Tribune, Nelson November 15, says : The Molly Gibson tramway was started yesterday ami this with the closing of a contract for the hauling of ore marks the beginning of a new era in the history of the property.Heretofore the Molly Gibson has been known as a splendid mining proposition from which several successful shipments have been made, but in future it must be regarded as a mine in every sense of the word and added to the list of producing properties which will eventually make the Nelson camp known wherever mining is followed.The tramway which has just commenced operations is 8033 leet, probably ore of the longest in the province.Most of the outfit came from the Lanark mine in the Illieillewaet district, and as reconstructed the train is substantial and complete in every respect.The contrac t for teaming lias been let to Edward Conetre and L.Mackenzie.The agreement calls for hauling twenty tons of ore to the lake daily and the product will be shipped to the Hall Mines smelter for treatment.During the coming winter the present force of 40 men will be increased to 00.A boarding house intended to accommodate 80 men is under way and should be ready for occupation in a fortnight.The shipments during the winter will be clean ore, the concentrating ore being saved on thedump forfuture treatment when a concentrator is erected.In this connection it is interesting to note that last year 500 tons of ore was shipped from the mine, realizing $17,0u0.During the four months covered by the teaming contract the value of the output will represent a small fortune.The history of the Molly Gibson mine has had its incidents like all other big properties.In IKOO R.J.Willie and F.W.George staked the first chums, which are twelve miles up stream from the mouth of Kokanee creek.They gave Fatsy Clarl of Spokane an option on the claims at $30,000 at once but the deal did not go through.Then Rufus Fo|>e, of Sherbrooke, Que., became interested through the efforts of Bruce White, and a bond was made at $70,000.Meantime the property became plunged in litigation, the result of which was that the litigants came together and arranged a settlement whereby George ami Willie were bright out at $30,000 and another man named Callahan who had become interested received $18,000.Then all interests were consolidated and a company formed and since then about $00,000 has been expended in development, road making and plant.The general formation of the country in the district of the Molly Gibson is granite, and the veins in the property are true fissure, standing almost perpendicular,and cutting the granite at right angles, and being intersected at intervals with cross veins.The ledge matter is altered granite and oxidized iron the pay chute containing galena, copper, magnesia, iron and a small percentage of gold.The ore also carries litre, which makes it very desirable for smelting purposes.The group includes the Molly Gibson, Aspen, La Flatte, Little Duke, Florence Fraction and Little Frac tion, in all, 275 acres of mineral land.The property is developed to a stage where it can produce indefinitely There are 2.000 feet of tunneling on five levels, and a reasonable estimate of the ore in sight is said to plaee its value at $500,000.No.1 tunnel has been driven on the Florence vein and is in 130 feet.It shows a ehute'Of ore 100 feet long and 12 inches wide, which assays 00 ounces in silver and 15 per cent lead.The second tunnel is also on the Florence vein UK) feet lower, but is in 310 feet.It is estimated that 7,000 tons of ore averaging 50 ounces of silver and 10 to !•> per cent lead is in sight.No.3 tunnel is on the La Flatta claim about 300 feet below the second level.It is driven.08 feet all in ore which assays 00ounces sdver and 20 per cent lead.The principal tunnel on the mine is.No.1, starting on the Aspen vein and tapping by crosscuts the Florence vein.On the A‘¦‘pen vein the tunnel was run 203 feet, ami ore was found about 30 feet from the mouth, the quality being indicated by the fact that several carloads of ore from the chute gave results of 200 ounces in silver and 20 per cent lead.The crosscut north from this tunnel struck the Florence vein at a distance of 58 feet and the tunnel was then continued along the Florence vein for 800 feet, making the total length of the drift 1,000 feet.The ore chute opened up is continuous and assays 30 to 200 ounces in silver ami 5 to 25 iter cent lead.Tunnels 1, 2.3 and 4 are estimated to show an aggregate of 12,300 tons of snipping ore in sight.No.5 tunnel i* to be a crosscut and is located on the Little Duke, 225 feet below the fourth level and is now under way.The managemci t estimates that if this No.5 tunnel develops as good a j showing as No.I they wdll nave a ( million dollars worth of fire in sight.When the vein is reached Flverton, Nov.27 One of the most sad ami melancholy events t hat ever u>ok place in t his vieinity occurred here on Tuesday at the home of Mr.Richard Elliott and his mother.Mr.Samuel Elliott, wife and little girl, the latter three years old, were here on a visit to his mother and brother, from British Columbia : and while the little girl’s mother and grandmother were engaged about some necessary house work, the little girl climbed up on a sideboard and took some pills that were in a cup, and swallowed them.These pills, most unfortunately, were strychnine pills, which the doctor had recently prescribed for her grandmother, wiio was ailing with heart failure, and she was not aware of the nature of the pills.The child, a beautiful girl, only lived about forty minutes, and died before medical attendance could reach her.This was their only child, making the loss all the more severe and painful to its parents.Our whole community sympathize with Mr.and Mrs.Elliott in their sail ami so sudden bereavement.HOW CATARRH IS MAINE.CURED IN People in Maine are not so slow for if Canada has a good tiling why they simply come to Canada for it.This is why Mrs.James A.Tweedie of Jay Bridge, Maine, has sent for sixteen outfi ts of Catarrhozone for friends in her locality.This lady gives very full particulars why she done this.Her daughter fourteen years old, had doctored for Catarrh obtaining no benefit, tried lots ot other remedies but all tailed recommended by a neighbor to try Catarrhozone.Instead of despairing as she had good reason for doing obtained Catarrhozone and before it was done, as she states, she was completely cured.No wonder she recommends it.Child had dropping in the throat, hawking, spitting, father thought she was going into consumption, could not sleep at night and adds: I only wish any one suffering from Catarrh to give it a fair trial : any druggist will enable you to do t^is for they all sell it your money hack if Catarrhozone does not benefit you.N.C.Folsom A Co., Kingston.Ont., Hartford, Conn.MaybeHoroebyNewYear Wreck of steamer p|0( j0 Murder “Bobs” — vSt Olaf.1,000 Canadians

