MINING STOCK QUOTATIONS. A TERRITORY RICH IN MINERAL FAST FORGING AHEAD The Kettle River country and its ���lOrisibilities are topics which in- irti'ost everyone who desires to see ���au extension of British Columbia's mining fields. The proposition has a special interest for Nelsonites, inasmuch as the country will be a large purchaser from' local wholesalers when its mineral properties reach a more advanced stage. Attention has already been drawn to the desirability of opening the Fire Valley road via whicli shipments from this point can reach the heart of the Kettle river district more expeditiously and cheaper than by any other route. In some measure t.he country has been a disappointment this year. Great things were expected-to follow* the rush of the early spring, but these hopes were only partially realized*. A large number of men went in and many <:laims were staked, but the prospectors as a rule were not in a position to work their locations and a large number came out intending to go iu again next spring with a stake .���md develop their properties. Enough work has been done, how- over, to demonstrate that the country is one0 of remarkable promise. Those who are familiar with the .. facts have uo hesitation in predicting a bright future for the Kettle River district. Robert Shiell, one of the pioneers of'the Kettle River country, is /^pendiug a few days in Nelson on ~" business, and discusses the prospects of the district in an interest- -vv. ii��g-*veh��.-.'-.'Siuce;hig .last visit-to .the city comparatively few important changes have eventuated, but there - are indications of substantial progress withal. Among these is the .sale of the Monashee mine by Mclntyre and Lisle to Dunsmuir and Rithet of Victoria. The property is situated on the mountain of the same name about 27 miles from Vernon, from which point a good wagon road was constructed some time ago. The Monashee is in every sense a pioneer, having been staked 20 years ago and crown granted about 14 years since. It has a .strong continuous ledge averaging $10 to $15 in free milling ore on the eastern claims of the group, and almost any amount on the western end, where the ledge carries free gold. An old fashioned mill was placed on the group some time ago, ���and=thi.3=has=proved==one=-of-H;he= greatest drawbacks to the prop-' perty, as the plant would uot save values. The owners have planned an extensive program of work, including ;a modern stamp mill. The Monashee is regarded as a coming property. Active operations will probably not be commenced j till spring. The claims owned by George Doyle, formerly of Nelson, are three miles north of the Monashee, and are looking particularly well. He has a strong lead of amenical iron with two feet of solid ore. An assay from the group made here on Wednesday last gave returns of $101. The work to date has been for assessment purposes and confined largely to the surface. The Olds property, owned by the Olds brothers and Page, is fairly well known. They have five claims oh which the lead is opened up for almost the full length of two claims. There are three parallel ledges and an average assay for the center 500 feet on all three is $30. An expert recently visited the property and took samples from various points on the ledges,<from which, he secured an average of $15. The Olds brothers recently returned from Eugland and have resumed .work on the claims! They intend sinking on the central lead and will .continue operations all winter. Fred ''Williamson' and Albert Stanfield have a group called the Eureka, from which some remarkable assays have been obtained. They have done considerable work on the property and are now driving a 60-foot crosscut tunnel. The values are found in tellurium, and assays have run as high as $320. The Shiell brother* are working the Ballarat claim, one of the few copper propositions in the district. Their work has been largely on the surface, but enough has been done to indicate that the lead, now four feet wide, improves steadily iu width and richness with depth. The coal properties of the district haA-e not been exploited to any great extent as yet, but further developments may be announced shortly. The Kettle river and its affluents contain hundreds of tons of float, and the coal is a lirst-class steam product which will eventually be of great value for domestic use. One of the disadvantages under wliich the prospectors labor at the present time arises ont of the arrangements of mining districts. At one point a radius may be drawn of a mile, in which the Vernon, Kettle River and Arrow Lake districts all enter. A prospector may locate a few claims and be compelled, in order to record or look up previous records, to travel as far as Greenwood, a distance of almost 200 miles. The outlay in cash and time thus necessitated is a large item and works a. hardship. Tho solution is to form a new division, with a recorder's office at a central point. This step will doubtless be taken when the business of tho district assumes sufficient magnitude to warrant action.

