As noted recently the fisUnip mill on the Granite and Banner claims in (.'amp McKinney, was started during thcilatterpart, of the month just closed, and us a result of a nine days run it is said by parties arriving from Camp McKinney, that a brick of gold of the value of jji'KKJ was sent to the head office of the Granite and Banner Gold .Mining Company. Such a result i.s certainly encouraging, as it shows that the ore milled well, and that witb plenty of ore, good fat dividends will be the portion of those holding stock iu this company, r*. Molly Gibson and Juno. Mr. F. B. Brazil, of Nelson, in the Kootenay, has just returned from a prospecting trip in the Cedar Creek district, and as a result of a couple of months bard work he reports his ability to locate two promising looking properties, the Mollv Gibson and the Juno. UjHin each of these claims nre fair size ledges, nnd although little work has been done yet, ou the Molly Gibson utwo-foot vein.curryingqiiarU, arsenical iron and a little copper has been broken into. .The ledge out crops for a considerable dislulice us it runs nearly the whole length of the claim, and then enters the ground of thu British Pride un adjoining claim. The Molly Gibson also adjoins the Huth a Hne property belonging to Messrs. Sullivan und Wurdell, who at present are wot king ou their holding. Brazil is enthusiastic in his praise uf the whole of the country lying adjacent to the Kettle river to the west and north of Midway, aud predicts that the near future will see some good camps established in different localities. xa-a The Sailor Consolidated. Hrst general meeting of the Th. Silvery Slocan. .Many have heard of the richness of the silver ores of the Slocan country, but few have an idea of how rich these ores are. By a careful compulation it was recently phown that the average assay value of several thousand tons of ore from different mines in the Slocan, which ore won treated at thu several smelting plants in and out of Canada, ran about I'Mi ounces of silver and 46 per cent, lead to the ton, .vbicli j would represent, taking the price of J the metals at tbeir present values, some $118 to the ton, Truly this is a wonderful showing, and one which any fas.

ARMSTF,, - The Eight-hour Question. The Victoria Colonist bikes a sensible view of the eighl hour question when it says :—The Columbian says the eight-hour law is correct in principle. This is a debatable proposition. In nine cases out of len eight hours ure ns much us nnv man ought to be iisked to work underground, and we might go further and suy thai, a universal eight - hour day lor working men would m the very great majority of cases Ih; beuellcinl. The open question is If this matter ought not to he left to employers uud employed tosettlo between them, subject to government supervision as to sanitary and other condi* •aXMIMi shares of treasury st<a*k.

Correspondence ofa personal mil um will not bu published. MONDAY. JULY 10,1891). We are able this week to iniike the an'liiiuiiwinent that This Auvanck has found a new proprietor, Mr. W, H. Norris having disposed of his entire inlerest in the publication to Mr. .lolm Withell, of Montreal. Although Mr. Non is has disposed of the publication, he will remain iu charge of thi same for a shoii lime, therefore in the near future when he severs his eon nection with the paper, the'subject will again be referred to. No Exhibit Yet. Although many appeals hnve been made through the press, no action has as yet been taken locally, or by the authorities having the matter in hand, to collect a representative exhibit of the minerals of Boundary Creek, for the Paris exhibition. In different parts of the province the work of collecting specimens is being pushed forward, therefore considering the great • importance or this section from a mining point of view, itseeinsstrange that some effort is not being made to gather together a suitable collection of specimens, From the Boundary Creek sec- tiop, no ore isnt present being shipped, ,, this is owing to the want of transport* ation facilities (which will soon be supplied) and yet tbe district stands or will soon stand, pre-eminently (it the' head of nil the miningseci ions ofBritish Columbia. Such being the case no exhibit, frnm Ihe province should go to ... .Paris without having included in il n liberal sprinkling of specimens of the copper-gold ores of Boundary Creek, Without these the exhiliit would noli Qllly he non-repreKfiitalive of the prov ,-■. inee, it, would.not bo representarive of the Dominion, for in no part of Ciinadn .areto.be found ores carrying such u high .percentage of cupper combined with the high gold values met with hern. „,,,,• Under Ihese circumstances it is to lie hoped those interested ..wlll.ni j draw the attention of the nut hunt ie.* to lhe iiijil ter, sn I but no more lime lie lost before the work of collecting n suitable exhibit is tnketi in hand, ham and Murphy have an interest in seeing the Waterloo a dividend payer in the nenr future, lt is estimated that the ore taken from the mine as development progresses will be stlfflcient to keep thc mill running, und if suoh is the case then will the Waterloo soon become a very valuable properly, for it would allow of the blocking out of a large quantity of ore. e-ts White -Palmtsrston.

