Last week word was received at the offices of the Wellington Colliery Company in Victoria that 40 of the miners who had recently arrived from Scotland to enter employ "of the company, were dissatisfied with the outlook' at the . Union mines and had left there for Nanaimo. Mr. A. Lindsay, of R, Duns- muir & Son, said that he was unable to understand why the men refused to work. They <a:ne to this country on the understanding that they were to be paid not less than $3 a day. This was guaranteed them, and as they grew I'tim.'liar with the ..mines they were as Hired that they would make better money than the sum above quoted. ��������� Mr. Lindsay does not consider that Union is an undesirable place to live, and it. is puzzling him to know why the men should have grown dissatisfied. The Scotch miners who went to the Extension mines appear to be getting along finely and no trouble is expected from that source.���������'Victoria -Tillies. returning will arrive at 10:10 a. m.

The Nelson-Kaslb service will remain as at present, that is, leave Nelson daily, except Sundays, at 4 p. in. and returning at 11 a. m. The i time of the Nelson-Kootenay Landing service is not yet definitely known, but it is expected that the boat will leave Nelson in the early morning, and returning will arrive at Nelson in the afternoon about 5 or 6 p. m. This service wi 1 he daily, connecting to and from the Crow's Nest branch and all eastern points. Tamarak's Long Tunnel. The lamaraclc copper mine of Michi can is able to boast the deepest shaft in the world. This will when completed at the end of the yt-ar be a full mile in depth���������nearly 6,300 feet. Work was begun on it so far back as 1895. The Red Jacket shaft of the Calumet & Hecla is noted for its great depth, but one at the' Tamarack will exceed it. The Minneapolis Journal says of the shaft that a sufficient depth has already been obtained lo render the heat somewhat oppressive to the miners. This condition will he bettered lateron, when underground connections have been made on the .shafts 1 and 2 to the south and 3 and 4 to thenorth. The sinkir.g of No. 5 Tamarack is in several respects the greatest engineering feat ever undertaken��������� in 'mining work, and the perfect success which is now safe to perdict for the work, is no slight triumph for ("apt.