The completion of the Molly Gibson tramway has been delayed somewhat through waiting for rope to complete tiie work. Tt is estimated by the management that tho .trarn wilKbe-joperatingJn a^.month. Meanwhile work is being proceeded with steadily in the mine. A. crosscut tunnel has been started at a point 210 feet below the fourth level. This will give a maximum depth of 1100 feet. The vein quartets across the hill and when the tunnel crosscuts the lead drifting right and left will be started. The company figure on starting regular shipments at an early date to the Hall Mines smelter and expect to ship 800 to 500 tons of ore monthly. The Molly Gibson will pay a dividend next spring.

Mr. Rolt is actively identified with the Tamarac mine at Ymir, which is preparing to enter the active stage of shipping. He anticipates the tramway now under construction at Nelson will be complete and in operation by the first of the year, when the Tamarac will commence shipping to thecyanide worksatSilica. Thecrew at the property will be largely increased when shipping is inaugurated, the present crew being employed on development exclusively. The Great Britain Group. ' D. D. Birks of Lardo is in the city on his way home after a visit to Rossland. Since his last trip through Nelson Mr. Birks states that matter's have been progressing satisfactorily at the Great Britain group on the dividebetween Meadow and Cooper creeks;. which he has under bond. The cabins have been completed and the seven-mile trail connecting with the, main trail to the lake is practically finished, thus making access easy to the property. Development work is to be started at once. "A crew of nine men is at work, and operations will be continued all winter. Stick to Their Dutch. Cape Town, October 12.���The South African league today passed a resolution in favor of a preferential tariff on British manufactures and adopted a resolution adverse to the Dutch language being abandoned, which was a suggestion of Cecil Rhodes. Sir Alfred Milner, the British high commis- Bioner, has gone to Bloemfontein. PROMINENT U. S. OFFICIALS DOWN WITH THE DISEASE.

Miss Natalie Brown, a stenographer in the employ of the Trust compauy, is also down with the disease. Four hundred and twenty-eight Spanish immigrants are in quarantine here owing to the existence of smallpox in the vessel on which they arrived. Withdrawn Today. Montreal, October 12.���The C. P.

A COLF CLUB FOR NELSON a Is Being Agitated. An organization for the purpose of fostering interest in the ancient and honorable game of golf will probably be instituted in Nelson this fall. In event of it being considered advisable to postpone organization, the proposition will be gone into next spring.�� This point will be determined when the local enthusiasts meet to discuss the matter thoroughly. Judge Forin is one of the leading spirits in the movement, and in regard to the matter he says: "A number of citizens have spoken to me about organizing a golf club and I am convinced that it would be popular. There are several old players in the eity and many others who seem to be anxious to go in for the pastinie. I find we can lay out a first-class six-hole course, on the flats. The'visit of the British Columbia team to. Spokane, where we were hospitably treated, has added an impetus to the proposal and I hope to see it take shape in the hear future. ._ , The -flats along the city front from the Nelson Ice Company's slip west will afford a splendid course. There are marshes,.sand pits, embankments and other obstacles which the golfer delights to overcome, and the additional advantage that any point in the course could be reached from the center of the city in a few minutes. Berlin, October 12.���The proposal of the Russian government that in case of a protracted, divergence of views regarding equitable indemnities, tho matter.might bo commended to the consideration of the international court oi.' arbitration at The Hague, is regarded as the most important development in the Chinese situation*. Nothing was known publicly in Fiiirope concerning it prior to the publication of president McKinley's answer to the note of M. Deleasse. . Most of the papers comment uhsympathetically upon the suggestion. Germany looks upon the report of the death of the empress dowager" as a new Chiuese_intrigue, lt is* supposed that;she intends to disappear temporarily "in order to escape responsibility for the ��� misdeeds of high �� officials, and perhaps to ' prepare - another anti-foreign movement. A high official of the foreign office asserted today that a telegram had been sent to the Chinese government demanding direct information as to whether the empress dowager is dead. No reply has been received and the fpreigu-.office draws the conclusion that the Chinese government is not kept'informed as to the plans of the Sze Hsiah. ' The German foreign ��� office js hot satisfied with the list of culpables supplied by the Chinese government., "The list is notoriously -incomplete," said an influential official today, "as it ^oinits atleas^a schre.of .prominent persons who'were-active leaders'.