Pick Came in Contact With a Missed  Hole,  A tragic fatality occurred at the  Senator mine, Summit camp, last Sunday morning- at 7:30 resulting.in the  death of John Byrnes and the injury  of John Rogers, the foreman, and two  miners, Arthur Marshall and Charles  Bolt. The accident was due to the  explosion of a missed hole. It is supposed that Byrnes' pick struck the  dynamite.  Mr. Rogers, who was standing immediately behind Byrnes at the time,  received some ugly cuts about the  head and other parts of the body. �� His  wounds, however, are riot of a serious  uature, and he is now able to sit up in  bed at his home at Grand Forks.  Arthur Marshall and Charlie Bolt  were also slightly injured. A fourth  manj named Steele, escaped without a  scratch.  The force of the explosion was so  great that it shattered the pick Mr.  Byrnes was using at, the time, of the.  accident.' Byrnes': head was7 nearly  severed from his shoulders, and he was  otherwise badly mangled.  Dr. Ndrthrop was immediately summoned, arriving at the scene of "the  accident about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and did everything possible to  relieve the suffering of the injured  men.  Coroner Kingston was also notified.  He decided that an inquest would be  unnecessary, as it was a case of purely  accidental death.  The remains of Byrnes were taken  to Grand Forks, and interment took  place there Tuesday.  Deceased leaves a brother, Patrick,  employed at the Brooklyn mine, Phoenix, and a sister in the Coeur d'Alene,  Idaho, country. He was a native of  Kentucky and was highly respected.  LOCAL NEWS.

Last Ctiance Takes Front Rants as  Largest Producer.  Six mines in the local high grade  belt'shipped 250 tons of first class and  20 tons of second class ore during the  month of January. This surpasses all  previous records in the history of ,the  camp. These figures have been carefully compiled and may be regarded as  official.  The figures in detail are as follows:  Providence, 30 tons of -first class and  20 tons of second class ore; Elkhorn,  SO tons of first class ore; Last Chance,  43 tons of first class ore; Skylark, 20  tons of first class ore; Bay, 42 tons of  first class ore; E.F.U., 65 tons of first  class ore.  '  Large as these figures appear, they  promise to be almost doubled this  month as the Last Chance, employing  fourteen men, is about to [maintain  shipments of SO tons weekly. The  comparatively small output or. this  mine during January was due tothe  decision of the management to permit  the ore to accumulate on the dump,  pending arrangements 7fof a more'  favorable treatment rate. Henceforth  the Last Chance ore will be reduced at  the local smelter. The7 Providence  will also make a better showing as  operations were suspended for" several  weeks last month whilst the boiler was  being overhauled. The Providence, it  is stated, has now larger and richer ore  reserves thanat any period in its history. A noteworthy event was the'  discovery of the ore after crosscutting  through dykes on the 300 and 400 foot  levels; and likewise the" occurence pf  free gold on the former level.  Phil McDonald and James Sutherland are also entitled to hearty congratulations for the success they are  achieving with theElkhorn.A shipment  of 50 tons last month netted the high  net average of $147 per ton, according  to the smelter returns received from  -TraiUthis^veek.^^The^lcyl^k^ence^  forth will also largely increase its out- .'  put as the force has just been increased and drifting will be carried on  simultaneously. Duncan Mcintosh is  making good his determination to  place the E.P.U. in the front rank of  producers. Under his management  the mine is said to have been vastly  improved within the past few months  and the shipments now only rank  second in volume to those of the Last  Chance.    ���    .      ,i   '  The average value of last month's  output of first class ore from these  mines is conservatively estimated at  $100 per ton, and the second grade ore  amounting to 20 tons, is valued at $25  per ton.  The Strathmore mine will make a  carload shipment of first class ore,this  month, and thereafter will rank among  the regular shippers. The Barbara,  Coro-Canadian, Silver Cloud and Combination are expected soon to join the  procession. C. J. McArthur, of this  city, is executing contracts for hauling  ore from all the producers, with two  exceptions. There is every reason to  believe that Mr. McArthur will be  obliged to increase his equipment in  order to meet new and expanding conditions.  There are 145 miners employed in  mines and prospects in the high grade  belt. -,' *.-'  Don't forget "Your Neighbor's wife"  at the Auditorium Thursday night.

