The Bino Industry so far has not made lithe progress which was anticipated for ,'lt earlier ln the year, due to several | causes which were lately detailed In The I Daily News. A Slocan tine owner, speak- Ilog of thiB subject yesterday to a repre- Isentntlve of The Dally News, said that ffiii demand for sine was daily Increas- "ng and with proper encouragement the upply would largely Increase also. But Ithe trouble was In treating tbe ore after lit had been mined. First of all, ln tlie majority of cases, it had to be separated Irom the lead contents, emailing a heavy fllosB of possibly 20 per cent or more after the ore had reached the niter, the -recovery there was certainly not greater than from 80 to 85 per sent These two losses taken together ounted to a serious charge upon the dustxy and that Industry an infant one.

Tift Hav Proclaimed Himself Governor, ud Insnrgcnis Offer lo Uy Down Their Arns Waahingtpn, D.C., Sept. 29i-Presldent Roosevelt, in a wireless message, tonight authorised the sending of the-first American army expedition to Cuba. All day the acting secretary of war and the chief of staff have been trying to communicate with the president, who visited the N rth Atlantic, fleet off Cape Cod -today, and the message tonight wns the first despatch they had received from; hltn. after the receipt of a despatch from secretary Taft early In'tho (lay in which he requested the sending of United Stales troops to Cuba, Immediately after the receipt of the telegram the acting secretary ot the war department, directed the Issuance of orders for the mobilization of troops at Newport News. : These orders, however,' were tentative, and there was great anxiety until his? approval came tonight. Preparations for mioblll- zatlon of the proposed expedition of 66,000, at Newport News were not delayed by the failure to get the president's sancUon of the expedition Immediately. The quartermaster general hurried orders .from his department to Cuba and contracts for transports were •Mite-ted (Into without heattti'Uon. m_ unUl -the reassuring despatches came from president Roosevelt there was mild uneasiness lest there might have been a misunderstanding of despatches. Brigadier general 'Funston, who is already In Cuba, Is to be In command of all the troops sent there. Colonel F. D. Crowder, of the judge advocate general's office, who is' to bs secretary Taft's legal adviser In the organization of the new government In Cuba, left today for Havana. Governor Taft has received a letter signed by' general Jose Mlquel Oome. and others of the "conspiracy prisoners" as follows: "We understand that tbe provisional government this ****<>* established In Cuba intends to carry out, bo tar as the same may be applicable to the changed conditions, the basis of settlement which the .peace commissioners recommended to both the moderate and liberal parties, including general amnesty for all political offenders. The undersigned, representing the Insurgent forces In the field, hereby agree on behalf of such Insurgent forces that they will at once lay down their arms, return to their homes, and restore the property taken by them for military purposes, which may now be In their possession. We request the appointment of a commissions by the provisional government to arrange details for the surrender of the arms and property." Mr. Taft Immediately ordered the release of all conspiracy prisoners and appointed a commission as requested In the foregoing letter. With far less ostentation than accompanies the accession dr a new municipal ndmlnlstra-lon. tlm government was formally taken over todny by William Taft, secretary or war or the United States, who ln a proclamation Indicative or the policy he would pursue, declared hlmselt provisional governor or the Island of Cuba, Promptly at noon governor Taft, assistant secretary ot state Bucon and captain McCoy, governor Taft's aide-decamp, called officially at the palace and paid tbeir respects lo the retiring president. Ignoring president Palma's message to congress on Friday, governor Taft spoke kindly lo senor Pnlmn, to whom he said the people of Cuba owed an unquestionable debt ot gratitude. President Palma's brief reply was devoted entirely to an expression of reliet tor the opportunity or shirting the burden ot guiding the tempestuous republic to Uie representative ot a nation strong enough to enforce control over lt. The tact that the government changed hands trom a position ot absolute Independence to the restraint of a temporary protectorate was received by the masses with indifference. Business con- Unned the same, except for the vigor exhibited by the 'wholesale merohants, manufacturers and railroads to regain their former trade throughout the inland, which has been at a standstill since the beginning of the revolution six weeks ago. The last 24 hours have been the quietest since the arrival ol the mediators ten days ago. Governor Taft. abstained from any act that might be construed as humiliating. His decision not to lower the flag of the republic was takr en on his own responsibility ns Friday night he was unable to get Into communication with president Roosevelt because ot a derectln Uie wireless apparatus on the vessel on which the president was proceeding •» Provlncotown. Moss. He felt oertaln, however, that president Roosevelt's friendship for Cuba would prompt him to approve this act of .courtesj1 to the broken republic.

