VI, Tenth Year The Two Roads Now Building Insure Great Activity ANENT_.IGHTHOUI.LAW Mr. Smith Curtis' MiE-Statements Rectified-���How a Saw Kill Beached Dunoan Oity. ���n,- Mr. Q. O. Buchanan, of Kaslo. spent yesterday in tho city. Sir. Buchanan reports tbo outlook for the Upper Kootenny as very bright for ensuing y.'iirs. In conversation with a Miner representative he said: ��� "The Duncan River country is going to be a woutlerfully productive section, bh is evidenced by the im- nii'iifio amount of activity throughout tlm whole region. There aro lurge on; IioiHhs in many places opened sufficiently to show their permanence, and hundreds of valuable claims with enough work done on them to prove that they are shippers in the future. At the present time the shipping facilities aro limited, but that is being remedied as fnst as money and men oan do it. Two ines of railway, viz: The Kaslo, Lardo & Duncan River road nud tbe Canadian Pacific Railroad are building from Lake Kootenay into the h?_rfc-qf thu country. The Kaslo, Lardo & Duncan Kiver road commences at Argenta and runs up the enst bink ol the Duncan river and the O'lnadioU Faoifio Railroad starts at Lardo and runs up the west bank of the Duncan until it reaches Dimcav City, where it crosses tho river nud lunches Upper Kootenay Lake. From ilin lake the Canadian Pncifio Railroad runs un the right bank of the Lardo river for somo miles and then crosses the river and runs up the left bank for Trout L:ike. The Kaslo, Lardo & Duncan Kiver road, after touching Upper Kootenay Lake follows the sarao route to Trout Luke. The country and climate is such that work on these roads ni'Od not be stopped on account of winter, and the roads will bo pushed right along until completed. Tho piling for the K. L _.. D. nad across the head of the Duncan whence it emerges from Upper Kootenay Lake, is all driven, and the bridge brew are at work. The piling is all driven for large and com- iiinilius wharfs on the lake front for, both railroads. "The Duncan River, which for two weeks wns so low that boats could not get up t,has risen,and now the steamer Marion is making regular trips from Knslo to Duncan City. Mr. Roy, the Dominion Government Engineer, has visited the Duncan river lately and recommended an appropriation he allowed fur this year of three thousand d'llllnrs, fo- the purpose of improving the navigation of the river. This is the fourth appropriation for thu same purpose andshonld be made annually until the river is in a perfect condition for navigating. "The Bannookbum mine of the Ban- nookbum group, above Duncan City, is looking extremely well This is considered very valuable property, and was sold last winter to the present owners, the Bannookbum Mining Company, for $20,000. Tho Lodo Star Mining Compnay, whose property is close to the Bannnckbnrn, are doing a great deal of deal of development work and are busily engaged nt present putting in timbor nnd supplies for tho winter." Mr. Buchanan now has, iu addition to his mills at Knslo, a new saw mill in Duncan City. He took quite a novel and picturesque procedure to got it there. The whole mill, machinery, frames, pulleys, wheels, gig back, etc., was loaded on a big barge at Kaslo nud by steamor towed from there to the mouth of the Duncan river. From the mourn uj the river Mr. Buchauan towed i11,. barge up the river by hand. He used two lines of about 2(100 feet length, One lJ_-inoh ana one 1-inch thick. Inch by inch, foot by foot, tho heavy barge was hauled up the swift current of the river. II rook sixteen men and two weeks of lime to land the mill at Duncan City. It is now in operation with a capacity of 20,000 feet per day, Mr. Buobanan in .peaking respecting the Bight-Hour law said that he noticed thnt Mr. Suiith-CurtiBS had staled that the Memorial prepared hy tha committee of the Boards of Trade to the Provincial Government regarding the Eight-Hour law, did not represent the true feeling or spirit of the Boards of Trade in meeting assembled, but rather was the personal expression of the members of the committee. That is entirely wrong. The Eight- Hour law was very fully discussed at that meeting, in fact more than any thing else, nnd although the committee was appointed on the last night of tho meeting, it was not done hurriedly or in haste. As a member of that meeting, I know thnt the sentiment of the Boards of was just exactly that ex- pri sserl by the Memorial, and that it was understood by everyone when tho committee was appointed,that such a memorial would emanate from its members. If any other throe members of the Boards had heen appointed, the result would have been just the same. It is folly to speak any other way for tho sentiment of lhe Boards was clearly expressed in that Memorial without a dissenting voice. If any opposition ro such n Memorial hnd existed among any of the members it would have been known, for everything em ��� bodied in it was fully discussed beforehand. Everyono present knew the attitude of the gentlemen appointed and tbe fact that they were appointed shows that the feelings of the Boards was harmony with tbem." THE CLIMAX REACHED. Chicago. Ill , Sept. 18.