Procunier will next Sunday [the 23rd] address the people of Ainsworth at 11 a. m., and the people of Pilot Bay at 7'30 p.m. The Nelson people are making extensive preparations for the 1st of July celebration. They may expect a large contingent from Kaslo. Nelson is all alive this week. Fully 100 strangers are there, possibly to take in the assizes. Justice Walkem and the Attorney General are there from the capital. Jap King has returned from a trip to the regions round about Ft. Steele. He made some locations at the head of Weaver creek and brought back with him some fine specimens of gold-bearing rook. Fitzpatrick & Co.'s barber shop has a new awning���neat and very beneficial. Their large new barber pole will certainly, when finished and set out in front of the shop, attract attention. It is tasty and symetrical in design. The Idaho Avalanche, published at Silver City, Idaho, is this week welcomed to our exchange table. It is aboVe the average country newspaper in general apperance and���one thing we like to see��� sensible in editorials.

All are cordially invited. fine week from Friday [tomorrow] will be examination and closing day for the Kaslo public school. The teacher, Miss Kane, and pupils are preparing a literary program, interesting and meritous, for the occasion, and hope to see many of the parents and the friends of the school attend. The so-called "New York" beer, the Spokane brewery that makes it, and the saloons selling it, are "let alone" by laboring men in Spokane and elsewhere, because the proprietor persists in buying his malt from a "scab" malt house in San Francisco, in preference to houses employing union labor. Pabst Bohemia special brew logger beer at the Adams hotel only. * The population on Nob hill iB creasing quite rapidly of late. A good number of residences have just been erected there, and Mr. Carney has one nearing -coinple- . tion, while several others are listed as among the' probabilities of the near future. This is the only portion of the city having waterworks, Kane & Kane's system supplying it, and the location of the school house there makes it a very desirable residence site for families with .children. Among those families but recently domiciled in Kaslo who will prove worthy and valuable aquisi- tions to Kaslo's social circles, we may mention: Robt. Irving, secretary of the K. & S. R'y, and wife; Mr. Woolsey, draughtsman of the same railway, wife and two little ones; Mr. Long, barber, wife and three children; Rev. C. A. Procunier, wife and baby; the family of merchant J. B. Wilson (formerly here but now just from Spokane); the wife and children of James Henderson of the 4th street meat market. THE CONCERT. The first number was an opening chorus, sung by, Mesdames McPhee, Green, Keen, VVright and Millington, Misses Cameron and Brown, and Messrs. Whitely, Fawcett, Wright, Smith and C. Moore. Then followed a reading.pf Mrs. Caudle's lecture, by Mr. ItfcKer- acher. Mrs. S. H. Green sang with Miss Brown a duet���the beautiful Southern love song, "Juanita." Mrs. Keen presided at the piano for this and for all following vocal selections. Her playing was one of the most truly delightful features of the entertainment, A male chorus of. six voices followed this. The gentlemen sing pretty well, except that their enunciation is rather indistinct, making the words of the song difficult to understand. They were encored. Number five was a solo, ''Laugh- ing Eyes," sung by Mrs. McPhee, with quartette chorus. Sixth, -instrumental duet, Miss Brown playing' violin and Miss Maggie Ediams the piano. Miss Ediams' performance was excellent and pleasing throughout; while Miss Brown gave evidence of some talent and study on her part. Rev. C. A. Procunier read a selection, containing very fine poetic sentiment, entitled, "The Three Wolves." From an elocutionary standpoint, his interpretation of the piece was perfect, his expression very good, but the enunciation was slightly indistinct, rendering a number of the words bard to recognize readily. The eighth number was a solo by Miss Minnie Brown, the Btar of the evening, and the audience cheered as she stepped to the platform. The sweet familiar notes notes of "Suanee River" were what we heard. The two closing lines of the first stanza and the last half of the second were rendered with especially touching effect. Responding to an encore, she sang, "The Spider and the Fly." Ninth, a pianoforte selection by Mrs. Keen���a treat to all music lovers present. A male chorus, Messrs. Allen, Twiss and Procunier, together with the gentlemen named as in the opening chorus. In another violin and pianoforte duet the Misses Brown and Ediams acquitted themselves equally well as in their first selection. The "Cradle Song," by Mrs. Mc- Thee, was next. In response to encore, she repeated the second verse, singing it very beautifully indeed. Mr. Twiss, in his solo, "King's Own," pleased the audience so well that that he had to respond to an encore. A French dialect recitation by Mr. McKeracher delighted the audience. He was recalled and read a very amusing selection. Miss Brown sang another solo, and then in well chosen words,. in her own behalf, thanked- the audience for its attendance, and those who had assisted in the entertainment. There were present 100 persons, and it is the concensus of opinion that the affair was a suc- ccess in all particulars. The proceeds were for the benefit of Miss Minnie Brown to assist her in obtaining a musical eduoation in Spokane. The best wishes of the ladies of Kaslo go with her in her efforts, and they hope her voice may, after a season of training, charm audiences elsewhere as it has here.

