GREENWOOD. B.C.. FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 1901. No. 45 KNOB HILL UNIQUE ORE QUARRIES ON THE BIG MINING PROPERTY. CAPABLE OF GIVING Enormous Tonnage of Ore���Description of Underground Workings of Granby Mines- it is almost impossible/for any one who has not visited andseen for himself the big- open cuts at the Knob Hill mine to form an'adequate idea of the extent and astonishing- productiveness of these unique ore quarries. Even those who from time to time have seen them can scarcely realize the enormous tonnage of ore they are capable of giving. Seen from above'they do tiotim- press the visi.or today too-nything like ���the extent they will -do after the-' big ���cut now being made from the level of -the Knob Hill railway spur shall have, .some time hence, been advanced into the hill and so give a face of ore, the like of which it may be confidently asserted, is not now to be found anywhere else in Canada, and is not.likely to be ���for a long while. 1} will be two or three years, in all probability before -this open cut or quarry will.have a;face the full depth available, for the distance-front the starting place of the new \"working, below the Dig- dump \"of ore -taken out in running- the long tunnel into the Knob Hill, back to the most -southerly face of-the, quarry, may be -roughly stated at about 800 or 900 -feet. From the highest point of the present rock-face down to where the ���ore is now shot down /.'.the inclined, shafts to the main tunnel below is about 60 feet, and these shafts are ISO ieet on the incline, so that from the top of the rock-face referred to down to the tunnel level is somewhere about \"200 feet vertical depth. Then the raii- Tvay track level is about 30 feet lower -still, so there is a good margin allowed in these approximated depths when the ���vertical height of ore that will be available above the railway track level -is stated at 200 feet. As to its width, -well that can only be surmised by the writer, in the absence of an opening -rig-hit across it, but it is surely more than enough for the present to state -that the prospective surface workings of the Knob Hill mine give an avail- -- able- mass-of- ore���wide-enough^f or,_a railway track and room for a\"steam shovel to work on each side to loadthe *x>re cars, and with an eventual vertical ' iace of 200 feet of ore. Now this will -.read like fiction, but the rock and the ....gradually extending workings are there SCHOOL j.'**-*.��� M ,���-*���- 'mi M Supplies. ���\\Vc liave in stock a complete lino of all the newly ;uit,lio-i/.t*il text books, ulso (A && SLATES, SCRIBBLERS, xHm&y-s> ETC. \"Onr prices ate right and you can save tnouey by buying your school suiSpHes from to be seen by anyone and everyone, the only condition being that no one will attempt to take away the whole \"shooting match\" in his pocket. In all seriousness, the sight is the most impressive in connection with the mining industry to be seen in the Boundary. Nor is this all, for it must be kept in mind that the level of the Knob Hill tunnel, which is taken as the base of the above picture, is above the collar of the shaft of the adjoining mines, which have large stopes opened at a a level 200 feet still lower, that is to saj- that were the 200-foot level of the* Victoria and Old Ironsides run far enough south -to come vertically under the farthest south open ore face on the Knob Hill it would give a depth approximately of between 400 and 500 feet of ore,���it may be deeper. And since the width is not even hinted at here except to now state that it is very wide, it may be claimed in all reasonableness that in describing this mass of ore as \"enormous'.'-there is no exaggeration nor the possibility of misleading. There is this' ���further remark to make���the \"imit of depth is by no means reached, for time and much more work alone will tell how deep the ore goes. So it is that-those who think word pictures such as this is.are untrue and uot warranted \"by the; conditions that exist are simply unable to conceive the extent of' the mineral resources of this single group of Boundary mines and need nothing short of ocular demonstration to convince them that it is their limited powers of conception rather than the writers imagination that is at fault. As to the value���well it must be taken for granted, that since the Granby company is still, as it has been doing for. months, sending to the smelter without preliminary sorting the whole of the rock broken down in this extensive quarry, it contains sufficient value to make its extraction and treatment a source of profit, else would the management