CAMBORNE
MINING CO.
Preparing to Work.
All stock in the Northwestern Development syndicate or the Gold
Finch Mining company which has
not been exchanged lor stuck in tbe
Camborne Mining company, with the
assessment ol live cents a share on llie
Camborne stock paid, is now delinquent and is being sold by the Camborne Mining company tor the price
of tbe assessment, five cunts a share
on the Camborne stock, whioh is
equivalent to 11 cents a share ou the
Northwestern stock.
Secretary John B, Curtis, oi Cal-
uinel, reports lhat there iB equivalent
nf ubout 75,0011 slum's of Camborne
stock delinquent, und uf this amount
between 15,000 and 20^000 shares wore
sold ou Deo. 12th, and loth,,those being the first two days of dellnqtionoy.
He says that the finauoialcondition
ol this concern is now better I ban it
ur any of its predecessors bus been
since December, 1902, when the
Northwestern Development syndicate
lirst begun to incur an indebtedness,
From that time forth the financial
situation grew gradually worse, until
entire liquidation was averted only by
a fow of the heaviest stockholders
forming a triisleu's company which
issued a blanket mortgage, nnd paid
off tbe indebtedness, at the same timo
preventing a sheriff's Bale.
This mortgoge of $15,0110 is now thu
only claim of any nature against the
property, quit claim deeds to (he entire group of claims and all equipment
having been secured. Tbe property is
entirely out of danger from loieolosuro,
as the mortgage syndicate is composed of tho stockholders who have
tbe greatest interests at stake, being
composed, at tbe same lime, of some
uf the strongest and most trustworthy
financial Interest, of tbe copper country.
There is now in the company's
treasury a (und ol between $5,0011 and
$11,000, derived (rum the present
assessment nud delinquent stuck sale.
Thero are uu plana to begin any work
on the property until Ibis fund is
materially strengthened und enough
is iiii baud to make an attack that
will promise suine ilelinile results.
Thestampmill is said tube in good
condition and a watchman is looking
after its safekeeping.
There nro two methods by whioh
more money may be raised—tlm further sale of stock or the culling of
another assessment. It bus not been
determined which method shall be
followed.
Tbe stock in the Camborne Mining
company is issued in the names of tho
stockholders but is nut delivered to
them at present, It is turned over to
the First National Hank in Calumet
and a receipt fur it is issued by tbe
bank to the stockholders, while thu
bank will bold the stock in escrow
until such time us the mining company has satisfactorily financed the
undertaking—Mining Gazette, Calumet, Mich.

boats and gear were rotten.

the remains of men, women and children whioh have so far been recovered.
So many bodies were thrown up that
il wns impossible to do more than
haul thuin to places uf safety.
Many bodies have been so terribly
pounded and bruised by contaot with
tlm rocks that idontiiicutisn may bo

Sound and rescued. The drowned

while just as the island bench whs
readied another went insane and
rushed into tbe ocean.
Twenty-two other* were picked up
Oil a rait.
The condition of the survivors was
pitiable,
They wen- hall frozen and practically unconscious Irom tlio exposure.
The sight of the pour creatures on
tbo raft brought tears to the eyes ot
the sailors on the rescuing vessel.

man. His snow white hair and pallid
features were creased nnd torn by tbe
Hying spray.

0, P. It. WANTS ELECTRIC POWER
A letter was read from W. Cross,
who is in charge of C. P. R. mechanical department, asking quotation, for
50 b. p. electrical power.
R. Gordon was called in and said an
expenditure of $6,500 to put in a new
machine and equipment would enable
the power to bo provided. A sluicegate would be required to allow of continuous running. A Btcam plant
would cost $111,000 to $20,000 to install and would require an income ol
$9,000 to maintain it. It would be a
long time before the city could got
that revenue. It was a mistake they
did not put in a power machine instead of the new one thoy bought. Ho
pointed that nut to the bite Mayor but
lie was opposed to it.
Tbe Mayor suggested referring the
matter to the Fire, Water and Light
Committee to go fully into with Mr.
Cross.
Aid. Abrahamson pointed out it
would be necessary tu ascertain what
minimum power would be used daily,
as it would not (lo for the city to go to
the expense of putting in a plant and
then find they were not getting
enough revenue from it to make it
pay.
On motion of Aid. Palmer, seconded
by Aid. Tapping, the matter wus re-
(erred to the committee to investigate
nnd report.

