A g-entleraan by the name of Cottam recently visited Boundary, and, after spending- several days in the camp, purchased two claims, one the I^ondon, in Skylark, the other the Morning Star, in Wellington camp. The purchase price of the former was $100 and of the latter $250, if we are correctly informed. On the L/ondon there is a small vein of quartz, perhaps a foot wide, assaying between $50 and $60, which is, of course, a- satisfactory showing enough for a claim valued at the sum of one hundred dollars. The Morning Star has nothing as yet to recommend it beyond the fact that it adjoins the St'. Klmo���a fairly good prospect. On the strength of these purchases, which by-therway were obtained "on time," Mr. Cottam and others have issued a prospectus and organized the International Co-operative Mining Company, capital stock $10,000,000 ! All the stock is to, be placed in the treasury (it is not stated who- keeps the key), but Mr. Cottam as vice-president, etc., etc.. of the conipany will be a silly man if he does not receive back, the money he spent in travelling from Tacoma to Greenwood and return after the first allotment of shares is sold. Further comment is hardly necessary. ���Me- We confess that we have not much sympathy for investors who purchase claims first without verifying the statements of vendors and then wake up one fine morning to "find that they have been made famous idiots of. The verdict generally is " serves 'em right." Just so. But, nevertheless the the small investor is a useful man. It was his class who built up Rossland, and it does a camp no good when a man g-oes away and gives out, as some, not perhaps all, will, that he was badly" bilked " in such and such a place. Some provision should be made to protect the small investor, and he should be warned whenever an opportunity occurs to be careful in his dealings with men who are known to be notoriously unscrupulous. &�����*��� *V��* ���*����*" ���JJ*.**" 1R- Naturally enough the shooting affair at Midway has been the all-absorbing topic of conversation during the week. Why has Mr. McMynn not given himself up, or why has he not been arrested for the alleged offence ? has been repeatedly asked. Up to the time of going to press we have not heard that any steps have been taken towards instituting an enquiry, but that there will be an enquiry no one at all doubts. Nevertheless, it is only reasonable to infer that as Mr. Hood has as yet failed to lay an information against the man who shot at him, that both Mr. McMynn and the two constables have grounds for believing that the shooting last Friday was justified, and not, therefore, an indictable offence. If they have not, the constables are deserving of strong censure for failing to do their duty. Uutil, however, the evidence on both sides has been heard it is impossible to express a just and unbiased opinion on the ins and outs of this decidedly strange case; moreover it should be remembered by those who have already tried and condemned Mr. McMynn in their own minds that he is at least entitled to the same consideration accorded in British courts of law to prisoners, namely the assumption that a man is innocent until his guilt is established. That Mr. McMynn in a letter to Mr. Hood expresses regret for having shot him, is no admission that the shooting was done under entirely unjustifiable circumstances, notwithstanding that the act was partially attributed to the effects of nervousness following an attack of illness, must be acknowledged. Though whether an officer can make an excuse of this kind and still retain his position is another question. Knowing the indignation that had been aroused by the corroborative story of the four witnesses to the shooting, we are inclined to think that Mr. McMynn would have shown a better spirit and strengthened his own cause had he at once taken the bull by the horns and courted an enquiry, whatever his other reasons may have been for not doing so. ���Vftv It will astonish nobody if many of the mineral, claims in- the vicinity of Vernon turn out to be in the . course of the next year or so dividend paying mines and, who can tell, worthy rivals to Rossland's I^e Roi. They have some wonderful showings at Camp Hewit, and reports therefrom have recently been most encouraging. The people of Vernon seem to have been blessed with more thaii a fair share of Nature's bounties. a*/* *��*. *��*��� ���Sj-i* "����*��� If? NOVEL METHQD OF PLACER MINING. Mention was made last year in the local papers of a novel method of mining for _5lacer gold that was, about to be tried on the Similkameen river. Further particulars of the venture have recently been received as follows :��� ��� A stern wheel steamer has been built and fitted with all the appliances for hydraulic mining by a certain Captain Finch. Pumps capable of handling 150 cubic feet of gravel per hour form the principal part of