have ere how ceased hauling it fornix. . The undergrotirid workings of the Granby mines form too big a subject for more than passing mention in a notice giving the impressions of a visit of only an hour or so's duration, so nuthitig in the direction of a description of them will be attempted just now. It may be stated that about the surf ace of the group many evidences of substantial progress are to be seen. A commencement has been made to sink what will eventually be a flve-compart- men t shaft���the main working shaft of the group. A 5x5 Bacon hoist was this week placed in position for doing such preliminary work as hoisting rock and lowering timbers for-the time being in sinking this shaft. A more impor- tatrt-jtWitio^ the mines- plant ,is the timber-framing Inacriirie which should by this time be in operation,' its installation having been practically completed when the mines were, visited early this .week. It is a single end timber framer complete with wedge sawing machine and having a swinging cut-off saw. It is driven by a 45-horse power Meyers cut-off engine which, together with all shafting, pulleys, etc., was manufactured by the Jenckes Machine company, which sup. plied the whole plant.. '. The timber framer and carriage were made by the Denver Engineering Works and obtained by the Jenckes people from the manufacturers. This new plant is housed in. a well-built sawn lumber building, the engine being bedded on a solid rock foundation underneath and the framer on the floor above. A railway track has been run along the front of the building and alongside a strong skidway on which the timbers will be landed and rolled down to.the carriage at the lower side whence they will be run on a tram to the framer. The mines are maintaining a comparatively large output, occasionally sending 1,000 tons a day to the smelter. Ly is evideut that a larger daily output can be kept up whenever the smelter shall be in shape to treat it. THE OLD FLAG PATRIOTIC GATHERING AT MOTHER LODE MINE ON SUNDAY. BRITISH ENSIGN HOISTED On Flag Staff at the Mine���Patriotic Speeches by Jno. A- Macdonald and Others. There was something of a jubilation at the Greenwood smelter last Sunday to celebrate the conclusion of the first six months' run of the furnace. Of course there was no stoppage of smelting operations, but the boys found time to put away, a couple of kegs of beer. Take your prescriptions to the Windsor Drug Store, W*. E. Anderson, Greenwood. An interesting gathering toook place at the Mother Lode mine last Sunday evening in connection with the hoisting for the first time of a large new British ensign some of the patriotic workers at the mine.had purchased for display on all suitable occasions. These enthusiastic supporters of our country's flag were not content with ihe small flag that had hitherto been flown from the mine flag-staff on holidays and at such other times as called for a display of bunting, so.; they decided to purchase, by,, subsctiption among themselves, a flag the size of which would better accord with their desires to do honor to the colors of the land of their birth or adoption. Lately a flag, of bunting, 9 feet by 18 feet was received and it was arranged to mark the occasion of its first flying on' the mine flagstaff by some little, ceremony. Accordingly Mr. Frederic Keffer, general manager of the British Columbia Cop->er company, and Mrs. Keffer, were invited to be present on the auspicious occasion, and with them went Miss Keffer, of Cleveland, Ohio, who is at present the guest of her brother and Mrs. Keffer. Mr.7R. H. Hutchens, mine superintendent, * and Mrs. Hutchens,-.were also guests of \"theboys.\". The only press representative present was Master Robert Keffer editor, printer, publisher and general factotum of the Anaconda News, consequently that diminutive publication secured a\"'-scoop\" much to tl.e delight of its 3'outhful proprietor. However, the Times has succeeded in obtaining particulars of the proceedings, as follows: At -ha'f. past seven o'clock on the evening above mentioned, between 100 arid 200 persons assembled around the flag-staff, in front of the mine dining hall, to take either an active or passive part in the programme that had been arranged (by request) by John A. Macdonald, formerly of Toronto, but' for jsome^time^past a resident in Frederic- ton, which is the designati6n\"y>f~ the village at the mine. Mr. Macdonald is somewhat of a genius in the direction of speech-making and on this occasion this poetical orator, who at every suitable opportunity delightsthebovs with his flow of words, had carte blanche to indulge his fancy and exercise