FREE GOLD AND SILVER  Mr* Donohue Arrives from Chicago.-  Says Many Capitalists are Watching the Boundary District.  Every little while some fine samples  of rich ore are found in the high grade  mines of Greenwood which serve to  stimulate local interest and spread  abroad good news of the Boundary.  Wednesday night a fine piece of ore  'was struck in the Strathmore mine in  the drift at the hundred foot level  which is said to be the finest yet found  in any Greenwood mine. The specimens shown about town carry high  vajues in free gold and native silver  and are samples of which any mine,  might be well proud. This strike at  the hundred foot level bears out, as  other strikes in other mines have done,  the oft repeated theory' that greater  depth will produce higher values.  MR. DONOHUE ARRIVES.  Among the arrivals in town Wednesday night was James Donohue of Chicago, who is deeply interested in the  Strathmore7 Mr.-Donohue was seen at  the Imperial ho'.el, and of course was  much delighted by the rich strike that  had her.alded his coming.  - "Mining is more or less of a speculation," he said, "but of course such  fines are most encouraging."  "You are equipping your mine with  ���machinery?"  "Yes, we have ordered.an' electric  hoist and "will push development right  along. Electrical power is the only  power we can use economically. Wood  is too expensive and too hard to get to  warrant installing steam power."  Mr", Donohue is a genial Irishman  with a pleasing brogue and a friendly  smile. He is enthusiastic over the  prospects for mining in the Boundary  aiid he says that numerous Chicago  capitalists are becoming more and more  interested in this country. Their attention has been directed thitherward  by the success that has attended the  most extensive operations and their  interest is being ��� deepened and 'their  numbers increased by the continual  reports of success that are being sent  1 out frow. this district.  CANNED MEAT."  When Mr. Donohue was asked about  the canned meat revelations he smiled  and said they were treated more as a  joke in Chicago than anywhere. He  said that people thousands of miles  away are taking the matter far more  seriously than are the citizens .of Pack-  !?_* ��� ...

He recognized, however,  how great an injury has been done to  the meat trade of the United States,  and that a long time must necessarily  elapse before public confidence can be  restored. He believed that packing  house conditions were better today than  they had been for years.  BRYAN IS POPULAR.  Speaking of American politics, Mr.  Donohue said:  "Bryan is very popular and seems  sure to get the nomination, and if he  does, Roosevelt is the only man in the  United States who can defeat him, and  Roosevelt won't run. Bryan will poll  most of the Socialistic vote, and with  the support of his own party, he is sure  to be elected."        c  "Will not his election have a bad  effect upon the financial institutions of  the country?"  "Yes, his nomination will cause a  panic and his election will usher in a  period of financial ruin and commercial depression. The periodical hard  times have been delayed. In the natural course of events they would have  been upon us before, but the rapid  growth of the country and the immense  growth in wealth has kept the people  prosperous, but a change in govern-  meut with Bryan at the head of affairs  will be sure to bring on hard times."  MUNICIPAI, OWNERSHIP.  In discussing the question of municipal ownership of the street cars of  Chicago, Mr. Donohue said that the  recent agitation for their public control had practically died out and the  matter was now at a standstill. He  pronounced himself as being totally  opposed to the Chicago city council  attempting to operate the street car  system.  "There is too much of politics in  American city governments to allow  municipal ownership to become a success," he said.  Mr. Donohue will spend several  weeks in Greenwood and vicinity while  he thoroughly examines his mines and  interests.