the machinery. These pumps are operated on an 8-inch hose, and the gravel is pumped from the bed of the river. This hose can.take, up a boulder six and a half inches in size from a depth of fifty feet to a height of over twenty feet above the water levej. All of the material passes through a g-rizzly, and is treated much the same way as in ordinary sluice-box mining*. This principle, however, is not a new one, but the method of prospecting the bed of the stream is. decidedly so, being no less than the employment of a deep sea. diver to search the river bottom for the most likely spot whereat to operate the pumps. The history of the boat and its passage up the Similkameen is interesting. The boat was built at Wehat- chee in the Winter of 1895-96 and completed last June; It was then taken up the Columbia to the Okanagan, then steamed to Oro, a distance of about ninety miles, and from - thence several miles up the Similkameen, where it is now anchored in readiness for the commencement of operations when conditions are favorable. Much of the ground that will be prospected was worked nearly forty years ago, but only the coarser gold was saved by the crude appliances used in those days. The result of this novel experiment will be awaited with interest. ���S'/S" SALE OF GREENWOOD LOTS. The time of the option given to Messrs. L,ee & Anderson, representing a syndicate of Rossland business..men, of purchasing 54 Greenwood City lots, expired on Wednesday of last week, the syndicate accepting the terms imposed by the townsite conipany and binding themselves to expend $2,000 in building upon the property within four months from the date of the signing of the agreement/ There is still a remote possibility, however, that the dear will .not be carried through, as a promise was first made that the lower part of Government street, where the majority of the lots selected by the syndicate are situated, should be graded by the 1st of June ; but it is now thoug-ht that the work cannot well be completed before the 1st of July, and the syndicate will be asked to agree to this amendment to the /original arrangement. THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES, ODD-FELLOWSHIP. Pursuant to instructions from the hig-her authorities, Mr. O. B. Nelson, district deputy grand master, came over from Carson on Monday, accompanied by a number of the members of Carson L,odge, for the purpose of instituting- a lodge of the Independent Order of Oddfellows in Greenwood. The school-room had been fitted up temporarily for use as a hall, and will be used as such until a new building is erected. The usual formalities were commenced about 8 o'clock and were continued till midnight, but space is too limited to describe in detail the weird and mystical features of the ceremony ;, suffice it to say that Boundary Valley I^odge, No. 38, I.O.O.F., is now a duly organized lodge of the Order, with full powers and privileges, and is the first secret society on Boundary Creek to receive its charter. The first regular meeting- was held on the following night, when several new members were initiated ; future meetings will be held" every Tuesday evening; at 7.30. At the conclusion of Tuesday's meeting an adjournment, was made to the Palace hotel, Anaconda, where a sump- f tuous collation had been provided and where a couple of hours were passed in fraternal goodfellowship. Among those present were Bros. O. B. Nelson, ID. Spragget, D. McLaren, E}. Driscoll, Scott McRae, Murray, Docksteadder, G. McKague, Smith (Portland) and others resident near by, in addition to the members ,of the newly-instituted lodge. The officers duly installed are : N.G.���Thos. Hardy. V.G.���R. Smailes. P.G.���I. H.

To the Editor, Boundary Creek Times : Sir,���A representative meeting of the miners and merchants was held in Greenwood City at 3 o'clock this afternoon, when the following resolution was unanimously passed: "That the following gentlemen be appointed a committee to represent the citizens and to memorialize the Attorney-General in regard to the shooting of Mr. R. J. Hood by Mr. W. G. McMynn, chief constable and recorder, namely, G. A. Rendell, S. Breslauer, J. Fisher and Leslie Hill; that this committee have full power to emplo3' counsel and do all things necessarj- to secure a full and impartial investigation of this shooting." All those who did not receive notice of this meeting will kindly excuse it, as it was necessary to get out the papers in time to catch Tuesday's mail. The committee afterwards met and, having obtained the legal advice of Mr. Hallett, drew up the enclosed memorial which will be forwarded to the Attorney-General, Hon. Col. Baker (minister of mines), Mr. Hussey (supt. of police), Mr. Graham, and to the press. There is no doubt that the Government will do its dut3r in this matter and that a full and exhaustive enquiry will be held and justice will be done.

