Three shifts are employed at the Helen, and drifting is going on at the 8o-foot and 200-foot levels. Granby smelter treatment for the first full month of 1906 lacked but five tons of being an even 75,000 tons. Diamond drilling by the 13. C. Cop per Co. at the Sun-et mine in the Sim- ilkameen has been discontinued for the time being. A force of twenty men is now employed at the Oro Denoro, and this week twenty-four cars were shipped to the smelters. Development work has been resumed on the Iron Clad claim in Wellington camp, owned by G. W. Rumberger, \V. |. Portei and Jack Karrell. Ore from the Napoleon mine, near Marcus, and from ihe Oro Denoro is now being received at the Boundary Falls smelter of the Dominion Copper Co. Work on the new four compartment shaft at the Mother I.ode mine has reached a point 60 feet below the ;oo- foot level, and Umbering has been completed that far. Knight & Stone, of the Spokane >iamond Drill Contracting Co., have started work on their contract for boring a thousand feet of holes in the Betts and Hesperus. Work is first being clone in the face of the 700-foot tunnel. No time is being lost in preparing the foundations for the new ore crusher for the Gjanby mines, a large force of men being employed by the carpenter foreman, Harry Pleasance. The freight on one of the cars of crushei machinery, two of which arrived this week, was an item' of about $2,000 alone. Fifteen Patients In Hospital. This week the auxiliary hospital over the city hall was consolidated with the main hospital, and there are now but filteen patients being treated. The extra nurses which had been employed have nearly all gone, there >eing but lour now all told in the institution. At one time the hospital had 1 7 employees. The typhoid fever outbreak has been piactically stamped out, nearly all the patients being convalescent and well along towards recovery. The prospects for mining and smelt- in the Boundary for the year now well started, show that much new work will be undertaken in, both low a 11J high grade properties under operation, with others expected to resume, and that the smelting capacity of the three Boundary reduction works will probably be increased from 25 to 40 per cent before the year is closed. At present the daily output of ore runs pretty close to 4,000 tons, and from contracts already awarded for smelters' enlargement, it will be between 4,500 and 5,500 tons daily by the end ofthe year. Referring specifically to concerns that will enlarge, the British Columbia Copper Co., operating its two furnace smelter atGieenwood and the Mother Lode group of mines, Deadwood camp, has already awarded contracts for the installation of three blast furnaces of a larger type than any now in commission in Canada, as noted heretofore. Work on remodelling the present plant is to start in the early spring, and when completed the company's copper output will be more than doubled. At the same time the company will discard steam for motive power a! its mines and install an electric equipment, as is now the case at the reduction works, all of which tends to greater economy in working. The company will also operate its Emma mine, in Summit camp, on a larger scale, improvements having recently been made there, with a view to installing elec trical equipment later. The Granby Consolidated, which paid a dividend of - $405,000 two weeks ago, said to be the first of regular distributions of this nature, is operating eight furnaces at its Grand Forks smelter. Two of these axe larger than the others, but it is the intention to enlarge the other six as soon as practicable. The output is now from 2,500 to 2,700 tons of ore from the company's mines daily, which will naturally be increased to some extent. The maximum smelting capacity is now 2,700 tons daily, but with e:ght furnaces in commission, some one of them are naturally under repair part ol the time. It is Supt. Hodges' intention to enlarge the smaller furnaces so that he can regularly smelt 2,700 tons or more daily and yet allow for needed repairs occasionally���without increasing the number of furnaces. At the Granby mines in Phoenix camp, expansion is steadily going on while the regular quota of ore is being shipped. In the spring the new main three-compartment incline shaft will break through to the surface, and the 250-h. p. electric hoist, capable of lifting five ton loads from a depth ol 1,000 feet or more, will be installed. This is now being manufactured in the east. This week a new huge ore crusher, with a maximum rated capacity of crushing 3,000 tons ol ore in 24 hours, arrived at the pioperty, the third to be installed. This will go in on the C.P R. tracks, and will take the place of a similar machine destroyed by fire last December. | At the G.anby's Gold Drop and Monarch claims, adjoining the