KASLO, B, C, THURSDAY, JULY 11, 1895, S&5BE HALF DONE. *s ? i Sue Thousand Un at Work on the Kaslo 1 & Slocan M MADE RAPID PROGRESS With the Grading. The Entire Line ""��� will be Heady for the Tie. and Ball* Within Sixty Day.. Mr. Chas. Ffolliptt, the superintendent of the Kaslo & Slocan Railway, is always ready to give information cheerfully regarding the progress of the work on that iill-important line. He stated to 'the Prospector yesterday that the men employed on the work (including tie and bridge men) number one thousand; and that while ;no one section of the grade is entirely completed, more than half of the 30 miles is in shape. Contractors McDonnell, Jim Welsh and Pat Welsh, who have the first :three sections of three miles each on the Kaslo end of the line, will each be through with their work within thirty days, and there is none of the grading on the line that will not he finished within "60 days. Steel rails for the road will begin to arrive in Kaslo by the 20th of the present month, and soon" thereafter a construction train ' will be put on and the road completed within the time specified ftt the commencement of building. HERE AND THERE. A Long Wharf, Porter Bros, have commenced the construction of a wharf 1,000 feet in length and 24 feet in width for the Kaslo <fe Slocan railway company. A large force of men will be employed on the work as the wharf is needed1 immediately to receive the rails for the rbacl. Bonner's Ferry reports a stampede to the Yahk.

San Francisco and Kaslo are ,rated the beBt "show towns" on the .coast. They are the favorite towns , of the Addis sisters. Recently the papers were full of the courtship .and marriage of one of the sisters .and Lord Sholto Douglas; and now it appears that the other two .sisters, now in Kaslo, are making ,conquests scarcely less notable. In this connection are mentioned the names of a very prominent politician and wealthy mine owner .of the state of Washington and of .a young banker of the same state. The North Fork Again. It is known that within two weeks C. P. R, officials have made ?twb tripB up the North Fork of ���Carpenter creek and that they hold .options on some mineral claims ithere. Should they conclude the purchase and develop the properties an impetus will be given to mining operations there that will ibe gratifying to many. A Youthful Operator. During Mr. E. C. Pease's absence in the hills, Phil Hughes has entire charge of the telegraph office. Phil has been attentive to business and now has a knowledge ot how io handle the electric current that insures him a permanent position frith the company. Easy to Do. The cheerful manner fn which Kaslojtes dive their digits down into their pockets to help out any public enterprise is proverbial. This Epirit waP exemplified thuB again whdn the "property owner? around one street crossing, Front and 4th, gave $250 toward the purchase of two lots for the city, to be used for city purposes. About the City Bond.. The Mayor and Council have had several offers for the $10,000 in bonds of the municipality voted by the rate-payers, but are in no hurry to sell them. Not only are they meeting all current expenses but it is thought that the proposed city hall may be built and paid for without'drawing upon the proceeds of the proposed bond sale. Give Credit Where Due. The provincial government appropriation of $200 for the Kaslo fire department in '94 had been allowed, to hjpse. But, seeing the need of a well-equipped fire department, Mayor John Keen wrote for both the present year's appropriation of $200 and also for the $200 which had lapsed, and after much difficulty succeeded in hav" ing both amounts placed \o the city's credit. Challenge. J. R. Campbell, Nelson, B, C.:��� I hereby challenge you to run a 100 yard foot race for $100. J. A. Long. Court pf Arbitration. Messrs. Retallack, Sanders and Procunier ate the arbitrators selected to determine the value of about 6 acres of land taken by the railway for a way-right through the pre-emption of John Allen. During the past ten days the arbitrators have held various sittings during which several witnesses have been examined. The last adjournment waB to 4 p. m. tomorrow, Friday. Gold-Bearing Book. John Lynch and James Whit- taker are putting in most of their time prospecting and with good results. They have just had an assay made of some rock which they brought in from one of their properties on the Blue Ridge, near the the old Jardine camp. It contained 9 oz. of silver and $14.60 of gold to the ton. There is also about 8 per cent copper. They believe that with a little more development work they will have a rich gold and copper property. Tenders for the city hall will be called for next week. Uncle John and four others went out to the Dardanelles, Tuesday, It takes afull page each day to register the arrivals at the Slocan hotel.

