Englishman Lascelles kills Chinese servant near Cranbrook
The eccentric Englishman Lascelles living by Columbia Lake near Canal Flats shot and killed a Chinese employee. After the act he dressed in a topcoat and fled, later captured by authorities. Reports describe his isolated life, fortune about 300000, and mental decline. A separate note records William Hargreaves of Winnipeg, a traveling salesman, taking his own life at Rat Portage after a visit to Cranbrook.

Iron prospects in Goat River district spark Canadian iron industry hopes
Montreal financiers back a large hematite iron ledge between Arrow Creek and Goat River with two diamond drills. The 46 to 120 foot wide vein runs six miles with assays around 60 percent magnetic iron. If depth holds, Kootenay development could rival Clergue steel and power from Goat River may rival Bonnington Falls. Local miners report copper ore on St Marys River claims and renewed activity across East Kootenay while officials publish a mining industry review for Glasgow and Buffalo expos.
