The leader of the party when\nthey arrived was R. C W. Lett, colonization agent of the Grand Trunk Pacific:\nG. Home Russell, the well known artist whose pictures of Mount Robson\nand the Skeena river are now on ex-\nhitbition at Brussels; J. W. Swan,\nofficial photographer of the Grand Trunk\nrailway, and Frederick A. A. Talbot,\nspecial correspondent of the World's\nWork of London, dispatched to this\ncountry to investigate the openings for\nBritish financial, industrial and agricultural activity in British North I\nAmerica, also contributing articles of\nCanadian import to several other English\npapers.\nThe party left Toronto on June 17th,\nthen being under the charge of Harry\nR. Charlton, general advertising manager\nof the Grand Trunk Pacific, and of the\nparty at that time, in addition to the\nnames given, was H. D. Lowry, Washington correspondent of the New York\nEvening Post. They left the party at\nTete Jaune Cache and returned to\nMontreal.\nMr. Talbot says the journey has been\nmost uneventful and was enjoyable all\nthe way through. They started out with\nthirty pack animals from Edmonton\non June 23rd, and reached Wolfe Creek,\nwhich is one hundred and twenty-six\nmiles west of Edmonton and the end of\nsteel, on June 27th. They followed the\ntrail of the surveyed line on to Fiddle\ncreek, where they made the first long\nstop. Here Mr. Lett led the party into\nthe wilds to investigate the possibilities\nof the Hot Springs as a popular resort\nfor tourists. He was favorably impressed\nand many fine photgraphs were made and\na number of sketches  and  paintings.\nThe next long stop was at the foot of\nMount Robson, one of the objects of\nthe trip being to get a number of good\nPhotographs of this already famous\nregion. Ten days were profitably spent\nhere, Mr. Lett, with the aid of the pack's, cutting trail through the heavy underbrush into the heart of the mounain\nand resting his party after their toilsome journey on the banks of a charming\nlake called Lake Helena. ;\nThis spot Mr. Talbot declares to be\none of the most beautiful of all he has\nwen in his travels on this continent and\nabroad. Many pictures were made of\nlw sylvan features and the gorgeous\nscenery surrounding it. Photographs\nwere also made during the party's stay\nnere of the immense glacier, the waters\nrom which flow into the north fork of\ntne Fraser river.\nfrom there the pack train mushed\n>\u00abng to Tete Jaune Cache, where an-\n\u00ab\u00bb\u00ab stop was made     \u201e0, ^^ m\nne meantime we had stopped to instigate all along the route every point\noh! !\"? calculated to be of interest,\"\nobserve,!

