Rome idea of the extent of th mineral aesources of British Columbia ean be gathered from the well-aseer. tained results of mining operations carried on since the vear 1862. There was mining at that time, especially the mining of gold, and the official computation of production begins with that year. The total production for all years up to and including the year 1911, amounts to the enormous sum of $3976808722 Of this sam gold has contributed $137.175683; sil. ver, $32,068895; lead, $25,715,126; cop- per, $656.315049; the remainder being made up by the contributions of coal, building stone, and metals such as zine. Between 1862 and 1881 the produe- tion by years has not been tabulated, but since 1891 the total production year by year is given. Of these years, 1810 still holds the record of $26.377.- 066. Last year the output was three millions less, the decrease being largely due to a falling off in the output of coal, owing to certain dis- turbances in the labor market. Last year the output of the three precious metals--gold, silver and cop- per--had a total value of $10,681 450, gold leading with a value of $5,151. 513, but copper was & close second, with a value of $4,571,644. And some say that mining has only eommenced in British Columbia, which is another way of saying that the present operations, output and profits, are small in comparison with what they will be when operations are more fully developed, when other know. deposits are worked, and when further discoveries are made. But it is not to the future that it is here proposed to look, but to the past--to the long ago time, when gold was dis- covered in British Columbis and gold 'mining commenced. . It has been stated that as early as 1862 Chief Trader McLean, of the Hudson Bay Co., when at Kamloops, procured gold-dust from the natives of the Thompson River. Respecting the truth of this statement some doubt has been expressed, and it is pointed out that three years later the same man was "singing the praises of the mines in the American terri tary, without saying a word of any in his own vicinity" --~which is held to make it quite unlikely that he knew of gold:having been found in British Columbia. Coming down four years in the his- tory of the Province, one reaches surer ground respecting the date of | date of the discovery of gold, for it is certain that in 1866 or 1857 gold was found in the crevices of rocks on the banks of the Thompson River. Hearing of the find, Chief Trader Me- Lean, of the Hudson Bay Co.. went up the river and examined the banks. Sure enough gold was "there as re- ported, and McLean promptly sent down to Fort Victoria for what he called "iron spoons to be used in dig- ging out the nuggets." These were promptly sent up to him with the instructions that he give 'as much encouragement as possible to the In. dians willing to devote their time and encrgies to that purpose." News of the discovery traveled fast, and soon reached the Pacific Coast states, which had had the gold fever ever since the days of the Californian "Forty-Miners."" Soon a party of ex- plorers and miners arrived at Vie- toria, and thence ascended the Fraser River to within a short distance of Fort Gale where they discovered Hill's Bay, which proved very rich. These miners on Hill's Bay "pan- ned out" daily from one hundred to one hundred and fifty dollars' worth of gold dust, and after a considerable quantity had been secured it was sent down to Victoria in charge of a celebrated character, "Billy" Edo an expressman, who had had much experience ¥mong the gold camps of California. As soon as it was known that gold dust was being shipped out of the camp more miners came pour- ing in, and so the gold fever spread as more gold was found. . The Rev. A. G. Morice, OM.L, in his History of the Northern Interior of British Columbia, states that "the first lot of the precious metal to leave the limits of what is now British Columbia, found fts way into San Jranchaco, where it was taken in ebruary, 1858, by the company's steamer Otter." 0 An Energetic Author. Though the chances of Sir Gilbert Parker, the member for Gravesend, Eng., are generally favored for au Under-Secretaryship in the next Un- jonist Government, it is as a novelist and not as a politician that he holds a promient position in the public eye. When amongst the political k he is a somewhat colorless individual, but in the realms of fiction he is king. Sir Gilbert Parker has hustled a trifle during the past twenty years. He is a Canadian by birth, and receiv. ed his education at Trinity College, Toronto, In his early Canadian days he hit on a method of replenishing his pocket by Jestaring, with the 'aid of a magic-lantern. Then came a period of journalistic work in Australia, when he acl as associate-editor of The Sydney Morning Herald. After travel ing round the globe he arrived in Eng- land and persuaded the free and inde- pendent electors of Gravesend, at the 1900 election, to send him to Parlia- ment as their member, and he has stuck ever since.

Not many years ago Miss May, whe is the daughter of Admiral May, of the British navy, was a frilly, frothy ety belle, to whom the theatre, balls and eard patties represented all tha: was worth living for. When the Boer war broke out and, along with scores of other aristocratic young Eng- lish women, she went to the front as nurse, her eyes were opened to the ess of the butterfly existence 1» had been leading. Upon her re- turn home she ai once entered the Swanley Agricultural College at Kent, and at the conclusion of her course amazed her former fashionable friends by becoming manager of a dairy farm, After a time she hecame working manager of another farm in Kent, where she took active charge of all the work, grain growing, vegetable gardening, and live stock. Bhe went direct from that farm to the Canadian west, to a ranch of 320 scres near the Canadian Pacific Railway, and now all English society is interested in watching her career. Not a man is employed on Miss May's entire farm. Her only companion snd helper is a Canadian girl of 18. "Go back to society again? Not for worlds," declares this former London favorite. "I would rather plow than go to the opera. I would rather plant corn than attend a pink fea and 1 much prefer currying my horses to arraying myself in an evening gown What's a butterfly society life in damp and foggy England compared to real life in bright sunshine and bracing cold?" Miss May's success had made her views on agriculture much sought after, especially among the English immigrants. Although this little English woman has sacrificed conventional feminine garb and has given up social life completely, she has lost none of the charm that made her a leader in British society circles. Her everyday costume consists of stout leather boots and leather puttees, riding breeches of heavy blue serge, a man's shirt and a shot khaki coat. When she desires to really "dress up" for special occasions, she wears a soft collar and | tie, and a peasant smock of navy blue denim, which comes to her knges and is loosely belted around her waist. | She is delightfully picturesque and' ner happy carefree laugh is a sure | cure for the blues. "I love the freedom of the life and the bigness of things here on the western prairies," she said, recently. "In England one is bound by con- 'ventions, as one's fields are girt with hedges. Here I can do as 1 choose. | I would not go back to stay under any ! consideration." The Lutheran Church, The Lutheran Church is filth among the Protestant bodies of Canada. There are about 500,000 baptized Lutherans in Canads : about 100,000 are communi- cants of the church, and 100,000 are confirmed but mot in Lutheran churches, some of them worshipping with other communions.