A  NEW GRADE   BY-LAW  <*   ____  Measure Introduced  Affecting Kimberly Avenue and Deadwood Street  ���Non-Damage Agreement.  /T  When you want color poster work  done bring your order to the Times  office. We have positively the only  job printing office in the Boundary properly equipped to successfully  do the work.  At the council meeting those present  were: Acting Mayor Bunting, Aldermen Sullivan, Nelson and Wood. The  minutes of the last meeting were read  and adopted. A number of communications were read, among them being  a request from Alderman Mathison for  a three months' leave of absence.  This was granted, and the doctor will  be able to enjoy his three months-  holiday in the Similkameen and at the  coast without being worried about the  weighty affairs of Greenwood's council.  Fred Stutridge, who is now in charge  of the city ranch, wrote that he would  rent the place for a period of six years  and nine months and would agree to  clear 25 acres of ground and would  improve the buildings to the extent of  S250P During the discussion on the  question Mr. Bunting reported that he  had visited the ranch and had been  much pleased with the manner in -which  Mr. Stutridge was carrying on the'  work. He had noticed that the tenant  kept a good class of stock and that  general appearances indicated, thrift  and orosperity. He would favor making such a lease as outlined. Alderman  Nelson, also spoke favorably of the  proposition and moved that Mr. Stut-  ridge's offer be accepted and-that ar  clause be inserted in the agreement  providing that not less than five acres  of land be cleared each year until the  total of 25 acres be cleared and fenced.  The motion was carried.  Tenders were received from the Pacific Coast Pipe Co. and from the  Canadian Pipe Co. for the supply of  pipe for the water works extension to  Providence creek. The tenders were  very close, and as the supply previously received from the Pacific Coast  Pipe Co. had proved entirely satisfactory, it was decided to award the contract to that firm.  In the matter of securing a site for  the proposed dam on providence creek,  the committee in charge reported that  the question haii been taken up with  P.-Jv=Dermody,-manager_for-the.Erov-   idence Mining Co., butnothingdefinite  had been accomplished and it was decided to consult with Mark F. Madden,  the president of the company, who is  expected to arrive from Chicago  shortly.  Comments were made on the low  water pressure of last Friday, and it  was reported that a plank had been  removed at the intake and the water  was flowing down the stream instead  of going into the reservoir. No one  seemed to know how the plank came to  be displaced.  By-law 118 was introduced by Af ler-  ma.n Wood providing for alteriug the  grade of Kimberly avenue between  Deadwood street and Providence street,  and of Deadwood street betweeu Cop- ���  per street and Kimberly avenue. This  passed the usual readings and will be  finally adopted at the next meeting.  An agreement was drawn up to be  signed by the the city and C.

Lead is one of the most useful meals  we have and forms innumerable alloys  chief * if which are the common solders,  ��� type metals, Babbitt metals, etc. Metallic lead lus a bluish white color, is  very soft and tolerably ductile. A  freshly cut. surface has a bright luster,  but on exposure to air becomes dull by  oxidation. Its specific gravity is 11.37  and its fusing point 325 degrees centigrade, distilling at a white heat (aboul  1700 degrees c.) It burns to '.eud oxide  when heated in the air.  In contact with air and water lead  oxidizes to lead hydroxide, which is  somewhat soluble in water. If, however, the water contain carbonic a oil  and mineral salts���even in slight  quantity, as in natural waters���no lead  goes into solution, but it is covered  with an insoluble layer of caibouate  of lead. This behavior is very important for practical purposes as lead  pipes are frequently employed in conducting drinking water.  Sulphuric and hydrochloric acids  have little effect ou the metal, yet if  the lead be'in the form of fine powder  both acids will dissolve it. It is readily  "soluble in dilute nitric; acid. Zinc, tin  andiron precipitate it as metal from  its solutions. Among the salts of lead  the lead oxide (litharge) and carbonate  are the most common.  The carbonate occurs in nature, as  cenissit'e. It is prepared artifically by  dissolving litharge in acetic acid and  converting the resulting basic acetate  ^into a carbonate by conducting carbon  dioxide into it. It bears the name of  white lead, so useful in the manufacture of paints.  As it is very poisonous it is being  replaced more and more by zinc white  and permanent while (barium sulphate).  GAI.KNA.  This well known mineral occurs  mostly in cubes, which is very characteristic. It has a metallic luster and  color and streak pure lead-gray.   Its  ��� hardness is 2.5-2.75, and specific gravity 7.4-7.6. Galena is composed of lead  86.6 per cent, and sulphur 13.4 per cent.  It often contains silver and occasionally selenium zinc, cadmium, antimony,  bismuth and copper as sulphides.  As all galenas are more or less argentiferous, there are no external  characters that serve to distinguish  the kinds that are much so from those  that are not. It is decomposed by  nitric acid and its distinguishing characters are its cubic cleavage, color and  high specific gravity.  Galena occurs in beds and veins and  - is one of the most widely distributed  of metallic sulphides. It occurs both  in crystalline and Uncrystalline rocks.  It is often associated with pyrite, marcasite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, arseno-  pyrite, in the gangue of quartz calcite,  barite or fluorite, also with cerussite  and   other   salts   of lead.   It   ii   also  at Pary's mine in  Anglesea,   hence its  I've read the muck rake fellows' stories  name.  BOTJRNONI.E.  Ts rather brittle,its luster ir. brilliant,  color and streak steel gray, inclining  to blackish red-grav or iron-black. It  is composed of lead-42 5 per cent,  antimony 24.7 per cent, copper. 13.0 per  cent, sulphur 19.8 per cent.  The hardness is 2.5-3, and specilic  gravity 5.7-5.0. It fuses easily in flame  of blowpipe and is decomposed by  nitric acid, giving a blue solution and  leaving a residue of sulphur and a  white po-vder of antimony nud lead.  . YROMOKPHITR.  Is sometimes called green lead ore.  Its luster is resinous, color green, .yellow and brown of different shades,  sometimes wax-yellow and tiueorange-  yellow, also grayish white to milk-  white, streak white.  It is a lead phosphate. Lead 89.7  per cent, lead ehloride, 10.3 per cent,  Its hardness is 3.5-4, and specific gravity 6.5-71.  With soda on charcoal this mineral  yields metallic lead. It is also soluble  iu nitric acid and is distinguished by  its hexagonal shapes, high specific  gravity and resinous luster.