The hope of sir Thomas to lift the cup lies in the new rule adopted by the New York Yacht, club, providing that tlie boats which may contest for the cup shall have less water draught, smaller sail area and shorter overhang. The rule seems to eliminate the freak type or yacht trom the contest and sir Thomas says that he has had enough ot the freaks. It the new rule be construed by the club In thc manner he thinks, sir Thomas does not see why he could not have as good a chance to compete and carry home the cup as the defender here would have to retain It "lt all depends," said sir Thomas, "on the interpretation of the rule,. I shall go to see the officials ol the New York club on Monday or Tuesday and talk the thing over with them. I would challenge In a minute if the conditions semed right. But I would never again try to lift the cup with a freak boat like the Reliance or the Shamrock. 1 bave been In consultation with Messrs, Ftte and Milne on the subject and they are utterly opposed to that style of craft in fact, I may say that they refuse to design another 90 footer under the rules that are more than 60 years old. They refuse to stand the strain ot sending such a emit across the Atlantic and risking the lives ot her crew, in a boat which is not flt or .even Intended for such a voyage." Sir Thomas does not fully sympathise with those who Bay tbat the object ol racing Is to develop speed regardless ol every consideration. "According to my ideas," said he, "the object or the contests ls to develop the best type ot all aiound boat. 1 believe It is not settled whether the new rule will permit schooners to enter for the cup. Thus far I have not considered tbe question whether a schooner would be a desirable style or boat even It the rules admit It I don't know that it would be possible to get the sail area except on a cutter. "If 1 was ln a position to do so, tbat Is, II 1 could have a boat built that would have some show, I would Issue a challenge tomorrow. The ambition or my lire Is to take the old plate back home where tt belongs." ♦ ♦ ♦ JEROME'S STATEMENT ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Buffalo, Sept. 89—"If they nom- ♦ ♦ Inaie a decent republican at Sara- ♦ ♦ toga I will go on Uie stump and ♦ ♦ plead for the defeat or Hearst," * ♦ declared district attorney Jer- ♦ ♦ ome or New York, at an adjourn- ♦ ♦ ed aession or the Albany con- ♦ ♦ lerence or anti-Hearst democrats. ♦ ♦ ".! will appeal for bis defeat nol. ♦ ♦ on tho ground that It Is a political ♦ ♦ Issue, but because the Issue rals- ♦ ♦ ed Is that or political freedom. ♦ ♦ We do not think that It ls a demo- * ♦ cratlc convention.

The Gloucester ts on shore 200 yards; the Wasp stranded on the Isle de Luzon, is a complete wreck, and a number of small launches and. tug boats were also demolished. WILL BLOW IN FURNACE FIRST OF B. C. COPPER CO.'S BIO BATTERY IS RlEADY. REST WILL BE BLOWN IN WHEN POWER 18 AVAILABLE (Bpecial is Tbe Dally Newa) Phoenix, Sept. 29.—After several months of preparation during which the two old and smaller furnaces were torn down and three new and much larger blast furnaces were in stalled, the British Columbia Copper Oo. ls today unloading the oro and coke necessary to enable it to blow in the flrst of these large furnaces. Many delays have been encountered in the transformation process which bas been going on at the Greenwood works ot the company, but J. E. McAllister, the manager, states that it is now only a question of hours when smelting will be going on once more. At •flrst bnt one of the furnaces wlll be placed ln blast, to be followed a few days later by the second, while tbe third cannot be blown In for a month or six weeks probably, or until the Bonnington power station near the smelter ls completed and in working order, so that the additional power required for the full battery "of three large blast furnaces, can be obtained. Not only have new and larger furnaces been installed at this smelter, but new ore bins, new blowers, automatic self charging apparatus, etc., has been added to the equipment .till it will be one of the most complete plants of Its kind In Canada. It is anticipated that the smelter, when in full commission, will smelt from 40,000 to 50,000 tons of ore per month, which Is an increase of about threefold over the capacity of the old smelting works. While the smelter has been rebuilding, the converting plant has lv-en operating more or less steadily, blowing up the copper matter from the Dominion Copper Co.'s Boundary Falls smelter. While the extensive Improvements have been going on , at the company's smelting works, Frederic Keffer, M.E., In charge of the mining operations of the British Columbia Copper Co., has d-een very active ln the work of placing the company's mines in shape to supply the large Increased output wanted when the smelter ls In commission once more. The statement has been made tbat the company was spending $100,000' in this way alone. At the company's Mother Lode mine .Deadwood camp, superintendent Holman has increased the force to about 200 men, the main shaft has been deepened and placed In the best shape for large output, and the machinery has beeu arranged entirely for the utilization of the cheaper electric power, steam having been heretofore used at this mine for power. Ore was sent to the smelter as long as place could be found for It, and many thousand tons were dumped on the ground at the mine, which will be now picked up by a C. P. R. steam shovel and shipped to the reduction works. This mine will probably maintain a steady output of upwards of 1000 tons daily when the three furnaces are in blast For the accommodation of the increased force of employees at the Mother Lode a three-story bunk house has just been completed, besides a number of cottages for the married employees. Besides this Mr. Keffer has prosecuted development ou, the company's Emma mine, Summit camp, and that fine property is In better condition than' ever, and will before long be equipped with au electric driven afr compressor. The Oro Denoro, adjoining, was purchased this year by the company, and is also being put in shape for maintaining ahlpmenta The formerly famous B, C. mine, also in, Summit camp, is under option to the B'. C. Copper Co, from the B. C. Chartered Co., Ltd., the owners, and is expected to yield a goodly tonnage, ore being now taken out of the property ready for shipment wben needed. This mine haa ln-years gone by shipped about 100,000 tola of ore that ran well tn values. MITCHELL ISjCOMING 11-Md of U. M. W. A. Will Take Hand in Fernie Strike Na it Hkttl, folk ud Cm! Crick ut -ItoHn-Uae-trtlMmu Eidiinic Letters (Special te The Daily New.) Pernle, B. C„ Sept "8.—It has been anticipated (or some day* that, railing to settle the strike at Coal Creek collieries, the miners at Michel would cease, operations. This they did today, on instructions rrom district president Sherman, who has Issued the tallowing notice: "To whom it may concern:—All workmen are requested to cease work, and stay away trom the mines and coke ovens operated by the C. N. P. Coal Co., at Cool Creek, Fernie and Miohel. Firemen and engineers are requested to continue work until rurther notice. (Sgd.) F. H. Sherman, president district No. 18, U. >M. W. ot A.." In a communication rrom president Sherman to general manager Lindsey today, he accuses the company ot having broken their contract when they revised to pay schedule wages to the blacksmiths and miners or Coal Creek, In June and July, 1906, and they only did so after a three days' strike ln August, 1906. He also claims that the coal oompany had pledged themselves to retain all old customs pertaining to thein employees during the lite or the agreement hut that they had changed the method or paying wages and also introduced an agreement which they compelled all men to sign who required employment; that, while pro'esslng friendship tar the union, they had deliberately ' upheld those who desired to bring disruption to Its ranks; that, when given the opportunity to choose between union and non-union men, the company charge the union with breach or faith, which they deny. He understands that the company has now. locked the men out, with a view to punishing them. The Issue Is clear, ir the company claim*, an Indemnity rrom the union, they will not get it He concludes: "Do you desire a resumption or operations at Coal Creek? I( so, let bygones be bygones. It not, say so." To which letter Mr. Lindsey replies hy denying the charge or breach of faith, saying that the wages to be paid blacksmiths was a minor question settled under article 2, and It came up at tbe same time as the McOlnty question; tbat Sherman had hlmselt told him that striking on this point was wrong, without disposing or the matter under article 2, but that he was forced to call the men out against his better judgment; that the payment by cheque instead ot currency only involves the extra effort on the part or the men of getting their cheque at one wicket, and tho money at a wicket two reet away; that (tie new agreement men are requested lo sign, as to the day on whtch they are to be paid, only effects new employees, with a notice ot a custom wblch has always existed; that ho has no desire to punish the men, and that, tr they had been told the undertakings given by president Sherman. Mr. Biggs, and national board member Jones, to the effect that there would be no discrimination against non-union men, the men would never have struck: and, In conclusion, he asks: "Are you willing to say now that It was agreed at our conference that there should be no discrimination against non-union men; It so, that wlll go a long way towards clearing the ground tar a rav- orablo consideration ol any request preferred on behair or the men to go bock to work." The miners at Coal Creek have been served with a notice by the coal company to give up possession or their houses on the llrst day or November. fln the last payroll (July) there were at Coal Creek 707 union and 35 nonunion men. It Is reported president Mitchell will he here next week. WE .SON'S NEWS OF THE DAY The customs collections for the month of September amounted to $19,737.

