'  The carpenters practically completed  their work at the Sunset smelter this  week and everything is now in readiness to receive the ore crusher and  sampler -which are daily expected to  arrive. The machinery was shipped  from the foundries in April but for  some unaccountable reason have been  delayed in transit.  The old pyritic smelter building- can  scarcely be recognized in the present  premises, so important are the changes  which have been made. A new railway trestle has been extended along  side and beyond the building, This  trestle has an elevation which permits  of ore bunkers underneath. The ores  from the bunkers pass directly into the  crusher without extra handling which  means a great saving in labor. Other  labor saving devices have been introduced. Some important improvements  have been made around the furnace.  The wooden floor has been removed  and an iron floor replaces it. Other  protections against fire have been introduced. A pumping station , has  been established at Boundary creek  aud a large force pump placed therein.  This can be used as an auxiliary to the  flume and will also prove effective iu  case ot fire.  The machinery has all been overhauled and placed in shape so that  when the sampler and crusher are  placed in position it is expected that  everything will run as smoothly as  clock work.  * In visiting the smelter, the first  thing that strikes one is the successful  way in which the various parts have  been constructed to avoid frequent  handling of ore or carrying it a long  distance. The ore cars will pass directly above the crusher into which the  ore passes by gravitation without  handling. From the crusher it passes  into the ore bins, convenient to the  furnace in a j similar way, so that the  least possible amount of labo~r will be  be required at this smelter.  The delay in securing the samplei  aud crusher makes it impossible to  state definitely when tne smelter will  be blown in but* it is safe to say that it  will noc be later than July 1st.  the "sad death of the late Capt. Howe,  who was superintendent at the time he  met his death, Mr. A. W. Boyd, the  old Superintend has been in charge of  the works, and under his direction.  After the completion of a station and  sump at bottom of the shaft, a depth  of ISO ft., a drift was run in a northerly direction for twenty six feet,  when the ore body was encountered,  the vein is between three and four feet  wide well mineralized, free gold being  plainly .visible, and in parts quite a  quantity of the yellow metal.  It may be rembered that last year,  Mr. Boyd openpd up a body of ore in  the winze, about 150ft.' to the north of  the present workings. Since the Company has been re- organized, (the stock  being made assessable), in order to  give the necessary funds for pushing  development, with the -very satisfactory results now attained. Mr. Boyd  has been connected with the working  of the property for some time and has  thoroughly studied the breaks and  faults in the vein, he is now satisfied  he has in sight over 1000 feet of the  vein without a break and is most sanguine of the ultimate success of the  mine.'  The strike has caused no little stir  in the cam p. where times have been  for some time very vuiet, and it is  hoped that the good showing on the  Waterloo, may lead to work being resumed on Ihe Fontenoy, whose sideline is little more than one hundred  feet east of the first named claim.  #-�����*##���������#���* �����>���*## #��:##.*-**#*#��#  *  ft  ��  *��  ���a  �����  �����  *  ���a  ��  ��  ��  ��  ��  ��  ft  ft  ��  ft  ��  e  ft  ��  ft  ft  ��  Rich Waterloo  Strike.  Camp McKinnkv, B. C, May  22.���(Special to the Times.)���A  rich -strike was made at the ISO  foot level on Waterloo today. A  drift on this level ran into a  vein of rich ore in which the free  gold can he distinctly seen. The  vein is fully three feet in width  and is widening out.

