 A. Novich, of Yonkers, the store keeper, and Kalman Feldman, the in spector, are the plaintiffs. Justice Young reserved decision on a motion to dismiss the complaints as frivolous and ill-founded.
 Novich charges he was disgraced among orthodox Jews and his business damaged. Feldman lost his job, he complains, because it was his duty to inspect the shop of Max Braun, an- other kosher butcher of Yonkers, whose name also was included in the list.

sLoAN's INFLUENCE ON MINING

It has been aptly said that man cannot become really famous until after he is dead Certain it is that mems good deeds live after them. British Columbia has finally entered upon an era of mining development that bids fair to placing the industry in this province in the very fore front of world-famous mining dis tricts.
 The foundations for this develop nent and future promise were well md truly laid by the late Hon. Vii liam Sloan, minister of mines in the Liberal government, man who knew the mining game from the ground up, and who has left a mining develop ment policy behind him which. if carried out sensibly and with eonfi- dence, cannot do other than place British Columbia in the very fore most of mineral producers.
 British men, miners, farmers, and, in short, every section of the public. must profit materially from the de- velopment of the provincial mines. Tn few short months the fruits of Hon. MT. Sloans years of work have begun to be apparent. He established a reputation for sound mining laws, protection to both capital and labor, and policy of encouragement which today are being reflected in the re- markable interest now being taken in mining projects throughout every mineralized secion of the province.
 Like all great movements, present mining activities have only followed course of preparation which have required years to work out. The min ister of mines determined that the public should be protected against wildcat ventures. So he appointed res ident engineers of indisputable abil- ity. They have reported upon every discovery and their reports have proved a sound basis for capital to proceed upon.
 Hon. w. H. Sutherland, who has succeeded MT. Sloan as provincial minister of mines, is an able admin istrator. He has announced his inten- tion of pushing mining development to the full, and it appears that within year or two the mining industry must take first place among the ma for industries of British Columbia The Prince Rupert News.

After a thor ough examination Of Lease No. 103 Che Joy Mines Limited were convinced that il is an especially attractive hy- draulie proposition.

JOE JACKSON MAKES TEST
 SHIPMENT FROM NEW VEIN
(Hyder ZMiner


 A 400-pound test shipment of ore from a well mineralized vein encoun- tered last week on the Lucky Strike group of the Portland Canal Gold Mines Company, in the Georgia Riv- CT section, was sent to Granby smell ter last Saturday by Joe Jackson, A small shipment was also to the Company head quarters in Vancouver.
 The ore was encountered in a short tunnel driven on a more sparse ly mineralized vein during the past three weeks and bears little resem- blance to the surface ore. The miner alization is chalcopyrite, with which the ore is heavily impregnated.
 The ore also contains a large amount of silica, valuable to smell ters as fIuxing material.
 According to Jackson the entrance to the tunnel in which the ore was found is only about 20 feet from the high-water mark on Portland Canal. If the ore proves valuable it can be loaded on scows direct from the mine at a minimum cost.

FORMER WRANGELL WOMAN INJURED IN AUTOMOBILE
 ACCIDENT AT JUNEAU
Mrs. William c. Jenson Received Se- we're Cuts and Bruises When Car in Which She Was Riding
 Was Wrecked
(Juneau Empire)

Mrs. W. c. Jenson received severe cuts and bruises and her daughter Elsie suffered from shock yesterday afternoon when the Buick automo- bile in which they were riding crash ed into telephone pole on Sixth street.
 The auto was practically demOlish- ed, and is damaged beyond repair. owned by Charles Miller, taxi driver, the car was being driven by Steve Vu. koyieh, who was taking the Jensons to their home on Sixth street. AS he turned into Sixth street from East street the car shot ahead as the gas lever would not spring back when it was released.
 By the time the car reached the next block it was travelling at about 35 miles per hour. As the street was being repaired there was little room in which the car could pass in safety, while the brakes were worn and would not hold. The driver did his best to pass through the narrow road way, but when he started to swerve to the center of the road, after pass ing the section being repaired, the car swung sidewise and struck the telephone pole near the corner of Franklin street.
 Mrs. Jenson was bruised and re- ceived a severe cut on her arm which necessitated several stitches being taken, while her daughter was the re- cipient of minor scratches and bruises and was affected by the shock. Vuko- vich and E. Turner, driver for Miller, who was to return the auto to Front street, escaped without any notice able injuries.