his pleasing faculties, and it must be said, in common justice to him, that he succeeded admirably, rising to the occasion and infusing a patriotic enthusiasm into the proceedings that added greatly to their impressivenessand importance. His opening oration was distinctly appropriate and interesting, treating of (1) The Flag���its uses; (2) The Flags of the Children of Israel when they left Egypt; (3) \"The Flag of Old Rome��� Spor. the meaning; the Senate and people of Rome; (Here he recited \"It's Only an Old Bit.of Bunting;\") (4) The Color Sergeant at Televera who, mortally wounded, rolled himself up in the flag and then died: (5) The Brazilian railway engineer-in-chief at the time of the revolution, when the armed bands came to the camps they ited the British flag; (Another recitt .on, \"'The Flag We Have Learned to i.ove;\") (7) Johnson's narrow escape in Cuba, when the British flag saved him; am' (7) The blowing up of the gates of Casrmeer. The oration concluded, the fl; j- was hoisted. In the words of one who w_ls an active participator in the proceedings, \"As the grand old emblem rose slowly up the pole more than ahuudred voices joined in the sweet strains of 'Rule Britannia,' and as it reached the niizzen peak and spread itself put languidly on the quiet evening air three rousing cheers and a 'tiger' were given for the emblem of liberty.\" Continuing, the- enthusiastic scribe tells of the after proceedings as follows: The joyous crowd then adjourned to the Mother Lode hall where a sumptous repast was spread. For over an hour busy tongues played an accompaniment to the plying of knives and forks. Then the chairman, Mr. Macdonald, rose to order and the business of drinking toasts began. Toast No. 1, \"The King,\" with one verse of the National Anthem, was responded to by J. A. Crawford. No. 2, \"The President of the United States,\" by Mr. Keffer. No. 3, -'The object uf our gathering/' by J. A. McKinnon, who for nearly twenty minutes entertained his hearers with his sparkling wit. No. 4,'\"The Union Jack and the Stars and Stripes,\" by B. Mclntyre. No. 5, \"The social aspect of our gathering,\" by Mr. Burt. No. 6, \"The cherishing of our National Seutimenl,\" by *A. H. F. Meyer. No. 7, \"Our Mining Industries,\" by Mr. Hutchens; and last, but not least, the eighth on the lint, ''The Ladies,\" responded to by Messrs. Wilson, McCelland, Sophie and Graham. These four young gentlemen handled their subject in a manner which showed plainly where their hearts were. A few words spoken by Mrs. Keffer in that lady's usual kind manner were much appreciated by her audience j_s- Were also the addresses of one or two other ladies present. At eleven o'clock' the happy company, after singing the National Anthem, dispersed. As they wended their way homeward under the brilliant arc lights, Britain's Ensign, which still hung at the top of the staff, bent gracefully downward as if it would fain embrace .all who passed beneath its drooping folds. SMELTER CLOSED BEAVERDELL RENDELL AND BEAVERTON ON WEST FORK AMALGAMATED BY JOINT STOCK COMPANY Townsite Owners Decide to Build One Good Town on West Fork���A Promising Outlook. To Make Necessary Repairs After a Splendid Record. After a most successful run of six months it has been found necessary; to shutdown for a few days the blast furnace at the British Columbia Copper company's smelter, at Greenwood, so as to'allow of the brickwork forming the upper part of the furnace being renewed, the bricks being so afiected by the continuous heat as to have made their replacement imperative. The furnace was blown out yesterday afternoon and today bricklayers commenced to make the requisite renewals. It is claimed for this single furnace that ithas made the .-.best record, as re- gaads daily average tonnage.of. ore ���treated, \"known in.the history of copper smel ti n g. Dun rig five mbnth^to July Hit its average of ure t/eated was i71 tons a day. Latterly the average has been materially increased, that for the month of July having been 385 tons per day. \"\"The\"closing dowti-of-thesntelter-=has involved a similar, temporary suspension of work at the Mother Lode mine, where all the men directly engaged in stoping and raising ore have also been laid off. The mine ore bins are all filled, ,as too, are most of those at the smelter, where there is now only room for the ore that is coming in daily from from the B. C. mine, in which shipments there will not be any interruption. A few men are still employed at timbering and other mine work requiring to be done. It is definitely promised that work will be resumed next Wednesday or Thuasday. Meanwhile