The big ledge on I lie Reservation property, whirh includes the Lone Star snd Washington, nml situate across tlie international boundary line from Central cump, has heen encountered in Ihe main tunnel. The company hus la-en driving their tunnel for the main vtiu, and are now in over 400 feel. The footwall has been encountered and the lunging wall is still ahead. Several days ngn R. B. Thomas, the engineer of the mini', stated lhat he had hi en examining Ihe Lone Star and Washington and lhat 400 feet in the tunnel cut into ledge matter curies ponding to the fnotwall side nf ihe formation which had been gone thiough in sinking the winze. The nre comes in hunches and is not yet developed enough In be in a body. The dip correspond* with the sanie as In Ihe workings in No. 2 tunnel. The ernsscut will lie driven straight ihnuigh the ledge to the hanging nail. The composition of Ihe fnotwall and the formal inn con esponds with that of N". 2 iiiiiuel. The ore is jdenlinil ns that in the other tunnel and the men are now 25 feet in ledge matter which is well mineralised. A later report from the superintendent nf the mine states that the men have drifted 10 feet, further in the ledge and that lhe ore is improving rapidly. There is more mineral found anil ihe big ledge is at hand, Tlie Reservation Mining & Smell ing compuny has soent a gieat deal uf money in developing their property, and now, that the big ledge has been reached iu the lower workings, Ihey (iml ihey have a mine.

Ottawa, Aug. 6.--Acting on nig- ge*tinti.s received from Vancouver and the west, the government has derided to esiahlish the assay nflloo recently opened in Vancouver as a purchasing agency also. Details have now leen excluded, and tht. system is mud"as perfect as possible. It is to he arranged immediately lhat gold will be paid for by lhe assay office itself, either in ordinary currency, or else by issuing cheques nu a local bank for ih- full value of the gold with one per cent uddid as the ieb:tte allowed on nil gold upon which Ihe royally has been paid in the imnh. Regntding this matter the Vancouver Province of n rereul date says : Mr. McCalfry, manager of lhe assay office, was tills aft el-noon asked regarding the instructions said lo have been issued in the despatch frnm the Ottawa correspondent of the Province. He said that the news was correct, that he had received a wire from Hon. Mr. Sifton, minister of the interior, stating that complete instructions would be issued at once. Mr. James A. Smiut. the deputy minister of Ihe interior, who was here lasl week, was distinctly in favor of sueh an al'iangemvut to buy I lie gold out and out from the miners, ami he pinhalily made representations to that elfeci at Ottawa. Business men who were shown the announcement to-day expressed them selves as eminently satisfied wilh the action of the government. The establishment of a purchasing agency heie will give Vancouver an addilinnal advantage over Seattle, lt will do away wiih a bank charge of three quarters nf one per cent, whirh lias been charged liy the banks for handling lhe business of cashing what arc known as us-ay office certificates. In Vancouver, men In illging gold into the olllce will Is- paid in cash or Ms direct equivalent. Vnucouv** will have the advantage of allowing the miner io retain this amount uf dhu mint, and also ihe one percent rebate, making a tolal sal ing to the miner of nearly two per cent ol his money. Arrangements have been made wiih ihe Canadian Batik nf Commerce to cash checks issiu d I y Manager McCaf- fry of tlie Dominion assay olllce* at Vancouver. Under ihis arrangement, a niinci will take hi., gold lo Ihe Dominion B8«ay ofHreut Vancouver, accompanied hy aceitillcale from the gold cniuuiis- sinner lha! the royalty thereon has heen paid. While tlie gold is being assayed he will Ih- given a receipt. Alter it has heen assayed lit) lumens the receipt and will receive therefor a check which will give the net cash amount to which he iseniilled. This will he cashed in preseirailon lo the Canadian Bank of Commerce. Nn deduction will be nuule from this cheek by the hank as all chaises from the ginss value of the hacwfll he do dueled hy the assay office hef. re issuing. In addition to the miner receiving Ihe face value of the cheek given hy the Dominion goveiiimcni assay and purchasing office he will also receive a refund of one p. r rent of the toyalty paid on the -fold. MISTAKE IN BOUNDARY LINE. Between Cascade and Nelson.Wash,, Old Line is aoo feet too far North. Government surveyors at work hetween Nelson, Wash,, and Cascade, B C.huve discovered the International hoiindary line lies 200 feet north of the location which the general public has accepted as true, ln order to make the boundary line clear the surveyors will remain In the Held at that point fnr some time, and will continue on th. entire work until the middle of November. A peculiar situation has heen presented hetween the two lowns. It. appears «hen the original boundary was marked the government surveyors cleared the trail and set their monument". A zigzag line was Ihe result. After a little investigation it was disco veied ihe boundary line had heen located 200 feet south of the real