Bruoe White put a foroe of six
men to work on the Noonday last
week. This property is principally
owned by Bruce and Byron White.
It waB located in '92 by Blaok

Nut Jaok and Hana Madsen. It is
on Cody creek, and waB the Becond
shipper in the Slocan. It haB not
been worked since 1896. In the
past $45,000 has been expended on
the property. It is a big lead and

amount of silver. Although only
a mile from the railroad it is somewhat handicapped by the lack of a
wagon road.
Vanoouver, Aug. 7.—Under the
charter which used to be known as
the V. V. and E., the Great Northern railway is continuing construction work at this end of the Coast
to Kootenay railway, there being
1000 men at work between New
Westminster and Sumas. The
latter town whioh is just within
Washington state, is already feeling the benefits of construction.
Advices from there state recent
trials and tribulations are forgotten
threats to leave the town are withdrawn and those who were hurrying to sell their property are now
snatching it back from the market.
The Great Northern is building
a number of small lines hereabouts
which will make a sort of network
over the rich farming section of the
lower Fraser valley and oonnect
with Vancouver, making this a big
market town. Already the Delta
country has been served, the line
from New Westminster to Vancouver is well under way and this new
construction by way of Chilliwack
to the boundary at Sumas will add
a valuable freight produoing and
reoeiving region to the oompany.
At present the lines are being
run aB separate from the Great
Northern. For instance, the extension from New Westminster to
this oity is known as part of the
Vancouver,Westminster and Northern Railway. That from the Royal
City to Sumas is oalled the V. V. &
E., while the Delta line is part of
the Viotorial Terminal system.
When the bridge over the Fraser
river at New WestminBter is completed these lines will naturally fit
the one into the other. The million dollar bridge is the great connecting link.

Vancouver, Aug. 7.—The identity of the masked robber who
burglarized the home of millionaire
T. S. Lippy at Seattle last Sunday
evening, and incidentally used Mr.
Lippy very roughly and left him and
the servant girl bound and gagged
has been fully established. He is
George Van Horst, a native of Victoria, where his parents, industrious and respectable people, still re-
Bide. He is now in the hands of
the Seattle police, to whom when
arrested he gave the name of Fraud
Humboldt, alias George Vanasselt.
Not only has he freely confessed
his part in the Lippy affairs, but
he boastfully admits participation
in numerous other crimes, ranging
from pocket picking to train robbery, and seem to glory in his evil
notoriety. He refuses to disclose
the identity of his companions,
although he haB led the officers to
the cache of the stolen property
and thus enabled it to be restored
to Mr. Lippy.
Van Horst from his early boyhood has been bad. the natural
criminal instinct is happily seldom
found so strongly developed. Beginning with window break
ing and the theft of lead pipe from
vacant houses, he gradually "worked up" until, as the leader of a
gang of dishonest youths, he was
convicted of burglary at Viotoria
and sentenced to six years imprisonment in the penitentiary,
that being in October 1897.
When he was only 19 years of
age lie was taken to New Westminster to serve the term, but was
transferred shortly thereafter to
Stony Mountain, Manitoba, from
which be had but a few months
ago been discharged.
In Viotoria he gained espeoial
notoriety when less than 15 by organizing and direoling in systematic burglary a gang of eight lads,
none of whom was as old as he waB.

Kaelo, Aug. 7.—W. B. Poole, resident manager and principal owner of the Ophir-Lade and Oyater-
Criterion groups of mines in the
Trout Lake district, came in last
night on the steamer Kokanee from
the now famous Poplar camp. Mr.
Poole is a cool, level-headed business man who has demonstrated
his ability in oonneation with the
Nettie L.J Triune and Silver Cup
mines, and is now making a grand
success of the properties whioh he
is operating. He has with him
samples of ore the equal of whioh
has never been before seen by the
oldest miner in the country. Knobs
of gold stringers and filigrees of
the precious metal literally cover
the large pieces of white quartz and
tellurium bearing rock now on exhibition at the hotel here where
crowds pushed each other in their
efforts to see and handle the chunks
of virgin wealth. Some of the samples are a combination of telluride
and mispickle. assaying upwards
of $16,009 per ton, while picked
samples gave returns of fabulous
amounts.
Mr. Poole states that he has concluded arrangements for the purchase of the Lucky Jack group
owned by Hamilton, O'Connor and
Morgan, for a price, whioh he admitted, exceeded one hundred
thousand dollars. He says Poplar
and Rapid creek camps have every
indication of proving immense dividend payers in the very near future and the mining world will
stand aghast at the riches that are
going to be produced from tnat district.
"In my experience I have never
Been anything to equal what has

