��������� VOL. 2. NO. 18. SANDON, B. C, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1898. PRICE FIVE CENTS. The-Land of-Big Ledges. Ainsworth, the oldest and in many respects the best known camp of the Kootenay country, is situated on the west bank of Kootenay lake, about 35 miles north of Nelson and "about half that distance south of Kaslo. It is distinctly a silver lead camp, although in the past season or two several very promising gold-bearing quartz claims have been located along some, of the creeks tributary to the camp. The' work on these, however, has not been sufficient to demonstrate their value and even' under thc most favorable , conditions it will bu another year or two before Ainsworth can lay clttim to any actual gold producing mines. Tt-s now more than "14 years ago since Charles Olsen', the veteran landlord of the Hot' Springs hotel,, penetrated the great northern *��������� wilderness; and, attracted by the evidences of vast mineral deposits, constructed a rude cabin and laid the foundations for the present town of Ainsworth. Since that time the old town has had .many ups and downs, but withal it has held its own pretty'well, and is to day f..r more substantial and promising than at any time during its history. Three times it has been almost swept but of existence by-fire but the indomitable pluck and energy of its citizens' have risen superior to the catastrophe, ;andceach,-ime a1 new-' Ainsworth'.'has, risen from the ashes of the old. Tnnu, merable times have rich ��������� strikes .in ether camps.caused a general- exodus of miners and prospectors from Ainsworth until it would seem that the camp would be deserted; but in"-time the backward drift'would set in and Ainsworth would resume its former air of life and activity,., ore in its tunnel which has been reinin a distance of nearl}' 500 feet, giving a depth in the first vein to the north and an orech'ute of 94 feet uncovered. An upraise of 47 feet has been run and is in ore all the way up. Numerous assays have been made from the ore in the drift and upraise, showing, total valwes ranging from $68 to $104. The ore-will average from 60 to 65 percent, in lead and about 4.0 ounces in silver. Assays for gold have shown from $1.50 to S2 in value. It is the' intention of .the company to commence drifting on the same vein at once,and to continue work through the winter. The company is free from debt and it is ex: pected that enough ore will be shipped this' winter to payfor all 'development expenses. The Banker adjoins thc Albion on the north and the same veins that have been cut in the latter property run through the Banker, buc not enough work has been done on the Banker tunnel yet to cut these veins.: The Tariff which lies east of the Highlander is owned by Braden Brothers, the owners of the Pilot Bay smelter, and during the past year they have shipped m-iny thousand 'tons of ore from the property. 'At present the mine is closed down, .but work and shipments will be resumed this fall. "To the north of the camp the 'Twin mine is working a force of eight' men on a tunnel which will cut the ore body at a depth of 500. The tunnel is now in about^Ofeetand there remains -ubout.100 feet ofjwork to be done before the, ore body is'cncountered.' The Twin is owned by an eastern Canada syndicate." -\l- . . ��������� / ������������������ ��������� The regular meeting of the city council was held Monday Inst. Absent Aids. Cunning and Switzer.

