Near the westerly border of the Nettie L claim of the Porter Idaho company's holdings, the management recently located a very important ore body, said by those who have seen it to be about three feet wide, of practically solid galena ore, carrying high values in silver and lead. This ore body is said to be the MELLEN IN CHARGE OF RIVERSIDE MINE R.G.Mellen, well known min ing engineer, who has been identified with developments in this district for the past four years, has recently taken charge of the \ Riverside mine, about 7 miles up| Salmon river from Hyder. The | crew employed has been increased to more than 20 men. The 50-ton mill is now operating to capacity on two shifts and shipments of concentrates are being made regularly. Work recently done on the surface with a view to future development, has resulted in uncovering important outcrops of Rood milling-grade ore which materially improves the prospects of the property.

Their mission was to inspect local road matters, and the first-hand information they obtain should result in great good to the Salmon and Texas sections on the Alaskan side. Examines Silver Bell E. G. Riebe of Seattle, mining engineer for the Silver Bell Mining Company, has spent a week on the company's property which adjoins the Silverado on the south, and left Sunday for Juneau, Alaska, where he is directing some heavy mining operations. There will be a story about the Silver Bell next week. Dunwell Increases Capital The motion introduced at the meeting of Dunwell Mines Co. in Victoria on the 23d was passed unanimously. This motion provides for increasing the capital of the company to $1,000,000 and the immediate sale of 140,000 shares to the present shareholders at 50c. per share, netting the company an additional $70,000 for carrying out work not originally planned; 160,000 shares will be placed in the treasury. A. H. Jarman, prominent San Francisco lawyer, visited Stewart this week.

Failing to sell it to the Porter Idaho, Mr Mehlfeld, who had to go south wtth his wife, who was very ill at that time, made a deal for the ground with Fred Jancowski and associates, who added other ground to it and recently had the whole surveyed. Whether the ore body now being worked on is a lense or not, has not yet been determined but the fact that the Porter Idaho is working on the same thing 500 feet distant, and that it has been traced for several hundred feet above the present workings, would indicate that they have a very valuable vein. work driving in on the vein and sacking ore for shipment as they go. As a result of this strike Jack Rennie, who has the packing contract, has enlarged his pack train and is bringing down about 20 tons per week. Another shipment of 20 tons of ore from this property went south on the Prince Rupert last Sunday bound for the Trail smelter, and similar shipments will be made each week until snow forces a suspension of packing. It is estimated that there are approximately 200 tons of this ore in sight that can be mined without the use of powder. Specimens brought into town are among the best ever seen here, showing fine-grained galena liberrlly sprinkled with ruby silvtr, with freibergite and silver bromides. Native silver is also prevalent. SAMUEL WALL FATALLY HURT Struck by a runaway bucket of concentrates in the Premier tram angle station at Nine-mile, better known as Angle 3. Sam Wall, who was in charge of the station, was fatally injured, The accident occurred at 3 o'clock last Wednesday afternoon and the victim died at 5 o'clock. He was injured about the right side and in the head, the base of his skull being fractured. Deceaseed, who had a host of friends in British Columbia and Alaska, was born in Norway 42 years ago, and came to this north coast as quite a young man. He was a member of the Pioneers of Alaska and the Moose Lodge. At the time of going to press unsuccessful efforts have been made to locate relatives of the late Mr Wall through friends his employment card states reside in Seattle, and as a result it has been decided to hold the funeral services in Hyder at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon, Sept. 26, under the auspices of the Lodge. ORE ASSAYS NEffl $3,000 Sensational Strike Made in Marmot River Section- Ore Is of Free Milling Gold Type RUSH COLUMBIA SUIT DISMISSED Returns From Peru L. Jessen, managing director of Boyles Bros. Limited, diamond drill contractors, has returned from Peru, where he spent six months in connection with his company's operations on the property of the' Northern Peru Mining and Smelting Co. Mr Jessen has given the News a fascinating account of his visit, for which we hope to find room in these columns next week. B.N.Sharp, prominent mining engineer of Spokane, visited the Marmot section this week. Pete Ober, a well known miner, returned Sunday from the Bulkley valley, where he has a ranch. J. O. Lyon and family have moved ever from Hyder and are occupying Angus McLeod's residence on 9th street. Mrs J. Campbell and daughters Cherry and May, left Sunday Vancouver���Because the two plaintiffs in a suit for $600,000 damages were not present in court aad because none of the ten defendants were ever served with copies of writ taken out against them Mr. Justice McDonald in the Supreme Court dismissed the action. W.W.Rush of Stewart and Arthur R-\rjt.of Oliver brought the suit against defendants in a charge which states that their actions prevented the partners obtaining money with which to develop their mine property in the Portland Canal district. The defendants include the American Mining and Smelting Company of Tacoma, Attorney General Manson, and preminent business men of Vancouver, Victoria and Seattle. Mr Manson is named because it is alleged he knew of a fraud which they charge was committed but failed to take action to end it. "This looks like abuse of the process of the courts," said His Lordship in handing dowh his decision. A sensational gold strike was recently made on the south fork of Marmot river bv H. C. and Charles Magee. An assay return shown the News this week gave values of 139,96 ounces in gold, valued at $2'.99.20, with $17 in silver, or a total value of $2816.20 per ton. This property, now consisting of six claims, is situated on the high ridge on the south side of Marmot river and north side of Bulldog creek about opposite the Marmot Metals and Patricia properties. The ore from which these values were obtained is a narrow quartz vein traceable for a considerable distance and averaging in width from two to four inches. This property, which is owned by H.C.Magee of Stewart and Moose Dr. McKechnie of Vancouver, and associates, is situated east of and adjoining that located last fall by Chas. Magee and Ed Casey, on which was found free milling quartz assaying $110 in gold. Thirteen claims in all have been located, and it is reported that the strike has started quite a stampede of stakers for that section. This is the second gold strike made this season on the south fork of Marmot river, the other being made by W.R.Harner and Homer Ficklin to the east of the one now reported. TO CALL MEETING ON INCORPORATION Considerable routine business was dealt with at the Board of Trade meeting Tuesday evening. Among matters coming up for discussion was incorporation under the Village Act, which resulted in a decision to call a public meeting, in about three weeks of the residents of Stewart, for the purpose of discussing the question. A great deal of information has been compiled by the committee investigating the subject,-for the benefit of the town, which will be submitted at the meeting. Mrs MacLennan, mother of Mrs Duncan McLean, lett Vancouver Sunday. Mr and Mrs John Stewart and little Mary, left last Sunday for a visit in Victoria.

