ARE ALL SATISFIED Chicago Capitalists Pleased With Investments, IN THE HIGH GRADE BELT Interested in the Crescent Group of Mines in Skylark Camp. The good old times of '98 and '99 are returning. During the construction of the Columbia and Western railway all points in the Boundary, and especially Greenwood? were-'booming. The expenditure of large sums of money in railway construction and the activity shown in the development of the big low grade mines combined to force the growth of the city and make good times generally throughout the district. With the completion of the railway, however, a large payroll was lost, and the city: having grown faster than the development of the mines, tributary to it, dull times were the inevitable result. As the development of the mines increased, as new properties were opened up, as the smelting facilities were increased and aB the high grade belt became a new factor in the district, these dull times gradually disappeared. The construction of at least two railways in the district put on the finishing touches and the last vestige of hard times is disappearing. These growing times are contagious and this desirable change in conditions is affecting all classes of industry. The big mining companies are extending their operations on a larger scale.. , The Granby company is acquiring new mining properties and it has increased its smelter capacity to eight furnaces. All the large mining companies are investing westward. The B. C. Copper has bonded properties in the Similka- mean and in the Myers creek mining districts and have forces of men at work at these points. The newly reorganized Dominion Copper company is perfecting its plans to. beginning mining and smelting operations early in September. The capacity of the present smelter is to be enlarged, or it is within the range of possibility that a new smelter may be erected. But the greatest development is in the high-grade belt, in which outside capitalists are becom- lag'^l*Lt��I^*-iedv^-SiiJ��3L?Ei-h'^LJ5<--n L* **e largest quota of enterprising men who are willing and anxious to invest their money. All the high grade properties never looked better, and with the investment of capital which is sure to follow the visits oE the prominent financial men who are now in the district, the high grade belt is sure to play an important part in the good times that are now here and that are sure to. continue for years to come. The construction of theV., V. & E. aud the Midway and Vernon, and probably the C. P. R, from Midway at an early date will will bring new investors into the district. The country west of Greenwood has been retarded by lack of transportation facilities, No one who knew anything about the West Fork and the Similkameen districts had any doubts regarding their ultimate future, but the hurricane deck of a cayuse or dusty wagon roads are not conducive to mining investments. The agricultural development has kept-pace with other industries. On Sidley mountain is as fine and rich a farming section as can be found anywhere in the province. Along the Kettle river and on the bench lands back of Midway the industrious farmers are rapidly making for themselves comfortable homes and contributing their share to the wealth and prosperity of Southern British Columbia. Then, too, small patches of land,which would not be looked at a few years ago, are being cultivated today. Such a combination of development must necessarily have its influence on the commercial life of the district. It is rS idle boast to say that in a very short time Greenwood and other towns in the Boundary will be enjoying even better times than in the good old days of six years ago. A nuiu'uer of prominent Chicago business men paid a brief visit to the district this week. They were headed by Colonel Dickason, who is interested with them in the Crescent group. They arrived at Phoenix by private c*ir attached to Tuesday's Great Northern train and drove to Greenwood, where the night was spent. Wednesday morning they visitedthe properties in wb,jch they are interested, and leftothe same day for the East- The party included Colonel Dickason. Ghicago;cG. J. Grammer, vice president of the Monoh railway system, and his son, - Nesbet Grammer of Buffalo, N. Y.j L-. D. McEeisli, a prominent banker of Evansville, 111., and A. J. Herb, of LfOixisville, Ky. They were well pleased ���with the Crescent and more than satisfied with their investment in Boundary high grade mines. The Crescent, after four months' development.under the superintendenc'y of H.