Dividend Checks Accompanied by an
Optimistic Statement

Stockholders of the Silversmith
Mines received dividend checks last
week representing a disbursement at
the rate of , cents per share, aggre-
eating $4,000. The Silversmith mine
is near Sandon, b. c. A letter from
John B. White, of Spokane president
of the company, says:
"The mine and mill have been con-
tinuously in operation with but slight
interruptions and production at the
rate Of some 500 tons of crude silver
lead ore and concentrates as well as
300 tons of zinc concentrates has been
steadily maintained. The silver-lead
concentrates average Approximately
100 ounces in silver and 60 per cent
lead to the ton. and the zinc concen-
trates about 45 ounces in silver and
so per cent zinc to the ton. One piece
of development work along the 500
foot level added additional ore, the
length of this ore body being about
12O feet and the width about 4 feet
The Wine started in the 1OOO-foot
level to the east which has been sunk
to a depth of 80 feet, discloses ore. /
The ore in this Wine is no part of
the ore body in the west end of the
mine where mining is now in pro-
gress. The discovery of new ore i'm

increased price for lead brought on
by a greater demand, your board OF

ST|RS METHOD|STS
At DAWSON MEET

DAWSON, Ca, June 12.-The
Americas district conference, which
convened at the Dawson Methodist
church Monday morning, June 3,
has adjourned following session
at which DR. w. G. Lovett, presiding
elder, presided. A large delegation
of ministers and iaymen were rrss-
ent and every item of business was
dispatched with thoroughnesE.
Many Of the delegates stated that
never before had they seen such
large number present at any session
of the district conference of the
Americas district.
This being DR.. Lovett's last year
on the district, resolutions of conf
dence and love were offered and
passed by an unanimous rising vote.
One of the most, if not the most
important and most interesting item
of the session, was the paper pre-
sented by Rev. T. M. Christian, pas
tor of the First Methodist church,
this city, and signed by a large
number Of the leading laymen and
ministers, stressing their strong dis
approval and opposition to the call
ing of q special session of the gen.
eral conference before the meeting
of the annual conference. at which
time delegates could be elected to
this special session of the gener3~
conference with instructions.
In the paper offered by DR., Chris,
tan, strong opposition was also ex-
pressed to the plan of unification.
stating that if it passes it will!
not unite the two churches, but
would be a coercion of many
into the so-called union against their
will.
More than so per cent of the dele
gates did not cast their vote at all
declaring they desired to study the
plan" thoroughly before taking ac-
ton. A motion made by Mr.. Frank
G.. Branch, president Of Andrew Fee!
male college, at Cuthbert, Ga, to lay
the resolution on the table, prohibit
ed debate on the topic further, thir-l
ty-six having favored the motion as
against twenty-one opposing the ta-
bling of the motion.
The next session of the Americas
district conference will be held at
First church. Americas, the time
