The Little Cariboo Hold Mining Company jhns lieen registered in the provini e uiuler the Companies Act 18117. The head office of the company is in Spokane, uinl headquarters iii this province at Camp McKinney, with Thomas Donald manager. The Little Cariboo is capitalised at $l<lO,IKXI divided into I .IM 1.1'Hi shares ofa par value of 10 cents. et. The Fontenoy. A conipnny has been formed in Victoria to take over the Fontenoy claim in Camp McKinney. wliieh elaini was recently sold by Mr. II. Cameron* to Spokane parties. The new company is capitalized at 91,000,000 in shares of $1 ench, and it is expressly stipulated that the liability is' non-personal. As soon ns arrangements can be* made work will start on the property, and ns the company have goml men behind it. no doubt development will be pushed with vigor. The parly who engineered the formation of the company is Mr. P. J. Hickey, nnd the good bucking the company Inns, is represented by the fact that, such nien as Messrs. .1. Dunsmuir, C. E.

Judging fnun the evidence adduced nt a I oroner's ini)uesl neid at Cascade City on the 21th of I-'eliy il would seem that a foul murder was committed a few miles froni Cascade City, on the wagon road leading from there to Brooklyn, about two months ago. the evidence of which was-however only discovered a few days since. Tin' murdered man wn.s an Italian Pembroke, , interest, S, C. Richards named Donnato Cassato. When lasl seen alive, tlie deceased I was passed on tho wagon mad ou his ' wa\ to Gladstone, by a man by the name ol Tick Lninaiiii.i. 'that was on or about tlie Tlli of January. As the deceased was known to be making preparation for leaving the country for Iiis home in Italy, it is supposed the murder was committed for the purpose of robbery. From the oppcaraneeof the deceased when found iu the snow a few feet from I he road, it would seem that his assailant must have used a heavy and sharp instrument, as on the right side of the head there wns a fearful cut, in a position to suggest that the blow was delivered from behind, while the thumb ot the right baud was nearly severed indicating that the wound j was receiyid while trying to ward off j a blow. Another hea\ y cut under the I chin on the left side of the throat was enough to complele one of the must foul crimes that bus been committed in I the province for many a day. The authorities have the matter in hand ' and it is to be hoped the perpetrator of the deed will be brought to justice. to Jno. A. Douglas Baltimore, all luterest, Murdock D. McLeod to \V. II.

A.J.Colquhoun, writing in the Kamloops Sentinel, gives the following lucid explanation of the treatment which, shoulil be pursued to get the best results out of ench of a variety of ores. He says : Miners frequently find difficulty in deciding which is the correct process adapted to the treament of the different ores they may come iu contact witli. This is a vital point on which Uie future of many a property is decided, so that the following data embracing the recognized methods of treatment may be worth noting : If free gold can be panned out and no sulphiirel.s exist -stamp mill or free gold milling. Should sulphurets also be found in Combination with free gold, pan out and separate the free gold and if tiie sulphurets assay sufficiently well to deserve treatment after, then this would require free gold milling, with concentrators for tailings, and treatment of concentrates by smelting, chlorination or cyauidatlou. In tin case of free gold in small quantities, iml sulphurets carrying high in silver, roasting and milling, or lice gold milling concentrators and smelting ; or copper plates, concentrators and pans, Silver ores and th mposed silver vein outcrops—free silver milling Silver ores containing part decomposed and pari silver bearing sulphurets would require free silver milling, vanners and smelting, or, if Ihe ore is high grade, careful roasting .ind milling- , lei , , Low grade silver ores containg-gray the dlstriot are already pretty we copper, tclluriiles, ruby, brittle, or ' ' ' native silver would be treated by tine -♦-#-*- No Thank You. The Rossland Record says : "Call the Kootenays, Bouudary, Cariboo and Yale the liosslnnil district. It will prove popular with outside camps, lie* cause if they are iu the Hossland districl they will the more easily attract nlleiilion and capital. "it is not uncommon to hear a man say,'If niy property was iu the Rossland districl I could lind 11 ready sale for if, at ten times the price I ask for it.'nnd thnl is true. Let us have just one big Rossland district." It is very kind indeed of the Record, but the people of Boundary Creek prefer tlmt this district should stand on its own merits, nnd if allowed to do so, the Record and the people of Rossland need not worry that it will not secure its share of patronage from the investing public. In fact liy the wny money is pouring into the district from Montreal, Toronto aud other moneyed cell* it looks as if the capabilities of concentrating and smelting.

