4j<~ f i 1? THE CASCADE RECORD Published in the Interests of the Boundary and Christina Like Milling Districts Vol. I. CASCADE, B. C, SEPTEMBER 9, 1899. No. 44. HAS FAITH IN CHRISTINA t P. Rathbone, Noted Mhipg Engineer, Has Thorooghly Investigated. GIVES RECORD READERS HIS VIEWS While He Is Conservative la Statements, Yet He Believes tblt Section Will Have Some Oireat Mines. For the last two or three weeks Edgar P. Rathbone, the noted mining engineer of the B, C. Mercantile & Mining Syndicate, of Cascade, who came here from England for that-express purpose, has been making an exhaustive examination of the ore bodies of the camps in the Christina lake district. He has taken; hiaE ftwnf time5 for this and gathered his, own samples, which has been tested .in the syndicates' own laboratory'-ih Cascade. /The result of this careful examination is distinctly favorable to this section. He believes, however, tKat much depends on work, hard, honest, well-directed, intelligent work on the part of the prospector, or development company. In talking with a Record representative Mr. Rathbone sniij: '"'. Will be Some Great Mums. '���My...special object in visiting the mining properties in the Christina lake district was to ascertain if there was sufficient evidence of the existence of payable veins or ore bodies, snch as would warrant the permanent and steady progressive exKence of such * a town as Cascade City, and I may at once say, that I consider it would be very bad luck, indeed, if, when some more serious work is carried out, there should not be discovered at least one or two properties which will be worked finally on an industrial paying basis. "The whole country is highly mineralized, hut it still remains to be seen whether sufficiently high values will be maintained to pay all working expenses of say some $15 or $20 and leave a reasonable margin of profit. I have personally great confidence in the future of. the district; and most certainly c&n recommend capitalists.to investigate into its merits, hut under present conditions would not advise anyone to pay too highly for such a privilege. #'I consider that a well organised exploration company might do well, especially if, with an efficient staff and laboratory arrangements, it were to systematically test a number of claims, and thus prove up some points where good payable and permanent ore chutes existed. Under present conditions, with such an immense area to investigate, one cannot help feeling that it is left very much to chance, that i* for mere prospectors to stumble on the rieht spot, whereas with capital and organisation, much of this wild and uneconomic work could he avoided. I would espec ially recommend that more attention be paid to the probable existence of large ore bodies on contact planes between the dolomite or magnesian limestone formation and igneous rocks inhinding, since in other mining districts it is precisely under similar conditions that some of the greatest discoveries have heen made, notably in Colorado/' Opinion Is Conservative. It should be remembered that Mr. Rathbone is an exceedingly conservative engineer, and is not disposed to take chances. His reputation and standing in his profession is ample proof of this. He does not specify the. localities he thinks best of, for obvious reason*, but particularly likes, the formation along Christina lake, and has no doubt but that it will become in time the scene of great industrial activity from a mining standpoint. It is more than probable, though he does not give it out for publication, that additional capi- tal will be introduced shortly as a direct result of his visit and investigation. If this is done���as the Record believes it will be-1- some of the best mines in British Columbia will be found at t|e very doors of Cascade. > ' Columbia Arson Caie. �� " ��� Last Saturday's hearing of the Colombia irrno^ cas��; hieldr beter* Justice Rochussen at Columbia, was held behind closed doors, but a full account appeared in the local paper nevertheless. It showed that the burning of the Hotel Columbia was evidently done by design.. Mullen, Royce and Cameron were mixed up in the crime, for the perpetration of which the sum of $200 was paid. The question