase nothing but
the best. It consists of two 40-horse-power
flretube boilers, well housed:
two lOxlS air compressors, one S5
horsepower steam engine, one air re
ceiver, a hot water feed, a four-foot
Pel ton water-wheel, a four-foot saw
mill, a two-foot slab saw, a lo-horse-power
logging engine, a large Connels
vllle blower and a three-foot fan blow
er. Steam to operate the mill Is eon
ducted in a three-inch pipe encased in
sawdust.
- Electricity for use In the entire camp
is provided through a 15-kilowat gen
erator attached to the engine at the
mill. Every building In the place is

equipped with lights and the men have
an incandescent bulb to light their
paths through the bowels of the earth
while at work under ground.
The camp is additionally equipped
with a blacksmith shop where the tools
are sharpened and repaired and where
the half score of horses in use there
are provided with shoes. This building,
like all the others, is substantially con
structed. Assay Office Completed.
One of the most complete assay of
fices ever set up, has just been com
pleted. All the samples as well as the
concentrate samples are run through
there. This work is in charge of Mark
Harris, a graduate of the Michigan
College of Mines and an assayer and
metalurgist of many years experience.
He also acts as bookkeeper for the
company. While a civil engineer is not
regularly employed all the tools that
a man of that profession requires in
his work are on hand. A draftsman's
table and a complete set of Instruments
are also a part of the company's prop
erty. The mechanical work is In charge of
Miller Masterson, who has superintend
ed the construction of most of the
buildings and whose genius has re
sulted in the plant being so arranged
as to prevent unnecessary loss of time
and labor in all departments.
Recently Sullivan air drills were in
stalled in both tunnels and under fav
orable or average conditions they cut
40 feet per week. The south tunnel is
8 by 7 in the clear, while the other is
Vt by 7 for the first 400 feet, after
which it is the size of the south tun
nel. The rock is comparatively soft and
but eight holes are necessary for a
round of shots. Standard 40 per cent
dynamite is used. With the force that
it is possible to exert on the blower
the mine can be cleared of all smoke
and fumes in less than 10 minutes after
a shot. Both tunnels are equipped
with steel rails and adequate drainage
channels.
The drainage Is carried Into a steel
tank and pumped into the mill for use
in the stamps and tables.
Water Supply Generous.
An additional source of water is a
flume tapping Shirt Creek far up in
the gulch and running for nearly a
mile along the side of the north hill.
Immediately above the camp it is
stored, the pressure thus obtained
operating the water wheel. This power
is turnea onto tne main shafting and
joined with that from the steam en
gines. Fire protection and a complete water
works system for the camp are main
tained from the storage water. Large
quantities of hose and taps at conveni
ent places have been provided. The
men practice fire drills. This system
has resulted in an appreciable reduc
tion In insurance rates.
Since the start of operations two ten
hour shifts have been worked, giving em
ployment to about 40 men. Beginning
with October 1, however, the entire plant
will be placed on an eight-hour basis.
working a proportionately larger number
of men. The quarters of the laborers
and mechanics are unusually well ap
pointed, but the most lavish comfort has
been expended and daily is being ex
pended, in the mammoth dining hall and
kitchen. The latter compartment is
equipped with an Immense steel range
and all the utensils that are to be found
in a modern hotel. The kitchen floor
is of cement, in keeping with the com
pany's policy to maintain a healthful
sanitary standard.
Two tables, always covered with snowy
white cloths, run the full length of the
dining hall. Porcelain dishes are provid
ed. Much silverware (graoes the tables.
Of the fare itself the healthy and satis
fied appearance of the men and the eager,
yet ordinary, manner in which thev
answer the call to meals gives convinc
ing testimony as to its palatable and
nourishing qualities. While the food is
first of all provided with the idea of keen
ing the bodies of the men vigorous and
healthful, many luxuries are set before
them at every meal
It is In the dining room that the music
box. a recent acquisition to the enter
tainment features of the camp, has been
lntalled and It Is here that the men
gather to while away their spare hours.
A library of standard and popular works
will be added before the arrival of win
ter. A wing to the dining room will
then house the reading and musical ma
terial.
All these improvements have grown up
ounng tne past ten years, it was only
ten years ago that Mr. Mabee. then only
a prospector, started the first tunnel in.
the hillside more than 200 feet above the
present north bore. He drove his first
tunned over 400 feet, caught the ore and
round that it extended down into the

hill. Then he started a new bore aa low
as possible and almost at the edge of
the stream at the base of the hill. In
the meantime he had been developing the
opposite mountain and proceeded in a
similar way there.
Locator Shows Faith.
Mr. Mabee himself located all but one
of the group of 00 claims comprising the
group now held by the company. This
one he purchased.
Five teams of horses now carry the sup
plies trom Cape Horn, on the S. P. & &.
to the camp, a distance of 16 miles. A
railroad to tap the neighboring logging
camps is now being built, and a line will
be extended to the mines. The first loco
motive whistle is expected to sound in
those hills early next Spring.
Mabee Holds Control.
The Washougal Gold & Copper Mining
Company is Incorporated for $1,000,000. Mr.
Mabee holds a controlling interest, ana
says he nas no stoCK ior sale. jonn
Scharvaurer, of Fort Worth, Texas, Is
vice-president of the company. James B.
Jordan, of St. Louis, is secretary. Small
blocks of the stock are held in Portland.
All of the company's supplies are pur
chased in this city. Sometimes these de
mand an expenditure of J25.000 per month.
The payroll at the camp often exceeds
$10,000. Mr. Matoee emplays none but
skilled mechanics, and the highest class
of miners and laborers. "
Many expert mining men have visited
the property and pronounced It one of
the most valuable in this region. Colonel
J. H. Flsk, who died 4n Naples a few
years ago, made a thorough examination
of the place in 190o, and prepared an ex
haustive report. He recommended it high
ly as a most promising proposition. Re
cently George Lawrence, Jr., a well-
known business man of Portland, visited
the property as a guest of Mr. Mabee.
He was surprised at the extensiveness of
the improvements. Other local men fre
quently go there with the president, who
has an enthusiasm over the possibilities
of the mine that is exceeded only by the
virtues of the property itself.
