Vety little has heen henrxl nf late uliniit the Highland Queen Consolidated Mining and Milling Company's properties, Imt tbe oompany ban been steadily going abead and developing tbeir claims with very Bittlsfaotory results. Every dollar that hns lieen spent Ium made a good showing. Thr work has beeu curried on under good management, and the properties never looked lietter lhan they do at tin- present time, Tin- Highland Queen Consolidated Mining ami Milling Company, Limited, was incorporated in Spokane, Wash , in January, 181*7, and was registered in British Columbia, as a foreign company, in May of the same year. Its head office iu British Oolumhla is al Midway, The company owns the Highland Queen, Big Windy and Snowdrop claims. THE HIGHLAND Ql.'EKN. Thi' Highland Queen is situated near Anaconda. It was located on the ir,th day of April, 181)5. Developnienl work consists of a shaft, 5x7, H4 feet deep, showing a well defined quartz vein two feet wide, well mineralized with iron, galena and zinc hleude, assays from which gave 200 ounces in silver and $10 in gold per ton. Tbe ledge crops out on thtt surface a distance nf HUH feet and Is fnun 1(1 to 18 inches wilt'. Tlie sirike of thf ledge is northerly and southerly and it dips to Hit' east al an angle of 20 degrees. A large iron cap wjis discovered on ihe property about -i*1 feel east of the main shaft. and a shaft was sunk on it, showing it large hody of iron sulphide, with Btilue copper, When work was suspended a shurl time ago some beautiful ore had hi-i'ti struck. Ihe claim bas hi en surveyed and a crown grant applied for. THK 111(1 WINDY was located on the Hist of March, 1805. li is situated in Providence camp, on j Eholt creek. Development work consists of a shaft. 5x7, -Kl feet deep, al which depth a well defined qunitz vein i luee feet wide, whieh was well mineralized with copper and iron, and assaying $12 in gold and frnm 8 io 1(1 oz. in silver and H per eent oopper per ton, waa encountered. Muchsurface work h.is also been done. The strike of the vein is east and west and it dips lo the ninth at an angle of 25 degrees, It is an ideal location for the shipment of ore as the Columbia & Western runs through the centre tif the property and within 20(1 feet of lhe shaft. I' lias been surveyed and a crown giant applied for. THE HNOWIHKIP is situated in Douglas' oamp, about three miles east of Midway and near ihe International Bouudary line. It j was loeated on thu 26th day of Maroh. 181)7. The International, a properly with a good showing, joins it on the east. Development work consists of a tunnel 12 feet in length, the face of which shows a strong ledge ot blue quartz carrying copper, galena and Iron and assaying $1(1. No great depth was attained hy this tunnel, so that Ihe assay was almost a surface one and the ledge tlmt was encountered wits mil lhe main one. hul it is expect i'ii thnt hy itinulng ihe tunnel another 41) feel lhe main ledge will lie tupped, and as the hill is inure precipitous for Hie next forty feel Hum whew the tunnel hns already lieen run a greater deplh will he attained, and it is altogether likely that hetter assays uill he obtained, for it has heen found thai on nearly all the properties in the vicinity ot the .Snowdrop the values of Ihe oie hnve Increased very rapidly the farther they went down on them. Although enough woik has heen done on lbe Snowdrop to entitle it to be crown granted, the company inlendsto resume work this fall, and eX| t Hint hy the time ihe Standard OupperCom* pany's smeller is in operation it will lie iu a position to ship, aud Ihis is wliere the Snowdrop will have a great advantage, Situate as it is there is a good wagon road from the smelter site al' most to the pioperty, and as the rock is of such a nature as lo be easily worked, the cost of mining nnd hauling the ore to the smelter will lie so comparatively small Hint it will give a better return after payingall expenses, than many high grade properties wliieh me expensive to work and Inconveniently situated for the transportation of its ores. THE WINMI'KH. A winze