Construction of Anyox Concentrator Steadily Progressing Construction work is now being rushed on the, new Concentrator, and the structural steel work now being erected gives one a fair idea of the size of the mill building. The first oolumn was erected on the 24th. of August, and the steel workers are making good progress, They have a movable derrick, with an 80 foot boom, which enables them to pick up steel from the cars below and put them direotly in place. Good progress is also being made on the crushing plant. The bins are formed up and will soon be ready for the pouring of oonorete. The lower walls of the bins are 68 feet high, and the forms look very impressive up on the Steep hillside. Thesel bins will have a capacity of 2000 tons, and are Teaohed by a new trestle which brandies from the "High Line" and when completed there will be three tracks over the bins. There are four main levels in the crushing plant: the trestle and tracks, 'the bottom of pre bins, the gyratory crushers (of ■ which -there] are two,) and' the rolls. < There will be a conveyor system from the crushing plant to the mill, which will carry the fine ore. to the steel bins in the mill.. There will be" a complete water supply system covering the whole plant, whioh will include a high pressure fire protection line. Power will be distributed from a Transformer house, whioh will soon be in course of erection, and will . operate conveyors, orushers, rolls, rod mills, flotation machines, cleaners, screens, and filters". Loyal Order of Moose Lodge Grows As will be seen from the advertisement appearing in this issue, Organizer W. P. H- Thompson has made great progress with the organization of. this Lodge in Anyox. > The charter list was filled some'time ago and the membership list is rapidly approaching the century mark, but the organizer has great hopes that by the time the Lodge is properly instituted it will possess a roll call of two hundred members. On arrival of supplies, which are expeoted at an early date, a meeting will be convened, full particulars of whioh will be advertised in. the Herald. Alice Arm Mining News Vanguard Ore Carries High Gold Values Development work on the Vanguard property this year has proved to be of more value than was at first expeoted. Samples of iron pyrites sent to the government assay office have given returns of $16.00 in gold per ton. The iron pyrites are found on the foot wall of the copper vein recently encountered on the property. The oopper vein is high grade ohaloopy- rite, carrying gold values, and is eleven feet wide, with three feet of iron pyrites ore. The distance of the strike from the portal of' the tunnel is 102 feet, and having a depth of over 90 feet. Those who have visited the property during the past few weeks are convinced that the property has the earmarks of a a good mine. Esperanza is Looking Good Additional men were taken, on at the Esperanza mine last week, and development work is being proceeded with in. the tunnel above the Bttifly *tunnel; " A: new""ledgei of quartz ten feet wide has been encountered; the quartz is shot through with ore, and there is ten inches of high grade ruby silver on the foot wall. Average assays of the whole ledge are being taken with a view of mining the whole shoot. Forty Tons of Ore Shipped Forty tons of high grade silver- lead ore were shipped south on the Chilkoot last week. This ore Was mined by the United Metals Co. a few years ago, on their property on the Illiance Biver, aud for some time has been lying on the Silver City side of the bay awaiting ship ment to the smelter.- Mining Man' Enthused Mr. Wm. Bunting, of Hyder, Alaska, spent several days during the week examining properties in the Upper Kitsault country going as far as the Kitsault glacier.

Hanson says Properties are Worth Developing Dr. Geo Hanson government geologist, who left Alice Arm last week, in reply to a question by the Herald regarding thex possibilities of the mining industry in the distriot, stated that Alice Arm undoubtedly possessed many mining properties that were well worthy of development by mining, companies, and predicted that the time would come when these properties would be developed. Speaking of the chalcopyrite. copper properties, Dr. Hanson said that Chalcopyrite was a primary ore, aud the only thing neoessary to show ore/Underground was to do work in the right place, vand he instanced the Vanguard property as an example. Dr. Hanson has studied the Alice Arm country pretty thoroughly for the past three summers, and his opinion oarries considerable weight in mining circles. Alioe Arm no doubt has the mineral but is at present sadly in need of Capital to develop her latent riches. . A. C. L.

Explanations !.., Due to an unexpected congestion of work at the the week-end, this issue of the Herald is a little late in making its appearance. Rather than publish an edition that was not up to the usual high standard, we deemed it the best course to be rather a day or two late than publish a skeleton sheet, and we trust our readers will be satisfied with the course we have taken. The Lord Helps Those Who Help Theinselves The classes •for the Northern Polytecnic Institute of Northern B. C. will shortly be formed, and the question will arise. How should I spend my leisure time this winter? For any man or woman in Anyox or Alice Arm there should be only one answer. I should improve my education, in some manner this winter now that the opportunity is placed before me. The Polytecnic classes do not take up all your spare time, you will still have time to indulge in a little recreation. There is a long winter ahead; don't let it pass without improving your education in some way, and if you decide to enroll in any of the numerous classes that will be formed you will be doing yourself an immeasurable amount of Summer Sports Another summer sports season has now about run its course, and a very enjoyable one it has been for all'concerned. Anyox can justly be proud ' of its splendid aggregation of young athletes, and the sportsmanlike spirit in which all games have been played. Of course there is some grouching at times concerning decisions of the referees, but then, it is an inherited habit of the Anglo-Saxon race to grouch, and providing no animosity is harbored, no one is hurt. The big - fire I somewhat disrupted the playing of games for a short time, but this little difficulty was overcome, and about all that remains now to complete the programme, is the big celebration, which is an annual event, at which the Community League are the hosts. Congratulations to the officials of the League, who are in a large measure responsible for the summer sports programme, and three hearty cheers for the players—the best bunch of good sports, that ever competed on the playgrounds of Anyox. Great men tell in, that the most useful, beneficient and priceless of inventions is the alphabet. By it men express their thoughts, and convey their ideas, one to the other regardless of distance. It helps those that are at home, and reaches out towards the people beyond the seas; within its circles of influence are all ages and all races. It naturally follows that the next great organization is that institution oalled the "Post Office" which spends millions of dollars annually in conveying those twenty six letters in all the various forms in which they are applied, rendering a service to the business and social world, a service unsurpassed by an other Organization. , fr Loyal Order of Moose ANYOX LODGE LARGE MEMBERSHIP ALREADY ENROLLED Two Hundred Members Expected For Particulars: Apply W.

