CRANBROOK SUFFERS
SERIOUS LOSS
BUT THE BOYS AND GIRLS ARE
HAPPY OVER THE RESULT
About three o'clock lliis morning
soinr railway men working in
C.P.R. yard's discovered that
school house was un lire. They,, iui-
mediately gave the alarm und the
iui; department tinned out at once.
The lire hud such a hold that all that
could bo done was to take care ot
thv buildings near hy. By half past
three llie old school building was a
mere reap of hot ashes.
It is impossible to say liotv the
building caught lire. The janitor
says that there was absolutely no
fire iu the building at ti.'ili last
night. In fact, some ot the teachers
complained that their class rooms
were cold as early as 3.3(1. However, the fire started. It is certain
that it originated within the building and downstairs, because tbe
timbers of the lower part ot the
building fell inward as the root collapsed. The burning of the old
school removes an old landmark from
the city.
The tirst school ever held in Cranbrook was in a part of the building
now occupied by the Prospector and
the first school teacher was Mrs. J.
F. M. Pinkham. In 1899 a small
school was built and in 1902 the big
school was built, A. D, Grant lieing the contractor. Later a wing
was huiit by James Drier. Both
of these buildings stood until this
morning, and being adjacent to each
other, were consumed by the flames.
The fire department.did most excellent work, as they always do, turning out and getting to tlie burning
building in a very short space of
time after the alarm was received.
Two lines of hose were laid and two
streams were soon playing on the
burning building, but the fire had too
much of a hold ior these tu be of auy
avail, so the liremcn devoted tueit
energies towards saving the surroundings, ana tins they succeeded in
doing.
Tiie burning of thc school is a great
loss to Uianurook, uui only) linaneial-
iy, as there was no insurance, nut
nccause it will be almost impossluiu
to arrange for the holding ul school
until alter the summer vacation,
it would lake at least three weeks
to make auy kind of temporary arrangements and secure books from
the coast, aud that would only leave
three weeks' school. However, the
high school class, which is Md in
the government building, will continue as usual, and arrangements will
probably be made tu continue the
entrance class, so that they can tase
tneir examination.
Whilst some of the children are
sorry to sec the old building burned,
most of them were delighted at the
prospect of the enforced holiday.
This morning the ruins were like a
human ant lull, swarming with boys
and gnls. "That's where my seat
used to be," said a fat rosy-faced
boy uf abuut eight. "1 wonder
where my pencil box went," said a
bright little girl, Each and everyone of the youngsters had something
lo say, nnd' many were thc regrets
for the loss uf this or that favorite
hook, compasses, squares and so
forth. The old school has gone, but
the new lifty thousand dollar building is under way and in a short
time Cranbrook's educational institution will arise like thc Phoenix from
its ashes in a more glorified form.
A
KNIGHTS OK COLUMBUS.
A council ol the Knights of Columbus will be instituted in Cranbrook
next Monday. The Knights of Columbus is an order instituted in the
earlv eighties at New Haven, Conn.,
and is strictly a Roman Catholic institution, lt is a benefit society in
the lirst place and has thc usual insurance facilities common to most
fraternal institutions. Besides this
it is a social order in every sense of
1 he term. Knights are expected
from Spokane, Calgary and other
points both east and west to take
part in the inauguration here. A
large class of candidates will be initialed and a big time is expected.

