With Nelson Bennett a president, have secured a large tract of coal lard in the Nicola Valley, British J Columbia, in all, 2560 acre?, or four full sections, with five large seams of coal known to underlay the land, and containing over 100.000.000 tons of the highest grade of Bituminous Coal that has been found in the Northwest. It makes tbe finest and best coke in the world, and for teani and domestic purposes there is no better coal pro- y duced in the country. The coal is situated in Southern British Columbia, about 160 miles east of Vancouver, J British Columbia and from New Whatcom and Bellingham Bay points. The Canadian Pf cific Railroad and the W Great Northern Railroad are now both ready to construct and extend their lines into the Nicola coal field and will 9 be there this vear.

Today the stock is worth $125 per share; it ad advanced from 10c to $36 in two years. And it is safe to say that the Nicola Coal offers today just as good chance to the investor as did the Crow's Nest in 1896.
