SHOOTS AT THE PRINCE The Prince of Wales Fired Upon by a Belgian Anarchist. WHILE ENROUTE TO COPENHAGEN With tbe Princess to Attend the Celebration of King Christian's Birthday-The Prince will not now Attend the Paris Exposition Brussels, April 4.���The prince and princess of Wales were on their way to Copenhagen this morning for the purpose of attending the celebration of king Christian's birthday, which occurs April 13th. when, as the train was leaving the northern station for the Southern Railway station, an individual fired a revolver at the prince of Wales, but missed his royal highness. Intense excitement prevailed for the moment, as it was feared the prince had been hit, the shots having been fired almost point blank. The railway carriage door was hastily thrown open, and great relief was felt when the prince appeared at the window unhurt. Both the prince and princess, however, had a very narrow escape. The policeman on duty took Sipido in charge. The latter appeared proud of his exploit and seemed quite calm. He said to the authorities that he lived on the Rue de la Forge at Saint Gilles, two miles south of Brussels. The would-be assassin is a tinsmith named Sipido, a resident of Brussels, 16 years of age. In his pocket was found a great deal of anarchist literature. He fired two shuts at the prince. The princess of Wales and others were in the car, but no one was touched. When examined by the railroad officials Sipido declared he intended to kill the prince of Wales, and that he did not regret his action. He was ready to do it again if given the chance. Hearing shots, the station master rushed to the scene and knocked up the would-be assassin's arm as he prepared to fire the third shot, and a number of persons threw themselves on the prince's assailant. In the confusion a second man who was innocent, was siezed, roughly treated and beaten. After the prince had ascertained that the man who fired the shots was arrested, he declared himself and the princess uninjured, and the train started. Sipido subsequently said he wanted to kill the prince of Wales "because he caused thousands of men to be slaughtered in South Africa." London, April 4.���The marquis of Salisbury immediately telegraphed the prince of Wales his congratulation on his narrow escape from death, and the United States charge d'affaires, Henry White, who was calling on the British premier and minister of foreign affairs at the time, promptly repaired to Malborough House and left his card. At Malborough House General Sir Dighton M. Probyn, comptroller of the household of the prince of Wales, said to a representative of the Associated Press that nothing had been received beyond the mere statement of the fact that an attempt has been made on the life of the prince of Wales. All the officials were greatly disturbed by the occurrence and the general view was that it must be connected in some manner with the Transvaal, especially as the prince has always been such a favorite on the continent and never before has been molested in the slightest degree. One official remarked : "That settles the question of the prince's visit to the Paris exposition." Some fears were expressed as to the effect the occurrence may have in Dublin. It was pointed out that such attempts were contagious. On the other hand, those who are best acquainted with Ireland contend the effect would be to increase the determination of Irishmen that no untoward incident should mar the success of the queen's visit. The news of the attempt on the life of the prince was immediately telegraphed to queen Victoria. The dispatch announcing the attempt on the life of the prince was posted at the Mansion House and attracted crowds without numbers, who expressed their feelings by alternately anathematizing the assailant and cheering the prince. Rescued 91 British Prisoners. Development Work on the Mascot. The Gribi brothers are still developing the Mascot, and every blast shows improved prospects. The rock is all highly mineralized. The hornblend, wall rock and white quartz must surely indicate a ledge not far distant, and if found where expected, it will run parallel with the railway bed, directly under it. Transportation a Vital Factor. The $200,000 bond on the famous Manila group of mineB near Keller held by Patrick Clark, has been extended to give Mr. Clark time to learn from