-in' the massacre of'foreigners." . "This is borne out by all the legations and by -the consular reports from China. It is also borne out by Mr. Conger's statement. Germany, however, is not disposed to insist upon the punishment of all the guilty. What she demands is that an example be made of persons of high rank in order to show the Chinese strikingly and convincingly that the powers have enforced a severe expiation of misdeeds and to teach a wholesome and lasting lesson, the lesson that the lives and property of foreigners must be safe in China." a verdict of accidental death. Dr. Arthur returned from the scene of the fatality last night, and the body was brought in to be shipped east. When the death was reported the coroner ���* was informed that a tree had fallen on McGee, and no apparent reason Avas given, hence the inquest. A "jury was .empanelled on the ground and the evidence of eye-witnesses taken. It eventuated that one tree had been knocked partially down in felling another and had rested in a crotch of a third. McGee was a teamster and had driven his wagon to a point where the balance of the men were working and halted under the leaning tree, which looked quite se-~ cure. -Apparently the animals detected the tree falling, for they ���jumped from beneath it, and as McGee moved to quiet them the tree came -.down, striking him on the top of the skull and causing injuries from which he died in a few minutes. Two other men only escaped by jumping quickly to one side. The late David McGee was 83 years old and came west from Artemisia, Grey county, Ontario, where he leaves a wife and three small children. He was a member of the Canadian Order of Foresters. MaefflLL OPENS THE CA1PAM Addressed the Citizens of Greenwood on Thursday Evening. ALSO EXPRESSED HIS VIEWS TO THE PEOPLE OF MIDWAY NO SETTLEMENT PROBABLE TEN PER CENT INCREASE NOT ALTOGETHER SATISFACTORY. Delegates Consider That Other Griev ances Should Be Rectified Before Accepting Terms. The Hospital-;.Addition. The special committee appointed to proceed with the erection of the =addition=^tb=^tlie-=general^hospital= met yesterday on the grounds with a view to selecting the most suitable site for the projected cottage. This proved to be a delicate proposition. Some 9000 square feet of ground is available and to choose the exact site just near enough and sufficiently distant from the main building to insure the most satisfactory results demanded further consideration and the matter was left open for a few days. Plans are being prepared for the cottage and will be submitted to the committee with estimates shortly. The new appliances for the operating room at the hospital are expected almost daily from the eastern manufacturer. These include a modern operating table and a complete set of surgical instruments. With these additions the directors believe that any class of operation can be performed in Nelson. Shot Dead. Canterbury., B. C., via Golden, October 11.���[Special to The Tribune.]���Arthur Dando, who has lived in Argenta, Kaslo, Sandon and Edmonton, was murdered Tuesday morning in Peterboro by Fred Collins, a painter, formerly of Woodstock, Ontario. Dando was shot through the left lung and groin. Collins was committed for trial. He appears to be insane from being struck by a bottle by Dando Monday night in a house of ill fame. Accidental Death. The outcome of the coroner's inquest iuto the death of the late David A. McGee, who was killed at Winlow's sawmill on Thursday, was Scranton, Pennsylvania, October 12.���The mine workers' convention adjourned, to meet at. 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. Froth the trend of the remarks of the delegates it was gathered that the ten per cent proposition as it now stands has very litcle.chance of being accepted. The delegates seem, it was learned] to be almost unanimous that the operators should first make concessions in the other grievances before the increase is accepted by the thine workers. Great stress was laid on the necessity of abolishing the sliding scale and substituting therefor a tonnage basis on which to fix the rate of wages. The proposition of having the operators guarantee a fixed time for paying the advauce was also thoroughly discussed, Avhile not a]'few of the delegates said they would be satisfied with nothing but a more liberal increase in wages. That the present .convention will not come to .a definite conclusion is the general belief tonight. NELS0N=RIFLE=CL0B^SH00T Good Work Expected. If fair weather favors the occasion the first annual match of the Nelson rifle company today should be a great success. The prize list is worth $125 in round numbers, and has been arranged so that tho inexperienced men will have an excellent chance of making a comfortable winning. The nursery match has been made one of the principal events of the day, and the militiamen eligible to compete in it will not be