It Is that the separate nohoola of the capital are monopolized by the French-Canadians, and that the Kngllnh Catholics do not get a fair return tor the school tax they pay* Redress against the alleged Injustice was sought Hrst from archbishop Duhamel, hut as his grace sided rather with the French than with the English, nothing' was done. Then ap appeal wa* taken to Mgr, Sbarrettl, papal legate In Canada. Evidently the Question ot ways and mean* proved too difficult even for the polished diplomacy ot that eminent prelate. Ho has not suggested a remedy. Now, the c:s* h*J b *n submitted to Mgr, Kerry del Val at the Vatican for a ruling hy the pope. Th* appeal to his holiness speaks openly of "French aggres- «lon aad unwarrantable ecclesiastical methods," and makes the accusation that the school population of the French people Increase* much snore rapidly than their assessment, while the English Catholic assessment. Increases faster than the school population: AB all Separate School taxes go Into one fund the disparity thus complained of works Injustice to the English speaking Catholics who are contributing largely to French schools from which they get no beneflt. From 1886 until 1908 the separate school board of Ottawa wa* divided Into two section*; the French section controlling the finances and management of the French schools, and the English section looking otter tbe expenditure or taxes Intended for the 'English schools. But In 1903 the orchhlBhop dissolved this arrangement on the plea lhat it was Illegal. When lt was established In 1886 it was with his approval, and Its operation worked no Injustice either to French or Bngltih. But lh the meantime the French population hod Increased, and tn 1902 French children began to attend English separate schools ln such numbers Uiat aou* English chll- j dren were refused admission. Thar* has been on understanding for several yearB that tbe French should not Interfere In the election of English trust*-* to the board, nor should th. Engll-h meddle wllh Hie Franc*-, elections,; In WM this concordat was violated, and the following year the double Jurlsoltcilos In the board was abolished, as above explained, on the plea of Illegality.

