Mr. Bostock, backed by the other members of Parliament from British Columbia, has in the House of Com mons drawn attention to the improper methods adopted by some alleged-min- ing companies in order to obtain money from unwary investors. The discussion of the subject led to a statement by Mr. Laurier that the whole matter would be referred to the Minister of Justice, and if the present law is found insufficient to cause the punishment. of those who publish misstatements in prospectuses, such alteration will be efiected as will make it a. criminal oflence to lay such traps for the public. The Star was the first, and for some time the only, Eastern Canadian news- paper to expose the methods employed by promoters who did not see fit to con- fine themselves to facts. Those whose prospects of gain were injured by hav ing the truth told about their schemes were exceedingly bitter in their deuuu ciation of this paper, which was de- clared to be an enemy of British Col- umbia and 01 its mining interests. The opposite was the case, for no other jour- nal in the Dominion has stronger faith in the mineral richness of our Pacific province, and now that all the repre- sentatives of British Columbia in the House of Commons have proclaimed the necessity of stopping wildcatting, the Star’s position is fully vindicated. Irreparablc damage will be done to all legitimate enterprises if misstatements are published and bogus schemes floated and eager investors are lured into schemes where the mine may be rich, but owing to crookedness of manage- ment no development work will be done and the property probably sold for a song in the end to some confederate. Of course, all mining is more or less of a Speculation, and in many cases it is almost a lottery, but the law should be made so as to protect investors, and it should be a criminal offence to take money from thepnrchasers of stock tor the ostensible purpose of developing the mine when, as a matter of fact, the cash will go into the pockets of promoters. '1‘0’prevent this a law might be so framed that all prospectuses and adver- tisements should state the purpose for which the money realized shall be used, and if the funds be not used for develop ment purposes when it was declared that such was the object of the subscrip tion, those misapplying the money should be sent to the penitentiary. If soarethiug of this sort. is not done the whole mining proposition, as far as the floating of companies is concerned, will be utterly discredited before British Columbia has so established its reputa- tion as a rich mining center that it, Cull stand the pressure of having been used as a bait to catch “suckers” in tho Bashâ€"Toronto Star. o--o The Lumber Market. Lumbering operations in Canada this winter will be unusually quit-t, and all on account of the Presidential elections across the line. Up 'n the woods, where thousands of men generally find employ- ment, business is at a standstill because a certain uncertainty exists over the monetary standard to be adopted in the States. Up to the present time there has been only about one-half the usual number of men hired for the lumber camps that have been employed in for- mer years, so that the outlook for many poor families who depend on this indus- try for the winter months is not encour- aging. The reason of this great change in the Canadian lumber trade is mainly due to the lack of demand from the American market. The silver question ! on the other side has made lumbermen shy of buying in any large quantities until the money question is settled. The English market has been the salvo , tion of the Canadian dealers, and had it. ‘ not been for this trade this season'there would probably have been very little done in the woods this year at. all. Although the general trade has been1 very «lull therehns been a great demand for square timber. This year's output will greatlycxceed that of last year.-â€"â€"â€". Ottawa Free Press. 0. Walter D. Wellmao, a San Francisco NO. Risk Nothing on the Names. Eminent members of professions which have nothing whatever to do with mining ought to keep off the directorate of mining companies. And investors should not stake their money on the high standing of a doctor or a lawyer or a clergyman whose name shines in a list. of directors. A mining company is no weaker because its directors are un- kuown men, and no stronger because is directors are well~known men. Some enterprises have succeeded in spite of the obscurity of their directors. and some enterprises have failed in spite of the eminence of their directors. Dot-r tors, lawyers and clertnnen are proverb- ially ill acquainted with anything ott- side their own business. The fact that a hard-headed business man of slulltlltl: is on the directorate of a mining com puny is evidence that he thinks there is something in it for him. But the peo» ple who rush into any cotnpttny.because an eminent doctor or a distinguishel lawyer or a zealous clergyman is on the board of directors, are following people who know less about business than they do themselves.â€"- Toronto Telegram. ¢-v Will Preach Buddha. NEW YORK, Sept 17. â€" The most picturesque passenger on the steamship Nzw York, which arrived yesterday, was a priest. of Buddha, ll. Dharuiap- ala, who comes from East. India, with messages of love and peace from Buddha for the people of America. Mr. Dhnu mapala was attired in a mauve coat, bluo leg coverings, red morocco leather shoes, a flowing robe of deep yellow and a miux skin turban. lie is tall and stately, and his swat-thy skin contrasts strikingly with the bright hues of his garments. He stands over six feet, and generally in appearance is a magnificent. specimen of Asiatic manhood. Explain- ing the object of his visit, be said : “ I come here with a message of love and peace from the people of India to those of the United States; a message from the great. teacher of compassion, Buddha, whose doctrines I am going to preach to those who wishto hear them from one of the great teacher’s devout followers. I am not coming here to make converts. My desire is to bring about a more harmonious feeling among the different branches of the faitltlul." o- Ontario’s Mines. A feature of the mining boom that is strikingr Canada is that while British Columbia minin;r stocks are now quoted and traded in, nothing has been heard of Ontario mines in the same way. If any one desires shares in the mines 05 the province, he has to go direct. to the shareholders and then, as a rule, cannot get them. The truth is that Otlltll'lu possesses mineral deposits which, white their “ immensity is not indicated by the size ol the mountains," have re- warded those who have developed them with greater returns in propirtiou to the outlay titan any British Columbia mine. This is proved by the ollitinl statistics. The fact that people cannot pick up shares which are paddled in the market is another pretty sure indication of their value. People do not' sell or give away a good thingâ€" Toronto Star. I -â€"â€"â€"-â€"-â€"-â€"â€"o+ oâ€"â€"â€"â€" -â€" -.â€" ~ In a Lion’s Grip.

One of the most inter- esting feats is when one of the trainers. Alexis Canoz. enters the lion's den and has a wrestling match with the lien. "io far the feat has been performed sne- cessl'ully, but this afternoon the line was in an uglyfmood, and no sooner had it put. its paws over Cannz's neck than it sunk its claws into the back of the man's neck and gave him a bug that made him black and blue in the face. The lion then sunk his teeth into Canoz's neck. By this time the other attend- ants were aroused and they bclnbored the lion with an iron her until he let gt his hold. Canoz, who was almost faint- book-keeper, has succeeded in writing , lug, made his escape from the cage. 7.069 words on an ordinary postal card l lie was removed to the gamma] hospital.
