If you don't wish to purchase, CALL ANYWAY, EG1NA WATCHES BUY ONE NOW GREENWOOD MIDWAY 3b dfi A serious situation has developed in connection wi'h the construction of the Midway and Vernon railway. A. A. Arthur, of New York, who was here about four weeks ago, returned to New York fully confident that there could be no hitch in the financial arrangements which he had completed before coming west. Sufficient capital had beeu subscribed to build the first ten ' miles of the railway and the > bonds for the entire line had been . successfully underwritten. This , latter money would be available |__against*__the railway as further construction work was* proceeded with. One of the heaviest contributors to the initial expenditure died suddenly and consequently this money was not available. During the last few days negotiations have been in progress in New York to make up this deficiency. In the meantime, however, payday became due and the local management being without funds to pay the men, a small-sized panic ensued. This spread to merchants who. had been carrying the company. They refused to furnish further supplies. Work had therefore to be suspended pending the arrival of the money. Some of the men had nothing but their hard - earned wages and naturally were indignant becatise^tbey were not paid. It is hoped that everything will be satisfactorily arranged today or tomorrow. The.whole unfortunate state of affairs arose because the New York financial men failed to realize tbe seriousness of not furnishing enough money to pay the men. The credit of Ihe company has been seriously impaired by this blunder, but those who are anxious to see the road ouilt are still confident that the necessary financial arrangements will be completed forthwith and con- o strnction continued without fur- 2 ther interruption. 6 9 oooooooooooooooooooooooooo During the year 1904 526 persons were killed by falls of ground in the in the mines of the United Kingdom. This is a decrease of 52 compared with the previous year. Boundary Falls is once more a hive of industry, vacant houses are now filled and those who remained in the little smelter town, trusting that the the close-down was only temporary, are now wearing a happy smile while at work. The smelter of the Dominion Copper company was blown in again onTnesday morning and for some time to come Boundary Falls will enjoy all the prosperity that the operation of a a smelter brings. The Boundary Falls smelter has had a career as chequered as that of any reduction works on the continent. It was first built by the Standard Pyritic Smelting company, the promoter of which was Andrew Ivaidlaw. Price Bros., the millionaire lumbermen of Quebec, dropped considerable money on this venture and. refusing to put up any more, the smelter was acquired by the Montreal and Boston Copper company. It was remodelled audits capacity increased. The sensational failure of Munroe Bros, was responsible for another close-down. Finally the smelter and the mining properties of the company were acquired by a strong syndicate of .*.practical* mining roe n with Samuel New house at their head. M. M, Johnston of Salt Lake was appointed consulting engineer, J. R. Drummond manager of the company, and W. C. Thomas superintendent of the smelter. They lost no time in getting to work, but soon found that considerable development worn had to be done at the mines before a continuous ore supply could be secured for the smelter. During the time the old company was financially embarrassed the mines were robbed of available pre with the view of making the proceeds of the smelter tide over the crisis'. This condition of the mines delayed the blowing in of the smelter and it was not until Tuesday last that the management felt, justified in beginning the regular treatment of ore. One furnace is now running aud later If True Will Give a Third Competing Line to the Coast. on a second will b^blow"ri~inT'"~���==i=1!=i The management of the Dominion Copper company were and. are still considering the advisability of building an entirely new smelter. The Boundary Falls smelter was badly constructed and is handicapped by lack of dumping ground. The latter difficulty has been temporarily obviated by the purchase of additional ground across the river from Mark Christiansen. Where *he new smelter will be erected has not yet been decided. In the meantime the Boundary Falls smelter will run until the mines are developed and the new smelter built. About 300 tons a cay are being ship-1 ped from the Brooklyn and Stemwinder | mines in Phoenix camp, and smaller j shipments will be made from the Sun-1 set and other properties of the com- j pany. The shipment of ores from these mines has increased the output of tne Boundary beyond the million ton mark. This output was expected some time