BRITISH COLUMBIA.

BRITISH tOiAnBit-
The Consolidated Cariboo Hydraulic
Mining Company, Limited, of the Carl
boo district. British Columbia, on Oct
/, completed the second cleanup of the
season. and have shipped the result
thereof in one large ingot of solid gold
$154,765. This is the product of 6S
days washing, and is the largest ingot
ever shipped east from an hydraulic
mine. This brings the product of the
mine for the season so far up to over
$500, 900.
The general revival of activity in
mining circles which has been a fea-
ture of the present year has affected
the Falls Creek camp in common with
the other. sections of the Nelson dist
riot More work has been done on the
creek during the summer just closing
than at any one season for several
years.
From October oath to the end of the
month $4,000 pound of ore was ship
ped over the Kaslo & SLOGAN railway to
this port, making the total for the
month 3,S9S,740 pounds or little over
1949 tons. The Whitewater was the
principal shipper, leading the list with
675 tons. The Payne ships both ways,
part of it's ore only coming through
this port, and the remainder going via
Nakusup.
Hereafter the lie Roi ore will be
crushed in Rossland, making it much
more convenient for the smelter at this
place and at the same time increase the
number of tons smelted each day. The
machinery for the refinery has been or
dered for some time, but it was hardly
expected that it would be put in place
this winter, as the smelter management
has had its hands full in making the
additional Improvements to the smelt-
er.
At a meeting in Windsor Hall, Mon
treal. last week, Hon. Mr.. Fielding an
nounced that arrangements had been
arrived at by which a branch of the roy
al mint of Great Britain would be es-
tablished in Canada, so that gold may
be brought from the mines, assayed at
offices there, disposed of at full value
and coined into Canadian money, and
what is not required in Canadian cur
rency may be coined into British SOW
ereigns.
The True Blue Copper mine situated
about three miles from Kaslo, has been
bonded by ]. c. Drewry, of Rossland, a
prominent capitalist and mining pro-
moter. The purchase price is not given
but it is said to be large sum. The
property consists of three claims-the
True Blue. Peacock and Copper Queen.
1t was bonded about year ago by the
Hall Mines company for $65,000, and
they expended from 100000 to $4,000
in developing it, but were forced to re-
linquish the bond at the time of the
difficulties last summer.
The directors of the British Ameri-
ca Corporation, lie Roi and its associ-
ated companies. are satisfied with the
mining developments on their proper
ties. There will be no departure from
the vigorous policy pursued by these
companies during the past year. The
mining operations are to be conducted
with view to present and future econ
omy of production. Such were the terse
aud vigorous sentences with Manager
Bernard Macdonald of the various B.
A. c. properties, summed up the gener-
al situation on being interviewed by a
representative of the Rossland Miner
on his return from London.

Il PROSPECTIVE FEE.

The oldest fee I ever received, said
the we'll known clergyman, with a
reminiscent smile. was given me by a
young man number of years ago.
Early one evening | received call at
my home from a young couple who
desired me to marry them Their
dress and department. denoted that
they were from the country. In fact
they told me that they were and that
they had come to the city to be mar
ried in style. told them to stand up
and soon pronounced them one.
There was an awkward pause after
the ceremony, during which the groom
shifted uneasily from one foot to the
other. Finally, after a violent effort
to clear his throat, he said:
I suppose this yere thing costs
something?
It is usually customary to give the
minister fee, said I, smiling.
WAL, how much is it? he asked
anxiously.
Anything you may please, answer
ed.
Than I'll tell We what I'll do, he
said, staightening up. I've jes' got
money enough to git US home. But
me an Mandy are thinking of going
into the chicken business, an We'll
send We a chicken.
That will be perfectly satisfactory,
I answered, trying hard not to laugh.
Send it to me any time for my Sunday
dinner, and I shall be more than
pleased.
But, say, he burst out, amt got it
yet. Mandy's aunt she was given
settin of eggs the other day, and she
said that if she could borrow settin
hen somewhere an had good luck she
would give us couple of chickens to
