Our city schools low cost $L,700 a year, and to the present has all been paid by tlie government. Commencing with July prox. a new school law comes into force.'under which between the 1st July coming and the 1st July, 1902, tho government will give Sandon but $550. If the schools are to be retained as at present, the people of Sandon will have to put up $1 150,which, of course, they are unable to do. This $550 the government is paying is based on the average of the school from tlie 1st July to the olst of Dec. last year. .During that period, because of tho unjustifiable cranks of many parents, antagonistic to Mr. Barron, the attendance was very low, and this low attendance gives a small government grant and heavy city taxes. This would lie all the less matter if the taxes fell, not noon the property holders, but upon the parents whon refused to send their children to school. For the future our government grants will be based on our school attendance, so that if tlio people want to avoid taxes, thoy wiil scud their children regularly to school. Each pupil attending regularly will save the city $20 a year in taxation. THE LOCAL GRAFT. W. V. Brock left on Wednesday 'lioenix. II. Byers, of Nelson, was in. for 1. the city this week.

The city can ill-afford to lose such men as Mr. Wilson, and his brother, Mr. B. Wilson, who will likely also remove later on. It is a degree of satisfaction, however, to know he will he succeeded by Mr. Howard West, cf New Denver, who is so well and favorably known in his profession. A pounding match worthy of the Cannibal Islands, took place in front of a Sandon saloon on Tuesday evening, that is likely to create a considerable\" stir. As the story goes, it was done at the instigation of a womon, now held at Nelson for return. A man named Gray, who is said to have lost $300 besides, is the victim. Two men, named respectively Cusic and Hansom, are now under arrest and out on bail for the offence. Rows there always will be, but the brutal pounding by a number jumping on to one man���������some eight in this case ���������ought to bo stamped out effectively. This is a British colony and British justieo should be forced by the authorities. St. Keyerne Co. Reorganised. The St. Keverne Mining company has been reorganized and capital provided for extensive development of this young Sandon property. At a recent general meeting of the company its property was sold to the St. Keverne Mines, Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, with headquarters at Mont-' real and organized by S. Norman. The capital of the new company is in 100,000 $1 shares and the stock is assessable to 5 cents per share. An assessment of 1 cent is to be levied shortly, giving working capital for immediate resumption of work. Within the past few years the stock of the old company has been gradually absorbed by a Montreal syndicate. The ��������� control is held in Montreal arid.Ontario, the chief .western stockholder being John A. Finch, president of the old company. ,' Stockholders in the old company will receive one share in the new for-10 in the old or they will receive 3 cents per share in cash by turning their stock in. This offer expires June 1st, but the officers will ask for an immediate response. The old company, which will be disincorporated, was organized by Sidney Norman in 1897, with its capital in 1,000,000 $1 shares. Of this 300,000 was placed in the treasury, sold and the proceeds spent on the property. Hotel Arrivals For the Week. illNES AND -TUNING. The Sunset at Jackson Basin shipped 21 tons from Whitewater this week. W W. Warner says that the Wonderful will commence shipping as soon as the roads are in good condition. The Ivanhoe mine closed down on Thursday for an indefinite period. Some 85 meu were laid off in consequence. The Sunset mine, Jackson Basin, jj shipped 16 cars of ore during the win- ' ter, amounting to 325 tons. The returns brought from $1,500 to $2,000 a car. Two hundred feet of tunnelling has been done on the Hazel at Whitewater, so far this year, and 150 feet ia still to , be driven before the con tract is finished.

