GREENWOOD,       -        B.C.  GREENWOOD     -.     -     B. C.  Mines Examined and Reported ou.  THE   CITY   COUNCIL.  The reg-ular meeting- of the city council was held in the court house on Monday evening-with Mayor Wood in the  .chair, and Aldermen Galloway, Paton,  Barrett and Phalen present. A few  small bills were passed for payment,  and a telegram from the National Tube  company, stating- that they had sent a  searcher after the lost car of pipe was  filed.  Mr. Geo, R. Naden, secretary of the  board of school trustees, desired the  assistance of the council. He found it  necessary to dodg-e around corners in  order to avoid unfortunate school  creditors, and he was getting-tired of  the business. The-government claimed  a happy condition of bankruptcy, so  no assistance was coming from that  quarter. As a last resort he appealed  to the council. The council took pity  on the school trustees and voted $25 for  keeping the school house clean.  Dr. Schon applied for the position of  medical health officer. He told of his  experiences in E}ngland and the colonies. The board of health recommended  Dr. Schon's appointment; and the  council adopted the recommendation. ��  Aid. Phelan introduced the subject  of completing the Government street  cut. After a lengthy discussion, in  which Aid. Galloway urged that the  waterworks were a first consideration,  Treasurer Naden blandly asked where  the money was coming from. This  settled the matter, and the Government  street cut will remain half cut until  next spring-.  The 1899 municipal election by-law  was read a first time. It provides for  polling booths, returning officers, and  for qualifying those who neglected to  pay their taxes.  A   MIDNIGHT   RAID.  The hit me, hit me, good, or d���n, of  the festive blackjack was interrupted  on Friday night, when Chief of Police  Taylor and Night Watchman Pearse  walked into the Pioneer hotel and arrested eig-ht of the players, confiscated  $56 in cash and chips representing  probably $100. The police did not get  all the players. Three or four of them  succeeded in getting out a back way.  One fat gentleman, who had the satisfaction of seeing his five dollars disappear into the chief's pocket before he  had a chance to risk any of it on cards,  escaped through a back door. The  eight were marched to the jail and left  thereover night. On Saturday they  appeared before Police Magistrate  Hallett. The case was adjourned and  bail was accepted for each in the sum  of $50. On Monday the case again  came up. There was a formidable  array of legal talent for the defense,  Andrew Leamy, J. P. McLeod and A.  M. Whiteside being there to knock  Prosecuting Attorney Black's case into  ��MU_ftf___wt*y*____ria_  a cocked hat. They found, however,  that they-could have no opportunity of  enjoying a fight. Night Watchman  Pearse, the chief witness for the prosecution, resigned on Saturday and  neither he nor any of the other witnesses could be found on Monday. Mr.  Black asked for a week's adjournment,  which was granted. The bail nioney  was returned.  The strict moral theories of eastern  cities are of little practical value in a  mining- camp. Conditions as they  exist, must be dealt with. Any attempt  to force miners and prospectors to  cease the practice of risking money on  cards will prove a failure. The average miner does not see any harm in  the practice, and so long as he does not  he will continue to enjoy a quiet g-ame  of draw or Black-Jack. As far as the  good order of the town is concerned, no  great harm can arise from three or  four men playing- a quiet game. If  hotel men, however, turn their bar  rooms into gambling- joints and allow  professional gamblers to run games in  the back rooms of their houses, they  may expect visits from the police and  trouble for their houses. The professional gentleman who does nothing excepting to swindle the innocent at  cards, deserves consideration neither  from the hotel men nor the police.  A Large Hotel.  Mrs. J. Anderson of Brooklyn arrived in Greenwood this week and purchased three lots from Jas. Sutherland.  