main group, preparations have been under way for some time for taking out and shipping a large tonnage ol ore. At the the former a side track has been put in by the C.P.R. and ore bins built by the Granby people, which are connected with the No. 3 tunnel at the Gold Drop by a 000 foot tramway. In another month the Gold Drop will be cieased shipments is the Denote Mines, Ltd., opeiating the Oro Denoio mine in Summit camp. The shipments are now being increased to about 200 tons of ore dailv, th- mine having sioings on both the C.l' K. and Gieat Northern tracks, boili of which cross the property. Here also the ore is cheaply quarried out ol" the hillside. Other lowgrade piopeittes are also be ing developed with encouraging results, but aie not yet iu shipping class. High Grade Mines Prosperous. In Boundary's high grade b��lt, as it is known, are a number of mines of no little promise. Around the city of Gieenw od there are probably a scoie of such mines being worked, generally with good success. The lending mine of this class is the Providence, which is developed to the 500 foot level, and is shipping high grade silver and gold ore every week. It is controlled in Chicago, has a compressor and other machinery, and is sending out ore that runs all the way from $150 to $200 and more per ton. Next in importance to the Provid ence in this list is the Skylark, located in the camp of the same name, less than three miles from Phoenix. This is one of the oldest shippers in Boundary, having sent out ore in 1893, and then been practically abandoned for years. A little over a year ago a Phoenix syndicate secured a bond on the claim from the Butte owner, and have been working it with remarkable success ever siiice, meeting the payments on the bond from the net proceeds of the ore shipments and most of the expense besides. It 1 u.is high in gold and silver and has more ore blocked out today than ever before, though shipments are steadily maintained. The Elkhorn is another high grade mine, being steadily operated with with success and profit. It is located next to the Providence. Many of the same people in the Elkhorn are in the Prince Henry, a new mine, compari- tively, but which has shipped and is showing up well. The Crescent mine is still another high grade silver producer that has ample backing from Chicago, as well as the Preston adjoining. Other claims being worked of not little promise are the Helen, Don Pedro, Last Chance, Jewel, Gold Bug, Gold Finch, etc. Electric hoists have been recently installed at the Elkhorn and Preston and are being, or will be, put in at the Crescent and Prince Henry, while the Helen has an air compiessor. Up in the West Fork the high grade Sally and Rambler mines are working steadily and shipping as best they can, being some 50 miles from the railway at Midway. But with the probable advent of transportation this year these claims, with the Carmi aud other high grade properties in that district, will add considerably to the value of the output of the Boundary. Franklin camp, also, this year will be heard from favorably, and considerable work will be done there in anticipation of securing a railway up the North Fork either this year or next. Looking over the field of mining and smelting in the Boundary, the opening year gives every evidence of no little expansion in almost every direction, with the promise that the 1905 output of approximately 933,000 tons ol ore will be exceeded in 1906 in no small degree HAD UROE ATTENDANCE At Annual General Hospital Meeting. NEW POWER NOW IN USE Over $8,000 Received and Paid Out. Granby Smelter Received it This Week in shape to add its ore to the general ;ene. ink! shipments from the Granby, and spring a "glory hole" or open quarty will be opened on the property. At this property another huge crusher may be installed this year. On the Monarch, in addition is the open work done last year, a shaft has been sunk 100 feet in the tremendous oie body, and crosscutting is now going on. This property can also add hugely to the Gianby output when needed. The third company operating low grade mines on an extensive scale is the Dominion Copper (Jo., Ltd., the principal mines of which are located in Phoenix camp, and two-furnace smel ter at Boundary Falls. This smelter, after an idleness of several months, was blown in about December ist last, and both furnaces are now in operation to the fullest capacity, together with the several mines of the company. Recently the company decided on an issue of additional ticastiiy stock and bonds, for the put pose ot erecting a new smelting works with greater capacity than at present. This will doubtless be taken up and acted on this year, as the company is now in good hands aud has the backing of a strong New York and Salt Lake syndicate, New I. 0. 0. T. Officials.

