(Special to the Dally Canadian.) tlrand Porks, July 9.���The 0, P. It- are now making arrangements to do away with lhe big bridge al Cascade, and will in Its place make a gigantic nil. Al present bunk bouses are being built at Cascade for the men, und lhe work will start at once. Tbe fill will be over a quarter of a mile in length and over 800 feet high, and will lake fully two years lo complete It. It will cost fully hair a million dollars. Over inn men will he employed on the works. The slatting of Ibis kind ot work at Cascade has brought new life to the sleepy burg, which is now Ihe acme of activity. Word has reached here from Christina lake that greal numbers of lour- ists ore at the lake now. The two steamboats are kept more than busy. The llshlng there now Is excellent, as is also the trolling for salmon iroul. those weighing 20 pounds being often caught, while the tlsh known ns the "ling." weighing 25 pounds, are also plentiful, as well as brook and rainbow. Andrew Thompson, the aerial artist of the Boundary district, arrived here yesterday from Cascade. In referring io his proposed flying machine ascension, Mr. Thompson in an Interview with your correspondent said: "Yes, lhe (lying machine Is all right. I am working steadily on it at Cascade, but now I nm delayed on account of having to wall for some of the steel frame, work which will have lo be made by Ihe Grand Forks Steel Structural Works. As soon ns they turn out tills work for mo 1 can complete the machine in a very short time. At any mte, I fully expect to be aide to make tny first ascension from Qrand Forks within one month's time. There is no doubt about it working satisfactorily, for I made nn ascension some three years ago in one ot the same design. I went 800 feet high, and 11 worked all right. It is quite probable that l will operate an aerial stage line this summer between Grand Forks and Franklin camp. I may say that already orders are coming In for nlr motors, and after my flrsl ascension the machines will be In great demand." Mining Records.

YVl-ioleMdlts Pr>ovl��ton- iliuiilio Consolidated Coniuaay, Is doing a greal deal of work, When Halts',I as lo the nature of the work lu whu.li Mr. IIoIikuii i.-i al present engaged. Mr. ureen saiii lu- hud on band a big scheme ot bringing water autn- Chun lor his operations ou the property that, has been acquired hy the Guggenheim*. Mr. iisih.-ioti is certainly demonstrating his faith, as well as thai ol bis principals, in iho richness ot Qarlboo as ii hydraulic tsolil mine venture, flu lu ul lhe present time Hpcmling a great deal of money in connection with ins enterprise. Mr. Qreen was given to understand Ihai Mr. llohsons freight hill alone al- ready this year amounts io between ti'GAM ami Jlou.iiuo. In; is uow constructing ililelies lo bring water from Spanish lake, ami when completed and an adequate supply Obtained, there will be no question as to whal the result will he���a very large profit lor tin; syu- ilieale, wlio are the owuers of several properties to he operated. Mr. tlreen speaks very emphatically of tne good work Mr. llohson is doing, and states that he deserves good credit from the people ami ihe province. "tinder the new conditions," says Mr. Qreen, 'it will not he very long before the position of Cariboo will rank amongst thi- salest and most profitable Investments in the world." As regards Kelthley creek, the visitor noticed ilm number of properties which are being worked ai a protit. While there Mr. Qreen was shown some fine samples of gold taken Irom different workings, 'ihai old Stand-by, Mr. Holier! Uootiand. among others, Is one ol the many gentlemen who aie making fair prolit from the workings in lhat creek. Leaving Kelthley creek, Mr. tlreen vlsiled in turn yuesnel, dlethiey and Baikervllle. and found all along the Hue evidences ol prosperity, the- people having every tallh in the ricbuess of their individual claims aud lhal part ol the district At Uarkervtlle, lu company with Samuel Hodgers icx-M. P. P.), Mr. Ureen visited lhe old hisinricai workings on Williams creek, aud wus very much Interested in Inspecting claims that iu ihe past had yielded millions oi dollars iu gold io the pioneer placer millers. He was glad lo see that a number oi Ihe benches hist worked by lhe pioneer miners are now being worked under new and modern conditions, and nun are demonstrating iheir faith in putting money into the enterprise. During ihe reiitrn trip Mr, Qreen waa fortunate iu meeting Mr, Bailey, cugi- net i in charge ol the La i-'oiiiiiiu.i property, situated in the once famous Lightning Creek district Mr. Qreen was accompanied during the whole trip hy Mr. !���'. C. Gamble, provincial works engineer, ihey had the pleasure ol descending a abaft and goiug through several drifts, which were opening into rich, new gravels under stream. Tin- general management ot this seems to he carried on iu a very Hun-., ough and business-like manner, and Mr. tlreen believes, like lln manager, thai when they strike the richer gravels up stream, they will he amply repaid for all the labor expended. .Mr. (liven adds lhat Cariboo will again demonstrate a remarkable progress, and capital economically expend- ed will reap a rich reward. He was surprised to lind so much open and arable laud in that pot lion ot ihe province, and also very much Impressed with the possibilities of the Cariboo as a ranching district, and is now surprised to lind that the people do nol realize the possibilities ol the exploitation in this province along these lines, 'lho farms and rani ins were a revelation lo hliu. and, he believes, would he to thousands ii they went to sei' them. .Mr. tlreen states lhal nowhere In British Columbia can one lind ".nn miles ol" road like tin' Cariboo road, along which there lire so many stopiiiu:; places. lu connection with Mr. Green's visit to the Cariboo, Mr. Gamble inspected the road, and. taken altogether, it is in good condition. Beginning at the Right End. Fifty German edilors sailed from llremerhuven for London on Tuesday, .Mine llllh. on Ibe Kron 1'rlnz Wllhelm. They were to be Ibe guests of the Anglo .German friendship committee, Eighteen Berlin papers are represented, and there are edilors of lite most Influential organs of Frankfort, Munich, Leipzig, Dresden and a dozen oilier Gorman towns, while a Viennese editor is also with the party. The German papers, in leading articles, have warmly approved the object of bringing England and Qor- many Inlo more friendly relationship. The king's Invitation lo the editors to visit Windsor Castle bus given special pleasure, This strikes us ns a very sensible ami far*sigbtsd policy on tlm part of i hose'good Englishmen who are working to bring about a better statu of feeling between the peoples of the two greal nations. The German press, fettered though U Is lo some extent Is still u mighty moulder of pobllc opinion within the (lerinan empire, ami withoul doubt after this visit a kindlier tone toward llriiuin will show itself in the columns of the papers reprt - seined. A very few Indeed have vislti-d Englishmen at home withoul coming away with a better opinion of them, uml finding it harder to think menu and unworthy things of them. Ii is especially pleasing to see our beloved King Edward VII. still playing his part a:, pi'.i maker among the nations with consummate grace und tact. The empire will never know how a great a debt n owes him for his tinlqui' ser ttoes along this line. The roving gold of life. eye seldom lights on lb. CANADIAN Pacific RAILWAY.
