The Tribune was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from November 1892 to November 1905. The Tribune was published and edited 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. Houston had established the Miner in Nelson in 1890, and, after leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, he established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. In August 1901, the title of the paper was changed to the Nelson Tribune.

ESTABLISHED MOND AY > MORNING, OCTOBER J 4, 1901 - DAILX EDITION' WINTER PROGRAM OUTLINED BST DIRECTORS. ST. MARY'S DISTRICT FORGING AHEAB--RAII.ROADS IN CONTEMPLATION. J. C. Drewry arrived in Nelson yesterday from Kaslo, where lie was attending a meeting Qt* the directors of the Truo Blue mine. The object of the meeting was the outlining of tho company's programme for tho approaching winter. Just what will bo dono, however, very largely .depends upon the cost of operating. To' move their ore to Kaslo the owners of tho True Blue have to rawhide and team their ore a distance of five miles and the cost of transport may be so heavy that it will not be advisable to ship very extensively. What the' directors did decide upon, however, was the building'of a new rawhide trail and the improvement of the accommodations at the mine so that work can bp carried on comfortably all winter. .Tenders will then be invited for the" hauling of the oro to Kaslo, and if they are considered favorable extensive shipments will then be made. It is/thought that there will be a scarcity of packing outfits this winter to move tho ore that will be offering. If this proves to be the. case the True Blue .will only ship sufficient to .cover the cost of the winter's development :ers of a mile, but expen- rould be it would be more than offset in the saving resulting from tlio operation of a line offering tonnage tlnoughout almost its entire length as against operating a line over which there are long barren stretches. If this road is built it will probably do away with the proposed connecting link of the Crow's Nest line from Kootenay Landing to Procter, a line which all agree will be very expensive of construction and from which practically no local tonnage is to be expected. Concessions tor Liberia. ' LONDON, October 13.���The'Associated Pi ess learns that the Liberian officials who arrived in England early in August with* the' object of 'obtaining 'from "Great Britain the right to navigate, the Manila river have been successful, 'despite the fact that Great Britain was unwilling at first to grant the request of the Republic. In addition to this the envoys discussed with the colonial officers further and more important propositions. These were put in the form of a memorandum, which is now"being submitted to tlie Liberian government. -If, as it is thought most probable, >- this memoran- -. dum is ratified, the Liberiari** interna- , tional status, it is believed, will be con- ' siderably strengthened. ' IMPERIAL AND EVA GROUP contractor, was fined ?550 and costs for, violating the Alien Labor law in importing alleged miners and laborers from the United States under contract, will probably be heard on its merits. Yesterday when the matter came before Mr. justice Walkem, A. H. MaeNeill, KC��� for the prosecution, objected that Daly & Hamilton on Geiser's behalf had filed their marked check for the amount due, in place of having their client enter into a recognizance as required by the code and the rules,of court, after some argument the judge reserved his decision and he will hand his'judgment, a written one, out tomorrow. It will hold in favor of Mr. MacNeill's contention, and this will end the "matter, there being no appeal from the judge's finding Mr. justice Walkem has dismissed the application to free Beamish, on the ground that he has no jurisdiction to hear the case. Gillan will renew the'apphcation before Mr. justice Irving at the Nelson assizes during the week. WRECKED SIXTY MILES HNORTH OF VANCOUVER/ ALL THE PASSENGERS AND THEIR* - -PERSONAL EFFECTS WERE ' , SAVED. tire Spokane Falls & Nortnern system. i�� to be done here. They estimate the number of men to be employed in. the new industry" at not less than 100 and at times probably 130. It is exppcted that at .least' 50 -families will make Northpoit their home as a result. The company has all the arrangements >��� ���made' for tlio building of a tramway next * spring; which is 'bound -to effect a considerable saving in the'" handling of its output, so that it becomes an object to the company;'to delay* shipping-unless . ��� favorable,.terms are* offered. - , ���. , - Mr. Drewry has great hopes of the advancement of the St. Mary's district. All that this district requires in the opinion of all who arc familiar with it is a, rail- . .way, and Mr.,Drewry says he has excellent reasons for bejieving that the' rail- . way will soon be built, and that when"it , -is.built it will become.the main line for " the .Crow's Nest ? branch. - It was t a* * knowledge-of the possibilities of ttiis -'section in the-way "of-tonnage which "' prompted the promoters of the Crawford Bay /-"Port Steele road to apply to the. provincial legislature some time ago for a charter. Tho incorporators of this ������ "-road had a hope at the time of interest-' ing James J. Hill in their scheme, 'but' Hill afterwards refuted to become inter- *��� ested and the scheme fell'through. Since then the C. P. R. people'have been givr ing the scheme a gfreat deal of attention and "a start has now beeu made on the St. Mary's end of the road, which will ultimately be extended through to Kootenay lake with Crawford bay as its rail terminus. , There aro several factors at work now which will stimulate the managers of Canada's great railway in their efforts to prevent the tonnage of this . district from slipping away from them. * ' One of these is the smeiter which the owners of the Sullivan group of mines ' are preparing to erect at Marysville. Ac- ������cording-to-Mrr^Drewry-the-full-scheme- of the promoters of this smelter' have not been laid before the public. In talking their program over with James Cronin of "the St. Eugene, senator Tur-_ ner, who is the leading spirit in the smelter.project, is .reported vas saying "that tho intention of himself and his associates was to refine as well as smelt. But in any event, if nothing more than, smelting is attempted as a starter, there" will bo a considerable tonnage available for the railroads from Marysville. As a smelting point Marysville will have advantages over evory other point in the province in that it is convenient to the ores as well as the fuel. The oro from the Sullivan group, for the treatment of which the smelter was projected, are said to carry an excess of iron. It will bo desirable therefore to secure other ores from tho properties along the St. Mary's river and its tributaries. The necessary oro is there and in a quiet way the owners of the properties are steadily showing up the tonnage. With the ore in sight, and demand for .it, the chance of .securing tho railway necessary for its transport becomes almost a certainty in itself; but this is only ono fact<jr. The C. P. R. has an ertensive timber limit at the upper end of St Mary's lako, and timber is fast becoming a very valuable article in*East Kotenay. The lake itself forms a natural storage reservoir for sawlogs and whero the river drains the lake at the lower end there is excellent water power for milling purposes. All that remains therefore to market tho timber in the limit is a line of railway from Marysville to the, end of-the lake, and that this is not likely to be wanting very long may be gathered from the fact that Hugh Lumsden, the chief field man on the C. P. R. engineering staff is now at work on its survey. This piece of road, Mr. Drewry says, will be but a section in a through line to Kootenay lake. Oro tonnage offering lor the Marysville smelter will warrant the construction of the second section, and an increased-tonnage from the upper portion of the St. Mary's district as well as that of the* Crawford Bay district, and the advantage of a saving of three or four hours in the time across the continent will call for its completion through to Crawford Bay. There are three passes over the summit from the St. Mary's slope to that of Crawford Bay. The scheme would probably' in- yolve the cutting of a tunnel a distance Why the Bond Was Dropped. - A H. Gracey of the Imperial Development Syndicate has- leturned from a trip of .inspection to the. Imperial and Eva groups on Lexington mountain in the Lardeau district,* which, were undpr bond to the London <__ British Columbia Gold Fields. Mr. Gracey was accompan- paniedon his trip" by George Gillies of Toronto* the president of the Syndicate. Mr. Gracey's trip, was for'the two- fbd" pui pose of enabling Mr. Gillies to sec the property and also the better tb, enable him to lay out a program* for' the resumption of work upon the groups by the Imperial Development Syndicate, ln speaking of the dropping of the bond' by the 'London .& t>ntish Columbia Goldfields Mr. Gracey said that .while the failure of the propeity, to-come'up to the 'requirements of the holders of the bond with the amount, of work .performed upon itvwa. naturally a great disappointment to him, he had not lost, the least, of his < confidence in it, nor had the work done upon it injured thev property-in^any way. So far from this* being the "case he was of the opinion /That the. shareholders of the development-"syndicate were the gainers to the amount of the cash payment of $5000, is well as the-whole of thc-$_0,000 spent in the property's development. He .did. not like to. criticize in any way the action of'the holders of the bond, but it 'was his opinion that with" further -worki his syndicate "would have in the Imperial and' Eva a property'sufficiently inviting either to sell or work. As_ an evidence-of his own faith in the property, in which he and Mr. Gillies are the largest 'shareholders, he has recommended that work be continued on it ,all winter. The syndicate has had ro difficulty in 'meeting the heavy payments that have recently''fell due and has ample funds for carrying on 'work for the winter with a force of a dozen men. So' far as the shareholders ih 'the syndicate are "concerned, the appearance of the property.need give them no concern as. they can readily get oiit ail that they have put into it or are likelv to-put-in.