Quite a number of-our old residents are preening their wings and preparing for a flight to scenes and pastures new. Down the Yukon seems to be. the favorite direction. Amongst others may be named Dr. C. Lewis and W. R. Dockrill, who intend starting next Saturday for Circle City. Fred. . Fortin, Syd Aitken and George Rice, the last- named one of the best known and inost successful hotel men in the north, are going to look up that city also, and possibly may push on to the Tanana country, from which good mining reports are being consistently received. We wish them alt success in their new spheres of influence, and, if'Atlin does not Tendered to A. W. Shiels at Hotel Grand on the Eve of His Departure for the Coast. On Monday evening, . at the Grand Hotel,-a complimentary banquet was tendered to Archie -W. ���^hiels, Esq., late.manager . for the British America Corporation's Atlin branch, previous' to \"his departure for Vancouver. Punctually at eight o'clock the chair was -taken by Gold Commissioner Graham, the guest of the evening sitting oir-his right. . Twenty-six gentlemen sat down to the table. The menu was first-class and fully up to the best traditious of the Grand. After the abundance ofgood -things-was-done ample'justice to, the chairman'pro-' posed the Queen,' followed by, Our Guest. In a.few well-chosen sentences the speaker rendered testimony to the high esteem in which Mr. Shiels is universally held here and the regret occasioned by his departure. Mr.- Shiels, in responding, said he was sorry to bave to leave such pleasant associations and the many warm friends he had made here. 'On going to the coast any thing lie could .do to advance the district's interests he would cheerfully'do. Toasts and speeches followed in rapid successiou until the party broke up about 12 o'clock'. On the following afternoon Mr. Shiels left by -the Scotia and the wharf was crowded with friends to see him off. A NEAT ESTABLISHMENT. Jules Eggert & Son, the Swiss watchmakers, have now got their commodious establishment on First St. in full running order. A full line of all the latest, up-to-date machinery required for a manufacturing jeweller is in place. A very pleasant and instructive visit can be made by any one so inclined,. the proprietors courteously showing and explaining the uses of the various machines, which are really very wonderful in their operations. Whilst the visitor waits he cat) have a nickel run out into a ribbon a couple of feet long or drawn into a wire of indeterminate length.

M. ��� Jaune de Laniare has just returned from -a three days' trip to the Laniare Syndicate Hydraulic mine on Boulder Creek. 'During M. Lamare.'s visit to \"Paris, where the stock of- the Syndicate ,is mostly held, Mr. Christopher, the well- known 'mining manager, .assumed full charge, of ' the construction work, which isv now completed, \" to M.'Lam'are's complete satisfaction , Boulder Creek has been showing up- well/ lately. The individual miners -.report _ ver3r favorably of their gold returns and the finding of'a nugget- vyeighing 48 oz. 12 dwt, by1 Messrs. Clarke and Su- i therland, iu .the vicinity of ' the j property \"-of the S}rndicale, makes a record for the district which is sure to be\" beaten when the hvdrau- licTgiarits get to\"work.\" \"This\"nugget' was on exhibition at the Bank of' Halifax for some da3's. It is clean cut,\" without any. quartz, and and ,is a solid, compact piece about the size of a clenched fist. The nugget will be sent to Paris shortly, where the shareholders in the Lamare s)Midicate will no doubt view it with extreme interest, coming as it does .from the creek 011 which their mine lies. Accompanying the same on its long trip will be photographs of the men who uncovered it, their depositions and likewise the deposition of the Gold Commissioner, Mr. Graham, as evidence of its having been taken \"from Boulder Creek, Atlin District. These will be published in M. Lamare's journal, in Paris, at 116 distant date, and will doubtless serve lo dispel any suspicion that may arise as to its having come from Dawson, or any other mining camp outside of Atlin. Our mining reporter- intends paying a special visit to Boulder on Monday and a full description of the creek and mining operations thereon will appear in our next To 'Be Installed on the Engineer Group on Taku Ann. Krom the Engineer on Taku Arm, comes the cheering intelligence that prospects are-so favor-, able that the company have decided to install a 20rstamp mill as a start- er. In a conversation with Mr. Faull, who has just visited the locality and who' is most favorably impressed with what he saw, rwe learn that the Engineer possesses two ledges, oue of the\" 'enormous width of 72 feet, clear, mineralized quarts,from side to side, the other is a distinct vein of apparently the same quality and '15 feet r across from wall to wall. One assay from chippings across the large ledge gave $30 per ton in gold. If this rate . could .ouiy be maintained, \" then tlie Engineer, with its vast, bulk of ore,, would be the ban ler mine of the world. Rich telluride. ore occurs iu places. Samples of this, when roasted, show speckled all over with points of gold quice visible to the naked eye. Should this property, live 'up ..to half its present promise and be worked for all it is 'worth,,it will give-permanent - employment to Tiuudreds of men and scores, perhaps hundreds, . of stamps, -and a live, prosperous town jon Taku Arm will follow as a matter of course.' . . . GOLD-RUN. Locators on the new rush at Gold. Run are ' being granted lay-overs until the end of September. Water is verj' troublesome in' the deep ground at this time of the year, and Gold Run is essentially a drifting proposition. When the frosts set in, work will be vigorousljr prosecuted, and a large number of meu will find \" \"profitable employment during\" the long winter months. , AT NICKERSON'S.