This great tract of  land has been used simply as a stock  ranch, where thousands of head of  cattle were pastured.

Surveyors have been already put at the  work of dividing the land, and as a  block is marked out it will be open for  purchase.  When this land is occupied by contented and prosperous families it will  mean much for the whole Okanagan,  for where there was but one huge  ranch there will now be hundreds, and  as most of the land is said to be of the  best and is well adapted for fruit raising (including apples, pears, peaches,  plums, etc.), and mixed farming, a  faint idea can be seized of the transformation that is to take place. It  practically, means a new section added  to the province, another little garden  of Eden for those who wish to change  from the rigor of an eastern or Northwest winter, and attendant hardships,  to the glorious, healthful, equable climate of British Columbia.    The people  of the valley, particularly the southern  portion thereof, are greatly pleased  that the Ellis pioperty is to be cut up  and developed. Then conditions will  all be changed for the better as regards  schools, churches, transportation, etc.,  and the benefits that a fuller civilization generally bestows. It will also  mean that canning factories will be  put in operation, probably at Pentieton, where the company -will have a  townsite, thereby furnishing a means  for the disposal of fruits, etc., that are  now marketed in Manitoba, the great  Northwest and other places.  Messrs. Shatford Bros., accompanied  by Mr. Ellis, left last week tor Pentieton to arrange matters locally, the  company having purchased all the  stock and farming machinery. There  are 4,000 head of cattle, besides horses,  sheep and hogs on the place, and these  will be disposed of by degrees. After  the winter feeding is over there will  still be left 2000 tons of hay. It will  be seen that Messrs. Shatford Bros."  who are to be the managing directors  foj a period of five years, have a big  ^corfcern-_o"look"a_terr^=^  YOUR NEIGHBOR'S WIFE  Which opens for Thursday,  February.'.9th... The play is a  comedy drama in three act by  Chas. Ellis,. which provides  Master Dun bar, the greatest child actor  on the American stage, as Buster  Brown, with just the sort of speeches  that sounds funny when he delivers  them, but would not if spoken by anyone else. The repetition of certain  aside remarks which he interjects parenthetically and in the most irrelevent  way as in "Little Lord Fauntleroy"  and other vehicles, contributes much  to the nu-rriiiient of his scene. Instead  of this little squibs and quirks becoming flat and stale they sound funnier  the often they are repeated in the  inimitable tones of Master Dunbar  who is ably assisted by James T. Mc-  Govern as Happy Hooligan. The  musical numbers compel the owner,  Mr. Hugh Ettinger, to carry a band  and orchestra of solo players. ��� The  free concert givea by these clever  musicians on lhe above- date in the  afternoon and evening in front of the  opera house is well worth coming miles  to hear.

The soothing and healing properties  of this remecty, its pleasant taste and  prompt and permanent cures have  made it a favorite with people everywhere. It is especially prized by  mothers of small children, for colds,  croup and whooping cough, as it always affords quick relief, and as it  contains, no opium or other or other  harmful drug, it may be given as confidently to a baby as an adult. For  sale by a'.l druggists.  Messrs. Robt. Lamson and J. Rooke,  of Killarney, Man., have recently been  looking over the well known fruit farm  of VV. H. Covert, west of Grand Forks.  They were evidently well pleased with  what they saw and what they learned  of the enormous fruit profits made here  for they quickly closed contracts for  several ten acre blocks of five year old  orchard at a price of over $11,000.  Other sales to Manitobans and others  during last month and this month will  aggregate over $25,000. These sales  were put through by Smith Curtis, of  Rossland, and R. F. Langford, of  Winnipeg, who have disposed of practically all of this fine young orchard,  and at S250 per acre. The market for  fruit is almost unlimited, and prices  high, and will be so for many years.  As an example of the high profits made  in fruit here, mention may be made of  the fact that the net profit in 1904 after  paying for all labor and expenses of  every kind from eight acres on Mr.  Covert's mature orchard was actually  over S325 per acre.