Only recently Mr, Cameron sold his Fontenoy claim for the sum of .$20,111(1 and now it is said $20,000 is the consideration he is to receive for his second holding. The, Vernon is a south extension of the Fontenoy, loeated directly in line with that claim, so that the hig ledge of heavy sulphide ore existing iu the Fontenoy runs through the Vernon ground. The parties who negotiated the Fontenoy deal arc behind the present one, so it is safe to conjecture that the Ver non'will find its wny Into good hands, with hacking and capital enough to thoroughly develop the property. THE CORBIN OHAKTFR. Strange to say, mure interesl. is being taken in tlie Cochin Charter for the Kettle River Valley Kailway ou the outside than is now manifested by the people of Bounday Creek, for although the project has of course the passive support of the residents of this section, no active stops are being taken to show the government at Ottawa that a great injustice was done Boundary Creek when at the last session of parliament tlie charter was disallowed, Tlie most striking instance of activity comes from Winnipeg, where the Board of Traoe of that city a few days ago passed the following resolution : "Tlmt whereas this board at the time of the disallowance of the Manitoba railway charters took strong grounds against such action and inter* ierence, and advocated freedom in railway building, and opposed interference .from outside in the purely local affairs of the province ; and whereas this railway, is local to the province ol British Columbia: This board considers that it should not in auy way interfere to prevent the fullest and most free development of that province by opposing the free railway intercourse of that province with adjoining states and provinces at whatever point may be found advantageous to the snid piovince. Therefore this board desires to be placed on record aa strongly in favor of granting a charter to this railway, particularly as it is proposed to nuild the road without any aid trom the public' «.— A WARNING. Mr. W. F. Brougham, writing to the Nelson Miner, calls attention to a section of a provincial statute the Game Protection Act of 181)'), which provides —inter alia— against the '-capture ol trout" by any "device other than hook aud line." in this statute the general term "trout" is used—no particular species being mentioned as in the Dominion Fishcriis Regulations—so it may he presumed that the term will include "Salmo-purpiiratiis." Now ".Salino-purpuratus" is the lake trout known locally ius the "Kikaiicc" or kokanee, and therefore wilh other species of trout, comes under tiie pro x ision of the Game Aot. As in tiie past it has been customary for Indians and settlers living near the shores of our big lakes nml along the streams which empty into them, and this applies particularly to lhe beautiful sheet of water, the Okanagan lake, to capture other than by hook and line immense quantities of kik- ances every fall, when the lish came out of the lake and aseendcillhesl renins to spawn, it will he well for them in understand that a law is now in existence wliieh distinctly prohibits the taking ef these fish other than by the means specified, at a time when they arc answering tlie call of nature, and are endeavoring to perpetuate theirspecics by ascending the streams to spawn. The warning is given, let those who read paws the word along. * lhe Appropriations.

