Running a Sawmill and a Store Up Country. 295 



Columbia (part of the lake being visible in the picture), while the 

 mountains in the background are the foothills of the Selkirks. The 

 water wells up at blood heat, clear as crystal. The view which you 

 enjoy while indulging in a dip in this curious tub is magnificent, 

 for the photograph fails to take in the great snow-capped peaks of 

 the Selkirks that tower up behind the foothills.

There is a sad interest attached 10 this photograph, for it was 

 the last picture taken of a well-known early pioneer of the Pacific 

 coast, viz.. Dr. Miner, of Seattle, who, with some venturesome 

 companions, made a canoe trip through the Kootenay country 

 and was drowned a short time afterwards.