Block their children! and have sent tbem to public schools If the pope Ib unable to. restore to the English Catholics their right to certain exclusively English- speaking separate schools, the breach between the two races will become wider, and the large majority ot English- speaking Catholics may enroll thomsel- ves as public school supporters. This, it is intimated to his holiness, would be an Injury done to religion. It Is said that the respect for occlesistlcal authority (meaning the archbishop), Is fast disappearing, and the result may be disastrous to the church. The situation as a. whole Is illustrative ot the disadvantage to the state ln recognizing any but the public schools. A separate school system Is a weakness that sooner or later will declare Itself. In time—it may be many years, but in time—the people of this country will realize lhat the state- aided secular school ls tbe bulwark of the nation, and that no denomination or sect should he allowed to break down that bulwark In any part by insisting on the giving of doctrinal instruction in school hours. The children of the nation, In the language of the Toronto News, should be, ln educational matters, the ward* ot the state. Let them be Instructed In religious topics at home or ln the church. There Is no danger of the country lapsing Into paganism, nor Is there any danger of a public school being hostile to any religious belief. nomas Catholics, now attend the high •obooIb of Ontario without losing their fait*-. Why could they not attend the publio bcbooIs with equal safety? The real sufferers by this Ottawa disturbance ■mth. children, and neglect of them r lessens the efficiency In lite ot the rttxt f-eneiaUon of Canadian cltlsens. A summary of the evidence given before the insurance commission In Toronto early lost week reveals some start- line disclosures of heavy speculation in northwest land on th* part of certain persona connected with the I. O ,F. Th,* Hot* brought out were: In April, 1903, Mr. Rufus H. Pope. e*--*tJ..p., and Mr. Oeo. W. Fowler, M. P., obtained an option from the Canadian Pacific railway for the purchase of 200,000 acres of land in thd northwest at "3.60 per acre. Subsequently lieutenant colonel John A. McOillvray, supreme secretory of the I. O.F., Hon. Geo, E. Poster, mati-aglng director of the Union Trust coa-pany, and Mr. Matthew Wilson, K.C, dUitoctor and solicitor for the Union Trust company, appear to have become posaesned of a one-half Interest In the option, which was transferred by tbe original-, owners to the Union Trust company at: an advance of |1 per acre. Ultimately, the option and the lands It covered were turned over to the New Ontario Farm and Townsltes company, a concern! which had no liabilities, and, aa Mr. Shepley Suggested, no property either, In the organisation of which Messrs. Foster, McQillivray and Wilson were, active. This was done under an agreement which required that there would tw an advance in price which would; net to these three gentlemen paid up stock in the company to the amount of $9(1,000. The whole purchase price ot the lands was paid by the New Ontario Farm and Townsltes company by the transfer to the Union Trust company of one thousand shores' of stock of the company. By a change of name this company became the Oreat West Land company, which Is controlled by the Union Trust company and holds the lands In question. Mr. Foster positively refuses to produce the stock book .bowing who oompo-e the company and the number of shares held by each Individual The transaction Involved an Investment of the funds ot the I. O. F. amounting to some $958,000. The Union Trust company does not figure in the documents as having handled the lands, the conveyance having been made direct from Messrs. Pope and Fowler to i*-b land company. The evidence disclosed that, at one time1 the I. O, F„ in investments mode through the Union Trust company and other subsidiary companies, held 400,000, acres of northern lands, involving an Investment ot $8,000,000.

Four books, a "First Primer," a "First Catechism," an "Enlarged Primer" and a prayer Book with (formularies, a complete collection of hymns, catechisms, etc., have been Issued In the language, father Morice being his own typesetter and printer.

Ho was the tlrst white man to make the trip which occupied nine days.

