' ' Visit ofthe Supt. of Education. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Alexander Robinson, - the Superintendent of Education, who is making a tour of inspection through the province, spent Wednesday in town. He visited the public school and was greatly pleased with the\" ninnner in which aftairs are being conducted by Principle Sullivan and his staff.

C way Centre. During lhe last 12 months Nelson has advanced rapidly as a ruil.vay centre. This has been the lesult of lhe program inauguiiited by the Canadian Pacific railroad for the purpose of developing its facilities to t.he point of efficiency warranted by the gtowlh of the country of which Nelson is the commercial centre. The work . was inaugurated last summer, when the Canadian Pacific railroad commenced work on its yard and station buildings, The old yaid wns torn up and a new system of tracks aggregating three miles of sidings was constructed. The passenger depot and freight sheds were replaced by modern huilditigs of more than double the former capacity, the now passenger station being modeled on the lines of the Union depot at Spokane. Then the section of the Nelson & Port Sheppard track fr om Nelson to Five i\\Iile Point was purchased, running rights being conceded the former owners,'together with the (use of the Canadian Pacific station- buildings. An appropriation of $50,0CO was expended in improving the alignment of this section and it was added to the Balfour extension, built last summer and fall by John W. Stewart of Spokane at a. cost of $500,000. Another appropriation of $C0,000.was spent in improving the line between Nelion and Robson. 'and a further large sum if, to be disbursed at once in moie improvements to the;Nelson Robson section.' This road was built some ten years_ago_ and the original plans call for a first class road. Work is in full swing on a half -'million dollar bridge across the Columbia river at Sproat's landing, 28 miles west of NelsoD. When this is completed through trains will run from Nelson to Rossland via the Rossland,h.ianch and to Midway via the Columbia & Western. The facilities for handing cars between Nelson and Kootenay landing, a 40 mile water haul, are secured by the construction of the tug Valhalla, a high power craft costing $20,000 and a new 15 car barge costing $12,000. When the through service is inaugurated the crews of 21 locomotives, and the train crews for the entire division will be \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdlocated,,-here,.'and., a machine, shop cirpahl6'?5fvh\"iiidli\"ng-i\"vli'repairs to*vthe power and rolling stock will be erected, making the; division independent ff the Pacific\" division- repair shops at Revelstoke: '\" A USEFUL RELIC. Now that the old Washington hand press which has drynursed the Revelstoke Herald through the first-four years of its existence has been relegated to ii corner of the office for the eoodness knows how oftentli time in its checkered career, a -word or two on the history of this still vigorous relic of the past may not be out of place, as the old \"man-killer\" possesses quite a history of its own and has assisted in the incipient struggles of more than one notable point in the great Canadian West. As far as its .history is known it was in Winnipeg at the time, of the Red River rebellion, over thirty years ago and with its aid was published the rehel organ known as the New Nation', which was edited of all persons in thc world- by an' old Crimean officer named Spence, who died;not long ago. while holding down a governmehfjob in-Edmoiilon.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdDuring one phase of thef troubles the office of the' New Nation was raided and sacked by a- party of loyalists headed by Dr. Schultz afterwards Sir The St. Elmo is Looking Well as a Result ofthe Winter's Work.

The London Mining Journal, iu an article headed '\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdQuacks in Mining.\" gives the following as an example, of how some Boards of Directors conduct their biisines*--. As to t he effect of such \"management\" upon the mines we in the. Slocan do not have \"to he toH. lt is too obvious to require telling. \"Some of ns have doubtless heen present at, these'entertainments,\" says the Joiirnul, speaking of hi'aid meetings, '\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwhen a series of well dressed gentlemen rush in one after another, exchange commonplace's, light their cigarettes and proceed to .business. \"Nothingnew, Mr. Secretary? Well, the manager's report,\"'I vote that's taken as lead, pass on to.the next. A series of letters, I say, yoii'll look, after themt'there's a good fellow ; important yon say. never mind( they'll wait. I must-catch the 12 50.

