they keep The LID on
IN COBALT DISTRICT

OTTAWA, Can, Oct. 3.-The
Cobalt mining camp has half a
dozen churches and no saloons.
There is not a dance hall in the
place and there has never been a
knitting or shooting affray.
On Sundays ven the news
stands and soda water fountains
close and the place is as quiet as
any locality of $500 could be.
Canadian law refuses a saloon
license within six miles of any
mine. The custom of Canadians is
responsible for the rest of the lid.
When Paddy Welch, black
smith, sold his two claims at
big price, he spent what money he
could in Cobalt. He loaned Money
to all his acquaintances and he
went to the city where money
could be spent more easily. A few
weeks ago he died in hospital at
Toronto.
Before silver was found Cobalt
was not even a stopping place.
Provincial Geologist w. G. Miller
christened the town. TIE wrote the
name on a board and put it up
beside the track. The name stuck.
, In June year ago the boom be-
gan. Last May the town was filled
with prospectors. There were two
or three frame buildings and hun
dreds of rough shacks. There are
no laid out streets and no sewers.
Now the boom has busted. The
prospectors who rushed in from
all over America and swarmed the
hills miles each way from Co
bait have nearly all left. The min
ing stock exchange has closed and
shacks for sale all over town find
few purchasers.
The departing miners do not dis
credit the rich finds, but they be-
lieve the most valuable deposits
are in an area of about four miles
already under claim.
For the collapse of the boom the
. mining law passed last spring is
held responsible. This law allows
man 9 days after claim Is filed
to develop the prospect. If the
government inspector then believes
that tn find is not great enough to
be a mine, he reports mo dis
covery," and the claim is again
thrown open to prospectors. The
law prevented wholesale blanket
ing of land and secured quick de-
velopment of the finds, and headed
off a period of stock jobbing. Much
less than half the claims pass in
spection.
Before the inspection law was
passed a number Of sailed mines
were unloaded on spectators who
rushed into Cobalt with the first
of the boom. The nature of the
find made their counterfeit dupll-
cation easy.