���The-property-may-not-make the great mine which it was one .ime hoped, 'but this is not necessary to return-every dollar that has gone into hy and with a goo'd return. If with, further work this should be deemed advisable, all that would be required would be'the installation of a small stamp mill and the quarrying out of the ore that has been exposed on the surface already The -proceeds ** of this ore'would more than repay thoso who are interested their money, but Mr. Gracey does not anticipate anj- movement of this kind. His own opinion is that when the No. 3 tunnel is put in another 400 foet it" will strike at a depth of 500 feet the point of contact of the two ledges upon which "work has been going on. "This tunnel was run in on the largest ledge and for about 100 feet it had a ^very good chute of ore. On' the'surface'this ledge had an inriiqated width of 50 feft at. one point whero it was crosscut. Whether it holds this width at depth has not been fully determined, but at the one point in the tunnel at which the ledge was crosscut the size of the ledge appeared to have narrowed down to 15 feet. Careful samples taken from the roof of this tunnel for a distance of 60 feet along this chute have given assay returns of $30 to the ton, so that this in itself is not a bad showing. In driving along the tunnel passed out of, this chute and entered a portion of the ledge which, while it carried values, might be regarded as comparatively barren and when work in it was stopped the appearance of it had not undergone any perceptible change. Mr. Gracey does not contemplate going ahead with this amnel for some time yet. His first work will be the driving of the No. 6 tunnel into the contact of the two ledges and in the sinking of a winze upon the oro chute cut by this tunnel. He does not profess to see any further into the ground than anyone else, but he is of the opinion that in the course of a few weeks he will have a much greater knowledge of tho Imperial and Eva ledges, "and a knowledge that will justify more extensive work.

GREENWOOD ��� Mining Affairs in the Two Camps. ,��� GREENWOOD, October 13.���| Special to The'Tribune.]���Men'left Greenwood yesterday for the Carmi mine,' up the West Fork of Kettle river, where^work is to.be resumed. "It is understood that as soon as the sleighing shall* be ��� good enough for heavy haulihg,-ore will again be shipped to Midway, and taken thence by rail to the* smelter at Greenwood. Last winter the,. Carmi sept down -885 tons of ore of good grade, "and preparations are being made to considerably increase the output this winter. The Granby company is prospecting a big ridge on Knob Hill and Grey Eagle properties with a view to, letting the work of removing the surface debris On contract, preliminary to considerably extending its surface ore-quarrying operations. The area to be stripped is about 500 feet long by about* 300-feet wide. The same company has commenced /work'on the Grey-Eagleron the south slope of the hill, about 1000 feet south of the southern boundary line of the Knob'Hill. An enormous showing of ore outcropping here is being stripped, the intention being to open another big 'quarry and work northward towards the Knob Hill quarries on the north slope of the hill and which are being extended southwards. These together will give a length of about 2500 feet along .which ���quarrying can be done in ore. At'the British Columbia Copper Company's Mother Lode mine, near Greenwood, a single blast recently��bi ought down more than 2000 tonsyof ore. 'This was in *No. 1 quarry, and--'was?the result of firing four deep holes; ��� Two more stopes were lately opened at the 200-foot level of the mine, and. at .-.the-.300-foot level Lhe new plan of working���pillar and stope���has been fairly .started,?so that several stopes will 'shortly'be open here too. The north drift at the 1300- foot level is being extended;; exploring the ore bodies at that depth, and a* distance of 460 feet from the :m'ai.n shaft has now been reached. ���"��� ��� ���'*'���'?'??' ���*.���*.��'- VANCOUVER, October 13 ��� [Specif? to The Tribune.]���The steamer ^Hating, one of the finest vessels of 'the Canadian Pacific service to Skagway since the-loss of the Islander, lies 3. wreck on the end of.