-H. Shallenberger, is now one of ' the most promising properties in the high grade belt? The shaft is now down over one hundred feet,.ore having been followed the whole way. The vein is nearly vertical in its dip, and will average over 5100 per ton, chiefly silver. As the ore comes up out of the shaft it presents a" wonderful sight, being clear and massive aiid runuing from six to fourteen inches in width. The ore requires very little sorting, as, it is allowed to stand on the wall and knocked down/after blasting the country rock on the root Vail. There are several carloads in the bunkers ready for shipment. Mr. Shallenberger has made many - improvements on the surface of the mine in the way of hoist, bunkers, messhduse, bunkhonse, private residence and good sized stables, all of which are substantial and iu good order. The Crescent can now be classed as one of the jnany producing mines in the high grade belt of Greenwood. - The Don Pedro lies to the west of tlHfCfeScWl and is"beiug developed by - H. H. Shallenberger. A shaft has has been sunk 85 feet all inore, that is, the vein is from six to eight inches wide and clear, high grade ore. A drift is being run at the 65-foot level north on the vein preparatory to stoping. The ore is very high grade? carrying ruby silver and antimonial gray copper, high in silve**. Mr. Shallenberger has started quite a glory hole on the grade of the new wagon road where the vein was ex posed in grading the road, 10 to IS inches of solid ore i-n large slabs and piled up near the hole. The vein is opened up for 300 feet on the surface, all of which shows ore to the grass roots. The mine is well equipped. On the Preston development still continues with a force of ten men, sinking, drifting and stoping. On Wednesday last a very fine body of ore was encountered in the shaft, averaging seven inches wide and of high grade. A shoot of ore was also encountered in No. 2 drift 6 inches wide aud in 160 feet, and about 180 feet south of the shaft. The ore shoot has beeu proven to be over 300 feet long. So far no faulting whatever has occurred. The shaft is now down about 70 feet. A contract will be let to sink 50 feet deeyer, so as to open upstopinggrouud and block out ore. W. Morton left Tuesday for the West Fork to resume development on the Lilly, an adjoining claim to the Carmi. A 50-foot shaft has been sunk, and it is the intention ,to con'.inue this to the 100-foot level and crosscut for the ore bodv. The vein�� on the surface is about four feet wide of quartz carrying silver-gold values. A^a^^ai^w-G^tw-J-Wirta**!*^^ BOUNDARY GREEK TIMES. PROFESSIONAL CARDS. /. H.

Now that construction of the V., V. & E. is an assured fact Tory newspapers are eager to find an excuse to justify the position taken by Tory members in opposition to V., V. & E. legislation. Even the Hedley Gazette has turned. Two months ago it was strong in its denunciation of those who would bottle up the Similkameen for yeais to come in the interest of the C. P. R. monopoly; today the Gazette is responsible for the following: "A notable feature of the situation, too, is that it vindicates the attitude of the opposition who supported theC. P. R's contentions Mr. Foster and those of his associates who took a hand in the fight with him, resent with very great warmth the imputation that they were advocating 'eithe'r a closed door or a��perpetual monopoly,' and that all they wished was to safeguard Canadian interests by ensuring the completion of the road on this side of the border." It is quite [j true that Conservatives assumed a righteous iudig- nation when the}* found it was impossible to defeat the V., V. & E. bill, but to show where they stood it is only necessary to point out the Conservatives, including Geo. E. Foster, voted against the preamble of the bill. Had they been in the majority this would have completely knocked out the bill. They opposed every clause of the bill and supported every amendment which, if carried, would have destroyed the effect of the legislation applied for. In the railway committee in the house of commons, as Hansard will show, Mr. Foster's arguments if they proved anything, proved that the proper policy for this country to pursue was to bolster up Canadian Pacific monopoly and keep out American roads. For the first and last time this session the Conservative party was practically united on this question, On every other great issue it? was a hopelessly divided party, "but when there was a chance to perpetuate C. P. R. monopoly the Conservatives were lined up in favor of monopoly, with three notable exceptions, R. Pringle of -Cornwall, Gus. Porter of Belleville and Dr. Walsh of Huntington. The truth is that the Conservative party of today lives in the past and is the slave of the gigantic railway corporation which it created over twenty years ago. Its leaders cannot realize that the Canada of today is bigger and stronger than airy railway corporation and^ that its people have no use for any party that cannot and will not act on any public question without receiving its instructions from that corporation. This is; not only true so far as federal politics is concerned, but is now equally true in reference to the Conservative government in this province. The leader of the British. Columbia government is never happy unless he is led by some one. Last year his master was J. H. Hawthornwaite, but this year he has put himself under the guidance of -the Canadian Pacific railway. At the next sessionof the provincial legislature a raid is to be made upon/the provincial treasury. . If the assets not already given to railway corporations dojaot fall into the ca pacious maw of the Canadian Pacific Railway compan}-, it will be because the Liberal opposition will make a sufficiently strong fight to prevent such a perversion. An alliance between the C.P. R. and the McBride-government has been consummated and a vicious raid is sure to be attempted. AMONG OURSELVES. Greenwood's outlook was never brighter than it is today. From a mining, smelting and railway poiut of view, it still occupies a commanding position in the Boundary district. Towns