"Happy the Bride tbe Sun Shines on."
An exceedingly pretty bouse weddding
took place about 10 o'clock this mornin;;
in the charmingly decorated drawing
room of Mr. and Mir. E. W. Ruff's residence on Cliff street, in this city.
The contracting parties were Miss
Mary Belle Ruff, daughter of Mr. aud
Mrs. Ruff, well known in Roselund social
ciiclep, and Mr. Guy Irvine Siveney of
the Great Northern railway's gtmeral
offices, at Seattk).
The nuptial knot was tied by the Rev
J. Millen Robinson of St. Andrew's
Presbyterian church.
In Ihe drawing room this morning
over the temporary altar was suspended
a beautiful floral bell from which stream
ers ot white and yellow l-ibbbns were
tastefully draped, the colors of both
blending with the Bowers. The rest ol
the room was profusely decorated with
daffodils and white carnations prettily
intertwined with Oregon grape vine
turning the place into a veritable bower
of floral lovliness for the ceremony. Immediately behind the bell was an artistically arranged mound of rock decorated
with moss and flowers and forming an
effective background to the bridal couple
when they appeared for the solemn and
interesting service.
Miss Ruff, who made a most charming
bride, was attired in a very becoming
travelling gown of pearl grey broadcloth,
the bodice being of pearl grey taffeta
tucked silk with a bolero of Irish point
lace, and a chou of sunset pink pannel
velvet, and carried a bouquet of bridal
ro.es.
The, bride who was given away by her
father, was accompanied by Miss Mabel
Whitney as bridesmaid) Who was costumed in a pretty gown of caster ladies'
cloth, relieved by a cream-colored vest,
ind carried a bouquet of pink carnations.
The groom was supported by Mr. C.
II. Utquhurt, of S-jaltle, who came down
from Alaska to ack as best man on the
momentnous occasion, assisted by Mr.
Bruce T. Sweney, brother of the groom.
Invitations to the wedding were issued
lo the intimate fiiends of the contracting
parties here aud in the States, and after
the simple wedding service waa concluded the assembled guestd were enler-
taincd at a dejeuner, the bridal lable being most effectively decorated with
Sowers and yellow ribbon festoons.
Mr. and Mrs. Sweney left oil the noon
train for the honeymoon. They will
visit Chicago, St Paul and other eastern
Cities, most of the time being spent iu
Iowa where Mr, Sweney's relatives reside. Upon their re urn in about six
weeks time they will lake up their residence in Seattle.
Miss Ruff will be greatly missed in
church und social circles in Rossland,
where Bhe has long been a universal
favorite. Iluring the paat week she has
been entertained at a number of luncheon parties given in her honor by her
girl friends.
A large number of beautiful presents
weie received here by the bride, and
many were sent direct to her future home
in Seattle by friends of the contracting
parties in Ihe State*;

St. Louis, May 14.—The first
authentic information concerning
thc wreck of the City of Paducah,
which occurred at Brunkhoi-st
Lauding, Illinois late Sunday
night, was obtained early today.
Fifteen people lost their lives in the
catastrophe, six whites and nine
blacks.
The City of Paducah slopped at
Brunkhorst Landing at 8:30 o'clock
Sunday night and took on a load
jf corn. When in the act of backing away from the wharf the boat
swung around and bit the bank
heavily with her stern. A snag
imbedded in the bank tore an
enormous bole in the hull through
which tbe water rushed. She al
once began to settle and at the end
of three minutes nothlrg but her
riKif, Texas deck and pilot house
remained aboye the surface.
The impact with the hidden
snug, accompanisd as it was by the
noise caused by the shifting of the
cargo warned the passengers, The
ollicers acted with coolness and as
the boat settled, helpped the assen-
lo the cabin roof from which the
boats were launched.
The passengers lost all their belongings and had to be supplied
with clothing by those who were on
Bhore.
The City of Paducah lies in about
thirty feet of water and the loss
will be. total. She was valued at
116,000.

