Tho Mine Has Beon Purchased
Outright at a Discount.
Nelson, Aug. 28.���The Spyglass
mine was purchased outright to-day
by the parties who had it bonded,
und it will he transferred to the
Spyglass Mining and Development
Company, Ltd. Last November
the Spyglass mine, which is situate
near thc head of Poplar creek, and
about 11 miles from Ihe town ot
Poplar, was bonded from the original owner, John Winquisf, by R.
G. McLeod. The price named in
the bond was $35,000, and 10 per
cent of this was paid in cash, the
balance was to be paid within a
year. In consideration of Ihe balance being paid now, Mi*. WInquist,
who wants to go back lo his old
home in Michigan, Irom which he
has been absent 11 years, made a
reduction in the price and accepted
cash, whicli was paid to him to-day.
The company that was formed lo
lake over the bond has had men on
the property all summer, and there
is now a good showing in Ihe way
of development work. No. 2 tunnel
is in 170 feet, and the ore chute
which was struck at 114 feet still
holds out.
The vein is from 3 to 3}'.* feet
wide, and tiie paystreak from S to
16 inches. The ore is dry, the
values being silver (native and grey
copper). It is high-grade, the
lowest assay going 2.11 ounces and
running Up to over 3,000 ounces.
Mr. McLeod claims that the ore
will average 300 ounces silver.
Now that title is vested in the
company, bunk-houses will be built
so that work can be continued all
winter. It is not likely that a
wagon road can be built this year,
but ore will be raw hided down the
trail this winter.
While the officers of the company
are local men, of the*400,000 treasury shares, 50,000 have been placed
in Minnesota. Tlie capital stock is
500,000 shares of the par value of
$1. Bruce White is president ; Dr.
R. J. Hawkey, vice-president ; R.
li. McLeod, secretary treasurer;
and J. A. Magee, superintendent
anil managing director.
The Horn Silver King,
This property was bonded early
this spring by a Minneapolis syndicate for $18,000, and active opera-
t uiis may be looked for during the
next few weeks. This was one ol
the first groups located in lho Lardeau on the Morn ledge, and is
situate about three miles from Circle
City. There are three distinct
ledges, two nre of the silver-lead
proper, the third pyi'tttes of copper,
containing high values in gold and
silver.

awanda.
m
Johnny Morgan, Geo. Weir and
Alex. Laing came down from the
Tonawanda, which is about I wo
miles from Ferguson, on Tuesday
evening last, bearing with their
some excellent .specimens of quartz
for arsny. Morgan and Weir have
been plugging away lor Ihe past
three months on this property, and
it was generally conceded that ihe
property was barren hy the town's
wiseacres. Tliey claim having
struck a g inch showing which is
principally rich ore. Tliey are now
sinking a shaft for 60 feet, and if
is considered a 200 It. tunnel should
lap the lead. The Kagle man will
visit the properly lo-niorrow (Satur-
-i**y*	
Invincible Group.
Assessment has been completed
for the year on this group. The
property is situated on Hold gulch,
tributary to G;iiner Creek, and
owned by W. Shannon et al. The
showing of ore is very large of a
medium quality, that is, about 70
ounces silver. The lead is known
as lhe Horn, and is considered by
local experts to carry the highest
values at this point. This is a summit proposition, practically above
timber line, and the surface cannot
be excelled, with the exception of
one or two cases.
Wimslow Looks Good.
Will Davey reports that tlie tunnel 011 the Wimslow is now in /jo
feet, and that the crew have got into six feet of the ledge, which i-,
widening out. A shipment is about
to be made, and if returns are as
high as they prognosticate they
should have no trouble in effecting
a deal tlie ensuing fall. S200 per
ton is the estimate of local experts.
This tunnel 011 the Molly Mc. is
now in 150 feet, and values are continuing at depth.
Gold fromSheep's Heads
The London Daily Mail devoted
two columns of a recent issue to a
queer story, whicli were so much
space not devoted to it we should
treat as a bear or fish story. The
paper avers that an cast end individual hit upon.a very novel way of
making money. Sheep's head being a favorite dish of the poor
people, he strolls from door to door
nnd purchases for a small sum the
jaw bones of the sheep. Nine,
tenths of the mutton used in London
comes from Australia and it is said
that by reason of. the sheep grazing
in pastures which are alluvial soil,
small 'particles of gold become attached Ip the teeth of the sheep,
this the financial genius removes by
some unknown means, and it is said
he is making' a handsome profit.

