forest to procuro tho raw material
required in their various enterprises.
Under tho shining bosom of the lovely
bay of Nannimo, on Vancouver Inland, i
tlio workings of tho mines extend for j
miles, nnd hundreds of men descend tho '
shaft day after day and night after night
to find tho coal nnd iron which form tho
cargoes of thoso masted ships for sea
Bailing nwny over tho rippling waters.
An inspection of tho work going on
under nen nnd land cannot fail to provo
Interesting. On nrriving at tlio mouth
of tho pit n littlo lamp will bo put into
your hand, nnd you will enter a rudo
kind of clevntor witli tho hides entirely
open nnd unprotected. At tho sound of
tho gong you seed down tho narrow
shaft, dowu Into darkness and dampness
nnd cold, dropping uncomfortably till
you feel a contraction of tho heart, which
you overcomo only when, with a sigh of
relief, you find yourself nt last on solid
ground. Hoarding n train of narrow,
open trucks, you catcli a dim outlino of
n inuio nt tho other end of tlio cars, nnd
you nro whisked along down lovcls and
slopes, twisting and spinning through
tho dark corridors and lubyrinthino gal
leries, until you nro lost in n mazo of ex
citement, iou bco scores of men nround
you at work in n variety of methods and
attitudes which you can only faintly
comprehend. Thoy pop up frotu n holo
hero nnd nn nvenuo thcro nnd dis
appear again suddenly llko fleeting
spirits. Tlicro nro immenso furnaces
which you nro content to view
from n respectful distance, and ns tho
black faced and Btrong armed miners
movo to ana Iro, you reel an inrttshing
admiration for their nobio toll ami
manly endurance. You visit tho stables
nnd cannot resist tho pathos of tho scene
when you look ujion tho jioor, dumb
animals for whom tho pit is n living
tomb, for they nover beo tlio upper
world again onco they have been brought
down to work in tlio mine. With a
thousand indistinct impressions you pre
fer to ascend, and after an upward jour
ney, which gives riso to no unpleasant
sensations, you regain onco moro your
footing on tho earth abovo and feci n
thrill of energy nnd gladness in tlio fresh
nir and all the sights and sounds of tho
open day.
No greater contrast to tho scenes wo
Iiavo left behind us in tlio mt.ie could bo
imagined than those which wo behold in
visiting ono of tho many logging camps
which aro planted along tlio coast near
tho new city of Vancouver. You start
from hero in n littlo steamship which
takes you through a perfect fairyland
of natural beauty, through channels nnd
creeks nnd bays, with littlo green
islands, llko emeralds lloating in liquid
Bapphiro. You nro in full view of tlio
purple mountains shadowing tho har
bor, nnd tho oyo wunuers from
tho water to somo rugged pro
montory in tho foreground, or
bo mo snowy jienk beyond, until you
penetrate a glado of tlio forest and find
yourself nt last in tho camp. Hero by
tho sido of a cool and gurgling rivulet
tho lumbermen havo erected their cozy
plank huts, where they gather in tlio
evening, when tho day s work is done,
to cat a hearty supper for which venison
nr' 'war, grouse, salmon nnd trout havo
bcuii laid under contribution, and to spin
tho winding yarn and crack tho merry
joko round tho blazing log flro. What

Somo thirty men aro camping hero, but
of these only two or threo work at tho
ax. Tho giants of tho forest aro not bo
easily conquered nnd drawn homo at tlio
wugon wheels of tho woodsman ns many
people may Imagine. In starting n
camp the llrst requirement is to build n
road. Thin does not mean just clear
ing a track of a few stumps and
brushwood, but tho formation of
n road over which heavy logs,
sometimes thirteen or fourteen feet
in diameter nnd u hundred feet long,
mny bo brought down to tho coast.
This is accomplished in tlio first place by
a gang of swampers, who go ahead nnd
clear tlio way of all obstructions. They
nro followed by tho skiddcrs, who an
swer to Bcction men on a railroad and
'aro constantly nt work making nnd re
pairing tho roads. Tho logging road is
mado with logs about twelve inches in
diameter, places about nino feet apart.
Tho roads nnd their various branches are
mado to follow the ground so us to ce
euro a gradual Incline to tho water. Tho
logger, with nx in hand, docs not stand

slsts in placing ilium 011 1110 roan, una

block and an ox team of eight or ten
oxen. Ono end of tho cablo is fastened
to a .rco or htump, at tho 1 ight nuglo on
the opposite sido
of thu road. Tho
snatch block is then fastened to
tho trunk, tlio oxen pull upon
tlio block and by this Immenso
lorcrago tho trunk 13 drawn Mid placed
upon the road. A load of several trunks
la then made up, the oxen nre chained to
tho load, and in this manner some 0,000
to 8,000 feet of lumber ntn time is hauled
down to water. Here a boom Is formed
of, perlwps, 600,000 feet of It, and, being
hitched to n steamer, Is towod to tho
jawing end planing mill for which it is
destined. Hero tho logs nro krnnled in n
water inclosuro, specially ndnpted to ro
ccivo thiim, till thoy nro wanted. When
. thoy are, you sco men with long poles
hopping over tho water from log to log,

