Mine Club Scores ' Another Success Over Three Hundred Attend Smoker What was no doubt the best smoker pulled off in Anyox within several years, was held at the Mine Hall on Friday evening last. A crowd of well ovor three hundred were present and enjoyed thoroughly the high class programme provided. Those taking part wore: Owens aud Evans in a delightful duet. Isaac Skog, the accordionist supreme, delighted the audience with three well executed numbers. E. Blundell was iu line voice, also Ed. Craggs. Jimmy Mitohell contributed two nicely rendered numbers, one being of his own composition, having as its theme, local basketball enthusiasts. The Dr. Simmon's Cup, emblematic of the Senior basketball championship, was presented by Mr. C. McLachlan, President of the Community League, to Mr. P. Stewart, captain of the Mine team, who are winners of the trophy for 1924- 1925. ' Several boxing contests were staged during the evening. Cyril McDonald, Beach, opposed T. Farnell. Mine, in a fast three round bout. George Clark and T. Halverson also put up a nice exhibition, Archie Smith and Billy Reynolds boxed three rounds. Reynolds is a boxer of no mean ability, and no doubt would show a lot of class against some good lightweight. He also appeared in an exhibition match with his youthful protege, Russell McMillan, who showed considerable skill and is a credit to his teaoher. Evans and Arscott appeared in what proved to be the best bout of the evening, both exhibiting considerable boxing ability, and mixed it from start to finish. "Pigskin " Dearlove and "Glory Hole" Peters slugged through three torrid sessions, giving the fans plenty of thrills. The feature event of the evening was the wrestling match between Sam Goto and Dick Stubbs. Both men have plenty of ability, aud some nice wrestling was the result. Stubbs was the victor iu two straight falls. The first iu nine and-a-half minutes, and the second in six. Previous to the start of the bout, Stanley Komiskey was introduced and challenged the winner. Jimmy Mitchell acted as announcer for the events and kept things always ou the move. T, Gilmore was the time keeper. Pat Ryan was referee for the boxing, and Hilly Reynolds was the third man in the ring for the wrestling match. The Mine Orchestra kept the crowd in good humor during the evening. All told it was a very successful evening, and the Mine Club are to be congratulated on their ability as first class providers of entertainment and also as hosts. Boom of Logs Leave Alice Arm The first boom of logs to leave the logging camp of Miles Donald, left on Thursday evening for Prince Bupert sawmill. The boom comprised about 500,- 000 feet b.m, and was composed chiefly of high grade spruce. Over 500,000 feet are in tho water, and these also will be towed to Prince Rupert as soon as the boom can be made up. The rough weather down the inlet has lately interfered with booming operations. These logs will be used by the Rupert mill for commencing operations. Miles Donald's camp, which is near Campers Point, will operate throughout the coming summer. Young Couple of Anyox are Married In Prince Rupert A very quiet wedding was solemnized at Prince Rupert, on Friday March 27th., when Miss Lucy Teaho became the bride of Mr. Stanley Pamplin. The ceremony was performed at the residence of Archdeacon Rix, of St. Andrew's Anglican Church, at the hour of 7 p.m. Archdeacon Rix was the officiating clergyman. Both the young couple are well known iu Anyox. Previous to her marriage, Mrs. Pamplin resided here with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. Teabo. Mr. Pamplin has resided in Anyox for a number of years, and holds a position at the local printing plant. A large number of friends wish them all happiness and prosperity. The bride and groom arrived home on Monday, and will make their future home iu Anyox. They were accompanied by Mrs. F. Teabo, mother of the bride. It is not often that the public lave an opportunity to invest in a company such as they now have in the La Rose Mining Co. of Alice Arm. The property is known throughout the district as one of the best. The company are not handicapped by large overhead expenses. All development work will be in charge of practical men, who are anxious for its success. ♦ ♦.-♦•..+*+• +....A,.„+.,.+.,.+.,.+„. +..►+*!