Tho failure of thp British to oupfcuue the Khalifa when they destroyed Iiis army in the battle before Oiiiiliinniui, is responsible for latest revelations which tend to show that his power is not by any incatm broken, He is ercdited with being again in the Held with "an army of from 15,<XK) to itU.OOO men and gradually making his way back to the old battle ground, where it is evidently his purpose to again try conclusions with those who so recently defeated him. Although the British do not consider him formidable yet are they making preparations to meet him bv amassing a considerable force at Ondurmdn, detachments of British troops being drawn from lower Egypt for the purpose, ►♦•* To Republic. It looks very much as if the Great Northern contemplate putting a line of railway into Republic ramp in the very near future judging by the statement made liy the Spokesman Review a few days ago which said : News comes that parties of surveyors are at work on siiowshnes through Stevens county, evidently projecting a line for the Spokane Falls & Northern, now a part of the Great Northern system. The party left the Spokane Falls „ Northern at Springdalc and worked to Cleveland camp, about twelve miles, and thence to Cedar canyon, where it now is. The party is working towards Fruitlands and will probably cross the Columbia at aliout that point and take some route not yet determined to Republic. The movement seems to indicate that the Great Northern, despite the pessimistic utterances of President Hill mi his visit here, is disponed to reach out for Republic trade. G. X. Simpson, Prop. 8. A.

H. WEBB, Midway-Penticton Railway. A very important measure to the Boundary Oreek district, is that just introduced into the legislature which provides for a bonus of tjil.tKH) per mile to be granted to any corporation building a railway between Midway and Penticton. Former legislation provided similar encouragement to railway construction lietween the above points, with a stipulation Unit construction should Iki completed by August of tbe present year. A few days ago this legislation was recinded by the government as the parties for whose benelit it was passed failed to act up to its requirements, Following nre the stipulations of the present bill : 1. Tbis Act may liecitedas the "Mid- wiiy-Penticton Railway Subsidy Act, imt. 2. There is hereby granted for and in aid of the construction of a standard gauge railway from a point at or near Midway to a point at or near Penticton or some other point on Lake Okanagan, approximately one hundred miles in length, a sum not exceeding four thousand dollars per mile. 8j The Lieutenant-Governor in Council may enter into any agreement with any person or conipany undertaking the construction of such railway for the due construction and operation of audi railway. 4. Said subsidy shall not be payable until the railway is completed and in running order to the satisfaction of the Lieutenant-Governor in Council, nor until security or guarantees satisfactory to the Lieutenant-Governor iu Council is or are given for the continuous maintenance and operation of tlie railway, 5. in case said subsidy is granted to a railway company entitled to a land grant for the construction of such line, tbe same shall only be payable in euse said company abaml ins its claim to sueli land grant. fl. No Chinese or Japanese person shall be employed or permitted to work in the construction or operation of any railway subsidised undei this Act, under ii penalty of live dollara per day for each and every Chinese or Japanese person so employed in contravention of this section, to be recovered on complaint of any person, under the provisions ol the "Siiniiiiiu'v Convictions Act." V, The Lieutenant-Governor In Council iiuiy incorporate nny number of persons ne a railway company for the purpose of constructing anil operating such railway and receiving such subsidy, nnd any provision contained in any railway charti r passed during the pn sent session of the Legislative Assembly may be applied to such company. Such company shall be subject to the "Hritish Columbia Railway Act." H. Snid subsidy shall not Jie given to any railway conipany not under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Province of Hritish Coliiniliia, "--j*****-. Practical ^_-s* WAGON AHD CARRIAGE BUILDER.

