C, SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1001. $2.00 PER YEAR. Mr. (Jiiilzbiirger Interviewed Tho following is what lie told a Nelson reporter, respecting a conversation he hail recently with Belgium manufacturers : "The upshot of our discussion," says Mr. Gmt/burger, "was that the Antwerp people said "send us all the lead you can produce. It is only a question of quality with us, and if this is assured, we can handle an unlimited supply of iea.l." ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ This leads thc Monitor manager to the conclusion that if the lead mining industry 'of the Kootcnays can have its product refined here, no dilhcnlty will lie experienced in obtaining a market for the pig lead. He is not sanguine as to the success of an enterprise for manufacturing the refined product, on the ground that, only-15 per cent, of the output could be consumed in Canada, and that,difficulty would he found in placing the balance. Eventually these conditions could'be overcome, but he regards the refinorv of prime importance in the future success of the country, with a factory as a subsequent development of the industry. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ At the .Monitor mine development is proceeding steadilv. The corporation controlling tho property is working out .1 comprehensive programme of development, the completion of which is a matter of a year's work. It is estimated that this will place the propertyon a* producing bn-sis equalto any of the big Slocan mine. About four carloads of ore aie being taken out now in the course of development. This is being shipped with excellent results. THE LOCAL GRAFT. Public School Report for February. FIK.ST DIVISION. Number of pupils attending during the month 18.

Attention to the a!"ove would save considerable trouble, and obtain better results. J. E. Lovkking, Principal. Experiments are now in progress at McGill College, Montreal, Canada, with a mopt ingenious machine for the separation of ores. * The Wetheril magnetic separator is designed . to sort one ore from another by means of magnetic forces and is able to accomplish refin Its that hardly be brought n bout in any other way. The ore to be treated is powdered small and supplied to an ordinary hopper by a circular feeder. From this it 'lulls upon a belt and is carried along under a strong electromagnetic. Those substance which answer more readily to magnetic force are drawn from the first belt to a second traverse one, which carries thorn' beyond the magnetic Held and then drops them into a second hopper. By this method substances are separated according to their sensitiveness to1 magnetic influence with a very small percentage of error, due to mechanical causes. Moreover, by inereasiru* or decreiising the electric current passing through the magnet, it is possible to divide two substances, both of which will respond to the influence, but one more readily than the other.

How many people are now complaining- of special ailments or lingering sufferings or weaknesses which are clearly the result of the debilitating effects of la grippe ? The best plan is to prevent la grippe, if possible, or, once a victim, to apply yourself diligently to obtaining what relief you can. Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine is wonderfully, beneficial, because it allays the inflammation in the. throat and bronchial tubes, loosens the cough, heals the lunjgs and prevents pneumonia or contgumptiton. It is a great mistake to suppose that Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine iï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ a mere cough remedy. It is far more. It thoroughly cures the cold as well, and seems to take the aches and paina out of tho bones. No ordinary cough mixture could ever attain the enormous sale which this medicine now has.

The regular and persistent use of this great food cure is bound to result in the up-building of the system, because it contains in condensed pill form, the most efficient restoratives known to man. Though only known in Canada for a few years, this fnmous discovery of Dtr.

