"The Miner was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia. The Miner was established by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. After leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, Houston established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. The Miner was published by The Miner Printing and Publishing Company, and the paper's longest-serving editor was D. J. Beaton. The Miner was published under two variant titles, the Nelson Weekly Miner and the Weekly Miner. In 1902, the paper was sold to F. J. Deane, who changed the title to the Weekly News."@en . ""@en .

ACROSS TM__ ONE ON THE FOURTH. July 4th was celebrated at Bonner's Ferry, Idaho. The people of the place were determined to have all the aid possible from British Columbia and so trusted agents were despatched to Nelson for the purpose of getting up a game of baseball between the Nelson and Bonner's Ferry teams. The nine from Nelson, under the management of messrs. Chestney and Elliot, consisted of Weber, c; Delafield, p; Neelands, lb ; Elliott, 2b ; Winslow, ss ; Chestney, 3b ; Jeffry, rf; Black, cf; Gill, If. The Bonner's Ferry team were : Blakely, c ; Field, p; Bacher, lb; Colt, 2b; Callahan, 3b; Livingston, ss; Turner, rf; Sabine, cf; Field, If. The Nelson nine left on the Spokane and captain Gray did all in his power to make things enjoyable for them and the other excursionists on' board. Bonner's Ferry was reached at S o'clock Sunday evening and the nine was met by the reception committee at the landing and conducted to the hotel, and the members of the committee exerted themselves to leave a pleasant impression of the town on their visitors. Bonner's Ferry is a lively town, built, one may say, since last fall, on a beautiful site on the Kootenay. The Great Northern railroad p>asses through the place, and it is backed up bv the rich mines of Grouse mountain and adjacent districts. It has several hotels, numerous stores, saloons and a newspaper, the Kootenay Herald. The exercises on July 4th consisted of a musical programme, reading of the declaration of independence, an oration by hon. W. H. Cla- gett and then the usual-programme of sports. The prizes wrere as follows : Indian canoe race, $5, \"won by Stanislaus ; tug of war, Nelson vs. Bonner's Ferry, $24, drawn ; putting stone, 21 pounds, $7,and $3, J. L. McRae, D. A. McDonald ; running high jump, $10, W. Wardlow ; standing broad jump, $10, Jos. Parkin of Nelson ; fpot race, 100 yards, $7 and $3, G. B. Whitney, W(. W. Burke; ladies' ride for points, $10, mrs. Fred. Lane ; one fourth milt, dash, free for all, George Fry's g.m. Lilly; 300 yard dash, $20, won by Lilly ; baseball game, Nelson?& Bonner's Ferry, $100, won by Bonner's Ferry team, score 15 to 2. The reception committee consisted of messrs. A. Dl Walker, chairman, W. Van Gasken, Ed. D. Tavlbr, A. L. Jameson, W. L. Kinnear, dr. T. A, Bishop, G. W. Roden. Judges of sports, W. W. Burke, John Hoban,c and Phil. Ingalsbee. H. L. Carleton, marsball of the day. Altogether,,the Nelson visitors enjoyed themselves immensely, and, although defeated in the baseball game, look forward with pleasure to the time when they may be able to _ return the compliment. KASLO NOTES. Kaslo has this week welcomed her first cow. Mr. Tod has established an architect's office on Front street. F. W. Hart the well-known furniture dealer of Vancouver is in town. MivHi W. Bucke, recently of Ottawa, has opened a law office in this town. It is rumoured that we are at last to have a post office ; it is certainly badly needed. The survey of Nashville townsite oil the forks of the Kaslo river was completed last week.' G. O. Buchanan's mill is nearing completion, the machinery will be put in without delay. The Nelson Sawmill Co. have established a yard here; B. H. Lee & Co. are there agents. A placer mine has been located on a creek near the head of the lake ; no reliable details as yet to hand/ The Galena Trading Company have bought two lots in block 3 and will commence building as soon as the lumber can be got up from the Pilot Bay ,sawmill. Archie Fletcher has opened his new bar. The old part of the Grand Central will be used entirely as dining and bedrooms under the man- agemant of Joe Bart ell. T. J. Chambers reports a strike on the.east side of the lake nearly opposite Kaslo. The ore carries free milling gold and silver. An assay gives 116 oz. silver $18 gold to the ton. The mineral water claim described in last week's Miner has already attracted the attention of capitalists. Two offers of substantial sums have been made to mr. Kemp for the property, one from Vancouver and the other from Connecticut, U. S. A. Building operations are proceeding briskly. Carney & Barrett's butcher shop is practically completed; Giegerich's store, and the hotels of Mahoney. Devlin & McKay and E. Baum are nearly finished, and work is going on steadily on Hanocks & Rice's store on A avenue. C. Chambers has sold his one-eighth interest in the Slocan Star to White Bros, for, it is stated $3000. Messrs. White now own the whole claim which, according to the unanimous.reports of all who have seen it, is one of the most marvelous surface showings ever-discovered. On Wednesday evening a lire started close to the church on B avenue. The church was saved with difficulty but as there was a strong breeze blowing down Kaslo creek it was found impossible to stop the fire before it had destroyed Clancys cabin and the building Pearse was putting up for a laundry. A Chinese washerman was in the line of fire, but as he did business in a tent he managed to save his effects.