Tlie Fire Fiend Demolishes tho
Greater Part of tlio Pretty
Little Lakeside Town.
Monday, August _7.I1 1001 will
long he remembered by the residents
ol B.eaton ns their "black day.'.'
Everyono had laid the ll'attering
unction to 1ik.i1 souls lhat will, (lie
passing away 0! llic forest fires,

also, fiut in respect they were
doomed 10 disappointment, and today, save where new frames are
going up, ihe greater portion cf
this peaceful little town lies in
ruins���a prey t.i lhe insatiable thirst
of the fire king. On Monday morning last, shortly bene 9, flames
were seen issuing from the kitchen
of the Prospectors' Exchange.
Arthur Evans, who v. is transferring
the telephone from Ihis hotel to
Stevens'store was the first to notice
the outbreak, and gave Ihe alarm,
Willing hands were soon on tho
spot, but before an abundance of
water could he obtained, the rear
ol the house burst in'.o flame. All
efforts were directed, to salvage,
and the piano and some valuable
furniture were removed lo a place of
safety. Meanwhile the spread of
the flame could not lie retarded, and
in a few minutes after tiie occupants
had made good their retreat, tho
whole building was a gigantic bonfire. Crave fears were entertained
for tlie surrounding dwellings, and
all efforts were now turned in this
direction, and at one lime it was
thought tlie destructive element
could he localized. A few minutes
later the root lell in, and almost
simultaneously the adjoining harness shop burst into flame. Continuing to spread in spite of the undaunted efforts of the volunteers,
the blacksmith shop was next licked
by the flames, and tho heat and
smoke were terrific.
Meanwhile the occupants of lhe
smallei tenements had covered their
roofs with wet blankets, as grave
danger existed from falling sparks.
Alex. Crawford's dwelling house adjoining the blacksmith shop was
now blazing fiercely, and the flames
leaped across the road. George
Johnson's house was soon enveloped,
and it became apparent that to
check the progress of the lire W.
Johnson's dwelling must he blown
up, which was speedily acted on.
Strutt's dwelling was thus saved.
The Pioneer Hotel was soon a raging inferno. Prantlord's and Dickenson's livery barns were soon well
alight, and here the devouring
element showed the first signs of
diminishing in fury. Continuing
tlieir exertions with renewed vigor,
the brave baud of workers pre
venled the flames spreading further,
and it was seen that the worse was
past. Slowly the flames from the
burning masses succumbed and in
a short time all further danger had
ceased.
Most of the valuables in all cases
were saved, but the loss to this small!
community will lie very severe.   We
give below an estimate of lhe build.

English Graft Exposed, j
TO BAOHELOHS,
A few weeks ago an advertisement tinder this heading appeared ���
I in most of the Kootenay journals,
the "Eagle" included. We now
wish co warn our tenders that lhe
scheme is a " fake." We humbly
apologise for ihe insertion of
the ad, in these columns, and at llie
same time take unto ourselves a certain amount of satisfaction in laying
the swindles low before their object
was achieved. On receipt of lhe
advertisement, whieh wss accompanied by a typewritten letter Irom
a firm of advertising contractors
who guaranteed the bona-fules of
tlieir "clients," the Eagle man had
grave doubts of the honesty ofthe
advertisers. Hurriedly penning a
copy of the ad., the original along
with the typewritten letter was
placed in an envelope and addressed
to the "Chief Commissioner of
Police, Scotland Yard, London,
E.C." The Ivigle man also penned
several epistles lo " college friends"
in the gay capital to hasten to tlie
advertised address and report progress. Tlie answer to Ihe latter is
to the effect lhat the stylish address
on the circular has for its original
a frowsy little newsagents shop, in
the one window of whieh a card
is suspended bearing this legend :
" Letters may be addressed here,
id. each." We have received no
communication in answer lo ours
from Scotland Yard officials, hut
have no doubt they have been well
on the trail
The Winnipeg Free Press if appears got on the track of the individuals who advertised a wife for a
V., and that journal has received a
communication Irom the Emigration
Commissioner in London announcing that the whole business is a sell.
As far as our advertising account
with these people arc concerned, we
have no doubt they were staggered
at the sum they were asked to "pay
the printer," so we are not even
slightly disappointed, The hawks
have lots of gall, and our " bird "
has had lots of fun.

A Recently Staked Claim on tin;
Surprise Creek bas Immense
Lead of Shipping Ore.
" It never rains hut it pours."
This week we have 10 record yet
another rich strike. Thc claim on
which this latest lind is located is
on Surprise creek, tributary to Ihe
north fork oi 1 tie Lardeau river, and
was staked and recorded but two
weeks ago by D. Morgan. The
property is tin the well known
" Surprise lead," and lhe popular
secretary of lhe local branch of lhe
Miners' Union this week succeeded
in uncovering a lead in two places
(������.Hi feet apart ol 3 ft of high-grade
clean ore in one part and 1 foot of
tlie;. same and an immense amount
of concentrates in the oilier. It is
his intention to uncover tke lead in
several more places. A cross-cut
will tap the lead at a deptii of 400
feet. .This is an excellent proposition, there being all the necessary
mining timber growing on the spol,
and an abundance of water.
Mr. Morgan told the Eagle man
he was in  no hurry to sell Ihis prof
perty, as just ttt*prfc*3ent !) e Por-*1
tune was smiling upon him and lie
was not desirous of having too
many irons in the fire.

