The most important\nwork was the striking of the several standing committees for the\nyear by mayor _ Fletcher, and when\nthe minutes of last meeting of the\nold council were approved his wor-*\nship announced them as follows: -\nFinance. \u2014 Aldermen Hamilton\n(chairman), Selous and Irving.\nPublic Works.\u2014Aldermen Paterson (chairman), Gillett and Madden.\nFire, Water and Light.\"\u2014Aldermen Irving (chairman), Paterson\nand Gillett. . _\u25a0\n.- The next \"order of business was,\nthe fixing of the date for the council 'meetings.'* Mayor Fletcher*, explained that the council had been\nmeeting on Monday evening- at 8\"\no'clock, but it was for the members\nto select such time for' their meetings as they\" considered 'most^ convenient. The mayor added that\nfor the present the members of the\ncouncil had better meet- once a\nweek until their work was well in\nhand. - The mayor's views met\n(with 'the\" approval \"of, the\" council,-\n.arid'weekly meetings \u00ab'were|decided\n^upon for' Monday evenings' at ,-8\no'clock.

Thompson's-report of the\nfire department was referred to the\nfire, water and light committee.\n\"\"\"\"^The-reporirof-the-waterand-light-j\ninspectors was then read.- The feature of this report was the reference\nof tthe inspectors to the waste and\nleakage in connection with the two\nservices.. - ..- . -\nMayor Fletcher remarked' that\nthe report.seemed to- demonstrate\nthe necessity for a'proper and regular inspection of the systems.\nWith respect to the electric light\nsystem he expressed the opinion\nthat there should be an extra man\nengaged. He said he was confident\nthat the salary of a competent man\ncould be saved by the city over and\nover again. The city at present\nhad practically no check\" upon the\nelectric light connections. The report which hatd been read -was ordered by the retiring council and!\nwould doubtless Ythrow: some light\nupon .the matter wheri-it, came before theproper committee for consideration. He was confident that\nthe leakages, in the \/systems were\nsufficient to demand the earnest\nattention of Y*he \/committee,; arid\nin view of theiri it would be for\/the\ncouncil todecide whether the city\ncouricil could riot well afford to pay\nthe salary of; .a competent\nelectrician. Another matter was\nthe expense of the present practice*\nof giving out the repairs toY the\nelectric light system. Yin the. past\nthe city had pai'dD.a,large amount\nfor repairs, a^ greati deal of which\ncould be saved if the* city had a\nman \/competent to\/do the work.\nThe new man should be a working\nsuperintendent. He added that\nthe fire on Baker street the other\nday was caused by a defective\nelectric light wire. If the system\nwas not closely watched such oc\ncurrences would be frequent, and in\ndealing with the report of the inspectors it would be well for them\nto go thoroughly into the .matter of\nthe economy of securing the services of a competent superintendent of the system.\nTlie report was then referred to\nthe fire, water and light committee.\nThe request of the local charity\norganization that the council refund\nit a deficit of $97 was referred to\nthe finance committee.\nThe council was then addressed\nby a party named Jones, who requested the council to loan him the\nprice of a ticket to England. He\nsaid he had spent $1000 and had\nnot sufficient .to get home. The\nmayor undertook to enquire into\nthe case\/ - * ..- .\"\nThe fire, water and light committee will meet on Saturday morning at 10:30 o'clock, and the public\nworks committee at 5 o'clock on\nThursday afternoon.\nTWO SPRINCER CREEK MINES\n\u2022 - That Are' Fromishu; Properties. .\nThomas Mulvey, who has been a\nresident of Slocan City since the fall\nof 1891, is putting in a few days in\nNelson.

In the case of\nHeddle vs. Stamford, in whicli the\nlatter's shares were to be disposed\nof to satisfy a judgment, the sale\nwas postponed until Thursday\nforenoon at 11 o'clock by reason of\nan objection made by Stamford's-\nsolicitors to the effect that the\nnotice of execution had not been\nserved 6ri Stamford.\nr^ PS*\n' - '\"\u25a0&\n'.TV.\n-r v _\n*Jn-7$9\n*-\u00bbt\nCf.\n1 ',\nGreenwood, January 22ry[Spec-\nial to .The Tribune.] \u2014-~Manag_r\nAndrew Laidlaw-hones to have the\npyritic smelter \"completed-so as to\nbe ready'to start operations some-, >\ntime in March\/ Todays the':cbrre- -\nspondent of The Tribune waa, out \u201e\nat the site.