J. J. Hill of the Great Northern railway when he proposes to commence construction work on his railway line through that country. Clark & Sweeny Dissolve. The Daily Mail has the following from Bloemfontein dated Tuesday April 3: "Colonel' Porter with 90 carbineers and Scots Greys and two guns performed a brilliant deed Sunday. He charged a large body of Beers and rescued 91 British prisoners including 11 officers who were captured the previous day. No casualties on the British side." There were no Canadians killed at Bushman's kop. Bowden Goes to Penitentiary. H. H. Bowden, the Halls Mines clerk accused of embezzlement, pleaded guilty Tuesday in the Nelson court of fraudulently appropriating $2,300 of the company's money, and was sentenced to two years' servitude in the penitentiary. The well-known Spokane firm of Clark & Sweeny has dissolved. P. Lewis Clark retiring. Charles Sweeny will continue the business in his own name. The dissolution of the partnership comes from the desire of Mr. Clark to withdraw from active business, on account of his health, which has been poor for some time. By a deed filed in the Spokane county auditor's office Tuesday, for an expressed consideration of $300,000, Mr. Sweeny deeded his interests in the partnership real estate in Spokane to Mr. Clark. Mr. Sweeny has become the owner, on the other hand, of all of Mr. Clark's interests in mining properties in which the firm has been jointly interested. Among the principal mining properties held or controlled by the firm of Clark & Sweeny are: The Empire-State Idaho (properly known is the Last Chance, and situated at Wardner, Idaho;) the Tiger-Poorman, at Burke, Idaho; the Big Buffalo and about 20 others in Buffalo Hump country. Amusing to the C. P. R. Officials. A 90-DAY OPTION SECURED The Montreal Syndicate Takes Options on Two More Mining Properties. THE Z01E BELLE AND LITTLE JACK Just Across the Line In the Direction of Halls Ferry���Thirty Day's Time to Bef ia Work, four men to Continue it 60 days. Quite a number of newspapers, The Record among the rest, taking the Rossland Miner for authority, published accounts last week of reductions in freight rates on the Columbia & Western railway. The statements made were erroneous, as the railway company was substituted for the Dominion Express company. The rates quoted as those of the railway should have been stated as those of the express company. As it wsb, it canted the agents along the road to wonder whether they or the editors were "rattled." The Trail Creek News is advertised for sale. A big mining deal has been on the tapis in Cascade this week, A representative of the great Montreal Mining Syndicate, in which C. J. McCuaig is a prominent figure, was in town Wednesday and Thursday, closing a contract with John Beas- ley and J. A. Heard for options on the Zoie Belle and Little Jack, two claims just across the line in the direction of Hall's Ferry, about four miles from town. As near as we can make out the deal was consummated inthe following manner: The Montreal syndicate, for an option of 90 days, is to begin development work on the claims within 30 days, and to employ four men in such work 60 days. In two equal amounts the owners are to be paid abont $12,- 000 for the claims. The specimens of ore taken from the claims which were exhibited here are rich indications. The work on these claims so far done consists of a 22-foot shaft, a 14-foot tunnel and two crosscuts of 21 and 30 feet respectively, splendid ore being encountered in all directions. The mining industry in the- Boundary and Republic districts is growing more active and substantial, and confidence in these mineral fields is daily being more firmly established, and the development works and prospecting going on in the numerous claims about thiit place gives assurance to the claim that Cascade is in the right place, and the surrounding conditions- most propitious. Col. Broadwood Defeated. April 1st, Col. Broadwood was attacted by a strong army of Boers 38 miles east of Bloemfontein, and lost seven guns, all his baggage and 350 men. The lumber is on the ground and the work of enlarging C. H. Thomas' stage barn is already under way. Mr. D. D. Ferguson has charge of the work. The vein in the Quilp mine, Republic camp, is said to be 96 feet wide. ���nam ��������� THE CASCADE RECORD April 7, IMS ?% V UK TME B. C.