OBSERVATIONS?
UY THE OLD MAN. t
What the people of Cranbrook want
and demand is u real lire alarm and
not a false alarm. The business men
ol this city are entitled to uu alarm
tbat will notify them when u lire
lias taken place. It is up to tbe
authorities to provldo such an alarm.
Then- will be more market gardening done this year than ever before in
the history of the I'ranbrook district. The reason is thut the market
for fresh vegetables is always increasing and those iu the business
feel sure ol a good market.
It pays lo advertise in thc Herald.
A certain gentleman who bus been
persistently advertising in these
columns told us this week that he
hu<l received inquiries from PenMo
ton, H. C,| und from Latjuaro, Arizona. This shows that the Herald is
read, not only in British Columbia,
but all over the continent.
The lumbermen of Kast Kootenay
have inaugurated a movement tbat
will lead to a permanent organization for the purpose of protecting
tbe timber limits of this district.
Tbe idea is to form an organization
including all lumbermen east of the
Kootenay and extending as far ns
Creston, This organization will provide for lire wardens at their own
expense, who will be placed in the
field for the purpose of doing active
work and prevent the disastrous destruction of timber that has occurred
during tbe summer months for vcars
past. The lumbermen are showing
the proper .spirit in taking thc initiative in Ihis matter, and they are
verv reasonable in their hope that
tlie C.P.R, ami the provincial Government will assist them in their efforts to protect the timber limits of
IhiS district. A. Leitch, of the Easl
Kootenav Lumber company, and P.
Lund, manager of the Crows Nest
Pass Lumber eompanv. called on the
Herald this mi-rning and wive n brief
outline of the plans of the lumbermen to protect the timber limits in
ihis section of the country. Those
on tbe east side of the Kootenav river, who have interests west of the
Kootenay river, will be asked to cooperate with this organization, while
those west of the Kootenay who have'
Interests east of the Kootenay river j
will co-operate with tlie Fernie organization. This movement is a'
most important one aud there is no
dotlbt but that the C.P.K., which!
have large timber interests in tbe
ilistriet, and tlte provincial govern-!
ment, will co-operate with the lumbermen in protecting the timber |
limits during the time that timber |
lires arc liable to occur.
Tbe Herald this week is compelled
lo reduce its size to six pages, owing to thc fact that a large shipment
of paper from the cast has been delayed. The Herald regrets that it is
unable to print the paper in its usual
size, but in our many years of experience in the newspaper business
we have always found it necessary to
have paper to print a paper.
Cianbrook -will have more new
buildings erected this year thau any
year in its history.
The Hoard of Trade is erecting a
sign ut tlie railway station ten feet
wide and twenty feet loug, which will
call the attention of the thousands of
people who will pass through Cranbrook this summer, to the fact that
this citv is the center of -the best agricultural and fruit lands in British
Columbia. The Board of Trade is
doing all in its power to advance the
interests of Cranbrook aud the (lis*
Iriit and is entitled to the support
of every property owner and wage
earner iu Cranbrook.
They are shipping lobsters from
Halifax to the Pacific coast. Lord,

There is a campaign on in Vancouver demanding pure milk. Such a

Should receive the attention ot the

Wc still persist that this is thc

BAND CONCERT
On Monday evening when the City
Hand gave its first recital to the
very great pleasure ol the people, thc
yard engine, .No. 2128, backed up and
coughed and snorted its approval tor
about- a quarter ol an hour. Orpheus
with his lute made thc trees dance,
but it stands as a marvelous compliment that a base, material, Arc-consuming, locomotive should chortle ber
praises ol Mr. Corrlsoa's artists-
even though her applause should spoil
(Inr thc rest ol us) two ol the very
best numbers. It were well it she
had active business in the other end
ol the yard in future when thc band
is playing. Appreciation ol that
kind is a trifle too strenuous when It
spoils good music.
And the music Is good, be it remembered. Heretofore it was a
light tti a finish between thc performers and thc bare action ol accomplishment. And it was mostly a
very bare accomplishment, eked out
by blatant brasslness to hide the
mistakes. Now the music has a
meaning, and the players, one and
nil, have grasped thc meaning and
know how, by real art, to give the
public a reading ol the meaning thai
lies al the back ol the item In hand.
Formerly it was all fortissimo. II
you paint a house all red, you will
liml it bard to paint It redder for
contrast sake. Now we have the
shades, every one ot them, irom the
lightest pianlmisso to the crash that
lifts one (airly oil one's leet. That
music. Some one asked a great
painter once upon a time, wilh what
ne mixed his pigments. He answered, "With brains." That Is the ar-
llcle that Mr. Corrison has induced
our local musicians to tnli their
music with.
This is intended as a warm compliment, where a compliment is tairlv
deserved and tairlv earned. Thc
I braid means tt as such.
The cornet solo by Waller Miller
was n gem and was thoroughly enjoyed hv everyone. The selections
Irom ''Pinafore" and "Southern
Melodies" were among the best ol
manv good numbers.

