VOL. 5.���������NO. 37. SANDON, B. C, SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 1902. $2.00 PER YEAR. CUPS AN The Grand Challenge, AH Comers, Oliver, Hudson Bay Cups Won By Silver City Rinks, With Good Prospects of Winning the Consolation Also. The bonspiel ooened on SIonday evening last although on account of the soft weather the prospects for curling were not bright. The ice was wet and heavy and good curling out of the question. The visitors arrived by both railways morning and 'evening, the number of rinks expected being cut down to ten by the non-appearance of the representatives from Ashcroft. and Phoenix. The competing rinks were four from Ro8sland, three from Nelson, two from Kaslo and two from Revelstoke. In the evening a meeting to arrange the players was held in the Reco at which it was arranged for the different rinks to contest the All Comers cup against the entire Sandon club, and the bonspiel to start.,at 7:30 p.m. Four 'sheets'of ice were provided, one in the curling rink and three in the skating rink. Sharp on time four roarin' games started, and some of them were 'roarers' in earnest. A- large number of spectators were present who were as enthusiastic as the curlers themselves. The first four games were won by the entire Sandon quartette, but in the next series they were not bo successful; however, they had such a large score to their . credit as to be pretty certain of winning but. After the last game was played the score stood Sandon 98; all-comers 5)4; leaving Sandon the victor by four points. This is certainly a feather in the Silver City's cap, as a number of its leads never curled before this season and these were pitted against picked rinks from the outside. The local club has a membership of 32, and of this 28 entered the contest, the other four being unable to attend. The following is a summary of the game: FIRST EVENT. Mackintosh Cup (allcomers), presented by Hon. C. IT, Mackintosh. Sandon Rinks against an equal number of Visiting Rinks. Prize���������Four Gentlemen's Travelling Cases, value $50. Presented by the Sandon Curling Club, Scott beat Smith of Rossland by a score of 12 to 6. In the first half the game was 0 to 2 in favor of Smith, when Sandon got down to work and never gave Rossland a chance to score the rest of the game. Dan McLachlan doubled up the score with Fraser of the same city, 10 to 5. Gomm worsted McQueen of the Golden City by 9 points to Mac's 5. Hall saved Sandon from defeat by Buchanan of Kaslo, in a close game by one point, score 10 to 9. Alex Crawford was vanquished by Brown of Revelstoke, to the tune of 14 to G. Hood got even by turning the tables on Hodge of Nelson, by a score of 15 to 5).. Grimmett administered the same dose to Turner of the same city,score 11 to 8. Gomm met defeat in his second game, was played immediately after his first, the heavy ice and his tired players telling severely against him. Plisoppo- nent, Richardson of Nelson, piling up a score of 18 points to the enthusiastic Doctor's 5. ' Though defeated he was not disheartened, and after playing nearly all night he was as, jolly as ever,the nextday. v Grimmett in his second game was pitted against. Rae of Revelstoke, and after a very close contest tied him, at the finish the score was 12 to 12. One of the keenest matches in this contest was that between Scott and the redoubtable Gray of Rossland. This game was played earl}'onTuesday morning and the ice in fair shape. It was one of the most exciting in the schedule and resulted in another tie, the score at the close being 8 to 8. This ended the series for the "All Comers," the visiting rinks being all defeated. This finishes thecontestonly as far as outsiders are concerned, there are four of the Sandon rinks undefeated, and these will contest each .other later on. In any event the Mackintosh All Comers cup will stay in Sandon for a year at least. played neither side scored, there being no stones "in the house." But such as the game was of wobbling instead of curling it was very close. Some of the spectators on seeing the stones coming down the ice almost on the handles, remarked that they walked in the ring instead of curling to the"T." A summary of the games played is as follows: "Wilson of Sandon defeated Gray of Rossland in a tight game by a score of 7 to 0. Fraser of Rossland won his by default Crawford of Sandon beat Smith of Rossland in very close match by 1 point, score 9 to 8. Brown of Revelstoke downed Turner of Nelson bv a score of 13 to 7. Hall of Sandon put McQueen of Rossland out of this contest by 1 point. In a well fought game the score at the close was 11 to 10 in favor of Hall. Rae of Revelstoke defeated Hodge of Nelson in a score of 10 to 7. McLachlan of Sandon came out victorious over Buchanan of Kaslo, the score being 15 to 10. Grimmett of Sandon met defeat by Richardson of Nelson, the score being 11 to 7 in favor of the latter. This ended the Grand Challenge contest on Tuesday. The ice was so sloppy playing was discontinued for a, day to see if the weather would turn cold enough to freeze. There were seven games to play before the winner could be decided. ..'THIRD EVENT.