line. Instead nf going back over the line and clearing a new trail the original locators measured ihe distance from the firs; trail and set up new monuments 200 feet north of the trail. These monuments were hidden among the underbrush and timber so that Uie traveller would not noi ice them. The surveyors did not believe it necessary to clear a new trail along the real boundary and left their woik. People going into the country near the loiindary in eastern Washington found ihe (rail and a numher of monuments set at proper distances. They decided thut the stakes along Ihe trail marked the real line, and have ever since regarded it as the boundary. The present surveying party found the mistake had heen made, ahd upon investigation teamed Ihe history. A numher of complications have arisen us a result of lhe hidden boundary Hue, Raihoad surveyors have endeavored to locate the boundary in their own work, and have been confused hy the trail. It wus their request for a closer investigation lhat wus responsible for the discovery of Ihe mistake It is staled that a number of important mines are located in the neighborhood of the line, though none of the lergei* companies which are working their properties are in the territory lietween the lines. Some undeveloped propi-rity is inside the United Slates, whereas the owners believed it to lie in Canada. The boundary party is now working near While's camp, not far from Nel- The Stemwinder. James Russell, president and managing director of the Fairview corporal ion, limited, has been successful In the reorganization of Ihe concern hereafter to he known as the New Fairview Corporation, limited. Speaking of the progress being made in the reorganization of the concern, Mr. Russel says: "We propose as rapidly as possihle to dismantle the Tin Horn mill and remove the same io the site now being excavated near Ihe hcudworktugs of lhe Stemwinder mine, This mill is of 16 stamp capacity, having eight batteries of Iwo stamps. The company has ulso purchased Ihe Joe Dandy mill of 10 stamps, which wiil also he taken down and removed to the new site. The work will take three months. During lhe erection of lhe mill, work at the Sl eiuwindei will he prosecuted vigonaisly. The wesl di ift on the 300- foot level is now in 101 feet, with a full face of quart/., neither walls heing in sight. The ore is avei aging consid-r- ahly higher lhan on the second level. Of 77 samples taken from the third level the average gives $0.12, while the ore on the second level only averaged #1.11. We expect lo treat $4 rock and make it pay, and with this end in view we are practicing, and will continue lo practice, the strictest economy in the operation of hoth mine and mill. With the showing we have iu Ihe mine the direct ors believe that a large daily output, with a small margin of profit per ton, should place the company on a sound basis. If we find that with the 26 stamps now being set up we can make a success, the capacity will he doubled. ■-»-« The Golden Crown. A circular hus heen forwarded to all stockholder of the Brandon and Gulden Crown Company announcing the reorganization of the company and Ihe tact that stock may now he exchanged for cert ideates in Ihe new corporation, which will be known as the Oolden Crown Mines, Limited. The statement details the development at the mine, which is claimed to have co-t about $00,(HI0, and predicts lhat when the debts of the company ate settled nnd arrangements made for cnnlimi oils shipments the pvnp'rty wUI pay Its own way. The increasing smelter facilities with the consequent reduced rate for freight and treatment are refer! ed to its features that will materially enhance lbe value of the company's Axxrv*. THE SILENT STEED. Some Interesting Information About thc Use of the Bicycle- Points to Riders. This wrrld we live in has been materially changed since the advent of the bicycle. Things are no', what they were hefore it came along, glorious iti its nickel plate brilliancy, its I ires filled with air and its passage swift uml almost silent along nur streets? What good has Ihe wheel wrought anyway ? Homebody asks. Well, in the Hist place, it is everywhere the disciple of good roads. It is the voiceless but powerful advocate which Incites people to the mending of their ways. No lown likes to he left out in the cold by the army of bicyclists. It is * sort of a boycott, on that town's self-respect and importance. And the authorities improve the roads, and free them from ruts and stones, and the old truck hoises, and the humble pedestrians, as well as the bicyclists, thank their stars for the change. The wheel has, to a great extent, done away with the cruelly lo animals institution known as the livery stable, from whicli every Sunday the reckless young blood hired some wretched old beast, and lashed him through a day of misery and pain. Now, that man straddles his wheel, doubles himself up like a hoop snake, drops his under jaw, and "scorches" for all he is worth, und il doesn't hurl anyone hut himself. The wheel hus induced women to go out of doors. It bus taught them that fresh air and sunshine are not by any means fatal to beauty and refinement. It has freckled their fines, maybe, and browned