"Camborne, March 16.—Barney
Crilly, assistant manager of the
Great Northern Mines, *Ltd., has
been here for a brief visit. In conversation regarding the February
oleanup at the Oyster Criterion
mil he said: "Until returnB are
received of the February gold sent
to the United States refinery at
Helena, Montana, I cannot state
definitely the correct amount of the
month's oleanup. Approximately
the bullion was worth 15200, representing a run of eomething under 1000 tons of ore. Bearing in
mind the faot that the gold value,
per ounce, has shown a steady in
crease in value, since the mill
started, it would not surprise me
if this last shipment averaged $17
per oz If my estimates is correct
we can look for simulai  values to
continue for the present as the
south drift in the Criterion olaim
is in a splendid pay shoot of ore.
Roughly, milling 1000 tons with
a value of $5200 saved on tbe
plates, gives an average of $5.20,
beBidea the concentrates."
With the proBpeotB of considerable capital entering the Fish river
camp this coming season, and the
general increased aotivity in all
lines of business, Camborne is
greatly in need of a chartered bank.
At present tbe two mining companies operating here pay out about
$8,000 per month in wages, besides
store bills, etc, by oheok. To this
must be added other enterprises
centered in this viciuity. Every
check iB, of course, discounted, and
at times there is reallya stringency
in looal currency for this purpose,
working a considerable hardship on
all classes. A bank would find a
profitable opening here from the
start. Financing for enterprises of
a lar,e description has to be done
on )he outside, entailing a coneid
erable loss of time and money.

Lead-
Foreign Affairs, confirmed the statement that the British station gunboat Eepiegle will be withdrawn
from Newchwang immediately after
the river is opened, as the vessel
would be in considerable danger in
the event of hostilities, while her
presence there would afford no
effective protection of either life or
property.
The Under Secretary went on to
say that the United States and
Britis consuls had requested the
won.e'n and children to leave Newchwang and doubtless they would
give similar advice to all Amerioan oitizens and British subjects, if
circumstances rendered it advisable.
His Majesty's government has
already addressed representations
to the belligerents, requesting them
to take the necessary steps to safeguard British interests.
London, March 16.—A Russian
correspondent of tbe Times says:
Demonstrations in favor of the war
whioh at first were encouraged by
the government, are now prohibited
beoause it was found they provoked
counter demonstrations.    The students at St. Petersburg university
were urged to declare approval of
the war, but out of five or six thousand, only two hundred signed the
address to the Tsar.    When these
went to cheer outside the winter
palace, Attorney General Kleigels
advised them   to  disperse, "for,"
said   he, "if    you   persist   your
enemies will oome here and make
scandal to your and our discredit'
What was avoided at St. Peters
burg, however, actually took plaoe
at Odessa, where a students' demonstration of loyalty led to a free
fight.   At    Moscow    there    were
patriotio     demonstrations    every
night for ,Bomo time.   A portrait of
the Tsar was  carried about, and
whenever anyone failed to take off
his hat to it he had his hat knocked
off.   Tho praoti.ee led to suoh disorders that the Governor General
stopped  it.     Similar   troubles at
Kieff, Vilna, Rostoff and elsewhere
were followed by similar aotion on
the part of the authorities.
St. Petersburg, Maroh 17—A oopy
of the Novl Krai, of Port Arthur,
dated February 19, which has just
reached here, definitely eB'ablisheB
the faot that when the first torpedo
ataok was made on Port Arthur it
was entirely unexpected. The
Russian  equadron  wm  anchored
from the bridge, could plainly trace
the course of the torpedo aimed at
his ship. When it exploded under
the stern of tbe battleship the latter
heeled at first to starboard and
then to port at an angle of eighteen
degrees. Two other torpedoes
whioh were launched missed the
Tsarevitch. one of them striking the
armored cruiser Pallada. The
Tsarevitoh in the meantime waa
getting rp steam and weighing an
ohor. She finally got under way,
steering with her engines, and
swung around for the harbor, but
failed to make the entrance and
ran aground. The Tsarevitoh was
then down nine feet by the stern,
her after compartments being
flooded. She bad water between
deoks and some water in the ward
room. The torpedo whioh struck
the Tsarevitoh contained 200
pounds of paroxyline.
The Emperor has received a long
telegram from Vice-Admiral Maka-
roff, in command ol the Russian
squadron at Port Arthur, giving
details of the injuries to ships aB he
found them on his arrival at Port
Arthur, and the lessons taught
therefrom. The despatoh was the
subject of earnest discussion at the
winter palace today between hie
Majeety and the Grand Duke Alexis, the high admiral who lunched
with the emperor. They also die-
oussed the condition of ths warships at Kronstadt and those building there. It is understood that bis
majesty will shortly make a personal inspection of these ships.
