Tuesday iho Wakefield concentrator was started up for the first time and it is expected to run continuously from now on; in eou-eqnenco it is ofl with the redlish crop this season. A party of mining men were here on Monday, making nn examination of the Noonday mine, in view of securing the controlling interest jn ihe Noonday- Curley stock. The party consisted of Messrs. J.

On tho Adela claim near town the Noonday ledgo has been discovert d, thus completing ihe chain of claims having this ledge, from the lake to the Noonday property. There oie four of these claims, the Queen Fraction", ou the lake shore, Adela, Freddy aud Noonday, nil of which ure now at work on the same ledge. These properties would make a fine tunnel proposition, if combined, as a tunnel could be driven directly on the vein through nil of these claims and over 1000 feet io depth could lie gained. E.

London, Feb. 17.—With Gener- eral Cronje in full retreat and General Kelly-Kenny harassing his rear, hopes run high that a decisive action will occur, if it has not already been fought. The dispatches from Jacobsdal confirm this belief, saying General Cronje has been oblidged to"outspan," in other words, form a laager or camp, in order to rest his oxen. This explains General Kellv-Kenny's latest dispatch referring to shelling the laager, which also brought the long-expected word of General Kitchener's whereabouts. The general who relentlessly pursued the Khalifa to his doom is supervising the pursuit of General Cronje. General Tucker, with the seventh division, is able to effect the projected junction with the forces of General Kelly-Kenny, while the ninth diyision under General Colville is rapidly coming up from the rear. Thus the hero of Khartoum should have a sufficient force to decisively engage General Cronje and prevent him from reaching Bloemfontein with an effective force. Cronje In Full Flight. Jacobsdal, Feb. 16 via Modder River.—General Cronje, with 10,- 000 men, is in full retreat towards Bloemfontein. General Kelly-Kenny is fighting the rear guard and harrassing the retreat. The Boers are' reported to be leaving Spyfontein, going northwesterly direction. The Boers captured a large convoy as a result of yesterday's fighting at Riet River. The British casualties were comparatively slight in view of the tremendous bombardment. Less than thirty men were wounded and but one killed. Bnthn*la*ni al Kimberly. General French's division was enthusiastically welcomed at Kimberly. The officers dined at the club last evening. The news of the entry into Kimberly has greatly- cheered the troops and they are working splendidly. Ureal Capture ofNuppllc*. London, Feb. 17.—Following is the test of Lord Robert,s dispatch. Jacobsdal Feb. 17.—General Kelly-Kenny's bi igade captured yesterday seventyjeight wagons laden with stores, two wagons of Mauser rifles, eight boxes of shelN, ten barrels of explosive, and a large quantity of stores, all belonging to Cronje's laager, which was being shelled by our artillery when Kitchener dispatched his messenger." Jacobsdal, Feb. 16.—General Cronje is in full retreat with Kelly Kenny harrassing him. Invading the Free State. London, Feb. 17.—The Chronicle, in a second edition this morning, has the following dispatch from Watervaal drift, Friday, Feb. 16, morning: "Lord Roberts, with the sixth and seventh divisions and the cavalry division, is marching toward the Free State. The sixth division crossed the Riet river and Watervaal drift and marched along the right bank. The Boers showed fight and we had several casualties. The cavalry captund Brown's drift on the lett flank of the Boers' main position. Both columns are now marching north, parallel with each ther. The British captured many prisoners but theii casualties were slight. The Enemy Driven From jaeob*dal The Chronicle also has the following dispatch from Wcgcdlics, undated, via Modder river, Feb, 16, morning. "Gen. Kelly-Kenny, with the sixth division, has entered Jacobsdal. The Boers made a feeble attempt to hold the eastern ridges, but were outflanked by the mounted infantry and retired. There were few British casualties. The division then evacuated Jacobsdal, marching north in the track of French's cavalry, which crossed the Modder river and engaged the enemy, who retired with heavy losses. Drove the Boers Before Them. "The seventh division crossed the Riet river east ot Koffyfontein and drove the enemy before them. Gen. Tucker is now on Gen. Kelly- Kenny's right and probably will effect a junction with his force. The enemy is retiring north. The ninth division, under Gen. Golville, is in the rear of the sixth divisiou. The enemy so far has made no determined stand. "We have captured thousands of stock." Boera Attach Molteno. London, Feb. 17.-2:37 p. m.—- A special dispatch from Sterkstroom dated today, says the Boers, with artillery, commenced an attack this morning on Molteno, near that place, occupied by troops commanded by General Gatacre.

