Woodcock, Worden, Smith, Nichol and Bradshaw being present. Aid. Woodcock occupied tlie chair in the absence of Mayor York on the coast. A letter was received and rond from thc Royal Bank at Nelson.deal- ing with civic finances. On motion It was agreed to make the Royal Bank the bankers for the city, All cheques issued thereon to be signed by tho mayor and treasurer. Another letter was received from J. Mcli. Smith, of the treasury department, Victoria, relative to the further rebate due the city for liquor licenses. A cheque for fCOO was enclosed. Letter ordered acknowledged and fyled. D. McLeod wrote from Fernie.and Geo. Motosowa, from Sindon, relative to brick chimneys ordered put in their premises on Delaney avenue. The former wished the city every success in its career of progress end prosperity. The clerk was instructed to examine the chimneys on both buildings and the letters were *'vlcd. M. Bray, receiver of the city of Wellington, which was recently disincorporated, wrote quoting prices w tire apparatus for sale by that burg. Aid. Bradshaw said the city should take some steps towards getting an engine and hose and the offer made was a good one, An inspector of insurance was recently in and stated, that if the city would put in even •• limited system of waterworks for lighting lire, it would mean a reduction of 2 per cent iu the insurance. This* was a big thing to be consider ed. Letter laid over and the clerk ordered to write for a detailed state ment of price and terms of the lire apparatus offered for sale, and the condition of the same. The special committee on water works appointed at last meeting reported in favor of the extension ofthe Brandon sys'ein to the corner of Slo can street, as nskod for, the agreement to be valid for two years, or until such times as an adequate system has been installed by the city. Considerable discussion ensued on the subject, the idea expressed by a portion of thc council being, that there was a nigger in thc fence somewhere. On motion of Aid. Smith and Worden the report and action thereon was laid over for one week. Finance committee reported favorably on P, Swan's account for tire ball supplies. Bill ordered paid. W. H. Ferguson and others petitioned to havo the sidewalk on the west side of Main street, fronting the new Union hall, repaired at once. Ordered referred to the committee on sidewalks, to report at next meeting. Fina ice committee asked for a week's additional timo to report on the grade of streets hnd cost of sidewalk to the hospital. , A bill of 75c, for P.O. box rent, was presented and referred to finance committee. Under general business, Aid.Bradshaw brought up the question ofthe police magistrateship. lie would like to sec instructions given tbe city clerk to write the provincial secretary and ascertain if any recommendation had been mado by the local member on the subject. If not, when was the appointment likely to be mado. Nothing had been heard of tt since the council's net inn thereon quite four mouths ago and it was time something was being dono. The clerk was instructed to write in accordance with the above, giving date of passing previous resolution of recommendation, on motion of Aid. Bradshaw and Nichol. Aid. Bradshaw also wished to have the clerk write the finance department at Victoria, asking permission to have the city receive unpaid tuxes for 1901, so' that additional rebate may come tho more quickly to tho corporation. This was mado into a motion, secortded by Aid. Worden, and carried. Thc clerk presented a list of sup plies required in his department. Aid. Smith and Worden were cm- powered to purchase the supplies. Instructions were given the clerk to get tenders for 500 assessment notices and report at next meeting. Aid. Bradshaw thought the city wus paying too much for. police pro tectlon. He would liko to seo the civic offices combined and so. get more money for building sidewalks'. Thc police department was unproductive and was costing much money to operate. An acrimonious talk ensued, resulting in the matter being referred to the pollco commissioners, on mo Kind er Looks Suspicious. Saturday evening Supt. DuBois of the Arlington met with a big surprise. He was invited to partake of a big spread at the mine by the official staff—Messrs. Harrington, Cole man and Burchall—there