alane last evening in the dining rooms of
Ile B. A. 0, ofli0ee. It was a farewell ban-
quet tendered by Edwin D urea n t, t he Il n a m
Wel manager of the 0orporatiu4 to John
Ferguson MoOras, who left Satardey even*
ing toe the Bast and Europe 00 an Mr.

After a reoherohe menu had been app,.
preoiativoly discussed a number of speech•
ea eulogistic of the guest of the evening
were made byahoes number oft present.
Mr. Durant, in proposing the health of
Mr, McCrae, spoke of the long and inti.
mate acquaintance he had bad with the
gentleman and the agreeable,relabioeehip
which had always existed betweeuthene-
as he was euro the same relationship had
existed between McCrae and all the other
members of the damp, He extolled Mr.
MoOrae's sooiai qualities, which he said
were only thrown into the shade by hie
capacity for busioeae. He said that Mr.
MoOras, during his residence in Roseland,
had worked untiringly for the good of
the °amp and for the good of the dom.
munity generally, and he was quite satie-
fied that Mr. MoOrae'e connect]. ne in the
East had not been among the least of the
influences whioh had brought the mining
before the
properties of British Columbia
capitalists of the older provinces. He
desired, not only to express his appeofa-
tion of what Mr. Ma0rae had done in the
past, but to voice the opinion of himself
and of many others here that bis future
efforts would stili be more productive of
good for the Kootenay.. In conjunction
with all of the other friende of Mr. Mo
Orae iu Roseland he desired to express
the hope which was always equivalent to
a certainty, that hie visit to the Eastern
money markets would result in great
benefit to him, himself, and to this dis-
trict generally. The address of Mr.
Durant was received with rounds of ap-
plause and on rising to respond, Mr. Mo -
Gras was greeted with prolonged oheere.
Mr. McCrae made a brief but apprecia•
tive reply, in the course of which he said
that he could not express the feeling of
gratification which inspired him at this
mauifeetation of good will on the part of
the citizens of Rowland. Re hoped, he
said, to be able to do for the? district all
that had been prophs.ied and if he did
not accomplish all that was anticipated it
would not be through any fault of his
own -not by reason of any want of eon.
fidenoe in the distriot, or any lank of ef-
fort to inspire those with whom he came
in contact with the same belief in the
country which he himself possessed. He
oould not, he said, in closing, refrain from
once more expressing to them the pleasure
which he experienced at the friendship
which he had always met with from all
classes of the community and at the fine
spirit of comradeebip whioh had been
shown toward him in the camp -a com-
radeship which was general in the camp
and which he thought was more genuine
perhaps, than could be found in any other
community in the Dominion.
Ex Governor Mackintosh then present-
ed Mr. MoGrae, on behalf of Mr. Durant,
the hoot
and those resent with gold
h a
brick, which, a t o
Mr.Maokintoeh said, would
be a letter of credit for him with the
capitalists of Eastern Canada ndEurope.
In presenting this, Mr. Mackintosh said
his friends had regard exclusively to the
success of his trip to the financial oentres,
but they had another testimony of their
esteem in the shape of a piece of plate
which they desired him to accept in view
of the relationship which they understood
he was shortly to enter into -a relation•
ship in which they all hoped for him
every happiness and as an abundant re.
turn to the country ae he had achieved
in hie financial ventures.
J. S. 0. Fraser, the vice-chairman, sec-
onded the address of Mr. Mackintosh in
presenting these gifts to Mr. Macrae and
made a warmly eulogistic speech in the
course of whioh he said that he, perhaps,
more than any other man in Roseland
knew Mr. McCrae, and all he knew of
him was to that gentleman'e credit. Ee
had lived with him for a long time and
understood thoroughly his mental make
up, and he would beak his capacity as
be would his morals against those of the
best man in the Province. He could not
speak too highly of Mr. McCrae from the
abgndpoint of a citizen and a man of sound
integrity and splendid social qualities.
Other speeches were madein the same
vein and the dinner was brought to a
close at 2.90 with three rounds of oheere
for the guest of the evening and the host.

dark circles under the eyes, pain in the
bank and side and all the other a000m-
panimeate of a ron•down and weakened
constitution.

defeotive circulation of the blood, with a
wanting away of the nerve forme.
