A largo number of Silvertonians gathered at the d-ick on Thursday j morning to bid farewell to Mrs Thor- | burn, who left for the Yukon to join I her husband, and sincere regret was Mt at her departure. In losing Mrs . Thorburn Silvertou says good-bye to one of her earliest citizens, shw being one of the first women in the Slocan having come in in '0:1 over tho trail from Nakusp. In 'ill, with her husband, she came to Silverton, then Four Mi!e City, and has watched this town change from a hamlet of log slack-, to a town with substantial stores, hotel-* and residences. To all the old timers in the Siocan she is known tor her kindness in thc sick room at a time, when "the tou.h ! of a woman's hand" was welcomed at jit true worth, and for her unfailing ' '^P cheerfulness during thn trying pioneer duys.

PITHY* POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS. From The Victoria Post. Joseph Martin ie at onoe tbe cleverest and the mnst depraved politician in British Columbia. The Hon. W. C. Wells is like Ten- •tyson's brook. Men may come a.id nipn may go, but he goes on forever The accent is on the men. Some men gain thr. prefix of Honorable to their names by going into a cabinet, others by walking out of it. James Dunsmuir is a worse thirg than a knave; he is a fool. Folly can sometimes accomplish more mischief The public appreciate good service ami Boort goods. That is why they do their raiinii with R.

The total payments of principal and interest will be 1.000,000.- 000 taels. The subjects of punishments and examinations were practically closed, the ministers accepting the Chinese statement of what has been accomplished as the best settlement obtainable, although not satisfactory. TRADE REPORT. R. G. Dun k Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade for last week says: A fortnight of the steel strike has passed without materially altering the position of the contestants or adversely iffecting the industry as a whole. Exceptional activity Is noticed at the mills not affected by the strike and the movement of structural material for bridges, buildings and track elevation is still heavy. Steel bars for agricultural implements are firm in price and freely purchased. Railways seek freight cars and rails are sold for delivery next /anuary. Cotton ties, sheets and hoops are commanding a premium. Pig Iron is accumulating, but producers offer no concessions. New lines of woolen goods for delivery after October 1 opened at moderate reductions from last year's prices, as generally expected by the trade. Sup plies of heavy weight goods have been reduced to a satisfactory point and the situation in all branches of tbe induc- try is such as to engender confidence. Raw woolens, however, thus far failed to reflect the improvement quotations remaining unchanged. A few of the most expensive grades are held above former figures and the bulk of the new domestic clip has gone Into tbe bands of speculators who await profitable terms. Cotton goods are dull, neither buyers nor sellers exhibiting any eagerness to make preparations. Withdrawals of prominent concers from the Fall River selling committee suggests lower prices for print cloths. Mills are not fully employed, either north or south. Quiet conditions in the domestic manufacture, light exports and better weather on plantations caused fur- thelr depression in raw cotton. Shoe shops are producing at full capacity, with orders arriving steadily and salesmen are already placing spring samples liberally in western and southern markets. Business Improves as tbe season advances, and local jobbers report July trade ln excess of the ^orresjk x month in any previous year. Variations In tbe corn market Indicated manipulation by stock market Interests. Weather reports alone were sufficiently distressing to carry Sep tember corn at Chicago to within a smsll.fraction of 60c. while the withdrawal of support caused a 6c decline the following day. High prices prevailed throughout the week, however, and 2,449,921 bushels of old corn were taken out of the cribs and marketed at big prices. Wheat prices are more rational and the movement is heavy. Receipts for the week were 6,493.000. against 5,496,- 997 last year, and Atlantic exports 4,873,309 bushels, against 1.600,350 a year ago. Failures for the week numbered 198 ln the United States, against 131 last year, and 28 ln Canada against 28 last year. RRITISH Hill Mill A. The existence of bituminous coal on the north fork of tiie Kettle river. 80 miles above Grand Forks, has been confirmed. The Cambria mine in Burnt basin was recently bonded to Chicago people by R Darrow. The price is not mad" public, but is between 15000 and $8000. Ore shipments from Kaslo Ittt week are: Slocan Star, :S9 tons, valued fit $17,538; Last Chan e. 21 tons, valued at 11991; Rambler-Ciriboo. 60 tons, valued at $6840; American Boy. 41 tons. A number of Spokane p?opJe are interested in the Tamarack Group Development syndicate, which is working the Tamarack near Slocan. B. C, under option. The property lies on Springer creeif. Jay P Graves, general manager of the Granby Consolidated Mining * Smelting company, says -hat another corporation that will Include leading shareholders in the Granby will build a smelter in Grand Forks. A site adjoining the Granby plant has already been selected. The railway from Marcus to Republic will open a large territory studded with prospects on which development is being actively pished. It looks as if some of the gold-coppfr properties on which operations are under way will soon be in position to furnish a light tonnage to the railway. Tbe Reco mine st Kasio. tbe property of J. M. Harris, will soon again resume shipment, as operations have been under way for several days to open up new bodies of valuable mineral lately discovered. Good miners are scarce and Mr. Harris finds difficulty in securing a satisfactory force of men. On the Tammany group in Burnt basin a 100-foot abaft is being sunk under the management of Bert Rea of Rossland. Since Mr. Pickering bought this property in the spring, bunk and mess houses and a blacksmith shop have been erected and other extensive Improvements mad<". The effec*. of tbe strike in the big mines is apparent on the ore shipments for the week. The total output of the big mines of Rossland was: Sixty tons shipped from the Le Roi to the Trail smelter, and the Iron Mask, which is working as usual, sent out 140 tons, making tbe total output of the camp 200 tons. The Enterprise in Slocan is showing some phenomenally rich silver ore. The work Is going along smoothly at the mill, which will soon be in shape to handle the output of the mine. Speculator camp Is a busy place, with work on half a dozen*claims. About 20 men are employed at the Enterprise under Foreman McGhee. Work is progressing day and night on the Victoria on Shamrock mountain, near Cascade. B. C. Two shifts are driving the tunnel which Is soon expected to crosscut the lead. Should surface values go down, Cascade will soon bave a shipping mine The promoters of the property are D. C. Beach of Cascade and Frank Surkey of Spo kane. Butte Wheat Portland.—Walla Walla, 55056c.