We are quoting now,from actual experience, which,teaches us that it is] a rare thing to find a. board take an' ajtive .andMntelligent interest in the' business of a'mining, eompanv. In short they are quacks.-.Nor is-this surprising.when one remembers that the half d5>zen directors are probably men absorbed in their own respective occupations, and that the technicalities of mines, mining reports and plans are as so much Greek to. them.' The fault lies in their pretending to know and to he able to direct wheu-thcy are utterly ignorant and incapable.\" AUTOMATIC COUPLINGS. The New Device Tried as an Experiment in England. From London Leader. Tbe latest automatic coupling device \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffddesigned to save the lives of the railway men\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdis the product of a Scotsman, Mr. John Darling. Mr. Darling has been at it, for 20 years, and as far back us 15 years ago won a prize of \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd100 with an automatic coupling which was judged the best in the competition open to the whole of the world. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Yesterday he explained his latest achievement in the line to a gatheiing of experts, which included Lord Kelvin, at the Ij. and N. XV. railway goods yard. Worship street.' The contrivance is simple enough, the coupling taking place on the slightest contact. When the two carriages to he coupled are brought together the front shackle or Jink passes in between two bell-mouth jaws connected by the drawbar on the opposite vehicle. The shackle pushes down a tumbler or lifter, and this operation releases a pin which, by means of a spring, passes through the shackle and the paws, and automatically couples the vehicles. The operation of uncoupling is performed from either side of the vehicles, and without going between the wagons, hy simply pulling a handle connected to the crossbar, upon which the pin is withdrawn from its hold in the opening, aud the shackle falls from between the jaws. _ - All sorts of advantrges are'. claimed for the contrivance. It is said' to be as efficient when the vehicles. come .together with force as when only slight contact is made; while with its help it is,even contended\"that a.-runaway vehicle could be picked up. Lord-\"Kelvin seemed-well -pleased with the practical experiment yesterday, butrailwaymen were not at all enthusiastic.1 The latter admitted that the contrivance would, add to the rapidity und safety of the coupling, but several of them thought that in theeffoit to work the lever (for the uncoupling) the railwayman -would stand a good chance ot'gettingbetween tbe buffer*-;, and others! again, thought that the apparatus was still too \"complicated. VISIT OF THOS. TAYLOR, M.P.P. The Member for Revelstoke Consulting His Constituents. Mr. Thomas Taylor, M. P. P., came in I'riuii Victoria on yesterday morning's train with the intention of consulting his constituents a.s to thu needs of the district during recess. Mr. Taylor has done good work among Ihe head*-, of departments since the session opened and when the estimates are brought down it will be found that the requirements of the district hiwe received the most careful consideration in every particular. With regard to the matter of a now school building, which since the passing of the .'imeiidiiients to the' School Act has become of such importance, Mr. Taylor quite recognizes the strength of \"our case and has already pointed out the mutter to Hon.

In the Philadelphia Post of recent date, W. J. Chalmers has an article on the salting of mines. Nearly all of the methods touched by Mr, Chalmers are hoary with age aud hardly applicable to mining operations of thc present date. One would juilge from Mr. Chalmers' experiences that there was only one class of people in the world thit were adepts at mine stilting and those people the original owners, the discoverer or the prospector. The actual salting of mines by the old well known methods has actually gone out of date and is altogether gone out of practice today, but trie more progressive and tip to date \"method of salting a mine, is not lo salt the mine at all, but to salt the engineer's report, hy greasing his lingers. Several years ago General Alger thought he had lieen swindled by some method of salting and went so far as to have the parties arrested ; but even -\" if the mine was salted at the time, it has since proven to be a very rich property. So we ask, when can a' -1 mine truthfully be considered as salted? ' The manner in which a great many people invest in mining is sufficient to open the way for most any old kind of smooth promoter, to get along very nicely without resorting to any of the old methods of salting.- - Usually a friend of those interested in the purchase of a mining property is selected to go out and examine the mining property'simply because they know , him to be honest, not that he knows anything about the business, petting into_the property, he is easily led'to the richest portions of the. veins and f rom one.tQ another, and not being < J'-vJV posted -as 'to* the business^*is^easfly**\"'*-'\" convinced that it is a most .wonderful. .iv mine^ ' \" ' ' \"' Furthermore,'it is vpry natural for the.man who is on the ground' to become enthusiastic ; in fact, the most natural thing in the world and the less he knows about the business the more enthusiastic he becomes. , Th'e way some syndicates manage their properties even after *\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd getting hold of a good one, is sufficient to dis- , courage mining' investments. It-is only a few years ago that a foreign syndicate were separated from. over $1500,000 in this state. Nearly all of this immense sum was supposed to, have been expended in development. Several experts! were sent out fiom, London, including one of the owners who, by the way, 'only got as far as Denver, and was so well pleased with western hospitality that he returned home without even seeing bis own property. All of these men reported favorably, but the long delay in getting results caused thc owners to hare the property examined by an engineer who had no interest in tbe] company. His report showed that only $30,000 * _had_beerL\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdxpended in actual improvement and development of the property, lt would seem lhat the greater part of the $1,500,000 had been salted instead of the mine. The fact is that the opportunities for salting a report and diverting the capital\" from development into the pockets of disreputable person are far greater and far more lucrative thnn attempting the actual salting uf a mine.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdWestern Mining Wotld. 1'..-\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd'V . ;**\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd,-\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd >\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd*; ,,' \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd *.\">' $1.50 STERLING SILVER MOUNTING on Handles of Horn and Rare Wood.

