[The property referred to is the site letted by the citizens last year for the |w post office and the general belief is that is the object of the engineer's visit here at this time. Mr. Geauvreau stated that the building would be 125 ft by 120 ft and that the government had secured the site from the Grand Trunk Pacific. The site is an ideal one, both for public convenience and for a general outlook. Hon. Dr. Pugsley, Miinster of Public works intimated to the Optimist last winter that, from data he had in hand he believed that the site at the corner of Second avenue and Sixth street would be the better site. This was also the location recommended by the Board of Trade. A citizen's meeting was held later when it was decided to request the minister to put the post office on the grounds opposite the Provincial buildings on Second avenue. The sits now being surveyed is on the Grand Trunk Pacific Park reserve and in time the surroundings will be one of the most attractive spots in the city. The citizens will openly rejoice when they see the first sod for the new post office turned, and they will patiently await that eventful day.

Rittenhouse, one of the most deeply interested men in Stewart and the mining country at the back, arrived in the city on the Prince Rupert bound for Stewart. He has been in the south for the past two or three weeks, but when he gets back to the north he will start construction work on the telephone system at once. He expects that the poles will be on the grounds ready and that nothing else will cause any delay. Mr. Rittenhouse is installing a hundred phone manual plant to start. This of course can be added to as business warrants. Mr. Rittenhouse is a mining engineer and is deeply interested in the camp. He has purchased several groups of claims and he is prepared to purchase another group this time if he is satisfied that they are good. The last group he got has been incorporated and is known as the Portland Maple Leaf Mines Limited. He is connected with the Canada Mines Limited and several other properties. As a mining man speaking of the future of the country he said it had the best surface showings of any camp he had been in. The geology is correct and indicates continuity of depth of the veins It differs from the Kootenay district insofar that it is all solid and does not show eruptions in past ages like Kootney which is all broken up and necessitates diamond drills for prospecting. The country is sound and minerals are found all over it and he believed that it ran right through Alice Arm and on to Kitsumkalum. There are no mines there yet. There are a lot of splendid prospects and it will be several months, even next spring before it can really be called a mining camp. The Portland canal people have a mine. That is they have a lot of ore blocked and ready to be removed and shipped and they will Btart shipping as soon as the con- It is learned by wire from Van- J couver that the Stock Market �� was brisker this morning than �� for several days, most of the j| leading stocks advancing.

On J both the local exchanges, Port- �� lands were in demand at Van- �� couver quotations. @ centrator is finished, which will be about August 1st. There is no justification from a mineral stand point for the present prices of the stocks, and the recent slump will do more good than anything else as it will help to eliminate the wild cats and the speculators with good hard work during the summer, fall and winter, next spring should show something of the wealth we believe is there. PROSPECTORS LEAVE Went up the River to Kitselas and Then to Alice Arm. Dr. D. M. Innes and Albert Morrison, brother of D. S. Morrison of this city and an old prospector, leave on the steamer Inlander to-morrow for Kitselas with a fell consignment of supplies to last them for two or three months. At Kitsleas they will hit the trail for the Alice Arm district, where they will prospect for the next couple of months or longer. The Alice Arm district is very promising and the many friends here of the two prospectors will wish them every success. The mineral is waiting in that distiict lor the prospector and those who have been up predict that it will suprass the Portland Canal district. REAL ESTATE HIGHER Chas. M. Wilson Sold Two Lots that Have Advanced $900 in 3 Months. Chas. M. Wilson yesterday sold lots 27 and 28, block 11, section 5, on 6th avenue next the Fulton street corner for $3,800. The purchaser is a gentleman from Idaho who next year will bring his family here and locate. He says Prince Rupert is very much talked of in that state. These lots were sold by the Alberta Realty Co just three months ago for $2,900 and this substantial increase is in line with the rapid and continual increase in values of real estate here. |AAAQQA(S)������������(3}��(d��������������G NO WIRE NEWS TO-DAY The telegraph was keyed up to highest pitch on Monday, just as the two fighters were.