ago, but owing to the fai'.ure of the Montreal and Boston the expected didn't happen. Even should the Dominion Copper company decide to proceed with the erection of their new smelter imme-1 diately it will likely be a year before | it is in a position to treat ore. Bound- I arv Falls, therefore, has a new l^ase i of" life. i The copper ores of Rio Tinio. Spain, i are massive iron pyrites, carrying 3 : percent, copper, which has been dis- \ seminated through the mass by second-; ary enrichment. The method of treatment consists in allowing large heaps of ore to oxydize under the influence of moisture and air, subsequently washing out the copper sulphate formed by running water through tha heap. Last week's British Columbia Gazette contains a'Jiiuniber of notices in regard -to railway legislation which will occupy the attention of the provincial legislature during the forthcoming session. Robertson & Robertson of Victoria are giving notice of a amendments to existing railway charters and also are outlining a scheme of amalgamation of several railways into one system. The Vic- Toria Times, discussing this matter says : ...-:' " A notice showing what is to constitute the system sets forth that application will be made to incorporate a company with power to acquire the following charters and.operate the fol- lowingUndertakings : The Vancouver and Coast-Kootenay Railway company, the Alberni and Cowichan Railway company, the Kamioops and Atlin Railway company, and the Midway and Vernon Railway coin pany. "Accompanying notices show how these are ' tc be connected up into a system. The first one, that of the Vancouver and Coast-Kootenay, is a charter held by McLean Bros., the route being from the; Kootetiays to Vancouver city, along much the same route as the V., V. & E..-now in course of construction. It is sought'*to extend the time for the completion of that line and to - authorize the building of a branch to Kamioops. "The Midway and Vernon charter is sought to be amended so as to permit of building to Kamioops also, and permission is asked to build a branch to Penticton. "The Kamioops and Atlin act is sought to be revived, ratified and confirmed. The time for constructing the line is asked to be extended and an alteration in the line is asked to be permitte . so * that - it. may run from - Kamioops where it will meet the Coast Kootenay and the Midway- and Vernon, and iip the North Thompsan. Per- ^m issioj jl to Jj uii d^a bra n e h to Quesnel lake will also be asked. "In connection with the Vancouver Island branch an application is to be made to revive and confirm the Cowi- chan-Alberni and Fort Rupert Railway act by extending the time for constriii- tion and permitting the extension of the line to Victoria or Esquimau* harbor. "The whole system will be known as the B. C. Cential Railway company, and A. A. Arthur is the exeoutive head He is also indenified permanently with the railway recently incorporated to build from Port Angeles to Olympia with a ferry from Fort Angeles to Victoria or'Esquimau harbor, " It is reported that connection i& to be given by ferry with Victoria from the line of the Coast Kootenay also, so that iu the system Victoria scmns to be destined to play an important part, being the outlet for the trans-Pacilic trade. There is still a mystery surrounding the scheme with respect to what great corporation is back of it. It was suggested in Saturday's Times that possibly the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul company was behind Mr. Arthur in his scheme. Many well informed on transportation subjects hold the opinion that this'is. the corporation which is entering the field in a. light against J. J. Hill, Additional cuh.-i-i-. lent to this by the fact that tne Ow>! Kootenay project, which pij.icticn.i <- parallels the V., V. & E., ,is inclti-ie I in the system. "Those intimately associated w��iu the scheme wil! not give any-clue <���> the interests' which are back ot it other thau assurances that it is to be part of a gigantiV: syMein ..t : ���*.**. 11 \y.iy (Concluded on Pai^.- 2.) ' ,4 BOUNDARY ORBEK TIMES. TO BUILD RAILWAYS. , (Continued from Page 1 ) with ramifications iu many directions. "The present terminus of the Cowichan, Albemi and Fort Rupert railway is at Mill Bay, in Cowichan district. To reach this city the new line would have to parallel the E. it N. railway, or by an alternative route via Cowichan aud Sooke. " D. II. McDowall of Victoria ami John Cane of Port Angeles are responsible in a large measure for bringing the plan to the attention of. capitalists, and their success i.s indicated by the promptness with which the Mid.wny- Vernori section is being built, it is claimed that European capital is behind the venture, which is even more comprehensive than the British Columbia portions of it indicate." SCOTCHMEN CELEBRATE Butier-Lj/ons.' At the residence of .Mr. F'ed Anderson, Kimberley avenue, Monday last, by the Rev. Father Bedard. Thomas O. Butler of Chesaw, \Vash.,.w.