GREENWOOD CITY, B,G, SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 1897. No. 20. THE BOUNDARY CREEK A\. & A\. CS. ^i'jp^HB EIGHT properties���now nine since a fractional JL claim adjoining- the O.B. was located last week��� owned by the Boundary Creek Mining- and Milling- Company are situated, as shown in our illustration, on the hills overlooking- the town of Greenwood. All the claims were staked by Mr. D. A. Holbrook, the Company's mariag-er, at different times extending- over a period of five years, the D. A. being- first discovered in November of '92. Few men are better acquinted with the topography, the claims and prospects of the district than Mr. Holbrook, and he has put this knowledg-e to g-enerous use in the interests of the camp, by, on several occasions, volunteering his services as guide to strang-ers gratuitously. For instance, He was the hill companion of Mr. S. S. Fowler, the noted mining engin- hood, able to do so, has taken shares, and that many of the miners, men who can always obtain employment at the full current rate of wages, are working- on the Company's claims, accepting- stock at the present selling price of 10c. in preference to monetary payment. No mining- syndicate with interests on Boundary Creek are doing- or have done more for the g-ood of the district than the Boundary Creek M. & M. Co. One half of the stock has been put in the treasury for development purposes, and investors may thus know that if there is anything- in the ground it will not be long- ere their money returns to them in the form of dividends. It is hoped that sufficient ore will shortly be on the dumps to warrant shipment for treatment. The properties of the Company consist of eig-ht claims lying- in a group and named respectively, " The Fred.D.," ��'S. H. B.," "Big- L,edge,"D. A.,"'" O. B.," " S. F." eer, for several weeks, and also accompanied Mr. W. L,. Austin, Ph. D., the eminent authority on pyritic smelting-, and Mr. A. P. Mills, M.E., of Denver, Colorado, when those g-entleriien visited the district in the capacity of experts. Mr. Holbrook's mining- experience dates from 1872, in which year he owned and worked placer ground in the famous Swark country, Washington. In the spring of '92 he left Seattle for Boundary Creek, and was the first man to drive in a wag-on over the then scarcely perceptible trail across the summit to Boundary Falls. He shared all the hardships and privations that fell to the lot of early-timers on the Creek ; helping to cut trails and open up the country with the best. Shortly after Greenwood had been surveyed as a townsite, Mr. Holbrook entered into partnership with Mr. C. W. H. Sansom, whose name is familiar in most Canadian cities, and opened a mining brokerage office on Government Street. The Company was incorporated last October, and men were at once put to developing- the properties. The best proof of the high estimation in which the Company is locally held is the fact that every resident in the neighbor- " G. A. R.,"jand "J. A. C." The claims are admirably situated, inasmuch as they follow the main lead or vein, with other well defined veins running-parallel, which greatly adds to the intrinsic value of the several properties, they being- all full claims, namely, 1,500 feet by 1,500 feet in size, with the exception of one, thus g-iyhig- a surf ace area of something- like 320 acres. Some idea, therefore, may be formed of the vast mineral deposits underneath, since it is fully shown by the exposed ledges, the main ledge running the full length of the properties. Ikying- as they do on a steep sloping hill, the properties offer unusally g-ood facilities for drainage and rapid, economical development by mainworking tunnels driven in from the base of the hill. On the "D. A." as shown by the plan, are two shafts, one 20 feet deep and one 12 feet deep, and a cross-cut 25 feet long- by 12 feet deep, from which ore was shipped to the Smelter at Everett and gave a return of $440.69 for 8,653 lbs., after paying- all freight charges, railway and smelter, showing a clear profit of $110 per ton. The " G. A. R." has a 20-foot shaft sunk on a 2-foot vein, THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES. heavily mineralized with an intimate mixture of iron and copper pyrites, galena, blende and silver glance. The finest pieces of silver wire found in- Boundary Creek were taken from -this. shaft. Average assays from different places across the vein gave $8.00 gold, 50 ozs. silver ; also $8.00 gold and 150 ozs. silver ; and one, the latest return��� $15.05 gold and 196 4-5 ozs. silver per ton. On the " Bigkedge" is a 10-foot quartz vein, mineralized with iron pyrites. This vein has been opened up by cross-cuts on the surface for 500 feet. A narrower vein has been opened up, being one foot- wide, carrying considerable copper pyrites, and runs into the liiain ledge as a spur. Average assays gave $33 gold and 1 1-10 ozs. silver, and $49.35 gold, 17>�� ozs. silver, 2 per ct. copper. ^ The " O. B." has two distinct veins : one 25-foot wide which, from.its strike and general character would seem to be the same vein as that on the Big Ivedge, although sufficient has not been done to make this conclusive. The second vein has at present a width of nearly three feet. . Assays have shown values in gold from $4.00 to $170.53, while a conservative . sampling by Mr. S. S. Fowler, M.K., gave $20 in gold. On the "D. A.." is a vein about, 20 inches wide, with a pay-streak of 4 to 12 inches ; from this the 8,653 lbs. of ore was shipped to the smelter, giving $103.i5 gold per ton, silver 74 7-10 ozs., and 2 per cent. lead. On the same property is a larger vein (quartz) car- ryinggalena and pyrites, on which no work has been done. c On the "S. H. B." are two converg- . ing veins of copper and iron pyrites, oh which work is now being done. An , average assay gave, gold . $1.50, silver 16^ ozs., copper 11.96 per cent., or $40.44 for ail values. The " Fred. D." was located in December, 1895, more as ground for a basis for mining operations for the other claims than for its present value, although there is little doubt that the large vein on the O.B. runs through it. There is a small vein of g\alena on this claim. The " S. F." lies'between the G. A.R. and D.A., in the direction of the strike of the G.A.R. vein. This location has been made on a vein of pyrrhotite. The" J. A. C." has a large iron-capping running through it from the Anaconda, at a depth of a few feet on the latter claim, Thecore carries a considerable percentage of copper, and $10 in gold. The claims are on the eastern slope of the ransre of mountains that run parallel with Boundary Creek and northerly, it being the only feasible pass for the contemplated railways that are seeking charters at the present time from the Government, and it is openly stated that one of these systems will be in hereby the end of 1897. Therefore transportation will be an accomplished fact within that time, thus giving the company almost twice the returns that they got in the instance quoted in another paragraph. The facilities for putting in the necessary side tracks for the hauling out of ore are beyond question admirable in every -vvay, and the natural situation1 of the claims having down.grade towards the track parallel with it and only a short distance is such that the cost will be comparatively small. It.may be safely said that it will not be long before a smelter is put up. in this locality, in which, case the company would reap "a much larger sum for their ore by saving the freight, etc., and ultimately become one of. the best paying investments in the country. The ore produced from the " D. A." claim is galena and copper sulphides, carrying, as shown by assays, well in gold and silver, with a good percentage of copper. The fact that ore has been shipped and gave such splendid returns is a proof that the same thing could be done to-day, but that the company wish to develop the other properties, and by so doing make the company oae of the best paying concerns in operation. The company have a force of men at work developing the several properties, and as soon as the necessary buildings are completed more men will be put to work.- The company is registered under the Companies Act, 1890; and amending Acts, in the office of the Registrar in Victoria, B.C., for 1,500,000 shares at $1.00, non-assessable ; 70.0,000 shares are in the treasuiy for development - purposes only. Unlike the majority of lately launched mining companies, the Boundary Creek M. & M. Co. before placing its stock on the.market acquir- the promising properties above described. The Times has no hesitation in recommending investment in this company's stock to the public. Notice of Application for Private Bill.

