AST WEEyK, a few enterprising individuals, I , emulating, no doubt, the brilliant example set Jjj, ^ them by the Greenwood ." jumping^ jacks," staked a pre-emption over the newly laid off townsite of Fairview. It is a debatable question which���considered from the standpoint of athletics���performance, that of the " jumper " at G-reenwood or of his rivals at Fairview is the most noteworthy. The Greenwood feat was certainly the more difficult on account of the depth of the snow, and the Fairview athletes had probably less to "stake" on the the chance of making a " record." It is understood, however, that upon the next occasion of international games at Olympia, the world's champion exponents bf.: the long and hig-h jump will be obliged, if they wish to keep their laurels, to first show their ability to follow a true fiss(h)ure lead. Jte. ^Y6- * *�����*��� -'tv 'AC The promoters of the International Co-operative Mining Company, capital stock $10,000,000, owning two properties in Boundary valued by the vendors some few weeks ago at respectively two hundred and fifty and one hundred dollars, are dissatisfied with their consulting engineer. This gentleman was asked to prepare a report upon the camps in which the two prospects owned by the International Co-operative Mining Company were situated. He complied with the request, but most inconsiderately failed to mention that the principal and largest leads running throug-h the principal and most important claims in the vicinity, all trended in the direction of the International Co-operative Company's two prospects. For this omission, the unhappy local consulting- mining engineer will probably be given the sack��� the only asset the International Co-operative Mining Company can, perhaps, part with at the present time without serious inconvenience. Ate. While we can in all sincerity congratulate our contemporary the Grand Forks Miner upon the decidedly marked improvement of late in its style and general appearance, we would at the same time add a word of warning- against the folly .of exaggeration. There, is a natural tendency perhaps, throughout the mining districts of the Province on the part of townsite owners and others to " boom " their properties, and as a result the truth is,, in many cases, either ignored or so twisted out of shape that it is past all recognition. While at first booming- methods in a measure may possibly succeed, in the long run they generally have a boomerang effect. The class of people attracted most by exaggerated reports of prosperity are " un-em- ployed" seeking, or pretending to seek for, work. It is needless to say an increase to the population of the district from an influx of this kind is not at present desirable. How circumstances alter cases was strikingly exemplified the other day. A question was asked in the House concerning the population of Grand Forks. The Attorney-General replied stating that there were eight hundred people resid- -, ing within the limits of the proposed municipality; Mr. Cotton thereupon read a paragraph from the Miner which fixed the population at five hundred. A few days later a-' petition against the incorporation was addressed to the Government, wherein it was mentioned that the population did not exceed three hundred. And in the last statement, we fancy, will the truth be found ! *5fe iV* -=5!��- W ���sJP'. -*ft* ' ��� In view of the many applications that are being- made to the Provincial legislature this session for special water privileges, it is to be hoped that before granting any charters the Government will at least see the advisability of taking precautions to protect municipalities���now existing and hereafter to be formed���from the greed that so often goes hand-in-hand with monopoly of any kind. A measure should be enacted at once, whereby a municipality shall have the right, if need be, to purchase from a company owning and controlling the local water supply, their plant and system; not at the usually exorbitant price, from which there is seemingly no appeal, fixed by the company, but at a figure to be decided upon by a qualified board of arbitration. |Of course men who construct works for the purpose of supplying water and,light to a town of recent' growth, where the possibilities of the investment proving remunerative are dubious, deserve to be well recouped if, just when the, venture has proved a financial success, they are compelled to sell, whether they want to or not, to the municipal government. But past experience has taught that the majority of those who obtain valuable water privileges in the vicinity of towns rarely, risk money or anything else in the construction of works, preferring rather,the. " cinch " methods of profit-making- by later on compelling the municipality or city to purchase the- monopoly. Thus Vancouver was forced to buy froma company at an exorbitant figure an utterly inadequate, water system. An appeal was made to . the courts withou\ avail, ��� the company, adhering- to their price and even refusing- to allow their books to be inspected. An attempt was also made by a company holding a charter to supply water to' Vernon, to sell their right to the city, for a large sum. " According- .to the terms of their charter, work