French thui became the language of lait resort. But wby ahouldn't Volapuk be used in suoh oases) Volapuk hag some startling term* of endearment. The big Joggins' raft (the first and unsuccessful one) which was lost at sea last December, and whose whereabouts since has been a source of anxiety to many watchful skippers, has left its traces behind it, according to a Philadelphia paper, it is stated that residents of the Azores and Madeira islands report their shores lined with the trunks of huge trees, believed to be part of the great raftiujat Bi*3>£seo] to be on its way to Gibraltar or some other point of interest in. that locality. The skipper of a barque recently returned from a voyage over the Atlantio further asserts that he waa five days amongst these logs, an indication either that the skipper's idem are large and generous or that the raft still retains respectable proportions despite tlie repeated onslaughts of wind and There waa reported from Spring- hill, N. S., not long ago a fatality around which clung a good deal of mystery. Joseph Acklei was found dead in a ditch, and from marks upon hia head it looked as though a murder had been committed. An enquiry was held, but no elucidation of the tragedy resulted, although the local papers appear to resent the imputation of niurder in the case, The verdict of the jury being a neat thing in it* way, and quite in keeping with the inexplicable features of the occurrence, we give it, Acklos, from this declaration, came to his death "from some influence brought to bear upon the brain and spinal ohord, the exact nature of which wa* not definitely determined, to far a* thii evidence obtained bears on the ease." It. is something new to call a blow from a weapon an "influence." A New York despatch in a recent number of the Philadelphia Timet, alluding to Cleveland's retaliation message, throws some now nnd rather startling light upon the subject, as follows:—The president has not alept upon thia important matter. What he uttered in his famous md positive message upon the subject he meant. Those who thought his words at the time were idle emanations of the moment do not know the man. His convictions upon any subject are not only intense but tonaoious. This was abundantly proven by his giving his party new life and new policy, while practically endangering hii ensured reelection. When he pronounced hii great dictum upon tariff reform he was none the less serioui, although he has not received the oredit for it. Whim he deolarod that Canada must be made to sudor for any injuries done to American commerce or to American fishermen be meant what he said. Hut the Republican senate in its partisanship and the Republican lenders, blinded by bigotry, saw in Mr. Cleveland's retaliation message nothing but a bid for rotes, and thought the best way to dispose of it was to ignore it. They reckoned without their host. They knew not thnt with him conviction is a command, but they will find it out should the joint congresslonnl com mittee wait upon him before November 6. Mr, R. A.

Children CiyfW'i--Mw,<r*^^ .fails fritish Colombian FrlaUy Eve.lu, Oct. SS. uus. In an article the other day touching upon the Colonist's claim for an additional half a senator—to be taken from the mainland—for Vancouver Ialand, we concluded by stating that really important questions had been suggested by the Colonist l__Al4____tj-aising the question. The**utteslionsore a readjustment of Tepresentation both for the com- mons-and^orthe provincial legislature. AtpresentBritish Oolumbia hasaix rewuaentatives for the Dominion, divided equally between mainland and island. Toth. legis- lative assembly of the province 27 members are returned, 14 from the mainland and 13 from the island. In the commons Victoria city and diitrict has two representatives; Westminster oity end district, including the new-born but important and progressive city of Vancouver, ha* but one. This adjustment, obviously unequal now, promises to be a good deal more so before another Dominion general election take* place, and before that timo will re- quire to be placed upon a different basis But, for a striking example of* really "great preponderance," the representation of Viotoria city and district in the local legislature, ai compared with that of Westminster city and district in the ume body, demandi particular notice. Viotoria city, with a white population of barely 10,000—if it hai that —is allowed four representatives in the local house. Westminster city, with a white population of 5,000, has but one representative, and Vancouver, with a white population of about 9,000, has no representative at all in the provincial legislature. Here's a pretty how-de-do. And the Colonist talking about a "great preponderance!1' verily there is a great preponderance; but it's the other way round. Then, Victoria diitrict, including Esquimalt, has four representatives, while Westminster district, with considerably moro population, has but three. The glaring instances we have cited will give some idea of the unsuit- ableneu and inequality of the present distribution of representation in thi* province. Of coune, a good deal of this inequality has arisen from the rapid development of this part of the mainland since the last adjustment. The remedy is obvious —» redistribution of representation on aome fair basis of population, for the cities and populated districts of the province. For sparsely, settled and outlying districts other consideration! must be allowed due weight We believe that wme of thine ire over-represented st pres ent, ud that the number of representatives for the province is more than it should be. We shall not, however, enlarge upon this phase of the subject just now. One thing is certain, thnt a thorough revision and redistribution of representation for the whole province muit be undertaken and carried out before the dissolution of the present provincial parliament, and as only two more sauion* remain to that body, there muit be unap-a'ahranary wrestling next seuioo *rtth what is sure to prove u knotty.atnd discord-breeding proPulerQ—allxiojigtJ, if carried out in aipiritofitrictjualice, there is no minor, for any serious difficulty or trouble,. Viotoria, though, as standing for Vancouver Island, must oease i to oonaider itself os a sort of demi- provinee—havingseparate und pe- on'titr privileges—and must learn to regard Vancouver Island as a section or district of British Columbia —.entitled only to suoh rights as its comparative proportion, in every re- apect, to the whole province de- mandi. In this way, and in this way alone, can true union and amicable relations subsist between mainland and island, and equal jus tice be .done to every part of tbe province. _____________t__m Ai our climate ia subject to ohange* at certain seasons of the year, within, however, very temperate limits, the following from the SritmUfie American will be of inter Mt to houwwivei .especially: It ia stated that tbe .ndden change of ttuswi.lhii. recently Irom cold to w*am and damp, observe! the Phil- orMphi- Times, ha* caused thou- sandi of dollars of damage to wall paper and other articles in houses. Of coune it has, and it ia so simply because many people do not study the plainest common sense principle* in airing their houses. One evening lately people went to bed with * hunt for extra blankets be- caus. ot tha sudden and severe chill in On atmosphere. When they rose in the morning their bedrooms, parlors, dining rooms, etc., were yet entity from the cold of the previoui d»y, while the outside atmosphere rud suddenly become not only warm, but hot and oppressive with damp- nets. Inconaiderate people opened their window* and doors because the wether wa* warm, forgetting that tb*i*xoaisive moiature in the attno- ifahero would rush in with the warm _kr__4'tmittlj-efO_i%_mlton the' cM Will*, furniture, etc., Add pene- tmte mtll papers, ourtains, bedding, and everything within reach that ul«WBteel. aurface colder than the itt*^«med it into the house. Of oooise the moiature loosened and _._uyr.li-*d jtftr, made ourtaini a* UqfMttmAWiwtoM-**** and musty, and generally spoiled everything that water couhl spoil; but all could have been avoided by following the plain, common sense rule of not opening houses suddenly to suddenly changed atmosphere, carrying nn excessive quantity of moisture. A pitcher tilled with cold water and placed in a room in summer will "sweat"—at least that is what it is commonly called. The pitcher does not sweat, because it is not porous and cannot sweat; but the cold water inside of it chilis the outer surface, nnd, ns soon ns tho outer surface of the pitehor Incomes cooler than the atmosphere in the room, the moisture of the air will be precipitated upon tbe pitcher in drops. This simple illustration should teach all housewives to avoid suddenly opening rooms in a bouse when the outside atmosphere is warmer than the temperature of the rooms and full of moisture, tn all such cases the wall paper, furniture, etc., being cooler than tho outside air, will speedily have the moisture of the atmosphere precipitated upon them, and it will require days to restore tho house to the dry condition that is essential to health. There are no arbitrary freaks in the laws which govern the atmosphere surrounding us, and thero is nothing abstruse in mastering them. Warm, damp air will ever precipitate its moisture in houses or elsewhere whenever it cornea in contact with anything chilled by a cooler atmosphere, and that is the whole story. The only thing to lie added is that, when people have thus ignorantly or negligently allowed their houses to become damp, thoy should light fires and dry them as promply as possible. ~ '-;••' ■•.■:..- : .ft?* Pimples, Boils, And Carbunoles result bom a debilitated. impoverished, or impure condition of the blood.