The Kvll Effects ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½r TobitM-o H:y bo Cï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½*** , lrrar.fo.tl by t*<i<i-l B-'oim!, Prof. Hart, thc New York food specialist, writing on the tobacco habit, maintains that its evil effect* may be counteracted by the simple expedient of eating good wholesome food. Tobacco, being a narcotic, has first a soothing, then a depressing effectï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½the very opposite to alcoholï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½so that if smoking is long continued, without thc use of stimulants, tha deadening effect on the brain and nervous system is apparent, a3 tho smoke is condensed and absorbed by,, the saliva. Even when frequent expectoration takes place the blood is more or less poisoned, and the brain, which should under normal conditions, be very] susceptible, becomes deadened and in-, active for a time, but may be partially, ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ restored by, a stimulant containing phosphates. Such stimulant is. frequently taker* by rox-ja a,t a convivial party by taking some wine or spirits, which counteract the depressing effects of the nicotine of tobacco, , I am of the opinion, says Prof. Hart,;:- that the effects of tobacco and cigarette smoking are far more serious- during the last thirty-five years of one's life than during and previous, period, for the simple reason that the people have been deprived of their nerve and brain forming phosphates by the modern miller. I have positive proof of the fact, in numerous instances, that where excessive smoking and drinking has been), the daily habit that by the simple change from an innutritious to a more nutritious and brain sustaining diet the patient has gradually and almost unconsciously been enabled to reduce the number of cigars or cigarettes and the number of glasses- of whiskey from ten to two per day, and that without any prescription of prohibition, for the simple reason that the increased strength of body and brain enabled hi,-ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ to so employ his time that he forgot all about the smoking or drinking. I may mention one case as an illustration, an actual fact: The Patientï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½"I suppose if 01 make up miy mind to follow your dietary you will deprive rae of my whiskey and cigars?" He wast in the habit of smoking fifteen cigars and drinking ten glasses of whiskey) per day. I replied; "Oh, no; if you ea,t what I advise you you can; drink, and smoke what you like." He then consented to be advised, and within three months was so improved in health and capacity a3 to attend to hia work as the chief accountant of important corporations. Three cigars and two whiskeys were BUffficient. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ Constant smoking not only deadens the susceptibility and lessens the capacity for original thought, but it destroys the appetite and natural desire and relish for food.

' It is quite possible that temporary ar. rangements may be made with home and outside smelters to tide over the present complications in the way of min ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ ing in the Slocanï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½but it will be only a passing palliationï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½it will not guarantee any permanent remedy. As we now use but 12,000 tons of lead-in Canada, while last year we produced nearly double that amount, it must be apparent that no legislation that does not promote exportation can never give permanent relief. It is quite true that if higher duties were placed on imported lead manufactures, it would retain for us the home market, and possibly enable us to export a quantity besides, but nil Bitch fostering would not fully meet the situation. Our silver-lead production is only in its infancy, and if properly treated must grow infinitely faster than our increase in population, so that home consumption will call for but a email fraction of our output. Successful exportation is then the only hope of the country. With smelters fed bv our own protected coal, one step towards a satisfactory solution of the problem would be assured. In a bonused refinery a second very important step would be reached, as we could then export such metals j only as our customers required. A mint J for the coinage of gold and silver would j be the third move towards eventual and . permanent success; but more is neces-I saryï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½we must be enabled by govern-1 ment assistance in output to overcome our excessively heavy freight rates, and land our pig lead or amalgam, as the case may he, in all competing countries as cheaply as any other producers can do it. If that was once secured, the problem would he,solved for all time. Outside of coin altogether, though there are no grounds for fear on this score, there always will be a large demand in the arts for silver, and an assured one in every country for lead, so that if we are only enabled by legislative aid to compete with'.any and all competitors where our inetals aie required, tliere is every hope for the silver-lead districts.of the province, no matter what other adverse conditions inav arise. " FAT AND LEAN . That is, babies: fat, they are happy and safe; lean, they are neither happy nor safe. Apart from being entirely healthy or not quite well, a fat one has much reserve of vital strength to resist any sudden attack, while the lean one has little or no reserve. The way to be fat and well is Scott's emulsion of cod-liver oil. A little: only a little. Not any, if healthy and plump already; "let well enough alone."- We'll send you a little to try if you like.