Thursday evening the annual general meeting of the Phoenix General Hospital was held at the office of the secretary, J. L. Martin, Bank Block, according to official notice. President Charles D. Hunter occupied the chair and Mr. Martin was secretary of the meeting. There was the best attendance ever held in the history of the institution, showing the increasing interest being taken in the hospital by the citizens generally. About thirty were present, including a number of ladies, business men and members of the Miners' Union. Following the reading of the minutes of the last annual meeting, the report of the auditing committee, Geo. E. Dey and C. H. Reeves, was read by Mr. Dey, and was accepted and filed. It snowed that every dollar had beeen accounted for, and that up tu December 31st $8,943.37 had been received and paid out during the year 1905, wich the exception of $513 on hand, which would be used up in securing a car of coal and in paying interest on mortgage. Secretary Martin then read his report of the hospital for the year, which proved to be a more than usually interesting document in many ways He told how the hospital had started out about four years ago with a building that had a $2,000 mortgage thereon, but without furniture or fittings of any kind; and how it had, through the generosity of the people of this and other places, been able tb do so much good work for the suffering. He paid a high compliment to the nursing staff and to the Hospital Ladies' Aid. Mr. Martin was thanked by the meeting, as were'also the Ladies' Aid and staff of the hospital, and there was a general discussion of the report and work of the institution. Drs. Gordon and Boucher also referred to the good work of the nurses, and the nursing staff, through W. S. Macy, presented Mr. Martin with a fine silk umbrella as a token of their appreciation of his efforts on behalf of the institution during the last twelve months. F. Knott and A. S. Thurber spoke on behalf of the Miners' Union. The election ot directors resulted as follows: R. Horrell. J. L. Martin, J. A. Morrin, W. S. Macy, O. B. Smith, Jr., L. Y. Birnie, J. A." Crawford and W. A. Pickard, eight in all, the ninth to be appointed by the government. O. B. Smith was appointed secretary pro tern of the board, and a meeting of the directors called for next Wednesday evening for the election of officers. It was decided to have the secretary's and auditors' reports printed in full in the Pioneer, but owing to lack of space they will not appear until next week. Throughout the meeting was marked by good will and a desire for information, which was freely furnished, and which seemed to meet with the approval of those present. Bonnington " Juice " Begins Boundary Service. This week the first power to be furnished in the Boundary by the West Kootenay Power & Light Co., which has recently built high tension double electric lines from Bonnington Falls, on Kootenay river, near Nelson, to this section, was turned on at the Granby smelter at Grand Forks, and was at once utilized at those reduction works, where electric power has been none too plenty since eight furnaces were placed in commission a short time ago. At first but a few huudred horse power will be used, the Granby Consolidated also having some water power of its own, as well "as"the power from the works of the Cascade Water, Power & Light Co. at Cascade, which has so far furnished all the long distance power used by the mines, smelters and cities of the Boundary. The coming of the Bonnington power gives assurance that there will be no lack of power this winter, as there was last winter when the Kettle river reached its lowest stage in years, but which shortage cost Boundary smelter owners several thousands of dollars. This week a petition has been circulated throughout the towns and cities of the Boundary, and almost universally signed, asking the legislative assembly to grant an extension of charter to the West Kootenay Power & Lieht Co., so that the company can operate in the county of Yale. A day or two since electric power was turned on to the motor for the new air compressor of the Dominion Copper Co.,, Ltd., which is ..being installed at the company's Rawhide mine in this camp. This power is furnished by the Cascade Water, Power & Light Co. : HEARD IN PASSING. Julius Levy, Rossland ��� Phoenix looks better today than I ever saw it before.

About a year ago the people of Phoenix unanimously petitioned the postoffice department at Ottawa for a mail service over the V., V. & E. from Grand Forks to Phoenix, and the promise was given to look into the matter. At various times since then the department's attention has been called to the subject, but thus far without effect. The mail from the United States is st ill brought up as far as Grand Forks, the sacks for Phoenix being completely made up on the Great Northern train on the other side of the line, and dumped off at Grand Forks, held there a day and brought up on the C.P.R.���when it might just as well be brought up direct to Phoenix. In November last an indignation meeting of business men was held and the postmaster-general telegraphed to in the matter. The immediate response was that the service would be put into effect as soon as possible. Tenders for carrying the mails to and from the station were called for, lo be in by December 2 2d, but as far as the public is aware, that was the end of it, although five weeks have elapsed since that date. Our member, Duncan Ross, also took the matter up, but seemingly they did not listen to him to rfny extent, either. For pure, double-distilled, concentrated essence of mossbackism, commend us to Ottawa and the postoffice department and the. manner in which it is conducted at that point. There is no earthly reason why this matter could not have been attended to months ago, and it should have been. In the meantime the most important mining town in British Columbia has its American mail delayed 24 hours, because the postmaster-general, Hon. A. B. Aylesworth, or Dr. R. M. Coulter, the deputy, or some lessei official in the Dominion, capital, does not attend to his business as it should be done. How long is til is state of affairs to last? Perils of the Deep. * As one horror after another is reported of shipwrecks where many lives are lost, the average individual begins to speculate as to whether it is relatively at all safe to trust oneself away