Vol. It GREENWOOD CITY, B.C., SATURDAY, JULY 10, 1897. 44 No, 18, THE MINES OF BOUNDARY CREEK. The Jewel arid Denero Grande in Long Lake Camp---The Road Thereto and the Prospecting Syndicate of British Columbia's Work-.���A Well-equipped Property. RMED with' an order courteously supplied by Mr. L/eslie Hill, CIO., the representative in ^Boundary Creek of the Prospecting- Syndicate of British Columbia, our representative was enabled on Wednesday to visit and go ^. ��� through the (for a prospect) extensive workings ^ic that have been carried on at the Jewel and Denero Grande claims by the syndicate since January last, when the properties were acquired. by them on a bond from the original locators, Messrs. Shonquest and McArthur, through the agency of Messrs. Hodgson & Barrett, of Greenwood. The deal, particularly in its aspects affecting the development of the district generally, was decidedly an important one, and though of course the members of the syndicate neither pretend nor wish to pose as philanthropists, by the character of their operations they have largely contributed towards the opening up of the camp, and by the liberal expenditure of money , evinced an enterprise arid a. confidence in the future remunerative value of their speculations that does them infinite credit. Take for instance the construction of- the sleigh road last winter from Greenwood to T^ong Iyake arid the syndicate's subsequent offer to supplement the government appropriation for the improvement of this somewhat rough thoroughfare. It is to the syndicate's interests, of course, that a passable road should be built to their properties.;' but at the same time every prospector, every owner of a claim in I/ongTyake camp or the camps en route, also reaps the benefit without being asked to contribute towards the expense. Moreover, it may be safely presumed that but for the development work being prosecuted by the. syndicate Mr. Cuppage,. the road inspector, would have thought twice before expending part of the limited sum appropriated for road improvements in his large district, to such a purpose as making a wagon road to L/ong lake. Now, however, under his direction a gang of men are at work on this road, with the result that in about a fortnight's time it will be possible to take supplies up to Iyong , lake in a wagon, instead of by the slow and costly method of packing. But about the mine itself, where our correspondent arrived by a fortunate coincidence���as it turned out���just as the' clock hands pointed to the hour of noon, there is much to say : Having done full justice to a'meal, which in point of substantiality and excellence in preparation left little to be desired afterwards���for one must enjoy a dinner at a mine cook-house after a long,ride to learn the fundamental principles of gastronomy���the writer donned overalls and jumper and, supplied with a tallow candle, followed Mr. Barker, that most obliging of foremen, down the bucket- way of the well-timbered double compartment shaft from the engine-house. Here on one side the planking has been removed for the benefit of experts who recently visited the mine, and for perhaps the first 35 or 40 feet there is as fine a showing of highly mineralized quartz as one could wish to see, the assays therefrom averaging$100 in gold, although from one spot the returns were very much higher, running over $500 in gold and silver. But at this depth (40 feet) a " horse "was encountered, and though quartz ag-ain soon came in it was for nearly 60 feet almost valueless, when rock was found at 110 feet to run $68 in gold and 26 ounces in silver. At the bottom of the incline shaft���the lead pitches about 40 degrees east���at a depth of 130 feet, a sump was sunk to hold the water which accumulates in the workings. This sump is emptied daily, the water being hauled up in a barrel by the steam hoist, the operation usually occupying about \]/z hours ; as many as 87 barrels .have been hauled up this way in an hour. By-the-way, the syndicate purchased last winter, besides the hoist, a steam pump, but this latter was detained at Marcus for such