London, Fe*. 19.— 3:3" p. m.— The war office has received the fol- HURRAH FOR FRENCH! At last a bright light has shone through the South African gloom, and it has come from French, the Canadian general who gained his vigor, readiness of resource and quickness of execution in the northwest. Roberts, the man who made the bold, swift dash to the relief of Candahar, doubtless planned the equally bold, swift dash to the relief ot Kimberly and he chose the right man to execute it. To Roberts is due the credit for the conception; to French the credit tor the brilliant carrying into effect of that conception. At last the Boers have found their match; at last they can no longer wait for the British to attack them on their chosen fighting ground, but find the British pouncing upon them unawares. At last the Brtiish forces have acquired that mobility which the Boers have hitherto used with such bewildering success. The genius of Kitchener for organization alone could have brought about this change. For months the British forces under French, Gatacre and'Methuen have been glued to the vicinity of Colesberg, Stormberg aud Magers- fontein, trying to smoke and blast the Boers out of their trenches as a ferret might pursue a rabbit into his burrow. They could not drive out the Boers, nor would the Boers come out to fight in the open. Kimberly, with its enfeebled garrison and hosts of sick, lay waiting wearily for relief, as the daily torrent of shells laid men low and carried devastation through the town. But no relief came, for the generals feared to leave a hostile force in possession • of the country in their rear. But Roberts changed all this. With fresh forces and new ideas, he cut loose from Stormbtrg, Colesberg and Rensburg, leaving the Boers to hold them if they chose. He dashed through the heart of the enemy's country, went wide of Cronje's lines at Magersfontein while the latter was occupied in watching Methuen, and then sent French, with a flying column, off to Kimberly. The Boers were caught unawares all along the line. They had no time to fortify the drifts of the Riet and Modder rivers before the cavalry were upon them, capturing camps, cattle, everything Right to the very city of diamonds tbe triumphant advance continued and again the Boers seem to hav been taken by surprise, for their depots, supplies and amunition were captured. Then the long leaguer of Kimberly was raised and a hurrah went up from every British heart the world over. Hurrah for Frcnchl Hurrah for Canada, where he first won honors!

The upraise from the 350-foot level is now at the Black Bear tunnel level, from which it will be continued to jhe surface, When this shaft is completed, all ore and waste will be hoisted through it and the men will go to and from work through it. The foundation for the compressor is finished and is now awaiting the arrival of the machinery which is understood to have been shipped by by this time. The development work of extending the levels is proceeding as usual, the intention being to fully develop the vein to the limits of the property, 3000 feet along the vein. Contracts have been let for 3000 to 4000 feet of diamond drill work, by which it is the intention to explore the mine laterally and vertically.

