The Miner was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia. The Miner was established by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. After leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, Houston established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. The Miner was published by The Miner Printing and Publishing Company, and the paper's longest-serving editor was D. J. Beaton. The Miner was published under two variant titles, the Nelson Weekly Miner and the Weekly Miner. In 1902, the paper was sold to F. J. Deane, who changed the title to the Weekly News.

TRAGEDY IN MONTREAL. A Colored Woman Is Shot Without - .Reason. Montreal, June 14.���The colored society of Montreal is much excited over a shooting affray which took place at Mrs.���Johnson's���boardings house,~508 St. -James street. The victim was Mrs. Paris, the wife of George Paris, a well known amateur runner. He left for the Pacific coast yesterday and his wife spent the evening with a young man named William Wallace. They returned to Mrs. Johnson's at midnight and sat dowu in �� the parlor. Mra Paris became alarmed at the conduct of Wallace and ran out in the hall. As she did so Wallace drew a 32-calibre revolver and shot her near the right lung. The noise^attracted the police, who rushed in and arrested Wallace. The prisoner is about 30 years of age. He was perfectly cool and admitted that he did the shooting, giving no reason for it. Mrs. Paris was removed to the general hospital. ::* The doctors have been unable to extract the bullet and she is in a dangerous condition. All the parties concerned are colored. SPOTTED BY A WOMAN.

Then there was' the screech of the 'Marblehead's shells. She took a hand in the fight, and the sharp flash of a Celt rapid-firing one-pound gun from the ship's launches added to the scene. The Dolphin this morning located tho Spaniards water station on the ocean side of the harbor entrance,which supplied the water for the attacking force. The arrival cf the fleet to com pio te the bombardment-of tlie town and its defenses is expected this afternoon. Ottawa, June 14.���The supreme court this mornng dismissed the appeals of Ontario and Quebec in the matter of the arbitration in respect to thc common school fund lands. numbers from Santiago de Cuba. As it is they can probably - hold their position, but they cannot move forward until reinforced by the troops. What first, with the white tents on a bold eminence against the tropic background, looked like, a -holiday camp, is now grim reality. The touts have been struck and rolled into breastworks, supplemented by ��� trendies around the crest of the hill. The spot is lamentably exposed on the bare ground, while surrounding it on all sides is heavy brush.. The least movement in the camp is the signal for instant -target. practice on the part of the Spanish sharpshooters,* whose//rifles, carry much further than these of the marines, though their owners very rarely hit. anything they nim at. It is impossible to accurately estimate, the Spanish attftoking^forces, but they are numerous enough. About two-thirds of the force surrounds tho camp nightly with a deadly ring; and the spatting of the Mausers, -makes things quite lively for the Spaniards who are daring enough to ciawl up and take a pot shot at the marines from the bushes about 30^ yards from the camp. Every yard" of chapparal is an ambuscade, and picket duty is flopping coins with death. : After, the first, attack on Saturday night, Colonel . Huntington decided that another attempt would be niade on Sunday night, and he caused entrenchments to be thrown up on all sides of the camp, and in the trenches the main part of the battalion last night waited for thc attack. The colonel was certain it would come. It arrived within a short time after dark, and from that time until daybreak the firing was incessant and at times very heavy. ��� On the American side two men were killed and four injured. The dead are Sergeant Major Henry Moode, of the marines, shot thi-ough the right breast, and Private Tauuiau,was injured and fell off the cliff and was instantly killed^ ;_._ The injured are Private Wallace", who fell off the cliff and sustained a fracture' of the leg; Private Martin, shot- through the left leg,��and Private Rox- bury, shot through the ann. The above are all privates belonging to Company D. Private Burk was shot through the arm. The first attack of the Spanish was made at 8 o'clock and the last shot was fired by them at 5 o'clock in the morning. During the night whilo the Spaniards were attacking ..the camp of the marines on shore the Marblehead, believing that the marines had been driven out, threw several shells into the place. Thc attack, however, was repulsed by the small detachment of marines in camp. The shells of the Marblehead'struck among the marines. The fight was the . first .of thc war without Cuban co-operation. At times during the afternoon whenever the marines were firing on a small detachment of Spaniards that made their appearance a short distance from the camp the Cubans began firing without orders aud sent a" volley right among the Americans. There were several narrow escapes, but no one was injured. Lieutenant Neville was .sent otit on scout duty on tlie previous day and he attacked a small stone fort. A hot fight followed aud the Spaniards were driven off with loss. It was during this fight that Wallace and-Tau- man fell over the cliff. Fifteen dead Spaniards, including one lieutenant, were found in the fort during the attack. Several shots struck the ships in the harbor, one penetrating the pilot house of the Associated Press,despatch boat Dandy. No one was injured on board of her. The night attack was a picturesque and striking spectacle. The crack of Mauser tongues of fire from every brash encircling the camp, the twitter of the long steel bullts overhead, while Havana June 14.���Tlie United States cruiser Montgomery about 4 o'clock this afternoon approached nearer than is usually the case to the Santa Clara battery and fired three shots at the Punta Brava. The first shot was fired at eight thousand metres aud the others were fired at nine thousand 'metres. The Montgomery then resumed her place in tlie 'blockade lino. Her shots fell very near the battery. A Spanish battery'east of Morro Castle fired one shot at one other warship. The Union-Constitution says the in- surgont chief Don Cablero arrived at Santa Clara a few days ago to join the brigade being organized by the former insurgent chief Mosso, aud the correspondents ��� of newspapers assert that Cablero declared that the opinion of the-majority of the insurgent leaders who met in assembly at Boyamo were against American intervention. Ea- Taveta commenting on aT cable despatch received from Madrid, saying the resignation of the whole Spanish cabinet is probable and that it is likely other another cabinet will be formed under Marshal Martinez de Campos, the former captain general of Cuba, says: "If Martinez do Campos forms a cabinet including thc silvolaists, Spanish policy may become more complicated. Spain now needs a strong and energetic government." BERMAN INTERVENTION. SPANISH PRESS TflINK THEY OAN BUY GSEMAN SU1P0ET.