The most exciting game of the bonspiel took place in the afternoon between Hall of Sandon and Richardson of Nelson in the Grand Challenge com petition. The game was very keen throughout and in the twelfth end the score was tied, each having 12 points to his credit. This necessitated further playingand excitement was intense. When the end was finished neither side had scored and the,game still had to fought out, making 14'ends in all. In the first half honors were about even, when finally Hall drew one into the circle which was well guarded. Richardson had the last, shot and after much deliberation decided to draw into circle. After taking aim lie let fly, barely missing Hall's stone, but being heavy went clear through to the wall, leaving Hall the victor by 1 point amid a thunder of applause from the spectators. This left the final between the latter and Brown of Reyelstoke. In the Consolation contest, McLachlan of Sandon defeated Smith of Rossland, score 11 to 9. Grimmett of San- Rae of Revelstoke put McLachlan of j don in a hard fought match beat Fraser Sandon out of this contest by securing of Rossland by 1 point after 13 ends 13 points to the hitter's 8.

We understand it is the intention of the meeting of the Associated Boards of Trade to be held at Kaslo this week and longer of necessary, to pass strong resolutions in favor of a protective .tariff on lead and lead products. Although a Conservative, the Editor of this paper has never favored high tariffs as an abstract principle; but ciecumstances alter all cases. Our lead producers are shutout of the American markets by a duty of 2 1-8 cents a pound . on crossing the border. But for that duty they could get 3 1-2 cents a pound for raw lead from the American Trust, thc same as.the American producers are getting. If they had access to that market they could easily operate all tlie mines, pay the government tax and the wages the men want without complaint; but they can't. If they then cannot reach the American market, what reason is there why they should not have control of SEVEN TO ONE Sometimes the weight goes up that way when taking Scott's Emulsion.

If by "scabbing" refusing to join the union is | paper. meant, Rose pleads guilty; but if the imputation is that Rose works for less It is amusing to the public to see the clashing of arms now on between the two Nelson daily papers, over the Crow's Nest coal and the C.

The Miner, it is generally understood, was bought, at the recent sale, to serve the Crow's Nest Coal Co. and Jim Hill's interests, and it has long since been known the Tribune is under the plastic hand of the C.

Why we ask should this be allowed, when our mines are shut up for the want of a market? An advanced tariff will shut out all foreign products, and give our people a chance to supply home demands. With a refinery, which we will soon have, we can at once supply the pig for which our people in B..C., who require it, are now paying 8 cents. With inexpensive additions to the refinery, our paint manufacturers can be supplied at reasonable figures, certainly lower than those quoted by the American producers, .who have to pay 4 cents to the trust for the raw.material. With other inexpensive works again our people should be able to supply piping not only for home consumption, but for export as well. It appears to us that when Canadian manufacturers can buy the raw product at a little more than half what their American competitors have to pay, they should be able to compete with them in any outside market reached by American products. ThisatleastBeemsreasonable to us. It is only 12 years sin';e the 17 1-2 per cent protection given to Canadian agrieulturaliinplementmaim- fuctnrers began to be felt, and today they are able to compete with any and all American competitors in Australia, South America and even England herself. This can be repeated in lead manufactures, if we could only induce the Federal government to give lead men like protection. a liar.

One false step, one' mistake, and the attack comes swift and sudden. The mistake which commonly opens the way for an attack by disease is neglect of the symptoms of stomach trouble. When eating is followed by undue fullness, belchings, sour or bitter risings, etc., disease is attacking the stomach. The best way to frustrate such an attack is to use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, and makes the body strong and healthy. "I was suffering very much with my head and stomach," writes Mrs. W. C. Gill, of.Wetdou, Shelby Co., Ala., "head was so dizzy when I would raise up in bed would fall right back. Could eat but very little, in fact scarcely anything-, there seemed to be a heavy weight in rpy stomach so I could not rest; I had to belch very often and would vomit up nearly everything I ate.