���The difficulties between the labor unions and the committee on arrangements of the Chicago Fall Festival, reached a climax today when instructions were issued from Festival headquarters suspending all propartious for the celebration. NOT A CANDIDATE. Detroit, Mich., Sept. 18���Geu. R. A. Alger today gave out a letter in which he announced his withdrawal from the candidacy for United States Senator. His reason for this determi nation, he says, is personal and of a business nature. KRITISH COLUMBIA'S OPPORTUNITY. The British Columbia Review, of Loudon, Eng., iu its issue of Sept. 2nd, says in a leading article reviewing the Transvaal situation: "If the investor loses confidence in South Africa, he will,we think, turn to.Australia or Canada. The possibilities of British Columbia are recognized -if they are not fully understood. Canada is beyond the realm of strife; the capital invested therein continues to develop a wonderful country, whioh. in ooorae of time, will return a hundred fold probably for every dollar invested. These are facts the investor considers when his capital is menaced or depreciated by a nation whose ignorance and dnpicitv are their chief political weapons. War in the Transvaal, should it unfortunately result, must be a decided gain to Anglo-Canadian enterprise." The B. C. Review never fails to put In a good word for B.C , and it is to be hoped that its present predio tions may come true, war or no war. EARTHQUAKE AT SKAGWAY. Victoria, B. G, Sept. 18.- The steamer Alpha, which completed a quick trip from the north last evening, lnings news of another earthquake at Skagway. It was on the 10th of Sop tember and then were several distinot shocks. Tho disturbance wns felt as far inland as the Atlin district, and there were several distinct shocks. MANAGER ARRESTED. Victoria, B. C, Sept. 18.-T. J. Jones, manager of the Great Western Mining Company, was arrested on his way up tbe Yukon and returned to Dawson to answer to the charge of attempting to defraud his creditors. Some three thousand dollars is the amount involved. HEAVY LIABILITIES. London, Sept.-It is said that the account of Mr. Barry included heavy commitments of Canadian Pacific, American railroads, West Australians nnd Kaffirs, on the Stock Exohange, his liabilities are estimated at ��50,000. FRENCH CONSPIRATORS when M. Derouledo made_his notorious mijmw nil/P IJllffllT nttHn.pt nn the Place de la Nation to flrl]"flV_. 1 IlUll" SAND DOLUS FALL The French President and Senate Sitting as a High Court. THE PRESIDENT HAED OF HEARING. The Rightest and the Leftest Having a Fierce Time. The Prisoners Well Cared for.���Oost Not to Exceed 300,000 Francs. Pans, Sept. 18.���The Senare met a a High Oourt of Justice today at 2 p. in. for the purpose ot trying 22 politicians, including M. Deroulede, Maroill Haebens, Baron de Vaux and Jules Guerin.on charge of conspiring against tbe Government. Procurator General Barnard read the long indictment, which lasted from 2:25 p. in. till 3:40 p m. when tho Senate entered into secret session to discuss the indictment and determine the questions relating to the preliminary inquiry,whioh is to be ordered. Senate will probably reassemble nbout 6 p. in. and announce its decisions. It will then adjourn until tho conclusion of the inqnirv, perhaps a month hence. Pans, Sept. 18.���The pubic and press galleries were crowded by t :45 p. in and the Senator's places were filled u few minutes before 2 p. m. Then the roll of the drum was heard in the distance anounoing that President Fal- lierereB, accompanied by the Senatorial officers, was approaching. M. Falli- ereres entered, and bowing to the two officers, who. naked sword in hand, stood on tho right of the Chamber, had escorted him through the corridors of the palace to the Chamber, proceeded to the pi .tform took his seat behind the table in the center of the platform. Tho President presented a dignified figure. He has a fine head, _ grizzly beard and wbb attired in evening dress; behind hira were grouped ushers and other officers of tbe Senate in evening dress, wenring their silver chains of office. On the table at the President's right hand was a big brass baud bell, which, however, he had no occasion to use todny. A sharp tapping of his little mallet snsfficiiug to restore silence when laughter which greeted somo passages of M. Bernard's indictment grew too boisterous. Not one of the