The Granby mines having for ever passed the .prospect stage, a further step has been taken to place the company operating these properties on a better basis in connection with the payment of regular dividends. A meeting of the shareholders of the company is called for December 1st to raise the par value of the stock from $10 to S100 a share. As the tnit-.es. are now on a ��� permanent paying basis this change is thought desirable. A further reason is advanced ,to the effect that the broker's on the Boston stock exchange charge S12 SO for selling 100 shares of Granby, the same commission as would be paid if the par value of the stock was $100 instead of $10. Discussing this matter the Boston News Bureau says : " When the Granby company increases the par value ol itsshares from 610 to SlOO and reduces the number of its shares from 1,350,000 to 135,000 it will probably immediately start dividends al the rate of $6 per share per an num. " The company is now earning at the rate of about SI per share upon its present 1,350,000 shares, or $10 per share upon its proposed new capital of 155,000 shares. "On the present market value of the shares, [)}<, the new stock would have ;i market value of 95, and Granby interests claim that the present earnings of .S10 per share justify this price ; that as a matter of fact when the company is able to operate its full battery of eight furnaces interruptedly, it should be able to show earnings on 15 cent copper of between $13 and $14 a share. " The Granby company has this year increased its mineral area in British Columbia over 100 per cent and has started in to systematically open up its new proper!ies which show copper bearing rock from the grass roots, as do most of the Boundary district copper properties. " When its properties are thoroughly opened and the company's power facilities are increased to prevent any recurrence-of-the-troublesincitrred-this summer by reason of insufficient power to operate its smelter full force, it is not unlikely that the Granby company will again materially increase its smelting capacity, and the company wiil have. 15.000 shares of .treasury stock which it can dispose of for this purpose, probably at a new par value of $100 per share. This, however, is something for the future." PROVIDENCE APPEAL. Decision of Mr- Justice Irvinjr Reversed by Full ECourt. Word has been received here from the c<mst that the appeal in Madden vs. Diamond has been allowed by the full court. This case originated out of the difficulties between the local shareholders in the Providence Mining company and the Chicago shareholders. At a meeting ot the board of directors it was decided lo buy the Diamond fraction, adjoining the Providence, for 1.G00 shares of the Providence stock. Mark F. Madden, on behalf of the Chicago shareholders, asked to have tlie sale set'���aside, and Mr. Rudolph, another Chicago shareholder,, made a similar application in connection with another meeting at which only local directors were present. These and other cases came before Mr. Justice Irving at Nelson, who found for theplaintlffs, or Chicago interests. His decision in the Diamond case has now been reversed. Owing to recent purchases of shares by the Chicago owners, the decision will not affect the control of the "company, but the local people theroby escape'a heauy bill of costs.

In the Victoria ���Times of Saturday there appears an article dealing with the question of furlher railway extensions in the province. The article is palpably an errbr in some of its details. It is quite true that those associated with Messrs. Arthur and Cain in the construction of the Midway and Vernon railway are also interested in a Vancouver Island charter which may connect with a Port Angeles railway scheme in which they are also interested. It may bo possible that the Harriman railway system is backing up these enterprises with the object of securing northern connections and for the purpose of invading Hill territory, but it is not at all likely that the Spokane and International railway will ever figure in the scheme. The Spokane and International is being built by D. C. Corbih and his associates to connect with the C. P. R. at the international boundary line. To do this the C. P. R. is building a branch line from the Crow's Nest railway at Yak to the international boundary line. As Yak is some 200 miles east of Midway and separated by two mountain ranges it is not at all probable that a prolit- ������.ble connection can be made between the two. Asa matter of fact the Midway and Vernon railway has no connection with the C. P. R. tip to the present, nor is it being constructed with and understanding with that railway company. C. P. R. officials believing that it was a Great Northern enterprise felt justified in showing their hostility. They attempted to take advantage of the road by rushing a crossing on the lands of the Midway and Vernon. The. Midway and Vernon may, be extended northward and southward, but if this is done it will be not with the assistance of the C. P. R.. but in spite of its opposition. The Times says in part: Messrs, Arthur and Schmidt, so prominently connected with the trans portation project referred to are also back of the Midway and Vernon,which is now being ouilt. Just what an independent company wanted of an iso- lated-line4ike-like-thut of-the-Mtdway^. and Vernon has likewise been the cause of considerable speculation. It has all along been felt that that road would have to have an ou'let either by way of the north or by the south. One outlet it was said would be found, and it is reported that it is by the Spokane and International, which has all along been understood to be the means in contemplation by which the C.P.R. was to get into Spokane. It would therefore appear as if the relations of the company which Messrs. Arthur and Schmidt represent are not to be antagonistic to the C. P. R., but that mutual running* rights ov<;r feeders of each may be exchanged. For that mason it is quite probable that should the scheme looking to a railway line from Vancouver Island be carried out the new company would only extend the E. & N. to the north end bf the Island, coining to a mutual understanding'for an exchange of running rights between the two companies concerned in providing a railway for each throughout the whole length of * he Island. This evidence of friendship towards ItheC. P. R. prompts the belief in well informed circles that the corporation i really back of the Port Angeles and I Vancouver ��Island scheme and '.he* j Midway and Vernon and Spokane ami | International line is the Chicago. Mil- 1 waukee ana St. Paul, which ir. <r.;di!i'd with seeking to reach the Pari tie.

