Capital for Mining

capital Tor Mining.
G. F. Venosta a mining broker of
Fort Steele, B. c., who has Just re-
turned from England. and is en- route
nome, gives the following account Of
his trip:
He found the English people all very
ready to invest money in British Co
Iumbla, and more especially East KoO-
tena1, on account Of the fact of the
Crows Nest railroad going through
this year. He claims to be responsible
for about $780, brought from Eng
land to East Kootenai this year. In
New York and Chicago he made many
1rlends and was very successful In
securing people with capital to go out
The town of Fort Steele is situated
on the Kootenai river, and has wonder
1ul mineral resources all around it,
Ever since 1860 it has been famous for
placers and now large quartz lodges
OF all free milling gold have been found
on Perry creek, and nice little town
has sprung up there.
North are large copper and silver
deposits. On Wild Horse, to the east
there are two large placer companies
at work, each paying good dividends.
Also nice group of quartz claims
called THE Dardanelles," also free
milling gold, which runs very high
South again are large copper deposits.
The North Star mine is now well
known everywhere, and expects to ship
about 1000 tons of ore this summer.
The indications are that a large rush
of people will take place this year to
the East KOOtenai country.

Two FEET FROM DANGER.
River Inst Night Was at the Nine
Foot Mark.

The river continued on it's upward
climb yesterday and the total raise
was nearly a foot during the proceed
ing twenty four hours. The guage at
the foot of Sibley street at the Diamond
10 line docks read go feet at o'clock
last evening and rivermen stated that
the water was still coming up. The
total rise in the last ten days has been
six feet.
The danger line will be closely crowd
cd, If the river rises a couple of feet
more, as the waters are already tapping
the outer edges Of the fats on the
West side. However there has been
no alarm or discomfort as yet.
At the foot of Jackson and Sibley
streets the river stretches out to a
considerable width, while a glance
down the river from the tall office
buildings affords a pretty sight. The
ice is fast crumbling and is going down
the river in a heavy and slushy con-
dition. Below Sibley street and for a
long way down under the sandstone
bluffs, the river appeared yesterday TO
be practically free of ice.

agreement between Democrats, Silver

ate looking to coalition was reached
at meeting of representatives of
those parties held in Senator German s
committee room at the capitol The
agreement had its origin in the effort
to reorganize the senate committees,
but it is destined apparently to reach
far beyond this situation, and in fact to
the future proceedings Of the senate on
all matters, if not to the extent of
shaping party policies throughout the

ATHENS, April 12.-Dispatches re-
ceived here from Larissa, give details
of the invasion of Macedonia by force
of irregular Greek troops. Three thou
sand men, it is announced, crossed the
frontier on Wednesday, the day after
the celebration of the anniversary OF
the declaration of Greek independence
in 1921 Tuesday, the day Of the cele-
bration, was looked upon as likely to
be the day the Greeks would select for
opening hostilities, but Tuesday, in
Greece, is considered an unlucky day
upon which to embark upon any under
taking of importance, and so the cross
ing of the frontier was postponed until
Wednesday. The Greeks expedition
ary force is commanded by ex-officers
and ex.noncommissioned officers Of the
regular army of Greece, and includes
the band of Italian volunteers COM
manded by Colonel Cipriani
They Are weil Armed.
The so-called insurgents are all well
armed, and have been equipped at the
expense Of the Ethnike Hetairia, the
famous and powerful Gree% secret So
ciety, which has been the root and
branch of the present crisis, practi-
cally controlling the country. The
members of the exploitation all wear
the badge of the Ethnike Hetairia, and
were given an enthusiastic send-off by
the Thesalonians and Greek troops.
The latter, it is almost unnecessary TO
add, made no attempt to prevent the
departure of the expedition, and there.
fore it cannot be claimed that the
movement was unknown to the
Greek authorities. Two Greek
] flags were solemnly entrusted
to the charge of the insurgents, and
good arrangements have been made for
forwarding food and other supplies to
the expeditionary force. The news of
the invasion has caused the most in.
tense excitement here.