The other claim referred to is the Las Vegas, owned by Alex Harrison of Kaslo. It is situated fully half a mile east of the Little Daisy, and its owner knew several months ago that ottes on it assayed 80, 50, 65 and 95 | dollars per Jon. The gold on tliis claim is associated with "arsenical iron," however, and no free gold was discovered on it before this spring, Besides these two there were perhaps twenty other locations in the Red Mts.; but, so far as I know, only one other claim had been tested for gold, and the highest assay on ores from it was reported at $6 per ton. Early this spring while Harrison was sitting in his cabin at Kaslo, the thought struck him that there might be and ought to be free gold on the Las Vegas. Luckily he had by him a few pieces of ore that he had brought down last fall, after finishing assessment work. So he began breaking these and eagerly he looked for the good money metal. I need not tell you that he looked not in vain, for had he I would not now be writing you. At that time the snow was at least ten feet deep over the Las Vegas, but the discovery made Harrison restless and he came at once to Silverton, Here he wearily waited for the snow to settle to a depth not over his head and then he ventured up the dangerous mountain and brought back a load of samples. On this claim there are discovered three distinct veins, parallel and about thirty feet apart. The upper vein is solid mispickel ore about 12 inches thick. The middle vein is about 86 inches thick and carries quartz with mispickel. The other is about 18 inches thick, quartz and less mispickel, the quartz being of a sparry character. AU the samples were obtained from the 18 inch vein, though previous assays had been made prin- [Concluded on 2nd page.] Exeuralon, Pic-nle and Dance. Kaslo Lodge A. F. & A.

It seems to be the mania and delight of the Nelson Tribune to do injury to someone. In its issue of June 8th appeared an article entitled: "The Time Check Fraud," in which it was stated as fact that Foley Bros. & Guthrie were paying their men in time checks which could be cashed only under discount at the company's store. The Tribune certainly must have known that this was a deliberate lie, for: 1st, The Prospector has more than once announced that June 15th would be the first pay day; and therefore no payment of any kind, either checks or money could have been in the hands of the men before one week after the article in the tribune was printed ���unless an advance payment were made through the courtesy of the the superintendent. 2nd. The Prospector has from time to time given publication to the fact that Foley Bros. & Guthrie are business men, transact their business on business principles and pay cash 100 cents on the dollar for labor. 3rd. An excellent law is now in force (fathered in the legislature by Mr. Kelley, M. P. P. north riding West. Kootenay) which prohibits the use of time checks in payment for labor, and no firm would dare, by a course antagonistic to Kaslo's business interests, lay itself liable to the heavy penalties provided hy that act. We advise the Tribune to here after know what the truth is before permitting such criticisms of business men to appear in its columns. It should take the example of the Prospector and accept news from only reliable sources. The weakness in style of composition shows that the article was not written in the Tribune office; but what malicious, or idiotic and dyspeptic, agitator in Kaslo could have reason for or object in writing and having published such a barefaced and damaging lie, we cannot imagine. It is damaging both to the reputation of the company, and to the business interests and reputation of Kaslo, and certainly can do no one any good. Wm. Sands, AND GENERAL REPAIRING. Horse-Shoeing a Specialty. 4th St., Kaslo. Owing to the absence of. our regular proof-reader, it is quite probable that a number of typographical errors will appear in this issue. The first of the week, A. E. Humphreys, president of the three Du- luth-Detroit syndicate companies operating in the Slocan, accompanied by Wm. H. Yawlcey, son of W- C. Yawkey who is financing the syndicate, passed through Kaslo- to look at the companies' properties ��� in the Slocan. At the same time, via Robson, the Columbia river, Nakusp, and the Nakusp & Slocan' railway, Frank Cox, secretary of the companies, and W. C. Yawkey also entered the Slocan district.

The Railway Exemption By- Law was defeated by a vote of 32, against to 31 for it; three-fifths being required to carry it. Thus the. people of Kaglo have decided the, question, We consider the criticism and abuse heaped upon our Mayor and, Councilmen in the last two issues of the Nelson Tribune to be the height of injustice. The fabled meeting prior to incorporation is shrouded so deeply in the mists of the past that scarce, two legends agree concerning its actions and intentions. That an exemption was then voted all admit, . but what the exemption was and what the conditions upon which it was given, were the points of dispute. It is a matter that had to be submitted to the people for final decision; and the sooner done, the better. In submitting the matter to the rate-payers the Council simply did its plain and unmistakable duty. The Mayor and Council were not responsible ���for the action of that meeting, but if a contract was entered into by the people of the city at that meeting, the Mayor and Council had a responsibility at least to the extent of permitting the people to interpret and carry out that contract. This responsibility they have properly discharged; and the people- have by their vote said that the exemption was conditioned upon the then immediate construction of the railroad and was intended to include only land and personal property used for railroad purposes.

