Coincident with the arrival of
ex-Government Mackintosh incamp
comes the first shipment this year
oi ore from the Giant mine. It is
a happy augury, and it is to be
hoped that tbe shipment will be
the first of many, and that the new
venture of the Hon. H. C. Mackintosh will be at least as happy in
its results to the camp as waB that
in connection with the flotation of
some of the now best known mines
of Rossland some years ago.
Development [on the Giant has
not been carried far enough to justi-
tify any wild hopes being entertained of the property, although too
conservative an estimate will probably eventually be found to be well
within tbe mark. There is a good
showing and a little more development will doubtless establish the
existence of at leaBt two well
proven and valuable veins. One
of these carries ledges of molybdenite which go high in gold val-
u s, some having been known to
exceed $100, and some shipped last
fall ran as high as $40 in average
values. One carload of this ore
was loaded yesterday at the siding
on Black Bear flat and ore
sufficient to load several more is
lying in the bin  on lhe   property.
A good wagon road of easy gr.'de
has been constructed to handle the
ore, and the prospects are that another and a valuable shipper will
now be added to the mines of the
camp.

Despite the inclemency   of   the
weather the celebration of the  anniversary of the Odd Fellows   yesterday at the Miners'   Union   hall
was a decided success      The   procession was a little late in starting
from Odd Fellows  hall, inasmuch
I aB it rained, but eventually   some-
I thing over a hundred men   formed
: in line and marched to the Miners'
j Union hall in  their   full regalia,
j The city band  was in   attendance
I and gave its   services   free.     The
| choirs of   the   Baptist,   Methodist
| and Presbyterian churches rendered the musical parts of the   ceremonies anda solo,Babylon,was sung
| in excellent   voice by Miss Louise
Impey.    In addition to the solo  a
duet,   beautifully    rendered,   was
given by   Miss Jean Robinson and
Miss Louise  Impey,   and   a   trio,
DavidjJonathan and Saul, by Bros.
Long, Coffyn and Fortin.     Beside
these musical features of the  anni
verBary ceremonies there were Bev-
eral hymns  sung,   including   the
ever popular   "Nearer My God  to
Thie," and also an anthem by  the
combined choirs.     MiBS   Maclean
presided with her accustomed taBte
and Bkill at the piano.

Strike Upon the Columbia-
Kootenay is as Yet of
Little Importance.
There being several rumors of
i late about a strike being made up
on the Kootenay MineB application
was made to the management for
confirmation which, however, stated
there was nothing warranting publication. As far as ascertained the
strike has been come across upon
the No. (i tunnel, and is a small
lead of ore in which some quartz
and spar is mixed up, making it, to
look one of Ihe prettiest ores in the
camp. The width of the ledge is
about two feet. It is in the face of
the drift, and is therefore west of
both Iho other ore bodies in this
mine The lead was found in both
the No. 4 and No. 5 tunnels where
it was found to be of about the
snme width. The country at this
point is much broken and nothing
much can as yet bo predicted about
this ledge. The best ore in the
mine is still to be found in the
moat easterly of the three chief ore
bodies.

WAS BURNED TO THE GROUND
The Dry House at the White Bear Was
Destroyed by Fire Last Night.
At about 8:30 o'clock last night
the dry house at the White Bear
mine, where the men change their
working clothes on coming off
shift, was observed to be on fire.
Nothing could be well done io save
it, nor were the ci ty tire boys in attendance, as the mine is practically
out of their jurisdiction, although
Chief Guthrie put in an appearance. The cause of the fire would
Beam to be the ignition of the roof
from the stove pi pe.There was known
to have been a brisk lire in the stove
earlier in the evening. As it was
Sanday night there were not many
clothes of value within the shack,
and the loss is conlimd to about
$60 or $70.