I Oil. Sandon's Large Ore Shipments. ORE IN G11EAT BODIKS. Although the ores of_ thc Ainsworth camp are of low grade the immense bodies more than make up for the' deficiency in values and at' the present day the low'price of mining and , treating silver-lead ores warrants the. assertion being - made that" Ainsworth will ultimately become, one of, the ' greatest ore "producing-camps "in"tbe province. ' The cartip at presentis overshadowed, ���������, by'the high grade silver camps of Sandon and Whitewater and by the great gold camp of Rossland, bwt in spite of this a great deal of money is being spent in the steady development of the mines of Ainsworth. MINES NOW WORKING. The No. One, which has in past years paid its owners many thousand dollars in dividends, is working a large forcp of men on a new tunnel which is destined to cut the ore body at a depth of ever 500 feet. The mine is stripping but little ore at present, only enough to pay the development work that -is going on. _ j , Among the other properties that have been- worked during the past aurnmer are thc Highlander, -Black Diamond, Albion. Twin, -Rand, and several properties on Crawford creek which are under bond to ;an eastern syndicate/headed by John F. Stevens, late chief engineer of the Great North- ". - ������������������ ,, i- em. The Highlander is owned by a Philadelphia syndicate, headed by Maxwell Steveston, a prominent lawyer of the Quaker city. The company has about ^25,000 in thc treasury which will be '���������expended in development purposes. , Tlie company has also leased the Black >. Diamond and Little Phil and is ship- . ping about 40 tons per day from thc former property to their own concentrator which is located at Mile Point and is connected with the Black Diamond by means of a cable tramway. The Black Diamond hus an immense body of lino concentrating ore which averagps about 60 per cent, lead and from SO to 50 ounceo of silver.' It runs about seven into one and can be mined, shipped to the concentrator and treated ������t a cost of not exceeding $2.50 per ton. The cost can be greatly reduced when the property is in condition to ship larger quantities of ore. A force of men are at work sinking en the main vein of' the Highlander and at a depth of 175 feet have encountered a promising body of galena ore which gi\ea every evidence of giving the richest strike yet made in camp. Assays have shown several ounces of silver/and from 50 way up. Numerous assays have been taken. ,The company has two shifts at work on the Little Phil doing development work and expects to cut the ore vein during the coming month. The Albion adjoins the Highlander on the north and is owned by a Spokane company of which W.A. Aldrich, secretary of the Spokane Gas company, is president. The company has expended upwards of $15,800 in development work and has cut two veins of FOR THE C. P R. Total ....*7:iCi 88 , Public Works Com. reportfd thc completion of the gaol.

Sherwood, in favor of the defendants. The decision involves the Bismark mineral claim, one of a very "valuable group now being worked by F. P. Sherwood fin South Fork, and aside from the heavy monev inteiests effected, is perhaps one of the most important yet given in British Columbia. Briefly the facts are as follows : The plnin- tiffs lo'cated the Gold Cure on August 12,1895, and recorded August 23. Tne following year an order in council was made extending-the time in which assessment work shall be done and rerecorded, 60 days in certain cases. Plaintiffs applied to the Gold Commissioner for such extension and it was granted. However, they finished the work within the year, relying upon the extension of timo. On ttic 9th of October Chas. Sampson, knowing nothing of the Gold Cure and seeing no stakes, located thc Bismnrk lapping the Gold Curo. The following year F. P. Sherwood became an innocent purchaser of the Bismark, which he hhs since developed into a valuable mine. He made application for a crown grant, was ndversed, and the ease came up for trial last June, with Messrs. McAnn it McKay of this city for the defendants and Messrs. McDonald & Johnson of Nelson, representing plaintiffs. There was little or no evidence taken,the pasc was of law. The defendants set up tho claim that the order in council giving a'gold commissioner' p<*wer lo extend the time beyond one year in which Assessment work ahull be done under mineral act 1896 was" ultra vires. There were other points but all minor. The court sustained the defendants and held that section 161 of the mineral act 1896 does not confer power upon the Lieutenant-Governor in council to make an order extending beyond one year the time in which assessment work .hall be done as required by the act. finds for defendents Sampson when a j sufficient quantity h__s be< n blocked out. Che summer's'assessment work in the local camp has been vary s uif-fac- tory and a number ot ssns-itioiiai surface showings are thc result. - Ernest Mansfield, a prominent mining man of London, has been taking a number of working bonds on proper- tics here foi Englisn and French capital. t There are a number of good sized deals quietly under way for proporti. s on Lemon and Springer creeks, which those who are on tho inside, say are liable to be closed this fall in time to get to work before the snow Hi<\.. Although winter is nearly two months away the