Much success attended the flotation of the Wiarton claim in Camp McKinney, as recently when 200,(100 shares of stock of tbe company owning this claim was put upon the market at 15 cents in Spokane, it was so readily bought up the company at once raised the price to 20 cents. It wiw promoters stock which was sold and from the sale of which the company derive $10,000, which sum will he spent in development work, wbich has already been commenced under the superintendence of Mr. 0. A. Wing late of tbe Athabasca mine near Nelson. Tbe treasury shares of the euinpaiiy hnve not as yet been offered. The Wiarton is a favorite with investors, owing to the fact that it is situated between the Waterloo and the properties of the Caritaio company, and has therefore a chance of securing either or both, or providing the Waterloo vein is an exteiition of that found on the Cariboo, than the Cariboo vein, somewhere within its confines. As above stated work is now proceeding on tbe property, anil it is evident tin management expect to disclose the Waterloo vein, as attention is being paid to the Wiarton at a point just west of the Waterloo west shaft. Open surface crosscuts are beiug made in wash, and as soon as the vein is met witb sinking will take place. » On the Klondike. According to English newspapers to baud by the last mail, very much interest has been created by the let-lure which Miss Flora L, Shaw,special correspondent for The Times, London (ting,) hus delivered liefore the Royal Colonial Institute, upon "The Klondike." According to the reports Miss Shaw has nothing hul gond to say of tbat marvelous country. She believes after careful investigation into the best technical data available, that it will take fifty years to work out the alluvial gold'i.lmt is already in sight, and it is scarcely conceivable that in sneh a period the quartz veins wbich every one is seeking will not he found and furtber'developinents opened up. "Imagine," said the lecturer, "this great, district thrown fully open; hydraulic in ichinery everywhere at work upon the gold-hearing streams; the mountains tested for low grade gold- bearing rocks ; the silver, the nickel, and the copper, which are known to exist, brought forth ; the coal, the gas and the petroleum hearing bed a of tbe Mackenzie district, of wbich the foundational tar sands have la-en ah-eady shown to stretch hundreds of square miles, developed; no less tbat tbe agricultural and pastoral imssihilities," (which she considers greater than any one else has yet ventured to predict), "aud try then to think of the needs and the activities of the hardy northern population that will In; burn and bled upon the land." This and much more did tbe lecturer say. m-—- A Strange View. Tbe Toronto Telegram discussing the result of the labors of the High Joint Commission says : "Wilfrid Laurier returning from Washington without a treaty will he welcomed by his own followers with more enthusiasm than could Ihi awakened by the best-sort of treaty which he could ring from the grip of American diplomats. Failure is, from u political standpoint, more useful to the I.ilieral party than any success which Hit- Wilfrid could achieve at Washington. "It would he hard for the Conserve lives to make much political capital out of the failure, which Sir Wilfrid can explain by tbe hoaat that he is too much of a Canadian to purchase a treaty by the sacrifice of his country's rights. "11* Canada's representatives emerge from the negotiations without any sort of a treaty, a large sigh of relief will go up from Canadians generally, and particularly from tbe rank and fill- of the Liberal party." This is a strange hut quite characteristic view lor the Telegram to take, and evidently tbe writer in that journal thinks it impossible a reasonable agreement can Ih' arrived at between the two countries on the questions so Important to each. Party considerations are given loo much prominence in the views expressed by the ahove journal, and if would do (letter did it encourage the adoption ofa resolution hy the statesmen of both countries to leave-nothing undone to, at as early a date as possihle, settle the difficulties existing between such close neighbors iiii Cinadii and the United State. Hume day these questions must la- settled and thc sooner the batter, r-m-.vi_-.vv - hutel t&i iiouvl Commercial and Mining men should put Mr at the Fairview Hotel when in camp.

Upon these claims is to be found one of the finest ledges of ore. yet discovered in the district, for although the vein is only about five feet wide yet can the ore be classed ns shipping, as 18 inches along the foot wall runs $40U, Uie ton and the balance of the vein $18 to the ton in all values.

