He reports that ths engineers of the Great Northern Railway Company are making every haste in their work of surveying the branch line which is projected from Kalispel on the Great Northern to Golden on the Canadian Pacific. In the vicinity of Elko, which will be on tbe line of railway, there are over a doien en gineers at work, LARDO-DUNCAN RAILWAY. (Revelstoke Her-dd.) Monday afternoon a party of engineers in the employ of the C.P.R. left tor Argenta and will commence at once to lay out the line from that point. These gentlemen have been for some time working on tbo line out from Arrowhead but received news that brought them off post haste lo Nelson and on through to the head of Kootenay lake. The reason for all this baste could not be learned from the engineers, who had nothing to say of their movements, but when two and two are put together the reason is easily figured out. At the present time engineers of the Great Northern are locating a line through this country. The proposed line of the Great Northern runs from Argenta, along the west side of Duncan lake and Duncan river, into the Trout Lake district. Both roads now seem to be out for the business the rich Lardeau-Duncan and Trout late districts have io offer and in tbe acramble the country will benefit greatly. RheamatlstB Cured.

He says that arrangements are being made to ship from 700 to 800 tons of ore this summer from the Tangier mine at Albert Canyon. Prospects are looking very good there now, and the chances are that throughout all the Big Bend district and the country around Revel stoke there will be very busy times this year. Many prospectors are going in there all the time." W.G. Mitchell-Innes, Manager of the Golden Britiah Columbia, has not been long after his arrival from England in getting down to development work for the coming season. The Company's foreman, Tom Jones, has instructions to proceed with the development of the Vulcan, a promising copper prospect on Toby Creek near the juaotion with the Columbia and a shaft will b* begun at once and sunk to a depth of at least 40 feot.

Published by Tub Golubk Er* Co., Lto., Lt,, THE NEW GOLD- FIELD. OOLDEN THE OUTFITTING POINT. The Best Route to the Field. If any proof were wanted to mpport our contention that Golden affords the beat route for communication between the CM' R. line and the new gold-field we have it in the fact that a party of 50 men, loiue of whom know th* route thoroughly have determined to go from Golden to the new gold-field by way of the Moberly trail along the Columbia and Canoe river*. Tb* men are now iu Golden getting roa-'y to ���tait and they have 100 boraes here to compose their pack trains. It is expected that a start will be mado about tbe lOtb as it is hoped the road will be clear of snow by then am) available for access. The new gold-field will be reached in a fortnight from Golden. It is suggested that tbe Government should send a couple of men ahead to open tbe trail, clearing out any fallen trees, so that the way may be clear for the large influx of people preparing to outfit at Golden and leave for the new field. Some of the prospectors who- went in from Golden last fall, and who discovers'! the field, are expected to reach Golden in about a fortnight, and we shall then have full and reliable information as to tha prospect!. GOVERNMENT WORKS POSED. PRO. OPENING OF NAVIGATION Delayed by Low Water. On Tuesday Capt. Bacon ran the Hyak up the Columbia river as far as Carbonate with a view to starting the season's navigation. He found the water very low, and on his return was stopped by a log jam and had to leave the boat aome distance up river. At the wharf tbe guage ahowed the river lower than when navigation stopped last year, and lower than he has ever known it before. It waa hoped that the season's navigation would have been opened during the coming week, but owing to the continuation ol cold weather and tbe low state of the water it is impossible as yet to ny when the boats will open regular communication for the season with Windermere, Ur. Wells, M.P.P., will Inter, view Ministers. Mr. W. C. Wells, M.P.P,, will in- terview Ministers nt Victoria next week with a view to having the necessary public works in the district pushed on as quickly as possible. These works will include the removal of the Court House fiom Donald to Golden, Canyon creek,.

Government buildings at Windermere, repair of Government road between Golden and Canal Flat, improvement of road between railway station and boat landing at Golden and other required works. Mr. Wells will also insist on the Government putting meu on at once to clear out tbe Moberly trail between Golden and Canoe River, and to open it through on to Tete Jaune Cache On his return Mr. Well* will make a tour of the electorate to ascertain the lull requirements of hie constituents, and will visit the settlers along the Golden Fert Steele Road from Golden to Canal Flut, putting in some time at Windermere which district will merit special attention at the hands nf the Government during the coming season.