BASELESS COMMENT IN CAMP
A Few Miners Being Laid Off is but
Part  of a  Transient
Policy,
Nearly the Whole Family Destroyed
by the Sudden Outbreak
of Fire.
During the past few days there
.have been a good many men laid
off at the Le Roi and it is possible
that within the next few days
there may be several mure. On
this some panic mongers, only too
common a species in a mining
camp, have rushed to the conclusion that the mine was to be shut
down permanently and being morally forced to assign a reason declared that this would continue
until the price of copper again rose.
This in face of the fact that according to the showing of the past
few months the Le Roi is paying
at the rate of $400,000 to $500,000
per annum on an ore averaging
not much over $10, and despite of
the well known circumstanced thai
the bodies of ore at the lower level
are equal to anything ever found
in the mine, and better than the
average values found in theinterme-
diate stopes.
The mine management is extremely reticent as to tho real rea-
sons'lying behind its course as naturally it is not always good business policy to disclose the factor*
which actuate the movements of a
large concern where great interests
are at stake.
It can safely be stated, however,
that there will be no permanent
shut down. Indeed on the face of
the matter such a course is not
good business policy.
It may be pointed out lhat tho
smelter at Northport is nol capable of continuously handling much
more than 1000 tons per day and
as shipments are being made from
ihe big dump without lhe cost of
stoping that necessarily a number
of men engaged iu sloping will be
out of work until such time as the
dump is sent away or as much of
it as will pay f >r treatment.
Winnipeg, April 28.—Five children dead, another child dying, the
mother in a serious condition and
father very badly burned. Such
was the awful resuli|of a holocaust
in the peaceful little village of St.
Norbert Saturday night. Fire destroyed the home of John Baptist
Jlonchamp.butcher. His four Bona
ranging in age from three to 15
years were bur led beyond all recognition. One daughter, a little
gir! of four years, was also a victim. The other daughter iB dying
from her terrible burns. The
mother and father are badly burned.
The family were all in bed, having retired about 9 o'clock Tlie
house is a small structure of two
stories. Mr. and Mrs. Monchamp
slept downstairs and the children upstairs. The father was
awakened by the crackling of the
flames and before he had time lo
warn the children tho whole upper
part of the house was a raging furnace, and the parents of the demolished family were only able to
escape a like doom by jumping
through a window. The only one
of the children who escaped death
was the eldest giri, wnu managed
to make her way down stairs
through the flames. She was terribly burned and it is not expected
she can recover, The others, apparently were consumed in their
sleep.

LAND VALUES.
Perhaps one of the most hotly de
bated planks at the Kamloops convention was upon the taxation oi
land values. But it was not debated from the point of view that
taxation upon land values waB not
highly desirable, for that principle
is already recognized under the
municipal act of this province, btt
rather from the point of view that
it might be misconstrued into a
tax upon the farmer who is the
chief occupant of land. That is
why the phrase "land values"
rather than that of "land" merely
was doubtless used. The two
things are utterly separate. A tax
upon land and a removal of the
property tax would necessarily
throw the burden of taxation upon
the largest holders of land. But
even in this caBe the burden does
not fall upon the farmer but rather
upon the land speculator. But the
plank is aimed at "land
values." That is to say
upon the land it is levied upon the
unearned increment of land values
in cities where the values of the
land is enormously increased by
the presence of large number of
people. Farm land might be worth
anything-from $2 to 50 per acre.
But city land will run from $100
to $100,000 dollars per acre, and
therefore a tax upon land values
rather than upon land would fall
■ upon the city dweller rather than
the resident in the country. Indeed, as the plank also contemplates, ' the gradual abolition of all
property taxation, where property
means improvements, the farmer
would be exempt from from this
onerous impost and even if the
tax npon the land were higher than
at present it would be more than
met by the reduction and abolition
of other forms of taxation to which
he is at present subject.
THE LIGHTING   FRANCHISE.
The experience ol KamloopB in
the ownership of municipal franchise has lately led Revelstoke to reconsider its ways and it is borrowing an engineer from Rossland with
a view of entering into the water
business. The state of the revenues
of Nelson compared with those of
Rossland ought to lead our civic
solons into some consideration as
to how the finances of thiB city can
be substantially bettered. Various
methods have been tried but up to
the preBenfc they have not proved
to be a success.
While Rosslanders are at this
juncture in the affairs of the city
casting about for a meanB of financing it were well to turn attention
to the scheme thought of Bome years
ago and approved of by the voice
of the people, and that is that of
public ownership of city franchises.
Rossland already owns itB water
and is year to year extending its
system at no expense to itself in
such manner that inside of a decade it will prove a valuable source
of revenue. Let the same be done
with the light.
There is no doubt as to its value.
The RoEBland Water and Light
company_ once declared that its
chief source of revenue was the
light, and that the water could
practically be supplied at cost.
There is, however, the question of
value. What will the city obtain
in return for the money to be paid
over to this company? It will get
nothing beyond the franchise itself
that will *be of particular value.
But whatever time the franchise is
taken over by the city the same
condition of affairs will exist.
There is therefore no object in delay.
The other objection is the Bupply
of power. Here Nelson is capable
of coming to the assistance of this
city. It is also dealing with the
same conditions with regard to itB
lighting franchise as Rossland. It
might not pay for either Nelson or
Rossland to erect a power plant on
Bonnington Falls for itself alone.
But if such a plant were erected by-
Nelson, as proposed a year since,
but laid over because of the expense, with the prospect of large
consumers for its power in both
Rossland and Trail it could not
help being a success. It is a matter which should engage the attention of the three cities concerned,
and if the boards of trade are not
sufficiently alive to the situation
the matter should be taken up by
the civic authorities, the trades and
and labor councils and the local
press.
NOTES AND COMMENTS.
F. J. Deane is to be congratulated upon the live newspaper, the
Nelson Nowb, he is giving the Nel
sonites. A paper that does not
hesitate in giving the news and is
willing to discuss the questions of
the day with fairness is sure of
patronage in the Kootenays.
The better consolidation of the
United States after the civil war
was the beginning of an unprecedented era of prosperity in that
country. Similar results attended
the federation of the German empire,
our own Empire grown wiser with
experience, is surely about to federate also,with the probability of even
greater results than those heretofore
witnessed. There are cavillers no
doubt but these forget the motto,
"In union there is strength."
The latest newB from the coaBt
causes Rosslanders to congratulate
themselves that the lato deputation
to the coast did not prolong their
visit to the seat of government
That the mineral tax amendment
was neither understood by the deputation nor of the ministry approached is already an accepted
fact. Rossland was prepared to
receive with diluted gratitude the
assertion that something had been
accomplished by way of one or
more local appropriations. This
itself has proved to be a false
alarm. The chances are that if
our worthy representatives, J. C.
Clute and J. B. Johnson, had inflicted their views at any greater
length upon the government
this city would have got nothing
and might have lost the court
house. Silence is golden in some
cases.