Bingley is c'thc depot of tihe East Ranksbire Regiment, and on account of the wax the Militia bat- taliioms were stationed there. I rather pride myself upon my aristocratic appearance, and I always dress rather smartly; therefore I was; not much surprised when the sentry on guard mistook me foir an officer and saluted me as I enteired the barracks\". Of course I looked unconcerned, and re- , turned Lhe salute in an official, offhand manncir. There was in the s'ame office as my- ' self another civilian clerk, a very decent sort of a fellow; but he would insist upon wearing a turn-down collar. I overlooked this, however, and we rubbed along very well together. I, of course, pointed out to him the many advantages of wearing a 'high collar, telling him how I had been miiistakcn ,for an officer, and ihad been saluted as ono on several occasions. He said that if such were the case ���������he would try one, and the next morning 'he showed up wearing a collar about 2 l-2in. high. That morning ne was very quiet, and I thought that something mus!t have upset him. I learnt at dinner-time wihat this was'. It appears that when he had coino into barracks in the morning, a s!ol- diiierr who. had been ait the depot for seveinal years was on guard, and just ' as he was coming in the gates this sol- dietr 'had put his; hand up to his: head to knock off a fly. Collins thought that he was saluting him, and saluted in return. <: The soldier burst out laughing and told him that he, the soldier, was'not an officer. Collins seemed to think it was' my fault,' and was quite naslty about it. When the dancing season commenced GolLins and myself were invited to a ball to be held in a neighboring town, and cf course we wenL I was in evening dress, and, though I say it myself, I looked mare aristocratic than ever. There was one girl there with whom I danced, a very superior girl, and I took to her at once. I had been told that Bhe was; a Miss Myers, and had an income of about ������2,000 a year. Now, I thought, if she knows. I am a civilian clcirk, earning about ������75 a year, she will naturally treat me with a certain amount of indifference, so Ig-cJt Coiling;, who said he knew her quite well, to. introduce, me to her as Lieutenant Bates', o'f the East Ranks/hire Regiment. He consented to do s'o, out remarked im that nasty sarcastic manner of his that \"I must not bo disappointed if she di'd not believo it,\" . So i)t came about that 1 was introduced to her as Lieutenant Bates' and danced with her several timca. and upon leaving she expressed a wish that wo should meet again. It was about throe weeks; after this ball that I again met Miss: Myers. It was at a reception, and 1 had along talk with her| and when I went home t'hat night.I was desperately in love with her, but I thought that my suit ���������was 'hopeless. . For was she not an heireaa' and I a miserable clerk? I was, I'll confess, attracted by her fortune, and had she been.poor I might have acted differently, but I had always said that I intended to marry a girl with money. She actually arranged to meet me on the Wednesday following the reception, so I believed that at least a'he liked me. Well, we met and I got along swimmingly. I now regretted very much deceiving her as regarded my position and when she had spoken about the the Army I was in a terrible fix for fear she should ask me s/>me question that I should not ba able to ansjwer. She continued to know me, however,, as Lieutenant Bates;, and I dared not tell her d'ifferently. .AVell, things went on like this; for more than a month, during which time I mett Iher on several occasions. One evening when I left Her she told mo that she was! coming to Bingley on tho followiing Wednesday, and if I wiished she would meet me there; \"that is,\" she added, \"if you can spare the time, lknow you officers have so much to do now that this) awful war is on.\" I said that a hundred wars' would not prevent me from seeing her. \"I can ask the sJtaff-sergeant to let that cs, I can excuse myself from mess,\" I 'hastily added. \"Oh!\" she said, \"I have never seen you in uniform yet, and I should so like to see you. Will you wear your regimentals next Wednesday?\" \"Ah !���������yes,\" I answered. \"Of course if you wish it.\" 1 went back to Bingley, not knowing what the. dickens to do ! I was' not allowed to wear umiform, and if she knew anything about military matters she would see that none of the soldiers that we were bound to meet saluted me. I was determined not lo give her up without a struggle, so I decided that at all risks I must see her on the following Wednesday. The first thing to do was to borrow some uniform. Fortunately, I knew a sergeant in the Army Pay Corps, and, that uniform not being a common one, I asked him if he would lend it to mc, tailing, him that 'I required the things for some private theatricals. He lent them to me, and on the Wednesday I took them round to my lodgings and asked my landlady to remove the three stripes from the arm of the tunic. 