Capo Haytien, June 14.���The British steamer Ravensdale arrived here Saturday from Port Dopax after trying unsuccessfully to run* the' blockade at Guantanamo. Captain Luke, the commander, informed tho consular agent thero that ho brought a cargo of 600 tons of coal from New York to Nashua. After discharging he proceeded towards Guantanamo to take a cargo off the Cuban coast. Tho United States battleship Oregon fired* across the bows of the. Ravensdale..

"Germany intends io prevent a bombardment of Manila by making a naval demonstration. The newspapers urge sacrifices with 'tlie view of. seepring Germany's assistance aud political concessions iu return for her "taking the initiative in checking America." These are to be, firstly, naval stations aud coaling depots in Spanish Oceanica; secondly, Spanish concurrence in the development .of Germany's commercial and political relations with-Morocco.

The appropriation is carried in the sundry civil appropriation bill, but thatmeas- nre is still in conference, and the award has to be gpaid on the Kith inst. The resolution passed the house yester- pay and is therefore now a law. Berlin, June 14.���Advices have been received from Shanghai by the Frankfort Zeitung saying that news has been received there from Manila to tho effect that there is fighting every, night around tlie town. The insurgents are trying to capture Manila and establish au independent government before the Americans land. The German consul at Manila, it is further reported, has 300 German and Swiss soldiers on board a refugee steamer in the harbor. GERMANS IN MANILA. London, June 1-1.��� The Berlin correspondent of tho Times remarks tho fact that "with four warships already at Cavite and with the Darmstadt on the way with 400 men, Germany will have a force of 3000 men at Manila " BRYAN AT'OMAHA! He Deprecates Any Acquisition of Territory by the War. Omaha, Neb., Juno 14.���The No- . braska building at the exposition was dedicated today amid the plaudits of thousands of the state's citizens. The principal speaker of the day was Hon. William J. Bryan. Mr. Bryan's oration Avas his first public declaration of the war issue. He said: " "Our nation exhausted diplomacy in its effortis to secure a peaceful solution of the Cuban question and only took up arms when it was compelled to choose betweeu war and servile acquiescence in cruelties which would be a disgrace to barbarism. History will vindicate the position taken by the United States in the war with Spain. Iii saying this I am sure that the principles which were invoked in the inauguration of the war will ha observed in its prosecution and conclusion. If a contest undertaken for tho sake of humanity degenerates into a war of conquest we shall find it difficult to meet tho charge of having added hypocrisy to greed. Is our national character so weak that we can- not^-withstaiid --*= tlie- temptation^ of ap^ propriating the first piece of land that comes within otir reach to inflict upon the enemy all possible harm is legitimate warfare, but shall we contemplate a scheme for the colonization of the Orient merely because our fleet won a remarkable victory in the harbor of Manila. Our guns destroyed a Spanish fleet, but can they destroy that self-evident truth that governments derive their just power not from superior force, but from the consent of the governed? Shall wc abandon a just resistance to. European encroachment upon the western hemisphere in order to mingle in the controversies of Europe and Asia? If otlters turn to thoughts of aggrandizement and yield allegiance to those who clothe land- covetousness in the attractive garb of national destiny? The people of Nebraska will, if I mistake not their sentiments, plant themselves upon the disclaimer entered into by the congress and expect that good faitli shall characterize the making of peace, as it- did the beginning of the war.