accused was present or in the nalace today bur nine cells hnve been fitted up for them iu the library. They are very comfortably furnished. Tho floor is covered with linoleum and the wal's are hung with greenish cloth. The furniture consists of an iron bedstead, an easy chair, a marble topped toilet rable, a cuspidor and a rug. Thus the prisoners will have littlo to complain of uud may congratulate themselves that times have changed since the Girondens were confined in the palace of the Senate by Robespierre during tbe Reign of Terror and languished in dungeons. President Fallioreres opened the proceedings amid general silence, by reading the decree of President of the Repoblic, constituting the Sennte on the report of tho Minister of Justice into a High Court to try the charge against the aoousod of making an attempt on tbe security of the state. M. Fnlliertres then declared the Senate opened and the clerk called the roll nf the Senators who answered with the word "present. " There was momen tary exoitemont when M. Falliereres concluded reading the President's despatch. A Rightist Senator, M. L. ( Marsolle, began to speak and M. Faln- oreres said sharply: "I cannot hear you." La Marsolle insisted and M. Falliereres again said : "I cannot hoar you," aud the Leftists shouted: "Order, order." A Rightist Senator, Mi Provost de Lannay, thereupou cried, pointing to the Leftists, "There aro our judges. " At this there was a general shout of "Oh!" and "silence,"' from the Leftists and galleries. M. Falliereres. however, with a rnpping of his mallet quickly restired order. The leading absentees when the roll wns called, were M.Constans, Schenrer- Kestner and Mercier. Then, tho door through which M. Falliereres entered, wns again opened wide, and three tall figures, in long soarlet robes, appeared ou tbe threshold and with stately mien, marching in the hall and ascending the steps of the plntform. took their places on the right hand of the Presidcnr. The first was M. Bernard, the Procurator General, and the others were substitutes. M. Bernard immediately began to review the indictment in a monotonous voice. The indictment commenced by reciting the facts of the arrest of M. Deroulede and Mariol-Habert, and said the inquiry had shown the existence of a conspiracy to change the form of government, to which the disorders of last Febiuary, it was added, were due, nnd in which M. Deroulede, Mariol- Habert and some members of the League of Patriots, M. Gnerin, aud some other members of the Anti-Sem itio yotrtn, M. Boufet, Godefroi, and Shevilly and members of the Royalist party claimed has joined the insurrection organization where are aioi'iated Nationalists, Royalists and Imperialists Lenguo aud theauti-Semetie youth has, as a mission, tbe propaganda in the provinces of the revolutionary movement. M. Du Bnc, it was further charged, is the link between the uu ti Semite and Patriot leagues. Tne indictment then gave a few par ticulars of the provincial organization. Referring to the Royalists' League, it was worthy of attention, though the idea of a monarchic restoration appeared inconceivable, it had played a pre ponderant role in the recent events. Its leader being tho Duke of Orleans himself and its managers his accredited representntivs. All the leagues it was asserted seek to, chango the form of government by street risings. A letter from the Duke of Orleans to his representative, M. Buffet, written from Marienbad, July, 1896', instructing him to commence a Royalist organization was read, aud then other secrots in which it stipulated that the sum to be spent was not to exceed 800,000 francs. The mention of this figure evoked laughter from the Senators; "800,000 francs would be a heap, was a remark heard from the gallery. M. Falliereres tapped for silence and M. Bernard continued to review the Royalist agi tatiou at the end of 181)11, showing that the' buffet, Oot 24, nnd Oct. 20 telegraphed in code to the Duko of Orleans, who was in Bohemia, to como tn lhe frontier Oct. 25, that being 'ho date of the anti-Somite and Royalist disturb anco on the Pluce de la Concord. Ou Dec. 12 there was further dis order, a mob marching to the Cherohe Midi Prison, crying, "Vive le Due D'Orleans." The police stopped tbe mob, but M. Chevilly wired to the Duke of Orleans: "Success destime 2,000 demonstrations; police stopped them, but will recommen e. " This Royalist outing, it appears, aronsod the jealousy of other parties aud M. Buffet wired to tho Duke of Orlenns that he feared the Bonupart ists were also contemplating action. Tho indictment proceeded with recapitulation of the Royalists demon strations and declared the Royalists led and paid a mob tn insult. President Lonbet on the day of his election. Let ters seized at the residence of