Medicine Hat could be classed among the towns thirty miles from nowhere. What little business was done was on account of a mining viliiage some thirty miles back in the mountains. The entire population of Medicine Hat could have been easily crowded into the little station. \"One night, after a day of the most sultry weather that I had experienced for munths, I was detained in my office on account of delayed trains. A continuous roll of thunder, accompanied by sharp flashes of lightning in the distance, warned me of an approaching storm. I fretted and stormed, as I wanted to get to my boarding shanty, about a quarter of a mile up the country road, before the storm broke. I was leaning back in my chair musing over the events that brought rue west when suddenly a voice broke on my ears: \"Hold up your hands quick!\" \"Glancing up I saw a huge revolver pointed through the little window in the wall through which I sold tickets and behind it a weird mask with terrible shining eyes. In endeavoring to comply with the command, especially the latter injunction, my chair swung around, my head struck on the edge of the table and unconscious I rolled to the floor. \"When I regained my wits I found myself lying on the floor of the outer waiting room; bound hand and foot, with a tall, ungainly looking fellow standing over me with a Winchester. The storm had broken over us and the wind, rain lightning and thunder were something terrific. \"All at once my trained ear caught the sound of the telegraph sounder, and, turning my head, I perceived a man at my desk, working away at my key. He wore a mask, but this did not disguise the fact that he was a young man. As the characters were ticked off and came to my ears I knew he was feeling his way to the location of the delayed trains. I also noticed that he frequently arose and made use of the ground wire from the switchboard, which cut off the; main office in which was located the train runner of the division. At frequent intervals sharp ... cracks of lightning would re-echo through the room as they struck the arrester on the switch. But the man worked on totally oblivious of his surroundings. Suddenly I caught the drift of what he was sending out over the wire and was horrilied to learn that he was trying to manipulate the train orders so as to cause a wreck. Trains No. 47 and 48 passed each other about live miles up the road from my station and he was sending out orders with a cool, steady hand to train No. 47 to take a siding about ten miles east of Medicine Hat and for train 48 to pass 47 at the regular place. These orders would have thrown the two trains, which were heavily loaded with passengers and express matter, together very near my station. \"I could easily hear the sounder, and from his orders knew the would-be wrecker was an expert telegrapher and thoroughly familiar with train running. Every now and then the wrecker would raise his hand from the key as a more severe stroke of lightning would come in over the wire, but he was too intent upon his deadly work to desist. The tramp of heavy boots on the platform outside told me that the DEALERS CASH PRICE contemplated wreck was an organized scheme for robbing the express company and passengers. Muttered curses frequently came from the man at the key as bis plans for wrecking the train would meet with obstacles in the shape of pertinent questions froiti operators up the line who wouldn't stand the new order of things without fully understanding their import. \"The storm continued to increase in force, and peal after peal of thunder re-echoed over and above the little station. Still the wrecker at the key kept steadily at work weaving his web of destruction. Suddenly he called out in a voice of mingfed satisfaction and devilish glee : \"Ah, that fixes the matter all right. Forty- seven has signed the order at the water tank, and in ten minutes they'll go together.