The following dispatch was published in the Rossland Miner of March 31st : The Review, issued in Columbia. B.C.,closed publication two months ago, but this afternoon a special edition was issued at the supposed instigation of some Grand Forks parties, violently attacking the financial standing und future prospects of Columbia. Mayor McCul- lum swore out an information against Robert Nesbit, the proprietor of the paper, for defamatory libel, with the result that Nesbit is now in the cells. Prospects are very bright for Columbia at present. Naturally the citizens are incensed at the dastardly attack. It Might be Good to Remove Wrinkles, Too. It may lie news to some that persistent rubbing with oil, night and morning, will remove scars. Olive oil will answer, hut nentsfoot oil is rather more rapid in its effects. In case of bums, when the tendons are stiff and contracted, rubbing with oil will render the part affected almost as supple as before the injury. In severe cases the rubbing must be continued for an hour morning and evening. It would not be dangerous to try this prescription on the wrinkles that frequently adorn the faces of prematurely old people. Nearly one hundred men were put on at the Granite, Poorman and Athabasca mines in Nelson district Monday. Preference in all instances was given to the men who quit work. Fourteen Hundred Silly Women. Picton, Ontario, April 2.���Geo. VV. Piatt, manager of the Co-operative Employment Association of Canada was committed for trial by the police magistrate here on Saturday on the charge of using the mails with intent to defraud. The facts in the case furnish an interesting story. About a fortnight ago an advertisement appeared in the Toronto papers stating that a young lady of good appearance was wanted as a companion to a lady going to the Paris, France exhibition, with a salary of fifty dollars per month for six months and all expenses paid. Address George W. Piatt, Picton. Numerous complaints from parties answering the advertisement reaching the attorney-general's department, Inspector Rogers was detailed to look into the case. It was ascertained that no less than fourteen hundred applications had been sent in for the position, seven hundred applicants forwarding their photographs. A few days after forwarding their names the applicants received a circular which among other things, said that if a fee of $2 to cover the expense of advertising, etc., and an agreement to send twenty per cent commission out of the first month's salary were sent, the applicant would be recommended. Of the eight hundred to whom this circular was forwarded about fifty had sent the necessary two dollars, when the law stepped in. A large number of the applicants were members of well-known Toronto families. P. BURNS & CO.'S KAB*\T KAARKBT. fisJ7 anb Oysters, ��i��e anb ftresseb Poultry WEINERWURST AND SAUER KRAUT. F.

With this issue of the Record, tlie paper passes into new hands and management. Mr. H. 3. burner, who has had editorial charge of the Record for the past five months, is the new proprietor ���a gentleman who has enjoyed a long and varied experience in the newspaper business, and who is consequently well fitted for the position. The undersigned, who has conducted the Record for the last year and a half, takes this occasion to thank the people of Cascade and vicinity for their hearty and unanimous support of the Record in the past, and to request a continuence of the same under the management of Mr. Turner. All subscriptions due at this date ars payable to Mr. Turner and all advertising accounts to April 1st 1900, will be collected by the undersigned. Very Truly, W. B. Willcox. In taking upon ourself the task ���of continuing the publication of The Record from the point where its former publisher lays it down we feel that it will prove an undertaking requiring the utmost effort on our part to mainlian the excellent character and standing the paper has heretofore enjoyed. To what extent we shall succeed in this respect time will reveal. However, it shall be our constant purpose and effort to make for The Record a hearty welcome to the home circle of every household in this and surrounding communities; to serve its constituents; to do our full part through its columns to herald, guard and foster the interests of Cascade and its people, and hope to so merit approval as to be profited both socially and financially. It shall he our aim to aid in building up rather than tearing down, to promote peace and unity rather than discord and disintegration. That we have decided to locate here permanently and invest what means may be at our command is evidence of faith in the ultimate outcome with regard to the future of this promising little town. We are anxious to deserve and receive the support of every local business house. To the readers without our gates the local paper is the mirror which reflects, in a large measure, the character of the dwellers within the town from which it issues. It is a sample, as it were, sent broad cast, and should be fat and sleek, made so by liberal support, for its mission is to draw attention, capital and population. The winds of adversity should never be permitted to whistle through is skeleton for the need of that which is its due, There are a number of business houses in Cascade whose advertisements should adorn the columns of The Record, bringing profit to the advertiser, as well as solace to the heart and pocket of the publisher. Business is improving, prospects are brightening, and not one of these firms but can afford an announcement at some figure, and who would realize a benefit from it either directly