Portugal's assurance to the world
Hint the slave trade his been stopped through the establishment of
Portuguese military stations alung
the slavo-trado route is discounted
by Mr, Nevison in bis language:
"There are two ferries over the
Ciinnzu, one close under the Portuguese fort, the other a comfortable
distnnco upstream, well out of ob-
Bervation, It is a typically Portuguese arrangement, The commandant's duly is lo stop the slave trade
but how con he he expected to see
what is going on a milo.or so away!
Even as you come down to the river
you find slave shackles banging on
the bushes. You cross the stream
in dugout canoes, running tlm chance
of being upset by one of thn hippos
which snort and pant a little farther up. You enter the forest again
and now the shackles arc thick upon
the trees. This is tbo place whoi'o
most of the slaves, being driven
down Irom the interior, ore untied.
It is safe to let them loose here.
The Cuauza is just in front, and behind llu-in lies the lung stretch of
Hungry Country, which they could
never get through alive il they tried
to run hack to their homes. So it
ia that the trees on (he western edg>)
of the Hungry Country boor shackles
in profusion—shackles for (he hands,
shackles for lho feet, shackles for
three or four slaves who are clamped together at night. The drivers
hang them up wilh lho idea of using
them again when they return for the
next consignment of human merchandise; bul, as a rule, I think, they
find 11 easier tu make new shackles
as they arc wanted.
"A shackle is easily made. A native hacks out nn oblong hole in a
log of wood with an axe; it must be
big enough for two hnmlB or two
feet, tn pass through, nnd then a
wooden pin is driven through tho
hole from aide lo side, an that the
blinds or feet runout stir until it is

THE TRAFFIC GROWS,
"For many months after the war
even the trafiic to San Thome almost ceased. It lms begun again
now, and is rapidly increuslng. An
order was issued in December, 19U4,
rcqblrlng the government agents to
press on the supply. Hut at present
tho slaves ne coining down in smaller gangs. 'I"hey are not, aa a rule,
tortured; they are shackled only at
nigtil, and tho traders lake a certain
amount ul pains to conceal the
whole traffic, ur nt least to mako
it look respectable.
"As to secrecy, they ore not entirely successful. A man whose word
no olio in Central Africa would think
ot doubling hns jusl sent down notice Irom the Interior lhat a gang ot
251) slaves passod through thu Nuna-
kandundu district, bound for tbo
coast, in tho end of February
(I90.->), shackles and all. The man
who brought the message had done
his best'to avoid" the gang, fearing
for his life. I ought to have met
them near Mashlko if they had not
taken a by-path or been broken up
into small groups.
"It was such a small group that
I met within u day's journey of Cal-
nla, the largest truding-liouse in
lliho. I wns walking nt about half
an hour's distance from the road,
when suddenly I camo upon a parly
of eighteen or twenty buys and four
men hidden in the bush. At sight of
mo they nil ran awny, the men driving (he boys before them. But they
left two long ehicottes ur ajnmlioks
(hide whips) hanging on the trees,
ns well as the very light loads they
had with them. After a time I returned, and they ran away again.
1 then noticed that they posted a
man on a tree-tup to observo my
movements, and ho remained there
till I trekked on with my own people."
STOLEN FROM THEIR PEOI'LE.
Of his meeting with another slave
caravan Ihe writer suys:
"My carriers dnlecled them at
unco, and I heard the word "apekn"
(slaves) passed down Hie line oven
before I camo in (right of them. Tho
caravan numbered seventy-eight in
ull. In front and rear were lour
men with guns, and there wero six
uf them in tho centre. Tho wholo
caravan wns organized with a precision that one never finds among
Ireo carriers, and nearly tho whole
of it consisted of boys under 1-1.
This in Itsolf would ho almost conclusive, for no trade caravan would
contain anything like that proportion of hoys, whereas boyB arc the
most easily stolen from native villages In tho Interior, and, on the
whole, they pay tho cost of transport, best.
"The importation of slaves from
tho interior Into Angola may not bo
what it was. It may not be conducted under the old methods. There
is no longer that, almost continuous
procession of chained and tortured
men and Women which all travelers
who crossed the Hungry Country before 10(11! describe. For the moment rubber hns berome nimnat as

SAILORS' TROUSERS.
British Jack Tars Would Like a
New Uniform.
The British public has su long
associated the "handy man" of tho
navy with Whut is termed "sailor
clothes" thut it will como as a
shuck to learn that it is the seamen
of lho fleet themselves who nre almost unanimous in asking for a
change of uniform.
'The objections to the present dress
are many. However well Bulled it
was to the day when Ihe seaman's
work lay in the direction ul handling
spars and sails and hauling ropes,
it is not adapted to modern conditions, where the seaman is really tt
skilled mechanic, The buggy trousers arc apt to catch in the machinery, and are really a nui-ance. 'The
open "jumper" is viewed by tho
men with (he utmost disfavor, and
it has been known to them for
by the suggestive name of
nionia catcher."
The uniform proposed by
who appear to express the views of

loosely und comfortably around the
neck nnd body, with a turned-down
collar, single-breiisted, Willi live