is being sunk on Hi" first vein in lhe crosscut north fiom the shaft at the 800-fonl level of lhe Win- nipeg mine, Wnltingnm camp, Although hut litlle depth hns yel. lieen gained in the winze, the vein has al- i ready widened frnm two tu four feel of good looking ore. A carload is heing shipped lo Trail lo ascertain ils value. The railway ledge now .shows six feet of shipping ore, a crosscut under tbe old US-foul level, from which ore was taken out some time ago and ihe stupe (Hied wilh wasle, having run into this nice ore Imdy. The last returns received from ilu- sun Iter were from a 20-ton car, whieh neited $1175 after payment nf freighl and treatment charges. There has heen a decided Improvement in ihe condition and prospects of this mine since Superintendent N. Ttegeai assumed charge of it. THE BNOWBHOK, What is known as ihe railroad tunnel of lhe Snow-hoe mine, in (liven- wood camp, is now in nearly IKK) feel, the greater pail of this distance in ore. A crosscut now lieing driven from this tunnel is in Ml feel and is not yet ihrough the ore body. The 71)horse power hoiler recently received has heen built in and will shortly lie ready for use. Oilier new plant lately received at the mine includes a 12 Inch hv 1(1 feet air receiver, two llj Little Giant drills and a 11x2x11 Snow boiler feed pump. THE OLD IHONHIDEH. The shipment of ihe Old Ironsides, Victoria and Kiioli Hill, to ihe Granhy smell ri. Grand Porks, in date number ahoul 11KI fins, approximately uiKK) tons. Al present 11(1 men are employed, The new shnfl house al the No. 1 shaft of the Old Ironsides, which is 28 feel hy 80 ft el, is ahout completed and anew hoisting engine is now lieing placed at this shaft to replace the old one, which will be taken helow ground for use there. A new huilding will shorlly he erected for lhe hoist al the mouth of No. 2 shafl, on boundary line lietween Old Ironsides and Victoria. Tin- hig hoist at this shafl is nol ou a sufficiently solid formation, su it will he removed and placed on rock foundation. Two80*b.p, hollers are heing bricked in al Ilie Kiioli Hill and a new 0x12 hoist is lieing installed, There is not much new developnienl wink heing done at present on these properties, hut ore is heing stuped in the Ktinh Hill and Victoria, A diamond drill is now heing used in prospecting on ihe Banner claim adjoining the Old Ironsides nn lhe west. THE MiiTUI'lt LODE, Tbe foundations for the 35-drill compressor and two KKI-horse power hollers have been linislicd at the Mother Lode, and a new dining hall is nearly completed. A I rum way has lately been constructed from the month of the main shaft to the ore hins, which are being tilled Willi ore from lhe dump near hy. The north drift at the IKK) foot level is now iu aboui IKI feet. Oie hns heen cut in two crosscuts, one at DOfeet trom the shaft and the other al IBO feet. Tbe ore hody is ahoul 20 feel witle in the former, hut the other is not yet through it. The soul h drift is in about 140 feet. Theie are two crosscut* fi tun this drift and the rock iu the faces is becoming mineralized. THE WAR KAII1.K. In the summer of 1801 there were made, in a pari of the Boundary Creek district since known as (Ireenwood cninp, live local ions, embracing mineral claims all of which to-day give promise of becoming permanent mines. There may hnve lieen nther locations made ahoul lhe same time, hul il is of these live neighboring claims that mention is here lieing made, and of one of tbem in particular—the War Eagle —that il is Intended now In give fuller Information, The locations of the Old Ironsides and the Knob Hill were both recorded on .Inlv 26th, 181)1, at Camp McKinney, thnt heing lhe nearest recording office. Tbe former was located hy M. Hatter, since deceased, and Ihe hitler liy Henry White, nine days later, on August Hid. Thc location of lbe Sleiiiwindei hy Dallies Alwood, now a residenl of ihis place,and James Seholli'ld, who returned to Kngland in 1808, was recorded, On August 4ih the Brooklyn wns recorded, Sieve Mangott, now of fairvlew, mid Joseph M, Taylor, still resident within four