A, nieeting of representative citizens . of Greenwood was held on Monday afternoon in the offices of the Boundary Creek Kngineering & Assaying Co., to discuss the shooting of Mr. Hood by the mining recorder, Mr. Mc- Mynn. Mr. Iyeslie Hill was appointed to the chair and briefly stated the reasons for convening the meeting, reading Mr. McMynn's letter to Mr. Hood as follows : Government Office, Midwa3', Feb. 26th, 1897. Reginald J. Hood, Esq., Greenwood City, B.C.: Sir,���I am verjr sorry indeed to learn that you were wounded in the arm here this morning- by me with a^glancing pistol bullet. About 3.40 this morning-1 was awakened out of a heavy sleep by a hammering- noise, which ' I took to be someone breaking- the office ; also hearing- talking- and people walking- on the floor, and a few minutes afterwards on looking- out of the kitchen window saw someone walking- up and down on the snow in front of the office door. While watching- this man Miss McKenzie came to me and told me some people were hammering- in the office. I then rushed, outside bare-headed with only a few clothes on, and you know what followed. When first awakened I was wet with perspiration, caused by a drug-which I had taken a few hours before, and for the previous week had been most of the time in bed under Dr. Jakes' care. I was therefore very weak'and presume that this drug- also acted upon my nerves, hence the hasty action which I took to frig-hten the people whom I,thoug-ht were around. I know that if I had been in ordinary, .health I would have acted very differently, but now that the action is over I can only express my sorrow for the( result and trust that in a few days you will be all rig-lit again.���Yours faithfully, , , ��� W. G. McMYNN.' - Mr. Wm. L,ewis, who was with Hood when the shooting occurred, was then asked to tell what he knew of the matter. With the exception1 of the fact that he stated that Hood was standing on the platform before the door of the recorder's office when the shots were fired, his account did not differ in any particular from the report of the occurrence published in last week's Times. Several of those present expressed astonishment that Mr. Mc- Mynn had not up to that time been arrested and was still acting as a government official. After a short discussion Messrs. Hill, Rendell. Breslauer and Fisher were. appointed a committee, with full power to act as the representatives of the citizens, to memorialize the Attorney-General, the Provincial Secretary, Superintendent Hussey and Mr. Graham, M.P.P. enclosure The following have been for- letter and warded : Greenwood, March 1st. Sir :���On the morning- of 26th Feb. 1897, a prospector named Reginald J. Hood while waiting- at the Record office at Midway was shot throug-h the arm by W. G. McMynn, chief constable and mining* recorder. T The enclosed copy of a letter written by McMynn will give his version of what took place. From the evidence of Mr. Wm. Lewis, who was present at the time,-and others, it seems that Mr. McMynn fired three shots at Lewis and Hood. One shot passed close to their heads, one,passed throug-h Hood's arm and one struck the railing- close to them. Mr. McMynn, after Hood had exclaimed that he was shot fired three more shots. Therefore you will see that by Mr. McMynn's own statement that he is totally unfit to hold the office of constable and that by the evidence of others he has committed a serious criminal offence, namely shooting-with intent to kill. So far no action has been taken by anyone in authority and an evident attempt is being- made to shield McMynn from the consequences of his action. Mr. McMynn is still acting- as constable, therefore it has become necessary that the citizens should take action in the matter;. At a representative meeting- of the citizens held in Greenwood City this day the following g-entlemen were appointed a committee to represent the citizens, namely : G. A. Rendell, S. Breslauer, J. Fisher and Leslie Hill. We therefore call upon you to suspend this constable from his office and we demand that you hold a full and impartial enquiry. & &. JL &c& Bl. St*.