It will yet become impressed on the conviction of the electors of this province that, the aspirant who panders to their strongest prejudices, and promises them the most for their votes, will in time be shown to be their greatest weight and the worst enemy of the country. Until this is fully learned, however, we may expect to see charlatans and quacks filling the legislative halls of the country. , W. S. Dkhmtry I' , San-Ion-'-B, C.- . H'T. Twiho New Denver, M. C WHY IT IS. The Nelson Miner says the province possesses many able tuerr, and regrets there are not more of them in our provincial parliament to mould the necessary legislation of the country. The cause of this is not far to seek. New comers to every new country invariably think they have a right to grow rich in a few years; and they invariably see or are shown by political pettifoggers, that it is the crude condition of the laws of the 9011 ntry that prevents them from realizing their dreams. The hoi.est, capable man addressing a body of electors will never promise them what he is , not certain they have have a right to expect, or what he knows would not be serviceable and proper legislation, if passed. As a result he does not come to the standard of the enthusiast who wants Rome built in a day. The dishonest pettifogger will, however, * promise the people everything that tickles their expectations for the time being, and as a result he gets their votes. In time the people learn they have been fooled, but in the meantime the good men have been excluded from the legislature. We haye a striking illustration of this in the case of Joseph Martin. Pie was a resident of Manitoba in its earlier days, and by appealing to the worst passions of the farmers' unions and every other organization in the country, that saw everything wrong in the existing laws of the land because they were not grow- iug wealthy in a year or two, he became the lion of the hour, ln a few years, however, they marked humbug on his back in large characters; snid he left for this province where he has reported himself and with the same results. He is now stepping out of everything political in this province, and retiring into, private life, so it is repeated, but he has been the author of more vexa- la a very common consequence of indigestion and torpid liver. Sometimes there are spots before the eyes and hot flashes. vAt other times a.sensation as of vertigo occurs, at once;suffocating and blinding. It is a.waste of time to attempt to cure this'' 'condition by ordinary means or medicines. The stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition must be restored to healthy activity; the blood must be purified, the liver cleansed and strengthened j before a cure can be hoped for. This is the work done by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, a .medicine specially beneficial in diseases of the stomach, blood and liver. It strengthens the stomach, purifies the blood, cleanses the'dogged liver, and promotes the health of every organ of the body. "My wife was greatly troubled with indigeo* tiou, torpid liver, di-i-dnc-is, ami i:!so irregular perioda." writes Mr. W. A. Preston, of Shuqua- fak, Noxubee Co., Miss. "We tried many different remedies, but none of them pavo perfect relief until we were induce.i by a lady to try your 'GoldenMedical Discovery,' ' favorite rrescrip- tiou,' and 'Pleasant Pellets.' These medicines did more good than anything we ever tried for those complaints. Wc fiav'e used four bottles of your ' Golden Medical Discovery,' one of' Favorite Prescription,1 and two vials of your ' Pellets.' These medicines have done^ the work we desired, and I do heartily recommend them to all ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½imilar sufferers." Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets assist tlio action of the w Discovery." WHAT WE WANT. It is quite evident that if the mining industry of this province is to prosper, one or both governments must come to its aidï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½the Federal on the bonus principle and the Provincial in the removal of vexations restrictions:. It may be as alleged by the provincial authorities in their defence of the two per cent, tax on output, that the mines have not yet paid the expenditure made onloads and trails'for their development, but that is no defence for the tax. Infants of every class are protected until they are able to take care of themselves. It was contended by the majority of the people of Canada up to 1879, that the manufactories of the country f though protected by a 17hi per cent, tariff, were imposed on by outside competition, and the tariff was doubled for their benefit, and at the expense of the whole country. Itia alleged by the mine owners and those w ho understand the situation with them, that the- husi-1 ness is notsuffieiently advanced to stand vexatious restrictions, and the government responds hy increasing their burdens to enhance the receipts of the treasury.;. A glance at the situation shows this is a foolishï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½nay a disastrous policy. None of the underground properties have been shipping more than half a dozen years, but few of them .more than three, and in that short period they have experienced a slump in the value of silver below the cost of production, a strike of a year's duration, a lockout by the smelters and double taxation.' This is at direct variance with the policy pursued by any- other- government in the development of any important industry. To become productive and employ much labor, we must have our own smelteis, a bouu.ed iefin- ery, primitive manufactories, a. mint, ,reduced cost of transport, and the removal of vexatious restrictions by the provincial government.