or five miles of Iliis elaini, lieing th'. locators, The War Eagle wus located liy Robert Detrzler ami VV, A Douglas, and wns recorded mi August 20ih. The former is now in Spokane, Wash, Mnelrhas heen published of th" Old Ironsides, Knoli Ilill. Stemwinder and Brooklyn from time lo time, hul not. ncuily so much prominence has yet been given lo lhe War Eagle, The reason is fl very simple one-the four flrst named properties were acquired hy Eastern capitalists before tbe War Eagle was nnd iheir systematic development was entered upon much earlier. All live cliiinis, however, have one thing in common, viz.. Ihey were all located under an earlier Mineral Act, which gave litem extra lateral liglrs (that is the right to follow their ore on its tlip even shoulil il continue into llll adjoining claim) nnd Ihey nre all now cull rolled hy Eastern Canadian coin* punies. Any one familiar with the h'll nr mountain upon whieh .tie situ-it-,! the Old Ironsides, Knoh Ilill, Y'nloiin, Grey Eagle, War Eagle, Tamarac, Monarch, Oold Drop, Snowshoe ami adjacent claims will agree with lho slad-uient Hint the numerous mineral outcroppings, taken in relation io underground developments on several of lhe group, mark ihis parlluulai section of (ireenwood camp as giving extraordinary promise of mineral wealth. The War Eagle has an altitude of 5,070 feel ahove si-it level, ll is situ l- ed in thickly limiii-red country and so possesses the advantage of hiving a home supply of min-■ limher and fu I. ll bas, too, a fair water supply for mine purposes, On ihe olalm occur three oui crops of mineral, hutsitffioicnt work lins not yet lieen done tn determine their connection, if any, with one another, It mattei-s Inle though whether these are the outcrops of separate veins or nl ne hig ie.ul split up near the surface ; whether they are extensions of tbe big ore hotly already followed from the Kn di Bill in'n ihe Grey lvigle and helleved hy some in continue theme into the War Hugh'. or are quite dlst'nct fnun ihnt deposit. There is this one simple Inil important fact standing out, ihat where prospi cling helow ground copper-gold ore of good quality has heen found to underlie the min 'iai outcrops, so thai developments to date encourage the belief that with deplh the War Eagle will give a gond account of itself and be a valuable mining property on its u ■•- ii merits and so wi'l be quite independent of the reflected seeming importance so often attached to :t olalm that is considered to he well situated or In simply iu good company, Tlie War Eagle is owned hy thi Greenwood-War Eagle Gold-Copper I Mining Conipany, of Sheibrooke, Que- beo, capitalized at $1,500,0(10. Its officers are Mr. T. .1. Buck, President : Mr. 0, H. Fletcher, Vice President, , and Mr. C. A. French, S cr wry Tte..s* 1 urev.

The way lo increase the price of mining shareB is to olfer none for sale. lt takes 80 armed men to hold down a mineral claim in Canua, Sonora. In British Coliiniliia three posts answer the purpose. Oom Paul Kruger, in the way he urges the Boers lo keep on fighting, reminds ono of Arteinus Ward, who wanted the civil war in the U. S. tn go on if it COlt the lives of lhe last of bis wife's relations.. Caste is a wonderfully bandy thing for those who do not waul lo work. In Canada the employe- is as highly thought of as his or her employer so long as ihe work is properly performed. Take no slock In people who refuse to work at this or that for fear they will lose social caste. According to population, Canada is the hest served of lbe countries of tbe world regaidiug railways, having !i,2H) miles of railway per million of inhabitants, and the United States coming next, with 2,045 miles ; the Argentine Republic has 2,080 miles ; Sweden 1,217 miles, whilst Great Britain has 531 miles. The disproportion hetween diffeicnt countries in respect to Ibe ratio of mileage is impressive. Thus, assuming Great Britain, with 5HI miles of road to each inillinn of iuhahitaiils, as the standard for a well peopled country, then the United States, with » population In 1808 of, say, 70,000,000, would be entitled to only 37,300 miles of railway, or one-Hfth of the actual mileage. On the other hand, Briiish India, instead of only 21,500 miles of road, or 70 miles to each million of people, should have 153,700 miles lo he on a par with Great Britain, and little Japan, by tbe saint: reasoning, should hnve ahoul eighl times ils present mileage, or2H,500 miles of road, instead of less than 8,000 miles, What China should have with its 400.000,000 of inhabitants, may he imagined. DISPUTE SETTLED. Arbitrators' Award re Indebtedness of Ontario and Quebec to Ottawa. 