is, who furnished the money? Rumor has persistently associated the name of ex-Mayor John Manley, of Grand Forks, in the case, hut so far there has been nothing to justify it brought out. An adjourned hearing is being held today, but no particulars are obtainable, further than that no special sensations had come out up to last night. Increasing tbe Sawmill Capacity. . John Earle, proprietor of theCas cade sawmill, has ordered a sticker attachment for his mill. The new. piece of machinery will come from Portland and is expected here in a few days. On its arrival the mill will he in shape to turn out anything in the shape of mouldings. Lately the lath machine. has been kept busy. This week Mr. Earle shipped a couple of cars of timber by rail to Grand Forks, hut the rate is so. high that he will proba bly employ teams in future. Mrs. Donald McLeod gave an enjoyable afternoon tea on Thursday to a number of ladies. Mr. Hewitt Bostock's attention is respectfully called to the fact that the mail from Grand Forks to Cascade, due here Thursday morning, did not reach our postoffice till 24 hours later. TRAINS ON MONDAY WEEK Passengers Will be Brought ii Every Other Day. SERVICE THREE TIMES PER WEEK Definite Announcement by Mr Tye that Reg* alar Traffic Will be Inauf anted on September 1Mb. Last week's Record .stated that passenger trains would be running on the new railway into the Boundary in two weeks. This is literally true, and was corroborated by Assistant Chief Engineer Sullivan and Superintendent of Construction Jack Stewart this morning. The following from Chief Engineer Tye telle the story: "We will take over the road from Robson to Grand Forks from the contractors some day next week, and run, the first passenger train on Monday, the 18th.' We will run from Robson to Grand Forks on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, .and from Grand Forks to Robson on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Will make connections with Crow's Nest Pass and Rossland trains. Time table to .foiiow;':,, | ... , f. :������; . This means, as stated in the last issue of the Record,that trains will leave Rossland and Nelson about 7 a. m., and on alternate days depart from Grand Forks also in the morning. The Rossland Record of Thursday says that the rate from Rossland to Cascade City is $5.95, and $6.95 to Grand Forks, but it is probable that passengers will have to re-purchase tickets at Robson on account of the road not being turned over to the traffic department yet. Next week some time the C. P. R. inspectors will go over the road as far as it is completed, after which it will be turned over to the operating department. . There has heen rumor of an excu.roion of Rossland and Nelson business men to the Boundary on the first passenger train, but this will be deferred, as the requisite rolling stock is not yet at hand. Rambles Prom tbe Ralls. By tonight the track will be down at a point four miles beyond Columbia. There has been a shortage of telegraph poles this week, greatly delaying that part of work. The wire will probably reach Grand Forks some time next week. Fifteen passengers dime in yesterday in a box car, and have no wish to repeat the experience un less they wear cast iron breeches with cushion attachments. The track-layers crossed the hridge at Grand Forks last Sunday afternoon. Columbia citisens pro vided a small spread for the work men, which was duly appreciated. CHRISTINA MINERAL FLOAT. Frank Hutchinson was in town from the Dover, on McRae creek, adjoining the Chamberlain, where he is doing assessment work. Frank E. Starkey came in from Spokane Thursday and made a trip to the Victoria, returning today. Bunk houses for winter quarters are to be built at once. A. P. Hunter, of Rossland, is preparing a map of the Burnt Basin and Norway mountain, that should prove exceedingly useful to those interested in those camps. J. H. Inkster, manager of the Pontifex group, on Huckleberry mountain, came in from Rossland Wednesday and went to the property, where development is to be continued all winter! The Agitator, near the north- side sawmill, almost on the Cascade townsite, owned by Alex. McDonald, is being worked with good results. The ledge is 45 