LaRose Ore Carry Gold Values at Depth Full Description of Property Given and Smelter Returns from Previous Shipments That Alice Arm silver ores contain high values iii gold has been conclusively proven at the LaRose mine. Samples of silver ores taken from the raise at the mine where the ore was recently encountered, were sent out for assaying to ascertain if the ore carried gold. This Rich Shoot of Ore Now Being Mined at Esperanza A nice shoot of high grade ore was encountered a few days ago at the Esperanza by V. Stella, T. Mack and associates. The vein is about 14 inches wide and is known to exist for a distance of 100 feet. The ore is high grade and is one of the best finds ever made at the mine. Scheelite tungsten ore is being found in considerable quantities, and some fine samples of this rare metal was brought down a few days ago. week assay returns were received showing that the ore oarried $22.00 in gold per ton, in addition to the high silver values known to exist. This sensational result considerably improves the value of the ore and is of considerable importance to the camp as it proves that the silver ores of Alice Arm are all liable to carry gold values with depth. Previous assays taken for gold from the bottom of the shaft only gave 40 cents per ton. The silver ore at the mine is also i increasing in richness. Recent samples brought down are composed of solid ore, comprising massive brittle silver, and so.me grey copper. It is similar to the ore found at the bottom of the shaft, which has created such a sensation. Forty-two tons of this ore was shipped a few years ago. The smelter returns of the first shipment was $355.00 per ton, and the ; second $280.00. The raise is being extended to the surface, and when it is comple> ted, stoping of the ore on both sides I will be carried out. Mr. Miles Donald who is in [charge of all operations at the mine •states that owing to the slides etc, blocking the Dolly Varden railway it will not be possible to ship ore until some time next summer. If ■the railway could be used, shipments of ore would be made nest month. ■ As soofi as the railway is repaired, lumber for the construction ;)f an ore shed, cook house, and an addition to the buukhouse will be taken up. The ore now being •nined is being stored in the drift, 'is no suitable place is available [iiitside. To date 596 feet of underground I;»'ork has been done. The "first tvork consisted of 420 feet of crosscut tunnel. The ore ledge was ;hen drifted- on for a distance of 1.40 feet. The drift followed what [vas probably an old underground I'ater course, as the ore was badly pached. A raise was then started A feet from the crosscut tunnel, nd the solid ore was' quickly en- puntered. The raise is now up 6 feet. The property is owned by the [(•aRose Mining Co. and they have Efficient funds on hand to carry on be work. It is located two miles jom the Dolly Varden railway and ; only eight miles from Alice Arm. tramline of only li miles would Mine Club Card Party and Dance Enjoyed On Thursday evening the 'Mine Club held one of their enjoyable card parties and dance, and at which there was a very fair attendance. The prize winners of the evening were as follows: Bridge, ladies, 1st. prize, Mrs. F. E. Patton, consolation prize, Miss L. Anderson. Men, 1st. prize, Mr. F. E. Patton, consolation, Mr. S. D. Murray.

The dancing that followed was thoroughly enjoyed by all those present. The Melodians were in attendance and their excellent music added greatly to the evening's enjoyment. Tennis Players Take Advantage of Spring Weather The beautiful summer weather prevailing during the past week, was taken full advantage of by the members of the Alice Arm Tennis Club who played-several games in ideal weather. The soft southern breezes, reminiscent of May, and the absence of snow on the ground, is being enjoyed to the limit. Sleighs snow shovels and skates are taking a long rest this season. But the owners of the shining blades still hope that a few days of their favorite sport may yet be enjoyed. i +'»♦*'♦•»♦'»■ ♦'•'♦'•'♦'•-♦'*'♦'»♦'*■ > ■■■4-» t I •t-4***- ANYOX NOTES j Well Known Anyox Couple Are Married in South A very quiet wedding was solemnized in Vancouver, on Monday February 8th. at the home of the officiating Clergyman, Bev.

In addition to the ore shoot now being developed, four more ore ledges are known to exist. One of these being only 150 feet up the hill from the present workings, and the second is at a similar distance from the first one. The biggest ore ledge is situated another 600 feet higher up, and at another 1000 feet a fourth is located. All these ore bodies are known to carry values, Each one parallels the other, running in a north and south direction. Sinoe operations were commenced last summer, all work has been executed with efficiency and economically. Overhead expenses have been reduced to a minimum. The company are putting the money into the ground, and luxurious offices and high salaried officers —the downfall ofnumerons mining companies—find no favor with the company's Directors. Mr. Miles Donald, a pioneer of tlie camp, full of practical experience, is in charge and there no doubt that under his supervision the shareholders will obtain full value for their money, and perhaps reap a substantial profit from their investment.

