Devoted to the Interests of the Boundary Mining District Vol. VII. PHOENIX, BRITISH COLUMBIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 16, .906. No. 31. ^Ywwwnaw^aaiBteB^^jajteJH^^y^ New summer Z �� $225,000 BOND FOR OVER TWENTY PHOENIX CAMP CLAIMS J. L. Martin, of this city, has just closed negotiations for what promises to result in the largest single mining deal ever transacted in the Boundary country, so far as number of claims is concerned. While the consideration to be turned over is not stated, it is understood to be in the neighborhood of $225,000, the whole of which is to be paid within six months' time. The property is that included in what is known as the Marshall, lhe Monte and Forty groups of mineral claims, adjoining the Granby and Dominion groups of properties on the north side of the city. Some twenty odd claims are included in the bond, making Over 700 acres of mineralized territory. Tbe deal was made with G. B. Dennis, of Spokane, on behalf of himself and a talists who have been carefully noting the successful mining operations in this camp (or some time past. The statement is made that the combination is fully as strong as any concern now operating in the Boundary. Development work is to be started as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made, the fust work to be done being thorough testing of the ore backers of the enterprise providing for I some of the immense low grade cop- de will this whenever it shall have bei.n termined that the ore available warrant such a step. For some months past Mr. Martin has been quietly working on the securing of the necessary options for the claims included in this group, but as some of the owners are widely scattered, it has been a slow process. The bodies on the various claims by means j papers, now, however, are all in escrow of the diamond drill. This, the Pioneer is informed, is expected to be undertaken in a few days, and prosecuted vigorously, for the purpose of locating ore and indicating where permanent work should be commenced. Mr. Dennis informs Mr. Martin also that as soon as the development shall justify it, the purchasers will secure a suit able site for a smelter of large capacity. per lodes of the Boundary. This opinion is also shared by many other men of prominence in tbe world of mining. Of the several groups included in this transaction, probably the best known is the Marshall group, named after James Marshall, the well known pioneer of this camp. This group has a tremendous showing of copper-gold ! in the Eastern Townships Bank in ' ore, on which a good deal of surface Phoenix. j prospecting has been done, besides Mr. Dennis is one of the oldest and ' some shaft work���all of which has best known residents of the city of I tended to prove that the group has a Spokane, and was one of the first'gigantic ore, body.

The claims of this group are the Marshall, Marshall fraction, Little Brown and Little Annie In the Monte group are the Monte Reco, Big Monte, Monte Bravo, and Keystone, while the Forty gioup consists of a number of claims that, like those of the Monte group, are known to have great surface showings of ore, which competent judges think will m?ke great mines, with adequate development. The Monte group and the Marshall group are located next to the Granby and Dominion property, while the Forty group adjoins the Marshall and Monte groups on trie north. Mr. Dennis expects to visit the property in the near future. MAY TONNAGE OVER 100,000 From Shipping Properties of the Boundary. COMING AND GOING Five Months of 1906 530,937 Tons. Boundary's tonnage output for the month of May continued to run over the 100,000 ton mark, notwithstanding the fact that repairs and enlargements to a number of the Granby turnaces were still under way. These changes will be completed in the near future, when the increased output by the Granby Consolidated will largely make up in the total monthly Boundary output for the shortage now being occasioned by the entire stoppage of onielting operations at the reduction works of the British Columbia Copper Co. while the three giant furnaces are being installed. The output for May- is, consequently, slightly smaller than it was for April. Comparing the out put of ore for the several months of this year thus far, we have the following figures: January 104,37s tons February 105,439 " March 112,63s " April ">798 May 100,694 Total, 5 months,. . .530,937 " Granby's output for May, 66,817 tons, is nearly 2,000 tons less than for April, British Columbia's May output was some 500 tons less and Dominion Copper's output was about 1,400 tons smaller than for the previous month. The figures in detail from each of the properties, are approximately as follows: Mine Tons Granby mines 66,S17 B. C. Copper Co.: Mother Lode. . 13,56s Emma 1,446 Dominion Copper Co. Brooklyn-Stem Rawhide .... Sunset Mountain Rose 13.307 i-77i 3.4S5 66 Providence. Skylark Sally Don Pedro.. Butcher Boy Total for May 100,694 It has not as yet been the custom of the large mining companies to give out the exact values recovered per ton of ore, but with the excellent price prevailing for the metals, it is believed to run well o\er $5 for each ton of ore. Estimating on this basis Boundary mines produced ore worth $500,000 in May, and worth $2,500,000 for the first five months of this year, in gold, silver and copper. Election Not Imminent. William Davidson, of Sandon, hide pendent laoor member of the legislative assembly from the Slocan district, was a visitor in the city Saturday, shaking hands with the many old Slocan boys now residen here. Mr. Davidson, when asked about the probability of a provincial election this year, said that he did not expect to see an appeal to the people at present, and not before this legislature had run out its allotted time, which would bring it next year. Chna. Peterson Killed at Strsthmore. ast Tuesday night (!harles Peterson, a miner employed at the Strath- more mine, near Greenwood, was killed by falling rock. Deceased was well known in the Boundary, and was a member of the Odd Fellows and Greenwood Miners' Union No. 22. He left a wife and two children. F. H. Knight, the Grand Forks mining man, was a visitor here Saturday. ' Noble Binns, of Trail, spent two or three days in the city this week in connection with his furniture business here.