The St. Eugene mine at, Moyie will pay a dividend every three months after the 1st of November. Sandon ore shipments this week were: Payne, 180; Last Chance, 100; Sloean StirOO; Ruth, 53; Coin. 15; .J.G.Steele, ���������1. Total 40!) tons. An oiler of $100,000 cash was refused by the owners of the Victoria group on Meadow Creek in the Duncan-Lardeau. This property is owned entirely by Kaslo people, and-the offer was made through Caldwell The mine was under bond for $30,000 last year by Toronto people, but unworked by them on account of winter coming too soon. The refusal of this offer seems to indicate that work will be resumed in the hear future. A meeting of the shareholders of the Golden Star mine has been called for the 17tli inst., to decide upon the future policy of the company. It is stated that the funds are exhausted, and, with the present machinery and the present low level reached in the mine, it is impossible to work it on a piofitable basis. The oi e now is of so low a grade that an increase in the number of stamps is necessary. There is a probability that the company will be reorganized on an assessable basis. The latest transactions in the stock have been at 2J^ for a share; some are now'' ottered, we are told at $2.50. The Courts. OTHER LOCALS. From Far and Near The legislature of New Brunswick is making a claim for $230,000, interest'for thirty-one years, at 5 per cent., on the sum of $150,000, which, it is alleged, was withheld for that period by the Dominion government, when the Eastern Kx- tenson Railway was taken over as a part of the Intercolonial. About 30 miles of the new railwav between Sault Ste. Mario and Moose Factor}-, are already laid. This line will, it is claimed,'tap a great lumber and mining country lying south of Hudson Kay, which is at present ��������� undeveloped, and bring fish to the Chicago and other western markets. When'completed, the road will be about 500 miles in -length. Philadelphia capital is at the back of the scheme." Australia Gold. C P. R. Chang-e of Time. The returns for the first half of the present year indicate that the gold yield of Australia will for 1900 but slightly exceed the output of 1899. Queensland and Western Australia have in the first six months of the year shown increases of rather over 11 and 'rather.under 7 per cent respectively,'on the results of the same period of i899. But in New South Wales a decrease of 1514 per cent is is noted, and in Victoria one of .nearly 7 per cent. There was also a slight decrease in New Zeland, but this will probably be made up by the returns of the remainder of the year. Tasmania ���������meanwhile shows a slight decline of the ���������������������������yield of its gold got in connection with copper mining. . The Fall assizes will open on Tuesday at Nelson. The Westminster fair is said to have been very successful. A fine stock of new wall paper at Cliffe's bookstore, Sandon. David Magee, of Lemon Creek, was killed Wednesday by a falling tree. Thirty men are at work on the wagon road ,to Silver mountain, from New Denver. The Tribune has the followingcourt're- port of a case of interest to Sandonites.: Daniel W. Henley, of Spokane,'"vflV the Reco Mining & Milling Company, Limited, of Sandon, promises to be one of the'most interesting cases on the docket. In this action plaintiff asserts that he purchased on November 5th, 1898, 3500 shares of Reco stock from L. E, Houck and L. Peterson, and on Jan- nary 16th, 1899, he also purchased 2500 shares from Houck and S. T; Arthur. Subsequent to the last deal plaintiff applied to the Reco Company to have the transfer of the shares -registered which was refused, the company denying the plaintiff had any title to the stock. Henely asks the court to declare him the'owner of the shares and that he' is entitled to have the transfers registered, a mandatory injunction directing the Keco Company to enter the transfers and $5000 damages for the wrongful refusal of the company to enter the stock. In its statement of defense the company claims that L. E. Houck and L. Pe erson were never the owners of Reco stock, or that if Houck was the owner, which is denied, he became the ' owner thereof by fraud. The fraud alleged is that Houck, Peterson and Arthur conspired to cheat J. M. Harris,, president of the Reco Company, in a card game in which Harris 1> st money to the face value of the shares. The stock was issued before the cheating became known, and then the Reco coin- pany.refused to acknowledge the loyalty of the transfer. A Strike on the Sunset. After Sunday, October 14th, the Imperial Limited service of the Canadian Pacific Railway will be withdrawn, and the winter time schedule will take effect. This will necessarily change the time of the arrival and departure of all trains over the entire system, and the new time table locally will be as follows: Trains leaving Nelson for Rossland will be as follows: Morning train, daily except Sundays, will leave at 8 o'clock, and returning will arrive at 11:25 a. in. The afternoon or evening train will be, daily, and will leave at 6:40 p. m. and J Colville Indian Reservation. Great interest is being taken in the opening of the Colville Indian Reservation, wTnoh the U. S. government 1 as announced will take place shortly.

There is much travel that way. The "Rev." Joseph Thatcher was in the city this week hunting up old acquaintances and shaking hands. He is located at the Hotel Halyooh. He was accompanied by Dr. Brett'. The Cosgrove Co. entertained two audiences on Thursday and Friday even- ings'With their 'musical specialties and moving pictures.' Everybody who went said it was a treat. The hall ' vas filled both nights. The celebrated trial of Harris vs. Ker- lin is to come up at the Nelson fall assizes next week. It would be well if definite steps were taken once for ali to see who does and who does not own the Sandon townsite. Tin horn gamblers have got to go in Nelson, and though many cannot see it that way, it would be "a good thing if they were driven out of Sandon, They bring no money to the place but often takeconsiderable away. J. C. Drewry, of Rossland, returned to the city on Tuesday morning from a run to Lardo. .While here he was notified by wire, Of a remarkable strike on the Sunset group adjoining the Whitewater and niuler bond to the Canadian Gold Fields of which Mr. Drewry is general manager. The wire was from W. H. Jeffrey, superintendent, and read : "Two feet of ore on east upraise of Sunset. Assays 753 to 1773 ounces." Such a showing equals anything ever discovered in the Kootenays and if the lead holds true, the Canadian Gold Fields will indeed have a bonanza. It is understood that a'drift will, be run from the Whitewater lo tap the new vein at a depth of 340 feet.���������Tribune. The uhapleau.

