Aa Outllae of the Operation* te be Car- llesl on by Charloa Dewpater and Hiss Aaaoctatee—Wagoa Road to tbe lte- publle to be Built nt Ouee. The protracted visit of Charles Dempster, of Rossland, and H. G. Van Tuji, of Detroit, to this place daring the week, means a great deal to the camp, moro so indeed than would appear on the surface. Together they represented a powerful group of Michigan capitalists, who hnve become (.duelled in the dry ore .belt iff till* division and are investing an unlimited quantity of money herein, mainly at the solicitation of Mr. Dempster. In doing this, Slocnn will become the headquarters of several new mining companies, whose respective operations will be wide, and which collectively will result in the employment of scores of men and the expenditure of many thousands of dollars. In fact, so favorably im pressed luve the-gentlemen- been with their inspections of several properties, thnt they enthusiastically predict success to their c' mpanies and r.ipi'1 growth tw Sloe, as a city. Mr. Van Tuyl, whose first visit it was to Kootenay, was quite captivated with the scenery around here, classing it as superior to anything he has seen on the continent. Of the mine ral resources of the country, he has seen and heard sullicient for him to think that he has lit on thc threshold of nature's richest storehouse. Of material interest to the city i the fact that the en**"'ruction of the wagon road to tha Republic, on Erin mount:'.in. will bu proceeded wilh at once. R. C. Campbell Jnh!'sto:i,consulting engineer of the respective companies, will have charge of the work. Concurrent with the bum* menoement of tl.c road, opcj.tiiii'n'* will be t***nnm**nccd on ti*.« lo-i-iiUic. New aid c-.umi'diinis buildings *.\ ill bs' erected, machinery installed, and 20 0* mere men cmpfoyul. Ship nieiit.' will follow as S'.'n!) us possible slid ever*, thing d-.ni* to tbor>*ogM.v exploit and demonstrate the riches ol that pruniisiho* pf*djpcrty. There are no less than six different veins <>>* posed on the ground, each with pa"* ore in sight, while there is onuugu mini ral already on the dumps to inakoa respcctablo shipment. The Republic has always been regarded ns ono of the leading properties in that section of tho camp and it will undoubtedly give hands une return**, Mr. Dempster and party inspected th-* group twice and ilicy realize the full value of their possession, which work will rapidly enhance. Two or three trips were made by the party to Twelve Mile creek, where Mr.Dem|sSter'sflSSiiciatishave Invested heavily. Tliey acquired Inst fall tin- Champion & Sapphire group and a companv has been formed to work it under the nnme of the Sapphire Gold Mining Co., ltd. Th.* group has one of the most re markable surfoce showings nf ore in the country, the chute having been stripped foi* close on to .!0J feet. It is ii dry ore and runs over 100 oz in silver, with I'uir values in sold. Other veins have since been proven by inspection to pass through the ground. In tlie course of a few weeks work will commence on the Sapphire, and tho company has instructed Mr. Johnston to spare ns. expense in development and to employ every hand the property will stand. Adjoining tlie Sapphire is the May, which hns also been secured by Mr. Dempster. There are three claims iu tho group and some excellent ore has been exposed on it. Last winter tho original owner, J. O'Connor, shipped five tons taken from a surface drift on the vein and the returns wero eminently satisfactory. Tlie lead is ft true fissure and the pay ore crops to the surface. A couple of contracts will bo let on the May at once,approximating 300 feet of work, which will give ft practical idea of what treasure lies beneath tho sur face. Tho party, while on Twelve 51 Uo. ulso paid a visit id the Happy Medium group, adjoining the Sapphire and owned by Fred Benson and Win, llinchlifl'o. The visitors were agreeably surprised at the oro in sight, as the property is one of which very littlo has boen spoken. The owners had been quietly developing the property all winter and in that time sunk a 45 foot shaft on tho vein, besides some drifting. Thev had also erected a cabin, blacksmith shop and ore house. Tho shaft is in ore all the way dowu and there aro several ear- loads of the high grade article ready to stope out. The property is one of tho pleasing surprises of the civek. lt. with the May and Sapphire, are nil being surveyed, so as tu have the title made secure and placed beyond litigation. Thc Slocan-UcpublicCo. has taken an office on Main street, adjoining A. York & Oo.'s, and it is being hand somely fixed up. Here will aiao be the headquarters of tho Sapphire Co., ns well as other subsidiary associations now in contemplation. H. Dempster will remain here in charge ofthe office, with Mr, Johnston as engineer of the mining operations. Chas. Dempster has removed his headquarteis hither from Rossland and will in future operate sniely from here. Mr. Dempster and associates have acquired three other properties here una inside of another 90 dajs three more will be secured. These latter are now under consideration, but it is not expedient just yet to say anything moro about any one ofthe six. Mr. Dempster lias gono back to Detroit and New York and will return hero in Julv, by which time all his plans will have matured and his several undertakings be in mil swing. The men interested in these various schemes arc men of probity, petition aud wealth, and are among thb best and leading financiers of Michigan. They arc paying cash for everything and so far, ai least, have lived up to their statements. That they moan well by the camp is certain, and they aver Slocan will be made one of the foremost towns in the country. As a hint to the future, it is not teo much te hope for the erection of a smeller here. The money is readv and all that is required is development ofthe properties owned by u_ syndicate. With the success of one undertaking will come others, so thc outlook is encouraging for the town and camp. BLACK PI'INCE AND TKAN3FKI*. Active Development to in* I'si-sheil on Hulls l'l'sspcrtloe. Sidney Norman, who arrived in here on Thursday, losl no time in getting to W'*rk on tlie Black Trine.' group, wlikdi heboiidran month ago for SCr>,000. Great difficulty has been ixperii'iis'i'il iu getting into the property, owing to the very late scasoii. At the prrseot lime there is ;;ix foot' uf snow eh the groiiad nnd supplies luivi* to be taken in on the men's bucks. Six men are employed at t|ie mine, present operationa being confined to i leaning up the several workings. These havo caved in pretty badly in places and it will take a month to put thimrs In dreonl shape. No more men will be added Just nsw. but early ii«*xt mouth the fume will be doubled. Tlie Prince has everything in it to make a big mine and success is guaranteed. On the Transfer, also nnd""r bond to Mr. Norman, active development will be in full swing next week by a fair sized force of men. Tlie company was obliged to suspend operations two months ago, owing to the inability lo get in supplies over the trail. Even now thc snow will prove bothersome. Every eff*rt will bo made to prove up the vein and cut the ore. chute shown above. Tho vein is believed to be that of the Arlington, having the same width, strike, and general characteristics. Thc Transfer and Black Prince are to lie worked steadily through the summer. CANADIAN IIKARD HIOJI. Editor Drill: Sir,—I noto "Canadian Answered" by J. A. Foley. I cmnot see any reason to mako nn extended reply,as the spirit in which I am interrogated is quito in lino with the facts I asserted--facts that uro tolfevidcnt and require no further proof. I agree with Mr Foley that, patriotism consists iu loyalty to home and country; and further, in being on the alert tu guard ngoiiibt all visions and invidious intrusion of elements that mav menace or disturb thc social, ccono* miu, or political conditions under which wo are working out our own destiny, which may safely be loft in the hands of our own people and our old established and recognized parties and system of government And 1 bog to say to Mr. Foley, with all candor, that any persons or parties suggesting or promoting any ;ido issues that may divert from the general welfare to tho class or personal interest only, are the real "psetido Canadians."