6ver since Confederation there hns been a dispute between the Dominion and the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec, relniive lo the indebtedness of i he latter piovinces, then known as Canada, to what now constitutes the Dominion, and the mai ter has dragged along its course for over HO years, An Ottawa despatch says that Ihe case has al lasl been settled, and the commission appointed lo ascertain lhe exact indebtedness has submitted its awards to the Finance Department, The counsel for the Doniinion was W. D. Hogg, and the arbitrators, Sir John Boyd, Sir Louis ('assault and Judge Bill-bridge. The first award deals wilh funds in possession of Ontario belonging to Ihu Doniinion, and is simply lhe stamping as coned by the arbitrators of the account admitted hy the two parlies as correct. Ontario presented on June 2, WOO, a statement showing in (he possession of lhe Province, tail belonging to the Dominion, $1,815,818.. 50. This statement was admitted correct by counsel for the Dominion, Certain matters iu respect, of the common school fund and of the Northwest Angle treaty Nil, 8 have not been dually concluded and determined, as the principal nr capital nf certain funds held by Ilie I) ini.>ti forlhe Province have not been entered in the statement to Ilie credit of lhe Province, und this award Is and shall he taken ,'o he made wi'h respect only to the Interests dealt wiih iu the said statement and without prejudice to Ihe authority of ihe arbitrators in lhe final settlement of lhe accounts. The second award is Ihe settlement uf ihe amount due by the Provinces of Quebec mul Ontario jointly, and paid iiy I lie Doniinion as arrears of increased annuities to the Ojibway Indians of Lakes Huron and Superior under the Robinson treaties of Sept. 7th and 0th, 1850. Ilm amount fixed is $205,000. Tbe third award proportions between Ontario and Quebec (lie direct debt assumed by Ihe Dominion in 1807 as follows : Ontario, $112,480.68 ; Quebec, $1(0,553.51. Tho awards are all dated August 1st. ra. NEiVSOFTHE CAMPS. (Continued from page 1.) Both manager ami foreman have their homes on tho property, and besides their residences, the mine huildings include comfortable hoarding mul hunk houses for the miners und other employees. The War Eagle is within a mile of tho town of Phoenix, with which it has wagon road oniiiiiiiiiiiru- tion. Later, when tlie mine shall have lieen sufficiently opened up to require direct tonne linn with the railway, il will bean easy matter fo Ilml a goml grade for a spur lino from Hartford Junction, distant only a mile or so. Tlie Sunset sent out ils second carload of ore last. week. Crosscullingal tho 150-foot, level is now being carried on at lhe Ciown Silver. Ii Is reported that ihs Rvening Star and Selhy claims, in Wellington camp, have been sold by Messrs.Fraser Bros, to Andrew Laidlaw, of Denver, Col. On ihe J. and R. in Wellington camp Ihe shaft is down HO feet, and the shaft on the Hard Cash 18 feet, iu very rich ore. Tho ore is cbalcopyrite in a quill Iz gangtie. The Athelstan In Wellington camp is shipping ore. One bundled Ions have been hauled to the Winnipeg spur this week. Shipment will average ahoul two cars a week. An assessment, has just, been completed on the Houston iu Triple Lake camp, owned liy Ihu Vancouver and liounilaiy Creek Mining and Develop* meiil Company. A i ich lead of quart/, carrying tellurium was disclosed. The buildings, nre bins and trestles at Ihu Molher Lode smelter are all completed and lit lie