WARONER IN THS LEAD. With the approach of spring, says The International, comes the unquestioned evidences of a prosperous year for South Kant Kootenay ami Wardner. It does not take a mind with extraordinary power of discernment to see that the future for this district and this town is to he om of Kreat promise and pros- perty. Neit'B from over the district and Intelligence from tlie money centres of Eastern Canada and the States verify the predictions made hy those acquainted with the. conditions, and show beyond any question of a doubt that the tide is turning to South East Kootenay. Capital will he invested in triines, capital will be invested in improvements, capital will he invested in business, capital will bo invested in land., capital will he invested in town property; in fact, inmeuee mat' of money v;il! ba brought Into activa sorvicc in this district dnrinj tho coming season. These mea who lire ready lo invest in various enterprises in South East Kootenay ar�� not making their investments blindly. Last year was devoted to au examination of the field. The building of tha Crow's Neat l'nsa road attracted their attention since they knew that millions would not be invested by any corporation to open up a country that was not rich in resources*. Yet, representatives visited this territory last year end examined the count ry pb a field for profitable investment. The result of thess iuvestifrtions are already showing. The reporti must have been eminently sr.tlsfory, s'nee thousands and hundreds of thousands will bo invested in South East Kootenay within the next few morithc. And why not? continues The International. Kov.here eke is there a country that gives rttch positive assurance of rich returns for labor and capital invested as South E.".st Kootenay. Hundred! of thousands of dollars are 1-eius eipcnded in tho construction of a f;reat trunk line of railway. Fortunes will be invested in mines that have fortunes already in sight, waiting for facilities to tianspor it to market. Thousands will go lo developing prospects that need only labor to make them paying ���nines. There is a rich territory that ii yet to bi prospected .There will he grow towns, coustrucvtlon of bull.ling: developing of mines, breaking up of Igricultural lands, cutting of nii!li..n>: ol feet uf lumber, in all a great industrial ���vnve that will bring prosperity to every resident of this section who shows that he merits prosperity. Not long ago a visitor to this section said: "1 could not name a place in Canada or tlie Ststtra where such glor ious opportunities will be presonled for success as will he found iu South East Kootenay the next few years." Thut man was right. He stated the trutl And those who cams here will tally appreciate th* wisdom ofth* re marks, There will ha several good towns 1 twean Crows Nest lake and Kootonay laka, along th* line of the Crows K�� road. There will be one town that is sure to be a hummer. That is Wnrdner, It is in the centre of this great district and is located ot the crossing of the Kootenay river and Crow's Nest road. It ia the only town ill the whole distri.'l that will enjoy thabonefltsol a trunk line of railway and four (ti-.imboats. It is locsted near to tha great coal Iields. ll is th- liudquorMri for the construction c4 th�� railroad. It Is cuncjde.l t-> b�� th�� tow* tlmt ini'.tnliued to b�� the upaoMrcitilcentre and distributing point for this territory, i! vrl'l have c��e and. perhaps more smelters. It Is a froning town to-day, and it i�� improving every twenty-tour hours. It has reached that stage where stltcctt in already aisured, and its growth in the liiturc will b�� both permanent and rapid. Many oppor- (unities exist hare for making money, and many more will he presented within the next few laontlis, No town in eithor East or West Kootenay h:.s tmeh �� futr.i'e. That it enjoys ereiy advantage is shown by the actios ef the eastern syndicate thai has purchased the town- site company's iutcrest ia the unsold lots. The membereof the company have inverted their thousands to make thousands. They propose to it, end will jneh the advantage thoy enjoy to a successful climax. Wardner will be the objective poir.l the coming year. Every developement shows that now. The men who succeed In getting on the ground floor will cave time and money. Every man should look over the whole territory. The International hopes that each vistors will THE CALCARY BONSPIEL. (From Wednesday's Herald.) Curling started in good earnest yesterday morning at &.80, when ei^ht riuks of the knights of the besom showed up to contend for the Walkervillo trophy. Smart mot his Waterloo the first crack out ot the box, when Edgar, of Fish Creek, defeated him 14 tu 6. Major Walker captured his man by a score ol IS to o against Hood, of Sandon.