Allowing the feminine Smiths to '.be as numerous, the world has 14,000,- 000 living Smiths. Whether the number be as prodigious as this or not, there is no question but that it runs into the .millions. A family so numerous and .*o universally infiltered through every ���������caste and class commands at least tho ���������respect due recognized magnitude and ���������aggregated rower. Literally smith means smiter, i. e., ��������� O'no who smites, or hammers. And in told days when every, bit of metal, cop- 3>or, iron, silver, gold or brass, had to be pounded and hammered by mighty .strokes into armor, tools, plate, utensils and implements, there were need .of many smiths. These "smithers" ���������or smiths were not men of . brawn ���������alo.ne. ' They had to possess the ready ���������brai.h,and skill'to sharpen alike an im~ plejne'.it, repair an armor, or shoo a 'horse. Their's was an honest and lucrative trade, and every road, street and ihamlet 'had its smiths." Not only were there many smiths, but different branches.of smithery abounded, and ���������thus numerous compounds and derivi. tios of Smith came into existence. Among the^Q are SmilheT, Smithkins, Smithson, Arrasmith, Arrowsmith, ���������Goldsmith, Silversmith,1 Coppersmith, .Steolsmlth, Locksmith, Hammersmith, Hocksmith, Hockersmith, Drakesmith, Forcesmith, Smitham, Sexsmitn*, Camp- emith, Bowersmith, Worksmith, Watchsmith, Bakersinith, Wildsmith, Wintersmith, Hoftsmith, Kleinamith ���������and Smithdeal. Strangest of all these, .perhaps, Ls Few-smiths I Sometimes to distinguish several Smiths in one street or .hamlet, a Christian name was incorporated with the usual name.

The latest stories of a submarine boat, which is to blow opposing battle-ships out of the water ami revolutionize naval warfare, come from England, where Ihc authorities hitherto havu .exhibited much indifference on the subject. XLs is said the machine dives with facility, travels well under water, and is perfectly capable of attaching'a mine of 500 pounds of gun-cotton to the bottom of. tho largest iron-clad and getting oul of danger 'before the explosion which is to dissipate her enemy,'in unappreciablo particles. Tho boat further is able Lo discharge torpedoes above and below water, and is armed with quick-firing aud machine guns, with which she can give a good account of herself upon the surface. It is, noteworthy that nothing is said about either oi., Hie two vital qualifications, equilibrium and vjsjon; and, also thai, the vessel has not. yet been accepted or tested by the Admiralty. Her true value, tnorefore, is still problematical. Meanwhile the French profess to be satisfied completely with the behavior of tho Guslave Zede, tho Narval and -the Gym-note, and are preparing to construct a flotilla of forty of these travelling submarine torpedoes, ft does not appear that they are to be equipped for fighting above j water as well as below it.

It is difficult to imagine what these,columns have, been used for, unless us altars of a temple.'.' Several blocks of diorile, fourteen inches square, were scattered about, so it is evident that the edifice was-of more than ordinary importance . Tho ground for. hundreds, of yards was completely strewn with fragments of broken pottery, bin the brush and undergrowth was so dense that only a small part of the, locality was explored. Regarding these Guerrero ruins, there, is sufficient' evidence, to prove that the��������� countryv lias been inhabited by some millions of people. , What such a vast population could have subsisted on in this wild, . broken, up country on the hill summits and sidos of deep barrancas, is impussiblo to conceive, unless a great seismic disturbance has changed tho topography of the land.

'mm ������II e? There is an old German refrain that .runs- somewhat' as follows : " The paradise of earth Is fomnd on horseback." That morning it returned to me, why I know not. for 1 had heard no German for years. .Anyway, as lsay, it recurred to me as I walked along in tho spring sunshine, clad in faultless riding attire, toward a well-known riding stable, where I intended to procure a mount for a long. ride. It was still quite early and I found _t'iic groom! lazily pillowed, against the stable door whistling softly to himself. He glanced at my high boots, which reflected the morning sun, and smiled, while I explained my intention. I chose a, beautiful roan called Darling. " A horse that was as gentle as a lamb," pertinently added the groom. I i had intended to ride along tho drives, where-tho shade was thick arid the young ladies wandered up and down during iho,morning hours, but Barling held other views, and carried, the day with gentle persistence. What could I do with tho beast? And, after all, wha+ difference does it make where one rides soilong as one does ride! So we hastened to the outskirts of the town where the sun was hottest. That was Darling's choice. Darling, paused "before'the first, inn and absolutely refused to budge, lso to give myself a countenance, I ordered a glass of ale from the waiter who hurried out. and found it as poor as I had expected. " Wonderful what them beasts do know sir," he 'commented patting Darling's glossy-nock. "Now, this brio alius gets sugar vherc, and he knows it, sir, he do." So Darling m.unched his lump of sugar and then consented to trot along should soon outdistance her, but as we came rieck to neck, my mount slowed up, and trotted along, contentedly suiting himself to the other's pace. 1 knew tho young lady by sight, and'felt forced to bow. She nodded over Darling's neck, apparently absorbed in a saddle buckle, I heard them ��������� trot -off, and then, felt myself carried along at a furious puce, and| am instant later I landed beside Miss Van Deem en brem bless, "but: still in iny saddle.