an, unconscionable time that when it at length' turned up at Greenwood the snow had disappeared, and hence it was found impossible to remove it to the mine. When the new road is completed the pump will be taken up and duly installed,, and the intention then is to so arrange that by a self-dumping bucket for the rock the engineer will be able to control the work of pumping the water from the shaft and hoisting the rock without the assistance of another man on top, as at present is obligatory. Of the drifts at the 150-foot depth, the north one has been run a distance of 80 feet, and the ���south 175 feet. In the north drift there is a good showing of quartz with galena, but in the south workings the ledge has twice broken off, only however to be ag-ain met with further on. These breaks occurred at distances respectively of 75 and 120 feet from the bottom of the shaft. The men are now working under the Denero Grande ground, the shaft having been started some 80 feet on the Jewel side from the boundary of the two properties ; thus the management wisely plan to test the merits of the two properties simultaneously. But what Mr. ��Hill and his foreman particularly rather pride themselves on is the excellent ventilation of the mine. On- Wednesday, for instance, '.'.fourteen shots werefired at noon in the south drift, and by half past one the men were again starting to drill and the atmosphere below ground was almost as pure as above. In mining proper ventilation plays an important part, both from humanitarian and economic points of view, and Mr. Hill's arrangement for supplying fresh air to the works is as effective as it is ingenious and simple. The circulation of air is maintained by the careful calking of all cracks in the planking of the double compartment shaft,, the current being further increased by a high chimney placed at the'.mouth' through which the exhaust steam from the engine is conveyed. The draft thereby caused is so great that in ascending the ladderway a lighted candle is with difficulty kept from being extinguished. Before leaving the subject one may perhaps be allowed to congratulate Mr. Hill upon securing the services of so capable and experienced a for enian as Barker, a man who by hereditary instinct (he conies of,an old Cornish race of miners,) and practical.knowledg-e acquired by many years spent in mining, eminently fits him for his present duties. This statement is fully borne out by the many useful time- saving contrivances which he has devised about the Jewel, notably the arrangement of the water-tank for supplying the engine, the changing of the track whereby the rock is so dumped as to make a level roadbed round the shaft-house and buildings. The foreman is a careful and conscientious accountant, and he keeps accurate account of the actual work dairy performed by each man in the syndicate's employ. The syndicate have now seventeen men on their payroll. Two shifts are kept at work on the Jewel, each man, even' the shovelers. receiving-$3.50 per diem; but the foreman will only engage a man permanently when he has ascertained that his capabilities are quite, up to the highest standard, consequently what work is done at the mine is done well. To sum up : the probability of the Jewel and Denero ere long dividend paying- mines is very The evidence so far goes to show, however, that breaks in the vein may be often expected, and that the values will be derived from rich streaks, or pockets. This phenomenon is nevertheless of frequent occurrence in many profitabl37 worked mines, and is in fact characteristic of pay properties in many of the richest mining districts in the northwest. The Jewel-Denero Grande lead is about five feet wide, the ore being a white, rich golden quartz, carrying tellurides, galena, and some sulphides of copper and iron. We have good authority for stating that the syndicate will erect during this year, if all things go well, a stamp-mill in I^ong L,ake camp, in which case we ma)r confidently expect to see them receive more than satisfactory returns for the commendable zeal with which they have exploited the two properties.