The regular meeting of the Association was held in the school-house on Wednesday, instead of Tuesday evening (the usual night,���the Oddfellows occupying the room that evening). There was a larger attendance of members than usual. After the minutes of the previous meeting had been read and passed, the following letters, received by the secretary, were considered : From the Chief Commissioner of. Tit. & W., acknowledging receipt of petition re road from Greenwood to North Fork ; from A. Cameron, C.P.R. freight agent, notifying the. association that his company, although undertaking to pay Mr. Snodgrass for transferring goods to Okanagan Falls to equalise conditions of carriage, would assume no. responsibility for loss or damage to the goods after their removal from the wharf at Penticton ; from Mr. Iv. Norris, government agent at Vernon, in reply to a request for a copy of the voters' list for Yale district, stating that he intended immediately preceding the court of revision, to be held at Vernon on the first Monday in August next, to place a copy of the list as it then stands in the government offices at Midway and Osoyoos. This will be done to expedite the work of revision and to ensure a thorough collection of all names entitled to "be on the list. There was no provision made in the Act for supplying copies gratis. From Mr. Harber, manager of The Times, stating that the room used as a reading-room had been rented and requesting that the Association's furniture be remoVed. as soon as .possible. From Mrs. Wood, expressing thanks for the resolution of sympathy on account of Mr. Wood's illness. With regard to Mr. Cameron's communication, Mr. Galloway said he hardly thought the C.P.R. were quite. carrying out what was expected of them by refusing to assume responsibility for the safe carriage of goods to Okanagan Falls. Half a loaf, howr ever, was better than no bread, and he supposed there was no choice but to rest content with the concessions so far granted. Mr. Worgan asked whether Mr. Snodgrass could not be approached on the subject of his responsibility in the matter. Mr. Smailes said that if the C.P.R. would not assume responsibility, Mr. Cameron should be informed that he could not expect the merchants of Boundary to contract to patronise the C.P.R. under these circumstances. The Secretary promised to write to Mr. Cameron to this effect. Mr. Hallett drew the attention of the nieeting to the fact that there was as yet no collector of votes for the Bast riding of Yale. He had written to the Provincial Secretary on the subject and was awaiting a reply. Meanwhile he had" not sent away the names of those desirous of being placed on the voters' list. The chairman remarked on the fact that the Greenwood camp road was not being used by teamsters, and consequently the stages were oblig-ed to travel over the main trunk road. This road had been built at considerable expense and he thought it a pity that it was not used. The road could be opened first by a snow-plough, followed by hauling logs over it to beat down the snow. Mr. L,amb remarked that at the request of Mr. Rumberger, who complained to him that residents in Greenwood camp were obliged to walk to town to get their mail, owing to the stages ceasing to travel over the road, he had enquired why the road was not used bj* teamsters and was informed that the government road was preferred, being shorter and with fewer up-hill, grades. Mr. Breslauer thought it was impossible to freight over the Greenwood camp road; the distance was greater and freighters were unable to make the turns. . "Mr. Smailes said if the Association would send a four-horse team to assist in making the, road passable, Mr. Graaf had promised his own services and that of his hired man for the work. He moved that a committee be appointed to enquire into the Condition of the road and take steps to open it for traffic. Messrs. Kerr, Rendell and Galloway were asked to act as a. committee. Mr. Rendell explained that the timber by the road side on the summit was' 'mainly responsible for the. impassable condition of the road in spring. The road inspector should be asked to clear away this timber for 40 feet on each side of the road. Mr. Kerr said he would act upon this committee with pleasure if he was first shown where the funds were coming, from to carry out this proposed work. Mr. Galloway : That is for the committee to find out!. Mr. Breslauer asked if a statement ��� of the Association's liabilities had been prepared. Mr. Sansom (secretary) replied at some length, stating that the Association was perfectly able to pay all the debts incurred if members would pay their dues. He already had paid some of the bills against the Association out of his own pocket. He would sooner, he said,. pay money himself than go around dunning each individual member for his dollar. Mr. Nelson proposed that the names of members delinquent in their dues be read at the next nieeting. A discussion then followed regarding the printing of the Association's folder at Midway. Mr. Galloway explained that the local printers had refused the work. Mr. Black said that it had been considered preferable to have the folder printed as near home as possible. Mr. Lamb then stated that an estimate had been obtained from the Province Co. whereby at least $30 would have been saved and a far handsomer job issued ; that this was explained to Mr. Black at the previous meeting, who had promised to come down and talk it over the following day ; but that for reasons best known to himself he had taken the liberty, without calling the committee together, of sending away the work to Mr. Norris. A vote of thanks was tendered The Times proprietors for the free use of the room just vacated. Mr. Gordon moved, seconded by Mr. Breslauer, that the secretary be instructed to prepare a balance sheet, to be presented at the next meeting.��� Carried. ' '! There being no further business, the meeting then adjourned. *^*9t*9*Z>9+G*&*��>-9<9>+*9W-40***<a>'9+U>O<9>9<9>9-��>��<B 5 ��� T * V ��� A *J V a V Proprietors of the VERNON SAW, PLANING AND l l * l A I A V e A MOULDING MILLS _ Sash and Door Factoid at Vernon.