Bhe le too interested In the ohooulng of her separate blouses. These she really,needs. The*w ah* must * wear seven times a week tor 40 or -B0 weeks and therefore the choosing of them vitally interests her. She must decide what heat suits her purse for offlce or house wear; for the (housework in the morning or the daily journeys on the train. She wanders If it is- best to get them white or colored; how to have them made; whether W la heat to wear stiff, white collars with them or hay** stocks,. of the material. Bhe wants to know whether lt la best to wear cra-v-ata ui men do, or fancy white Jabots. She questions If It U good style and worth the -trouble to renovate old colored waists that she haa, or out pieces of fancy slik Into new blouses to add to a coat suit. tt ls a question aa to Juat how much she should spend on a good white blouse that may serve* for all extra- occasions, or whether it la wiser to have a bodice (built for the skirt, of the color, If not tho fabric Perplexing questions these. Quite aa ln- tereetlng as many of the problems that beset men and quite aa dlffloult to solve. Alan, 'of course, thlnka ha ta tha only one who has any real worn-lea to confront. ibut every woman knows the value of choosing wisely that -whtch aha must constantly wear, which ahe must constantly appear in beforo him. The two questions that confront her ap-*claUy concern her— shirt waist suits and blouses. If she has many of the former it is not necessary to have so many of the latter. It la true that several dark waists are now found to be a great saving of laundry. A white blouse lovely aa lt ls, lasts only a few hours, for even If It does not show actual soil, it' 'must be constantly pressed. A woman who' has her laundry done at home does sot find this so expensive or troublesome a .task, but those who send out their clothes to be washed, and especially those who board or live ln apartments, cannot a-ccoanpllsh this constant .ironing without more trounlc than it ls worth. Taffeta has almost disappeared aa a , fabric for separate blouses among those who -dress well.- Sntln Is not to be thought , of, Blouses ot heavy fabrics with wool In them have not been found available-he- cause the large majority of houses are so heatt-d all through' the winter that' a waist of any thlokWss becomes unbearable. ' It usually bast « lining, always boned, and one Is more liable to catch cold , by wearing suoh suits than to keep warm, One of the hew Ideas Is to have a. few {blouses of polka dotted * foulard, the dot or the foundation to match the color of the skirt, and then a high corselet belt, of cut raw leather to wear with it. These foulard waists are made often with a i.hln white muslin lining without bones; merely a covering for tho akin to keep moisture from fading the silk. It ia ' really wine to do this with every blouse ' that does not constantly go to the tub. - There la often a round yoke of -good lace, -' preferably Herman Val add Irish, these days; not the coarse mesh Irish, that Is _ very open with hyge crooheUed flowers. * This styirt ia too heavy for a silk blouse •! and should be used only with thick fabrics, - auch aa velvet and broadcloth. The kind"! ■ for Aiiti fabrics Is baby Irish-just the fine ' ' crochetted mesh without a touch ot ornament. It ls usually put on In scallops, pointed or round, with the foulard moet- Sng iii -fine tucks. Sometimes a two inch .■drip 1» run down the center of tho front, \ made of a band to match the yoke and a Htrip of Val insertion on each side. To outline thla, as well.as the yoke, Is a half Inch knife plaiting of the silk edged by a mere thread of a ham. The three quarter sloeVes ore ln tiny tucks at the shoulder ii nd below tbe elbow, and tha four Inch cuff Is also tucked, with three, rows bt plaiting at eaoh edge. At the back are ihree large buttons of crochetted silk. If, the blouse Is to be worn for any af-, * fair It can have added three little velvet bows. The buttons are prettier for common use. This model Is so pretty that l hnve described tt tn detail; for It can be followed {fn so many fabrics,. The revival of -the old fashioned style la White blouses has been received with so much favor that It will be carried out lh wutsts for winter. These have large or i-null'tucks', sometimes both In alternate rows, and are ■ fastened down the front with rather large pearl buttons through a box plait which may be hemstitched at the edge or left plain. At eaoh, aide la a nart^-T ruffle of the fabric edged with lacs. The cuffs and collar turn, over (or »three Inches, are made double and are edged with ruffles. The point to remember in making tho collar Is that it la mounted on a regulation high band first, which keeps it from turning ovar too near the base of the nook. These bloutrs are vary slightly .starched, itharsfiat1* -giving ihe neck and sleeves a soft look as opposed (o the stiff-collars and cuffs that an at tached. Under the chin- Is worn a broad bow or .narrow fonr-ln-huiut or colored ribbon. Young girls are the only ouch who can play havoc with the hun-nony .scheme and not look any the worse for It] They will wear this winter . dark blue plaid sulta with waists of red and.while striped silk, having turn over cuffs and collar and belt of Bcarlet. This combination Is most attractive. Possibly a plain thread of scarlet In the plaid cloth ndds to the good effect. It is better to -leave such (*olor work, however, to those under *25 yours old. KATHERIX-E, MA'NN-PAl'SSANT, OF INTEREST TO MINERS Cpnfliderable Interest has been taken recently by correspondents In the subject of vetns,*i.ykes, chimneys, etc., owing to certain statements having been made by mining "experts" upon the bodies ot ore found upon their claims. Many questions have reached The Dally News during the last few weeks refer- Ing to thlB matter; these.have been held over frith the object of incorporating all the replies ln a short series or articles instead ot frequently giving the same reply under different headings. The flrat of this series ls given below: MHWtuU, VEINS. A .true .mineral vein consists of one or more minerals deposited within a Assure of the earth's crust and is usually Inclined at from 10 to 20 degrees (sometimes considerably more) from the vertical. The bounding,' surfaces of a vein are teraled "walls"aml where inclined that which Is uppermost ls called the "hanging wall," whilst the lower side Is called th. "foot wall." The surrounding rock through whleh the vein runs Is called "oountry rock." A vein may coincide wllh a line of fault or may run Independent of any other structural divisions, In all cases, however, lt Is totally independent of country rock. Cases occasionally occur among crystalline massive rocks, and still more frequently among limestones where the Introduction of minural matter has taken place along gently Inclined or 'even horizontal planes such as. those of stratification and the veins then look like interstratlflcd bods. ' Mineral veins are, composed of masses, and layers of simple minerals or metallic ore* alternating or moro irregularly Intermingled with each other distinct from the surrounding country rock and evidently the result of a separate deposition. They must not in any respect he confounded .with veins of rock injected ln a molten state from below, or with those separated In a pasty state from Uy surrounding oountry rock Into cracks in Its mass. They aro commonly must frequent and most metalliferous in districts 'where eruptive rocks nre In abundance. They vary In breadth from a mere film to a great imass of rock, sometimes running over 100 feet ln width, 'llie simplest kind are tbe "stringers" of quartz or calclte that are found tu the more ancient rocks. These are frequently found running ln parallel Hues, sometimes uniting Into thick masses, which again gradually thin out into the stringers, and finally fade away. A vein often varies considerably In breadth. This may'be accounted for by'the Irregular opening of the fissure or by the shifting of thc 'walls, Those shifting", have occurred to an enormous extent in the fissures filled with mineral values as ls shown hy their abundant "sllcken sides." A mineral vein may be either simple, that Is, composed of one mineral, or compound. 'consisting of several minerals: and may or may not be metalliferous. The minerals are' usually crystalline but layers or. Irregular-patches of soft-decomposed earthy matter, clay, etc., frequently accompany them, especially on the wall face. | Non-metalliferous minerals are called "gangue"or vein matter, the more crystalline being popularly termed "spars," such as quartz spar, calcspar (calclte), fluorspar (fluorlte), heavy spar (bralte). Th. metal bearing minerals are known as "ores," The ores are sometimes native minerals especially In the cue ot copper and. gold; but, for the moat part are sulphides, oxides, carbonates, silicates, etc. Some of the content* of these volns are associated with certain minerals more usually than with others; such a* galena wtth blende. pyrlf. with chalcopyrlte (copper pyrites). gold with quarts, and. magnetite with chlorlt* Metallic ore occurs under a variety of form* In mineral veins. Sometimes they are scattered throughout in fine grains or threads, as ln pyrites or gold; or cather together In irregular strings, branohe* or* bunches as In native copper; or di-posed ln layers alternating with th. -jufue parallel with the walls of th* v*tn, aa most metallic ores; or forming th* whole of the vein, as pyrlte and galena occasionally do; or lining cavities both' on a large and small scale as hematite or galena . Some ores are noted for containing minute proportion* of another metal as galena containing silver or pyrlte containing gold. (To be continued next issue.) CORRESPONDENCE ' N. MoK„ Slocan, B. C—Your No. 1 sample shows no Indications of galena at the same time, as you say, It may carry rich values in silver. It ls an oxidized ore and will probably carry some lead; what amount It Is impossible to state without having Its assayed. The fee for a silver-lead determination will be J1.60. No. ii Is a ohlorltlc took and wlll carry very little If any values. No. 3 is apparently a mixture of the .two previous samples; assay for silver and lead. O. M., Nelson, B. C—It would be nee-' essory to have an analysis mode upon your rock, before placing any name to It It ls a rock that has. been considerably exposed or weathered. It contains a large percentage of silver, with aome basic material present 'There are also showing some specks of mica It may contain small quantities of gold. ". F. D„ Nelson, B. C—No. 1 is an oxidized Iron ore, which coming from the district you'state should contain good values'in gold. No. 2 it is impossible to state whether this' IS hematite or Umonite without an analysis. The only difference between the two being that Umonite contains a certain amount of fixed water, whilst hematite has none. Both samples wlll be kept 10 dayB. A. B. C„ Ymlr, B. C—Your oro is pyrrhotite in quartz. There Is some arsenic present in this sample, but as far as can be seen there ls no arsenopyrlte. Probably the arsenic replaces part of the sulphur In the pyrrhotite. lt Is doubtful whether this ore would prove a milling one or not. ■ ln some instances It Is 1 known to yield Its gold or part of it in the milling process, ln others tt bas been found Impracticable. You should have a milling test made upon this rock. J. C. H., Kaslo, B. 0—Your samples have been carefully examined and tested. The one that contains three pieces contains no native copper. The reddish part whtch you no doubt took for copper Is an oxidized Iron ore. The rock* ls an ordinary quart* varying from white to blue with certain amounts of decomposed material Intermixed. The sample with two pieces ls: flrst piece, quartz; porphory; second piece, a schistose rock. We fall to' llnd any Indication of native silver ln this sample.' It would probably be advisable to have both assayed for gold and silver, though It cannot be stated without an assay what quantities either will contain. The fee will be $1.60 In each case. C. M„ Salmo, B. C—Should you send your samples In for determination and assaying we shall be pleased to assist you, where possible, otherwise you must refer to our advertising columns. C. H., Orand Porks, B.C.—All three of your sample* are very similar. They are what might be termed a seml-lmslc ore with pyrlte and chalcopyrlte scattered throughout. They wlll probably carry small gold and sliver value, together with some copper. Your samples will be kept S. R., Greenwood, B. C—No. 1 is not covelllte it ls bornite, the amount of Iron present indicating this, as covelllte is pure copper sulphide. No. 2 apparently Is a combination of malachite and azur- Ite; though It may be either one or tbe othor aa< both vary greatly In color, lt would be* hard to separate and determine. W. B. O., Sandon, B. C—The balance of your books have gone forward this last day or bo. It ls to be hoped they will fulfill your requirements. Should any difficulties arise please write us. ■ We -have still one assay certificate awaiting to be claimed, and which ls paid for. Tbe sample came from ,1. W., Slocan City, whom we are unable to locate. E. B.S., Camborne, B. C—Apart from tbere bolng small grains of galena, pyrites and gray copper in your crushed ore, it Is Impossible to answer your questions.' You should hnve sent It ln in coarser pieces. Should you wish it assayed the fee wlll be KM tor gold, silver and lead. SEWING Machines At Bargain Prices One Drop Head New Williams, ail attachments, new machine.

