THREE NATIONS VISIT Will Install Stamp Mill and Com- pressor Plant on Property- Immediately DIRECTORS OF THE On Friday night a number of di- rectors and others holding interests in the Three Nations mine arrived by train from Montreal. amongst them being Euclide Roy. president. G. Sorgins, vice-pres. D. Kochen- burger. man. din. D. Roy, sec-treas.. J. Lupine. J. O. Pilon. (l. Lemire. V. Camel. C. Perrae. J. C. Labelle, J. R. Souther, 8. Rice. H. Bertrand, Dr. and Wrs. Barrette and Mrs. D. Roy. After partaking of a lunch the party retired for the night. On Sat- urday the whole of the excursionists, among whom were several ladies. were taken over the ,mines and then in the bucket to the loo-loot level. The ladies. .donning a complete suit of miners' working clothes and fear- lessly entering the bucket, were low- cred. The visitors were conducted through the workings and were de- lighted with all they saw, each one bringing to the surface with them a souvenir in the shape of a piece 0! quartz with free gold showing there- on. Several others retained samples with free gold they had collected of! the dump. On Sunday several of the party paid a visit to the Hughes and the IIIMHHIIUNII IBM" SMITH PflflBUPINE STBUBK BflflfllI WUMAN' BASEBMl PHH’ABMIHNS MP5. [38W Walking 0" 53""? Members Iurn 0th and BIear-up Track as Train Iravelled on g grounds---ufiicers Were Had Marvellous Escape Elected for Season What was considered by those who were eye witnesses to be a marvel- ous escape from either (loath or ter- rihie injuries occurred Wednesday morning just after the Cobalt spe- cial coming north had pulled out of Cobalt. The train had gathered up a speed l of something round 20 miles an hour 3 and had just passed the crossing at} the head of Lang street when Engi-T neer Shaw noticed a woman on the; track ahead and walking in the same 1 direction as the train. He gave ai warning whistle and the pedestriani stepped out of the track on which; the train was travelling. Thinking; she was quite safe the engineer pro? ceeded. but the woman again step« pcd into the track and despite all efforts to avoid her either the bufier of the engine or the cylinder at the side caught the woman on the left shoulder. The train was pulled up in a very short distance and Oficer Fred Lets- bvre of the T. 8: N. 0., Provincial Oflicers J. McKay and J. [Jefebvre and others rushed to her assistance. It was then ascertained from the wo- man herself, who was sufiering from shock, that her name was Mrs. Car- son of Lang street, she being an elâ€" derly lady of about 50 years. The full extent of her injuries were not learned at the time, but it was thought her shoulder was either dis- located or her arm broken. A doctor was sent for and Mrs. Carson removed to her home. (.‘on- trary to reports circulated that she was fatally hurt it should be point- ed out that Mrs. Carson was not at all unconscious and in explana- tion of the accident said she thought she was on a clear track and out of the Way of the train. Vol. I. No. 10 This being the first time some of them had been in Porcupine they were favorably impressed and ex- pressed grest confidence in the camp. It is decided to at once install n stamp mill and compressor plant. as the ore bodies continue to show grezyt values. and this bids fair to become one of the richest properties in the township of Whitney. Hollinger properties. while others vi- sited the towns at the north and south end of the lake and were sur- prised and impressed by the rich samples they saw. both at their own and other mines they visited. On Sunday a large number of peo- ple from Timmins called on Mr. Soguin. the local agent of the Three Nations mine, and were by him con- ducted to the property, where they were received by M. S. Roy and M. Angrignon, the manager. Amongst the party were F. H. Sangster and daughter, L. Martin, Mr.,and Mrs. P. Martin. Miss E. Martin, J. Char- ron. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Meyers, 1". Lefebvre, Geo. McGowan. D. King and Mrs. Seguin. The party spent a most anoyable day and returned in high spxrxtq to supper, which was served at thg Bank Hotel. I I The firemen were. called out Tues- (lav afternoon for a chimnev fire in 2 P. McCaffery’ 5 house but no damage '3 xx as done. The South l’orcupine Baseball Club for the present season has been re- organized and there is every indica- tion that hearty support will be giv- en the organization. A meeting had been called for last Saturday even- ing, but at the time appointed for a commencement it was found that the number who turned up at the Town» site ollices was so small it would hardly be advisable to proceed to business. Accordingly an adjourn- ment was made till a later date. With these additions it was decided to return and carry on the meeting. Mr. George Rounds occupied the chair and the first procedure was the election of officers for the ensuing year, which resulted as follows: Hon. President, C. H. Moore; President, A. C. Brown; Vice-President, Fred Watt; 2nd Vice-President, Wm. Lyons; Secretary-'I‘reasurer, J. M. McGill; Manager, George Rounds. One of the most important points in business which followed related to the clearing of the ball ground, and it was decided that yesterday after- noon be devoted by as many as pos- sible for this purpose. Some who apparently were, anxious to see the work proceed were on the scene Wed- nesday with the aid of dynamite and succeeded in carrying out quite ex- tensive efforts. It is expected that matches will be arranged at an early date with local opposition teams, but just as to what days of the week will see these carried out remains to be decided upon later. SOUTH PORCUPINE. ONTARIO. CANADA. FRIDAY. MAY 'PHUSPEBWHS fflllM MASSEV HISM’PUINIEB local Men Who Went to Whiskey lake Return Almost Immediately Whether the quite recent rush to the Massey district on account of the reported gold discoveries at Whiskey Lake will be followed up with any extensive results may probably be decided sooner than most prospectors imagine. The last news to be gathered from outcoming investigators is to the el- (ect that the reports and rush are not warranted. Jack Miller took in a party a short time ago. as did al- so Leo Earnhouse. They all return- ed this week and it was to Roht. Gamble of South Porcupine that the above information was extended. In fact the conductors of the parties felt considerable chagrin at having taken in their respective crowds ow- ing to the disappointing results in (ace of such reports as were given out. In three days 29 prospectors returned from the Malsey district, eVery one apparently being satisfied that further spending of time there was useless. .I. T. Lawn, who formerly con- trolled the New Arlington at Golden City, has opened up the Lawn House at Timmins and will carry on the catering business in the very best possible way. COL.