Forty-two Bed-rooms Furnished���Up- to-Date Cafe on European Plan��� Steam Heating and all Modern Conveniences. About the first of next week the Royal Hotel will be opened to the public at the corner of Third avenue and Sixth street. The proprietors and managers will be S. A. Coiley and C. E. Burgess, who have for the past two years very successfully conducted the Royal Lunch. The Royal Hotel will occupy the entire block except the corner store where Director Cohen & Co have a lease, but in a few months this store will be taken over also and converted into the rotunda and the bar for the hotel. At present there will be no bar and the sitting rooms will be upstairs on the second floor. The Royal Hotel is being furnished from cellar to garret in an up to date manner. The best of everything is being put in for the convenience and comfort of the public and for the convenience of the help. The furniture up stairs has been supplied by Geo. D. Tite and includes first class iron beds, felt mattresses, and the best of furniture. All through rugs and carpets are found and the whole place carries an air of home comfort, which is sure to be popular with the public. There are 42 bed rooms in all with separate rooms on the fourth floor for the help. Twenty-one bed rooms, a bath and two toilets on each of the second and third floors, and all the other little things necessary are already provided. The building is heated throughout with steam and the furnace is running. Sewer connections will be made with the temporary sewer as soon as the pipe arrived which is expected this week. Down stairs a cafe, first-class in every respect, is being fitted up. It will be run on the European plan and will never be closed, On one side is the-lunch counter and on the other are tables, with provision for private parties. The dining room will seat 42 persons which will give ample accommodation. The kitchen at the rear is large and well lighteh and well arranged so that no delay will be caused in serving meals and lunches. The steam - heating system was installed by J. F. Mathieson. The aim of Messrs. Corley and Burgess is to have a first-class hotel with the best possible service, and they will have nothing else. Both gentlemen are pioneers here and they have a splendid record in the city and a very large circle of friends. The public generally will wish them all success in their new under takings. COUNCIL BUYS* FIRST LUMBER MILLION FEET TO BE SUPPLIED BY WESTHOLME LUMBER CO. Spruce and Fir to be Used in Construction of New Streets���Street Committee Made Their Recommendation���Work will Start Soon On the recommendation of the Streets Works and Property committee the council decided to award a contract for a million feet of planking to the Westholme Lumber Co. This lumber is to be used in replanking old streets and for building new ones. This begins to look as though there would be some thing doing in a short time. A petition was received from residents in the vicinity of Eleventh street asking for a 24 foot plank road to be constructed under the local improvement by law. On motion the petition was referred to the streets, Works and Property com; mittees. A report was received from the Light and Telephone committee recommending that Jas. Milne's account of $1,169 for services in connection with the electric light system, be paid out of the funds appropriated by the government and that Mr. Milne's services be dispensed with. Bought the Lumber The streets committee recommended that the tender of the Westholme Lumber Company be accepted as it is much the lowest and the advantages of storage and wharfage etc offered by the tenderers is of special benefit to the city. The total cost of the lumber will be $15,000. The above lumber will be used in planking new roads and replanking old roads and the streets committee will begin to use it about the first of August. The recommendation was adopted. PRINCE RUPERT IS A WONDER BEGINS TO SHOW HIGH SPEED SHE IS CAPABLE OF Arrives H re Two Hours and a Half Before Schedule Time, Although Delayed Thirty Minutes Starting From Vancouver. To everyone's great surprise the approaching whistle of the Prince Rupert awoke the echoes this morning two hours an a half in advance of schedule time. This notwithstanding the fact that she was delayed half an hour in starting from Vancouver, which would make her three hours the gainer on the run up She carried about two hundred passengers jnoHt of them for Prince Rupert and an ordinary cargo of freight. The freight for Prince Rupert is to be landed here this time, the strong representations as to the previous conduct of the steamer in this regard having apparently had the desired effect. She will leave here at eight o'clock this evening. Mr. Dickie. president of the Portland Canal company, is among the passengers for Stewart and Captain John Irving is going from here to look after the development of his properties on the canal. Fire Chief Neil Mclnnes has assumed his new duties at the fire hall although he admits that they are not very heavy at present. He is getting things shaped up a little and will move into his room tonight. He is looking for a new hall and a lot of additional fire fighting apparatus. These things are necessary before any material change can be made. The university of Toronto, recognizing the development of mining in Canada and the necessity for better training for young foreigners, has added to the university staff a professor of mining by the appointment of H. E. T. Haultain. THE PRINCE RUPERT OPTIMIST LAND PURCHASE NOTICE Coast Land District-District of Skeena.