Merchants have plenty of business, and hotel men are. kept busy waiting ,on their guests. Kaslo is getting more "solid on his feet" every day^, In'��� a short time we shall all be talking machine shops, foundries, sampling works, concentrators and smelters, The owners of the Evening Star, on north fork of Carpenter creek, have connected by trail with the main north fork trail. Thos. Trenary reachee his mining properties via this route.

The following resolution was passed by the Municipal Council of the City of KaBlo on Saturday, July 6th, 1896: That In consequence of there being no bricks In the town at present, and the fact that there will be an ample supply of home made bricks in a few days, be it resolved that the time specified In the Fire By-Law be extended for the compulsory erection of brick chimneys until the 15th day of August, 1890.

Another Steamer. Capt. Angus Campbell brought in the steamer Red Star from Okanagan lake on the Thursday's train. She is about 50 feet long and occupied two jars. Preparations were made to launch her immediately, when she will make the run to Robson, take the cars again for Nelson, and be ready for business on Kootenay lake. If the boat had a lighter draft, she would be just the thing for running from Revelstoke to Downie creek.��� Revelstoke Mail. Fishing is good, both in lake and river. "Half Irish and half Palouse" is given as the pedigree of a late ar: rival (per steamer) in town. Frank Alstrom, having purchased new equipments, has' re: opened his 4th st. restaurant. The mpmbers of the chain-gany are unanimous in their opinion that the way of the transgressor in Kaslo is hard. Steamer Ainsworth brought up 1,000 kegs of powder and a quantity of dynamite Tuesday night and unloaded near the mouth of the creek, The city council has made good exchange of lots, by which it secures the two valuable vacant lots at the corner of Front and Fourtli streets) on which the city hall will be erected. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Oliver have decided to move to Pilot Bay, B. C, about August 1st, where Mr. Oliver will take a position with the Pilot Bay Smelting Co. In a social and business way the removal of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver is a loss to %��� Spokane, and they carry with them the best wishes of many friends in this city.���Spokane Outburst.