This led the minister of railways to ask where they considered the approaches began and Mr. Mulock asked If they would extend from ocean to ocean. i Judge Clarke was nut prepared to answer this question und Mr. Blulr held suell a principle was a dangerous one to lay down.

SHY AIRS HIS VIEWS ON SAVINGS IN- STITUTIONS. 1-hr Has That Owned It Died Witb * the Secret nf It. Loontlon. About half a century ugo a rich silver'vein was found on the copper iange ���onth of Houghton, and tbe silver excitement thionghont Houghton county was at fever heat. Everybody had the craze, but there wus only one man who knew the whereabouts of the vein. At the time above mentioned a trapper ngd hunter named Draper brought into Houghton a number of veiy rich silver specimens, but where they came from he never told, and the secret always remained a secret with him. He was known to be making bis borne in the vicinity of Penn mine, on the south range, with the Indians, who were very numerous in this part of the country. It was not a great while after Draper ninde this trip to Houghton that he got into trouble with the Indians, shot one of them and escaped from tbe country He returned some years later, and, tak- , ing u partner, went into the woods v again. The two remained there, coming to town for provisiona from time to time and bringing as much silver in nuggets aa they could carry When tbe **[ war broke out, Draper's partner enlisted'In the first company that left Houghton and was killed in the buttle of Bull Bun. Draper remained in the woods and died there, carrying tbe secret of the big silver find with him to the other world. A few years after Draper's death Ignatius Zeeber. who was conducting a tailoring establishment in L'Anse. having removed there from Houghton, got the silver craze and gave np his business to search for Draper's mine. During tbe 20 years that have passed since that time Zeeber, or as he is moro familiarly known to thoso who frequent tKo woods, "Silver Fritz," has remained at the Penn mine, in the vicinity of which Draper was supposed to have located the silver, but whether he has succeeded in locating tbe coveted silver mine is not known. Some think he has, but the majority who know him say ibey are positive ho has not. The old man, for he ia now about 80 years of age, is often seen by landlookers, who aay that he resembles a wild man very much, his hair and full beard being long and shaggy, his clothes old and torn Snd his person very poorly kept A stranger would not have tho nerve to pass him in the road, but to those who know him-he is ns meek as a lnuib, and all say he would injure no one. ' Besides Zeeber several parties have spent months ut a time scouring the woods, but no one has obtained even a glimpse of anything that looks like silver, nnd all gave np the linn t in disgust With the opening np of the old mines as well as many new ones on the range between Houghton and Ontonugon the question is asked, "Is it not probable that Draper's find will be discovered ?' ��� It Is a well known fact that the old Belt mine, which, together with the Penn mine, is now nnder option to Chicago capitalists, prodnced considerable silver when last worked, und it muy be that the Chicago people or those owning the land in close proximity to theirs will have the good fortune to locate what is said to be one of the richest silver veins in the country ���Detroit News.

He was given u checkbook. He checked nnd checked on that account until he finally received official notice from a deputy sheriff that the account had long been drawn down to n vacuum My friend insisted on checking on the vacuum, nnd now he ia checked for a brief stay in the state institute for gentlemen who forget that all deeds should be good and not bad. I hnvo a bank account. I went into the savings institution at the corner of Blank and streets with money in my pocket and my hand on it. I approached the receiving teller. "I'm Shy," I said in the nature of an introduction. "Then yon do not want to come aronnd hero." he responded. "Wo don't want any galoots coming in hern that can't pay tbeir way. We'ro shy enough ourselves. Why, the officers, have not raised a salary in years, and what with coal bills and pork accounts we nre always shy." I explained to the dapper gentleman with the money colored countenance that my name was Shy. ' 'Tell me something about deposits, will you!" "The bank is the safest in the city,' he commenced to warble. "Our capital stock is $1,000,000. We pny 8 per cent interest when we cannot get around doing otherwise. Every six months we figure interest on yonr smallest balance. We'll receive ns little as n dollar from an applicant, and after the books are opened with yon we'll take as much ns a thousand." "Oh, now. look herel" I returned with asperity. "I'm not going to give you a thonsaud of my hurd earned plunks right on tho spot. I've been thinking this thing over. I have exactly 151"��� "One hundred and fifty-one dollars makes a first rate start for anyone,' he interrupted. "Who said anything about dollars*' I demunded. "I was about to remark that I had 151 cents that the children had saved, and I have concluded to trust it with you. If the meney is here nt the end of a year and you pay the 11 per cent interest, as you advertise, then I may be induced to double my deposit.