M. Che villy, showed that the funds were be coming exhausted by February, IHDI), and promises of money, mostly frnm ladies, was found in the correspondence. The culminatory point of tho Royalist conspiracy was reaohed Februnry 2' induce a brigade of infantry to maroh on Elysee Palace. Evaiything, it seem-1 ������, was ptepared to cany out the Hoy- j alist plan Unit day, but M. Deroulede's failure snoilt nil, and the Duke of Or- | leans, who was waiting at Brussels ] lhe signal to come lo Paris, received Instead a telegram from M. Buffet, saying: "Useless to oon farther news tomorrow of Orleans then wanted to go farther away, and the fact that the Roynlisls wished to carry out their conspiracy it possible was shown in a telegram which M. Buffet sent him begging him to remain, as "the Government did not know what to do with M. Deroulede." At the conclusion of the reading of the indietiiienr, M. Bernard and his colleagues left the Senato and M. Falliereres ordered Senators to sit behind closed doors. The Senate at 7 p. m. was still deliberating. It was then understood the Senators had agreed to grant the application that the prisoners be represented before the parliamentary enquiry by counsel. This was a poiut the prisoners considered a most important one to them. The Senators then discussed whether they were competent to sit us a High Court and try the case. ������; semi vou Very Nearly Caused Severe " The Duke J Loss oi Life- REPLY TO MR. CHAMBERLAIN.

The Government is buying horses freely today." Pretoria, Sept. 18.���Tho reply of the Government of the South African republio to the latest despatch dated Sept. 12, of the British Secretary of State for the Colonies, Mr. Jos. Chamberlain, after acknowledging tho receipt of the British note, proceeds in part as follows: "The Government deeply regrets the withdrawal, as the Government understands it, of the invitation contained in the British despatch of August 28rd, and the substitution in the place thereof of au eutirely new proposnl. The proposals now fallen through, contained in the Transvaal despatches of August 19 and August 21, were elicited from this Government by suggestions made by the British diplomatic agent in Pretoria, which this Governmeut acted upou in good faith, and after specially ascertaining whether they would be likely ro prove acceptable to the British Government bad by no means au intention to raise again ueedlessly the question of political status, but acted with the sole object of endeavoring, by the aid of tho local British agent, to put an eud to the strained condition of affairs. This was done in the shape of a proposal which this Government seems loth as regards its spirit and form, to bo so worded as, relying upon intimations to this Government wonld satisfy Her Majesty's Government. "As regards the joint commission, the Transvaal acceptance of the invitation thereunto given by Her Majesty's Government, and cannot uudorstand why such commission should now bn deemed unnecessary and why it should now, without -111011 Inquiry, be thought possible to declare this Inw inadequate. "Furthei, there must be a misapprehension, if it he assumed thut tbis Government was prepared to lay proposals for a five years' franchise and a quarter representation of the now population befoio the Vnlkraad for unconditional acceptance nn to the language. This Government never made auy offers such as is referred to, considering, as it did, such a nienscro both unnecessary aud undesirable. 'This Government ardently desires nnd gladly accepts arbitration, as its firm intention is tondheie to the terms of the Londou convention of 1884." Tho despatch concludes by trusting that tho British Government on reconsideration may not deem it lit to make more genorous or new proposals for a joint commission of enquiry us previously explained by tbe Secretary of State for the Colonies to tho Imperial Parliament, The reply concludes: "If Her Majesty's Government is willing,and feels able to make this decision a joint commission would pat 1111 end lo the present tension. Rnce hatred would decrease anil die out, and the prosperity and welfare of tho South African Kepublie and the whole of South Africa will bo developed and furthered and fraternization between the diTorunt nationalities will increase. '' A FOUR STORY BUILDING An Importing Structure of Montreal Collapsed.���Very Great ��_oitmoiit Manifested. Montreal, Qua, Sept. 18.