also being present Geo. Henderson, T. McNeish, tion of Aid. Bradshaw and Nichol, with a recommendation for them to see if the city could not be policed at a less cost thin at present. Council then adjourned. Promising Section. One ofthe most promising sections of the country—that lying to the head ofthe first north fork of Lemon creek —will see some life during the winter. Three properties at least will be worked, the Hoodoo, Fourth of July and Duplex, while further down tlie Rose and Legal will continue development for some time vet. Indications are that something tangible will also eventuate at the Chapleau and Kilo. That particular section is studded with claims of more than or di nary promise. By values of gold are obtained on all the leads, in addition to the ordinary values in silver. There are' some mighty iron- cap propositions in that camp, which can-be turned into dividend-payers. Thc creek has been somewhat neg lected by capitalists, but tho properties will win out on their merits. The work to be prosecuted this winter will havo a beneficial effect. has an excellent showing of ore, of which a small quantity bas been shipped, giving paying returns. The lessees are convinced that they will make more than wages during the winter. _ 1 Inspected tbe Black Prince. John Harris, of Spokane, and C, Donahue, of Now Richmond, Wis., arrived in on Saturday, and went up to make a careful examination of the Black Prince. Monday thoy went on up to Four Mile nnd inspected the Fisher Maiden. Their trip into the country was with the view to investing considerable money in a dry ore proposition. Mr. Djnahuc was in the Slocan -in the early days and later on spent three years in ths Klondike. After an experience which cost him several thousand dollars, Mr. Donahue came to tho conclusion that the Klondike was afflicted with the worst set of official rascals that ever cursed any country. A Lulsor Address. Monday evening a large meeting of citizens was held in the Miners' Union hall, having been called up in a hurry, to listen to an address on Labor topics by W. J. Walker, ot the Freemen's Journal, Spokane. Mr. Walker spoke for two hours, dealing with the situation In- the Coeur d'Alencs, Northport, and Rossland, and describing the struggles of Labor to maintain their organizations. He gave much encouragement to the ~" De Canadaw Man. % Wen Royalty's comin' on Canadaw, We're mak' na de Iteet* hooray, We're wavin' dat flag ns nevair you saw An' de nis-e musiqiio, she is play; For son of de Keenc—he is vensit wit h'us An' we treat heem do well we can, An' feller wat don' be mnkin' beeg fuss Ditt'a not de Canadaw man.

After the feast of good things, Mr. DuBois was presented by the staff with a handsome onyx clock, with bronze trimmings; a pair of bronze candelabra, and a beautiful vase. A suitable reply was made by the recipient Those presents kind er look suspicious, especially when coupled with the fact that a fine residence has been built at the mine, nnd that the superintendent has taken a month's holidays. Opening l'p Another Vein. The Enterprise company has decided upon opening up the big vein on that property, which'par.illels the small vein on the west. Two drifts have been started on the lead just below tho No. 3 workings and sue cess is being met with. The vein is easily 12 feet wide and is more of a concentrating proposition, fair values being obtained on tho surface. It can bo traced almost from tho Iron Ilorsc up on to the Ohio on the summit, but no work has ever been done to prove its merit, Mining men predict big things of tho vein. workingmen and predicted ultimate victory in the existing struggles. His remarks were loudly applauded. Itepubllo Road. Several bids were received for tho building of tlio Republic road and they havo been sent to the head of thc company at Detroit, for tho contract to bo awarded. R. C.

She poured out the coffee and listened with a smile that was not very real while Alan told her of his farewell to the old boatman. At last he stretched out his bund to her across the table. "Sweetheart," he said, "yon are quite sad at going away Would you rather stay here?" She answered bim all in a hurry "Ob, no, Alan; no, no. 1 am all packed and ready. Don't suggest such a thing What should make you give me such a Lot's wife character us tbat ?