The Nelson Miner throws its hat in the air because the Nelson team beat the Sandon's. at Rossland on Saiurday in a score of 4 to 2, as the referoe has it, and not 5 to 2 as the Miner.puts it.

It may further be noted that all Sandon's best, last year's juniors were not in the contest either. Besides this, man for man, the Nelsons were 30 lbs. the heavier men. The heaviest man, or rather boy, for several of the kids not over 17 years of age, is but 100 lbs., while several of Nelsons were nearly 200 lbs. In the first half the contest was a tie���������I to 1, but weight and durability, and not science won , 3 to 1 for the second half. We believe yet that if all Sandon's best kids were together, they could defeat the giants of Nelson and pull those hats out of the air.

If care be not exercised in the preservation of our timber supplies/timbering will be ere long a matter of serious moment to the mines of thc Slocan. So far most of the mines have been able to meet their requirements from the hills adjacent to the.mines; but this supply is becoming depleted ; and forest fires have played such havoc with the woods in general that suitable timber in the country is becoming scarce. Should present cramping conditions, even of lesser form, continue to harrass operations, and with timber as expensive ��������� as it will be when brought mining operations will night out of the question. The government must adopt more precautionary measures against bush fires, so that the little timber now available may be preserved, and that the soft undergrowth may be preserved, so as to stave off tlie evil clay as long as possible.

When the facts are all known, however, the Nelson paper has not so much to crow about. After saying it was the fastest match ever played in Rossland, the Miner, an independent paper says: The Sandon seven was also identical . with the team that defeated Phoenix on Friday afternoon���������Hogan in goal, J. Crawford at point, \V. Crawford at cover, Howarth on the right wing, Hood at centre, Griorson onleft wing and E. Crawford rover. The city of Sandon is to be congratulated on turning out as fast and clever an aggregation of hockev- ists as the seven men who came to Rossland to represent the red and white in the senior hockey matches. The men played fast hockey and played every minute of the game. Their weak point as compared with Nelson was the point and cover men. Tlie Crawfords are a strong combination, but they were not up to the standard of Nelson's defence men, although Hogan in goal is a more experienced player than Greyerbiehl of Nelson. It was in the defence that 8andon lost. . When Sandon attacked the speed developed by the forward line was splendid and elicited hearty applause, but their defence was not as strong as Nelson's, and it is on this one point that the only apparant., difference in strength between the teams can be located, Sandon had the support of tlie majority of the Rosslanders last night, and it was the gencial opinion that on fast ice the table would have been reversed, that is a point that could only be demonstrated, however, in actual practice. Certain it is that the Nelson men as a whole were heavier than the plucky Sandon seven. The initial face-off was made about 8.20, and after the first minute's play it was evident to the spectators that the game was to be a treat for hockey enthusiasts. The players started in with a vigor and rush that promised great things, and. at no time did they relax their efforts. First blood was secured by Sandon after a neat rush and combination play ending with a hot shot by Howarth which escapad Greyerbiehl. Then Nelson scored twice after keen play, but before the first half ended Sandon added another notch to its tally suck, and the score was tied. The second half opened in the most promising manner. It was evident that the management of the Nelson team and the pl'ayers had canvassed the situation thoroughly, for they went into the game with renewed vigor and a definite plan' of action that had results. Three times did the green and white descend on Sandon's gool and hurl the elusive gypsum past Hogan. After the first goal was secured the Sandon men played with a rush that would have .had the desired result had Nelson been leasable in point and cover. Again and again did Jed's and Archibald, and particularly the latter, turn what seemed to be an invincible rush, and it was in the interim of these determined attacks that Sandon's citadel was successfully assaulted. After Nelson secured its fourth goal it was evident that only circumstances out of the ordinary could avert the ultimate result, but the Sandon men contested the game to the last second, cheered by the warm applause of the audience." , ' FOR OVER FIFTY YEAKS.
