Fother- ingham, tbe smelter expert, reported Saturday afternoon from Butte and announced that he and his associates, Messrs. James Breen and H. C. Bellinger, had definitely decided to erect a smelter which would be capable of treating 400 tons of ore daily at Osborne bay, the terminus of the short line tf railway which runs from the mines of Mount Sicker to tidewater, about forty miles from Victoria. Advices from Winnipeg say that never in the history of the Canadian west has there been such demand for farm lands as during the past month. Thousands of acres have changed hands and Winnipeg real estate agents and the government land and railway departments have been unable to keep pace with the rush. For the month of November just closed 151,922 acres were sold, realizing 1212,862. In November, 1900, 22,408 acres acroi were sold for 169,627. .Up to November 30th, 698,922 acres had been sold this year, for which $2,- 237-862 was realized. -• House and lot on White Bear addition, convenient to all the mines.

Next to Postoffico, FIRE AT THE SILVER KING Large Bunk House Was Destroyed Yesterday. THE INMATES HAD A CLOSE GALL \. _____-_____■_■_____________■ I W Other Mine Buildings Not Injured-Work of Rebuilding G&mmenced-Company Carried $14*000 Insurance-Nen Lost Everything. Nelson, Dec. 2.—The large bunk- bouse at the Silver King mine waa burned to the ground early yesterday morning. The fire was first noticed shortly after 4 o'clock, but it had gained such headway by this time that there was no chance for the men to fight it, and several of the inmates had a close call for tbeir lives. The bunkhouse was a four story building and at the time of the fire was occupied by close upon 100 men, Just what the loss will be to the company has not been figured up, but in addition to the structure itself the loss will run up into pretty large figures, as large quantities of stores were laid in a few weeks ago for the winter's u_e. The fire broke out in the dining room in the basement, and when the door leading to the dining room was open the rush of smoke was so dense that it was found impossible to get it closed again. This smoke quickly filled the entire building and rendered ft impossible for the inmates to save anything. The men who were living in the building lost their clothes and valuables, the money loss of some of the men running up into hundred! of dollars. There was two feet of snow at the mine, which greatly agisted the men to escape by jumping from the windows. Captain Gifford says the company carried about $14,000 insur- and upon the bunkhouse, but just what tha loss would be upon the building and contents he would not know until an inventory of the contents could be made up. The greatest loss which the company will suffer by reason of the fire will be in the interruption of mining operations. It will be well on to two or three months before the bunkhouse can be rebuilt and until it is built the company will be forced to lay. off the greater number of the men. This will mean that shipments to the smelter will be interfered with and when the stock of ore on hand is treated the copper furnace at the smelter will most likely be blown out. The fire did not reach any of the other building! at the mine. During the forenoon, the miners began to come down the hill. Many of them were forced to make the trip in their working clothes. Most of them look for a lay-off of two months. The work of rebuilding has com roenced and a temporary bunkhouse will be run up at once. DIED FROM JAUNDICE A Celestial Joins the Majority This Morning- A Chinese Funeral. Inquisitive people who want to see the impressive rites of a Chinese funeral can liaye their curiosity satisfied tomorrow or next day. Charlie Sing, a Chinese laundry- man, who ran a washee-washee place under [he Ottawa hotel on Washington street, died there at an early hour this morning of jaundice, from which he has been suffering for some time. Sing was 42 years old and well known in Rossland. Presumably he Kill be burried with all the ceremonies dear to the natives of the flowery land.

London, Dec. 2.—General Buller has disappointed hit admirers. They cheered him tremendously at the Devonian dinner last night and assured him of their unstinted admiration for his brilliant services to the empire and their unshaken confidence in him as a skillful and gallant officer, but be adopted a cautious tone and failed to tell anything more about his historic message which he sent to General White in Ladysmith after the battle of Colenso. He excused himself on the ground that he was precluded from entering into any discussion of the subject, but in view of what hat already taken place it seems scarcely likely that he would have been stopped by mere considerations of discipline from revealing tbe whole truth about the helio- gram if he did not realize that his case was a bad one.