town is beginning to prepare for it The merchants on the outskirts 'of tho business section are moving into closer quaiu-rs. giving our business streets a moio compact appearance. Three cases of mild (. {.huid is the record so far this summer. Ihesani- tarv condition of tho town i_ good and Many residents say that times are dull there at present, bu. we are confident they will not remain so. In the past', experienced miners and prospectors traversed the hills round about nnd decided there was nothing there worth developing, but strange to say wisdom is not always confined to those who arc proverbially wisp. ' To-day the town has around it���������the Mollie Hughes, the California, the Bosun, the Adirondack, Fidelity and Mountain Chief properties that either have shipped or are shipping at intervals, and all promise to be equal to the best, and under further development to be capable ef giving employment in th'e aggregate to .three hundred miners or upwards. But this is' not all, thc place ia as well represented by promising prospects as most successful camps in the 'country. Here is a partial list of them : Marion, Sandow, Turn's, Lone Star, Eclipse, Mcrrimac, Denvor, Lake View, Convention, Chieftain, Queen City, Lost Tiger, Estella and Silver Bell. Though these jure not mines, in the full force of the word, rnkny of them are more than prospects, as their leads have been reached and their samples of ore pronounced excellent. It only requires what, the whole Slocan is in'need of���������a little more capital emploj ed to bring thorn to the front as regular snippers. As many of these can be easily reached from the Three Forks wagon road, they offer special inducements to the capitalist, and all being convenient to the town they will in operation be a source of great strength, to it. - In short what is true of the mining surroundings of many of tho most promising camps in the countr}' is equally true of New Denver���������but little is '.nown as yet of its capabilities. Tho town is it.elf situated on one of the most beautiful inclinations, facing Slocan lake, to be found in the country. , A water supply can readily, be got, and the site is ample lor a place of-50,000 inhabitants. It has much excellent soil, and as a result there are many beautiful gardens, and in a short time will have large orchards. It is a government town with a record and other government offices. It has fine stores, hotels and all the other business places of a go-a-head town. hoe on Sandon creek, and has a lurge body of ore blocked out. He intend, to start rawhiding as .oon as the snow comes,'and will put in a tram next spring, Iu this connection it may be stated that hitherto, all Slocan ore destined for eastern smelters have been sent by way of Revelstoke. JS'ow that the' Crow's Nest Pass road is available they will r.i8S through Kelson instead and a considerable increase in the local" staff of the C P.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1898. t������be_HMmn0lRepiew SANDON, BRITISH COLUMBL-, SATURDAY OCTOBER 8, 1898. Subscription $2.00 Pek Year Strictly in Advnace. CAPITAL WANTED. From eastern papers, it is evident that capitalists in the east are coming to the conclusion that there is more of British Columbia that is valuable for,ore production , than is embraced within the boundaries of Rossland. Of course the Miner of that city will declare this to be a libel on the country ; but even at the risk of the anathemas of our confrere, we cannot help saving so. Rossland has at the present several valuable properties ; and, as work developes, it will have more ; vbut tHc Slocan has them by thc score, and eastern capitalists are beginning to find it out. Were it not for the intricacies of litigation, and which we would like to see the laws of the country curbing, in the interest of the province, Slocan City would have hall a dozen or more mines shipping steadily, employing a great many men and encouraging the enterprising people of that place. Silverton has been Jess inflicted with restraining influences than its sister town, and as a result it has several properties shipping steadily and the place, forging ahead rapidly. . New Denver also in the Bosun and California has its regular shippers, the Mollie Hughes and others having . also made shipments. _ Three Forks has two or three regular shippers and would have several more but ior that monster���������litigation. Sandon has some 30 properties shipping, most of them regularly, and so on of McGuigan and Whitewater. Activity has again set in at Ainsworth also, and with thc advancing price of silver many of the large bodied low grade mines there can be worked well to advantage. Wc think ,,wc are doing no injustice to any part of the country when we say investments can be made to great advantage in any portion of this wide Slocan, and eastern capitalists, as we have said above, are .commencing to find that out. There are a few things in ��������� such connection they should all learn and bear well in mind : It takes but a small fraction of the capital required to work a gold mine'in, say the Rossland section, lhat it does to manage the best paying silver-lead properties of the Slocan; that for the money invested in purchase and operation, there is relatively a larger return from the Slocan mines. In substance while it takes millions to purchase and operate a