According to a reeent British consular report the production of copper in Japan i* steadily increasing. The total exports in 1805 were 6.500 long tons, against 7,100 tons in JStU, aud 6,000 tons in 1803. The decrease iu exports in 1895 was partly due to the Kmnller shipment to China, and partly to the large demand at home, chief!) for use in manufacturing war mater ial. An Irleh Wltnooo.

Judging from tho way the various local stocks are being bought np in this district, it is evident that the public ia becoming awake to the fact that by purchasing a nuaaber of shares in a good local eompany at a reasonable rate they are invested in the best way possible. Take, for instance the l.e Roi mine at Rossland, whieh Hold stocks some three yeara age at a few cents and today is selling at |8 per share, 01 take tbe War Eagle stock which could be bought net long ago for a mere song, and today ia selling liko hot cakea at • 1.70. You may say there is but one Ln Roi or War Eagle. Very True. But ihore are several other properti*-** in tbe Itosslaud diatrict that an- today paying dividends that a feiv months ago were selling atmik at low pricna. Then, nearer home we have the Cariboo, the stock of which whs offered a few months ago at very low prices, and today ia in demand st 43 cents; also tbe Ironsides stock whioh in a few months has ripen from a low figure to 15 eents a share.