pitted against experienced shots. This provision should insure a, full turnout of the company. The orders for the day provide for a company parade in uniform at the ranges at 8:30 o'clock this morning. The firing is to commence half au hour later at the 100-yard target. The class firing required by the militia department ia five shots per man at 100, 200, 300 and ���100 yards. The result of the shooting is forwarded to Ottawa and figures in the annual departmental statistics. The-nursery and grand aggregate matches are to be fired at 200, 500 and 000 yards. The members in attendance will be divided into teams .for jt, team shoot. A couple of targets will be used for volley firing, the'team scoring highest after several volleys to win the event. Each team will then be provided with a target and instructed to commence independent fire. After a certain time the targets will be taken down and results figured out. Greenwood, October 12.���[Special to The Tribune]���A. H. MacNeill, Q. C, the Liberal-Conservative candidate for Yale-Cariboo, opened his campaign in the Boundary district on Thursday, the 11th instant, having reached Greenwood the previous night. He was accompanied by W. A. Macdonald, Q. C, of Nelson. As no intimation of the intention of these gentlemen to visit the chief of the Boundary towns this week and address the electors was received, other than a telegram, which came too late to allow of their coming being announced in Wednesday afternoon's issue of the Greenwood Times, the attendance at last night's meeting was not nearly so large as it would have been had more publicity been given'. ��� During the afternoon Mr., MacNeill visited Midway and held a small meeting there. Iu the evening there were about 150 present in the Auditorium, Greenwood, and 11. C. Shaw was voted to the chair. Mr. MacNeill opened by announcing .himself as a party man puro and simple, and expressed the opinion that there was plenty of room in one or the other of the two great political parties of Canada for all the electors without the introduction of a third party. He reviewed the record of the present government during its term of office aud contended that it was more remarkable for what it had neglected to do than for what it had done. The Liberals had gone into power with declared intentions * to bring about-free . trade, but the total reductions tliey had "made on the tariff- were very small, in fact the only thing in which they had ..been true to their free trade professions was in connection with labor, in whicli they had permitted the Chinese to continue free to compete against the workingmen of the West. At the last Dominion election they had gained much support in this province upon the strength of sir Wilfrid Laurier's telegram in reply to one from J. C. McLagan, of the Vancouver effect that since question was the affecting British opinions of the the province upon it would prevail. And yet nothing had been done to cheek this evil until just before the time for the elections to World, to the the Chinese only one then Columbia, the electors iu come on, when the poll tax had been raised to ��100 instead of $."500 as asked for by the workers of the province. True, a commission had been appointed to enquire into this question, but he doubted if it would ever agree upon any effective rcc- oraendation, or would icport whilst it had on it Mr. D. J. Munn, presi- deut of the Salmon Canners Associ- ENDS THE SEASON HAPPILY With a Dinner Party. The Nelson Quoiting Club wound up the season of 1900 last night with a very pleasant dinner at the Waverley hotel. The club's first season has been eminently successful and the organization is to be floated next spring on a more comprehensive scale. It is proposed to erect a club house on new grounds to be decided upon at a future date and to invite all citizens interested in the healthy pastime to become members. The party assembled last night included John Watson, judge Foriu, R. Weir, J. Irvine, W. Miller, J. MncKenzie, B. Walley, A. II. Clements, J. F. Weir, T). Hardie, E. G. Smyth, .Tames O'Shea, captain Mc- Morris, A. W. Purdy, J. H. Wallace, A. M. Snyder and George Nunn. John Watson occupied tho chair. In the club tournament which concluded recently A. IT. Clements capiured the championship with J. H. Wallace as runner-up. Handsome gold scarf pins in tho shape of miniature quoits with a monogram ation of B. C, which was about the largest employer of Chinese and Japanese labor in the province,' to stultify any remedial action Mr. Ralph Smith���the most suitable man obtainable for the commission, by the way���might desire to recommend. He compared the mining towns of Vancouver Island, where Chinese are freely employed, with those of the Kootenay and Boundary, and contended that the "contrast gave ample evidence of the necessity for protecting labor against the Chinese. But labor must look to the Conservative party, for such protection, for the Liberals, would not carry out this policy, which is the right one. The