TVs property has\nbeen iu operation but a short\nperiod, active work having been\nprosecuted OB it only since June\n20th last. Nevertheless in this\ntime the Wonderful has made a\nrecord for itself as an ore producer\nthat in nothing short of remarkable.\nOn this property tbe lead was\ns\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD deeply covered with wash that\n(he waters of Trioutary and\nMiller ereeks were brought into\nrequisition and the earth and\nboulder*, the accumulation of\nages, was sluiced ott\" and the lead\nexposed for a distance of 100 feet.\nI Hiring the sluicing operatioiiH the\nore which had broken off from the\nledge was loosened by the action\nof the waters and thus the miner*\nwan ennbled to secure an immense amount of fine ore without\nhaving recourse to powder and\n>teel. It seems remarkable that\ngalena should be mined by means\nof water, but where others failed\nin finding the lend on this property on account of the deep wash,\nthe water did the work and most\neffectually, too, an the enormous\ngulch woin bv the aetiou of the\nstream, will amply testify.\nThe aetuul amount of ore taken\nfrom the mine, since .June 'ast is\nalmost 890 tons. A shipment of\nsome 280 tout was made 10 the\n-.inciter whien gave a net return\ni\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDfIIRJitt.OU. A shipment of H4\ntons has been made since from\nwbieh the returns have uot been\nheard as yet, but it is entimated\nthat the net value will be iu the\nneighborhood of 16,600 iu round\nfigures. Besides this there is a\nlarge amount of ore sacked at the\nmine and which is being rawhided\nto tbe railroad preparatory to being shippel to the smelter and\nthe ore house contains about three\ncarloads of ore, half of which is\nalready assorted.\nAt present a force of twenty-\ntwo men obtain employment in\nthis property, some of whom are\nengaged in driving a tunnel on a\nvein which crosses the Lookout\nand Columbus above the Wonder,\ntill ground. Very fair progress\nU being made on ibis work and\nMime very nice samples of ore\nhave been obtained from the*e\nworkings. On the Wonderful,\nabout 100 feet below the place\nwhere the lead was stripped by\nlast summer's (during operations,\na tunnel is being run to tap the\nvein at a depth iu order to facilitate tbe mining of the ore. The\nground is very easily worked, the\ncost of tunnelling being about $4\nper foot. About 3,000 feet of mi-\nderground development has been\ndone on this property, the greater\npart of which is practically useless\nas for as demonstrating the value\nof the mine is concerned.\nAt this mine, as is the case with\nthe most of the Slocan mines, the\ncomfort of the men is carefully\nlooked after aud their quaiters is\na model of cleanliness and order.\nA fine trail connects the mine\nwith Sandon and consequently the\ncost of transportation of the ore\nfrom tbe mine to the railroad is\nreduced to a minimum. To a\nperson who has never seen the two\ngreat factors in mining used in\nconjunction, a trip to the Wonderful would well repay the small\nefforts he would have to put forth\nin order to reach the property.\nThe Wagon-Road at t eel\nThanks to the energy of Jas.\nMcDonnell. The road between\nNew Denver and the F>rks is\nlikely to materali/.e this winter.\nAlready quite a large sum has\nbeen subscribed and before verv\nlong it is expected that the work\nof construction will commence.\nCharley Hammond of Sandon has\ntaken tbe matter iu hand and as\nthe benefit to Sandon will be great\neverything should be done by the\ncitizens to further the undertaking,\nboth by liberal subscriptions and\nco-operation. Tom Madigau is\nlooking after the interests of the\nproposed road in Three Forks and\nit is to the credit of the residents\nthere, that they are responding\nmost liberally. Denver an 1 Sil-\nverton are both enthusiastically\nin favor of tbe proposition and\ncan be relied on to uphold their\nend So that, notwithstanding, the\nattitude of our Kip Van Winkl*\ngovernment, tbe road that has\nbeen so louu talked of and begged\nfor, will at last become a reality\nChrlatmae Entertainment\nTbe following are the commit\ntees o( ladies and gentlemen who\nhave been appointed to look after\nthe arrangements for a Christmas\ntree and entertainment tube given\nto the children of Sandon.\nSIBSCRIPTION COMMITTER.\nMesdames McKinnou, Hayes,\nLloyd aud Miss Crawmrd. ifliss\nGiles for Cody.\nF.NTKRTA1NMRNT COMMITTER.\nMisses Gibbon, Krayne, Crawford and Smith.\niJOMMlTTKK lOK OKMSRAL WORK.\nMessrs.