We are pleased to announce that
Mr. D Morgan has received instructions from his mining partners
in Pictou, N.S., lo go ahead with

THE PKOSPKUTOK HOPEFUL.
The year thus far has proved very
unramuaorative to the prospector as
far as sales are concerned. Capital is
taking" a long; rest, and the prospector
feels the pinch ia consequence.
Thousands are ever willing to follow
this fascinating calling, nnd it is to
their keen eyes, undiminished hope,
and 'unflagging perseverance that we
must look for the great discoveries of
the future. The prospector rarely eels
large monetary rewards for his labor,
and much less in the shape of credit
for the invaluable work lie does. With-
it his generally unrentuneratlvo
effort, most of the great mining properties would never "havo been heard

the work lie has begun and develop-
..���lent fellows, usually with scant rft-
wai'd for the man who has made such
development possible,
Drinking from a fountain of eternal
i.opu, they travel the vulleys, hills and
mountains, meeting all sorts of weather,
encountering all .sort.** of hardships
and privations, subject to all sorts of
disappointments, but over conlldont
that some day they will inake a discovery that is to carry them suddenly
to alllufinec.
Occasionally, though these hopes tire
realized. Now and then a prospector
makes a mino out ol u prospect hy
dogged determination and retires with
a fortune. Hero in thc Lardeau the
discoveries have been exceptionally
rich and numerous tliis year, and 11)0-1
is our banner year in this respect.
Scarcely a day has passed thus far but
that rich locations have been recorded
which will sonic day furtlior euli.iuco

Lardoau is fulli!lln'_r the expectations

prospector with a bonanza must hold
down the proporty on an empty -.loin*
ach unless capital beats the middleman
and <.-cts in on the ground door.
Tin* present is a most opportune time
for capitalists to work torrent advantage by dealing direct with the prospector. The latter cannot live un
ore and mountain scenery. Whin may

who had faith and confidence in tho
country at the onset will see a great
reward. There is no country undor
tie canopy of heaven so rlehly mineralized us the Lardeau, and the one conclusion to be deducted from our reasoning is the country must inevitably be*
���ome tbo loader in II.o near future.
Capitalists are prone to allow the micl-

A Shipper of
High-Grade Oold and Silver Ore.
BADBRS of the " Lardeau Eagle "  note the
following concerning one of our Lending Producing Mines near Ferguson, B.C., and which has had-a
great name from its discovery five years ago. Situated 9
miles S. Ii. o[' Ferguson at tlie head of the great mining basin
at the source of Triune creek is the property known as The
Triune, consisting o( 200 acres now owned and nearly
paid for by the Metropolitan Gold and Silver Mining Co.,
Ltd., whose head office is at Minneapolis, -Minn., and
mining office at Ferguson, B. C. The Company already
had 400 acres 9 miles north of Ferguson on ihe North Fork
of thc Lardeau, also a good mining property, when il
sought and purchased The Triune in 1902, the same year
mining and selling over $9,000 worth high-grade gold and
silver ore from The triune. In the 90 days' summer
working in 1903 we mined and sold to the Canadian Smelting Works, Trail, B.C., $16,000 worth of ore from The
Triune, running $9.50 per ton in gold, $10.50 in lead, and
$123.00 silver, making an average value of $143.00 per toil
in 20-ton car load lots for the entire season. We are now
operating The Triune with 20 men mining and delivering
ore to Trout Lake City, where we load on thc* Canadian
Pacific Railroad's boats and send to the smelter at Trail,
B. C. We ti nv keep two-thirds of our men on new development work : extending tunnel No, 1, and :^a new tunnel
No. 3, while we also mine and ship a little over 7 tons of
this high-grade ore per week.
We shipped from Trout Lake one car load of 20 tons
July 30, and will ship another car of same size about Aug.
We have let the contract and have partially constructed
a new Double Wire Standard Tramway at The Triune,
costing us $20,000, to enable us to handle larger amounts
of ore per day, as the mine demands larger output: facilities,
and we want the train done this year, to enable us to ship
from 5 to 10 tons per day tight through the year.
We need more money than present ore-shipments furnish during this mouth. Hence the Directors have now
put upon the market a limited amount of treasury stock at
below par, Far value $1.00 per share. We now have over
1,400 stockholders.
Shares of our Treasury Sloe/: in anion.'its of from
50 Shares up will be .told if bought and paid for
daring A ugust for SOc. per shure until such funds
sufficient to pan the unpaid Tramway payments are in
hand, when the sale will be slopped, aud Funds or
Orders coming too late will be promptly returned to the
Subscribers.