Mr. Almond, the newly appointed recorder, and five or six clerks have been en- g-ag-ed in the work this week. It is expected that the office at Grand Forks will be opened about Aug-ust 1. A. LI. Lawder has been appointed a provincial police officer for Boimdaiw Creek, with headquarters at Greenwood. In all probability a , provincial officer will be stationed at Greenwood after the town is incorporated, as Superintendent Hussey realizes the importance of having- the surrounding- mining- camps under police supervision.

The F/tireka camp on the reservation has been attracting-considerable attention during- the last month, but excitement rose to a fever heat when a fine .grade of free milling- ore was encoun- tered on the Republic mine', at a depth of 140 feet. The assaj's which have been made run from $60 to :ir.70 to the ton. The discovery of free milling- ore at this depth upsets all theories reg-ard- ing- mining- in Eureka, and adjacent camps on this side of the line. It was maintained that free milling- would turn to base as depth was attained. There has been, a rush to IDureka during- the past two weeks, and Curlew lake has received its share of prospectors.

McDonald, the C. P. R. freight agent for Kootenay and Boundary Creek, came to Greenwood on Tuesday, his object being to smooth over any C. P. R. freight difficulties. Whether he attained his object or not is difficult to state, but he at least kept his temper while the merchants of Greenwood hurled their anathemas against the C. P. R. in general and its Penticton agent , in particular. Mr. McDonald has a reputation for straightening put freight tangles, and he may be able to so arrange mattters that nine-tenths of the freight will not come in. by way of Marcus and Bossburg, as at present. The company has made arrangements with J. W. Bassett to carry freight from Penticton to Greenwood all the the year round for $1.50 per TOO pounds. On the other hand, the people of Bossburg have not been idle. They are ambitidus, in the little town on Corbin's railway, and they, would rather see the freight and freighters come to Bossburg than to Marcus. So the Bossburg Transportation company was formed, and it guarantees to haul freight to Greenwood 10 cents per 100 lower than it is being hauled from any other distributing point. It guarantees to see that freight is safely stored at Bossburg, that it is handled without delay, andthat the consignees are given advance notice of'the time of arrival at Greenwood. Mr. E- D. Morrison, the well known stage man, has associated himself with the Transportation company. The easiest way for the C. P. R. to settle freight difficulties and to secure the trade of Boundary Greek district is by immediately constructing a railway from Penticton. It will never have the same opportunity as it has this summer. MONARCH SOLD. J. E. Boss, representing R. E. Brown of Spokane, arrived in Greenwood on Saturday for the purpose of closing the deal in connection with the purchase of the Monarch Claim in Greenwood camp. It will be remembered that the Monarch was one of the proper ties tied up in the suit instituted by Thomas Atkinson. He claimed from Messrs. Eind, Humphries and Keightley a quarter interest in the Anaconda townsite, the Monarch, Montezuma and other claims. Shortly after the suit was started Atkinson died, and the matter was thereby further complicated. Recently the suit was dismissed at Vancouver for want of prosecution, the costs being taxed against the Atkinson estate. The properties were therefore left free. The arrangements made by Mr. Brown with respect to the purchase of the Monarch were $12,500, payable July 1, or a $15,000 bond, good for six months. Mr. Boss was so well pleased with the property that the decision was arrived at to pay the cash on July 1, and the money was paid into the National bank , at Spokane. Mr. Boss returned to Sxdo- kane on Monday. Neil Hardy, a brother of Thomas Hardy, of the Palace hotel, Anaconda, has about completed the erection of his two-story hotel on the North Fork at the mouth of Lame creek. A license has already been secured for the premises. Thomas Ella of Vancouver, who represents the famous McUary stoves, paid a business visit to Greenwood this week. ~Wgb' W. J. ARMSTRONG. "eg* Li Y.

SATURDAY, JULY 10, 1897. COMPANIES' LICENSES. Several plans-were" adopted by mining- companies to avoid paying the $100 .company's license on June 30. The simplest method was for the company to transfer the claims to one in whom it had confidence. A private individual can hold ��� claims on an ordinary miner's license. ��� The rush to avoid paying the larger license probably accounted for the exceptionally large number of transfers recorded at Midway last week. The Boundary Mines company transferred all their interest ���in the Mother Ivode, Glasgow, Helen, McGregor, and I^ady of the I^ake claims to its manager, Mr. F. Keffer. The Observation Gold Mining company transferred all interest in the Gold Nugget, Pay Ore, Quartz King, American Bill, Western Queen and one-half interest in Crown Jewel to J. H. Perkins. RAILWAY MATTERS. Recent rumors confirm the statement made in the Times a short time aero that the residents of Boundary Creek were fortunate, because while active railwaj'" construction has^ not/ beg-un yet, ������ there is a plethora of promises held out by which they can keep their1 courage up. The3r are simply enjoying a Barmecide railway feast from one end of the year to the other. . Railway promoters declare their intentions of building- in the near future from the east, west, north and south ; and when one scheme becomes stale another one is produced to fill its. place. The latest railwa}7, rumor, and one which does not appear unreasonable, is to the effect that Vice-President Shaugnessv of the Canadian Pacific railway is coming- from the east, and that his company will rush the work of constructing a road from Penticton to Robson regardless of-Heinze and his system. This rumor is not likely to enthuse the people of Greenwood, as the3r have heard similar ones before. Apropos of railway matters, John Ross Robertson's paper, the Toronto Telegram, tells a very interesting storv regarding the Heinze deal. Mr. Rob- ertson is a member of the dominion parliament and strongly opposed any aid being- given to Mr. Heinze. The Telegram sa}rs : "The Heinze railway- scheme, which failed to pass the committee in the house the other day, seems to have been one of rather gig-antic proportions. The dominion subsidv for 200 miles was $10,000 per mile, which equals about $2,000,000. The provincial government subsidy for the first 100 niiles was $4,000 per mile, equal to $400,000. A large acreage of valuable land was to be given as a bonus for the other hundred miles. It appears that after the road was finished if was to be taken over by the C. P. R., arid that the implied understanding spoken of in the committee really meant that the C. P. R. was to give $22,000 per mile in cash for the road after it was completed; or as an alternative the builders of the road were willing to take the C. P. R.'s guarantee for their bonds, and sellout for $i5,000 cash per mile for 200 miles. This would be $3,000,000; and with the $2,000^000 from the dominion, ,and with the provincial subsidyof $400,000 would make a total of $5,400,000. It is . stated that the rake-off/in the transaction would have been between two and three millions, but putting the amount at $1,50.0,000 it would be quite a neat sum to divide amongst the promoters. It is understood that two of the principals wanted 68 per cent.! of the rake-off, but that another principal interested would not agree to this proportion." Officers Installed.