Havana, Sept 29.—An American provisional government assamed possession of Cuba today, when war secretary Taft's proclamation, declaring himself provisional governor of the island, wan formally issued. The Gazette and thousands of copies of the document were distributed in Havana and elsewhere. The terms of the proclamation caused general satisfaction, especially on account of the moderate terms in -which it waa .expressed. Its -statements are that the provisional government of Cuba is undertaken only on account of the necessity of the situation, and Its promise that the provisional government will be maintained purely for the purpose of restoring peace, order and public confidence until a permanent government is established. No one appears inclined to doubt the good Intentions of president Roosevelt and his representative, as there is no apprehension of any serious trouble or resistance to the provisional government In any part of Cuba. While governor Taft has not yet taken possession of the palace .it is only because ex-president Palma will not be ready to evacuate the residence until Monday and Mr. Taft desires'to do whatever he can to suit the ex-president's convenience. No disturbance of any kind occurred last night. The business interests here are gratified at the change of government The fact that the Cuban flag has not 'been lowered ts an evidence of this. ■This establishes a precedent in provisional governments and protectorates. Governor Taft's proclamation is as follows: "To the people of Cuba— "The failure of congress to act on tlie irrevocable resignation of the president of the republic of Cuba or to elect a successor leaves the country without a government At a Ume when great disorder prevails it requires that, pursuant to the request of Mr. Palma, the necessary •steps be taken in tbe name of the president of the United States to restore order and protect, life and property ln the island of Cuba, and the islands and keys adjacent thereto,- and for this purpose to * establish therein a.provisional government The provisional government hereby established will be maintained only long enough to restore order, peace and public confidence, by direction and in the name of the president of the United States, and then to hold such elections as may be necessary to determine those persons upon whom the government of the 'island devolves, in so far as is co*-* Bistent with the nature of a provisional government, established under the authority of the United States. This will be a Cuban government, conforming with the constitution of Cuba, The Cuban flag will be hoisted as usual over the government buildings of the island, all the executive departments and provincial and municipal governments, including that of the city of Havana, will continue to be admlnls- *red as when under the Cuban republic. The courts will continue their work administering justice, and all the laws not in' their nature inapplicable, by reason of the temporary and emergent character of the government, will be enforced. President Roosevelt has heen anxious to bring about peace under the constitutional government of Cuba, and he made every endeavor to avoid the present step. Longer delay, "however, would be dangerous ln view of tbe resignation of the cabinet. Until further notice the heads of all the departments of the central government will report to me for instructions, Including general Alexandra Rodriguez, in command of tho rural guards, and other regular government forces, and general Carlos Roeloff, treaaurer of the Cuban government' "Until further notice, the civil governors and alcades will also report to me for Instructions. I ask all citizens and residents of Cubato assist me in the work of restoring order, tranquility, and public confldence." (Signed) "William H. Taft, secretary of war, United States provisional governor of Cuba" READY FOR SERVICE WHAT IT MEANS TO MBN IN EVERT WALK OP LIFE A Talk with thc Mnnaglng Director of Fit Rororm Company. Montreal The successful man Is he won in nible to cope wltfi every emergency—he Is ready for service. One of the substantial Hue- censes tn the Canadian commercial world has been achieved by a flrm thai adopttd this standard of ready for service for their business motto. Title was interestingly ■brought out during a talk with Mr. Arthur A, flandeman. managing director of me Fit .Reform company, or Montreal, crea- !ors of the famous Fit Reform tailor made ■garments, ready for service. 'Ten years ago wc decided that the time had come for Canndlons to adopt the mme system In regard to their personal atUre tbat had already proved a Buoeess .In the United States—namely to wear tailor made garments ready for service, Just as they wore hats, shirts and shoeB ready to put on."