any distance from dry land. The latest of these was the wrecking cf the steamer Valencia last week on the rocky Pacific coast not far from the city of Victoria, at Cape Beale, by which more than one hundred lives were lost. As the details of the awful catastrophe came to hand in the press, written in such graphic style, a full realization of the terrible event could be had. It does not seem so long ago that the wreck of the steamer Clallam, not far from the location of the Valencia wreck, with its loss of many lives, startled the people of the west, while before that the burning of the steamer Slocum in New York harbor, by which 1,000 lives were lost, was another. Seemingly, these dreadful occurrences come thick and fast, and many travellers lose faith in the ability of latter day navigators to safely care for their passengers. One thing seems certain regarding these fearful calamities, and that is, some of them could have been avoided. Our American cousins seem disposed to take many more chances wilh their craft than others, and that fact will not tend to lend confidence in their judgment. From the records it does not appear that British bottoms, at least of late years, have had the same misfortunes with consequent loss of life. This is doubtless due to the greater strictness of the navigation laws, or their enforcement, on those who sail under the Union Jack. Tne American steamship companies, at least in this regard, appear to be too willing to take risks for the almighty- dollar when valuable lives of men, women and children are at stake. They could pattern after the British owners to good advantage, it would seem, and reduce to the minimum such death dealing calamities as those of the steamers Clallam and Valencia. If they do not, they should not and will not receive the business that they mig;ht otherwise enjoy, as the public will be disposed to give them a wide berth. Fighting to Furnish Power. The Cascade Water, Power & Light Co. is appealing before the members of the legislative assembly with a petition, asking that body not to grant an extension to the charier of the West Kootenay Power & Light Co., so that the latter may furnish power all over the county of Yale, the present limitation being within 50 miles of Rossland. The assertion is made that if the charter is amended it will greatly curtail the business ofthe Cascade concern, and therefore it should not be granted. It bids fair to be a pretty fight at Victoria before it is decided, and the outcome can be predicted. The Cascade concern has invested about half a million dollars in its attempt to give the Boundary adequate electrical power, and the West Kootenay Co. is investing a million for the same purpose. Up to last winter the service from Cascade was plentiful and efficient on account of the small amount of power needed, but when the water in Kettle river went down a year ago, the power went down also, and the company was not able to supply all the demands made upon it, let alone takecare of an increase in demand which was to be used in a few months, and which has now already arrived in this section. These are facts beyond contradiction, and every resident ofthe Boundary is aware of them. The output of the Boundary a year ago was curtailed to the extent of thousands of dollars because the Cascade concern could not supply the power, due to extreme low water���and that extreme might come again any season. As it stands today the amount ot power will be so greatly increased, due to the improvements being made at ihe several Boundary smelters and mines, that thtre is not enough power to supply this demand with the present Cascade plant running at its maximum. It was hardly to be expected that the large mining and smelting concerns in the Boundary would stand this state of affairs if it could be avoided. Expansion was and still is the order of the day, but power was short from the then existing sources. What was to be done? The Cascade people could not and did not give any assurance whatever of an attempt to increase their capacity to supply power, even after being asked to do so by one of the large consumers, and the Boundary mining companies did the next best thing When the West Kootenay Power & Light Co. agreed to furnish the needed power, it was given contracts, and has constructed its long distance high tension lines into the Boundary for this purpose. If the Cascade concern is or was willing to make an effoit to supply the the demand, why was it not done when an application to it was made? In its petition, nothing is said about this phase of the matter, hut after the other power company had made its r.onuaets for power with liniiudaiy mine owners, the backers of the Cascade concern announced in the London press that they would increase their capacity if necessary, and visited the Boundary, when loo late, to see about it. In short, they were too slow about giving any satisfaction whatever in the matter of increase. What is wanted here is cheap electrical power and plenty of it. It could not be had from existing sources u! supply, and it was secured elsewheie. That is all there is to it. The Cascade concern should not be put out ol business, but the extension of franchise should be granted to the West Kootenay concern, with such limitations and safeguards as may be deemed wise. And this is probably the view that will be taken of the mattei by the legislative assembly. Greater Praiperity Id B. C. The Monetary Times, the most influential trade journal., published in Canada, has the following about British Columbia: While the northwestern provinces have had more attention from eastern Canada and from the outside world during the past year, no province in Canada has had gi eater prosperity relatively to its immediate possibilities than British Columbia. 'I'his huge province, destined probably some day to outstrip all others in wealth, with resources which require literally millions of people for thrir development, lias at present but a handful, as it were, of people. It is so rich in products of both sea and river, valley and mountain���fish, fruit, grain, catile, timber, coal, and almost all minerals, it is so lovely a climate for man to live in; and it can eventually be so largely self-supporting because of its possibilities in producing varieties ot food and varieties of manufactures, that no one can doubt as to the character of its industrial future.