BOUNDARY OREEK TIMES. MORE EXTENSIONS. - (Continued from page 1.)-...������' from the Orient, in the advantages of which the C. P. k\ would also share. In the past the connection with Chicago for what are regarded us the Hill lines, the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific has been by means of the Chicago, Burlugtoii & Ouincy, which connects with the: Northern Pacific at Billings. The Chicago; Milwaukee & St. Paui has naturally chaffed at the advantage tuns obtained by its rival, and Burlng- t-r.i, and is now-believed to be reaching for the Pacific coast by means of the new line which has heon projected. The relations between the Chicago, Mi'waukee & St. Pain and the C. P,:R. have always been very friendly, the former being reported to hold considerable stoc i< in the latter line. It is but natural, therefore, that these two corporations should work to each other's advantage iu competing .with their mutual rivals, the Hill lines. Iu connection with the Midway and Vernon franchise il was stated some weeks ago by one closely connected with the scheme, that the line was likely to have vast connections in different directions. It wns indicated that it might be continued north of the C. P. R. and also westward to the coast. It was then suggested that any Great Northern line 'built would probably find a rival road equipped. The proposed extension of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul to the the coast has given all the ports in the United States from Portland, Ore., lo Bellinghani, faith that they would each be selected as the mam outlet in the Pacific trade. Indications now point to the fact -that Victoria has not been overlooked by the projectors of the road, and its chances are probably brighter than any others on the Pacific coast. company acquired an interest in the Tacoma smelter, which was sold this year to the American Smelting and Refining company, the Bunker Hill company's share being SI,500,000. The Federal Mining and Smelting company, which is now controlled by the smelter ti ust, has paid $1,000,000-in , dividends since January 1st. The; company is operating the Standard, Mammoth, Last Chance and Tiger- Poorman mines, and last week purchased the Morning,and You Like mines at Mullan from Larson and Greenough for S3,000,00O. The Hercules company, operating the mine of this name at Burke, is not incorporated and the exact amount of its dividends is not made public. It is known to be about 348,000 a month. The same applies to the Morning and You Like mines. On account of lack of water and the option held by the Federal company these properties have not been worked at their full capacity. They are said to have paid in dividends about $150,000 during the ten mouths of this year. Experience in pyrite smelting indicates that the production of a certain proportion of metallic iron may carry into a pure iron matte, gold value that otherwise would not be saved.

It is to be 24 feet long and 5'4 feet wide and will have 33 wind openings. It is expected that it will lake between two and three months to complete. The Granby Consolidated has just placed another order for machinery for the main three compartment working shaft at Phoenix. This order is for a double conical drum electric hoist of 250 horsepower, the order being placed ��� with tin* Jtmckes Machine company of Sherbrooke, Que. According to the contract Ihe hoist is to be shipped in three months, and will be the largest hoist of its kind in this section. It will probably be early spring before this machinery is installed and ready for operation. The order just placed is in addition to that placed last week, which included a I'lake-Fairell 32 by 42 ore crusher, a duplicate of the two crushers now in commission at the company's mines, and a 250-horse- power variable speed Westinghouse electric motor to drive the eoist.

