Enormous ?ale of Manitoba Lands-

November.
Victoria, Dec. 2.—D. S. 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,-

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.

Landlord of the CentraL

Experience.
Mr. Jackson—Mr. Jackson of

last night.
The scab landed on the landlord
fair and Bquare, a regulation Jeffries blow, on the left jaw—and
broke it, Doctors call it a fracture,
but "broken" is just as effective'
and shorter.
What started tbe row or how
the "other fellow" fared is not
known in union circles, but tbe
landlord patient is described aB
doing as well as could be expected
under the painful circumstances
of the case.
Mr. Jackson has entered a suit
against the Phoenix union for
blacklisting him, but presumably
he will now have a blacklist of his
own.

GENERAIJULLER

SAYS HE CANT TALK IN PUBLIC
Queen Alexandra's 57th Birthday-
A Much Beloved Queen—What
Happened 30 Years Afro.
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.
Queen Alexandra yesterday celebrated the 57th anniversary Ot her
birthday. This is a pathetic one #•■<
in the lives of the King and Queen, JS
On December 1st, thirty years ago,
the King, then the Prince of Wales,
regained consciousness after lying
for several days at the brink of
death. His first words in recovering were: "This is the Princesses'
birthday." As Princess of Wales.
Qi; en Alexandra won the love of
all, especially that of the pour, who
have always found in her a friend
who never grew tired in good
works. ■;

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.

The Rev. 0. F. WELLS, of Villa
Ridge, 111., says: "Your trial bottle of
Asthmalene received in good condition.
I cannot tell you how thankful I (eel
for ihe good derived from it. I was a
slave, chained with putrid sore thro it
and Asthma (or ten years. I despaired
of ever being cured. I saw your advertisement lor the euro of this dreadful
and tormenting disease, Asthma, and
thought you had overspoken yourselves,
but resolved to give it a trial. To my
astonishment, the trial acted like a
charm.   Kend me a full size bottle."
The Winnipeg Trades and Labor
Council has adopted  the following
platform to be presented to all Can
didates for municipal honorB:
1. Abolition   of  property quali
fication for all public offices.
2. Abolition of the ward system
and election at large.
3. Adult suffrage in all alder
manic elections.
4. Abolition of the contract system in all public works of construction and improvement.
5. The retention and acquisition
of all public franchises by the city.
6. All civic work and supplies

commenced taking it about the firs, of November. I very soon noticed a radical
improvement. After using one bottle her Asthma has disappeared and she is entirely free from all symtoms. I teel tnat I can consistently recommend the medicine to all who are afflicted with this distressing disease.

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.

COMMUNICATION.
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.

METEOR
is the new high-grade mining
cainp in the south half of the Colville Reservation, seven miles west of the Columbia river, eight miles southwest of Daisy and 28
miles by .^ood road from Meyers Palls. The town-
site is in thc centre of tne rich aggregation of
mines comprising the Meteor, Stray Dog, White
Swan and Given groups, all of whioh are working
in high-grade shipping ore. A great number of
very promising properties are opening up in the
vicinity. It is surrounded by a splendid agricultural, fruit growing and stock raising country,
unequalled in the northwest, and has a splendid
supply of timber for building and mining purposes, together with unlimited water power near
It has already, besides a store, a number of buildings in course of erection, and a telephone service,
saw mill, etc., will be in operation within a short
time. Meteor is a high-grade camp of the real
Leadville type, the ores mined being gold, silver,
lead and copper. Picked assays have given as high
as $140,000 to the ton, the average of the camp
being about $35. You can't afford to forget Meteor.
Now is your time to  get in at bed-rook prices.
