Captured Silver. Fox

Wm. Clark, a resident of the Bulkley valley, captured a_silver fox a short time ago, and is now looking for a mate with the in- tention of starting a silver fox ranch. Fox raising in the east is getting to bean important indus- try and it is made easy by the generous aid given by the gov- ernment. The average value of silver fox fur is around $1,000 to $1,500 and as high as $2,500. No doubt the provincial government will be in line with those of the east and offer inducements. for the breeding of these fur-bearing animals, and it is to be hoped that Mr. Clark is successful in finding a mate for his capture.

Off to Gold Strike

Phil Hankin left here yester- day with a couple of men for the gold strike at Atlin. They will mush over the trail, taking supplies by dog team. Much in- terest is shown around here in the strike: news of which: has caused great excitement all over the country, and about which ru- mors conflict. Great throngs are facing the hardships to get in.

Sawmill Machiaery

The machinery for the sawmill to be established at Francois lake has arrived at New Hazelton. On Tuesday the big boiler was taken from the car and started out to the valley. The little snow that fell this week will make the transportation of the machinery a little less difficult.

Completing Contract

Malcolm McLeod, tie contrac- ;

tor for the G.T.P., has about finished his contract for the road and a few of his men passed through here last week on their way out. - They are finishing the contract for ties for the road near Chicken lake.

“{. Moving to New Hazelton

Mr. McArthur, who is connect- ed with the big job, has bought Mr.-Bailey’s. house on Eleventh. avenue and will move in shortly. Mrs. MeArthur and ‘children have been residing in Prince Ru- pert, but Mr. McArthur has de- cided to have them: nearer at hand, and they will all be wel- comed to the new town.

New Rooming House

overhauled his building on Twelfth avenue and is fixing it up as a.rooming house, . He has several beds set up and when he gets it completed he will have a clean,. comfortable stopping place. It will help a little to solve the problem of accommodation for the travelling public.

Working Their Ranches

Bill Sweeney returned from the valley last week where he went with Roy McDonald and E. Hill. Bill carne back ty make #trip of inspection to his coal property at Groundhog, while the others will remain on the farms and get busy with the spring work.

- Moved Out the Line H. W. Kraus, whv has been running the road house at 18 mile for the past year, has moved to 89 mile—the old McInnes stand. He desires to thank the public for their liberal patronage in the past, and invites everyone to stop at his new place. Good, clean beds and the best of meals.

—“Seventy-Five and Bill Ellis was arrested a few days ago at Burns lake. Bill had ladied out some hooch to an In- dian woman at old Hazelton some time previous, Bill’s feelings are hurt and he cannot. understand why he should be assessed $76,

to say nothing of the trimmings.