Greenwood Liquor Co GREENWOOD, B. C. (4 TALK ON NICKEL PLATE Superintendent' of. Mill Speaks of y ?? I Medley- .?.?; ..-While rival railroad comp-?nies are fighting in the courts and occasionally in the open for rights of way in Southern British Columbia, one of the richest mineral districts in the province is being quietly and steadily developed. The delay, in securing- transportation facilities 'is undoubtedly retarding the growth of mining camps into towns and cities, and it has made the cost of mining supplies and/operations very high, but it has 'not' prevented the de velopment and profitable operation of one of the richest and biggest gold mines in America. '-'.'���The' Nickel Plate group in Hedley camp, the property of the. Daly Reduction company,-has been worked steadily for two, years. During the past.year regular shipments have been made to the Everett smelter. Concen. trates have been shipped for treatment- The sand has been cyanided in the company's own mill at Hedley, and the/bullion has been shipped also to Everett, .. / ���;;M"'' ? TThe croute-from (< Hedley, to Everett and-o'iher'coast points' is ari extremely roundabout one". Everything- in the way of���p.J*qv'��iQns, mining machinery and'supplies is taken -in, and the out- putput of the mines sent out, by way of -Penticton, - the ,Okanagan lake, Sicamous and the main-'line ot the C. P R. to Vancouver. ,The distance from Hedley to Penticton is" 45 miles, and the cost of packing is $20 a ton for every kind of freight. It will readily be seen-that under such circumstances only very rich deposits can be worked at all and the best only by companies with abundant capital. The Nicke4]Plate group consists of fifteen claims of which- only two have yet been developed, the Nickel Plate and thei Sunnyside. The amount expended to date by the' Daly Reduction company is between $2,000,000 and $2,500,000. In return for that amount the company, in addition to all that has.already been shipped, has in sight more than $4,000,000 worth of ore. /A". H. Brown, who is retiring- after two years' service from the superin- tendency of the company's cyanide mill, spent yesterday in Nelson on his way to the coast. To a repaesentative of the Daily News, Mr. Browa said : *��� In spite of all the' difficulties it has had to contend with from the beginning and appnrently will still have to face for some time, Hedley is all right. ���r'\ When the country is opened by a railway and supplies and machinery can be taken in at reasonable rates a large number of very rich mines will be operated, and Hedley will become the premier camp of the province. "So far the Daly company has done nearly all the work that has been done in the camp. Its operations are on a very lrge scale. Of -the fifteen claims contained in the Nickel Plate group only two, the Nickel Plate and the Sunnyside have had any development done on,them sofar. A;.. ..""The- mine is at an elevation of 5,850"������feet.Tand the camp 1,470 feet. The ore is brought down by a system uqfj2'Jram%'j=elM per'''"centy'arid a gravity tram, interrupted iu the?middle, with a grade probably averaging 36 per cent. ���'The ore is concentrated in Hedley and?.the'-'concentrates are shipped to Everett. The sand and. tailings are cyanided and the bullion also shipped to Everett. ��� Everything is shipped by way of Penticton. ���'The amount of ore actually in sight ? It is hard to say, certainly more than $4,000,000 worth. The ore varies greatly in value, but it is ah high grade. "I don't know very very much about the mines in the district other than those owned by the Daly company. Some splendid samples have been shown, and it is reason aole to suppose that many other properties are also very rich and extensive, but they are mostly in the hands of men who cannot afford to operate on a large scale under present conditions. Thej' are waiting, with" what' patience they cau, for thelong promised railway connections. " There'are probably about 300 peo- people -in. Hedlep. Quite a number have brought in their families.

