The Frisco mine at Gem received four large boilers this week The "machinery for the air compressor will be along shortly. F. J. Edwards and M. T.

Snyder, both of Medimont, were married on Wednesday-by Justice A. E. ��� Angel. The bicycle craze continues unabated. The number of wheels in Wallace is close to 50, and more have been ordered. Murray and Littlefield are to be lighted by electricity. Power is being obtained from Sullivan, Prichard and Cascade creeks. The assay office at the Union mill for the second time, was burned down on Thursday night. The contents were saved. A defective flue was the cause of th e bl a ze. Th e office wi 11 be rebuilt at once. John Jones, of Walla- Walla, has been here for several days. He is one of the principal owners of the Rosa mine, in Dobson gulch, owned by the Blarney Stone Mining Co. Development work on the property will soon begin. There are 400 feet of tunnels on the mine, which carries silver-lead of encouraging quantity and quality. WARDNER. AI. Page expects to re-open his saloon in a fewr days. Dr. Machette is building new quarters next door to the postoffice. Several stands at the Stemwinder concentrator fell down this week, owing to inexperience on the part of the man operating. Fifteen men are working on the Stemwinder mine under lease- The lessees have not averaged $2 per day for six months. Foster, who murdered a man by the name of Cates, at Silver City, some time ago, with a jackknife, has been found guilty of manslaughter. So far the starting up of the Bunker Is issued at New Denver, B. C, on Thursday. Wet weather, snow slides, hard times, or the sheriff never hinders its publication. It comes out just the same. Hill has had but little effect on the general business of Wardner. Most of the miners who applied are now at work in the mine, consequently are seldom seen on the street. A tramway crew has been put on to get everything into shape. The company's office is flooded with applications for mill and general labor work but good miners aro still in demand. MYRTLE. Work on tlie Sweeney bar is suspended for the present, owing" to lack of water. Owen Jackson and four others are working his ground, which adjoins the Myrtle. - Mebsrs. Robinson, Hammetfc and Spaulding are operating on North Trail creek with fa ir results. George Wood and partners are digging on the lower end of the Myrtle ground,'adjoining Owen Jackson,and are making money. Joe Hook has let a lease to Dan Gillis to open a new drain on bedrock from the old Myrtle ditch. Old thn- ers predict that they will strike good ground. Jerry Savage is at work on the Myrtle claim' with a force of four men. They are drifting on bedrock with fair results. The lower end of the Myrtle ground is being worked under lease. There is still some profitable placer mining in progress around Delta and Myrtle and between the two places. On Monday four men took out $97, though that is above the general average. F. T. EUerhorst and Louis Nestler li)oes not dream.of.making1 a million out Of it, are working a claim on Placer gulch, but he expects to get a luxurious living. In order to do this it is necessary to have cash- able material, and the world at large is cordially invited to dig up enough money to pay for an annual interest. To accommodate the public we do 'i-> and they are reported to be doing extra well. They have, taken out nuggets recently weighing four and a half eight and 14 ounces. R. H. Mills, formerly head carpenter for the Bunker Hill Co., building the first large mill there, has been placer mining on his ground in Po- tosi gulch, but will shortly take charge of the erection of the Jenkins .mill. :. The Ward Brothers have jus* run 100 feet further on t he Wak e Up J im quartz claim,making a total distance of 275 feet. They have one of the most promising properties in the district. They have 14 inches of good ore in the drift. They have also adjoining claims of considerable value, which are being prospected and developed as occasion permits. The Fay Templeton in Pony gulch shut down on Saturday, discharging 26 men. They had been working six weeks, using a Huntington mill. Morris Prager, one of the principal owners, is confident of the future success of the property, and thinks the failure in this case was due to the employment of the mill in question. There is but little doubt of the ultimate profitable operation of this mine. At prices that do not discord, with.-, the despondent price of silver. ^^s&sxs^sssssbstz Second Year, THE LEDGE, Page '3 M NERAL RESOURCES. Total Output of the United States for tlie Past Year. The annual government report of the mineral resources ot the, United * -States 'for the , calendar year 1891 has been completed. It was compiled under the supervision of Dr. D. T. ,Daly, chief of .the mineral department of the geological survey, and is based on the reports of many experts and special agents. The total product shows a great decline from tiie output of 1893, due the report , says, mainly to the financial condi- • "tions,* but also "to special features which effected the net result. The most notable of these was the strike of bituminous coal miners, accounting largely for greatly decreased production and increase in price for part of the year. The strike naturally increased the' use of anthracite, which partly made up for the decrease in the demand for this substance, due to,the depression of manufactures. The low price of silver is responsible . for the decreased production. The consumption of petroleum exceeded the production, greatly de: creasing stocks at wells and increasing ■prices. The total product was valued at $521,595,131. /'The total value of non-metallic mineral product? was £3)5,786,313; metallic, $218,168,788, and' unspecified^ mineral products estimated at $11, ODD, 000. The product of silver for the year amounted to 49,501,122 troy ounces valued at $64,000,000; gold, 1,190,- 816 troy ounces, value $39,503,000; lead, 159,331 short tons. $9,942,254: quicksilver, 30,416 flasks, $934,000; bituminous coal, 118,820,405 short tons, $107,653,501; Pennsylvania anthracite, 46,358,141 long tons, $78,- 488,033; petroleum,49,521,575 barrels, $25,800,532. The pigiron production decreased from 7,124,502 long tons to 6,657,388, and the valuation decreased nearly $20,000,000. Iron ores included 929,050 long tons in production and £4 687,938 in value. The gold product for the year is the largest since 1878, increasing from 1,439,081 troy ounces for 1893, with a coinage value of 135,950,000. The silver production declined over 10,000, C03 ounces. The petroleum .■export was the largest, yet recorded, over one hundred -million'.gallons more than in 1893. The total value of the product of stone of all kinds increased, from $33,885,573 to t.37,- 092,102. W. J. TRETHEWEY, E.M., Examination & Reports. Assays of Ores. Analysis of Ores.