An 'Individ .i^"mine here and there may at one time haye a large sup- ���plyr of .ore at handj^and at another,} have ,its, reserves' deplete^'"and its" shipments interrupted. But. ai smelter depends" for. 'its existence upon a"steadKland,.contlh-" .uous'supply'of ore.?7Unless?that is guar^* anteed:by the condition j of the. mines' "and district it is* intended?to^serve, the .capital is, not. usually,.forthcoming? to? insure its���construction. V_Witfiouti cbnf> sidering the. increase?in. capacity; both_ at the Granby smelter and at the^Green-,, wood'smelter.-ywe-fihd that," at"ft__ejpres- ent time, no fewer, than tflve?new smelters, are mooted in ^-British- Columbia. We would, be. far froni committing ourselves to'the^opinion that-all these smel- 'ters will be' immediately;-placed under construction, but thisCweTWil^say, that there'is not one of the projects which has^not a certain amount, of - legitimate justification.derived from th.e condition and prospects of the mining industry It is now a foregone conclusion that a copper smelter,will be erected at some1 convenient point on Vancouver Ipland. which,will have the ore of the���Lenora mine,at Mount Sicker, as its base of supply In addition to the Lenora with its steady output of from 60" to'.80 tons, a day of, first-class ore, and Its ^possible average "mine run,- were^ a smelter, con- T-enlenfTor-uver 100 toirax,<_i__>y-tbe-Tyee and Hayes mines have.npw reached the shipping stage,'While "the? Marble' bay propenes are shipping an average of 1000 tons a month. ' There te^hofany doubt vthat the JDpast'mines can'how supply a steady supply ot ore1 for a copper furnace of modern capacity apart altogether from the .contemplated developments at Howe Sound; which wjUl provide a problem in local treatment peculiar to themselves. r ��� ** For the Boundary country.two new smelters are ccmtemplated, one in^con- s.nection with.the Snowshoe mine and one in connection with the Brooklyn, and Stemwinder-mines. The necessity! and justification for these plants arise Irom the-fact that all the great mines in the Boundary country can make an important saving in smelting profits by having their own plants, while the self-fluxing character of the ore does away with many of the difficulties encountered in opoiatmg a smelter in connection with an individual mine. Therefore the duplication of copper furnaces in the Boundary district is only a queetlon of tho de\elopment of tonnage. It has also been decided to put a lead smelter ln operation in East Kootonay. East Kootenay possesses all the requisites for a successful smeltfng industry in a more marked degree than any othor portion of ��� the. Province- It iS'.iqulte -.evident ���that, a lead- stack is not only justified in East Kootenay," but?by:affording a ready market for the output of less-developed mines ������ will have an important effect in forwarding the development of .the district.;?: :'-'���"' -:-: ^;-������'���"';'"' '.'?-'���; Some discussion has arisen respecting the opportunity for aysmelter on 'Slocan lake.

"' * Suffering From Heart Disease. LONDON, October 13���Cecil Rhodes,' whose part in politics and empire making is vividly recalled by the Schnadhurst letters, Is living almost absolutely, alone at a quiet hotel on a diet and with " tho attention of a man who Is seriously, ' ill. Thero is uo doubt that he is suffer-V ing from heart disease and is no longer tho robust man of former times, yet ho never missed a day this week at the office of tho British Chartered South African Company, buryiug himself in do- ' tails and conducting long, tedious meetings without complaint or mention of his health. But after these, in the quiet, of his hotel, ho seems to become almost a wreck, "like a man liable to go off at any moment," as one of his visitors said ' on coming out of his room.

This influence is controlled by,the monicd element, and the monied element, is a potent power at Ottawa when an election is not in $ight. The argument used by this element, is, in effect, that it would be unfair to eastern investors in Le Roi shares to 'deport the Missourlans;' that the interests of the eastern investors are worthy of as much consideration as the interests of the workingman of, WALL PAPER Ihi- i. .c.ibOn wut to we ha\ . jully tlio dull or Wall Papor. kosp it moving made up bundles of ;ill lots that have run dovn in quantity.