I used my whip unsparingly, but to no purpose. Darling would notbudgo. In the meantime the rider appeared at the turning and greeted the young lady pleasantly enough, though he glanced at me. disapprovingly. ' i ''Pray introduce your companion," ho said, sharply. Miss Van Deemen turned purple and looked reproachfully at me. " I don't know tho gentleman," sho stammered. He happened to be riding in the same direction as I." "Purely accidental," 1 repeated, bowing, inwardly praying that the earth would opon and swallow me up., "Indeed!" said tho gentleman, and turned his back deliberately on me. " Permit me to accompany you, Miss Van Deemen," I heard as 1 bent low I but 1 am sure it is not intentional." j ".Nothing could be 'fanner from my thoughts," I assured her truthfully, " Then prove it by leaving us," she implored.

"We don't know each other," cried Miss Van Deemen; but out horses apparently do."

In infancy ho was a delicate child, but from four to- seven, ho scarcely passed a well day. At four years of age'he began to-complain of frequent headaches, which later became almost continuous,, and soon symptoms , of; general debility developed. ��������� His appetite was poor and he grew pale and emaciated.i and the least exertion caiised a severe palpitation and fluttering of the heart, and dizziness. At times there was considerable derangement of his stomach; a bluenoss of the lips and! a shortness of breath. Ho would often lie awake at night and rise in: tho morning haggard and unrefreshed. During his illness he was treated by tvvo doctors. Both differed in the diagnosis of his case.. One said it was catarrh of tha stomach, and while his treatment was persisted in there was no improvement. The second also attended him for some; time witih no better results. Some time after my attention was attracted by my aunt to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and about September, 1897, I procured the pills and he began taking them. Wo had long before come to the'conclusion he would be an invalid for'life, but" believihg it ,a duty I owed to my child to procure all means of relief, T was determined to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial. The good effects of tho first box was apparent, and five boxes were used* which were taken in about six months' time, when he was strong,and well, and could attend school, and play, and- frolic as other healthy boys do. As every symptom of his old trouble has vanished, I consider his cure complete. The pills have certainly done him a world of good, as nearly three years have sinco passed away and! he has not seen a sick day in that length of time.

I ' tlie Mining Review. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 111, 1900. THE THIRD I'ARTY. As announced last week the Labor party has placed Mr Chris. Foley, of Rossland, in the held for election in this Commons constituency, which makes the race one of many complications. As the Labor party is quite an elemenc in these parts, and Mr. Foley is said to be a good average man in point of character and ability, his nomination is entitled to full consideration on its merits. It is notorious, however, that third party candidates have never mot with favor or success in this country; and even though Mr. Foley Bhould be elected,we fail to see how it can accomplish for his friends the acme of their expectations. We know there are journals in the country that will shout themselves hoarse in commendation of his nomination���������in short, the gulchite is at it already���������but is not because any results serviceable to the party or country arc to re.-ult from the act. but merely to hoodwink the labor organizations, that they may bleed all the better for it. If labor in all its branches over Canada arrived at an understanding, after mature deliberation, altogether free from dema- gogism, as to what legislation in its interests was fair and ritfht; and placed candidates in thu field on the conclusion.-, they should receive the support of tin* masses. The trouble, however, is the labor bodies of Canada allow themselves to be led by agitators, who have no other object in sight than their own personal advancement, and disaster follows. There is not in Canada today a paper more disposed to advance labor interests, on well considered lines, than js this journal, and the public will see it in the end; but because we cannot endorse demagogues and their methods, we do not seem to stand with the labor unions in special favor. For instance, nothing does as much to injure the causo of the miners unions in these part.B as the escapade at the Payne mine last winter. All sensible miners now admit it,, but still the papers and the men who did not endorse it at the time fell under the ban. The late D'Alton . McCarthy and the late Peter Mitchell, abler'men than there are in the Labor party in B. C.. started third parties, aiid both came to grief, because they were unable to produce distinguishing features between their policies and I he old party lines. The Patrons of the eastern ���������provinces were a stronger organization than the Labor party of this country, they elected agitating demagogues to parliament, arid that ended their course in the country. The Labor party elected Mr. Puttie in Winnipeg; a few, months ago, and Laurier Buys he is satisfied with suchsupporters in the House, and that will end Mr. Puttie. ��������� However, we will proceed -with the criticism no further, but will deal with the new platform and the new candidate as requirements call for it. The new party goes in for "Free Compulsory Education," which we fully endorse as far as practicable���������when schools are within reach and the children's time can be spared. (2.) "A legal working day of eight hours" is all right if extended to all classes, and people are allowed under it the light of free action; (3.) "Governipent inspection of all industries" is commendable, if limited to features that concern the public, such as the safety of life and ijinb of employees. LICK.VSE AUTIIOKISI>G AN EXTUA-l'ItO.