After all. I think yon are right There is no place like London We will stay at home a few days before we go on. What do you think?" "Just as you please I don't see why we ehonldn't" "Nor I, "said she, for the thought bad come to her that, if Edward Conway was hunting her down, tbere is no place in tbe world where yon can keep yourself hidden so easily as in London Nor would it be easy to find her, for she had not a single friend or acquaintance Wbo had known her at the time of Captain Conway's supposed death At the time of her second marriage she wonld have written to Mr. Lawson, to whom she had only a few weeks before repaid tbe last installment of the £100. ■t what pinching effort she alone knew, bnt he had just died, and with the other officials.of tbe Red River line she had no acquaintance So long as sbe did oot walk abroad there was but very little chance of ber stumbling against her pursuer. Here, on the contrary, it was almost impossible to keep out of tbe way of any one whom you did not want to sea Presently she would bave to drive three miles to the station, not. mercifully, along the road to Roathlyn, bnt in tbe opposite direction. Still, it was possible that he might have changed his mind, and in any case sbe would not feel absolutely secure until she was out of the neighborhood, until she was out of this desolation of woods and fields and Into the safe shelter of the great city. For one wild moment she wished with all ber heart she had told Alan when the news of Edward Conway's rescue first reached ber. But now that she had come face to face with the terrible and awful tragedy which would end. God alone knew how, the did not dare to speak. As she sot there, trying to force the egg and the delicate strips of bacon bit by bit down ber throat. sbe recalled the very first time that she had ever seen him—how he had refused with absolute scorn to inquire into ber character, how he bad told her that honesty was the dominant note of her life; that sbe had many times given herself away by being too honest, by not being able to tell, at tbe right moment, the harmless, necessary lie. And if I tell tbe truth I must needs confess that she was at this juncture afraid to tell him—afraid to own tbat abe had shared his life and love while tbe barrier of a great secret lay between them. She told ^erself tbat it wonld have been so easy to carry the news straight to him then that day when ber horrified eyes bad first fallen npon that announcement in tbe papers which was beaded, "Survivors of the Arikhama" It was not easy then; now it was almost impossible. She felt that she could not face the look of surprise In his eyes; she felt tbat if everything came out, and he ahould ask her to stay wltb bim, he could no longer ask It as a favor. So more and more she realized tbe Deed of keeping It all a dead secret, of hiding from Edward Conway as long as she could and of trusting to blind chance and Providence to free her-—to free her this time beyond all shadow of doubt. There were still totue trivial arrange* ments for Alan to make when they had finished breakfast, gratuities to be given, one or two little bills to be paid and the landlord's account to be settled in full. Sbe could hear him in the little room across the passage explaining to mine host tbat he had no donbt as to the honesty of the bill—it was no use bis going over tbe items, that he had not tbe least idea how many whiskies and sodas be had bad. and tlmt if he bad no objection he wonld prefer tn set tie tbe account without uuy further ar guments. Then she heard the luudlcrd protest that he wanted tbem to come back again, and therefore he was par ticularly anxious that Mr. Stacey should go thoroughly into the bill, so thut if there was anything to which he objected he might meet him at once "My friend." said Alan, "you will never make yonr fortune Here you have entertained ns to the best of your ability You bave satisfied both my wife and myself, and we are extremely obliged to you for all tbe trouble and pains that yon have been at to give ns a good time. 1 am quite satisfied tbat the bill is all right and that there is not a singlo item in it to which any reasonable man could raise any objection." Then abe beard the chink of money and. from the silence tbat followed, guesaed that.the landlord was employed in the eerions busim****- of receipting tbe bill She wondered how many more hotel bills would be made out. paid and receipted for their sojourn together She wondered if Edward Conwuy found her, and ahe decided to stay with Alan —if Alan did not wish her to go away Sbe wondered what people in London would say; how they would take it Sbe supposed that in tbat