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 annual interest on these bonds at 6 per cent calls for only $203,400. At the end of the fiscal year Granby's net balance of current cash and quick assets was $1,660,228. Apparently this was approximately sufficient for working capital, as its current indebtedness of $664,680 was made up chiefly of $180,663 of wage account, and \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD $431,619 which it owed on supplies. In discussing the Hidden'Creek smelter, General'Manager Sylvester says that while it was originally designed to treat two thousand tons of ore per day.Hhe addition of the fourth furnace and appliances for taking care of flue dust will undoubtedly raised the normal output of this plant, fifty\"'per cent. Since this report was published the Hidden Cfeekrplant has ntad^a new record with a production of slightly more than four million pounds of copper in one.mopjth, and this indicates that its' original capacity has already been exceeded by, approximately- one hundred per cent.

Matheson advanced on an individual who was seen close by excitedly w'aving a rifle and inviting all the Germans in France to \"come on.\" The situation was critical, so a resort was made to strategy. \"Have you an axe you could lend us?\" politely inquired the mayor (he really intended toaskfora feather duster). \"Sure,\" replied the enemy of the Huns. \"I'll go and get one,\" and suiting the action to the word he laid the rifle on the ground went to get the axe.

Trappers Mr. Congdon, a well-known Dawson lawyer, who has.' come down recently from the north, says that \"quartz mining in the Yukon territory is showing considerable activity. A property which has been showing very excellent results, and on which development is progressing satisfactorily; is on Indian river. At another property, on Bear creek, they have a ten-stamp mill in operation, and contemplate the expenditure of $30,000 this winter on development. In the Stewart country there are some exceptionally fine silver properties, and the old trail of Dr. Dawson, by way of Dease river and Francis lake is being largely explored.\" In the matter of placer mining, Mr. Congdon stated that the \"strike\" on Rude creek was genuine and caused quite a deal of excitement. The results went $1.50 to the cubic foot in a test of ground measuring 7,5 feet by several hundreds in length. It was what might be called a poor man's proposition. Parcels For Prisoners Parcel Social In a recent article, A. B. Shubert, president of A. B. Shubert, Inc., Chicago, the largest house in 'the world, dealing in raw furs, states that the reasons underlying th present great demand for furs is Even the Commissioner- of^Doi.lenormousl3f - increased purchasing The postmaster-general draws the attention of the public to the large number of parcels \"for prisoners on hand that have been found unfit to be forwarded. The trouble, he points out is due to poor packing. The parcels are not packed tightly enough. , All parcels should be as nearly round as possible, and the contents should be well padded with shavings, crumpled paper, or some other simi- ' lar protective material. The outer covering should consist of strong linen, calico, or canvas, or other textile material, and should be securely sewn up. As an alternative, parcels may be packed in \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD boxes made of strong double-corrugated cardboard or else strawboard. \"^ . Parcels merely wrapped in paper, or packed in thin cardboard boxes, such as shoe boxes, cannot be accepted. No perishable articles may be sent, and anything likely to become soft or sticky, such as chocolate and candies, should be packed in tins. The above rules apply equally to those for soldiers in any of the firing lines. i A A very successful \"parcel social\" was held in the rooms of the Scan-' dinavian hall, last Friday week.

The Baltic is likely to prove a dangerous sheet of water for submarines to manoeuvre in, due to the phenomena of ice forming first on the bottom and rising to the top in cakes. The leader of the Swedish- Spitzbergen expedition reports that in 1857, with the weather clear and fairly warm, and an entire absence of wind, the sea-- became covered with ice within the space of half an hour.

Probably no district in the Dominion of Canada possesses so great an array of potentialities as the above. The mountains throughout its entire length and breadth, are almost without exception rriineraliferous, containing- gold, silver, copper, iron and other valuable ores, while in a few localities there are more than surface indications of the presence of coal. f/ FOREST A!^D JVSBWERAL WEALTH Its forest stretches are among the richest in the province, and what is of great importance, easily accessable to river and railway. There is scarcely a square mile of it that is not either equipped with high tension wires, or which could not be reached by the expenditure of the smallest outlay. Not the least attraction from the point of view of the investor, is the sites for water power, which abound in this.district. Just at present an immense amount of interest is being directed to the recent free gold discovery in Greenwood, while in the same district is to be seen one of the best equipped free gold properties in the west, a not inconsiderable asset in these days of industrial depression and shrinkage of gold reserves. It is in this district where is | situated the Bhoenix and Grand Porks properties of the Granby Consolidated, to- gether with those of the British Columbia Copper company. In the former camp, and '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD lk .. .

The title deeds to these properties, thanks to a beneficent series of mining laws, are unimpeachable, and if proof is wanted of the statement, let us point to the almost entire absence of mining litigation in the courts of the province. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD AGRICULTURE AND FRUIT-GROWING CENTRE The possibilities of the Boundary as an agricultural and fruit-growing centre are also Worthy of investigation, and a visit to some of its spendidly equipped orchards will prove a revelation to the'stranger.

Classes are also held in Spanish, Itajian, Russian, stenography, and woodcarving. The scarcity of Serbian prisoners taken by the Austro-Germans is remarkable. A German correspondent says \"the Serbian troops rarely surrender, even in hand-to-hand encounters. They fight until the last possible moment. Thus there are enacted in these battles horrible scenes of the wildest fighting unparalleled on any other front.\" General Alexeieff, the new Rus sian chief of staff, is one of the few Russian military commanders who have risen to high rank from very humble circumstances. His mother was an Armenian and his father a poor Russian peasant. He was first an officer in the navy, in which service he became notorious through his opposition to the use of liquor by the sailors. Robert McClure, a ranchman of New South Wales, has left the whole of his fortune of $50,000 to a Mrs. Wareham, of Golcar, Yorkshire. McClure was with the Australian troops who repulsed the Turkish attack on the Suez Canal, in which action he was wounded and afterwards taken to England. The lady, whose husband is at the front, paid visits to the hospital, and did McClure some small services which evidently he remembered before he died.