���At o'clock this evening the southeast corner of Queen Theutre building, 111 which was located \V. H. Scroggie's big retail drygoods store fell in. Ten minutes later when the congregation of Christ's Church cathedral adjoining would have been dismissed there might have been loss of life. The building fell gradually and warning was given the few people on tbe street at the time, so that no one was injured. The building was an imposiug ono occupying a whole fronting on St. Catherine street between University and Victoria streets, and was four stories in height. On an upper floor adjoining the Scrog- gie establishment is situated the Queen's Theatre. The building is un old fashioned one, and this spring tho Scroggie firm, which started business in the corner store and in the expansion of business took in four stores adjoining up to the theatre entrance, put iu a modern front and remodelled their end of the building. The repairs had only been completed a short time. This afternoon at five, rho watchman employed iu the building heard ominous sounds und immediately notified the agent of the Oglvie estate, which owns the building. When he arrived there was no sign of anything beiug wrong and the sounds had ceased. It was not until 8 o'clock when they began once more. People passing along the street heard one or two dull reports and then a shower of plate glass fell out on the sidewalk. Everybody in Ihe vicinity got ont of the way, and as they did so the wall fronting on St. Catherine street slowly toppled over into the street, falling with a deafening crash. Tho wall on the University street side also fell. Both St. Catherine and University streets wero olocked by the debris, while a gnst of dust, through which figures could be seen rushing to places of safety and the sputtering of broken ole.tric light wires added to tho excitement of the moment. The fire brigade were called ont but their services were not required. The break extended the width of two stores from the corner as far back as the entrance to the theatre, which itself was not damaged. Wright's "What Happened to Jones" company was to onen an engagement in the honse tomorrow evening, which must of necessity be canoellod. The loss is placed nt $25,000 on the building and |80,000 on the Scroggie stock. NEW ROUTE TO KLONDIKE. Victoria, Sept. 18.���The Canadian Development Company having mail contracts for both the United States and Canadian Governments, is making extensive arrangenients for winter work. Managing Direotor Kersoy has recently purchased nt Dawson 150 Mn- kenzie River dogs at an expense of 110,000 for use from Dawson to Selkirk. From Selkirk to Bennett horses and sledges will be used. The road to be used will be a "rat-on"' now being counstructed by tho Canadian Government, anl which is about 1,500 miles shorter than tbe old all-river route. THE EMPEROR VISITS.

THK AMI-ALIEN ACT. We have no reason to doubt that Mr Robeit I).Skinner, un Alderman of the Ciry of Vancouver, is "an observant man and without politioal preju'lice " This is a claim be makes in his own behalf, and judging from such reputation as has extended as far as Nelson it is not without reason. As an observant .nan he took note of the conditions that exist in the Atlin country, and as a nmn without political prejudice he can speak of them with a judg luent free from bias. He is just down from Atlin, und having noticed Mr. Cotton's commendation of the Placer Mining Act, as contained in a recent Rossland interview, be writes the News-Advertiser to say that Mr. Dot- ton's opinions are not borne out by the facts, and that the Act has boen distinctly injurious���injurious not only to Atlin itself, but to the whole country. Mr. Skinner has beeu on the spot to note the effects of it, and not being a politician can have no motive to misrepresent them. Mr. Cotton has no personal knowledge of the conditions to which it has given rise, and being a Minister feels himself under obligation to represent them in the rosiest, of lights. As the Alderman is as capable of a judgment as the Minister, men who aro governed more by reason than feeling will have no hesitation in ncoepting the opinion of the disinterested and unprejudiced man in preference to that of the other. Tho Act has done harm. It scarcely needed a Vancouver business man to visit Atlin to assure us of this fact. So far as it was intended to keep the gold of that country in Canada it has been to a large extent successful, for nearly all of it is in rhe ground yet and likely to remain tbere. But that is not what the country wants. Gold in the Atliu gravels is of no value to anyone; it is of valuo only when washed out and put into circulation, A country may be rich in resources, but if they are not developed rhe country will never be any better off because of them. If we have resources let us develop them ; that is the way to make a country rich. It is development we want, and it is development the Act is doing so much to discourage. If tho Act had not prevented,Mr. Skinner has no doubt there would have been _;"��,(jOO people in the Atliu district at the present time. That would mean