Born in a little town\nin Pennsylvania, outside of Philadelphia, she graduated from a church\nchoir to the footlights and from, the\nlatter to mistress-ship of one of the\noldest castles in England. Lord Francis Hope met her when she was singing on Broadway and made her his\nwife in 1893, presenting her at the\ntime with the famous Hope diamond,\none of the most precious stones in the\nworld.\nSeven years of prosaic, dignified\nlife of an English lady palled on her\nand she ran away with Major Putman\nBradley Strong, son of a former mayor\nof New York and an officer in the\nregular army. Subsequently, when\nLord Hope secured his divorce from\nthe singer, Strong married her, only\nto desert her when their money was\nall gone.\nHer position ever since has been pathetic. With her voice and her beauty\nimpaired by hardship and dissipation\nmanagers who once considered her an\nacquisition to their forces closed the\ndoor in her face. Pressed for the com-\nmenest necessities of life recently, she\nprocured an engagement in a low music\nhall in Frisco, where she was stricken\nwith  paralysis  last week.\nBaseball Scores Yesterday\nVancouver, Sept. 20.\u2014(Special)\u2014The\ntwo league games played yesterday\nresulted as follows:\nVancouver 6, Tacoma 3.\nSeattle five, Spokane four.\nThe s.s. \"Bannockburn\" quite the\nnewest and most graceful freighter that\nhas yet called at Prince Rupert reached\nthe post yesterday with a cargo of 6400\ntons of steel rails and accessories for the\nG. T. P. construction work.\nThe Bannockburn made the passage\nfrom Sidney, C. B. in the record time of\n64 days in spite of encountering very\nheavy weather on this side the Horn.\nBig seas deluged the steamer fore and aft\nat times, but she ploughed her way\nsteadily through all, weathers. Trinidad and Montevideo were touched at\non the voyage.\nCaptain Dent .of the Bannockburn is\ngeniality and hospitality itself. He is\nfond of his boat which is absolutely the\nlatest thing in ocean freighters the last\nboat launched on the Clyde and equipped\nthroughout with every modern appliance.\nThe Bannockburn is electric lit throughout, and Captain Dent is much interested\nin Prince Rupert's struggles with the\ncity lighting problem.\nThis is the steamer's second trip since\nher launching, and captain and officers\nare alike pleased with her achievements.\nShe steams a steady twelve knots.\n\"Do you know\" said the captain\nsmilingly\"that though we are a cargo\nboat and full loaded, we beat the Princess\nBeatrice coming up to Rupert? We\npassed her between Alert Bay and\nHaddington Island lying anchored\nbecause of the fog. But fog or no, the\nBannockburn went on and came in to\nPrince Rupert in time to berth before\nthe  Princess Beatrice appeared.\n\"I am agreeably surprised\" went on\nCaptain Dent \"at the excellent docking\nfacilities you have at Prince Rupert.\nOf course I have not been over the city\nyet, but so far I am much impressed by\nwhat I have seen. The harbour is wonderful. From a ship captain's point of view\nI should say it would be pretty well\nperfect if the approach to it were commanded by fog horn stations at Holland\nRocks and on the Lawyers. I understand that Sir Wilfrid Laurier has promised that the matter of lighting and\nsignalling in these waters is to be specially\nattended to in view of the opening of\nPrince Rupert as a seaport.\"\n(Special to the Optimist)\nBrieg, Switzerland, Sept. 20.\u2014Although the authorities forbade Aviators Chevaz and Weymann making a\nflight over the Alps today, owing to the\nadverse state of the weather, they are\nto start their flight as soon as the weather\npermits.\nChevaz reached a height of seven\nthousand feet yesterday, and headed for\nthe Simplon Pass before he was forced\nto dsecend because of the heavy gale.\nWeymann's machine was badly damaged.\nWITH STEWART\nSTRINGING   WIRES   FOR   TELEGRAPH COMMUNICATION\nConnects With Government Line at\nKitsurnkalum and Runs up Naas\nValley\u2014Gangs of Men Already\nPutting up the Poles.\nPrince   Rupert   Fog  Bound\nThe foggy weather which delayed the\nPrincess Beatrice is also delaying the\nPrince Rupert.

One gang is now\nworking southwards from the Portland\nCanal District, and another has started\nfrom Prince Rupert. The route which\nwill be followed is along the Kitsurnkalum and the Naas to Alice Arm and\non north to the new mining centre. The\ncentre will pass M. K.

It stands in\nits own grounds, some three hundred and\ntwenty acres in extent, of which about\ntwenty acres have been cleared and are\nunder cultivation.

The blooded Jersey\ncows of Mr. Westinghouse, he says, recently ceased to give milk. An espionage was established, and when the\ncows walked into a pond it was noticed\nthat the pet carp in the pond seized\nthe opportunity to gorge themselves\nw th milk.