Edward Williams,' who. is practically the agent of the" minister of justice, has been at both Rossland and Northport for two weeks. He, no doubt, has made a report on the .situation. What the'report Is, is mere conjecture. But judging from the bitter attack made on Mr. Williams in a meeting of the Rossland Liberal Association- hy Dr. Sinclair, it is only fair to assume that the report, favored the deportation of the aliens. The labor troubles in this province during the last two years have shown on�� thing very, clearly, that is, that the laws are notf strictly and impartially lenforced. The department of the attoirney-general is very clearly controlled by a man who,is unwilling to enforce any law that is -repugnant to corporations, and it is doubtful if there can be that respect for -the law that there should be as long as the department of justice is controlled by men who do not stand for the impartial enforcement of all the laws. When the corporation that violates the law is treated as is the individual who does likewise, then; and not until then, will the laws of the country be respected. The coast" papers are" dumb on the question of, ^redistribution.. They know if Yale and Kootenay are given seats in the legislative assembly and in the house of commons, according.?to population, the politics of the province will no longer "be dominated by" politicians residing in Victoria,anil Vancouver. Yale and' Kootenay should have 13 pf the 38 members of the,3iouse, and Yale and Kootenay, together with Cariboo and the Lil- looets, shc-ujld have .three of the Jelgiit members in the-house of commons. The members "from Vyale and Kootenay should stand' together on all questions, ,because it. is only iy doing so that they can obtain fair* treatment. But the trouble is/itoo .many, of the members 'from both- .Yale and -Kootenay worship Jpolitcal tin gods made at the coast, and by "so" d6ing'invariably get the worst of it individually, besides iosing prestige for their districts.' Fair and impartial ���- _ v. - i enforcement,of the laws, fair and equal distribution of .seats in both local and federal parliaments, and the guidance of up-country . leadership only, should be three of the planks in the platform, of the party .of,<-the people in .Yale and Kootenay in "the next provincial campaign. ? \- * ,* :, James.Douglas Prentice, since he has become minister of finance, is shaking up the"o__ceslof the different mining recorders throughout the province. He is. insisting, that_the work of these .offices must'be done with_the minimum?of-cler_, ical assistance. Suppose that 'James Douglas Prentice begins his work of. reform in his own office in Victoria, whero there are so many clerks that they are in each other's way. A Silverton Sufferer. SILVERTON, October 12.���To the Editor of The Tribune:" Notirig the discussion which has arisen over the issuance of a circular by the Retail Grocers' Association, which antagonizes the request of the so-called wholesalers of Nelson, for discriminating rates to the various points to wheh they ship, I, as a sufferer from tho inroads of these retail-wholesalers, wish to say a word. W. W. Beer said at the board of trade meeting the whole trouble lies in the definition of- a wholesaler. Now since my first entrance into trade, I have always understood that a wholesaler was one who sold to those who sold again, and not a seller direct to the consumer, as Nelson's wholesale-retail merchants have proven themselves to be. In proof of this I can quote the names of three wholesale-retail grooers in Nelson who entered into direct competition with Slocan merchants for the trade of mines, and ultimately succeeded in getting it; ;and yet these same retail-wholesalers hope to secure trade from the very merchants they compete against. These people are the- Kootenay Supply Company, J. Cholditch & Co., and A. Macdonald & Co. The grocery dealers in Nelson and vicinity have therefore a real grievance, and they would be doing themselves an exceeding injustice if they did not oppose' the request which would give these retail-wholesalers so great an advantage in shipping. If these -aspiring wholesalers wish for the advantages which the occupancy of a wholesalers piano would give them, let them define their position to the full satisfaction of the retailers. J. A.

