X X X T Ottawa, &eb. 5.���British Columbia dailies have been publishing Ottawa specials and commenting thereon, dealing with alleged changes in the government of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. Several B. C. members have been mentioned for preferment and new departments have been created." These dispatches were all interesting but unfortunately were not based on fact: no changes in the cabinet are at present contemplated. When British Columbia is given a portfolio it is not at all probable that the province will be given two cabinet ministers. Senator Templeman remains in the cabinet so long as he cares to do so and when a portfolio is available for B. C. he will be the minister in charge. Ambitious members who are casting longing eyes on cabinet positions and newspapers who publish dispatches to promote their interests are prolonging the time when B. C. will be given a department.

Golconda. Buckhorn, Crescent And Lake to Resume Work- Judge Hnllett, as agent for the Golconda Mines, Ltd., received word this week that work on the Golconda group, Smith's camp, is to be resumed shortly. The group comprises seven claims. A quartz vein from six to ten feet wide, has been stripped 'On the surface for 600 feet. There is a 50-foot shaft and a 300-foot tunnel which when extended 250 feet farther will tap the vein at depth. The values are iri gold and run from $12 to. $30 per ton. The group can soon be made a shipper. The principal shareholders are Hon. Geo. E. Foster, Toronto, F. P. Buck, Sher- brooke, and Rufus Pope, Cookshire. J. C. Hass, M. E., was one of the original owners. The shareholders in the Buckhoru Co., owning the Buckhorn group, Deadwood camp, will meet |at Cookshire on the 22nd inst., when it is understood arrangements will be made to resume operations. The group is a high grade copper-gold proposition. Its shareholders include Messrs. Pope, and Bucke. Judge Hallett was also advised that the Crescent and Lake mines'in Skylark camp are to resume work immediately The Crescent is on a shipping basis, adjoins the Coro-Canadian, and has $3000 worth of ore on the dump. It is vested in the Chicage-B. C. Mining Co., Harry Shallenberger, of Spokane, being a large shareholder. The Lake group, west of the Crescent group, comprises the Lake, Yellowstone, Idaho, Yellowstone fraction, and Don Pedro. It has numerous workings from which high grade ore can be shipped, PLANS FOR BIG PLANT B. C. Copper Co. to Increase Capacity to 1800.

Other conservative leaders are fearful that the searchlight will be turned on because they realize that their party leaders would be connected with the great conspiracy.

The Canadian Manufacturers Association are putting up a strong lobby against Ralph Smith's union-label bill.

I * - The "liro'olclyn'and* Phoenix hotels, Dominion avenue, Phoenix, were totally destroyed by fire Tuesday forenoon; loss 515,000, partially insured. At one time it appeared as if the whole block would go and also the postoffice block opposite. Bnt volunteer hose companies kept the fire to the two hotels mentioned. Considerable loss was sustained to the Mint hotel near the Phoenix and to goods moved from the zone of the fire. The Brooklyn hotel was owned by James Marshall and E. P. Shea, was a three story structure and cost them about S7000. They had $2000 insurance. The Phoenix hotel was owned by mayor Rumberger, now in the east, and was partially insured. It was occupied by W. L. Dunn and Mrs. S. A. McCormack, whose loss on contents, is-totalv^J-^Hv-Gryham^has^SlOOO insurance on the Mint hotel. The leserve water' tanks of the Granby works were drawn on and the firemen had a hard time confining the flames to the corner where the fi.e started. There were some narrow escapes, as a dozen men were asleep in the burning buildings when the flames broke out at 10 o'clock. The Brooklyn hotel will be rebuilt. A paragraph in our last is&ue stated thktJ. E. McAllister, superintendent of the British Columbia Copper Co's smelter, was leaving next day for New York for the purpose of conferring with the board of directors respecting the question of the enlargement of the plant. From the company's standpoint the announcement seems to have been a little premature. Fredric Keffer. general manager of the company, was interviewed yesterday by the Times in regard to the intentions of the board of directors. "It is quite true, "said Mr. Keffer," that the board for some time past has been seriously considering the question of enlarging the scope ot the company's smelting and mining operations. : Accordingly, plans for four new furnaces, with an approxmate daily capacity of 1800 tons were prepared recently. "Representatives, of ��� various . rjou works were likewise invited to submit0 tenders for constructing and installing this'proposed plant. Mr. McAllister is now enroute to New York. If the plans are adopted no doubt an official announcement will shortly be made on behalf of the board of directors- A change in the ore bins in order 'to facilitate the handling of the ores is also contemplated. The proposed furnaces would be of a much larger type than those now in use and it is likely that the old furnaces, two in number, would, under these circumstances, be discarded. 'In the event of the board approving the programme for enlargement, the new plant should be in operation late next fall."

