THE KETTLE VALLEY LINE Will Be Built to the South in Near Future. WILL RUN BRANCH TO MINING CAMP Spur Will Be Run From the Coldwater River to Steamboat Mountain The Kettle Valley railway is planning to link up Penticton and southern Okanagan and the Similkameen, and the latter district with the coast, by a system of branch lines. The company will apply to parliament next session for an act changing its name from The Kettle River Valley Railway Company, to the Kettle Valley Railway Company, the name by which it is now commonly known, and authorizing it to construct a branch from Penticton by the most feasible route to a point on the international boundary at or near the shore line of Osoosos lake. This will connect Penticton with the rich district directly south, and will make the town an important distributing point, as all produce, etc., destined for the coast or other parts of the province from southern Okanagan and the Similkameen will pass through Penticton. The application to parliament also provides for the construction of two. other branches. One ot them is from a point on the company's line already authorized, which is understood to be either Merritt or Penticton, by the most direct route to or near Allison or Penticton. The' third branch is v from the Coldwater river to the Fraser riyer and to Steamboat Mountain mining camp. By these branches the Kettle Valley railway company will provide transportation facilities for southern Okanagan, Similkameen- and Nicola, and will enter the list as a formidable rival of the V., V. & E. railway. Training. for Mining Men. The new stamp-milling and concentrating plant of the School of Mines at the University of Washington is now in readiness for the short course for practical mining men, which begins on January 4th, aud lasts three months. The mines building has been newly equipped with assay furnaces, additional balances, power-driven sampling equipment, drafting tables and all modern laboratory conveniences. No examinations are required for entrance to the short course and the studies are so arranged that any person interested in mining may follow them, regardless of his previous training. There are no charges, except for books and materials actually used. A full description of the course may be obtained from Dean Mil- nor Roberts, University of Washington, Seattle. Instruction is given by seven different departments under the following subjects: The mineral industry, mining, fire' assaying, metallurgy, chemistry, mineralogy, geology, mining law, surveying, forge, and field trips to mines, mills and smelters. Boy Scouts I. The resignation of R. G, Hargreaves as Scoutmaster of our Boy Scouts, places that corps in an inactive condition at present, and greatly to be regretted by all those wbo witnessed the splendid work perlormed by them at the late exhibition. After much la- borous work, self denying of pleasure, which Scoutmaster Hargreaves could have been utilized to his own pleasure, but willingly given to the betterment of the boys. It is too bad that this friction has occurred, and all interested will feel pleased if it can be removed and the Boy Scouts well to the front again with renewed vigor Assistant Scoutmaster Rev. M. F. Hilton will take the place of Scoutmaster, till some person will come forward and take this position. TRAGEDY OF A STAMP Canadian Twelve - Penny Black Had Career. In the year 1851 a 12 penny black Canadian postage stamp was printed bv the government of Ottawa. The public did not regard this sombre issue with favor so few were issued. One of these stamps was sent to the Hamilton postoffice, where it was sold to an old gentleman, who said it was a shame to print the Queen's picture on a stamp that might be handled by profane hands. Tenderly the gentleman put it on a parcel, sending it to a friend in the United States. Here, in the waste basket, it lay for some time until it was found by a boy who had started stamp collecting. He quickly transferred it to his album After a time despairing of getting a good collection, and his fever somewhat abating, he sold them to a dealer. The new. owner on looking at the catalogue, found that what he had paid $5 for was worth $25. Accidentally this stamp was slipped into a 25-cent packet, and sent to a dealer residing in Hamilton. When the latter opened the packet, he was astonished to find such a valuable stamp, and being honest, wrote his friend to inform him of what had happened, offering him $1,200 for it. The offer was accepted and the stamp again changed hands. By this time the stamp had increased in value, and not a few came from a distance to look at the treasure. One day an English nobleman, who, through a friend, had heard of the stamp, offered $1,500, which offer was accepted. The English lord, falling in love with an American heiress, and wishing to gain the favor of her brother, presented him with the stamp as a token of his esteem. Here, in a new and luxurious American home, it came to a sad end, for one day the maid, by mistake, swept the stamp, which had accidentally fallen out of the album, into the fire. In an instant the stamp, which thousands had heard of and longed for, went up in smoke to the broad blue sky, leaving not a trace behind. The Bank of England While there is no perfect Bafety for life or property in this world, measures adopted by the Bank of England to protect its treasure against the depredations of robbers exhibit almost the limit of human ingenuity. Its outer doors are now so finely balanced that a clerk, by pressing a knob under his desk, can close them instantly, and they cannot be opened again except by a special mechanism. The bullion department of this great British banking institution is nightly submerged in several feet of water by the action of machinery. In some of the London banks the bullion departments are connected with the manager's sleeping rooms, and an entrance cannot be effected without setting off an alarm near this person's head. If, in the Bank of England, a dishonest official during day or night, should take even one from a pile of a thousand soverigns, the whole pile would instantly sink and pool of water take its place, besides letting every person in the establishment know of the theft. Organs Transposed. One of the most remarkable cases in the annals of medical research as regards human anatomy came under the notice of the medical faculty of Queen's university at Kingston recently. While demonstrating to a class of second year medical students, how to operate for appendicitis, Dr. Richardson discovered the location of the organs of his subject were completely at variance with the location of the organs of the normal man. The heart was on the right side, the appendix, instead of being on the right side, was located in a corresponding position oh the left side, and all the other organs on the side opposite to that on which they are found in the make-up of the normal man. The phenonmenon is the first case in which the whole internal system ot a man has been found misplaced. The body is that of a man who in life was of strong physique. Death was due to a feyer and not of any organic trouble. The body was that o�� a convict who died some time ago in the penitentiary. Churches Foster Matrimony A new branch of instruction has been opened in the churches in St. Louis, Me., that <>f a department of matriony." The purpose of the new institution will be to bring; about acquaintances which may lea<l to happy marriages, to train youn<r men and women to understand and appreciate the duties and responsibilities of the married, state, and to prevent the sort of marriages which comes to an end on default day with the words, 'decree for plaintiff.* The old fashioned church social or oyster supper used to be a rallayinK place, but is not scientific enough' to suit modern experts. These gatherings are for the purpose of hearing a lecture, but opportunity for the ynung folks to get acquainted at the luncheon, which will intervene between the meeting and the evening church service. Oysters. cr.ibs, smrlts, r��lc. rue served at 'the Windsor hotel cafe and dining mom, and i-o ;>retty slick and rot at all h:��rd to take. Ouite a trea, try them.

