Quality and Price.
While W. T. Shatford & Co. arc noted for thc quality and
price of the goods sold by them. PROSPECTORS and
MINERS operating in the Similkameen and surrounding
mining cairps, would do well to outfit at one of our stores,
where everything is kept that is needed in the mining business,
Instead of buying outside, buy right at home, and so save
money, and this more particularly refers to prospectors going
into the district above referred to.

The Crown Point.
Messrs. John Douglas and James
Atwood are putting a force of men to
work on their claim" the Crown Point,
the "No. 2" and "No. 3" all in Crown
Point camp. Principally, attention
will Ik- directed to the Crown Point
claim upon which n consideralile
amount ui* work has already been done,
a shaft heing now down on the property some 50 feet. This shaft will la;
deepened and then a crosscut drift
to cut the vein will lie run from it.
The vein as shown on the surface is
several feet wide, and carries a solid
galena ore, which contains a high percentage of silver. It also carries a
small (H.rcentage of cupper and some
gold value, and is altogether a fine
shipping proposition as soon as the
railway which will lit* huilt to within
easy reach of the claim, approaches it.

Tbe appearence of the Sleinwiuder
mine at Fairview is improving daily,
as a result of lit.- lively pii-liinj- ahead
of development work.   A raise is being
made from the 200-foot level at a point
about 170 feet west from the foot of the
main working shaft, and the ore which
is coming out of this raise is said to be
some of the best yet encountered in the
mine, as it will easily average from $S
to s&> a ton and that too for the whole
width of the vein, whieh at this point
is some 'A) feet wide.    Apart from this
raise a crosscut drift is being run to
cut the south vein .11 the property, and
this drift too is being cut on the _W-
foot level.   The end of the drift should
now Ik* Hearing the vein, and when it
is entered it is expected a fine laxly of
gre will be encountered.  The amount
of development in the mine can be
easily conceived when it i.s suited that
tho management expect to have iu the
course of aliout two months some 100.-
000 tons of ore blocked out and ready
for .sloping, an amount of free milling
ore uot showing it may lie conjectured
in any other similar property today in
the province.
At this mine it is expected that a 40
or 00 stamp mill will soon lie erected,
and as soon as this starts running, if
only tbe ore will mill up to the expectations of the management or tii a ton,
the Stemwiniler will become one of
the recognised dividend paying properties of BritishColuinhia. This is what
Fairview camp haa been waiting for
for some time, and the sooner it comes
the better.

Shot by a Deputy -Sheriff.
Asa result of resisting arrest a man
liy the name of Jack .McDonald met
his death near Curlew on I he Colville
i-eservation.on Thursday last. It would
seem that McDonald has heen wanted
together with two other men by
the United States authorities for
for some time juist, for some serious
crime committed in Montana, or some
hoitlei-ing state, as the deputy sheriff
who tried to arrest McDonald.
is said to lie a .Montana detective, who
with two other deputy sheriffs bad
tracked their man after a long chase
■md extending overa year, to the north
half of the Colville reservation. The
crime must have been a serious one, as
it is said the slierilfs carried warranto
for the taking of the men either dead
or alive. Those familiar with the inci-
of the shooting, say that the
ih linty sheriff having learned that McDonald, one of the men wanted, was

perience that Mr. Joe Snodgrass, the
driver, a son of the proprietor of the
stage line, did not at first comprehend
the situation, and so told the party
giving the command to get out of ihe
way. I'p,ai receiving a second summons however, he began to understand
the state of affairs, and taking a closer
observation, he soon discovered that
the party giving commands was masked and fortilled with two lug revolvers
held one in each band. A side glance
the next moment also made him aware
that there was more than one man
engaged in the holdup, for standing on
the bank beside the road, ahout on a
vei with the passengers on the stage
aod behind a small tree, was another
masked man. and he too was in possession of a couple of ugly looking guns.
Strange to say the passengers on the
stage were not in anv way molested,
as the only orders given were to the
driver, who was reuuested to hand out
the express box. This order was complied with hy the mail sacks being
dropped out into the road. As soon as
ihis was done the driver was ordered
to move on. which he did. Slowly the
stage mounted the grade, and as it did
so Mr.Snodgress turned to look at the
robbers,and they noticingthis.sliouted
to him that he had hetter get a
move on. as they "didn't want any ruli-
i er necking around them," Tlie driver
took the hint, and whipping up his
horses made for Hosiers, from whence