S. fishermen to fish on the halibut banks\nof Hecate Straits seems to be still in doubt. The Hague tribunal's decision on the\nfisheries question resulted in a big victory for the British contentions and while\nthe Pacific Coast was not mentioned it is presumed the decision applies on the west\ncoast as well as on the east coast. There were five points at issue in the arbitration.\nGreat Britain wins on points one and five. Point five has been held by Great Britain\nas the most important of those submitted. The fifth point was stated in the form\nof this question:\n, \"From where must be measured the three marine miles of any of the coasts,\nbays, creeks, or harbors referred to in article 1 of the American-British treaty of\n1818?\"\nUnited States fishermen claimed the right to take the measure from any part\nof the British North American shore, and therefore the liberty to fish in the middle\nof any Canadian bay or estuary having a radius of more than three miles. The\nBritish contention was that the limits should be measured from an imaginary line\nconnecting the headlands.   The peace court sustained the British contention.\nIt would seem from this that Hecate Straits and Dixon's entrance are entirely\nBritish waters but as against that contention is another part of the report on the\nfinding which reads:\n\"The disappointing feature of the award is the declination of the tribunal to\nsettle the long-disputed question as to what constitutes a bay. On this point the\nquestion was:\n'From where must be measured three marine miles of any of the coasts, bays,\ncreeks, or harbors referred to in the said article?'\nOn this point the tribunal refused to commit itself. It would not decide what\nwas a bay or when a bay ceases to be a bay, and it, therefore, advised that the task\nof the definition of a bay should be left to the Governments concerned. The effect\nof this is to leave the problem just where it was, and where it has been for generations. The contention of the United States was that the word \"bay\" did not interfere with the privilege of fishing three miles from shore. The British contention\nwas that the term bay should be taken to mean three miles from the headlands of\nthe bay. This was practically the only point upon which the court could not agree, and it is interesting to note that the representative of Argentina, Senor Drago,\nstood out for the Canadian contention.\"\nCondensed Advertisements.\nIf the city engineer could employ the brotherly love that radiates from the\neditorial columns of our four page contemporary, the Second avenue hills would\nirelt away in a night.\nIn case the Empire editor should worry himself into the belief that he has a\nreal grievance because Aid.

C. Emmerson\nNaden Block 2nd Avenue\nRev. W. F. Kerr the new pastor of the\nFirst Presbyterian Church met a number of the young men of the congregation this week in order to get to know\nthem and to make preliminary arrangements for organizing mutual improvement circles in connection with the church\nduring the winter.\n\"In a new city like Prince Rupert\"\nsaid Mr. Kerr \"we need to join forces\nand come together for recreation and\nstudy, and I hope to be able to help the\nyoung men materially in these diver-\ntions. We can go in for many pleasant\nbranches of study together.\n\"I am thinking of several subjects\nsuitable for lectures arid discussions,\nand shall probably give my impressions\nof Scotland and the Holy Land after we\norganize our meetings, while we shall\nalso take up the study of some author\nperhaps.\nRev. Mr. Kerr is enthusiastic over\nhis work and will certainly not spare\nhimself in the task of developing the\nchurch socially, intellectually, and\nspiritually. \"I am glad to be back at\npreaching again\" he said warmly \"it is\nthe best work of all.\"\nA graduate of Knox College Toronto,\nand' winner of a first rate post-graduare\nscholarship which has enabled him to\npursue his studies in the United Free\nChurch College Glasgow, Scotland, and\nin the universities of Germany, Rev.\nMr. Kerr will be able to conduct his\nlectures and meetings with young men\nin splendid manner. A talk with Mr.\nKerr about his travels in Europe is in\nitself most interesting.\n\" I have had the rich experience and\npleasure \" he said recently to the\nOptimist \"of undertaking a journey\nthrough Palestine and the Mediterranean\nports with a party of students led by\nProfessor Charles Foster Kent professor\nof Biblical theology at Yale University.\nI spent Easter Sunday n Jerusalem,\nand this as well as the whole trip was a\nmost interesting and enlightening experience.\n\"Summoned by cable to take up this\ncharge in Prince Rupert, I came out\ndirect from Germany\" Mr. Kerr continued \"I heard much about the city\nall the way out, but I am even more\nimpressed with it than I expected to be.\nThree things strike me specially: I am\nsurprised at the grandeur of the mountain\nsurroundings, the far spread buildings\noccupying the townsite and at the\nexcellent planning of the streets, drainage, water supply etc.\n\"Rev.

I have come here expecting\nto tackle a big problem.

