AIRTHGHT LRPAGHM ED 0DD ANO INTERESTING NAMES GIVEN TD THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Recently there has 0r<mn up a prac- wild cat, but a good mine can go by tise of coining names for mines, very any name.‘‘ . often the name being a combnation ot! parts of the name of two or three or PERENNIAL FLOWER SHOW more interested in the venture. In: HELD AT NEW LISKEARD the last issue of The Northern Miner| there was an article on the origin of| \tl‘“ Hox‘t‘u-)uitmal Socieâ€" mine names. The Miner says. |t‘ }’ anned 'TO hOld a ‘*Peony and Ins t (m Lo k uw Ts ui Il Ju Ln.“\ a4 ‘‘Speaking of names, the average person who glances through a mining handbook must be puzzled by the arâ€" ray of manufactured, geographical, personal, classical and fanciful names. The nomenclature of business is monoâ€" tonously prosaic; of the race track, affectionate and supersitious; of the movies, catchy; but the nomenelature of mining is as variable as a dozen factors, including the personal eleâ€" ment, can make it. The oldâ€" fashioned prospector had a foundness for weird names. As a good example of this we quote the following from the Barâ€" stow (Cal.) Times. ‘*Bill Jarrett has just returner to Barstow from the Death Valley country. â€" Bill worked for six weeks on the graveyard shift for the Corpse Mining Company in the Coffin Mine, located in Dead Man‘s Canyon Funeral Range at the end of Death Valley. Bill is leav:ng next week for a prospecting trip to the Devil‘s Playground in Hell‘s Halt Acro."‘ ‘‘Luck plays a big part in the namâ€" ing of mines, For instance, the preâ€" sent market favourite was christened No canda.‘‘ A printer‘s error made the name ‘‘Noranda.‘‘ A group of prospectors going into the Northern Manitoba district fund;‘s clearing and beside it back copy of a magaiine.

Big corporations, when labelling some property, are likely to pick a dignified title; a tenâ€" derfoot prospector naming his first strike is inclined to be more original. Cripple Creek produced a dlstlnctlve collection of names. W . 8. Stratton, the camp‘s first millionaire, showed a preference for American patriotic names. These are the names of some of his mines and claims: ‘‘Indepenâ€" dence,"‘‘ ‘*Washington,"‘‘ ‘*Plymouth Rock,‘‘ ‘*‘American Eagie,‘‘ ‘‘Abe Lincoln,‘‘ ‘*‘Jefferson,"‘ ‘*White House,"‘ ‘‘Yankee Girl,‘‘ and ‘‘Madiâ€" ‘*‘The practice of coining names is common among Canadian promoters. ‘‘Coniagas,"‘* coined from the chemiâ€" cal symbols for cobalt, nickel, silver and arsenic, is a good example. Conâ€" iaurum adds gold. So also is ‘‘Riâ€" ‘bago‘‘ coined from Richardson, Bagâ€" have little mining license to apply the word. ‘ New Liskeard Horticulitural Socieâ€" ty planned to hold a ‘*Peony and Iris Show‘‘ recently but when the chosen day arrived, it was found that on acâ€" l(,ount of the wet weather the peonies | were not in flower. Rather than disâ€" appoint the public the comumittee proceeded to nut on a ‘*‘Perennial Show.*"* This show on a day in June in this Nonth Land is worthy of mention. â€" The New Liskeard Speaker |\in reporting the event says :â€" \ _""Irises were there in abundance and iin every shade of colouring. Mention is made of one iris in particular, which was brought in by Mrs. J. Welbourne |of Uno Park. It was the flower from a two year old plant, grown from the | seed of the wild i iris, or common blue shaw and Gordon. Bagamac is Bagâ€" shaw, Gamble and MeCuaig. The Viâ€" pond got its name from Vivian Pond. ‘*The mining laws in the different provinces have an effect on mining names. In Ontario and Quebec claims are simply recorded by numbers and the naming in many cases is left to the company promoters; in Manitoba, claims have to be named and the poosâ€" pectors have a chance to use their inâ€" genuity. Another inluence which may be counted is the stock market board. An obvious explanation of the popuâ€" larity of some stocks is the fact that they come around the head of the list on the broker‘s boards. ‘(‘Care must be taken in naming flag. The flower, a little more open than the usual garden iris, was a perâ€" fect specimen and very dainty it lookâ€" ed in its container, a black vase. The peonies were in the minority, as the early varieties were nearly over, and the later ones hardly ready, there having been so little sunshine. Two arieties of single peonies were shown. Lupines, Oriental Poppies, Columâ€" bine, Aqmle«rla, Pyretheum and lemon lilies.. Pansies were in profusion. One spray of orange lily and a bunch of the common pinks were specially brought in from Hanbury. _ Some three hundred and twentyâ€" five people visited the show during the day. The ‘*Annual‘‘ show will follow the ‘‘Perâ€" ennial,‘‘ some time in August, if posâ€" sible.‘‘ The North Bay Nugget in its column of notes from its fyles of fifteen years ago says:â€"‘‘The magazine at the Pearl Lake mine, T:immins, conâ€" taining fifty cases of dynamite, exâ€" ploded with a roar yesterday afterâ€" noon, shaking Schumacher and Timâ€" mins and frightening the inhabitants.
