The importanb part of the man is not cleansed. Your inward part is full of extor- tion and wickedness—The idea seems to be that t11e food which the Pharisees take into their bodies is the prod:ucb of plunder and wick- edness. Evidently many of them did not earn their living honestly. 40. Paraphrased, this verse might read; "Stupid men I Dict no't.

With conditions of 1111reet in Mex- ico becoming worse daily, and with the future clouding instead of clearing, miners from the revolu- tion -ridden republic are seeking now fields oil operation. Many of the old -camps of the United States and Canada, deserted years ago, are being rehabilitated, and many of the districts which in the. sixties were flourishing but since have fallen to decay, are now being opened up with new life and energy. British C'olumbia, which, during the time of the Civil War, and later in 1895-87, was the Mecca for minors, ie again reviving and talc- ing on new life that will undoubted- ly bear much fruit in the. course of the very near future, This is par- ticularly true of the 'Windermere district of British Columbia, long known as a lead and silver mining district. In this section there are largo deposits of low grade ore, which are now being made practic- able for cheap development for the first time, through the advent of the Canadian Pacific Railway from Golden, B.C., to Fort Steele. When the old Kootenay Central project to build from Golden to I''ort Steele was abandoned because of lack of funds, after grading for a little more than a dozen miles, many good mining propositions fell through because of lack of trans- portation facilities. The Canadian Pacific Railway took over the old Kootenay Cen- tral and is now busy connecting up Golden and Vint Steele. Trains aro operating from Golden south as far as Spillimaohene, while steel has been laid muleh farther and grading is progressing far ahead of the 'steel. Shock is being urged north from Tort Steele to Gulden, 00 that before 191e' rol le 11(011 (1 this railway project, 1(11101) w'as a• bream of the ca1r13 miners of the district, will be. a reality, with lied - class train ('0nnecti03113 from lore Steele to 111e main linee of the (T.P.R. aL Golden.

In the district from Golden to Fort Steele, through the i alley, such streams as Horse Thief Creek, Wild Horse River, and other well- known tributaries to the Culumlbia and Kootenay Rivers, are vast min- crai deposits. Some of theee have been worked and have had much capital invested in them. But the far greaten' number of the rich min- eral claims are those which are waiting fur the necessary capital and transportation facilities. About fifteen years age ,Tohn Hays Hammond and Robert Ban- dolphe Bruce started operaliors on a series of rich claims known 11.1 the Paradise Mine. Some work was done and splendid showings were ,rade. The ore was rich, hue the transportation facilities were td) poor that all of the profits were eaten up before the silver -lead got to the emelters. Pack ' traine proved too expensive, so the pro- ject was abandoned until tune should bring railroad facilities. The Paradise Mine, according to recent advices, will be re -opened in the near futtu'e. It wile in the rich valley of the C.olunmbia, however, that Robert Randolph Bruce did Make bis fortune. Along with many others he recognized -the pussibili- ties of the district, both as to its minerals and as to its agriculture. He has developed both and has wide holdings both in mining claims and in lands. Married reeentl,3' to Lady Elizabeth Nortllcute, he piens to make his. ]longe at Insert uric, where he will devote his attrition to rho development of his ,nines and his ]ands, - When connected, this rich valley of the Columbia, and Kootenay Rivers will have two outlets, one to the 111ait1 line of the (.P,13:, at Golden, .and the other to the Crow's Nest branch, through fort Steele at, Fernie.