was to be commenced by, the company within a specified time ; a few.days before the time expired a quantity,of drift wood and gravel was. piled across the outlet of the lake, representation, being- made that work on the company's dam had been started I Recently the. new Nelson corporation had a narrow escape from being obliged to purchase a worthless system fronr a local company having a monopoly of the water supply. The strong- feeling in all sections of the Province against the wholesale.giving away of natural resources to greedy speculators, has already borne fruit, a government measure having being introduced in the legislature tending to conserve to public use all unrecorded water. The g-overnment will in future charge rent for water privileges; water cannot be had without using-, and if wasted the record will be cancelled ; municipalities are given power to obtain a good water supply for present or anticipated use; companies supplying- power or light must deal fairly with the public, and their charges, fares, etc., must be submitted to the lieuten- ant-governor in council for approval. ''���$!������ $1 $* ���' ��� ?l& "fit" tR" It is very disappointing to find that after all the expense incurred by the government in appointing another county court judge for Kootenay, for the purpose of relieving Judge Spinks of part of his too onerous duties, the learned gentleman would seem to indicate, by his unpunctuality in holding court at the specified times advertised, that he is still overburdened with work. May we sugg-est to Judge Spinks the advisability, when there are so many unemployed seeking work, of hiring a deputy (he could get a man for a dollar a day and board) to sit on the bench on court days, while His Honor attended to the more pressing work of looking- after his mining interests. Such a course would at least be appreciated by those now inconvenienced by the Judge's un- punctuai habits. In all seriousness, however, if Judg-e Spinks finds it impossible to hold court at any place on the day advertised, he should see that sufficient notice is given to litig-ants and lawyers, and thereby save them the annoyance and expense consequent upon his unpunctuality. THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES, MINING NOTES. Application will be made by owners next week of the Helen for a crown grant. On Tuesday the new steam hoist was installed and started to work on the Jewel. The shaft is now down 100 feet on the property. Archie Connors is doing- the assessment on the Silver Plume, in Summit camp. This claim adjoins the Dmma, and it is thougvht the Homestake lead can be traced on to the g-round. Mr. Germaine purchased this week a half interest'in the Nug-g-et, adjoining- the Gold Drop and Snowshoe, in Greenwood camp, from W. Shaw. The Nug-g-et, from its location, should prove a valuable property. The tunnel which is now in over 30 feet on the Great Hesper, in Smith's camp, is well mineralized for all the distance. This week, however, a body of clean ore was struck carrying-, fine grained g-alena, blende and copper and iron pyrites. The . claim's prospects are very promising-. The work that is being done on the Rob Roy, adjoining- the No. 7, in Central camp, by Alex. Wallace is showing- up a fine body of steel g-alena ore. It is the intention to carry the shaft, which is now down 40 feet, to . a depth of 100 feet and drift. When this is carried out there is no reason why the Rob Roy should not prove to be as. the No. 7 is now known to be. Jim Cunningham has single-handed already succeeded in sinking- a vertical shaft to a depth of 17 feet on. the Remainder, in Summit camp ; and although the process of climbing- up and down a ladder to empty a.heavy bucket of ore is anything- but an easy task, he intends to continue sinking- several, feet further, en?ourag-ed by the very promising: showing- in the shaft, the bottom of which is all cin ore, copper predominating. He also recently ran a tunnel for 30 feet on another claim, the Columbus, in Summit camp. A Big Offer for the Gold Drop. Mr. I^ewis Hind returned on Wednesday from Rossland and Vancouver and reports that the greatest interest is manifested by people of both places in Boundary Creek. In Vancouver he was informed by one of the owners of the Gold Drop, Greenwood camp, that an offer of $200,000 for the property had been made to the syndicate. This story was subsequently confirmed by Mr. Geo. Turner who, it will be remembered, superintended the development work on the claim last year. Mr. Turner said that three offers had been made to the syndicate for the Gold Drop, one of which represented ten times the amount of the sum paid out oti the property���about $20,000. This offer was based on the results of the diamond drilling, and from a report of an expert who examined the property last fall. Mr. Turner very much regretted that the syndicate had not purchased the Monarch, as he strongly recommended them to do, but the reason was to be attributed to one or two heavy losses sustained by the syndicate in Cariboo and the Slocan. There was a great demand in Vancouver for the Anaconda Commercial Club's pamphlet descriptive of Boundary Creek, of which Mr. Hind had a limited number to distribute.