do not grow likeTopsy in ,l Uncle Tom's Cabin." They are made bj- the energy and enterprise and industry of citizens who have faith. At one time Greenwood stood out among all other surrounding towns because her citizens believed in her and worked for her. Greenwood has the majority of the same citizens still, but they have become careless and indifferent at the very time they should have exercised the greatest eu- ergy. In that development which is crowding fast upon the Boundary the future of the city is what the people make. it. Greenwood occupies a commanding position but not an invulnerable one. -If her people are indifferent or overconfident the result may be different. At one time the business men of Greenwood took a keen personal interest in everything appertaining to the welfare of the city. It is only a short time ago since the people of Greenwood scrapped over the administration of municipal affairs; today they do not take sufficient interest in municipal matters to fill vacancies in the council. It is not long ago since Greenwood had a live board of trade whose members were always ready to advance all matters that they considered would materially benefit the city; today the board of trade is dead or sleeping. A short time ago, when a smelter was to be erected or a new business established, the business men of Greenwood were keen to; do what they could in bringing these new industries to Greenwood. Today there are things doing in smelter circles, but the suggestion is scarcely made that Greenwood's claims should be kept to the front. No good can be accomplished by multiplying instances of indifference to the best interests of the town. Greenwood has not lost its grip, but in order to keep it. her people cannot get too somnolent during the dog days nor at any other season of the year.

Too much care cannot be used with small children during the hot weather of the summer months to guard against bowel troubles. As a rule it. is only necessary to give the child a dose of castor oil to correct any disorder of the bowels. Do not use any substitute, but give it the old-fashioned castor oil, and see that it is fresh, as rancid oil nauseates and has a tendency to gripe. If this does not check the bowels give Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and then a dose of castor oil, and the disease may be checked in its incipiency and_.all _datiger avoided^ The castor oil and this remedy should be procured at once and kepi ready for instant use as soon as the first indication of any trouble appears. This is the most successful treatment known and may be relied upon with implicit confidence even in cases of cholera infantum. For sale by all druggists.

THE WASTE DUMP. Transvaal deposits of both tin and copper are lenticular. The finely-ground refuse from asbestos mills is sometimes used in the manufacture of wall plaster. Cocoa matting-and expanded metal rifles are now very extensively used in collocting the gold extracted by dredging. The average hours of labor aud -wages of Cornish tin miners are eight hours per day and ��\. per week respectively- Some miners working on contract get ��S to ,��6 per month. The "process of [concentration by underground waters is never completed. By reason of a change in the direction of flow, ores may be redissolved and reprecipitated in another locality. ..Cyanide has been detected in the human system as long as four months after death occurred by poisoning. Most of the precious stoues used in jewelry are to be found in Mexico, among them the opal, topaz? ruby, emerald, ga.net, agate, carnelian. . At Waihi. New Zealand, the use of tube mills has doubled the capacity of the stamps by permitting the introduction of 20-mesh screens where 40- mesh were used before the tube mills were installed. The practice of regularly wetting mine timbers in very dry portions of the mine is successful in preventing dry rot, which is a fungus growth that does not thrive' in moist places. The life of mine timbers can thus be greatly prolonged. It is not clearly determined why one coal will make good coke and another will not. It. is, however, a matter of record in the Appalachian fields that that coals approximately similar in chemical composition will yield similar results in coking. , The sampling: of any deposic of mineral containing native metal is a.hope less task, more apt to be misleading than otherwise. In such cases experience will enable a man to pass judgment with as much accuracy as can be obtained by sampling. There aie boundless possibilities for a great mining industry in Ireland. The district from Arigna to Droma- hair is rich in coal aud iron, and a projected railway line will cut through the Gouiiaught a til fields, which emi- ueut'experts have sl.ited is capable of yielding between 20,000,000 and 30,000 ,- 000 tons of coal,-said to compare favor, ably with the best Welsh aud Scotch product. Notwithstanding these huge deposits the total output of coal fcr 1903 in Leitrim was barely 1,480 tons; in Roscommon, 10,366 tons, and in Sligo 800 tons���an industry which, if given the aid of railway iransporta- tion, is capable of supporting thousands is not now maintaining one hundred persons. In regard to men injured in mining accidents, Dr. Atkinson, a well-known physicianin Bendigo, Australia, says: " In many cases, even