thc re-nairs at the smelter will be executed as expeditiously as possible, and it is intended to blow in the furnace again on Thursday, or earlier if practicable. The erection of the second furnace, already arranged for, will in the future obviate the necessity for a similar total suspension, even for alike brief period, of orerreductioii works, for with two furnaces.Vrepairs, when necessary, can be made to one'.whilst the other continues ini operation. It is now Beaverdell. There is no more Beaverton or Reudell. The two towns of the West Fork country whose proximity to each other threatened to endanger the future of both have been amalgamated in name and in fact. Beaverdell is,, as will be noticed, a union of the first part of Beaverton and the last of Rendell. The combination does notstrikeone as beiruras jcood aseithey'_Sei-.ver-v.-_ot-ji-.��.u4kc-i,i_iaite^. a town has grown to greatness handicapped by a: worse name than Beaverdell. ���;- The amalgamation assures a flourishing centre-on the West Fork if the country is going to amount to anything and all the signs in a mining district are valueless or the West Fork is going to become one of the most important mining sections of the province. *A - company has been incorporated under the name of the Beaverdell Town- site company, limited, to take over all the land owned by the Rendell town- site, ; the Wheatley pre-empti-*-n and Mrs. Thompson's pre-emption or. the townsite of Beaverton. All the land has been Crown:granted.' There is about 700 acres available for townsite purposes.

Kerr Houlgate, of Vancouver, and. C. G. Honge, of .Nelson, came in last Saturday night, in connection with the recent deal under which the lines of the Columbia Telephone'company pass into fresh hands. On the face of it the business has the appearance of the Vernon and Nelson Telephone company having acquired the opposition company's telephone system, but the above-mentioned gentlemen are very particular to inform people that such is not the case. It matters little to the public of the Boundary district who has con trol =of=the^ Col um bia-- S3* stem, -but-, what residents are interested in is whether there will be amonoplyornot. They must have faith, though, in the assurances given, until they see whether G. C. Hodge, as district manager for the Vernon & Nelson company, will compete very keenly with G. C. Hodge, as district manager for the Columbia Telephone company's successors. Meanwhile, as an earnest of the genuineness of the competition, an advance in telephone rents may be looked for. %? J. R. Brown, of McLeod & Brown, barristers, Greenwood, returned to the city on jast Wednesday night's train, afterjan\\absence. in, the east of about seven wteelrs. Before returning Mr. Brown spent a&hort time at the Pan- Americaa Exposition, Buffalo, where he was mucrti impressed with the value of Ontario's exhibit as an effective advertisement of the resources,^ especially agricultural and mineral, of that enterprising province.

Foster, the then minister of finance, was there as ���was also Sir Wilfrid Laurier, then leader of the opposition. They ���were to be the two principal speakers of the evening. Mr. Poster was first and he spoke for over two hours, quoting innumerable figures and statistics to prove that Canada was prosperous and to convince his wearied hearers that they were, really enjoying good times. Mr.-Foster spoke so long that there was a strong suspicion' - that -in addition to demonstrating'the prosperity of : the ��� country,. he .also .wanted to talk against time and thus prevent Sir ^Wilfrid ��� from delivering , '��� \"'theuteiiiiakfeiafld^ *: ,dbubtless^a^i77i3. i^e.'hour7 -a.as; ���������:.���.-so.rlate;vtlis-t; S'irTWilfrid refrained from making :aspeeG-i, but in a few. words he knocked Mr. Foster's labored effort into a Cocked hat and made a. better impression with the audience than would hours of oratory. \"When I am in power,\" he said, \"it will not be necessary to quote figures to prove that you are prosperous. You can put your hands in your pockets and know it.