GREENWOOD, B.C., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1898, 76 No, 24, OOUNOIL MEETING. HE} council met Monday evening* at 8 o'clock, present; Mayor Wood and Aid. Parry, Galloway, Barrett, Kerr, Paton and Phelan. Minutes of previous meeting of council were read and on motion adopted. Communication received and filed notifying the council that City Treasurer Naden had taken oath of office. Aid. Barrett asked leave to introduce by-laws for the purpose of raising money .for waterworks and street improvements. In answer to question the city solicitor explained that two by-laws were necessary���one for street improvements and the other for waterworks���each to specify the amount to be expended., Considerable discussion here ensued as to the amount of money that would be required for waterworks improvements. Aid. Phelan did not think the members , of council had sufficient data before them and would require time to make an estimate of amount of money required for each by-law. Aid. Galloway informed council that he had received estimates of cost of pipe from several Spokane firms. He thought the most expensive would be the best and considered $10,000 would be the outside cost of the waterworks system. Moved by Aid. Barrett, seconded by Aid. Phelan, that a by-law to provide money for the building-of a waterworks system be read a first time. Carried. On motion of Aid. Barrett, seconded by Aid. Kerr, the waterworks by-law was read a second time. Moved by Aid. Barrett, seconded by Aid. Phelan, that by-law to provide money for street improvements be read a first time. Carried. Aid. Barrett, seconded by Aid. Galloway, that street improvement by-law be read a second time. Carried. It was suggested that as the Mayor was going to Vernon, he would get all the information he could as to the floating of debentures, and that a special meeting of the council be held previous to the de��)arture of the mayor. Aid. Galloway thought it would be advisable to take up the waterworks by-law clause by clause, leaving blanks to be filled in at final reading-. In this manner the by-law could be so forwarded that the final reading would simply be a matter of form. Aid. Phelan did not see the necessity of discussion until council could deal with the matter intelligently, and this could only be done after an estimate of the probable cost of system had been furnished members. The clerk then read the waterworks by-law. , Moved by Aid. Phelan, seconded by Aid. Parry, that a special meeting- of council be held on Wednesday next at 2 o'clock, and that Mr. Shaw be asked to make an estimate of probable cost of waterworks, and be present at council. Carried. It was also sugg-ested that *Mr. Gallowa}'- bring correspondence he had received in regard to pipe to special meeting-. Aid. Barrett suggested that; a city engineer be appointed and street levels be attended to at as early a date as possible. Moved by Aid. Galloway, seconded by Aid. Barrett, that clerk be instructed to write to D. Ross to get all information he could in regard to floating- of city loan. Carried. The -temporary loan note was then taken up and Ma3ror and finance committee instructed to attend to the matter. It wassug-gested by Aid. Phelan that city police make a monthly report to council, of arrests, convictions, crimes for which arrests were made, fines, bonds forfeited, etc., in the city. On motion council adjourned. A special meeting- of the council was held in Rendell & Co's, hall on Wednesda3'- afternoon at 2 o'clock, for the pur pose of considering by-laws for raising- money for waterworks and street improvement purposes. There were present, the Mayor and Aldermen Barrett, Galloway, Kerr, Phelan, Parry and Paton. Letters were read fromrcity clerks of Rossland and of Nelson regarding- disposal of debentures. A communication was read from C. -3D. Shaw, C.JE)., giving a rough estimate of cost of watermains and excavating for the waterworks system which amounted in all to $6,843. The estimates were based on fig-ures quoted for most expensive pipe. Aid. Galloway stating- that he thought the same quality of pipe could be procured at a much lower price. After considerable discussion it was decided to borrow $11,000 for waterworks and $14,000 for street ���improvements, a total of $25,000 at a rate of 6 per cent, per annum. On motion of Aid. Barrett and Aid. Phelan, the clerk was instructed to write Mr. Shaw, asking- him to meet the council at the next regular meeting and consult with them as to accepting- the position of city engineer. " ; ' Mayor Wood asked for leave of absence for one month. Moved by Aid. Galloway, seconded by Aid. Paton, that the Mayor be granted leave of absence for one month, and that Aid. Barrett be appointed