At ,0 three other rinks were yui on, two being ill the VVolkervillo and one in the McNeill. F. McNeill had his work cut for him hy MeLeod, of Lethbridge. The visitors put up a strong game and some say they oiitcui'led tlie home rink, mtat the (lose the score stood 12 to 9 in favor of McNeill. Scott, ol Lethbridge, lent Warren, of Golden, by 11! to 10, after a good game. Thia finished the Walkevville competitions tor tho d**y. In the McNeill trophy Freeze put up 10 to Aird's 7, end later Smart beat Hood 12 to 10, the curling being very even, but an error of judgment In tbe last end gave tlio victory to Smart. Walker drew against Parson and beat him by lt> to II. On No. I! ice wrs om of the prettiest games put up so f.r In the 'spiel, when Warren, of Golden, played Edgar, ol Fish Creok. It was a draw game throughout aud was n tie al the eleventh end, and only won by Warren by 10 la I) on tho twelfth ond by a very close call. McNeill and McNeish had also a hard game, but McNeill finished 10 to McNeish's 8. At 0.30 the hall wub opened In the Calgary Brewing k Malting Co. trophy, when McLcoil tamed Ncilson'e C..1I* tu the score of Iii to '.>. Kinnlsteti beat Parson 11 to S, and Walker struck a boulder from tho coal town and was knocked out by a sere ot 13 to 11. Aird, of Sheep Creek, beat McNeish 13 lo 7. At 9,80 fresh rinks were called up when Lauder beat Freeze hy 11 to 10. Forbes McNeill's rink had done well but cotilj not withstand the miners from the west and were defeated by Hood by a score o; 10 to 0. Smith seemed to regain his old- time cuiiniii�� who the stones and heal Wan-en Id to 0. llclwod, of Lothhrjilgo, secured a game l;om llayiner, of Edmonton, by default, which finished the sport for the day. ThiB morning there were t.ur games In the Walkervllle. Walker beat Kln- nisten by 13 to It). McNeill beat Edgar 11 to 10. Freeze beat Scott 15 to 3 and Lauder beat the Colts ly 13 to 12 on the thirteenth end, the hiking the Colts got tha night Jietoro evidently doing them gOO.1.

The production of gold in 1897 vu* 2,685,000 line ounces,valued at So.5,-198, 950, against 2,553,433 line ounce, valued at 152,330.200, 111 18!��0. The production in the TJaneviial was about tho same as in tbe U. S., and it will be doubtful which country will bold first placo until revised fij-iues are obtained. Tiiere wan a large Increase in the gold production of Colorado,whluli has now surpassed California for tlio first timo, but tlie increase of production in that state was offset by decreases ill others. Tho gold production of the [Clondlke, which was only $2,000,000, notwithstanding the exaggerated newspaper reports has been credited to Canada, and tho latter bIiowb consequently a groat increase in output. The moet important gold producing district iu tho I.', f. was Cripple Creek, whicli broke ils best previous record, Other important districts oi tho year were lhe l.lnc'-i Hills, b'outh Dakota; Me-rcur, Utah, and tbe various camps of the Mother lodo in California.

Iti addition to this there wan a production of 89,325,000 line ounces irom foreign ores and bullion, against 1)3,122, 520 tine ounces lu 1M6\ The decrease in tlie American production is accounted [or by Ue heavy decline in the value of silver, which compelled a number of important producers to closo down. The falling oft in production would undoubtedly have been greater had it not been for the high price of lead during n considerable part of the year. A \vry large proportion���probably SO per cent.���of the silver production of tho U.S.is deriv- ed from tho ores in which gold, lead or copper in the more important element of value. Inboih ib-itish Columbia and Mexico thoro was an 1 ncrouse iu the prodtictoon ot silver; In the former it corresponded more or loss to the increase in the production of lead and copper: in the latter, where business in con ducted on a silver basis, the coat of labor falls proportionately with tlie value of silver,ami silver mining is not affected to the same extent as in countries which are on a solid gold basis. There was a considerable increase in the load production in Mexico in 1897,and an in- erease in the silver production was consequently to be expected. The production of lead in 1807 was 19-��,.530 short tons, valued at $13,031,348, against 174,702 short tons, valued at $10- 881,843,iu 1806, Besides there was a large amount of lend produced in the United States frem foreign ore and bullion, a lar^e part of weich was exported after desllverieation. The increase, which was proportionately large iu Missouri, accounted for by tho high price of the metal during most of the year; Tlie chief sources of domestic lead supply continue to be tho Coeur d'Alono district of Idaho, hendv'dle, Colo., and the vicinity of Bonne Terre Mo. The exportation of foreign lead refined in bond during the. first ten months of the year was 41,010 short tons.

The new arrangement made by the C. P. R. with its train dispatchers and telegraph operators is given in a circular issued by Mr. W. 11. Allison, chairman of the joint board representing tlio telegraphers on the Ontario & Quebec the Atlantic, and the eastern divisions of lhe railroad. The concessions whicli the men receive under the new agreement are In some instances important, especially in regard to the increase in wages. The tclegrapers themselves consider that thoy are indebted to Mr. Powell, the president, of the International Order of Telegraphers, (or tlie favorable arrangement they were able to make with the C. P. R. The following is the text of tbe agreement: Right of trial or investigation in the case of discharge or suspension. Tolegraphers arc not to bo discriminated against for serving on boards of adjustment. The telegraphers will be allowed to attend their regular and annual meetings. Rights of promotion. No telegrapher will be required to teach the art of telegraphing. Extra pay when attending switch and signal lamps. Telegraphers will not be required to shovel snow, sift ashes or scrub stations. Commissions to be paid on commercial business. Twelve consecutive hours to constitute a day's work. Overtime to be paid after twelve hours. Telegraphers to be exempt from Sunday work as far as possible. Telegraphers in tho service for four years or more will be entitled two weekB' leave of absence with full pay each year. The minimum salaries on the different divisions to be: Cartior to Tt. William, ageut and operator, with dwelling, fire and light, ���17.50 per month; without these, ���52.50.

