There has been considerable doubt as  to the amount of this indebtedness, but  unless some of the bonds were issued  just before or since the intervention of  the United States the figures are correct.

They thought the end of the  world had come. Two estates near that  of the correspondent were burned and  forests were set on fire by the lava. One  superintendent was badly burned while  going to another estate for relief, and  on his .arrival fell into a swoon from -  which he did not recover. Another superintendent was drowned, with his two  children, and the correspondent feared  that many would be burned to death, a  fear which when details were afterwards  learned proved all too'true.

Failure of Woman Governmeut.  Lincoln, N, J., is a -jtriking example  of the failure of government by women.  It was founded four years ago and ils  management was placed in the hands  of the fair sex. AVomen were given  eaual rights with men in the town's  affairs. They had a full vote and, being in'the majority, elected the town  officers. The first election day brou*;bt  trouble. Some of tho women delay-:!  too long with their shopping in a neighboring town and the polls were closed  before they returned to vote. The factional spirit which this created re  suited in the success of the opposition  at the next election.- Tne town might  have survived, nevertheless, but for unwise legislation. The town council, composed of women, passed an ordinance  requiring the owners of a terra sotta  factory to paint the structure a more  fashionable color than brick red. The  factory owners moved the establishment  elsewhere rather than submit. Then a  box factory was suppressed because of  the noise it created. Then there was a  general quarrel because everybody could  not be provided with a public park and  the best pavement in front of every individual front door, and none would  consent to giving franchises to trolley  railroads on any streets except those  occupied by their nei-rhbors. Finally,  the women who ran again for ofllce  were defeated and they moved away.  Now the court of chancery has ordered  the wreck of the town to be sold at public auction.���San Francisco Chronicle.

The machine is submerged and we run a  2.1-2 Inch hose to It and force the water  at a pressure of 120 pounds from the nozzle  backward through the dredge tube.

A  drum-  "mer for an Eastern or Coast whole-  " sale house makes a trip through Koo-  " tenay   or   Yale,   gets   orders - from   a  " dozen different retailers, sufficient  to  " make   up   a  carload,   and   the   goods  " are hauled and  delivered at just the  " same freight rate as goods arc hauled  " an"d delivered at Nelson to the whols-  V sale dealers.   The Nelson wholesalers,  " in order to do business, must cut prices  "just the amount of the local  freight  " rate,. from   Nelson   to   the   points   to  "which  goods  are shipped,  and  to  do  " this often means selling goods at a  " loss, instead of at a profit." The whole-  slers do not complain of the volume of  business.    All agree that there is sufficient  business'in  the  country-..dfrectly  'tributary to Nelson, and. that the business can be handled to good advantage  ���from Nelson, if only'the'railways .'would  give   our   wholesalers, a  square    deal,  which they appear unwilling, to do. -'As  -an instance:    The C: P. R.<makes a rate  -of-Sa-cents^on^a^certain^class-vof-merr"  chandise from Vancouver to,.Nelson ..and  a rate of 88  cents  on the same, class  from   Vancouver- to   Cranbrook.    This  shows that, the" C.  P.

Co-  bourn, secretary of the board of agriculture, does not share in tlio general  opinion that ruin will come upon Kansas as a result of the present dry spell.  The damage to hay and corn has been  serious, but the deficiency will be nearly  mado up by the great crops of kalnr  corn and alfalfa that have been raised.  Mr. Cobourn states that there are over  300,000 acres of kaflir corn and alfalfa  in the state, which have not been materially affected by the dry weather. In  addition to this there are 40,000,000 bushels of old corn in the farmers' hands.  NEW YORK, July m���The proposed  continental boycott of American goods  is taken very seriously in London city  circles, says a London dispatch to the  Tribune. The view is, the correspondent says, that the menace of America  is not merely a matter of trade. They  profess to regard the question from a  highly moral standpoint. They say it  is no advantage to the world that a  great nation should dominate it with  ideals that money is the controlling  power. The ideals of Europe have ever  been higher than that adopted as the  American standard,  ST. JOHNS.