feet wide, and assays well. Jim Cameron and Victor Monnier returned from Gladstone today with some magflificient samples from the Grissly Bear claim. Chunks of free gold are readily 'seen in it. The ledge is 18 inches jwide., Charles Willarson was down from the Mystery, in. the Burnt Basin, this week. He says No. 1 tohnelTsIn 1*35"feet; No,'3 is In 116 feet and work will soon he started on No. 3 tunnel. He reports the property as looking well. WORK ON THE DAI SITE Foreman Simmons aid a Force of la Resumed Last Monday. D. P. Barber Awarded Contract for Cleariig Right of Way for Pole Line, and Has Began Work. Work began in earnest last Monday once more on the Cascade Water, Power & Light Co.'s plant. Foreman Simmons who had just returned from the east, put a force at work on the big dam, although the water is still pretty high. Supt. Wm. Anderson has let a contract to D. D. Ferguson for his cottage, which will cost about $2,- 000. To make room for it the company's office has been moved bark a short distance. Work haB commenced on the excavation for the residence, which will command a view of the power station site and river. D. P. Barber has secured the contract for clearing the right of way for five miles of pole line from Phoenix towards Cascade, and has already gone to the ground .to begin operations, where he will employ 20 men. The width of the clearing is 182 feet, wide enough for a double line of poles. There are about 80 acres to be cleared, and it is. understood that the contract price is above $8,000. 2 THE CASCADE RECORD September S, UBS - SB 3T IN AND AROUND CASCADE. N. [McLellan, the feed, man, is opening up a warehouse at Columbia. George K. Stocker, the townsite agent, took a^business trip toJ3po- kane this week. August Reischl has fitted up a number of rooms for lodgers ever his popular Queen restaurant. T. A. Ingram, the Calgary flour agent, says the demand is steadily increasing for his company's choice products. Greenwood haB purchased a lot of fire fighting supplies. After four hotelB burned down, it was about time. Quite a number of lots have been disposed of in the last 10 days at Eholt, and half a dosen buildings are being erected. The Cascade Sawmill Co. is now busy getting out timber for the new school house and for Supt. Anderson's residence. Gus. Jackson, who is erecting a large hotel at Phoenix, was in town Wednesday He also has hotels at RosBland and Creston. Dr. Geo. C. Gordon, formerly of Cascade, is reported as being temporarily on the contractors' medical staff at the long tunnel. Since the season opened last week many parties of hunters have had good success, and have bagged good lots of duck and grouse near Christina lake. H. Bunting, father of Ernest Bunting, of the B. C. store, well known in Cascade, has received the contract for building the Greenwood school house. In a late issue, of the B. C. Gazette appears the appointment of W. G. McMynn, of Midway, as Registrar of the county court of Yale, to be holden at Greenwood. The Corbin telegraph line is expected to be in Greenwood in 80 days. It will be built to thai point from Republic, and thence to Marcus, via Grand Forks and Cascade* At Monday flight's raffle, the new clinker built row boat was won by Fred Gribi, who immediately sold it to Chas. Sandner, who lives at the north end of Christina lake. At a meeting of the building committee of the Presbyterian church, held this week, it was decided to plaster the hew edifice, and seat it with pews. Work will now be pushed to completion. Bant Basin News. Mr. A, P. Hunter returned yesterday from the Burnt Basin, where he went to look over the Jackbtraw group, which is under development, and in which he is interested. He stateB that a good deal of active work is being prosecuted in the Basin, arid the ledges of that section show up well as depth is gained. The Jackstraw ledge has been discovered on the Tammany Fraction and on the Lindsay, on both of which claims it shows good surface ore. On the Unexpected an-iron ledge has been encountered. Ihe Halifax and Jenny Lind are giving splendid results, and the Mother Lode and John Bull continue to improve. Mr. Hunter says the Burnt Basin is going to be a valuable camp.��� Rossland Miner.

