Act in the Boundary, country, and in pursuance with this complaint; Hon. Mr. Fitzpatrick, Minister of Justice, instructed L.V. Eckstein, of Grand Forks to take evidence in regard to the so-called infraction. Last week Mr. Eckstein arranged to hold -sittings at Greenwood, Grand Forks and Phoenix. It was finally found that a, session was unnecessary at Greenwood; but Mr. Eckstein obtained a statement from the sepre|ary of t|}g Mj!l*?F'5 Union there that so far as he knew there had been no such contravention of ihe act in question in the Boundary, that there was no complaint from the laboring men or miners in that district, and that the men arid 'the'.,com- patiies had always gotten along without trouble of any kind. ■: i- •?' ': In pursuance with the published np'ice, Mr. Eckstein wai>. in this city yesterday, for the purpose qf holding the proposed investigation hero, Hardy hall was secured, and the tinSe, set for 10 a. m. Mr. Eckstein, was;, there on time,(and waited iS'loneliness for rraffe a" while;" but not a soiif' turned up to give evidence either for or against in fact, his only visitor was the Pioneer man. As a result, Mr. Eckstein took no.evidence here, the camp in which the largest number of laboring men are employed of any in the entire Uoundary country. He has a hearing set for'Grand Forks for next Monday. The complaint sent to Ottawa sets forth that a largfj number of men were being brought in by tbe mining companies to Grand Ftjrks. Greenwood and Phoenix, who were contracted for in Spokane, and wow the worst- clfiss of men in every respect and i|iust: ui*: desirable, and that they could not be returned, after crossing the Boundary line into Canada, on account of the strict watch kept by tjje United States government, in its immigration department, which !];}§. an officer stationed at qr near Grand Fork§.

This week the lots in the new town- site of Coleman, Alberta, were placed on the market. This is the town where the coal mines of the International Coal and Coke Co. are located, and this is the company in which prominent shareholders of the Granby Co. are interested. As the company has an assured market for all coal it can mine or manufacture into coke, the town is sure to crow to be a place of no sirwill importance in the near future. Next summer the mines there are expepted to piitput 2,000 tons of coal daily, meaning a large payroll for (he place. It is said that the change in the railway time table of tbe C. P. R. will take effect in a few weeks. As planned by Superintendent Williams, the Granby Co. began work this week on Np. 4 tunnel,.in accordance with the comprenhensive arrangement for the further- development of l«o company's, large mines, in this camp. This tunnel will be driven on an incline of about five per cent.,in order to reach the 300 foot level of No. 2 shaft of the company's Old Ironsides mine (not the 200 foot level, as inadvertently stated las,t week).

Preliminary work for the driving of the tunnel has been on all this week but it will be several days before a double shift of miners can-be set at work here. The opening will be just below the Presbyterian church, and the waste will be dumped on the flat in order to build up the grade for the surface tramway,-which .will in time convey the. ore to the. liirge, ore bjfls w^ iu;e to, be built somewhere d-Qwn, ojft Ilc;n*.iuion avenue, on t(ic y., Y-. & li. ■ railway tracks. :'*'.-V-iine uf fvnir- inch pipe was laid this week over the surface from the No. ^tunnel to the-hew workings, to suppfyjur pow'er for tfiedrills and for the hoist.

Next Monday, according to arrangements, the Providence Mining Company will pay a dividend, amounting to two cents per share. This is the second dividend paid so far by this company, the first having been distributed some three months ago. The Providence Mining ^Company, has a capital of $200,006 in $5 shares, of which about three-quarters has been issued. So far $10,000 has been disbursed in dividends. At the annual meeting of the company,'recently held, the reports, qf the officers showed that the mine had made an excellent showing for the year ending September 30, 1903. In that tim? 543.3 tons of ore were mined, and marketed, having a net value of $54,315.24. The cost oj mining, etc., was $23,122.40, leaving a net profit of $31,191.84. The board of directors elected for the coming year was as follows: President, Mark F. Madden, of Chicago; vice-president and manager, Duncan Mcintosh, of Green wood* secretary- treasurer, William M. Law, of Greenwood' other directors, H. J. Fitzgerald and Franklin Rudolph, of Chicago; J. A. Russell and J. J. Caulfield, of Greenwood; J. H. Peet, of Spokane, and W.:S.