large development. It would mean the manufacture and sale of a large quantity of supplies; it would mean a large trade of which every section of the country, and every class of the population, would experience the benefit. Instead of ,5,000 tbere are 5,01)0. and a volume of business that ought to be represented by five is measured by the figure one. There may be politic) iu Ihis, but it is not business. Il is not even politics, for no people can be. so hopelessly stupid as to be imposed upon by il for any length of time. Their rein-on will toll them the whole thing is wrong, and they will roject the men who advised it. Mr. Bklnnei addressed his views lo The Nows-Advoitiser. and be iug Mr. Cotton's paper, Tho News- Advertiser conceives itself under the neojBsitj of replying to it. The only point it can advance In rejoinder is to say that if these 211.000 additional bad gone into the Atlin the result would have been "an era of wild speculation, largely based ou unreal values, followed by a huge exodus of bitterly disappointed men." This is the cheap stuff that is made lo serve as n defence of the Act to exclude aliens and retard tho development of the Atlin placers. If sound in the case of Atlin, why not nlso sound for the Klondike? Under n different policy the Yukon is prospering at an enormous rato, and this year the Government at Ottawa will realise over a million of dollars in revenue from il. In addition to this, the whole country experiences some benefit from the development that is iu prog less. California and Australia and South Africa were not made rich by building a wull around their golillields and admitting but a soled few. Ami it is the duty of a Government and Legislature to interfere to prevent speculation and unreal values, they w-ill find it necessary lo legislate lor more than placer miners Speculation and uuroal values charuoterise every When il came to sentencing some boys for petty thieving, the Holico Magistrate of Vancouver was at a loss what to do. His good judgment and humanity revolted at the idea of sending them to the penitentiary al Now Westminster, while little good would bo served by handing Iheni over to the "so-called reformatory at Victoria. " We imagine there aro Police Magistrates iu tho Piovince outside of Vancouver who aro often puzzled to know what is best to do with juvenile Offenders who are not depraved enough to ho giveu up as hopeless. And it is not oreditable to our rulers and governors that no provision is made for their proper disposition. There should be no such thing as a "so-called reformatory" | and if Ministers would think a little less of repudiation and of playing for a class vote by legislating against aliens and set! iug capital and labor at loggerheads, and a little more of measures necessary for the publio welfare, we should have a reformatory or other place of confinement suitable for offenders of tlie kind that would.deserve something better thau this extremely equivocal designation. Our Greenwood namesake says: "The Miner can predict with certainty that the Government will be defeated at the opening of the House. What will happen then let others say who know." The general public will experience so much satisfaction in anticipating the defeat of the Government that many of them will uot care to trouble their heads about what is to follow. There is oue immense satisfaction iu the prospect in tbe knowledge that it will bo impossible to form a worse one.

PLANS FOR BLOCKS p, BUMS & 00. WILL HAVt; A HANDSOME FKONT. It Will be the finest on the Ooast North of San Fiamsoo.���llio New Mad : en Block. Wlioti the Monk now being ureot <l for P. Burns & Co., on Baker street is completed it will hnve tbn hnndsom- ,sl fnnit of nnv plnco of business on tho Pneiflo Coast north of Sun Francisco. Jinny peoplo who have seen tbo pinna and familiar with tbo principal buildings in tbn oities inoluded in thnt big swoop have agreed, that suoh is tlm oiiso Mr. Arthur Hodgins, the nr- ohiteot, bus dlsplnyed great artistle tiitsn in prepparing the plans and l\lr. Burns bus shown himself anxious ti] give Nolson a very fine struotnre in (incepting tbom. A Minor representative wus shown a sketoh of tbe front elevation giving all the details of the dooorativo work. The block will have n frontage of 01 foot occupied by two stores and nn entrance between them lending to the offices upstairs! Over this entrance will bo a terra cotta urch nad panel. This work will be beautiful in tbo extreme, with it bull's head standing out prominently ns emblematic nl the company's business and Bur- rounded by oherobs nud scroll work of ���unions designs. There will be nimble pilasters with a rough rook faoe in various places on the front of thn first story. Over tbu plate gln^s windows will bo prism