London, March 17.—The corres
pondent of the Times at Paris
says: "A St. Petersburg despatch
gives ourious particulars of the
turn taken by Russian officials'
anti-Semitism in the war preparations. It Bays that the minister of
the intern r, N. Plehve, claimed
the privilege of partially revising
the list of reservists called up. An
enormous percentage of Jews were
thereafter sent to the front, includ-
most of the dootors of the Jewish
persuasion in St. Petersburg. Out
of 180 medical men who left at the
beginning of the month, 110 were
Jews. This measure was taken for
two reasons, although it was
against the wish of the minister of
war. One reason was tbat the
Jewish savants are all supposed to
be    liberals,    whose   presence in

ercise the privilege of voting.
Every vote so recorded kills that of
some real voter. There ia no doubt
that there has been some misdoing
in the past and the City Council is
not responsible for that. But if
they do not alter the method of
procedure they show that they are
at one with thoBe who were in error
and apparently place themselves
on record as wishful of being able
to perpetrate the same error if
necessary.
MARKET
REPORTS
BALFOUR MINISTRY.
The Lighting company had a
perfectly beautiful excuse to make
to the City Council. But it will
not wash. There is no doubt that
if a lnmp is burned after ils legitimate life has expired it will give a
feebler and feebler light until it
dies out. But anyone in Rossland
who has tried the experiment will
know that if a perfeotly new lamp
iB attached during one of these
■pells when a boulder or an iceberg falls into the flume or a
gigantic bat brushes the line with
its wings or the White Bear is
hoisting a skipful of dirt, it will
not give 16 candle power nor six.
The Lighting oompany may give
60 watts or 160 watts but it is not
giving 16 candle power, new lights
or old. The Would has been deluged with complaints on this
•core and on the very point raised
by the company.
It Is time that the City Council
began considering some alternate
plan. If Trail creek will not do,
what about Stoney or Rock creeks,
if these will not do what about tbe
Nelson plant, if that in turn will
not serve what about a steam plant
if that in turn is of no avail what
about Violin Lake. Get prices from
eaoh and all. Get an engineer
to make the proper surveys, and
when by the end of May the city
knows what the income is likely to
be it will also know what will have
to be the expenditure and then oan
proceed to attempt to sell debentures. If nothing is done in regard
to possible plans of generating light
until the end of May it will be too
late then to get an engineer's report
in and give the company their two
months notice. That two monthB
notioe should not be given not later
than June 1, in order lo finish the
present contract with the company
at its appointed term.	
THE VOTERS' LIST.
The City Council is tackling a
goodly number of things, but there
il one thing that the Would would
Uke to see added to its list and
that is the revision of the Municipal Voters' List. Strict enquiry
ought to be made on all those
people who voted and on those who
were refused to vote. The law
ought to stand that people who
have paid their taxes should be
allowed to vote even if they had
not done so up to the last moment.
Thil would collect for the city
much money which it would not
otherwiie obtain. But this is not
the law and people who have been
■truck off the list on suoh ground
have no quarrel with the municipal
offioers, but rather with the nincompoops who framed the law as it
stands. Still there are matters in
whioh the city is to blame, and it
il up to the Council to devise soma
method of procedure by whioh no
man rightfully entitled thereto,
■hall be derived of bis vote, and
that no man who is not ro rightfully entitled shall ho jiormitlcd to ox-
The Balfour ministry haB sustained a defeat by a oatoh vote in
a house that totalled less tha
half its whole'strength through a
clever plan engineered by the Irish
party. Within half an hour the
decision wae reversed. All the Irish
party gained by their manoeuvre
was to reduoe the Irish estimates
for education by $2500. The Associated Press deolares that had a
second vole gone against the government it would have been bound
lo resign. What the Associated
Press, does not know about the constitution of the tight little island
would fill a big book. The government must resign when it caunot
carry on the business of tbe country, because the wishes of a majority ol the house are contrary. No
amount of catch votes gotten by
an actual minority can affect such
a position. The likelihood seems
to be lhat the government will outlast the session and oall an election
at itB leisure.