The lots are situated on the Sutherland addition, on the corner of Silver  and Dundee, streets. Mrs. Anderson  intends building a 60-room, three-story  . hotel. The lots give a frontage of 168  feet on Dundee street and 90 feet on  Silver street. The contract for the  hotel will be let immediately. It is to  be finished and in running order before  May 1st next year. The hotel will be  first-class in every respect, and will be  built accordingly. The estimated cost  is $15,000. Mrs. Anderson was in the  city a few weeks ago and decided to  open business here. Mr. Anderson is  proprietor of the Hotel Anderson at  Brooklyn.  To Build a Sawmill.  J. W. Stout of the sawmill firm of  Stout & McPherson, was in Greenwood this week. Messrs. Stout & McPherson have a large sawmill near.  Gladstone, where they are sawing  large quantities of lumber for the railway. The firm intend erecting another  mill on the North Fork, and the object  of Mr. Stout's visit was to secure some  timber limits which are held by Greenwood parties.  Mr. G. A. Henderson of the Bank of  Montreal returned to Vernon on Thursday. He decided not to open a branch  at Grand Forks.  1  m  71  I  III  isi  i  I  ���is f_  !'._  i M  ii<  f  m v>  THE   BOUNDARY   CREEK    TIMES,  THE   B. C   TO   BE  SOLD.  As was stated in The Times about  two months ag-o, the B. "C. mine in  Summit camp is likely to be, sold in  the near future. Neg-otiations looking-  towards the transfer of the mine from  the present owners to a large company  have been in progress for some time.  The property is now under option to  R. G. Edwards Eeckie of Rossland,  who represents the principals in the  Montreal Goldfields company. Mr.  I^eckie visited the B. C. a few weeks  ag-o. Mr. Alex. Dick; another Rossland mining engineer, also examined  the property. Messrs. Harrison and  Barchard, the managing owners of  the property, are at present in Rossland. Mr. J. 1$. I^eckie, a brother of  the Rossland engineer, was asked concerning the'reported sale. He stated  that he had no definite information.  All he knew was that a deal was being-  arranged.  The B. C. is in Summit camp, about  ten miles  from  Greenwood.    It  is one  of the best  developed properties in the  district.    Messrs.   Harrison   and   Barchard bohded.the  property in Aug-ust,  1897.  from  John  Keough  for $60,000.  Work  was  begun   at   once.    A  plant  consisting- of a 60-horsepdwer boiler, a  four-drill compressor and a small hoist  was secured.    A force  of  30 men was  kept continuously   at  work  for twelve  months.    A   shaft   was   sunk  for  165  feet.    At the 50-foot  level a  drift was  run along-  the  ledge,   there  being 400  feet   of   drifts  and  crosscuts  at   this  level.    The  next level   is at 150 feet,  where there are  300  feet  of  crosscuts  and  drifts.     The  ledge widened  materially.    It is 15  feet  wide at  the 50-  foot level and 70 feet  wide  at 150 feet.  The  ore averages  10   to  12 per  cent,  copper; 6 ounces silver  and $3 in gold.  The  shaft  was  started   in   solid   ore,  which continued  down   to  the  50-foot  level.    From there for 70 feet the ledge  takes a dip, but the  shaft  catches the  ore again at 150 feet, and continues to  the   bottom.      There   are    are    three  dumps.    The first dump contains 1,200  tons of hig-h-grade  picked  ore and the  second g-ood  shipping   ore,   while   the '  third   is  waste.    In  August, 1898, the  last payment on account of the $60,000  bond was made   and the   mine   closed  down.    Manager  Harrison  says there  are  20,000   tons  of  hig-h grade  ore in  sight.      When   the   railway  conies   a  little nearer, a large  plant will be purchased for the property.    The mine is  ready   to   maintain   continuous  shipments at anv time.  A New Sawmiil.  Messrs. Redgeld & Wilson of Water-  ville, Wash., are erecting- a large sawmill plant on Eholt creek, about one  and one-half miles above .Fisher's  sawmill. They have secured a timber  limit from Mr. Stack and others, and  expect to be in a position to cut lumber in about ten days.  The Voters' List  The municipal voters' list for 1899  has been completed by City Clerk  Taylor. It shows 112 names in the  North ward and 178 names in the South  ward, making a total of 290 names.  Last 3'ear's list showed a total of 143  names, or less than half of this Year's  list.  W. M. Eaw & Co. will open a branch  store at Camp McKinney next week  with Mr. Moody   in   charg-e.