now some one thousand and upwards, of proHpectors who are securing gold in paying quantities.
I believe that the celebrated Cripple oreek and kindred _ camps are
going to be eclipsed and I stake
my reputation on the fact that the
leads will go down. This has
already been proven at a depth of
four hundred feet on Fish creek.
Marquis and Gilbert are sinking

faith is shown by my investments.

THE SPORT   OF KINGS.
We are about .to be inundated
with international yaobting contests—the Seawanhaka Cup, tbe
Canada's Cup, and the America
Cup in the order named—and the
feature ol cost crops up, says the
Toronto Telegram. In the first
two contests, both held in Canada,
the amount of cash involved is
trifling, compared with the third.
Maintaining a racing stable is a
cheap pastime contrasted with
challenging lor the America Cup.
Sir Thomas Lipton estimates the
cost ol this year's dash at a trifle
over a million dollars. Shamrock
III will have oost $500,000 by the
end ol the season. The previous
Shamrocks cost a million to build
and race. The remaining odd
half million buys cigarettes lor the
racing orew and covers suoh incidentals aB the maintenoe of the
steam yachts Erin and Cruiser ancl
the tenders whioh accompany the
Lipton fleet.
The Americans end ol the contest is run a little less lavishly.
The Reliance syndicate has invested 1300,000, and this amount is
supposed to cover the cost oi racing her. Columbia and Constitu
tion were already built, but their
expenses and the trial races would
run up to $200,000, so tbat the
defence is spending hall a million.
A million and a hall dollars spent,
in one years over a trifling silver] upon it
reasons, despite the action taken by
the Imperial government elsewhere,
notably in Queensland and South
Africa, lo plaoe a similar restriction on Japanese bo that the coast is
now filling up with Japanese and
thereby preventing the influx of
white settlers to serve in the much
needed upbuilding of this province.
> 11 this is true enough but when
the Miner this morning makes it a
charge against Liberals avowedly
in Conserative interests it is making a very great mistake. For the
Conservatives record iB infinitely
worse than that of the Liberals.
For years the growth of the Orien
tial in population iu thia British Columbia has been agitated as a serious
drawback to the province. At the
present time that whioh was fore
told years ago and vainly urged upon the Conservative party has
come lo pass, namely, that the
Oriental would crowd out the white
population. He has ousted the mar
ket gardener, the coal miner, the
fisherman, the lumberman and the
domestic servant. His presence is
a militant deterrent to immigration. The Conservatives would do
nothing in the matter. A Commission of Enquiry was appointed
but, unlike Laurier, no aotion waB
taken upon it. All that was done
to still the growing publio indignation was to put on a head tax of
$50, which was far too small to be
of the slightest service, and even
this was delib3rately suspended in
order to allow Contractor Onder-
dunk of the C. P. R, to import
thousands of Chinese to build that
railroad. That is to say that British Columbia insisted on the extension of a transcontinental railway clear to Vancouver -as the
price of federation, and in return
was flooded with Chinese who
from that date to this, have been
the greatest bar to the proper development of this province. Laurier
truly has not gone far enough, but