Since  "After thirty years experience in the  mining camps of the west, I can con-  tjdeiilly say that I never saw more  promising ground than the ridge between Twin creek and Providence  creek immediately below Greenwood"  said an old prospector this week. "I  have examined the ground thioughly  and it affords a most promising field  for one who is looking for high grade  propositions The veins are narrow  but they are numerous and well defined and it cannot be a difficult matter  to lind high grade ore in any part of  the hill. I cannot understand why  people should be anxious, to rush 'to  Thunder Mountain and elsewhere  when right at home is ground that is  as promising as anything in that much  advertised district. I was in the  Thunder Mountain country years ago  and know what I am talking about."  This opinion is shared by a good  many people and is being confirmed  by recent development work. The  Providence is looking better each day  and Mr. Fowler has a large quantity  of high grade ore ready for shipment.  The same is true of the Elkhorn.  Messrs. Smith and Longly arc getting  out considerable ore and a shipment  will be mde to the local smelter next  week.  Bob. Donagin   has  a claim up Twin  creek,   immediately   above    the   Gold  Finch.    The claim is rather unique in  as much  as it  has a  spring of clear  sparkling water from which  there is a  large   and   steady   flow  all  the   year  round.      Mr.   Donagin   thought     the  water  would  prove valuable since he  believed that the people of Greenwood  would prefer pure spring water to that  of Twin creek.    While waiting for the  city to buy  his water he thought he  would look for high   grade ore, the  claim   being in  the  high  grade belt.  He started work last week  and succeeded  in uncovering a ledge which  looks  as promising as anything that  has been found in the camp.  C. Scott Galloway and Peter Lover  are busy hunting for a ledge nearer  the city.   They are doing some surface  They have not succeeded in striking a  ledge yet but are hopeful that they  will do so.  There are several people after a  lease on the Gold Bug one of D. W.  Holdbrook's properties. Mr, Holbrook  is away in the Thunder Mountain  country. Several letters have been  sent to him and it is possible that one  of the applicants may secure a lease  on this ground. The G. A. R. and  other properties of the B. C M. & M.  Co., and also well worth looking for  high grade ore.  EHOLT ECHOES.  From our own correspondent.  While we have not been making  much of a splurge of late, our town  has not been standing still by any  means, Quite recently Mr. Kaiser the  proprietor of the Commercial Hotel,  completed two fine dwellings  on Barclay ave. and is at .present  erecting a very nice residence on Columbia avenue, to be occupied by W.  Woodhouse, who has lately come from  Trail, to take charge of the C. P. R*  shops.  Messrs. Paulson & Bilton, also in  the employ of the C. P. R. are building residences for themselves. In fact  this place is rapidly becoming a railway town, whereas this time last year  it was purely a mining town, so that  when the mines in this vicinity, such  as the B. C, Rathmullen, Oro Denoro,  Emma, & etc., start working again we  shall be in a very enviable position,  being both a railway and mining  center.  The people of Eholt are very much  dissapointed and disgusted at the  escape of the prisoners from tne Greenwood jail, last Monday night. 'Mr.  Torney and Judge Rendell spent considerable time and money in securing  the arrest of these men, and then for  them to simply walk out of prison, and  across the line is very annoying. The  negligence which has been displayed  somewhere should be certainly remedied.  On Sunday morning last another  robbery was committed here, but the  the robber made his escape before he  could be arrested. The want of a pro-  vincal policeman is greatly felt, and  we cannot but think that if Mr.  Darraugh was stationed af Eholt, instead of Phoenix it would be a much  more satisfactory arrangement' than  at present.  Mr. Evans, in doing' assessment  work on the "May", in Sriimmit camp  struck what appears to be a very good  grade of copper ore. This claim adjoins" the B. C. on the'East'ahd isdis-  tant 2 miles from Eholt,  Mr. Sweeny of the Eholt Trading Co  has gone on atrip to the coast.  PASTOR LEAVING  A special meeting of the Kootenay  Presbytery was held in the Phoenix  Presbyterian church on Tuesday the  20th. inst, to consider the Rev. J.  Millar's resignation. There were  present Rev. D. Wright of Nelson,  Rev. J. Robertson of Grand Forks,  Rev. W. Calder of Columbia, Rev. J.  Millar of Phoenix, and Rev. Dr. Mac-  Rae of Greenwood. After Mr. Millar  and the commissioners from the congregation had been heard Presbytery  most regretfully accepted the resignation.  On the first of Iune Mr. Millar  preaches his farewell sermon. The  pulpit will be declared vacant on the  8th of that month.  Dr. MacRae was appointed moderator of the vacant confregation.  Rey. Mr. Millar goes to Calgary to  supply for Dr.-Herdman during June.  Great regret is expressed -on all hands  at the departure of this highly esteemed clergyman who during his residence in Phoenix made warm friends  notonly in his own congregation, but  among the residents of Phoenix and  Greenwood as well.  IJ  ft  L,L  VERY  Two   Provincial   Prisoners  Make Good Their Escape.  U  Liberated by an Accomplice From the  Outside.  In the quaint language of officialdom  A Court of Assize' Nisi Prius, Oyer  and Terminer, and General Gaol  Delivery will be holden in the City of  Greenwood, at eleven o'clock in the  forenoon, on Monday the 19th day of  May." [The general Jail delivery took  place in a very informal way and possibly an effort would have been to meet  the other requirements of the notice in  the same manner had they been written  in plain every day English. On Saturday last Court Stenographer Brydges  reached here and Constable Young  brought over two prisoners from  Nelson to stand their trial at the court  on Monday. They were Hayes and  Stewart charged with' burglarizing  Torney's store at Eholt.1 The learned  Judge was delayed and notice was sent  to registrar McMynn to adjourn the  the court until Friday of this week  which was done"  -Now the two prisoners should have  been kept in close confinement in the  cells at the Provincal Police jail, but  there is a rather congested state of  affairs down there. The building is  small and there are no less than four  officials with offices there. There is  William Grahame McMynn, who has  offices to numerous to mention; F. M.  Elkins sheriff, James S, Birnie, clerk,  and Geo. Cunningham, deputy mining  recorder and police constable.  None of these gentlemen are too  greatly blessed, with ayordupois, in  fact outside, of Mr. Cunningham who  is fast getting fat and good natured,  the bunch hover round the ragged edge  of tenuity. But even thin men jtake  up space and when four officials and  their desks are placed in the jbuilding  there is very little space left, save the  cells.