ALLES, Agent A Good Suggestion. That Smith Curtis intends to re enter politics at an early date is evident from the tact that he has addressed a meeting of miners at Ymir and is sending out a verbatim report of the same in poster form, sa>s the Victoria Colonist. In his address Mr. Curtis attacks the government in the strongest possible language. "Graft," "corporate influence," and domination by the C.P.R. are the crimes which are laid at its door. The.document in question is much too long to examine in detail. As a specimen state ment by which to judge of the value of the whole, it is alleged that "already the C.P.R. has taken nearly 20,000,000 acres of British Columbia lands." The land grants given to the Columbia & Kootenay, the Columbia & Western, and the British Columbia Southern amount in all to about (, 8,000,000 acres. Only 200,000 acres was given to the C.P.R. The rest of it was acquired by the company after it had been granted to other companies. We would suggest that if Mr. Curtis wants a suitable text for a sermon on graft he would turn his attention to Ottawa. PROVINCIAL. 1 A. J. Morley, the new mayor of Victoria, is placing the lid on tight. The C. P. R. can now sell tickets all around the world over its own rail and steamship lines. Building to the amount of $90,000 was done in Kelowna last year, and $200,000 fruit trees were set out there.

The editor of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer refers to his esteemed contemporary the editor of the Times as "an Aristophanian sphragidonychargoco- meta who is suffering from intellectual hysterocystocele." At last accounts the Times man was still out. It is said that Daniel O'Connell once made a bet that he could close up a voluble Irish apple woman by flinging at her head one single word. Daniel won. When the lady had been provoked to the necessary extent and her eloquence was at full flood, O'Connell transfixed her by calling her a parallelogram. Evidently heavier verbal artillery than O'Connell's had to be brought into action to subdue the editor ofthe Times. ���Victoria Times.

Advertising tile Boundary. The Phoenix Pioneer, of Phoenix, B. C, issued a special New Year's number which would be a credit tb any town of ten times the size of Phoenix, and which reflects great credit upon Manager W. B. Wilcox. It consists of seventy-two pages, embellished with over one hundred halftones, and is graphically descriptive of the advancement of one of the finest copper mining districts in the world. The Granby Consolidated, in which Mr. J. P. Graves, Mr. A. L. White and others of this city are heavily interested, receives an excellent write-up, and is proof of the wonderful results that may be accomplished by enterprising men. Everyone interested in the development of the Boundary district should secure copies of the spe cial number for distribution among his friends.���Spokane Outburst. THE OBSERVATORY Things Talkku of at Home and Klskwhkkk Nothing Slow About Them. There is nothing slow about the newspapers in the Kootenays. The Cranbrook Herald, Phoenix Pioneer, Fernie Free Press, and Nelson News all issued holiday numbers that outshine anything of the sort we have seen from Eastern Canada. We paid our tribute to the Cranbrook Herald last week, and since, we have been favored with copies of the other papers and, like the Herald annual, they make us admire the enterprise of the fellows in the mountains. All the pages of these editions are original; no importations from jobbing houses, but reading matter and advertising, put together in the respective towns. Western papers are up-to-date.���Lethbridge (Alta.) Herald. Covered Whole Field. One of the most attractive and interesting annual publications that has reached this office is that of the Phoenix (B. C.) Pioneer. It is in magazine form, has 72 pages, is profusely illustrated and neatly printed. A tremendous amount of work was required to produce such a publication, and it is a great credit to the office from which it was issued. There is much of great interest in the mining way in and about Phoenix, from which material can be collected, and that duty was certainly in good hands. But the publishers did not confine the contents to the narrow limits of a single place, the whole Boundary field was covered, and prominence is generously given to Grand Forks, Eholt, Midway, Greenwood, and other camps in that very rich and important mining district. This annual will prove of great value to the mining interests of that part of British Columbia, and the publishers richly deserve a handsome reward for their enterprise. ��� Loomis (Wash.) Prospector. Last week we received the splendid special edition of the Phoenix Pioneer. It is a fine specimen of printing, contains many good half-tone illustrations and will certainly prove to be a valuable work in advertising the great resources of the Boundary country. Brother Willcox is to be commended for his enterprise and congratulated upon his success.���Republic (Wash.) Record. MINERAL ACT. Certificate of Improvements. NOTICE. "Rex."

