During the recent convention of the Canadian Milling Institute, which was held at Trait, a very interesting paper was presented by Mr; L. R. Clapp, formerly assistant general manager at Anyox and now general manager at Copper Moun-1 tain, The paper dealt with mining conditions at Anyox, and an outline of the various departments operated by the Granby Co., at Anyox. Following are a few of the subjects dealt with by Mr. Clapp, and will prove interesting reading to a large number of our readers. General Outline "At Anyox, the Granby. Company is mining and smelting directly i in blast furnaces, about 3,000 tons a day of « heavy pyrite oopper ore, which barries perhaps 2 per oent of copper, and 30/50e. per ton iu gold and silver. /To carry on these essential operations, it also operates a water power plant of 4'hput 10,000 k. w. capacity with a 5,000 k. w. auxiliary steam plant. r It produces about 60,000 tons a year of coke from by- piMuc't^ekeoveisii1 from which it also obtains,and sells about 2,000,000 pounds a year of ammonia and ammonia salts, 500,- OO'O gals, of tar, and 160,000 gals, of' motor benzol; it operates an electric railway handling about 6000 ton miles of material eaoh day it has a well equipped iron and brass foundry, extensive blacksmith machine, boiler, car repair, and carpenter shops," . Diamond Drill used for Prospecting "Nearly 15,000,000 tons of, ore has so far been developed in seven qrebodies, of which oyer 13,000,000 tons have an average copper content of 2.14 per cent. The gold! and silver values vary from about 12c in No. 3. ore body, to 90 cents per ton in No. 5. Chalcopyrite is the only oopper mineral of conse- '.. quence, and is intimately mixed with both pyrite and pyrhotite. Zinc blends and arsenopyrite are found in very small amounts." t • "Only three of the seven ore bpd- .ies so far developed showed any considerable outcrop on the surface. The others have been encountered by diamond drilling and lie, usually under an overhanging curtain of argillites. Practically all the prospecting for a new ore, and also the laying out of development work is done with the diamond drill, and a total of about 27 miles of diamond drill cores have been made to date. The rock conditions are very favorably for this type of work. Drilling is slow on account of the extreme hardness of the sijioified portions of the ore bodies, but coring is most satisfactory and is very seldom that 100 per cent, cores for the footage drill is not obtainable. The work is all done on contract by a firm of diamond drill .men from Spokane, and overall costs average from $2.00 Good Strike of Ore Made on Toric Property Mr. J. Strombeek, who has spent considerable time this year on the Toric property doing development work, arrived in town on Thursday, having completed the season's work. Most of the work done this year on the Torio has been on what is known as the No. 1. Ledge. A tunnel was commenced on this ledge to get underneath some high grade surfaoe showings located two years .ago. Samples taken from this ore body gave the exceptionally high returns of 9000 ozs. silver per ton The tunnel Was started on an ore vein one foot wide, and at a distance of thirty feet from the portal this vein widened to five feet in- width* The vein has a dip of about 70 degrees, and the latter part of the tunnel was driven on the hanging wall. The ore is composed of galena, argentite and native silver the latter being found in small throughout.the ore. - -'-.' This No. 1. ledge can be traced on the surface for over 400 feet, and samples taken from open outs have given returns pf 30 ozs. in sih'er per ton. The ore found in the tunnel, However," carries dtJJMdr- erable more silver, and samples will be sent out for * assaying. This is the first tunnel driven on this ledge and the results obtained this year are very encouraging, and an early start Will be made with develop ment work next spring. The Toric practically joins the Dolly Varden, and is on the yeast side of the Kitsault river. This last strike was made at a distance of only 125 feet elevation above the railroad grade to the Wolf, so that should the Dolly Varden railroad be operating next year, the ohances are good that the Toric will be shipping ore. Two more ore ledges, exist on the Toric, the No. 2 being at an elevation of 60 feet above No. 1. and paralleling it in a north-easterly and sonth-westerly direotion. : No. 3. ledge is at an elevation of 1000 feet above No. 2. and oan be traced on the surface for over 900 feet. Considerable work has been done on both theseledges with good results. .-, Interesting Debate Held at Alice Arm The first debate to be held this season was given at the Anglican Churoh, on Tuesday evening, under the auspices of the Alice Arm Sooial League. A large number of people were present and a very interesting evening was spent, by everyone both the speakers, and. the audience;, The subjeot" debated was: "Resolved thatFederat government should own and operate all railways in Canada." Speakers for the to $2.50 per foot." Novel Method used in Diamond Drill Work "Core records have been qarefully preserved, and when assays are made, the core is carefully split longitudinally, and half being ground lip for assay pulp, and the other half preserved for geological record* In this way they have a complete and easily available record of practically every hole that has been drilled on the property since the start.