GREENWOOD B.C. ���^'��� THE BO U NDARY CREEK TI MBS"; "hi- GRAND FORKS EXCITED. The day upon which loyal Canadians celebrate the confederation of the province will be a red letter day in the history of Grand Forks. The people of that usualljr quiet village fairly tumbled over each other with excitement. All its citizens, from its chief .magistrate down to the colored gentleman who breaks horses for a living- and eng-ag-es in a prize fight in the mayor's barn for amusement, were caught in the wave of excitement. Vig-ilance committees, lynching- and;, other terrible things were spoken of, but nothing- serious resulted. The cause was not hard to find. A few of the spirited citizens of Grand Forks thought they would leave their peaceful avocation of building- castles in the air to the music of the Canadian band and engage in the enterprise of mining, . they having- heard that; a few of the people of Greenwood were following that pursuit, and that it would be well to emulate their'��� example. Unfortu- nately, however, being- unacquainted with the correct mode of procedure in dealing- with mines, their good intentions were frustrated by their ignorance.; They were also unfortunate in fixing upon the Volcanic for their first experiment. Nature and "Crazy" Brown have succeeded in making the Volcanic famous. It is a mountain of no one knows what save that Brown said it contained millions. He, afterwards increased the amount to billions, and then the Olive Mining company was formed with a capital of $20,000,- 000 to take over and develop the mine. The Iron Cap and Wolverine were then thrown in to make a group in the prospectus and give the company the necessary ballast. ; Now, the principal officers of the company \ are residents of the country of the stars and stripes, but Mayor J. A. Manly of Grand Forks is vice-president. To him was entrusted the responsible work of keeping posted on all the doings of the provincial legislature, and to see that they, should introduce no acts that would "euchre" the company out of the $20,000,000 property. Mayor Manly, however, having been busily eng-aged in the work of making the Queen's, Birthday celebration and its $2.50 display of fireworks a success, overlooked the fact that under the new mining act all companies must secure companies' licenses by July 1. It is reported, however, that he sent Nels 1/arson, a heavy stockholder, to E}ureka to look at some property. "Crazy" Brown was sent with W. A. Carljde to dilate upon the wonderful richness and the wonderful showing-s in the vicinity of Grand Forks, the citizens presumably hugg-irig- the delusion that the provincial mineralogist's report might be influenced hj the magnitude of Brown's figures. The road being clear George Cum- mings and E}d. Titsworth went up on Dominion day and relocated the Volcanic, Wolverine and Iron Cap. That is, they thought they did ; but in their excitement they missed the Wolverine and the Iron Cap���a yellow-legged min-, Rossland. Investment and LIMITED LIABILITY. Greenwood.