\s married to Mrs. Margaret Lyons of Rossland. Mr. Butler in the early'days o " Greenwood conducted a harness shop here, but upou the opening of the Colville: reservation moved with his family and located on a homestead near Chesaw, Wash. Tubes and vessels of melted quartz are now made successfully and replace glass in some laboratory operations. The sulphuric acid process of parting' gold and silver will permit the delivery of refined gold within 2+ hours after placing the bullion iu the kettles. Successful Banquet Under Auspicps of St.'Andrew's Society. The annua, banquet., of the Greenwood St. Andrew's society was held in the Kootenay hotel last evening. Duncan Ross, president of the society, was in the chair. Among the guests of the society at dinner were His 'Honor Judge Clement and D. Whiteside, of Grand Forks, and S, S. Taylor, K. C, of Nelson. The dinner itself left nothing to be desired, It was well cooked, and well served and reflected great credit on Mr. and Mrs, Walsh, who did everything possible to make it a success. The annual telegraphic greetings from kindred societies in Canada and the Chicago society were read and the good wishes of the local society were sent by wire, the Canadian Pacific railway , .company.. courteously placing its wires at the service of Scotchmen for the purpose. The banquet was informal. There was not set programme and not set speeches, but this did not detract from the pleasures of the evening. There 'were a number of impromptu speeches, a number of witty- stories, and an abundance of fine old Scottish songs aud Scotch���well, Scotsmen sometimes do tak' a wee drappie on St. Andrew's nicht- Mr." Myer of the Brooklyn hotel. Phoenix, accompanied the singers on the piauo, and at intervals favored the banqueters with appropriate selections. The toasts included "The King," which was enthusiastically received ; '��� The Laud We Live in," propoeed by. D. Bannerman, and Mr. Whiteside responded ; " The Land o' Cakes," proposed by J..S. Birnie and responded lo in excellent speeches by Captain Gordon and C. Scott Galloway; "The Bench and Bar" found an eloquent proposer in Duncan Mcintosh, and His Honor Judge Clement and S. S. Taylor, K. C, made eloquent speeches in reply. These were followed by " United States," "Our Guests," "The Ladies," and last, but not least, "Our Hosts." ^^J?h&^inge*^_j>fj|on^ every one present. Men. who keep their vocal talent carefully hidden for 364 days in the year, can always be induced to sing on St. Andrew's nicht. But the meeting was not all pleasure It was the annual meeting, as well. Officers were elected for the ensuing year and arrangements made to keep the society in a live and prosperous condition. The new president is W. G. McMynn, and the secretary treasurer is the old reliable J. S. Birnie, who has held the ofiice since the society was organized, Mr. Whiteside, on hehaif of the Grand Forks society, extended a cordial invitation to the Greeuwood members to attend their annual banquet on Burns' anniversary, Jan.25.

Tliere. is nothing necessarily injurious or disastrous in the public ownership and operation of railways, and this is shown by the experience of Victoria, Australia. Two years ago last May Mr. Thomas Tait, a Canadian, of whom*the Dominion has reason to be proud, left the post of wanager of transportation of the Canadian Pacific to become chief of the commissioners in charge of the railways of Victoria. These railways had been running behind. For tbe year ending June 30, 1902, the deficit after paying fixed charges, was $959,805, and for the next year it was $1,777,- 508. The colony had, on a system of 3,300 mik-s, a railway debt of about $205,000,000, calling for $7,500,000 interest 'annually. These deficits, followiag similar discouraging results in several previous years, caused the authorities to seek a man, and they found him in Mr. Tait. The latest report of the Victorian railways indicates that the P commissioners are accomplishing what they set out to do. They are getting away from deficits. All who favor government ownership as a principle or policy will be pleased to learn that the results of the past year are in striking contrast with the record for the year ending with June, 1902. With 20 per cent less train mileage the railways carried 4 per cent, more passengers, over 5 per cent more freight and earning 6.4 per cent more in gross revenue, thus changing a deficit into a surplus.���Toronto ���; Globe.'"a'--\7'- Among- the recent advances in electrometallurgy may be mentioned the scheme to produce a specially compact and firm coating- of zinc by the addition of gum arabic to the bath.