acting- mayor. Carried. Council then adjourned. �����ft- 0& THE LAST OHANCE MINE. We make the following extracts from a very interesting article contributed by Mr. B. Jacobs, of Greenwood, to the News-Advertiser and the Advance: The Last Chance, in Skylark camp, is one of a number of mineral claims lying close to Greenwood that were located in 1893 at a time when Messrs. Atwood and Wake, two pioneer prospectors still resident in the district, wereactiveW eng-ag-ed in prospecting in the vicinity of what is now called Twin creek. The mine is now the property of the Boundary Creek Mining Co., a Spokane organization, of which Mr. Louis I. Ostroski, merchant, Greenwood, is the resident attorney. Its mining operations are carried on under the direction of Mr. MqGrath, a practical miner who has had many years' experience in both placer and lode mining-. The class of work being done in the main shaft of the Last Chance calls for commendation, for althougii there are several other shafts in the district sunk and timbered in a thoroughly workmanlike manner, they are not the rule. This shaft is vertical, 4x8J^ in the clear and divided into two 4-foot compartments. It is timbered all the wa}' down, substantially and well, and is certainly work that those who have executed .may well take pride in. B}'-and-b3''e, when the mining-industry shall have become well established in the Boundary Creek district, and all such work be subject to government official inspection, good timbering will be taken as a matter of course ; but at this go-as-you-please stag-e in the history of���as regards development���this comparatively new mining- district, it appears desirable to acknowledge such advances in the rig-ht direction as are being" made. The Last Chance is well supplied with excellent mining- timber and fuel, there being-an abundance growing- on the claim. It has plenty of water for ordinary purposes other than for power, and will also be advantageous^ situated in reg-ards to transportation, for the lineof railway', when constructed, must pass within about a mile. The "level of the valley along- which the line willrun is about 1,000 feet lower than the mine, so that this down grade will afford exceptional facilities for the economical conveyance of ore to the shipping point. Should the work of building- a railway into the district be soon actively undertaken, it is veiw probable the Boundary Creek Mining Companj' will in the coming- summer equip the Last Chance with a steam plant, so that its development may be more expeditiously proceeded with than is reasonably practicable under existing conditions. At present there are ten men on the pay-roll, but it is hoped that this number will ere long- have to be increased-and the work of development be pushed at a rate more in keeping- with the excellent prospects this very promising- property has.

THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES, PRESS OPINIONS. s fa It " As we anticipated last week the city council has wisely decided to abolish the obnoxious trade licenses which ������'were the cause of so much dissatisfaction last year. A good deal of hard feeling and bitter complaint will thus be smothered and we imagine that the city will not very much miss the extra revenue derived from this source. Any tax upon a man's enterprise or business activity is sure to call forth a protest, and the council made a good move when they amended the by-law which for so long lias been a subject of vexatious disputation."���Vernon News. ���'., ": ��� 'Mt can scarcely be thought that the Canadian government will have the hardihood to refuse a charter for Mr. Corbin's proposed line into the Boundary Creek country of southern British Columbia. Mr. Corbin asks nothing in the way of subsidy. He requires neither land nor money. He simply asks to be allowed to build his road and develop Canadian resources. ���This application would not be questioned were it not for the strong* influence of the Canadian Pacific in the affairs of the Dominion. The Canadian Pacific wants a monopoly of British Columbia traffic. It wants to take its time to build branch lines into the different sections. Meanwhile, it wrould be quite content to have the country bottled up. This side of the line that proposition would excite a whirlwind of public indignation. If the Can adian Pacific should undertake the construction of a line into eastern Washington, without aid or subsidy, and the American lines resisted, and tried to retard ethe growth of a section until they could be coaxed to build with land grants and subsidy, they would bring a hornet's swarm about their, ears. ', And the politician who answered the beck of the obstructing lines would become odious."���Spokesman-Review. "Will Receive Due Consideration."