transoms to give light to the deep stores behind. As the pilas. tors continue up the second story tbey will be of white pressed brick The windows will be spacious aud will be sot iu panels with while marble sills aud bonds and red brick punel_ and ni'chos with terra cotta spandrils, Above them, will be panels of white terra cotta set in rcM brick. A white brick and terra cotta belt course will rnn along the whole front of the building. Then comes the cornice of terra cotta, the whole surmounted by a balustrade of white term cotta finials. The blend:ngs of oolors h.s boon care- felly considered. Tho building will run back 100 feel_nud an elevator in the rear to raise meat, to tbe cold storage rooms will extend buck thirteen feet in the southeast corner. Tho r-om- biuiy's store will be forty feet deep aud the oiHces will be above it. The portion in the roar of this store will be divided into throe floors in which the cnld slorage system will be operatod, the machinery for which will be in the basement. This will supply room for a very elaborate plant which will be used by both the Burns Oo. nnd the Parsons Produce Oo. Tho other half cf the building will be occupied with the store which hus been leased to the Wallace-Miller Oo. Ltd., and offices above. The store will be one hundred feot deep and when filled by the very expensive stook of the Wallace-Miller Company will be one of the cost in the Province. The basement below it will bo oooupied by the Parsons Produce Company! The plans for tlio Madden block at tho comer of finkui and Wnrd streets are complete and yesterday the demolition of the old premises of Wallace and Miller wns commenced to make room for it. The block will have a frontline "f Sill feet on Bak��r street and 120 on Ward. Thero will three stores on the ground floor, one nt tbo corner, 05x26, nnd two facing Wnrd Btreet, -Ox.ti feet eaoh, The upper s'ory will be divided into 15 offices with a general entrance on Ward street. The chief characteristic of tho building will bo a high tower that will no up from the corner. It will be covered with galvanized iron. The building will be brick with ornamental brick belt courses. The orliees and stores will be splendidly fitted up and when the block is completed it will be a decided addition tu tho architecture of the city besides Inking the place of a rnmshnkle building lhat bordered an unsightly hole. Mr. Hodgins also has the plans prepared for the ollice building of the Loudon and B. O. Goldfields, which will be erected on Bilker Htreet, a few lot west of Kooten-y. The building Will 50x52. There will be a general Offioe, engineer's, malinger's and accountant's offices on the ground floor, and a board room, drafting room and two additional offices up stairs. The building will be a frame one, .will have a handsome front and will be tastefully fitted up in the interior. Tho example of tho London and B. O. Qoldelds would be a good one for other mining companies here to follow7. Mr. Hodgins is thinking of putting up n block for himself on his properly at the corner of Baker au 1 Kootenay Htreots, but he has been so bnsy with other blocks that he hns not had time to finally settle the matter. If he builds hia blook will be 50x50 with two stores on the ground floor and a ball above. of Cottonwood Oreek behind tho smelter. The addition will be laid out in lots, and recreation grounds will be provided for. Ii will be remembered that when Mr L, A. Hamilton, Land Ooniiiiii.hii.nei-nf the C. P. K.. visited Nelson some weeks ago ho expressed to tho Minor the willingness of the oompany to trade a piece of land for recreation grounds in tints reserve for the present reoreation grounds, the deed for which the company has been withholding from thu City for a long time. Tho oitizens, however, will not see it that way, and the matter slid limits lire. The 0. P. R. is under a moral, bnt peihups not leenl, obligation to the City to hand over the property, but now thnt it has became more valuable than it anticipated it isreluotnni to do so. The innial side of the matter does not appeal to it very strongly, One of tho officials has suited that, tho present recreation grounds will bo needed by the company if Nelson is made the railway center for Southern British Columbia. Perhaps if the company woull agree in something more binding, however, thnu a mere promise, to use tho grounds for a depot, round houses, repair shops, nnd uot for putting it on the mnrket in building lots, the exchange might be elfeoted. PRESENTATION TO A BANKER, Mr. A. II. Buchanan, of Nolson to Be Remembered by Rossland Friends. Rossland Record : The many friends of Mr. A, H. Buchanan, wlo was the pioneer manager bore of iho Bank of Montreal, and is now manager of the branch of the same bank at Nelson, have determined to take advantage of his recent marriage to show their appreciation of his services to the city of Hossland. On Tuesday next a deputation of loading citizens will leave here for Nelson, and will present, Mr. Buchanan, on behalf of his friends here, with a very handsome cabinet of solid silver. Mr. Buchanan was recently married ro a Montreal lady. DARING ROBBER'S; AT OHESAW. Ohesaw, Bept 15.