In the January .number of the r Canadian Magazine, Norman Pat- - terson summarizes the arguments that have been advanced by others in favor of the establishment of a , national mint in Canada. He quotes the following information concerning the Australian mints from Hutchinson's Australian Encyclopedia : \" The formal sanction of her majesty's government for the establishment of a branch of the Royal Mint at Sydney was made in 1853, with colonel Ward as first -deputy master; the Victoria mint was opened June -12tb, 1872, with colonel Ward as deputy master; present masters, Sydney, Robert Hunt, C. M. G.; Melbourne, G. Anderson. The total quantity of gold received for coinage; at the Sydney mint from the opening\/to December 31st, 1899, was 17,113,910 ounces; the product being 59,297,500 sovereigns, 2,420,500 half-sovereigns and bullion valued at \ufffd\ufffd2,733,507; the total revenue of the mint has been \ufffd\ufffd530,174. Ia.48.8g the weight received for coinage was 900,475 ^ ounces, which was coined into 3,262,000. sovereigns,. 32,000' half- sovereigns, the remainder being bullion.' .The total weight of gold coined at Melbourne mint up to December 31st, 1889, was 11,268,118 ounces, and' gold' coin and bullion .were issued valued at .\ufffd\ufffd45,130,274. The, gold coin issued in* Australia at the two mints was valued at \ufffd\ufffd5,- 500,000. iNeither silver-or bronze is coined, at Sydney or >-Melbourne. The original, Australian sovereign and half-sovereign had on the reverse,.instead of the Royal Arms or the George and Dragon, the word 'Australia' and the early .coins contained a large .mixture of -silver. The new sovereigns have the letter S, or M, according to the, mint of origin, immediately below the head of the queen.\" Later reports show that Australia has now. three -mints, one having ^been.established-at-Perth,vWestern Australia, in June, 1899. The cost of the mints for 1899 was as follows: Expend- Appro- ituro priation Melbourne \ufffd\ufffd17,001 \ufffd\ufffd20,000 Sydney \ufffd\ufffd14,488 \ufffd\ufffd15,000 Perth \ufffd\ufffd14,209 \ufffd\ufffd20,000 All the evidence points to the fact that an Australian mint costs $70,000 a year. The original cost of the Sydney mint for building and equipment was about .$150,000. The annual cost.of a mint in Canada, the writer says, would be as great as in Australia, although there would not be more than half as much gold to coin. Investigations have led him to the conclusion that \"a gold coinage cannot be a very bad thing far nation to possess, seeing that all nations of any importance have it. It' would seem almost like proving that railroads and electric lights were necessary. At worst, it can only be a question of how much gold we should coin and under what conditions.\" tive. ; Mr. Rogers replied: \"Oh, we have no dispute. We have nothin g to eomplain of so far as the Crow's Nest \/Pass Coal Company \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd is concerned. It is quite a mistake to suppose that we regard the C. P. It. rates as extortionate or even exhor- bitant.\" The reporter continues: \"Then what does president Ja'ffray and the Toronto Globe mean by this crusade against the C. P. It., in which the Crow's Nest Pass coal rates figure so largely?\" One wonders what warrant the reporter could have for this statement. The Globe, we are very sure, had not been complaining about freight rates for Crow's Nest coal, nor, so far as we know, had Mr. Jaffray made any such complaint. When Mr. Rogers says that the Crow's Nest Coal Company has no quarrel with the railway about freight rates he ought to know what he is talking about, and his statement should be conclusive as to the attitude of the coal company. Changes on the Kaslo & Slocan, Sandon Paystreak, Gus Boeettcher, who has for so many years wielded the punch on the Kaslo & Slocan railway, has decided to quit the employ of that company. Gus has interested himself considerably in mining properties and now has so many propositions on hand that they require his undivided attention. Gus bid farewell to the traveling public yesterday and the command of the K. \ufffd\ufffdfc S. 'limited has been turned oyer to Jesse Pronk, who has officiated as brakeman on the road for the past two years. Frank Thompson has also severed his connection with the Kaslo & Slocan. Frank has handled the, throttle\" on the little engine for a long time, and while his duties did not bring him so frequently in touch ,with the public as was the case with Gus, he has a large circle of friends who will regret his disappearance from the cab window. George Williamson, an old C. P. R. man, will take' Harry's place. PREPARATORY TO STOCK-TAKING COMMENCING 'ft $ Monday, Decern her 31st.