\" ��� This incident, illustrates the method the Conservatives had of endeavoring to persuade the people that business aiid the country's progress was satisfactory. In 1891 when the census was taken, the same' system was adopted. Factories and industries of all kinds were plentiful in the bulletins issued by the census bureau but comparatively scarce in reality The padding of the 1891 makes the 1901 census a dissappointment. , The increase was not what was expected.' Notwithstanding the ------fact-that^th e comparison between over the mountains between the Columbia -river and the Boundary couutry at reasonable rates, the Times, should not expect ' the V., V. & E. will haul freight over Hope mountains at reasonable \" rates? The Times expects but little from any railway corporation but it does claim that if railways are forced to build over mountains instead of following the natural highways, the extra cost of running mountain railways will be paid by the users. We do not know what the Hon. Edgar Dewdney will discover in the Hope mountains. He may. find a pass that will obviate the necessity for climbing over the mountains, but we do know that the silly cry against American roads, if successful, would force thepeople intopatronizingnothing ade mountain roads Southern British Columbia. companies smelters to charge mines and *!������{'���!������!��*�����*!'*!������!����������*!������*';***!��� *!{.##��������#���!������##���* ^.Uf*-5Sf4^.H^.^'^��**ts��*it>*t--^^^i-j.*:-#��f^it(*��f^ the smelter' * custom rate for treating their own ores but must put in returns of the actual cost of smelting, so that a fine is placed upon companies enterprising enough to build smelters so that a profit may accrue from their low grade ores. The Tribune states that \"working- mines at'a loss is ruinous to province a owners and gives the bad name.\" Quite true. But working mines at a small margin of profit.is. a good thing all round and this would in many cases, be possible were it not for the des- criminating operations of, the two per cent. tax. but high in Nature, in her wisdoni,.' knew no International boundary line and made her. natural ��� highways without refer ance to the 49th parallel or the advocates or the C. P. R. TRACKMEN'S STRIKE. EDITORIAL NOTES. the 1901 and 1891 figures is not as was hoped for, the country has had a healthy growth. In the west particularly, the population has greatly incrc.i- ed, the country has been satisfaelo-ily developed and the outlook 7. bright. Had the 1891 census been honestly., given, the percentage of growth would have been, satisfactory, but the errors of ten years ago cannot destroy the growing time. Canada is all right.. With its wealth of natural resources, with an enterprising people and with a' business government; the census of 1911 will tell a different story. The Canadian Pacific railway is described as Canada's national highway. It has been aided and .encouraged'by^:pubUc money itntil there is scarcely a .-place of ratty importance .in'the: whole coutrtry. that cannot be reached by thej/C. P. R. Under suck circumstances the public ^|a-ye a)X direct interest in anything tha|y retards ; traffic, on the system, that makes' it dangerous and generally disarranges trade _ throughout -the country. For weeks the trackmen on the C. P. R. have been out on strike. They want higher wages. The trackmen may have been badly advised in their strike. They had to contend with all the forces of a powerful company who used all the newspapers controlled by them and* the C. P. R. telegraph system for endeavoring to create a prejudice against the striking men. There is one fact that stands out in connection with the strike, and that is that the trackmen in the west do not get a living wage. . A man can't keep a family on $1.30 a day in- B. C. and pay the C. P./R. from $5 to $10 a month house rent. Chinamen may be able to' do it but a whi teaman-hasn't4he,the capacity for economizing to this extent. The strike has caused vexatious delays to business men and others using the C, P. R. Travelling on the road is risky, trains are late, goods are delayed.- General business is suffering. The men and the company; so far have been unable to reach an agreement. - In the interests.'.of. the public the government should step in and adjust the matter. Jno. A. Ma.cdona.ld is to be congratulated upon the success atteMitig his efforts in connection with the 'patriotic gathering at the Mothef vLode.;: Like his great natnesakejie proclaimed his love for the old flag under which Canadians have been, contented and happy. .

IF YOU WANT A: SUIT OF GLOTHES FOR LABOR RAILWAY GRADES. The editorial utterances of the Tribune are all awry these days. In the days of John's greatness the Tribune was sound on all questions but under the new order of things, the labored effort to prove. that railway monopolies and discriminating taxes are right show that an inexperienced hand is at the helm. It requires some capacity and considerable experience to write in the interest of corporations. The Tribune never had that kind of capacity and there has not been sufficient time to acquire the necessary experience. The result is a lack of cogency- and consistency.