On\nthe tidal flats of tbo sound arc\nthousands ot petrified clams ot all\nsizes, from little fellows as big a\nfour-bit piece to thoso as largo as a\ndesert plate. It is well known that\nempty clam shells in certain waters\n-will in time, owing to the action of\nshifting sand, accumulate a coating\nof soft sandstone and finally disappear\nwithin tho enveloping folds, but it\nis another thing to find petrified clams\nwhich make tho find at Virago sound\nall tho moro wonderful.\nIn 09 cases out of 100 tho stone\nclams found at that place have projecting from what was \" once tho\nshell, a neck, varying in size of\ncourse, according to the dimensions\nof the clam, when tho grip of stone\nfirst commenced to make itself felt.\nIt is tho presence ot this neck which\nremoves all doubt concerning the\ngenuineness ot tho transformed clams\nSo far as known, Captain Gett, ot\nthe steamer New England, is thc\nfirst to discover the presence of the\ninedible clams at Virago sound. He\nfirst ran across them when tlio vessel\nwas north on one hf her recent fishing expeditions and gathered up a dozen or so of them and brought them\ndown. His collection is a good one,\nembracing nearly all sizes, and can\nbe seen hy anyone when the New\nEngland is in port.\nThe clams aro not the only curios\nthe captain can claini to havo discovered on Virago sound; he has\nalso a largo section of the trunk of\na petrified tree, which is in the very\nhest state of preservation, the grain\nof the wood and tho rough edges\nwhere it was broken in tho long\nago, being plainly visible. Running\ndiagonally across the piece in tho\npossession of Captain Gott is a huge\nknot and tbo bark, now turned to\nstone, has thc appearance of cottonwood.\nThe captain states that on 'the\nshores of the sound there is indisputable evidence that a large portion of\nthe tidal flats were covered to a\ndepth of 10 or 12 feet by a land slide\nof great area in days gone by.

At that time he was able\nto walk, and the physicians of the\nhospital expected that ho* would\nspeedily recover.\nBut Davis did not improve. On\nOctober 23 he became paralysed, unable even to move his head, and as\nhe was in need of help, Rev.

During the operation Mr.' Davis was informed an\nabnormal growth about the injured\nbone was removed, antl then the\nrkull was put back In its iilace.\nThc physicians 'at th\" time ex-\npresed the belief that their patient\ncould not live more than two days, as\nlie did not stem to have strength\nnnough to recover from the shock of\nthe operation. To their surprise,\nhowever, he became stronger, and\nnow can nod his head and is able to\nmovo his arms somewhat.

