All\nabout us the gentle fragrant zephyrs\nzeph and the mountain peaks wear a\ncanopy of beautiful snow from which\nthe sparkling, tinkling rivulets flow in\ncrystal coolness to the placid bosom of\nthe blue Slocan. Down in the gulches\nthe Iillies bloom and the great green\nfirs rear their lordly heads and spreading branches to shelter the fairy glades\nfrom the summer sun, or words to that\neffect. Why, tenderfoot brother, do\nyou stay in the .dusty, sun baked cities\nof the east to bake by day and swelter\nby night while your patience runs down\nand your laundry bills run up. Why\nmust you stay in the stifling centres of\nsuperheated civilization to be forever\nthe slave of the iceman and the mark\nfor the soda fountain girl. Pull your\nfreight for the glorious Slocan with its\nmountains of silver and snow. Come\nlave your malodorous pedal extremities in the limpid waters of the halcyon\nSlocan, or listen to the tinkle of Carpenter creek as she gently rolls the\nboulders down the sump and playfully\ntears flumes and bridges from her path.\nCome and roll in the snow of the Last\nChance Divide or wallow in the fleecy\ncoolness of Paddy's Peak. Pitch your\nlittle a\ tent on the summit of the Kokanee hills where the booming thunder\nof the slowly moving but resistless\nglacier will furnish you sweet melody by\nday and the stars will comb your hair\nby night. Come gentle pilgrim to the\nglorious Slocan. Throw away the toils\nand cares of the sunburnt 1 ity. Leave\nthe strifes and the passions that haunt\nmen's lives for the grand dignity of\nnature. which calms men's souls but\nfills their blankets with porcupines\nYou don't know much fun we have in\nthe viest.

C, JULY 6,\nW)at tf)e freaks Bid to nelson\nand What tf)ep Bid to Vrail.\nThe Aggregation of Freaks are winners in the baseball line. This is one\nof the principal discoveries made at the\nNelson celebration. It was also clearly\nproven that Fred Bailey, Paddy Murphy, Little Willie Richards and one or\ntwo others can play ball. But the\ngreatet discovery of all is that Ernest\nPetty is a cyclone agent in the pitching\nline. Up to the hour of going to press\nno one has been found to dispute the\ncontention that Petty is the most advanced student of the base ball science\nB.C.\nHie aggregation left Sandon on\nSunday last and played an evening\ngame in Kaslo at which Ed Giegerieh\npitched upraises and the field got considerable practice. The score went up\naround a dozen and the gate receipts\nare now on the way to Milwaukee.\nOn Monday afternoon the big game\ncame off at Nelson. The program\ncalled for a draw for places oetween\nNelson, Trail and the Freaks, but the\nTrail team did not show up on Monday\nand the aggregation went at Nelson.\nThe line up of the Slocan team was as\nfollows: Petty, pitch ; Geo. Long,\ncatch ; Paddy Murphy, first bag ; Fred\nBailey, second ; Adam Esch, third ;\nEd Giegerieh, short ; Willie Richards,\ncentre ; Charlie Greenlee, left ; Kid-\nwell, right.\nIt was the first time the boys had\never played together and they went on\nthe field depending on good individual\nplaying against Nelson's practice and\nteam work.\nIt was swell ball from the turnloose.\nThe Nelson boys had it put up that the\nFreaks were easy, and they prognosticated among themselves about the\nhard game they would have next day\nwith Trail ; but that was before taking.\nWhen Ernest Petty stepped into the\nbox and started throwing the gun\nworm curves in their direction the\nNelson boys consecitively pounded the\ninoffending atomspherc soft and then\nretired to the bench to revise their\nnotions about who would play with\nTrail. After a while they got tired\ntrying to locate those fnnny things that\nPetty handed across the plate and they\njust went thru the motions of striking\nat them and let it go at that. In the\nwhole game they just touched him up\nfor six safe hits and fourteen of them\nfanned. With the exception of Ed\nGiegerieh, who had an off day, the\nSandon fielding was fairly good, altho\nthey showed lack of practice on several\noccasions. Willie Richards played a\nstar game in centre field, covering a\nlot of ground and accepting every\nchance. At the bat |Sandon did fairly\nwell, considering their lack of practice.\nNine safe hits were made off Sheer, two\nof them two-baggers by Petty and\nBailey, and one a three-base hit by\nBailey. A number of short infield hits\nlet Sandon men to bases owing to the\npoor fielding of Eacrett at second and\nCook at short. Paddy Murphy, who\nplayed first for the aggregation, got\nhurt at Kaslo on Sunday evening and\nafter playing two innings had to give\nup his place to Adam Esch from third,\nwhile Lemay of Slocan City took that\nposition.\nSheer pitched for Nelson and played\ngood ball but he was poorly supported.\nHarry Houston did some good catching\nand threw two men out when they\ntried to steal second, but the other\nfielding on the Nelson side was ragged.\nDudley Blackwood muffed a rainbow\nlob and let in two runs and Worth on\nthird bag stacked up four errors against\nhimself, only accepting one chance.\nOn the whole, however; it was the best\ngame of ball that has occured in the\nKootenay this summer and the aggregation demonstrated its ability lo make\na standoff if not to beat anything in\nthe baseball line in B.

