ance from Winnipeg to contest.

The matter of a toboggan slide was
broughs up and discussed; but no action
was taken further. If ashde is built

As to the hockey clubs, so far: asis

tons a day at’present.

It will:probably be gold on the cars in
Rossland at $6.76 per ton, and $7.75 de-
livered.. It is stated positively that. the
price will not exceed $7.75 per ton. One
ton is said to equal over two cordsof the
best tamarac wood. When. the broad
gauge between Rossland and Trail.ia fin-
ished, the. price will be reduced fifty
cents a ton, for it will obviate the re-
loading of the coal onto the narrow