Questioned ns to his views on thc recent decision of the supreme court at Ottawa on tho Nn tive Silver fraction, lie stated it wns not to his liking, and that he purposed appealing tho ease nt once to the privy council in England. It is the highest court in the Empire and its decision will bo final. Hearing a Settlement, Word comes in from Spokane that the financial troubles ofthe Burlington Mining Co., owning thc Iron Horse, Ten Mile, are approaching a settlement, and that the property will be working again by July. The situation at thc Iron Horse is said to bo a disagreement between tho Spo- kaneand Pittsburg members of the corporation oyer a question of management and finance. This has been overcome, the debts are to be paid and development of the mine continue. rKOGRESSlVKf*)' MANIFKSTO. Blevcinent to Psiah Organization lo lSaeh Kiaiug.

Asiiilsisi- Slocnss CssUlsratlssli. Slocnn heard the news of tho general surrender of the Poors in South Africa along towartl** noon on Monday, nnd iho glad tidings spread rapidly. A general hustle was made to Haunt lings and bunting, and pro- pare to celebrate in right royal man ncr. Msyor York proclaimed a half holiday, requested the suspension of all business, nnd then ordered the School to closo. The hat wns passed around nnd in a short time a large amount of money was raised, and a programme of sports arranged, A general hurrah resulted and tho band assisted in tho jubilee. Tlio s-M'ts were held on Main street nnd wore carried through with zest, despite an interruption from the rnir.. Almost every youngster won n prize and later on all got in on a scramble for mils and fruit. As n windup to the celebration a huge bonfire was nr rangod on the drugstore corner nnd when set Off hearty cheers were raised for tho king, followed by tho singing of the national anthem. As fur Shiran's loyalty she has sent n dozen men to South Africa, and the celebration Monday intensified that feeling, the moro so because of thc spontaneity of the affair.

Of this amouiis, the Enterprise sent out its regular quota of 40 tons, nnd the romaining 90 tons was from tbe Arlington. The corrected returns from the letter's shipments to May 31 make a big increnie In their given total, which, including the present week's figures, is swelled to 1870 tons, They have three cars more ready to go out today, if the transportation Is available. For the entire division the total shipments aro 2474 tons, which is considerably in excess of tlio figures for the same period last year. The outlook for continued shipments is h!jo much brighter, while the amount, of new development going on in tho camp is-largely in cxccs3 of 1901. For 1900 tho exports from this division amounted to 2847 tons, made up from 10 properties. Last year the exports totalled C529 tons, from 14 properties.

