Metallic iron in a more or less  pure condition is met with in all  parts of the world, but the  supply of metal in a pure state  is wholly inconsiderable, and tlie  discovoryof large beds of heina-  i,ite iron in Ihe Fori1, Steele district is of such importance that  investors and promoters are' already looking towards this district with a view of ascertaining  the extent of the recent discoveries. During 1 ho\" past month  largo beds of hematite' iron ore  have beon< discovered and lo-  cated on Bull river. The records  at the Government office show  that IH claims have been recoi*d-  ti  ed. The' locators have been  prospecting the claims and have  shown up,a large strong vein of  at least f)0 feet in width,\" having  a depth, aS'far-asdmown of over  1000 feet.' Three other, veins  nearly as large as the big vein  have also been\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd'prospecled.' It  is said that the ore 'is of a  superior character, an analysis  shows that tho ore contains 55 to  ,  i \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ,  00% iron, 2% manganese, phosphorus a trace,. sulphur trace,  and about \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdJ(i% carbon.      '    -'-  The 'fact, ' as - the analysis  shows, that, the jron ore contains but a small amount of  phosphorus and sulphur, other  foreign substances in very, small  quantities, indicates that tho oro  J <. i- i-  is of a superior quality.  . Largo bodies of iron have been  discovered at or near Kitchener  in 'the south-western portion of  the district. Some twenty claims  have been located. The claims  are, nqw being prospected by  means of a diamond drill, and it  is roporled that there is a vast  amount of jibsuporior ore located*  by tho drill.  Iron in large quantities arc  known ' to exist on Wild Horse  creek, an assay from a property  now located went as high as 00%  iron.  The discovery of these large  beds of'iron is one of special importance to the district. With'  coal .and coke, lime i'or fluxing,  and the close proximity of water  power, transportation facilities  assured by the north and south  railway, in the near future, there  is no doubt but that the production of iron will be one of the  mosi important industries in,  South East Kootenay.

She has been confined to her house since  November  last and a, little later to her  bed  by  a  slow  but steadily advancing senile  paralysis   under  which she gradually  sank   from  day to  day,   faithfully  attended  at    first    by   her   friend   Mi&s  Dunck.   and   latterly by  Nurse  Unth   at, fhe   Diamond  Jubilee  Hospital,   and  by   her  own son  who  has  been  with her for the  last four months.

Judge Form has issued a temporary injunction rest raining the  Crow's Nest .Southern' Kailway  Company from entering in upon  or passing through lands owned  by the B. C. Southern Railway,  or in any way interfering with  the ' lights of the latter  company's right of way' up  Morrisey creek.  .The injunction was served  upon Manager Wilson, as agent  for tlie Crow's Nest Company on  Tuesday last, and on Wednesday, upon the chief engineer of  the surveying parties .engaged  in running the line up \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Morrisey.  creek.\"  The final disposition'' of this  injunction, which will be heard at  Vancouver on July 17th. will be  watched with great interesf'by  the people of Soutli East Kootenay. A motion will be made at  this hearing on .the part of the  B. C. Southern to have the injunction continued.  At the1 last ^session of the  Provincial Legislature \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ' the  Crow's Nest Southern Railway  Company ; secured a charter to  build 'a 'railway from the inter-'  national boundary, via the  Kootenay and Elk rivers to ' the  coal areas at Michel,0- Coal and  Morrisey creeks, this' line' to  connect at the boundary, with8 a  line from Jennings, Montana,^ on  the Great Northern Railway to  the boundary at, Tobacco Plains.  An application was also made  to the Dominion Parliament at  its last session for a charter  covering the same routes as that  applied for in the Provincial  House. After passing through  the preliminary stage, and before its third reading .in the  House of Commons, the promoters withdrew the application  by the consent of the House, on  account of certain stringent conditions which were to be attached and which were unfavorable  to the Crow's Nest Company.  The Crow's Nest Company  having completed its arrangements for a line to the south decided to build under its Provincial charter. Surveys were  made and plans filed at Victoria  on June 19th for a spur up  Morrisey' creek. At this time  the C. P. R. also had an outfit in  the field surveying a line up  Morrisey creek, and in the race  for completion of surveys and  filing of plans it was thought  that the C.P.R. came out behind  but according to affidavits filed,  it appears that tho latter company, filed their plans with the  Minister of Railways at Ottawa  on June (5th. nearly two weeks  ahead of the Crow's Nest Company, and the C.P.R. again filed  plans at, Nelson on the 24th of  June. Both companies commenced grading, the Crow's Nest  Company on the norfh side of  Morrisey creek, the C.P.R. on  the south side, the former company working on higher ground  interfered with the workings of  the latter company, who immediately issued its formal declaration of war, in filing an application, and securing an injunction, enjoining the. Crow's Nest  Company from passing through  or .entering upon lands owned by  a     company    crossing    into,,  a  foreign    country, \"or   adjoining'  province , must secure  the con-\"'  sent of  the   Dominion  Govern- \"  menr. it is said that a Provincial  charter      carries       no       such  privileges, that roads have been,  constructed   under  a Provincial  charter   and     crossed     info'   a  foreign  country is a fact, but in  those cases   no objections'were  recorded,   but   in' this  fight between'the C. P.P. and the Crow's  Nest Southern, \"which will be a  competitor of the C.-P. R.,\" the  C.P.