Like Kootenay, the element is principall from the land of the star, spangled banner. < The Colonist says that the Provincial Government has closed a contract with the Hall Mines Co. to erect a s nelter at Nelson to be ready in six months. This will spoil that town's reputation for being the quietest place in the district. Open gambling has been suppressed in Montana, and, in future, bucking the tiger will have to be done in secret. Faro has never been allowed in Nelson, but. pools on crooked horse races are'occasionally sold upon its most prominent thorough fares.

You can get fifty-two different specimens for $2, and for a few dollars more you can have an interest in the vein of high grade advertising now being developed. uThe;Toltec Head" is the title of the story in the Argonaut of July 1st. It is from the pen of Edmund Stuart Roche, and details another of the famous Calkin's adventure with the supernatural���an adventure which bids fair at the beginning to be as startling as any experienced by Rider Haggard's heroes, and yet is narrated with the dry humor Of the old-time Western mining man. British Columbia desires to be represented in the Cabinet at Ottawa Prince Edward Island is represented and surely a province of greater im* portance than that should have as much to say. This province bids fair in a, few years to get very close to the front, and when it does the seat of Parliament will have to be changed from Ottawa to a more central locality, probably Winnipeg, Orly two newspapers are issued in Canada on Sunday, both in British Columbia. These publications do not come out. on Monday, and consequently little work is done on Sunday. Recently an effort was made in the Federal parliament to prohibit the issuing and selling of papers on Sunday. The 3. C. members strongly opposed it. If a law of that kind is put in force it should be made to apply to Monday morning papers, which will work a hardship upon the puritanical citizens of Toronto and other eastern cities. Down go tlie Kates. The Great Northern Railway has again made a cut in the rates for hauling the mineral output of West Kootenay, From Trail creek the rate to the smelters at Ta coma, Great Falls and Everett is reduced fifty cents per ton below the former rates. This makes the new rate to Great Falls $8.00 per ton; to Tacoma and Everett $7.50. Band Visits Three Forks ca Me & lis, BOSSLAND, B. C. AUR Stage Line meets all Boats arriving at Trail Landing. S.B. "ALBEETA." An enterprising advertising scheme was successfully carried out by the band on Monday. They journeyed by train to Three Forks, to announce tlie excursion to the foot of the lake on the 18th. The Forks was taken by surprise and they are still wondering about it. The boys had only three quarters of an hour to stay, but they delighted the townsfolk with their selections. The hotel men vied with each other in showing courtesy to the boys. Coming back the band stayed off at the concentrator and spent the afternoon. Capt. Moore and his comrades, not forgetting the ladies, treated the band white, paying them every possible attention. An impromptu concert was given in the general offices of the company and a most enjoyable time spent. The concentrator people are the most hospitable in the district. It was sundown when the boys got home. ���Great Northern is Anxious. An American contemporary remarks : That the Great Northern is keeping an anxious eye on the output of the Slocan mines, and proposes to begin competing with the Canadian Pacific as quickly as possible, is made evident nearly every day in the week. The building of the Kaslo & Siocan railway is being, rushed at a great rate. ' At the same time the connections between the railway and steamer at Bonner's Ferry are being greatly improved. The new spur from the main track to the river and the new wharf are nearly completed and will be ready for use by July 1: A good warehouse will aiso be constructed, large enough to store ore or anything else that comes; and with the completion of the railway to Three Forks, President Hill's agents will begin a big fight with the Canadian Pacific for the possession of that desirable territory.

Editor of Ledge: sir,���Perhaps the following notes upon the recent game of baseball at Nakusp, between the teams above mentioned, may be of interest '������o some of your readers." If not, then I am certain the poem appended will be : New Denver hearing that Nakusp had little practice together, and expecting to meet a very ordinary average nine, anticipated a victory on the 1st. They soon discovered that to win thev would have to exert their utmost, as Nakusp had secured tlie services of an ex-professional curve-pitcher, besides having three or four others hard to beat in this country -at-their position's. ���Wo had had no practice batting against curves and everyone was puzzled by thc ability and control of the pitcher. Our fielding and knowledge of the game was evidently superior to theirs. At the commencement of the game T. Henderson was in the box with Murphy behind"the bat. Murphy in throwing to , first base, mistook- the coach standing* near for the ;baseman, and ,a wild throw cost us dear. At this period, George Davis took the pitcher's bos, and in the remain ins* five innings each side made eight runs. The ground was a very tough one, the rhj-ht and left field being full of stumps. The first base ��� was several feet higher than the home plate, and tiie third base was right up against Abricl's store. N. D; MOOKE, Pres: R. McFERRAN, Sec'v m4?
