Again demonstrating that it is one of the most product i've and spectacular mines in history, the great Premier will shortly add another quarterly dividend of $400,00O to the more than six million dollars paid in dividends since the first distribution of net earnings December 31, 1921, according to a statement made a few days ago by R. w. Wood, president of the Pre- mier Gold Mining Company, to the Vancouver Province.
 MT. Wood is quoted as stat ing that the forthcoming div idend, the third quarterly payment of the present year, will he distributed October 3rd.. With the paying over of this amount to sharehold- CTS, the famous mine will have paid a total of $6,800, 900 in dividends since the first dividend was declared in December 1921.
 As the company is capitalized at $5,0OO 000,the above fig ure represents total payments to shareholders amounting to 136 per cent within a period of less than four years.
 In addition to this spectac- ular dividend production, the mine has been to a large ex- tent equipped and developed from it's own earnings.
 Perusal of the pages of min- ing history discloses few silver mines that have achieved such a spectacular record, and few quartz mines of any character have paid a greater amount in dividends in an equal period of production.

ACCIDENT AT
 PREMIER MINE.

T. Caruso, an employee of the Premier mine, suffered painful and perhaps serious injuries to his eyes by an acci- dental explosion of giant pow der in an ore chute at the mine Friday morning. It ap- pears that the accident was due to the powder being scatt- cred through the broken ore by the failure of a charge to explode in the mine, while breaking down was in prog ress. The explosion of other shots is said to have thrown the charge out of the face be- fore detonation, scattering the powder through the broken rock. As a result a fragment of the powder found it's way into the ore chute where Car uso was working. When he at tempted to break a jam in the chute with an iron bar, the metal struck the bit of pow der, causing the explosion. Numerous small fragments of rock and dust were blown in- to Caruso's face and eyes, one of which appeared badly in- jured. After treatment at the Mine hospital, the company sent the injured man to Van couver, Saturday for expert treatment.

AMONG GREATEST
 DIVIDEND PAYERS IN HISTORY

mier mined a total of 145, ,655 dry tons of ore, from which was produced 117,294 ounces of gold and 2,746,551 ounces of silver, according to the last annual report to stockholders. In addition the stated amount of ore yielded 62,191 pounds of lead.
 Of the total tonnage mined during the year 57,796 tons were milled at the mine; 52, 992 tons was shipped to the Ta- coma shelter, and the remain ing 4,877 tons was sent to the Granby smelter at Anyox, B. G.
 Conservative estimates of the assured ore in the mine work ings at the beginning of the present year were 360,000 tons averaging 85 ounces in gold and 15 ounces silver, with an average value of $26 per ton. In addition there was a large tonnage of low grade ore de- yeloped above mine level that could not be profitably milled under present conditions but may be considered a possible future asset. Diamond drilling carried on below the working level of the mine also disclosed further ore reserves approx imating 146,000 tons, with an indicated average value of .S9 ounces in gold and 3.2 ounces of silver per ton, in addition to areas containing ores running as high as $50 per ton.
 Recent unauthenticated re- ports from the mine also indi- cated that a sixty foot vein of $45 orc had been encountered on No 6 level, present working level, during the course of dia- mond drilling operations.

The U. s. Geological Survey party under associate tcroy- |rapher R. N. Wilson, Naich has devoted most of tk @.nl- mer to collecting data tor a topographic map of the Sal mon river district, completed its labors last week and let for the Outside on the Wales.
 The area surveyed is approx imately Is miles long by 1l miles wide and extends along both sides of the Salmon valley northward to where the bound- ary line turns westward ne~r Mt. Lirdeborg. The survey al , included the Texas Creek val ley as far as Chickamin glac- fer, and also 8 portion of th3 Thumb Creek section. A large part of the data was secured by means of panoramic photG- graphs. These will be fitted t1- gether to make a composite photograph showing most Of the elevations, contours and flow O. streams. About 200 O. the views were taken in all. The map to be made from thc data SC cured will be on the ba; is of 1G0 foot contours and W l. show, in addition to the ge.:- eral topogranhv of tho

FIRE PEND
 VISITS STEWART

Stewart B. c. was visited by a veritable epidemic of fires during the past week. In add ition to the blaze in Dr. But ler's office in the Portland Canal News Building Satur- day, details of which are given elsewhere in this issue, the electric power house of the Stewart Public Utilities, and the home of Hugo Stratford adjoining, were destroyed by the fire demon early Wednes- day morning; and the tent house occupied by MT. and Mrs. Sidney Fraser while their house is being built, also went up in smoke on the preceding Monday evening, with a loss of ali its contents.
 The power house fire was a serious and costly affair, cut ting off the electric lightserv- ice and the water supply and for a time threading to involve adjoining buildings. Theplant and also the Strat- ford home were completely destroyed, in addition to the water works tower, with a loss of approximately $10,000.
 Although damaged by the flames, it is thought that the engine which provided pow CT for the plant, as we'll as the water pumps can be re- paired. The electric generator was destroyed. The contents of the Stratford home were also burned, with the except ion of a piano and a few pieces of furniture.
 An automobile stored in the plant was also lost. None of the burned properties were in- sured, As result of the de- struction of the plant, the city is being lighted by the International Electric Com pany, which also supplies light to Hyder. The cause of the fire is un known. It is not decided whether the destroy ed plant will be rebuilt or not.

plishmcnt a marked testimon- ial of the freighting capacities of the company.
 Twelve feet of ore averaging $16 per ton has been encount- cred by Messrs. Gus Seiffert and Jack Pederson at depth of 75 feet on the North &South Line properties in the Bear River section. The vein was en- countered slightly more than 100 feet from the portal of the tunnel and is strong and we'll defined. It is the intent ion to drift both ways on the ore at once, and work will be prosecuted through the win ter if found advisable.
 The property is located near the Dunwell on the Glacier-Bit- ter Creek divide and is under bond to the North & South Syndicate, of which Messrs. Seiffert and Pederson are the active principals. Permanent quarters have been construct ed in anticipation of future op- erations.

also reported ln Stewart that there is an excellent prospect that funds will soon be avail able for necessary improve ments on the Porter-Tdaho pack trail on the Marmot, as a result of recommendations by George Clothier, represent tive of the Department of Mines.
 Several scow-loads of ore from the Porter-Idaho went south on the Mogul. The shipment comprised something over fifty tons and with the last previous shipment of 66 tons brings the total amount shipped to date to something over 150 tons. Owing to the large lead con- tent, shipments are now being sent to the Selby shelter, as the Tacoma smelter is unable to recover the lead values. Reports from Stewart indi- cate that the Dunwell and Gla- cier Creek properties are ready to resume operations, following the reconstruction of the old Portland Canal Mining Comp any Hume, through which wat CT was obtained for power pur- poses. S-lh properties have been closed down for the past two weeks or so, owing to the old Hume breaking under the strain of an excess of water resulting from heavy rains. Preparations have been made for continuing work on both
 properties during the winter season. Several new buildings have been constructed on the
 Dunwell and an electric light plant has been installed. Two Ingersoll Rand drifter drills have also been added to the mine equipment and will do much to facilitate future oper,
 ations. The management is
 planning to commence ship

Either of these prospects would
be displeasing to Great Britain
owing to British territorial inter.

1t was reported recently that
Japan was seeking business expan.
