THE DIAMOND DRILL.
The diamond drill which bus been
held ul the Wanela customs house,has
arrived safely at Qieenivund und will
he used at once nn the Snowshoe. The
drill is lbe Hist in Jhe used in
B iiindaiy creek, und lhe ellterpiise uf
the Montreal and British Coluuililn
Planum ion und Prospecting company
is lube highly commended. It. issufe
to predict that the arrival of ihe drill
in the cainp marks a new epoch, the
beginning of llle good times wliieli we
all eoHliileiilly expect to see in Biiun.l-
ury before u-iii.y months puss. It is
well known tliat, we have huge ledges
of ore. but it is yet tuheshownwhether
or not these ledges continue down for
any distance, or whether I he character
nf Ihe rock Improves wilh depth. At
Rossland, where the ores heal' a striking resemblance lo Ihose found here,
bnth these points have been proved io
ii most satisfactory manner, If there-
fore one can safely deduce lads fiiiiii
analogous circumstances, there is litlle
to feni' frooi whut the diamond drill
may show.

Mr. Graham, the owner of the Texas
claim on Ingriiu mountain, arrived
from Spokane last week and isslopping
at thu Boundary hotel. He inleuds
doing considerable development work
on his claims this summer.
Development work is to be done
on tlie Magnet, a claim to lhe norlh of
Ihe Roderick Dim in Long Luke cainp,
owned l.y Joe Franks aud S. Bonner-
man. It is imdcrslnud that an option
has been given on lhe property.
P. Helslaiib and S, Benneriuan are
doing assessment work on a cluim up
the West Fork of Kettle river. The
ore in lhat locality resembles closely
that found in Greenwood. It however
carries less gold and more silver.
The claim ou Kruger mountain located by Dick Boeing and Jim Anderson has now a capital showing of ore,
containing tellurium aud free gold in
large quantities. The claim has the
advantage of being on a precipitous
side hill, development is therefore less
difficult.

Another case of claim jumping is reported from Kruger mountain. A
certain claim, upon which lhe showing was above the ordinary, being
jumped upon the technical grounds
that, the discovery post was not exactly upon tlle spot, where mineral was
found in place, but suine yards away.
This seems lo he very trivial grounds
upon which to disprove another man's

judge would give a decision unfavorable to the original locator.
If persons sending in legal notices