The tunnel on the Big- Ledg-e was, at the end of last week, in 40 feet; progress being- made at the rate of about a foot a day. The Victoria Board of Trade have passed a resolution to memorialise the Government to take measures to prevent "wildcatting" of mines. The Boundary Gold Mining Co. have put a force of men to work on their claim, which is in the same locality as the Washington, to the south of White's camp on the Reservation. Word has been received from Mr. C. H. Brown, manager of the Coolgardie Mining- Company, that he has received instructions to continue work on the Clifton, in Copper camp; Mr. Brown will return at once from Spokane. The Combination shaft was down 55 feet on Monday. The rock which until recently was extremely hard has altogether changed in character, and'a body of iron and copper sulphides has been struck running- with the pay- streak. The foot-wall also which for- , merly dipped at an angle of 45 degrees is now going down perpendicularly. Drifting- on the ledge has been started. Some very fine ore was brought down from.' the Adirondack, in Kimberly camp, on Monday. This claim is bonded to Mr. W. T. Thompson for $7,500, upon the understanding that $2,500 is expended in development. When Mr. Thompson first saw the property, little if any wor& had been done to expose the ore-body, but the surface indications were sufficiently promising to warrant the comparatively large s_im named in the bond being- offered. A shaft started on the ledg-e of the Adirondack some three weeks, ago is now down 15 feet, and while at this depth the ore has not come in "solid" the ore struck shows well in azurite and copper pyrites, and* in some specimens native copper may be seen, On the hanging- wall there is about 18 inches of oxidised quartz which may be quite easily shovelled out. The width of the vein as so far determined is 12 feet. Mr. W. ��. Medill writes from Nanai- mo that he expects to return to' Greenwood in March, in g-ood time for the building- boom which . is anticipated in early spring. A daug-hter of Mr. Me- dill's will also locate here and open a millinery and dress-making- establishment on Copper street. A store and residence will be erected adjoining W. B. Paton's. The final step towards opening an Oddfellows' lodge on Boundary Creek was taken,last week, when the following- made formal application as charter members to the Grand I^bdg-e : Messrs. Hardy, Smailes, Harbef, Gulley, Mc- Nicol and Dr. Jakes. Travel is becoming-brisk, the stages are doing a good business, and many strang-ers are seen in the hotels and stores.

THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES, (��>otmtatp ��reef�� ��tme# HAROLD M. LAMB EDITOR ,W. U. HARBER MANAGER Subscription, $2.00 per Year, in Advance. , SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 1897. The Times is confronted with a very difficult problem. Althoug-h scarcely five months old it already has become recognized as a valuable advertising- medium,���we make this statement not because we believe in tooting* our own horn, but simply as a fact which can be substantiated by reference to the columns of the paper itself. How to accommodate the increasing- demand upon our limited space by advertisers and at the same time g-ive due prominence to the happening-s and news week by week, not to mention the weighty editorial utterances on current topics, hitherto ruthlessly "cut out," is the question that the publishers find themselves called upon to solve. The only solution that has been suggested that would settle the difficulty is that The Times be enlarg-ed to.twice its present size; but to do this, the. machinery at present in use is inadequate. It is, therefore, proposed to org-anise a local company to take the matter in hand. Probable Effect of Competition. A representative of the. Spokane Chronicle recently asked Mr. Heinze when the Columbia & Western road would be extended to Boundary. Mr. Heinze's reply was, " Our charter provides for a road into that district but when it will be built I cannot as' yet say.'- -Interviewed by '.'' the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Mr. D. C. Corbin, president of the Spokane & Northern R'y. guardedly remarked, "There is a possibility that I may extend the present branch from Rossland on to Kettle river, and what is known as the Boundary creek country. This is as yet undecided." The situation bears an amusing- similarity to the attitude of two pug-nacious school-boys, each rather afraid of the other: "You touch me and see what you get !" What Mr. Heinze requires to make his "say" very emphatically definite is a knowledg-e that Mr. Corbin's "possibilities" have become certainties. It is a pretty well conceded fact that when Mr. Corbin starts to construct a railroad towards Boundary Mr. Heinze will follow suit, or vice versa. Meanwhile the first move in the game is anxiously awaited. MINING NOTES. Sinking was started on the Marguerite, Deadwood camp, to-day. The bond held by R. Mclntyre of Winnipeg-, on the '95 in Camp McKinney No. 2, has been taken up. Mr. S. Webb located a claim near the Skylark mine last week, wading- waist deep throug-h the snow to set the stakes. Three shifts are now working- on the Jewel, in Lrong L/ake camp. The shaft was down 25 feet on Thursday in magnificent ore. Mons. Gire is employing seven men in Central camp on the French Syndicates properties. The rock on the St. Ivawrence is extremely hard., The annual general meeting- of the shareholders of the Boundary Creek Mining- and Milling- Company was held on Thursday. A full report of/ the proceeding-s will be published in next week's issue of The Times. What is supposed to be the big- ledge of the No 7 was struck on Saturday from the,cross-cut. No assays have as yet been made of the rock, which is a white quartz. George Cook is doing assessment work on the '95, an adjoining- claim to Ruby near Boundary Falls. The Ruby vein was traced across the claim for upwards of 400 feet. Mr. Hind, after making a test of the working- of the small 10-ton smelter erected on Myers', creek, purchased the plant, which will be removed and set in position on a claim near Pass creek at once. The dance given by Mr. and Mrs. Graaf at the Brooklyn House, Greenwood camp, on Thursday evening-, was attended by a number of people from both Greenwood and Anaconda. The dance was much enjoyed. Dr. Boyce, of Kelowna, visited Greenwood this week as the guest of Dr. Jakes. Dr. Boyce practiced for some time at Fairview, and he thinks it not improbable that as that camp7- now shows signs of rapid development,, he will return and resume his former practice, particularly as the Strathyre Company have asked him very strong- ly to do so.

