Speechmaking, Sports, Parade and Ball—Hedley Brethren Join in 'Doings.' The celebration of the Battle of the Boyne was duly observed by the Orangemen of Princeton and Hedley assembln g here and forming procession to the grounds ou Fenchurch Av., where the oration wasoeTivered by Rev. Bro. Kinney. C. L. Cummings, W.M., occupied the chair and alter well chosen, introductory remarks of welcome, was followed by the speakers, Bro. Jamieson, W.M. of Hedley lodge, who, iu a neat speech extolled Orangeism, and Rev. ±(ro. Kinney, who delivered a rousing address, replete with sound doctrine aud good advice. The rev. gentleman is a powerful speaker and impresses an audience with his sincerity. He is popular with all Protestants and has attaim d fame as having been first to conquer Mt. Robson, one of the higher peaks of the Canadian Rockies. The Orangemen of Princeton are to be commended for their zeal in having brought together so many of the brethren and for the success of their first celebration. With four secret ^societies as a oeginning Princeton is destined to become a head centre for their annual celebrations, picnics, &c. Next year it is hoped that suitable grounds will be available for Orange and all other demonstrations. In the principal sports events Hedley won in the tug-of war ; Vic Ryder won in the long and high jumps; Mrs. Mc- Corkle in the married women's race and R Jameson beat putting; the shot. The children's races created much amusement. The ball in the evening was well patronized and the music provided py the Princeton orchestra tnucn appreciated. 'Big Bill Martin as director of ceremonies makes good. A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS. ] Hans Lof had the misfortune to lose a hand by explosion while at work on the railway grade west of Princeton last Wednesday. He returned too soon to a charge that he supposed had missed fire. Hans had only two more days' work to finish his contract when the accident occurred. Being a hard working, industrious and likable man much sympathy is expressed for him in this very serious accident. He was taken to Hedley hospital and attended by "Dr. McEwen. Andy Gray, in the employ of Madden & Hankinson, railway contractors, had his leg broken last week by a log rolling on him. Jas. McKay, while bulldozing rocks on the railway the other day had his arm badly lacerated. Dr. Mc^Caffery attended both he and Mr. Gray and sent them to Hedley hospital. I Maurice Daly, of Keremeos, while riding a runaway horse bareback rounding up others was thrown by the stumbling animal which fell on him, breaking his forearm near the wrist. The accident occurred last Sunday and was attended by Dr. McCaffery, who reduced the fracture, and the patient is now doing as well as can be expected. THE PRINGLE COMPANY. The P.ingle Stock Company will open a short season at the I.O.O.F. Hall on Thursday, (tomorrow) July 14th. This excellent organization is the oldest stock company in Canada, having played all the larger cities in the eastern and west- t rn provinces.

The opening of the Similkameen hotel last Monday makes another important addition to the public houses of Princeton. It is situated on Vermilion Av., just west of the court housKand as that street is one of the main arteries of town the position will always be eligible and convenient. The house is plastered and the floors deadened, so that transmission of sound from one apartment to another will practically be overcome. Every comfort of guests was studied in the construction and that this has beeu attained an inspection will certainly prove. The rooms are first class and the table will be supplied with the best the market affords. A commercial sample room is provided. Splendid light is furnished throughout.

It would be a great misfortune to have our forests destroyed and possibly other property, if not life, along with them. Every precaution is being taken to prevent fires and anybody starting one will be severely dealt with. Mrs. Olding and sister, mother and aunt of Mrs. HTHmnter, are visiting her- during the summer. Fire Chief Campbell was called' out about 1 a.m. Sunday morning to put out a blazing lamp in the Clay building on Bridge street. Some person carelessly left the lamp turned too high and it was only the promptness of the chief bursting the door in that aveited an explosion and probable fire. At the meeting held last Friday evening to consider a^iroposition for the ac quisition of athletic grounds and race track the following committee was appointed to act, and report* at a future meeting: W. Garrison, Chairman ; Bert Thomas, C. Summers, G yMurdock, L. Huston. Mr. and Mrs. King, parents of Mrs. S. R. Gibson, Goldbank Farm, are visiting there at present. A dance will be given at the Otter Flat hotel, Mrs. W. J. Henderson, on Tuly 15th, (Friday). Fverybody welcome. Groffman & Rose have sold lot 13 in block 8. F.