He was one of a number\nof wealthy Englishmon who answered\nan advertisement \" which Roger Pocock had inserted \" in the English\npapers offering to guide a party to the\nKlondike in the early days of 189S\nPocock asserted that he knew the\ncountry well and that he had seen\nservice in tho Mounted Police, so\nho was- well able to guide a party\nthrough any wilds. So the- party\nstarted from Ashcroft to - tako the\noverland route.\nOf their method, or lack of method, in getting\"\"along a great deal he-\ncame known in after months, but\nwlthout^'going-into-detadis-^it-may-be\nsaid '-that a party more utterly ig\njiorant in woodcraft or more hope\nlessly at a. loss on n difficult trail\nnever left the confines of civilization.\nRumors began to'come back about\ntheir mishaps and finally late in 1898\nthe whisper that Sir Arthur Curtis\nhad strayed away to certain death,\nwas confirmed by Roger Pocock himself, who came out-lo the coast with\nthe news that the party had broken\nup and that Sir Arthur's death was\nbeyond question. Pocockrs story,\nwhich was published exclusively In\nthe Province at the time, created 'a\nBensatlon\ufffd\ufffd\ufffda- sensation which was intensified a few weeks later when\nothers ot tho party came out and\naccused Pocock of having deserted\nthem. They also stated in no uncertain terms thatJPocok had been no\nuse as a guide, that he had Unu* and\nagain led them astray, that lie had\nbeen responsible for most of their\ntroubles, and that it was through his\ngibes that Curtis had left camp never\nto return.\nIt was then discovered that Pocook\nhad served in the Mounted Police, but\nonly for a few months and then on\nthe plains. He had little more knowledge of woodcraft than had the avor-\n Englishman frosli from the\nclassic, pave of Piccadilly or the\nStrand. A well known Canadian engineer, who iiad passed the party\non tho way up, stated to the Province shortly afterwards, that they\ncould have been trusted to lose themselves anywhere, for he never saw\nsuch a hopeless lot of ;nen on a trail\nanywhere.\nAnd so now it is said that Pocock.\nfeeling sorry for Lady Curtis and\nher young son, is going hack to look\nfor Sir Arthnpr's hones.

Ownership From the People's Point of View Tho following interesting interview with Premier Seddon of New Zealand appears in the correspondence of Frank G. Carpenter to tho St. Louis Republic: The conversation was turned to somo of the new movements in New Zealand, and I asked the premier about the government control of the railways. Said I: \"Your excellency you have been a railroad man from the ground up. You have worked iu tho shop, \"iou run an engine, and bad to do with all sorts of railroad construction.! You are now the chief manager of a government which haa buillt Its own railroads,. and to which tho railroads belong.' Do'you think it best for the government to own the railroads?\" \"Yes. I do,\" said tho New Zealand premier. \"It is the only way in which tho railroads should be owned and operated. We bellevo fhe roads are for the people, and we are managing thorn in the interectn of tho poople, and for the development of the country in that wav which will best help all the peoplo. We are not trying to make a profit out of them and as our revenues Increase we steadily reduce freight rates and passenger fares. We are already giving an excursion rate of a penny a mile to parties, and wo exnect to cut down the fares right along. We give a reduced rate to workmen going to and from work. We uso the trains to bring out tho school children to and from school free of charge and we have excursion trains to take the children now and then over the country and glvs them practical geographical lessons. We send out Euch trains wtiich give excursions of 100 mile3 for 3G cents per ehlld. This is just the extra cost.of running such trains, and any suhool child can be taken off on a vacation or on .an instructive excursion at that rate at the request of thp teacher. \"It is my idea\/*; Prendre Seddon continuo-i \"that .the railroads are the servants of the people and they should be run entirely tn their Interests.'

A Paris despatch claims that a famous old French chiromancer or palm reader, who is credited wilh having foretold the fall of Kl1.-1.1t 011111, the assasination ot President Carnot, the sudden death of President Faure and the exact hour of Queen' Victoria's demise, was recently summoned to- Berlin and consulted by Kaiser Wil- helm. She foretold the disruption of the German Empire, precipitated by the discontent of the minor German sovereigns at the preponderance of Prussia.'- which country itself, she prophesied, will 011 -the first pretext rise against the Kaiser led. by a Republican and .1 Socialist. The coming turmoil will commence on tlw death of the Emperor of Austiii*. which will result, in the separation of Hungary from the Austrian Empire and a. general war over the, allotment of the remaining provinces. The end, she foretold, will be the death ot the Kaisei iu England, twenty three years hence, exiled by his people. fr fr fr fr fr fr fr fr fr REAL ESTATE- t*>tiit i UTr-T 1 T .