R. against the Midway and Vernon railway, and imputing to them petty and discreditable motives in that connection. We are reliably informed that the C. P. R. succeeded in laying their track across the Meyerhoff property without any hindrance or trouble on the part of the promoters of the Midway and Vernon, and we regret that even a clipped statement in the Vernon News should have placed the company in a wrong light as to motive or action."���Vernon News. ���Greater-1 oyal ty���th an-this^even the Canadian Pacific Railway company could not expect from a corporation journal. Such solicitude for the fair name of a railway company should be exploited in a more righteous cause. Is it any wonder there was no hindrance or trouble ? The Canadian Pacific Railway company again adopted brute-force tactics and rushed their mob into private property against the protests of the owners, who are law-abiding citizens, and who did not adopt methods that are insulting to Canadian law. Even when an arrangement was made with the Canadian Pacific railway officials to discontinue work pending a settlement of the difficulty, the Canadian' Pacific deliberately violated the contract and, during the night, attempted to do those things they had agreed not to do. i! The more the acts of the Canadian Pacific Railway company in connection with the V., V, & E. right-of-wav and the Midway and Vernon crossing are considered, the mere one wonders why a big and powerful corporation that is a national institution should wantonly destroy its prestige by such petty methMs. ronto Globe pertinently suggests that the authorities should take such action as will prevent a recurrence of the disgraceful substitution of mob'law for British justice in connection with railway enterprises in this- country. The Globe says : " Reports regarding a conflict between railway laborers at Midway, in Southern British Columbia, show the need of immediate and decisive'action on the part of the authorities. We have no room in Canada for any such disturbances, and the men who are responsible should be made to ser<*e the purposes of such a lesson as will free the Dominion from all such dangers tor years to come. It would be worse than useless to punish the ignorant laborers tempted into a conflict the cause of which they could not understand. In their innocence they naturally followed and supported their leaders. The ig- noranceon which the guilty parties seem to have 'played ���������was the real source of the danger, and that it did not lead to a carnival of murder is due to fortuitous accidents. We have many examples from continental Europe of the results of releasing and inciting ignorant passions, and the railway men who are prepared to make use of such means to further their financial interests should be held to a strict accountability. " This is not a matter to be lightly-passed over=and-forgotten. with the cessation of the violence that disturbed the public mind. Not only the crimes actually committed, but the possibilities of passions let loose, must be taken into account. The torch of the incendiary is none the less crimi- nol because the fire does not become a= conflagration. The matter should be thoroughly sifted and, the guilty parties brought to trial. Canadian, justice may be slow, but we must see that it is sure. Slow let it be, if necessary, for this is a matter too serious for haste. If it takes time to discover the real instigators of the conflict the time will be well spent. If they are allowed (o escape it will be a standing disgrace to the Dominion and a direct incentive to others who may see a chance of furthering personal and financial interests by a criminal use of the ignorant strength of foreign laborers." staff. She is honest, straightforward, with the courage to lift the profession to which she belonged for a quarter of a century out of the mire'of snivelling sveo- phantry. Her reputation as an educationalist is not only national but international. She succeeded in inculcating in the boys and girls under her charge some of those splendid qualities with which she herself is so richly endowed, and had she been allowed to continue-her good work she might have succeeded, through the rising generation, in rescuing Victoria from that mossbackism to which its residents cling so affectionately. But the board of school trustees in their wisdom dismissed Agues Deans Cameron; The primary reason for the dismissal is as characteristically Victorian as the dismissal itself. An individual named Blair made wholesale charges of dishonesty against pupils in Victoria and Vancouver schools in connection with certain drawiug lessons. Miss Cameron alone had the courage to defend the honor of her pupils. She did this so effectively that the board of trustees evidently thought her dismissal was necessary to maintain th status quo in the city of Victoria. We hasten to congratulate Victoria on its board of school trustees and upon .the dismissal of Agnes Deans Cameron. atttBtffflmamm^^ o=* Cr* Cr* Cr* Cr* Cr5** Cr* Cr* Cr* Cr* Cr* CF* CF* Cr* Cr* Cr* Cr* e!