Address,- . Tflf CASCADE RECORD, CASCADE, B. C. i^^^mmtm r* September 9, 1890 THE CASCADE RECORD OANQ OF ITALIANS USE KNIVES. Bat Fortunately No One Wm Damaged Be. yond Repair. Lust Monday night Officer Darraugh gathered in a number of Italians who got mixed up in a cutting scrape near the railway bridge, over the gorge. Incidentally, in the melee, two or three of them were chopped up considerably, necessitating several stitches by the contractors' surgeon It appears that these sons of sunny Italy, some of whom bear the euohonious titles of Vestione Gallo, Frank Scalzo, S. Piccolo, Joe Garcia, etc., etc., were railway laborers, and had come down from the camp, a few miles west of town, to do some trading. On the return they got into a quarrel as to the wisdom of putting the hand car on the track when a train was expected at any minute. Not agreeing, a general carving match followed, with the result as above stated. Wednesday evening Justice of the Peace Rochussen heard the case and one of the men was fined $50. Boat Race on the Lake. Considerable interest is being taken in the boat race, which is scheduled to take place on the lake tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. The contestants are Frank Asprey and Charles Sandner, both of whom reside on the lake, and both of whom are confident of winning. The race is for $25 a side, but considerable money has been put up by friends of the respective contestants on the result. The course is straightaway for six miles, from the foot, of the lake to English Point. The steamer Myrtle B. will be on hand to take excursionists and accompany the oarsmpn to the finish, and from the interest, being taken there will be a good many witnesses. LOCAL AND GENERAL. It is estimated that $100,000 will be spent on the Mother Lode smelter, to be built at Greenwood. G. D. Minty of Winnipeg, assistant solicitor of the C. P. R., wns visiting Cascade today for the first time. The big compressor plant for the Rathmullen, on the north fork of Kettle river, is being placed in position. Ja^es D'Arcy, of Cascade, who has heen successfully prospecting in the Similkameen this summer, is expected back in a few days. The deputy sheriffs sale of the Gaine & Roy stock, which was to have taken place yesterday, has heen postponed for a week. The case will probably be fought out in the courts. Next Thursday afternoon the Ladies' Aid will hold a meeting at the residence of Mrs. George K. Stocker, when refreshments will be served. The ladies of the town are oordially invited. Notice.

Francis & Milne Cascade Thomas Walker Casoade Casoade Drug Co Cascade BEAUTIFULLY WHITEWASHED. Sometime since the Record called attention to the unnecessarily poor mail service generally prevalent in the Boundary country, and especially at Cascade. Hewitt Bostock, M. P., promised to look into the matter and have it rectified if possible. The following, received this week by the publisher of the Record, shows that his investigation has not been thorough and that we can expect no improvement: Victoria, B.C., 2d Sept., 1899. Dear Sir:���I have gone into the matter of your mail service at Cascade and find that the mail bag containing the mails from Rossland to Cascade was over carried on three occasions and the bag con taining the U. S. mail was over carried on one occasion. With regard to the mail service and the handling of postal matters in the Boundary creek country beyond Cascade I understand that it is as satisfactory as a service of this kind can be made. Yours truly, Hewitt Bostock. Mr. Bostock in the above states only a part���a small part���of the facts. A dozen or a hundred citizens here can and will testify that scarcely a week has passed in the last three months that mail bags were not carried through when destined for Cascade. If the postal department records do not show it, the case is so much the worse. Postmasters all through the country know of this only too well, to say nothing of numberless business men, who have felt the inconvenience entailed. It is also a pretty commentary on our Canadian postal system to have our member in parliament admit, evidently after a conference with Inspectors Dorman and McLeod, that the present poor system "is as satisfactory as a service of this kind can be had." It is no palliation or excuse to state that mails are likely to begin coming in by rail shortly. Mr. Bostock has beautifully whitewashed the whole matter, and gives not one atom of satisfaction for a condition of things in postal matters that is absolutely inexcusable. There is another Dominion election coming, and