more can he done nnlil Hie plans for the foundation for Hie machinery come from Milwaukee, whence some of lho plant was shipped lust week. Robert Wood hits purchased from A. liobinson of Beaverton the Alice M. and Hard Times, adjoining the Sally group up lhe West Fork of Ihe Kettle river. Mr. Wood has opened up a rich ledge un the Sally group, which he is developing, A few of the freight teams of R. Meyerbolf. of Midway, are at present engaged hauling <>"i* from the Golden Kagle mine, in Brown's camp. This mine has ready for immediate shipment 1U0O sacks of ore, amounting lo ahoul two carloads, The ore came from I he 45 and 100-foot levels. Ahout half a car bad already lieen hauled down to '.he railroad. The shipment will be sent tothe Trail smeller. C. M. Melville, J. Winters and B. Ingrim returned on Friday from Beaverton, where ihey have been doing assessment work on the Silver King, a promising mineral claim of which ihey arc* the owners, It Is sil Hate ahoul a half mileeasl of Beaverton, and adjoins ihe well known Black Diamond, Two assessments have beeu done on this claim, and some very good ore lias lieen taken out containing gold, copper, silver and lead, bul as no report has lieen made by thi assayer no exact, statement with regard to it can be made, Spencer llenerman has returned from Triple Lake camp, where ne iu company wilh H. Slrouss have lieen working on the Foothill, which is close (o the O. K., only a small fraction lying lietween them. The Foothill is a full claim and is owned hy Mr. Ben eriiiiin, A large open cut. has been run fm about HO feet and strikes the ledge at a depth of ten feet, A crosscut was run on the ledge for ahout 15 feel, ihe first eighl feet being of arsenical iron nut copper wns coming in towards the foot wall, ll is supposed lhat this is the O. K. lead, There are two more leads on the property run iting parallel to the main one. On nne of these considerahle work has lieen done show ing it to ho about 10 inches wide aud is described as being a white quartz carrying tellurium, and from ihe nature of I he ore it is supposed to run very high in gold. The nther lead wns found to lie aliout 10 feet wide, it is also a while quartz well mineralized witb arsenical iron. Messrs, Ben- eriiiau and Slrouss will leave again on Wednesday to do the work on the Arlington group, up the West Fork. While on a visit lo Copper Mountain Up Meyers creek T, McAuley visited a number of the principal properties of that district. He says that Copper mountain has l he largest showing he has seen ill this country, On the Hoineslake, owned by Dittmer BrosM there is good ore from the grass roots. A tunnel has lieen run for a distant" of ID feel, i he face uf which is all in ore and is described as a magnetic iron, carrying gold and copper. Considerable work has Imwii done as well, in Ihe way of surface prospect ing, and several small shafis have been sunk each disclosing a ledge of good ore, which il is believed will give good as. say values, On the Copper Queen owned by D. McClung and VV. Fob- beuder, an 85-foot shaft, was sunk, disclosing a four foot ledge of copper sulphide ore, which gave assays all the way from $15to $00 in all values, Tbe Neutral is another good properly, nnd all bough no great amount of development work has lieen done, yet a ledge of magnet ic iron ore has been discovered, which gave very satisfactory assays. The Ram's Hoi n and Cariboo are among lhe mure important properties. Tbey are owned by Mr, McAuley aud associales. Development work on the former consists of a iium- ber of open cuts andseverol shafts, In one shafl at a deplh of 25 feet a ledge of ore was encountered, carrying copper pyrites ami assaying $25 per ton, The Cariboo has considerable work done on it. The main shaft is down about HO feet and at that depth a rich lead of high grade ore was encountered similar to I hat on the Ram's Horn. Mr. McAuley considers that some day the mines of Copper Mountain will rank among the first of the province. August 18, iooo. ,* MINKIIAI. L(HUTION8. AUOUHT 18. 77, Summil camp, S. McNeill et al.