THE SCHOOL TRUSTEE ELECTIONS.
It is an old saying that once a
lie gets a start it is hard to overtake it, In connection with the
late school trustee election- for this
city a Blory was actively circulated
f,.,r some time before the election
that tbe late chairman of the
Board and another of the candidates had in view making a change
in the headmastership of the public
school. None who knew these men,
and the high estimation in which
they hold the teaching staff, be
lieved the canard, but tbe story
was confimed by some who ought to
have known better, apart from those
who circulated it for purely mischievous and personal reasons. In
justice to the men affected we have
investigated the charge most thoroughly and find, as we expected,
there is not a word of truth in it.
All who were connected with its
circulation should be ashamed of
themselves.
We si all be glad to show any
persons interested the correspondence in our possession on tlie matter, proving beyond question (he
gross wrong done these men. Mr.
Lindmark has been connected with
the Kevelstoke school for many
Thu Attorney-general has introduced a bill consolidating and
amending tho municipal law, and
milking better provision for bylaw
powers thun have hitherto existed.
The late oity council sent in some
suggestions for amendment of the
existing law, and the opportunity
is one which the city councils
throughout the province should
take advantage of to make suggestions to the government with a
view to overcoming any dilliculties
of administration they have found
in the existing laws.
The amending bill introduced by
the Chief Commissioner provides
thnt all timber cut on Crown lands
must be used or manufactured in
the province, and in case of this
not being done the leaso shall be
cancellod. As an alternative provision is made that the government may seize timber which il is
proposed to oxport und refuse to
release same until such security is
given as shall ensure its being manufactured in the province.
With reference to our article in
iast issue on reducing the electric
light rates in the city, we arc informed the rale at New Westmin
ster is 12c. against 17c, the rate
for Revelstoke.

C. P. R. Freight Train Runs

On Wednesday night a. No. 96 wn,
on her way from Vancouver east, and
Hearing Kamloops, the engine broke
down and the train had to be stopped
for temporary repairs. A brakeniun
wa, sent back to llag against any rear
trains and the repairs having been
effected the Bagman was called in.
On stinting again, however, It, was
found the engine refused to work and
the llagmaii was sent out again, but
before reaching hi, point a freight
train, with Engineer T. .Sweeney in
charge of the engine, came along and
run into the passenger train badly
damaging the pullman car.
The result might have been eerioua
but for the presence uf mind of Conductor Risteen, who saw the light of
the (rcighl train and immediately
signalled the engineer to move on
with a view to lessening the shock
and giving the freight train time to
pull up.
The passengers paid the highest
encomium, to Conductor Risteen for
the action ho took and whioh undoubtedly fined the passenger train
from more serious consequence
It is stilted the peculiar circumstances of the accident are snob that
no one waa to blame lor it, but an
investigation will be held by the 0. P.