Fitzgerald of the Royal Northwest Mounted police. He was accompanied by Constable Walker. They are en route to Dawson and alter outfitting at that point will leave for Fort Macpheison. The trip will occupy about 25 days. To the Vancouver News Advertiser Sergt. Fitzgerald stated" that he and Constable Walker would take the mail which is being sent to the imprisoned American whalers from Dawaon to Fort Macpheraon, and it would be taken from there to Herschel Island by the police patrol. 1 do not think that the whalers have been caught in the ice near Herschel Island, said Sergt. Fitzgerald. They always manage to get out before the freeze-in, and I am of the firm opinion that they have been daught in the ice in the vicinity of Point Barrow. Our 'Vpatr&rrwh^th'wiirconsist of sevetrinenf will go to Herschel Island, and if the whalers are imprisoned ia the ice in that vicinity we will be enabled to deliver mail to them. Constable Walker and myself will outfit ourselves at Dawson and will travel by Dog team to Fort MacPherson. If the American whalers have been caught in the ice off Point Barrow they must face the hardships of a winter in the north. However, the natives can supply enough meat to keep the whalers well supplied during the long winter months. This winter two patrols will leave Fort Macpherson for Herschel Island. I will only accompany the first patrol and expeel to be back in Vancouver again next April. Our patrols are sent out to Herschel Island for the purpose of collecting customs fees from the American whalers and also to see that no liquor is supplied to the natives by the whalers. We have never experienced any trouble and have always found things all right in the Far North. I do not understand why the-Cana- dians do not enter into competition with the Americans in the whaling industry, concluded Sergt. Fitzgerald. .There are large numbers of .American whalers in the north, but the Canadians have not yet entered the field. Sergeant Fitzgerald and Constable Walker were stationed at Fort Macpherson for two years, in fact Sergeant Fitzgesald was a member of the patrol which established the mounted .police post at that point two years ago.���Vancouver News-Advertiser.

West to have Western newspapers deprecating- a reasonable rate of wage for its representatives. THE BYE-ELECTIONS. Ontario Is wailing over the extravagance of parliamentary representatives in voting themselves the munificent salary of $2,500 per annum. The echo of that wail fijids expression in certain British Columbia newspapers which are anxious to .find fault with the Laurier government, and believe that anything which comes from Ontario must be good���even its penuriousness. It is not surprising to find Ontario newspapers and Ontario crossroad statesmen denouncing the increased sessional indemnity. It is surprising that men and newspapers in the West, who ought to know that Western development has been hampered by the smallness of Ontario, should ness as expressed in the denunciation ol" the increased sessional indemnity. Today the members of the house of commons are getting less pay per \ve��ek than members ef the legislature of the Province of British Columbia or members of the Ontario legislature. They are getting half the pay ol congressmen of the United SLutes, who also get an allowance for stenographers. The pay is the same as that paid to the members parliament iu the Australian commonwealth. As a matter of fact Western members arc not getting the full increase of $1,000, The Ontario member who lives near the city of Ottawa gels the full $1,000 increase, but the Western members lose their mileage. Under the new arrangement Dr. Thompson of Yukon gets some $36 more than when mileage was paid and the British Columbia members get an increase of less than $500. There is not a Westeru member who goes to Ottawa aud remains there during a session of six months and who faithfully represents Western ideas and Western ideals but what is money out of pocket, even if he is allowed $2,500. Opposition to the increase should be confined to the cent belt. It is a libel ou the The recent bye-elections held in the East would indicate that the people there have not been stampeded by the fiery utterances of the Toronto agitator. The election of Pardee, the Liberal candidate in West Lambtou, was particularly gratifying. The seat is a representative one, being composed of a rural and urban population, and fairly'close politically. It afforded a splendid opportunity to test the strength of the government, and the substantial majority given the government candidate indicates that the people are not anxious for a change. The irrepressible Billy McLean took charge of the campaign, against the postmaster- general in North York. He found the candidate, furnished the platform and the necessary hot air to keep things moving. This decisive set-back to McLean's ambition will be welcomed by Conservative leaders. He has been knifing his party for years. He was given plenty of rope in North York and lie successfully hanged himself. With all the smelters running, with the big mines 'producing more ore, aud with the high grade ones looking better than ever before, the Boundary never locked better than it does today.

As masters of the administration, they should not allow Charlie Wilson to have two trips to England while they must be satisfied with one trip to Ottawa. It is such an unfair division of play that it looks as if the attorney- general by sheer force of ability had at last made his influence felt among his colleagues. We trust that Dick'and Bcb will have a real good lime. It is announced that they are going to ask the Laurier government for more money. These ministerial" trips are expensive and if Sir Wilfrid would only dig up it would help out. They are also going to see about the introduction of military training into the public schools of the province. Now this is downright unfair to F. J. Fulton, the minister of education. He wants some excuse to make, a trip, and, besides, isn't he the only real educational expert in the province. Tlie very idea?

