Let Erin Remember.

Let Erin RENE mber.
Let Erin remember the days Of old,
Ere her faithless sons betrayal her;
When Malachi wore the collar of gold
Which he won from her proud invader;
When her kings with standard of green
unfurld
Led the Red Branch Knights to dan
ger;
Ere the emerald gem of the western
world
Was set in the crown Of q stranger.
On Lough Neagh's bank as the fisherman
strays,
When the clear cold eve's declining,
He sees the round towers of other days
In the wave beneath him shining!
Thus shall memory often. In dreams
sublime,
Catch a glimpse of the days that are
over,
Thus, signing, look through the waves
For the long-faded glories they cover!

DEAFNESS cANNor BE CURED

By local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear. There Is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by eonstitu-
tionsl remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustaehian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed YOU have a rumbling sound or impeE-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the infamma-
tion can be taken out and this Tube restored "a
its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever: nine eases out OF ten are caused by
catarrh, which IS nothing but an inhamed
condition OF the mucous surfaces.

BRITISH COLUMBIA MINES.

The latest news from Poplar creek
was brought to Keslo from Lardo by
Archie Campbell and Harry Malonhe,
who came down for provisions. Ma
lonhe says: "All the ground surround
ing the Gilbert & Marquis property has
been staked for miles. Several women
have secured good locations.
pete Kelly Of Kaslo secured choice
claims on both sides of the Gold Park
group.
Archie Campbell has a quantity of
ore with him that was counted by
good judges of gold ores as valuable.
MANY narrow escapes were expert
enced by those who went in on ac-
count Of high water, the currents of
streams being very swift, the bridges
are all out and high water prevents
repairs to the railway and roadbed."
Excitement at Lardo is at fever heat
and men are sleeping in barns and
chicken houses. The weather is very
disagreeable and many of those who
are camping out in the hills are bound
to suffer, being poorly equipped for
bad weather.
F. Augustus Heinze has not bought
the Crofton smelter. Bellinger &
Breen, the Spokane owners, are ar
ranging for one for the smelter from
the Lenora mine on Mount Sicker,
Vancouver island. That big property
got into financial difficulties months
ago. Now Bellinger & Breen will take
over the management of the property,
with Nicholas Treagar, formerly man
ager of the lie Roi at Rossland, in
charge. After paying mining and
smelling charges the profits from the
ores are to go to the mortgages.
When they are paid off the other cred
itors will get their turn and then the
mine will revert to the original com
pany. AS it is a rich property this will
not be a lengthy process.
Mr.. Heinze has secured a larger hold
of the Britannia mine on Howe sound
which is a big copper property. 1t is
the intention shortly to reopen 1t and
the ore will be shipped to the Croftor
smelter until the company erects its
own plant.
The Jumbo mine at Rossland will
commence shipment forthwith to the
Northport smelter. The Spitzee re
sumes underground operations early
next week. About 20 men will be EN-
ployed on the start.

ARMY OF CATERPILLARS.
A Solid Column Invade Walla WaIIa
Valley.

Walla Walla, Wash, June 2S.-A
vast horde of a species of caterpillar,
probably the genuine army worm, is
marching across Walla Walla valley.
the vanguard of the host being tonight
not over three miles northeast of this
city. The worms appear to be march
ing in a solid column between 100 and
200 yards wide and two or three miles
long.
AS the present trend of the horde
is eastward, the worms will miss Walla
Walla.
No effect is noticeable on the crops
so far, though the caterpillars are
doubtless living on them. Some irri-
eating bitches leading out of Dry
creek were crowded with them. The
origin of the worms is unknown, thugh
there are millions of them. B. F..
Engle, a pioneer, says that he saw a
similar visitation 20 years ago in Ma
rion county, Willamette valley, where
the only harm done was to gardens.
1t is the first time such a visitation
has been experienced here.
