SILICOSIS NOT SO BAD AS THOUGHT AT FIRST NEW GOLD FIELD FOUND IN NORTHERN QUEBEC The public interest is again being directed to Northwestern Quebec, where a new gold field is in the makâ€" ing. _ Apparently â€"the Kirkland Lake belt carries through Quebec and it is on this belt that the Duparquet Minâ€" ing Company are meeting with such success. Their geological formation is strikingly similar to Teckâ€"Hughes and Lake Shore, but with the advanâ€" tage that there is little overburder and ore is found near the surface. Since early last fall a great deal of work has been done, trenching, digâ€" ging, test pits and putting down a prospect shaft, and the company has now seven major gold discoveries with assays running from $14.50 to $50.00 per ton in gold, and the propect shaft, which is down to fifty feet, has given assays at five foot intervals from $11.20 to $25.60 in gold per ton. At a depth of 35 feet visible gold was found and it continued to the bottom of the shaft, but in samples taken for assay this visible gold was removed. _ The directors are very well satisfied with the progress that has been made and have decided to send in a portable equipment to the property and to comâ€" mence putting down a two compartâ€" ment shaft, without diamond drilling, as the engineer considers this would only be unnecessary. expense, which could be more advantageously used in putting in permanent works, because of the advanced condition of the operâ€" ations. â€"The board of directors is constitutâ€" ed of a blending of mining, business and legal men, composed of the followâ€" ing: Lieut.â€"Col.

The first glimpse of the spider was naturâ€" ally upsetting, (but it did not take very dong for the staff to 1'0(‘0\'(‘1" from the first start and make efforts to capture the insect. Eventually it was secured in a glass jar, living for several hours. The jar was placedl on exhibition in the window of the Dominion Stores and attracted veryl consideraible attention. To most peoâ€" ple it was probably the largest spider that they had ever seen. The insect indeed was so large that some hesiâ€" tated about calling it an insect, thinkâ€" ing that its size entitled it more to the name, ‘‘animal.‘‘ One boy seeâ€" ing it exclaimed, ‘‘Gee! ain‘t it a bird!‘‘ One lady called it a ‘‘horrid beast.‘‘ It certainly was “horrid”| in its looks even if ‘‘beast‘‘ were a misnomer. The spider had a body with a diameter of about an inch and a half while its legs were about three inches in length. People who affected to know say it was not a poisonous species, though looking u.t! it few would tke a chance. It is said to be what is usually known as a, banana spider, though about doublel the size of the ordinary spider of this: kind. In any case it was not one of. the tarantula, the spider whose bite was at one time supposed to ‘be fatal and yet is recognized as being danâ€" gerous. There used to be all sorts of wild stories about the tarantula, one of these stories being that it caused the victim to shake and dance dn a peculiar involuntary manner. The spider found here is said to be a type ‘commonly found in tropical countries where bananas grow and are stored. ~ The chief points about the specimen found here are its unusual size, and the fact that seldom does this type of spider survive the long journey frm its tropical home to this country. _ The spider was taken to the school where the teachers explained to the pupils interesting facts about its home and habits. Mail and Empire:â€"Attention is beâ€" ing drawn to the suicide of a young Iunvhsh emigrant working as a farm hand near Teeswater. It calls for a thorough investigation.

It is quite possible should the china clay prove to be of sufficient: quantity and the requisite quality to add another industry to Kapuskasing in the manufacture of book paper, as china clay enters largeâ€" ly into the manufacture of book paper.

The deâ€" livered cost of the clay to their Wisâ€" consin Mills is stated to be between $14.00 ard $17.00 per ton.