CERUSSITE. ���=*  Sometimes called white lead ore, is  brittle, it has an adamantine luster  inclining to vitreous, resinous or  pearlv, sometimes sub-metallic. Its  color is while, gray, grayish black,  sometimes tinged blue or green. Its  streak is uncolored. It is composed of  carbon dioxide 16.5 per cent, and lead  oxide 83.5 per cent, or lead carbonate.  It i. soluble in dilute nitric acid with  effervescence. Unlike anglesite. it  effervesces iu acid. It is distinguished  by its high specific gravity and adamantine luster. It is formed from  galena, which as it passes toa sulphate  may be changed to a carbonate by  means of solutions of calcium bicarbonate.  ANGt.ESITE.  This mineral is very brittle.. Its  luster is highly adamantine iu some  specimens, in others incliuing to resinous and vicreous. Colot, white,  tinged yellow, gray, green and sometimes blue, and a streak uncolored. Its  hardness is 2.75-4, and specific gravity  6.3-6.39. Anglesite is composed of  sulphur trioxide 26 4 percent, lead oxide 73.6 per cent, being lead sulphate.  It fuses in the flame of a isndle, and  on charcoal in oxidizing flame fuses to  a clear pearl, which' on cooling becomes milk-while. With soda on charcoal in reducing flame it gives metallic  lead.  This mineral is characterized by its  high specific gravity, adamantine luster, and. unlike cerussite, it does not  effervesce in nitric acid.  It is the result of the decomposition  of galeua aud is often found in its  cavities.

First of all, the good'shop  must have, like a good watch, a main  spring���and that main spring must be I  a man who is ever on the alert, ever  watchful, lest something happen  around the place which he should fail  to see. He must be a financier, a judge  of merchandise, a cold, calculating,  business proposition, who never fails  to take advantage of every opportunity  to advance the welfare of the shop; a  genial, hale fellow.well met, who can  make himself agreeable to all; a man  who can give his orders pleasantly to  his subordinates and have them fulfil  those orders because it is a pleasure to  work for such a man.  . Second, the good shop should have  within its walls merchandise of a  character, dependable wares, and these  goods must be handled by the salespeople as tenderly as though each and  every article were a baby. They mnst  be displayed properly, in order that  they may tempt possible buyers, urge  probable buyers, and force themselves  upon people who want goods. These  goods must, too, be bought judiciously  and in accordance with the probable  demand and outlet of the special, community wherein this model shop is  situated; for many a tasteful and  otherwise good merchant has been  ruined by overbuying and thereby  having no room fora really meritorious  novelty when one is introduced.

