means Of an electric pump, is on the
ground an interested observer of pro-
ceedlngs. The company has been pre-
pltlnE TO start up operations for many
months, the preliminary work being in
charge OF John Hebener. BY vexatiOus
delays, through no fault of the man
ager, has prevented actual operations
until within the past week. The fumes
are now all in place, the pump in work.
ing order and u steady stream of water,
sand and gravel is being turned thro'
the boxes. The stream is washing off
the surface on the first run, and some
trouble is being experienced with large
nOuI1ers. The richer and better pay
dirt will be encountered on bed rock
No clean up has yet been made, and
that crucial proceeding is looked for

u.ca gold, and prospecting with pans

Golden sands people are now operat-

undoubtedly other companies will be
organized, and the banks of the stream
become as busy a scene of mining as

thousand prospectors were using pan,

AN Old TYPO

Last Thursday evening this Office had
a pleasant call from w. ). Reyes, 4
representative of the Winnipeg branch
of the Miller 4 Richard, typeiounders,
an Edinburgh, Scotland, company that
does business ON this side Of the water
almost exclusively in Canada. Mir.
Keyes is an old time print. who in his
day has held eases on almost all the
daily papers of the west on this side OF
the line, and was full Of "reminiscences
of the anthony jorkers who passed to
and fro and were well known in every
print shop of any size between Chicago
to San Francisco in the days before the
machines worked revolution in the
business. And they were a race Of in-
telligent Independent, rowing, not al
ways strictly steady hail fellows well
met who, it may be said, have almost
entirely disappeared of the face Of the
earth

A FREAK or NATURE.

About a mile and half west OF town
there is lake of considerable size,
the waters of which are SO heavily i'm
pregnated with sulphate of magne5ta
that during the lapse of ages, through
the process Of evapot alton, the entire
area is covered to an unknown depth
with a white incrustation which is a
high grade of EPSON salts, almost
wholly free from impurities 1t is a
singular freak Of nature this medicated
lake, and for extent of surface covered,
and the large per centage Of salts in
the water, there is nothing to surp9ss
it anywhere. Here and there the
brackish waters show through the crust
over the surface of the lake. The salts
can be removed in cakes, or a granu-
lated condition, and there is said to be
hundreds of tons in sight. 1t has been
chemically analysed, and pronounced
the best natural salts that has ever
been discovered. From appearances
there seems to be a sufficient quantity
to supply the entire country.
The lake is owned 10y J.. McCammon
and several associates, and several Ell
forts have been made to get the pro-
duct on the market, but owing to the
low price of salts in bulk and the high