Le Roi at Rossland' as many tens of thousands will purchase a handsome silver-lead property in the Slocan that will turn out $100 lo the ton of ore against the $35 of the Le Roi's at Rossland. The company that can command their millions of capital can, of course, buy where they like, and virtually do as they please; but there are mining companies and individuals who have a little capital to invest but cannot reach the higher figure,and the Slocan is the place for them. Here properties with the leads reached 'can be bought for from $5,000 to $50,000, and made to pay from .the day purchased, with handsome dividends assured as work is prosecuted. This is what we want our eastern cousins to fully comprehend. of the-electors, and will be insufficient to place us in office again." We expect nothing but a blow for the government from the result. If they-fail to give Canada prohibitory legislation, they will forfeit the temperance vote ; and the majority of the electors, as shown by the ballots, aie not temperance people and disinterested in the question, will not be influenced by the results in a general e.ection. Prohibitory legish tion will not then be in line with ihe majority vote of' thc country, and lo refuse it will leave the non-interested in t eir party allegiance as before, and the whole temperance vote arrayed against them. Looked at from any point of view the result only places the government "between the devil and the deep sea." THE WHIRLPOOL. Simple Living Should Ease the Strain <��������� But There is Small ChanceForlt. THE PLEBISCITE. Although the prohibitionists carried Canada for prohibition by some 40, 000 votes on Thursday last, it in no way declares that the Canadians are for prohibition, as not more than one- half the vote of the country was polled. Temperance people had their organization perfect, and polled their entire strength, while one-half of the people, not ardent prohibitionists, felt so indifferent they did not think it worth' their while to vote at all. In the vote cast for the plebiscite will be found many ballots ' cast by Conservatives, in no way interested in the question, simply to embarrass the Laurier government. The Liberal party have time, and again told the people of Canada that if they'could get a majority for prohibition, they would enact- prohibitory legislation, and many Conservatives made up their minds that "they would like to see the government try it." We think the vote has done nothing more than place the government in a dilemma. They will reason this way : "The vote cast is not a solid temperance vote, and even if it was, it is not a majority Probably all of us admit that if we could simplifiy our lives we should be much happier. No one, of course, would be willing to go back to the nakedness of the savage, the tepee of the Indian, nor to a diet of herbs and raw meat. Civilization has made our bodies and our minds unfit for the privations which our ancestors endured without discomfort. This somewhat vague thing which we call "civilization" has given us tastes, habits and tasks so inexorable in their demands that life often seems not worth-living. Men toil ten and twelve hours a 'day -ind lie sleepless half the night trying to make money enough to gratify some notion which is not worth gratifying. The men and women wb������ work thc longest hours and subject themselves to thc greatest strain- are usually those who, if the majority worked three or four hours a day, could obtain plenty to supply the simple wants of a calm and happy life, but "civilization" and that imperious founding which we call fashion,transforms us into drudges with scarcely a moment which we can call our own, while we are forced to make bricks whether we need them or not and whether wTe can find straw 'Or not. The trials of business and social li e are intensified ten-told by tho follies of trying to keep np nn unnatural p.ice; bankrupts, swindlers, thieves, suicides float past us down the stream of time or rattle their chains in the prison to whioh we arc perhaps hastening ourselves ; lint no one seems to tuke warning. Our t.-iaks 'ollow us to o'ir homes; our tn.ils begin afresh where we hoped to (ind peace; our bunions press heaviest, oft-times, where we thought tu'obtain rest.. The little spun of life allotted to us is filled with dollar marks and lonj; rows of figures ; our minds are storm- swept with speculations, schemes, inventions and efforts to enrich ourselves at the expense of others. Labor mu_.t light capital to get a small shure for itself; capital has to fight labor to keep from being swamped ; and both 1 ibt.i and ciipilB-l on thi- oonliiieiit :ir<- lot.! - ii.j, acruBS the uuo >ii lo Ihe old land, .ind wondering how, in the coming days, high wages can be paid in the new world while the goods made here must compete with the goods made in thc other countries, where labor is cheaper and thc wants of the artizans fewer. When we glance into the future intelligent.