As already reported, Dr. I-Iaauel, superintendent of the mines branch of the department of '.lie interior, has sent to Hon. Frank Oliver the first of a series of publications on the economic: minerals of Canada. The report deals with mica. Canadian mica mining- has now reached such proportions as entitle it to a prominent position in the mineral industries of the Dominion. The mica industry employs 550 persons. The wages paid last year amounted to ��120,000. Mica, has been found in the Similkameen, but whether it exists in commercial quantities is not���* known. Large deposits of it are found at Tete Jttane Cache, northeast of Kamioops. Prospectors should search for it when in the hills, as it is valuable for many purposes.

Some weeks have elapsed since the Nanaimo Free Press was challenged to prove its statement, when it boldly alleged in an editorial re the Albert]i personation case, that Nilsen's nainn was on the voters' list and that he had aright to vote. But the Free Press has failed to publish the name or its number on the list. Surely the sum offered bv Mr. Drury, M. U. A., ($200) is a handsome price for the space this information would occupy in thf columns of the Free Press. Then our esteemed contemporary should remember that there is $10 a day coming to Nilsen for every day he was in jail if it is able to show that his name was on the list intended for him, or on which he had any right to vote. It is real'y too bad that Nilsen should be kept out of this money simply because the Free Press, after positively stating in an editorial that "his own name appeared on the list," now refuses to publish his name and number as it appeared (? there. Again, the Free Press should not forget that its o�� n reputation is at stake, and io use its own words it '-shomd.rec >llect that a newspaper that through bitter paruzanship overlooks the truth loses all its influence with the people and cannot retain its self- respect," Perhaps some of the other government organs that had so much to say on the subject might come to the assistance of the Free Press. Perhaps, too, it would be well if Premier McBride would hold another cabinet meeting to examine the marked copies of the lists used at the election just, as they did before the personation trial took place, as related by the deputy provincial secretary in his evidence at Nanaimo on the 20th September. Some one ought tocome to the relief of the Free Press.���Vancouver World. An anecdote concerning E. H. Morphy, a Canadian living in St. Paul, appears in some of the American newspapers, with comments of a more or less jibing nature supposedly at Canada's expense. Mr. Morphy is a lawyer of ability, enjoys a large practice in the Minnesota capital, aud was also at one time British vice-consul in that city, He is quoted as relating the following experience : Before I left London I attended a dinner party at which I was joked in a good natured way about American customs. ���'Bnt I am not an American," I said. "I am a Canadian. "But it's just the same," they all answered in chorus. Shortly after I had been back in St. Paul a friend was walking down the street with me when he asked : "You wouldn't care to go back to ���England to live, would you?" " But I'm not English. I'm Canadian," I said. " But it's }he same thing," he quickly answered. So you see a Canadian doesn't seem to have any nationality either in England or America. The Spokesman-Review thinks it is bad of Mr. Morphy to "wound the ���uaceptibilities of the Canadians in this manner, for aside from the humor of the incident there is unqustionably a good deal of serious truth in his comment on the status of Canadians." Our Spokane friend need not he concerned about the susceptibilities of Canadians iti connection with such matters, for if they were ever in danger of being wonnded by such displays of ignorance by either Englishmen or Americans, that time has passed. Canadians ate generally gifted with the saving sense of humor, and nowadays feel nothing but amusement, perhaps tinged with pity, over the ridiculous ideas of this country which are entertained by some of the more ignorant people of other countries. The)' know that the well informed -make no such blunders. They have also the satisfaction of seeing many thousands of the best type of Americans pay the best possible tribute to Canada by transferring themselves to this side of the border. We are not disturbing ourselves over the opinions of such people as Mr. Morphy had the misfor tune to encounter.