1 had arranged to meet Miss Myers at three o'clock, so after having my dinner I went back to the office for an hour. Suddenly a brilliant idea occurred to me. At the depot there were dozens of recruits who would do anything for a few coppers; why not get two or three; of them to wait at a corner and salute me as we passed? I went across to the canteen and picked out three raw recruits, and asked them i������ thoy would like to earn a bob. They:were only too glad of the opportunity, and Igave them instructions to wait outside a certain public-house, and when myself and a young lady appeared to.salute me as though I were an officer. They winked, and, putting the shilling in their pockets, gave the characteristic answer, \"Not 'arf.\" Haying everything arranged I went back to my lodgings and got into the uniform���������it fitted me like a glove��������� and I was quite proud of my military appearance. Punctually at three o'clock I was at the station waiting for Miss Myers. About three minutes after that time her train arrived and she stepped out, and her face quite lighted up when she saw me. \"Oh! you look over so nice in uniform���������perfectly sweet,\" she exclaimed; \"but where is your sword! I always thought that officers wore swords!\" \"Oh!���������er���������no--yes; it has gone to be sharpened, on account of the war, you know,\" I answered, in confusion. Things went fairly smoothly after this until .we approached the corner whore I had told the recruits to wait. They were there, sure enough, but thoy were waiting with such looks of expectancy that I felt sure Miss Myers would see that it wasa\"plant.\" \"Whatever is tho matter with those soldiers at the corner?\" asked Miss Myers. \"Oh!\" i replied, \"they are only recruits, and are tremendously frightened when they see an officer. Some of Lhera have been put in the guardroom for not saluting, and that makes them very careful, you know.\" We reached the corner where the recruits were standing, and they stood to attention and saluted. I returned the salute in a casual, offhand manner, as though it was the most common thing in the world for me to be saluted. \"How nice it must be to have so much respect shown you,\" said Miss Myers. \"One gets sick of 30 much of it,\" I replied. \"It is a beastly nuisance to keep constantly touching one's helmet to every soldier one meets.\" \"Do you know, Mr. Bates, I have never noticed the soldiers salute you when we have been out before?\" \"No; that's because I was in ordinary clothing, and not having been Surpasses all others, because of its high quality���������a quality that never varies. Try it ono������^ and we know that you will then recommend it to all your frioad*. Load Packages 26,30,40, 50 and 60 Oonte long at the depot, thoy do not yet know me without my uniform.\" . I was simply perspiring with apprehension. Whatever question would she ask next? What I did see when we turned the corner made me ten times worse, for therei stood tho sergeant who' had lent me the uniform, the man whom I had told that I required jthem for some theatricals. Before I had time to make some ' excuse for turning back he caught sight of me. He stood still for a moment in astonishment, and then pointed over his shoulder to tho public-house, as much as to say, \"Come and have one.\" I had tho presence of mind to touch my forehead as though he had saluted, and we passed on. For an hour we were shopping, and then I suggested that we should walk to the next station on the line, a distance of about four miles, and that she should take tho train from thore. She was delighted with the proposal, and .we accordingly started. Some \"arrow of outrageous fortune'- semeed to have made me its mark that day, for scarcely had we started before I saw coming down the road one of those wretcbedi recruits, in a pitiful state of intoxication. The shilling that I had given him had been responsible for this. I prayed that he might not recognize me, but he did. and bawled across the road:��������� \"I say, guv'nor���������you with the sergeant's clothes on���������is it all right for another bob, for another touch of the-���������\" '���������.;������������������. I hurried on, completely crushed by this latest exposure. I know that Miss Myers asked me something about what he meant, and I made some sort of reply about \"taking mei for someone else,\" and.'I should \"put him in the .guard-room in the morning.\" I could not go on like this; I was sure to be found out, so I determined to do a very bold thing, to tell her everything, who I really was, and then to, proposo to her. We walked along for some time in silence. I was terribly embarrassed, and even Miss Myers seemed to be nervous and apprehensive. I wondered if she would be; very angry at my deceit. . I saw the vision of ������2,- 000 a year disappearing before my eyes, then I thought that, if she really cared for me, she! would not mind ray position. Suddenly I plucked up courage and commenced, \"Miss Myers, I have something very serious to say to you, and really���������I���������don't know where to begin.