may make the labours ol parliament
appear Intolerably tedious to nn onlooker, there is no doubt thnt it is a
great aid to tbe prompt despatch ol
business.
The Attornoy-Gcnoral introduced
"An Act to consolidate uud amend
tho 'Municipal Clauses Act' and
amending Acts," which passed its
lirst rending.
Drury (Victoria City) had givon
notice for a motion that an order be
granted for a return showing number
of timber lenses grunted during lilOf)
on Vancouver Island with names ol
lessees, area leased, and amount of
bonus paid. Dr. King (Cranbrook)
moved this motion, as Drury was nut
in tbe House.
Buwser (Vancouver) asked if the
Government bud any comespondence
since they took olliee with the
authorities at Ottawa in relation to
the granting of a lease of Stanley
Park at Vancouver. Answered in tbe
affirmative.
Evan, (Cowichan) was troubled
about one Henry Fry, a civil engineer,
and wanted lo know whether he waB
paid or employed, and if so, how
much, on a new road from Cowichan
station to the King Solomon mines,
how much it cost, and why it was not
full width, lie was promised an answer shortly.
Murphy (Curiboo) wanted to know
if .1. P. ISabcock is iu the employ of
the Government. Replied to in the
affirmative. Then now much wa, be
paid ? $3000 a year. Oil,and did the
Government give permission to Mr.
Bnbcock to net us a meiubor oi the
Fisheries Commission? They did.
And bow long bad the lish hatchery
at Seton Lake been in operation ?
Since July, 1903, replied the Government. Then Mr. Murphy asked how
many salmon eggs bad beeu placed
in the hatchery each year, bow many
young salmon bad been released each
year, and bow many men were employed this season thereat.
Jiuw, Mr. Murphy's sudden interest
in Salmon iB understood owing to the
locality where be resides, to be largely
of uu academic nature. Hi, face, as
be received full in it tbe tremendous
volume of ligures which bin lust three
questions culled forth, bad the blank
stolidity uf a nickel-in-the-slot machine assimilating coin of tbo realm
whon I usiness is good.
The Finance Minister moved the
House be asked to grant supply on
Wednesday next. Passed, thought it
is hardly likely to be ready by that
time.
Tbe Attorney-General's bill to
amend the General Trusts Oorpoiation
Act, 1906, passed its third reading.
The Attorney General1, bill to
amend the Small Debts Act passed its
second reading.
The adjourned debate on the second
reading oi Mr. Hawthornthwaite', bill
to amend the Coal Mines Regulation
Act was again laid over at the .Mover's
request.
in reference to the adjourned debate
on motion of Oliver (Delta) for return
of correspondence between Government und others in regard to defective cattle-guards along line of New
Westminster Southern Railway, the
order was granted; the Attorney-
General explaining, however, that the
people who bad bad stock injured bad
taken the" matter before the courts,
and be did not think it wise for the
Government to interfere.

Jjhn Houston (Nelson; was in bis
place for the tint time today, and pro
vided a little light comedy for hi,
fellow-members in the following man
uer:
The House adjourned (or fifteen
minutes, on motion ol the Premier, to
consider petitions for private bills
Dr. Voting (Atlin; chairman uf Private
Bills Committee, moved that the time
which was up today, be extended to
tbe liiith inst. Tbe recommendation
was adopted, He then moved the
suspension ol standing rule, to allow
petitions to be received. This was
passed.
Then uprose tbe redoubtable John
Houston, lie rose tua point ol order,

resting easily.
NEW BILLS.
The Atlin County Court Hill was
read a third time und passed. The
Act to amend tbe Small Debts Act
wa, reported complete in I ninmittc
without amendment.
ASSESSMENT ACT.
In moving the second reading of the
Aet to amend tbo Assessment Act,
1003, Finance Minister Tatlmv referred to the fact that the Act as
brought in the session before last was
a long one. Some amendment, were
made to it last session, but experience
bad shown tbo advisability of further
cnange,. The purpose of the present
amending Act wa, to make more dear
the meaning ol one or two sections of
that measure, and lo obviate the
possibility of misconstruction of its
intentions in other section,. There
wa, nothing in il to raise the taxes in
any way, in (act, it wa, a, proposed
decidedly in favor of the taxpayer, ono
of it, princip, I provisions lieing that,
where land, revert to the Crown for
taxe,, the taxpayer shall have a longer time to redeem his hind.
The Bccond section ol tin proposed
Act, continued the Finance Minister,
which dealt with real property luxation, wa, iu order to define more
clearly to what person, the lower rule,
of taxation shall apply. The intention of the original clause hud lieen
to help the poorer landholder, by a
low rate of taxation on property not
exceeding |2,000 in value, but it bus
been found in tome case, that people
possessed two tracts of land in the
same district, both under $2,1)110, yet
together aggregating nearly $4,01X1,
and that these persons bad taken advantage of the smaller rate, while
owner, ol land at $2,500 or $3,000 hud
to pay the higher rale, This new
clauae would remedy by taxing a
man', aggregate holding, in one
district.
The next amendment, aaid dipt.
Tatlnw, waa to make clearer the rat*
at whioh income tax should be
charged. It had been found on experience that the original clause dealing w'-.h thi, admitted of much mi,
construction, and the intent nl the
present meaiure wa, to cancel that
clause entirely and bring in a new
one, in which the' rates of taxation
were the same, but tbe wording so
definite that the intention of tbo Act
should uo longer be misunderstood.
The speaker went into extensive details showing the trouble that had
ariten Irom misconstruing the intent
of the original clause. He farther
explained a couple of minor section,;
one to amend a clerical error, and the
other to extend the time for the redemption of land.
Hawthornthwaite (Nnnsimo) approved the bill, and paid several
compliment, to Ihe Minister of
finance on being the right man for hi,
office. He detired, however, to
suggest the exemption from taxation
of the small farmer whose holding wa,
under $1,000.
Murphy (Cariboo) moved the adjournment of the debate.
Hon. Mr. McBride introduced an
"Act for the relief and ditincorpnrati, n
of the Municipality of Dewdney,"
which patsed its first rending.
LIFE SAVIXO STATION'S.
That the {rightful lo„ of Hie in tbe
wreck ol the Pacific Coast Steamship
Co.', ateatner "Valencia" on the west
coast of Vancouver Island the night
before laat had profoundly impressed
the members of the Legislature was
evident thi, afternoon, when, on the
House meeting, Mr. Manson (Alberni)
moved, Oliver (Delta) seconding, a
strong resolution to the Dominion
Government, asking lor the establishment of life-saving station, on thi,
dangerou, coast-line. Messrs. McBride and Hawthornthwaite made
strong speeches in support of the resolution, which carried unanimously.
SMALL DEBTS.
On report of the Bill to amond the
Small Debts Act, Parker Williams
(Newcastle) moved an amendment to
exempt from garnishee wage, ol workmen not exceeding $100 monthly.
This special piece of clue, legislation
did not meet the unanimous approval
of tha House at all, although the
Attorney-General lent it hi, support,
and, after a rather warm debate, it
wa, defeated by a mixed vote uf 22 to
17, some Government member, voting
lor it and others against it.
RELIEF BILL,
The rest of the day was devoted to
the discussion of Dewdney Relief Bill.
John Oliver, who has, in connection
with school taxation, persistently
made out himself and bis constituency to be a couple of deserving mendicant*, opposed the bill furiously;
thereby drawing upon his head the
delicate attention of Hawthornthwaite
of Nanaimo, who supported the measure and seined the opportunity to
make what is vulgarly known as a
"holy show" ol the Delta member,
Murphy (Cariboo) attempted to
adjourn the debate, but hi, motion
was defeated, and he was ruled out of
order whan attempting tn tpeak.
Tha House finally adjournod on
motion oj Mr. Wilson.