speaker referred to the** Liberal administration of the affairs of the Yukon, which he contended ho Liberal can look on with pride";- to the delay of the government in * sending troops to South Africa- until forced to do so by the strong protests of the people of Canada, and to the scandal in connection - with the supply of food to the ..volunteers. He next commented upon the published Liberal- plat- ' form, one plank in which however he agreed with, viz : the necessity J for the imposition of a sufficient ' duty upon lead products so as to benefit the .silver-lead mining, industry of this province, but; this protection, he declared, would, not be granted by the present Liberal government. - Whilst on the other, hand the Conservatives would **' readily give it. The speaker dealt with* several other matters*;-mentioning particularly the unsatisfactory . attitude of the. Liberal government iriXegard to redistribu- _ -tion and the * much-needed ."sub- - division" of "* the - enormoii3<">Yale- Cariboo constituency - into' at- least three electoral districts. He closed, after pointing out the impossibility of a thorough canvass of so big a constituency, by an appeal to all not to be over confident, but to do thoir utmost to secure his election. R. B. Kerr, barrister of Phoenix, next addressed the meeting, claim- _. ing that the unprecedented prosperity of Canada today was due to the wise'government of the Liberals, and speaking in terms of warm praise-of their leader sir Wilfrid Laurier. He was followed by W. A. Macdonald, who maintained that the Liberals came into. power just at the time that the ebb of depression had ceased and the glow of prosperity had commenced. He spoke effectively for about one hour. ~ Tonight a public meeting will be held at Phoenix and tomorrow night at Grand Forks. Mayor Goodeve, who arrived late last night from Rossland, will also speak at one of these meetings. Mr. MacNeill will return to Rossland on Monday and go thenco to East Kootenay. "N. Q. C\," were purchased by the club and presented to tho winners last night by Mr. Watson and judge Forin respectively. Au inviting collation was served by mine host Stevens, after which a toastlist was introduced. Speeches were contributed by Messrs. Forin, McMorris, Wallace, Snyder' and others. A. thoroughly pleasant evening was passed and the affair was voted a marked success. Want $50,000.

Nanaimo, B. 0., October 5);���Hon. .Inmes Diinsniuir denies in a special telegram to the Free Press, pub- . li.ihedin this evening's issue, astute: ment made by the Scotch miners, i 11 an interview with a Free Press reporter, to the effect that they could not make more than $2 a day, and had to have a Chinese helper. He says that the miners will be' pruaranteed $3 a day if they go to work. Thoy were, he also says, brought out to replace Chinamen, and will not be expected to take Chinese helpers. The miner leaders here think that the Scots - made a mistake in leaving Union so hurriedly, and weakened their case, especially in coming here, instead of - attempting amicable - negotiations with Hon. Mr. Dunsmuir regarding the ' difficulty. Mr." Ralph Smith went to Victoria this morning, to interview lion. Mr. Dunsmuir in a friendly consultation on behalf of the Scotsmen, after which-he will follow 'Messrs. Sloan and Mclnnes in their > tour of the Saanich and C'owichan districts. ���There was a rumor yesterday that the revolt among a section of- tlio Scotch, operators engaged to; work in Hon. Mr. Dunsmuir's mines had-been transmitted to^the. party, hooked to arrive on the Imperial f/tinited yesterday. This proved to; be absolutely unfounded. "The miuers arrived all right, but-the tv revolt'did'not materialize. - ^TheJjimited arrived "at 11 o'clook lust night,, and tho miners," 75 in .viiiimbeivwere sooii-on the.platform. ' Newspaper ' reports _ had -reached - rhem en route of tub-disagreement" : that had occurred with "those who., fame before them, and naturally ��� enough they.looked for some one to - explain the situation. . A" News-Advertiser reporter interviewed several of the men, and was" informed that'the understanding upon upon -which-' they- agreed 'to'come to -'British'.Columbia".was :tliat their wages- should be. $3 per, -dayraud-that they could work in I>airs.if ��� they so desired. Mr." F.'T). Little; manager of the mines;-was at the-depot when-the train arrived. He was met by the miners iu the most friendly way, with good-natured - Scotch ��� jokes and workmen's badinage. Mr. Lit- ;tle:explained to-the-men that the; terms of the company were that =they=sliould=make=$JUper-=day?