McNicol, of  Midway, were in the city this week.  , A plant for  the King- Solomon mine  in Copper camp is expected shortly.  Twelve   men   are   at   work   on  the  ' Rathmullen group in Summit camp.  An hotel is to be erected at Eholt,  : Rendell & Co's new town in Summit  camp.  Dr. Oppenheimer has taken an office  in the Keoug-h block,. above the Bank  of B. N. A.  Dr. R. W.Jakes has recovered from  his recent illness and is now able to  resume his practice.  The Elkhorn brewery has received  its inland revenue license and will beg-in brewing- next week.  Charles Dunne is now in charg-e of  the Windsor hotel barber shop. Mr.  Dunne is a first-class  tonsorial   artist.  W. J. Snodgrass, manager of the  Snodgrass stage line, was in the city  this week. He drove out as far as  Bossburg.  A good fo,rce of men is now at work  on the Jewel mine in Eong Eake camp.  Mr. Gilbert Mahan is expected back  from Rossland next week.  The firemen are giving a ball in  Barrett's hall this (Friday) evening.  Porter's orchestra will furnish the  music.    The admission is free.  It is stated that Brooklyn has run its  course and that merchants are fast  leaving the town. It was never expected that it would become a permanent place.  There was an unconfirmed rumor  this week to the effect that the Big  Copper mine in Copper camp had been  bonded for $70,000. The Big Copper  has an enormous ledge of high-grade  ore. The property has not been worked  for years.  The police commissioners have made  arrangements with Mr. John McLaren  of Rossland to take charge of police  matters in Greenwood. Mr.McLaren  was chief of the Vancouver police  force some years ago. He is expected  in Greenwood early next week.  Since the article was written referring to the new sawmill to be erected  on Eholt creek by Waterville parties, a  lightning change was made. On Friday morning the plant was re-loaded  and started for Christina lake. Trouble  about the timber limit is given as the  reason for the removal.  Several real estate transfers were  reported this week. In addition to the  lots purchased by Mrs. Anderson, two  or three other Sutherland addition lots  changed hands. The lot adjoining  Robbins' livei^y stable -was also sold.  M. E. Frazee sold a choice residential  lot on.the Garland addition.  The article from the American Journal of Health in reference to the  Okanagan company's flour, should  convince bread consumers that this is  the healthiest bread in the market to-  da}r. The}' can eat . bread made from  the O K flour with an assurance that  they are consuming- nothing that will  be harmful to the system.  1^4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 4*3?  *  *  ������  Wholesale and  Retail  Dealers in  *  *  *  Fresh and Cured Meats  Fish and Oysters ��� ...> f  Live and Dressed Poultry  Meats  delivered  at  Mines free of charg-e.

Government Requires Information.
The provincial legislature opens on
January Sth. The g-overnment is preparing- the estimates and expects to
have evervthing- in readiness when
the house meets. No effort has so far
been made to draw the attention of
the g-overnment to the requirements of
the district. . It looks as it a season of
prosperity has made the people careless about their interests. If the prosperity is to continue, the people of
Greenwood must not g-et into a rut.
They must maintain their old-time activity and vig-or. There should be a
united effort made to promote the interests of the city and district.

Cascade City, the  wide-open town of  twenty saloons, is enjoying  the  usual  accompaniment in the shape of  shooting  scrapes.    On Tuesday night   the  night   watchman   ran   in   an   Italian.  The economy of the provincial government or the poverty of  the provincial  treasury has precluded  the  erection of  a jail at Cascade, so   the  prisoner was  kept in   an   ordinary   building.    Some  of   his   countrymen  considered  it   an  easy matter to rescue their compatriot.  They tackled the night watchman, but  he showed fight.    The Italians at once  concluded that  a police  officer in this  country  had  no   right to   take  harsh  measures  with  such   as  they,   and to  teach him a lesson, one of them opened  fire from a wicked looking revolver. A  thick skin and  a  stout  rib  saved the  officer.    One bullet struck the fifth rib  and glanced off.    The officer then took  a hand in   the   shooting.    One  Italian  left the city with  an ugly flesh wound,  a second was fatally wounded, a bullet  from the policeman's revolver, striking  him in the abdomen. The third Italian  -escaped   without   injury.     The  night  watchman's   injury    is    not    serious.  Officer   Dinsmore    is    at    present   in  Cascade. '  The Winnipeg Mine.  Duncan F.

