One of the Largest Surface Showings in

J. L. Parker has returned from a trip
to the Keystone group of mines on the
Dominion mountain, in Burnt Pass dis-
trict, about 18 miles northwest of Ross-

six miles. He says these claims have

for his trouble by 1 not only that
Jack Quincey, the man for whom he has
been looking fur three years, was in
Rossland only about six or seven tnonths
ago, but that he is most probably now
at work in the Slocan country. From
ten different sources this important in-
formation was obtained; first a stranger
in this city sent word to Mr. Wegener,
and a few hours later the latter became
acquainted with Temple Seely, the well
known Rossland mining man, who to-
day made the following statement to a
representative of the Recorp:

“When I came in from the mountains

FRYE ADMITTED TO BAIL.

Bound Over to Stand Trial for Evicting
2 Squatter.

Albert C. Frye, who was bound over
to stand trial yesterday for having | M
ordered Samuel Milstein’s cabin torn
down, has been admitted to bail. This
case is peculiar in some instances, and
shows that ignorance is no excuse for
breaking the law.
‘The judge is satisfied in his own mind
that Mr. Frye does not realize the grave-
ness o! the position he has placed bim-
self in by taking the law in his own
hands. The crime is punishable by im-
prisonment. Mr. Frye probably thousht
that he had a perfect . right to
warn @ squatter Pion ol his
pre nd then tear down his cabin
if he i not comply, but the law poles
differently. By its terms, a prope
holder must move the tenant by Sl
action. Thelaw holds that squatters
have rights as well as property owners,
and any infringment of those righte is
ikely to meet with speedy punishment.

MORRIS AND FREIL FINED.

Two Men Who Fought After Sunday’s
Ball Game in Police Court.

By fines of $15 and $25 respectively,
Mayor Scott and Magistrate Jordan,
sitting on the bench together this morn-
ing, convinced Warren Morris and
Patrick Friel that Rossland is an ex-
pensive place to settle disputes by fight-
ing. These are the two men that
fought for blood Sunday afternoon near
the ball g.ounds after the ball game was
over. Mayor Scott, who saw the fight
was disposed to give the men the full
extent of the law, but Magistrate
Jordan intervened in their behalf. Both
men paid their fine.

When Magistrate Jordan convened
court, the court room was filled with
friends of the combatants, many of
whom witnessed the fight. Warren

PLOT 10 KILL FAURE

Attempt to Assassinate the Presi.

Sunday.

BOMB WAS EXPLODED

The Mistake Has Another
Chance to Apologize for Its
“Wire”? Being Down.

The Morning Apology which claims
to publish all the press despatches did
not contain a brief mention of the plot
to assassinate President Faure of France
Sunday morning. - Following is the news
as published by other Associated Press’
papers, Monday morning:

Paris, June 13.—An attempt was
made today to assassinate Felix Faure
president of the French republic, while
he was en route to Longchamps to wit-
ness the grand prix.

While M. Faure’s carriage was pass-
ing a thicket near La Cascade restau-
‘ant in the Bois de Boulogne, a bomb,
which subsequently proved to be a
piece of tubing about six inches lorg
and two inches in diameter, witha
thickness of half an inch, charged with
powder and swan shot, exploded.

No one was injured by the explosion.
A man inthe crowd, suspectzd_as the

rime mover, was arrested. He gave
his name as Gallet and made only the
briefest replies to questions put to him
bby the police. Gallet said he had no
occupation, but resided at Lavalliers-
Perret. The police are making a thor-
ough search of his lodgings. He is be-
lieved to be insane, for he shouted as
the carriage passed along so loudly as to

I was surprised, indeed, and believe
that decided action should be taken.
I felt the disgrace keenly and Sunday or
any other day such scenes are dis-
credible to the fair name of Rossland. I
had never seen a blow struck in Ross-
land up to this time. There must be an
example made to put a stop _to such
scenes, and certainly were I on the
bench alone, I would give the full

ABOUT SCHOUL SITES.

Six Lots Near the Y Not Considered
With Favor.

The school board has been working
hard to secure a school site, but thus far
their labora have not resulted in any-
thing definite. Six lots near the Y
track have been offered the board for a
site, but for many reasons it does not
think this s desirable site. One reason
is that it is too near the railway track,
as the children would be in constant
danger of their lives. Reason two is
that the location is ina very poor part
of the town, and once again six lots were
not sufficient for proper school grounds.

‘he board desires five additional lots.
The government signified its willingness
to subscribe $4000 towards the site, but .
hinted that any more money _neede:
would have to be furnished by the city.

the best thing a town can have the
board and everybody knows. Families
before moving to a town—especially a
inining town—always inquire as to the
condition of schools, before wishing to
move. That the present school rooms
are overcrowded is a notorious fact
which no one will dispute.

ACTORS VS. PRINTERS.

The coming baseball game between
the actors and printers is looked forward
to with considerable interest. There
are a number of good players among the
typos in the city and they expect to
carry off the honors. The actors will
appear in “makeup,” but further than
the grotestque costumes worn the game
will not be burlesqued,