This year's fair  opens September 24, and will last two  weeks instead of one as heretofore, aud  in every way will be more than twice  as strong. Contests between the  counties will be chief among the attractions, fer the Spokane Chamber of  Commerce has donated $2,500 for  premiums !o be given to the counties  or districts making the best exhibits of  fruits and grains so prepared that they  can be kept in a permanent exhibit.  The first prize will be SI,000 cash; the  second, $500; ���the' third, $300; Hie fourth  $200, and the balance will be divided  between the other counties and districts  exhibiting, and for the expense of, this  contest. Besides these, the fair management will give premiums amounting  to $1,500 in the fruit department.  Never before have there been sach  liberal prizes offered for this contest,  not even in the old days of the fruit  fairs, when special attention was given  to the fruit exhibits, and when there  was great rivalty between counties aud  districts. ^ These splendid premiums  will.make the fruit department.stronger than ever before and probably will  fill the main exposition building to its  fullest capacity.

A correspondent to the Similkameen  Star writes as follows on the mineraj  resources of Copper and Kennedy  mountains in the Similkameen:  "Copper and Kennedy mountains  may be considered the heart of what is  known as the great Similkameen  country. The Similkameen river takes  its rise soufh of the international  boundary line, flowing nearly due  north a distance of 55 miles to Princeton, where its volume is increased by  the Tulameen from the west. Sweeping  round past Princeton it bends southeasterly till it again crosses the international line not far from where it  flows into the Okanagan river in the  state of Washington. Within this  angle and within a margin of ten or  twelve miles,,bordering it on the outside, having as its base the international boundary line, with its apex at  Princeton and its sides flanked by the  Similkameen river, lies one of the  richest mineral areas in British Columbia, if not in the world.  "Although this marvel of mineral  timber and ideal climatic wealth, vast  water power and productive soil is  within 200 miles of the Pa< ific coast, it  has been less known to the seekers of  farms aud mines than any other part  of the province south of the Canadian  Pacific,rail.way^line.^.The_chief_ic_ause^  of this lies in the fact that it has until  recently been off the beaten route of  travel between the coast and the mining centers of the Kootenays and out  of the way of traffic going via the  Okanagan waters into the Boundary  country, now so rapidly coming, into  productive importance  "But the Similkameen will be no  longer isolated���its merits will soon be  demonstrated.

"The actual construction of two  great competing lines of railway, made  possible by the splendid initiative of  the Great Northern; the low rates thus  induced-ou ore and machinery; the  marvelous evolution in the process of  extracting values from low gn.de ore,  make this forecast a certainty. And,  still the half has not been told. There  are many additional factors besides  those 'mentioned in the way of coal  measures, fire clays and fruit land  within the area roughly stated that will  make this one of the commercial garden spots of the world."  SULLIVAN MINE  An East Kootenay Property of High  Value.  "Francis E. Armstrong of Rossland,  has on exhibtion iu his office some tine  looking specimens of galena from the  Sullivan mine, situated on th<- St.  Mary's river in East Kootenay," savs  the Miner-   "Mr. Armstrong recently  visited the Sullivan and says it is making a good profit each month, extract  ing. and putting through its smelter at  Marysville six carloads of silver-lead  ore a day. The lower levels of the  mine, which were recently opened up  under the direction of R. H. Anderson,  are developing in a most satisfactory  manner, new, large and valuable ore  shoots having been uncovered. The  shoots are so large and contain such  large quantities of ore that they insure the mine a long lifetime of profit.  The mine, he says, has been greatly  improved since R. H. Anderson took  charge of it.  "Cranbrook, Mr. Armstrong says, is  exceedingly lively. It is the lumbering  and lode mining center of East Koo'.e-  nay. The stores are well patronized  and the residents all have an air of  prosperity.. Along- the Crow's Nest line  in that vicinity every few miles there  are saw mills, and they are kept running to the limit of theircapacity. The  product of the mills i; sold, in most  instances, before it is cut.    There is a  waiting market at good prices for every  Foot of the output.  "Cranbrook has a lacrosse team that  will compare favorably with some of  the better teams in the east. So far  this season it has not been beaten.  Harry Jamieson, formerly of this city,  is one of the star players of this team  Mr. Armstrong says that the team is  anxious to secure a game with Nelson  to be played before a Rossland audience. The members are confident Ihat  they can defeat the Nelson lacrosse  contingent.  "Mr. Armstrong says that he did a  very nice business while he was away  and says he sowed the seed for a considerable harvest of business which he  expects lo reap in the future."