otherwise, it iscertai i to-day that the life of Leo XIII hangs literdly by a single thread, and that his death may he ?x pec ted at any m >ment.Alwayi fr*g le in appearance, he has ow Income so enneiattd that he looks a mere sp ctre.He can no longer walk unassisted, hut spends the greater part of h5" day lyi g on a couch, and is unable to take* r regain any s >lM food.His regular honrs 'tf

waning forces.London, November 27.Dr.Morrison, wiring to the Times front Pekin, Sunday, says: “The foreign envoys have agreed to t wo proposals that were previously rejected, owing to lack of unanimity.These are Sir Ernest 8 a low’s proposal that China should agree to recast the commercial treaties and the Italian proposal that China should consent to foreign financial control as a guarantee of the indemnity.“The delay in the petitio presentation of the joint note is due to the postponements by the home Governments.This increases the difficulties of the position and aggravates the dislocation of trade and finance, especially the collection of inland revenues.At the lowest estimate the indemnity is computed at £00,000,000.LI HUNG (‘HAND ILL.Li Hung Chang, according to the

DAI (illTEHS IM.KADINUS.Quebec, November 20.Owing to the heavy snow storm yesterday it was iiii|Hissible to get any nttati-tity of news from the scene oi the steamship St.Olaf.but a short despatch arrived here this evening to ihe effect that nothing had been fourni today around the islands.Early’ today a rumor was in circulât ion that a young man had survived to tell t he story and t he news was based on the following telegram received by his mother who resides in this eiiy ; St.Olaf, lost; am well.Will come up by Josephine.Don’t be uneasy’.(Signed), Wilfrid Hoy.Young Boy’s telegram created no lit tie excitement among tin* relatives and friends of the passengers and crew of the St.Olaf, as if Roy was saved there was hope for the others, but it transpired later that Roy, who was employed by Gagnon and Freres at Pcnteeist, intended coining up to Quebec by the St Olar, but fortunately for him, changed his mind and took passage on Mr.Gagnon’* steam schooner, Marie Josephine, which is at présentât Seven islands, helping search for the bodies.A young sailor named Harpe, residing at Levi*, and employed on one of tiie ferry boats, was engaged to go a* fireman op the last trip of the St.Olaf.On the (fay's preceding her intended sailing Harpe was taking leave of his family, when his young daughter, with tears in her eyes, implored lier father not to go away from them.The later was so affected by the tears of his daughter that he gave up the idea of going on the St.Diet, but instead re-engaged immediately with the ferry company.It is Mated that on Saturday evening last, when Harpe reached home there was quite a scene between him and his daughter, who undoubtedly saved his life.WHERE THE DISASTER (M VURRED.Seven Islands is on the North Shore of the Gulf of St

nevertheless the fact that both sides are putting in hard quiet work.Although there may not be many political meetings held, and tlie excitement may not be very apparent, still the quiet telling work of a personal canvas will maks the contest a keen one to those in the fight.Dr.Pelletier is making it a point to interview every elector in the County, and will leave the speech-making more to his friends.I he doctor is a hustler and when he starts out to do a thing he will see it to tlie finish.The prospects were never brighter tor the breaking down of the Conservative stronghold than at the present time.The independent voter the man that it is the most important to have with a candidate is perfectly satisfied with the good administration of tlie late provincial government, and will to a

results, the crisis of the event of popular disapproval was postponed.“ Benevolent assimilation” of t h* Pilgrim patriots will go on under the degenerate emancipation of party government.Hamilton’s
