"The Tribune was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from November 1892 to November 1905. The Tribune was published and edited 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. Houston had established the Miner in Nelson in 1890, and, after leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, he established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. In August 1901, the title of the paper was changed to the Nelson Tribune."@en . ""@en . "https://open.library.ubc.ca/collections/xtribune/items/1.0188794/source.json"@en . "application/pdf"@en . " A SCIENTIFIC PAPER WHICH WAS\n\"Read Before a Scientific Body.\n-i\u00E2\u0080\u0094At the recent meeting of the Canadian\nMining Institute at Rossland, which took\nplace a day or two before that bodymado\nitself ridiculous at Nelson, Hector McRae read a paper on \"Scientific Experts.\"\nIt is as follows:\nIn my early years my parents, who\nwere strict Presbyterians, taught me to\nshun the mining: expert, and to avoid as\na pestilence the man who made a study\nof rocks and other low-down things for a\nliving. Shortly after leaving homo, however, it was my misfortune to run across\nono Holstein Loken, whom I looked upon\nas the greatest geologist of the ago. I\nknew he was a geologist because he always signed that way. This Holstein\nwas not a grasping geologist, for all ho\ncharged me was $2 per day and board,\nand $1.50 for his \"rapport,\" as he termed\nit. In the end lie came high, and I had\nto turn him down. I saw, shortly after,\na living star in the form of Henry G.\n-Vennon, and folloAved his advice till he\npublished an almanack, which disturbed\nthe equanimity of all the farmers in fourteen townships. As far as doctors Sel-\n\"wyn and Hoffman Avere concerned, they\nhad my deepest sympathy, as they failed\nto get desired results from tons of rocks\nI had brought them from time to time.\nA few years ago I came out AArest, and\nfound there Avere others, and for the\nbenefit of those Avho may be in.the dark\ntonight, I have prepared' roughly a paper\non some of the \"Men of Today and Yesterday,\" AvhoinT haAre either met or\nheard of iu'my travels.\nI used to knoAv Henry Avell. Worked\nwith him on the Drum Lummond. Had\nno technical training, but just raised\nfrom the pick and shovel. Had lots of\nsavvy, and knew how to work the Englishmen.