\" \"Oh! Mr. Bates, I���������I am sorry 1��������� 1 really did not intend to���������to���������I can see that you know���������-\" She here actually began to cry as though it was her that was to blame. I did my best to console her, and when she was somewhat calm I began again:��������� \"I have deceived you, Miss Myers, by telling you that I am an officer. I am merely ,a civilian clerk earning about ������75 a year. Let my lovo for you be the excuse for my conduct. Yes, I,love you���������and���������I am sure we could bo very happy together; and���������er���������I want you to be my wife. Do not think that I am tempted by any mercenary consideration, for were you as poor as-���������\" Her head was resting on my shoulder and she did not answer. I was encouraged, and was about to renew my protestations of love when I felt her shaking.. At first I thought she was sobbing, but the next moment I found.that it was laughter that was causing it. \"Oh! Mr. Bates. It is so funny, very funny indeed. I \" \"You may find it funny,\" I answered, \"but if you only knew how���������\" \"It is not that,\" she answered, \"but all the time I have been doing the same thing as you. I have been deceiving you, and I am so sorry, indeed I am, but let my love be the excuse for my������������������\" \"Whatever do you mean?\" I asked. \"Well,\" she answored, \"I am not Miss Myers at all. I am only her���������er ���������cook. Your friend could not have known Miss Myers much, but lam supposed to be very much like her, and I thought that I should never see you again, so when you mistook me for Miss Myers I did' not trouble to enlighten you. I suppose we can cry quits, can't we?\" For several minutes I did not speak; I was dumfounded. But what could I do but marry her? TAKES AN ICY DIP. Itosten Ooctor aud Friend* Talcc l'lua.

VVhilstthe majority of the members of the British Columbia legislature proiess to be very solicitous for the interest of the working man, for the votes it may bring, we find but very few of them making'any move to help the industrious prospector, on whose energies more than anything else the welfare of the country mainly depends. When he comes in,he is saddled unceremoniously with a poll tax, a miners' license, recording fees, charges for registering .improvements, prevented from using timber on his claim, taxed for crowh-granting, forced to build his own trails, compelled to pay a revenue on his output���������doubled a late session���������and no government, assistance in anyway, shape or form. The government now proposes to borrow '$5,000,000 to lend to ' railway sharks and boomsters, oilers to give large slices of public lands besides, but nothing for the claim owner or prospect holder. Would it not be in the interest of this country, if some of our members would suggest one half of this five millions should be lent at a reasonable rate of interest to claiin owners and prospect owners, to develop their properties, under the instruction of competent government engineers, taking a first lien on the properties as security f0r repayment. Competes lyixiiningrnen would have no trouble in1 going through the Slocan at this moment and finding hundreds of properties, just as promising as the best of our mines ever were in the same state of development,dying a waste simply because the owners cannot raise a little money to work them. We lepeat will nat some of our representatives, come to their rescue? The government lends money to railways for drainage, to municipalities for different purposes, but there is no one to suggest loans for prospectors, on whose success the welfare of the country mainly depends. There are plenty of properties, we repeat, in the Slocan on which the expenditure of a few hundred dollars would produce a 'showing that would leave them rich, when they are now forced to sell to capitalists for a mere pittance, doing themselves out of means to which their energies and past piiva- tions fully entitle them.

If a Liberal-Labor party is wise,' it is also wisdom to organize a Conservative-Labor party, and when the Labor element is thus rent in twain, and each set at the throat of the other, it will be an unquestioned way to. advance the cause of labor.

At a recent public school examination for girls in an English town this composition was handed in by a girl of 12: \"The boy is not an animal, yet they can be heard to a'considerable distance. When a boy hollers he opens his big mouth like frogs, but girls hold their toung til they are spoken to, and they answer respectable, and tell just how it was. A boy thinks himself, clever because he can wade where the water is deep. When the boy grows' up he is called a husband, and he stops wading and stays out at nights, but the grown-up girl is a widow and keeps house.\" BREAKING IT GENTLY.