HOLT,  Manager Nelson Branch.  The Circle Bar outfit, as a little cole-  lacked many of the adjuncts of civilization which How go far to make the  groat West a paradise in comparison to  its former days.  Tlio Circle Bar outfit, as a little codo-  ny of cattlemen was called, from the  brand of the "cattle king" who employed them, wore in a' fair way of  'forgetting: the traditions of their eastern homes, when the arrival- of two  additions to their ever-changing family  brought back "a vivid recollection of  former days lo the whole reckless crowd.  Their cook, a drunken Swede, had been  killed in a quarrel with a half breed Indian, and it was his successor who indirectly brought about this transformation.  One day a lanky "Down Easterner"  drew rein before the Circle Bar outfit.  "I'm Meters, the new cook," he announced to the group of cowboys by  the door.  "What ye got on yer pommel?" queried the. horso wrangler-of the outfit-.  '���That's rny kid," replied Peters, with  evident pride,.-exhibiting a chubby boy  of 12. His words were heard in the  ranchhouse, and the rest of the cow-  hoys poured out at once to see the boy.  He was a. genuine curiosity to those  men, years'away from the sight of a.  child's face, excepting the young Indian children! who scuttled away at their  -   approach.     - ;  The boy scrambled to the ground  and stood looking at the dingy ranch-  house. . --- .  "I don't think much of this placo;  it's so very dirty," he said to the cow-  hoys. They looked at each : other,  '.���scratched'- their heads and grinned  sheepishly. "It's, dirty," they said, and  from that day "Kid" Peters ruled the  Circle Bar.  -;i must havo some fireworks," announced the Kid a week1 later. "Only  '.. five days before the Fourth of July,'-  you know." The men looked at oach  other wild-eyed. How they had.,-forgotten! "Why, back East���" "Ye shall  hev' 'cm, Kid," said the horSewrangler.  V The men contributed generously to  "the Kid's blowout," as thoy called it."  For three days packages came addressed to "Mister Kid Peters," from  Clay Gulch, the nearest town, 20 miles  ���away. The Kid's days were passed in  a fever'of anticipation.  The   night    before    the   Fourth    the.  members of the outfit were seated  on  boxes  and  logs  outside  of  the  ranch-  house,-seeking relief from tlie oppres-;  sive heat, when  a roll of approaching  [ hoof-beats aroused them.  - A horseman  /drew rein before the door.    His horse:  '' sat    down.      "Apaches!"    he   shouted.:  "Burnt out old Joe.    I got through"���<  he fell limply on the hot sod. An arrow  shaft protruded from his side.  The men awoke.from- their lethargy.  The cattle were corralled. Men lined  the high log fences. Only Pete stayed  jn the ranchhouse. The cattle must be  protected.  At length a line of shadowy figures  topped a distant ridge. The moon arose,.  =sho-w-ing=a=bantWoJLJiuli<a.nsJn^fjillJ=wax=  . paint deploying silently toward the cor-  .ral. They were aftor the cattle. A sharp  crack of Winchesters from the corral  caused them to vanish behind tufts of  grass and bumps of ground. Somo  sprawled in attitudes not lifelike, but  there were a great many who steadily  advanced, creeping and firing toward  ���the corral. Tho moon went under a  cloud, the painted and feathered figures  gathered and rushed at the stockade.  The cattlemen worked their repeaters  desperately. The Indians fell back, then  gathered again.  "Another rush and it's all over,"  groaned Jim Howard, the "boss" of. tho  outfit, from behind his loophole in tho  corral fence. "They're a-gcltin' ready,"  gasped tlie horse wrangler. Then a  wonderful thing happened! The ranch-  ��� house vomited lire. Long, snaky streaks  of fire shot toward tlie Indians. Bail:*  of flame hung over the feathered heads,  then burst into little globes of many colored sparks, Then threads of light  blushed over painted bodies and then  'flared up bravely beforo going out. It  was the "Kid" taking a hand in the battle with his fireworks. Whirling pin-  wheeels cast a vivid reflection over the  astonished savages, throwing overy figure in relief. A furious 'volley came  from the corral. The range was short,  the aim was deadly. Many of the dusky  figures fell-limply in strange attitude.*,.  The rest drew off. "Waugh!" said Striking Snake. "Bad medicine." Their  scattered shots stopped altogether. Soon  the nervous trot of pony hoofs resounded on the prairie sod. At a final blaze  of rockets from the ranchhouse the tret  broke into a gallop.   They were gone.  The men lay behind the corral fencss  until daylight broke. Then they  streamed into .the ranchhouse, whore  they found the "Kid" in tears. "Jim"  Howard, the "boss," caught the little  figure in his arms.  "Ye musn't cry, 'Kid,'" he said,  "Why, you're a regular hero., Heroes  don't cry."  "But I shot off all my fireworks."  Gobbed tho boy. "'Can't have no Fourth  now."  "Well, young man." said the "bo's,"  ���'I guess we had about as much excitement last night as is coming to most  people on the Fourth. Don't you' think  it is better to lick a lot of Indians with  fireworks than just to pop away for  fun?"    The "Kid" dried his eyes and  smiled.    "That's so,"  thought of that."  he said.   "I never  Some Strike Statistics.  Statistics given in animal reports on  strikes and lockouts in England, Germany, France and Austria during 1S99  show that in Germany the number of  strikes and lockouts Avas nearly double  tliat of either of the other three countries. This fact points to a high degree  of industrial .-activity in Germany.  Strikes are most apt to occur in time  cf prosperity than in time of depression.  There-were 12SS strikes reported in 1899,  of which 3S1 succeeded and 429 partially  succeeded. In Great Britain there were  719 strikes and lockouts, 230 of which  were settled in favor of.the trades, and  230 in favor of employers"; 23G were compromised.  In France there were 740 strikes and  10 lockouts. Of the strikes ISO were  successful, 2S2 partly successful, and 277  failures. The number of strikes reported in Austria in 1S99 were 311, of which  15.41 per cent succeeded, 45.02 per cent  succeeded partly and 39.55, per cent  failed. The largest percentage of any  successful strike was claimed by England, the home of trade unionism.  The report of tlie French government  gives statistics of strikes for 10 years.  Of the 4310 strikes reported in that period 2125 were, due, either wholly or in  part, to demands for increased wages,  and 544 to demands against reduction  of wages; 706 were due to the demands  for or against the dischaVge of workmen, foremen or directors, or for their  reinstatement, and 472 for- reduction in  the hours of wages.  The demands regarding wages and  hours of labor were most successful or  partially so, while those for or against  the discharge of workmen or for their  reinstatement usually'failed. .-  Capital        -      -      $2,600,000  Rest       -      -      -    $1,850,000  H.