Progress on Sebakwe Good headway is being made with the tunnel on the Sebakwe, it now being in 600 feet, 350 of which is timbered, lt is understood that this tunnel has for its objective the cutting at depth of the northern extension of the ore bodies in B.C.Silver, which it is understood to be estimated will take 1000 feet of tunnel. *��� - - ��� .

Pure beer proved pure by test (T***9 HE Amalgamated Breweries of British \_y Columbia are determined that the beer they make for the people of British Columbia shall be pure and wholesome. No care is spared, either in the selection of materials or in the processes of brewing, that will guarantee pure beer. Each of the five companies associated in the Amalgamated Breweries maintains laboratories where continuous analyses are made, as a check on the methods of brewing and on the finished product. The Government also, through the Liquor Control Board and in the interests of the people, regularly examines for quality all the beer sold in British Columbia. But that is not enough. A further check is provided for the Amalgamated Breweries by absolutely independent tests made frequently by reputable public analysts upon request, and by means of these reports the beers of the various breweries are compared for purity and general quality. A report has just been made by the well known firm of Macdonald & Macdonald, inspecting and testing engineers of Vancouver and Victoria, on beer made by the Amalgamated Breweries. This report indicates the high quality of the beers sold to the people of British Columbia. For instance, after noting that in the beer tested the original extract in beer wort was high���14.21 per cent.���that alcohol was 4.37 per cent., that "extract" in the beer was 5.88 per cent., and that there was a complete absence of foreign substances, the report goes on to state: " beer is of excellent quality- as the above analysis plainly shows. tt The Amalgamated Breweries are sensible of the obligation placed upon them to provide the best and purest beer for the people of British Columbia. Whether you purchase beer by the glass in licensed premises under Government supervision or by the bottle at Government stores you receive a healthful and beneficial beverage.

This wss very probably due to people going down to Rupert for the Exhibition. A number of the smaller places throughout the riding show good steady growth during the past year, denoting a healthy condition throughout the north. In s review of the polling places, one is struck by tho diversified industrial interests represented in this riding. For instance, there are Love's Ranch and Shehan's Ranch; Cassiar Cannery and C lax ton Cannery; Engineer Mine and Dunwell Mine. Farms, eanneries and mines-and the logging camps voting at all three.