This property,\nthough staked in '92, was not developed to any great extent until\na year ago last September when\nactive operations were commenced\nwhich resulted in placing the\nproperty on a good shipping basis\nand high up in the ranks of the\nore propucers of this country.\nSince active mining operations\nhave been commenced an immense\namount of work has been done.\nSome 2.000 feet of tunnelling has\nbeen driven, chiefly on the vein,\nfrom which the great bulk of the\nore already shipped haa been\ntaken. In No I level, which is\nin only about 100 feet, the veiu\nshows an average width of two\nami one-half fe*t of galena or** *n4\ncarbonates. No. fc level, which is\nnow in a'jout 470 feet, shows the\nvein to have increased from two\nami one-half feet to a width of\nfrom six to eight feet with the\ncharacter of the ore practically the\nsame as in No. I level with the\nexception that a strip of concentrating ore lies between the veins\nof carbonates and galena. la this\ntunnel there are about seven\nchutes from which the ore, taken\nout iu the stoping operationsJ^re\nloaded iu'o the cars running iil^te\nlevel beneath. No. 3 level is on*\nof the longest in the country being\nin about 900 feet and as it is iu\nore for almost all the distance, the\nimmense value aud magnitude of\nthe ore chute can be imagined\nThe vein in this level is about\nur feet in width, the ore iu which\nof the same character as that\nntained in the tunnel above.\nA large quantity of concentrating\nore. which is here contained in\ntbe lead, is left untouched, until\nsuch time as a mill can be erected\nfor its treatment. Between No. 3\nand No. 2 levels tbe ore has been\nstuped out for about one-half the\ndistance with very satisfactory result*. No. I level, the lowest\ntunnel in the property, is in about\n340 feet, but they do not expect to\nstrike the lead short of 500 feet,\nand when this is completed the\nmine will he proved to the depth\nol 7 00 feet.\n\"Tbla fine property, two-thirds of\nwhich, it will be remembered was\nsold to Mr. Foster, employes a\nforce of 53 men, whose material\nwants are well attended to, tbe\nbunk and mess house beiug one of\nu II\n. fol\nthe neatest and best equipped\naffairs of the kind in the country.\nThe output from this mine is\nabout fifteen tons per day of carbonates aud galeua ore, the former\nproduct running 70 ounces\nin silver and from 30 to 40 per\ncent, lead, the latter running 115\nounces silver and 70 per cent. lead.\nA fine wagon road connects the\nmiue with the railroad where an\nore house has been built. The ore\nhouse is so large that, in case of a\nblockade on the railroad, the surplus ore can be stored there, thus\nprecluding tbe possbility of having\ntemporarily to close down the\nmine on account of the upper ore\nhouse being tilled up.\nTHE LOCAL CHUTE.\nAwful massacre of Turkey-isb\nsubjects at the Slocan News Co.\nA suow-shed will be built over\ntbe K. & S.

It is difficult to\ntell what course will be pursued. The\nchances are, however, that one of the\nprominent liberals from (Quebec will\nmove a vote of want of confidence iu\nthe government on the school ques\nlion, This may not receive the support of the opposition as a whole, but\nthere is no doubting that with the\nvast majority of the Quebec members\nsupporting the motion the govern\nment is sure to be defeated.\nIn that event Hon. Mr Laurier\nwould go to the country on the school\nquestion issue having his policy\nbaaed on tbe settlement just given\ncue. What Sir. Charles Tapper would\ndo under the circumstances cannot be\ntold, but judging from the sttnd la-\ntook during the campaign it is quit*\nlikely that he would appeal to the\npeople to abide by the constitution.\nSuch being the case it is entirely\nprobable that Sir. Charles would be\nplaced in power by a good working\nmajority, tor he could count on nearly\nall the Quebec members. Mr. Laurici\nwould have no hidden card to play in\nQuebec such as he had at the las'\ncampaign.\nLa Presee (Conservative) has the\nfollowing significant paragraph:\n\"Some Conservative politicians believe that the moment has arrived for\nSir Charles Tuppertoform a coalition\nparty ai Ottawa in older to overthrow the Laurier government. The\npretended settlement of the school\nquestion could, according to them,\nform the best call tor the late minis\ntry to come to power again.\" It addt\nthat the appeal of Monsignor Lange\nvin will be heard in the Province ot\nQuebec, and that the provincial elect\n0 d will take place next spring, not\no.tly on questions of local administration, but also on the famous settlement between Messrs.

The withdrawal\nof capital for investment in land that\nis still non-producing has exausted\nthe older provinces, while the fiscal\nburdens resulting from unprofitable\npuolic expenidtures has had a stiilln^\neffect on almost every form of industry.

The scheme as applied to\ngold mining is to sink shafts a few\ninches apart and pump into them a\nsuitable difcolvent. A strong electric\ncurrent is then to be passed through\ntne soil between the shatts. The action of the electric current is claimed\nto be that it will carry with it the\ndissolved gold from oue shaft to the\nother and deposit it there up any\nmetallic circuit iu the same maimer\nas electro-plating.