WHEN THE MAY FI.Y SWAHMS.
Whilst lluck Taylor and Thomas
Turlcy were away up the Skookum-
chuck the Herald understands there
was great excitement, when the two
worthies attempted to cross a log
nn thc creek, in which they were
fishing. Thomas Turlcy dc-
lorrcd to "Duck" Taylor's age to
lead the van, and "Buck," who was
nol shod with spiked hoots declined
tin- honor and thought that youth
should he served; between the two
nf them it finally came to a climax
in whltih each decided to go his own
wav, i-e., "Burk" tried to find a lord
ami Thomas E. find stepping stones;
ennsei|iienlly they both got their leet
wet. although "Burk" declares his
lumbago Is gone and Tommr caught
a cold.

KORT STEELE.
(Communicated.)
The ladies ol tlic Presbyterian
church gave a very succcsstul and exceedingly enjoyable concert in the
church on Kriday evening last, April
30th. The programme consisted ol
snugs and Instrumental pieces. The
reputation ol Mr. tire/, us a player is
well established thruughout the district, but this concert introduced lo
tlie public a new performer on the
mandolin, Mr. .1. Larson, jr. It was
also the means of introducing a new
"slur singer," Miss Kelly, whose
voice is a sweet and most pleasing
one. Her songs, "Queen ol the
Earth," and "Come Hack to Erin,"
wen: received with delighted applause by the audience. Mrs. Cham-
ings scored a distinct triumph in ber
snugs, "Whisper and I Shall Hear,"
anil "Sing Mc to Sleep." This was
also the lirst. appearance ol the
Messrs. (inggs brothers in Fort
Steele on a concert platlorm, but
their singing was such as to receive
u hearty encore, and the public will
be glad' In welcome them again and
again. The singing nl the Sunday
School children, so well and carefully
trained bv Mrs. Chamings and Mrs.
Jennings, was a most deeided pleasure lo the very discriminating audience. The object nl tbe concert-
In pay lur certain repairs to the
church, was completely successful. A
hearty vote nl thanks tn all who
took pari in the entertainment closed une nl lbe pleusantest evenings
enjnvcil in a long while by our quiet
liltle town.

t, OREAT COLD STORAGE
PLANT.
The cold storago plant ol P. Burns
A: Co. is so lur advanced that a representative ul lbe Herald was able
lo go through the building and have
eaeh part ol il explained lo Mm.
The structure is ol double brick, wiib
au air spaee, '13x10 fi-i-l in size, assuring insulation. There are two
cold sntage chambers, each 10x20 leet
in size. For the purpose nl making
Ihem heat resisting, they will lie
lined witli two thicknesses ul insiil-
uting paper, then two thicknesses ol
Cabot paper, then two more thicknesses nl insulating paper and finally
witb matched boarding. An ammonia
engine will lurnish tbe cooling element. This will be located in a
property designed engine room. There
is a saiisage kitchen 23x12 in size in
which will be installed the latest
maohlnory. An egg storeroom, about
Hi leet square will also bo a feature
uf the building.
The colli ainnnia pipes will extend
Into lhe butcher shop so thai all
meats will he kept al the proper
temperature at nil times.
The building is practically fireproof,
witli flroprool doors and a roof
which, bv its construction, may be
flooded at any time.
The work has been under the direction id K. Woodyard; nl Fernie, and
to his credit, he It- sulci, that he has
as lar as possible pniplcived loeal
labor throughout the construction.
TH B offer to give the people the benefit of our necessities, as the stock must be reduced before the
Ladies' Department is moved to new quarters, has been
eagerly accepted, as the low prices have proven very
attractive. But more goods must be sold, as it is better to
sell at reduced prices than move the stock. This applies to
everything in our big store, and prices have been slashed in
every department. Mr. Hill will return within a week to
superintend the removal of the Dry Goods and Dress Goods,
and the stock must be greatly reduced before that time.
Mr. Hill has so ordered, and says that we are to CUT
PRICES STILL LOWER, so that the goods
may be sold.
NOW IS YOUR CHANCE for the big line
of bargains in
Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Clothing, Shoes.
In fact, Everything in the Store
HILL & COMPANY JSS5
McCallum & Co. have had charge ol
the plumbing ol the building. There
is not a better rclrigcrator plant in
the Interior ol British Columbia and
il will be a credit to P. Burns and
Company and Cranbrook.

