One case in particular was brought to he attention of the Fores- try Assoclaion regarding the bravery of two women, Mrs, E, T. Knutson and Miss I. Hogarth. The story of the courageous ac of these two women wus published by the.Association, and so iingressed were the directors of the Associaton with the keen sense of duty of these two women that the following resolution was pasicd : “That the Dirwstows of tho Cuosdian Forester Associacion, hawwong herr of the heroie con@u:t.of Mrs ‘(EoT WW. ot son and Mis I.

Taylor set his price und stayed with it until he finally got an offer hat was awfal- ly close. Instend of $10,000 cash he is taking $5,000 cosh and $5,000 more in six months. The bond is for $200,000 This is about as good news asthe district has heard for a very long time and it will make business a whole lot better this winter. Since Taylor dis- covered the property last summer it has attracted move engineers than any pro- ‘perty in the interior, and while all the engineers did not rush back to heir principals with advice to buy’ at any old price, there was none who report: ed adversely. My. Clayborn, represent- ing the Consolidated, was here week and closed the deal.

A couple of weeks ago 2 heavy snow storm visited the locality and when th suow melted the road was tuo soft to use. During the season Mr. Tredway shipped three cars of ore and the re- turns were so satisfactory that he is now planning on working next sensou on u much larger scale. This property has always been regarded as oue that was worthy of development, and al- though considerable work was done on it years ago by several outfits, for one reuson or another work was suspended. It is quite within reason that Mr, Tredway willl go ahead and make a nine ou of it, Such things have fre- pnently been done before. Many of the biggest and best mines have’ been turn- d down, first by one engineer and then another, but eventually becime heavy dividend payrs. In fact this has hap- pened so often that an dverse report by an engineer Is taken by many as a big boost for a prospect. This may be another such case. ~ * ’ |. ‘Smithers The young Ind Wicks who tried to poison a couple of men nd dog besides himself in the Coolleymount district is now in New ‘Westminster the doctor decided he was not well, D.