A good many people do it because the income is so big; that they can't conveniently spend it all; and a whole lot more people do it because they can't get credit beyond the contents of the Saturday night envelope, says an exchange. The only people who cannot follow Mr. Rockefeller's advice are country editors���they have to live outside their income or not live at all. tit A rural preacher, says an exchange, at the conclusion of a sermon, said : "Let all in the house who are paying their debts stand." Instantly every man, woman and child, with one exception, arose. The preacher seated them and said : "Now, every man not paying his debts stand." The exception noted, a care worn, hungry-looking individual, clothed in his last summer's suit, slowly assumed a perpendicular position. "How is it, my fritnd," asked the minister, "that you are the only man not able to meet his obligations?"' "I run a newspaper," he meekly answered, "and the brethren who just stood are my subscribers, and " ���!��� The Pioneer is in receipt of the second or third long winded communication from the Lord's Day Aili;inceof Canada, Toronto, of which Rev. J. G. Shearer is secretary and Rev. T. Albert Moore, assistant secretary, bearing on the controversy which the Nelson Daily News has had with the alliance. We are asked to publish the same, and if the reverend gentleman would study and practice brevity, 100m might be found for his views, although the News is well able to take care of itself. Mr. Moore made some statements about the News and about miners in the Kootenays which are, to say the least, open to criticism, and not statements of fact. If he would stick more to bare fact, he would find more people in the west in sympathy with his work, and would also br able to enlist to a greater extent the assistance of the press. ��������� The war between the two power companies operating in the Boundaiy may be interesting, and theie is usually sympathy for the under dog in the fight. But, after all, ���.������hat the residents ofthe Boundary wish is to sec the mines and smelters in full operation all of the time. In that way we will enjoy continued piospeiity. We know that the Cascade concern is today unable to furnish electrical power and in a few months will be far behind the procession, owing to increases. The West Kootenay company, we know also, has the available- power and necessary capital���two things the Cascade company lack. While no one is desirous of seeing trouble come to any one or any company, the prosperity of the Boundary is paramount to any one p-.rson or concern, and if they attempt to stand in the way of progress���well, it is unfortunate for them, that's all. ������a George C. Hodge, of Nelson, district superintendent ot the li. C. Telephone Co., Ltd., was in the city last Saturday, straightening out some kinks in the local switchboard���in which he was successful. Mr. Hodge started this week on a six weeks vacation, during which he will visit the large cities on the Pacific coast, and pick up, if possible, some new ideas in the telephonic world. This year it is the intention of the company to put in a metallic system in Greenwood���all the same l'hoenix���and it may be necessary to rebuild the system entirely, owing to the corrosion of ihe wiies in that town Irom smelter smoke. Alter that Grand Forks will be tieated the same way, when the Boundaiy system will be in the most complete woiking order. BOUNDARY WILL FURNISH MUSIC. Greenwood Brass Band Has been Enjiged for Rossland Carnival. The band committee of the Rnssiand carnival has at length finished its labors and filed a repoit. Its chief duty was to secure a proper brass band to play during each night and day <<l the carnival, commencing on Wednesday, February 7th. It was found to be impossible to organize a band loi carnival purposes in the city, ovrn by drawing from Trail. Applications were received from tlie Nelson, Greenwood and Colville bands to furnish the music needed, and the committee decided to engage the Greenwood band, a musical organization of more than local reputation, of which A.D. Hallett, a very capable musician, is the leader. The Greenwood band will anive there on Wednesday, February 7th, in the afternoon, so as to be ready to play at the masquerade carnival to be held on that evening.

Title | The Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal |
Alternate Title | [The Phoenix Pioneer] |
Publisher | Phoenix, B.C. : Pioneer Publishing Co. |
Date Issued | 1906-02-03 |
Description | Devoted to the interests of the Boundary Mining District. The Phoenix Pioneer was published in Phoenix, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from April 1898 to May 1916. The Pioneer was published by the Pioneer Publishing Company, which was managed by W. B. Wilcox (from 1899-1908) and Thomas Alfred Love (from 1908-1911). On August 12th, 1910, the headquarters of the Pioneer burned down, together with a large portion of the town of Phoenix itself, and the paper consequently suffered serious financial difficulties. On April 11th, 1911, the Pioneer was sold to Gilbert Kay, who published and edited the paper until May 1916. The paper was published under a variant title, the Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal, both from 1903-1910 and from 1911-1912. |