Our readers will remember that he was drowned on the loth of May, while his hody was only found on Monday last. The list will he found in another column.'- In our report of the city council meeting, in our issue of yesterday, wo stated that_Hebden'& Hehden's bid for the pipe to he laid down on Kootenay street waa 18 cents a foot higher than. the Lawrence Hardware Co. 's bid. This was an error,, as their bid was only one cent per foot higher. We are extremely sorry that this mistake should have been inadvertently made, and are grateful for having it pointed out to us. We observe in yesterday's issue of the Kaslo Morning News an editorial note on a letter sent out by Mayor Houston to that paper a propos of Dominion day celebrations. It appears to us extremely impertinent for the Kaslo newspaper to try aud force their views upon us as to how Nelson people should spend Nelson money. It also seems to us quite irrelevant to attempt ���as the Kaslo News does���to drag partisan politics into such a matter, but probably it is only what is to he expected from the source whence it comes. It is possile, not to say probable, that General Merritt, commander of the American forces and military governor designate of Manila, may find himself, face to face with a serious dilemma on arriving at the Philippines. It is, judging from the latest despatches, quite within the bounds of possibility that Aguinaldo will have made himself master of Manila and the other Spanish garrison towns by the time that General Merritt gets there. The position will then be this: Aguinaldo, the chief of the insurgents Who are striving for independence, will'. be in possession while General Merritt, an alien and at the head of an alien army, will arrive with the intention of taking over the islands in the name of the United States. The question that immediately arises is this: Will the insurgents, now that they have Jattained their ends, recognize the United-States? It seems most probable and natural that they will not. No doubt from the point of view of. an independent and disinterested observer, the- insurgents are not fit to govern themselves, and will indisputably be happier under American rule. But can the insurgents be expected to recognize this? The less fit they are to govern themselves, the less they are likely to recognize the fact. The United States authorities say that they anticipate no trouble from Aguinaldo, who- is said to be a very level-headed man, but he must also be a man of exceptional character and of exceptional personality to -be able at once to forego his own ambitions and. induce his followers to" give up their cherished hopes. The insurgents will be flushed with victory, and, unless they have been much maligned, will be looking for Homething tangible as the result of their success. They have never known What it is to enjoy civic liberty, and probably expect to be gqyerned dicta- torily even under the new regime, but they will also want to be allowed to plunder a little for themselves and "hSvera'rnlcjrrof "theirr^own"race""over them, whether he be called president, governor, dictator or general. They have hitherto, probably, looked Upon the Americans as friends, their saviors from their oppressors, but it is very doubtful if they will continue to do so when they find that their wishes do not count one way or the other in the matter, and that they have merely changed masters. To the rank and file one foreigner is probably veiy much the same as another, and all masters equally abhorrent, so itis not at all improbable that General Merritt will find his part anything but abed of roses. The Spanish authorities, too, may confidently be relied on to do their uttermost to spread these ideas among the people, aud generally to foment discontent. Another, very .potent "factor in the situation are the priests and religious orders, Who exercise an unbounded sway ove^ the people In fact, it was probably due to their influence, alone that the last insurrection was put down., These latter have been allowed a free hand , by the Spanish authorities, and the result has been the enriching of the religious orders rather than he people. The Americans are notjlike- ly to be so lenient, and if the priests exert their influence against the newcomers, General Merritt will have troublous times indeed. ABOUT DIVINING RODS. We have been asked to give publicity to the list of subscribers to the funeral pf J. Hutcheson, who^ was buried yes- Some Remarkable Cases of Discovering Wafer by Their Uise. The pros and cons of the theory of the divining rod are again being discussed in the English newspapers. The superintendent of the fire brigade testifies to a case within his experience in which a water-finder was commissioned to operate on an estate of the existence of which he was previously ignorant. He got to work, soon found the presence of water, and. fixing upon the nearest and most convenient placed spring gave the probable depth at which water would be discovered in sufficient quantities at 75 feet. At 70 feet the water came in and had to be stopped, as the flow became too heavy. Some of the tools had to be left in the well, as there was not time to remove them all. The well supplied the cattle, horses and pigs of the farm on which it was bored through the dry summer of 1896, never failing in its flow. Twelve months after a second well was sunk barely a stone's, throw, from the first. This correspondent regards the power to find water as the result of a force, magnetic or otherwise, over which the finder has no control, and-which he is unable to explain. He also says that thc operation of finding water produces a marked degree of nervous fatigue to the operator. On the other hand, the discomfiture is announced of a professional water- finder who made a tour of the island of Jamaica, where in the dry season water is a precious boon. He traveled through the island, rod in hand, but met with little success. At oue village in the Santa Cruz montains he pegged out part of the course of a subterranean stream and then retired to lunch at a neighboring hotel. In his absence some wags removed his pegs and lined out a totally different course. On his return the diviner took up the new direction and continued it for 100 yards, not discovering his mistake until it was pointed out to him. At one point where he predicted water at a depth of 40 feet there was no sign of it when 150 feet had been bored, and after going down 200 feet the borer could not be extracted. The same result occurred in many other places, and finally the diviner left the islands abruptly. People are now asking who is responsible for the money paid him.���St. Louis Republic. WOULD NOT ACCEPT. Admiral Dewey has a son in New York city occupying a clerical position on a salary of $65 per month, says a Washington despatch in the Chicago Record. He is a young man of 23, and graduated from Princeton university in the class of 1896. Shortly after the battle "of ��� Manila Mr. Dewey, jr., was visited by the editor of a yellow journal and offered a position as a reporter, with a salary of $5000 a year. He inquired what would be expected of him, and was informed that he was needed to write articles on the war and kindred subjects. He might be sent to the front; he might be detailed to go on a fleet; he would have to accept any assignment that was given him, but of Course all of his expenses would be paid. The young man explained that he had had no��newspaper experience and no knowledge of the newspaper business; that he had never been inside a printing office nor had he ever written an article for publication in his life. Therefore he did not see how his services would be worth $5000 a year. It was explained to the innocent youth that experience,knowl- edge and literary talents were entirely superfluous. All he would, have to do was to sign the name of George Dewey, jr., to articles that other people would write for him and draw his salary. Mr. Dewey indignantly replied that he was not that kind of a ihan and declined the offer. EYE SHADES GLASSES. SPECTACLES. Eyesight Tested Free- W. F. TEETZEL & CO. Nelson, B. C.