The Inside Is as Intricate as a watch. Hundreds of tiny stitches, each one taken by hand, to hold every quarter of an Inch of cloth, padding and llnlns.ln Just the proper place after the -foods are moulded Into sliapo iby tht nimble fingers of our tailors. And there are hundreds ot larger stitches to permanently fix the shape ot tho shoulders, collar and lapels-fastened in tho sleeves, This work Is all done by specialists who are carefully trained In one particular part of the work. It Is this specialisation of tho tullorlnff that has brought Fit ■Reform garments to their present standard of perfection." 'What led you to make such a rndlcal change ln the method of displaying Fit Reform garments In the wardrobe?" BeeatiflL'." continued the managing dt- ert*tor, "after perfecting the tailoring and tit of our garments, they deserved better treatment than to be piled on tables to get wrinkled and full of dust. So we Invented our priwent Fit Reform wardrobe system. It not only prevents garments from getting soiled nnd out of shape, but also enables ub to keep together a|l garments of a else and to f*how the different patterns In any particular stae In an Instant. That the Ftt ■reform wi-rdrnfoe system was nnd Is a com- ple-te success, is shown by tho number ot copyists, not alone in Canada, but In tho United Btates as well." "Canadians appreciate Fit Reform very much do they not?" "Yes; and as an Illustration I might men. lion the fact thnt when Fit .Reform was Inaugurated we had but a handful of agen- cles. Today our ugenclea extend across the continent, from Sydney, C.B. to Victoria, B.C., and in addition a company has been formed In England. Even, with improved facilities and a steadily growing corps of expert tailors, we find it difficult.at times to keep up with the increasing demand." "How many agencies do you have in each city?" "I am glad you asked that question, for tihat Is something that we want to Impress on every patron and prospective patron of Fit Reform garments. There Is one and only ene, wardrobe In each city. Fit Reform has no connection with or Interest in any other business. The only Fit Reform wardrobe in Nelson is at Emory and Wnllc-t-'s." "I suppose you find that Nelson Is growing?" "Yes; it Is astonishing, and I feel that the east will have to look to her laurels tf she expects to keep pace with the. west," Mlnvd*!

Every 20th Century Brand garment is the product of the com- "— ~ pany's own tailor shops, the largest and most modern in Canada, and always under personal supervision.

AND AT Pender Street, Main Street, VANCOUVER KAMLOOPS and VERNON P.R.1-WT HIGHLANDER'S TUNNEL OUT TO BB WADE WBIOH WILL "PROW' AINSWORTH CAMP. TENDERS FOR THAI WORK ALREADY OALUBD FOR. ■ In this issue Is advertised, in another column, a call tor tenders (or tho oxten- filoQ of'the lower tunnel ot the HlKh- •*' lander mine, Ainsworth, tor one thousand feet To understand the situation, which Is likely to put an altogether new teco upon the mining at Ainsworth, It muBt be premised that the Highlander property Ib not the same thing as the property of the Highlander Mill and Mln- . Ing oompany. The Highlander Itself ls an old location 600 feet by 1C0O feet, The company, own that property and own . some down others around which a / fence could he built, all lying together. The system of veins on the Ainsworth '" shore run north and south, parallel with the lake. The Highlander Itself Is stok ed north and south. Lying between the Highlander and the shore are flrst the Eagle and then the Ivanhoe claims, both belonging to the company. All the veins dtp Into the hill. I.e., away from the shore. What was flrst done was to drive a crosscut tunnel from the Eagle fraction, about 320 feet vertically above the lake. This ran through the Highlander. next to the west, and through the Little Donald, a similar location to the Highlander, staked on a parallel series of veins. Beyond this <the crosscut tunnel was extended, still west, Into the Alma, about the middle of which location, tl Was discontinued, having reached a distance of 2010 feet from the porta). Bul to the south ot the Alma Ih the Krao on which a strong vein was a long time ago discovered, running 3400 feet northward across the Krao, Virginia, Alma, Rex and Webster, all of which, with the exception of the-first named, belong to the Highlander company. This vein was exploited on the Krao and ln August last a strike of some importance was made on that property at a depth of 30,70 and 100 feet, ln three levels, and ran extremely well. So well Indeed did It run i that It Is worth the while of the High-1 lander company to cut that vein at depth and that Ib just what they are about to do. But the Krao vein dips into the hill to the west. That Is to say It dips out of the Alma before any great depth has been gained. But the management ot the company, seeing that the Alma was a new location, and therefore It was not permissible to follow the veins outcropping within beyond the vertical sidelines, staked aU the properties to the west, Regina, Dorothy, Buck and Doe. Hence, although the continuation of the present tunnol 1000 feet, carrying lt some 3600 feet Into the hill, will* strike the Krao vein at a depth of about 1600 feet, tt will not strike It upon the Alma but upon the Regina, or possibly the Dorothy still further to the west.„ Again the Highlander tunnel, beginning by cutting the Highlander series of veins, cuts the series of three lying Immediately to the west In the Little Donald and other properties to the north and south. Tho northern extension running into the Maestro and Spokane, both of which are shippers, also cuts ■mother series before the Krao vein Is reached, And beyond the Krao vein Is yet another serfes of veins, all lying parallel to t)ie Krao and Highlander, all of which will be opened ut depth by this magnificently schemed crosscut. It may be said that the whole of Ainsworth camp will presently Iw proved In a manner tt has never been before, and at one stroke its permanency and value will be established. THEY USED TO LAUGH But Today tlie Well Dressed Man Known More Than lie Did A few years ago the customer In the Semi-ready wardrobe would say: "Why, you have clothing us high 1n, price as I can have It made to order." No tailor can makt*- a 929 or S30 unit like Seml-ri-ady and *eU It for-th0 same money as the same quality Semi-ready suit'Is aold. It la the cui-toms tnllor who Is on, the defensive today. "Why, you u.sk ait much as for what I can get a real Semi-ready ault." The physique type measurements and the unbounded advantage of semi-ready tailoring an* being appreciated by gentlemen who a tew yeara ago would laugh at thc Idea of 'buying elsewhere thun from a custom tailor. Nowaday** they smile at the man who does not know better than to buy a walt-to-order suit. J. A. Gllltor. Agent, Nelson.