Feb. 19.—Private Corbould, one of the Westminster men with the Canadian contingent, is missing. He fell out of column, together with several other Canadians on the march to Jacobsdal and has not since returned. The news is contained in a special wire from Ottawa, being a copy of a dispatch from Col. Otter. WHAT THE MILITIA NEEDS. The Vancouver Ne#s Advertiser expresses the hope that meetings like those recently held in the British Columbia cities will make the government understand the feelings of the people in regard to imperial defense aad continues: "Militiamen will be delighted to see civilians take such a united stand, as it means that public attention will be directed to the short-comings of the Militia Department,and to the unprepared ness of the Canadian military units to take . the field. Canada in spite of the efforts of successive major- generals has no 'army' properly equipped. When the second contingent was being organized it was found that there were not sufficient saddles in store to equip a paltry 700 men and 500 had to be purchased in the United States to the humiliation of the Dominion. No transport wagons were in stores and a rush order for fourteen was given and fortunately executed in time. When the militia battalions go into camp in the east during thesummer it is necessary to arrange the dates so that the tents, blankeU, etc. can be sent from camp to camp, as there are not enough in stores for mobilization in larger bodies. The committee appointed on Friday night last should be a permanent one, in the nature of a defence committee, to bring pressure to bear on the government to induce that body to place the home defence force on a proper footing on the lines laid down by Major-Gene ml Mutton." ler: "Chieveley Carrip, Feb. 19.—I yesterday moved and found the enemy's flank. The Queens, who had bivouaced on this northern slope of Cingolo, crossed the Nek and, supported by the rest of the second brigade under Hillyard, assaulted and took the southern end of Monte Christo. The fourth brigade on the left or western slope and the Welsh fusiliers, Supported by the rest of the sixth brigade, assaulted the western flank of enemyV position, while the second brigade of cavalry Oil the extreme right watched the eastern slopes of Monte Christo and drove back those of the enemy who attempted to escape there from the artillery fire. "Assaulted by heavy artillery fire on their front and flank, and attacked on their flank and rear, the enemy made but slight resistance and abandoned their strong positions, and were driven across the Tugela. "I have taken several camps, a wagon load Of ammunition, several wagons of stores and supplies, and prisoners. "The weather Was intensely hot and the ground traversed was exceedingly difficult, but the energetic dash of the troops has been very pleasant to see. They have done splendidly. The work of the irregular cavalry, the Queens, the Scots, the Fusiliers and the rifle brigade was perhaps the most notable,while the excellent practice of the artillery and naval guns and gunners at all times very accurate fire was remarkable. The accurate fire of the naval guns from Chieveley was of great assistance. Our casualties are not, I think, many." BombArdlng Hlawana Bill.

Jdethuen Coea to Kimberly London, Feb. ao.—The war office has issued a dispatch from Lord Roberts, the main importance of which is the fact that it is dated Paadeberg, 7:30 p. m., Monday. Paadeberg is 30 miles east of Jacobsdal. The dispatch announces that the railroad to Kimberly is open and that General Methuen will proceed there with reinforcements forthwith, and that large supplies will be forwarded to the town. Ex Gov.

Parliament has been asked to appropriate $2,000,000 for the expenses of the Canadian contingents, which includes the difference between Canadian and imperial pay. Petitions have been presented for an extension of time for the completion of the British Columbia Southern railway and of the Kaslo & Lardo- Duncan railway; that the Arrowhead & Kootenay railway be declared a work for the general advantage of Canada and that the time for its completion be extended.- Mr. Mclnnes, M.