DISEASE IS A BLESSING
SIR FREDERICK TREVES CONTROVERTS OLD IDi'-AS.
Disease Symptoms Marked by
Purpose and That I'arposo
Is Beneficent,
Sir Frederick Treves has just delivered u iviiuii-kalilu address nt tho
iikiiigiti'iil un ut ing ol the iwsslon nt
llm Edinburgh Philosophical Institution, His subject was "Medicine
a lu Mode." He said Hm pervading
idea ul (IJsoatiO was something that
wan woeful and malignant, evil in
origin, evil in Inl,-ul aud evil In
effect.
"In Ihe popular view," he continued, "ll is held that dih-i-ns-o Is a
calamity, thut. lis end is di-slruction
and lhat il is purposeless, except in
oiui direction-—that of doing hiirm
"Popular tortus hear testimony to
the prevalence of that bollof, A man
is sold (o he 'struck down' by disease a.1, liy the avenging angel, It
seizes upon him us docs n roaring
Hon, It consumes him ns does a
lire, The attitude of the moil leal
imiii toward disease is lhat of on
opponent In deadly Influences.
"He hns to combat an enemy lo
mankind whose every movement is
dark and malicious. There is no
symptom of disease that is not believed io be noxious and, as such,
musl be slumped nut. with relentless
determination,
"if the patient be 111, the Illness
musl be stayed. 11 lie coughs, the
cough must cease. If he fulls lo
lake food, he must be made lo eat.
Ami why? Because these aro muni-
fesliil iiiim of dinniise und therefore of
ill Intent uml to he banished.
BENEFITS OF DISEASE,
"I hold that there is nothing preternatural tn disease; Ihal Its phenomena or symploms are marl ed by
purpose und Hint that purpose is
bt-neliei nt.
"Disease is one of the good gifts,
for ils motive is benevolent and
protective, I cannot express that
more precisely than hy saying that,
if il. were not for disease, (he human
race would soon be extinct."
Sir P'rcdorlfk Treves Ihen demonstrated his proposition by instances.
His first wus Unit of a wound nnd

was a process of cure to lie Imitated

Another instance given was I'mt
of a roiiuium cold, which wns no
doubt ihe so-called bacterial disease.
MANIFESTATIONS OF CURE,
"According l.o popular medicine,"
he said, "the phenomena constituting disease are purposeless, profitless and wantonly distressful, so
that the victim demands from Ihe
physician means for stamping out
tlie trouble. These symptoms, however, utv in Hie main manifestations
of a process of cure and are so far
benevolent Uml without them n common cold might be a fatal malady.
"Catarrh and perslstenl snoozing

while the cough removes theni from