Mention was made in The Times last week that a syndicate of Canadian capitalists; to whom the Calumet was bonded, were negotiating to purchase the Golden Crown in Wellington camp. The dear has since been successfully consummated, the syndicate paying $15,000 to Mr. W. Porter, the original locator, for a half interest in the property. As soon as the arrangements for the transfer had been completed, Mr. Kelly, who represented the purchasers, left Greenwood for Rossland to meet Mr. Daly with the intention of taking immediate steps towards organizing a company, the name of which will be the Golden Crown Mining Co., capital stock $1,5000,000. When this is done the company will take over and develop both the Golden Crown and Calumet claims, Mr. Porter accepting shares as payment for the moiety of interest he still holds in the former property. Most of the company's treasury stock will be placed upon the English market, but a sufficient number of shares will be sold in Canada to meet preliminary expenses of prospecting, work on the claims,- and for the purchase of necessary machinery. For the meantime the properties are held in trust by Messrs. Daly, Kelly, A. McDonald,.Q.Ci, and Porter. - The Golden Crown is admittedly, one of. the most promising prospects in the camp, and has an immense surface showing. The ore is pyrrhotite where uncovered in some places, whereas the main shaft shows principally copper pyrites with- a quartz gangue. Assays run from $20 to'$200 in gold and copper. From the prospector's standpoint the Golden Crown is a well developed claim, perhaps $4,000, in round figures, representing the value of the work done estimated on the basis of contract labor. Of the two shafts sunk on the ore-body; one is down 53 feet and the other 31 feet. The claim has also been. well exploited by a number of open cuts and prospect holes. There are evidently two veins .running- through the property, one of which is supposed to be a continuation of the Winnipeg lead. With such men as Mr. Daly and his associates as the promoters of the new company ,-atove referred to, there is every reason to expect that the prediction made in The Times of Oct. 10, last-year, as follows will ere long be verified: "The Golden Crown is not 'a poor man's proposition'' by .any means ; but in'the hands of a strong company there can be but little doubt that it will develop into a large and valuable inine." . . Still another charter is being applied for, this'"latest being for. an electric railroad between the boundary line at Christina and Greenwood City. Permission will be asked at Washington i/ tp cross the Colville reserve and extend the road south. Power is to be generated at Kettle Falls or Christina Falls. As with all the other roads proposed, construction is " expected" to commence this year. TENDERS WANTED.

The Association met for the first time in their new room in The Times building on Tuesday. The secretary read the following letter received by him from Mr. G. Ford, superintendent on the Western and Pacific divisions "of the Dominion Express Co. : Sir,���I have j'ours of 6th inst.. asking- this company to establish an ag-ency^ in Greenwood, and in reply would say that with the present transportation facilities we cannot do anything- in the matter ; the risk is too great to undertake the handling of money and valuable packages b3r stage. Am sorry we cannot do anything at present, as I would like ver}' much to be represented in your section.���Yours trulv, G. FORD, Supt. Mr. Julius Ehrlich, of the Bureka Telephone Co., wrote to the Association stating that if a charter were obtained by the 15th of February, granting the company the necessary powers, 0the line from Cascade City to Greenwood would be completed within thirty days from that date. The secretary was instructed to write in reply to Mr. Tdjhr- lich'sletter that the preliminary steps for securing the charter referred to by him had been taken; and asking that the company make a more definite statement regarding the terms upon which they propose to undertake the constraction of the telephone line. A committee was appointed to prepare material for a pamphlet descriptive of trie mineral resources of the district, and showing the situation of Greenwood in relation to the respective camps. Before the meeting adjourned it was decided to keep the free reading room open from 2:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. ANOTHER IMPORTANT DEAL. It is becoming very evident that Boundary Creek is on the eve of the long--predicted " boom," for more important transfers of property have been recorded within the last few weeks than during as many months heretofore. On Wednesday Mr. W. H. Young of Spokane, representing an English syndicate with large interests in South Africa and the Transvaal, bonded the Monarch and Dandy claims in Greenwood camp and purchased outright the Tamarack, paying for the latter $4,000. The Monarch