THE EVENING WORLD, ROSSLAND, B. C, DECEMBER 2, iqoi The Evening World By the World Publishing Company. PKbllshed daily in Miners' Union hall, Rossland, In the Interest of organized labor In British Columbia. Entered at the Rossland, B.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES-Pifty cents per _sb_.th of |*» year, invariable ln advance, Ad- ve-tising ratns made known on application. Address all communications to James H. Fkicher. Manager, P. O. box 901, Rossland, B. C KICKED OUT? Hon. Smith Curti_, M. P. P., has been solemnly cursed with "bell, book and candle." He has been kicked out of public life for ever, but the Rossland Miner in performing this painful duty asaures its readers that the fatal step was only taken after much prayerful consideration, and "with a full appreciation of the gravity of its import." For whom does Bernard Maci donald's newspaper presume to speak? It is admittedly the official journal of the undesirable element, but beyond Mr. Macdonald and his scab friends, who in thii'community would care to be taken np by the Miner at the present time? The Liberal association will certainly repudiate all connection with the newspaper, and no one seeking public approval for parliamentary or municipal honorB would care to be supported by Barney's publication under its existing management. The Miner at times fakes itself very seriously and is always amufing when it does so. A newspaper which dared to assert in its news columns the other day that the demonstration on Friday night was "a fizzle" can not expect to be regarded as the truthful exponent of any section of public opinion in Rossland. No one imagines that Colistro and Beamish belong to the criminal class of the community, and as for being law breakers, their "crime" pales before the greater "oriminal" Bernard Macdonald, whose premeditated breaking of the alien labor act is known to every resident in the Kootenays. Satan rebuking sin is a mild description of Barney's attitude to the lately incarcerated workingmen, assuming for a moment that the men were technically to blame. The attack on Mr. Curtis is merely a continuation of the meth ods employed by Mr. Macdonald against organized labor ever since Mr. Heinze surrendered control of the Rossland Miner. Mr. Curtis is well able to defend himself.if any defence is necessary. Knowing him aB we do, we can well understand the hesitation displayed in the Miner's pleasing article of yesterday. We have always suspected the "lumber for Rossland of having anarchistic sen timents, and now that we know he is in full sympathy wilh the "violent class" we welcomo bim into the ranks of the bad, bad men whose record for lawlesfness, brutality and all other crime stands revealed to a suffering community by their actions during the months in which this industrial war lias so far dragged along. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Society always crucifies its greatest benefactors and then sits at their graves and weeps. Human nature is not envious of dead men, and is therefore willing to give them the credit that is their due.— Ex. The first issue of the Tribune, published at Marysville, East Kootenay, has reached the Would. Simpson & Hutchison are the proprietors. A few weeks since the townsite of Marysville was a wilderness, and now it is a bustling town with a live newspaper. Labor organizations all over the world are rapidly learning that the cornet way to settle all disputes is from a business standpoint; while sentiment is all right in. its proper place, it should never be allowed to interfere with the greatest good to the greatest number.—Union Record. The strength of a union depends entirely on the intelligence, stability and earnestness of its members. The permanency and progress of the general labor movement—that is, the advancement of the workers' interests—rests absolutely on the faithfulness of the unions to each other.—Union Record. The volume of retail trade in Rossland is yet restricted and a limited number only of the stores is profiting by the increased expenditure at the mineB. Any goods obtained by the new men on the hill are got on order from the paymaster and the supplying of these goods is confined to a few only of the stores.—Nelson Miner. The medical profession have been busy explaining that the nine deaths by lockjaw at Camden, N J., which followed Vacoination were caused by tetanus bacteria in the virus. Now Dr. Mitchell, secretary of the New Jersey board of health, reports that labratory examin ations of the vaccine demonstrated that no tetanus bacteria were present. The case has excited wide in terest and it behooves the medical faculty to ascertain exactly what caused the trouble which resulted in the death of nine people from lockjaw after being vaccinated.