If you want to throw something at somebody or some enterprise let it be the good word or boost, otherwise keep your mouth shut. Knockers are the fungi of socitty, living on the generosity and public spiritedness of others. J. D. Lumsdeu, manager of the Princeton branch of the A. E. Howse Co., left for Vancouver on Monday. It is understood he will return alone this time. GRANITE CREEK NEWS. (From Our Special Correspondent.) The Columbia CoaL^fc Coke Co. are tunnelling about a jmle'from Granite. Chas. Camsell, Dominion geologist, is investigating the North Fork section. A new bridge is being bnilt across Granite Creek by W. H. Holmes and crew. A proposition is before the Welldo Townsite Co. to install an uptodate waterworks system. The Co. has acquired all the water in Onemile creek, a sparkling, mountain-fed stream. MINES AND MINING. Princeton is admittedly a fine location for a smelter. Coking coal and ore in abundance. Star will gladly answer any correspondents regarding the establishment of this industry. Billy Knight came down from Whip- saw Monday and as instrumentalist was present at the Orange ball. He reports work still in progress on the Lucky Pair with favorable indications of approach to ledge. Knight & Day have done a lot of really hard development work on their property and are deserving the reward they are so perseveringly in search of. Ben Baker, Billy Fearless and L. McMullen are at Whipsaw, doing assessment work on their claims. Ben has uncovered a ledge, but the others seem to have encountered deeper wash. Jack Crowley and Tuck French were down recently from Whipsaw and report good s"howings on Sam Spencer's claim where development work is in progress. Steve Young, a prospector of continental experience, struck camp last week after an absence of several years. He comes now from Mexico and is beading toward Whipsaw.

Pending a full exposure and, it is to be hoped, restitution by the promoters of this swindle, no good can come of bitter personal attacks in the press. The law of Canada is sufficient in cases of this kind. It is strange how easily some people can be buncoed, for Wireless employed all the well known inflation methods of fraudulent schemes. A GOOD ADVERTISEMENT. One of the many beneficial re- salts derived from the celebration of Dominion Day as recently carried out in Princeton, is observed in the good advertising which the town and district received. Strangers, who had'only heard of Princeton before, now came to see and prove the things which they had heard and read. So favorable an impression had been carried away by visitors that it is not improbable investments or commercial relations may follow. From sister towns in the valley it was expected that a strong delegation would come and help demonstrate the day, but it ..remained for our American cousins and brothers to not only enthuse and demonstrate but boost also. The Oroville Gazette, represented by Editor Dallam at the celebration, gave two and a half big columns of matter relating to Princeton and tbe sports. ' It says : 'There is no town along the B.C. border, on that side of the line, that has richer resources and brighter promise of making a city of great magnitude than Princeton. It is surrounded by and built upon a vast coal field. It is not a coking coal, but a most excellent fuel for domestic use. Besides the coal there are vast deposits of high grade copper ore in the immediate vicinity. Men of means are beginning to realize the importance of Princeton as a field for investment. Several American companies are gaining a foothold, and henceforward development with accompanying results will be much more rapid. From its naturally advantageous location and the extensive and exceptionally rich mineral resources existing so near at hand, to a disinterested observer it would; seem that nothing can prevent Princeton from forging to the front and becoming one of the most important cities along the Great Northern road.' The foregoing is of great value, coming from one who has no pecuniary interest in the country. As an advertisement, by those who intelligently appreciate and practise advertising, the Gazette has well repaid the trouble and expense of the celebration. The Nicola Valley board of trade stirred up Telephone Supt. Stevens and now Merritt will have an exchange and lineman. Board of trade resolutions are great correctives and there should be more of them where public grievances and nuisances are permitted by the government. K. C.

The Copper Handbook gives statistics and general information on one hand, with thousands of detailed mine descriptions on the other, covering the copper mines of the entire world, and the 40 pages of condensed statistical tables alone are worth more than the price of the book to each and every owner of copper miuing shares.