Officers of the Canadian revenue service suggested that a buoy or line of buoys be established In the center of lake Erie as a boundary, line, The matter was referred to the department of state and acting secretary Adee, in response to a suggestion from the treasury department, said there was no reason why tho buoys should not be laid but that, of course .they eould not be considered as a definite International boundary. He suggested that officers of the United suites revenue, cutter Mordlll and the Canndan I revenue cutter Vigilant meet and arrange I Tor the placing of the buoys which, so far as fishermen ot both countries were concerned might be -considered us the boundary. Tho state department wns Informed loday by tho treasury dopariment that the Idea would be carried Into effect. Philadelphia.

STOCKS FOR THE WEEK MARKET IS GREATLY INCREASING IN ACTIVITY BIG AH VANCE IN ALL STOCKS HAS SET IN IRsportea by B. ti. MIghton * co.) The stock market for the 'week ending yesterday Increased In activity. All stocks advanced by leaps and bounds, such as has not been witnessed since' the boom days. While some of these slocks are purely speculative, the majority of the B.C. securities, offered are meritorious and worth the price asked. A warning note nii-enf: speoulaitlon is ibeing sounded in eastern publications, and- a recall of the boom of some nine or ten yearB ago with their disastrous results recited. While a timely warning Is beneficial ln the excitement -of a rising market, still at the prices thc stocks of this province nre quoted, such a warning Is hardly in order. As the prices are not yet above their Intrinsic value, and again shares ot developed mines having a value albove the market price ot such shares, cannot be compared with the stocks of undeveloped properties, and in most cases stock of "wild cats" sold during the days of '97 and '98. Nicola Coal Mines advanced from 5 to 19 cents and are holding very firm with every prospect of going much higher. North ■Slur Is still advancing with an unsatisfied demand. This stock has more than doubled Its prloe, and Ib predicted to reach 50 cents within a month. International Coal Is very weak ln consequence of rumors of a strike at the coalfields. Should these rumors be unfounded, tho stock will Immediately ndvancc. Sullivan was very weak. 1ml Is again picking up and ls likely to be held firm within a day or so. American Boy Is exhibiting some strength and will undoubtedly advance slightly. Dominion Copper continues to show great strength, with a tendency to advance still higher.

R. Boss, K.C., the defendant The two -girls in the case. Bessie O'Connor and Hazel Crowley, arrived In Fernie yesterday morning: and gave evidence against the prisoner. They -stated in the witness box- th-at they met the accused In the Limit hotel, Spokane, Wednesday evening, September 19, where they were having a glass of beer with two men friends. They had had several drinks fbr some of which the Simpson woman paid. They did not remember much of the subsequent events of the evening. When they wakened they were ln a stateroom on the Great Northern railway at Rexford and changed cars for Fernie, where they arrived at 10.30 the next morning. They had no idea of the character of their travelling companion but thought It strange that she should have put them on the train and paid their fare. They did not discover the woman's Intention In bringing theme to her -housa till their arrival there. As soon as they had rested nnd had. lunch, tbey walked into town and notified the police, who immediately arrested the accused. Mr. Herohmer -pressed for a conviction on the grounds that the prisoner had been guilt of bringing the girls into Canada for Immoral purposes, contrary to the criminal code. Defendant's -counsel contended that as the offence had been committed In the state of Washington, the Canadian courts had no jurisdiction, and ln this contention he was upheld by the learned judge. The case was therefore,dismissed and the prisoner discharged. KOOTENAY—J. Caspar, Cranbrook; Ij. Castontrll, Bonnington; h. Fevre, Montreal.. LAKEIBW—M. Bendred, A. Gardiner., Erie; F. Curry.