Gates, known to many in town, left on Tuesday for the east to see his mother in Troy, N. Y., who is very ill, and is not expected to live. A. E. Hogue, an Australian mining engineer, who spent some time in Phoenix, is now in charge of development on the M. S. group in Franklin camp. Elmer D. Hall, formerly connected with the Pioneer; left Seattle this week for Fairbanks, Alaska, where he has accepted a position with the Fairbanks Times. F. E. Starkey, of Nelson, who was here Wednesday, says the new daily in that city, the Nelson Canadian, is taking well with Conservatives throughout the Kootenays. Walter Cook left Saturday to attend the Provincial Grand Lodge session of the Odd Fellows, held at Victoria this week, as representative of Snow- shoe Lodge No. 46, of Phoenix. George H. Mead, ore shipper at the Granby mines, left Tuesday on a two months' trip to San F"rancisco and other California points. G. E Cole will look after the ore loading in his absence. E. W. Monk, of Nelson, representing the Hamilton Powder Co., and H. P. Dickinson, of Rossland, of the Giant Powder Co., were both in Phoenix this week, on regular business trips. W. T. Choate, for several years the C. P. R. Eholt agent, has been transferred to Revelstoke to a position of more responsibility. Mr. Cobb will attend to Mr. Choate's former Eholt duties for the present. Lake D. Wo!ford, of Spokane, visited the Wolford group of claims, on Fourth of July creek, last Saturday, where he expects to interest outside capital shordy. Last year the property- was tested with a diamond drill. D. J. Matheson, city clerk and postmaster, went over to Rossland this week, to transcribe the provincial assessments on lands and improvements in the new Phoenix school district, outside the city limits. J. A. Miller, wife and child, left for Storm Lake, Iowa, on Tuesday, traveling by the Oriental Limited from Spokane. Mr. Miller was shift-boss at the Granby mines, having been a resident here for more than five years. The night before he left he was called into the office, and, in behalf of the men who were under him, he was presented with a fine gold watch, the speech being made by George E. Cole. Mr. Miller made a fitting response. MAY PAYROLL WAS $150,000 In Boundary Mines Smelters. Boundary Mining Notes $60,000 Disbursed in Phoenix Alone. ���5-OI4 18,629 130 2 5 20 During the past week the wageroll for the mines and smelters of the Boundary for the month of May was distributed, and while officia.1 figures are not available, it is known that the sum paid out was approximately a little larger than for April, or about $150,- 000 in these two branches of industry alone. In Phoenix camp alone the payroll amounted to about $60,000, distrib ufed among the 600 or more miners employed by the Granby Consolidated and Dominion Copper Co. With a somewhat increased force in the employ of the latter company, it had the largest payroll it has yet disbursed in Phoenix, about $23,000, while the Granby's roll here was around $40,000. At the Granby smelter it was about $30,000. Hereafter both of these companies will probably have an equal or slightly larger amount to pay out on the 10th of each month, with the heavy shipments and extensive improvements continually under way. The British Columbia Copper Co.'s payroll is understood to be slightly