New Orleans Timcs-Dcmocraf. \"Tliere goes it man,\" .said i\ Canal street philosopher,''-who has made a i'aihirc of life in spite of exceptional c(ini|)inent for success. He is honest, a liable, highly educated and industrious as a beaver, lie hits no bad habits, and J* couldn't name a man in New Orleans wlio possesses a kindlier disposition, yet lie is continually out of it job and is studiously avoided by everybody who knows him. The mysterious part of it i.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD that nobody can tell you just why, and the poor fellow doesn't im derstand it himself. He is beginning to think that somebody lias worked <*i rabbit's foot on him, .but the secret is really this : lie has a genius for the inopportune. By some malign freak of fate lie always says and does the wrong thing at tho wrong time. It is not lack of tact; it is destiny. For example, 1 like liim, but he never called on me in his life that his visit wasn't highly unwelcome. lie is morally certain to drop in just in time to catch one doing something foolish or discreditable, and you know how wc hate the innocent chance witness of our follies. He made a mortal enemy of colonel because he happened to walk into liis ollice while the old man was dying liis moustache. He chanced on a certain prominent lawyer smirking before a mirror, rehearsing an impromptu after- dinner speech, and tlie prominent lawyer. got oven by knocking him out of a valuable contract. Those arc two cases out of dozen's. He never gossips or tattles, but the mere fact that he has seen things he oughtn't to see and heard tilings lie 'oughtn't to hoar makes his very presence embarrassing to .the,other fellows. It's most unfortunate, and all fate. If lie were introduced -to a man whose grandfather had been hanged he'd be absolutely certain to begin talking about rope inside of two minutes. As I .said before, he has a genius for the inopportune. My wife loathes him because her false frizzes blow off on the street one day and landed on top of his umbrella. He had nothing whatever to do with either the frizzes or the elements, but now I can't ask liim to my house. Terrible to bo under such a curse, isn't ib?\" FORTUNES MADE FROM \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD PATENTS. One often hears of tlie enormous profits made on patents. Many of them aro known not to be fairy tales; some arc well founded. Nearly everybody can point to several cases of the sort in liis personal experience. Talcs of enormous wealth are usually regarded by readers -as-myths,\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDbut-a\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDWestern-manufacturer lias collected a number of specific instances wliich indicate that they are all realities. Hq says tliat a slight improvement in straw-cutters yielded over $80,000 in eight months. A lamp chimney spring yielded over $iJ(),000 a year for several years. A printing-ink invention sold for $00,000. A machine for cleaning grain gave $00,000 in net profits in fifteen months. N. \"W. Spaukling of San Francisco is credited with receiving $100,000 for liis invention of a saw-tooth. The lead pencil rubber tip brought to tlie inventor over $100,000 profit. \"Pigs in clover\" netted $100,000. The Grcely fan brought tlie inventor $5000 a week. Tho inventor of the little cylinder savings bank got about $2000 ,a day for several months. The return ball netted $50,000 a year. A mere toy, a dancing \"Jim Crow,\" made $75,000 a \"year for its inventor. The man who invented hooks on lace shoes got over $300,000 a year iu royalty for them. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been made by Demiison from his shipping tags. The wooden shoe peg yielded over $500,000. The roller skate Drought twice as much. Boot and shoe plates of metal cleared over $1,250,000. Mrs. Pott's sad iron netted over $500,000. Ellas Howe, inventor of tlie sewing machine needle, received a princely revenue of over $50,000 a year. Cyrus H. McCormack, the inventor of the harvesting machine, made more than a million in the venture. Goodyear, who first vulcanized rubber, obtained a very large fortune from royalties. It is said ' tliat Isaac Merrit Singer borrowed $40 to help perfect his first sewing machine, and now one factory alone turns out over 30,- 000 nioc'ltines a week. His net income Is now prepared to issue Drafts and Letters of Credit on S^aguay, U. S., Atliq, B.

The Duulap Pneumatic Tire Company is an illustration of the mint of money there is iu patents. It commenced with a working capital of $112,500. It harh been in operation but two years when it was sold for $ 15,000,00(1 cash. The shareholders had then received in dividends \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDiiul premiums the sum of $:J,200,.*J75, and by the terms of the sale received the further sum of $1'1,437,500, giving a total result of $17,0.'iS,O75. The purchasers afterward resold to another company for tlie sum of $25,000,000. The Wcstinghouse air brake made $30,- 000,000 in profits and the Bell telephone has paid $30,000,000 in dividends. It is claimed that there are 150 patents paying more than $1,000,000 each annually, and S50 more paying half that sum each year. There tire thousands paying more than $100,000 yearly. According to an estimate by the commissioner of patents, from three-fourths to seven-eights of the entire manufacturing capital of the country of upwards of six billions is based upon patents. The products of all the gold and silver and diamond mines in the world would no. equal in value the annual incomes of American patentees. Need Not Look to Germany for Aid.

Without exception, they disapprove of- war, and tliey blame Cireat Britain for badgering the Transvaal beyond endurance. The Liberal press also blames the Transvaal for its illogical stand in first sanctioning Great Britain's attempt at interference in its internal affairs and then rejecting such attempts and making thereof a casus belli. The National Zeitung doubts whether ib is still possible to adjust things in South Africa except by force of arms. A foreign official said to a correspondent of the Associated Press: \"Of course it is not to our interest to have England and the'Transvaal go to war. That little Boer nation will finally succumb and probably will be wiped out of existence. Ifc is only too likely that this will diminish our prestige iu South Africa and injure FULL LINE OF our no inconsiderable interest there, for our trade with tho Boer states is increasing and is only next to that of England. Still there is no occasion and no political or material right for us to interfere, so long as our undoubted rights are respected by the belligerents.\" No Interesting News.
