Development on Matilda Proving Large Ore Bodies Development work now proceeding on the Matilda property near the Kitsault Glacier, is proving that this property possesses immense possibilities, and from all indications will eventually prove that in the Matilda Alice Arm has one of its richest mines. The property is being developed by the Kitsault River Mining & Development Co., Ltd. The majority of work done so far this year has been surface stripping and open cuts on the famous Matilda ore body. This ore body has now been traced for a distance of over 1000 feet, and the open cuts have proved that the ore is of a high quality. Samples of this ore were recently brought down, and oomprises almost solid galena with yellow oopper. Previous assays have shown that this galena runs high in silver and the oopper also carries high gold values. The Matilda vein has a north-west and -south-easterly strike, dipping into the hill towards the west at an angle of from 45 to 50 degrees. Tho tunnel commenced by theown- ers some time ago is being extended to the foot wall of the ore vein, in order to ascertain the ore values on the foot wall and also procure the definite angle of the dip. Another tunnel fifty feet lower down the hill will be driven. This tunnel will give a much greater depth on the ore body, and eventually prove up a large tonnage of ore. Open outs are also being driven on an ore vein paralleling the Matilda vein, with excellent results. This vein has been traced on the surfaoe for over 500 feet, and further development work will undoubtedly prove it to be of muoh larger extent. The property possesses another big fissure vein, which carries high gold values, and whioh will also be developed at a later date. Oscar Flint is iu oharge of development work. He is a praotioal mining man well known in the north, and under his supervision we are confident that with sufficient funds available, the Matilda will eventually develop into a big tonnage producer.

Crowds Attend Circus Performance at Anyox Seats Collapse During Evening Show Buller's circus, whose headquarters are at Viotoria, paid a visit to Anyox at the beginning of the week, and on Monday, two performances were given.

Continued on page 4 Alice Arm Chamber of Mines Branch Hold Meeting The monthly meeting of the Alice Arm branch of the B. C. Chamber of Mines was held at the Pioneer Hotel on Monday evening. The meeting was well attended, over thirty being present, and a keen interest was taken in the proceedings. The chair was taken by W. B. Bower. Secretary A. D. Yorke read the minutes of the preceding meeting whioh were adopted. . It was deoided to take steps for the forwarding of an ore exhibit to the Prince Rupert exhibition, and to have this ore display located in a permanent place iu Prinoe Rupert after the exhibition, prefer- rably on the C. N. R. wharf, where an ore exhibit is already looated. A. E. Haggen, mining writer for the Daily Province, who was present at the meeting was asked by the chairman to say a few words on the mining situation of the province. Mr. Haggen spoke for about forty minutes, and gave the history and production of several big mines of the provinoe, including the Hidden Creek mine of Anyox, and the big Sullivan mine at Kimberly. He was amaz ed at the large attendance at the meeting, and stated that he had never seen as much interest taken in mining as at Alice Arm. He voiced his disappointment at being unable to examine the two proper ties he especially came to see. He was of the opinion that mining was the backbone of provincial prosperity, and while lumbering, fishing, etc. helped considerably, mining would beourchief industry Elks Pile Up Big Score Against The Mine Baseballers The Elks were victorious over the Miners, in the third game of the Post-season series for the Baseball Cup, by an eleven to two score. Cecil Ferguson was in fine form on the mound for the winners, allowing but four hits, three of whioh came in the first inning, accounting for the loser's two mils. Jimmy Ferguson was touohed for twelve bingles, but the score would not have been so bad had he been accorded any kind of support Ray Ingram supplied the field ing feature when he made a nice running catch off Allen's Texas leaguer in the fourth inning. Ingram was also the star with the stick, getting three hits out of as many trips to the plate.

Ye Ancient Game Won By Coke Plant The Club House and Coke Plant having gained no satisfaction of supremacy upon the baseball field, have diverged to a different method of endeavour, namely, the ancient game of horse shoes. A tournament was staged at the Coke Plant ou Wednesday evening, when the Coke Makers completely annihilated the men from "Our Boarding House," by taking five out of the six contests. The scores were as follows: Sheen and Wilson, 21; Davis and Hutchings 18. Mclntosli and Gosetto, 21; Eaton and Salter, 11. Harman and Eakin, 12; Salter and Gordon 21. Wilson and Jones, 21; Hutchings and Davis 10. Sheen and Gosetto, 21; Eaton and Gordon 8. Mcintosh and Harmon, 21; Salter and Gordon 3.