though a miner might be seriously injured, there might be a chance of saving his life if he were kept below in a recumbent position, and hot water bottles and other simple applications made until he had in a measure recovered from the shock sustained by his system in consequence of the injuries received. The mere act of hurriedly bringing him to the surface in the cage in an upright position is often sufficient to deprive the un: fortunate man of any possible chance there might otherwise have been of saving his life." In carrying on stoping operations ���the extraction of ore should begin at the farthest point from the shaft and should not proceed from the shaf*. outward to the boundary of the property. By the former method the ground can be allowed to cave, track could be re moved when no longer needed, and ventilation would be increased when connection had been established between levels at"theu*"eifd"farthest from the shaft. Such a method may delay production until the full length of the drift is run, but it will give better results in the end. In the Lake Superior copper region the use of steam stamps has been brovght to a higher state of perfection than at any other place. At the Isle Royale mill, for example, there is but one stamp and this has a capacity of 550 tons per day. The record for a single day's run in one of these stamps 779tons. while the average in a t-vo- weeks' run was 725 tons per 2+ hours of actual running. Iu the operation of steam stamps of the highest type, the steam pressure follows the stamp fbr only half the stroke. This develops a velocity of 25 feet per second aud causes the stamp to* fall with a weight equivalent to three or four tons. The ventilating problem which confronts engineers of the now famous New York subway tunnel is not so much one of supplying fresh air as it is of lowering the temperature. The subway tunnel has a higher temperature than exists on the surface and the problem is somewhat the same as lias been encountered in other tunnels. In the great Simplon tunnel, for example, it was found necessary to spray cold water into the headings in order to continue operations. A similar remedy has been suggested for the subway, and considering the high specific heat of "water, it would seem thai the present unfortunate condition would be satisfactorilp dealt with in this way. The conditions met with m the sub way are, however, not strictly com- parable to those encountered in a tunnel used in mining operations, inas- mucti-as in the foncer, a vast amount of electrical energy used in the motive, power and lig*hting of the tunnel is constantly being conuerted "into heat energy. - Colic and Diarrhoea���A Remedy that is Prompt and Pleasant. The prompt results produced by Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy together with its pleasant Uiste have won for it a place in many households. Mr. W. T. Tay- loi, a merchant of Wiuslow, Ala., writes: " I have used Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy myself and also with men on my place, for diarrhoea and colic and it always crives relief promptly and pleasantly."

II, 1905 TWO GIRLS DROWNED. A most lamentable accident occurred at Christina lake Tuesday afler- noon, when the lives of two young ladies were blotted out by drowning. A party composed of Miss Agnes Ruckle, Miss Ida Anderson, Mrs. W. M. Wolverton and daughter Marjorie. and Mr. Willey, superintendent of the . Cascade Power company, left Cascade Tuesday morning for a day's outing at English Point. After luncheon Mr. Willey and Mrs. Wolverton went a short distance up McRae creek on a trout fishing expedition. During their absence Miss Anderson and Miss Ruckle decided to go in bathing. Miss Anderson, who was unable to swim, ventured out beyond her dipth, and Miss Ruckle endeavored to rescue her. In this attempt she got a long pole and tried to reach her companion with it. Finding it too short, she sw.am to her assistance. On reaching" her, Miss Anderson threw her arms around her would-be rescuer, and they both sank. This is the brief story of the drowning, as told by Marjorie Wolverton, an eye witness of the accident. Miss Ruckle's parents live at Beaver Point, Salt Spring Island, B. C. She was 24 years of age and was highly accomplished. She taught school in Cascade four years ago, and at the time of'her death was visiting at the home of Mrs. ti. K. Stocker. The last four, years of her life she devoted to landscape painting, in which she had attained considerable success. She Was a cousin of the Ruckle brothers of this city. Her father, Henry Ruckle, is a rancher at Beaver Point. Miss Anderson was a native of Minnesota, her parents living in a little tewn near Minneapolis. She .was of an ambitious nature, and had worked |her way through one course at the I Pullman. Wash., college. At the time 1 of her death she was employed at J. A. Bertois' hotel. She was engaged to I Mr. Willey, of the Power, company, andthey were to have been married in a short time. She was 22 years of age I and was of Norwegian descent. Coroner Kingston and Constable I Dinsmore went down to the scene of the accident. Dr. Kingston decided I that an inquest would be unnecessary. The sad accident has thrown a shade I of sorrow over the town of Cascade, as I both oif the young ladies were very [popular.���Grand Forks Sun.