Hollinger Mine will be the World's Largest Gold Producer North Bay-^In the gold silver arid nickle centres of the porcupine area large producers are taking strides that will mark the second half of the current year in encouraging contrast to the first half with respect to production and profit division figures. The outstanding figure in this progress is Hollinger Consolidated goldmines, Which has been consistently treating ore at the rate of 5,000 tons a day, and according to the predictions of its general manager will strike its stride f pr the last half of 1923 at from $35,000 to $40,000 a day, or a total of »7,000,000. Geological formations encountered up to this time indicate, the continued deposition of gold to great depths. One of the greatest shaft-sinking operations ever undertaken is now underway. Its ultimate Objective will be a depth of 6000 feet and a quadrupled scope of operations. The company plans to enlarge its milling capacity to between $80,0«)and $70,000 a day, which would bring the annual Hollinger production to $20,000,000 or $25,000,000 worth of gold—the largest annual production of any gold mine in the world.

The famous old I. X. L. Mine one of. the free gold properties which was operated in Rossland in the early days of mining, and which is located within less than a mile of the city, continues to prove the sensation in mining in the section. ' A syndicate of local mining men took over the property a few years ago under lease from John R. Baker of Tacoma Wash., and were not long, in recovering the ore body, and what was then considered very'rlch ore was sent to the smelter netting the operators rich returns. But the latest And has climaxed everything in the way of ore heretofore taken from the old I. X. L., the lessees now having in course of preparation to the smelter at Kellogg Idaho, several tons of ore that is so high grade that it Will be sent by auto truck, the Great Northern Railway refuses to receive the ore and insure its delivery to the smelter, it is said. The last oar shipped netted the owners, eight in number, over $8,000 each. The ore at present being, mined is being found right at the mouth of the tunnel, where the first ore of any value was taken in the early days when the old I. X. L. proved the sensation of the camp. The shipment to be made soon is all sacked ore it is stated that it will average in net returns to the lessess over $40,000 to the carload. It will take two days to make the trip to Kellogg, by motor truck, and several trips will have to be made before the ore at present mined can be landed there; B.P.O.

Speoial to the Herald Price for domestic Deliveries 14 Cents-Most producers Holding at 14 1-8 Cents or out of market. Domestic buying of copper has been small, owing to unwillingness bf domestic fabricators'to pay price asked for by producers. Aside ship buying in New York for export has been in good volume, with price 18 IS to 18.96 cents and some independents still holding out for 14 cents. Sales on o. i. f. basis have been small. Most producers are holding for 141-8 cents delivered, but a good tonnage of metal is available at even money. Fabricators are unwilling to give firm bids: above 13 8-4 cents delivered, preferring to await more definite indications of price trend before making further commitments. It is believed that producers are, willing to make a determined stand at 14 cents delivered, and it is not improbable that this price may, become the bottom at which the now, buying movement is to start. This, however, must depend largely upon price attitude maintained by larger producers and their unwillingness to follow down upon smaller sellers in this condition of market when ultimate consumers are about to place orders for a fall business with fabricators, but refuse to do so untill they feel certain that bottom has been reached in price of copper. Price of electrolytic copper for domestic shipment is 14 cento a .pound delivered, with ■'] larger producers holding at 141-8 or out of the market. Prices aside ship New York is 13 7-8 to 13.05, with good business and certain independents refusing to sell under 14 cents. Price c. i. f. Hamburg or London is around 14.15 cent*, with prein hint for spot or prompt copper. ' Cornish Miners -going to Michigan A considerable number of Cornish miners are coming into the Michigan copper district from Cornwall; Twenty-nine experienced men recently arrivjed at the Copper Range Mines, coming principally from the Camborne and Redruth districts of Cornwall. They explained that there has been' a bad slump'in the Cornish tin industry, many mines having been forced to suspend operations and that unemployment is acute. Learning of the demand for labor in the Michigan copper and iron fields, a large number have decided to come to this country and the new arrivals predicted they would be followed by many more, as fast {as the immigration restractions will permit. . .