FEMALE HELP WANTED ��� NATIVE SILVER AT HAZELTON BOUND TO BE A BIG CAMP AT HEAD OF SKEENA Galena That Will Pay Hundred Dollars to Ton���Stampede to the Rich Ground���Mr. Kinman Takes Samples of Ore to Vancouver. A mining camp, the richness of whose ore bodies promise it a future second to none so far discovered and developed in British Columbia, is in the making in the vicinity of Hazelton, at the head of navigation on the Skeena river, says the Vancouver Province. For a year or so ago the presence of the ore bodies in this district has been known, but-not till within the past few weeks has there been any understanding of the richness of the mineral contents of the vein matter. Showings of native silver, which in extent and value rival the richness of the famous Silver Islet ores of bygone days, when the Lake Superior property was being worked, have been discovered. For months it was thought that the whitish mineral which spread through the vein matter in every direction was nothing but deposits of sulphate of antimony, but assays made in Vancouver have determined it to be native silver, giving to the ore values running all the way from $145 to $185 per ton. The ore shows but traces of gold and traces of copper. The properties carrying these veins of native silver are situated on Four- mile Mountain, the name designating the distance of the mountain from Hazelton. An examination of some of the claims on Four-mile Mountain was made within the past month by Mr. E. L. Kinman of Vancouver. His experience in the rich silver lead dis tricts of the Kootenay led him to believe that what the prospectors pointed out to him as mere sulphate of antimony, was nothing less than native silver spread thinly in sheet form throughout the vein. Following ne gotiations for two of the claims on which development work had been done, Mr. Kinman secured a price on the properties subject to ten days' time in which to have assajs made. Depositing the first payment in Ha zelton with instructions that it was to be released following a telegram from Vancouver that everything was satis factory, Mr. K'nman went south with his ore samples. His opinion of the character of the ore wes confirmed by the assays, which gave the values stated, and the payments was released. Mr. Kinman has one shift of men. now at work on development, and leave Vancouver next Monday for Hazelton to start a second shift. The ore is a refractory one, and before the season of navigation on the Skeena River closes suificitnt of it will have been ship ped out to secure satisfactory smelter tests. The properties on Four mile Mountain are accessible fiom Hazelton by �� good wagon road and a fa.rly good transportation rate has been named from Hazelton to Prince Rupert on the river steamers. Mr. Kinman expects that after making liberal allowance for the cost of mining, teaming to Hazelton, water transportation to a smelter, and reduction rates, the average return from the ore will no! be less than $120 per ton. This estimate is based on ore that will carry average va'ue of $150 per ton, and in his opinion this is a conserav- tive figure at which to place the worth of the contents of the general run of the vein. The formation of the country at Four-mile Mountain is snndstone with intrusive dykes of granite. Classification of the vein matter which caries the high silver values is a puzzle which geologists and expert miners have been unable to solve offhand. Apparently the \ein fissures received their mineralization .when the upheaval which intioduced the granite occurred. Recently there was a stampede to Four-mile Mountain with the result that numerous claims have been staked on what is supposed to be an extension of the rich vein, but sufficient development has not been done on any of these later stakings to determine their value as anything more than good prospects. At Nine-mile Mountain considerable development has been carried on at the Silver Cup, a property carrying a richly mineralized silver - lead vein. Nine-mile Mountain is attracting a great deal of attention, in fact the entire country within a radius of a score of miles of Hazelton is now being combed by prospectors, and there is every probability that before the end of the present summer the Hazelton district will he the scene of a mining rush similar to that which has brought Portland Cana. so prominently before the world in the last six months.