Startling- But True* People the world over were horrified on learning of the burning of a Chicago theater in which nearly six hundred people lost their lives, yet more than five times this number or over 3,000 people died from pneumonia in Chicago during the same year, with scarcely a passing notice. Every one of these cases of pneumonia resulted from a cold and could have been prevented by the timely use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. A great many who had every reason to fear pneumonia have warded it off by the prompt use of this remedy. The following is ati instance of this sort: "Too much cannot'be said in favor of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and especially for colds and influenza.

Just what proportions the movement will assume cannot be defined but the indications point to the employment this year of more miners than at any period for the past six years. The absence of the stock jobber and mining promoter, features so conspicuous in the old days, augur -well for the future of the camp. By a natural process of evolution the exploitation of the low grade properties is being left to companies with large capital, men with smaller means finding scope for their abilities in developing the high grade quartz veins with which this camp has been especially favored. At this writing seventeen high grade proposi- The recent high tribute paid the Boundary country by M. M. Johnson, the eminent mining- engineer, cannot fail to arouse fresh interest in our enormous mineral resources. The name Of Mr. Johnson is one that carries weight not only throughout the United States but in European investing centres. Mr. Johnson's visit here has already attracted no little attention from the financial press of the Eastern states. The Boston News Bureau, stated that his mission to the Boundary was on. behalf of the Guggen- heims, the virtual head of the American smelter trust. These millionaire operators, according to the same journal, -have virtually acquired control of the Montreal & Boston Co., owning some of the leading copper-gold properties of this district. Hitherto the present management has met its payroll and other obligations with unfailing regularityt and is consequently held in high esteem. It is likely. however, that the transfer of the control to the Guggenheim's would lead, to the adoption of a policy calculated to threaten the supremacy of the Granby and British Columbia Copper companies. The Socialists have introduced a bill in the provincial legislation providing for an eight hour day for smelter employees. Premier McBride's solicitude for the third party will soon be put to the test. In a measure of such vital importance the government cannot evade the issue, but must declare its attitude. It begins to look as though the Socialistic friends of Mr. McBride have got him treed at last. Manager McVicar of the Last Chance mine has made good his his promises to maintain a weekly output of fifty tons. Last week he actually exceeded his estimate by nine tons. This enviable record, which will be increased rather than diminished, places the L?st Chance at the head of high grade producers.

There seems, to be a growing sentiment in favor of the erection of a concentrator in Greenwood for the purpose of handling the high grade ores of this camp. While none of the smaller mines would be justified in undertaking the-enterprise���single-handed,���a- plan for collective action could easily be devised. We understand that the cost of erecting a plant designed to handle an output of 100 tons daily, would .not exceed $25,000, and the results to be secured by concentrating the ores would soon re-coup the mine owners in the way of the saving to be effected by shipping a concentrated product. This proposed method, it is obvious, would also do away with the method now in vogue of sorting and cobbing the ores. There is an abundance of -water in Boundary Creek at all seasons of the year for a plant such as is proposed. The erection of a concentrator would also tend to lead to the development of medium-grade ore bodies which cannot now be mined and shipped at a profit. Jt is the next natural step iu the evolution of this camp, and should be taken without delay. Greenwood will be advertised by its failure to be represented at the meetiug- of the Associated Boards of Trade at Nelson next week. It.is, however, not a very desirable kind of an advertisement for the leading centre of the interior. LP** mining "The long succession of deficits has not been broken, although in some instances the rate of taxation has been more than doubled" is the way the Victoria Times sizes up the financial statement of the McBride government.