go far farther if the people insist

THE GROCERS
CONSERVATIVE PLATFORM
[Adopted at Revelntoke, September 13thf 1902.]
1. That thlH convention reaffirms tho policy
of the party in matter*, of provincial roads and
trails; the ownership and control of rail way 8
and the development of the agricultural resources of the province as laid down in the
platform adopted in October, 18!Kt, which in as
follows i
"To actively aid in the construction of trails
throughout the undeveloped portions of tho
province and tho building of provincial trunk
roads of public necessity.
"To adopt the principles of government ownership of railways iu so far as the circumstances of the province will admit, and the
adoption of the principle that no bonus should
be granted to nny railway company which
docs not give tho govornment of the province
control of rates over lines bonusod, together
with the option of purchase.
"To actively assist by state aid in the devol
opmentof the agrlcullurul resources of tho
provinoe."
2. That in the meantime and until the railway policy above set forth can b.i nrrntnplish-
ed, a general railway act be passed giving
freedom to construct railways under c.rtnin
approved regulations, analogous to the system
that has resulted in such extensive railway
const met Ion in 1 hfl 11 nl t od St ai es, wit h ho
much advantage to trade and commerce.
3. That to encourago the niii.lng industry,
the taxation of metalliferous mines should be
on lhe basisof apercontageon the not profits.
1. That the government ownership of tele
phone syHlenis should be brought about ns a
first step in I In- ai-i.tii-.il tmi nf public utilities.
6. That a portion uf every eoal area hereafter to be disposed of should be reserved from
sale or lease, so that slale owned mines may be
easily accessible, if t heir operation becomos
necessary or advisable.
(I. Thnt in the pub> land leases provision
should be made for reforesting aud that steps
should be taken for the general preservation of
forests by guarding against the wasteful destruction of timber.
7. That the legislature and government of
the province should persevere In the effort to
secure tho exclusion of Asiatic labor.
8. That the matter of better terms iu the
way of subsidy aud appropriations for the

lead products imported into Canada, and that
the .Conservative members of the Dominion
House be urged to support any motion Introduced for such a purpose,
10. That as industrial disputes almost invariably result in great loss and injury both to the
iwrtius directly concerned and to tho public,
legislation should be passed to provide means
for an amicable adjustment of such disputes
betweeu employers aud employes.
..ll. That It Is advisable to fosler tho manufacture of thc raw produels of Ihe province
within the provinco as far as practicable by
means of laxal Ion on thesaid raw products.sub-
ject to rebate of the same in whole or part

Conservative Conventions
At a meeting of tho executive of the Provincial Conservative AssocialIon, held at Vancouver, the province was divided into Ave divisions for organization purposes. The Koote-
nay-Boundary division Is made up of tho following provincial olection districts: Revol-
Btoko, Columbia, Fernie, Cranbrook, Ymir,
Kaslo, Slocan, Grand Forks, Greenwood, the
City of Rossland and the City of Nelson. At
the same meeting thc following resolutions
were adopted:
1. That conventions for nominating candidates for members of the legislative assembly
be made up of delegates chosen as follows:
(a) ln city electoral districts, one delegate
for every fifty and fraction of fifty votes polled
at the provincial election held ln 191)0. and if
the citv is divided into wards, the proportion
of delegates for each ward shall be based on
the voto polled in each ward at the last municipal election.
(b) In other electoral districts, one delegate
forevory fifty or fraction of fifty votes polled
at the provincial elect ion held in 1900, the delegates to be apportioned to polling places, or as
near thereto as will be fair to the voters ol the
different neighborhoods.
'I. The election of delegates shall be at public meetings, held at a designated central place
in each polling division, or in each ward iu city
electoral districts, if the city is divided into
wards. At such public meetings only those
who pledge themselves to vote for thc candidate or candidates selected nt the nominating
convention shall be entitled to a vote for dele-
gales
3. Two weeks notice shall be given of the
public meetings at which delegates arc to be
elected, and nominating conventions shall be

