Also at Hazelton There may .also be increased ' aclivily in the llaxelton district, Mr. Calloway slates. He looks ' for resumption of work on the ttochcr de Itoule mines, at the Sunrise and possibly on the Silver Standard. The high price al present prevailing for lead should cause many silver-lead properties to bo worked this year in Ihe In terior district particularly the Habiue Houanxa, owned by James Croiiiu of Spokane, which Mr. Calloway predicts may do some shipping this year. Transporta tion has always been u ditllculty as far as shipping from the Hon- aiua has been concerned, but the belter flrice for lead may make the marketing of its production possible. Several other properties in the district are in u similar position and may be similarly stimulated this year. The Hon-ania Is another properly which will require a mill lo make pos sible profitable .production on any scale. OLD COUNTRY FOOTBALL FlrsTBivTslon Weslham 2,. Huildersriebl 3.