COWARDLY MENDACITY. The fight for railway competition in Southern British Colum- dia was objectionable to the Canadian Pacific Railway company and to the Canadian Pacific newspaper organs. It was particularly objectionable to the Vancouver Daily Province,' whose editor .and alleged proprietor knifed those who rescued him from obscurity in order to become chief mudslinger for the Canadian Pacific Railway company. Since the railway fight at Ottawa last session the Province has never lost an opportunity to malign the members from British Columbia because they stood for the best interests of British Columbia. Having exhausted every other method of abuse, last Monday.,, there appeared a lengthy) editorial denouncing the British Columbia members because they are not wealthy men. It is the kind of denunciation one would naturally expect from the editor of the Province. It is not so long J ago since he himself was poor��� before he sacrificed principle in order to become the creature of a powerful railway corporation. The member for ' Yale-Cariboo is particularly fortunate in Being poor, and also in having incurred the enmity of the Canadian Pacific railway and its organ. The cowardly insinuation contained in the following extract from the editorial referred to is an indication of how the C. P. R. and its organ feels towards one who did his best to secure a railway for Southern British Columbia. Here is what the Province has to say : "But the most shining example which this province can produce of a member who has suffered in pocket by his acceptance of a seat iu the parliament of his country, is the representative of Yale-Cariboo, , Mr. Duncan Ross. A comparatively unknown figure except in his own locality until the electorate of that interior riding insisted upon him giving the benefit of his large ability to their public affairs, Mr. Ross was compelled by the surrender of private business to narrow his expenditure to the meagre allowance of $1,500 which his country paid him prior to the last session. With this, he found it impossible to continue that large but unobtrusive aid to great projects in the Boundary eountry which had before enjoyed the benefit of his recognition, and he was compelled altogether to abandon his assistance to the many benevolent interests which had previously thrived under his especiat care. Can it be wondered at that under the circumstances Mr. Ross should have estab- li8He^_arraiHaTOe^'f6r~the~prbse"cution'- of an immense commercial and industrial undertaking with an alien promoter in order that his reputation for philanthropy should not suffer complete eclipse, and if he made his party and the government parties to what must appear a defeat of the interests of the people of British Columbia, surely he had a sufficient excuse in the parsimony of the country and his suprem v necessity." The references to Senator Templeman and the other British Columbia members are equally mendacious. With the introduction of mob law in the Boundary and cowardly itiuendo in its newspaper organ, the Canadian Pacific railway is using the only weapons it knows how to handle. This once po^ erful corporatioa is fast becoming an object of pity. SCISSORS AND PASTE. A serious accident occurred at the Granby smelter between 8 and 9 o'clock this morning. A small piece of steel rail lodged in the small ore crusher, clogging -it. In their attempt to remove ihe chunk of iron, Foreman Frank Hutton and H. H. Spinks used a long steel bar as a pry. When the crusher again started the spokes of the wheel caught tl-e bar and hurled it with terrific force against the right side of Mr. Spinks' face, drushing the cheek bone and splitting the ear. Mr. Spinks was rendered unconscious by the blow, and. was immediately removed to the cottage hospital and placed under the care of Dr. Kingston. At 6 o'clock this evening he. had not regained consciousness, and it is feared that his injuries may prove fatal. Mr. Hutton had a very narrow esGape, the iron bar almost grazing his face. After hittirig Mr. Spinks the missile was hurled a distance of about fourteen feet, when it struck a post, making an indentation in the wood almost large enough to hide a man's hand.���Grand Forks Sun. While the cessation of the publication of the Nelson Tribune may have been somewhat hastened by the departure of Mr. Houston, the real cause is not difficult'to understand. The field in Nelson is not large enough to afford legitimate support to two newspapers and one or the other was bound to succumb unless kept in existence by subsidies or other, support for partisan or other objects distinct from the legitimate sources of revenue for a newspaper���subscriptions and advertisements. Nelson is not the only place in British Columbia where the newspaper business is overdone. While journalistic .enterprise is to be com- mende.d if well directed, we fail to see why the merchants of a town should be compelled to advertise in every newspaper that'some one may see fit to establish, or people be expected to double or treble their subscriptions because one or two new journalists are eager to enter a field already fairly occupied. There is only a certain fund available for advertising ' and subscriptions? It is in the interests of both the newspapers and their patrons that the number of the former should not be unduly multiplied and while being an unnecessary burden on the 'community, only obtain a precarious existence.���News-Advertiser.

It is a section of a geological series, composed throughout of fhe same material, as shale, limestone, sandstone, coal, etc. The stratum may be subdivided into beds, of which there may be many in in a thick stratum. The bed may again be divided into layers of which there may be stveral"in one bed. A stratum indicates a uniform condition condition of deposition during its formation. When strata are folded and the tips of the folds worn away, and later other strata deposited upon the eroded or truncated edges of the older strata, the two series are said to be unconformable to each other. When strata are inclined instead of horizontal the angle of inclination from the horizontal is called the angle of dip, while the direction which tha edges of the inclined strata makes with a horizontal plane is called the direction or strike. The intersection of the stratum with the surface of the land is called the outcrop, and the strihe and outcrop of inclined strata agree in direction whenever the surface of ihe land is hori zontal. The word Tonopah is Indian, aud means water brush, a desert shrub whose presence points to moisture in . Word has been received here from the coast that the appeals in Madden vs. Diamond aud Rudolph vs. Macey have been allowed by the full court. These were two cases originating out of the difficulties between the local shareholders in the Providence Mining company and the Chicago shareholders. At a meeting of the board of directors it was decided lo buy the Diamond fraction, adjoining the Hrovidence,for 1.GC0 shares of the Providence stock. Mark F. Madden, on behalf of the Chicago shareholders, asked to have the sale set aside, and Mr. Rudolph, another Chicago shareholder, made a similar application in connection with another meeting at which only local directors were present. These and other cases came before Mr. Justice Irving; at Nelson, who found for the plaintiffs, or Chicago interests. His decisions have now been reversed. Owing to recent purchases of shares by the Chicago owners, the decision will not af- the control of the company, but the local people thereby escape a heauy till of costs. Greater care should be exercised in fastening- caps to fuse. Carelessness in this work is responsible for many miss fires with their subsequent dangers. Caps should be crimped with tools provided for that purpose in such a manner thut the fire in the fvse will not be choked, and water will be ex- ud.deNeedless to say the piactlce of "crimping it with your teeth" is foolhardy and reprehensible. a In. connection with the state of affairs that existed between two big railway corporations at Midway, we are lead to wonder why two such companies were able, or allowed, to set at defiance the statutes pertaining to law and order. Why two large .bodies should be allowed to face one another in what was practically battle array certainly demands elucidation. And if bloodshed and murder (yes, it would be murder if any had been killed), had resulted, who would be responsible? It is, we think, only another instance of "One law for the rich, and anothe for the poor."���Enderby Progress. The power of Niagara Falls has been variously figured out by scientists.