���Rossland Miner. The details connected with the transaction are not yet given out, Mr. Hob- son says. He is, therefore, not prepared to say just what is involved in the deal. The transfer, however, means much hydraulic mining in the north. As previously announced the price paid has been one million dollars, Mr. Hob. son and the other Canadians who up to (he present have been represented in the company, still retain a quarter interest in the corporation. The new capital interested will put-the mine iu splendid shape. The Guggenheims and John Hays Hammond have now been interested in the company, so that the Cariboo Consolidated is Jplaced in a position to carry out almost any project which may be thought wise. A feeling has prevailed that with the new deal Mr. Hobson would seek to be relieved of the actual management of the business and take up his residence in Vic'oria, having purchased the beautiful residence Gisburn two years ago. Mr. Hobson, however, says that he will continue to have charge of the mining operations. It is learned elsewhere that his continuance in charge was made a condition of the new capital entering the business. This shows the confidence which is reposed}hi Mr. Hobson by investors and speaks well for his past management of the mine. In the past the great trouble has beeu the water supply. Mr. Hobson's gigantic scheme for conveying an adequate supply to the mines has been before described in theseeolumns. The additional capital tiow introduced will make it possible to carry out the project, so that the output in future may be expected to be very materially increased. Mr, Hobson expects in future to occupy Gisburn during the winter months. He will, however, spend the summer in charg'e of tbe mines in Cariboo,���Victoria Times. Herb W. Edwards Injured. Herb W. Edwards of Des Moines, Iowa, got a fall on au icy walk las*} winter, spraining his wrist and bruising his knees. "The next day," he says, "they were so sore and stiff I was afraid I would have to stay in bed, but I rubbed them- well witn Chamberlain's Pain Balm and after a few applications all soreness had disappeared. ' I feel that this bottle of Pain Balm saved me several days' time, to say nothing of: the suffering." This ointment is for sale by all druggists Accidants due to breaking of hoisting ropes occur not only while a load is being hoisted, but also while it is being lowered. Thus a device calculated 'to arrest the fall of a cage must be designed to aet dnickly and without waiting for the cage to acquire too gre^t a falling velocity. Medical men who have investigated miner's phthisis are almost uuauhnous in attributing the disease to inhalation of stone dust. There are. however, some strong adherents to the theory that vitiation of the air by carbonic oxide is the chief cause. .>&��:��^>x��*x��m��x^w^>c��w**'Wk^-> 1! DAILY STAGE 9:00 A. m'. 5:00 v. M. ?

Thompson, the well known- newspaper man, who visited the Boundary about two weeks a;jo, is is writing a series of interesting letters regarding- British Columbia to the Boston Transcript, Winnipeg- Free Press and other nevspapers. Dealing with the settlement of Ii. C. lauds, he makes the following' pointed oh.-ierva- dbse'rvations : " To the casual visitor it appears that the populating of British Columbia would be a prime benefit lo the Canadian railway There is in the valleys much more good land, suitable for vegetables and fruit culture, than is niisually supposed. But it .seems t*"�� be held at prices rr.lher deterrent than promotive of settlement. Among the immigrants and migrants who now go to or live on the treeless plain, there rniibt be-many wro would prefer the beauty, mildness, shelter, shooting and fishiug of this mountain country, if th'ey could but get land free, oratat- attractively low prices. By a policy promotive-jof agricultural and horticultural settlement, the mining industry would be facilitated, inasmuch as hiredy.ipeopleV engaged in it would thus "be;*' enabled to procure cheaply many supplies that, are now costly. Simultaneously, capital, would be encouraged to*new. enterprise by the proximity, of reserve population for recruiting the camps It appears true that the high rate of wages set by mining would forbid any agriculture largelp dependent on hired labor, but small yoemaii farmers who do their own work ought to find this region an excellent field. If its lands were owned by the wealthy Dominion government, instead of mostly by the impecunious provincial administration, they would probably be speedily populated, because the Dominion government would then have a more obvLus or direct interest in getting the lands occupied. That govern men. \s real, though indirect, interest woulc1 be in putting on the soil.people who would .pay customs and excise duties. To get those people that government could afford to lose the Administration of ihe lands, just as it loses iii, respect of the lands of the plains. There is no obvious reason ���why the C. P. R Co., a great holder of B. C. lands, should not reason similarly, arguing that the freight and passenger business to come of populating the valleys, would warrant the giving away of much ��� railway land at iii.iiniiia.1 prices. Of course this line ol reAsoriirig would not apply in tlie case of the more valuable fruit lands.. For them there is a large demand at present prices." * The theories of the physical condition of matter have been undergoing such radical changes of late that they are scarcely recognizable to those who have not kept pace with the progress being made. Various iron alloys are given names to which the word ferro is prefixed, as ferrotuugsten, 'etc., signifying an alloy of iron with the respective metals mentioned. vair-fOKiA.B.c. -j>*ite����ai>XiM,U^tMJi"uJt.j^ <L*hw**��>iiUMifiJ>>ta^^^c*U^��i-'-r-^- Anglican, Str Jude's Gliurcli RliW.JoHN IvKECH-POliT'KK, B.
