Although numerous requests have been made for a repeat performance j it was decided that such was impracticable, because of the demands on sohool time and energies whioh can be ill afforded at any season. The meeting passed a hearty and unanimous vote of thanks to those who so •willingly helped, .to. add i enjoyment to the concert by their generous efforts,; among, whom, were Mrs. KribftsV T. P.

On Sunday, a hockey ganie. was staged by the ladies, of the town, arid the game was a sizzler from start to finish. After a closely contested game the winning side were, declared ,. winners with. ,a soore of some few goals over their opponents. A friendly game.'.was also played between the male' exj- ponents of the puck chasing game which was up to the usual high standard. On Wednesday, the girls and boys locked horns—or rather hockey, sticks—-iii mortal combat. , And the girls, jjist to: shp.w, that the "modern maid" is in no way inferior to the lordly male, 'kept'the boysarbustlingfor45 minutes,and finally beat them with a score of 7-6. • ';.;'.■ -'•• ; ■;■ The first League match of the Alice Arm Hookey League' was played on Friday afternoon before a.large gathering of fans,, wheti the Cougers and Wildcats mangled each other for three thrilling periods, v Some of the wildest of I the cats failed to put in an appearance, but' their places were filled with an equally enthusiastic number of their brethren.

The commencement of the year, finds the copper market still in the . dumps, with prices ranging between 14 and 15 cents per lb. Copper today is the poor member of the metal family, and the present low price is discouraging "for the producers, who are endeavoring to carry on in the hope of shortly being able to obtain better prices for their product. Recent advices from all oyer the continent predict 'that the price of the yellow metal will very soon commence to climb, owing to the fact that the surplus stocks are being used up. We hope these statements are true, for a substantial increase in the price of copper, will immeasurably increase the prosperity of the northern B. C. mining camps. The price of silver still stands around the 64 cent mark, and while this metal has fluctuated during the year; the present price is practically the same as at the commencement of 1921, when silver was quoted 64 1-8 cents per oz. There are a number of very promising silver prospects in this district and if the price of silver maintains its present value there is no doubt that a number of these properties, in the vicinity of Alice Arm will be developed during the year, and also that the Dolly Varden and Wolf properties will again be in operation, now that they are under new management. It is predicted that northern British Cojlumbia is about to witness one of the biggest mining booms in the world. It has been conclusively proved by the Premier at Stewart, the Dolly Varden mine at Alice Arm and the Hidden Creek mine at Anyox, that the country is exceptionally rich in mineral wealth, and the only thing that is needed to prove up similar properties is capital and this is especially true of Alice Arm. It is however hoped that when capital is expended in this district, that it will be wisely and judiciously spent, and that the past mistakes of operators will not be repeated. Drum Lummon Ore For Anyox Smelter The Drum Lummon mine, situated on Douglas Channel, about 40 miles from Surf Inlet, is preparing to make monthly shipments of ore to Anyox smelter: , About 3000 tons will be shipped each month. Since last May, 30 men have been employed on the property, and $60,000 spent on developement work. The company is capitalized at $3,000,000, and is financed in New York. The ore is high grade, and carries copper, gold and silver. Suit is to be Entered Against Premier Gold Mining Co. Suit is about to be entered in the Vancouver courts, by a company known as the Silver Ores Incorporated, against the Premier Gold Mining Co., for the purpose of recovering title to certain Salmon River mineral claims, known as the Premier Extension Nos. 1, 2,'S and 4,. the Extension Fraction, the True Blue, and the Gloria Fraction. The suit is to be launched by J. A. Campbell, of the firm of Congdon, Campbell & Meredith, of Vancouver, acting on instructions from A. A. Marshall, of New York, one of the large shareholders in the Silver Ores Incorporated, According to Mr. Campbell, it will be alleged that Capt. Fader, one time president of the Silver Ores, Ltd., purchased the claims from the funds of the Silver Ores, and putting them in his own name fraudulently sold thein to the Premier' Co. The claims adjoin the Premier, and are considered very valuable. A good story is going the rounds here of how Dick Drew, well-known in the Slocan, played even for loss of sleep occasionally for the gang oft' shift yarning into the "wee sma' ours:" They had drilled "starters," and "lifters," worked in singles and doubles," and just as one driller was commencing to back that prince of liars, Annanias, oft' the map, Dick rolled out of .his bunk, lighting the fuse of what appeared to be a stick of blasting powder, he remarked: "Quit drilling, boys, time to blast." Walking to the stove he threw it in. Our typewriter fails us when we try to set down the language of a shivering bunch who later returned on seeing Dick beckon them from the door. The charge proved to be only a piece of broomstick with fuse attached. —Phoenix Pioneer. National Railways Shows Large Increase of Business * The Canadian National Railways, including the Grank Trunk Railway, earned $2,158,744 during October 1022, an increase of more than 107 per cent. over October 1821. In the same month the operation dropped from 91.92 in October 1921 to 84.68 in October 1922. During the month of October, this year the system carried the largest volume of freight in its history.

A. Lauzier, of Butte, Montana, president of the Lauzier-Woloott Co., while on a visit to Spokane, recently. , Mr. Lauzier said he found basis for the expectation in the reduced surplus and the growing demand. The production is less than the consumption. "The. declaration of a 75-ceut dividend by Kennicott, indicates'a confidence in the future of the copper market, for if the outlook was not promising it is not probable that the dividend would have been declared." A stablizing effeot on the copper metal market'is expected to result ..when negotiations are concluded by the Anaconda Copper Mining Company for the purchase of the control of the Guggenheim corporation, as Chile, with its low costsi holds the balance of power in copper production. , Chile owns the largest copper deposits in the world, and produces 14,000,000 pounds monthly at a cost slightly over six cents a pound laid down in New York, exclusive of taxes and interest. This cost is far below that in the United States where some producers are believed to be making a little profit. The acquisition of Chile will enable Anaconda to control its reduction and price. ^ Subscribe to the Herald ALICE ARM FREIGHTING Co. 1 \ GENERAL CONTRACTORS BAGGAGE. FREIGHT. TEAMING. COAL AND WOOD.