"have to be expended before a siit.icieii'.  .ore body to mine  can   be determined.  ".The mine manager- qr 'superintendent  "must stand  between the impatient and  ���often uncomprehending' stockholder  and his work and justify his calls for  money -by  intelligent optimism.     He  ���works'oh in hope and finally can an-,  nounce-"' that He is ready to show uuur-  ible results*for his work  and   espendi-  ���ture.     Since failure to make a mine is  charged   against   the   manager   often  when pnly nature is to blame the situ  ation requires  a certain kind of eour-  -age not called for in many businesses.  Then  again  work   must   be   planned  *ahead of the present demands and here  again faith is necessary. There are.  tpo, repeated failures in exploration  arid the uncontrollable limits to the ore  body which would discourage n man  not of optimistic character.  ;��� John Stanton, who is considered an authority on the copper  market, .says that copper at be-  . tween 15 and 16 cents a pound is  on a fair basis-for both producer  and consumer. He does not predict 16-cent copper, but savs he  would not be surprised to see it.  The output for 1905, this authority says, will show about the  usual ten per cent, increase.  Palouse  Capitalists Acauire a Substantial Interest.  J. F. Richardson, Wm. Schluting,  Colfax, Wash., and James Gorman,'  Spokane, representing a Colfax syndicate, have acquired a substantial interest in the Strathmore mhie. The  deal, which involves aboutSlo.OOO, was  negotiated'by F. H. Knight, of Grand  Forks." On Saturday last the visitors  made an exhaustive examination of the  property. A sample of orr taken  across the vein gave an assay value of  Sl+7 per ton. The deal puts the treasury in splendid shape.  C. Scott-Galloway, who has charge  of development, intends to make a considerable increase the working force  shortly. Besides drifting and stoping  the extension of the long tunnel to tap  the lead at depth will likely be undertaken. Two men are now extracting  seventeen sacks of ore daily. A cat-  load shipment will be made this  month.  CURLING*  Two rinks from Greenwood are competing in the annual bonspiel of the  Kootenay Curling Association now- in  progress'af Nelson.

Contract work on the new double  compartment shaft for the Montreal &  Bpston Lancashire Lass claim, in  Summit camp, has been nearly finished. The shaft was sunk on the large  ore body.  . Development work on the Smilax  group was started this week. Fifteen  properties are now being operated in  the local high grade belt, The Gold  Bug and Goldfinch will also join the  list this month.  The Silver-Lead Mine Owners' Association appointed a committee to draft  the draft the views of the association  on the question of mine taxation. The  association has directed the committee  to recommend that the taxation of  mines be based on a percentage of the  gross value of the output of the mines,  taking the smelter assay as the value.  , While the sixth furnace at the Granby smelter has been idle owing to  power shortage generally, it has been  prepared for the new electric charging apparatus,the machinery for which  has been shipped from the factory in  the east, and is due at any time now,  "The^entife^batteTy^df six'fiirnaWs will  be operated in this manner when the  machinery arrives., being another important element in reducing the cost of  smelting operations at this smelter,  The following official statement is  given out by the Granby company: "It  is the intention of the Granby company  the coming year to install two more  blast furnaces. The Granby smelter  has six furnaces at present, and is  smelting about 50.000 tons of ore per  month. These six furnaces are all of  the same dimensions, 160x42 inches at  the tuyeres. The two new furnaces  which are to be installed (contracts  having already been let! are to be 207  inches long and 46 inches wide at the  tuyeres. This will bring the smelter  capacity up to 70.000 or 75,000 tons per  month and will naturally increase the  copper production. The entire smelting system is being remodelled on a  new plan introduced and tried by general superintendent A B. W. Hodges.  The furnaces will be charged by an  automatic charging car, which will  take the ore direct from the ore. bins  and place it in the furnaces. General  Superintendent Hodges figures on having the new furnaces and other equipment, which incluie the required num  ber of blowers and motors, also a large  brick stack aud exiension for the flue  chamber, ready by the 1st of July and  the Granby capacity from then on will  be from 72,000 to 75,000 tons of ore per  month. The copper production will  increase accordingly, and the output  from that time on will be at the rate of  20,000,000 tb 22,000,000 pounds a year  The converter plant is ���. Iso being  doubled.".  An electric locomotive was  installed  this week in No 3 tunnel of the Granby  . The Skylark this week shipped two  carloads of orej one of first class and  the other second class quality.

