Dr. ]. F. Reddy. OF Spokane. was in the
city asst evening. DIR. Reddy is one OF
the wen known mining operators Of Spo-
kane. II was Or. Reidy who purchased
ard Incorporated the famous Deer Park
mine. which promises 10 be the great
bonanza mine % Tran creek Asked as
10 developments IN Kootenay by q repre-
sentative OF the Post-TnteAigencer DR..
Reddy remarked;
"A fraction Of the wonders OF the
Kootenay has not yet been told. The de-
velopments at Rossland and in the SLOGAN
are SURPRISING the fondest expectations
OF the mining operators OF Spokane.
''In the SLOGAN. mines like the Reco.
the Idaho. the Slocan Star. the Wonder
ful the Washington and a multitude of
others. bid fair to beat all records as
rich silver producing mines.
There is little doubt thar the gold de-
posits of the Ross.and district are so vast
that Ross.and and Trail will in few
years become the richest gold district of
the world. while 10 the west. in the Bound
airy and Colville country, veins OF gold and
copper ere are being developed that bid
fair 10 surpass all ever yet seen on this
continent
This is a bold statement, but / do know
that the German emperor has recently or
dered an investigation of these copper
mines. and he was so astonished by the
results that ne summoned 10 Germany the
German consul at Tacoma TO explain the
possibilities of this northern country.
''In my Judgment. more regulations and
more fortunes VII be made in the Koote-
nay country within the next five years
than in any other land or cline in the
worlds history
What place win benefit most by the
great discoveries In the Kootenay?'
Spokane first and before al others.
Spokane discovered developed. and TO
use a slang phrase. went broke on the
Kootenay, and % per cent. OF the mines
Of that section are still owned in Spokane.
II is true Spokane people are selling
mines. But such sales enables Spokane
people TO buy other prospects and make
other mines. A Spokane combination
bought the War Eagle group for $4,000.
They paid S175,eo0 in dividends. and they
are now selling the War Eagle alone for
$50 600.
81 bought the Deer Park seven months
ago for less than $4,000. and the Deer
Park Company is being now importuned
TO sell for $500 900. IT is practically the
same all over the camp In the Koote-
nay the mines are phenomenally numer-
Gus and equally rich

THE HIDDEN TREASURE.
Much Development Accomplished
Last Year.

The amount of development work on the
Hidden Treasure mine at Squaw creek
proved to be much greater than was stated
in the New Years edition of the Post-In-
te.ligencer. The upper tunnel has been run
200 feet with maximum depth Of 100 feet
and has cut three ore chuies, SIS, IS and q
feet, and is now in the fourth. which shows
thirteen inches OF high grade ore. The
other tunnel. fifty feet below. is in ff5 feet
and shows good concentrating ore all the
way II Is now fin the main ore chute, cut
by the upper tunnel, with &c inches Of high
grade ore, this being an evidence that the
ledge IS widening tramway with wooden
rails has been buLt down the mountain 10
the end of the road and seven tons OF $40
ore have been shipped, while 100 tons of $50
ore remains on the dump.
Work was suspended for the winter in
November, but win be resumed in March.
The. lower tunnel viii be extended 500 feet,
giving a depth OF 400 feet under the sum-

p. A. O'Farrell. the well-known mining
operator and journalist, was in Seattle last
evening on his way 10 Victoria. re-
porter OF the Post-Inte.ligencer met him
at the Rainier-Grand. and in reply 10 sew
eral questions he said:
Mining is booming in the Spokane
country. Capitalists and experts from all
quarters Of the globe are crowdIng thither.
and | look for a period Of marvellous &C
tivity. / cannot give you an idea of the
development daily taking place. Suffice
Il TO say the kootenay is far surprising
the widest expectations of the men who
a few years ago staked their al on the
future of the kootenay.
THE War Eagle is sold to Eastern
Canadians Other sales win surely follow.
but London is now on the warpath for
Kootensy mines, and when London enters
the ring all others must take a back seat.
Rossland and SLOGAN will have a boom
next year which win astonish the United
States and Europe"

an old man at EIlinwood whose name

The Label is Lost.

The greatest labor struggle for
living wages in the history of the
country is now on. 1t is estimated
that 375, 900 coal miners and 10000
iron and steel workers will work ia
unison for the betterment of their
condition; and that the strike will
directly affect at least 100000 PEG.
pie. This condition of affairs appears
rather early on the horoscope of the
Ha ana Mckinley administration. In
stead of a bread cry of such enormous
proportions ringing through our land,
we expected to hear only the merry
clanking of the well filled dinner pail,
and to see the working man engulfed
in the huge waves of prosperity that
were to sweep our country from ocean
to ocean and from the lakes to the
gulf, with card bearing the inscrip.
ton &c. D. P" tackled on. No
doubt both the card and the inscripr
ton are still held in vivid remem-
brance by coed many of our voters.
but they seem to have failed to find
any prosperity waves connected with
'it.-Strong City Derrick.

You should not Judge the railroad

grabbing every car of coal in sight,
and leaving the sowners helpless, one
cannot help thinking of the poor
devils in prison for taking coal in
dead winter from the cars standing
on sidetracks. Of course it is wrong

roads to help themselves. While the

PESTS IN CONVERSATION,
The Bouncer. the Booster and the
Forestalle=.

fOreStalieS-
Here are some things that Ros-
sitter johnson said at a meeting OF
the American Society for the Inn
provement of Speech. about the art
of conversation:
Conversation has many different
meanings Sometimes it means
that every one in the room is talk
ing at once while the salad goes
around; sometimes it means that
one old gentleman with long white
hair and countenance of great
oenevolence is speaking while 10
persons listen with rapt attention
to his ideas Of philosophy. Con-
versation Invariably requires a
talker and a listener, and l lay it
down as a general proposition that
not only should all takers have
something to say, but they should
know how to say it. and they should
be very careful not to oversay it. Of
course, you all know about the talk
ers who 60 on and on forever like
the brook. The trouble with some
takers is that they acquire pretty
good style and they want to exhibit
it They are like the boy who
graduates from a business college,
and who thinks he can go into prac-
teal business without any further
capital
There are learned men and
brilliant students who cannot talk
well because they have not acquired
the art of editing their conversation.
Listeners should know how to
listen, but am sorry to say that a
great many don't. Of the latter
there are three classes which are
particularly pernicious. They ARE:
% The bouncer; (2) the booster; 81
the forestaller. The bouncer may
be described as the man who bursts
suddenly into a room in which there
are several persons and begins to
talk without reference to what is ge-
ing on. The booster is he who as
sumes that you do not know just
what you are going to say, and that
it is his duty to supply the proper
words. The fores taller has many
traits in common with his brother,
the booster He assumes after he
has heard you say three words that
he knows all the rest of the sem
tence, and he proceeds forthwith to
say it for you He is like the little
dog who runs ahead of his mates
and turns every corner on the as
sumption that it is the right one,
and that he has guessed accurately
the direction his master will take
The true art of conversation in
its highest aspect consists, like
writing history, in telling the truth,
and telling it imaginatively. The
best talker is an imaginative talker
1t is he whose copversation delights
you. Concerning rapid converse
ton, ! would say that every witty
repartee consists in either denying
premise you are expected to grant
or in granting a premise you were
expected to deny, st Louis Globe