Cruel u Is the ocean, I would rather trust myself aud her to tbe mercies of tbe bay of Ulscay at Its wildest tbsn to the tenderness of the crew wbo were to take charge of that Innocent aud Ignorant lady. CHAPTER IV. MOLLY AND I. T pleases me to recall the tall form of my father, bis bent shoulders, his wig, for tbe most part awry; hla round spectacles, bis thin face. In school he was a figure of fear. always terrible, wielding the rod of of flee With Justice rhadaraanthine and demanding, with that unrelenting alternative, things Impossible In grammar. In school hours ho wns a very Jupiter, a thundering Jupiter. Our school was sn ancient bail, with an ope* timber roof. In which hia vole* rolled and echoed backward and for- tfard. As to Molly, she bad the misfortune to lose ter father In infancy. He wu carried off. I believe, by smallpox. He wa* a shipowner and general merchant of tbe town and was commonly reputed to be" a man of considerable means. At Ha death be bequeathed the care of his widow nud hia child to bis old servant, Captalu John Crowle, who hod been In the .service of the house since he was apprenticed as a boy. He directed further that Captain Crowle should conduct the business for the child, who by Ids will was to Inherit tbe whole of bis fortune, whatever that might prove to be, on coming of age after subtracting certain settlements for bis widow. It was most fortunate for tbe child tbat her guardian was tbe most honest person In tbe world. He wu a bachelor: he was bound by ties of gratitude to the bouse which he had served; be had nothing to do and nothing to think about except the wel s'nreof tbe child. At 11) Molly was a flat*, tall girt aa strong us any man. her arms stout and muscular, like mine; ber face rosy and ruddy with tbe bloom of health, ber eyes blue and neither too large nor too small, but fearless: ber head and face large, her hair fair and blowing about ber bead wltb loose curls, her figure full, bet neck aa white as kuow. her hsnds large rather tban smsll. by reason of tbe row* Hit; snd th* handling of tbe ropes, and ny uo means white. Her features were regular snd straight ber moutb not too small, but to my eyea tbe most beautiful month In the world, tbe lips fall and alwaya ready for a emile, tbe teeth white and regular; In a word, to look at. as fine a woman—not of tbe delicate ninl dainty kind, but strong, tall and full of figure—as oue may wish for. As to her disposition, sbe wu tbe most tender, affectionate, sweet soul that could be Imagined. Sbe was always thinking of something to please those who loved ber. Sbe spared ber mother ninl worked for her guardian. Sbe wu always working at something. Sbe was always bappy. "She wu always singing. And never, until th* captain told ber, did sbe bave tbe leut suspicion that sbe was richer tban all ber friends and neighbors—nay. tban the whole town or Lynn, with Its mer chants and shippers and traders all together. I recall one day when Molly and 1 were children. It was In tbe month of l December In tbe afternoon and close upon sunset Tbe little maid was about 8. snd 1 was 10. We were together aa usual We bad been on tbe river, but It wns cold, oud so we came ashore and were walking hand In hand along the street they call Pudding lane, which leads from the Common Statb yard to the market place. In tbls lane tbere stands a sailors' tippling bouse, which Is, I dure say. In all respects sucb a house as sailors desire, provided snd furnished according to tbelr wants and wishes. As We passed, tbe place beiug already lit up wltb two or three candles ln sconces, tbe door being wide open and tbe mingled noise of fiddle, voices and feet announcing tbe asscm binge of company, Molly pulled me by tbe band and stopped to look In. Tbe scene wu what I bare already Indicated. The revelry of the evening hnd set in. Everybody was drinking. One was dsuclng. The fiddler was plnylng lustily. We ahould have looked on ror a minute oud left them. But one ot the tailors recognized Molly. Springing to hie feet he innde a respectful leg and •Mod the child. "Mates," he cried. " 'tis onr owner! Thc little lady owns be barky, What shall we do for her?" Then tbey nil sprang to