}', whether we are laborers or capitalists, we decide that we must simplify our lives, be content with less profit ai_d undertake smaller expenses. This is as far as ever we get; to-morrow, next day, next year, we will move into the smaller house, eat less luxurious viands, spend less on costly raiment and be content with a family which is not always making demands upon us grealer.than our resources can bear. When young people marry they t.hink that love will sweeten all the bitter things of life, and, while it lasts, simple things are sufficient, but the love of money soon separates the man from thc simple sweets of domestic life, and as he busies himself racing with the rich his wife begins to compete with her neighbors, and fashion and custom and a perversion of maternal love lead her to deck her children in clothes as fine as are worn by any inthe street. It does not take long to separate us from our simple ideals, and it seems almost impossible to ever get back to them when once ambition and the delights of conquest in money matters influence, or even notoriety has been tasted.���������Toronto Saturday Night. A city business man, who gets to work at nine in the lnoi-iing, takes an hour for lunch and leaves for home at four or live in the afternoon, little understands the hardships of the life of the farmer, who starts to work at break of day and frequently works on into the night by lantern- light. ; ������ A man to endure i$ the hardships of a . r farmer's life, must be robust phj'sically at the outset, and if he would live a long life, always keep a watchful eyt. upon his health. He should remember that it is the apparently trifling disorders that eventually make the big diseases. It does not do for a hard working iiicin to neglect bilious attacks or spells of indigestion. If he does, he will soon find himself fiat on his back.with malaria or crippled with rheumatism. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovers' is the best of all medicines for haid working men and women. It makes the appetite keen and hearty, the digestion perfect, the liver active, the blood pure and lich with the life- giving elements of the food, and the nerves strong and steady. It builds firm muscles and solid flesh. It is the greatest of all blood-makers and -purifiers. It cures malarial troubles and iheumalism. It is an unfailing cute for biliousness and indigestion. An honest dealer will not try to substitute some inferior preparation for the sake of a little additional profit. '* I was a suflcrer fci four years with malnriai fever and cliills," writes Robert Williams, of Kiowa, Bather Co., Kan.

A. DREAMER. Costivene.ss, constipation and torpidity of thc liver are surely, speedily antf'permanently cured by Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are tiny, sugar-coated granules. One little Pellet " is a gentle laxative, and two a mild cathartic. They never gripe. They stimulate and strengthen the jaded organs until a tegular habit is formed and may then be discontinued without a return of the trouble. 'They stimulate, invigorate and regulate the stomach, liver and bowels. Medicine stores sell them, and have no other pills that are "just as good." had fortunately escaped the vigilance of the professional olaimijumper. The statutes passed last winter c'-.anged this. Now if one's license has inadvertantly expired, relief is possible. . One need only post in'the office of the mining recorder notice of intention to adjust the matter, and at the same time forward to the minister of mines a statement of tho facts in the case, accompanied by a fee of ?5. The minister of mines thereupon issues a new certificate, dated back to thc time when the previous one expired. If between the time that the first certificate expired and the time that notice, of intention to apply for relief is posted, any of the applicant's property has been re-located, no remedy is pos sible. On the other hand re-locations of the applicant's ground made by other people after he hao posted his notice of intent to apply for relief, are nit valid. Important Summons. Thc Ottawa correspondent of the Moil and Empire says that Hon. Mr. Sifton has been summoned very suddenly and urgently to Quebec and tlie report has it he liss been sent for foi the purpose of endeavoring to induce him to retire from the cabinet and either accept' thc governorship of the North West Territories or succeed Mr. Green way as premier of Manitoba, the latter being, says the correspondent, anxious to: retire' and go into the senate. A man in New York was arrested for bigamy.. He told the police he nad m ore wives than a street car could carry. T he proper way to punish that man is to shut him up in a house with thc whole band of them and make him live the rest of his days with them nV- LAPSED LICENSES. How They May Be Renewed Under the Mining Laws. The rcordcr's office just now is plastered inside and out with notices of application to be relieved from the consequences ef a lapse in various people's ..liner's licenses. Under the old laws if a miner's certificate expired for a single day, all title to uncrowngranted mineral properties immediately lapsed. The prospector was liable to find all his property jumped. The only thing for him to do was to get a ni.w miner's license and re-looate such ground as Many persons cannot take plain cod-liver oil. They cannot digest it. It upsets the stomach. Knowing these things, we have digested the oil in Scott's Emulsion of Cod- liver Oil with Hypophosphites; that is, we have broken it up into little globules, or droplets. We use machinery to do the work of the digestive organs, and you obtain the good effects of the digested oil at once. That is why you can take Scott's Emulsion. 50c. nnd Sl.co, all druggists.

