"Devoted to the interests of the Boundary Mining District. The Phoenix Pioneer was published in Phoenix, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from April 1898 to May 1916. The Pioneer was published by the Pioneer Publishing Company, which was managed by W. B. Wilcox (from 1899-1908) and Thomas Alfred Love (from 1908-1911). On August 12th, 1910, the headquarters of the Pioneer burned down, together with a large portion of the town of Phoenix itself, and the paper consequently suffered serious financial difficulties. On April 11th, 1911, the Pioneer was sold to Gilbert Kay, who published and edited the paper until May 1916. The paper was published under a variant title, the Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal, both from 1903-1910 and from 1911-1912."@en . ""@en .

The follows The directors have much satisfaction in presenting to the shareholders the accompanying balance sheet and profit and loss statement, showing net earnings exceeding 12^ per cent. Considering the low rates of interest which have prevailed and the necessity of keeping a good cash leserve, they consider the results very satisfactory. Out ofthebalance of profit as shown, provision has been made for two semiannual dividends at the rate of 8 per cent, per annum, one paid 2nd July last and the other payable 2nd January next. One hundred thousand dollars has been carried to reserve fund, making that amount up to $1,600,000 being 64 per cent-on-rihc capital, leaving a balance of $24,566.18 to be carried foi ward. Branches has been established during the year at Actoiivale, Hemming- ford, I.ennoxville and Waterville, in the province of Quebec, and at Vancouver and Midway, in British Columbia.. Sub-agencies have also been opened at Valcouit, Bdloeil, Iberville, Clarenceville, Lacolle, Scotstown, Howick and Stanstead, in this province. They are also about to open a branch on Wellington street, in this city, in order to accommodate the growing business in that section. Previous reports have foreshadowed the opening at Vancouver, and although the branch has only been opened for a few months a very satisfactory business is being done. The Midway office is at a point where large expenditure is being made by the construction of two railways and is a central point in that section. Deposits have increased during the year exactly $2,000,000, being largely in exefss of any previous year, showing the increasing growth and prosperity of the countiy, which is very gratifying. In view of the increasing business of the bank, the direcors have decided to issue the balance of the $1,000,000 capital authorized at the special meeting ol\" shareholders in Kebiuaiy, 1903, viz.: $500,000, the. calls being payable 10 per cent monthly with the premium commencing on second day of January next, the issue being at 60 premium. As there appears to be a pretty general desire by investors for more frequent division of profits, your directors have decided to meet this demand, and in future dividends will be paid quarterly, viz.: Januaiy, April, July and October. The inspections of the various offices have been made as usual. In conclusion the directors have much pleasure in testifying to the zeal and fidelity of the general manager, inspectors, managers and other officers of the bank. The whole respectfully submitted. William Kakwell, President. meeting and . covered very fully the points mentioned in the report, after which he moved its adoption, seconded by vice- president Wood. The general manager followed and reviewed the financial statement which was presented, and spoke of the general prosperity which Canada had en: joyed during the past year. The meeting was also addressed by Judge Alfred, .Hon. Hr. Hackett, A. N. Thompson and other shareholders of the bank, all of whom expressed themselves as being highly pleased with the: report that was submitted and with the bank's position. Votes of thanks were passed to the presidetit'and directors for their atten tion to the affairs of the bank; also to the general manager and staff for the efficient manner in which they had performed their duties during the year. ...

Birnie, brother of Alderman L.Y. Birnie, died at the Phoenix hospital from typhoid fever, an operation for perforation of the bowels having been performed on Saturday in the hope of saving his life. Mr. Birnie was a young man of but 20 years, having arrived in Phoenix from Vernon but two or three months ago. His two brothets, Leslie Y. Birnie and Ed Birnie, and his sister, Mr. Forbes Kirby, of Grand Forks, were here at the time of his death. Monday Ed Birnie and Mrs. Kd'rby accompanied the lemains to Vernon, where the parents live, the funeral taking place thereon Wednesday. Deceased had been ill but about ten days and was of strong physique. While everything known to medical science was done for him, the ravages of the disease were too much A large number of friends of the family showed their sincere sympathy by escorting the remains to the C.P.R. station. A man giving his name as Alex Mc- Dougald, who had been in Grand Forks about a week, forged Dr. Kingston's name to a Royal _ Bank cheque for $40, made payable to himself. The man, after cashing the cheque, was arrested, and given six months hard. George Taylor, of Grand Forks, has been awarded a contract to cut two million feet of saw logs for the Kettle River Lumber Co. They will probably be cut from timber limits up the North Fork. $10,000 Worlh of Butter for Phoenix.