This is positively the\nlast block of this stock that will go on the market at fifteen cents or under.\n1\nP\n1\nThe Company is capitalized at one million dollars ($1,000,000), apportioned in\none million shares, par value $1.00 each, fully paid and non-assessable. There will\nbe absolutely no re-organization or increase of capitalization.\nThe vendors of this property received from the Company 600,000 shares of the\ncapital stock, which stock is pooled and cannot be placed on the market before July\n' No promotion stock has been issued. The proceeds obtained by the sale of\nthis block of treasury stock now offered, in addition to that already sold, will be\nused for development work exclusively.\nThe Directors of the Company are C.

McKinnon is Secretary, and the remainder of\nthe Board of Directors consists of Messrs. R. J. McDonell and James Maitland-\nThe property is under the direct management of Mr. Frank A. Brown, one of\nthe oldest and best known practical mining men of the West. Mr. Brown was for\nseven years manager of the Jumbo Mining and Milling Company of Idaho County,\nIdaho, two years in the field lor the Dominion Exploration Company of New York,\nand three years manager of the Bangor Placer Company in the Yukon district. He\nis one of the heaviest individual shareholders in the Hazelton Nine Mile Company\nand is constantly on the ground in person.\nInvestors may rest assured that the property will be developed to its fullest\nextent and at the least possible expense by a PRACTICAL MINING MAN.\nLocation of Claims Owned by This Company\nThe ground owned by the Nine Mile Mining Company consists of the LEAD\nKING Group of seven full claims, and is right in the centre of the proven mineralized zone on Nine Mile Mountain. Four veins of ore have been uncovered ranging\nfrom one to twelve feet in width. On No. 1 vein a tunnel seventy-five feet long\nhas been driven, besides open cuts and surface stripping. This vein is from three\nto four feet wide and from it ORE HAS BEEN SHIPPED TO THE TRAIL\nSMELTER which gave a NET PROFIT of $33.25 per ton after paying enormous\nfreight rates. No. 2 vein is traceable for 1500 feet and averages two feet in width.\nNo. 3 vein is from one to four feet wide and can be traced for 1200 feet. No. 4\nvein, while of not such a high grade character of ore as the fiist three, shows an\nimmense body of ore of the same general character and is from ten to twelve feet\nwide.\nAbout June 15th the first shipment of ore was made to the Trail Smelter and\nthe returns recently to hand were as follows :\nGross weight of ore lbs.\nLess moisture, 0.6 per cent lbs.\nDry weight lbs.\nSilver, ounces per ton\t\nLead per cent.\nZinc per cent.\nTOTAL VALUES\nSilver, 380 ounces at 0.54 for 95 per cent\t\nLead, 3167 lbs. at 0.01714 for 90 per cent\t\nTotal gross value\t\nLess treatment at $10.50 per ton\t\nLeBS freight\t\nNet value\t\nAdd Government Bounty on 3167 lbs.

On the LEAD KING\nclaim much develoDment has been done and WORK WILL BE CONTINUED\nTHROUGHOUT THE WINTER. Ore will be blocked out from now on until\nbetter transportation facilities are available, which will certainly be within  a year.\nThe Spring of 1911 will witness the biggest mining boom in the Hazelton district that British Columbia has experienced since the development of the Kootenay\nDistrict.\nTHIS, THE FIRST SHIPPER IN THE DISTRICT, WILL UNDOUBTEDLY BE THE FIRST DIVIDEND PAYER.\nTHE LEAD KING IS A MINE TODAY, and we earnestly believe that this\nis an opportunity not to be missed.