MINE REPORTS.
The report of Mr. llernard Macdonald, the general manager of the
I«e Roi No. 2, to tbe I.ondon hoard
concerning the mine up to the first
of last menth is interesting reading
and suggests the query why such
a report on the Centre Star and
War Kagle should not he made
public every month, or of tetter if
necessary. Incidentally there
would seem to be no good reason
why Mr. Macdonald's reports
should not be published here' simultaneously with their appearance
in the English papers.
The general manager states that
the arrangements made with the
Northport smelter last fall permitted the treatment of a maximum of
250 tons from the I<e Roi No. 2
and Great Western mines. The
shipments from Le Roi No. 2 were
first commenced last fall in a small
way hy sending a few cars of ore
each week to the Northpor smelter,
and this has been increased week
by week. The shipments thus far
have been made from ore coining
from the drives running through
the ore bodies or from the sill
floors of the stopes being opened
on the ore shoots. In only one instance have these stopes been extended aboye the first floor.
Turning to the question of values it is shown that the gross values of the 3400 dry tons shipped
during March from I.e Roi No. 2
equalled $55,419, or $16.61 per
ton, made up as follows: Gold,
$9.05; silver, 84c; copper, $6.72.
Allowing for the cost of mining,
freight and treatment and refining
it will be seen that the net return
to the company ou these 3400 tons
was between $6.75 and $7.00 per
ton, or about $22,950.
Altogether 8592 tons have been
shipped out, giving a gross return
of $165,485, or $19.26 per ton, the
net return received by the company
being between 858,000 and $60,000
to the date of the report.
Iu another column of this issue
will be found the details of the exploration and development work
accomplished, showing a total of
17,066 feet.
The mines under Mr. Macdonald's management are now looked
to to make the pace and set the
example in mining in this camp
and the reports of progress published every month will be watched
by all mining men with great interest. We repeat that it would
be of great service to the industry
if they were published here simultaneously with their appearance in
England.
THE CENSUS.
The census commissioner for this
district, Mr. Thomas Parker, has
stated that the returns for Rossland
city are now all in and it has been
whispered about the streets that
the totai population of the city will
be around 6500. It seems a piece
of official foolishness that the commissioners are prevented from giving out the total reported and that
the public should have to wait until the government blue book is
published for the information, and
no good purpose is served by Such
red tup«-tb. '
It is il e _-'-',eral belief that Rossland will rank as the third city of
the province with New Westminster a close fourth. Taking the
census in a mining camp is necessarily a difficult matter owing to
the floating nature of a portion of
the inhabitants and the difficulty
of getting at bona fide absentees.
No one desires to see the returns
padded, or show anything except
the actual fact regarding the population, but very naturally the community as a whole is ambitious
that the city should rank as high
as possible and that there should
be no omissions or blunders iu the
returns which will stand as our
record at this date for the next ten
years.
Victoria people have already
taken alarm at the manner in
which they claim the census of the
capital was taken and arrangements have been made by which
Victorians will take a census of
their own.
It is not expected that the details of the census, or any facts
concerning it, will be made public
by the officials at Ottawa for some
months yet but 6500 will be found
not far from the mark for Rossland.
MR. SMITH CURTIS.
The Toronto Globe in a recent
issue had the following to say
about the Rossland member in the
provincial house. We recommend
the editor of the morning paper to
carefully peruse the article in question as it may help him out of a
difficulty he has blundered into:
"Mr. Smith Curtis, one of the
most prominent members of the
opposition in the British Columbia
legislature, has hinted at an intention of retiring from public life at
the close of the current term. Mr.
Curtis' friends will regie t to hear
that this statement has been made
because of the unsatisfactory condition of his health.
"It would be unfortunate from
the public standpoint if the member from Rossland should find it
necessary to retire. Those who
have observed his public course
will agree that he is the sort of
man whom it is well to have iu
politics. He is a student of affairs
iu the wider sense, and his reading
and observation have imbued him
with progressive ideas,, while his
well balanced judgment restrains
him from attempting the impossible or the impracticable. He is a
fair and courteous opponent, and
of incorruptible character. He is
courageous in the advocacy of his
views. He has already won a
prominent place iu provincial politics, having been a member of the
former administration, and continuing to be a leading member of the
house when his party went into
opposition.
"II the precariousness of his
health is the only reason for his
desire to retire it may sincerely be
hoped that the reason will not long
exist, aud that even before the
present term has expired he may
feel himself sufficiently restored to
remain in public life."
Tomorrow will be pay day and
the readers and supporters of the
World should scan our advertising columns before making purchases. It fs only fair to support
those who in turn support your
paper.

Future of the Mine  as Stated  by the
Manager.
E. Nelson Fell, manager of the
Atlialiaseo, lias made tho following
statement with regard to the company's programme: "ln order to
strengthen the position and facilitate the future working of the miue
it has heen decided to curtail for
. two or three mouths the ore production and push on development
work. This course has been ren-
ilcied advisable fi'om the fact that
the shortness of water during tho
past four months has rendered development impossible. Advantage
Ol this temporary pause in outworking arrangements will be
taken to work up tho accumulated tailings in the cyanide plant."

—Scenes This Afternoon.
Albany, May 14:—The United
Traction Co. started out its Bret
car shortly alter 1" o'clock this
morning. When the doors of the