They returned to Grand Forks and regaled Dr. Ave^rill (a partner of Mayor Manley's,) with a report of their work. Although Dr. ^verill is a heavy shareholder in the Olive company, Mayor Manly had not consulted him about the matter, and consequently he was not hearing any second hand news. The doctor is a man of action and he soon went to work to circumvent the chief magistrate. Procuring a fast team he drove in hot haste to- Midway and secured a company's license for the Olive Mining company. Gold Commissioner L/ambly has expressed the opinion that as one day's grace is always given, even to a $20,000,000 com- pairy, the license will hold good. Dr. Averill returned from Midway on Friday week, and as he passed through Greenwood there was blood in his eye. A report from Grand Forks states that he had an interview with Mayor Manly when he returned, and that compliments were interchanged so loudly that the music of the Canadian band could not be heard���not even the Wagnerian strains of the festive mos- quitoes. How the matter will be settled it is difficult to state. The Volcanic enjo}rs one or more lawsuits now, and another will'make but little difference. T B A O T a 1 j �����5 e W. S.

Parks of Helena, Montana, and; George W. Elliott of Carson, B. C, were among the mining men who visited Greenwood this week. While this is Prof. Parks' first visit to Boundary Creek, he is no���'. stranger to British Columbia. He lived for several years in Kootenay and was for a number of years connected with the Pilot Bay smelter. He is a mining expert of long experience, having represented eastern companies in Colorado and other mining states in the Union- His object in coming to this district is to acquire property for an eastern syndicate, and he lost no time in examining mines that are for sale in the different camps. He and Mir. Elliott left on ���Wednesday for Eureka camp, where thejr will also lookkt some properties. THE GOLCONDA GROUP. The members of the late federal government have sought for relief from the monotony of opposition in the excitement of British Columbia mining. Hon. T. M. Daly, the ex-minister of the interior j has moved to Rossland and, as is well known, he is president and the principal shareholder in the Brandon and Golden Crown company, owning the Golden Crown and Calumet claims in Wellington camp. Sir Charles Hibbert Tupper has taken a chance in Kootena}' mines. Hon. Dr. Montague and other ex-members of the cabinet have also taken chances in^the lottery of mining speculation. Even Hon. Geo. E. Foster, the eloquent and erudite ex-minister of-finance caught the mining fever, and during his trip last fall he ptirchased several interests. He uses good judgment, too,, in his mining operations, for a short time ag-o he secured from Mr. J. C. Haas, E^M., a half interest in the Golconda group of claims in Smith's camp. The Gol- conda g-roup is considered by experts to be one of the most promising properties in the whole district. There are in all' five claims: The Golconda, Cleveland, Eaocoon, York, and Wild Rose. These claims were formerly owned by Mr. Haas and Mr. Dales, but Mr. Haas secured Mr. Dales' half interest. He then negotiated with Mr. Foster for the purchase of a half interest, and in a short time closed the deal, the transfers having been recorded at Midway last week. Mr. Haas has at the present time a force of men at work on the Golconda. A shaft is down about 55 feet and is running through- veiw rich ore. Hon. Mr. Foster expects to visit Boundaiw" Creek this summer, and in all probability will make further investments in mining properties.