The ohair was iaooupied by Al. Falconer. - Mr. E. Moss opened the argument for the affirmative, aiid claimed that private ownership was not to the best interests of the people of Canada. |'i That the C. P. R. were using! all their influence to discredit the National Railways, and were holding lip the oountry's progress by high rates, especially in the west Mr. J. Anderson was the next speaker, and stated that it was impossible for any government to proouregoodmaftfeiJiJiueufc; As each government, which came into power were apt to change managements and disrupt the whole system, and favortism would play a large part in official appointments. Mr. C. Drennan then came to the support of the affirmatives/ He gave a short history of the countries operating their own railways and stated that these countries where government ownership prevailed the railways Were operated more oheaply and gave as good service as those countries, operating railways by , private ownership, If cities can operate their own Street railways he said, why can't the railways be successfully operated by the government. Mr. T. W. Falconer was the next speaker to take the* floor. In defending private ownership of railways he Stated that the C. P. R. were paying big taxes all over the provinces, while-the government payed nothing on their railway property. That the C. P. R. were more than doing their share in developing the Country, and that $40,000,000 had been spent by the government on the P. G. E. which money had been thrown away. Mr. G. Bruggy was strong in his defence of government ownership He said when the C. P. R. Company were raising funds to build their railway the bonds were guaranteed by the government, and a large part of the country was given them The whole railroad system of Can ada should be owned by the govern ment, and the profits kept at home for the benefit of the people. Mr. C. P. Riel was the last speaker for the negative side, and he spent a good portion of his time in criticizing his opponents remarks, He stated that no one could blame the C. P. R. for holding the country back, and from past and present Hallowe'en Dance Held at Anyox On Monday October 29th, the Hospital Auxiliary comprised of Mrs. Kelley (President), Mrs; Eve, Mrs, Cooper, Mrs. Kribbs, Mrs. Morning, Mrs. Conway and MrSl Jenkinson gave their Annual Hallowe'en Dance. The object being to provide additional comforts for the patients. From start to finish everything was perfect; The Hall was decorated in a manner which testifies to the labor and ingenuity of, these ladies. Black cats, weird figures, fancy lighting effects, floral decorations, effective stage setting, and an orchestra which gave of its best, all helped to make this, the Hospital 1923 Dance, stand out from all others as something unique. The refreshments were excellent, especially the ootfee, which was prepared by that well- known "coffee expert."'Mr. Jimmy Thompson, The orohestra was as follows: piano, Mrs. Ed.

V Mr. E. Moss made a five-minute rebuttal, and extensively criticised seme of the remarks of his opponents and ended a very interesting and instructive debate. On a vote being taken by the audience, those speaking iii th* affirmative were declared the winners by a majority of five. A small fire occurred on Sunday at the Kitsault Housed when the roof caught alight, due to a defective stove pipe. Gus Anderson, who operates the Kitsault Cafe, adjoining; first saw the fire aud gave the alarm. A large number of fire fighters were soon on the scene and what promised to be a serious cohflagation was quickly brought under' control. Messrs. S. Dumas and F.

The Fire Hazard The small fire which occurred last Sunday in the centre of the town of Alice Arm, again showed the necessity of a water system, in order that an adequate supply of water can be available. Luckily the fire was got under control before causing much damage, but the next time may be a different story. Until a water main is laid from Falls Creek to the town, property owners and others are running a great risk. At present, the best thing to do is for everyone to be as careful as possible. Examine your stove pipes occasionally to see if they need replacing, and also keep them clean. "Safety First" should be the watchword of everyone in Alice Arm. It is an exceedingly easy matter at the present time for a fire to quickly get beyond control and a careless act may be the means of a serious conflagation. Look Out for the Sharks The newspapers recently carried a pathetic story of an aged couple who invested and lost $35,000 in worthless stocks. It was every cent they had in the world and all of their lifetime savings. Their money was fooled away from them by the glittering promises of an unscrupulous broker who promised to make them millionaires. The man is seventy years old and blind, and today, he and his wife are penniless, and were it not for charity, they would be hungry. It is because the world is'full of sharks absolutely without mercy and full of people who believe that they can get something for nothing that* we print Editorials like this. We are trying to warn our people to keep hold of their money and never make an investment without the advise of a competent lawyer or banker, and without being absolutely sure that their lifetime savings are being put where they will be secure. In almost every neighbourhood there is somebody who tried to get rich too quickly and is now filled with hopeless and bitter regret. Are You Loyal? And again we remind you that this is a good town to live in, a good place to trade, and good one to keep your money in. But in time it will cease to be either unless you are as loyal to the town as it is to you. See which merchants are advertising in this paper and tell them what you want. Too Many Laws We have too many laws. No one knows the law in this country now, and no one can keep from violating some of the laws, There may be a time ahead, when the lawmakers will have the nerve to abolish some laws, and then pass a few,-just a few, to take their places. Iron Composed of Millions of Tiny Magnets Although iron is the commonest metal known, and the most important it has some very mysterious aspests. With the exception of one or two other metals, such as nickel, which are but faintly magnetic, iron is the only known metal with powers of magnetism, An ordinary piece of iron' is itself nothing more or less than tiny magnets Every atom of