voters have a way of bearing these things in mind. NOTE AND COMMENT. Since W. K. Esling took hold of the Rossland Record a week ago, it has shown a vast improvement. Automobiles are gradually getting westward, but none have been seen on the streets of Cascade yet. It is now given out that Jim Hill will builil from Wilbur into Republic this fall. If this proves true, the camp iB to be congratulated. ��� An Indiana editor publishes the names of delinquent subscribers, with brief biographies. It ought to make interesting reading���for the other fellows. Mr. Rathbone thinks there is no reason why development should not reveal another LeRoi on the Christina lake slope. He is not alone in that opinion. The Nelson Tribune does not seem to admire the stylo of the Greenwood Miner. The latter ably-edited journal comes back with a dignified retort courteous. Both are excellent news vendors. The opposition press asserts that the political situation is becoming intolerable, while the government organs, for the most part, think everythingis serene. One can take his choice. The chances are that a change is in sight. No reduction has yet been made in our railway freight rates���"construction rates" they are called by courtesy. If the taking over of the line by the C. P. R. will bring relief to our merchants, it is to be hoped that it will come soon, and not be deferred till the steel is laid to Midway. War in the Transvaal grows more likely daily. A resident of the South African Kepublic for several years, recently in Cascade, asserts that enduring and satisfactory peace will not come till the Boers have been soundly whipped. They will surely receive the chastisement. It must be refreshing to the readers of Nelson and Rossland dailies to read dispatches that appeared the previous day in the Spokesman-Review. This is the press service furnished by the C. P. R. telegraph people, and is away behind the times. No wonder the Kootenay dailies "kick." Kamloops has been suggested by the Standard, of that town, as a good place for an opposition convention, and a circular letter has been issued to that effect. It looks now as though the Semlin government would have a strong organization to fight at the next election, which is claimed to be not far off. still silent as the tomb���most of the miners having migrated. Step" should be taken to compromise on the eight-hour proposition. The mines do not suffer by the present shut-down, nor do the miner-, for they move to other parts, but business interests are pretty badly stagnated. Edgar P. Rathbone, the mining engineer, has been looking over the mineral showings in the (Uiris- tinu lake mining camps for a couple of weeks, and his impressions, which will be found on another page, should be decidedly encouraging to holders of promising claims hereabouts. Mr. Rathbone's opinion is worth having, be it noted, as he recommended the purchase of the LeRoi for $3,000,000. Killed In Kimberly Camp A terrible accident, with immediately fatal results, occurred at Kimberly camp last Saturday evening, just as the men on tbe Vancouver^ owned by James Sutherland and J. \V. Nelson, of Greenwood, were going off shift. A miner named David Condon hsd lighted the fuse for five shots in the bottom of the shaft, some 30 feet deep, aud climbed the ladder to the top, when he missed a rung of the ladder or slipped and fell to the bottom. Half a minute later the five shots went off, and death was instantaneous. His neck was broken, probably by the fall, his jaw broken, and other injuries had been sustained. It is remarkable that he was not shattered to pieces by the rock explosion. No inquest was deemed necessary. Condon was 42, yearB old and single, and has worked for some time in the camps about Greenwood. North Side Sawmill Sold. Last "Wednesday V. Monnier sold the E. G. Thomason & Co. sawmill, on the north side, to D. Bailey, of Columbia, the negotiations being conducted by Major W. H. Cooper. It is understood thot the consideration was $3,000. The mill has been taken down and is now being set up at a point near Gilpin's ranch, on Kettle river, near the railway. The mill will be used to get out lumber for use in Columbia, where that article is now a scarce commodity. The Slocan, for the most part, is John Dorsey, formerly of the Hotel Gladstone, is now located at Hartford Junction, where he has nut up a commodious hotel called the Hartford. The point is where the Phoenix and Winnipeg spurs branch off, and consequently all travel to the camps hy rail must go via Hartford. Mr. Dorsey's card will be found in another column.