B^BANNEIT, Xmas Cards i Calendars I AND € Xmas Papers AT The Nelson Miner of Saturday has the following to say on the civic situation here. The forthcoming civic election promises to be hotly contested. Heretofore the labor unions have not been united in municipal affairs and though .they may be said to have had one direct representative in each council, that representative has not had any marked effect on legislation. This year it will be different. An active canvas has been made to get on the list of voters every one who is qualified and it is the intention to run labor candidates in every ward. There is no question of first importance as an issue in" the contest and the chief mattors of difference between the parties are details of administration. Among these the police and license departments will come in for the largest amount of criticism. There is a strong feeling among the labor unionists against the gambling houses which have run without hindrance.cxcept for a few months, for three years. Then, too, the actions of the chief of police have not been as discreet as they might have been. The financial position of the city municipality is such that little remains for the next council to do but to attend to routine matters, 10 that the contests will resolve itself down to union and anti-union and at this stage it is impossible to say which party is likely to be successful. »*%*%**-%- %•%%%*%.

Southeast Kootenay is essentially a mining district, and is a country of vast possibilities in agriculture, lumbering- and other industries. During the past four years the Canadian Pacific railway company has had surveyors in the field every summer, ostensibly their business was to survey lands already crown-granted to that company. But the real fact of their being here waB to select the best lands in the valley, that when the B. C. Southern railway waB com pleted, * they would be able to secure the most arable land in the Kootenay valley under an act which gave them 20,000 acres per mile of constructed railway. The most important question that is before the people of Southeast Kootenay today is, the manner in which the provincial government has disposed of almost the entire district of Southeast Kootenay in railway land grants, not only for railways constructed in this district but for railways that do not approach within several hundred miles of its borders. During the past two years over 3,000,- 000 acres have been crown granted to the B. C. Southern as land grants. Southeast Kootenay contains an acreage of about 4,300,000 acres. The Canadian Pacific has received from the provincial government 3,400,000 acres. Instead of following out the agreements of their charter, "the taking of alternate sections on either side of said railways," it is taken in blocks, prospected, and practically selected by the railway company. We wonder if the government fully understood and had a knowledge of the future prospective-value of these enormous areas. As it is, -however, it is up to the present government to explain why these areas were reserved, and if reserved in the interest of the Canadian Pacific Kailway company. The crown granting of blocks 4594 and 4598 occurred daring the month of October last.—Fort Steele Prospector. ST. CHARLES HOTEL.

Editor Evening World. Dear Sir:—Happening to glance over the columns of the Miner the other day I was surprised to see a piece about the banquet being a fizzle. I would like to know if tbe editor was there or if he got his information from tbe two eavesdroppers who were at the door. I would suggest if the banquet did not Buit his friends it would have been a good policy not to mention it, or be honest in his report. I have been brought up to the motto "tell the truth and shame the devil," but I am afraid the editor's education haB been sadly neglected in this respect. Yours respectfully, Pro. Bono Publico. NOTES OF MINING Sample Assays From the Primrose-North Star to Start Work. The Paystreak says that ten inches of olean ore was found in the Iron Horse, on Ten Mile, last week. The Fort Steele Prospector says it is reported the North Star mine, whioh shut down a few days since, will resume operations in December. A report comes from Windermere that a strike of rich ore has been made on the Red Line, the ore running from 800 to 1000 ounces to the ton. Sample assays from the ore taken while driving a tunnel in the Primrose show that it averages about 1300 to the ton and about $125 of this is in gold. Development on the Primrose will continue throughout the winter. Charles Dempster, the Rossland promoter, has sold tie Champion group on Twelve Mile in the Slocan, to eastern parties. There are two claims in the group and the ore it oi the dry kind. A lllrthdajr Party.