"People wiH"be,returning fo town again now, however, and the winter' should see! a revival in mining all around. It has boon absolutely impossible to do anything in the'way of .floatations during tbe past few .months. The public would not look at mines. ' In regard to.British Col uin.bia.it may be said that it is generally looked upon as. u new country for investment and it will provoke yet a good deal of attention Heretofore B. C. has not'been sov widely known as other countries winch have boomed, rich discoveries, but which have not' been able to show such , permanent investments as have'already becn'sh'own here. The British public are slow but'surc, but when they bitd they bite hard. They have had some ^difficulty in comprehending the difference between Klondyke and B. C, but they are beginning to understand^' Klondyke has not verified expectations and people at home aro very shy of anything pertaining to that region. This is due to th'e exploration companies which were floated last year and never had any real assets to their credit. Their properties .were either mythic.il or quite unproven. and some of the schemos for taking heavy ma- chiner3r into thc country were impracticable and absurd in the extreme and excited the ridicule of the financial papers. A large number of B. 'C. companies are now all ready to issue with the first signs of returning confidence on the market. It is believed most" of' these properties are ganuine mining ��������� investments, and if thc market is firm" thpy, ��������� will go to allotment on a satisfactory basis. ' ' Both gold and copper properties should be in good demand, but those -with a substantial amount of development work done, will stand a much .better chance. ������ , *' Many people Iook'forward to seeing a B. C. boom si_nilar to what oceurred in London in-connection with Westra- lia. There is a,wide divergence' however between the two countries which ���������would preclude such an occurrence here. In Westralia the immensely _ rich strikes, made simply created a " fever of excitement in London, which ' produced startling and not altogether profitable results.- Here things are. slightly different. The ore of this province arc more or less average grade and it is a process of time and development to obtain returns., Thc element of invest for dividends and consistent returns will be more in evidence here and .therefore the increase and expansion of the mining industry will be more gradual but none the less sure. ���������IiIIUM The'"Yukon Route.

It is generally understood Mr. Sifton intends to introduce his Tcslin Lake railway bill again the coming session. Lot our readers enquire what this means. Mann and McKenzie wore to get 25,000 acres of land in the country wherever they could best suit themselves with all the minerals thrown in. The government has been selling land in that vicinity the past summer at $10 per acre with , minerals reserved. At this rate they'would be giving thc contractors ������250,000 per mile and the minerals besides for the railway, or well on to S-10,000,000 in lands and all the minerals found thereon. It is little wonder Mann and Mackenzie stick to the government like a pup to a root.

Jffi^^OjfafJjfs aX.t.^JKf&J Do you see this package? keep it in your mind The many advantages enjoyed by 'Rosebery put -before the public, CLAIMED WITHOUT OPPOSITION. Its Advantages as a Distributing Center. . . Rosebery is the| >nly town in Kootenay, having , both railroad and' steamboat connection that can ship goods daily to ten different towns, whereby the shipper can see his wares leave his hands and that they will be received by'the consignee within two hours. 1 ' 1 ' ��������� Its Advantages as a Railroad Center. Rosebery enjoys tlie position of king of the - funnell as it were, for the railroad business'of the * whole of the Kootenays. All ore and matter for shipment from Nelson, Trail Creek and the Slocan must, and is now passing out this way to the main . line of the C. P. R., as well as all "goods coming in from Revelstok^to the Kootenay country. i NOTE, To substantiate this: The C. P. R/ - , are now putting in track weigh scales at Rosebery, ,' the first and only scales that has'been put in on any ' of the C. P. R. branches in Kootenay���������which goes to show the importance of this point by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's actions. Its Advantages as a Steamboat Point. _ ' , Rosebery claims, without opposition, of being the only junction on the lake, unlike Slocan City,.' - ������ where you can' step of? the steamer to a waiting ' "' train and continue your journey. You can take either a north or south train at this terminus; consequently Rosebery is the best transient town in , the race. Nevertheless we claim Slocan City ' , ' second in importance, and would say watch the - head and foot of Slocan Lake, viz.