=as=a- minimum wage. If their location chanced to permit better.pay:to be earned in operating the coal, they could make more. The company would contract to employ them for, two or three years at $3 per day. ; Tliey. would not allow a man to.get . down in tho mine, smoke his pipe, and defy the "company to discharge him. He asked if they had nnder- ��� stood that there was to be such an agreement as that. A dozen voices ' answered "No" to this question, and the men one and all agreed that the statement of the manager, was iu strict conformity with the . understanding they had ��� before leaving the old coiintry. That was what the agent had represented when engaging them. The manager further explained that the men might work iri Paris, hire help, or do as they chose: On that score. There was nothing in the report that they were obliged to work with a Chinaman; in fact, it was because they wished to introduce white labor intotho mines altogether that-they were engaged.' The men inarched from the train to tiie"C- P. It. >'��� wharf; where ~ the steamer Thistle was lying, headed by a>,iolly;fellow*with a concertina. They exchanged jokes in a good Scotch brogue as,they went. There was no mistakiugrtheirMiatioiialty. The Thistle was commissioned to carry them to Union, and after getting tlieir baggage transferred the miners took a stroll up town, andihad'a'jolly hour. The-steamer sailed at 2 o'clock-this morning. Mr. Little was spoken to by tho -reporter relative to the* trouble at the-inines.' * He'said'that the news- '*-*paper' reports* had _ misrepresented the situation. Speaking generally, he7 said that there were about 122 - men in-the first company ithat came out. Of this number there were only 30 who had-refused to work. Their grounds for striking -were certainly not because of breach of faith by the company. The company guaranteed to the men that they,'should ^make. $3 . -per' day, whether they worked in one- inch or ten feet of coal. If the deficient eies of- the location prevented them from making the .$3 per day.-the company ageed to make tJie difference good. The $3 wage was- .the minimum, and there had been no retraction from the agreement. The men now at* work, he said, were a splendid lot of' fellows ���- and good-miners, and apparently they were contented with their lot. "Their ouly objection," said Mr. Little, smiling, "if there is any, is that they have to live in wooden houses. In Scotland the miners scarcely know what a wooden house is. - Bees* Produce $20,000,000. "When the story of the twelfth census is fully told it will show in an interesting way the astonishing -development of. the apiarian industry in the United States," said Prof. L. O. Howard, chief of the bureau of entomology and known all over the country as Uncle Sam's- "bug man." ' "Bee culture is practically a development of the last forty years," he continued, "although isolated individuals were engaged in the work long before that time; The importance of the industry at the present day is not generally realized. There are more than 300,000 persons' engaged in the culture of bees in" the United--States-alone, and the present census will show the present annual value of aparian products to be in excess of $20,000,000. There- are 110 apiarian societies. Eight journals of. some magnitude are de-' -voted to the industry. Fifteen -steam power.-factories' are- engaged in the.production of.supplies for.' the bee industry. ' Mr." Benton, our"- befa expert," estimates'that the present existing flora of the United' ���States could -undoubtedly' support -with"the same average profit ten* times the number of colonies: of- bees it now supports. Think what that means. An industry of $200,000,000 a. year- supporting 3,000,000 healthy, happy workers. "Once the possibilities'' of- the ��� Americaiv-apiary are*���"thoroughly understood,- many of-the .'-thousands' ���barely-existing in-the strenuous life of the great cities will turn to bee culture, which well .repays" the'intelligent andearei'nl worker." Cure for- Malaria. Passengers from the Orient'report* that professor-Koch has'arrived at Hong-Hong. ��� The eminent' bacteriologist of Berlin has devoted a year to scientific inve'stigatio'ns" =in^he���Dutch���West-rndies*=and=iir the German colonies of East Africa for the purpose of testing his cure of malaria, which was only partially successful* in Germany before his- departure. The scientist now announces to the medical world that his cure is positive and that every malarial district can be absolutely purged. Since his stay in Java professor Koch procured several gorillas, infected with malaria, whom he gave hypodermic injections of -his virus, and in their food he mixed a medicine which contained; about 50 per cent of quinine. The doses* were much larger' than : those intended for human'-beings, and the results were: eminently satisfactory. ��� Dr. Koch announces that his medicine is both for curative and preventive purposes. He wants it known that he has found a way of ridding countries of malarial parasites, the mosquitoes. On his arrival at Berlin he will present his official report to the; government and will recommend - that 'measures be taken at once to use his method of exterminating parasites and; his cure for malaria, which he claims can be manufactured in all countries. in DEPENDS ON HOW YOU BUY Wholesale and Retail XMmi&TOGK OF GOODS BOUGHT THIS YEAR HAS NO EQUAL IN B. 0.