R. shipyards, which are at present situated about one mile west of the eity, will be moved to a point on the lake shore near the rear of Honeyman's foundry. This is, a more suitable location and will be more convenient in every way. The depth of water is better for landing, and the,,neck of land which extends at that point forms somewhat of a harbor. The site selected is so situated that it can be reached by teams, and material can easily be taken in, which is not the case with the present shipyards. A spur from the main line of the Balfour extension to the yards will be *-* constructed and new and , stronger ways will be put in. The new tug, which is being** erected at the local ship yards will be launched inside of three weeks. The principal work on its construction is completed and the few minor details which remain to be done can be completed in a short .time: The tug is tHe strongest \"yet built in i Kootenay. Itis 100 feet long and * will be driven by a large- propellor. The boiler, which has \"just been in-* stalled, is a,400 horse power. During the coming week the boat will be furnished with a good substantial outfit. Iii the forecastle there is a good sized room _ containing' - eight berths.

It is just a question how much pun? ishment will be needed there to make certain bandits there quit. That ig the only point, and the only way to make them quit is to kill -them so fast: that those remaining I yearly product Biitte.Mining World. {It is refreshing to have -a \"close- fisted\" banker admit that.there was more money in the legitimate voca- cation of. mining than there is in the banking business. \"While any one at all conversant with mining readily admits that mining ' is the most profitable,business on earth, yet those engaged in banking have always been the, last ones to admit it. E. T. Rich, a prominent eastern banker, in a recent article on \"Mining vs. Banking,\" published in the National Banker,-has the following to say on the subject: \"There is much money invested in mining as in banking and the Jormer-*-pays^a\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdmuch\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdhandsomer- dividend. The prejudice against mining, like an hereditary taint,' still clings to the ultra-conservative, the timid and the less ambitious. Such notions and ideas on mining though well .intentioned, are based on the theory that some one lost money either in mining proper, or mining stock speculation. Millions are sunk yearly in corn, .wheat or pork speculation, and yet no one condemns such' auomalism except, perhaps, the agriculturalist or the suffering poor. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd',..\" \"The estimated annual .dividends on the' normal capitalization of all mining companies exceeded 10 per cent a year on the actual capital invested. There is yearly as much money invested in mining, as there is in banking, but banking does not prove as safe or as profitable as mining. IriY a time of prosperity the average banking dividends seldom exceed.8 per cent a year. \"The number of dividend paying mining companies is larger than all other combined industries, is fully, sustained by statistics. That mining produces quicker and -\/great'' profits than any. other industrial ..pursuit is evidenced by.the number of multi- \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdmillionaires. That there are risks in; mining as well as other pursuits is; well Yknown to all ^reasonable minds, but that the- immense fortunes of the Mackeys, the Pairs, the Fields, the Sharons, the Baldwins and hundreds of others, are 'due to mining cannot be denied. According to the census there is less than one-hundredth part of our industrial population engaged in mining, producing for one year a mineral output.of $079,596,880. If other industries were as productive of wealth as mining, we would have according to the above ratio, a of Y$07,959.787r600, or twenty-two times as much as the estimated circulation of gold and silver money of the entire world. \"The yearly product of gold, silver, lead and copper alone, if distributed amongst tho miners engaged in the different mining states producing these metals, averages from $1000 to $3000 per man, or 20 times as much as the per capita of products of all other combined in-, dustries.\" TOBACCO'S USES. The London Lancet prints an article on the important part which tobacco has' played among the English soldiers in South Africa, and gives interesting proof that, a moderate use of tobacco has been of very great value in her majesty's campaign against the Boers. In the course of the article, the Lancet says: -* The cases of acute mental derangement in the course of campaigns, such as the present, are very many. There have indeed been many in South Africa. It would be most profitable and' interesting could medical officers have taken special note of the capacity for sleep previously 'evinced by those who broke down, and also their indulgence or non-indulgence in tobacco. .Wc are inclined to believe, used with duo moderation, tobacco is of value, second only to food itself, when long privations and exertions are to be endured. ' There is more of the same. It is a fact that tobacco has become almost a necessity to the great masses, of men -who join an army. ., Their nerves require it.\" Without it, they would become \"nervous,' dissatisfied, irritable and in a great measure indolent. One can hardly imagine an army without.tobacco; it- is a great panacea for ills.