SOME MORE   IMPERIAL FORCES.
Latest Addition to the Army That Upholds the World.
The public mind has been so
muoh engrossed with the war in
South Africa, says the London
(Eng.) Sketch, that little attention
haB been paid to events in other
parts of the great continent, which
in more peaceful times would probably have furnished columns of

Central and East Africa a small
but efficient army is being brought
into existence aB a part of the permanent forces of the Empire. Colonel W. H. Manning, of the Indian Staff Corps, is to be its commander-in-chief, and will act as adviser to the home government.
In addition to an Indian contingent, six battalions are being
created, to be known as the "King's

troops. Two of these will be Central Africa battalions, two will be

The fi th annual meeting ol the shareholders
of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal company was held
in Toronto on March 7th.
The net profits of the year after paying all
operating expenses and all charge of every kind,
amounted to $207,848.39. After paying a dividend at the rate of ten percent per annum, a hal-
ance of $28,142, 89 was carried forward to the
credit of profit and loss.
This company's assets are their coal mim-s
and tbe townsi e of Fernie. Four years ago thia
company had no transportation facilities, and their
st"ck sold aB low as eleven cents per share. Today their stock is Belling at $90.
The Similkameen Valley Coal company, limited, assets are coal mines, timber, water power,
agricultural and horticultural land, city water
wirks, electric light plant and the townsite of
Aehnola, surrounded by the following resources:
gold, copper, silver, lead, iron, lime, fire clay,
platinum, and a fine stockraising country, and it
is the smelting center of the Similkameen valley, with a climate that is all that could be asked,
You can secure an option on this company's stock
by paying 10c per share down, and ten cents per
month until fully paid, wi'h non-forfeiture clause.
This price is subject to twenty-five cents advance,
without notice as soon as transportation is assured.
The present price is $1.10 per share. Do not wait
until it is too late, but get in on the ground floor,
and make a htin-Uome profit, A purchaser of
one hundred shares now, may gain a profit of
88.990. Crow's nest shareB aB an example. This
would be a fair profit on an investment o! ten
dollars per month lor eleven months. We invite
the fullest inspection of the company's affairs by