A blinding flash at the switchboard, a shriek from /the wrecker, a,nd the office appeared to be one mass of flame. My guard rushed from the building, and, with a mighty effort, I wrenched my hands free and pulled myself through the door. The little station was as dry as tinder, the oil from the trainman's lamps added to the combustible nature of its makeup, and in a moment flames were breaking out in every part. With loud cries several of the wrecker's confederates dashed- toward the little room to pull their leader out, but the heat drove them back, and as voices were heard up the country road coming toward the station they all disappeared in the darkness. \"A man untied my legs, as my hands were useless on account of the numbness occasioned by the tightness of the throngs, and I explained the situation to him. He hunted up a lamp and dashed down the track and around the curve in one direction while I swung the lantern upon the train coming down the straight piece of track to the station in the other direction. My lantern was not seen by the engineer, but the burning station acted as a danger signal and the train drew up at the station, the engineer totally ignorant of the danger they were escaping and only intent upon helping to subdue the flames. A few words explained the situation to the engineer and the group of passengers that gathered around, and as train 47 slowly rounded the curve from, the east, substantiating my story, the organization of a prayer meeting there and then would have been an easy matter. \" The next day the remains of the would-be wrecker were found in the station, and the railroad company's physician, after holding an autopsy, declared that the man only had been stunned by the lightning and while unconscious had been smothered and then burned to a crisp. In all my experience with lightning that was the luckiest bolt that ever hugged a wire.\" BAKEE STREET, NELSON, B. 0. Co. . F. Teetzel NELSON PROPRIETOR.

The Tulameen Hydraulic company are going ahead with their work and a good clean-up may soon be expected. The operations of this company have given an impetus to hydraulic mining in the'Siinilkameen. John Staiiher has been placer mining at Trout lake, in the Lardeau Pass, and took out $7 a day for over 3 weeks, at a point 12 feet above high water mark. Next fall when water is low, lie will see what can be found on bed rock. J. Cannell and F. Crotty have returned to Kamloops from Boston Bar, where they had been to examine the ground preparatory to commencing .'hydraulic mining. They are not very communicative, which is generally the case with miners when they hajve something good in sight. Great things are looked for from Robert Allison's strike on the Siinilkameen. The camp has been visited by Geo. Pfunder, superintendent'of. the World's Fair mineral exhibit, and from one claim he took a- shovelful cff loose rock and ground it up in a hand, mortar and extracted $5 in gold. Three pounds. 14 ounces of the rock, assayed $22,460 su ton. o The Boundary creek mines, just within the British line and partly in Stevens county in Washington, show an immense quantity of 'dry ore,' and seem almost providentially located with reference to our Slocan find Kootenay lead _>re mines, lead being necessary in the reduction of the Boundary creed ores. One peculiar feature of some of them is that although wholly silver-bearing at the surface; they seem to bear a large proportion of gold at fifty feet below the surface. The proportion of copper and lead is small. - \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\".'A'\"' The earliest record at the United States mint of gold discovered in the United States is 1804. In that year gold to the amount of $2,5C0 was, deposited, it having been found in the state of North Carolina.

The methods of j#i#mg and extraction are being revolutionized jn Wyoming, says the Phcenix Republican, and many properties heretofore considered valueless, are now .on account of the extensiveness of the deposits of low-grade ore, the best producers. A gentleman well informed in '/mining and who has visited nearly every section ,of the territory within the past few months and made tests on hundreds of claims, says the amount of ore in the territory funning from $5 to $20 a ton is incalculable, but would be sufficient to give employment in its development to the entire mining world for years to come. '-...., Chicago and New York capitalists have now become interested in Cripple creek. A large company known as the Maud'D. M. company h&s been organized. The mining claims owned by the company, which were selected after several months of examination, are located on Tenderfoot, Mineral and Iron Hills. Machinery for a 100-ton concentrator for the Blue Bell company, has been shipped from Canyon city. An 8-foot vein has been struck in the Star of the East. This mine is in the neighborhood of the Buena Vista on Bull mountain. The company is now making preparations to ship ore. On the Sunset M. company's property, a body of rich ore has also been struck. The claim is a little north of Squaw gulch. Some time ago a. mining prospector sent to the United States geological survey some specimens of nickel ore that he had found in Oregon, just where does not appear. The pieces of ore seem like half-rounded pebbles washed down and ground together by the action of water. They had been at first supposed to be meteorites and of no particular value. But it was found that they were scattered in great quantities over the bed where the prospector had discovered them. More specimens were tested and found to be 62per cent pure nickel, the,rest iron, except 10 per cent of stony matter. Theimpres-; sioh conveyed to the geologists who examined! the nickel-iield in Oregon was that the pebblelike bits of ore had been broken off from some OFFICE, VICTORIA, B.C.