Ureal Tax un Horace London, Feb. 20.—The Standard's correspondent at Modder river under date of Sunday, February 18, wires as follows: "The magnificent successes of the plan of campaign of Lord Roberts must be ascribed in great part, after full credit has been given for careful and brilliant strategy, to the extreme mobility of the newly organized forces employed; but this mobility has to be paid for. It involves a great expenditure in horses. Those of the Boers, for instance, are nearly finished. If we are to retain our advantage, there must be an unstinted drawing upon every possible source of supply throughout the empire. Otherwise we shall soon be without sufficient horses of the suitable kind to furnish the necessary remounts. The infantry under Lord Roberts have done some marvellous marching, mostly at night. Their pluck and endurance have gone very far toward ensuring the safety and success of the cavalry operations." , How ih.. Boer flank «n« Turned. Ne*' York, Feb. 22.—Winston Churchill sends from Chieveley camp a long dispatch which is printed in the World and in which he says: "Thc late success should not induce the government to relax its military preparations. The first object before everyone is to bring this horrible war to an end, and the shortest way is to pour a continuous stream of men and guns and supplies into the Cape. Meanwhile there are many encouraging signs that the Boers are weakening. The sky already brightens with promise of victory and peace. "Our losses in the fight for Hussar Hill were about fifty. All the fighting was conducted at long rifle range. At last, for the first time during these operations, we had found the Boer flank and had placed a strong force at right angles to his rfiain position. The fruits of this were plucked on the 18th (Sunday) when General Hild- yard began an attack across the Nek on Mo.ite Cristo. The guns and the other brigades assisted, The Boers commenced a rearguard action, which degenerated rapidly into flight. The whole line of abandoned trenches, two miles long, were captured wilh a loss to the assaulting brigade of three men. The Boers then fled across the river at great speed with disorder, but bravely covered their artillery. The British loss was comparatively small, chiefly in General Hildyard's brigade, which gallantly stormed the key of the position. "fhe Boer fl.ink has been completely turned, strong defensive positions have been captured, and valuable positions for future ad- vanee secured. The Boers have been put to fligh t tor the first time in Natal since Klandslaa gte. British soldiers slept last night in Boer tents on top of thc captured hills, from which they can see right into Ladysmith. All ranks are encouraged and now perhaps, with God's help,*we shall succeed." Paanlebeig Drift, Feb. SI.— General Kelly-Kenny, in his pursuit of (ieneral Cronje, caught his rear guard at Klip drift and foi- lowed the burghers to the Boers' laager at Koodoosrund. The drift action began at daybreak, the mounted infantry driving the Boer rear guard up the river towards the main body, while another body of mounted infantry manouevered on the right front and flank of the Boers. The British main body advanced to outflank the Boers' laager on the north bank of the river, The first consequence ef this change, so far as the public is concerned, will be a great reduction in both freight and passenger tariffs. The construction department has charged an arbitrary tariff, not being in a position to regularly handle busii.ess. The regular tariffs of the C. P. R. system will now be extended to the new line, and through rates will be made fiom all points. This will mean a reduction of about 50% in freight rates and from 8 cents to 5 cents a mile in passenger rates. The road has nowcaught up with the arrears of traffic which accumulated when it was first put in operation, and all business is now going through ih good shape. The Rossland merchants are building up a good jobbing business in the Boundary country under the improved conditions.

In many places flags were flying at half-mast out of respect to the dead heroes. Victoria, Feb. 21.—In the legislature today, the premier read a telegram announcing 35 casualties among the Canadians in the battle of Modder river, and after a few words of sympathy with the bereaved, moved the adjournment of the house. He was followed by Turner in a similar strain and the house rose. Flags are at half mast all over town. It is the saddest day since the bridge disaster. MISCELIAVEOUS NOTES. Cronje's mobility seems to have run down. "Egg* is eggs" in Dawson. The price is $120 a case, and they have beeu cornered.