SATURDAY,  DECEMBER 3, 1898.  THE   MUNICIPAL   CAMPAIGN.  There are two candidates in the field  for the mayoralty contest. Mr. Ralph  Smailes arid Mr. Thos. Hardy have  each announced their intention of, running for the office. Both are g-ood men  and either would make an excellent  chief magistrate. Mr. Smailes is the  manager for Rendell & Co. He is a  shrewd and careful business man. In  public matters he has but little to say,  but that little is well put and to the  point. With Mr. Smailes in the chair  we feel sure that municipal business  would not be carried on in an irregular  and haphazard fashion. Mr. Hardy  is a member of the Russell Hardware  company. He has always shown himself to be an enterprising- and public-  spirited citizen and has always taken  a keen interest in public affairs.  With these two candidates in the  field, the electors have some assurance  that Greenwood will not be without a  good mayor. A choice between the  two must be made, however. Unfortunately up to a short time ag-o but little  interest was taken in municipal affairs.  A number of citizens who were anxious  to secure the very best material in the  council went to Mr. Smailes and urged  him to run for mayor. He at last consented to do so. If we mistake not,  Mr. Hardy knew that Mr. Smailes Avas  being urged to run, and he offered no  objection. As far as Ave know, his announcement that he was in the maj'or-  alty contest Avas the first intimation  that he had an}" hankering after municipal honors. Those who urged Mr.  Smailes to stand for mayor���and they  are no small portion of the electors���  are going to do their utmost to elect  him.  In the approaching municipal contest there is no stirring question of  public policy to divide thee]ectors. All  the cit3'- wants is seven good men to  transact the city's business in a  business-like Avay. Mr. Hardy's candidature for the office of mayor means  the loss of one g-ood man to the city.  We would be pleased to see him retire  and run for alderman. If he is determined to be in the mayoralty contest,  there cannot be any objection to his  running for alderman as well, and in  this way his services Avill not be lost to  the city.  Mr. Smailes will, in our opinion, be  the next mayor of Greenwood. He is  the right man for the position. The  Times will use every effort towards  securing his election.  Sinking is being continued in the  Mother Lode shaft. The shaft is the  largest and best timbered in the district.

Beginning with the New Year, The  Boundary Creek Times will be published in regular newspaper form. The  present size is neat and convenient,  but rapidly increasing business makes  it absolutely necessary to enlarge the  paper. Advertisers are requested to  make arrangement for space before  the end of the month.  Railway Construction.  It is now almost certain that railway  construction will commence in the  vicinity of Greenwood before the end  of the year. The contractors are busy  grading up to the Summit or within  eisrht miles of Greenwood. Contracts  on this side of the summit will be let  in a very short time. It is reported  that the C. P. R. has come to the conclusion that the best policy is to build  and the question of subsidy may be  brought up afterwards.  Dr. Foster, the company's physician  at Cascade has received instructions to  move  to  Greenwood   in   a  very short  time.  Mr. Stout, who is g-etting out lumber  for the contractors, is getting- ready to  erect a sawmill, and others are making-  preparations for active construction on  this side.    ,  Express From Bossburg.  The International Express company,  under the management   of  J. A. Jackson, has   established   an   express   line  between   Bossburg    and  The company   will   carry  express.    For the present  team will leave Bossburg  dap   after   the   arrival   of   the  north  bound   train, and  reach Greenwood on  Greenwood,  nothing but  the express  every Tues-  Thursday morning. ��The line should  prove a great convenience, as express  is  often tied up  at Marcus   and Boss  burg-, because  the  stage  or   unable   to  lines are un-  hahdle   it.    P.  willing  Burns & Co. are the local agents for  the company, and any orders may be  left at the butcher shop.  Business Outlook.  Business men report the month of  November one of the best in the history of the town. Sales have been.  heavy and collections easy. The three  chartered banks are well pleased with  the volume of business during their  first month in Greenwood, and the  managers are confident that at no distant date there will be plenty of business here for all three. New stores  and new hotels are being opened. It  looks as if Greenwood had entered  upon a season of healthy and rapid  gi owth.       -  "Rossland, 1898."  Thanks to Mr. James Martin, M. P.  P., The Times has been presented  with a copy of " Rossland, 1898." The  publication, is -well printed and well  illustrated, and there is a mass of information concerning Rossland and  Trail Creek district. Typographically  the production is all rig-ht, but we are  strongly of the opinion that the work  could be done just as well and as  cheaply in Rossland, instead of sending it to Toronto. If the Rossland  board of trade has no confidence in the  Rossland printing- offices, it should  send its work to Greenwood. We would  guarantee just as good a job as the  Toronto office. The old saying that  a prophet is not without honor save in  his own country, has been exemplified  by those having charge of " Rossland, 1898."  THE   BANK   OF  Established in 1836.