It was the close of the financial year, TWO MORE STEAMSHOVELS To Be Installed at Once at the Granby Mines. ONE IS DUE TO ARRIVE ANY DAY Third Machine Will Be Shipped Next Month —Both Larger Than the Shovel Now In Uae. As an immediate result of the successful operation of the Thew steam shovel in the immense ore quarries of the Granby mines for the last few it w^s taken hold af a ym or two since by William Fowler, who showed the fine ore that it really contains, and later it was taken over and purchased: outright by the gentlemen composing the present egmpany that owns and is successfully operating the claim. The story of the Providence is an interesting one, showing as it does that while the low grade mines are the chief features of the Boundary, there are high grade mines that a.re_ WQUnd 10 make their mark in the mhvng war-Id, A go9,d deal of credit is due to the manager, Duncan Mcintosh, who has had . experience in mining, and has been successful in evolving this property into the best one of its kind \t\ the Boundary. The. Q«tlftoHof the Providence is, sa.i.d \0 be evon brighter than before, and that is saying a good deal. It is the first dividend payer in the Boundary, and has been the means of encouraging the owners of other high grade prospects to develop their claims, so.me o,( which are exceedingly promising. Manage--- Mcintosh in his report to the o«miHu*y at the annual meeting held October i si, says that the cost ol mining seems high, yot it is not, when it is remembered that the ore bodies are small, averaging six inches wide. The formation being hard and block)* makes it necessary to take out about three feet of waste ground. Me estimates that on a most conservative basis there are 750 tons of ore in sight, averaging $100. He has advised that a dividend or so be passed in order to accumulate a larger surplus. A trial of either electric or air drills is recommended, not because work with power will be cheaper than by hand, but because of the greater speed that can be made. Reports from the mine tell of the discovery of. a pa.ra.llel lead in the Providence 13 inc-he1" wide, with eight inches of solid high grade ore. The strike was made at a depth of 175 feet, Forced Properly Sale. I have orders to sell desirable im-. proved business property on Copper; slreet, Greenwood, within 30 days.

There are rumors around town of construction to commence shortly on the V., V. & E. branch of the Great Northern from Grand Forks to Phoenix. As yet, however, there has been nothing to confirm them. "A Millionaire Tramp" was in town last Thursday, and held forth at Miner's Union hall that evening. The show is said to have been up to the average that comes through the Boundary, and had a good house. The Grand Forks Bar association has forwarded resolutions to Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the Minister of Justice asking that a new supreme court judge be appointed, to reside permanently in the Kootenay. Tho next court of revision will be held in Grand Forks on Mon day, November 2nd. The provincial list will be used in the next Dominion election. No collector of votes will have power to add names on the list after the coming court of revision, until the next one, which will be held on the first Monday in May, 1904. months, two morei shovels' will shortly be placed in commission at these properties^ and both of them will ...be- larger and heavier than the shovel now in daily use. , One of the new machines has been ordered from the makers of the one in use, the Automatic Shovel Co., of Lorain, Ohio, and is expected to arrive here some time next month. The present shovel handles with its dipper three-quarters of a cubic yard of ore or material at once, and the new machine will handle about a yard in the same time. The new. shovel will have a capacity of handling in the neighborhood of 1,500 tons'of; ore daily. Any day now the other steam shovel is expected to arrive here and be set at work. It is a Marion shovel, and is being secured from the C. P. R. as an experiment, to'see if it can be- made to do the work required of it in a mining way. The railway company- has been using it at the gravel pits at Castlegar. This shovel'will be placed in the No. 2 ore pit, and rails are now being laid at that point for its accommodation. '■" ■-';■- ""■■■'_ It is the intention of Superintendent Williams.to use a steam shovel for handling ore underground in the large stopes of the Granby mines as soon as he can get it arranged, and can secure • a machine exactly suitable for the purpose. Last Thursday Capt. R. Thew, vice- president of the Automatic Shovel Co., accompanied by his consulting engineer, was in camp, looking over . the situation. He had just come from Seattle where two of his company's «team shovels were recently installed by the Great Northern railway, for use in the two mile tunnel under that city, which is now being driven. Talk Of Building Up The North Fork. It is said that the Kettle Valley Lines—locally known as the Hot Air— is seriously considering'building up the North Fork of the Kettle river, some 50 miles, providing a subsidy for so doing can be obtained from the provincial government, supplementing that from the Dominion government. The subsidy from the Dominion government is as follows: $3,200 per mile when thecost of construction is up to $15,000 per mile, and 50 per cent of the surplus cost, provided that the total subsidy sliall not exceed $6,400 per mile. The country tapped will undoubtedly yield a profitable tonnage to the road when it is constructed. Latest Prices in Metals. Nkw Yoiti*.—CnpiH'r, e!edn>!vlic Mul liike1*13.U»(Ml3.:i5.

The crash came, however, and now an English firm controls the vast enterprises, lt is to be hoped that they will have better fortune than Mr. Clergue had. A good deal was made of the $15 per ton lead bonus granted bv the Dominion government, but we cannot sec that it has been of any tremendous benefit so far to the lead miners.

The editor of the Record this week cut 15 cords of wood and brought it to town, overhauled hischicken house, stacked about five,tons of wheat straw, harvested |>art of his potato, onion, turnip, bean, pea, cabbage; "beet and cauliflower crop, says the, Republic Record. , He also swept the printing palace, wrote local and editorial, news, distributed and set type, struck off.a good pay; streak of job work, licked, a delinquent.subscriber, run the. paper off, and was insulted;. Couldn't Recover the Claims. Chief Justice Hunter-of the British Columbia supreme court, sitting at Rossland, has decided that a special license does not revive title to mineral lands which had'beeu allowed to lapse and had been re located by a second party. The Woodbury 'Mines, a cor poration, lost ->ome mineral claims on H oodbur) creek b) failing to renew its free miners' license. One' Po)nt/e jumped the ground. The Woodbur) Mines after several months took out a special license, |\hich it claimed re vived its title as against Povnt/e. Accordingly it tried to adverse his claim, hut was defeated.