case Edward Conway wonld make it tbe business of his life to follow them round and ex •slain to everv one the exact position ia which they were placed. Would it be better to tell everybody? Would the story get into tbe papers? Would it be blazoned from one end of tbe world to the other that Alan Stacey's wife bad a story as romantic as any of the thrilling pages which bad come from his pen ? She bethought ber, in her distress and anxiety, of a silly game called "consequences," a game in which the last clause is, "And the world said.' Wbat would -the world say to them—to ber? Sbe did not know; she did not dare to think. Only she. felt resolved tbat so long as she conld keep the secret she wonld do so. "And you will come back again, sir?" she heard tbe boni face say. "Yes, I expect we shall come back again the next time I have got a spell of hard work on and want to get out of London. It is difficult to work in London," she heard Alan answer; "it is difficult to keep free of interruptions and so on. We bave enjoyed ourselves very mnch, I can assure you." Then she heard a heavy footfall entering the house. Her anxious, strained ears told her whose steps they were. Tbey passed her door to the sanded bar, and then sbe heard Edward Conway's voice saying: "You have a lady here that is passing under tbe name of Stacey. Which is her room ?" Then there was a rush across the passage, and Alan Stacey burst into the room and caught her in his amis. ','My poor child." he said, "I have been dreading this for weeks and weeks. The blow has fallen at last" And by some instinct Mary knew not only tbat he had known the truth all along, but that be bad been the first of the two to hear it CHAPTER XVI LET NO HAN POT AStTNDIB. There was only time for a hurried whieper between thent "You won't. desert me—you won't give me ever to bim ? sbe gasped. "Never," he answered; "never while I live I" Then tbe door was'pushed hurriedly open, and Edward Conway's blunt features and burly figure appeared before them. It was apparent to the meanest observation tbat tbe man was beside himself with passion. He stood jnst within the doorway, bis hands thrust deep down into his trousers pockets, eying first one and then the other with bis flinty eyes, and npon bis lips was a terrible sneer. "Well, Mrs. Conway," he began at last, "have yon no sort of welcome for me, yonr long lost husband, given np for lost years since, your little more than bridegroom ? Still silent ? Have you nothing to say?" Her lips moved, bnt no sound came from between them. "Still silent? No fond word of greeting? Too much astonished, eb? Yon made sure I was dead and gone, didn't you ? But Edward Conway is not got rid of so easily as tbat I Don't you think it! Edward Conway has been under for a good long time, and Edward Conway has got up again, and he bas come back again to his happy borne and his loving little wife tbat be left behind him."

"I never did," said Stacey. with deliberate insolence "Yon told-me that yon did not know anything about bim. and yon sent me— von sent me—yen sent me to Roathlyn I Yon told me tbat tbere was somebody —an artist or a scribbling chaj\ or somebody—who lived by his wits and who had a pretty woman with bim staying at Roathlyn Yon thought yon bad got rid of me. eh?

He put me on the right track. 'Why,' aaid he, 'that's the gentleman wbo Is living at the Powys Arms—bim I've heard tell is writing a storybook.' 8o I came back to find tbe gentleman who was wri t.iig a story book."

The Shocks of Exercise Lengthen Them and Keep Them Even. As a fact, says the author, our lower limbs are not usually both of exactly the same length, though tbey are so for all practical purposes. Tbe left Is usu-, ally the longer, though tbe gait is uot notably influenced by tbls fact. At birth the lower limbs are shorter than the upper, and their movements are rather of tbe prehensile type. "We are not born leggy like tbe foal or kangaroo, but we gradually achieve leggl- ness." Tbe bones Increase ln length, not so much by interstitial deposit as by addition to tbelr ends—tbat is, by progressive ossification of the layer of cartilage which Intervenes between the end of tbe shaft and tbe epiphysis. Ossification goes on till tbe component parts of tbe bone are all united by bony matter, and thus the stature of tbe Individual Is determined. If from Inflammation or Injury an epiphysis be damaged, one limb may be shorter tban tbe other, or Inflammatory stimulation may even Induce an Increased length In the bone affected. Tbe skeletons of tortoises, not being sub* Jected to sudden Jars, have no epiphyses at the ends of the long bones, whereas In the leaping frog tbe extremities