Propper and wife came over from Grand Forks on Tuesday, to participate in the masquerade ball. Mr. J. J. Caulfield this week bought Mr. Powell's interest in Rendell & Co.'s general merchandise business. Messrs. Miller Bros, have built a sidewalk in front of their store on Copper street. Among- the arrivals on Monday was Capt. Ralston, mineral locator for the "Iron Duke." Mr. Ostroski, of the Greenwood City Mercantile Company, recently won a suit in San Francisco involving a sum of $100,000. A slight mistake occurred in our last week's issue : Mr. F. B. Smith was the locator, of the Peterson rauch, not Messrs. Smith and Hodgson. The Times is requested'to announce that an effort will be made to organize a chess club in. Greenwood. Players of the royal game are asked to leave their names at this office. Mr. J. Powell, who has been suffering for some time past from rheumatism, left on Thursday for the Harrison Hot Springs, having sold out his interest in Rendell & Co.'s store. The contractors of the Midway irrigation ditch have at present only some twelve men working, but intend directly the snow goes off to increase their Jorce to between sixty and eighty men. It is stated that Mr. Heinze's branch line between Trail and Robson is practically the first section of the Columbia & Western .road towards Boundary creek, it being the intention to build" the next section by way of Dog creek. It is to be regretted that a man of heretofore unblemished character, such as Mr. 10. P. Suydam, should be guilty of the heinous offence of "jumping." Mr. Suydam on Monday jumped 'part of Mr. Fisher's townsite pre-emption and has menaced to shoot anyone who attempts to evict him,. Mr. W. Miller, formerly of Rossland, has opened a tailor's shop on Copper street and is now prepared to take orders. Judging from the large orders secured by representatives of eastern tailoring firms who have visited the district, a local sartorial establishment should be well patronised. The assayers in town are making great preparations for an anticipated busy season's work; Mr. Gibbs has just received two new furnaces and a very beautiful pair of balances made by Oertling, of Ivondon. Messrs. Guess Bros, have fitted up their laboratory with cabinets for specimens and shelves for chemicals, the place having a most workmanlike appearance. Mr. F. Dittmer, who returned last week after a somewhat protracted absence in Spokane, states that a visitor to that city from Boundary Creek has now to confront the difficulty of escaping the attentions of anxious enquirers desirous of obtaining information on all matters relative to this district. He anticipates that all sorts and conditions of men from Spokane and other Washington cities will try their fortune in Boundary this summer, but fears that a great majority of the immigrants will be men seeking work, and that the same undesirable state of affairs will then be experienced here as in Rossland at the present time.

LAMB EDITOR W. J. HARBER MANAGER Subscription, $2.00 per Year, in Advance. SATURDAY, MARCH 20, 1S97. THE MOTHER LODE. Final Payment Made���An Immense Showing- Ledge Two Hundred Feet Wide. On Wednesday the Boundary Mines Company made the final payment to Messrs. McCormick, McCuaigf and Schuiield of $4,000 (the purchase price being- $16,000), on the Mother Lode in Deadwood camp. The company bonded the claim last June ; a crosscut tunnel was, started from the lime contact in September, and after 20 feet of lime had been ' passed throug-h, ore was struck. Incredible as it may appear, from that date until now the whole of the tunnel has been in ore which improved the. further it was penetrated ; thus, as the tunnel has been driven for 222 feet, the ledg-e at this has proved to be at least 200 feet wide, and yet the hanging- wall has not been reached. During- Mr/ Keffer's absence at Rossland two weeks ag-o, the men failed to continue the tunnel in a directly straig-ht line, g-oing- off slig-htly in a diag-onal direction. This may account for a possible four feet in estimating- the width of the ledg-e. Nevertheless it can be authentically stated that the tunnel will show the ledg-e to be over 200 feet wide. The walls are nearly perpendicular, dipping- perhaps 20 to 25 degrees to the east, which in min- eralog-ical science is evidence that the ledg-e is permanent and not a mere deposit or overflow. Thus it is safe to assume that the Mother L,ode will be one of the greatest, if not. the very greatest, copper-gold producing- mines on the continent at no distant date. What the ore assays cannot be ascertained, but it is known to carry g-ood values. Moreover, judg-ing- from assays recently made of ores of almost identical appearance from adjacent claims, the Mother Lode ore is of g-ood shipping- grade. If there was any question of the extraordinary mineral resources of the Boundary Creek district, the showing- on the Mother L/ode and on one or two other properties that have been opened up in the camp would be quite sufficient to verify the assertion. It will be a very short time now before Boundary Creek will take its place in history as the most remarkable g-old and copper bearing- reg-ion on the f ace of