they found, however, that the price

Within the next sixty hours the

the dip changed, work was contin-

sequence the vein is now north of

cut is heavily mineralized. It will

Arrangements Made to Handle Its Ore:
at Northport.

$2.50 PER UNIT FOR COPPER

Stoping to Be Pushed and Ore Sent Regu-
larly—With a $4.50 Freight and Treat—
ment Rate Profits Nearly Doubled.

The Coxey, on Red mountain,
owned by the Montreal Gold Fields,
will soon join the shipping list. The
recent development has opened
much medium grade gold-copper -
ore and arrangements have been
made to handle a part of it at the
Northport smelter. The manager
of the Northport works, James
Breen,has given a freight and treat-
ment rate of $4.50 per ton from
Rossland, on the liberal basis of
$2.50 per unit for copper and 95%.
of the gold and silver values.

The importance of such a rate
can best be app~eciated when com--
pared with the old Heinze rate of:
$rr per ton freight and treatment,.
with Sr per unit paid for copper.

If the ore carries $20 in gold, one
ounce in silver and 3.3% in copper,
the parative smelting ct
would be as shown below. In each
case 1.3% copper is deducted by the
smelter, so that copper assaying
3-3% is actually paid for as running
2%.
Here are the figures:

HEINZE RATE, +
Gold, 85 per cent. of $20.

Silver, 85 per cent. of 60e!
Copper. 2 per cent. at $1.

Gold, 95 per cent. of $20.
Silver, 95 per cent. of 0c
Copper. # percent. at $2.60.

As the tables show, ore which
paid only $10.57 net profit at the?
Heinze rates, now yields almost
twice that amount, or $20.07, when
handled at the Nerthport smelter.

NEW EAGLES IN TOWN.
‘Two Tame Ones Have Been Brought.
Over from Brooklyn.

Messrs. Macdonald & Murchison:
this morning received a consign--
ment of two black eagles that were
captured in their nests near Brook—
lyn some time ago. They are about.

.|a year old and are as tame as can

be. They will be exhibited for a
day or twointhe window of the
firm’s saloon.

TO PROVIDE OPERATING Rooms.
Sisters? Fair (Vill Go to Help Hospital
Improvements,

The new operating: rooms to be
added upon the Sisters’ hospital will
be among the finest in the west.
Every sanitary device known will
be utized, and the precautions
takon will make it as nearly aseptic °
as modern science will permit.

The operating room proder. will
be eighteen feet square, with
windows on three sides, and large
skylights for giving all the light
needed in delicate’ surgery. The
floor will be of tiles and the. walls
of cement, so that the whole interior
surface can be thoroughly cleansed.
Off the main room will be dressing,
preparing and consultation rooms.
The coming fair to be given by
the Sisters on November 14th, 15th