larger than heretofore, with more men at the mines and new work at the smelter. It was abont $30,000 at both mines and smelter, and will likely be larger still next month, with the addition of 75 or 100 men, if they can be had, at the Mother Lode mine, in preparation for increased shipments when the company's enlarged smelter is blown in. In the neighborhood of 150 men or more are employed in the smaller and high grade mines of the Boundary, which adds at least $15,000 to the monthly wage account of this section. Tabulated, the pay for the mines and smelters of the Boundary for May- was approximately as follows: Granby Consolidated $ 72,000 B C. Copper Co Dominion Copper shares are now- quoted in Boston and New York on the $10 par value basis. The long tunnel on the Gold Bug and ls ln over S���� feet' ar"d has reached ledge matter, which is encouraging to the management. The 45-horse power locomotive boiler for the Skylark mine will be in stalled as soon as possible, and sinking resumed to the 250-foot level, Some of the Providence shareholders have sold out their interests to the Chicago men who have control of that banner high grade property. A second steel smokestack will be erected at the Dominion Copper Co.'s Boundary Falls smelter when the third furnace is installed, late this summer. Some of the heavy castings for the new electric-drive air compressor for the Emma mine, Summit camp, have been received, and the masonry foundations are being prepared. E. H. Thruston, one of the owners of the Carmi mine, on the West Fork, is at the property, with machinery and cyanide experts, looking after the installing of the treatment plant. It is expected that work on the mine will be resumed shortly. Last week the first annual meeting of the Canada Western Oil Co., Ltd., was held at Greenwood, and the following directors elected : Dr. J. E. Spankie, Dr. G. S. Gordon, Hugh Mc- Cutcheon, E. R. Redpath, S. B. Yuill, James McCreath and Angus Cameron. 'I he company enjoys the distinction of being the only holder of an oil lease in the province. An expert will be sent to the property, to examine with a view to drilling for oil, and the outlook for the company is promising. MOVING DIRT ON NEW R. R. Kettle Valley Line Building Up North Fork. Phoenix Man to Clear of Way. Right This week the active work of throwing dirt on the North Fork extension of the Kettle River Valley lines railway was started by W. P. Tierney & Co., who last week received the contract for the construction of this 50 miles of railway, from Grand Forks to tlie McKinley mine in FYanklin camp. A camp was established just outside Grand Forks, Mr. Tierney and his son arrived on the scene, and now about 50 men are at work under Foreman McDonald. It is understood that about 16 miles of the line will be built at first, to a point beyond the Pathfinder mine, or just below Lynch creek, the balance to be taken up as fast as possible. It is hoped to be able to secure at least 500 men at once, the force to be increased to 1,000 men, to rush the work. E. L. Woodard, the Phoenix contractor, has been awarded the work for clearing the right of way for the first 16 miles, and will start in Monday, and have employment for 40 or 50 men. The right of way will be cleared for a width of 100 feet, as usual. Latest Prices in Metals.