Rathbone, the mining engineer of the B. C. Syndicate, of Cascade, who has been spending a couple of weeks inspecting the mineral showings of Christina lake camps, left yesterday for Rossland. He will make careful examinations of the East LeRoi, West LeRoi and Columbia-Kootenay mines at Rossland for the directors of the British America Corporation, who expected to form separate companies for the development of these claims. He will probably return to Cascade before returning to London, and possibly take a look at the Similkameen country. One of the object* of Mr. Rath- bone's vihit here at this time was to ascertain, now that the railway building activity is practically over, by which every town in the Boundary country was more or less benefited, whether the mineral possibilities were such as to warrant a continuance of the extensive mercantile operations now being carried on. Mr. Rathbone informs the Record that he has already heartily recommended to his co-directors tn continue the present establishments here, but also to operate on an even more extended manner, both in merchandising and mining. Coming from such a source, this is a tribute to the solid hacking which this city and district has in its hills of wealth. In regard to the letter of Hewitt Bostock, appearing in another column, and the editorial comment thereon, it should be stated that a cash penalty has finally been arranged to be imposed on stage companies that do not deliver mails as per contract. This should have been done long, long ago. Had it been so adjusted, it is pretty certain that most of the causes of complaint would have disappeared before this. As it is, the service is beginning to be a trifle more satisfactory in the matter referred to. May it continue till all mails come in by- way of the new railway. : At the Spokane Industrial Exposition this yetir the mineral ex.- h|bits will be given the 'place of honor. They will not be put off-in a; far-away corner as at previous friiit fairs'* but this year the management is making tho mineral department one of the strongest attractions at the big show. Visitors who enter the tent <>n opening day, the 3rd of October, will, first be greeted by the mining exhibit of, all the mining camps of the northwest The entrance to the building will he on Main avenue atj the postoffice corner, on the haime location as heretofore.

Billy -Russell is putting up a hotel at Phoenix, his partner being Chas. Cumings of Grand Forks. The provincial government is spending $350 in fencing the Midway school grounds, and in supplying desks, etc. Miss Marietta La Dell, the charming elocutionist, who delighted audiences in the Boundary a few weeks ago, is expected to make another trip to this section soon. J. L. Scardorf, of Camp McKinney, was tried before Gold Commissioner C. A. R. Lambley, for importing tobacco without reporting same to the custom hause. He pleaded guilty and was fined $50. Redfield & Wilson, who conducted a sawmill at Christina lake last winter and later moved it to the north fork of Kettle river, have Bold the plant to McAlpineA Suck- smith, arid dissolved partnership. When passenger trains begin running on the new line, it is said that the stage lines will still run between Cascade and Bossburg. There should be considerable business for them in travel from the states. A petition is in circulation at Keremeos "praying for an improvement in the long-neglected mail service." Hope there will be better luck than in Cascade. Perhaps Mr. Bostock can do something for Keremeos. The Hotel Columbia arson ca��e has created no end of suppressed excitement in both Grand Forks and Columbia, and it appears as though some one would have the opportunity of spending 14 years in the provincial penitentiary. E. J. Coyle, western passenger agent of the C. P. R. at Vancouver, and W. T. Anderson, of Nelson, traveling passenger agent, were in Cascade this week, arranging details for the commencing of passenger traffic over the new railroad, Next Tuesday a gathering of Kootenay Presbytery, which includes Yale, will be held at Nelson* It iB the first regular meeting of that new organisation, and general business will be transacted. Rev. Joseph McCoy, of Cascade, expects to attend. Greenwood is to have a custom house, with Hugh McCutcheon, formerly of Kamloops and Nakusp, as collector. He will also be inland revenue officer, in place of A. K. Stewart, who lately sent in his resignation. Mr. Stewart, who owns a ranch on Christina lake, expects to spend a couple of months recuperating before going into active business again. The Mackintosh syndicate has purchased from R. A. Brown, of Grand Forks, the Sunset mine, on Copper mountain, near the Similkameen river. Mr. Brown located the Sunset in 1892. It has a shaft 43 feet deep which.exposes a solid body of high grade copper ore. It is claimed to be the greatest copper prospect in