" England has had many heroes," says Southey, "but never another who so entirely possessed the love of his fellowr-countrymen as Nelson." He was already the "Hero of the Nile," of "Copenhagen," and of a hundred other naval conflicts. It was in 1805, during* the'-great wars with Napoleon, when Nelson, forty-seven years old, received orders to resume the command of the Mediterranean fleet, and on the night of Friday, Sep- tembetr 18, he left Merton forever. He sailed away in the " Victory," and on the 28th joined the fleet off Cadiz, under Vice-Admiral Oolling- ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½wood. Already, be it remembered, he had lo-St an eye Ln Corsica, had received a wound in the abdomen, off Cape St. Vincent, had lost an km a,t Teneriffe, and had been wounded in the head in Egypt,ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½"tolerable, for one war," as. he remarked; Monday, October 21, 1805, he was eight or ten iniles: from Trafalgar. Tlhe Franco'-Epanish fleet and England's squadron, were soon to close in conflict. Nelson had little doubt as toi the result. " I'll give them," he declared, "such a dressing* as; theynev- etr had before." lAbout eleven o'clock, after his interview, with his officers, he went be- kww, to the cabin, to he alone for a few rain-utes. -An officeT, going down later, found him on his knees, writing .wards, which were afterward found to be:' lordship will permit rae to substitute 'expeotfl' for 'confides,' the signal will soon be c^Hipleted. The word ' expects' it* in the "VruMtbulatry. 'Confides,' must be spaUed-'* "That wijl do, Pasfco," wa$ the reply- The signal was given by Sir Home Popham's Telegraph Lc Code, and read as follows; 2o:j, am, stw, aci,' -in, 958 England expects* that every man will (do his duty, 220, 'Mi, .1,21.19,2*. The coioja conveying this sentiment, were hoisted, and Captain- Blackwood relates that the shout with which the signal was received throughout the fleet, when its. significance became fully known, was' ' sublime. "Now," reJcolairned Nelson, turning to Blackwobda "I can do no more. We must trust to the great Disposer of all events and the justice of our cause, I tluin-k Goid far this great opportunity "of doing my duty." His signal wan nolt for that fleet alone, but fox hia. countrymen in all the :great conflicts of ,war or peace which are Jet to come: "England expects that ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½very man will do his duty. ST. HELENA,HAS A BOOM. and "At daylight, saw the enemy's combined fleet from east to east southeast ; bore away ; made the signal for order of sailing, and to prepare for battle, the enemy wearing* in succession. May the great God whom I worship, grant to my country, and for the benefit of Europe, in general, a great and glorious victory; and may no misconduct in any one tarnish' it; and may humanity, after victory, be the predominant feature in the British fleet. For myself, individually, I commit my life to Him who made me.and may His: blessing light upon my endeavors for serving my country faithfully. To, Him I resign myself, and the just cause which is entrusted to me to defend. Amen I Amen I Amen I" At thirty-five minifies after eleven, asl given by the "Naiad's" log, he was on deck, ordering the famous signal to* the fleet. The story is variously tofld, but Pasco's version may be accepted as tho truest. He was on the poop when Nelson approached him, and, after ordering certain signals to ihe displayed, the admiral exclaimed: " Mr. Pasco, I wish' to say to the fleet, 'England confides that ervery man Bhatli do his' duty,'" adding: " You muSit be quick, for I have one moro to make, which is. for close action." Lieutenant Pasco replied: "If your SMALLEST WILD CATTLE. . Celebes Jiag the distinction.of being the home of the smallest living* representative ot thle wild cattle, or, indeed, of tb-e wild cattle of any period of the earth's history,, for no equally diminutive fossil member of the group appears to be kino wn to science.

