These buildings consist of Lynch Bros.’ general store, Chisholm’s hardware store, two buildings for R. 8. Sargent, being his store and warehouse, Adams’ drug store and post office building, the Union Bank build- ing, three buildings for Mr. Bigelow, a barber shop for John Wander, and a bungalow for J, W. Turner. The last mentioned building is practically completed and Mr. and Mrs. Turner will move in next Tuesday. The con- tractors have made a start on their own office building on the eorner of Alfred and Queen, but owing to the numerous jobs they have on hand they are making very slow progress with it. The Williams-Carr Lumber Co., who are to handle all kinds of coast building material, have al- ready received a large number of orders for finishing lumber, roof- ing, beaver board, etc., and their first shipment of twelve cars will be absorbed soon after its ar- rival. ° ° . The store at the north end of Francois Lake has been restocked by the proprietor, Mr. Mosher, who has placed Mr. Cox in charge, who informs us that the increase in the price of provisions will not average more than 2 1-2 per cent. over local prices. This store is 65 miles nearer the Sibolla gold field and will doubtless get the patronage the enterprising pro- prietor deserves. Frank Johnson is taking his pack train down to Hudson Bay Mountain to pack out-ore from the White Heather group for an initial shipment to the smelter. * ° * . Smith and Erickson, who made a new strike on Hudson Bay Mountain between Chicken Lake and Smithers a couple of months ago, have been doing some fur- ther prospecting lately, and have found another lead, samples from which Mr. Smith brought in this week, showing the same charac- ter of ore as that of Hunter Ba- sin, and is sending them down for assay. They are preparing to build a cabin on their prop- erty, which is only a short dis- tance from the railway, and will do some work this winter. Sweeney and Orchard are mov- ing their business down to Smithers this week and will open up again on Main street, between Second and Third. * * * A real estate deal of consider- able importance was consummat- ed this week when the Clayson place, a few miles east of Smithers, was sold for a con- sideration of $50 per acre. Mr. Paul H. Moore was the vendor in the deal, and Mr. J. GC. Rock, who recently paid the valley a visit for the purpose of investing, was the purchaser. . . ° Dick Rogers returned the fore part of the week from the Deep Creek section and reports a splendid showing made by the summer’s work on the mineral property there in which he is in- terested. He was accompanied on the trip by Mr. Dockrill, who took a number of camples from the vein to take with him to Van- couver for assaying. Dockrill had heard of the splendid returns the owners had had “from this property, and as he is not a man to overlook good things, took the opportunity to sample the prop- erty himself. ° . * F. M. Dockrill closed up his af- fairs in Telkwa this week and left for the coast on Wednesday. He expressed himself as being well pleased with the showing his company had made on their coal measures, and said that he was satisfied that when spring opens up they would be prepared to carry out some extensive plans. He had preliminary surveys made for a power plant at the junction of Howson Creek and the south fork of the Telkwa River, and is making application for water rights at that place, with the ob- ject of eventually utilizing it to generate’ electricity. — Telkwa Tribune. GEN. DIAZ TO RETURN Ex-President of Mexico to Leave Europe this Month Biarritz, Oct, 8.—Gen. Perfirie Diaz, ex-president of exico, probably will return to Mexico toward the end of the month.