RUSSIA IN CHINA. Russia Now Has Control of All the Pekin Railways. London, June 14.���The Pekin correspondent of the Times commenting on the increasing activity of Russia in China, says that "when their projected new railways are completed Russia will have control of all the railways along which it will be possible to move troops for tlie defense of Pekin. China was deluded into giving the contract for the Pekin-Hankau railway in the beginning to a small and an unaggressive power, but the Belgian minister was merely acting on behalf of Russia and France." England ought to insist upon the right of first refusal to allow railways in the Yangrtse-Kiang region.. LEITER LIQUIDATES. The; Wheat King's Creditors Will Not Lose After All. Chicago, June 14.���P.D. Armour today bought all Joseph Letter's cash wheafe in the northwest, amounting to four' or"' five million bushels. Semi- authoritative information^ is_ also ob- faihed~that"^^ Letter's wheat. It is generally admitted that the sale to Armour clears the atmosphere to a considerable extent, and if trustees are necessary cto liquidate the rest of Lei ter's cash wheat in this city, New York, afloat, and in European storehouses, it will not require much time to dispose of the remaining three million bushels or more. There will apparently be little difficulty in winding up the deal, inasmuch .n as it is authoritatively stated that oids have been received for all the cash wheat that Letter has. There is a fair prospect that Letter's creditors will lose nothing and that the wheat will hriug in sufficient, with recovering markets, to pay all claims. THE METAL MARKET.