of tbe humerus and femur long remain as separate epiphyses. The continuous concussions to which tbe ends ef the bones of the lower limbs are exposed wben a vigorous child Is excited by Its own natural spirit to run about are doubtless of great value In assisting the growth In length of tbe lower limbs, wblcb soon lose their Infantile character and become adapted for running and walking. By exposing the lower limbs to tbe same Influences and resistances during tbelr entire growth we manage to maintain them of tbe same length, aad gentle Jars upon the epiphyses at the Joints may be considered favorable to growth. A BIG WEDDING FEE. The Oleneron* Uses to Whieh Henry W*v« Beecher Pat It. In bis "Eccentricities of Genius" Major Pond says that often while traveling Henry Ward Beecber Improved bis time by having wbat be called "a general bousecleanlng" of bis pockets, which would get loaded up wltb letters and papers until tbey could bold no more, wben be would clear tbem out and destroy such papers as were worth- On one occasion Beecber happened to put bis hand in the watcb pocket of bts pantaloons and found tbere a little envelope wblcb be opened. Wben he saw Ita contents, be called Major Pond to sit beside blm and remarked: "You remember tbe evening 1 married C. P. Huntington. 1 was so much Interested la tbe subject tbat I forgot be banded me a little envelope as be went out of tbe door. I put It la tbe watch pocket of my pantaloons and never thought of it again until Just now, and here It Is, four 11,000 bills. Now," be said, "don't teU any one about It and we will bave a good time and make tome happiness .wltb this money. We will Just coC\stder tbat we found It" And so In a day or two Mr. Beecber went with Major Pond to look at a cargo of fine oriental rugs, many of wblcb be purchased and sent to different friends, and afterward be spent wbat remained of tbe money for coin silver lamps, unmounted gems and various pieces of brlc-a-brac, all of which be gave away until he bad used up tbe entire $4,000 "In making happiness among those whom he loved." After Mr. Beecber's death the major related to Mr. Huntington tbe Incident of tbls discovery of tbe four $1,000 bills, and the railway magnate observed: "I should never bave given tbem to blm. It was all wrong. I made a mlstaka Money never did blm any good." Tha sQasstlaas at Clarence. "Well. Clarence, wbat Is It?" asked tbe boy's papa. "I didn't aay anything, papa," replied Clarence.

The rail mill presents many pictures ibat appeal strongly to lovers ot the picturesque. Under ordinary circumstances the great strands of Iron, each half as long as a city block, slide back aud forth smoothly enough between the rolls that are stretching them and pressing them into the required shape jut a tiny obstacle may at any moment turn one of these cables of fire off the beaten track and twist It into a hope- less tangle or wind lt like a squirming snake around some unfortunate workman. When the rolling process bas been completed, the piece of Iron slides along to the great buzzsaws, which cut it up Into tbe 30 foot rails known to the railway traveler. Every time tbe whirring circular saw clips off one of these lengths, sparks radiate in every dlrec- ' tion, as though the biggest pyrotech- nlcal plnwbeel ever devised bad been suddenly set in motion. When the rail has been cooled and boles have been drilled In It It Is ready to start for any part of tbe world. The evolution of bars or beams or sheets from tbe big steel slabs is gained by tbe same general method of procedure. It Is tbe size and shape ot the grooves In tbe rolls wblcb determine the form to be* ultimately assumed by the steel In their clutckes.- "Well, papa, wbat are aU those big United States flags made of?" asked the boy. "Some of them are made of silk, Clarence, but by far tbe greater number are made of bunting" "And, papar "Well, ClarenceT" "Are tbe Utile flags made ot baby bunting?" Give BTerybodf a Chaaee.

Pale gums, tongue and eyelids, muscular weakness, inability for exertion, deficient appetite, impaired digestion, short breath, palpitation of the heart, attacks of vomiting, swooninir, hysteria and irregularities ol the feminine organs are among the unmistakable symptoms of anaemia or poor qualify of blood. Anzemic persons are frequently said to be going into a de- dine, and as a fact do usually contract consumption or some fatal constitutional disease if they neglect to restore normal vigor. Fresh air, sunlight, moderate exercise and the regular use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food after each meal will restore new vitality to the body and new color to the cheek of any anaemic person.