���Last night Mr. Hughes, a prominent real estate dealer from Phoenix, 13. C., was held up by two highwaymen on the outskirts of Ohesaw. Mr. Hughes arrived in Ohesaw about 4 o'clock p. m., and meeting numerous friends proceeded in the usual western style style to celebrate The celebration wns kept in town until nfter 12 o'clock, when some of his friends undertook lo show him "across the creel..'' As near as can be learned,ho left the rest of the crowd, and started for his hotel. When he reached the bridge he was h.dd up by two men, wbo relieved him of .$-15 in cash and a gold watch and chain, and his hat. There is ni. clue to the robbers, although there are several suspicious characters around town Ohesaw police arc investigating, nnd it is hoped the guilty parties will be caught nud punished. WILL 00 TO GREENWOOD. It having been reported throughout the country in the press thnt the railway would not be be built into Greenwood this winter, nnd thnt tbo terminus would remain at Columbia for a long time to come, tbe editor of the Greenwood Miner wrote to the chief superintendent, nt Trail, and today received the following message by wire: "Trail, Sept. 14, 1801). "To R. E Gisnoll, Greenwood: "Referring to your letter. 5th, we nre doing everything possible to reach Greenwood at earliest possible date. We havo no intention of stopping work till we reach Midway.

V., Sept. 16.��� The Hall Mines will probably /work the Rlaek Prince copper claim, situated on Boulder Oreek, all winter. It is understood that a preliminary survey has been run up Hammil Creek from Argenta, and that the grade was only 1 per cent. The proposed railroad starting at tlie (Jiaw's Nest I'ass at or nbout Wardner, the probable snieltei point for East Kootenay, thence np tlie east side of the Kootenay river crossing near the Skookumohnok, and along the west side of the Columbia lakes np tbe Toby valley and down Hr.miiiil Creek and connect with tho Arrowhead branoh would undoubtedly open the greatest mineral bearing country in (he northwest. It would tap the Fort Steele, Skookumohnok, Windermere, Lardo- Duncan and Trout Lake mining dis- tiicts and would fcive railroad connection from the Crow's Nest Pass to Bevelstoke, thereby connecting the two C, P. R. lines. J. R. McLeod and partners bave uncovered an immense showing of high grade ore on the White Cat group on Boulder Creek. This property was located during the season of 1898 by Mr. McLeod. A force of men are now beiug worked under the personal direction of J. R. MoLeod. A largo crowd of prospectors came over the trail from the Lardo-Duncan aud Trout Lake country during the past week via Hammil and Toby creeks. There is every reason to believe that there will be an exceptionally late fall this year, and that there is a good two months prospecting to be had yet. Tbn weather is warmer now than at any time during the summer. The Jupiter Star haR n uico showing of gray copper ore situated on Boulder Creek near the Delos mine. The Windermere mining district otters more inducements to the prospector and capitalist than any other mining camp in the northwest. The Windermere Copper Mines Limited are working a force of men on their Copper Creek properties. The development work is under the direction of _\ J. Ryan of West Kootonay. The Swansea will probably start shipping in the very near future. Fred West has uncovered a nice showing of high grade oro on the Custer group, situated nn Horse Thief Creok immediately opposite Montezuma group. John Bnrman is developing ihe Christina group on Boulder Creok. * * * Wm. E Dngan, of Erie, wns in town yesterday. Mr. Dngan is prose- outing tunuol work on the W.J. Bryan group iu that district the property of Mr. George Green, of Rossland, Tbis group adjoins tbe Benhassen. * �� ��� The Jupiter claim at Erie has been purchased by Mr. Geo. Green, from Duncan D'Our and Geo. McCorinick for the sum of three thousand dollars oash. Mr. J. R. Crolstoii bus a foroe of four men sinking a seven by nine shaft on the One Eyed Bank group of mines, four and one-half miles south of this city, op Morning Mountain, At a depth of five feet he has encountered a fino body of ore covering the entire bottom of the shaft. It is tho intention of Mr, Crolstoii to stock this property in a short time, tb enable him ro secure capital to properly develop the different claims comprising the group.