Corbin's application for a charter to build into this district : Office, of the Minister of Railyvays ' and Canals, Ottawa. ) February 2nd, 1898.

The Grand Forks Miner is authority for the statement that there will probably be ������" another municipal election in that town in the future." No doubt of it, if all the inhabitants do not emigrate before the end of the year. With two electors Grand Forks can put up a very creditable mtmicipal campaign. The agreement between the Dominion g-overnment and Mackenzie & Mann for building- one hundred and forty miles of railway in the northern g"old region is the absorbing- topic in political circles. It all depends 011 which side of politics one is, whether the proposed charter is a steal or a great public g-ood. On whichever side of politics the reader may be, he must admit that the Liberals are doing wonders for the short time they have been in power, and are showing- themselves to be worthy successors of the Tuppers .so far as the building- up of monopolies is concerned. A question came up in the city council on Monday night which shows a peculiarity in the Municipal Act. Aid. Phelan offered a motion to the chair to the effect that police officers should make a monthly report to the council of arrests, convictions, etc., and was informed by the city solicitor that the city council had no authority to make such an order, as the commissioners had full control of the police department and the council could only sug-g-est that such report should be made. In other words, the city council, elected by the people, are subordinate to a board of commissioners, appointed by the provincial government, and whose salaries are paid out of the municipal treasury. It is certainly a very queer state of affairs, when the representatives of the people are compelled to pay the salaries of officials over whom they have no control and in whose appointment they have no say. An evil which should be remedied at the present session of the provincial leg-islature is the abandonment and relocation of claims. As the law is at present, a claim cair.be held by parties for years without dotn'g' assessment work, and a large number of properties are so held in this district. If the abandonment clause in the act were done awaA' with, persons holding- claims for speculative purposes would either have to do the assessment work or allow others equal chances in relocating when the ground became vacant. A considerable percentage of claims in this district are held from year to year without any work being done on them, and no expenditure of money except the cost of abandonment and recording-. A SITTING will be h of the County Court of Yale holden at Grand Forks on Monday, the 14th ��� day of March, 1898, At the hour of 11 o'clock iu the forenoon. S. R.

The people of the city were startled Thursday morning- when it became known that William James, better known as "Billy the Barber," had committed suicide. Deceased went to his room, at the .residence of Georg-e McKag-ue, Greenwood street, about 12 o'clock Wednesday night and went to bed. During- the night Mr. McKag-ue heard him g-et up and go into the kitchen, but as this was not an unusual occurrence, he paid no attention to it. After lig-hting the fire in the kitchen stove Thursday morning Mr. McKag-ue found the following note on the table, addressed to W. Nelson, of the Pioneer hotel, and dated Feb. 16: '.' " This is my last say. All that belongs to me at Greenwood at present time belongs to you. I am tired of this way of living. Do as you please with me, for there is no one cares, so good -bye." In another note, after enumerating- his belongings in the barber shop, he ended up by saying-: "I don't think I want to stay here any longer, I have no one in the world that cares for me, nor I for them, so don't waste any stamps in writing1." Dr. Foster of the hospital was at once notified, but when he arrived deceased must have been dead several ; hours.'.; "... ' ;.' ::~ "������ On Wednesday deceased bought and sig-ned for morphine at the Greenwood drugstore, claiming he wanted the, drug- for a hair mixture. The vial of morphine sulphate was found in his room with the label scraped off and about half of the contents gone. Coroner Jakes, who had been"absent at Rock Creek, arrived Thursday evening- and decided that a post 'mortem examination and inquest was iin-: necessar)r. Deceased was born in Greenfield, 111., and was 43 years of ag-e. The greater part of his life was spent in Missouri and Nebraska, where he was twice married and has a son and daughter living. He has been a resident of Greenwood City for about two years, carrying on the business of a barber. He had been ailing for years, at times suffering great pain, and had frequently said he would end his troubles by suicide. He had been in the habit of taking- morphine to relieve pain and produce sleep. The funeral took place at 1:30 Friday and was conducted by members of Court Boundary, No. 3576, I. O. F. Died in the Hospital. On Wednesday evening George Edwards, aged 55, a native of West Cornwall, England, died iu the Greenwood hospital of heart failure. The deceased had only been in the district about three months, coming from Fairview here last fall. He had worked in the Jewel in Long- Lake camp for about a month,, and last week was taken ill, and brought down to the hospital. His only relative in this country was a son, who was with him when he died/ Deceased leaves a wife and two children in "England to mourn his departure.' -;��� :��� -:. The remains were interred in Greenwood Friday at 1:30 o'clock. PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE. The fourth session of the present parliament of British Columbia commenced on the 10th inst., but up to the present little of public interest has been transacted.

