Norman Tobias, of Winnipeg, who, in company with E. W. L. George, negotiated the recent deals for the Virginia, Crest and Border Groups for Winni- peg interests, is expected to return to Hyder shortly after March l.
 That the arrangements made by Messrs. Tobias and George were satisfactory to their prin- cipals is indicated by the arriv- al this week of the first pay ments on the several proper ties, nearly three weeks before they were due.

MOUNTAINVIEW TUNNEL ENTERING NEW ORE
 ZONE AT 500 FEET

Prospects for the opening up of a new ore zone at a vertical depth of 500 feet are becoming increasingly promising with the extension of the new tunnel on the Fish Creek properties of the Mountainview Gold Mining Company.
 The tunnel, which extends easterly from the main or Skookum Creek tunnel, has now reached a point in close proximity to the Gold Vein and penetrates a mineralized zone carrying liberal ore disseminat- ions in stringers and small bod ies showing considerable gray copper and some galena, to- gether with sparse pyrites. The ore is apparently of high grade character but no assays had been made at the time of the inspection and the true value was not determined.
 The ore was encountered shortly after the tunnel had passed through dyke which traverses the northeasterly corner of the property and lies between the quartz-porphyry belt and a shear zone in which the Gold and other promising ore bodies are locat- ed. The face of the tunnel is over 1900 feet from the portal of the Skookum Creek tunnel.
 The important feature of the ore discovery is that it indi- cates the probable persistence of the richly mineralized Gold Vein to a depth of 500 feet be- low the outcrops.
 Manager Arthur Moa states that the tunnel is being extend ed in a Y, one branch of which is projected to cut the Gold Vein and the other to explore the farther recesses of the shear zone.

SINKING EQUIPMENT
 FOR B. C. SILVER

An extensive shipment of mine equipment for the E. c. Silver is scheduled to arrive from the south within a brief period. The consignment Is made up principally of sinking equipment and includes sink ing buckets, automatic bucket dumping irons, cross heads and similar devices, which will be installed in a new double com partment vertical shaft now being sunk from the No. 3 level to cut the northerly extensions of the ore zones found in the Simpson claim of the Premier Gold Mining Company, and which were mined by the lat ter company up to the very line of the B. c. Silver.
 In a report to the headquart- CTS of the Selukwe Company in London in March 1926, MT. Banks expressed the view that the Simpson ore leads extended into the B. c. Silver at ap- proximately the horizon of the Premier 4th level, or 450 feet below the B. c. No. 3 level.
 The new shaft is said to be located very close to the south erly border of B. c. Silver near the northerly end of the Simp- son claim and about 700 feet from the portal of the No. 3 tunnel.
 The work of sinking the tun- nel is expected to require about six months.

R. R. RECONDITIONING
 TO START SOON

Preliminary activities looking to the revival of the Canadian Northeastern Railway, or Port land Canal Short Line will start locally within 9 period of six weeks unless unusually se- were weather should create prohibitive conditions, accord ing to late arrivals from Van- couver, where the project is said to be attracting great in- interest in mining circles and is the subject of much speculat- ion.
 Although ultimate extension of the line as an outlet for the Peace River section may be envisioned by the packers of the project, it appears that present plans contemplate . purely local enterprise, based on the mineral and other re- sources of the district. The erection of a saw mill and possibly a pulp mill are said to be included in the company's contemplations.
 The line is expected to be ready for operation as far as the Red Cliff mine, 15 miles north of Stewart, by next Aug ust. In addition to serving the mines under development, it is said the road will also be utilized as a logging road in connection with the sawmill, which will be located near Bit ter Creek. The plans also in- clude the extension of the road to the head of Bear River to serve mines in that locality by the fall of 1929 and later prob- able extension to the Ground hog coal area if found practic- able.
 Hon. H. H. Stevens, M. F., and Mir. w. A. Lewthwaite and their associates in the pur- chase of the road have organ ized a company known as the Vancouver Holdings, Limited, which will control it's future destinies. The line will be op- erated under the name of the Canadian Northeastern Rail- way.

JUST HATED TO
 THROW FEM AWAY!

Writing on expensive letter. paper under an engraved ad- dress, a St. Louis lady who is said to have visited the district with a tourist party three years or so ago, recently addressed the following letter to Post master Oren r. Hill; enclosing 37 cents in Canadian postage stamps.
 Postmaster:
 Would it be too much trouble to exchange 37 cts. Canadian stamps for U. s. A.
 We purchased more than we used and just hated to throw them away and my postman said he couldn't exchange them in St. Louis"
 As the local postoffice does not deal in Canadian stamps, the lady was referred to the Dominion Postoffice depart ment in Ottawa, where she may ultimately make the much desired swap"
