PRINCETON, B.C., WEDNESDAY, JULY 24, J907. $2 a Year, in Advance BASEBALL AT TULAMEEN. The Princeton baseball team will journey to Tulameen Cily on Sunrlav, the 28th, to try conclusions with the latter team. The Tulameen players are anxious to wipe out the defeat they suffered at Princeton in the opening game of the season on May 24th and have been practicing with that end in view for some time. Reports from there say they are in fine form and they can be depended on to hand out the real dope. The local team will leave earlv in the morning re turning the same evening. The players to represent Princeton will probably be: Campbell", Macdonnell, Gibson. Young, Rvder, Hughes, Kit Summers, Gordon, L. Huston. A number of supporters of the team w'll take advantage of the trip and accompany the bovs. The Tulameen fel lows are real good sports aud they can be depended on to do the right thing. Princeton Receiving Attention Chief Officials of Great Northern Railway Follow President Hill's Visit Here=== Good Results will Follow* STORING COAL UNDER WATER. The idea of keeping fuel for fires in a perpetually flooded condition is novel to this country, although the practice is familiar to the English. The best way of storing coal is one ofthe serious problems that confront the modern manufacturer. The frequency of strikes in the mining regions, the shor'age of cars on the railways, labor difficulties of the transportation companies, are among the causes that contribute to the uncertainty ofthe coal supply aud make it imperative that a large stock of fuel should be kept constantly on hand, in order that the wheels of industry may not cease to turn On the other hand, the danger of spontaneous combustion must be faced, and carefully executed tests have shown that when coal is exposed to the air nearly 30 per cent, of the heating value is lost within the short space of six weeks. Experiments made by the British Admiralty at Portsmouth, England, have shown that if the coal is stored in bins that are kept flooded both ofthe above objections are obviate'd. In fact, in a period of storage lasting from six months to a year only 2 per cent, of its heating value was lost and the experiment was successful in every other way. This method is now being tried in this country by the Hawthorne Works of the Western Electric Company of Chicago— one ofthe most up-to date of our industrial establishments. Two storage bins, one of 4,000 and the other 10,000 tons capacity, both located below the normal ground level, have been constructed. Into these coal may be dumped from cars and removed when it is needed by means of a locomotive crane fitted with a grab bucket.—Mining Reporter. Summers and Wardle, butchers are erecting a handsome two-storey stable at the rear of their butcher shop on Bridge street. That the time is near at hand for important railway development in the Sim ilkarnen would seem to be proved by the attention that is now being given to this part of the country by men high up in the railway world Last week the Star chronicled the visit of no less a personage than the president of the Great Northern Railway, Louis W. Hill, who was accompanied by Chief Engineer Hogeland. Mr. Hill came, saw, and went away convinced that the Similkameen was possessed of wonderful resources that were lying dormant for the want of railway facilities. 'His visit is bound to tend to the construction of his road through this valley at the earliest possible moment. What Mr. Hill saw in Princeton satisfied him that there should be tonnage the moment he reached this point. He stated that had it tiot been for unforeseen obstacles, obstacles that had crippled for a time operations, his rcftd would have been in Princeton at the present date. The work would be proceeded with at the earliest possible moment, said the president, and there is encouragement in that. This week witnesses another visit from Great Northern Railway magnates, in the parsonnel of W. W. Broughton, gen eral traffic manager; W. P. Kenney, assistant traffic manager; M. J. Costello, industrial agent, with head offices at St. Paul; Max Bass, immigration agent, Chicago, and H. M. Adams, assistant traffic manager at Seattle. W. T. Clark, who has made a name for himself in connection with irrigation work in Win- atchee, accompanied them in. The party arrived in Princeton yesterday afternoon at 5:30 o'clock, having left Keremeos at 4 a. m. the same morning. On the way up a stop was made at Hedley for lunch and a visit was paid the Nickle Plate mine. The party are out on a general tour of inspection and are on their way home from the coast, where they report business flourishing. The evident motive of the trip in here was to become personally acquainted with existing conditions enabling them to intelligently lay the matter