EDMONTON. Alta., July 21 (Spe cial.) Hugh P. Metcalfe, explorer and prospector, who Is known in ev ery mining camp In the states of Ida ho, Washington, Oregon and Montana, also In the Boundary coutry, said on returning to Edmonto from the Par snip river district. 300 miles Inside the Arctic circle, that Important discov eries have been made In the north These include the location of depos its of galena. Iron, salt, oil, gas, as phalt and copper. "The biggest find ' of Immediate commercial value Is gold," Mr. Met- calf added. "The stuff is high grade and can be saved easily and lnex pensively. The other discoveries also are worth while, but for the present there will be little or no development on account of the lack of adequate transportation facilities. These, how ever, are bound to come In time. The next few years should see big changes In the north country." Mr. Metcalfe reported hearing of Bruce White of Spokane and his par ty of explorers, who are provisioned for a stay of two years In the north, along the Mackenzie river. He also reported hearing of several other large prospecting outfits working In side of the circle. "When the extent of the newest discoveries Is known." he said, "there will be the greatest rush that Can ada has yet seen. I predict that the coming mining boom will so far over shadow anything that has yet been attempted in the western country that people will forget all about real estate Investments and the like and turn their attention to the new In dustry." Mr Metcalfe will leave Edmonton In a few days for Spokane to meet Charles Sweeny, formerly president of the Federal company, operating ex tensive properties in the Coeur d'- - Uene dtotrlot. in northern Idaho. J. A. Weston and Hugh McDon ough returned to Edmonton on July 15 from the Omenlca river district, with Famples of copper ore taken from a ledge beyond Pine Pass, in British Columbia They were out 14 months. In the district where they prospected and staked claims the men found evi dences of gold, while Indications of copper ana iron were round every where, although the development of mining alterations, they say. must ne cessarily be delayed until railway transportation is possible. Weston discovered what promises t be a substantial deposit of copper. Claims were staked and with a few samples the men returned to Edmon ton. The outcropplngs of the copper deposit were found at the bnse of a deep gulch some two miles from the Omenica river, and while the mining operations would be easy to carry out If the country were opened up, the lack of railway transportation to the outer world at present precludes min ing on a profitable or extensive scale. Weston reports thaere are at least a score of old-time miners panning In the Omenlca district. Several have' found small bars, where, by continu ous panning they succeeded in making more than ordinary wages, but so far no large pokes have been brought outt Factory a Puff of Smoke. WINCHESTER.

(Special) Steve Melter, undefeated twirler since he came to Boise from the Spokane Northwest League team,1 got his bumps yesterday. He was hit in every inning but the first while Gor don, a Yakima pitcher from Spokane early in the summer, tightened after the fifth and did not let an Irrigator reach first. , The fifth inning looked like a dis astrous one for North Yakima. The score was three to two in favor of the Braves when Reams led with a smash over second. Friene put one close to the same spot and Gordon hit Blaus ser, filling the bases. Gordon fanned Kennedy. Clark sent a long fly to Stolke which let Reams get home and Altermatt went out, Grovers to Ful ler. That was Boise's last chance for the Irrigators went out one.two, three after that. The only double play In the game was an unexpected one In the third. Tlausser doubled and Kennedy singled into right. Stolke heaved the ball to Taylor, catching Blausser at the plate and Taylor put It back to Xetzel, re tiring Kennedy who over-ran second in his attempt to go up an additional base on the throw-in. Boise attempted a double steal In the first, after Clark's single had scored Blausser. Kennedy was on third. The throw went from catcher to second and back, blocking Ken nedy cleanly when he attempted to dash for home on It. The only stolen bases of the game were by Kennedy and Blaussed. Kennedy got his prac tically without opposition while the Braves lnflelders. kept their eyes on Blausser. Blausser's came in the fifth with a man on third, and was also unopposed as there was but one out. Taylor was caught trying to steal third in the third, inning, after his double, Netzel was caught at second In the sixth and Taylor at second in the seventh. Score: R. H. E.

The preliminary work of draft ing plans, writing specifications and making necessary surveys, they had already done. All carpentry and wood-work In buildings undergoing repairs and al terations is In charge of Professor E. P. Jackson, who has assumed the entire management. The plumbing for Science hall. Installing of the new heating plant and laying- the new mains, are under the supervision of Professor M. P. Philips and C. C. Wiltshire, who may be seen crawling out of ditches and sliding down banks to inspect and direct tho work. The extensive drainage system and the new scheme of walks and driveways, were worked out by Professor O. V. Skcl ton, professor of civil engineering, who is parsing his vacation in super- r I 1ST intending the work. He is assisted by Samuel Michael Patrick Dolan, he of football fame, who informed the press representatives that they were Just laying a few tiles aggregating twelve running miles. The landscape work involving: many changes for beautify ing the campus and facilitating com munication between different build ings is directed by Professor A. L. Peck. By means of this faculty super vision the budget for improvements is expended wholly in the purchase of material and payment of labor.