MONEY TO LOAN ON AT 7 PER CENT BUSINESS PROPERTY Full of Experiences. Privates John Sims of Nelson and \"Ben\" Huckell of Victoria, who went to South Africa with the second contingent, and who have been in continual active service ^at the front during the past year, arrived in Nelson last e\\ ening by the Crow's Nest boat. There was-no reception \"tendered them, but many of their friends gathered around them to hear the exciting, funny and sorrowful stories of the events through which they passed during their stay at the front. - Both ^were looking well and feeling in good spirits. -Although Mr. Sims spent several years at Nelson and vicinity before leaving-he- enlisted with--the .Calgary boys about one year ago. During his stay at the front he was- a . member of the mounted,rifle regiment,\" and was \"during the greater portion of-his time' under - direct command, .of general Hutton.. * He did not\" \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd experience one day of sickness during' his time- in ser-* vice arid- was\". on* -duty con;- tinually. He was' in, ^many engagements, and * in * several he said he-was in extremely -close quarters. Excitement \"ran high, and shot ,and shells were flying in every direction..' Throughout all the many engagements-Mr. Sims never, received a scratch. The greatest hardships that he had to endure- was when the contingent 'first arrived in .South Africa. It was then \"they had. to travel- for 500 miles over a desert. Many suffered' with severe sickness, and many valuable horses died and others became worthless and had to be killed. * Y * In speaking.of the closing of the war Mr. Sims said that it would be months before it .would be finally brought to an end. He said that the \"war was practically closed, Jbut the Boers kept up a continual skirmishing warfare which' gave the British considerable trouble. He had many good things to say about lord Kitchener and lord Roberts. Mr. Sims said that Mr. Eaton, another Nelson boy, had stopped in .eastern Canada and had been awarded the position of captain of one \"of the eastern com- not the least doubt but that the game will be a fast one. The ice is in fine shape. The Nelson team will line up as follows: Goal, S. Neelands; point, C. Archibald; - cover point,- C. -Jeffs; forwards, J. A. Wetr more\/ captain, Joe Thompson, A. Perrier and Otto Nase. The boys held a practice game last evening and they did seme clever playing.

Mr. Huckell only stopped in the city a few hours as he was on his way to Victoria. He spent the short time he was here in shaking hands with many friends that he knew. During his services .at the front he was connected with the mounted riflemen and had .much scouting to do. He was under colonel Evans, who went with the company from Winnipeg, as lie enlisted with the boys at Fort MeLeod. Mr. Huckell was sick with the fever while there and was confined for some time to the hospital. After his recovery he was engaged with the company in the pursuit and driving' back of general Dewet. During one of these engagements he was hit with a shell whicli nearly terminated his life. He was in such close quarters that the firing of the big guns affected his hearing and he has nearly lost the use of it entirely. _ Notwithstanding the many hardships he had to endure he was last evening in the best of spirits. Tonight's Hockey Match, The Rossland Hockey team will arrive in \"Nelson at 11:30 this morning and at 8:30 this evening will play the Nelson team at the rink on Stanley street. It is predicted that the game will be the fastest ever played in Nelson. The local team have put in good work at practice and are now in excellent shape. It is said the Rossland boys have had considerable more prac- than the home team, and they are coming down with every determination to win. The Nelson boys are equally as confident, and there is Weigh, Scales Kept Busy. The consumption of .coal in Nelson at the present time is about 30 tons a day...- Tlie amount. of. coal used now* is,-much larger than it was last year at this time. Qw.ing to. the great demand for the article the'dealers have*considerable difficulty in keeping a sufficient supply on hand. During\" the a-last month, in which considerable warm weather prevailed, over 500 tons were consumed. Since .the city scales were established, a^year ago last August, 0525 loads of coal have been weighed there. \" ., Bad Man LockecT Up. John Gammon.of Creston, who has just served six months at the provincial jail on the charge of assaulting a constable, was arrested in Nelson last-evening,\" charged with disorderly conduct'. When he was started for the lockup by chief Jarvis he refused to go.