It' is good that mankind in general^ at this season, should lay aside its many cares and, even for a brief season, exhibit the holiday spirit.\" We are, all of us, too apt to be so immersed in our everyday business matters that we think .too little of these \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD things and pay too slight attention to them. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD While'-all may not think as they should of the significance of the occasion recurring' on the 25th of ' every December, there are few but :*that can take part in making the anniversary more pleasant for some ac- ' quaihtance or friend. A philosopher has said that there is more joy , in giving than in receiving gifts, and he .was certainly a student of human nature at its best. For instance, how can one secure more satisfaction than in witnessing the pleasure of the little ones at Christinas time, when they receive their toys and remembrances of every kind, be they ever so humble. It is a' satisfaction not to be -obtained in any other; way on this earth, and those who have given it the best test are best aware of , it. And then, being, all of us, children of a larger growth, the same thing will work with our elder friends; ,/i'hey appreciate being remembered, not perhaps for the intrinsic value of the remembrances, but for the fact that they are not forgotten. Particularly in the west, possibly, do we appreciate the holiday time, though we may not show it at all seasons when, they ' come round. This year let us make an exception, if we can., If we know of someone who is bedridden or who has been \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD through the valley of tears, or who has seemingly had more than his or her share of trouble, let us make it our special care to show that peace on earth and good will do prevail to a large extent, in the Boundary as elsewhere. Such actions will bring their own reward in the satisfaction that we have made the effort to mak<; others happier at this time of year. ' A Beneficial Evolution. Thoughtful men, for' the last few years, have been noting the evolution that has been taking placer in eastern financial circles rcgaiding-uiiiiinj*, in vestments. Whereas, ten years ago il was not easy to find a prominent man who had any connection with mining interests, now they are numbered by the, thousands, and their number is steadily increasing. < They have discovered that mining is no more hazardous than any other industry if carried on with proper safeguards. The immediate result has been profitable operations in western fields, with increased capital ready to take hold. One of the most successful mining men in Montana, who has recently returned, from,an;extended visit to the east, where he has extensive connections, notes, the change of sentiment regarding the mining industry in gen- eial and Montana in particular, says the Chicago Mining World. He says in this connection: \"There are now more responsible business and financial .men identified with the mining industries ot the country than at any other time in the history of the development of the mineral \"resources of the great west. The number of mining stoeks on which quotations are now made in New York and Boston are over 300, compared wilh about '80 three years ago, and to this collection may be added hundreds of miscellaneous mining stocks which aie notquoted publicly, but for which a market exists. The mining industiy in the past did not always enjoy the best of reputations, and there are many who have said they would 'have none of it,' because of the results of misjudged 'flyers.' The industry is now surrounding itself with factors that are making it a well-recognized branch of the industrial development. of the country. This evolution, so to speak, from 'wildcatting' to respectful consideration has not been the result of any particular reform instituted by any man or group of men, but - is largely due; to the calmer discrimination which has been exercised, from time to nine by.those inclined to become interested in mining property.\" These changed conditions are felt and appreciated in Montana and other western mining states. No longer can a smooth talker, armed with elaborately printed stock certificate^ and nothing else, go east and sell sto;k. And such attempts are no longei considered. The man or men with good properties, upon which a report lrom a recognized mining engineer can be made, has no trouble at the . present time in getting all the capital necessary in the east, to develop the properties. rate plus the local rate back, even though a haul of a thousand miles or thereabouts is saved by the railway company. They are beautifully silent about a little matter of that kind. This is what interior shippers ' are up against all the time, and .there is no redress because it has become an unwritten law with all the railways. Water competition is alleged, to be the cause of this discrimination in.favor of coast points\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDand of course there is no water competition for the interior. Shippers here must take their medicine and look pleasant, as they have been doing for lo, these many years. Mighty little sympathy will be wasted on the C.P.R; on account of this.boycott, but it will doubtless end where such things usually terminate, in victory for the railway company. The coast meichants may have a jjood cause, but they would get more support if they assisted the interior dealers to secure a reduction on the existing rates. Tlie* present rates to the interior lrom. the east or from the coast are an ' outrage. Perhaps, like the eel who was skinned so often that he liked it, we may get so that we like it in time, but the time is not very close as yet. Kootenay Engineering WorRs NESON, B.

Ingram, formerly chief of police at_ Rossland, and also at Calgary and Winnipeg, and injuring several people besides. Ingram was in charge of the powder, and his deflth removed the only possible source of inloimation as tothe cause of the explosion. His body was recovered from the debris badly mangled. Lockhart, assistant diamond drill operator, who was at work under the Centre Star offices, was badly cut about the.head and lees, but will recover, Several members of the office staff and men in the compressor building were hurt by flying glass or by being thrown violently against the machinery. Buildings in the immediate vicinity were twisted out of shape and the windows all broken. The big War Eagle boarding house was badly damaged, some of the inmates being slightly injured. In the city of Rossland the shock of the ex plosion caused much consternation and did a large amount of damage. Near-] ly all the plate glass windows on .Columbia avenue were smashed, many people receiving cuts from the fragments. The merchants had their Christmas goods displayed, much destruction being wrought among these. The amount of glass destroyed is enormous, and heavy importations for repairs will be necessary. The citizens feel thankful, nevertheless, that the loss of life and property was not greater. The Centre Star, War Eagle and LeRoi mines were shut down for a few days because of the injury to the steam and air pipes and compressor machinery and the practical wreck of the building containing them. 'I'he damage can not be exactly appraised, but it.is thought it will reach probably $50,000. John S. Ingram leaves a widow and five children. HER PHYSICIANS DESPAIRED. ADVISED CHANGE OF CLIMATE.

The Frank smelting plant for the treatment of zinc-bearing ores has a capacity of 120 tons per day. The company has a coal mine in its own right rlongside, from which it can deliver coal at 60 cents per ton. The Kaslo magnetic zinc separator has succeeded in getting a concentrate of 50 per cent, zinc, while the iron saved is sufficient to pay for the treatment of the ore as a flux by the smelters.