The monthly pay roll in amounts to over $2,000,000. During the present year Butte h3S been practically free from smoke. The dally output of ore from the mines of Butte exceeds 10,000 tons. Mammoth ore shipment* from mine to mill were 1050 tons, bringing the total for tbe year up to 55,128 tons. The Buckhorn group, one of the best known properties n northeastern Idaho, will soon have Its own stamp mill at work. Shipments for the wiyk from the Morning mine at Wardner, Idaho, were 450 tons of concentrates and 39 tons of ore. The people at Troy, Idaho, are wildly excited over the existence of gas out- croppings. since the visit and encouraging report of Professor Samuel Aughey. The flrst discovery of gold In Montana is reliably reported to have been tana is reliably reported to vbgkqj v made in what Is now Deer Lodgn county, in 1852. Among the mines around Baker City, Oregon, there are 44 properties which have produced ore, and last year they turned out bullion worth In round num- beri $4,000,000. Santa camp. Idaho, U humming. Preparations are under way for working on a large scale, and confidence In the camp Is Inspired hy the developments In progress. The flrst discovery of copper In Montana was made In 1864 by two prospectors who were In search of gold ln the vicinity of the present "Greatest Copper Camp on Earth"—Butte. The Northport smelter management worked a coup upon the strikers at 4 o'clock Monday morning by bringing a special train with 48 nonunion men Into the works. The new arrivals come from Leadville. Confirmation reaches Orangevllle Idaho, of the strike at Elk City In the old Bine-Dragon, now the Alamance. ' mill was placed in operation as quickly as could be done. News has reached Lewiston, Idaho, that a rich strike has just been made on the old Blue Dragon lead, iu the Elk City district, where a flve foot seam of , ore assaying $49 per ton lias been un- ' covered on the 100 foot level. The shipments from the Standard mine at Wallace, Idaho, to the mill for the week were 3120 tons, an increase of almost 400 tons over the ! previous week. This briug3 the total for the year up to 88,731 tons. The souvenir number of tbe Western Mining World, published at Butte, is a work of art. It contains many halftones of principal mines and smelters in the Northwest, as well as a world of mining infoyrmatlon. Send for It. Word has been received from Lake view. Idaho, that the new wagon road to the Keep Cool mine haa just been completed, giving splendid means of transportation from lake Pend d'Orellle [ to the camp. The face of No. 5 tunnel is all in solid ore. and in the winze the miners are sinking from No. 5 ln good cr?. The Conjecture company has put Its full force of 18 men at wor't on development at its well known Pend Oreille property. Shipments have lieen sus- j pended for the present, but they will be started again in about a fortnight, when it Is expected that 60 tons a week will be sent to the Tacoma smelter. A ledge of high grade ore has been encountered in the Deer Trail No. 2, which was abandoned by that company's superintendent some time ago. For years ore was taken from this claim by the Deer Trail company, but it all came from blanket ledges encountered at numerous levels. "There is yearly as much money'Invested in mining as there Is In banking, but banking does not prove as safe or as profitable as mining. In a time of prosperity the average banking dividends seldom exceed 8 per cent a year. • • • That mining produces quicker and greater profits than any other Industrial pursuit is evidenced by the scores of multi-millionaires." The Apache at Nespelem, Wash., continues to improve and the ore Is phe- nominally rich. The last assay shows a total value of $2,547.17 in gold, silver, copper and lead. It was not an assay from a picked sample. Hundreds of pounds of finer ore are being taken from the shaft every day. Mining men who have hitherto given Nespelem but little attention are coming this way and deals of all kinds are under way. Passengers from Nome City report a rich strike ln the Fairhaven district, 90 miles north of Nome, and say a stampede has occurred from Nome. The Bluestone district Is still frozen and it will be some few weeks before miners will be able to commence sluicing. The Kongarock district Is also backward and 1.300 men nre in Teller City waiting for the season to open. Over half a million dollars has been sluiced from winter dumps near Nome. The silver-lead mines cf the Coeur d'Alenes and British Columbia continue to be the most profitable branch of mining in the Inland Empire. In the face of the depression In silver, and In spite of uncertainties ln 'he lead market, they keep on paying dividends at a pace that has never been rivalled by either the gold or the copper mines of the surrounding country. The dividends paid the silver-lead mine owners of the Coeur d'Alenes and British Columbia reach $12,000,000. That Is over three times the profits that have been disbursed by the gold and the copper minea. which have paid ln profits a trifle less than $3,500,000.