Miller, formerly of Rossland, has decided to open a tailoring establishment in Greenwood. Mr. Fritz Haussener sold two of his lots on Copper street, near the Windsor hotel, this week for $400 each. Messrs. G. Seymour & Co. botight one of the lots occupied by the Windsor hotel from Mr. Powell last week for $500. Messrs. Hain and L/imdy, of Midway, have arranged a partnership to engage in the business of general store-keepers. Mr. Hain left for the coast this week to purchase a stock. The call for subsciptions to defray the cost of retaining counsel, if found necessary, in Mr. Hood's interests, has been most liberally responded to in Greenwood and Anaconda. Mr. Leslie 'Hil.l left this week for Vernon to look after a hydraulic property owned by the syndicate near that place. The property has a very promising future. Mr. Hill expects to re-. turn within a fortnight's time. * Mr. Iy. K. Jacobson is erecting a two-storey building, 24x30, on Copper street, which will be opened as a restaurant. It is a; significant and noteworthy fact that of the new buildings now going up in the. town all are of the superior and substantial class. At Midway on Tuesday Mr. Parks, a placer miner working on Boundary creek, was charged with putting out poison without complying with the statutory regulations before doing so. The case was dismissed on the evidence of two witnesses,-Jolly Jack and his wife, who testified to the innocence of the,accused. Jolly Jack, charged with the same offence, pleaded guilty, stating that he had made his living for the last thirty years by poisoning coyotes. He was fined $2,���the amount due his wife and himself as witnesses in the Parks case. Mr. J. C. Haas returned during, the early part of the week from a visit to Northport. He held, he says, while there a conversation with one of the officials of the S. F. & N. R'y Co. who informed him that it was Mr. Corbin's intention to build a road to Boundary- at once from Northport utilising the bridge that is now being- constructed at that place across the Columbia river. Mr. Haas further stated that five hundred men were employed on the construction of the Trail-Robson branch of the Columbia & Western, and he was told on g-ood authority that directly this line was completed, work would be started on the construction of the section of the road towards Christina lake. Only 35,000 Brandon and Golden Crown treasury shares are being put on the market at present. Of these, Mr. G. H. Collins has the sale of 10,000. The shares are selling at 10c. and are already in great demand at that price. Work has been suspended for the time being on the Croner, owned by Messrs. Olson & Phelan, in Providence camp. A shaft was put down 14 feet showing up a quartz ledge eighteen inches wide.

Mrs. Keffer, who is a graduate of the same university at which her husband took his degree, has undertaken all Mr. Keffer's analytical work during his absence at Rossland. " Jack " Eucy returned from Rossland on Thusday. Mr. Guthrie, one of the first men to prospect in the Slocan, is staying at the Palace Hotel, and expects to remain at Anaconda for some time. The pamphlet issued by the Commercial Club this week has met with general approbation. A number of copies have already been distributed in Canadian and American cities, some being also sent to England. At the meeting of the Club on Wednesday, a letter was addressed to the Minister of Mines asking that the Provincial Mineralogist, Mr. Carlyle, be invited to visit and report on the Boundary Creek district at an early date. A committee was also appointed to ascertain the price of a suitable piano for the Club's use. It was decided that, at the next meeting members should deliver short speeches on" the "best method of advancing the Club's interests." Mr. Kelliher was ..elected to membership. ' . ' v \ />?:''��� British Capital and British Columbia. H .: Mr. G. T. Hodgson returned to Greenwood on Tuesday after spending;two months in England, and^ was- very warmly welcome^, back. Mr. Hodgson says that while/ British Columbia is much talked of in the Old^ Country the investing'public are^yet a bit chary rof risking'mohey'in the new gold fields of the West. As witness the recent failure to float, two much talked of British Columbia companies in Eondon the names of prominent men on the prospectuses notwithstanding. The probable reason for this is the slump in South Africans, which has temporarily-had. the effect of decreasing the extent of speculation in mining snares however promising the enterprise. Yet there is no question but that matters will right themselves in due course and that British capital will chiefly develop the mines of British Columbia. Both Mr. Digby, who purchased the Queen of Sheba, in Copper camp, last year, and Mr. Drucker, M.P., intend visiting; Boundarym at an early dkte. Mr. Drucker expects to leave England for Greenwood directly the present session of the Imperial House'closes. Highland Queen Consolidated. The necessary papers have been forwarded to Victoria giving notice of the incorporation of the Highland Queen Consolidated Mining Company, capital $1,000,000. The provisional trustees are Ji W. Penfield and J. Brightfelger, of Spokane, F. McEaine and C. E. Thomet, of Midway ; Mr. Thomet has also been appointed the company's manager. The company have acquired three properties, the Highland Chief, the Snowdrop, about two miles east of Midway, and the Big Windy, in Providence camp, all with good surface showings. Work is to be started immediately on the Snowdrop, and shortly on the other claims.- It is the intention of the company to apply for crown grants as soon as possible. The shaft on the Rambler, Pass creek, is down 35 feet. A sort of fault was encountered last week, but this was passed through and there is now a marked improvement in the appearance of the ore in the bottom of the shaft. *4��r t-gtr W%V v^W <4g* W$* W.

THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES, U. __ss GREATER GREENWOOD." It is to be hoped that Messrs. Sutherland & Wood, the owners of the Dundee mineral" claim, which is practically a part of the Greenwood townsite-, will see the advisability of having- the property surveyed into lots at an early date and placed on the market. Some of the finest building- sites in the valley are to be found on the ridges at the southern end of town, and now that the townsite company have but few lots to dispose of on the main streets of the original townsite, provision should be made in order that strang-ers coming- to Greenwood and proposing- to establish themselves in business may have every opportunity to do so. There is no reason why the town - should not grow in a southerly, as it undoubtedly will in a northerly, direction; in fact it has-been the general",belief that the two towns of Greenwood and Anaconda will eventually'merg-e into one la'rg-e business centre for the whole district, making' possible an economic system of local government by one civic corporation. This is a consummation devoutly to be wished. As a step in the rig-ht direction the residents of both Greenwood and Anaconda should call the attention of Mr. Norris, the government ag-ent at .Vernon, to the unsatisfactory state of the hig-hway between the two places. . At. a comparatively small expense a direct and level road could be laid off, connecting- Copper street at Greenwood with Butte avenue at Anaconda, necessitating- two small bridges over Boundary creek and avoiding the present serpentine course of the road. A Useful Publication. A new map of the Osoyoos district of Yale has just been completed by the Eands and Works department at Victoria. Though similar in appearance to the one issued in 1893, the new map gives more especial prominence and details of the mining country adjacent to the boundary. Christina lake is for the first time shown with some degree of exactness; Grand Forks and the camps up the North fork of Kettle river receive due prominence ; but it is that portion of the map showing the Boundary Creek district where the greatest change has been made. Where the map of 1893 showed merely a creek and a dotted trail " to Marcus," there are now shown towns, mining camps, claims and pre-emptions clear from Midway to Eong lake and Kimberley. The map was revised and brought up to date by local surveyors, and consequently is one of the most reliable issued by the department. Miners' Surface Rights. At Nelson last week Judge Forin gave a decision on the right to the surface of mineral claims which is of considerable importance. The case before him was an application on behalf of G. M. Sproat, part owner of the townsite of Sandon, for a receiver of the rents claimed to be due by C. K. Hammond, of the Slocan News Co. The judge refused the application upon the ground that a crown grant of a mineral claim gave no surface rights other than for mining purposes. He held that the holder could not eject an occupier from ground not required for mining purposes. He said further that if the moneys were ordered paid by Hani-; mond to a receiver, Sproat could not properly or legally claim them, and it was not very clear to him to whom they would ultimately go.

A day and night shift have been put on to work in the D. A. tunnel. The property is looking very well. A large deposit, of fire-clay of excellent quality has been discovered in the vicinity of the Rock Greek coal beds. Seven pack-horses literally hidden from sight under huge loads of charcoal were driven up to the No. 7 on Wednesday. A half-interest in the Blue Jay, near Vernon, recently bonded for $10,000, was sold by Mr. F. M. Kerby a few months ago for $25.