before the directors. Mr. Broughton speaks glowingly of what he has seen here and says Princeton will not seem so far away after this. Although the office at St. Paul was furnished with maps and all kinds of information touching the Similkameen, he jokingly remarked that he had imagined it somewhere in the region ofthe north pole. When ones takes into account the ignorance of even the coast people regarding the Similkameen, this is not to be wondered at. After dinner Messrs. Costello, Max Bass, and Clark drove up the Similkameen as far as Stevenson's ranch, lately- purchased by the Great Northern, while Messrs. Broughton, Kenney, and Adams visited the coal mine, at which they were greatly pleased. Ea>h member of the party has gained new ideas of the Similkameen which cannot but fail to Dear good results. And they all expressed the belief that Princeton, owing to her advantageous situation, has a bright future. On being questioned regarding constiuction from Keremeos to Princeton this year, Mr. Broughton and the other officials were somewhat reticent, saying there was nothing to give out beyond what Mr. Hill had stated when here last week. The party pulled out at an early hour this morning on the return journey to itheir various headquarters. IMMIGRANTS FOR B. C. At the annual meeting of the Victoria Board of Trade held recently, Minister of Finance Tatlow announced that the Government had completed definite arrangements with the Salvation Army for bringing immigrants to British Columbia this year. He explained the difficulty in getting the immigrants past Ontario and Manitoba, where the demand for agricultural laborers is great, but by advancing a part of the passage money this difficulty has at last been overcome. The labor will be agricultural and domestic. G. T. P. PROGRESS. Progress made during the past twelve months on the Grand Trunk Pacific road between Saskatoon and Edmanton gives more reassuring prospects of an early completion than the work has hitherto indicated. About 1,200 men and 900 teams of horses are employed on the work. Seventy-five miles of road is graded from Saskatoon west, and with the large force employed now it is expected that over 100 miles west from Saskatoon will be completed by August m LOCAL AND GENERAL. Postoffice Inspector Greenfield paid an official visit to Princeton on Wednesday last. The death occurred at Aspen Grove on Thursday last of the little girl twin of the late Mrs. Howarth, at the age of 7 weeks. • Jno. Tanahill and family of Hope, passed through Princeton on Saturday last on their way visit Mr. Thynne at Otter Valley. Hon. Edgar Dewdney left on Thursday morning for the coast, accompanied by Miss E. Allison. Sam McCoskery has accepted a position' with the Granby people at Bear creek and left for his new quarters Tuesday morning. '» J. A. Bromley, accompanied by Miss Bromley and son, returned on Saturday last from a trip to Hope,-bringing back with them a flock of sheep. D. R. Tait, A. F. McDonald, and Mr. Duchesney left for the coast on Sunday last, going out by way of the Hope trail. Road foieman Goldsborough is experiencing a great deal of difficulty in securing men for road work at present. Some fifteen men are wanted for the work of lowering the grade at Holmes' flat and at $$ pei day they are hard to get. Robt. Stevenson returned on Saturday from an extended trip to Hedley where he 'has been doing development on a group of claims in that vicinity. Hugh Hunter left foi Hedley yesterday where he will meet Provincial Government Offices Inspector Gopell, who is on his annual tour of inspection. They will drive up to Princeton to morrow. INVESTS IN PRINCETON. N. Bangs, who arrived from Spokane a week ago last Saturd y, in connection with his timber interests here, left yesterday afternoon to look over some of the- limits, accompanied by his son, W G.. Bangs, C. O. French, and S. Moore- Mr. Bangs will then.go over the Hope- trail to the coast, returning to Spokane via Vancouver and Portland. Before leaving Princeton he purchased several lots and on his return here in a few week will erect a building and open an office when he will be able to personally supervise the extensive lumbering operations which his company intend to carry on here. Mr. Bangs looks upon Princeton as a great industrial center, and coming from a man of his wide experience and observation, carrys weight. The operations of his company will mean a big thing for Princeton, and he can be depended upon to speak a good word for the Similkameen and Princeton in particular among our American cousins, from whom we must look to in a great measure for the development of the great latent resources of this district. * V •mmmm July 24, 1907 THE SIMILKAMEEN STAR MB THE SIMILKAMEEN STAR July 24, 1907 The Similkameen Star B.

