Number of Prospects Increased One Hundred_Per Cent.

East Kootenay in the Fort Steele neighborhood is pushing its way to the front aa @ tnineral section. Dur- ing the past summer it attracted a great many prospectors and some fine locations were made. This. year the rush will be greater than ever. The progress of the country can be seen in the following figures: Up to 1895 the country was very little known aad no attempt had made to develop it. In the sumnier ot 1895 a few

Ole Olson. went out looking for trouble yesterday. He ran up against Jobn McNeill and Joe Cooper, who accommodated him up to the limit. Olson met the two in the afternoon ip the Pacific salcon and started out to do battle, but the men were separated ‘\for a time. At night while Ole was enjoying a free lunch in the Kaiser house his two opponents wan- aered in. Ole improved the oppor- tunity to pass eome remarks reflect- ing en the paternal ancestry of the two and the trouble began. It was just one short round. When Olson was pulled out from under his opponents, his face resembled that of an over- “| voiled squash. All three appeared at the police court this morning with Olson as plaintiff. McNeill was fined $20 and coste ani! Cooper was given 30 days in jail in which to reflect over the rocky path travelled by the wicked.

Furthermore, ite pretty gen- erally ugreed t'xit the Arlington is the best hotel in the Kootenayr. It is maintained for the comfort of the guests and the profit of the proprie- tora, and the latter have shrewdly figured out‘that the surest way to make maquey is to look to it most curefully that their guests are pleased.

THE POLICE COURT.

Before Magistrate Townsend this afternoon two burglary cases upon which Constable Piper has been work- ing for several days was brought to a focus. Last night the culprit was located a mile and a half from town with the stolen goods in his posses- sion. He was locked up. He was charged by Carter, the sandwich man, |with, taking two watches, a clock. butcher knives and other trinkets from his cabin. Justice Townsend sentenced him to six months at Kam- loops at hard labor. The defendant's plea was that he was intoxicated and did not know what he was doing.

The Red Oak was a relocation of an old claim and was staked a year from the day of the location instead of the day of record.