They also wish to take this opportunity to throw out a challenge to meet any organization iiv any of the following games: horse shoes, pool, billiards, tennis, ping-pong, croquet, checkers, chess or marbles. Overland Trip Made From Alice Arm to Stewart and Return To those who delight in hiking and exploring new country, a trip from Alice Arm to Stewart might meet with their approval, that this can be done in a minimum space of time has been proven by J. Nick, who returned from a round trip recently. He went by way of tlie Kitsault Glacier and came into Stewart via the Bitter Creek Glacier, On his return he changed his route and left Stewart by way of the Marmot river. He was away two weeks. The trip to Stewart consumed four days, and three were taken for the return trip, and a week was spent at Stewart. J. Nick is an expert woodsman, trapper and prospector, and thought very lightly of the trip, which to some would be of considerable magnitude. E. A. Haggen Pays Visit to District E. A. Haggen, mining engineer and writer for the Daily Province arrived in town on Monday, with the idea of looking over our most promising mining properties. He left on Tuesday for Anyox, where he made an examination of the big plant and left on Friday for Vancouver. Messrs. J. Barclay, Stewart McLachlan and Ted Swanson are spending holidays at Alice Arm.

Elks on August 15th. was up to its usual high standard of previous years. This big event for the children of Anyox had to be postponed twice owing to unfavorable weather, and the 15th. was the final clay decided to hold the celebration. The Flag Day is held in commemoration of the entry of the British Empire into the world war which was on August 4th. 1914, and the event is celebrated by all Elk lodges thoughout Canada. The celebration commenced at 2 p.m. when the children formed a procession at the Elks' Home, and paraded to the Ball Grounds, headed by the Elk's clown jazz band composed of Messrs .Steele,Craggs, Wilson, Buntain, Jones. Cameron and Happle. Before starting, each child was given a squaker, balloon, Hag, tickler, cane and hat, and the whole parade "composed a gay scene. Arriving at the grounds the Boy Scouts raised the Union Jack, and an appropriate address was given by Rev. C. D. Clarke, in which he traced the history of the grand old ensign, and with specially painted cards, gave a vivid illustration of how the word "Union" came to be included in the name of the flag. Sports were then held, and twenty-eight events were carried to a successful conclusion. Refreshments in abundance were on hand throughout the afternoon, comprising ice cream, lemonade, peanuts, etc., and evening brought to a conclusion, one of the happiest days in the lives of the juvenile population of the town, and iii the eyes of all the kiddies, the "Brother Bills" of Anyox are brothers not only in name, but in deeds. The success of the day's entertainment was due to a large extent to the following, who had charge of the proceeedings: Messrs. C. Parmiter, C. Gray, C. McLachlan, H. Kirk, B. Sheen, F. Kelley, J.

VICTORIA, August 24-The Legislature has been called to meet on Monday, October, 26th. Members were asked for an opinion by the Premier regarding the date, whether the session should be held, as for the past four years, in the fall or, as was formerly the practice, in the spring. The weight of opinion was for the continuance of recent practice. There is not much government legislation in prospect at the present time" and it is expected that what there is to be will be ready early in the session. A bill dealing with the water situation around Vancouver is likely to be one of the chief measures before the House, and this will in all probability be in the direction of appointing a single board to manage water affairs for Vancouver and the surrounding municipalities. Increase of Forest Fires This Year The total number of forest fires which have been reported to tlie Forest Branch up to August 15 is 1913, as compared with 1621 up to the same date last year, and only 954 to that date in 1923. It was hoped that the rain that fell would have some influence in reducing the fires, but in spite of that there were 211 outbreaks reported last week. On the coast, however, the situation has eased considerably. Sixty-two fires were caused by one electric storm, and one of the worst of the coast fires, whioh destroyed twenty homes of settlers, was due to the snapping of a steel cable and the ignition of a dead tree ' by friction. The present hazardous conditions are common to the entire Pacific northwest, and in the states adjoining British Columbia great loss is being experienced. The cost of forest patrols in this Provinoe is given by the Minister of Mines as being one-half cent per acre.