It that ol the French zouaves, whose pio- turesque uniform, consisting of baggy red trousers, short, blue braided jacket', gaiters nnd closa fitting onp (a sort of fez) hai been seen In many great battles. The zouaves gain-ad their richest laurels during the Crimean war, at which time the corps, although supposed only to consist of Frenchmen, had attracted to its ranks many young men of other nations��� Lug* Ush, Scotch, Irish, Germans and Italians Many of these, no doubt, wore soldiers of fortune, anxious to servo in a body the farao of whioh was worldwide. But Franco was not to enjoy tho monopoly of a zouave corps, for some ten years later, when tho American civil war broke out, two bodies of American zouaves were formed, one by the Federals, the otlier by tho Confederates. They were uniformed muoh after the French style and gained a great reputation for dash and courage. This was particularly tho case with tho Confederate zouaves, who were known as the Louisiana Tigers. When tho French zouaves were serving In Africa, they hnd ono day to perform a long and terrible march in the blistering sun Tho chasseurs a pled, a corps of famous marchers, wore with them, but tho soldiers of both corps wero ready to sink with hunger, thirst and exhaustion. Toward evening they arrived at a town, and thu colonel of the chasseurs appealed to his men to enter the place in a style worthy of French soldiers. Tho men responded bravely, and with bugles sounding they marched in with .a light, springy step, looking as little ti possible like men who were half dead wHtfl fatigue. This was too much for ho zouaves. They had suffered, if poss. >le,. worse than the nhasseurs, but at the com-] mand of their colonel they braced themselves up and, although ready to drop, entered the town on the run, swinging their muskets round their heads, that being an evolution of the zouave drill. They had "gone ono better" than the chasseurs. nis Phraaeoloitr. "Do yon think Russia and Great Britain will disarm?" asked the Anglo- Saxon caller.

Dodd's Kidney Pills Cure Another Dundas Man. H. wa. ABIet.il with Rheumatismfor SliYear.-.AilEirorl. Failed to Believe or Our. Till he took Dodd'a Kidney Pill.. Dunlas, April 10,���-"Gentlemen." remarked Mr. William Dunn, a well- known telephone lineman, to a- group of hia f.llow-workinen, "Gentlemen. I have suffered untold agony from Rheumatism during the past tw.lv. month.. A person who ha. not felt tbe prions of thia painful malady cannot conceive the torture it inflict, upon it. victims. I could get nothing to give ra. relief. although I doctorid con.t.ntly, and took various remedial. "Then I began u.ing Dodd'a Kidney Pill., and almost immediately a tleciil* ��d change for tb. batter took place. I used, altogether, Hires boxes of Dodd'a Kidney Pill., and am happy to aay I am thoroughly curtd, You may talk of doctor, and their rnndloinu, but give mt Dodd'a Kidney Pill.," Mr. Dunn'a remarks ars In a line with the publicly-expressed assertions of t liou.anils of other grateful men and women, who hav. been cured of Rheumatism by Dodd'a Kidn.y Pills. Rheumatism is caused by Uric Add in ths blood. Uric Acid is left in ths blood by di.ea.ed kidneys, which are unable to filter it out. The only wav to cure Rheumatism, -i. to remove the Uric Acid, The only way this can bs done ia by tbs Kidneys. Ths kidneys cannot do it unless thsy are strong and healthy. Dodd's Kidney Pills make ths Kidneys strong and healthy���make them do their work properly by making them abla to do it. There oan be no Uric Add in your blood if jou uss Dodd's Kidney Pills. That is a fact that cannot bs disputed. It follows, then, that you cannot possibly have Rheumatism if you use Dodd's Kidney Pills. Try tli.m and b. oonvint.i. LOCAL AND GENERAL.