A LETTER COMES TO LIGHT WHICH SHOWS THE UNDOUBTED PERMANENCY OF CURES BY DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS. Mrs. Edward Patterson of Conboy- ville the Writer-IIer High Opinion of Dodd's Kidney Pills—Her Advice to Others. Conboyville, Ont., Sept. 23.—(Special)—Mrs. Edward Patterson of this town is ono of those who can testify to tho lasting nature of c-jres by Dodd's Kidney Pills, the great Canadian remedy for all affections of ths. Kidneys. Mrs. Edward Patterson, according to her own statement, is today in splendid health. Her rheumatism has loft her. and although it is ten years since then, it has never returned beyond a slight touch in cold weather, which a Dodd's Kidney Pill or two immediately drives away. This proves what lias always been claimed—that Hodd's Kidney pills cure permanently. Their effects are lasting—in fact they do not merely relieve—(they cure. Here is Mrs. Patterson's letter : "It is many years, perhaps ten or twelve, since 1 started taking Dodd's Kidney Pills, and then it was not for Rheumatism that I took them. I was feeling miserable and did not know what ailed me, aad while reading a paper I saw the testimony of some one who had been cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills, who had been feeling just as I was. I got a box ar.d found they helped me. I found nlso that my rheumatism was not neurly as bad, for I had sufiered for many years, especially in cold weather. I have used dozens of bottles of medicines and liniments, but It always returned until I used Dodd's Kidney: Pills nnd now I seldom have a touch of it. I occasionally get a box, perhaps two a year. I never hear anyone complain of Rheumatism but I advise them to try Dodd's Kidney Pills." How He Know*.

Watchful Mothers Can Ks*.*p Their Babies Healthy, l'osy-(.'heeked and Happy. Nothing in the world is such a comfort, nnd joy as a healthy, hearty rsssy-cheeked, happy baby. Bahie-s can be kept in perfect heiilth only by having at hand and administering when needed some purely vegetable, harmless remedy, nnd of all this class of medicines Baby's Own Tablets are conceded to be the best. For constipation, colic, diarrhoea, simple fevers, sour stomachs, teething babies, indigestion and sleeplessness, these tablets are a r.'ally won- ihrful cure. You can *{'ve them to the smallest baby without the slightest fear. Dissolved in water, they will be taken readily. They contain absolutely not a particle of opiate or other injurious drugs. Thoy ore small, sweet lozenges that any t-nby will take without ssbjection, n*ul their action is prompt and pleasant. They will tone up the whole system and make tho little one as hearty and free from infantile disorders as any mother could wish. Sirs. Halter Brown, Mllby, Que., suys: "I have never used any medicine for baby that did him so much good as Baby's Own Tablets. I would not be without them." This Is the verdict of all mothers who have us«l those tablets. They cost 25 cents a box. All druggists sell them or they may be secured by sending the price direct und tin* tablets will be forwarded prepaid. The Ur. Williams' Medicine Co., Iiept. T., Brockville, Ont.