Island. Perhaps not since Napoleon was ; irivoluritary resident at St. Helen has the island risen to such prominence as it nowi may claim to enjoy. For this reason the report of Governor Sterndale, dated August, 1900, will be found of unusual interest. The iiniports have jumped from ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½34,365 in Ln 1897 Lo ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½91,699, in 1899 and for 1900 a much larger increase is' anticipated. Labor is in demand at good wages,, there is no want among the uindustri- Ous, and "it is a pleasure to record," says the governor, "that, although money has been more plentiful and the temptations or the public houses greater, serious crimes have been absent- and petty crimes less than in the previous year. "The cost oi' living has, however, greatly increased, and during the present) year the prices of food have doubled and quadrupled, so that, what used to be considered necessaries of life, such as milk, butter, eggs and meat, are now, Luxuries, and the principal food of the poor, I.e., fish is both scarce and expensive. "With the increased garrison and the great number of prisoners of war, a large quantity of fish, .which , is plentiful enough in the sea, could probably be disposed of daily .were the people energetic enough to catch them. . ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ i 'ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ "I have always advocated a fishery company '* here, worked by English capital and labor, and had such a one been started as projected in 1896- 1897, it would have been reaping a golden hardest just now, -both in salted and fresh fish. "The aspect of the place has. greatly changed; instead of the quiet monotony of past years, Jamestown is a scene oif noisy activity,) and the perils' of our roads are considerably increased by four-in-hand mule .wagon driven by reckless: Kaffir boys."

King Victor Emmanuel of Italy is an early riser. One morning recently at eight o'clock he arrirred .unexpectedly at the office of administra- tiion of the royal household, which is. situated opposite the palace. He found one fiervant dusting and sweeping. The king lighted a cigarette and walked up and down, waiting. At 9.30 the first clerk arrived. The king asked at! what hour the employes were expected to be at the office; "At eight o'clock, your majesty," replied the emjbarraisjsed official, "And now it ia' 9.30," remarked the king, taking Up hisj, hat and leaving the, premises. Since then all the clerks and officials make their appearance promptly at eight o'clock. - ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ PUT OUT .THE WORSE HALF.

To Purchase Smelters. The fact that the American Smelting & Refining Conip'inv is t,o increase its capital stock to $U)0,(J00,000 reflects the general condition ol" the 'mining industry in North America. This company now contemplates purchasing a number ol! smelters scattered over a wide area and Jn acquiring same will expend in the neighborhood of $20, 000,000. United States Mining Dividends. The dividends paid hy mining companies of the United States '.luring thc past year aggregate over $10,000,000 and theso figures do not include dividends paid by close corporations not obliged to report their proceedings. When theso figures arc considered in relation with the tremendous sums expended to increase future production is there really any question about mining paying? Advocates a Bonus. In the House the other clay Mr. Green strongly advocated a bonus for smelter and refinery in the province for the treatment of Slocan ores. He said the establishment of a smelter and refinery by the government itself would be good policy and ii)si**nce<l such a step as more necessary even than railway development, of the importance of which all members have spoken so emphatically. A Worthy Opinion. The Empire, London, Eng., says : "A shrewd financier, whose expedience is world wide, has expressed to me the opinion that within a year South Africa and British Columbia will be the leading mining centres of thc world. For many reasons British Columbia has never- yet had a fair show. But the time is rapidly approaching when the real value of this province as a gold producer will be fully recognized. Undoubtedly it contains two ur three of the finest mines in the world. Low Tunneling at the Payne. The local mining men are all taking some interest in the working of the lower tunnels of the Payne mine, ins this is the first property that has opened up tunnels so low down the mountain. The company are driving a 15.000-foot tunnel, which will soon be completed, ijr-O feet below the main working to lap i lie lead again at, that depth. If the ore is found at so low a point, it confirms the fact that, large bodies of ore are at tho base of the mountains in this part of the Slocan. All the mines here have improved with depth so far. Assay Olllce at Vaneouver. The government has decided to open an ass-ay office at once in Vancouver, at which gold will be purchased from returning miners at its full value, in the same manner as it has, during the past season, been purchased at Seattle for the United States mint. Tho intention is to acquire, extend and improve the premises of Mr. H. Pel lew-Harvey and that gentlemen will be placed in charge. The question of the.mint will be.decided later, but the assay oflice will accomplish all the benefits in connection with the northern trade for which Vnncouverit.es have been so energetically contending.