The conference held In New York Satur- lay between the officials of the Unit- ad States Steel corporation and Preg|. dent T. J. Shaffer and Secretary j0t,n Williams of the workers' organization has resulted in paving the way for renewal of negotiations between the two conflicting interests. It lg g^ that a basis for a conference has been arrived at. This basis will not be divulged until later thia week, if tj,e basis Is satisfactory to the general executive committee of the Amalga- mated association tbe conference between tbe association and the manufacturers will proceed at once, if ,jn the other hand the basis is not what the Amalgamated association coqMi|- ,-rs negotiable, tbe strike will continue. President Shaffer and Secretary Williams of the Amalgamated ftg80. ciatlon. bave returned from New York. They spent many hours In conference with the leading officials of the steel trust, and came horn- with hopes for nn enrtv ending of the strike. In Pittsburg little was known Of the conference, hut the greatest Interest In the outcome wa* shown among the manufacturers. Vice presi- dent Pope of the Carnegie Ste^l company, said he had heard absolutely nothing of the results, and did not know that the conference was on. Additional Information regarding the New York meeting of the indus- '.rial leaders was afterward pick°d up from reliable sources. It was stated tbat the two Amalgamated officials left Pittsburg on Friday night and whtn they arrived in New York went direct to the private office of Mr. Morgan. The meeting between the Pittsburg men and Mr. Morgan lasted from about 11 o'clock In the morning until 4 o'clock in the afternoon. At no time did the conference adjourn to the offices of the United State 8teel corporation. During the conference President Shaffer and Judge E. H. Gary were present most of the time. Another conferee was Mr. Hawkins. one of Mr. Morgan's partners. The Amalgamated officials directed their attention almost entirely to Mr. Morgan and President Schwab. They went over ths grounds on which ths strike began and discussed a settlement basis. After exchanging views with the steel officials Mr. Shaffer and Mr. Williams left the office. It is believed that Iiefore the end of tbe week the three mills will sll be ready to run cgaln. providing repairs undertaken since the strike began are done. Should the whole project fail of coming to an amicable end. however, the flght promises to be more bitter than ever.

Washington, July 30.—Mr. Rockhill has reported to tbe state department that the negotiation in Pekin will cloiie within two weeks with a signatory protocol by all of the poweits. The Russian government has sigul- ried Us intention of not further pressing tiie question at present ot the eventual Increase of the Import customs duties beyond 5 per cent (the present figure). It Is agreed that ln case the revenues of China are not sufficient for the payment of Interest ..nd principal the powers are to ex- it. ine the revenues and determine what changes are necessary ln order to supply the deficiency. The Imperial maritime customs are to be included ln this arrangement. The British minister is satisfied with this arrangement, and the whole iiiii'stinn of financial measures Is therefore settled. The 450,000,000 taels, constituting the indemnity, are to be converted Into gold at the equivalent of the tael value on the 1st of last April. In case the Import duties are subsequently Increased the free list will have to be abolished, except for cereals; hut It Is understood that compensation will in that case be asked for, probably the financial participation of China in even the water approaches of Shanghai and Tientsin. All the principal points of the negotiations are now settled, and it is ex pected that the results will be summarized in She final protocol within two weeks, and that all the powers will become signatories. , In connection with the Indemnity payments a question has arisen whether the United States government will take Its share to be issued by China In American gold or in pounds sterling. The disposition of .us government Is to take the bonds ln the form that will be the least inconvenient to the Chinese government, and in the Interest of uniformity it ls probable that the payments will be paid In pounds sterling.