It will Keep the Blood Rich, Red and Pure, Strengthen the Nerves and Prevent Decline. Mrs. Hiram Kinkier, the wife of a respected furmer in South l'elhnm township, Welland county, Onturio, says:—"It is with great, pleasure that I give this tribute to the health restoring virtues of Dr. Williams* Pink Pills. When my daughter, Lena, (now thirteen years of age) began the use of your medicine, a little over a year ago, she was in a most wretched condition. In fact we were seriously alarmed lest sho might not recover. Tho first symptoms were a feeling of langour and wenkn.'ss. gradually growing worse. She became pule, lost flesh, had little or no appetite and wus apparently going into a decline. Finally the troul.l.* became complicated with a persistent sore throat, which gave her grs'al difficulty in swullowing. I gave her several ndvertiFed medicines, but they did not boneli', her. Then she WU placed under tlit* caro of a doe- tor, who said her blood was poor and watery, and hor whole sysli'in badly run down. The doctor's treatment did not help her any and then, acting on tho advice of a neighbor, I began to givo her Dr. Williams' I'ink Pills. The confidence with which this medicine was urged upon us was not iiiisp!o.ivsl. as I soon noticed a distinct, improvement in my datights-r's condition. Tho use of the pills for a few weeks longer seemed lo completely restore her and trom (hat time she has been a cheerful, light- hearted girl, the very picture of health. I will always recommend Dr. Willlums' Pink Pills to other sun. r- ers, feeling sure they will prove quite as otllcacious as they did in my daughter's enso. Mothers with growing daughters will make no mistako if Oiey insist upon tho occnsionnl use of Dr. Williams' Ptnk Pills; they will help them to develop properly; wifl make their blood rich and pure and thus ward off disease and decline. The genu- Ino pills nro sold only in boxes bearing tho full name, "Dr. Williiuns' Pink Pills for Palo Peoplo" on the wrapper around each box.

KIlITUBIAL CROVPIMUS. Tbe knocker has been.working rdouble shift of late. The Boer,war is officially dead, but tin reality shows much life, the fighting of late being severe. With the weekly ore shipments .now running at 500 tons, there is no occasion for any grousing at the r81ocan. __________ Premier Dunsmuir is in trouble. -He didn't get a baronetcy from the Duke, his government is discredited, andjhis Extension coal mine bas met with a bad disaster- Sympathy is extended to the relatives of the many stricken families resulting from the latter. __________ After the result of the general elections in Nova Scotia, Wednesday, .whan only two Conservatives were , elected, the Liberals are more than . anxious to get party lines drawn in B.C., believing this province to be of i kindred mind to the land of blue (noses. If so, what's the use. Under general conditions it requires three tons of dry ore to flux one of wet Such being the cas%and the Slocan City division possessing the leading dry ore deposits of the province, there is a ready market for ..every pound of mineral produced in the camp, the demand, In fact, being far greater than the visible supply. As a result of smelter competition, freight and treatment charges have . been greatly reduced, the reductions t made amounting to a fair profit on .ordinary mining. Tbe attention of .investors is particularly drawn to .this fact. If you don't believe it, ,eome and see for yourself. Inquiries of a responsible nature are being made of the possibilities of , the camp with a view to establishing .a smelter here, being a direct outcome of tbe agitation started some . time ago looking to that end. Certain Information has been asked for and supplied on behalf of English .capital, and an agent of the firm is to arrive here shortly to size up the situation. The scheme in contemplation is one similar to that in use on .the Broken Hill mine, Australia, the primal factor being electricity, It Is .meeting with remarkable success .there and It is held would do the aame here. Ample water power is available for the cheap generation of electricity and the city has room to ■pare for a Bite. Thc movement on •foot is bona tide and if Slocan can make her pretensions good, a smelter will be established here beyond a , doubt. . The Boundary mines have shipped from January 1 to September 24 '264,400 tons of ore, at a valuation of $l,s5sS6,448. In the same time the Slocan mines have shipped 17,200 tons, worth in round figures, $1,893,- ,000. The former tonnage Is from gold-copper mines and tbo latter from ^despised silver propositions, Bonn ,dary mines have smelters and em ploy, directly and indirectly, thou ,sands of men. Slocan has no smelter and employs merely hundreds of men—yet compare the profits being made. Boundary requires expensive machinery and hoisting plants,while other expenditures are called for which are unknown Ip the Slocan. /.Some of the cleanest-and quickest '.money made in the province is being taken out of the silver mines of the .&locan. Boundary may have the •tonnage, but the leading white metal (camp will continue to hold tho values j-and yield the profits. DRILL POINTS. The fire limit bylaw is being very generally observed.