LaRose Mining Shares Find Ready Market A meeting of the shareholders of the La Rose Mining Co. was held in Prince Rupert on Tuesday evening. Mr. J. M. Morrison stated this to the Herald on his arrival from the terminal city yesterday. Mr. Miles Donald, Alice Arm, was elected president, and Dr. W. T. Kergin, Prince Rupert, was elected Vice-president. The directors are: J. Wells, Alice Arm, and J. H. Thompson, hardware merchant, Prinoe Rupert.. E. H. Mortimer of Prince Rupert, was reelected secretary, and J. M. Morrison of Alice Arm, was appointed selling agent. It was decided to place a block of stock ou the market for immediate development purposes. Shares to be sold at 50 cents each, and same can be obtained from E. H. Mortimer, Prince Rupert, or J. M. Morrison, Alice Arm. It was also decided to undertake a programme of development work as soon as the snow is off the ground. Mr. Morrison states that he was successful in disposing of quite a large amount of stock in Prince Rupert. The officers of the company are all local men, wdio are known throughout the district as •eliable business men. The prop- rty is also widely known on iccount of ore shipments and government engineer's reports as a property worthy of investment, and this aided considerably in disposing of stock without any difficulty. Tunnel on Veba Veda Is Being Extended The tunnel on the Veba Veda property is being extended 50 feet by Archie McPhail, assisted by Paul Jacob. When this work is completed the tunnel will have a length of 300 feet, and it will have encountered ore or will have but a short distance to go. The Veba Veda, which until recently was known as the Independent, is situated on the hill west of Alice Arm and is about one mile from town, A nice vein of ore was discovered ou the property a few years ago by Archie McPhail, and a shaft was sunk on it a distance of 14 feet. The shaft proved that the ore vein widened from 2i feet on the surface to 5i feet in the bottom of the shaft. The ore is silver, it is identical to the Esperanza ore, and picked samples have given assay returns of 70 ounces silver per ton. The tunnel, which is now being driven, is expected to strike the ore vein in the shaft at a depth of 100 feet. The ore is lying against a porphry dyke on the foot wall, and argillite on the hanging wall. It dips sharply into the hill, and it is anticipated that it will be necessary to drive the tunnel 50 feet beyond the shaft before the vein is picked up. The strike of the vein is north and south. Company Organized by Mr. Geo. Bruggy While In South Mr. Geo. Bruggy arrived home yesterday from a three month's trip to Vancouver, in which was combined business with pleasure. In an interview with the Herald Mr. Bruggy stated he had been successful in forming a company in the south for the purpose of developing the Montana property, which is situated on the Marmot river, a short distance from Stewart, and in which he holds an interest. The company will be known as the Marmot River Mining Co., and Angus McLeod, of Stewart, who holds an interest in the property, will he managing director. Mr. McLeod is known throughout the Portland Canal district as a thorough practical mining man, and the management of the property could not be in better hands. The Montana group were the lirst claims staked in the Marmot River section, and it holds the record of being the lirst property iu tlie Stewart district to ship ore to a smelter at a profit. The officers of the company invite the closest investigation in regard to the management of the company, and also the future prospects of the property developing into a mine. It is the intention that at least 80% of the money subscribed will be spent on the property for development purposes. Instead of doing their mining around Vancouver Hotels—as is the case in many instances—the money will be spent where it should be—ou the ground. A large number of shares have been sold and the future outlook is full of promise. Messrs. Rolston and Rookford, of Stewart, are the fiscal agents for the company. Toric Mine Has Closed For a Few Weeks The Toric Mine, whose spectacular ore showing of the past few months have made such a stir in mining circles throughout the province, ceased operations for a few weeks on Thursday. The cause of the cessation was due to a shortage of powder and rails. As soon as the Dolly Varden tracks are clear of snow, supplies of all kinds will be moved in, and work will be pushed with renewed vigor. It is expected that about six weeks will elapse before actual mining operations will recommence. At the time of the close-down the No. 1 crosscut tunnel had cut 156 feet of ore, and the hanging wall had uot yet been reached, riiis tunnel is now following the fault, and has cut into the fault in several places. The ore maintained its value right up to the last round. ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Saturday!