and courage to those scanty heroes,
waving my shining sword in tbe sun
that shone for viotory .on us and
curbing my fretting oharger's restless valor, methought, somehow,
the words dried upon my lips, and
the proud murmur oi my firm set
veterans turned to a low moaning
wail, and a grey mist of tears put
out the sun, and black grief drank
up the warriors; and while I wrestled with that melancholy, Blodwen,
my PrinoeBB, was sitting by my
side, cooling my hot forehead with
her calm immortal hand, and
calling me, with smiling accent,
'dull, unwitful, easily beguiled,'
and all the time that young gallant by me lay limp, supine, asleep,
and soulless.
So passed the chequered fanoies
of the night, and the earliest dawn
found us up, in arms, and ready
for -terner things.
[To be continued.]
CHAPTER XII (Continued)
Then Flamauooeur waylaid the
buxom, hurrying housewife, and,
on an evening when many a good
gentleman was going supperless to
bed,got us a loaf of white bread and
a wooden bowl of milk, the which
we presently shared most ccmrade
like, my friend lifting his visor so
much as might suffice to eat, but
yet not enough to show his face.
He waylaid a lad, and, for a coin
or two and a little of his sweet
voiced cajoling, got our steeds
watered and sheltered, though
many another lordly, sleek limbed
beast stood all night unwashed,
jinminded. A most persuasive
youth was Flamaucoeurl
And tben, our frugal supper
made and our horses seen to, we
went to bed. Diffident, ingenuous
young knightl He made my
conch (while I was not by) long
and narrow-mo bigger than for
one—of all the soft things he could
lay his hand on—as though,
forsooth, I were some tender flower
—and for himself hardly spread a
horsecloth, on the bare floor!
Now, when I oame up and found
this done, without a word I sent
the boy to go and see what the
night was like, and if the moon
yet showed, or if it rained, and,
when he went forthwith, pulled
that couch to bits, reepreading it
■o it waB broad enough for two
good comrades side by side. Abl
And when Flamauooeur oame back,
I rated him soundly, telling him
that, though it was set in the laws
of arms that a young knight show
due deference to an older, yet all
that comrades had of hard or soft
was equally dividable, both board
and bed, and good luck and mis
fortune. And he was amenable,
though still a little strange, and
unbuokled his armour by our dim
rushlight, and then—poor tired
youth I—with that iron mask upon
his head, in his quilted underwear,
threw himself upon the couch, and
slept almost before he could
straighten out those shapely limbs
of his.
And I presently lay down by his
side and Blept, while all through
my dreams went surging tho wildest fancies of tilt and tourney and
lady's love.
And now I heard in the uproar of
the restless village street and the
neighing of the chargers at their
pioketH the noise of battle and ot
onset. And then I thought I had
on some unknown field, five thous-
■and spearmen overset against an
hundred times as many; and while
my heart bounded proudly iu answer to that disadvantage, and I
rode up and down our glittering
ranks s {leaking words of strength

WAS KILLED INSTANTLY
Frank  J. Smith Falls  to
His Death at Sandon.
Sandon, Maroh 17.—An accident
took place in the C. P. R. yards at
1:30 o'clook yesterday, whereby
Frank J. Smith, a looal brakeman,
was instantly killed.
Smith was riding on the pilot of
the engine engaged in doing some
yard switohing, and aB the engine
passed over the frog at one of the
switches, the unfortunate man must
have lost his balanoe and fallen off.
He fell under a box car to whioh
the engine was attached, and derailed it. The man's body was
jammed underneath the oar and
when the car wae jacked up, and
the body taken out, itjwas seen that
the man had been instantly crushed
to death when he fell.
Smith came from Florence, Mont.,
where his mother now resides. He
was unmarried and about 30 years
of age.
PERCY ISSUES WARNING
Continued from first page
Russia at oritioal times is considered to be undesirable. The other
reason was the reprehensible influences brought to bear on behalf of certain non Jewish practitioners, who were only too glad to
get their Jewish rivals off to tbe
war.
The families of the Jewish reservists are objects of vexatious measures on the part of the authorities,
who expel them from the large
towns, and oblige them to take
refuge in the ghettos re-erved for
the JewB. Jewish doctors Bent to
the east have been deprived of
part of their emoluments, and
receive only 900 roubles for traveling expenses, whereas Christian
doctors get 1250.
Pressure is being brought to bear
on the JewB whose presence is
tolerated outside the ghettos by
subordinate officials and polioe
agents, who claim "voluntary contributions" for the Red Cross and
naval funds and other institutions.
The general opinion is that M.
Plehve's power amounts to an irresponsible dictatorship, which iB
hardly of a nature to paoify publio
feelings.