E. MOSS, Editor and Publisher. The recent visit to Anyox of Archbishop DePencier. head of the Anglican Church in British Columbia, was greatly appreciated by the people of Anyox and especially those who are members of the Anglican Church. Visits of those at the head of affairs whether religious, political, fraternal, etc. are always conducive of good results. It is encouraging to see that the Church is becoming aware of the benefits obtainable by visits from those holding high office. The Church still has a strong hold on the masses, and if it is to retain it, it must promote interest, and this can be best acquired by frequent visits to the small communities of its chief dignitaries. Criticism is part of the penalty paid by those holding high political office, and lucky indeed is he who is not continually deluged with criticism, often from unexpected quarters. Nearly all of our cabinet ministers at Victoria have been overwhelmed with criticism, except the Hon. Wm. Sloan; minister of mines. Mr. Sloan, of course, has not emerged scot-free during his term of office, but the small amount of criticism he has received has not impaired in the least his popularity. Our present minister of mines is a worker, and it is largely through his unceasing efforts that the mining industry of the province is in such a healthy state. He believes in giving publicity throughout the world to our vast mineral wealth. He also understands the hardships the pioneer prospector has to contend with, and is ready to listen to any legitimate request from a mining district. The Hon Wm. Sloan is without question the right man in the right place. During his term of office the mining industry has shown steady yearly progress, and the future of the industry under his guidance, appears to be even more bright than the past few years. Record Consumption of Copper According to a compilation made in one well-informed source, the United States consumption of copper in 1925 amounted to 1,662,- 342,000 lb„ a record for all time, though closely approached by the 1918 consumption of 1,661,670,000 lb. World's production is estimated by the American Bureau of Metal Statistics as 1,588.100 short tons, in 1925. Lots of English Capital for Mining Investments In B. C. Money is abundant in England for the development of Canadian mining enterprises, if proper presentation of the holdings is made to the capital by interested people in the province. Such was the message told the British Columbia Chamber of Mines at its luncheon in the Elysium Hotel recently by Stanley Hym- ans, F. R. G. S., who has been here for the past two weeks representing a group of Old Country capitalists. His principals, he declared had between 200,000 pounds and 300, 000 pounds, available for investment in lead, oopper, silver or zinc development. He was in the field for prospects, he declared, and may or may hot act. Mr. Hymans said keen interest was being taken in the old Country in British Columbia mining devek opment, largely by those who had been connected with the rubber boom. The message Mr. Hymas conveyed was that British Columbia must sell their ideas and mines to London by personal representation. It would be some years, he felt, before London would come to British Columbia. The salesman's essentials, he declared, were proper surveys and systematic progress reports. These two factors would quickly interest, he felt. Mayor L. D. Taylor spoke briefly complimenting the Chamber of Mines for the interest it had taken and the results obtained in forwarding the province's mining interests. Canadian Trade Increasing Canada's total trade in 1925 was $295,000,000 more than in , 1924, due chiefly to increases in wheat, meats and cheese, yet most people are having as hard a time as ever in getting sufficient bread, meat and fats. The total savings deposits in the Canadian chartered banks increased twenty-one million dollars, during the inonth of November. If this were let loose for the development of onr natural resources, what a knock unemployment would get.

Obtains Appeal Court Decision The Supreme Court of Canada dismissed with costs the appeal of the Premier Gold Mining Company against the Coastwise Steamship Company. The question involved oonoerned the liability of tho steamship company for a loss of a oargo of ore valued at $17,600. In 1922 a scowload of ore, owned by the Premier Company, capsized while being towed from Stewart to Anyox. The owners recovered the loss from the insuring company and the latter in the name of the Premier Company, sued the owners of the scow to be reimbursed on the ground that the vessel was uri- seaworthy. Mr. Justice Gregory dismissed the action, and an appeal to the Court of Appeal of British Columbia failed. Gladys Gale Out on Bail Gladys Gale, awaiting trial at Okalla on a charge of murdering James Donald at Stewart on January 1, has been released on $10,000 bail. No application for bail has yet been made by Ruby Dolan, who was jointly charged with the murder along with Gladys Gale.

Don't forget the time, 8.30. And Don't forget to come. It is now certain that the camp will enjoy a most prosperous summer. Plans for the development of several mining properties are being made. Some of these plans have been made public and some have not. Perhaps those that have not, will be bigger than those that have. A week's work now would be appreciated more than a month's work in the summer by those who are unemployed. Why not repair the Dolly Varden railway now. It can then be used, as it is, no one can use it. The big spring influx has not commenced. At least, that was "the opinion of the Herald reporter after a canvass of our leading hotels this week. At the time of going to press the winter winds are beginning to blow, and the hopes of the local hockey players are beginning to rise. Although we have been enjoying spring weather, it may yet turn real cold. If it does your remedy is to See Al Falconer for Wood, Coal and Lumber.