And ,the output of,  nearly $3,000,000 for   the  past  year, 1900, as against $523,606 in  \"1899,  speak, eloquently   of   the  growth of mining in this district  The production in placer gold  *'; also shows a remarkable increase  -.and it is estimated that -the  , present year .will show a still  , further increase. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  >      i:   -   ' *    *'    *       \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd,  The most notable feature of  the year has been the production j  ' of silver-lead in this district,  from 881,167 pounds in 1899, lb  38,495,079 in 1900, 'has earned  for the Fort Steele district the  right to be considered tho silver-  lead producing center' of ihe  Province.  Copper mines in this district-  are yet in their infancy, that  copper is found in paying quantities cannot be denied, yet for  lack of sufficient means of transportation, this production has  not   yet   reached   a   producing  stage. , .  * * * it-  Iron ore has been discovered  in large beds,in this district, and  of a superior quality. Prospecting and the development of this  portion of the , mineral industry  has commenced, and we can  confidently expect that in the  near future it will be one of ,the  most important industries in the  district.

A force of some nine or ten  prospectors are \"engaged in  placer-mining on Perry creek.  n i  Messrs., Banks and Theis, on  Monday left for Fort Steele.  The hotel at Old Town, \"under  the management of Oliver Berge  is now open. '       <   '  Messrs. Leigh \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd and Ehvell  were at. Perry creek last-week  exporting placer ground.  IT  WAS   NOT   A   CAT.  Two mining  experts  were at  Perry creek'  last   week,  'they  were  dressed    in   short   pants,  golf stockings,   etc.    -They  examined a property,1 and returned  to the hotel at  Old Town  tired  and .hungry.     After enjoying a  dinner of venison,' fresh  trout  and   mountain grouse,   they sat  on the verandah of the hotel enjoying a cigarette,   when  they  observed,  what they   supposed,  was a beautiful black and white  cat.    Pussy! Pussy!! come here  exclaimed one, but pussy did uot  come, here pussy said the other  advancing towards the cat, but  pussy was shy and-retreated the  expert   advanced,   just   then   a  blue streak  struck the   expert  covering him  from his head to  golf   stockings,    the    cat   disappeared in the adjoining brush  the experts  who  had  both  received a reasonable share of the  \"blue  streak\"  exclaimed   ''For  God's sake!  what  was it?\" and  started to enter the hotel. , Keep  out,  change your clothes, sang  out mine host Berge,  what will  it assay inquired Gus Theis,   it's  not  Florida  water,   go   take   a  bath roared Jack  Thompson, go  bury  yourselves   for   ten   days  said  Banks.

Public   School   exam  ill  ations were held on Friday of  last week, and were attended by  a goodly number of citizens. The  visitors to the morning session  beheld a large array of bright  and happy faces, and listened  with rapt attention to the exercises of the members of tlie  junior department. Miss Bailey  has gathered in, all tho wee tots  of the town, and has conducted  in a, manner worthy of 'much  commendation a kindergarten  during the afternoon sessions of  the past term. A politeness  class was a pleasing feature of  the examination. , Those new  ideas are fraught with promise  of great good to the children  und to the community, and give  evidence of the proficiency of  the teacher.  The senior division, in the  afternoon, likewise gave \ufffd\ufffdood  indications of faithful work on  the part of Mr. Tompkins. The  school was not present in full  attendance, owing to several  pupils having dropped out during the past- few weeks. This  section' oii the school suffers  much from irregular attendance  and lack of punctuality on the  part of some of, the children.'  Parents owe it'to their children  to- require of them every day a  punctual attendance ol school. '  Mr.     Tompkins      had      the  pleasure of presenting   to' Miss  May Jennings  the   diploma,   of  graduation and of admission   to  the High School.    Osbthe whole  we   have    good   reason   to   be  pleased  with  the status  of our  Academy,' as well  as  with the  proficiency of  our pedagogues.  Tho   following*   diplomas \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdworo  awarded.    In the senior  department,   Miss   Janet   Mather for  proficiency. Master Waller Taenhauser     i'or,     regularity      and  punctuality,   and\"'Miss   Minnie  Mott     for.    deportment    \"were  honored, by receiving the coveted  distinction roils.     Master Percy  Henry   was   declared   equal   in  merit   to    Master   , Walter     in  punctuality,.1 but'since   he   had  scored and  received a diploma  last year,, he was awarded' by the  teacher a  new   game 'as a mark  of  commendation.     Among rhe  juniors, the'fortunate, recipients  were Miss Hazel Mather for deportment,   Miss  Minnie   Glover  for  regularity   and punctuality  and Miss Lizzie Walsh  for general proficiency.
