to re dark Unit tbo building of such
mi immense dam was a gigantic undertaking and that tho holding back
uf such an immense body of water
would not he iiccomplisiicd without
some troublo and that it was a big

Mr. lUinmoiid, of Toronto, a largo
stock holder in Ihn Cariboo Hydrau
lie Mining Company, spout a couple
nftliiva at lliat mine and BfiW tho
''cleanup" there on tiie 15ili iust.,
which yielded, i am told' a sploudid
ffohl brijk weighing nearly 2;080
ounces, valued ut 605,730, This
cleanup was made after washing
nearly lu days in Pit No, 1, with
£,000 inches of water, bein^ a daily
yield of 112,885 per day, and much of
tho water was need in clearing thp
pit and sluices nf top waste tint and
boulder clay which was continually
caving from the top of the high btiuk.
This is a pretty good result even
for Cariboo; and will, I believe, heal
lho memd of any hydraulic mine in
llii.-i ooiintry or any oilier ou the Pa-
utHo coast,
A few days after thc cleanup abovo
tniuMiiiietl, the mine was started up
iigatn, ami washing waa continued
for thi'oo or four lioura each day, until
Monday last ("JCil-.), whon thu water
supply was cut so short by the frost
of thc prtvio.-s fow iilghtB, thai
manager llubpon ordered tho work to
be wound up for, the Buason, and the
iitiul cleanup made.
Aficr the oleuDUp was made, 15
miners were laid off, leaving the balance u( tha ci-ftw t.) replncc- the filuic-.*
blocks and put the mine in readiness
fur next soasnn's work.
From one of tlio Califdrnians who
assisted in the last cleanup, and who
wna hoar again List week to cxamlo
the Maud liydrauiio Mine, 4 mile
down thj Quesnelle Hvor, and ono of
the prnpertnjs said to havo been sold
t.» Col. Fallback and tint British
North "West Mining Co. It is
tiiought by somo of the interested
p-jities liore, that the sales of the
Maud and the other mining claims,
transferred under bond to Col. Fish-
oack & Co. have not been oonsuma*
ted.
The cnrpatitcrs nnd laborers that
had boen set lo work by Col. Fish-
back, in September last, havo been
laid off, and are awaiting bulh orders
ami funds, both which seem uluw in
arriving.
Mi*. Anderson returned from tho
Maud oil the y-.udjnst., and left next
d<y fur Florsefly to inspect some mining property there, and get samples
of tlio cemented gravel from the
HorBcfly Hydraulic mine also, I am

The vibit
Uited tho Foilts before his depar-J 0f.these geiitlume
turo for homo, 1 learned that for
the lasl cleanup) only 2,000 inches of
water was used for 24 hours (une day)
in Pit No. 1, ana that only one brunch
sluice and live or tix boxes of another
brunch was cleaned up, il not Wing
consider-*d necessary lo clo&ti up
moro of the sluice*1, aa tho gold
would be all found in tho few dead
box"?, after so short a ron of waler.
The result of the cleanup as given
to mo by this miner was 600 buncos
uf amilgtm, which lie ostimateJ was
worth between *53 and $10 per ounce,
or u total of $4,500 to -.5,000 for the
4 hoars run of water. This statement seemed so high that 1 doubted
its troth, antl would not have sent it
you for publication if I had not
proved its approximate eoncctiicss by
further inipnry.
It ia a great pity Manager Hubson
could not have hud aulTioient water to
have run tha uiiue (since tho cleanup
tist last), with a full head of
water for 20 to 24 hours each day, up
to tho present limp.
If hu had, I believe that lie could
have proved that no hydraulic mine
iu California or Australia, or the gold
reefs of South Africa, could bear
comparison wiih tlio output of gild

The several shareholders who re-

whioh they feel confident that the
director*- will order paid at thi annual
meeting in December,
Even a small dividend would satisfy many of them, but none at all
would bo an awful disappointment,
and cause a regular monkey and parrot row, make thc cars of lho directors burn, and their visits to this
usually quiet town a rather dangerous
experiment. 'Tia to be hoped that
tho gontlepion who manage the
Cariboo's affairs in Vancouver, will
take heed of tlieso few hints, and
treat tliero brother shareholders residing here, aa their ooiifidetK-e iu tho

Camp M'Klnney Tragody.
It is learned that Roderick, the
Soivttl« civil engineer, who waa e"
by lhe |-;rcmau of thc Cariboo mine
near camp McKinney. in this Pro
yinco, was ill nt the time thc socre
'"iry of t'ne company was held up
and robbed of $11,000 in gold bul
lion. Soon after the robbery hi
returned to Seattle. A week ago
Roderick loft that city, ostensibly on
liuainesa-. Detectives believe thnt ho
ifnd gono buck after llio bullion ho
aould not at first carry away, nn thoro
were three bars, two largo and one
small one. Tho small one rrint-iirir-tl
$1,600, and it was believed Roderick
took tbat one out and hid the other
two. Nothing more wus henrd of lhe
■case until a telegram Btmounced tin
Killing oi Roderick. It isntnted that
letcclivcs have two utTadnvits from
ni1!! who live at the Cariboo mine,
irilfjflng th.it  Roderick trlocl* to gr.i
had hvo hearts. A doctor who
.1 not believe tlie man's statement nnd proceeded lo make an examination was able to detect two
heurl-beals, one on the right niul one
im the left Bide uf tho body. This
might be cnused by tt traiiSmittance
of action, so tho man was told. ■ Flu
staggered tlio phyaioati by stopping
ilie ono and allowing thc oilier to
beat, nud by making them beat nl-
tcrnatnly, Thoy do not know how to
explain the phenomenon.
Romarkfible Water F. rco.
The effect of thc hydraulic mo!or,
-liich is now hiring u«eil fot tlie. pur
lose of moving masses of eartii, well
nigh passes belief. A stream of
water issuing from a pipe six inches
in diameter, with a full behind it of
!J75 foet, will carry a wny 11 Holkl ruck
weighing a ton or moro lo a distance
of 50 or 100 feet.
Tho electricity of lhe stream is
lerrifiio aud lhe colom of water pro*
jeclcd ia so solid that if a crowbar or
any other heavy object be thrust
against it, the imprlnglng object will
ba hurled a considerable distance.
By this stream of water it man
would be instantly hilled if he came
in contact with it, even at a distance
of 200 feet.
At 200 fcot from liie nozzle a six-
inch stream with 375 feet full, pro>
jccttid momentarily against ihc trunk
of a tree, will In a seeand denude it

Confined to il e surface, ihe enormous cost and almost insuperable difficulties of transport'ng heavy machinery necessitating'tho employment
of ihe most primitive appliances in mining'. These obstacles to tht) lull

northern Iiritish Columhia, with tlio res-tilt that the work of development has boon vigorously Hfid extensively prosecuted. During the past
two years -govern 1 costly hydraulic plants havo been introduced by different wealthy mining companies which nro now operating well-known
claims with must gratifying results, and ilium is every prospect of a
second golden harvest which in its immensity and value wil! completely
overshadow that which made Cariboo famous thirty years ngo.
Several very promising quarlz hen ring locations arealso being developed in