Everyone living in Prince Rupert has seen a phase of a great town and a great railway in the making. They have seen the engineer breaking a trail through" virgin forest and running a line across discouraging hills and sloughs. They have seen the clearing gang, the rock gang and the grading gang successively follow in their wake and miles of level roadbed open out from their labor, until the gigantic undertaking and its millions of cost appear commonplace and almost unworthy of comment. But a new and less monotonous phase of railway construction is here���and now rapidly departing. It is the track-laying gang, undoubtedly the most interesting and inspiring work of the whole construction. To the track-layer the difficulties of barriers and fords have departed. He has his path cut for him and his duty is to rush to the goal. Every day he sees new scenes. Every other day his camp changes. Each hour_of labor is a hustle with brain and hand, and a hundred or two fellow workmen hustling beside him. Enthusiasm is in the atmosphere. To him comes the pleasure of all the varied experiences of a pioneer traveller on a new highway of future generations. He lays the track, walks the ties, bumps along on flat cars, rides the engine and possibly the first parlor car over the line. Each hour a new panorama of nature's art unfolds itself to his eye. He gazes over reaches of land and water that will be gems for future artists and writers. He sees the colors, the perspective and the details of Nature before she has withdrawn them from approaching civilization. His train is the first to rival the roar of the salt water surf. He hears a hundred hills startled into echoes from the first locomotive whistle. He races up the shore line of great rivers as their first rival in the business of transportation. He opens the way to the vastness, the mysterious and the, riches of the interior. There is no room for monotony or discontent.

Two and a quarter miles in six hours and a half is the record Dan Dempsey made with his track-laying gang on Monday, and railroad men say that is going some for this mountain section. Dan Dempsey is the head foreman at the end of steel on the Grand Trunk Pacific. He is in charge of "the Pioneer," known to the uninitiated as a track- laying machine. In fact Dan is one of the inventors of the machine. It is a wonderful piece of mechanism���not much to look at, but a whale to work. It will keep 50 or 60 men busy in front and as many more behind spiking down the rails. The machine is a hustler and it makes the man hustle, too. That is a good point about it, but that same hustle has been the cause of some delay because the gang of men at work on the machine when 'it first started out were clumsy and fell over themselves. An experienced gang had to be brought in and now the work goes along merrily. The track-laying train is made up of an engine with two flat cars of rails ahead and the track-laying machine ahead of them. Behind the engine are cars of ties, and work and general supply cars. On each side of the train are box tramways hung just below the edge of the floor of the flat cars. The tramway on the left side runs from the front of the Pioneer to the end of the flat cars carrying rails. The trams are operated by steam from the engine. They are simply rollers which carry the rails up to the front of the pioneer. As the end of the rail shoots out two men clamp on angle-irons. The rail is suspended from either of the two cranes���one for each side���and lowered into place. Temporary steel rods hold the rails in position until the train has passed, when the spiking gang arrives. On the right side of the train the trough-like tram runs back to the cars with the ties. Yesterday we checked into stock a new shipment of corsets ! which now makes our stock com- [ plete in sizes and in range of < prices. ', They comprise all the latest j < ��� models andjvalues^run from $1.00 ' ',', a pair and upward. ! i;H.S.