and Dandy were bonded for $15,000 and $7,5C0 respectively. The Tamarack, formerly owned by T. Humphrey, is a south extension of the Monarch. The lead, whioh is heavily iron-capped, has been opened in several places, with promising results. The Monarch, owned by Messrs. R. C. Johnson, R. McCarren, Keightly, Mc- Mynn and L,awder, lies south-east of the Gold Drop and has been bonded on no less than three occasions. Two years ago the first bond on the claim was taken by Messrs. Farrell &"Mid- geon and a shaft was sunk 30 feet, but owing to miscalculations the vein was not struck. Later, the Montreal & B. C. P.' & P. Co. bonded the property, exploiting the lead with a diamond drill, but were compelled to throw up the bond from, it is understood, shortness of funds, when the time limit expired. There is a wonderful showing of copper ore on the Monarch where the vein has been exposed, and Mr. Young is sanguine that future development will prove the property to be the equal of any of the valuable claims in Greenwood camp. , The Dandy, recorded in the name of J. W. Lind, adjoins the Tamarack on the south, and like it has an iron-capped vein. Development work will be commenced immediately on all three properties. ' Mr. McClintock, one of principal shareholders in the Morrison Mining Company, visited Greenwood on Friday and stated that he understood work would be started on the company's claim in Deadwood camp about the middle of February. a o e 13 (X *�� Be guided by this " Golden Rule*" X Before exchanging your Cash for Groceries or Clothing, remember we now have a com^ plete line of Staple and Fancy Groceries, Our assortment of Teas and Coffee are superior to anything offered on the creek for the money* Something that is sure to please you : Our Choice Export Manitoba Creamery Butter and Canadian Cheese We have also the finest assortment of Smoking and Chewing TOBACCOS in the City.

As the result of a motion passed at a recent meeting of the Anaconda Com-, mercial Club deprecating "wild-catting," the secretary received during the past week several letters of enquiry from small investors who had purchased property in Boundary upon the representation of agents. The secretary was instructed,, after the letters had been read at the regular meeting on Wednesday, to reply giving the information required as nearly as possible from data to be obtained at the Recorder's office at Midway, stating the amount of work done on trie claims specified in annual assessments, and the genuineness of the locations. The following resolution was carried unanimously, and sent to The Times for publication : Resolved : That the practice of anonymous letter writing over a fictitious signature or, under the heading of a false location, by person s devoid of sufficient courage to father their own writings, be severely condemned by this Club ; and resolved that after a canvass of the residents of this town this Club deny any connection with .or knowledge of the letter published in last week's issue of The Boundary Creek Times over the signature of ''Mark of Interrogation.'' Discussion then followed as to the character of the dance to be given under the auspices of the Club on Friday the 19th of February. Mr. Munro's suggestion that a masquerade ball would be an attraction, was favorably received, and a committee of Messrs. Hind, Munro, Keffer, Frost and Wilson was appointed to make all arrangements necessary. No expense will be spared to make the affair a success. The Commercial Club have drawn up a petition, which will be circulated for signatures, addressed to the Provincial Government, asking that char-- ters to construct railroads through the district be granted to all applicants, provided their ability to carry out the projects within a reasonable time can be demonstrated.. t . Strike on the Mother Lode. Considerable excitement was occasioned in the camp by the news of a rich strike made on the Mother L<ode last Saturday. At a distance of about 150 feet in the tunnel, the character of the ore suddenly entirely changed from sulphides, quartz and blende to iron and copper pyrites, assaying very much higher than any ore previously taken from the property. The breast of.the tunnel is now a solid 'mass of "clean" ore. In the case of the Comstock Mining Company vs. the Iya Fleur Mining Compaq' argued last week at Seattle before Judge .H.anford of the United States court, decision was .given in favor of the I^a Fleur Company, the Comstock Company being enjoined from removing any ore from the property. The I^a Fleur-mine, the ownership of which was the cause of litigation, is one of most promising of the developed properties on the reservation. The Gold Hill Quartz Mining Co., of Fairview last week let a contract for 60 feet of tunnelling on the claim, and also for the erection of a bunk-house and blacksmith's shop. The last assay from the shaft was $123.16. Boundary Creek I. & C. Association.