Paris, Juno 14.���The chamber of, deputies today by a vote of 295 to 272 ' passed a vote of confidence in the gov- '��� eminent. Later, however, the Meline ministry was defeated by a vote of 29G to 246 amid intense excitement and uproar. The house was crowded as were tho public galleries, and all. present- eagerly discussed the situation. The premier, M. Meline, opened the proceedings by vehemently reptidiating the statement that he was engaged in an anti-democratic policy, but he declared that the accession of socialism to power wonld spell ruiu for France. Ex-Minister Bourgeois followed, taunting M. Meline in being unwilling, to cut himself loose from tho rightists, and several leftists continued their severe strictures of. the premier's antidemocratic policy. M. Ribot delivered a warm eulogy of the premier and proposed a vote of confidence in the government, but its tone elicited loud protests from 'tho rightists. Amid general excitement M._ Meline, however,accepted the terms of the motion, whereupon M. Oassagnac charged him with throwing over the rightists. The premier retorted that he had never asked for the*snpport of the rightists. The first part of. M. Bibot's motion, "the chamber approving the,.declaration of the government, " was then adopted by a vote of 292 to 272, as already cabled, and the second part, "is determined to put ih force the policy of democratic reforms based on the union of republicans,'' was adopted by 525 to 5 votes. Thus far matters were comparatively smooth. Then M. Henri Ricard moved to add the words "supported by a majority exclusively ' republican." M. Meline refused to accept this addition. M. Ricard insisted on a vote and the addition was .carried'by 296 to 246, whereupon there was a terrible uproar. The members of the extreme left rose en masse and shouted for the retirement of M. Meline. M. Bertaux yelled,"Get out, you are defeated.'' Others, pointing to the ministerial benches, indulged in a chorus of "Boohs.'' The] socialists vociferated ''Resign, resign.'' When a lull occurred another vote was taken on the entire motion. Meline accepted, swallowing the obnoxious addition and the motion was adopted by 284 to 272. The chamber of deputies then adjourned until Monday. In the lobbies of the chamber opinion was freely expressed that M. Meline would resign after the council tomorrow, though nothing is certain. Canada and the United States. Reciprocity with .the United States will also be discussed together with the fortification of St. John and the creation here of a naval coaling station. Thc French government having objetecd to the presence of a fourth British warship on the treaty coast the British gunboat Columbine has landed ber guns and ammunition here and thoy will be stored here until her (irui.se is.completed. GERMANY WATCHFUL. London, June 14.���According to a special despatch from Shanghai, the German steamer Petrarch is about to leave there for Manila with secret orders, it is believed, from the German government. Prince Henry of Prussia is now at Kiao Chou with- the German squadron and is kept constantly informed, t-he despatch says, as to the developments of the war. UNFIT FOR SEA. DEPEW MISREPORTED. Did Not Say Anlgo-American Alliance Would Never Be. London, uJne. 14.���The Daily Chronicle' publishes this morning an interview with Mr. Chauncey M. Depew with reference to his recent utterances to French newspaper men on the subject of an Anglo-Americau alliance and the relations between France and the United States. In the course of the interview Mr. Depew explains that the French papers had not correctly represented his views,.declaring that he did not say there never would be an. Anglo-American alliance, but what he did say was that a specific alliance "wasnot necessary or possible," because it ought to have constant and cordial co-operation. Mr. Depew said also: "My statements regarding France and America were similarly colored." MORE TROUBLE FROM SPAIN! A Cabinet Crisis Today and a Revolution Tomororw.

The English Press Gratified at Payment of Award. London, June 14.--The Times this morning in an editorial, which pretty fairly represents the feeling expressed by tiie other morning papers, says the "resolution to pay the Bebring sea award is another gratifying proof of the growth of spirit of friendship and justice towards England in a quarter where until recently such feelings were rarely exhibited. It is a proof of the good feeling which we cordially recognize and reciprocate, as well as a good omen for the establishment of closer and more cordial relations between the two, countries, toward which the best minds on both sides of the Atlantic have been steadily moving."
