NEED OF SUCH WORK.

II feel" said he, that there is a
need for an institutional church in
this part of the city and this, l hope, is
only the first step in a great work
which l feel should be accomplished
here.
There are so many who did not have
the advantage of an education in their
early years and so many more who did
not realize when they went to school
the importance of an education, that
such an institution as we propose to
conduct here is almost a necessity"

to the smelter, and If 1t Is found that
its treatment is more profitable by
this method it will be continued.

Louisville, KY, Oct. 23.-During
performance at the Masonic Temple
theater the pollscope used in showing
pictures between the acts exploded. A
stampede followed, in which five per,
sons were seriously hurt and fifteen or
twenty others more or less injured,
The place was crowded at the time
but 1T was emptied in a few moments.
1t was about $3.50 o'clock i'm the after.
noon, Just after the first act of Ten,
nessees Partner" The poliscope pic
lures, which were shown between the
acts, had just started. The machine
was not working well. and the audience
became restless from the DELAY and the
kissing and suffering Of the machine.
The operator tried to manipulate it and
then threw the light on the screen
when suddenly there was a SUFFERING
and white flash, and a lurid tongue of
fire leaped out and crawled around the
woodwork surrounding the machine
While the smell of fire greeted those
near, In a moment the audience was
panic stricken and someone said.

The theater was packed. With one
impulse the audience arose and began
a mad scramble for the stairway
Screaming and struggling men, wo
men and children fought their way to
ward the front stairway Many occu
pants of the gallery leaped over the
railing into the struggling mass OF
humanity below. Finally the hall was
cleared and the police, who had beer
called, found over score of injured
persons lying on the floor of the thea
ter. They were taken in ambulances
to hospitals and their homes.

MINING NOTES.

There is a story in Wallace, Idaho,
that the Hercules mine has been bond
ed to Finch & Campbell of Spokane
for 100000.
Five tons of ore sampled at the Ia
coma smel,er, taken from the famous
Apache claim in Nespelim camp, ran
over $500 to the ton.
The Northern Star company, of
which w. H. Plummer of Spokane is
manager, expects to erect a five stamp
mill upon its property near the Dixie
Queen in Dixie camp, Idaho.
The Hercules, at Wallace, Idaho, has
shipped its third carload of ore. The
owners decline to say what the sampler
returns of the first two carloads were.
but say thar it exceeded in value any
two carloads of ore ever shipped from
the Occur d'Alenes.
The largest mining district in the en-
tire south half of the Colville reserya-
ton is the noted Pierre Lake district.
Clustered around Pierre Lake and To-
Gated within a short distance, are
many promising prospects, the most of
which are now being worked.
Messrs. Steel, Nicely G Stillwell have
struck some very fine ore on the Com
modore, in Nespelim camp, assaying
$23 per ton in silver, copper and gold,
at depth of ten feet. The Commo-
dore is very promising claim, with
prospects of making a mine.
Joseph Frethey and James Davey,
the two Butte drillers, who won at the
Spokane drilling contest several weeks
ago have decided to enter the big Lead
vile tournament. 1t Is expected that
several other Montana teams will enter
also. but they have not yet decided def
initely.

BRITISH COLUMBIA.