The shaft on the Athelstan, Welling-- ton camp, is now down 55 feet, 30 of which is vertical and the remaining- 25 on an incline. The vein is a large one ���somewhere in the neighborhood of 12 feet���and is arsenical iron; assay values average $20 in gold to the ton. The claim is under bond from the owners, the Mack brothers, to Fred Oliver of Spokane for $15,000. At present three men are at work developing- the claim. The Athelstan lies near the Winnipeg mine, the Calumet lying- between the Winnipeg-and the Athelstan. It also lies near the Hecla, another well known claim in the camp. There is ver}r little doubt but that the bond will be taken up on this claim. Boundary' Creek citizens have done what seems like a most sensible and business-like thing in sending a special representative to Ottawa and another to Victoria to watch the progress of the railway bills. This proves the earnestness and the anxiety of the people of Boundary Creek district in this important matter. Would the feeling might spread throug-hout the province. ���Victoria Times.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1898. BOUNDARY CREEK M. & C. ASSOCIATION. The Boundary Creek Mining & Commercial Association met in Rendell & Co's. hall Wednesday evening-, President Hardy in the chair. '",. Minutes of previous meeting were read, amended and adopted. The hospital committee reported as follows : ���'��� Your committee appointed to consider the question of securing a governs ment appropriation for the Greenwood hospital, beg-to report that the secretary be instructed to forward a copy of the following letter to Donald Graham M.P.P., and the Hon. J. H.Turner. A. S. Black, R. Woods, D. Ross. 'M am directed by the Boundary Creek Mining- & Commercial Association to draw your attention to the fact that the Greenwood hospital has heretofore not received any assistance from the 'provincial g-overnment, and that in the opinion of the association it is an institution which deserves the same kind consideration as the other hospitals in the province. " The Greenwood hospital has done much g-ood in the district. For excellent medical attendance, for careful nursing, cleanliness and good sanitary arrangements, it is favorabfy known beyond the limits of Boundary Creek district. Dr. Jakes, the hospital physician, has never refused to care for the sick, be* they rich or poor, and the association begs to point out the injustice of saddling the care of the indg-ent sick upon an. individual. When any person living on Boundary Creek, Midway, Camp McKinney or points beyond, becomes ill, and he is unable to procure the necessar}' medical attendance and nursing at his home, he is straightway taken to the hospital. Iu the majority of cases he is without the necessary means to pay for his maintenance. The association hold that this class'is properly a charg-e upon the state, and provisions should be made in the estimates to reinburse the hospital for the care of the indigent sick. *' The hospital receives patients from the district between Christina lake and Keremeos, aud from the international boundary line to Penticton. The government should not allow those who have the inconvenient habit of g-etting sick or injured, when they have not the necessary money to pay for attendance, to become a charge upon the Greenwood hospital. ;' There is.another matter in connection with the hospital that requires the consideration of the government: To the south of the internatial boundary line is a mining- district where they* appear to have much bad whisky and no officers to maintain the peace. Shooting-scrapes are not uncommon, and 'the; wounded' are taken directiy to the Greenwood hospital. This class of patients are always without meads, and they gain admission to the hospital because the common instincts of. humanity forbid that they be left to to die at the hospital doors. Unless the g-overnment is prepared to make arrangements for their maintenaiice during their residence on this side of the line, the association would recommend that the provincial officers be instructed to refuse their admission into the province, unless a satisfactory guarantee,is given that the necessary money for their hospital arid medical