The buffalo grass ranges are excel.eu. and there ls plenty of feed for the stock. Rain that fell ln Cowley county will Insure a fourth of a crop of corn, accorumg to a dispatch from Winfleld. In Wellington, during a severe rainstorm llghtni..? struck a cookhouse belonging to a threshing outfit and two men were fatally Injured. The rain was tbe most general in the eastern part of the state, which needed it the most. The sale of garden deeds in the state has been phenomenal. Farmers purchased large quantities ot turnips, sorghum and rye to seed for forage. Many farmers have expressed their intention of planting large fields of turnips. The estimates of the probable yield of corn range all the way from seven to twenty bushels to the acre. No more spasmodic efforts to sell stock will, be made. The farmers are now satis'ued to hold the stock until the prices get better, being confident of tbeir ability to obtain enough feed for them now While the rain came too late to be of great benefit to the grain, it practically Insured a large fruit crop. Apples and pears are getting in bad condition, but now, with anything like favorable conditions, they will make a large crop. The Kansas apple crop is in tine condition and tbe product promises to be of as fine a variety as has ever been known in the state. The fruit surprised the horticulturists by the way in which lt endured the severe dry spell. The cities of the state will gain great benefit from the rain. In some places the sewer sysieuis had gotten Into bad condition though the lack of water to wash them" out. They have now been fully flushed and a better state of things will result. An ice famine, which was staring some of the cities in the face, has now been averted by the cooler weath er. Water bas been supplied ln generous quantities, buildings have received a thorough wetting and the danger from fire Is lessened tenfold.

The rain was a steady, drizzling one and lasted, In imst places, for three or four hours. The parched earth absorbed the . jlsture as fast as lt fell. While the recent rains have covered central and southwestern Kansas, they have not touched the northern counties up to within the, last 24 hours.

A cut or any injury to the flesh heals in a few days, nature supplying the healing balm in the form of healthy, new mood; but when the circulation is tainted with poisouous germs, humors or any effete matter, a slight scratch or abrasion of the skin becomes a festering sore, tiny pimples grow to be boils, swollen joints and inflamed glands often break out into offensive, slow healing sores. A polluted blood is always a menace to health ; not only does it keep the skin in a chronic state of inflammation, but every organ ana fibre of tbe body suffers from an impure and sluggish circulation. You never feel well, you are not and never can be well until thc system is relieved of its terrible load of impurities. With the blood so contaminated, so deeply poisoned, ulcers, boils and sores of every kind are apt to become chronic and often develop into Cancer. Sores and ulcers are most _. — . . .

Jack Williams, of No. 401 Del*. ware street, says the Kansas City, Mo., Journal, ia well known as an enterprising news agent and a thoroughly reliable man. He had been a sufferer from kidney trouble and endured much pain from it until recently, when he tried Dr. Williams' Fink Pills for Pale People and with such success that within a short time he was entirely and permanently cured. To a reporter he said: "For two years I had pains in the back constantly, causing me serious inconvenience. But I did not attempt to do anything for my complaint until the latter part of laat winter, when I saw an advertisement of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and decided to see what they would do lor me. I waa relieved within one week alter I began taking them; the pains disappeared and ao complete was the cure that I have not found it necessary to take further treatment nor have I been troubled at all by the disease since." Kidney complaint is an insiduoul disease. First come almost unnoticed pains in the back and some slight inconvenience. The pains grow gradually worse and the inconvenience greater till finally, if not given medical treatment, the person suffers awful torture and becomes unfit to follow his ordinary occupation. Blood poisoning sets in, the constitution ie wrecked and death often results. Mr. William stook the one unfailing remedy and was readily cured within a few weeks. His statement waa sworn to Iiefore Lionel Moise, a notary public, and the facts above will bear the most searching investigation. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People will not only effect a cure in cases similar to the one above, but, acting directly upon the blood and nerves, are an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, after effects of the grip, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions and all forms of weakness either in male or female.