PHOENIX
PROCESS
New System of Reducing
Sulphides.
AN ENTIRELY NEW DEPARTURE
Process Has Yet to Be  Proven to
Be Commercially Possible.
The Phoenix process for the reduction of sulphide ores, Bays the
London Mining Journal, which, if
it realizes the hopes of its joint inventors, Messrs. Ashoroft and
Swinburne, will work a fundamental change in the treatment of
complex ores, has been developed
for Bome years both in the laboratory and the works, and the inventors claim for it that the results aobieved upon the ton soale
support the conclusions of the test
tube and orucible. In his original
contribution to the Institution of
Mining andl Metallurgical Engineers Mr. Ashcroft described tbe
following four stages as the essentials of a "cyolio procesB," by whioh
"all the ni.taln and sulphur are
reoovered with losses whioh are
surprisingly small, and without
the consumption of any description of fluxes"— 1—The displacement of sulphur (or other elements)
from combination with metals in
an ore, by means of chlorine gas in
the dry way. 2—The substitution
of one metal for another in a mixture of fused chlorides by precipitation with a metal (or.alternative-
ly, the fractional electrolysis of the
mixed chlorides in a fused state).
3—The separation of silioioua
gangue (whioh is nnacted upon)
from the final metallic chloride by
settling and decantation, and
washing the residues in water (or,
alternatively, by distillation of the
ohloride from the residues), purifying tbe final chloride, boiling
down the wash solutions, if any,
and preparing the ohloride for electrolysis. 4—The electrolytio decomposition of the final chloride
for the recovery of its metal and
ohloride, and pumping the chlorine
gas to a suitable pressure. The
prooeas turns on the stated discovery that Bulphide ores can be
decomposed on a large soale by
chlorine so as to give off sulphur,
and not its ohloride, and should
such a system be per footed to the
pitch of oommercial workability,
"a possible turning point affecting
a vast field of metallurgy" has, in
faot, been reached.
While the Phoenix process is a
new departure in the directness
with whioh the way Ib out to the
desired result, the intervening difficulties—of whioh there are undoubtedly many—being attacked
with resolution rather than avoided
with ingenuity, it is, on the other
hand, in its essentials, an immediate recurrence to the attractive
cyolio idea, whioh has latterly undergone no little danger of final
abandonment at the hands of the
metallurgist as an unrealizable
goal. There is an alluring perfection and symmetry about the ideal
metallurgical oyole, with its fixity
of results, avoidance of waste and
meohanioal regularity, which
makes it difficult not to hope that
Messrs. Ashcroft and Swinburne
have at last succeeded in sketching
out its main lines on a practical
footing. That the matter presents
itself to the inventors not as a dig
tant ideal but as an accomplished
actuality is clear. The -process is
definitely described by them as
'-'perfectly cyolical." "The ohlorine
merely goes round," says Mr. Swinburne; "the works takes in ore and
electrical energy, and turns out
metal_,sulphur and gangue." Mixed
ores whicb are absolutely refractory
and otherwise useless, yield readily
to treatment; concentration, except
for merely eliminating the gangue
becomes wholly, unnecessary; the
presence of several metals raises no
obstacle. No metal is lost or
brought out impure; contemporary
metallurgical processes whioh
smelt for one only and reject the
others as a "by-product," or even
ae a worthless nuisance, are left far
behind. The Broken Hill slimes,
containing zinc, lead, iron, silver,
and gangue, at present aocumulat-
"as a monumental memorial to the
barbarity of present smelting processes," disappear 'like snow upon
the desert's dusty face.' "Hot
treatment with ohlorine oonverts
the whole of the metals into
chlorides, producing a broth of
fused chlorides and gangue. The
silver is extracted by substitution
of lead, the lead is extracted by
substitution of zino, and the iron
is thrown out as ferric oxide, not
as metal, zino oxide being used as
substitute, and the gangue is got
out by filtration. We have them
nothing left but zino chloride, and
this is electrolysed to yield zinc
and chlorine."

Now Is the Time to Buy Lots
in Similkameen City, B. (2.
CAMP HEDLEY Is the most talked of camp in tbe province, and situated in the oentre is Similkameen City, surrounded by
rich mineB whioh will shortly have large payrolls. Over 200 lots have been sold to business people who realize that Similkameen will become the metropolis of this dintriot. The Nickel Plate mines have expended 1300,000 in development and are at
present building tramways and a 40-stamp mill. Arrangements are being made for the erection of a large smelter at Similkameen City which will cost about a million dollars. Besides the Nickel Plate group ol olaims being developed by one of the richest
mining companies in North America, there are several other groups and properties whioh will shortly be developed, among them
being the Kingston Mines, Rollo, Wellington, Winnipeg, Red Chief and Pollock. Situated as it is in the beautiful Similkameen
valley, midway between Princeton and Keremeos, and protected from all opposition in the valley by adjoining a large Indian
reservation, this townsite will become one of the principal mining camps of the Pacifio Northwest. It was only a short time ago
that lots in Rossland, Nelson, Greenwood and other mining centres were selling for the same prioe that they are today being sold
for in Similkameen.   Come in before the boom and double your money.
Similkameen City to Have Two Railways.
The Viotoria, Vancouver A Eastern and the Canadian Pacific railways are starting immediate construction for the Similkameen,
whioh will make this town a railroad centre and divisional point, and when theBe competing lines are completed through to the
Pacific ooast Ihey will beoome the main through lines, being the shortest route from the interior to the coast. A large sawmill is
running steadily on the west addition, the only available timber for miles around. The main street is 90 feet wide, being all
cleared and ready for building purposes. All railways, roads, telegraph and telephone lines will have to come through this
townsite which is looated in the centre of the whole Similkameen valley and will beoome the largest distributing point and
mining oentre in British Columbia.
Similkameen City Lots Will Make You Rich.
A large agricultural area to draw from.   Pure water, fine climate, rich mines, big payrolls.