R. F.  Green, Chief Commissioner of  Lands aud Works, returned early  this mouth from their annual  tour of inspection of the interior of the province, aud it is grat-  trying* to he able to note that  they found conditions in general  in a highly satisfactory condition.  Particularly so was this the case  with regard to the mining- industry. The bright promise of  the commencement of the current  year is being* more than fulfilled  as the months g*o by, aud, record  3*ear for''British Columbia's mineral output Ihouyh 1'105 was,it will  have to yield its laurels to i906.  The satisfactory statements as  to the progress .of our banner  industry which were given to the  public by the Minister of Mines  on his return are more than borne  out by the reports which daily  pour in from various camps, both  old and new,���reports which tell  ot the opening of new properties,  the bonding of partially developed  showings, the resumption of  operations ou mines which have  long lain idle, the installation of  machinery and the enlargement  of plant.  Mine-owners and corporations  engaged in the mining industry  should see to it that those to  whom .he}* entrust the superintendence of their active operations are not merely men who  know their business  throughlj-���  vitally necessary though this  qualification be���but also men  possessed of some tact and at  least a modicum of common civility. Cases have been known  where men iu charge of properties���perfectly good men, but not  possessed of these two admirable  traits of character���have put  their foot iu it most grievously  when "entertaining angels unawares." An instance of this  came uuder our notice recently,  when a mining man of great  wealth and experience was very  cavalierly treated by the owner's  representatives at one of our  larger properties���so much so, indeed, that he carried away a very  unfavorable impression. This is  not at all the spirit in which  visiting miuing man from the  great republic at our doors should  be recieved by BritishColumbians,  aud, in justics be "it said,' such  incidents are rare.