the country. The consideration is $40,000, and the cash has been paid over. 6 THE CASCADE RECORD September 9, 1899 BOTH SIDES OF THE LINE Notes of a Trip to Some of the Best Camps. BY A CONSERVATIVE MINING MAN Republic, Toroda, Sheridan, Boole, Chesaw, Bolster, Oro, Camp McKinney, Rock Creek, Midway and Nelson, Wash. Morris McCarty, of Bossburg, who has extensive interests in this section; was in Cascade last Saturday on a return trip from a leisurly visit of inspection to a large number of mining camps on both sides of the international boundary line. He is a close observer, and feels well pleased with his two weeks tour, believing that, beyond a doubt, in the district referred to there are some of the greatest mineral claims on the entire Pacific slope. Traveling over the now much- advertised Kettle Falls route to Republic, the best of these properties, which are now well known to the world, were visited, and the belief confirmed that there will soon be some great ore producers in addition to the famous Republic. Going in a northwesterly direction 12 miles, Sheridan camp was reached, and the Zala M., owned largely by Ross Thompson and Col. Topping, was an object of unusual interest, and gave substantial evidence of being all that was claimed for it. Toroda City, another promising camp, six miles west of Sheridan, was next reached, and north of this, also on Toroda creek, was Bodie, where the formation is largely bluish quartz, and although the values cannot be seen, they are there just the same. Fro Bodie the route was to the new booming towns of Bolster and Chesaw, close together, on Meyert> creek, and only a couple of miles from the boundary line. Here again is found the bluish quartz, carrying good values. The Crystal Butte has had a 10-stamp mill running on free gold ore about three weeks', the vein being eight inches wide, and indications are exceedingly. favorable. The Review is one of the best and has a 400-foot tunnel. The War Eagle is working a small force in a 70- foot shaft. The Wisconsin, Copper Queen and Mammoth are also good, having copper ore like that of Greenwood camp Chesaw and Bolster are rivals, and are growing fast. They are due south of Camp McKinney. The next stop was at Oro, 22 miles west from Chesaw. It is a dull town, but three miles northwest iB the 10-stamp mill of the Okanogan Free Gold Mines, which is running steadily with good results. The country generally here is greatly broken up. Anarchist mountain is to tbe northeast of Oro, and lies on both Hides of the boundary line. Immense surface showings were seen, but up to the present little work has been done. Some splendid farming country is found in the valleys, yielding prolific crops. In another ten miles Camp McKinney, one of our oldest mining camps, was reached. When it is remembered that 200 men are at work in this camp, a faint idea of the development going on, ie obtained. The granite is running 5 stamps, the Cariboo 20 stamps, a mill is being installed on the Waterloo, and the Fontenoy and Minnehaha will also soon have stamp mill. A most favorable impression was had of the work being done, and there seems to be no doubt but that this will be a great camp. From Camp McKinney to Rock creek is 12 miles and thence to Midway 15 miles. The latter place is rather qtiiet, but is building somewhat, and hoping great things from being the temporary terminus of the new railway line. From Midway the road swings around into the reservation again, some 25 miles to Nelson, Wash., the name of which has heen changed to Danville. Near Nelson on LaFleur mountain several good properties are working. The British American Corporation ha* seven men on the Copper Queen and Comstock. Two shifts are employed on the Brimstone, the shuft being in 200 feet, and good copper ore being found. From Nelson to Cascade is -about 18 miles./ NEW MAP... OP THE Christina Lake Mining Camps.

TOOK IN TWO SMELTER SITES Grand Forks, Phoenix and Greenwood are all Lively���Citizens Have (treat Con* lldence. ThiB week a Record man, on the hurricane deck of a nimble cayuse, visited a number of the lively Boundary towns, on one of his periodical visits. Of course, going west from Cascade, the first stop was at the town now being made famous by Mr. Graves'smelter pro- ject. A visit to the site of this enterprise showed about a hundred men to work, the foundations of most of the buildings having been made, and activity prevailing at the dam Bite and on the long flume. Thus far the brick making is an acknowledged failure, and it is the intention to dispose of the poor brick locally and burn better kiln?. Grand Forks is growing rapidly, although the summer dullness is said to be felt in trade. New buildings are going up all over town and a general air of prosperity prevails. The location of the smelter at that point has had a crystallizing effect. There is still talk of a