A GOOD SHOW.
Thc Eckardts, thc Swiss Bell Ringers, gave a very pleasing entertainment last Tuesday at the Auditorium. It is to be regretted tbat
a lull house did not greet this company, as it was one ol the best musical' aggregations that ever held thc
boards at the Auditorium, but those
who were present thoroughly enjoyed
the performance presented. Thc bell
ringing and the other numbers were
well received and it is the opinion
generally expressed that the Eckardts are the best balanced musical
company Ihat has visited Cranbrook.
The eompanv is en route to Seattle,
where they play a three months engagement at the big exposition.

Coleman, Alta., April 22nd, moo.
To the Right Hon. Adolphus Lemieux
Postmaster General, Ottawa,
Ottawa, Ont:
Dear Sir: Owing to the growth and
development ol all lines nl trade in
Coleman, and the consequent Increase

tlnnal mall service. Such service to
be carried mi what is now known as
lhe loeal train, due at about 11.55
a.m. going east and at about 0 p.m.
going welt.
If there were such an extra mall
service It would facilitate thc receiving and despatching ot the mail, say
ahout twelve hours earlier than is
now thc case, in business matters
this saving ot time ls very important. The train service Is an established tact, and there is only the additional arrangment in dftail for
carrying the mail.
Be it therelore resolved that, The
Coleman Board ot Trade, reaped fully
petition the Postmaster General to
establish this additional mail service
at the earliest possible moment, and
as In duty hound your petitioners

snatch ul every song he bears, but
will nut learn a full separate melody
nl Ins own. And the master covers
tlic cage unci makes il dark all about
the bird, und then he listens and
learns thc one song that is taught

Then, ever alter, he sings the song in
the light. With many ol us it is as
with tlic bird. Thc Master has a
sung he wants to teach us, but we
learn uuly a strain ol it, a note here
and there, while wc catch up snstohe<
uf the world's song and sing them
with it. Then he comes and makes
it dark about us, till we learn tbe

considered, amougst other tilings, tno

Lines, Lid., to purchase the plant ol
the compauy, Alter a luug discussion ut tlie pros aud cons, it was
decided that tho company had tou
valuable a proposition to .sell at the
price offered, and the secretary was
instructed tu decline tho offer. Acting on the minutes uf the previous
meeting, tlio urrangomeuls tu raise
tui'tlii'i capital wore eon side led. The
capital is subscribed tor the purpose
ut Installing a 2UU drop awltchboard,
a new metallic circuit, private lines
to those who want them, aud a cuu-
staui 16 hour service each day, including holidays uud Sundays. A

have the necessary ability to attend
tu the repairs und keep the line always tirst-elass. By this arrangement the people ot Creston will have
a splendid telephone system, and
without doubt one of the finest in
the province. In a few weeks