MINING PARTNERSHIPS  The Elements That Constitute Their  Formation,  Where two or more persons own a  mine jointly, or as tenants in common,  there may arise between them, without  specinl contract for that purpose, the  relation of partners. This occurs  when they enter into an agreement to  work the property for their mutual  benefit and do work it, I'otttrilnitiiijr lo  the expense ami sharing- tin* profits  according to the 'interest owned by  each. The leading slistiiic.ioiis bet w *cu  mining and ordinary commercial partnerships may be considered of three  classes:  1. The doctrine of implied liability;  or the differences existing in the law  in regard to qualified or restricted lin-  bifity of the partners to third persons,  resulting- from the acts of each  other.  2. The rig-ht of one partner to sell his  interest or share without the consent  of any of the other partners, which  does not work a dissolution of the partnership. ���-    ���  3. The death of one of the partners  does not work a dissolution of the partnership.  Upon other points where there are no  oartnership articles to the contraiv,  mining- associations are governed by  the law of ordinary partnerships,  unless general mi unit*- usages or the  established practice uT a particular  company have modified the rule. A  minitifr partnership may exist as well  where the parties have an interest  merely in the working- of a mine or in  carrying- on niiiiiiit*; operations, as  where they own the mine itself. What  are commonly  known   as -'grubstake"  contracts have been held to create a  mining partnership with respect lo the  work of pi .spi-eting- andlocation. But  such arrangement must exist at the  time of discovery to give a joint interest; and if, before making any discovery or search for mines under' his first  agreement, the prospector enters into  a new arrangement with another party  for an outliv and makes a discovery  under the last arrangement, the first  agreement will ue held as abandoned  and the one who first staked the prospect cannot share in the discovery.  So, where tbe owner of an undeveloped mine agrees with another person  that if the latter will devote his labor  and skill iu exploring and developing  it, he will furnish hiin tools and provisions and give him a share in the  mine if it proves valuable, a joint  working of the mine and sharing of  t he profits by the parties after develop-  ihent will constitute a mining partnership. An agreement to engage in the  business of prospecting for -\nd the  development of lode mining property  for the joint use of all, is also iu the  nature of a partnership agreement,  and under it each party becomes the  agent of the other. An agreement,  however, on the one side, to perform  Tier faitfTteTviLre;^"ah"d*-*dn"theOTdtber-to  convey an interest in the property upon  which the labor was performed, in consideration of the work done, does not  constitute a partnership. A contract  by which a party agrees to superintend  the driving of a tunnel 'for an interest  therein does not constitute him a pait-  ner with his employers. A subscription  to shares is but an act or declaration of  the subscriber to become a partner. It  is executory only, and does not hold  him out to the public as a partner,  where he his not interfered in the concetti, because he does not by his ; ct of  subscribing acquire a right .to a share  of the profit.  But he may, by acting as a member  ot- director, or attending meetings,etc.,  or otherwise, hold himself out as a.  member, arid be liable as such, though  there be some want of the necessary  formalities or acts to make him legally  a member. Interest in profits does not  tiecer.i-.arily make a person a partner,  or liable as such. Thus, where he is  oniy interested in the profits of a business as a means of compensation he is  not a partner. In such a case his interest is not a profit in the profits as such,  but a claim against them as a fund out  of which, when ascertained, he is to De  compensated.���Ex.  Greenwood Branch  W.

So far as is known there is no clue-to  the whereaDouts of the guilty party.' ���  F. Edward Brown, formerly accountant for the Dominion Copper Co. at  Boundary Falls, has opened an office  with F.

The congregations of the Methodist  and Presbyteriau churches will hold  union services next Sunday. Rev.  M. D. McKee will preach in the Methodist church in the morning and in the  Presbyterian church in the evening.  This arrangement will be carried out  during the remainder of July, while  Rev. H.S.

This companv, which is  composed almost entirely of local business men, enjoys the distinction and  advantage of being the only- oil company in the province with a lease from  the government on oil lands.  A meeting of yonns*; men interested  in the formation of a young men's  club met at the home of Rev. M. D.  McKee last Monday night and discussed the matter. Quite a number of  young men, representing the different  churches were present and all phases  of the question were carefully considered. ' Committees were appointed to  secure more information, and the next  meeting will be held at the same place  on July 20th.  St. Jude's Hall Being Enlarged and  Repaired.  Some extensive: improvements to the  English church are now- under way.  St. Jude's hall has been moved twelve  feet to the south and raised about three  feet. A basement, the full size of the  building, will be excavated and a stone  foundation will be put in. The basement will have a nine foot ceiling and  It.is-intende'd���that it .shall eventually  be used as a Sunday Schoolroom,  though it will not. be completed at  present, but will be kept ready for finishing any time the congregation are  ready to do so.  . To the east end and fronting on the  street an addition 18x24 will be constructed. This will be used for the  chancel and will add largely to the  capacity and interior appearance of the  church. It is the intention of the  building committee to remove the  gravel walk running diagonally across  the lawn and to sod the place where  the building formerly stood, thus making two large unbroken plots of grass.  The improvements will cost some  SI,400, of which over $1,100 are in the  hands of the treasurer. When the  work has been completed St. Jude's  hall will be the most up-to-date church  buildings in the city, and a credit to  the enterprise of the pastor and congregation^   Platinum is most readily distinguished as follows: (1) By its great  weight���in panning it remains behind  even gold in the pan. (2) Its white  color���it is whiter than lead and is distinguished from amalgam by its smooth  surface, whereas the surface of amalgam, as seen under a good glass, is  rough. (3) Its resistance to nitri* acid,  as compared with native silver or lead.