It, i.s claimed that at the 27*> foot level, the ilewfel mine in Long Luke oamp, has eight feet of solid ore, whieh will run $80 tn the ton, und the pay sehnte has heen proven to extend to a ; .considerable length. The property is 1 beiii'g opened by a second shaft, which \Vill deterinin'e just how extensive the pay suhute is. Tlie Jewel is fast becoming one of the baniVer mines of the Boundary (.'reek district. The tlrovvn Puiui,,James Creek.owned hy Me>sn', Douglas .and Atwood of Midway, is looking well now, there being 10 feet of solid iye showing in ihe ci'ossi'ill from 'he shaft ul the 40 foot level. The shnfl.' wa.*, sunk aliout the centre of the (K) fool, ledge, nnd the crosscut is heing run west towards the hanging wall. The ore is galena and iron in a limegiingiie, with values in both gold and silver. The owners have ull along maintained that the Crown Point ivteild prove a valuable properly, and recent developments nre proving their confidence to have heen fuiiy warranted. The small hoist which was used for some, time at the Cariboo mine at Camp MoKinmy, is being moved to . .the Maple Leaf claim, one of Ibn Cari- ll,'o.company's group of claims, and us si|o|i as it is sel up, the development, ol ll,iis elaini will be proceed with. The ■ Maple Leaf lies lo the west of the Alice and Emma, claims which arealsoowned by the. company, and to the east of the . Kureka clnim, which is owned liy a New York company, organi/ed several ' years ago. The Maple Leaf originally belonged to Mr. James Lyneh.nf Camp McKinney, who parted with it to the company some two years ago. The ore on. the claim is very similar to tlmt found in the Cariboo, and no doubt the development of the property will be attended with good results. Apart from the installation of a Hue hoisting plant, the Waterloo company, ilfCauip McKinney, have decided to Charged with Murder. A iiiuii who has for suii.e lime mude his home ou the Colville reservation, and who has been kuoivtl locally us one arm Frank, and whose name is written in the ubarge as Frank Draper alias D.ivine, abas Heed, and who was recently arrested at Kepuhlic for horse stealing, is imw undergoing trial at Repulilic ou a charge of having ahout l wo years ago murdered a half breed near Midway, named Johnny Hull', The chief witness against him is said iu lie mi Indian who says he witnessed the murder, Imt was afraid until Dra per was arrested for horse stealing to disclose ihat he knew anything about how ii nil' came to his death, for fear that Draper hearing that he knew ol n would harm him before he could be arrested. It will be reinemtiered that when iintl' met bis <lfiiiI, it wus supposed i hut he got drowned while endeavoring to ford the Kettle river on » horse, Imt it will also be remembered that there was some talk of Ihere being marks nnthe hody when taken from the Ketlle river that suggested that be had met with foul play before reaching the water.

Keightley. of Midway, met with a painful experience about a week ago, and ha.s much cause to he thankful that be is now alive. He wus out prospecting on the dill's around Lost Creek canyon, a few miles south of Chesaw. on the Colville reservation, when as he wus passing around a ledge of rock, a boulder came rolling down from the dill above, whioh striking him, knocked hiuioff the ledgeofroek, giving him a fell of 60 or 60 feet. Thai the, fall did nol cost him his life, can only be explained by the circumstances that he fell into a thick clump of hushes which were growing ut the top ofa sleep rock slide, and thut us soon us his body came in contact with the curth or rather line rock it, gave way and precipitated him some 75 or 100 feet further down the hill, where among heavy boulders bis progress was arrested. Fortunately for him loo he had n partner with him who witnessed .. the fall, and who proceeded to him as'»' quickly as possihle, thereby offering assistance which was much needed in his bruised and bleeding state. With other assistance Jir. Keightley was moved to Chesaw and thence to Midway, where under the care of Dr.Jakes he is doing Well. The accident offers a miraculous escape from death, The Cellar.!