Lailey,\narchitect gave a report regarding the\nprogress of the work, stating that the\ncontractors were getting on rapidly,\nand that he saw no reason why the building shouldn't be completed by December\n1st. A report regarding the heating of\nthe building recommending that a hot\nwater low pressure indirect system be\ninstalled at an estimated cost of about\n$3000. This system was recommended\nby the architects Messrs. Munro and\nLailey as the most suitable for hospital\npurposes. On the motion of Aid. Pattullo\nseconded by Magistrate Cares it was\ndecided to call for tenders for this work\nincluding heating and standpipe.\nA statement of the association's\nposition financially was then made by\ntne \"ecretary treaurer A. Cuthbert who\ngave figures showing that the funds in\nhand amounted to $211'. 82 which was\nreally more than swallowed up in expenses on account of balance of foundation work expense. The subscription\nfund was $3000 in arrears. The secretary\ntreasurer had applied to the government\nfor the $7500 promised towards the\nhospital fund and had hoped to hear\nfrom them in time for this meeting, but\nmail was delayed.\nRegarding the question of hospital\nfinances Aid. Pattullo recommended\nthe formation of a finance committee\nto deal with these matters. There was\nsome talk about the collection of subscriptions, the Secy. Treasurer stating\nthat it was not so much the subscribers\nwho had left town as those in the city\nall the time whose subscriptions were\nmost difficult to get.\nE. Clarke thought, however, that most\nof the subscriptions in arrears could very\nsoon be collected if a systematic series\nof calls were made for it. D. Stewart\nsaid that if the Secy. Treasurer called,\nhis subscription would be settled by\ncheque at once, though when the matter\nwas left to his memory it was apt to\nescape him.\nAid. Pattullo mentioned the fact that\nVernor Smith had announced at the\ncity council last night that his firm\nMessrs Foley, Welch and Stewart were\nsubscribing $250 to the hospital funds\nand that Mr. Stewart was subscribing\n$100.\nAid. Pattullo then moved that the\nPresident be authorized to appoint\ncommittees to deal with the various\ndepartments of the hospital organization, financial, building, house etc.\nD. Stewart seconded the motion which\nwas carried.\nThe letters of application for the\nposition of matron were then read by\nthe Secy-treasurer and considered individually by the members of the association. After some discussion on the\nquestion of this appointment Aid.\nPattullo moved, and Mr. Stewart\nseconded the motion that the board\nproceed to ballot upon the applications.\nThe ballot resulted in the appointemetn\nof Miss K. McTavish, Atlin, as matron,\nat a salary of $100 per month. Aid.\nPattullo moved that Miss McTavisih\nbe notified of her appointment at the\nabove taalary, and that the date of her\ntaking up her duties would be announced\nto her later,\t\nThe question of the equipment of the\nhospital was taken up and discussed\nin a general way. On the suggestion of\nMagistrate Carss it was agreed that Miss\nMcTavish should be given plans etc of\nthe hospital, and asked to advise regarding equipment the board to pay her\nfor this service rather than retain her\nservices as matron before the hospital\nwas actually completed, or refer the\nmatter to the medical association.\nA number of letters from various\nfirms offering equipment and appliances\nfor the new hospital were referred\nautomatically to the proper committee\nappointed to deal with them later.\n\"These operating tables, etc., are\nthings we don't know very much about\nand don't want to know more about\"\nsaid Magistrate Cares.\nA letter from P. W. Anderson notifying\nthe withdrawal of the subscriptions of\nmembers of the Builders Exchange from\nthe hospital fund owing to alleged non\ncompliance with certain conditions of\nthe exchange regarding the erection of\nthe building. It was agreed to file the\nletter. \"Frame it\" suggested Magistrate Cares.\nThe question of the insurance of the\nbuilding in its present stage was brought\nup and referred to the building committee\nto be appointed. The proposal to appoint\na ladies' auxiliary was also broached\nby Mr. Stewart, and Aid. Pattullo\nmoved that the President call a meeting\nof the association by advertisements\nin the press, and notices sent to the\nchurches for announcement by the\npastors, which meeting the ladies of the\ncity would be invited to attend with a\nview to the formation of a ladies'\nauxiliary\nWrangell    Narrows    In    Dark\nJuneau, Sept. 17.\u2014On account of ths\nlateness of the season the lighthousee\nalong Wrangell narrows will not be\ninstalled this season.

Most\nof the land in the Nechaco seems to be\ntaken up and much of it already developed.\n\"No, we met with no thrilling adventures and no particular hardships\nof any kind.