BOUNDARY  OREEK ftME&h  COAL MINING IN B. C.  There was a production of 1,825,832  long tons of coal in 1905, which, compared with 1904, shows an increase of  140,134 tons. The coke manufactured  in 1905 was 271.785 tons -the largest  buatitity fin record. The exports of  coal in 1905 amounted to 673,700 tons  and of coke 117,637 tons, all to the  United States.  Although coal exists in a number of  places widely scattered, says the minister of mines in his report just issued,  the onlv coal fields actually producing  are situated on Vancouver island,  worked by the Western Fuel company,  and the Wellington Colliery company,  and in addition three collieries are being worked in the extreme southeastern  part of British Columbia by the Crow's  Nest Pass Coal company. The Vancouver island collieries  are   more than  o  able to supply the markets, but are restricted. The Crow's Nest Pass collieries appear to find a constantly increasing market, especially in *-h  United States, notably in California,  but even they suffer from inadequate  ���railway facilities and the competition  of mines in Alberta.  There were 4,407 persons employed  at the collieries in 1905, of -vhom 3,127  were underground, and 1,280 above.  Among these were 624 Chinese, who  received an average daily wage of $1.27  underground and $1.60 above; while  120 Japanese collected $1.37 underground and $1.12 above. The average  daily pay of the white population was  as follows: Supervision and clerical  assistants, $7.62 underground and $4.50  above; miners, $4.70; miners' helpers,  82.25. laborers, $2.75 underground and  $2 60 above; mechanics and skilled  labor, $2.87 and $3.60, respectively,  boys, $150 underground and $1.40  above.  Of the coal fields under development  and awaiting the railway connections,  the Nicola has received the most attention, probably due largely to the railway from Spence's Bridge, a branch  of "the Canadian Pacific, which is  almost an accomplished fact. The  Princeton coal deposits, more lignitic  in character, have been investigated,  but not materially developed. No  further development has been heard of  in the coal fields of the Upper Thompson river, or that in the vicinity of  Kamloops.  In tbe Flathead district of southeast  Kootenay prospecting for both coal  and coal oil has been carried on. ,On  the Elk river, above Michel creek, and  on the tributaries of the former, extensive coal fields, with excellent coal,  have been proved, and in 1905 were  further explored. The Crow's Nest  Pass Coal company has discontinued  mining at the Carbondale colliery,  considering it more profitable to work  the mines at Coal Creek and Michel.  The Cassiar Coal company has developed the coal deposits on the Telkwa^  some 70 miles east of Hazelton, on the  Skeena river. Semi-anthricite coal ih  large horizontal beds is found on the  Upper Skeena, about 150 miles above  --Hazelton^^1-^^^-������=-������������������==^  MINERAL ACT  "1896.  certificate of Improvements  NOTICE.

Vancouver island collieries produced  993,899 tons of coal and 15,660 tons of  coke in 1905, showing a substantial  increase as compared with the previous  year.  The Wellington Colliery company  has worked its mines on practically  the same principles as the Western  Fuel company.  The Crow's Nest Pass Coal company,  operating mines in the Eas-.t Kootenay  district, and capitalized at $3,500,000,  paying dividends, produced 831,933 tons  of coal in 1905. Of this quantity  297,828 tons were used iu the manufacture of coke, yielding 265,125 tons.  The coi_pany exported to the Unit d  State** last year 246,002 tons of coal  and 113,337 tons of coke. There  were employed in 1905 a total of 1,490  men and boys, of whom 20 were  Chinese. Of lhe total 1,015 employes  were at work underground and 475  above. The collieries are well equipped,  properly ventilated and yield . good  coal.  There were 68 mine accidents in  British Columbia in 1905; 12 proved  fatal. 30 were serious, and 26 slight  In detail the cause of these accidents  were 9 from gas explosions, 12 falls of  coal, 11 falls of rock, 20 mine can;, 5  shot or powder, 1 hoisting or hauling  ropes, 2 post or timber, and 6 miscellaneous. In 1904, when tbe coal output  was somewhat less, the accidents,  singularly, were greater by 26.

