slightly. Then, an outgoing car APP
preaching, they boarded it, went
through the passengers, gave an order
to both cars to proceed on their way,
and disappeared in the darkness.
Accounts differ as to how many ban
dts there were. Those on the first car
saw but three; the conductor on the
second car, a cool headed man, is posi-
tive he saw five. All of them were
masked. Some of them had one gun
while those who stood guard at the cal
doors while the men with one CUR

feature; therefore there will be one de-

BIG CAVE DISCOVERED.
Eighty Miles Due North of Spokane
in Metaline District.

With walls and ceilings sparkling
with the brilliancy of diamonds, with
huge rooms, wide passage WAYS. dark
and mysterious places, while here and
there flashes a stream or sparkles
pool of water, a wonderful cave has
been discovered about so miles almost
due north of Spokane.
Reports state that it has been pene-
trated about 5000 feet or more than
half a mile, but still the explorers have
been unable to find the end and how
much further it does extend or what
new wonders it contains still further
back is to be determined by later
search.
Already two large compartments
each about 800 feet square have been
found, connected by a wide passage
way. The cave is said to be in a gran
lite formation, which, if correct, would
make the existence Of such a huge
cavity appear all the more remarkable.

To Clean Ruua Mt Home.

Buy a cake of carpet soap, take
piece of clean flannel, some tepid wa
ter and several dry busters. Lay the
rug on a big table or a boarded floor.
Soap the flannel with the carpet soap
and rub the surface, then wipe off the
soap, and rub dry with the busters.
Do only a portion at once, for if left
wet the cOlors will run. If plenty Of
elbow grease be used and not much
water, the effect on either rugs or car
pets is splendid.

BRITISH COLUMBIA MINES.

Last week the B. G. mine,i in Summit
camp, shipped it's last ore for the
present and the Orc Denoro, which re-
Gently resumed shipping after three
years idleness, is gradually increasing
the output of ore.
Frank Holton, representing Montreal
and Boston capital, was in Kaslo re-
Gently with A. Hamilton and p H. Muir
ply, negotiating for the Lucky Jack
group of mining claims on Poplar
creek. The price offered is $4,000,
One-third cash. 1t is understood that
one of the four partners is holding out
for $150,000.
The annual meeting of the Rambler
CaribOO Mining company was held in
KaslO last week. 1t was an enthusiast
tic gathering of those interested. The
managers report was satisfactory in
respect to present conditions at the
mines. The last two months ship
ments were particularly encouraging,
over $4,000 worth of ore having been
sent to the smelter. The benefit from
the lead bonus will run from 800 to
$4,000 per month. Zinc products will
be held for better market conditions.
Marked activity is being displayed in
the west end of the Rossland camp.
At the White Bear mine a grading
crew is at work on the spur from the
Spokane Falls & Northern main line to
the White Bear ore bins, while con.
struction is being actively pushed on
the new compressor building and as
say office. The lie Roi No. 2 concen
TRAITOR is being constructed in a series
of attached buildings, five in number
and all but the first or upper section
are complete so far as the buildings
are concerned. At the I. X. L. mine
development and stopping work is stead
lily under way. One lot of 40 tons Of
ore has been shipped to the Northporr
smelter.
R. Roscoe Leslie has resigned the
superintendency of the lie Roi mine
to which he was appointed a year age
by John H. Mackenzie. He is sue
ceeded by Robert H. Anderson, presen
manager of the B. c. and Orc DenorC
mines at Summit camp. The change
takes effect September 1.
Predictions that the lie Roi compan,
of Rossland must be reorganized ar,
freely made in London. The stock ha
been slumping alarmingly since tn
publication of Manager S. F. Parrish

The 95 shares are now down t
&1 1-16, as against &91a, which wa
the prevailing price this time tw

John Y. Cole, a well known Rosslan
mining man, claims to have made a
exceptionally lucky strike in the Pol