iucllnonudou to 11 platform nliovo, where
it is quickly caught again by n ready
chain mid swung upon tho execution car
riage At thlsHtngo tho log is securely
placed in irons so that it cannot movo or
struggle in tho coming ordeal. Tho
gauge of tho steam saw is net. nnd at n
signal tho carriage moves Uxiuitfldcndly

nnd this ingenious operation is rcentcil
threo times till nil four sides nro square.
, Tho gaugo is then set to tho required
thickness and again tho carriage passes
up tho track, this tlmo depositing n
' squared and massive piece of timlier on
tho rollers beyond. Iheso rollers tnko

what is called tho gang saw, a contriv

log is caught up in tho water nt ono end
of tho mill, it emerges n't the other cut
into boards, of varying width nnd thick
ness, nnd is carted olf by thu yard hands
to bo piled or shipped as required.
A visit to tho canneries of tho Froser
river is sulllcient to disiiel thu prejudlco
so commonly entertained against canned
fish, for everything connected with tho
process of canning is mado nnd kept us
clean ns the contents of a model dairy.
Tho whole Htretch of this noblo river,
near tho city of New Westminister, is
dotted hero nnd tlicro with busy Usher
men in their skiffs nnd boats anil canoes,
whilst tho Indian encampments, with
their wliito tents nnd rugged shanties

spin down tho river in tho golden
Bunyner time, tho forests on its banks
show their brightest tints nnd tlio wldo
extended branches of tho trees nro re
flected in tho placid water. Tho steam
launch gently cuts Its way through tho
parting waves, and though you welcomo
each viow with eager admiration, over
nnu anon you turn round to cntcli an
other glimpse of thoso you havo left bo
hind you. At length tho littlo voyage is
over and you nro niongsido tho wharf,
whero a beautiful sight awaits you. Tho
last boat has just como in and is dis
charging its shining freight, nnd on tlio
landing nre carefully arranged in long
rows somu 'J.OOOof the II nest salmon that

fish aro transferred to tho landing
stage, thence to tho counting platform,
from which they pass, ono by ono, into
tho hands of tho splitter, usually a China
man, whoso duty it Is to split them open,
and remove tho entrails, head, tall nnu

will slit as many as i),000 in 11 day. Tlio

whero thoy aro received by other hands,
nnd subjected to n thorough cleansing
nnd rinsing by clean and sparkling wntcr,

exactly ono iound and four ounces.
Tlio various processes employed in

The sound cans pass on to tho boiling

they remain for an hour and upward,
according to tho slzo of tho fish,
and till tho entire contents of tlio can

An Intrrcatliig I'oUcr Ktory with an Ab

Thoy wero sitting hi n hotel corridor, nnd
an old man, who spoko In nn Intense but de
liberate manlier, was tolling of n great pokor1
Rnnio. Aa tlio story went on Ills llttotier
draw tholr chairs closer nround tho nan ntor.
Evory man wis loaning forward witli nn
eager glitter In Ida oyo. Half smoked clg'in
foil unnoticed totholloor. Tlicro was scarcely
n movement hi tlio littlo Rroup.
Tho old ninu was evidently n master at
story tolling. Ho had been, too, If one might
judgo by his lively description of tlio paino
which ho was describing, nn expert player
himself. Ho began with tho beginning of the
Jackpot, went carefully over the deal, the
draw and tho preliminary betting. And
whou ho got to tho first liet of tlio ojienor
tliero was 11 breathless slleuco around hhn,
sjivo for his quiet, measured tones, as ho told
of the gniiio. Tlio gmno, as ho described It,
had boon played In a train and ho had boon a
wltnoss of It,
"John," ho said, tilting lilt chair back a
littlo and then causing it to sway with a
rhythmic motion of his body, "bet f20.
Tho man next to him ran his cards over com
pletely nnd raised him &0. Tho uoxt man
saw tlio raise. John raised $100 again. The
next man ngulu run his cards over carefully,
placed a crisp $100 nolo 011 tho tablo, hesitat
ed a moment uud then, adding auothorono
to it, pushed thorn both into tho ot without
n word. Tho third man laid down his cards,
leaving John to bet uoxt. Ho saw tho rnlso
and placed $1,000 bosido It, whistling softly
to himself. Ills opioiiont luld dowu his
cards ami pulled u long iockotbook from his
ocket. Ho took out a roll of bills and
counted ttioui over very deliberately. Then
ho picked up Ills cards and run them over
again. His faco was pale, but calm. He
tuild nothing."
,Thero was an lutonso strain in tho absorbed
slleuco of tho group now, Tlio man drew a
long breath. Another moved uneasily iu
his chair, but no 0110 said n word,
"Tho man counted out $1,000," continued
tbo narrator, "thou ho counted out another
thousand, nnd another and another until five
piles lay bforo him. John looked at him a
moment and went down into his pockot. The
hands of both the players were trembling
slightly, but both looked confident."
Ono of tlio listeners now tapod his foot
Impatiently 011 tbo floor.
"Tho muii slowly pushed tho flvo rolls to
tbo center of tho table," ho wont on. "John's
eyebrows caino together. Ho took his wallet
and placed it bcsldo tho bills."
A flutter run through tlio group, followed
by a sudden Imsli. The narrator stopped in
his story, and bringing his chair down to the
floor, reached for a match. Ho struck it,
wailed for tho sulphur to burn out, and re
lighted Ids cigar. For a moment ho pufTod
away silently. "And t lion r" said one of hi
hearers nervously.