the globe. SELF-EXPLANATORY. The following- letter from the president of the Spokane Falls & Northern R'y Co. is sufficiently explicit to require no introduction : Spokane, March 15th, 1897. H. Mortimer Lamb, Esq., Boundary Creek Times : Dear Sir,���Answering- your letter of the 6th, which has been delayed owing- to my absence, I have to say : I have so far carried out my undertaking's in reg\ard to extensions of our line into the upper country, about as I planned in 1893. I have always had your district in view. I have great faith in its future, but am hardly in a position to say definitely, at the present time, just when construction on the proposed road will commence. It is my intention, as soon as the season and roads will permit, to visit the principal points in the Boundary Creek country and take a look at your mines ; and when I do so, I shall hope to have the pleasure of meeting- you.���Yours truly, D. C. Corbin, President. The Citizens' Committee Meeting. In the hurry of g-etting- out our last issue caused by the extra matter which at the last moment had to be inserted, the explanation of the action of the . Citizens' Committee with reg-ard to the Midway shooting- case was somewhat inaccurately reported. It was stated that the Committee had decided to take further steps in the matter on account of Mr. McMynn's refusal to compensate Mr. Hood. This, however, is hardly the case. The point with the Committee, who thoroughly represent the community, is the question of justification. As Mr. McMynn has practically pleaded justification the Committee decided that it was their duty to see that the matter was carried to the courts and a judicial decision obtained. As far as Mr. Hood is personally concerned he has his recourse by bringing- a civil action ag-ainst Mr. McMynn for damages. But this does "not concern the public ; the question that does concern the public is, under what circumstances (if any) can a constable be justified in shooting- at a man neither caug-ht in the act of committing-nor accused of any crime ? The gentlemen acting- upon the Committee are undertaking from, it must be emphatically repeated, a sense of duty, whether wisely or otherwise may be afterwards perhaps discussed, an onerous and unpleasant task, and are, therefore, entitled to respect. *Tn view of the utterly baseless attacks that have recently been aimed at the Committee, this explanation is due them. ANACONDA NOTES. Mr. Kelyer, foreman at the No. 7 mine, has gone to Spokane on a brief holiday. Mr. Keffer intends building a large and, judging from the architectural plan, comfortable cottage in Anaconda shortly. Several other buildings are also likely to be built in the town directly spring opens. ���. The regular meeting of the Commercial Club was held as usual, but owing to the non-attendance of the secretary, whose wife is seriously ill, after the reports of the several committees had been presented an adjournment was made until Wednesday next. George Macartney, a well known miner who has been working in the Victoria mine at Camp McKinney, arrived at Anaconda on Sunday. Speaking of the Victoria he said it was " the adjective, adjectivest property in the adjective camp." A recommendation which should certainly help to sell the Company's stock when it is put on the market. p-ORBES M. KERBY, . Assoc. Mem. Can. Soc. Civil Eug-in'eers, (provincial $MtCb, J^umjjo?

THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES, TUESDAY'S DANCE. It must be confessed that it becomes a trifle wearisome in making a report upon every dance that takes place in the district when one has never any alternative but to state that the affair was a success. For the sake of variety it would be almost a relief if some one would give a dance whereat the music would be played out of time and tune, the dancers look out of temper, and the supper execrable. Some of us at least would enjoy the novelty. However, the masquerade ball, given by the proprietors of the Pioneer hotel on the eve of St. Patrick's day, was in colloquial language, " away up." The temporary hall hastily erected on the floor of Messrs. Sansom & Holbrook's new building answered all purposes admirably, being spacious enough to admit of three sets dancing at the same time without'discomfort. Some of the costumes were excellent and, what is more, the characters sustained their parts. Mr. Georg-e Seymour, as a sandwich-man, was really capital, and he looked to the life the pitiable object that may at any time be seen standing about street corners of large cities, with "sprung" knees, toes showing- through dilapidated boots, and with an expression of countenance half pathetic but wholly imbecile. The local "hits" printed on his placard were also good. Mr. Fisher, who was attired as a nurse carrying a very realistic, baby, was well costumed. Most of the ladies' dresses were picturesque but the majority were not sug-gestive of any particular characters. The following were among those present:, Mrs. Wilkins... School girl. Miss Wilkins Housemaid. Mr. Wilkins Grandpa. Mr. J. Fisher .��� Nurse. Mr. Seymour ; Sandwich-man. Mrs. Se3Tmonr Scotch lassie. Mrs. Martin School girl. Mr. Lind..l Clown.