Clause 6 of the platform has several good features and some very bad ones. Canada does not want, cheap labor; but il does want immigration of desirable classes. This pi'ivinre has room for five ur si's millions of people, tmd,Canada a.s ' a whole hits room for twenty-five times its present population to settle its waste lands and develop iis latent industries. It would be suicidal in in any way discourage the iinmitrraiion of desirable settlers even at a ncruetate cost to the country.

Few city people realize the many ' advantages of. the city bouse, with its full supply of hot and cold running water, over the average farmhouse to which pilgrims go in vain to get cool. There: is' nothing for severe, weariness like the intelligent use of the bathtub. Fill it two-thirds full of wuler as hot as you can stand. A good way t.o determine how hot'it should be is to pui ilni-elbow down :nto the water to ,��������� test it. Of course the fingers, or even '. the hand, form no teat at alb Pour a tablespoonful of ammonia into tho water. After about eight minutes soaking in this, spray or sponge the skin with cold water very quickly and ' rub dry with a rough towel. If,'sore, or lame rrom over exertion, walking or riding or bicycling, follow the bath with a mild massage of the muscles. with a little vaseline. Then take a half hour.nap and you , will be all right. .Many persons believe that the daily morning bath in water as cold as the hydrant affords, if taken-regularly, is of the utmost importance in maintaining a sound and vigorous constitution; It is a mistake to think that it is unsafe to Lake a cold bath when the body is heated. In cases of complete heat exhaustion the treatment now favoured is an ice packing. "When you are perspiring freely and are " warm all the way through;" you are in the very best shape to step inio water as cold as you can get. '������������������ The fear of " shock " is only a meaningless' tradition, as far as healthy persons are concerned. , Of course, a victim of heart disease will do well to keep,out of ice water, and very old and feeble folks must be careiul. It is said that, no case of inflammatory rheumatism has ever developed where, the patient for a series of years had taken a cold bath every day. 'The right method Ls to first wet the head and neck, and splash the shoulders. Then it is safe for almost every body to take (lie plunge. -In warm weather one can stay in the water a few minutes, but iu winter the best plan in to gelt out a������, soon as possible. " Colds" said to have been produced by cold baths are generally tho result of " standing arouud " in chilly air. The rubbing to restore the circulation is too much of a fad, and takes up too much,time. Evem if you dress before the skin is thoroughly dry no harm will bo done. Whatever moisture is left will very quickly evaporate. The main thing is to get into your clothes as soon as you can.