GEISE IS SURPRISED. Mr. Hans Geise, the German consul at Tacoma, and Mr. H. Venhoff* an eminent mining expert from Berlin, who spent several weeks in Boundary Creek district this spring, are again in Greenwood, While they are rather reticent about their intentions it is understood that they are anxious to invest German capital in niines in this district. -.', Mr. Geise was rather surprised when a Times representative showed him a report of Hon. A. G. Blair's speech oh the Crow's Nest Pass railway subsidy. In that speech the minister of railways read freely from a report by Mr. Geise on Boundary Creek district. Mr. Geise says his report was a confidential one, was never intended for publication, and he is at a loss to understand how it came into the possession of the minister of railways. Hon. Mr. Blair's remarks that refer particularly to Mr. Giese's report are as follows: "Now I have in my hand another authoritative statement which I think it proper to put in possession of the committee. A representative of the imperial German government took occasion to visit British ��� Columbia, and spent some months in the portions I have mentioned, including the Boundary district, of which he made a careful study. He himself was a mineral- ogieal expert, and has been in South America, in Africa, and in all the mineral countries of the world, and I suppose it was on account of his ability in that regard that the Imperial German goverhment charged him with the duty of making to them a careful report of the possibilities and of the outlook of the province of British Columbia and of the neighboring state of Washington. He went over both these sections of country. I will only take up the time of the committee by reading an extract from his interesting report. To ine it was an exceedingly interesting report, because it was not only a careful and conservative report���the report of a man who apparently was determined not to exaggerate the condition of things at all, but it was a report at the same time of one who had no interest to overstate the casein any way, .but who only wished to present , the facts for the information, of his government. Mr. Wilson���" What is the name of the gentleman ?" The minister of railways and canals���"His,name is Hans Geise. He went over all the different districts of British Columbia that I have named. He went first through Rossland, then into the west Kootenay section and Boundaiw Creek,up to Eillooet, and his survey of the situation embraces all those various portions of British Columbia. In referring- to Boundary Creek he says: 'The. third division is 'Boundary'Creek itself, with its various camps. Here it is not so easy to. decide the question of the superiority of any one spot over the other. Midway7" is here the controlling- point of a wider country, but it is outside the cluster of Boundary Creek "camps. There has, therefore, sprung- up in the Boundaiw Creek Valle}' three little villages��� Greenwood City, Anaconda and Boundary Falls, of which each calls itself the most advantageous, and therefore the place of the future. But as they have all closed together where the valley narrows the supposition seems that the whole valley will be sometime one continuous line of city life for several miles.' VAIvUE OF THE REPORT. ' 'Now, I want the committee ,��� to tin- : derstahd the value of this report. There is the information of an independent authority; there is the opinion of a man who had ho interest whatever in exaggerating- the favorable conditions which exist in that country. He was making a report for the information alone of his own government; and we find here that he makes a statement after having looked the ground over and with a knowledge which he has of the effect of mineral development in portions of the world that the supposition is but natural that the whole valley of Boundary Creek will be some time one- continuous line of city life. Well, now, what does such an ultimate accomplishment depend upon? Why it depends solely upon their being trans-> portation facilities afforded and railway construction, and means by which the people who are willing to go in and develop the country may get in supplies and fuel and carry the products of their niines out of the country. It only depends upon that, and it does seem to me a serious question whether it is not the duty of parliament. to lend every possible aid so far as practicable to rer tain the exclusive possession of the valuable territory. 5> SEPARATE Sealed Tenders, endorsed "Ten. der Government Offices, Grand Forks," or "'Tender Lock-Up, Greenwood," as the case may-be, will be received at the Government Office, Vernon, by the undersigned up to 13 o'clock, noon, of Friday, the 6th day of August, 1897, for the erection of ' .. . .

Regarding the local customs, Stunden remarked that Mr. Gilpin would shprtly remove his office to Grand Forks, and everything possible would be done towards expediting the large amount of freight coming,from Marcus to Greenwood.

Mr. Stunden visited this district and Kootenay about two years ago and was naturally astonished to find the thriving town of Greenwood instead of the log cabin, which was the only building- at the' time of his first visit. Speaking -of the customs, Mr. Stunden stated that the department was anxious to'meet the growth of the different sections of the country, and he was instructed to report where additional offices were required. There were two or three places on the inter- A meeting of the property owners in L,ong Iyake and Pass Creek camps was held in Barrett & Hodg-sdn's office on Saturday evening last. After a brief discussion Messrs. Cameron, Galloway and Hodgson were appointed a committee to collect subscriptions to augment the government appropriation of $600. An effort will be made to secure another $600 by private subscription. This will ensure the construction of a good wagon road to I^ost Creek. From here the Prospecting Sjoidicate of B.