They shoot out of the tram some distance ahead of the pioneer. A man grabs each tie as it comes out and drops it in place. When one considers that frequently half a mile of track is laid an hour and that there are 3200 ties to the mile, it means stepping lively. At the present time the track is out as far as the trestle over Bone-yard creek, about 22 miles from PrinceRupert. The work is considerably delayed by lack of material. Until the completion of the Zanardi Rapids bridge all the material has to be taken from the Rupert yards on a scow ferry to a slip this side of Inverness. On account of the tides only one load of material can be put on and unloaded each day. Zanardi bridge has given a great deal of trouble but the concrete peers will be finished this week ready for the steel work. The span between the shore abutments is 100 feet. There are three piers built to withstand the torrent of water which pours through with the rise and fall of the tides. Mr. Young, of the Canada Bridge Co., has charge of the superstructure and he has his material on the ground ready to start as soon as the concrete'is finished. His camp is now about completed and by the end of August the big bridge should be ready for trains. In the meantime the track-laying will proceed as far as material can be taken to the front. No ballasting will be done until the track reaches the gravel pit. 90 miles up the line. This will be some weeks yet, but an effort will be made to have the first hundred miles ballasted before the frost of next winter. For a new road the bed is in excellent shape and with "80 lb rails heavy trains can be taken over it at a good speed without danger. Therejare very few soft spots and these are mostly near the mouth of the Skeena. ffcgj The scenery along the route is magnificent. After leaving the harbor view the road slips around the end of Kaien Island, where for half a mile it loses sight of the water, to come out on picturesque Porpoise harbor with its pretty islands winding'|jchannels, and swift running waters. fJ^This type of scenery continues as far as Inverness where the grade turns on to the north branch of the Skeena. Then for many miles it winds under the towering cl'ffs of granite and along the broad and beautiful river. At this season of the year the Skeena is alive with hundreds of small craft belonging to the canneries but the scene from the train is more like a bit of the St Lawrence or the Hudson on a midsummer holiday. A trip out to the end of steel is a holiday and education combined. One has to see the massive cuts, the deep fills and the numerous difficulties overcome to realize what a gigantic undertaking it is to hew out a grade for a transcontinental railroad. Future, travellers will glory in the scenery and the luxury of the drawing room cars but few will think of the tireless energy, the thousands of days' labor and the millions of money it has cost to rush passengers along at the rate of 60 miles an hour. W. C. C. Mehan, the general superintendent, who organized the construction work and who is personally in touch with every part of the G. T. P. work here is making an effort to get the first section of the road ready to handle traffic this year. If things can be accomplished it will materially help the Prince Rupert business man.

Portland Canal Miner Says Stewart Has Been Slightly Bitten. 'Stewart has been bitten. Not badly it is true, but just enough to make \m aware that the age of Get- Rich- Ouick Wallingford of mirthful mem- ;ory is still extant. This time the re- ���doubtable Rufus appeared in the per- of one Powerful Joe, formerly of R'aldez and Fairbanks, and more re- sently hailing from the Capital City, a pleasing personality, fund of ncedote and a presence befitting a of near substance, he put it all iver Rufus in the way he got-to the long green. . "We have heretofore refrained from jentioning the matter, but as those ���ho have been stung (from representa- ives of the Government down to the man works with the pick and shovel), m blessed with a short memory and erst-while bloated capitalist has iot made good with sundry cheques, ransfers of realty and a company promo- ion, it's time action was taken. To play mining camp for a bunch of suckers one thing; but to monkey with the :ajesty of the law in another. Powerful loe has either got to make good or suffer he consequences. Meanwhile we hope that innocent ictorian investors will take warning md pass up anyone resembling J. Rufus |Wallingford who introduces Stewart eal estate or Portland Canal mining Istocks for their serious consideration." unanimously endorsed Ed. S. Orr as the party's candidate, and Orr is a strong man. He was mayor of Tacoma before going north with the early pioneers, and since then has been the leading freighter of Dawson, Fairbanks and Valdez. Watched Seal Fight. The boys at Porpoise Harbour camp last Sunday witnessed a contest that was fiercer than the fight between Jeffries and Johnson. It was a fight between two full grown seals. They were at it for hours and fought to the death. The Tge water about there was read with blood and at times the seal jumped many feet out of thej water in their attacks. The contest attracted all the boys at the camp. RUEF'S WORDY APPEAL.