Two new vice-president's were created last week at the regular monthly meeting of the Granby Consolidated Minind, Smelting & Power Co., in the east. Directors George Martin Luther and George C. Clark, jr., were elected to the positions. lay P. Graves has heretofore been the only vice-president. Jacob Langeloth, president of the company and also president of the American Metal Co, reported on his recent trip to the Granby mines in British Columbia. lie is very enthusiastic over the outlook for the property. With the close of the current month the fiscal year of the Granby Co. will end, and the annual report, to be issued in October, should make a favorable showing as the result of higher copper and silver prices and an increased output. Tlie secretary stated shares of scock had 1 stope ort '32>350 issued by the company. and that been C. J.

The plant is a good one, but there is more ot it than is needed at the Sunset under the present plan of open quarry operation. At the Dominion Copper Co.'s Mountain Rose claim in Summit camp, Foreman Fraser has driven the tunnel, to tap the lend, about 11K feet, with some 20 or ,50 feet more to go.

Detailed information on application. J. S. Carter, D. P. A., Nelson, B. C. 14,000 Tons Ordered at Sydney, C. B. A dispatch from Montreal states that 14,000 tons of steel rails for the Midway & Vernon railway have just been ordered, and the continuation of construction of this railway is to be started within a very short time, according to information secured in Montreal and New York, where the capital behind the road comes from. The rails have been ordered from the Dominion Iron & Steel Co. of Sydney, Cape Breton, and the order will be rushed out as soon as the company can commence on it. It is understood that the rails will be shipped across the continent over the C. P. R. in preference to transportation around the Horn, because of the desirability of saving time. Since the decision in favor of the Midway & Vernon as against the province of British Columbia on a refer- erence as to the disputed subsidy claimed by the former, the backers of the railway company have been busily arranging to go ahead with the building of the road, Some ten or twelve miles of it has already been graded and made ready for the steel. This work- was performed out of Midway. Grading will probably be pushed ahead this summer and tracklaying will be commenced just as soon as the rails are on the ground, if present plans are carried out. There is considerable speculation in railway circles as to where the control of the Midway & Vernon will go when it is completed, and as to wnat roads it will make connections with. The Midway terminal of the railway will be accessible both by the V., V. & E., and the C. P. R. lines, while at Vernon there is possible connection with the main lines of the C. P. R. by a provincial government-owned road running from Okanagan to Sicamous. This short government line is now operated by the C. P. R. The Vary Best Remedy for Bowel Trouble. Mr. M. F.

You may have to figure closely in these nutters. A little extra on a barrel of flour may look big to you. But there is a difference between spending money wisely and spending it foolishly. Sometimes it is economy to spend instead of to save. It is in the case of Royal Household Flour. Those few extra cents a week, that give you Royal Household Flour in preference to inferior flour, buy health.

In everything that goes to make a high-class, instructive and enjoyable evening the programme furnished last night by Miss Nannie Strachan and Gavin Spence was certainly replete. Given under the auspices of North Star Lodg<No. 2, I.O.O.F., the Y. M. C. hall was packed to overflowing by an appreciative audience, who demanded an encore after every item on the programme. For years Winnipeg has had the reputation of having a goodly share of Scottish entertainments, but none was quite up to the standard of last night. Miss Nannie Strachan, although a stranger to Winnipeg, was received with an enthusiasm rarely accorded an artist under similar conditions. Petite, modest, fascinating, in her natty Highland costume, she disarmed criticism the moment she appeared on the rostrum. Bui when she started the ''Scottish Blue Bells," her audience awoke to the fact that no ordinary concert singer was before it. For tone, quality, flexibility and vocalization, she stands unequaled in the realm of Scottish song. Her "Comin' Thro' the Rye" was a revelation, and the "Caller Merrin" sent the audience into ecstacies The duet, "The Crookit Bawbee" gave her the necessary opportunity to display her dramatic ability, and this number was probably the most popular of the whole programme, although, with such a variety, it is a difTic tilt thing to pick the most popular. Wc predict a magnificent future for this sweet little vocalist. Mr. Gavin Spence must be seen and heard to be appreciated. Full of a dry huni'jr, he kept his hearers in fits of laughter, when telling stories and jokes which had the merit of originality. His rendering of "Tessie's Dream," and the "Hundred Pipers," was par excellence, and the many lucid explanations he gave of the origin of the songs sung were welcomed alike by all. "Heiland Rory," and "Hooch Aye" fairly brought down the house. The entertainment closed with the audience singing the Scottish Doxology, Auld Lang Syne," and then "God ��� ~m THE OBSERVATORY Tiiino* Taikku ok at Home and Klskwiikkk Newspaper publishers sometimes receive some odd correspondence. A short time since we received a card from an individual who was ashamed to sign his name, asking why the bank here did not pay off on paydays in one and two dollar bills, so that the money would be more likely to be spent and circulated. The chances are that if the writer is a mucker, and puts in eight whole hours each and every day, he does not work as hard as the bank people do on paydays, and that with using $5 and $10 bills to cash checks with. It is no picnic to pay out from $60,000 to $70,000 in small bills in a few hours' time. The bankers, doubtless have nothing to do with the olhei phase of the question. This week a New Yorker writes the Pioneer, in part as follows, after receiving a copy of our last holiday number : "In regard to your newspaper, would say that one of my friends, Mr. , is a subscriber, and I take the- TWO BEAUTIFUL WOMEN WHO ESCAPED SPRING CATARRH BY TAKING PE-RU-NA.