Wanted to know the whereabouts of  David Henderson of Greenwood, B. C.  Last heard of December, 1901. Reward  given by communicating with T. H,  Henderson, Fairview, B. C.  When every other nook and corner was  filled, the cells had to be used and they  have been converted into rather unsatis  factory vaults for the preservation of  state papers. A larger and more  suitable government building is of  course needed but that is another  subject.  When constable Young arrived with  his prisoners, the Province had . no  place to keep them and the City lock  up was placed at the disposal of Ihe  Provincal officers.  The City cells are evidently not  built to keep prisoners. Greenwood  being certaintly an extremely law  abiding town, it was doubtless considered that any kind of cell would do  in the City and long before this  the government would have built a  strong jail to keep the bad men that  came from Eholt, and other uncivilized  places. The City cells have a unique  record, and any prisoner who remained  there for more than 24 hours was considered a very dull fellow, while he  who staid 'confined until committd to  a common jail was looked upon as a  veritable chump.  But Hayes and Stewart were placed  in the city cells on Saturday afternoon  because there was no other place to  put them. The bars were placed in  position, doors were securely locked  and Provincial and city police solemnly I  resolved that no more prisoners would  escape from the city cells.'  Alex Currie city driver and special  polceman was deputized to feed the  prisoners. He did so on Sunday  and Monday and early Tuesday morning he walked in with the cheery*"well  boys here's your breakfast. He unlocked the doors, let down bars and  marched boldly into the cells, but no  boys were   there.

It is exempt from toil nicipal and  Provincal taxation for ten yeard, a.nd  there after g-ivcs 2 per cent of the gioss  eamirig-s in lieu of taxation. Th*c government controls the rates, and the  agreement is void if work is not s'arted  before September 1903.  In the case of MacKenzie & Mann's  road' the subsidy is placed at $50<H) per  mile, conditions otherwise are similar  to the Coast-Kootenay road. Head office for the Pacific diviaofl is to "be at  Victoria,  The opposition regard it as a gieat  victory and a justification of their obstruction of the estimates, inasmuch as  the caBh subsidy was increased but  very little, while the entire and enormous land subsidy was saved to the  province.  Obstruction by the oppoosition, and  Joseph Martin's desire to save at least  the tatters of the platform of the recent convention at Vancouver, combined to force the government to abandon its policy of giving enormous land  grants to railways. Immediately before "the Victoria bye-e'ection the  government announced .that it had  arrang-ed with McKenzie & Mann for  the construction of the Canadian Northern railway.  The ffoverument intended to ask  parliment to ratify an agreement  which gave this railway a cash subsidy of $+.800 for a portion of the road  and $4,000 a- mile for the balance, also  20.000 acres of land per mile for the  road through B. C.  The government held this out as a  bait' to the Victoria electors and they  took the bait. The opposition strong*-  ly opposed this arrangement, claiming  that the subsidies were exhorbitant  and that as MeKenzie aMann were in  any event going to build to the coast,  there was no good reason why such  large subsidies should be granted to  induce them Lto do so. They .twitted  Martin, and his supporters on having  deserted the liberal convention policy  of opposition to land grants to railways. When the government announced having entered into an agreement with Mclyean Bros, to build the  Coast' Kootenay road, the contractors  to receive ^public aid to the extent of  $4,000 dollars per mile and 1,000,000  acres of land, the opposition in the  house, had pointed out that the government had received a bonaflde offer  from the V. V. &U. last year to build  the road" for a cash subsidy of $4,000  a mile without a land grant, and announced that they would refuse supply  to be voted until the objectionable  railway legislation was withdrawn.  Two of .the opposition members  Helmcken and Hawyard deserted their  party, and went over to the government. This gave the government 20  supporters in the -house counting  Martin and his three supporters, and  leaving the opposition with* 16.  At least two of the government  supporters viz, C, D. Ciifford and Price  Ellison, were dissatisfied, the former  because promised aid to a northern  ���railway -Vt-as-not-forthcoming,-and the  latter because the goverbment failed  to provide aid for the Midway aVernon  road. .The government then introduced a bill giving" aid to Clifford's  road but Martin declared himself.  He told the government he was opposed to land grants and could not  support the railway policy of the  government. A dead-lock was the le-  sult. No progress was made in the  house for two weeks.  Ou Ttesday last the government  announced the withdrawal'of its rail,  legislation and the introduction of a  measure which eliminated land g rants  altogether. It authorizes the gover-  nor-in-couucil to aid the -Vancouver  and Coast-Kootenay Railway Company, or any other railway, by giving  $4,000 per mile cash from Vancouver  to Midway, not exceeding 230 miles.