iron is a tiny magnet with its own north and south pole. But we do.not notice it because all these tiny magnets are higgledy-piggledy;, as it were, and neutralise each other's magnetism. When a piece of iron is made into a magnet, all these tiny magnets are brought into line. That is, the north pole of one tiny magnet joins on to the south pole of the one next to it, and so on. Thus, all the little bits of magnetism are added together and make one powerful magnet. That means that when a piece of iron is magnetised, its whole internal structure has been rearranged though no difference can be seen. As a matter of fact, when strongly magnetised a piece of iron increases in length, though of course to so little an extent that only the most accurate instrument can measure it. But if a bar of iron 720,000 feet long were strongly magnetised it would grow a foot in length! When a bar of iron is suddenly magnetised or demagnetised, a faint metalic clink can be heard in it. That is the sound of the iron atoms suddenly changing their positions. If the bar oe magnetised and demagnetised very rapidly, the, friction inside of the atoms moving will make the bar hot. A piece of iron can be made nearly red hot that way. ' There is another interesting fact about iron. If it is heated above a certain temperature, which is about r~ Ladies Silk Waists All Colors and Latest Styles Ladies Silk Skirts All Colors LEW LUN & Co., General Merchants West Side of Smelter ANYOX, B. C. 700 degrees Centigrade, it is no longer capable of being attracted by a magnet. When a length of; iron wire, white hot is suspended and then left to cool this curious process can be seen with the eye. Slowly the wire cools and becomes a dull red heat. Then, suddenly it becomes brilliantly hot again witn'ont the aid of any outside heat at all. This heat is caused merely by the iron atoms rearranging themselves again, and in the effort of doing so, developing an internal heat that causes a sudden rise in temperature. Ore Runs $1000 to the Gunny Sack Mining camps throughout the province generally figure the value in tons, but Rossland now figures by the gunny sack. The old I. X. L. mine is now taking out ore running $1000^to the gunny sack, and ten sacks per day are Being taken out by the lessees. The ore is being sent to Northport by express and trucked from there to the smelter»at Kellogg.

'It has been our experience that it is never safe to assume that a diamond drill hole will run in the direction in which it has been started. No matter whether a hole is vertical, flat, or inclined, it always deviates from its original course by an amount dependent on the angle with the rock struoture at which the hole is. drilled, by the effect of gravity on the drill rod, the presence of faults, slips, hard patohes, eto. We have found that the only dependable method is to survey each hole, (usually at 100 foot intervals), before attempting to plot it on our geological maps. For, this we use a small drill hole compass floating in warm gelatine in a glass tube and attached to several lengths of brass drill rod, which is loxyered to the desired point in the hole, and allowed to remain there until the gelatine cools and solidifies, thus fixing the position of the compass needle. The inclination of a hole is taken at the same time, by the usual hydrofluoric acid ring in the same glass tube." ■', One of the Systems Used in Mining Ore "The bulk of the mining at Anyox however, has been done by a system of , .underground glory-holing, brought to the Granby Company in the old days from the Michigan iron country by Mr. W. ¥1 Williams aud the Swanson brothers, who modified it to the local Phoenix conditions and improved on it. This work was later transferred to Anyox by Mr. John Swanson, our present Mine Superintendent, and has'been perfected by him there until it is a highly economical and safe method of mining large, hard ore bodies. It oonsists essentially of spiral raises which are started off from the top of the chute raises and swing around on a grade which is just flat enough for a man to walk up the trail. When complete, this raise resembles nothing so much as the impression left by a corkscrew, with a hollow oore and the spiral trail left around the outside of it from the bottom to the top. At the extremities of the swings of this spiral trail, connections are made to manway raises, driven through the pillars at either end of the stope, to afford ventilation - and easy access for powder and steel. Upon completion of the first spiral, depending upon the nature of the ground, either a second spiral is started, interlacing the first, or the first spiral is gradually enlarged, breaking always to the centre and benching off, when desirable, the shelves between the grooves in the spiral.. The stope is drawn empty eaoh day, and the; fall down the irregular chute, aots to a considerable extent, as a rook crusher to the larger slabs whioh are broken off. When neoessary, a rib pf the spiral oan be left as a strut aoross the stope to support some heavy ground, and this is usually drilled and later, some means found to reaoh it and blast it down." Stewart News in Brief Portland Canal News The Crawford Transfer Company are building a two storey, 24 t>y 40 blacksmith and repair shop on Conway street between Fourth and Fifth. With more than twenty of the best rook men of the northwest whaling away on construction of the new Stewart-Hyder road, the contractors are running a race against time, with every probability of winning their way through to the old wharf before the "big snow," which would foroe a cessation of the labor. With a full face of high grade ore in the drift being run both ways on the east and west vein, the Dunwell is making doubly sure the certainty of becoming one of the,big mines of the province, a certainty which was apparent when the vein was first crosscut in No. 2 tunnel and an immense ore body exposed to view. The drift each way is following the foot wall pf therein, the two faces now being over seventy feet apart, and leaving ten additional feet of solid ore on the hangiug. wall side. This ore has been heavily impregnated by secondary enrichments, abounding in native, argentite and ruby silver, besides the original sulphides. Some of the samples brought. to town look like a display in* a jewelry store window. Anyox Community If you are in need of a mental tonic, take advantage of the League Library.