A full rehearsal of the-principals, chorus and orchestra" of- the "Mikado" will be held at. the opera house this afternoon at 1:JJ0 o'clock. The managent of Gorton's Minstrels, who have the opera house engaged for the day, have courteously permitted the amateiu\s to uso the stage. The-Liberals will have their first general meeting tonight .in the Hume building on Vernon street. All voters who intend supporting candidate Galliher are invited to be present. The Conservatives are holding meetings nightly in their committee rooms in the Houston block. The Labor party men are workiug quietly and they say successfully. ��� Fred Irvine & Co. claim that by constantly' using the Daily and Weekly editions of The Tribune as an advertising medium, and .making their -prices right, they have put a stop to the people of Nelson and Slocan ridings sending orders Cor millinery and dry' goods to department stores in Toronto and Montreal, lb pays to advertise in a newspaper that hns a standing in a. community. Gorton's minstrels entertained a large audience at the opera house last night and entertained them well. - The company's first part is splendidly produced and is replete with new songs well sung and humorous dialogue which kept the audience intensely amused. The olio comprises a series of original and catchy features, iu addition to which the work of the orchestra is excellent. The stage setting is handsome, and altogether the show merits patronage. Tonight the minstrels hold the boards again and should have a crowded house. .The Nelson Mattress Company is now turning out'goods aud will be placing its product on the market extensively.when all the plant is installed and working smoothly. The firm has orders ahead for some time. One of the ingenious mechanical contrivances is the machine used for shredding the eottonwood used in the center of mattresses. It shaves off long thin strips which retain tlieir resistence indefinitely, and are unimpaired long after the excelsior from fir and other woods used in the east have become brittle and flat. The company is turning out a triple cable mattress which is as near the ideal product as possible. - Will Blow in, on "Wednesday. v: The second furnace of.vthesGraiid -F6rks sinelter will be blown' in on Wednesday next.

A large sized discord exists iu connection with the newly reorganized Smelter band and the Citizens' baud, which ."went out of existence recently after lasting over the summer months. Certain musical instruments are the bone���of contention and the proposition has already reached the stage where the assistance of the law^ has been enjoined to secure an arrangement. The original Smelter band went out of business last winter when the Hall Mines smelter shut down. A number of the members went into the Citizens' band on its organization and used the instruments they had received from the Smelter baud. Then the Citizens', band was laid away in the local musical cemetery aud the Smelter band was reorganized. It is asserted that the instruments in question belonged to the smelter, band a3. a. whole aud not to the individual members. Hence the new Smelter band claims ownership, which is now denied by tlieiparty now.in- possession.

Title | The Nelson Tribune |
Publisher | Nelson, B.C. : Tribune Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1900-10-13 |
Description | The Tribune was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from November 1892 to November 1905. The Tribune was published and edited by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. Houston had established the Miner in Nelson in 1890, and, after leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, he established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. In August 1901, the title of the paper was changed to the Nelson Tribune. |