the whiteness of their swan- like necks, bin it haa given ihem lungs, and loosened their corsets strings so lhat these lungs may have a chance to grow. Il has made them independent, and taught them I hat a woman may depend on herself and still he womanly and swcel. It has filled the life of many a lined, dispirited housewife with blue sky and sunshine and the fragrant breath of summer winds. Peopla who have never known lhe country have seen it. in the grand glory of its freshness and bloom—in the majesty of its autumnal tempests. They have felt the inspiration of the forests, and the uplifting nf its mountains. They have watched the shadows of ti.e white clouds in the clear waters of its lakes, and listened to the music uf the brooks singing ever nn their wny to the s»a. They have got near to i he heart of nature, which is ever kind und loving lo those who come close enough to feci ils warmth. Then, the wheel has fostered habits of economy. Men and women who used tn spend their money on confer* tionery and fancy clothing, save it up lo huy wheels. Il may require considerable self-sacrifice, hut self-sacrifice is good for everybody. No one thoroughly enjoys it, but lhe medicines which benefit us are u ostly u litlle hitter. Then, only think whal a wonderfully prolific subject of conversation tin" bicycle is. Why, the old hackney, xl theme of the weather is nowhere beside it. The most bashful young man in Ihe world can "make talk"about the bicycle. There are, whole volumes to be said almut it, and the half has never yel been told. We no longer hear the young girls, when they get together, discussing beans and new bonnets. The general topic is "my wheel." The varied and numberless advent ures and misadventures connected therewith, and the account of the hairbreadth escapes.while on some momentous trip, are t ui.l with interesl and listened to with pleasure. The learner is f mil of recounting the falls and bruises sustained, and there seems lo be a sort of honoi iu haying had a greal many of these casualties. The pinfcssionnl listens, mildly sympathetic, nnd is lull of suggestions as to how all these accidents might have heen easily averted. The women of maturer years meet ut snnie sewing society, or club, and they don't talk any more shout how Mrs Sound Sn makes her pudding sauce, or how Mrs. This and That fliits wilh the grocer—their theme is "my wheel," and perhaps the relative merils nf divided skirts, knickerbockers, und, whisper it low, bloomers. Just so with the other sex. They talk wheel everywhere and everlastingly. The young man takes his "liest girl" out to ride, and they go on their wheels, The steady going old horse, that could he safely driven with one hand, is at a discount in these days of progress. The wheel requires no hitch rein, and it Is not liable to go lame or develop a ting hone, or have the colic, or the blind staggers, and it doesn't have to he watered, and it dnein't eat oats, nur wear blankets, and ynu don't ■ ; :i 1 (Continued <m page 4.1 THE ADVANCE.

Is it a praci ical business proposition? Could it he more so. It if likely lhat if the people of this province could see the China men and Japanese actually carrying six millions of dollars, in sacks, down on hnard ofa steamer hound for Hung Kong or Yokohama, they would, nt least, raise a woful howl, thu newspapers would raise a howl and the provincial government, wilh or with nut federal sanction, would be compelled in put nu immediate »top to ihis exodus of the people's money. But because the process goes on day by day. with slips of paper called hills of exchange and money orders, business men, professional men, newspaper men and working men do not seem to re-i ize that it is a rnld fad. Yet the this province is being drained as surely us if I >ie cash were being taken nut of ihe shops and houses of tbe inli'iliitunts and cariied off by marauders, It is very simple. Twenty- five ,hon- nnd men come In and get the wmk of a like number of our own people'; 'I'1")' receive tash for their wages aid send it oul uf the country.

Keefer, arrived from the Boundary count ty Thursday, and are stopping at Ihe Grand Central, suys the Nelson Miner, They have been developing Ihe South American group, on the head waters of Kettle river, comprising eight claims. Tliere are two ledges on the property, one a five foot ledge of free milling gold quartz, ii.isaying $45, and the other one font wide of solid arsenical iron ore, carrying good values in gold. The first vein runs with the formation, which is a slate and diorite. The ledge dips at an angle of ahout .15 degrees and has been traced through three claims. They ground sluiced the lead and made an open cut eight feet deep, Thenther ledge is a fissitie, erossciitting the slate formation, On it they have sucked some ore from the suifnce which has given gond returns. They came ovei lo Nelson wiih it-large nunilier of samples to hnve further assays made, and if lhe results are us salis- lactory us anticipated will probably return to work the second vein during the winter. The property is situated within three miles of nn excellent wagon road hnik from Vernon to the Monashee mine. On n claim adjoining the Smith American, Messrs.