Scott Galloway.  The West Fork has tour shippers  this winter, namely, the Sally, Rambler, Carmi and Butcher Boy. The  ore is hauled to Midway and thence  despatched to the Trail smelter.  On the Meadowlark surface trenching is being done a few hundred feet  from the Skylark claim in order to  catch the Skylark lead., The workings  of the Skylark are only 200 feet from  the Meadowlark line.  been- determined, The strike is regarded as important as the ore in the  .13.C. occurs in the same manner, lyintr  between alternating, .planes 'of porphyry. Mr. Moffatt is naturally elated  over the strike ashehas nev er f a 1 tered in  his determination to make Rathnmllen  a dividend payer. On the Maple Leaf  claim of the same group is installed a  boiler, pump and hoist which will  shortly be removed to the Reliance  claim. A shipment of 33 tons of ore  in two grades was made to the smelter  last September. It was extracted from  the shaft and from the drift at the .50  foot level.

A tunnel has  been run from a point some distance  down the hill from the quarry so'as to  go ,under it and form a funnel into  which the ore will be dumped.and  drawn off from the bottom, This will  cheapen mining operations. The  Mountain Rose ore contains large  quantities of sulphur and is very valuable as a flux.  Chas. Peterson is developing the St.  Lawrence, situated above Anaconda  to the southeast. The shaft is now  down nearly 70 feet. Two drifts have  been run to the east. The upper one  is driven about 15 feet in on the lead  from a point 30 feet down the shaft.  No work is being done on this at present. The work of running the lower  drift is now going on and it. is in over  25 feet from the shaft The ore has  just been struck and looks very promising. It appears that the two distinct  leads so far discovered are coming together here and it is expected that if  they join the value of the ore will be  much increased. A small winze is at  present being sunk at the end of this  drift on the ore.  L. H. Moffatt of Rowland, secretary-  treasurer of the Rathnmllen group,  Summit camp, was in town Wednesday. He stated that a rich strike was  recently made at the bottom of an 80  foot shaft sunk on the Reliance claim.  The ore is identical.with.that from the  11. C- mine, the adjoining property,  and runs 820 per ton in copper arid  gold. As it is self-fluxing in character  the'Mother Lode smelter has quoted  Mr. Moffatt an exceptionally favorable  freight and treatment rate. An experimental shipment .will be made  shortly. The workings are situate  only half a mile from the B. C. mine:  spur, there being a down grade all the  way and the cost of building a w-��gon  r-^ad to the railway will not cost more  than $100. Development work on the  Reliance has been in progress since  last June. The shaftextended through  good looking ore until the 50 foot level  was reached. From this level a drift  was run through a large body of iron  sulphide self-fluxing ore. Later the  shaft wss extended to the 80 foot level.  After going through a plane of porphyry from sixteen to eighteen feet in  thickness, sulphide ore, similar to that  of the B. C. mine, was encountered.

IS A GERM  DISEASE  KILL THE  DANDRUFF  GEKM  WITH   NEWBRO'S  HERPICIDE  "Destroy the Cause. You Remove the Effect"  Prof. Um-ici, the noted dermatologist of Hamburg-, Germany,  was tlie first to discover that the underlying cause of dandruff, itching' scalp and falling hair is a.-germ or microbe  that infests the hair follicle.  Drs. Lassor and Bishop denuded a rabbit of its fur by  inoculating -with dandruff germs taken from a human scalp.  Dr. Sabourand, a recognized authority, says, "Baldness*is a  contagious disease, caused .by a ' microbe." NEJWBRO'S  HERPICIDE absolutely destroys' this scalp microbe, thus  permitting the hair to grow luxuriantly aud abundantly, as  nature intended.  "Destroy the Cause, You Remove the Effect."