Having anuounced the celebration, however, they could do nothing but make the biggest and. best holiday ever celebrated in lhe Boundary. The leading citizens of Phoenix admit that their holding, a celebration is a mistake but a few hot-heads and sore-heads succeeded in having their way. There is nothing but the best feeling between-Greenw.ood-.and JPhpenix and we hope it may continue. Next year we do not think the double celebration will be repeated but Greenwood and Phoenix will have different celebration days. It is too much to expect however, tqat the chief town of the district is going to allow the other towns to take all the holidays and leave Greenwood without a celebration at all. \" ���\"*\"*' Union C0.T0- ���*; .FASHIONABLE TAILORS. -^^PATRONIZE HOME INDUStRY^^��� CIGAR.

Its next meeting was held at Midway, where Tom McAuley \"treated them white\" and last time the veterans met it was at Camp McKinney, with Hughie Cameron brewing their liquor for them.

P age THE &.REENWOOD WEEKLY TIMES. CURIOUS CRITICISM. Th* Colonist Pol.cs Fun at Smith Curtis- Disc* very. The coast papers have been making; much of the statement that Smith Gurtis, M. P. P., had on his ovm accord found a pass through \"the Hope mountains and that he had recorded the fact together with ti leather suggestive Avaniitlg' \"and d-on'tyou forget it.\" Coast papers,<*ff all shades of politics have -been seriously discussing the matter with the result that the enterprising member for Rossland has been proved a pathfinder!}' one aud a charlatan by thc other. Even thc venerable Colonist has been mixed in the matter with the result that it gives half a column of flippantly funny nonsense, that during these ���dayscan be read without profit but with, considerable diversion. The Colonist says: An ancient poem records the{ fact that The King of France With twice ten thousand men \"Marched up thc hill, and then��� Marched down again. \"We do not know what particular king of Prance performed this ever-to-be-remembered deed, but .Mr. Smith Curtis takes no chances of being forgotten. He walked up th.e hill and down* again,- and inscribed the fact upon a tree, adding the warning to all succeeding generations, \"And don't you forget it.\" For some years past ���we have been occasio : ally reminded of a certain immortal sweet Alice, but in her case the legend ������' is \"Don't you remember,\" and she alas now lies under a stone of grey granite. Our latest hero is very much alive, and no Ben Bolt will -have to be reminded of his existence. The hour is ripe, we suggest for some poet to arise and ���;give to the world,a ballad of- his ���great achievement. Our own poetical licence has expired or we should attempt something after this style: \"'And don't you forget it,\" Smith Curtis he said, Smith Curtis who sought route for rail, As he wrote down the date on a blazed cedar tree HVhich stands near the old Dewdnej- . -.tail. The theme is a wide and inspiring one. We suppose that uot ar. ore than several thousand people .Ifc-ctfj.. gone over Hope mountains \"��betw.een the beginning, of the .���woiil'd and the date of these presents, as we used to say in the old guarantee deeds, but not one of \"thesrn has essayed to achieve a .-glorious immortalit)* with the aid < b��-aa. \"axe .and a lead pencil. The t&Gi&^ar -less immortal George \"Washington has gone down to posterity because of a performance ��� .of his -with a hatchet on a cherry 7t**fc. It is not record^ tkat '���M-reorge expressed in lead pencil on the freshly cut wood a desire that his deed should not be forgotten, ��� Jbslt he Jived.. in_j?_ther_days jthan Jhese. He had to trust to the ���memorj of his countrymen, but if ;Mr. 'Curtis had done it, he would '.'h_av.e{discounted his immortality, :a.i3Jd ^enjoyed it in advance. ''������.What-sail the world to a man, ..when, his wife's a widow?\" asked the gentleman from Cork. Of what value to a man is it to have ��� .some one a century or so after he has gone out of the world dis- . cover-something that he has done and make a fuss over it. The time to be immortal is when you are around to enjoy the sensation. Thus Mr. Smith Curtis has been truly wise in his day and generation in writing his wish not to be forgotten upon the highest, point he could find. If time and space would permit, we wouid attempt to portray the event. Doubtless \"'the shades of night were falling Fasfvvhen the man from Rossland .inscribed*-..is strange device\" upon the side of a tree. He bore no banner. No maiden begged him to \"Stay and rest Thy weary head upon this breast.'' He feared not \"the pine tree's withered branch;\" he scorned \"the -'vrfui avalanche,\" as with one eye on the summit' of the trail ���and the other on political possibilities he. like (.ray's ploughman, pioddod hi**, weary way. And the name- of the mountain was Hope, aud .*-������;���. the summit ._���*._ y&m. #S- j*g<*. *&m. _���&�� f.K. GRAND LABOR DAY reenwoo ���5x NOTICE OF FORFEITURE. To J. A.