Pigeon, of Washington, D.C., visited Greenwood this week. I. A. Dinsmore, provincial police constable at Grand Forks, paid Greenwood a visit on Thursday. Mrs. F. Shonquist is confined to the r house, suffering from a severe sprain, the result of jumping from a bucking horse a few days ago. Hugh KlcKee has purchased F. B. Smith's interest in the Fashion-Invery Stable. The business will now be carried on by Messrs. Comstock & McKee. The Midway Townsite company have given the contract for the erection of an office and residence for Customs Officer Sutherland, and also for three or . four cottages. . ' The shrill whistle of the sawmill was heard again yesterday after a silence of nearly two weeks. Renewed activity in building operations'necessitated the cutting of more lumber. Mr. Cliff is erecting a large residence , on the Townsite addition. " ��� There are some fine residential sites on this part; of the townsite, and several buildings ' will probably be erected there this summer. ;;': ���.'/'" ./'.'��� \/ The development work oh the Tin Horn mine ih Fairview has resulted, in proving the property:to be, a most valuable one.

Coryell, P.Lv.S. It is the intention of the syndicate operating- both mines to immediately apply for crown g-rants. Good progress is being-,made with the tunnel on the Sunset.. It is now in about 120 feet. Lieutenant-Governor Dewdney intends visiting Boundary Creek district shortly' with a view to investing in its mines. The lieutenant-governor is heavily interested in Kootenay mines, and it is understood that the .syndicate with whom he is associated have held a representative looking- at property in this district. L,. Bosshart and F. Dittmer completed this week the assessment work on the Gold Drop, adjoining the Jewel on the north,'-by sinking- two prospect holes about fifty feet above the shaft, and exposing- the ieclg-e in both instances. The Gold Drop is a. very- promising prospect, and some fine specimens of free gold have been obtained therefrom lately. The Prospecting syndicate of British Columbia have two men at work on the North Star, in Iyong Lake camp, which they bonded last May from Messrs. Thomet & Wood. The work was first started from the bottom of the 100-foot shaft, sunk last year by the owners, but the air here was found to be so foul that it was decided instead of sinking to run a tunnel from the side hill to tap the ledge, which is very-; flat. The argument in the Jack of Spades lawsuit, in which Mr. Robert Wood is interested, was concluded at Vancouver on Tuesday last, but a decision may not be given for several days yet. Mr. Wood expects to return home on Wednesday night. It is not known whether he discovered while on the coast the cause for the government's delay in pushing Greenwood incorporation. No word has, been received here yet regarding the matter. .; The Columbia & Western railway company have definitely decided to make the narrow gauge line between Trail and Rossland a standard gauge. A meeting of the opposition members of the legislature' was held in; Vancouver a few days ago. The questions of more complete organization and the issuing of a platform were discussed. The, most startling recent event in political circles is; the, declaration of Hon. D. W. Higgins, the speaker of &e house, that he can ho longer support the Turner government, and that in the future he will be found in opposition. ��� ���"'���"- "���" ' ���'���'."'��� Dr. T. J. Jones gives an interesting account of his trip through Boundary Creek district in the Victoria Times. Regarding- a railway he says that the "citizens of Greenwood are sorely disappointed at not having the railway built this year. They fully expected that it would be built this year, for few engineering difficulties present themselves along this route. The eminent," he said, mistake in not building the line, for much capital which, had there been a railway, would have come into this part of the country, would now be diverted into other channels." g"pv- "had made a great Death of Mr. DeCosmos.

He was a native of Halifax, and4iis proper name was Smith, which he had changed by an act of the California legislature. Fire Protection. The unseasonable wet weather of the past" two weeks is not without its advantages. The brush surrounding the city could now be burnt without danger, and it is^ to be hoped that the citizens will avail themselves of the opportunity. The midsummer sun will take but a short time again to make everything- as dry as tinder, and if an effort is to be made to lessen the dang-er from fire it should be made at once.

Fire alarm cards have been printed and will be distributed among the different houses so that all will know from the number of the alarm the location of the fire. It might-be mentioned here that the two powder magazines are still guarding either sides of Greenwood. Its residents would feel sa.fer if the magazines were removed to a greater distance.