'-Times were never  better iu the East than they are at present" lie continued.' Money w*es never  more plentiful, aiid those who have it  are eag*er to invest it. They have been  leaving British Columbia mining-properties alone because it had beeu continually dinned into their ears that  conditions were bad here, and they  would not have a g-ood run for their  money. They have switched to cool  speculations, timber and about everything- else that offered them an opportunity-to speculate with their surplus  money;" ;'. .  "Although eager for iu vestments;;  but little Eastern money is being* invested in British Columbia mines.  The fault to a large' extent lies with  ourselves- We have developed into a  body of chronic grumblers. This is  peculiarly noticeable in traveling'-'on  the railway. In one car you will lind'  a body of men damning capital,  while in the next car are capitalists  cursing the unjust system:of taxation,  the high rate of wages and labor  unions. Now all this combines to  frighten capital away from the Pro:  vince.  "But I did not find the feeling,  against investment in the Province  was strong. In conversation with  business men in Montreal and Toronto,  'all the arguments that are being used  against this Province were advanced  but they were anxious to hear the  other side, in fact they appeared eager  for an excuse that would justify them  iu investing their money here. They  have plenty of money lying idle and  if a fair opportunity presented itself  they would willingly invest it.  "It is interesteng to watch-the way  the investing public of. the east follow  each other. Coal caught last spring  and anything that looked like coal  would find ready takers. Timber too  became popular and there is a hot skirmish for timber speculations.

During the early days of the  Fairview camp a v larg*e amount of  money was expended, expensive plants  were installed, but neither work nor  plants were adopted to the character of  the ore and loss and dissappointment  . -were the result. - With new managers  profiting by the'1 bitter experience of  their predecessors, there is now every  assurance that Fairview will* occupy  a leading place among* the mining  camps of the "province. r - ������ *.  '���- ^ On. the'-properties of the New Fair-  view Corporation, a larg-e amount'of  construction work has been done, under  the-superintendence of Charles Oaten-  burr. The shaft on the "Stemwinder  has been sunk an additional 25 feet in  order to put-in a large sump and ore  pocket to receivejhe larg-e quantity of  'ore" which  the. third level .will supply.  ' Ore chutes ate now in ior over 300-feet  in the^ different levels and all preparatory work well advanced- in * order to  enable" the company to extract large  quantities of ore when necessary.  Twenty more stamps have been purchased ane are being placed alongside  of the 26 stamps which are now in operation. This ���> work will take about 60  days," when ISO tons of ore  per day  ' will be treated,' A cyanide plant is  being* erected foi the treatment ot con-  concentrates of which there are over  200 tons on hand.  Mr. Ostenburg, the superintendent  says the ore can be treated for a total  cost of less than Si. 75 per ton and  there are thousands of tons in sight  running from $4 to $6 per ton.  The Domonion Consolidated Mines  Co. Ltd, are developing their properties, the Flora, Western Elill and Virginia by a series of tunnels. Thestock  of this company is being- eagerly purchased in the east, and a large amount  of capital is available foi the development of their properties.  The company  ���have als6~secliredlnterest it*rthe"i>ower  at Okanogan Falls and work will caxly  be commenced there with a view to installing a large power plant capable of  furnishing ample power to all the  mines in the district. <-  The company has a capital of 5500,-  000 divided into 2,000,000 shares of 25  cents each. The officers are Geo. H.  Maurer, Montreal, President. L,. W.  Shafford,Secretary-treasurer, Fairview  and the following are the directors: John R. Barber,M. P, P. Toronto,  "W. J. Bickell, Toronto. I. Oppenheimer. .Vancouver; Steplien Ntagott  Fairview; _A. jE. Nelson, Fairview,  John Love Fairview.  The stock of the company isfa-lling  freely at par on the eastern exchanges.  Iu 1899, T. H. Trekeway, the well  known mining engineer made a report  on the properties of the company in  which he pointed out that the vein on  the properties is well defined and fully  18 feet in width. Samples taken from  a 27 foot shaft on the footwall, gave  an average return of $7 in gold, SI.35  in silver, making a total of S8.35 a ton  while the balance of the vein g<ive a  return of $2 in gold and* 70 cents in  silver, so that S5.25 may be considered  a fair average for the full width of the  vein.  The Dominion Consolidated Mine  Company., is in the hands of conservative busness men who have the confidence of the investing public in the  the east and with proper.ies of sueh  promise, there,is no good reason why  further operation of the company  should not be in every way successful.
