This company has secured options also on certain holdings about two miles farther north on the ridire, ly- : hoi ween Hie south form of Lit tle Untie creel; and the north folk of Little liutte creek. Some very pood looking manga nose ore is found out cropping in the same formation and probably a continuation of Die same volcanic tuff bod. The devel opment work here is confined to eight or 10 surface cuts, exposing in most eases ore which appears to be of concentrating grade. The volcanic tuft' bed in which the ore is found lies between flows of basalt-, the ourlying rocks of which on this particular ball have been very "largely removed by erosion. A glance at the topographic sheei above referred to will show that at ItaM '2,000 to :i,000 feet of theo rocks have been removed by erosion iu the tributaries of the tattle Uutte creek. I have not as yet had the fisSt: s.&s.i 0 jnriwV' Ml wmm X i 5 mi ?V b ' !' L I 1 on U lit OF A BABY-KltLER opportunity to particularly study the local conditions, in order to suggest a theory of the origin of these ores, but it seems probable from mv hur ried study of the situation that the manganese, ore described will be found to be the product of weather ing and rock decay f the overlying rocks and that they wore concentrat ed in those very porous tuff beds, argely, if not entirely by the notion of do ending surface waters, Prospecting Drill. . Very good use is being made of the prospecting drill at the present time -and il seems probable lliat the development work which is now in progress will show that the mangan ese ore is distributed or disseminated through this tuff bed in sufficient (juantity and quality to mae it pos sible to mine a very large portion of it. If this low grade manganese ore is distributed throughout the entire I depth of the tuff, they will soon have demonstrated a very large tonnage of ore. In fact, if Ibis be I lit ease, il. can he demonstrated wilhin a few weeks that ore sufficient to stipply the entire needs of the government will lie here available, provided prop er equipment is installed of sufficient capacity. Although the milling of mangnnoso ores is comparatively a new field and has been many times attempted with unsatisfactory results, if seems rea sonable lo expect, owing to the pe culiar texture and the occurrence of these bard, rih grains of manganese oxide in a comparatively soft tuff gangne, that the ordinary processes of water concentration would be sue- ce-sl'ul. A small ovncrinienf al mill was built last winter about 450 feel below the la rye open pit on the west side of the hill. The mill consists of a gyra tory crusher of about 550 Ions daily capacitv. two sets of rolls and two Kaust jigs.

This maebinery has been installed under the direction of the Kaust Concentrator ' company of Seattle. Some deails of the mill are not well arranged and on this ac count they have been operating under difficulties- Notwithstanding J these difficulties they have produced re ceutly about 200 tons of 50 xv cent concentrates from the two jigs, con ' tabling J'rom .10 to 34 per cent silicia. At my suggestion, Mr. C. W. Scott, the manager, shipped to the Mining Kxperimotit stattion at Seattle, a few hundred pounds of this ore so that we eau assist them in working out the very best scheme of concentra tion possible.

Business men and resldonts of the city were surprised this morning to find a lame red cross painted on the window of every business place In the : city, and beneath It In white letters .. the one appealing word, "Hive."

The crosses aro nalnted on the outside of the win dows and will easily wash off,, but will not rub off. It Is worthy of com ment that not a single red cross fas washed oft or Interfered with In an:, way, altho most ot them rather ob structed window displays. It Is understood that windows In business districts thruout the United States have all been treated the same way under orders from Red Cross headquarters ror tne purpose oi aa vertising the' great Red Cross drive which began today.