Special Rates On All Railways For Particulars, Address & P. ��HEA, Chairman. G McEACHERN, Sec. Buster Brown gets off some great resolutions occasionally. Here is one that is characteristic : "Resolved, There are just as good fish in the sea as ever were caught, which means, don't worry over the past but get hu.iy and try again. Failure is experience, and experience is the best teacher. I'd rather begin with an honest failure than an undeserved success. One thing I did do, I. went fishing and came back with fish. Don't belong lo the excuse makers, boys���if you can't return with the goods, don't say anything, but make up your mind to try again. Don't make excuses." Col. Robert Tecumseh Lowery, who lias started and conducted weekly'papers in Three Forks, Kaslo, Sandon, N'ew Denver, Nelson, Poplar, Vancouver, Fernie, Greenwood and a few other places in this province���not to mention other provinces���was a caller at the Pioneer's printing palace this week, on one of his perigrinating trips. He was just about to seat himself in the morocco, plush-covered, easy office chair of the estaolishment, when he observed a copy of the Ferine Ledger there. Rising, he remarked, "No. thank you: 1 do not care to catch cold." A man is indeed great when the world calls him by his front name. Jim Hill, for instance.��� Greenwood Ledge. How about Duncan Ross ? #ft Air. Justice Irving has pronounced the Kamloops court house as unfit to sit in, stigmatizing it as "smelling to Heaven." He must have had the American beef packing trust in mind. He must have been a philosopher who remarked that "The man who fears that he will do more than his salary calls for, will never have much of a salary to call for.'' ,������ For some time past the Anaconda (B.C.) News, published by Robert Reffer, has held the palm for being the smallest paper in the province. It will have to surrender that proud position now, however, as the Golden Times, with four pages, each 5 'i\6 '.., las entered the troubled sea of journalism, in opposition to Peck McSwain. Perhaps like the Grand Forks Evening Sun, when first started several years ago, it is taken as a joke', but it may turn out to be an important feature of its community, as the Sun has. A five pound bass is the largest fish ever taken from Lake Chargoggagmau- chagogumgamaug, near YVinsted, Conn. Out in British Columbia we get much larger fish, but so far none with so large a name. Last week's issue of the Pioneer had the largest circulation ever printed for a regular issue of this publication ��� and probably of any publication in the Boundary. A few short of t,ooo copies were printed, the demand being due to the exhaustive description of Franklin camp, now coming to the front so rapidly. A Spring Tonic. ALMOST everybody needs a tonic In the spring. Something to brace the nerves, invigorate the brain, and cleanse the blood. That Peruna possesses such qualities is beyond all question. "We have on file thousands of letters which testify to the curative value of Peruna in cases of nervous depression and run down conditions of the system. A Typical Letter. Mrs.Ehoda Stufflebeam, Bunch, Iowa, ���writes: "For years I suffered with catarrh of the throat and bronchial tubes. "I doctored with different physicians, but kept getting worse all tho time. Mrs "This spring I took a cold wnich settled on my lungs. I had snch a congh I could not rest at night. My friends, and I myself thought I had consumption. "A friend advised me to try Peruna. I bought a bottle and wrote to you for advice. Before I had taken one bottle, my cough was better so I concluded to give it further trial. "I followed your directions as closely as possible, and thanks to you and Peruna, I am a well woman to-day." ' Peruna never fails to prevent spring catarrh or nervous prostration, if taken in time. Ilattio Xiirmllron. Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics. One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotics of any kind. Pcrunais perfectly harmless, if taken according to the directions on each bottle. So used, it can be taken any length of time 'without acquiring a drug habit. It has no bad effect upon the syBtem, and gradually eliminates catarrh by removing the cause of catarrh. There are a multitude of homes "Where Peruna has been used off and on for twenty years.

The staff of the Phoenix General hospital gave an impromptu dance at Miners' Union hall Wednesday evening, which was much enjoyed by the goodly number present. It was intended to give it in the main ward of the hospital, but the arrival of a couple of patients necessitated a change of plans. Next Monday evening a meeting of the celebration committee will be held at the city hall. More subscriptions to the fund have been made almost daily, and on Monday the committee will call on allsubcnbeirs to cash up. Everything is working out satisfactorily for a big time on the 2d and 3d of July here.

Title | The Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal |
Alternate Title | [The Phoenix Pioneer] |
Publisher | Phoenix, B.C. : Pioneer Publishing Co. |
Date Issued | 1906-06-16 |
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. |