or indirectly. Whether we receive their patronage or not The Record will continue to do all in its power for the general good, and especially for its patrons. ��� H. S. Turner. The Liberals had a very stormy time at their preliminary convention meeting hi Vancouver Thursday, which did not recover serenity the following day. It was reported that the police were called upon to restore order by ejecting the the combative delegates from the hall. Trouble was in relation to committee on credentials and admission of proxies. The Dominion Supply company had consignments of eggs, oranges and butter in the wreck on the S. F. & N. railway Monday. The grenier part of the 21 cars wrecked and burned with their contents contained shipments for the Boundary country. Only one person, brakeman Dunlap, was injured. Twenty-four cars fell through the Deep Creek trestle near Springalo, Wash. Mr. John Earle's salvage boom which he stretched across the Kettle river a mile or two above here, parted the other day and the escaping logs which it had detained, came down to the boom above the big dam. Some persons who saw Mr. Earle building his boom are now saying "I told you so." Cascade, from present indication* will be well supplied with good spring water. Messrs. Thomas & Handy, who are the successors to the business of Roderick McRae, have arranged to get their supply from a spring near the public road above the dam. It is splendid water and gives general satisfaction. Mrs B. Wilcox returned Wednesday from a two-weeks' visit with friends and relatives in Spokane. Mr. and Mrs Wilcox are now residing in the McLeod building. The conservative papers are very busy nowadays, telling the Liberals how bad they are and what they should do to he saved. There are between sixty and seventy stalwart Canadian voters in this neck of the woods whom candidates will do well to pay a little heed to. Mr. C. E. Race, is here organizing the Liberal-Conservative forces. He appears to be eminently fitted for the work. He is returning from a tour of the Boundary towns. By reference to our advertising columns, it will be seen that all Liberal-Conservatives in this vicinity are requested to meet at Montana hall to-night to elect a delegate to the Liberal-Conservative convention to be held in Rossland next Tuesday. Kettle River Railway BUI. Ottawa April 5.���The Canadian Pacific railway put up a red hot fight against the Kettle River Valley railway and the result was that it was knocked out iu the railway committee on a vote of 39 for to 82 against, a majority against of 43. There were 30 Liberals, six Conservatives and three Independents who voted for the hill. The Independents were McCarthy, Robertson and Puttee. LABOR TROUBLES IN ROSSLAND ENDED. All the Mines Start up. Rossland, April 5.���The negotiations looking to a settlement of the labor troubles here were brought to n satisfactory conclusion to-night. This settlement is on broad lines and is regarded as permanent. All mines resume work to-morrow and shipments will also be resumed. The settlement of the labor troubles has resulted in a general feeling of confidence being restored, and citizens of all classes are rejoicing to-night. The number of miners employed in Rossland mines before the shut-down was about 1500, and the shipments about 700 tons per day. ALL LIBERAL CONSERVATIYES!

Hans Hartell Commits Suicide. Greenwood. B. C, March 31st��� Crazed by drink and in a fit of despondency, Hans Hartell, a clerk in the Russell Hardware company's store, committed suicide at his home at 6 o'clock this evening. He had not been working for the past few days on account of drink. Shortly before 6 o'clock he went into the store, secured a revolver, which he loaded and took with him. Arriving there he went up to the bedroom, and after endeavoring to entice his wife into the room, begged her to kiss him good-bye, which in her fright, she refused to do, he deliberately shot himself in the head, falling back onto the bed and expired instantly. Hartell eame here about four months ago. Little is known of him. He was married ten months. [Hans Hartell worked in this city with Hunter Bros, for some time about a year ago and left them for the B. A. C, where he had charge of the store department but finally quitted this city a few months since for the Boundary country. He was considered while in Rossland to be one of the best hardware men that was in the Northwest. His standing was particularly high in Spokane antecedent to his coming to British Columbia. Unfortunately the trouble which led to bis death had dogged his steps for the past few years.]���Rossland Miner. The Record is informed that Rev. Jos. McCoy will occupy the pulpit of the Presbyterian church in Phoenix two or three Sundays during this month. The Pontifex Mining company, operating on Huckleberry mountain paid off its employees this week, the men coming to town to receive their wages. It made quite a movement on the streets and in the business houses in the way of increased activity. Worry is the twin sister of nervousness. Neither should enter into the daily life of any one. God in His all-wise providence, put the head of a human being on top, that all beneath it might be subservient to it. There is something wrong above the eyes in the region of the will power, when one becomes nervous in the sense of excitability. "Know thyself" is good; control thyself is better. Worry and excitement never aided any one. Any fool can get along when everything is all right, but it takes a wise man, a level headed man,, to get along and not worry nor become nervous when everything is all wrong.��� April Ladies Home Journal.