The subsidy for the G.P.R's line from Revelstoke to the Arrow Lakes has been voted. The honorable Theodore Davie, Q,C, steps into the position of premier of British Columbia. The customs colled ions at Nanaimo for June were $4473.01, and for the year ending June 30th $75,645.16. Hugh Watt, M.D., of Victoria is a candidate for the representation of Cariboo, made vacant by John Robson's death. Mayor Haslani of Nanaimo has taken possession of the electric light works of that place under a chattel mortgage; Father Chirouse and the Indians; connected with the Indian girl flogging case have been pardoned by minister of justice Thompson at Ottawa. The customs collections at Victoria for June were $80,625.79; for June, 1891, they were $96,- 145.76, showing ai decrease this year of the sum of $15,516.97. Dominion Day was heartily celebrated throughout the coast district, the chief point of attraction being Vancouver, where the festivities extended over Friday and Saturday. There were local celebrations of various societies at Victoria and Nanaimo, and an excursion from Westminster to Harrison Hot Springs. Vernon and Kamloops were also the centres of attraction for the districts surrounding them. Great dissatisfaction has been caused among the letter -carriers and clerks in the post office at Victoria by a reduction which has been made by the department in their salaries. The salaries are reduced from $40 and $46 to $32.70 and $38.70 respectively. A telegram has been sent to Ottawa by mr. Prior, M.P., protesting.against the reduction, and it is hopedtthat it will be countermanded. Otherwise, .the men say, they will resign on Tuesday next. The two morning papers of Victoria in their fierce com petition, departed from their ordinary custom, and both were issued on Saturday, disregarding the national holiday. The staffs however, appear to have been so demoralized that it was impossible for them to get out their issues with the ordinary accuracy. The Colonist dated its Saturday issue as \"Friday, July 1st,\" while the News in its headline on Friday announced itself as being published at Nanaimo, instead of Victoria. Captain Pittendright, the coroner at New Westminster, held an inquest on Friday upon the body found in the Fraser, on the 29th ult., which was identified as that of George Bull, one of the victims of the I_illooet tragedy. The jury found a verdict stating that George,Bull came to his death by murder, committed by a person or persons unknown. The finding of the victim's remains may, and probably will lead to the detection of the assassin. There is no, doubt that the body was dragged to the stream and thrown in after death.

A party of three gentleman were seated at a table of a popular cafe the other evening discussing the case of a friend who had recently been through a terrible surgical operation, when one of the party who had had a similar operation performed on him years ago, observed : \"A man who is about to undergo a difficult surgical operation experiences something of the same feeling that a man must experience who is about to be executed. I know it was so in my case. I had nerved myself, I thought, for the terrible ordeal, and held the assurance of my family physician that the odds that I would come through all right were largely in my favor, and yet, when I entered the operating room and saw the table, the large bags used in administering the anaesthetic and, most frightful of all, the surgeon and his assistants with their* aprons tied under their chins\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDI have faced death in battle and I don't think there is a drop of cur blood in me but my heart quailed at the sight and it took all my fortitude to enable me to mount the table.