I made several assays from the samples brought, and found them of a uniform richness far above ���any possible expectations. Had the gold been silver the ounces of it per ton in even the lowest assay would have made it good shipping ore, though the highest assay was "only 139,4 ounces gold per ton, ���worth $2881.40. However, all the samples pulverized into one and thoroughly mixed gave an assay of 129.6 ozs. :gold per ton, and a pan test gave = about one-fifth the gold as free. ��� The free gold is very fine,1 all of it going through an 80 mesh sieve, and I do not expect any free' gold in this claim when much depth ��� shall have been reached. ; These results were freely reported here ��� and at New Denver; but whether seven months of winter had thickened their blood and no sassafras tea was available or because they are naturally lymphatic ' and sluggish or for some other reason, still, certain it is that no general excitement nor hardly a ripple of it was caused by the report. Only Harrison and a few others believed it and realized its significance, and they at once spread 'themselves over the ground nearest the Las Vegas from which snow had disappeared, and they have already made several locations on all of which good gold ore has been found. Others, too, having old locations in the vicinity, have been sufficiently stirred up to look after their stakes and to have a few assays made for gold, with the result that they almost realize that their claims are valuable only because of the gold on them.. I have now made above seventy- five assays on ores from this district, and I remember-no other instance of a set of prospects covering so much ground and so uniformly showing . gold of aB good grade as these. About thirty of these assays have been made on ore from the "L. H.," a new location by Harrison. This claim iB situated north ,of the Las Vegas and west of the Carbonate Hill, and the gold^iear- ing ledge or vein of it is at least sixty feet wide, the hanging wall being of porphyry and the foot wall of granite. The first assay from this ledge .was from float. It contained 8.6 ounces gold per ton, worth $173 We have since sampled twice across the ledge in sections of from .3 to 8 feet. On first trial one section ,of 8 feet assayed $37 per ton and an adjoining section of three feet assayed $25, while three other sections of from 5 to 8 ft. assayed above $15 per ton, eachi Several tests for concentration were then made, and these showed that, concentrating from 4 to 20 per cent, a product asBaying from $43 to $275 was obtained and that above 70 per cent of the gold was paved by the process. The second sampling gave much better results. Three adjoining sections of tlie ledge, 6, 3 and 8 ft. respectively in width, gave large samples that assayed $60, $28 and $125 per ton, in order; thus showing 17 feet of rather high grade ore. No concentrating tests were made on this second lot. Now, if anybody has a better prospect than this, will he please let us know? for we 'd be glad to stake an extension. And will somebody please inform us why such a showing as this in a camp that is ' much in need of something to waVe it up is received with a stare and a gape? Being utterly disgusted by the apathy here manifested we send you this hoping that it may fall under the eyes of someone who can realize what these figures and facts mean and wijose blood is thin enough to permit them their due effect. For here the claims are and we are anxious for some one with vim and money to come and see ��� them, test them and prove that we have to no extent misrepresented. The development of these claims will give us glorious times in our camp, and why should' we wait longer?' There is gold in plenty here in shape to yield immense profits, so tho prospects promise; and let 's get 'er niovin'. J. M. M. Benedum, MISS BELL, / MmNin AND FANCY DRY GOODS.

He is making a tour of the country again, in the interest of the Vancouver World. There is no mountain so high- but what he gets to the t��p. AQd. there are few newspaper men even in Kootenay who have seen xnqte of the different sections than J. T. Wilkinson. Therefore, what he writes can usually be relied on. Aside from him, we are not aware of a single newspaper man at the coast who has any intelligent idea of the geography of West Kootenay. This can be proven by picking up any issue of the coast papers in which they refer to Kootenay. Some of them da not know how many papers are printed here, and what credit is given them is often misplaced by 30 or 40 miles. APPLICATION FOR LIQUOR LICENSE Notice is hereby given that the undersigned will at the expiration of thirty days apply to the Stipendiary Magistrate of West Kootenay district for a license to sell liquor at retail in his Hotel at Watson. Dated; Watson, June 12,1805, L. WlLLIY. "The Prospector is venturing upon dangerous ground. It advises the 'ladies of Kaslo,' as to their social duties and obligations under certain circumstances. The 'ladies of Kaslo' understand their duty, and will perform it independently of advice or suggestion."��� Kaslo Correspondent of the Nelson Tribune. In view of the Prospector's article which this referB to, we say unqualifiedly that, we consider it beneath the dignity of any gentleman to pen the. above paragraph. While it says nothing directly, the insinuation carried is .deBpicable. As our business rival, we naturally expect the Tribune correspondent to rehash our news columns for his readers and oppose our views on all questions of public policy; but we certainly are surprised that he should stoop to the indignity of casting deliberate insult to families without a blemish upon their character, families as good, as refined, as cultured as any in Kaslo. We are glad to know, however, that the Kaslo ladies have taken kindly to the Prospector's suggestion, and as a result are pleased with the new acquaintances made and new friendships formed.
