It's a bargain" said Archie and he
paid the price.
The touch down was made and
swish! went Archie's cane for the hat.
But John ducked neatly, broke ground
and sought neutral corner. He saved
his sky piece. Another touch down
and swish! the cane again descended
through the air in the direction of the
silk hat. John caught the blow with
his right, tented and spared for wind.
The outcome was that Archie didn t
smash the hat. That was several years

Some people are prophesying that
because the Black Queen and the Inez
mines are not working the camp will
go to the demnition bow-wows the COM
ing winter. While their dOrmancy is
hard on a few OF us residents we do not
anticipate an idle camp by any means;
there may not be as many families in
town, and for that reason fewer social
functions, yet we believe there will be
as many men on outside properties as
is usual during the winter season. In
a measure, the removal of some fami-
lies is attributable to the supineness Of
the school board in not hiring teachers
to open the schools promptly. It is a
curious idea that teachers must come
from far away places when we have
plenty of deserving and capable talent
nearer home. No wonder those having
children to educate move to points hav-
ing superior advantages. But women
and children are not essential in work.
ing mines, although they are Of great
help and real comfort to those who do,
and are always pleasing acquisitions,
therefore they do not remove the work.
ing element entirely. We know Of
several parties from the outside who
contemplate working their claims dur
ing the winter, while others have taken
leases which will occupy their time. 1t
Is known fact that o greater tonnage
OF ore was marketed during the season
than heretofore, yet the first named
mine contributed very little, and the
latter none. There are just as good
mines awaiting to be opened out as
those already known to be rich, and
they are slowly but surely coming to
the front.