JAMES   COOPER   MANUFACTURING   COM  Branch Office, ROSSLAND, B, G  MONTREAL, P. Q.  JAMES D/ SWORD, Manager,  PURE   FLOUR.  Sermons need not be preached when  it comes to warning- the public ag-ainst  inferior grades of flour. The thought-  fill and truly conscientious caterer who  selects food products for the family on  the one inviolable principle that purity  alone can possibly win her favor, will  indignantly reject the spurious brands  which the hygienic press collectively  condemns and' which are the most  deadly ag-ents of disease. The community has no more insidious foe than  impure or low grade flour. For on account of the very truth that we cannot  sit down at the family board without  ingesting flour in a greater or lesser  quantity, the corresponding- influence  upon our health cannot be overestimated. It will be either an influence  for evil or an influence for good. Nothing which enters the system, in no  matter how small a quantity, but has  its power of affecting the general result ; but when the principal constituents of our daily food lack the quality  they should possess, the magnitude of  the consequence goes without saying. ���  We infallibly suffer.  To obviate all such disastrous consequences and the sufferings they  thus  entail, the American Journal of Health  watches without intermission the  successive   introductions  of   the   market  brands  of  flour.      And it  also  urges  upon  the  consumer  the  use  of  those  whose established  excellence  is  sufficient safeguard against tae unverified  claims of other brands.    There is  also  another   consideration   which  obtains  its due weight with us : the  reliability  of the manufacturers.    We have found  each condition fulfilled to our satisfaction in " O.K. "  flour,   offered  by  the  Okanagan  Flour  Mills  Co.,  of  Armstrong, B.C., Canada.    This is a  truly  pure product, marketed b}' a firm which  enjoys   the  most  enviable reputation  for the production  of  only  first-class  goods.    The resources of our  analysis  were brought into  requisition   for  the  thorough testing of this flour,   and   an  exhibition   was   thereby   made   which  conclusively established the  great nutritive worth  which   is   claimed for  it  because of its  richness   in  gluten ; its  suitability for persons of weak digestive organs, owing to its possessing no  excess   of   starch,   its   consistent  uniformity of qualit}- and its eminent virtues as a  bread  maker.    It  would  be  impossible', we do not hesitate   to   say,  that  the   Okanagan   Flour  Mill   Company's " O.K." flour could   not  disappoint when used for  baking  purposes,  for it does not sour ; it is  uncommonly  light in   bread,   and  also   preserves   a  beautifully white color.  That da}r will be hailed with satisfaction and relief by the physician and  hygienist when the prevalence of stomach troubles arising from fermentation  caused D3r bad flour, and cases of dyspepsia arising from  the   same   source,  will be reduced. The coming of that  time will be perceptibly hastened by  the exclusive use of pure flour, for  which the hygienic press can give an  endorsement equal to that here bestowed upon " O.K. ���". of the Okanagan  Flour Mills company. Ivet the public  cease to deceive itself; the evils just  mentioned will continue to distress  humanity so long as want of discrimination in flour selection continues.  We have at stake the welfare of all our  readers, and they will prove to be their  own best friends by laying this lesson  to heart. The "O.K." flour of the  Okanagan Flour Mills Company is endorsed for their use in the plainest language we can employ.��� American  Journal of Health.