With the successful de*- velopment of the immense large bodies of low grade ore and the enlarged and much improved facilities for treating at a very small cost, the continued opening up of new high grade properties aa3 their successful ani profit abl operation has made the Boundary famous as a mining centre, and every day adds more to the list of new finds and bigger values, It is readily admitted that Greenwood is the Eldorado of the Boundary with all roads leading thereto, and surrounded as it is, with such magnificent resources is destined in a few years to be a second Butte, If you therefore want to participate in its future prosperity, now is the time to invest both in mines and real estate, For NINETY DAYS we intend giving you a chance to make a safe and profitable investment.

Neither should the nature of the channel above the board be such as to force or hurry the-water to the board, but it should be of omple width and depth to allow the water to approach the notch and board steadily and quietly. If the water passes the channel rapidl)' it .will*1' be forced over the; notch anda greater quantity will pass than if allowed to spill from a large body moving slowly. When the depth of water over the stake is known, the quantity of water passing can be easily calculated. If we take H as the weight of the water level over the weir or stake, in inches, and Q as the quantity of cubic feet per minute for each inch length of wetr. when contraction of area is reckoned at 62 por cent of full area, we have the simple formula : Q equals 0.4 multiplied by H square H�� In some of the catalogues issued by different water wheel companies���in which this simple plan of measuring water is suggested���tables will be found from which the value of Q can be ascertained at once, without the trouble of workingit out by the formula When You Have a Bad Cold You want a remedy that will not only give quick reicf but effect a permanent cure.

This is known as the '���long" ton. In several states the ton is by law 2,000 pounds. This is known aa the ''short" ton. United statesjlaws- make the ton equal to 2,240 pounds when not otherwise specified. There is also a metric ton ��� of 2,04 pounds, which is employed by Germany and othea foreign countries. The inventor of the thimble is not known. Copper and silver thimbles are said to have been found in "-he excavations at Herculaneum and it is known that the Chinese in early ages used the device for the protection of their finger tips. It is estimated that in the manufacture of silver thimbles lu. the United States alone fully $100,- 000 worth of silver is consumed yearly, representing a production of 125,000 thimbles. At least S50,000 worth of "gold ~~ is~-yearly "mace- into���thimblesr though but very few of these are made of the pure me^al. it being too soft for the purpose used. Where it is desired to measure the flow of a small stream with a fair degree of accuracy, a good plan is to make a weir-across it with an opening or notch for the water to pass. The weir can be made of {planks. When it is couvenient. to use a single board, select one that is long enough to reach across tbe stream, resting irf the bank at each end. Cut a notch in the board sufficient in depth to pass all Ihe water to be measured, and not more than two thirds of the width of the stream in length. The bottom of the notch in the board should be beveled on the down-stream side; the ends of the notch should also be beveled on the same side, and within one-eighth inch of the upper edge of the board, leaving the edge almost shary. A stake in the bottom of the stream several feet above tee board or dam should be driven down to the' level of the notch in the board, this level being easily found as the water is beginning to spill over the board. After the water has come to a stand and reached its greatest depth, a careful measurement can be made of the depth of water over the top of the ���take'. Such measurement gives the true depth of water passiug over the notch or the board, the curvature of the water in passing would reduce the depth, giving the improper measure. Although, where accuracy is not re- " quired, such a method will give a fair estimate of the quantity of water; in all cases it is best to make the measurement over the stake.

Next came a description of Dawson, the metropolis of the gold fields. He spoKe of the great possibilities of the country, told the story of the discovery of the Yukon and the romances connected therewith, and how quickly riches came to some and how others found nothing to re. reward them for their long journey, toil and tribulations. The vastness of' the British Yukon was alluded to, being js large as several of the Pacific coast states.
