Tee Van Anda smelter is shippiie £50, 00’ worth of" topper matte to New York monthly. Oa Douglas Pine, up the coast, in which Spokase people are interested, an important strike has teen made. In tunorel No. 1, a new ore shute averaging five feet has been en- countered. It is typical Rossland ore ; the average sample goes $312 in gold, $9 in silver, It is not Dawson now, but Atlin that returned Argonanta +peak of when they come from thé nort*. Two big ledges of copper are reported tohave been discovered within six miles of Atlin. They were located by tenderfooie, who staked ex claims. The two ledges are clos? to each other ; 1,500 feet covers two. They sav the ledges are exposed for three or four miles along tue mountains, Atlin people who have been told of the discovery say thatif balf of what the tenderfeet say is true, thiscopper findis about the richest thing in the wnel- country. There is also a narrow Jedge of Orapge-colored quartz running through one of thease ledger. They believe 1t carries geld. This find of copper 's much cearer Atlin than the one reported a few weeks since. ‘Tbe Hal] Mines, Limited, a big English company, operating at Nelson, opened the preseot month witb a shipment of cepper matt? and bulk copper. There was 271,- 418 pounds of copper in the shipment, which wae entered threugh the custome ae valued at $40,513. Tha copper was consigned to the refiner at Newark, N.

Oats and potatoes are a splendid crop, while tie wheat although much rusted i8 greatly in advance of expectation. The turnip crop is suffering from club-~ root. It isa pleasing sight when driving ; through the seitiement tu witness the | biader at work on almost every farm. The Maseey-Harris is evidently the favorite. Mr. Michael Curran arrived home froin Bosion on Satirday, 2nd inat. We are p'eased to see him hale and hearty. He may poreibly return to Uncle Sam’s domi- nous this fall. Miss Mary Hickie, -of «Boston, who vieited Summerville recently, was the gues'of Mr. PeterJ. D. Edmonds. She left for Charlotie;own on Sept. 5tb, and returns to Boston on “the Grand Duchess” Sept. 12.b. All wish Miss Hickie a piearant voyage. Miss Martha Mahar ie also visiting use. She comes from Charlottetown and is a guest of Mr. Jobo Mahar. Mrs. Peter J D. Eimonds is speading a few weeks at Alberton, being the guest of Mr. and Mrs. W. D. White. Miss Mary O'Neill, of Vernon River, is now looking after the vocsi and instru: mente! wants ot the community. Miss O'Neill isa splendid musician, and wii, no doubt, prove herself wn expert teacher.

It was not alto- gether the farmers’ fau]t that in past"years the grain suflered much inthe stack. The rush to get the crop off the fields was too great, with the number of hands available, to allow of that seientifc stack-building that we have in when the barn gets over~ crowded, But besides the basty stacking there was Jack of threshing machines. Now, itis stated, there are plenty of these, and it is poseible to get the wheat into the bins a very 6horttime afterit has been reaped. ——— Seems as if all the things we like-dis- agree with us, and all the things we don’t like, agree with us.