attendance will be provided. "The association beg to point out that last year the Jubilee hospital of Victoria received $10,000 ; New Westr minster hospital, $4,000 : Nanamio hospital, $4,500; Nelson hospital, $3,000; Vernon hospital, $1,000 ; while the Greenwood hospital received nothing. '" The association also draws attention to the fact that the Sisters' hospital at Rossland was promised aid by the premier, and that the Greenwood hospital is entitled to similar consideration." On motion the report was accepted, the committee thanked and discharged. Mr. W. T. Smith had not fully completed his report in regard to the boundaries of mining- divisions. He gave an outline of report and promised to g-ive the association conclusions of committee in writing at next meeting. Mr. W. Nelson, for, railway fund committee, reported having- collected $583.50. ; There was still outstanding- $57.50, of which $50 would be at disposal os committee. * The Railway Fund committee, on motion received the thanks of the association. Mr. J. P. Harlan was unanimously elected to'fill the position of secretary made vacant, by the resignation of Mr. Jabobs. By request of the president Mayor Woods g-ave his views on the railway question. He was strongly in favor of the Robson-Penticton road, provided construction was commenced at Penticton at the same time as at Robson, as it was in the interests of the whole district that railway communication should be had between Penticton and Boundary Creek at as early a date as possible. If the road were constructed from Robson alone, it would be a couple of years before Boundary Creek would have ' railway ' communication, by the C. P. R. If the road were built from Penticton as well as Robson, trains would probably be running- before the end of the year. He was in favor of a charter to the Corbin road. He believed the provincial government would bind the C. P. R. to 'commence work at Penticton. He intended to ;overnmerit in respect of ross the West Fork of Kettle press the bridge river. Mr. W. Neh ,011 being- built, even was iu favor of" road if both ��� land grant and money bonus had to be given. What the district needed was railway communication this year and the bonus, question was a matter of very little moment. Moved by Mr. McFarland, seconded by Mr. McLvean, that Mayor Wood be appointed a delegate from this association to look after the railway interests of the district at Victoria and report from time to time to the association. Carried. ��� Mr. W.T. Smith offered;the suggestion that the president call a public meeting of citizens should , any thing- come up that would require an expression of opinion from the people of the district.

J%\: �� THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES, GREENWOOD AND DISTRICT. Joe Kelly left this week to work on the Enterprise in Long-lake camp. R. Buchter, of Kaslo, is in the city looking- for an opening- in the bakery business. A. B. Pater son, who has been work-' ing- in the Cariboo, Camp McKinney, for some time past, is in the city. The Greenwood Dramatic club held, a very successful rehearsal of " Turn Him Out "on Wednesday evening. G. L. Phillips, a prominent mine dealer of Rossland, is in the district looking- over claims with a view of investing-. W. G. McMynn, chief of the provin- .cial" police in this district, was in town Thursday and Friday in connection with the death of Wm. James. R. W. McFarlane, who has a bond on the'Snowslioe in Greenwood camp, returned to the city from Rossland and Spokane on Thursday evening-. Mrs. Peterson has opened a bakery and confectionery establishment in the building- formerly occupied by H. B. Munroe, opposite Fletcher's drug- store. Thos. Murphy, of the Enterprise, Long lake camp, came down from the mine Thursday and is an inmate of the hospital, suffering- from a severe cold. Miller & Law, of the Anaconda Mercantile Company, take a prominent position amongst our advertisers this week. Their notice will repay perusal. An apology is due Mr. C. W. H. San- sora for his name appearing- in another column as C. W. Swanson, architect. The name was overlooked in the^proof- reading-. This is the first case on record in which the intelJig-ent compositor was