July 4th appears to be a favorite birthday for newspapers, The fir^t number of the Northport News was issued July 4th, 1892. The first number of the Spokane Outburst was issued the same day. The first number of the Slocan Prospector was issued July 4, 1898; and the first number of the North- port Nonpariel was issued July 4, 1895. They All Want It. A new demand is setting in for copies of Kemp's write-up of the Slocan mines. In addition to the thousand copies taken by the provincial government, several other orders have been received this week. It is the proper document for Kaslo and Slocan people t<> send to anyone whom they wish to interest in the country. 20 copies for $1.00 at the Prospector office. CHURCH NOTES. Rev. Ackhurst, of the English church, preached in Jackson hall last Sunday. His appointment here is fortnightly. Next Sunday the Methodist minister, Rev. C. A. Procunier, will preach in Jackson hall. 11 a.m. and 7:30 p. m. Rev. McVicker of Nelson will occupy the pulpit in the Presbyterian church, for both morning and evening service, Sunday. Mr. McKeracher will preach from the Nelson pulpit the same day. Miss Stella Kane, the popular teacher of the Kaslo school, .is spending a portion of her vacation visiting with Mrs. Seaman, Mrs. McMorris and other friends in Nelson. A Big Bridge. Draughtsman Wilse is engaged on the specifications for the McGui- gan creek bridge. The bridge will- be 400 feet long and 120 feet high and will contain half & million feet of timbers. It will be a five deck bridge constructed of round timbers not less than 12 inches at the smallest end. It will be on a 20 degree curve, which for a narrow gauge classes with a 12 degree curve of a standard gauge. Staking by Moonlight. If the territory from Fourmile creek south proves to be as rich as it is believed to be, New Denver and Silverton may yet have several millionaires! Staking mineral claims has grown to be almost as much of a craze there as at Rossland. Several instances are reported where parties have recently been out staking claims by moonlight, there being only 19 hours bt the 24 daylight. THE '..riO.7SG.IDft BY W. D. PHATT. MAY SOT 1515 TOO LATE. The British Columbia Iron Works company has avowed its intention 1 to erect a factory in Kootenay and give employment to forty men. ��� For the past three weeks two representatives of the company have Ween passing forth and back and forth again through Kootenay, endeavoring to select the most suitable place for the. works, and it is rumored that they have selected Nelson. This rumor, though, may he entirely without foundation, and it may be that if the citizens of Kaslo would take an interest in ' the matter of securing this company to locate here sufficient inducements could be offered to pre- 'vail upon it to do so. By locating here it would be nearer the Slocan jinines, where most of the machinery made by it will be used. The completion of the railway would " give it excellent facilities for delivering machinery at the mines, and Kootenay lake affords a means " of reaching all other parts of the " district. We commend to the editors of the coast papers an article written by a coast editor���John P. Young, editor of the San Francisco Chronicle. The article in question covers nine pages of the Chronicle of June 30th. The subject treated is" "Bimetallism or Monometallism," Even the coast editors who gag at Coin's Financial School may take this article of Young's without experiencing a feeling of revulsion and they will feel all the better (and know more) after swallowing and digesting it. A cable line from Vancouver, B, C, to New Zealand, a distance of seven thousand miles, is the greatest enterprise that is now engaging the attention of the capitalists of the world. The scientists have done their part. That such a line can be laid and successfully operated is not doubted from a scientific point of view. But it requires money and lots of it���something like seven million dollars. Do the gold-hoarders want to unlock that much at present? Will they do it? If they do, the earth will be girdled by the electric current. A PLAGUE-SPOT AGITATES. The old, shameless, corrupt and , detested Tammany Society of New York City had the extremely bad , taste to hold a political celebration . on the 4th of July, a day on which ��� all the people of the States are wont to assemble as patriotic citi- . zens of a great nation and not as partisan members of political so- . defies. One Grover Cleveland, an ex- .hangman and present tool of arch ��� conspirators, and one H. A�� Herbert, an unworthy occupant of a ��� cabinet position, addressed ill- timed political letters to the meeting. _^__��_��� COL. KAKEH IN THE SLOCAN. "The Steamer Alberta called at 10 a. m.f and took me over to Kaslo, where I spent the Queen's Birthday, There were over a thousand people gathered there, and horse races, regatta and athletic sports were the order of the ���day, and through the well organized arrangements of the Mayor, Mr. Keen, and his council, all passed off to everybody's satisfaction. The next morning I left by the stage for Three ForkB, distant ���80 [25] miles. I much regretted that I was unable to visit Ains- irorth, but iny time was limited. "The following day I started early for the Slocan Star :mine, which is about five miles from Three Forks and two miles from Sandon [he must have walked!], which is to be the term- inusof the Kaslo & Slocan railway. A large amount of development has been done upon this mine in a systematic and businesslike manner. The vein is capped with specular iron and iron sul- phuret for about 100 feet, with spots of galena here and there. It is about eight feet in width on the surface and widens to twenty feet. The body of solid galena after the iron capping is passed is a sight to see, and reminds one of the Arabian nights, as it sparkles and glitters like a million jewels. Two thousand five hundred tons of ore has already been shipped and it assays very high in silver���up to 170 ounces. "Four tunnels have been run to strike the vein. The last struck the seam at 600 feet [length of tunnel, not depth; vertical depth is 435 feet], where it was even richer than in the higher tunnels. The vein runs through blue slate diagonally to the strata. Across the valley high up the mountain arid at the point where the Slocan Star seam shonld touch if it were prolonged, we find the Eureka mine, of the same general character as the Slocan Star and probably a continuation of it. A tramway is about to be built to connect the mine with the terminus of the Kaslo & Slocan railway, and there is little doubt that the Slocan Star will prove a noted mine in the mining history of the world. There are tens of thousands of tons of ore already in sight. "I returned to Three Forks that afternoon and walked down to the concentrator which has been built to treat the ores from the Idaho and Alamo mines, which are also extremely rich. The arrangement of the concentrator is very complete and it has a capacity for treating 100 tons of crude ore per day with a total of eight men. Six thousand tons of ore have already been taken out of the Idaho group, and 4,500 tons have been passed through the concentrator. A tramway between the mines and the concentrator wi}l be completed in July, when it will recommence work. The mines are tributary to the Nakusp railway." Books, Stationery and NEWS-DEALERS.