will lie begun at an earlv date anil

FOREST FIRES
RESULTS OF INVESTIGATION
BV FOREST EXPERT IN ALBERTA.
Forestry in Western Canada (as
everywhere else) means far more
than the planting ot trees. The
lirst step in forestry is the preservation ol forests already existing, and,
as far as Canada—cast and west
alike—is concerned, that means tlie
Keeping out the tires. Something in
this direction has already heen dune
iu Canada, but much remains to be
done.
Forest fires in thc Rockies, their
effects and means of preventing them
are discussed hy Mr. 11. R. MacMil-
lan. Assistant Inspector of Dominion
Forest Reserves, iu the December issue ol the Canadian Forestry Journal. His article gives the result ot
investigations made by him during
the season of 1000 in tbe Crows Nest
district of Southern Alberta, more
accurately defined as the valley of
the middle lurk ol the Old Man river,
between tbe Livingstone Range and
the western boundary of Alberta.
Originally this whole region was
heavily timbered, so thc reports ol
explorers and other early visitors to
the district say, with thc exception
uf a small'area feiirhtcen square
miles in extent), situated above timber line. "So numerous and so
disastrous have heen the fires following in the wake ol travelers, settlers
and railways," Mr. MacMillan
writes, "that at present, ol the original 212 square miles of forest, only
'i'i square miles remain." Moreover,
the timber which is easiest to get at
is alwavs the first destroyed, and
what is left is situated at high levels and In other places where it is
hard to get at.
Not only has the timber originally
on the land been destroyed, but in
some eases all possibitHv nf producing, without going to an enormous
expense for artificial nlantlne, more
limber (ur anvthlng else) on the land
has been taken away. In this Crows
Nest valley alone there are, uut of
the 212 square miles of its total
urea, tia .square miles of such laud.
Originally covered by a heavy forest
uf Iir, it is now but'a "puur, gravelly prairie, unfit for agricultural and
of very little use for grazing." Que
lire aluue dues nut usually have this
effect, but "a second or third fire
rarely fails tu kill all the forest reproduction" {i.e., the little trees)
"lo destroy the remaining seed trees,
lo burn oil the upper layer of soil,
and leave a desolate waste," such as
the country just spoken of.
Ou portions of this urea nature has
made a good start toward creating a
new forest. Sixty square miles of
the area are covered by a dense
growth of young trees, the laud si
covered lying iou high on the hillsides and being too ruugh, stony and
gravelly to he lit for agriculture or
valuable Ior grazing. All that this
area requires In order that it may
again ho covered with dense lorcsts
is protection from fire.
Thus (ire protection is obviously
the great need or the region, and the
Department of thu Interior, through
its Forest branch, is devising means
to this end. So far, the measures
used for the protection of forests
from fire in Canada have consisted of
the patrol of the forests by rangers,
who constantly travel through the
forest, keep a lookout for fires (often
discovering and extinguishing in their
beginnings fires which, neglected,
would burn over miles ot territory,
fight fires and warn campers and
travelers ngainst the careless use of
fire. This patrol will, in all probability, form the basis of thc system
of protection eventually put in operation, supplemented hv the use of
"look-outs" and the telephone.

Despite iii-i tun*, however, ii again fostered, -Mid

which lhe doctor gave me seemed absolutely unable
to bring about any relief. We were told ol a case
similar to my own in which Zam-Buk had effected
u cure when everything else had failed, and we,
then-lore decided to give Zam-Buk a trial. It only
needed a few days to show the wisdom of this
step. Tht? bloo'l-poisoning and Inflammation were
minced, and tho pain became less acute. In
under three weeks from first commencing with
Zain-Hiilt the Anger was quite sound again."

the ropo until his hand was pulled up

" 1 had previously had cKpcripncn of
the healing power of Zam-Buk, and the
way It soothes cuts and injuries. I,
therefore, bound the Angers In Zam-Buk,
and It was most gratifying the way In
which this balm soothed tho pain. Two
days after tho accident the wounds
We.ro closed, and new skin was beginning to form over the top. Each day
I dresBcd tho wounds with Zam-Buk,
and 1 urn now buck again at work with
the hand as sound as ever. To look at
It you would never know It had been
so terribly torn and lacerated.
