A bright, clean burning Coal, and a favorite Fuel for the open grate. Protection Island Coal, «pp*rs-«. This Coal is similar in appearance and quality to the New Wellington, but it is a better Gas Coal, and for general purposes will be preferred to all other Coals produced on Vancouver Island. The above Coals are mined by the New Vancouver Coal Company, only.

(2) Inco rporated C!om- of all Plaoes in eaoh of all cities, towns, landings; (5) Complete In presenting the seventh volume of the Brit^'nh Oolnmbia Gazetteer and Direc- tory, the publishers desire to say that the sa le exertions, the same degree of ability and a greater degree of perfection in the organization of the forces and (lata necessaiy for the collection and and campilation of the information essential to the value of the Directory have been employed to make this volume superior to its pre deceai;^rs ; and the knowledge that those who frequently use the Direc- tory and are mo3t oompateat to pass upon its merits appreciate our work and are always ready to commend its trustworthiness at 3 as an incentive to greater effort on our part to make it correspond to the staurj \g of the Province it rep- resents. The volume this year is divided into six parts, viz:— (1) Mining Companies doing business in Britit^h Oolumbia; panies; (3) a Gazetteer Index showing the namcD Electoral District; (4) Gazetteer and Directory villages, post-offices, mining camps and steamboat St;eo.> and Alphabetical Directories of the Cities of Vancouver and Victoria;' and (6)A Complete Classified Business Directory. The compiling and publishing of Directories is our exclusive business. We have a complete plant and every facility for turning out a first-class work. The principal work pertaining to our Directories is done by men trained to the work, and who are all engaged in it the year round. The Gazetteer section has been considerably increased by the addition of the names of principal residents in our lists of country towns. The Cities and the principal towns have been carefully revised and the information brought down to a late date and will be found to be very complete. The Directory of Mining Companies is the only work that shows the names of all the Mining and Development Companies doing business in this Province, and great care has been taken in its revision and in the addition of new matter Attention is directed to the fact that in the Gazetieer all plaoes are found in their proper alphabetical order. The present edition gives descriptions of 875 places, last year there were 844 places. The lists of plaoes by districts will be found a great convenience when used in connection with the Gazetteer . For convenience of reference, sub-heads show the first and last names on each page of the City Directories, and the first a nd last places contained on the pages of the Gazetteer. To make a Directory absolutely correct is impossible ; but we believe tha this volume is as nearly correct as it is possible to make it with the rapidly changing population. To our many kind friends who have revised proofs, and without whose assis- tance it would have been impossible to seonre reliable information, we take this opportunity of returning our sincere thanks. Thanking our patrons for their encouragement, courtesy and liberal sapp ort our endeavor will be to merit a continuation of their favor. Respeotfolly, HENDERSON PUBLISHING COMPANY, LTD. LTY.