Speaking of other properties Mr. Gamble was most enthusiastic in his expressions of opinion and predicts success for several with which he came in contact. The (ioaslein property has been placed under option to a Detroit syn- dicate for a sum around $330,000. On this property. according to Mr. Gamble. there are about 36 men bus- ily ens-aged, having sunk one shaft 50‘.feet, while it is the intention to proceed with the sinking of other two in order to prove up the claims. They came across gold which was very spectacular all the way down the shaft.

Stevenson has been in Porcupine looking over the camp for his company and the Pennsylvania railroad interests. D'ur- ing that time their representatives have gained an insight into a large number of the properties and the Pearl Lake was the first one that n they ever attempted to mance in Porcupine. The deal whereby the controlling interest was purchased from the Cartwright's who up to a month ago had financed the mine, is one of the biggest that has been launched in the gold camp for some time and the fact that the new in- terests start off with a treasury con- taining $250,000 should mean the ad- vanced development of the Pearl Lake during the next few months.

Jupiter Mines showed that company to he in as good shape financially as the mine is physically. Since the llrumtuontls obtained con- trol of the property little or no news has been giVen out officially from the mine; that was the policy of the company. It was known in camp that deVelopmonts were more than justifying the money spent on the property but no precise details were giVen and therefore it is grati- fying to have in a report by R. W. lirigstoeke, who is nothing if not conservative. information which proves that the property is a mine, the size of it to be determined by future development but still a mine. There is little doubt that if develop- ments are as favorable throughout will be contemplated before the year is out. A very satisfactory statement of affairs and of mine conditions was presented at the annual meeting of “Jupiter Mines, Limited," held in Toronto last week. The financial statement was as iollowa: Assetsâ€"Cash, $16,137.36; supplies, $3,084.84; discount on shares, $702,- 666; value of mining property, in- cluding construction account and mining development, $106,703.20; general expenses, $36,406.47; mining property, consisting of cash and ful- ly paid shares, $800,000; total, $1,- (304,117.87.

What is claimed as the first house dance in South Porcupine and prob- ably one that has not yet been ex- celled in enjoyment and success was held at the home of Mr. and'Mrs. A. C. Brown on Main street Wakes-Ida}; evening. 'I‘he large partition separating the front and adjacent room was remov- ed and an excellently prepared floor for dancing prepared, there being room for about a dozen partners at once. Music was provided by the Moran and Bates orchestra and at midnight a dainty supper was par- taken of, the duties of hostess on the part of Mrs Brown being light- ened by the assistam'e of Mrs. W11- er. A trio of well known badmlors in Messrs. G. Wilson, ll. chuin and R. Southee were commandcred to wait on the guests and their abili- ties were voted as truly professional and most creditable. The function broke up in the early hours: of morn- ing with expressions: of delight at the delightful time spent. Those present were Mr..and Mrs. Accompanying the financial etnto- mom was a report on mine condi- tion by R. W. Brigstock, mine man- ager and consulting.cngineer,. which showed 660 feet of shaft~ainking and 2,347 [wt of crosscutting and drift.- ing accomplished in the nine months [ye-rind. This worlt was carried out on two series oi veins, and it is said that payable ore was louml in all po- sitions in these workings. In No. 1 series the veins were opened up at the .30. 100 and 200 foot levels. while .\'u. L! ~eries of veins have been open- ed up at 100, 200 and 300 foot lev- els. In the No. 1 series assays oi samples cut across the vein, which is three feet wide‘ have given in many instances extraordinary re- sults. Excluding these high values, a fair average is stated to be $20 to President H. J. Hamilton of Drum- mond, McCall 00.. in moving the ‘ adoption of the annual report, stated that no part of the capital embark- ul in the company's Venture for pur- ‘ehuse “1' development was obtained in the share market, nm' was there any intention of an appeal for that.