Thompson has fitted up a portable water tank and is furnishing spring water from hie ranch on the west side to the citizens of Cascade. Freight-hauling between Cascade and BoBsburg is not a thing of the past by any means. A half-dozen or so of four and six-horse trains pass through town daily. Mr. Angus Cameron went to Gladstone by Wednesday night's train, where heexpects to be remain for some time attending to his real -estate and mining interests in that town. The English store has been taking stock this week, and the manager advertises that they have found various remnants and slightly shop-soiled goods which will be sold at cost. Mr. Jno. Simpson, principal of the ���Cascade school, has had a large portrait taken of the new building and his pupils in a group. The picture is a good one, and presents -the children and building in an attractive manner. The Cascade-Bossburg stage has been making regular trips this week between the two points, and doing quite a flourishing business, Travelers from Spokane by this line can reach Cascade the same day, arriving here between 8 and 9 p. m. Now that trout-fishing is becoming good in Christina lake we may expect that great efforts will be -made to break the records���as to who caught the largest fish, and who told the biggest fish story. We venture to assert the latter will be the most difficult to break. The Cascade Water Power company's big dam being completed, the men employed in its construction are about to go on the pole line, to clear up the right of way, erect the poles and string the copper wires to the various mining camps west of here, which will benefit by the use of Cascade's magnificent water power. Mrs. Wm. Anderson entertained a few ladies, Tuesday, to meet Mrs. Joe Bye, who visited Cascade on her way to Spokane, her former home. Mr. Bye, her husband, has been employed on contract work at the Granby smelter, and now contemplates removing to Phoenix to take charge of some construction work in the mines near there. It is said of Horace Greely that he once met with great loss on his farm because of an early season and his refusal to harvest his crop till the time designated in his book had arrived. And it is said that Henry Ward Beecher on his ranch thought to save the expense of drying his fruit hy planting dried apples. This week we have noticed Mr. G. K. Stocker, at Laurel Ridge, actively engaged in agricultural pursuit. We do not say he iB planting dried apples, but when it comes to his tilling the soil there might be some question as to what it will bring forth. However, Borne day in the not distant future Laurel Ridge will doubtless be surrounded with beautiful shade trees, flowering Bhrubs and grass lawns. Joe Piane, an Italian, who was at one time employed on the development works here, has been confined to his room in the Bear house for a month or more with acute rheumatism. Wednesday Dr. Schaich telephoned to Dr. Smith of Grand Forks advising him that the patient should be taken to the hospital where he could be properly cared for. The doctor came down, and lanced Piano's leg and would have taken him to the hospital but he preferred to remain here, the physican giving it as his opinion that the patient would now rapidly recover. NOTE AND COMMENT. Geo. Webster was hanged in Spokane last Friday March 30, for the murder of Mrs. Aspland three years ago. Mitchell Bros have completed their contract for moving heavy machinery from Grand Forks to Republic, and are moving their stock to Spokane. The Bossburg Journal says there hits been a good market for potatoes thi- week, and the ranchers in that vicinity had a chance to dispose of their surplus tubers. The demand came from Boundary district campc Potatoes will probably be more easily obtained next year at this time, as several parties in this section have turned their attention to farming, and will put in a crop of spuds. It is stated that the Mine-owners' Association is preparing to take a hand in the coming election, and is forming for a united political movement. Its members will give a vigorous support to the political party which gives a positive undertaking, in the event of success at the polls, to repeal the eight-hour law, or modify its so-called obnoxious clauses. The representatives of the mines in the Nelson and Ymir districts, who have been paying $3 to miners and deducting in some cases 75 cents and in others $1 per day for board, have instructed their superintendents that after March 31st they will pay a uniform wage of $3 25 to miners, deducting $1 for board. The change will practically mean a uniform rate of wages for miners employed in the mines in EaBt Kootenay, Slocan, Nelson and Ymir, and may be taken as a distinct concession on the part of the mine managers. Keep your eye on Cascade. Wm. Hall, a Grand Forks photographer has erected a tent at the north end of the townsite building and is prepared to accommodate all who may desire to have their "profiles tuck." The pictures he made of the dam, waterfalls, bridges, etc., demonstrate his high accomplishment in the art of portraiture. Quite a number of persons are actively searching out farming lands surrounding Cascade with the view of pre-empting the same. The constant and increasing demand here for farm products and their scarcity keeps prices for such produce well up. A. D. MORRISON, CP-TO-DATE Watchmaker, Jeweller and Optician.