Such are our thoughts and wishes, for November 30th was St. Andrew's Day. the Patron Saint of the northermost Kingdom of Great Britain. And who was St. Andrew, and what his history? He was born in Bethsaida and was brother to St. Peter. He had the honor of being the first apostle to find Christ, and to do the missionary work of bringing others to the MesBiah. Stratocles had been cured by him of a dangerous disease. Oge- as called upon him to denounce his faith in Christ, but rather than do this, he suffered martyrdom on the cross His cross was formed of two pieces of timber crossing one another in the form of the letter X. To this he was tied, and on it lingered for two days. Certain of his relics were brought to Scotland -**in the 4th century by St. Regulus, and since that time St. Andrew has been recognized as its Patron. He is also the Patron of the most noble and the most ancient Order of the Thistle, the Scottish Order of Knighthood. He is the Patron of Russia, and the Order of St. Andrew is the principal Russian Order of Knighthood. And lastly he is the Patron of the Order of the Golden Fleece, founded by Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy, A. D., 1429, and now belonging to the Austrian Empire.

We have not the least doubt that if the government would clear the land and giye it to settlors that it would be rapidly taken tip. It would be still more rapidly taken up if the government would build houses and barns for the settlers, and even more rapidly if they would put the necessary number of horHes and cattle upon such farms, and possibly if they would furnish each farm house with a phonograph and set up a moving picture show on every section, the inrush of settlers would be quite rapid. The nnlv difficulty about Discussing the question of local option which is at present the live issue in Saskatoon, Alta., the Pioneer of that city says very sensibly, "We are not possessed of any large amount of confidence in the value of local option as a means of checking the evils of the drink traffic. We are inclined to think, as with some other evils of the day, that what is wanted is more character and less law; more good ethics and less personal interference." MINING EDITORIALS. reality investments. British Columbia offers the mining investor one of the best fields in the world for legitimate use of his capital in profitable development enterprises. While the mining industry of British Columbia appears to be taking oh new life, and enlisting the investment of new capital, there nfiver was a time in the the history of the Province when the public require to be more on their guard against wildcat promotions. The appearance of these regrettable accompaniments of mining development is one of the surest indications >of returning prosperity. There are lots of good, sound, legitimate investments in the mining sections of the Province, but somehow there are always, and in every country, unscrupulous promoters who would rather offer the public some rotten proposition, probably because there is more money in it, than devote their time to the flotation of of legitimate projects. I MINES AND MINING 1 « o The Frst Thought Mine at Orient, Wash., is owned by P. Burns & Co., Ltd., the British Columbia operators, and is under the management of Alex Sharp, M. K. The mine is situated on the east side of the Kettle river, three miles northeast from Orient, on the Great Northern railway. The mine has been producting for the past five years. Thirty men are employed, and present production is about 50 tons a day, shipped to Trail smelter. Nov. were as follows: Granby mines, 18,446 tons; Jackpot, 808 tons; Mother Lode, 5,998 tons; No. 7, 95 tons; Rawhide, 3,000 tons; Snowshoe, 2,578 tons. Those whose judgement is usually accurate predict that the copper metal will sell up to 14 cents before July 1. From the IX C. Mining Record. There ar« several ways of improving the ventilation of an adit until a raise has been made oi Complaints have been make to us of the indifference with which r,he directors of some companies, especially those organized ostensibly for mining development, regard their duties and responsibility to the shareholders with whose interests they are entrusted. For instance, in the case of companies holding a bend, on a property, the bond has been allowed to lapse, and the shareholders have lost their assets apparently without an effort on the part