A story" comes from the Slocan that  goes to show that men are a good-deal  like sheep". A night shift boss atone of the  mines had to throw "up his job in order to  do assesment work on claims he, owned  in another district.- The superintendent  instructed the'-day shift boss to select a  man to take the position. Thero were two  applicants, each of whom had his following. One was selected, and-the other and  his following rolled their blankets and  .went down the hill. This -so, angered the  other, that' he and his-following- did :like-  wisoi leaving the mine' without a night  shift.  City's Collections Good  The City of,Nelson is a fairly good collector."

According to secretary Labouchere of tho  Le Roi Mining Company, the mine, will  soon be able to treat $7 ore at a profit.  That would be a substantial lowering of  the shipping grade, which is unofficially  supposed to be about $10 pei* ton.  Secretary 'Labouchere has a number of  other Interesting things to say, according  to a London" financial paper of June 25th.  which published an interview with him.  Mr. Labouchere is' "credited with saying  that the mine is equipped with machinery  worth ��500.0007 or $2,500,000. This will be  news to most Americans. The value of the  smelter has never been estimated at more  than $1,000,000, and it has never been supposed that the mine outfit was worth $1,-  500,000. But' here is the interview:  "AVhen you say that there Is in sight  ��3,000,000 of ore, are you taking into cbn-  sid'eration what has been opened up since  October?"  "No. We wore then only down to7 the  900 foot level, nor ��� had any driving been  done at this depth; but we are now down  to the 1100 foot level and over ��4,000,000  is now in- sight. ,  "Our capital, as you know, is ��1,000,000, in  ��5 shares, which now stands at about  three premium, so that the total market  ���value of the mine Is ��1,600,000. The ore in  isight, as I.have told you, amounts to ��4,-  000,000 and the cost of working is well in-  .side 60-per cent, sp that the remaining 40  per cent Is clean profit. This 40 per cent  amounts to ��1,600,000, so that the market  value of the mine is represented by the ore  iii sight alone, without taking Into consideration the .machinery, worth about  ��500,000, and the whole of the remaining  possibilities of the mine.  "How much do you owe the Bank of  Montreal?" ���  "Only ��108,000, but this is more than cov-  =erod=by-oro-and=matte=ln=transltr=We=caif  always get an advance up to 50 per cent  of our ore in sight." The secretary added  that It was not likely that the .smelter  strike 'would extend to the mine. The  smelter, he said, would be able to treat  1500 tons per day shortly, aiid this would  considerably reduce the,cost of treatment.  "Indeed, we shall be able to treat $7 ore."  ���'-'What is the. average value of your ore  now?"    fxy,..'

HELENA, Mont., July 16.���A special from  Big Sandy, in northern Montana, tells of  the lynching of three horse thieves by a  posse of Infuriated ranchers on the Missouri river just below Judith, Saturday  afternoon, Details are monger, but then-  Is no doubt of the authenticity of the report, which was brought into Big Sandy  today by John Tingley, a well known cattleman. The men, mounted on their horses,  were driven under a tree, the nooses were  adjus.'ed over a convenient limb and the  animals then driven out from underneath  them, leaving the bodies dangling iri the  air. The men reported hanged were "Bucking Bill," who worked/formerly for McNamara; Fred ' Conne " and- Pete AValler,  both old timers In that country, and each  bearing a bad reputation. These men have  been suspected of horse stealing for some  time and just before, the news reached Big  Sandy a posse was being organized to go  out after them. .  ARTICLES FOR SALE.