their feet With a buzzu for the owner and another for the ship, and. If you will believe It. their rough fo'c's'le hands In half a minute had the child ou the table In a 'hull- like a r-uocu. She sat with great dignity, understanding In some way '.lmt these men were lu ber own service and that they designed no harm or affright to her, but only to do her honor. Therefore she was not lu any fear and smiled graciously. For my own part, 1 followed and stood at the table, thinking that perhaps these fellows were proposing soine piratical abduction uud resolving miracles of valor If necessary. Then they mode offerings. One man pulled a red silk handkerchief from his neck uud laid It In ber lap, and another lugged a box of sweetmeats from tils pocket. *.t came from Lisbon, but wns made, I believe, in Morocco by tho Moors. A third had a gold ring on his linger—everybody knows the cxtrnvn- gniiclcs of sailors—which he drew off and placed In her hand. Another offered n glass of punch. The little inn id did whut she had so often seen the captain do. She looked round ond snld, "Your good health, all tho company," and put ber lips to the glass, which she then returned. Aud another offered to dance, and tbe fiddler drew bis bow across the catgut. It Is a sound which inclines tbe heart to- beat and the feet to move whenever a sailor bears It "I have often seen you dance," said Molly. "Let the fiddler play, and you shall see me dance." I never thought she -wonld have had so mnch spirit, for, yon see, I had taught ber to dance the hornpipe. Every boy In a seaport town caa dance tbe hornpipe. We need to mak* music out ot a piece of tblu paper laid over a tortoise shell comb—It must be a comb of wide teeth, and none of them must he hroken-and with this Instead of a fiddle w* would dance In th* garden or In the parlor. Bnt to stand np before a wbole company of sailors! Who would have thought It? Bowever, she Jumped np and on the table performed ber dance with great seriousness and so gracefully that they were all enchanted. They stood around, their months open, a broad grin on every fee*. Tho women, neglected, huddled together In a corner and were quite silent When she had finished, she gathered up her gifts-thr silk handkerchief—It came from Calicut—tbe sweetmeats from Morocco, the gold ring from 1 know not where. "Put me down, If you please," sbe wid. Bo one of them gently lifted ber to the ground. "I thank yon all," ahe courtesled very prettily. "I wish yon good night and when yon aet ull again a good voyage." CHAPTER ▼. THS SPA. BNDBRS flocked Into tbe town. At the outset, though tbe pump- room wu full every morning and the gardens and th~ long room In the evening were well attended, the spa lacked animation. The mule pleased, the singers pleased, the colored lamps dangled In chains between tbe branches and pleased, yet the company wu dull Ther* was little noise of conversation and no mirth or laughter; tbe family groups were not broken np; the people looked at each other and walked round and round hi silence. After tbe first round or so, wben they had seen all the dresses, th* girls yawned and wanted to sit down. To me It wu amusing only to see the people ln their fine dresses marching round and ronnd while tbe music played, trailing their skirts on the floor, swinging their hoops and handling their fans; for the lack of young men talking to tbe clergy from tbe cathedrals and the colleges, and costing at each otber glances of envy If one was better dressed or of scorn wben one was worse dressed tban themselves. As for the men—"Jack," uid Captain Crowle, "I keep looking about me. I try the pumproom in the morning, the ordinary at dinner, tbe taverns after dinner. My lad, tbere la not one among tbem all who la fit to be mated with our Molly. Gentlemen, ore they'i I Ilk* not tbe manner of these gentlemen. They are mostly young, but drink hard already. Their faces are red and swollen at 25. What will tbey be at "IO? My girl shall marry none of them, nor shall sbe dance with tbem. Sbe shall stay at home." In fact during tbe first week or two after tbe opening of tbe spa Molly remained at borne and was not seen in tbe long room or In tbe gardens.