of the directors to protect them, and certainly without the shareholders haying been called together, the facts laid before them, and their wishes ascertained and consulted as to the assets behind the organization being allowed to disappear without the shareholders being given an opportunity of protecting their rights. This is a discreditable state of affairs and there should be some way of making directors responsible for and liable to the shareholders for such dereliction of moral, if not legal duty. doing these things is to lind the compressor installed. A pipe of money. But speaking seriously, j WOod or metal, say ten inches in diameter, may be carried well up it is absurd to suggest that the government can engage iu a policy of land-clearing and then give tbe cleared laud to settlers. The political union of the state of Maine with Canada is advocated by the Charlestown Daily Guardian, which says, "It is high time that the statesmen of Canada give serious consideration to the possibility, to use no stronger term, of admitting the state of Maine to Canada." A glance at the map is sufficient to show that Maine belongs geographically to Canada, rather than to the United States. Being now a foreign country, it is to some extent also an obstacle to the right development of our great transportation system?, while at the same time, the state is shut out from development. It will be remembered that the executors of Miss Nightingale's property were unable to accede to the widely expressed desire that her remains should be accorded a public funeral, and the reason is found in the following clause of her will. 'T give my body for dissection or post mortem examination for the purpose ot medical science, and I request that the directions about my funeral given by me to my uncle, the late Samuel Smith, he observed. My original request that no memorial ■whatever should mark the place where lies my 'mortal coil.' I much desire this, but should the to the face, and the outer end extended upward like a chimney, thus drawing in fresh and exhausting the foul air. The current may be reversed by placing a triangular sail over the top of the pipe, and converging to it, adjustable to catch the wind as its direction changes. Or, a furnace may be built at the mouth of the adit, being constructed of rocks plastered with mud, and fitted with a pipe for a chimney, the pipe from the tunnel entering below the. grate. Start a fire, close the door, and the draft created in the intake pipe draws the foul air out of thc adit, fresh air rushing in to take its place. Discussing indifferent company management, a contemporary properly remarks: "Where information is denied an investor or intending investor the wise thing for him to do is to get out if he is in, or keep out if he is thinking of getting in." \L W. Gilman, general manager of the Canadian Rand company, has just completed an inspection of the company's branches in B. C. Granby is now earning at the rate rate of about $50,000 monthly, or over $4 a share annually on its stock. The company has no indebtedness, and its cash, copper in process and other quick assets now aggregate over Si, 000,000. The Crow's Nest Pass Coal company, >» which Granby is a very large stockholder, resumed dividends three months ago with a payment of $1 per share. A second dividend of like amount has just been declared. It understood that Granby's income from this source will amount to between $40,000 and $50,- 000 annually. At the Greenwood-Phoenix bore the work is going on steadily with a force of 22 men. Two 3.}--in. rock drills, operated by a 550-cu. ft. air compressor are employed. To Destroy Stumps. The process of Prof. Sparks, which it is the intention of the management of ! the Oregon and Washington railroad -to reduce to pamphlet form for the purpose of bringing it to the attention of proposed settlers from the east, provides for an excavation around the stump, filling the latter with cinders, covered with gravel or cracked rock, on which is smeared fuel oil, covering this latter with kindling and setting it on fire, after which it is covered with clay in such a manner as not to allow the heat to escape. Any number of stumps can be provided for, and the time required for eradication averages from two to three weeks. There is one man in the United States who has perhaps heard more women's set'rets than anyxother man or woman in the country.