' The Imperial group on Monro Mountain still keeps on shipping good ore to the Anaconda, stamp mill. ' The drift to tap the ledge at the'i 20 foot level has discovered a large body of good quartz, as expected. With such a guarantee of quality and permanence the agent for the Niirrod Syndicate, Mr. Fetherstonhaugh, is making arrangements to piit up a ro-stamp mill at the Falls on Pine Creek. A road has been built io the proposed mill site, giving -an easy grade for the transit of ore. IMPORTANT DEAL. , Messrs. Dr. Troughtou, E.

C. Review, July. FORMALLY OPENED. With Concert. Ball and Supper the Handsome New Provincial Government Buildings Are Opened to the Public. ���Despite the persistent rain and ,sogginess of.the weather, the formal opening of the new Government buildings brought out everybody who claims to be anybody, and at the starting hour the hall appointed for the concert was filled to overflowing. Three stage loads found their way dowu from Pine and added to the already vast assemblage. , For some time the Gold Commissioner and his deputies, aided by the deft fingers of lady volunteers,-have been at work decorating the,, hall and the restilt.{at- tained vas charming. Flags tastefully .festooned around, the-room and ��� a liberal display of Chinese lanterns, transformed it into a thing of beauty. At 9 o'clock Mr. Graham opened proceedings by an altogether too brief speech. A long concert followed, in which nearly all of the old rtalent aud a good deal of the new presented their specialties to an appreciative and applauding audience. All the old performers are too well-known'to require any> particular- notice iii1 this connection, suffice it to say they were up to their usual high standard. Those who appeared for the first time before an Atlin audience were Mrs. E. M. N. Woods, who played a piano solo in a style artistic to a degree. Liltle Miss Pill- man proved herself-quite an elocutionist, possessing a winning manner and a thorough grasp of .the meaning of her part. Mr. Des Brisay sang a, couple of songs \"in good style as did also Mr.. ^Van Welt. .The latter gentlemanvwjbuld be a first-rate catch for one of .our local choirs, as he possesses .-a bass voice of . imposing. vdlume-;-;|and which shows considerable training.' Her nainsel', Cot pless her, was there with the pipes, \"and made them skirl, till roof and rafters a' did dirt,\" evoking many, a} \"hooch\" from the enthusiastic'Scotchmen present. Mr. Henning gave the audience \"a taste, of his quality*as a guitarist as did Mr. Lear as ���\"man- dolinist. Both, scored successes. Mr. Brackett kindly .gave a choice lot of selections on his immense Edison gramophone. It was a revelation to many present and formed a very agreeable feature of the entertainment. Messrs. McFeely and Lecappellain wound up the- concert part with their never-to-besuffi- ciently admired rendition of the cake walk. The costuming of Mr. McFeely was\" superb and was gotten up under the supervision of Mrs. J. H. Brownlee.