CURRKNT HATK OF INTiSKEBI* PAID. TRICKS IN EYERY TRADE The Pako Athletes of the Circus. "There are tricks in all trades," said the old circus strong man, "blit the trade of the circus Hercules is mostly all tricks. Anybody with ordinary strength can do the lcats that seem so wonderful when done by those tanbark Sampsons In fact few ot them require any peculiar muscular exertion, but arc ,ac- _ cording to the New Yoik Sun, accomplished simply by tnckciy. "Tho dumbbells used by the performers are always hollow and weigh much less than the figures marked upon them would indicate When you see a man pretending to put above his head a bell marked 400 or 500 pounds you may safely conclude that he is trying to fool you The veiy greatest weight ever lifted m this way was 246 pounds, 'Cyclops' accomplishing the feat in Cleveland in 1S93. ' Genuine dumbbells, closely resembling the hollow ones, arc thi own out into the audience for inspection, but these are nevei the ones used by the strong man or woman. "Another common teat that arouses * wonder is the breaking of stones with tjie fist. Spectators think that a man who can bring his clinched hand down upon a rock and flake a piece off with one blow must have tremendous muscles, but an ordinary manvcan do this if<he knows how, while, on the other hand, old Samson himself couldn't have done it unless he had^been put on to the trick. - "You will notice that the strong man always provides'a solid piece of iron or stone upon which to crack his rocks. Now, if he held the stone to be smashed firmly against this support he might pound away at it until ^doomsday, without hurting anything but his fist. But notice closely and you will see that he holds the small stone a sixteenth of an inch above the support, and when he hits it it's the concussion that breaks it. - Any one can do it neatly after a little I' practice. . "A little more real strength is needed in the feat' of lifting a barrel of water " and two, men with'the teeth, but not much. A man ol ordinary strength can accomplish it 'To begin with, the water barel, which if "genuine, .would weigh with its contents about 900 pounds, has a false top and bottom and holds only enough water,so that a little cau be let out of the bunghole to deceive the onlookers. Fastened to the bairel and to the waist of the performer, and concealed by a sash which he wears, is a rope. This is deftly hitched to the barrel when it is lifted up' for him to take the mouthpiece in-his teeth. "The . mouthpiece exactly fits the mouth so that whatever weight, comes' hero is usually'��� sustained by .the jaw. Here comes the thrilling moment! Two men lift themselves upon the barrel, and, with two other sturdy fellows to support his back and keep his balance, the strong man slowly lifts the barrel. Bending ,back," he supports the weight at an angle of about forty-five degrees, apparently with his teeth,?but actually upon lii"sr^T_Mt"r_^t'_rTr^e__fitionan_i_.t7 but, as a matter of fact, more strength is required in the men who support him than in the star, performer himself. Not more'than 200 pounds was ever actually supported by any athlete in this fashion. "The mouthpiece used in this trick is employed in all acts where the performers appear to hang by their teeth. It is so constructed that when one gets it . in his mouth he cannot lot go of it until tho weight is taken off. So circus folks- do not really support their weight or the weight of any other object by their teeth. It is' actually on the neck that most of tho strain comes and performers doing this stunt very much get an abnormal neck development. Nowadays ray neck measures sixteen, inches, but when I was in the. business it was nineteen inches around. ;- ' "* "About the only act that requires real strength is that of supporting a horse on a teeter board, but"even in this trick .the most important needs are nerve and a well trained horse. Bodily, strength comes third, I'll never forget to my dyeing day the first time I tried this. I had- ringed up two chairs as strongly as pos1 sible in a barn and fastened them to the floor, after which I had-]put .ayboard, across between them to support a teeter, upon which I had-trained my pony to walk. When the animal had learned.his lesson thoroughly1 and wouldascend the teeter and -balance at the.'worcl of command, I prepared for the final test.- "In place of the board connecting the chairs, 1 had. put my own 'body?. Then locking my* feet!firmly in one chair and. my arms around the- back of the other, I called .'Romeo!' ': . - '��� 7-. x.Z : "Be came from the'stall, straight for the teeter? Then my nerve failed ine, I cried "Whoa!' wildly, but Romeo didn't, seem to know the meaning of the word. On he came, directly- up, the incline. There' was ho backing out; All that I could do was to hang on flesparately and this I did. .When Romeo got above my chest, he balanced himself gracefully for a while���it seemed an hour to me, though it was only a few secorids��� then he went off the other side. Ihad succeeded and the trick, was not so hard as I had feared., .-..,..'���'��� "It appears ?to the audience as if the man in the act was supporting the weight largely'with his neck. Such is not .he case, for the most of it comes on his arms and legs, and the latter are fastened so that they -cannot become SAVINGS BANK DEPARTMENT: Intorest allowed on deposits.