HOW SULPHURETS ARE CLEANED

However, Is Unusually
Clean.
losing any oil in the tailings. The
loss of the oil appears to be entirely
in the concentrates, and if it is important it oan all be washed out by
suitable extractor.
"These are the chief points in
connection with the operation, and
although it might appear to be a
very greasy and dirty one, in a
well constructed plant designed on
tbe Elmore line, it is perfectly
clean.   AH the handling oi tbe oil
done by machinery panicularly
designed to do the work and tbe
place is as clean as a well arranged
gold mill would be."
"The oil preferred in the Elmore
process, is a good,thick, residual oil
the oil mostly used by Elmore having been the paraffin oils, the Peun
Bylvania oils, such, for example, as
an oil   about  the  consistency  of
what is commonly called cylinder
oil, whioh iB pretty thick and rather
viscid.   The oil is fed very abundantly.  For example, to treats ton
of ore they use from a third to a
half   and    sometimes' a    whole
ton    of    oil,    but    as  the   oil
is    used   over   and over   again
tbat does not make much difference,
The oil is usually of a specific grav
ity of about .9, so a ton of oil would
be able to oarry perhaps a load of
100 to 200 pounds of sulphurets.
"As the material flows out of the
mixing cylinder, the tailings pass
away and are usually low enough
to be rejected, the oil that flows
over is caught in an overflow tank
and it carries its load of sulphurets
very well (unless they beoome overloaded) and they flow off in the
surface of tbe overflow tank, and
then run into a vessel where tbey
are heated. They are heated to
about 100 degrees Fahrenheit,ora
little hotter, depending on the
thickness ol the oil, so that the oil
is made thin and limpid. Tbis is
quite important. The material is
then run into the centrifugal ma
chine, and some find it as well to
have a little hot water in there first.
The water and sulphurets are
thrown to the outside, the oil pass
es to the inside, the sulphurets pass
through the water and strike the
wall of the oentrifugal and stay
there. Meanwhile, water is fed in,
also hot, and it displaces the oil,
washes the oil out from the sulphur
ets, and the oil flows to the inside
and is discarded, amd is used over
again after having been cleaned in
this fashion. There is still some
water left in the centrifugal, to-
gether with a little oil, and after
the large-sized centrifugal gets full
it holds about 1000 pounds of concentrates. The bottom ol the oen
trifugal is then raised up, and the
material iB hoisted into a sooond
centrifugal with perforated baskets
on the outside and a oloth lining
In this tbe sulphurets are separated from the water with whioh they
were formerly mixed after driving
the oil out, and in this condition
they are ready for the market.
There is still a little residual oil
adhering to the sulphurets, which
oan be at once removed by using
gasoline or some material of that
cort, but usually this is not neces
sary. and it is an advantage to
have a little a oil there, in case the
sulphnrets have to be made into
briquets for tbe smelting furnaoe.
"The amount of oil wasted in
the process is said to run from 1 to
3 gallons per ton of ore, but it de
pends more on the amount of sulphurets than it does on the amount
of ore treated. Ores containing a
great deal of sulphurets will absorb
more oil than those containing less.
There seems to be no necessity lor
Come and see us at   the  Strand, you
will be treated right. Green & Comerford
