Bill" Steele Is Said to
 Have Struck It Rich
(Prince Rupert News.)


 PRINCE RUPERT, Nov. 7.-William B. Steele, better known as "Bill' Steele, arrived in town last evening from Manson Creek district. MT. Steele, who is one of the pioneer min ing men of the Omineca country, hay ing been in there for the last twenty years, is suffering from a severe at- tack of muscular rheumatism and has gone south to the hotsprings for treat ment
 With his partner, Jack Mullan, an other old timer in that country, he has been working on Lost Creek for the past six years, during the first five of which they put in a lot of work without ever taking color Right where they are working is the scene of great placer mining activity of forty years ago, when Manson had a population of 3,2O0 people and fortunes were taken out of the creeks.
 After five years of apparently futile labor, Bill and his partner have struck pay and the first pan taken out show. ed $45, while the property is now giv- ing up $50 per man per day. The story of the development is interest ing. At their claim, the creek has an elbow bend, and, though the placer miners of many years ago took much coarse gold out of the straight above and below the elbow, not color was got in the bend of the stream. Be- lieving that the creek had altered it's course, the old miners drove a tunnel straight across the bend but struck a cannon and quit. Trying further up, they had the same result. Messrs. Steele and Mullan, believing that the theory of the old miners was the right one, started to drive tunnel above the old workings. After they were in 520 feet, the air became very bad and they had to sink an air shaft. Shortly after that they struck the pay and it looks as if they are bound to take out as much gold as was taken out of the other parts of the creek forty years ago.
 They have taken out S1,800 in 22 days, and Bill is going south quite confident that he will return to find that his partner has piled up little fortune in his absence. MT. Steele says that there is big mining future before the Manson Creek country just as soon as the Thomas railroad is built, as there are large bodies of low grade ores which will pay handsomely if mined by up-to-date methods.
 The Steele and Mullan property is about 1855 miles northeast of Hazelton, and, crippled with rheumatism, MT. Steele had trying time coming out, the trip occupying sixteen days. That he will return to the north a new man and to find that Lost Creek is deliver ing the goods will be the hope of Bills many friends in Prince Rupert and throughout the north.

GIGANTIC TASK OF RED
 CROSS EXAMPLIFIED
HOW THE ORGANIZATION WAS STARTED-HoW THE WORK
 BECAME UNIVERSAL.

According to history, representa- tives of fourteen nations met in Gene va fifty-three years ago and took the first steps toward organization of that beneficent society known as the Red Cross. It was a Swiss, M. Henri Dun- ant, who fathered this movement, and it is in Geneva that the Red Cross still maintains it's headquarters.
 The Comite International de la Croix Rouge in Geneva maintains $50 men of all nationalities who are hand ling the immense business incident to the war.
 The Geneva headquarters is a clear. ing house for communications be- tween people of the warning nations. Here the lists of prisoners are kept "a task in itself, involving thousands of men of the same names, about whom anxious relatives are constant ly inquiring.
 Tidings of the imprisoned, the kill ed and the wounded have been sup piled by the committee to a multitude of widows and wives, father, mothers, children and sweethearts in all the belligerent countries. Among the workers, volunteer and paid, are those of English, German, French, Austrian, Italian, Russian and other national ities, but in their relations with one another they are friendly and helpful, one and all animated by a common desire to serve those whose appeals pour into the office like an avalanche.

UNITED Press Dispatch.l

London, Eng, August 23.-One of
the greatest battles of the worlds
history appears to be developing in
the Balkans along line of about
$50 miles. The Turks have been
rushing reinforcements to the side
of the Germanic nations, threaten
ing the allies on one side, and stand
ing ready to attack Roumania on the
other, in case that kingdom should
see fit to intervene on the side Of
Turkeys enemies. 1t is understood
that Austria also has been asked to
send heavy re-inforcements.
Never before in modern history
has there been fought a battle
wherein the troops of so many diff
ferent nations have been engaged.
On the one side the French, Brit
ish, Russians, Italians, Servians and
Montenegrins are opposed to the
Germans, Austrians, Bulgarians and
Turks.
BuIgars are Aggressive.
While the Bulgarians have been
making aggressive movements on
both wings they are being met with
effective opposition by the artillery
of the British and French. The Ital-
ians are reported to be making good
progress up the Valdar valley.
Bucharest is looking with keen
interest at the developments of the
situation in the Balkans. There is
still much talk about Romania go
ing into the war on the side Of the
allies, but it is reported that promi-
nent Roumanians in position to
know, say that Romania will not in
trvene on the side of the allies until
the allies have shown that they can
beat back the Bulgarians, and have
made substantial gains up the VAL