(Jontract Kates on Application, E. MOWS, Editor and Publisher. The mining industry of British Columbia is expanding by leaps and bounds, and 1925 promises lo be a banner year. Mining is receiving more and more attention in the daily press of Vancouver. The Vancouver Daily Sun is devoting considerable space to mining news, and it is actively supporting the $30,000 drive now being carried on by the B. C. Chamber of Mines. The people of the province are realizing the importance of the mining industry, and every mining town throughout the province are redoubling their efforts to induce capital to develop mining properties. Although Alice Arm possesses one of the best ore bearing mineral belts in the province, it still refuses to advertise the fact, as it ought to be advertised. It is often a cause of wonderment why mining properties all over the province are being bonded wholesale, while Alice Arm has to be content with three properties bonded last year, and with no guarantee that any will be bonded this year. The fault is not hard to find, for il is our own. We can not blame mining companies, when they do not know what we have. If we wish to sell our goods, we must place the particulars of the property we wish to sell before the buying public. The B. C. Chamber of Mines was formed for this purpose, and any information regarding mining properties should be sent to them. Mining engineers from all over the world will visit the Chamber of Mines during the coming summer, in order to obtain information of certain districts. If they cannot secure any information of Alice Arm, they naturally scratch us off their list of camps to be visited. The Western Canada Mining News, in a recent issue, says of the Chamber of Mines: "The H. C, Chamber of Mines has done much for the prospector and mine owner. It keeps on record a register of properties, with as full particulars as may be given, so that inquirers may be given information. With the advent of many people during the coming summer, it is confidently expected that much good work will be done. Displays of mineral specimens, made at Sacramento and Spokane during the latter part of 11124, interested a large number of mining men who attended the conventions of those places, with the result that quite a number signified their intention of coming to Vancouver this year. With a larger organization, the B. C. Chamber of .Mines will be able to Copper Consumption Exceeds Output Electrical development and the universal adaptation of the radio accounts for the fact that the world's consumption of copper is exceeding the world's output by from 15,000,000 to 20,000,000 pounds monthly at the present time, according to recent estimates by the American bureau of metal statistics. Countries furnishing 95 per cent, of the world's output of copper in 11122, and 1)0 per cent, in 1923, produced 120,801 short tons of copper in November compared With 128,551 short tons in October, 116,905 in September and 119,346 in August. This makes the world's output of copper in the lirst eleven months of 1924, 1,331, 885 tons or an average of 121,080 a month, compared with 1,356,- 196 tons for the full year of 1923, or a monthly average of 113,016 tons. Of the eleven months' total for 1924 Canada produced 34,134 tons.

With this start, it is hoped that shortly the Chamber of Mines will he in a building of their own, where prospectors may meet, where mining engineers may he centred, where capital will be able to learn all about any property in which they may be interested. With mi organization like that, mineral production will greatly increase, aud cities throughout the province will benefit by the greater activity." Every individual owning mining properties should list his property with the Chamber of Mines. A local organization should also be formed, and.it should be the duty of its secretary to supply information to the Chamber of Mines whenever necessary, and also handle any other form of publicity work, that may be deemed necessary. We can ride on the top of the coming wave of prosperity with the rest of the province if we wish. The town of Alice Arm is quite capable, in its present size, of handling all business accruing from a payroll of around 200 miners. If we can't get a payroll of 200 miners within the next two years, we are going to grow smaller, and if we start on the down grade, we may not stop until we hit bottom. r We Carry Everything A full line of Hardware always in Stock.

GILLESPIE Alice Arm Children To Be Vaccinated Against Smallpox The trustees of the Alice Arm School have been advised by the Provincial Board of Health to make arrangements for the vaccination against smallpox of all children attending school. It is expected that this will be done sometime within the next two weeks. Following are extracts from the letter received from the Provincial Board of Health. 'British Columbia is threatened with an epidemic of Smallpox. In 1922 there were 04 cases reported in tlie Province; in 1923 there were 232; in .1924 there were 660; in 1925 to date, over 325, which if continued at the same rate for the balance of the year will mean from 1200 to 1500 cases, and the above are only those cases which have been reported." The United States has placed an embargo on everyone going into the United States from Vancouver where the greatest number of cases are, and nobody can leave there without being vaccinated. Such a condition of affairs will mean an enormous economic loss to the Province owing to interruption of transportation and disruption of tourist traffic during the coming snmuier." We are enclosing you a copy of the Smallpox Regulations and would call your attention to Sections 25, 26. 27. 28 and 29, and would advise that you see that all children are vaccinated, unless the parents are conscientious objectors to vaccination being done, as provided in Section 10 of the Health Act, Chapter 102. R. S. 1924." Should such objection be raised, 1 hen the parent will have to sign an affidavit sworn to before a Notary Public or Justice of the Peace. But if a child of a conscientious objector has been exposed to Smallpox, while we do not force vaccination, the child must be excluded from school for 14 days. If they have been infected, then Smallpox will show in that time.'' Shower Given to Anyox Bride A surprise shower was held at the home of Mrs. F. Teabo, on Tuesday evening, in honor of her daughter, Lucy, who was recently married to Mr. Stanley Pamplin. Over forty ladies were present, and the bride was the recipient of :t large number of handsome and useful presents. The house was artistically decorated and an evening of merriment and mirth followed the presentations. Supper was served, and the jolly party departed forborne around the hour of midnight. The Anyox band was in attendance, which added greatly to the evening's enjoyment. Of the total area of Canada, 950,(100 square miles (approximately one-quarter of the whole) is forest land. Less than half of this carries timber of merchantable size Hi inches in diameter) at the present time, and only about one- quarter carries saw material (10 inches in diameter,) Mrs. Smythe: "Here is an interesting news item. A girl in Rupert ran 56 hours without stopping." Mr. Sinythe: "Did the man get away." FIRST CLASS ROOMS For Rent, by Day, Week or Month. Reasonable Rates.