Crabapple Jelly.���������Put on the stove a quantity of crabapples to boil; when the juice is all boiled out put the apples in a coarse towel to drain. Then fox one cup of juice, take one cup of sugar until the juice is all used ; put on the stove and boiJ for fifteen minutes. While boiling put in four geranium leaves for evory two quarts of juice and then your jelly is ready to can. Do not boil more than fifteen minutes, and' take'out the leaves before putting in the glasses Plum Butter.���������Wild and sour plums make a good plum butter. Slew till very soft, rub through a colander, and to each quart add three cups of sugar and a teaspoojifuI of salt. Cook two hours, watching and.stirring to prevent burning.1 Add a gill of vinegar, an inch piece of ginger root, half a teaspoonful each of ground cloves and allspice and a teaspoonful of cinnamon, boil five minutes longer and put up in cans. Dried plums are nice for puddings. Halve and pit them, sprinkle with .granulated'-.sugar.' and dry in the oven. When wanted, soak over night in water,, then simmer gently till tender.

An odd ��������� wood for ' use in domestic fires is lignumvitae which is used like driftwood and wreckage out of salt water in open fireplaces and in grates, for the: sake of the ��������� vitrious colored flames it produces in burning. The lig- niumvitae thus used is the refuse of mills working this wood, pieces not big enoiugh or not suited for manufacture. Asa firewood lignumvitae is a luxury, selling at about $20 a ton. It is commonly sold in comparatively small lots or by tho barrel. PERSONAL. IiiK-rcstliiK He ii* 4.'niicr.rniu; , Their Kslnlc*. Xolilc* :in<! KNEW HER MAN. An old Irish woman, who kept a fruit stall, had some watermelons given to her; which she 'exposed for sale. A smart Yankee, wishing to "take a rise " out of the old lady, took up one: of the melons and said : " These are .small apples you grow over here, lii America we have them twice the sizi." The woman slowly removed the pipe she was smoking from between, her lips, and coolly surveyed her inquirer from head to foot for a second or twb, Then, in a tone, of pity, she exclaimed: " Be ,'jabers, sorr, you must be a strangeir in Ireland, and know very little about the fruit av our coun- thry, whin you cau't tell apples from the forfeited Douglas estates, gooseberries I" HINTS FOE, HOUSEKEEPERS.

Mr. .Toseph Geroux, 22 Metcalf street, Ottawa; Out., writes:���������"I was ner- ous, had headache and brain fag. i was restless at night, and could not sleep. Mv appetite was poor, and I suffered from nervous dyspepsia. Little business cares worried and irritated me. After having used Dr. Chase's Nerve, Food for about two months, I can frankly say that I feel like a new man. "My appetite is good, I rest and sleep well, and this treatment has strengthened'' me wonderfully. Dr. Chase's Nerve Food Pills are certainly the -best lover used, and I say so because Iwant to give full credit where it is due." Mrs. E. McLaughlin. 95 Parliament street.

She could scarcely drag herself about the house, and,her nerves were. completely unstrung. She 'could not sleep for more than half an hour at a'time without starting ���������up: and .crying out in excitement. " As she was growing weaker and weaker,! became alarmed, and obtained a box of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food.

The name was ori-, ginally Pauncefort, derived from tho French "Pensesfori.* Lord Paunse- fote, in spite of his.ago, is a vigorous and enthusiastic cj-clist. The Marquess of Bute, whoso fifty- third birthday occurred a few days ago,,;has held' bis title since he was six months old.

A romance of the peerage is recalled by the recent birthday of tho .younger Karl Poulett. He is������the , only, son of the late Earl by his third ; wife. The elder Earl Poulett, the claimant, is also a son of the earl by his first wife, and the story of his career as Viscount Hinton, the organ- grinder, is well known. The Poulett peerage^' pronounced Paulett, dates .firom 1627, and the estate of 11,000 acres Is said to bring in 'an income of ������20,000 a year. Notwithstanding tiiis, however, the late peer went through tho Bankruptcy Court. The'Duke of Buccleuchi owns nearly 500,000 acres of land and seven "palatial mansions, while'his revenue amounts to nearly ������200,000 a year. In 1455 one of the Duke's ancestors, Sir Walter Scott, not the novelist, of course,, fought for King James II. against tho Douglases, and as a reward received a very large share of This was the beignning of the Buccleuch luck. In the way, of titles, the family possesses twelve, viz., two dukedoms, one marquisate, four earldoms, one viscounty, and four" baronies. It Is not generally known that the United. States possesses a real live pewr���������all its vory own! Lord Fairfax, however,1 is practically an American citizen. The sixth baron went across the Atlantic in the time of George , Washington, whose friend ha was, and all his descendants have lived and married in the Republic.