The score\na\nand summary of the game stood as\nfollows :\nSLOCAN AB.\nBailey, 2b 5\nGiegerieh, ss 5\nMurphy, ib i\nGreenlee, rf 4\nRichards, cf 3\nLong, c 4\nEsch, 3b 3\nKidwell, If 4\nPetty, p 3\nLemay, 3b 4\nNELSON, AB.

The weather was not very-\nfavorable and after two innings a heavy-\nshower lasting twenty minutes made\nthe ground so muddy that good playing\nwas impossible. The aggregation was\nnot in nearly as good shape as the day\nbefore as they had to play Eacrett and\nMills of Nelson at third and right.\nEacrett's playing was not of the kind to\nwin him wreaths of columbine, as he\nthrew wild to first twice and failed to\nget some easy grasshoppers that came\ninto his field. He also made a poor\nmess of batting, and fanned with regu\nlarity and precision. Mills, the other\nNelson fielder, got two chances and\nmissed them both, but his errors were\ndue to the slopiness of the ground.\nHarry Houston played a good game\nbehind the bat. Paddy Murphy pitched\nfor the first three innings and held the\nTrail boys down very nicely, but had\nto retire on account of the injuries he\nreceived Sunday, Petty took the box\nagain and after the fourth inning, shut\nthe smelter city folks out altogether.\nThe aggregation's lack of condition\nwas offset by the fact that the smoke-\neaters played Rossland in Trail the day\nbefore and Wormington, their star\npitcher, was not in shape to do business with heavy batters. E. McDonald started the pitching for Trail, but\nafter the first three innings gave it up\nto Wormington, who in turn retired in\nfavor of Drew. The aggregation\nbatted them all heavily and piled up 14\nhits. McCreary caught a fine game\nfor Trail.\nThe summery and score were :\nTRAIL AB. R. BH. PO. A.

