Voung, is one of the latest publications by the department ol mines. The book is copiously illustrated by means ot photographic views and is accompanied by maps specially designed to elucidate the text, ihe descriptive matter consists of an exhaustive discussion of the conditions obtaining in the various geological provinces into which the dominion is naturally divided, covering the entire area Irom Ungava on the east to Vancou. ver Island on the wesl,and Irom Hudson's Bay and Uie Yukon on the north to the 441I1 paral- l.'l on lhe south. The geological sruvey ol Canada, under Sli Wm. Logan, which coiinned its operations lo tha soullielii pjr- tlons of Ontario and 'Jueliee, ls staled to have comiiieiii:*.-.! in 1843. Since that time • he a ork has gradually widem-1 until nt present it embraces the entire northern hall of thc lunlineni ol America. Much oi the work has as yet been ol an exploratory character so thai a larg- part ol Canada may siill be said to be practically unexplored. Nevertheless, sufficient ba:: been done to make kiuwii its chief geological leatures; also Ul roughly indicate the mineral bearing territories; to pres.'ge the nature of the mineral resources of each, and to demonstrate that Canada is destined to become one ol the great mining countries ol the world. The amount oi mineral bearing ler- ritory still awaiting the prospector in Canada, is the greatest that now remains anywhere on the globe. The total production ol minerals in Canada lor the past 23 years amounts 10 ^^26,516.579. i'he production lor the year lyuN was over JiK;,000,000. Notwithstanding the lact that the mining industries ol Canada have only just begun, the dominion already ranks well a- nioiig the miners! producing countries of the world. According to statistics of the world's production for 1407, Canada ranked lirst i-n Asbestos and Nickel, third in chroniite, fourth in silver, seventh in copper, eighth in gold, and tenth in coal.

That there is a ncccssiiv for it is shown by the lact that in one day of last week 1,900 letters were received and dispatched at the buildings, and 400 pounds b) parcel post, in the pasl 11 pan of the room occupied by the bureau ol information has bun used, but the work has been tlil- licult to carry out there. The new room specially set apart m the basement will be of the greatest convciiiciiie. Then are all the facilities for sorting llie mail with a large number of drawers so that letters may W obtained by tlic holders ol these drawers out ol regular hours.

Access was •rained by means ol prying the front doors open with a jimmy. It would appoar that the burglars committed the deed for thc specific purpose of equipping an arsenal on their own account, for they passed by mnch more valuable goods of smaller bulk, and made straight ior the gun rack, where they helped themselves to four shot guns and three rilles, the largest and the best in the stock. They then patronized thc amunition boxes and appropriated thc entire stock corresponding to the 8m- arms, alter which they took their departure, leaving thc remaining stock, otherwise undisturbed. From thc store they proceeded lo P. Larson's boat house, which tliey broke into, and stole a row boat, by means of which they effected their getaway. The police have not yet succeeded 111 making any arrests although they have satisfied themselves that the deed was perpetrated by two members ol the band that has been operating at Hastings. On the night previous to the robbery, these two men were seen by two, parties, engaged in close consultation under the trees at the eastern end of Larson's grounds and from, photographs in possession of the police, they have been recognized as members of this gang, for whom the police havo been seeking. The value oi thc booty in this instance was upwards of $200.
