The two Christmas trees\nwere beautifully decorated. About,\n150 presents were distributed to   as\n\/ many children. A number of special\nprizes were also awarded to pupils\nof the school for meritorious work\nduring the past year. Mrs. Robert-\n\u2022son was the recipient of a very\nbeautiful jardiniere stand from the\nLadies' Aid, for which she wishes to\nreturn thanks to that society.\nThe program, which was exceptionally well rendered, opened with\na series of short choruses and dialogues, all of which were well received and liberally applauded.\nThe event of the evening was, of\ncourse, the beautiful and high-class\ncantata, \"Christmas and the Kerchief,\" which was pleasingly rendered by fourteen scholars. That\nit was appreciated by the large audi-\nvence was amply demonstrated by\nthe liberal applause accorded it.\nTaken as a whole, the entertainment was one of the most successful\nand enjoyable ever given by the\nchurch. And a share of the praise\nfor the faultless manner in which the\nprogram was carried out is due to\nMrs. Miller and Miss Henderson,\nwho spent about two months in\ntraining the children.\nLagrondeur,   $28.50;   G.

P. P., was largely\nattended. Mr. Curtis spoke for an\nhour and a half, and held the close\nattention of his audience, who frequently applauded him. He dealt\nwith local matters, and then took up\nthe political questions that had\narisen, showing that he had always\nadhered to the principles for which\nhe had been elected, and that this\nhad led to his parting with his old\nleader, Joseph Martin, who, with\nother Martinites, had gone over to\nDunsmuir and supported hisschemes\nfor his own private advantage and\n\"or the advantage of the C. P. R.\nand of railway grafters. He showed\nhow Martin had voted ag.unst government ownership of the Coast-\nKootenay,and against railways being\ngiven aid by way of loan, and many\nprinciples for which he pretended to\nstand. The speaker showed that\nthis reckless disregard of principle\nand the running of the government\nfor private ends Avere what had\nbrought the legislature into disrepute, and that the cure was for the\nelectors emphatically to condomn at\nevery opportunity the guilty members. He declared that having found\nMartin utterly unprincipled and unreliable, under no possible future\ncircumstances would he trust him\nagain. To turn down\/ such men\nwas the only real cure for the political il lis afflicting the country. Mr.\nCurtis briefly touched on the labor\nlegislation enacted, and finally in\nvited the electors to criticize or otherwise express their views upon his\ncourse at Victoria. Mr. McKinnon,\na merchant of Eholt, who worked\nhard at the general election for the\nMartin platform, spoke flatteringly\nof Mr. Curtis' services, and moved\nthat the meeting heartily approve\nof the political course of the representative of the Rossland riding in\nthe legislative assembly. Mr. J. R,\nBrown; barrister, president of the\nGreenwood Liberal association, seconded the resolution, paying a tribute to Mr. Curtis' straight course\nand sincerity.

The\nboard of directors is composed of\nstrong financiers and gentlemen of\nlarge experience in the insurance\nbusiness. This company nas nothing but up-to-date liberal policies to\nsell, and the fact that many large\npolicies have been issued by the\nImperial, running as high as 8200,-\n000 on one single life, indicates the\nclass of people who are patrons of\nthis company. Mr. J. A. McCallum\nis agent at Columbia and Grand\nForks.\nAt the Snowshoe mine the new\nore bunkers are fast approaching\ncompletion. They are located on\nthe new 1800-foot railway spur.\nIt is expected that active work on\nthe development of the Blue Jay, in\nSkylark camp, about two miles from\nPhoenix, will commence early in\nJanuary.\nThe first payment of $5000 on\nthe bond of the quarter interest in\nthe Emma mine, owned by W. T.\nSmith, will be made by the Nelson\nsmelter people early in January.\nThe bond is said to be for $40,000.\nMackenzie & Mann own the other\nthree-quarters.\nE. H. Thurston has written from\nEngland to say that work will be resumed on the Carmi just as soon as\nthe government will bu,ild the bridges\non the West Fork. This property\nhas been closed down for two years.\nThe owners became disgusted because of the failure of the government to provide the necessary wagon\nroad.\nOwing to delay in the deliyery of\nnew machinery from Spokane, the\nsecond furnace of the Sunset smelter, at Boundary Falls, will probably not be blown in till January 1st.\nThe machinery, including water\njackets, air blast and piping, is now\nbeing installed.\nSupt. A. B. W. Hodges, of the\nGranby smelter, returned this week\nfrom a trip to Montreal, New York,\nSt. Louis and Chicago. He has\nplaced with the Allis-Chambers\ncompany, Chicago, an order for two\n.additional furnaces for the Granby\ncompany. They will be installed\nearly in the spring.\nAfter a week's shut do\u00bbyn for repairs, the idle furnace of the Greenwood smelter was placed in blast\nagain last week, and the usual quota\nof ore is once more being sent down\nfrom the company's mine in Summit camp.\nAn open cut some 50 feet in length\nhas been made for the new No. 3\ntunnel of the Granby mines, below\nthe Old Ironsides ore bunkers, and\nthe air drills are now beginning to\nget under ground. The tunnel will\nconnect with the 100-foot level of\nthe Old Ironsides mine.\nIn all probability the Oro Denoro,\none of the pjominent properties in\nSummit camp, located on the Phoenix branch of the C. P. R., will be\noperated soon after January 1. An\nextraordinary meeting of the King\nMining Company, Ltd., owning the\nmine, was recently held, at which\npropositions to lease, buy or bond\nwere to be considered. IJ is now\nstated that ah option was given to\nbond a minority interest in the company to Smith Curtis and A.