There is no cleaner or more profitable pursuit in life than mining, when in the hands of men of responsibility and integrity. Everv dollar raised from the mine and added to the wealth of the nation comes without the injury to fellowmen resulting from competitive trade and industry, which so often thrive on the misfortunes of others. If an investor in a mine would have his prospective investment valued and reported on bv a reputable mining engineer, and followed his advice, just as he would have a valuation made of a prospective mortgage investment, he would find that nine times out of ten he would make more money out of the mining investment, than in the case of mortgages or Italian workmen in America sent sixty million dollars to Italy last year.

Returning from his day's work Crippen found her awaiting ,him untidy, jealous and exacting. He also found that she drank, a failing of which he had a great Phorror. 'On her return from America i she boasted of a rich man who had offered to provide for her and threw in her husband's teeth a certain American who professed to love her. "For some weeks before January 31, he had but one thought, how to get rid of his wife. She suffered from indigestion, for which she was taking tablets containing bismuth and coated with sugar. Throughout January she was more trying and troublesome even than usual. Crippen's patience become exhausted.

Mackenzie King, minister of labor, were called upon by officers of the Dominion trades and labor congress and leaders of various international unions of Canada. The object of the deputation was to present resolutions adopted at the annual congress at Ft. William. The deputation was headed by William Glockling of Toronto, president of the congress, and included A. Verville, M, P. P.; T. G. O'Donohue and M. P. Draper, secretary. The resolutions of the congress which were presented to the premier will be taken into his consideration. The most important were as follows: "That the trades and labor congress is opposed to the enactment of a compulsory arbitration law. "That steps should be taken to arrange for an international peace conference at which an attempt should be made to establish a universal policy of opposition to international warfare. "That it is the unanimous desire of the working classes of Canada that there should be federal legislation regarding cooperation in order to save them from the clutches of capital. "That Provisional antomy should be conseryed. "That the age of children eligible for employment should be raised to sixteen years. ���'That there should be legislation making compulsory the weekly payment of wages in cash and in cases where employes are discharged or where the employe leaves the service of his employer, all wages due must, be paid within 24 hours, the employer being held responsible for expenses consequent upon his failure to comply with the law properly." Says the Montreal Witness: "History will justify Sir Wilfrid Laurier, and the broad spirit and direction of his statementship, but in the meantime true Canadians of every nationality should uphold him, with redoubled energy, against the attack of men who would, above all, overthrow his good work in the promotion of good will and mutual understanding between the races."

The wide opening saves you work, because you can use wood that you would have to saw and split to get through the narrow, shallow fire-box openings of ordinary wood furnaces. Instead of making the fuel ^mmmmmaasaaaam fit the door, the Magnet door is made to fit the fuel. It is just as easy to get the ashes out of a Magnet as it is to put fuel in; because the opening of the ashpit is just as generous as the fire-box opening.