KIDNAPS A RAJAH
Trouble in the Malay Peninsula.
HIGH HANDED SIAMESE ACTION
But an  Ambitious  Embryo  Cecil
Rhodes Was Back of the
Paid.
On the outBkirtB of the Empire
there are many Cecil Rhodes, and
Warren Hastings in embryo says
the Victoria ColoniBt. One of these
would be enlargeis of John Bull's
Empire has stirred up a pretty
kettle of fish in Siamese Malaya.
Mr. Annadale, an explorer, has
been for several monies in Patani,
and iB regarded as a plotter to secure Patnai for Britain. There
was considerable friction between
the Rajah of Patani and the Siamese, and when he was there, although the explorer was treated
well by the Rajah, he was ever
watched by the Siamese and his
every move reported to Bangkok.
One attempt was made by the
Siamese to poison him.
On his return Mr. Annadale was
interviewed by the Malay Mail,
and he stated that the state was
reeking with intrigue and ripe for
rebellion against the Siamese suzerainty. The kidnapping of the
of the Rajah of Patani—tbe potentate was lured on to a Siamese
gunboat and carried off—will probably have the effect of causing
Britain to step in, and a glance of
the map, said Mr. Annadale.shows
that Britain's interference will seal
the fate of Siamese Malaya. Nobody doubts that ultimately all
the Malay Btates will come under
the British ilag, continued the explorer. If he does let him read the
history of India for the last hundred years.
The Malay Mail comments on
the story and pointedly asks:
"Is the whole business prearranged
as an excuse to smooth the susceptibility of the Siamese nobility
when the King of Siam quietly
makes a transfer, nominally under
cornpulsion?"
Other Siamese and Malay papers say that the Rajah has been
arrested for intriguing with the
B hah, and the Singapore Free
Press tells the story of how he was
kidnapped as follows: "His High-
nesB, the Rajah of Patani,a friendly and neighboring potentate, recently in Singapore, has been kidnapped by a Siamese official from
Patani. He was taken away in
a Siamese gunboat, and is now a
prisoner. He waB lured to the
house of a Chinese official, where
he was asked to sign and subscribe
to a treaty whereby he was to
practically abjure the right of governing his own state. On refusing
he was surrounded by a company
of 30 soldiers from the gunboat
who took him away with three attendants. The Rajah was not allowed to send for either his wife or
cash.
"The telegraph operators employed by the Siamese telegraphs
have been instructed to send no
word of the kidnapping, and it waB
not until messengers reached Singapore that the news was learned
that the Malays of Patani were
frantic and their rising was expected to result in serious trouble,
which is likely to extend to the
state of Kelantan, as the Rajah
is a near relative and friendly and
affectionately disposed towards the
kidnapped Rajah.
"Phrya Sri Sahadi was the kidnapper. He is an under secretary
tary in the Siamese government,
and he planned well, for when the
kidnapping took place it was
late at night, and there were few
Malays present, who were quickly
driven back when they tried to assist their ruler.''

;;Refused Assistance.
In the sreet row yesterday a bystander ^ was called upon by the
police to aid tbem in making an
arrest. He refused and there was
a serious intention of having him
charged with this offence which is
heavily penalized. It was afterwards explained that the man is
married and could not afford to be
laid off a day to serve as a witness
and under the circumstances all
thought of a prosecution was dropped.

STRIKERS
WIN OUT
The Longshoreman's Union
Gains the  Day in
Halifax.
The result of the settlement of the
late strike of the longshoremen in
this city,says the Halifax Recorder,
has been that out of ten demands
presented by the union, concessions
in almost ever case were conceded.
The union has been practically
recognized by which both parties
are bound to fulfil its conditions;
the day scale of 20 cents per hour
remains the same, but the night
scale, which was formerly 20 cents,
has been increased to 25 cents. The
day and night hours, as defined in
lhe schedule, have been acceded to.
Double time for Sundays and holidays aro granted. Work on standard vessels 25 cents per hour, time
to commence from moment men
leave wharf until they return,
board included, has been granted.
In case where men are ordered out
at a Bpecific hour, their time to
count from the the hour ordered
out until ordered home, was alBO
acceded to. The meal hours' clause
was granted. The clause dealing
with holidays, for which double
time was demanded, was acceded
to. A clause was adopted by
which either party will have to
give 30 days' notice of any proposed change.
Another feature of the settlement
is that all persons who come out
on strike, in sympathy with the
longshoremen, will be re-instated
and shall not be discriminated
against.

[ Imagine a model so easy in its lines that the
first duy of wearing gives as much comfort
as all other corsets you have worn gave
after weeks of use. A corset so beautiful
contoured that not a ridge is apparent
through your dress. A corset so sensible
that there is no strain upon breast or abdomen, ro interference with breathing or digestion. "La Vidas" are stronger, surer and
betier than any corset the world has yet
known. They are hygienic corsets because
they fit the figure and don't seek to have
the form tit them. They give a chick, .dashing appearance to the figure—they wear
like armour plate.