' "Not unlike this trick, but requiring even less muscular power, is the feat of supporting a lot of people on a board placed across your body while you are bent over backward. This is certainly the easiest way for a man to support his family I know of. Before the athlete bends his body his feet are braced so strongly that they can't slide. Then he bends back and a board is placed across his knees and shoulders, upon which another board is put crosswise for the men to get upon. In this position the bones of the arms and legs support the weight, and as the bone of a healthy human^ being is pretty strong a number of men may get upon the boaid without causing the slightest inconvenience. The bones will have to be crushed before anything will give way. "One of the strong man's greatest accomplishments, one that has a particular charm and terror for the small boy ���is the biting m two of nails. This long-cherished delusion, too, is a fake. The men who do this never use the common steel nails. They use cast-iron ones, whose gram makes them break more easily. Nor are the nails bitten in two by the teeth, as is commonly supposed, but they are simply broken by the strength of the fingers. To bite a nail in two put the thumb of your right hand under the nail near the middle, with the index finger on top of the nail at the right end. Then put the other end of the nail between your teeth on the left side of the mouth. Push down sharply and strongly with your index finger and crack goes the'nail! If you do it quickly the crowd will think you have bitten it off, but you haven't. Try this with a lead pencil if you have not a cast-iron nail handy. "A great deal of unnecessary sympathy is wasted upon the' circus man who stands up proudly in spangled tights and lets another circus man bring down a sledge hammer upon a "* rock placed upon his head, with force enough to break it. This is spectacular, but is entirely painless and calls for no great strength or endurance. Upon the cranium of the strong man is put an iron "contrivance weighing, about 150 pounds and provided "with cushions both above and where it rests upon1 the head. A pretty good sized rock is used and the hammer is also a heavy one, so you can sec that the blow that cracks.the rock 'is really a serious one. But most of the force is, taken, up. by the.rock-and the rest by the iron and the cushions, while the only sensation felt by the subject is a gentle tap. ','No more difficult \than this is the act whereby the hero of the canvas tent permits a rock to be broken upon his; chest, with a blow, from a-sledge, hammer. So long as the subject's back is free and does not rest against any solid object, the trick is perfectly simple. A ."little illustration. Take a board up and let it lie freely > in your hand and hit it smartly with a hammer. It is difficult to hurt your hand, and the thicker the board the less the sensation. But now put your hand on the table and hit the board. Hurts, doesn't it? Well, it's the same with the rock on the chest. -Let.nie-try-it'.on-you." The reporter demurred, but the former strong man hunted up a stone and a sledge hammer, which he said weighed nine pounds. He put the rock on the lower part of his own chest, bent backward, and told the reporter to break it. This the,latter did successfully and then consented to have it tried on. himself. With a mighty blow from the sledge the rock was-shattcrcd, but the only sensation felt by the subject was a slight pressure on tho chest. NELSON BRANCH, BURNS BLOCK.

Botha's army must have retreated from Fort Itala with a fine appreciation of the disadvantages under which the British fought throughout the Transvaal war. There can be no doubt that the effectiveness of the Boers has been overestimated- from the habit of judging their achievements in actions in which they met the enemy on then own terms It is also probable that crifcism of the British army has been harsher by reason of judgment passed upon engagements fought- how, when and where the enemy chose. 'It'is common comment that the' Boers have a. general resourcefulness which on numerous fields was not displayed by the British troops The Boers < won these testimonials fighting almost entirely on the defensi.e. Fiom the engagement at Fort Itala it is apparent that' the effective and sometimes' brilliant qualties*which the Boers, exhibited-* on the defensive are not features of then- work as assailants. Fighting on the defensive a mere handful of British troops routed and inflicted heavy lobs upon an attacking rmy of Boeis The battle suggests the probability that the Bi itish are-better and'the Boers less brilliant' soldiers' and strategists than has been the generally accepted inference from results m.the South African .,war.���Toronto Telegram.

MINE SUPPLIES AND HEAVY HARDWARE Blowers, Exhausters, , Hand Shaft Pumps, Pipe and Fittings Steam Packing, Leather Rubber. Belting, Hose, Etc. Agents for Giant Powder Co., Truax Ore Cars, Canton Steel. local smelters and mills. The value of this ore can safely be estimated at, $150,- 000. Mining and smelting and milling it gave employment to 4000 men, all of whom should be citizens of thelcountry, in order that the country should, have the full benefit of the industry, an industry, that is based on one of the natural resources of tho province. The smelting and milling supplies used by these men and the wages paid them totals a large sum monthly, probably not far from-half a million dollars. All of. this money Is produced from the mines, not a dollar of it coming from the outside. If this is a statement of fact, the mines of the camps in the Boundary and the Slocan and in the neighborhood of Nelson and Rossland are not only paying their way, but paying handsome profits besides. If the mines that are.now shipping, produce ore that sells for $675,000 a month at a cost of ?500,000 for labor and sup-" plies, 'the capital invested gets a return1 of $175,000 a month, or ?1,680,000 3 year. If this is the earning power of the capital invested when the'mines at Rossland are being worked with unskilled labor and. some of the largest mines in the Slocan are shipping only the ore taken out in . doing^ development work, r what will the earnings be when all'these properties are. being worked with full forces of skilled miners? Mining in British1 Columbia can only result-in large and regular dividends being paid to the-investors1 of capital; arid- it- only a little patience is used and. a little, give-and-take exercised, in" no bther portion of the Pacific Coast will labor be so well remunerated. .