Mrs. Ka3r Yatchiug- Costume. Miss Buckley Flower girl. Mr. Hicks Fat boy in "Pickwick." Mrs. Widmark Milkmaid. Mr. Jackman Buffoon. Mr. McKag-ue Methodist Preacher. Mr. Braden Bic3rclist. At midnight the guests partook of supper in the Pioneer hotel, covers being laid for over a hundred people. The cooking left nothing to be desired, oyster soup, lobster salad, cold roast chicken, ham and beef, confectionaries and dessert comprising the menu. The dancing continued until 4 in the morning, and thanks to the untiring efforts of Messrs. Munroe and Holbrook, the floor managers, the enjoyment never flagged. . ' The Golden Cariboo. Three gold bricks from the Cariboo (Camp McKinney) mine are now lying in the vaults of the Traders' bank at Spokane. The bricks are worth about $9,000. After paying its last dividend the Cariboo still had $15,000 on hand and there is therefore a laxge enoug-h sum in the Company's treasury to pay if necessary two divile:i:":s in advance. ^\^&^&^&^&^&&t&^&&\ #### W.

Bealey & Co., has rented an office from Mr. Hart, on Government street, for the transaction of the firm's business until the weather conditions are more favorable for building when a larg-e structure will be erected on the site purchased by Mr. Bealey some months ago. For the present the firm will devote more attention to working- up a fire insurance, real estate and g-eneral brokerag-e business in Greenwood than to banking-, as the difficulty and risk attending the transportation of currency under existing- conditions is too great to admit of a banking- business being- carried on on a larg-e scale. Speaking- of Greenwood .Mr. Naden remarked that in his opinion all the indications are favorable that the town will ere long* become of even greater importance as a mining- and commercial centre than Rossland itself. He went to Rossland two years ag-o, when that town was a very insignificant place indeed, and after watching- the marvellous growth of the tiny hamlet to the town only second to Vancouver in population on the mainland, he is prepared to witness the future rapid developments on Boundary creek with stoical.calm. Mr. Naden has purchased a. lot near the hospital and will build a residence thereon shortly. Mrs. Naden will probably join her husband here in the next week or so. FAIRVIEW CAMP. The mining- activity at Fairview continues unabated. The names of some 75 men are on the pay-rolls and the camp receives every week visits from experts representing- foreign capital. , The Morning- Star mine is shortly to be examined.by engineers acting- for an English syndicate who recently made the highest bid for the Rossland War Eagle���the Ivondon & B.C. Gold Fields Co. This property is one of the best free-milling propositions in the camp, the fact, of the present owners having at one time rented the Strath- eyre Co.'s mill and after a few weeks run cleaned up nearly $60,000 in gold, being well known. Mr. Dixon, manager of the Smuggler, who held a bond on the Stem- winder, owned by Fred. Gwatkin and Geo. Sheehan, was two days late in making a second payment on the property, and thus forfeits the money already deposited. A big strike was made on the Tinhorn last week, one of the properties owned by Messrs. Dier & Davidson. A tunnel was started on the claim from a big outcrop of barren quartz, and run for some distance, when a fine ledge ten feet wide on blue quartz, carrying high values, was encountered. Strike on the D, A. Some. very fine specimens of ore showing native silver were brought down from the D.A., one of the Boundary Creek M. & M. Co.'s properties, on Saturday. From the starting of the tunnel, which is now iii between 30 and 40 feet, the ledge has sensibly widened and has now running with it a pay streak six inches wide, containing high values both in silver and gold. The ore at present being mined on this claim would pay to ship, even under existing transportation conditions.