Drifting to the middle pledge on the property, a few days ago a fine strike was made on the Stemwinder in Fair- view camp, a body of almost solid mineral having been met with. This being upon the lowest level, the strike, if the ore carries good value, is an important one for the property and the camp. Very encouraging results have attended recent development work in this mine, and it looks id present as if the Stemwinder will yet turn out to be a good dividend payer, ll is earnestly to be hoped that such will be the case. . »-•-< CAMP HcKINNEY NOTES. (From our own correnpondenU) A "boom" has decidely struck Camp McKinney, three feet of snow nils "no ice" or does not stop the enterprising expert from examining, more or less (very much the lalfler) bonding or buying the many good things now offered for sale. It is an indisputable fuel t hat anyone owning a claim or a fraction of one anywhere in the vicinity of the Cariboo ledge enn sell for Isome price, Tlie sale of the Fontenoy this week has undoubtedly caused increased attention to the camp, the proporty having passed into the bunds of n wealthy Victoria syndicate financed by the Dunsmuirs. The Vernon, the extension of the Fontenoy has also been bonded for the same amount as that claim, and this fortunate miner Mr. Hugh Cameron is to Ih- heartily congratulated on having consummated one of the biggest dl-nls in camp, and ths wish of his many friends is that lie may live long to enjoy the fruits of his many years patient waiting. Five men under Supt. Wing are erossciitting the Wiarton close to the Waterloo line, It is too early yet to form any opinion as to the width of the vein, but the work is being done in a very favorable spot, where the croppings show. Supt, Dnrragh with a gang of men are also erossciitting the vein on the O'Shea and he informed me that he was getting some very good looking ore and has further discovered another vein on the clnim. The tunnel on the Wnttiltio is making good progress the ore body being good, but no startling developments can be looked for on this property till the arrival of the hoist, when the shaft will be sunk another UK) feet. Supt Tom Donald has four men working on the Shannon and Dolplitn, two driving the 80-foot tunnel towards tilling ledge, while the others have uncovered a very good looking cross ledge below the shall. This properly is likely to prove one of the good things of tbe cam]). Work on the Little Cariboo is progressing satisfactorily though the water in increasing somewhat in the shaft. On the Minnehaha the contractors are busy sinking the shaft to Ine 3*0-1*1. level. I regret to say the genial Nupt, Major Megraw bus been laid up with la grippe, lie is now slowly recovering.

A " is it vein alwnt 20 incite.*1 wide.Jwitli n pay-streak of 4 to 12 inches; from Inis 8,058 Ihs. of ore wns shipped to Ihe smelter, giving $108.15 gold per ton, silver 74 7*10 ozs., and 2 per cent. lead. A tunnel is heing driven on this vein from which ore is lieing taken. On the same property is a larger vein (quartz) currying galena and pyrites. • The " G. A. K." bas a 30-fool shaft sunk on a 2-foot vein, heavily mineralized wilh an intimate mixture of iron and copper pyrites, galena, blende and silverglance. Theflnest pieces of wiresil- vei'found oiiBoiindaryOeck were taken from this shaft. Average assays from different places across the vein gave $8.00 gold, 50 til's, silver; also IjSK.OO guld and ISO ozs, silver mul one, the latest return—$15.05 gold and WW 4-5 ozs. silver per ton. On the "Big Ledge" is a 10-foot quartz vein, mineralized with itou pyrites. This vein has been opened up by cross-cut son the surface fcr 500 feet. A narrower vein bas heen opened up, being one foot wide, carrying considerable copper pyritm, and runs into the main ledge as a spur, on wbich a tunnel of 40 feet has been driven. Average assays gave $83 gold and 11-10 ozs. silver, ami $4«l.:t5 gold 17J ozs. silver, 2 pel cent, copper The "O. By haa two distinct veins one 25 feet wide which, from its strike and general character would seem to be the same vein as that on the Big Ledge, although sufficient has nol heen done to make this conclusive. The 'wound vein has at. present a width of nearly thiee feel. Assays have shown values in gold from $4.00 to $170.5!i,^while a conservative sampling by Mr. S. S. Fowler, M. B. guye $20.00 in gold. The "8. F." lies letweed the «. A. R nnd I). A., in the direction ol the strike on the G. A. K. vein. This location has pen made on a vein of pyrrbolite. On'the"S. II. B." are twn t-onverg- ingiveins of cupper and iron pyrites, oir which work is now being dune. An average assay gave, gold $1.50, silver lflff"o**»., copper 11.86 per cent., or $10.41 fnr all values. The "Freil IV was located in De ceinliei',11805, more as ground for a basis for mining operations for the other claims than for its present value, although there is little doubt that the large vein on theO. B. runs through it. There is » small vein of galena ou thisclai n. The ".T. A. <!." has a large iron- rapping running through it from the Anaeondi, at a depth of a few feet., lhe ore carries a considerable percent age of of copper and $10 iu gold.