C., JULY 6,\ni\nWORLD'S GOLD AND SILVER.\nFalling 0M- in Production of Yellow Metal Due to South African\nWar.\nReturns as to the gold and silver\nproduction ofthe United States and of\nthe world in 1900 are contained in Volume IX. of \"The Mineral Industry,\"\nwhich is reviewed in the current num-\nhcr of the Engineering and Mining\nJournal. The world's production of\ngold last year was 12,381,454 fine\nounces, or $255,924,654, as against\n15,071,141 ounces, or $311,505,947 in\n1899, showing a decrease of 2,689,687\nounces, or $55,581,293. This unfavorable result was due to the small contribution made by the Transvaal mines, a\nfew only of which were operated during\nthe early months of the year. Deducting the Transvaal output from the\ngrand totals for 1899 and 1900, the\nstatistics show an increase in the other\ngold-producing countries of $10,171,000\nThe largest gains were made by the\nl'nited States, Canada, India, Rhodesia\nand Brazil, while in Australia and\nChina there were important decreases.\nIn one respect the gold situation in\n1900 was unprecedented. It has never\nbefore happened that the output of a\ngreat gold-producing country has been\nsuddenly cut off entirely, or almost entirely. TheTrnnsvaal, which produced\n$78,070,761 in gold in 1898, was expected to yield over $95,000,000 in 1899\nand 110,000,000 in 1900 The war\nbroke out in October, 1899, and the\ntotal for that year was $72,961,501;\nwhile in 1900 the only production was\nfrom the few mines which were operated by the government in the opening\nmonths ofthe year, and this work waa\nslopped when the British armies reach-\nJohannesburg. Instead of $110,000,-\n000, the Transvall produced last year\n$7,-208,869.\nThe United States, which in 1899,\nranked third among the great gold\nproducers, in 1900 showed a substantial\nincrease, which with the elimination of\nthe Transvaal, put il in the first place\nin iqoo. Its production amounted to\n$78,159,674. Australasia dropped from\ntirst to second phice, while Canada took\nthe third rank, tho at a long interval,\nand Russia the fourth place. These\n'\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDur countries produced together 72.2\nper cent of the total. Four-fiths of the\nCanadian production came from the\nYukon territory.\nThe silver production of the world\nincreased from 177,836,582 Troy ounces\n(commercial value $105,900,116) in\n'899 to 182,632,653 ounces (commercial value $112,205,742) in 1000, a gain\not 4.7l)6,o7i ounces.

Regarding the\niuture of stiver mining the Engineering\nand Mining Journal says: There is\nevery reason to believe that the\nworld's mines will keep on turning out\nthe white metal and that no large, decrease need be expected, unless a very\nconsiderable fall in price should occur;\nand there is no reason to expect such a\nchange under present conditions.\nHow Jach Lotcea tcaa Drowned.\nTrilby Collins, once a famons newsboy of Seattle and Dawson, and who\nthis year was employd on Prof. Lippy's\nelaini on Eldorado, arrived by yesterday's train and in the evening took the\nDolphin for the Queen City, where he\nwill-regale his numerous friends with\nstories of the golden north. Trilby\ntold an Alaskan reporter many things,\none of which related to a scow accident\non the upper river. He said:\n\"A scow loaded with horses, mules\nand machinery was wrecked 10 miles\nbelow Big Salmon on Tuesday morning\nat 10 a. m., drowning John W. Lowes\nand causing a narrow escape for nine\nothers who were taking the scow to\nDawson. The scow belonged to J. A.\nRouse, of Rouse and Wren, freighters,\nof Dawson. Mr. Rouse at the time\nwas behind the scow in a small\nboat gathering poles for a manger\nwhen the accident occured. The left\nhand channel was taken about a mile\nand a half abovs the wreck, instead of\ntaking the right hand one which is\nconsidered dangerous by all boat men.\nThe channel makes a big bend about\nhalf a mile above the big bed of rocks.\nOnce a scow gets into this channel it is\nalmost impossible to get it out again.\nThe scow hit the rocks broadside,\nthrowing Lowes, who was at the sweep\nwith three others, into the river over\nthe up stream side.\n\"He sank immediately, going under\nthe scow and coming up about forty\nfeet from the wreck only to disappear\nagain. The scow then began to go to\npieces, throwing the live stock and the\nrest of the crew, who were asleep at\nthe time, into the water. A struggle\nfor their lives then began. Mr. Leslie,\nwho runs a wood camp on the opposite\nside of the river, seeing the accident,\ntook a small boat and succeeded in\nputting them all ashore. Two members ofthe N. W. M. P. detachment at\nBig S.'dmon went to the scene and took\ncharge of the drowned man's effects.\nLowes was born in Toronlo, Canada,\nbut had been living at Sandon, B. C.\nfor some time, where he owns two\nhotels and some real estate. He was a\nfriend of L. C. Lane, of Dawson.\"\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\nThe Daily Alaskan.\nSkagway, Alaska, June 21.\nPAINTING\nDECORATING\nSIGN WRITING\nPAPER HANGING\nw\nFigures and estimates\ncheerfully furnished for all\njobs.\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD*___\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD -_^*.j_ik-\nBooth & Robinson,\nReco Are.