Monday's east hound passenger train brought the paymaster and the grip with the checks which caused a bright twinkle in tiie eyes of the employes of the road in this section. It was pay-day. Two of Cascade's citizens were on Shamrock mountain Sunday last. They went up by way of the government trail into Baker valley, from Sutherland siding. They say that with a little work at different points the trail could be made a good wagon road. However, the parties were disappointed, considering the name of the mountain��� Shamrock���at finding no Irishmen anywhere on the route. The final payment on the $70,- 000 bond on the Snowshoe mining property in Greenwood camp, of $37,800 has been made The .Snowshoe lies northeast of the Gold Drop in Greenwood camp, and is nearby to the Rawhide and Monarch. It is developed to a depth of 300 feet by shaft with levels at 70, 120 and 200 feet respectively, with considerable cross- cuting and drifting. Mr. Frank Hutchinson returned Monday from Rossland, where he had been the past two months, or .-more. The Rossland Miner of April 3rd, stated that Mr. Hutchinson had the day previous bonded 400,000 shares of stock in the Belcher Mining Company to Hon. Smith Curtis. The Belcher Mining company is operating the Elmore. The capital stock of the company consists of 1,500,000 shares, and of these Mr. Curtis already owned -')00,000,and the additional 400,000 which he has secured will give him control. Considerable work has been done on the property. It has a strong vein of gold-copper ore upon it. The quarentine at Chesaw and Meyers creek has been raised, there never having been a case of smallpox in either of the camps. And Greenwood has abandoned the silly practice of holding up the incoming passenger trains in order to scratch the arms of the passengers at a dollar a head. It is hard to understand what effect the one dollar scratch on the arm had on the germs supposed to he traveling over the country secreted in baggage and wearing apparel. We can easily grasp the idea of profit to the medico and his little scraper, but the tomfoolery practiced to secure it is what excites our risibilities.

HAY mid lillAIN constantly on hand B WILCOX, Mgr. 1 9 i I ���II M I ���-���-���-+ The Wm. Hamilton HANUFACTURINQ COMPANY, LIMITED. MINING HACHINERY PETERBOROUGH, ONT, CANADA. 9 Phoenix' Patriotic Concert, the Pioneer asserts, was a grand success. "Miners' Union hall, where the concert was held, was packed and many were standing. The new stage, curtains and electric footlights were used for the first time, and everything went off smoothly. John Riordnn, secretary of the union, had looked after the details and apple pie order was the rule." The proceeds netted over $150. Sam Handy has been suffering from an injured limb this week. While taking some barrels loaded with bottled beer from his dray a few days since, one of the barrels fell on his left leg and foot, causing severe bruises. Dr. Schaich was absent at the time, and before medical aid could be obtained, the leg was badly swollen and inflamed. For a time blood poison was feared. L. A. Hamilton, who has fqr a long time held tlie position of C. P. R. Land Commissioner, with headquarters at Winnipeg, Man., has tendered his resignation, and will, doubtless, be succeeded by Mr. Griffen, his former assistant. By taking the Cascade-Bossburg stage, it only takes one day to go to Spokane. Agent Tebo Moves Into the New Depot Every day upon the arrival of the passenger traiiiB here quite a bustling scene iB presented at the railway station. There is considerable travel over the road, and many passengers get off and on the trains, while quite an army of spectators gather to see and hear the traveling public. Mr. F. E. Tebo this week has been moving into the new depot building, which seems to be amply capacious and convenient for all requirements at present, and no doubt the affable and accommodating agent fully enjoyB and appreciates the improved conditions. The former little depot building will be retained for the use of Roadmaster Johnston. D. D. FERGUSON,. Plans Drawn and Estimates Furnished] Doors, Sash and all Kinds of Glass. CASCADE CITY, BRITISH COLUMBIA Cascade Liberal Association. The Liberals of Cascade met Tuesday and organized as the "Cascade Liberal Association." Mr. D. D. Ferguson was elected president, R. E. Darrow and A. H. Thompson vice-presidents, and Mr. Donald Dunbar, secretary. On motion, Hon. Smith Curtis was chosen as delegate to represent the Liberals of this vicinity at the Liberal convention held at Vancouver last Thursday. It was demonstrated by resolution that the association was unanimously in favor of conducting the coming campaign on party lines. 1-