not to blame for a newspaper error. Some fine specimens of ore from the Josie claim in Summit camp, were brought down this week, and sent on to Messrs. Bennerman and Rickards, mining brokers of Midway, to be placed in their cabinet. One of the specimens showed native copper. The shaft on the Josie is now down about 80 feet. Freight Agent McDonald, of the C.P.R., spent severaldays in the city this week, making arrang-ements for the more speedy delivery of freig-ht to Boundary Creek points. The company have in considerations plans that will revolutionize the whole freig-ht business of the district, but as they are not yet complete Mr. McDonald is not at liberty to divulge them. They will be based, however, on the system recommended by The Times some few weeks ago,���that the C.P.R. take into their own hands the delivery of freig-ht between Penticton and Greenwood, having- a freight warehouse and resident ag-ent at Greenwood and possibly other points on the route. In the meantime the business men of the district are put to great inconvenience by the non-arrival of their g-oods, when most needed. REPUBLIC GROUP BONDED. The deal for the Republic group of claims in Smith's camp, it is reported, has gone throug-h. R. W. McFarlane, who has lately bonded a number of claims in British Columbia, is the purchaser. The principal claims in the group are the Non Such, Last Chance and Republic, the property of the Re public Mining* company. Althoug-h no particulars can be had from the parties interested, it is understood that the amount of the bond is $75,000, of which sum $5,000 is to be spent in development. Mr. W. T. Smith retains an interest in the group. Violin/ Banjo% Guitar :;.Sfi.lM^ (^ AT���>^> SMITH & McRAE'S, Books, Stationery, Wall Paper, Fancy Goods and Notions, GREENWOOD B.C.

THE''-BOUNDARY. CREEK TIMES. �����jn v'.if GREENWOOD AND DISTRICT. Floyd Vaughn, who has been laid up for the past week, is out again. E. Keig-htry and J. P. McLeod of Midway were in the city Tuesday. N. Diltz, deputy sheriff of Okanagan county, Wash., was in town Tuesday. E. H. Fletcher, postoffice inspector, paid an official visit to Greenwood and Anaconda this week. Eouis Bosshart, who spent the winter in California and Oregon, returned to Greenwood on Friday last. Doc Christie has struck a strong copper lead on the Nighting-ale. The ledge is about four feet wide. Geo. Rumberg-er is having the Aetna and Missing- L/ink in Greenwood camp surveved this week by J. A. Coryell, C.E.V '. " ,'.'���. E. C. Brown is doing development Work on the Marg-uerite in Deadwood camp. He is drifting-at a depth of 40 feet for the ledg-e. . The bar room of the International received a coat of hard finish plaster last week, which adds much to the appearance of the room. Oh the Minnehaha claim in Camp McKinney, in drifting at the 200-foot level, a strong lead was tapped, canning- an average assay value of $57 in trold to the ton. On the Waterloo claim, a west extension of the Cariboo in Camp McKinney, a very rich lead���supposed to be the same as that on Cariboo���has been struck at a depth "of 50 feet. Geo. Rumberger, Joe Ta.ylor, P. Hoolahan and R. M. McEntire, of Greenwood camp, and A. Connors, of Summit camp, spent Tuesday and Wednesday in town on mining business. R. Donagan has been working lately on the Rover, a claim between Boundary'' Falls and Anaconda on Boundary creek. The work shows a quartz ledge of about 10 feet in width, and assays from $4 to $19 in gold. J. A. Corj'ell, C.E., is surveying the Monte Carlo, Monte Christo and Gilt Edge claims in Greenwood camp. The claims lie north of the Stemwinder and Montezuma, and have been bonded by the syndicate represented by J. E. - Boss. A. K. Stuart, Inspector of inland revenue for this district, and for the past two years ag-ent of the' Midway Company, moved from 'Midway to Greenwood on Monday Inst. Mr. Stuart was one of the original publishers of the Midway^ Advance. C. W. Swanson, architect, is preparing plans for an addition to the Pioneer hotel. The improvements will consist of a building-25 by 75 feet, three stories and a basement. In all there will be 50 rooms, exclusive of barber shop, bath rooms and laundry in the basement. The work on the Norfolk in Central camp, under the superintendence of Jas. Atwood, is showing- up well. Two shcifts have been s hik. o.