At another time he lay two days and two nights in an ant -beau' hole, just big enough to keep hint conceal- ed from a neighboring commando. He was accompanied by one black boy laden with oxpiosivas, tulle also had to use the same hind of shelter. The diet and tho !lard travelling were too melt for the black boy, who had open chosen for his great strength and endurance. So Burn - hem took the guncotton with which his companion was Roan and went on alone, while the boy struggled back to the British linos. When the l3ocr,, moved on, Burn- 1:ant blew ftp the railroad between I'retoria and Johannesburg, enabling the British to capture a number of engines arta cars at Johannesburg.

In Eastern Canada there is n0 conception of tho great and rapid de- velopment o-velopnieut of the coal mining indus- try in this district, says a letter from Perak, 13.0. Blore we have a prosperous and thriving town, con- nected with what is virtually an- other town up at the Coal Creek mines, and making in all about 4,- 000 people within a distance of live miles. Two other mining towns, 'v1Ll constantly increasing popula- tion, have been brought into exist- ence by the Crow's Nest Coal Com- pany at Michel and Morrissey Creek. The necessary works are under way and almost complete for the great coal output that nfust ultimately force its way foto the American mar - bet ea 5(1(111 as the completion of the (r0lv's Nest Southern Railway puts the Canadian producers in a more advantageous position. FOR A QTC1ANTIC OUTPTJT. I The scale on which operations aero carried on effectually allays all fear of a coal or coke famine in the west Ion Dither strip of the pane; ia fact, makes all timidity on that score quite ridiculous. The Canadian de- mand is now about 4(10 toles of coal I per day, and as an aggressive en -1 tianco into the market must wait on the completion of the Crow's Nest Southern Railway, the most exten- sive operations having been in de- velopment work. Much of the coal is now shipped in box cars, the load- ing of which is slow and unproRt- able, Coal cars such as aro supplied by the railways in other bituminous coal districts will probably be fur- tislhed, at an early date, which will greatly contribute to more easy and advantageous operations. Although the company can only reach the American market by the present cir- cuitous route, it has already been able to secure a trade south of the line, amounting to a greater tonnage than the Canadian consumption, but its efforts have been naturally manl- y directed towards development or preparatory work on the inmlens0 deposits that will provide a gigantic output in the immediate future.

G comecesmoinemersieto and mistakes, place the coal in the measures in the Crow's Nest Pass at tho incalculable quantity of 20,000,- 000,000 tons, That wlyuld provide for a daily output of 10,000 tons for about 6,000 years. The Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company has shown great enterprise in prep:ulna for an output commensurate with the extent of these coal measures, and more than equal to the demands of every avail- able and prospective market. There aro now 6:30 coke ovens completed, 424 at this place and 206 at Michel, the total capacity .being 1,260 tons of coke per day. Preparations have been made for t110 building of 200 additional ovens at Morrissey Creek. About half a million dollars have been expended by tho contpnny for• machinery and supplies during the past year, chiefly in Montreal, To- ronto, 'Hamilton, London, Winnipeg, Victoria, 'Vancouver, and other Can- adian business centres. Alberta is. also a large contributor of foods supplies and horses for the mines. This does not include the ordinary supplying trade of this town, which is in the hands of merchants not connected with the company. Great and rapid as the development has been it will be far exceeded when the completion of the Crow's Nest Southern Railway brings needed markets within reach. 3 BABY'S HEALTH. • The Most Precious thing in the World to a Mother. -How to Care For Little Ones. No price would be too great. to pay for the preservation of tine per- fect, rosy, sturdy health of a baby. No price would be too groat ; but, as a natter of fact, the price is very small -simply precaution and the ex- orcise of good judgment. 31 is not good judgment to give the tender, little infant; remedies containing opiates, mid the so-called "soothing" medicines, always con- tain opiates they do not cure, they only drug and Itupify the little ones. Baby's Own Tablets are guar- anteed to contain no opiates and no harmful drugs. It is the best medi- cine for the little ones, because it is promptly effective and absolutely harmless. 1'or nervousness, sleep- lessness, constipation, colic, stl,xunch troubles, the irritation accompany- ing the cutting Of teeth and other in- fantile troubles, Baby's Own Tablets is beyond question the best medicine in the world. The Tablets are sweet and pleasant to take, end dissolved in water can be given with absolute safety to the young;est infant. Moth- ers who have used this medicine for their little ones, speak of it in the most enthusiastic terms -that is the bust proof of its efficacy. iS's.