The severity of my trouble gradually lessened, und by the time 1 hud taken eight boxes 1 was again enjoying the best of health, despite my 60 years. 1 believe that Dr. Williams' Fink Pills saved my life, and would str mgly urge all sufferers to give thnn a trial, believing they will be of treat benefit."

Fellows of All Souls' who resign their living on ac- conn*, of murriago nro compelled to bequeath to the college a silver cup on which their name and inscription sftiinj; forth the cause of their leaving nre phu'.ed, nud with this Lord Salisbury wus compelled to comply. At the time of his election, however, the fellows of All Souls' Col- letre were engaged in erecting an elaborate and costly stone screen In thc Impel attached to their houso. The sculptor entrusted with this work a|t- parently thought that it would be a better idea to curhe real faces then invent them for thc Apostles, martyrs and saints plnccsl ou the screen.

A Quebec Gentleman Who Relates an Interesting Story of a Narrow ' Escape—Happy Deliverance Just ln tiie Nick of Time. Bristol, Que., May 19.-— (Special)- There are not many men or women alive today who have passed through such a terrible trial as Mr. B. Draper, of this place. Mr. Draper says : "Abcait four years ago I was taken ill with what 1 thought was Gravel. "I was suffering great pain, so I sent, for tho doctor; he gave me some medicine and said he would call again. "He came twice more and charged me fifteen dollars. I was a little better, but not at all well, and in a short time after I took another bad spell • This time I sent for another doctor, with about tlie same results, only I was getting weaker ill tlie time. "Then a man advised me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills, for be said they had cured his mother. *'f thought I would try them and I got a box and commenced to take them right away. "In just ome week nfter I had taken tho first dose, I passed a stone as large ns a bean, and in four days after i passed another about the size of a grain of barley. "This gave mo great relief and 1 commenced to feel better at once. •The improvement continued and I ga'.ned strength very rapidly until in a siiort time I was as well as ever. 'This is over four years ago, anil I have not had the slightest return of thc trouble since, so that I know now that my curo was an absolute and permanent one." Sometimes a man's bad luck is due to his reputation. Yon cannot ho happy v.hile yon hnre corns. '1 hen do nsit de.uy in tie ting a bottle ot Hollowi*, 'b l \ rn Cure.

"At least," said he. "1 never heard of fut oils' case where they did." And be proceeded to relate the following story, presumably in mipport of tils argument: "A man entered a country grocery, where a number of the villagers snt around on barrels and boxes, and asked If two wrongs ever made a right. The response was 'Never.' So I thought till recently." continued he, "when I met a stranger who asked me to change 0 live dollar bill for bim. I did so aud after his ih'parturc found the bill wns a counterfeit So I kept It till the other day and shoved lt ou a fellow greener than I." The listeners eveliiliuod that those were two wrongs certainly, but they didn't make a right. "Well." replied the man, "tbey made me all right" Harvest! as*.

Ofthe silver lead camps this has been particularly .true, as a deterioration in lead prices "bas been coincident with that of sil- •ver, while tho freight and treatment .charges on the ore have remained the ume. On tbe dry ore belt thc price of the white metal has not borne so heavily, as the increasing /demand for sllicious ores has resulted JLa a great reduction In treatment charges, amounting almost to 3 to 1 ,as compared witb tiie wet ores. Cost of mining also hus aver ged up a great deal less in thc mines in this section. Even were silver to recedc anetbar 10 points, there would still be a- safe margin for profit. As a rale, too, the silver values In the ,oree shipped are largely in favor of <£be dry ore belt.