They fought until late Sunday evening. The Boers had one man killed and one wounded and captured booty and 21 horses. There was heavy firing this morning. He stormed several kopjes, which the British vacated, leaving their dead and wounded and forty prisoners in the hands of the Boers, who captured the kopjes. The Boer loss was two men killed and four wounded. The fight lasted until late in the evening." Cronje"* Account ofNattirday'* Ktglit. Pretoria, Feb 19.—A portion of an official report fiom Gen, Cronje, dated Feb. 18, has been given out as follows: "Yesterday morning about 6 o'clock, while removing the laager near Scholtznek, we were attacked by the British. The fight lasted until 7:30 in the evening. Although, on the whole, the British were driven back, they each time renewed the atta k. The loss to the British must have been considerable. Thus far the Boers' loss has been eight killed and 12 wounded. This morning the British shelled with cannon. Chief Commandant Fer- rieras'force was too small to stop the cavalry from entering Kimberly." London, Feb. 21.—A curious dispatch from Pretoria, dntedTuesday, Feb. 20, announces that Commandant Ferriera was killed Feb. 19, adding that his death was believed to be the result of an accident. Casualties Near Paardeberg. London, Feb. 21— 5:47 p. m.— The following has been received at the war office from Lord Roberts: "Paardeberg, Feb. 20.—Between Feb. 16 and 18 Major-Gen. Knox was wounded, Major-Gen. Hector McDonald severely wounded and Lt.-Col. Aldworth was killed." . The war office adds that no details of the fighting had yet been received. These casualties occurred in fighting near Paardeberg. Other officers killed were Captains Wardlaw and Newbury, of the duke of Cornwall's light infantry, and Lieutenants McClure of the Sea- forth Highlanders, Courtenay of the Argyle -ind Sutherland Highlanders, Siordet and Neave of the Yorkshire regiment, and Bright and Ball- Acton of the Oxford light infantry. Then follows the list of wounded. In Ihe Highland brigade 16 officers were wounded, including Gen. Hector Macdonald, Major H. F Mux- well, of the Black Watch, brother of Lord Farnham, and Lieut. Akers- Douglas, of the Argyle and Sutherland Highlanders, son of the Right Hon. Aretas Akers-Douglas, first commissioner of works, The Casualty Mat. London, Feb. 21.—An incomplete list of the recent British casualties gives nine officers killed, 39 wounded and one missing. 8,000 item. 21.—London cables to the morning papers say England is anxiously awaiting further and more definite news of Lord Roberts and his movements regarding Transvaal territory. Of actual news there is a dea.th. Of the strength of Gen. Cronje's force, the London correspondent of the Herald says that Cronje probably has with him, besides his original force of 10,000, 8000 invaders of ,■.*■■■ Cape Colony, some of whom were of the command that fought Cle- 1 ments at Colesberg, while others were at Stormberg. According to j some authorities, the Free Staters who are going from Colenso and Ladysmith will add 10,000 more to Cronje's ranks, if, indeed, they are able to join him.

Lorenzo Marquez, Feb. 20.—An official report received from Colonel Baden-Powell, of the occurrences in Mafeking up to February 3rd, concludes as follows: "General Snyman, in reply to a letter complaining of the deliberate shelling of the women's and children's laager, offered no excuse or apology and, by a transparent falsehood, admitted that- he ordered the shelling. I have told him that I have now established premises for prisoners in the women's laager and hospital." Telegraph to Kimberly. New York, Feb. 21.—The Commercial Cable company makes the following announcement: "We are advised that telegrams for Kimberly can now be accepted at sender's risk." Who Bought Hawkealey Letter*. London, Feb. 21.—The St. James Gazette says this afternoon that the stolen Hawkesley letters, which Mr. Chamberlain referred to yesterday evening, in the house of commons as having beep sold to Dr. Leyds for £100, "were purchased from the thief, tor what sum we do not know, by no less a personage than Dr. Clarke." The St. James Gazette then says it presumes Dr. Clarke transferred the letters to Dr. Leyds. Brown Clarke, Radical, is a member of parliament from Caithness. He was consul general of the South African republic prior to 1891. Boera Foiled at Arundel. Arundel dispatches, dated the 20th, show the Boers in force made a determined attempt to invest Arundel but were baffled by the smart maneuvering of the British mounted troops. Cecil Rhodes is expected to arrive in Cape Town on the 24th. mineral Output ol' B.C. In 1000. B. C. Review. A rough estimate of output for the year 1900 would place the output from lode mines at something like the following figures: Rossland $6,000,000 Nelson 2,000,000 Slocan 2,000,000 Boundary 2,000,000 Other districts 1,500,000 $13,500,000 This estimate is subject to two possible modifying factors, first the continuance or settlement of the labor troubles, which are affecting the Slocan, East Kootenay and Nelson districts, and second the possibility of much larger returns from the Boundary and other districts. Quartz milling is making such strides in B' C. that it is impossible to forecast what a year may or may not bring forth in this connection. Laical Stork Quotation* 4IKBB Athabasca 32 B C.