��������� ' " ROSEBERY AND SLOGAN CITY. Its Advantages as a Manufacturing. _ Center. As a manufacturing center Rosebery claims to have demonstrated the fact that after the careful observation of the Denver (Colorado) Ore Coy's l manager, as the natural advantages of all points in * Kootenay for the treatment of ores the cheapest, Rosebery was selected, and they now are erecting works, with a capacity of 250 tons per day, which , ' will be in operation within 90 days; and it is their intention to pay out monthly in the vicinity of $100,000. I might also add Rosebery has the largest water power from Wilson river flowing into Slocan Lake. AS TO CLIMATE. Rosebery claims the mildest climate on Slocan Lake, from its admirable southern exposure and absolute shelter from the north; snow always leaves the place about the 15th of March. AS A TOWNSITE. As a townsite, Rosebery^ is without a peer. It is possessed of all the fiat land available at the mouth of the Wilson river leading to the valley��������� mining region���������consequently there is no danger of any contagion. The title is a Cirown Grant and is perfect. All purchasers of lots are safe in this respect. The only safe speculative townsite in the Slocan is Rosebery. Why should I say the only safe speculative town- site in the Slocan ? Because Rosebery business lots to-day are only $150 to $200 each and are bound to increase rapidly this summer. Tlirse . figures can, and will, double before long. The time to buy is now. Don't wait till they are from $700 to $1,000, asyou did in Slocan City last May, go in on the ground floor and make a few dollars in speculation j if you want to invest go to Vancouver or Winnipeg ; if you want to speculate and and clean up money go quick to Rosebery before lots are out of sight.

They are at present, working on the inside,and when finished it will be a handsome structure. The ties preparatory to track laying are being put in place. Several - new subscriptions to the brass band fund have been received by the treasuier; but still there is a shortage of over -?100. The instruments will be here in a short l.imo, and the boys would like to see this amount made up before their arrival. Macdonakl Bros, are overhauling the Balmoral hotel from cellar to attic. They have ro-piper_d and re-painted, and are now putting in a new front. 'J he dinit.g apartments will be amongst tbe largest and best fitted up " in the country under the charge of Mr. Trenary. James Hood, of this city, got an arm broken and other injuries while working on the court house at Kaslo the othpr day. A ������c_.__bld he was working on, some 20 feet high, gave ivny and he came to the bottom. Nothing serious, however, is looked for, and Mr. Hood will take a quiet holiday, in this city. There is talk of organizing a btock company in town to build a union skating and curling rink, with a gymnasium on the second flat. No doubt it would be not only a great convenience but a good advi rtisement for the place, but it would cost some money to put up a proper building for ail throe purposes. In the death of "Doc" Aikens on Thursday last, the Slocan loses one of its oldest landmarks. We believe be was in his earlier days n practicing vet, and in the earlier d.iy_ of this country he kept a few drugs at Kaslo and latter here posing as a duiggist. Eventually strong drink got the start of him and he became considerable of a wr^ck. He was said to have been clever in his better days, and always of a genial disposition. There ia much changing around in the restaurant business in the city these days. Thc Balmoral is op"iiing up their enlarged diningroom and restaurant; Messrs. Millard and Thompson have leased the P_ili_cc cafe and are. fitting it up in palatial style for their customers; Albcrni Poirier, ol Montreal, hap taken over tho Bryan C-f*5, and is now d iwn to work ; Mr. Johnson, late of the Cliirton house, has taken over Cnindall's old stand, and says he is "as busy as a nailer." If there is one thing more than another the people of" this city have to be thankful for it is thu excellent sani tary conditions of thc place. In the towns all around we hear of levers, but they are now, and always ha.c been, unknown in Sandon. Tnis is mainly owing to our abundrmee of the best water in the world. People may make more money in some other places than they do here; but it is a great satisfaction for all, excepting the doctors, to know we have absolute immunity from contagious diseases. Tom French, a miner,-but a short time here from Cripple creek, we believe, attempted to end his e.irtbly troubles on Sunday evenin. by taking about 50 grains ot morphine, enough to kill ten men, the doctors say. His anxiuly in thc size, of his dose w.is largely the cause of his lack of success. The doctors were soon on the spot, and succeeded in saving the poor fellow. No' particular reason for hi. rash act has been given, further than that he appears to be tired of the world and its ways. Men in that staLe of 'mind are true subjects for sympatny. H. A.