One of the best view lots on 5th Avenue, in Block 4, Sec. 5, close to Fulton,$850. Fine level lot on 7th Ave. and Thompson in Block 22, Sec. 5, $625. Grand double corner close to Hays' Creek; fine view, perfectly level, $525. Fine level double corner on 7th Ave., and adjoining Seal Cove Circle and Cold Storage Plant, $600. Block 26, section 7. Two fine view lots close to McBride Street, suitable for immediate building-, $475; only $212.50 cash. You will never get such cinches again and you must be quick to get these, for the market is slowlv hardening. These are equity���cash prices, but I have lots from $10 a month I specialize on cheap lots and easy terms. Remember if your children are born landless, they are born with their lives mortgaged.

The number of people whose homes are in furnished rooms��� "homes within homes"���is very large. ' And among the people who live in "one room homes" are an increasing number who like to have things a little better THAN USUAL. They like to have a pleasant room, and they like to have it fitted up DISTINCTIVELY, with taste. They will cheerfully, eagerly, pay for SOMETHING BETTER in the way of a furnished room. Fix yours up to please the particular tenants, and ADVERTISE ACCORDINGLY, and you'll get back your investment with profit in a very brief time. Try Optimist want ads.

If it is correct, as a despatch says, that Mr. Dunsmuir is investing a part of the price of his coal properties in the bonds of the Canadian Northern Railway Company, the incident affords an interesting object lesson in finance. Mr. Dunsmuir had coal mines; Mr. Mackenzie is at the head of a company that is going to build railways in the province and notably in this con nection one on Vancouver Island. Mr. Mackenzie thinks he will buy Mr. Dunsmuir's coal mines. He goes to England and gets the money, comes out and pays it to Mr. Dunsmuir. Then Mr. Dunsmuir pays part of it back to Mr. Mackenzie's company and takes its bonds as security, goes to England and gets the money, and builds a railway on Vancouver Island.���Victoria Colonist.

Taken Over by the City To.day and Rates will be Collected Hereafter. The council will today take over the water works system and start collecting rates from this date. The schedule of rates was to have been presented to the council last' by the engineer along with a report, but they were not received The report will be in hand tonight. The Fire, Water and Light committee reported as follows, recommending the purchase of 40 stand pipe covers and 20 stand pipes as per report of Engineer Agnew submitted herewith. We further recommend that the present water supply to be taken over, and all accounts for maintenance, etc. be paid and all rates collected by the city on and after July 6th. F. B. MOBLEY, Chairman. In speaking to the report Aid. Mobley favored taking over the water system at once, even this morning and that arrangements be made for the collecting of the rates at once. As for the caps for the standpipes he said that children were beginning to put stones, pealings rags and other things down the stand- pipes and these will cause a lot of trouble sooner or later. The caps will prevent it. The report was adopted and the com mittee was authorized to carry out the recommendations contained therein. MRS. TEMPLE'S TELEGRAM Brandon's Players will Present this Funny Production Tonight. Any playgoers desiring to laugh to their hearts content should see "Mrs. Temple's Telegram" at the Empress threatre tonight. This delightful comedy had a run in New York for more than a year and was probably the most successful farce comedy ever given a metropolitan run. The play is most inique A young married man during a day at Coney Island takes a ride in the Ferris wheel. In the same car with him is the wife of his friend. Something goes wrong with the machinery which leaves them suspended in mid air and they are compelled to remain there all night. The young man goes home tells his wife a perfectly straight story but it sounds so improbable she does not believe him and he invents another story to clear himself saying he stopped with his friend a Mr. Brown and giving what he supposed to be a ficticious address. He gets his friend to impersonate Mr. Brown and the amusing situations that arise keep the audience in constant roars of laughter. Tomorrow night "Cousin Kate" will be the offering and on Friday night, "The Thief" with an Amatuer contest after the performance. PERSONAL Mrs. Miller leaves on the Prince Rupert tonight for Stewart, where she will join her husband and make her future home. R. Cunningham of Port Essington is in town today. He says the Fourth of July fight at Reno was a sore disappointment to the sports there who received special bulletins. Mr. C also brings the good news that the sock- eye fjlshing on the Skeena is good and the big run has opened early.