A tall, well-built man, with dark hair, closely trimmed beard, calm, observant eyes, gentle, and with thu case and polish of a fine stock intensified by the culture that comes from travel���this is .Sir Gilbert Parker, Canada's great novelist. In the famous city of (Quebec he was born in IStJ'J, the son of an officer ii��ihe Royal Artillery and the descendant of many generations of fighting mt&i. Ji seemed natural that he, too, should woo thu cannon, but he had his etfe iii^he cassock and was educated lor the church. He was ordained u deacon but his train of I thought was switched off the clerical track when he began to'lecture on English literature at Trinity College, Toronto. In 1SSG he went to Ausf-alia for his health, and as one of the editors of tlio "Sydney Herald" had a roving commission to study the South Sea Islands and their people. In his three and a half years in Oceanica he broadened in mind and grew more sturdy in body; he wrote and lectured, became interested in tlie sfage and with wide-open eyes saw life under new conditions. The literary harvest uf this period was an adaptation of Goethe's " Faust," produced in Sydney, another play "Tlie Vendetta," and two books of travel. Then lie went to Kngland. and his real literary genius had its first outcropping in his works of fiction. His remarkable short stories "Pierre and his People," opened up the literary dark continent of the Hudson Bay country. They were fresh, crisp, vigorous and virile tales; the held was new, the treatment masterly, the character drawing vital, real and sympathetic, and the open-air atmosphere bracing and tingling aa a cold-water plunge. They had the same note of surcness, tlie same iiii<|iiesti<>[ied revelation of the coining of a great writer, that marked the debut of Kipling in his "Plain Tales from the Hills." Most authors have a special sentimental fondness for their first-born, but Sir Gilbert bought back and suppressed his first novel "The Chief Factor," after more than fifty thousand copien had been sold. Of his twenty or more books, perhaps "The Right of Way" has inspired most discussion and added most to his prestige and popularity. * This famous novelist, journalist, lecturer, poet, dramatist and member of Parliament, lives in London, in the aristocratic seclusion of Carlton House Terrace, a short street closed at one end, so that the rumble of traffic comes only like tho surge of the sea heard at a distance. In a study on the fourth floor Sir Gilbert does his literary work. Success, which turns the beads of many of fortune's favorites, simply gives new poise, ease and dignity to qthers. Simple, strong and unaffected, Sir Gilbert carries with an unconscious grace the honors he so justly w..m, 2otcxed nicflrrHiii; to JUt of tic Parliament of Canada, in tio j ear 1SO0, ty W. C.

Fifty Years the Standard GREENWOOD GRIST Items of Interest Picked Up Here and There For The Times Readers* Sir Wilfrid at Sixty-Nine Many of us were treated to a little surprise when we read tbat the Premier, Sir Wilfrid Laurier has passed the 69th milestone of life on Sunday. For many years tlie Liberal leader's locks have been gray, but we have become so familiar with his upright figure, his well poised head, his sonorous voice, his tremendous energy, his personal magnetism, his abundant power of brain and heart, that we often find ourselves thinking of him as still almost a young man. Marty times "the imminent retirement of Laurier" has been reported by his opponents, but he has tired out younger and ppparently stronger men, and seems to fie entering his 70tb year "as fresh as a daisy, aud twice as natural." This is no doubt partly due to the plainness and temperateness of his manner of living:, and partly due to his sunny and cheerful disposition, for there is no doubt that tin? wise man was right when he said that "a merry heart doeth good like medicine.��� Montreal Witness.

Armstrong is one of the men who holds strongl}' to the opinion that old Carinoo will yet come into its rights. Cariboo, in his opinion, has been robbed of all that could be easily taken, but little has been done to, develop the great ore bodies that contributed their fragments to the placer claims. Mr. Armstrong- has boen investigating in tbe vicinity of Barkerville and has taken several claims on quartz ledge's in a section that has been walked over, driven over, and even lived over. There wan a small Chinatown over one of his claims. Mr. Armstrong is convinced that hexhas discovered one of the mother lodes of Cariboo. One of these contributed to make Cariboo one of the richest placer fields in the world's history. It is only 300 miles from the C. P. R., and the G. T. P. engineers are surveying within 70 miles of it. Since 1855 the placer fields of Cariboo have yielded about 370,000,000 in gold, but the quartz has been overlooked. Ledges such as those on Mr. Armstrong's property, if found in more adver tized quartz fields would, in hi| opinion, cause a. stampede. O; course, to get the best results better transportation facjlitie must be provided. Camps with : smaller possible output have beei gi ven transportation facilities an have been developed on a pay in basis.

Title | Boundary Creek Times |
Alternate Title | [The Greenwood Weekly Times] |
Publisher | Greenwood, B.C. : Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1910-12-02 |
Description | The Boundary Creek Times was published in Greenwood, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from September 1896 to March 1911. The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907). In April 1911, the Times was absorbed by another Greenwood-based paper, the Ledge. The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day. |