"'"  Dated this 4th day of June, 1906. Collector.'''  Progress and development are terms  closely identified with life in the West. In  a new country people are working daily  for the upbuilding of town, city and dis*'  trict, and for the improvementof the con/  ditions under which men and women are  called upon to live, Every act of daily life  that tends to bettering one's surroundings  makes directly or indirectly for the inv  provement of society generally, . In all this  the local newspaper plays an important  part. Among its local readers it stimulates  an increasing interest in their home city,  keeping them posted on all local happen/  ings, and becomes a welcome weekly  messenger, bearing bright and welcome  tidings, Amony its outside readers it  forms a valuable advertising medium  making known the merits, advantages and  prospects of the city and attracting thither  citizens who want employment, business  firms looking for locations, and capitalists  seeking investments, In the upbuilding  of a town, city or district the local paper  is an important factor.  BOUNDARY CREEK "TIMES  The Boundary Creek Times aims to do  its full and complete share in the upbuild/  ing and improvement of Greenwood and  the Boundary district. It is not handi/  capped in its work by any restraining ob/  ligations to any party, clique or corpora/  tion, but it is free at all times to rise up  and promote the best interests of the City  of Greenwood and its people. To do this  most thoroughly and satisfactorily the  Times must have the support and coopera/  tion of the citizens of Greenwood,  Every effort is being put forth to make  the Times the class of newspaper the  people want, Increasing attention is being  continually paid to mining news, especi/  ally of that nature that will interest those  employed in the work as well as those  whose capital is invested in the properties,  With this end in view we aim to have  =i e*i  ^mmtvs&rw bvery Home  As a result ofthe efforts that have already  been put forth, we believe that an increas/  interest is already being taken in its news  columns. We have evidences of this from  the fact that the subscription list is already  growing; the street sales are increasing  weekly and the news dealers find more  demand for each succeeding issue, This is  a satisfactory condition of affairs that acts  in two ways. It increases the revenue of  the circulation department and it makes the  paper a first/class advertising medium for  local business men,  In handling local advertising every effort  if put forth to protect the Greenwood mer/  chant. The local page is reserved for them  and foreign advertising has been repeatedly  refused because the advertising manager  refused to disturb the positions held by local  advertisers.  Business men of Greenwood, we are here  to protect and advertise you. We arc pro/  tecting you! Do you advertise? Read lhe  Times, subscription $2.00 per year.  B Advertise in the Times.

LABOR DAY CELEBRATION  Efforts Being: Made to Properly Observe the Day.  A movement is under way to hold a  Labor Day demonstration in Greenwood this year. Tt: is now three years  since a celebration of any kind was  held in this city, and emerprisitifr  citizens are beginuimr to feel that it's  about time an event of some kind was  held. A partial canvas has been made  of the business inter, srs of the city,  and lliose who have, interested themselves in the event have met with  inneli encouragement and several si'b-  stantial promises of financial aid have  been made ' A number of hotel keepers have been approached -ind they  have responded with liberal promises.  It is believed that the merchants will  also assist very liberally.  Acting- Mayor Run ting- iias pronounced himself iu favor of lhe proposal and a public meeting will probably be called to fully discuss th*; matter. In the event of such a meeting*  being called it is expected that the  commercial interests of the city will  be fully represented avid that a strong  c.mmittee will be appointed to secure  subscriptions and to make all arrangements. If the-celebration is successfully carried out a program, c.mpri.sing  the usual attractions, such as horse  racing, foot racing, ��� baseball, rock  drilling, tug- of war and other sports,  will be provided.  _y  ^son isro^  *  T 11   10    W  A  I L  A   C K- M:..]   u L  TE R     BLOC K  Fruits  HAVti   YOU  TRIED 'TT ?