Munroe & IVEunroe, the fiscal agents in New York for the syndicate which underwrote 700.000 shares of stock of the Montreal & Boston Consolidated Mining & Snielting Co., at951 per share has not directly involved that company. The facts are that the Munroc- with their Canadian associates, had succeeded in purchasing the Dominion group of properties in Phoenix, B. C, because of a disagreement between the owners, James Breen, of Spokane, and Messrs. Mackenzie and Mann. Cash to the amount of 5482,000 was to be paid for tbe properties, $266,000 down, and the balance, or 5216,000, payable in eighteen instalment, of $12,000 per month. At the same time they paid $60,000 for the Athelstan property upon which $10,000 is still due, then the underwriting syndicate, in addition to providing cash for the purchase of these properties was to place $150,000 cash in the treasury for working capital. The above would have required the raising of $700,000, which was represented by 700,000 shares of stock underwritten at $1 per share. Operations were only carried on three mouths last year and with one furnace there was produced 900,000 lbs of copper, 1000 ozs. of silver and. 3200 ozs. of gold. Beginning with the new year, however a second furnace was placed in operation so that the companj- is now producing about 600,000 lbs. of copper per month, which should net it about $25,000. A third furnace is is about set up. It is planned to add a fourth furnace during the year which would permit of a monthly production of 1,200,000 lbs..of copper.

' Unless )-ou want to.'g-o into it exlensivoly it need take but very little'of your time. Government reports show that the demand for chickens in Canada is greatly in excess oP'the stippl)* and Great' Britain is always clamoring for more. That means a steady market ancl g-ood prices for chickens. You cannot raise chickens successfully with a setting- hen. She is wasting- lime setting- when she should be. laying. While she -is hatching- and brooding- a few chickens she could bo laying- five or six dozen eg-g's. The percentag-c of chickens she hatches is much less than that produced by the Chatham Incubator. It will pay you to own a Chatham Incubator. Chatham Incubators contain every improvement of importance in Incubator construction that, has been produced. They are made of thoroughly seasoned wood, with two walls, case within case. Between these wails mineral wool is packed forming the very best insulation. Each piece of the case is mortised and grooved and screwed, making the whole as solid as a rock. Chatham Incubators are equipped with scientifically perfect regulators which are an -infallible means of regulating- the temperature. li te -pay until er, ? isiv We will start you raising poultry for profit with a Chatham Incubator ���without one cent of money from you until next Fall. That means that j-ou can take off seven or eight hatches and make considerable money out of the Incubator before the first payment becomes due. We couldn't make this offer if .we were not certain that if j'ou accept it you will get complete satisfaction, if we were not positive that the Chatham Incubator will pay you a. handsome yearly income.

This is taken to show that the new well is even a butter ptoposi- tion than the town's 1.000-foot, well, which yields one and one-eight minion feet of natural gas every 24 hours. The Bay mine was examined this week on behalf of Phoenix .parties; and also for Minnesota people. The electric engine is now hauling hot slag at the local smelter. It is understood that W. T. Hunter, who recently purchased the "Winnipeg mine, has bonded it to the Granby company. The tunnel on the Betts and Hesperus, Hardy mountain, is in 75 feet and will shortly tap the big ore body exposed on the surface. . On Tuesday W. T. Hunter, of this city, received from 7buncati Mcintosh and associates $5000 cash, being the third payment on account of the purchase price of the E. P. U. mine. Two additional payments hava yet +o be made. It is understood that Mr, Hunter has already received one half of the purchase price,' ai amount that was principally derived from the ore shipments since la*ot September when Mr. Mcintosh assumed charge of the property. Mr. Mcintosh secured this property on a worl.iug bond and is associated with North Dakota capitalists. The E. P. U. is now regarded as one of the best mines in the camp. It has 21 men on its payroll.

The work of installing this plant has stretched over two years, and while progress has been siow it has been none the less sure. A better location for a water power' plant could not be found, for there is no e ui to the energy running to waste, and the ability of the company to furnish power is only limited to the demand. The capacity of the plant .an be readily increased, and wh��n once in operation the demand for power will grow. Like all enterprises started in this remote and hard to get at region the company, has met with many set backs and drawbacks, but perseverance and energy on the part of J. M, Hagerty, the promoter, has won out in the long run. At the present time a force is pushing work as rapidly as possible in order to get out of the way of high water always duejin the spring months. Mr. Andi'tis informs us that the excavations in the wheel pit are complete, and the forms for laying the' concrete wall are built and the concrete is now going up. Afraid of Strong Medicines- Many people suffer for years from rheumatic pains, and prefer to do so rather than take the strong medicines usually given for rheumatism, not knowing that quick relief from pain may be had simply bv applying Chamberlain's Pain Balm and without taking any medicine internally. Rev. Amos Parker of'Magnolia, North Carolina, suffered for eight years with a lame hip, due to severe rheumatic oains. He has oeen permanently cured by the free application of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. For sale by all druggists. . .CAR OF NEW..