Mr. Hart and family returned home from Grand Forks on Monday. The sitting of the County court at Midway was postponed from Monday to Friday. , We are requested to state that Mr. Fisher has withdrawn his name from the citizens'committee. It is reported from Grand Forks that at a meeting held there this week for the purpose of nominating municipal officers, it was found that no five residents of the town could be named who were eligible for aldermen, and that Mr. John Manly alone had the necessary qualifications for the mayoralty. Mrs. Robt. Wood left on Thursday for Armstrong, to meet her husband on his return from Victoria. Mr. W. Forrest,'a well-known Cariboo mining man, arrived in Greenwood on Thursday and intends visiting the camps of the district. . The public, school was. closed, this week, owing to the prevalence of sickness among the children. Two or three cases of chicken-pox are reported. Profs. Voorhees and Davis will give a- grand concert at the Commercial Club's hall, Anaconda, Monday evening, March 22nd, and give a. social dance, af��er the entertainment. Several bets involving large amounts were.tnade in Greenwood on the result of the. Corb.ett-FitzSimmoh prize fight, the hews of FitzSimmon's victory was received .yesterdayijand caused much excitement. Messrs. R. J. Bealey & Co., of Rossland and Greenwood; have incorporated as the "Bealey Investment and Trust Company," with- the. following as stock-holders: R. J. Bealey, Martin King and Howard S. Wallace, of Rossland ; Geo. R. Naden, of Greenwdod, and Geo. W. Richardson, of Nelson. The capital stock is $50,000. Irishmen (and otherwise) celebrated St. Patrick's day,becomingly on Wednesday at Greenwood. Many, however, are now firmly of the impression that when their patron saint banished the snakes from the'I^riierald Isle the reptiles immigrated to the banks of Boundary creek where they settled down and lived, happily ever after. The effects will probably pass off in a few days. Upon information laid by Const. EH- kins, O. Sandford, of Boundary Falls, was summoned to appear before Mr. G. T. Hodgson, J.P. on Tuesday to answer to the charge of assaulting Ah Sing, a chinaniin employed as cook at the Boundary Falls hotel. As the evidence was conflictory and it also was shown that the Heathen was an "ag- gravatin' begg*ar," the case was allowed to be settled out of eour't; Sanford paying costs. Mr. W. A. Carlyle, the Provincial Mineralogist, writes to The Times to say that he hopes to visit the Boundary Creek district in the early part of the coming summer, but he is .dependent for orders from the Minister of Mines who has yet to decide what Mr. Carlyle is to undertake this year. Mr. Carlyle says : <CI am very desirous of seeing your part of the country and I read with great interest everything I can find concerning your mines and ore- bodies. I have a map of the southern part of Yale now printed on which will be put further details after I have examined that region. In the annual report for 1896 now nearly ready for issue Mr. Fowler has a short sketch on Boundary Creek. Yesterday niorning two prominent, residents of .the town were charged before J. Kerr, J. P. and G. T. Hodgson, J. P. with being drunk and disorderly and with obstructing and resisting Provincial Constable XDlkins in the execution of his duty. The accused pleaded guilty to both charges, and as Constable lOlkins did not wish to press the matter, the bench imposed a fine in each case of $10 and costs, at the same time warning the prisoners that to obstruct an officer in the discharge of his duty was a very serious offence and they might congratulate them- selve.s upon being , so leniently dealt with. In view of the fact that from all accounts there were certain extenuating circumstances in favor of the pris oners names have in purposely omitted. this case been MINING NOTES. The Republic and None Such shafts have been emptied of water and sinking is now well under way. Mr. McClennan has taken an option on the Keno, Wellington camp, owned by F. McMann and J. Myers for $15,000. Some more specimens were brought down during the week taken. from the D.A. tunnel. The specimens showed not only native silver but large atoms of virgin gold. The paystreak which runs with the main ledge as now seen in the tunnel is well worth going far to examine. The. Boundary Mines Company have reduced the working force on the No. 7 to three men for the meantime, the question as to whether * the claim- was likely to prove a mine having- been finally and satisfactorily'settled in the affirmative. A drift is now beinjg run along the ledge and a magnificent body of ore lias been shown up. A distance in the drift of 140 feet from the bottom of the shaft was reached., this week. Thus considerably over 400 feet of drifting has been done on the property at^ the 140-foot level since the commencement of the winter. As soon as the snow goes off surface work in the way of crosscutting will be started. TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. THE undcrsig-ned hereby gives notice that he has withdrawn from the g-eueral mer- chauise business carried on under the firm naftie of Rendell & Co., and has now no interest therein.