I was in the cattle business in 1855 and became acquainted with De Mores in Denver in May. He was a very polite man, but rather inclined to be offish, as we say in the west. About a month after I met him at Barlow's ranch, about 25 miles from Cheyenne. He was mounted on a vicious broncho and appeared to have a great, deal of trouble to keep his seat. A couple of cowboys who had been loading up on tanglefoot were whooping and howling in front of Barlow's shanty when the marquis rode up. Their ponies 'were tethered and they were running foot races, aad for no r(eason ori e^artli were yelling like Oomanches in a war dance. \"They began to guy the marquis on his horsenvahship. He made no reply, but kept on talking to me. Finding he could not be provoked that way, one of the cowboys nicknamed 'Broadback Morris,' because of his unusually broad shoulders, began to show the Frenchman how to ride. His companion followed his example and in a couple of minutes they were circling around the marquis, firing oft their Winchesters and using the most insulting language. Whether he did not understand what they meant I don't know ; at all events, he rolled a cigarette and lighted it. \"\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'Drop that you tenderfoot !' roared Morris, pulling up his mustang with a jerk. \"'Drop that or I'll clip it out of your mouth!' At the same moment he lifted his Winchester. \"De Mores turned half way in his saddle, took a deep inspiration and blew out.a cloud of smoke. As it cleared away the cowboy took deliberate aim and fired.A The cigarette went flying in fragments. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \" Before I knew what had happened, scarcely, De Mores had drawn his long-barreled French revolver from his belt and pulled the trigger.. The Winchester dropped out of Morris' hands. He had been shot through both wrists. The howl he let out could have been heard a quarter of a mile. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD . \"The other cowboy was then on De Mores' flank. As soon as he saw him pull his gun, he grabbed his rifle, but had not time to raise it before the marquis fired a second shot, just at the. broncho gave a lunge and a buck. The bad man tumbled off with a bullet in his shoulder. It might have been meant for his head for all I know.\" \"What did De Mores do then ? \" \"He rolled another cigarette, lighted it and continued the conversation.\" A Juggler's Trick. The wonderful feats of East Indian jugglers have formed the theme of many a letter from travelers in the orient, but none are more surprising than that for which an old sea dog, now lying at the water front vouches. While he was an officer on board the P. and O. steamships two natives came aboard at Madras, he says. They were a juggler and his assistant. After they had performed a number of minor feats and gathered quite a crowd around them they called for a sack and a piece of sailcloth. These having been provided the chief juggler made a small tentlike structure with the canvas and some stools. He then placed his assistant in the sack and allowed a sailor to tie the knot which bound him fast a prisoner. This done, the chief carried the sack into an open space, warning the people to stand back some distance, and then carried on an animated conversation with his assistant, whose replies could be distinctly heard coming from the sack. Suddenly the chief rushed forward, picked up the sack and threw it overboard, where, to the horror of the passengers and crew, it sank out of sight. Immediately the captain rushed forward and seized the man, under the full belief that he had murdered his companion, but the juggler only smiled, and pointing to the canvas, asked that it be raised. This was done, and the supposed drowned man was discovered squatting on the deck. So realistic had been the throwing overboard, however, that it wTas some time before the surprised passengers could realize a murder had not been committed. Cor. Baker and Ward Sts.

It is confidentially asserted that this office will give him his-first job, if the owner of The Miner catamaran ventures out in his craft in any wind stronger than the softest zephyr that ever blew. We doubt it. The Kootenay reclamation works progress as fast as the high water will permit. Mr. Gr. H. Keefer, who is in charge, has derived one benefit from the unusually prolonged flood. It has enabled him to thoroughly explore all the land that is to be reclaimed in a canoe. He does not anticipate much difficulty in carrying out the designs of the company. The storm on the evening of June 30th struck Pilot Bay with tremendous force. A scow moored to the wharf, and the property of the Alberta & B, 0. Exploration company had its roof blown off. The Galena Trading company's store was blown six inches out of plumb. This was made possible by the excavations for a cellar which were going on underneath. W. \"H. Lynch, president of the Kootenay Mining and Investment Company, passed through Nelson on his way to Ainsworth on Friday. Mr. Lynch has busied nimself in the eastern centers for 12 months talking and writing up West Kootenay. So much so that down theie he has been nicknamed \"the Koote nay crank.\" There arp about 2000 Kootenay cranks in this country, so mr. Lynch won't be so lonesome out here as he was back east. Harold Selous spent the celebration holidays on Toad mountain visiting the mining claims in which he is interested. He returns more than ever con vinced that Toad mountain is, as yet, the mineral belt...of the country and only requires production to%e once begun, to prove it to everyone. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD1 a %j 9 Notary Public and Conveyancer.