At the Queen's hotel during the last few days has been stopping Mr. Robert Wood of Greenwood, B. C. Mr. Wood, who is now a man of between'50 at-d 60 years of age, is one of the sturdy, courageous, far-seeing pioneers who several decades ago left the East to lay the foundations of Canada's growing industrial empire on the Pacific coast. Mr. Wood was in the Cariboo gold rush in the early sixties, and has\" been identified with the opening up of several districts of - interior British Columbia. One of the greatest monuments to his far-sightedness is the populous and busy town of Greeuwood which is liamed after him. Less than ten years ago Mr. Wood went into the narrow canyon of the Boundary creek, in Southern British Columbia, and, at a point where the trails from several important mining camps met, he started a general store in a log cabin. He cut down the woods around his shack and established a townsite. The mines developed apace, and the log cabin -before long became the nucleus of a little settlement. Then the C. P. R. came in, the mines were equipped with machinery, smelters were built, and now Greenwood is an up-to-date place of 3,000, boasts a dozen, hotels, an electric light plant and other modern conveniences. Mr. Wood was practically the original owner of the whole of the Greenwood townsite, and he always has his hands full of various enterprises relating to the development of the country around Greenwood! In fact his visit to Toronto is merely an incident in a journey he is making to England with a view to furthering some of these enterprises. Among these enterprises is the Vancouver arid Boundary Creek Mining and Development company, limited, which owns a 1 arge number of gold, copper and coal properties in Southern British Columbia, aud especially on the West Fork of Kettle river. Here the company' has opened up a number of very promising propositions. Perhaps the biggest proposition' Mr. Wood has in hand just now ' is a plan for the construction of a line of railway joining.the C. P. R. at Midway with another branch of the C. P.'R. at Vernon. This line will run through a tract of valuable mineral country lying between Rock Creek and the head of the West Fork of -Kettle river, and would also make tributary to the Boundary a large ' area of agricultural land lying south of and around Vernon. Mr. Wood has a charter from the British Columbia, government for this line, and if it is built, as he hopes, Mr. Wood's plan'is to establish a ���smelter-at-Rock-Greek,=--where-he- already controls a large - sized block of coal lands. His idea is to bring the ores down from the West Fork of Kettle river to Rock Creek for treatment. Besides being important locally, this Midway-Vernon line would solve the problem of giving the Boundary country and Southeastern British Columbia a direct line to Vancouver and the Pacific coast. Another enterprise iu which Mr. Wood and colleagues are interested and have under way is hyraulicking on a large scale on Rock creek, which flows down from Camp McKinney into the Kettle river. They are building heavy dams and putting in automatic sluice gates, and expect to make a big thing when the equipment is completed. As is well known, Chinamen and others have for well nigh half a century successfully worked Rock creek placer diggings by hand. Mr. Wood will stay in Montreal a day or two on his wa}** to England, his object being to see Mr* Shaughnessy of the C. P. R. in connection with his proposed railway.���Toronto World. Enas McCormick who was connected with Butler's saddlery in this city for some time has purchased the business of R. E. Doran at Moose Jaw, _NT. W.T., and is prepared to quote prices for all kinds of harness, saddles, carriages and farm implements. * We carry the only Flannel Suitings in town.
