OPTION EXPIRES MARCH 1 The Monita Promises To Be a Rich Mine. The most important transaction in mining properties that has taken place in the Rossland camp since the sale of the War Eagle was cansum- mated yesterday, when the Monita was bonded for $200,000 by a Montreal syndicate represented by J. F. Ward- ner. The option expires on March 1, Tie deal has been on for several days. The Monita adjoins the War Eagle and is expected to develop into as rich a property as that well known mine.

Two new boats will be built for the pur- pose. One of them is in the stocks at Nakusp now, and will be launched by May 1.

The New 120 Ton Concentrater at Cody in Operation. The Slocan City News says that since the new 120 ton concentrator at Cody has been in the courses of construction there has not been a pound of ore shipped from the mine, as there was more than money enough in the treasury to complete the concentrator, tramway and other improvements, and as every ton of ore concentrated was so much saved in smelter and railway charges. Work has been going steadily ahead in blocking out ore and in run- ning a crosscut tunnel at the eighth level to reach the ore body. The ore body has been reached and the tunnel isallin ore- For the present 150 tons of ore will be concentrated daily. This will immediately put the Noble Five right up with the “top notchers” as a shipping mine. ips NEW MINING COMPANIES. Articles have been filed for the in- after the same general ptan as the Nakusp, except that it will have only two decks. It will be intended both for freight and passenger service. It will travel between Arrowhead and Robson, on alternate days with the Nakusp. The steamer Trail will muke daily trips between Trail and Robson, connecting daily with the upper lake boats at the latter point. This will give both freight and passen- gers daily connections between Trail and the O. P. R. at Revelstoke. The new boat soon to be built will be designed al her for and express business, and no freight will be handled.