daily paper there by Eber C. Smith, of Rossland, but it is said that he will not have the first daily in the field It is generally admitted, however, that the town is not large enough to support one daily permanently. la Orowlof Phoenix. After toiling up the 15 mile hill in a drizzling rain the hurtling town of Pheonix was reached, firRt passing the snorting engines at work ou the Winnipeg, Golden Orown and Snowshoe properties. Phoenix is, aR expected, a typical mining town, situated as it is in the. heart of the Boundary mines, being literally surrounded hy snch famous mines as the Old Ironsides, Knob Hill, Brooklyn, Stemwinder, etc. At present there is but one hotel, Hotel Phoenix, that is running now. Five others are building or excavating. Several Greenwood concerns have branches there, including the Hunter-Kendrick Co., and Russell Hardware Co., with others preparing to build. A restaurant, three hurher shops, laundry, liverv stable, shoe shop and a number of other concerns are already dnine business, with others promising to come in. The town has a nnstoffice, church services, a public school, a newspaper about to start and other modern conveniences. At present Phoenix is pretty well spread out, as the Old Ironsides pmpertv in on one side, the Rumbflraer tfayt in the center snd tbe New York property on the otbpr. At nres��nt the chief activity is bround Mr. Rumberger's urnnerty, where the postoffice is located, and which he is rapidly TRttintr ready to place on the mar- Vet, having at. last acquired the utirface rights. The railway branch is building into tbe town, about 250 miners are now employed in the adjacent properties, and the town is destined to become an important point. Boundary Creek Metropolis. Greenwood is undoubtedly the most important town in the Boundary creek country, and its citizens have sublime faith in its continued supremacy. The definite location of the Mother Lode smelter close to the town will be of great benefit to the place, and surveys have already begun for the purpose of starting work under Paul Johnson, the superintendent. There is an evidence of solidarity and permanence about Greenwood that is pleasing to the casual visitor. Surrounded as it is by many rich mining camps, with large reduction works at its doors, it cannot fail to hold its own for years to come, and the faith of its people in its future seems well grounded. The trip was an interesting one, and gave an idea of the importance that Boundary camps���one and all���are assuming in the world of minim. The heritage thatcitizens of thi<> section have in the metalliferous hills is but just beginning to be made known. Its future cannot fail to show greater and even more enduring prosperity.

BOUNDARY NINES ��� ��� Brief Bits Prom Many Camps. wmmmmmmmm An ore body nine feet wide has recently been encountered on the Pathfinder mine. It runs about $15 in gold and copper. The Trail smelter iB reported to have bought many thousand tons of B. C. mine ore al $27.60 per ton. The contract runs into big figures. The 35-foot tunnel on the Royal Canadian group, on the north fork of Kettle river, will be extended 65 feet further, when crosscuttihg will begin. A tunnel is to be driven 250 feet on the Bonanza, in Knight's camp, to tap the ledge at 150 feet depth. The assays from the ledge give $31 in gold and copper. Randolph Stuart has acquired from W. G. McMynn, of Midway, his interest in the Oalumet-Hecla group, adjoining' the Winnipeg, thus obtaining a controlling interest. The Republic mine management has secured a rate of $5 per ton for hauling ore from the mine to the railway at Grand Forks. Formerly $25 per ton to Marcus was paid. What is said to be coal has been located on the Laurier claim, on the north fork of Kettle river, by Robert Clark. Jay P. Graves, of the Granby smelter, has secured a half interest, and development will be at once started. W. A. Carlyle, superintendent of the LeRoi and other B. A. C. properties at Rossland, has been offered a salary of 5,000 pounds sterling to act as superintendent of the Rio Tinto mines in Spain. His salary is now $8,000 per year, and he will probably accept the new offer. Duncan McRae, of Rossland, has made arrangements to ship about 20,000 pounds of Gold Bug ore out of the shaft to the Trail smelter. Owing to the rich character of the vein the ore is being sacked as it comes out, and it is anticipated that the values are sufficient to pay for the cost of development as it proceeds. The new mining camp on the east fork of the north fork of Kettle river has been named Franklin camp. It is north, of Christina lake, and the formation is diorite, porphyry, quartzite and lime and some white granite. All kinds of ore can be found. Frank McFar- land is the father of the camp, which is located 60 miles from Grand Forks. It is thought to be a good camp. Palace giucry #arn 1 Up to Date livery.