Work has commenced on the smelter
for The Sullivan mine at Marysyille, b.
c., and it is expected that it will be
completed and in operation by March l..
An important strike has been made
at the head of Springer creek, SLOGAN
district, giving promise OF adding an
other rich mine 20 that portion of the
camp. The discovery was made ON the
Monterey group, situated to the east Of
the Hampton claim, The group con-
sists of the Monterey, Oregon and Ban
croft claims, and is owned by n. F..
Mcknight, r. Milloy and Leo Doiron
The tunnel on the Tammany group
near Grand Forks, in the Burnt Basin,
has crosscut blind ledge nine feet
wide. The ore is free milling, and
seems to be of good grade. The tun-
nel which is 1876 feet, will be extend
ed to crosscut the main ledge, which is
visible on the surface. Development
work is in charge of Bert Rea The
Tammany group is owned by Saginaw
(Mich.) men.
The plan which has been under con-
sideration by James rBeen for the cree
tion of smelter in the Boundary coun-
try has been brought to an end The
smelter will not be built. Mr.. Breen.
however, is going ahead with plans for
building a smelter. He and David
Fotheringham and Hermann Bellnger,
superintendent of the Heinze smelters
at Butte, have completed plans for
building a smelter on the east coas. of
Vancouver island, forty miles north of
Victoria, B. C. 1t will have an initial
capacity of about 800 tons per day. Two
stacks will be constructed at the STAR
Plans will be made for increasing the
capacity as fast as ore can be secured.
Hermann Bellinger will leave the
Heinze smelters at Butte to accept the
supervision of the metallurgical de-
partment. Messrs. Breen, Fothering-
ham and Bellinger will furnish the
funds for the enterprise. Work will be
commenced at once.
1t is highly probable that Bernard
Mcdonald will soon retire from the
management of the LIE Roi mine at
Rossland. 1t is practically settled that
Bella Kadish will retire from the man
agement of the lie Roi smelter at
Northport. These two developments
are the most important results of the
recent visit which was made to Ross
land by Henry Bratnober, who ranks
among the larger shareholders in the
LIE Roi company. 1t is believed that
the retirement of Messrs. Macdonald
and Kadish will simplify the strike sit
uation greatly. The chief antagonism
of the striking miners and smeltermen
is conferred personally against Mr.. Nc
Donald, with less degree bestowed
upon Mr.. Kadish. 1t has been conceded
by the strikers from the start that il
Mr.. Macdonald were to withdraw from
the management of the mine the
chances of settling the trouble would
be doubled.

LARGE FIRE AT SYDNEY; c. B.
Principal business Portion of the
Town Burned.

Town burned.
Halifax, N. s., Oct. 21.-The pros.
porous and thriving town of Sydney.
cape Breton. was almost swept out OF
existence by fierce CONFEDERATION. The
flames. which were famed by a As
mile gale, swept through the principal
business portion of the town, causing
ruin and devastation. Four blocks of
the finest business buildings are in
ashes.
The firemen were greatly handicap
ped at the outset by the poor SUNNY
OF water. The fire started in three
story frame building on Charlotte
street occupied by A. D. Giles and
Gordon & Keith. When the flremen
arrived on the scene the building was
burning fiercely and the wind was
blowing the flames over the tops Of
the adjoining buildings. In a very
short time the fire spread to the build.
lngs occupied by Carr, jeweler:
blanchard, Bentley & Co.. and the
Maritime Premium company. Then it
spread to some small buildings on the
opposite side of the street and jumped
to the large department store of
Prowse Bros. & Clowell, which was
soon doomed. The whole town was
then threatened.
Assistance was sent for and the fire
departments Of North Sydney and
Glace Bay responded, and on arrival
got quickly to work, but every effort
to stop the flames was of no avail The
fire swept from Charlotte to Prince
streets, and as far south as George
street, carrying everything before it.
Half an hour after the fire started one
quarter of the business portion of the
town was in flames.
The towns water supply now gave
out, and the engines had to be sent
to the harbor to pump water.
At 4:30 two of the business blocks
were destroyed and the fire spread to
Bentick street, and half an hour later
Bruce, George, Bentick and Charlotte
streets were mass of fire. The
miners resorted to the use of dyna-
mite and several buildings were blown
up with but little effect, as the strong
wind carried the burning embers to
other buildings.
The fine building belonging to the
Union bank Of Halifax and the Baptist
and Presbyterian churches were soon
destroyed
At Z o'clock the fire had reached the
east end of Charlotte street, and here
its progress was stayed.
The blocks on Wentworth, Prince
and Pitts streets and half a block on
George street were destroyed.
The fire is supposed to have been
started by the bursting Of an oil stove.
It is impossible to estimate the loss
ct present, but it is roughly placed at
between 100000 and 100000.
The flames were under control at 10
o'clock