The very life of a moilcrn ship depends upon ports of coaling and refitting ucar at hand. Russia has one such port at VladlvoBtock, but Germany has none in Asia, tlreat Britain lias several of her own withiu a few days' steaming, and all the resources of Japan are at her disposal within a few hours, If anything could make the theatrical German orusade more ridiculous than the imperial rhodomontade which ushered it in, it is that Prince Henry must buy conl at a half-dozen British ports ou his way to China, Not only is the British lieet on the ground before the German fleet starts, but the latter is absolutely dependent on British help to make Hs journey. The Russians are little better off, because the English and Japanese could shut them off in Port Arthur and Vladlvostook, and work tlieir will in Korea and Pckin. This move opens a new phase in tin. game of Europeauiziiig China. Great Britain's protest against tlio displace*, nient of British administrators in Korea is nn earnest of the way in whicli she will meet the developing plans for Russianizing the Chinese administration, British policy apparently is to take no part in the partition of China, either to share it or prevent it, but to require the most absolute guaranties for her trad, and to protect it against unfriendliness of administration of any part of tlie empire in which her commercial interests are greater than all other foreigners. To this end she will menace Russia, oppose Germany, support Japan,exhaust the resources of diplomacy, and, if at last needful, will fight. This is the notice she has just served upon Europe ���New York.Commercial Advertiser. Timber on Mineral Claims. The following is from the Sew Denver I.rdge and will be of great interest to many of our readers in East Kootenay: The question of the right to timber on mineral claims has been causing some discussion in West Kootenay. Saw mill men, acting under a decision of the provincial timber inspector, have been helping themselves to tha timber on certain claims. Mr. W. A. Corbett, of Summit camp, recently submitted the matter to Hon. James Baker, minister ef mines,and that official reversed the timber inspector ill tlie following reply: 41 You ask what right you have to the limber ou your mineral claim. I state that you have the riglit to the whole of the timber on your mineral claim provided you are working it ns such and that if any saw mill company is taking the timber from your land you have a perfect riglit to stop them anil should apply to the nearest magistrate to do so. " (Signed) James 1'ukhh, " Minister of Mines." ! Brltaln'a Sea Power. Boarding-House Geometry. III'.FISITIOXS AND AXIOMS. All boarding-houses are the same boarding-houses. Boarders in tho same boarding-house nnd on the same flat are equal to one another. A single room is that whicli lias no parts and no magnitude. A landlady of a boarding-house is a parallelogram���that si,' an oblong and angular figure, whicli cannot he described, but which is equal to anything. A wrangle is tlie disinclination of two boarders to each other that meet together but are not on the same flat. All the rooms being taken, a single room is said to be a double room. F0HTULATE8 AN'n PROPOSITIONS., A pie may be produced any number of times. Tlie landlady can be reduced to her lowest terms by a series of propositions. A bee-line can be made from any boarding-house to any other bourding house. Tlie clothes of a boarding-house bed, though produced ever so far botli ways, will not meet. Any two meals at a boarding-house are together less than two square meals. If from the oppositeendsof a boarding- house a line be drawn passing through all the rooms in turn, then the stovepipe whicli warms the hoarders will lie within that line. On the same bill arrd nn the same side of it there should not he two charges for the same thing. If there he two boardcres on lhe same (hit aud tl'.e amount of side of one be equal to the amount of tho side of the other, each to each, nnd tlie wrangle between one boarder nnd tht) landlady be equal to the wrangle between the landlady anil the other,then shall the weekly bills of the two boarders he equal also, each to each. For if not, lot one bill be the greater. Then tho other hill is less than it might have been���which is absurd. British diplomacy sometimes seems hit alow, but British fleets seldom procrastinate when there is work to do. Great Britain gave Europe a lesson iu sea power when the " Hying squadron able to scope with any foreipn licet, was mobilised ia the channel without draw ing a ship oft the foreign stations and stood ready to meet an enemy at any point at home or abroad. Now she gives Asia a lesson in the sudden appearance in Korer.n waters of seventeen ships, able to meet any hostile combination, and able, with the aid of thirty Japanese ships, to dominate the whole northern Pacific coast ot Asia, to shut up the Russian ships in port and to cut off French and German reinforcement. Thia celerity of action and alert preparedness for hostilities always has been the secret of British successes at sea. More on tbe ocean than on the land victory is with the commander who concentrates hie force at the right time and place. Napoleon died in exile because he could not fight on two elements at once, and had no naval duplicate suddenness with which this fleet looms up in the Yellow sea that recalls the appearance of Nelson in the bay of Biscay when Villeneuve thought he was cruising in the West Indies. That was the curtain-raiser lor the world drama of Trafalgar.