If some of Greenwood's unemployed would take advantage of the present cold snap and put up a few tons of ice for the dog days, they would at least ensure a grub-stake next summer. The sheriff's sale advertised for last Saturday,���in the cases of Thos. J. Hardy vs. J. A. Coryell, and C. W. H. Sansom vs. J. A. Coryell���was not held, a private settlement being effected. Mr. A. B. Anderson, recently a resident of Greenwood, has opened a real estate and mining brokerage office at Rossland. He has been appointed agent at Rossland for the Greenwood Townsite Company. Ira Messinger, the prospector supposed to have been lost , in the West Fork country last fall, returned to his home recently, only however to learn1 : that his eldest son, aged 14,. and his wife had died a few weeks previous. Owners of lots in Greenwood are beginning to place a high valuation on their property. An offer of $1,000 for a vacant lot, next to the Pioneer Hotel on Government street, was recently refusedl L/ast week a lot on Silver street upon which, however, a small shack had been built at a cost of perhaps from $50,to $75 was sold for $450. The Midway brass band serenaded Mr. C. Hi. Thom'et and his bride on Saturday last in honor of their arrival. The band rendered the "Old Hundred," Chopin's sonata in b-flat, Chevalier's "Yuss," and other choice selections from the classics very acceptably. They were afterwards hospitably en-, tertained by Mr. and Mrs. Thomet. A man could hardly select a location in B.C. where poultry farming would not prove a profitable undertaking, but if high prices and strong demand have any weight in deciding a choice then; Boundary creek has the preference. Eggs���good, bad or indifferent���have been unobtainable for many weeks and $1.25 has been offered, to our knowledge, for a dozen fresh ranch eggs. That "Greenwood" is still an appropriate name for the town was evidenced by the fact that a deer was shot on Government street last Sunday. It has been remarked by a gentleman, whose wit, it must be admitted, is not of a very high order, that while there may be lots of deer knocking about the streets now, six months hence if lots on any street are not themselves dear he will be very much astonished. The delegation recently sent to the Coast by the Boundary Creek M. & C. Association are doing good work for this district. Messrs. Smailes and McI)onnell have been interviewed by the Vancouver News-Advertiser to the extent of a three-column article on the mining development now in progress; and the prospects ahead, in the several camps tributary to Greenwood. The specimens of ore they have on exhibition are attracting much attention. A large room in The Times building has this week been comfortably fitted up as an office for the M. & C. Association and also for use as a public reading room, where a quiet hour may be spent amongst the latest papers and periodicals. All are invited to make free use of the room. Spare copies of magazines, books, and other literature are solicited and may be sent to the secretary or left in the room. The use of the room has been given rent free by The Times proprietors, the only condition being that they be insured against loss by fire. The officers of the association deserve great credit for the trouble they have taken in furnishing the room and opening to the public I so beneficial an institution. On the assurance of Mr. R. Wood that the dam on Twin Creek will be completed by or before June next, it has been decided to take no further steps in the matter of securing fire protectibn for the town beyond the erection of a small building at the corner of Government and Greenwood streets for the housing of a force-pump, buckets, etc. Upon the completion of the dam 6-inch pipes or mains will be used to carry water to the principal streets, smaller pipes being connected therewith and supplied to houses for domestic purposes. Hydrants will also be placed at suitable distances apart. NOTICE. THE Trail Creek, and Columbia Railway Company will apply to the Parliament of Canada at its next session, for an Act authorising- the Company, in addition to the railway- described in the Act 58-59 Victoria, chapter 67, to construct a railway from the terminus near Trail Creek mines described in the said Act, or from any point on the-Columbia river between the International boundary and its junction with the Kootenay river ; thence westerly to a point on Kettle river north of the International boundary ; and also authorising- the Company to issue bonds not exceeding- thirty thousand ' dollars per mile of its railway ; and extending- the time within which the Company's works may^ be commenced and completed ; and applying- the various clauses of the Company's Act of Incorporation iu so far as they are applicable to the railway above described ; and for other purposes.