OUR MINERAL PRODUCTION The annual report on the mining industry of the Province for the year euding Dec. 31, 1906, just issued by the Provincial Government, contains a vast amount of interesting and useful information, and the Provincial Mineralogist, Wm. Fleet Robertson, is deserving of credit for the completeness of the work. The value of the mineral products of the Province show a steady increase, the production for 1906 being '$24,980,546, which is ir.2 per cent, greater than that of the preceding year and 42 8 per cent, greater than it was three years ago. The returns show that the increase this year is due chiefly to the Boundary and coast districts. Kast Kootenay and Cariboo about held their own, while West Kootenay and L/illopet show a considerable decrease. The tonnage of ore mined, exclusive of coal, was 1,963,872, 15 per cent, greater than 1905, the number of mines shipping being put down at 154, and of these only 77 shipped over 100 tons each. The gross output cf the coal mines for the year was 1,899,076 tons, which, with 17,230 tons taken from stock, makes a total consumption of 1,916,306 tons. Of this total amount, 1,361,728 tons weresold as coal, of which 681,899 tons were for home consumption and 679,829 tons were exported, while 381,773 tons were used in making coke. The amount of coke made was 199,227 tons, which, together with 11,670 tons taken from stock, made the sales for the year 210,897 tons. The production of placer gold for the year was $948,400, a decrease of 2.2 per cent, from 1905, while that produced 'from lode mining was $4 630,639, of which 95 per cent, was recovered from the smelting oi copper-bearing ores. Silver was nuiita to the amount of 2,990,262 uuiReh, valued at $1,- 879,320, a slight .decrease from the preceding year. The amount of lead produced in 1906 was 52,408,217 pounds, valued at $2,667,578, a decrease of 4,172,- 486 pounds froth-. 19135. The greater of the production comes from the Fort Steel division. The copper output in 1905 was the largest the Province had ever made, but the production of 1906 .eclipses it by 5,298,237 pounds, an increase of 12 32 per cent., while the value of the total product this year is $2,412,343 in excess of the preceding year, an increase of 41 per cent. The production for r9o6 was 42,990,488 pounds, valued at $8,288,565. The increase is chiefly attributable to the Boundary district, although there is an increase in the coast district, but Rossland shows a decrease. There was no iron ore mined in the Province during the year on account of there being no market for it on the Pacific coast. The production of zinc ore was small, only some 654 tons, and the industry has been practically a stand still. Platinum continues to be found in small quantities in various parts of the Province, notably in the Simiikameen district, on the Ques- nel river in Cariboo, on Thibert creek in Cassiar, and in the Yukon. The latest find was at Lillooet, where a few on rices of crude plat ium sand were saved by a prospector washing for gold. Tbe mining recorder's report for tbe Similkameen mining division is contained in the report and is somewhat brief, merely touching on development work being done on a few claims at Bear Creek. Revenue collected for the year was $5,170.05, made up as follows: Free miners' certificates, $1,464.90; mining receipts general, $2,934.15; acreage tax mineral claims, $771. J. DANAHER & CO.

Weak Women - To weak and ailing women, there is at least one way to help. But with that way. two treatments, must be combined. One is local, one is constitutional, but both are important, both essential. Dr. Shoop's Night Cure is the Local. I Dr. Shoop's Restorative, the Constitutional. The former—Dr. Shoop's Niglit Cure—is a topical mucous membrane suppository remedy, while Dr. Shoop's Restorative is wholly an internal treatment. The Restorative reaches throughout the entire system, seeking the repair of all nerve, all tissue, and all blood ailments. The "Night Cure", as its name implies, does its work while you sleep. It soothes sore and inflamed mucous surfaces, heals local weaknesses and discharges, while the Restorative, eases nervous excitement, gives renewed vigor and ambition, builds up wasted tissues, bringing about renewed strength, vigor, and energy. Take Dr. Shoop's Restorative—Tablets or Liquid—as a general tonic to the system. For positive local help, use as well Dr. vShoop's Nig'Ht Cure sold by J. R.
