His oxooutton was set for the 23rd of this month.

Many intimations aro iniule tbat the execution of Theodore Dnraut, the convicted murdcrerof Blanch Luniont. will never tako place. Two of the state board of prison directors in interviews suid they think Durrant should uot be hanged : two others favor his execution, and the fifth is uou-com- mital, Governor Budd declines to say how he will act when the petition for clo- mency is presented, bnt many of his confidential friends state Unit the go- vevuor has privately expressed belief in Currant's guilt.

Thoy report that the •British Columbia m.'oi -g boom has done much to ndvcii'se Canada in Europe. English members of parliament, leading financiers and business people of tho highest standing aro already much iutorcsted. At present poople aro very careful iu consequence of losses sustained by many in lbe gold Holds of South Africa ami West Australia, but tho o is no doubt a great nmonut of capital is being supplied by tho old country for tho dovolopmeutof tho British Columbia mines, aud this sumiuorwill soo agrentdoal more money come out bore for that purpose. A critical period lias arrived in tho history of British Columbia mining. It is tho time whon tho tide may bo taken at the ebb and lead ou to fame and fortune. Tho railway bill is passing through its different stages iu the provincial legislature to onablo the federal government to pass judgment and, it is hoped, to supplement bonuses. Tho logislauire is also considering tho advisability of requiring United States citizens to tako out naturalization papers beforo thoy can operate in British Columbia miuing couutry. These two measures uro all important to the interior and may docide the fate of tho numerous inland mining conips. In a nutshell Canada gavo Rossland to tho United States in exchange for getting tho whole vast mining r.reu of tho prov iuco advertised to tho world. Tho United States still has Rossland, but if tho Americans aro drivou out. British Columbia will stand still for another 10 or 15 years. American citizens risked their money aud deserved their reward- As far as railways aro concerned, if tho railroad bill now before tho session passes, a couutry of known vast riches will bo opened up aud mado accessible "Western Mining World. known what tho earnings of the com pany amount to but it is uo doubt a fact that the company could pay just about twice ns much. It has always beeu tue policy of Mr. Daly to expend largo sums in development work both In But.e mines as well as on outsitlt propositions, und it is owing to tlib gentleman's bioad minded manner in ul' his business dealings that the Ana oonda company uow finds itself the po- sessor of nearly one hundred very fine copper properties in this district. Un der a more curtailed management n< such acquisition would have booi made, The main production of ore it coining from no more that eight mines. i.e., the Anaconda, St. Lawrence,Novel Sweat, tho two Mountain Cons, Green MoiMtfrn, High Oro nud Diamond! Tlie daily output is variously estimated at fiom five to six thousand tons of on;, ull of wh-'ck is hauled to the smelters to Anaconda over tlie Butte, Anaconda and Paoiflo railroad.

Ho said there might be a question between a mine owner and the oro.fu as to the purposes for which the surface rights could lie usetl, but a mine or claim owner had a right to eject anyone he saw lit fiom bis mineral location, and could prohibit, if necessary people from setting a foot on the pro po.ty.