-c 41 and the other 37 fee , witn adrift of 2.1 feet. It is bel eved th t the No 7 ledge has been stru -k on th:s c!'-:m. Alex Wallace is doing development work on the Rob R03'' aa ad ov u^ <.:i....im, on winch they also cl tim toh.tve the I<jo. 7 ledg-e. As Messrs. Atwood and Wallace are not e-iven 10 overestimate the value of claims, and are both men of large ex perience in prospecting-, it is reasonable to believe that the No. 7 lead has been struck on both claims. Among the companies recently reg-istered in London are : The B. C. and Northwest Territories Exploration Syndicate, LYtd., capital'.'����� 30,00,0 in ��\ shares, to acquire properties situated near Greenwood ; and ,The Rossland arid Boundary Creek Syndicate, IVtd., capital ^30,000, in ^"1 shares." Chas. Gire, consulting engineer for the French syndicate operating in Central camp, has been in town for the past week. His company are confining- their work principally tot the St, Maurice, on which claim a large amount of development work has already been done, aggreg-ating- several hundred feet in tunnels and shafts. D. Henderson, foreman of the Bruce on Ingram mountain, was in the city on.Sunday.'. The tunnel on the Bruce is now in 96 feet and it is expected that before another hundred feet is run the ledg-e will be tapped. Some of the finest specimens of peacock copper found in the district has been taken from the Bruce. The "object of the tunnel is to tap the ledge at a depth of about 150 feet. The announcement is made this week of the dissolution of partnership existing- between Messrs. Miller and Law, general 'merchants, Anaconda, to take effect on the 1st of March. Mr. Miller retires from the ��� firm, and Mr. Law will continue the business. Mr. Law. will move the stock �� to the Barrett block in this city as soon as the building-is ready for occupation, and carry on the business of general merchandise here. v Parker's stage from Grand Forks arrived in Greenwood a half an hour ahead of time Tuesday, Mr. Parker arriving- on schedule time. The differ- ence in; time of arrival of stage and driver was caused by the breaking of a roug-h lock. The lock broke and the driver got out to fix it when the team started down the hill alone and were caught opposite the Pioneer hotel b}r T. McDonnell. No damag-e was done. Chief Nelson, of the fire brigade, requests people borrowing ladders belonging- to the city, without his knowledge, to return them as soon as they have no farther use for the ladders. In case of fire, it is necessar3r that all the appliances belonging to the brigade should be where members can place their hands on them. So it is hoped citizens will see the necessity of constructing ladders for private purposes and leaving those belonging- : to the brigade where they properly belong;. Grand Forks appears never to be safely out of one excitement until it has another to replace it. .'At.'present the principal cause of trouble is the Presbyterian minister at Grand Prairie. The reverend g-entleman seemingly takes'a practical ' view of life, and sees no harm in dancing and card playing- as social amusements. This does not suit members and adherents of his church and charg-es have been sent to Dr. Robertson, superintendent of missions, to have the pastor removed. The charg-es are accompanied by a numerously signed petition. From the names of the signers to the petition, it might safely be presumed-that-a large number of them would not seriously object to card playing or dancing-as social amusements, even for ter of the .gospel. a rniuis- .: Assessment Act and Provincial Revenue Tax Act. 1'^ Rock Creek Division of Yale District.

McKay Ingrim. is baling hay on his ranch, to better facilitate the hauling of it to Greenwood and other points. It is rumored that Mrs. Burbank intends to return to Midway to take up the business of dressmaking- here. Several sleighing- parties from Greenwood have been here lately. The}r all seem to enjoy the ride to the metropolis of the Kettle river, as testified by their cheering- on leaving-.

The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907).