Treas London, Feb. 21.—At a meeting of the town council this morning, it was announced that news had reached Windsor castle that Ladysmith had been relieved. The announcement was received with immense enthusiasm and shouts of "Bravo Buller." Paris, Feb. 21.—The London correspondent of the Debats telegraphs that a dispatch has been received at Windsor announcing that Ladysmith has been relieved. London, Feb. at,—The rumor of the relief of Ladysmith has been current on the Berlin and London bourses. Though it is quite possible the report is true, there is no news corroborative of the rumor. (Government Han No New*. London, Feb. 21.—The president of the board of trade, Right. Hon. C. T. Ritchie, of the cabinet, announced in the house of commons at 6 o'clock this evening that the government had ao news of the relief of Ladysmith. Acro*a the Tugela Again. London, Feb. 21—4:27 p. m.— The war office has received the following from Gen. Buller: "Chieveley Camp, Feb. 21.—The fifth division crossed the Tugela river today by pontoons." Churchill |« Hopeful. New York, Feb. at,—Winston Churchill's account of General Buller's tourth attempt to reach Ladysmith is printed in the Woild. Mr. Churchill says: "At last we have got on their flank and, although fierce fighting lies before us, it will give us considerable strategical advantage and the relief of I. ivdsiiiitli looks a great deal more hopeful." London, Feb. 21.—The war office declares it is unable to substantiate the reports of the relief of Ladysmith. Official confirmation is eagerly twaited, especially as General Buller's dispatch of yesterday is very generally regarded as foreshadowing a juncture of his and General White's forces some time today. Puhlic interest, expectation and anxiety therefore sway unceasingly between Ladysmith and Blomfontein. The practical relief of the former place is regarded as due more to Field Marshal Roberts brilliant strategy in drawing off the Boers than to General Buller s numerous asaults, and news of the result of the battle between General Kitchener and General Cronje, reinforced by the forces thus drawn off from Ladysmith, is expected to almost synchronize with the announcement that General Buller has reached his objective point. The war office announced this afternoon that it had no news from either force. There is yet nothing to throw light on the main issues. Pluoier -fleet* a Repulse. Further details of the attack made by Colonel Plumer's forces on the Boer position defended by a 12- pounder near Crocodile pools, not far from Gaberones, show that as the British were struggling up the hill in the dark through a net of barbed wire, they alarmed the Boer watchdogs, who gave tongue. The Boers opened lire and the British charged, but the Boers exploded dynamite mines, doing much damage. The British retreated. SAILS WITH I'IMIIins.

The Slocan and its great mineral wealth has been extensively advertised and is now well known to investors who will come in this spring to avail themselves of tho opportunities of making the good investments that this country a fluids. All of our mines and the mining industry generally aro in good Bhape. The labor trouble is settled and it will be some time, if ever at all, before either shrle to the late dispute will feel like entering upon another Btrugqle.

The Redistribution Bill just brought down by Premier Semlin, whether it passes or not, is a just recognition of tbe importance of the Slocan, a recognition which its voting strength and population justifies. The Bill, whicli may or may not be one of expediency, is baped upon the principle of representation by population, which, altho it may leave out some Opposition members and wiil assuredly add to the Government ranks, is what representative government is popularly supposed to be. It would be hard to oppose this as a gerrymander while attempting to Uphold the last move made in the way of a redistribution of the constituencies. The anomaly of 28fi votes in West Lillooet or 342 in East Llllooet equaling over 900 Slocan votes will be done away with. Esquimau's 714 voters will no longer have twice the representation in the House that the Slocan- Knslo Riding had. The number of voters in what ia at present Mr. Green's constituency has steadily increased since the last election, there being now about 600 in each of the two Ridings being formed out of it. In any event, voters are assured of an early opportunity of exuressing themselves at the polls. The Victoria Times, the official Government organ, in speaking of the Bill says: "We believe that it is no secret that the members on the Government side of .the j House are weary of tbe present coudi- Perhaps THE MANY SUDDEN OHANGF'SIN THE WEATHKR HAS GIVEN YOU A COLD.