"Consolidation and the introduction of up-to-date machinery plants for the development of the high grade mines in this camp are the two facts essential in my opinion to success." The speaker was Richard Armstrong of Chicago, who has been spending the past fiye weeks in the Boundary, and left yesterday for home. Mr. Armstrong has already interested with him in local mines many prominent financiers of the Windy City. Continuing, he said: "The purpose of my extended visit was to complete the consolidation into one company of the Barbara, Fremont aud Strathmore mines, to be known as the Greenwood Consolidated Mining and Smelting company. We will expend $25,000 in developing these properties. At present it costs $20 per ton to extract the ore. With machinery this will be reduced to $7 or $6 per ton. Capital 'favors acquiring more land, and this can only be done through the consolidation of ��everal claims at present working under individual management. Such consolidations tend to greater efficiency in development, and under these conditions the mines can be made to be dividend- payers on theincreased capitalization." Regarding the outlook for capital seeking investment from across the line, Mr. Armstrong stated emphati cally that British Columbia is now attracting more attention than such states as Mexico, Arizona or Colorado, and of the province, the Boundary district was preeminently in the lead in this respect. Continuing, he stated that such interests as the Standard Oil crowd, headed by H. H. Rogers; the the New | York Central �� roup, the Morion railway people, and individuals like F. W. Porler of Marshall, Field & Co., Chicago, and Senator Hall, and the Hon. George E. Foss, chairman of the U. S. naval committee iti congress, have already become interested in the Boundary and are more than pleased with their investments. Mr. Armstrong; besides being interested in the new consolidated company, is part owner in the Helen, Preston and other high grade claims. Mr. William Bailey accompanied him to Chicago. JUSTIFY INVESTMENT Colonel Dickason and Associates Have Faith in Camp. Colonel L. T. Dickason, coal operator, Chicago; Captain George J. Grammer, vice-president of the Lake Shore and Michigan Central railway; H. J. Hert, Louisville,.Ky., and S. C. Mc- Leish, Evansville, Ind., were a party of prominent capitalists who visited Greenwood this week, inspecting the high grade mines. They were driven to the Preston and Crescent by William Bailey, in which properties they are personally interested. Speaking for the party, Colonel L. T. Dickason said that the trip had been thoroughly enjoyed in every respect and the visitors "were extremely pleased at the outlook of mining here. He said*" " My friends arid self are interested in both the -Preston and Crescent. We purpose immediately letting a contract for the sinking of the Preston shaft to a depth of 150 feet, and will install a complete machinery plant at once. The showing is-excellent in the 70-foot shaft, in fact, most encouraging- The high grade ore already - extracted will be sent to the smelter. The first shipment is to be made on- the 15th. A plant will also be purchased for the Crescent, in which my associates have a half interest. This property, too, will shortly be placed on a shipping basis. You can add, too, that your properties justify capital, and the result of-our visit will be of benefit in inducing our friends to take up other properties in the Greenwood camp." The party returned Wednesday to Chicago from Phoenix, where Captain Grammer's private car was side-tracked during the visit, Jas. Sutherland returned yesterday from a trip to Spokane, in connection with his mining interests. The Labor organizations of Phoenix will celebrate on Wednesday next, the 16th inst. There will be a parade in the morning, and athletic and boxing contests during the day, to end up with a dance in Miners' Union hall in the evening.. A Warning to Mothers, Too much care cannot be used with small children during the hot weather of the summer months to guard against bowel troubles. As a rule it is only necessary to give the child a dose of castor oil to correct any disorder of the bowels. Do not use any substitute, but give it the old-fashioned castor oil, and see that it is fresh, as rancid oil nauseates and has a tendency to gripe. If this does not check the bowels give Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and then a dose of castor oil, and the disease may be checked in its incipiency aud all danger avoided. The castor oil and this remedy should be procured at once and kept ready for instant use as soon as the first indication of any trouble appears. This is the most successful.*; treatment known and may be relied upojn with implicit confidence even in cases of cholera infantum. For sale by all druggists.

Alternate Title | [The Greenwood Weekly Times] |
Publisher | Greenwood, B.C. : Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1905-08-11 |
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. |