They are also greatly pleased at the weighty character of the signatures which ihey obtained to the recent memorial, showing that bimetallism had representative supporters among the bankers, including eight directors of the Bank of England, in addition to a number of prominent members of the industrial classes , ind labor organizations. The league is convinced that the "bankers anti-metallic memorial' was inspired by Sir William Vernon Harcourt, the former Chancellor of the Exchequer, being forced to support the bimetallic resolution in the House of Commons when he ,caw the possibility of having to ���a ppoint delegates to a conference. The league explains the absence ,of Mr. Balfour's signature by saying that he and Henry Chaplin ;thought it discourteous to sign a memorial addressed to the leader ,nf the House of Commons when jthey were leading his opponents. More Capital Needed. The cold facts appear to be that Itossland is the center of the first .'serious attempt to develop a por- I ion of a great mineral belt now well known and recognized as ex- lending for a hundred miles at least through the southern portion of It. C. That British Columbia "has not begun to be properly prospected" is the verdict of the men who have done most prospecting here, and there can be no doubt t hat even less capital so far has been expended in development Great Northern ...Rail-waY.���. The Snort Fast Scenic Route, T0 , than energy in prospecting. Slocan has been lucky in securing a large portion of the capital bo far spent. Rossland is having the next turn, and, like her predecessor she is proving daily how she can repay all the energy and money which has been spent upon her, but neither she nor the Slocan has a tithe of the capital required to do justice to their mineral deposits or to enable men to reap the harvests which they offer. It is still the day of small things in both camps and there is still an enormous amount to be done in each of them. The big men are . really hardly in yet. Too many of the buyers are still middle men; gentlemen who come in with a blast of trumpets to bond properties in the hope of selling them again to real capitalists who can work them. If they sell and sell to men who mean mining it is all right. Too often they only tie up properties and retard the development of the country.���C Phillips-Wolley. The B.C.

He is without doubt the most popular judge in British Columbia. About all of the first day was taken up in the hearing of the Wright vs, Giegerich case, which, after going over the books carefully, the judge decided in a manner highly satisfactory to defendant Giegerich. The second day was devoted to the hearing of a case entitled Atkins vs. Coy et al, and involving title to a mineral claim. A jury 'was called and it was for it to determine priority of location of the Rambler and Cariboo���the only point to determine in the case. .Testimony was very conflicting, and one was reminded of McCau- ley's description of the Court Bible as "greasy with perjury." The only amusing features of this term of Court was the propensity of the portly lawyer to make speeches while cross-examining witnesses, and of the slim lawyer to keep the witness' back to the jury while testifying to anything that might be damaging to . the said slim lawyer's side of the case. The jury returned a verdict in favor of defendants. The Cariboo is one of the Dardanelles group and all the partners in that group were present and watching the proceedings w^th exceptional interest. Many cases were laid over until . next term. Court adjourned to meet at Rossland on the 9th inst. Feeds Her Too Well. Three times the Clevelands have , wanted a boy. Three times the fates have given them a girl. Now, girls may be just as valuable, or "more valuable than boys, but when parents make up their minds that it should be a boy and it persists in being a girl, there is apt to bo a disappointment. This brings up the question of controlling the . sexes, a question too great to be more than touched upon in the brief space of a newspaper column and dismissed with the observation that the nearest scientists have .come to prescribing any effective means of controlling the sex has '. to do with the use of food, and is that where mothers are well fed on . nutritious and assimmilative food a majority of the offspring will be girls and where poorly fed or not ��� in physical condition to properly gather the fullest amount of j strength attainable from food the , offspring is most likely to be boys.

For the benefit of those who think that Bonner's Ferry has the queerest people in the'wotld, we quote the following from the Cceur d'Alene Press, which we tjiink entitles the Press man's town to the banner; "Edward Gillet was locked up by Constable Bechtel last Saturday for several hours for being engaged in the disreputable practice of 'peeping.' He was discovered under the sidewalk in front of Miller's drug store. This is his second offense, and the next time he will be dealt with more se- verely'."���-Kootenai Herald.