The crop thii yur ia either lighter than usual or the Indians have not turned out in as large force as in other years. In seasons when the berries are plentiful Mr. Vianen usually receives from 600 to 800 barrels, all of which cornea from the marshes near the mouth of tho river. Sail Francisco ia the beit mirket found for theie berries, tho demand being large and pricei alwayi good. Mr. Vianen hu filled one order for 60 barrels at $10 per barrel but will not tell any more at that price, whioh is certainly very tow, The British Oolumbia cranberry command! the higheit price on the market, being acknowledged superior to all othen. The quantity of acid in our wild cranberriei ii something remarkable, and it ia laid they require double aa much sweetening u any other. The more acid the cranberry contain! the more luperior it ii in quality. Mr. Vianen will endeavor to make a shipment to Manitoba if he can get reasonable freight rates and a fair price. . .■ > straw, la Ike Wild, Straws are uid to indicate the direction of the wind. So certain ligm, ■mall in themielvci, relatively speaking, may be taken u a fair gauge of the commercial prosperity and general progren of a community. Many of theie "itrawi," which we ihall not enumerate here, demonstrating tint a most favorable trade wind hai let in in our direction, are patent to the moit casual observer in the Royal City. One of thete indications we shall notice briefly, A Columbian repraientalive, attracted by the appearance of improvement! and additiona which have lately been going on in connectiion with Ihe New Woitminiter Foundry on Front atreet, waited bn the manager, Mr. Robert Law, who kindly furniihed a few facta and figure! to the Inquisitive newi-gttherer, which we give to the public. The new addition to the foundry, neirly completed now, ihei- lurei 00x26 feet, and il two itoriei high. The lint floor will be mod for a machine ahop, and the ucond floor for a pattern room and for general wood-work.

UttOOS* Jl Hotel .fecal Ike Be..ua tad elbcr ledies.»l lleM Schemc..t*ollllcil Hotel. From Mr. H. .T. Keary, of Lillooet, who is in the city on a ihort visit, we obtain the following interesting note! about mining and other matter! in Lillooet and vicinity. Mr. H. O. Prober!, a mining expert, repnunting the Rothsohildi, Baring Brothen, and other English capitalists, and superintendent of rich minei In Nevada on behalf of English capital, inspected the Bonanza, near Lillooet, a few weeki ago, taking away leveral specimens of quartz. The omiora of tho Bonanza have called for tendon to run a tunnel 100 feet into the mountain, following the ledge. The work, it ia expected, will bo commenced almost immediately, and will be completed early thia winter. The tunnel may be extended more tlian 100 feet, and ihould tut the ledge pretty thoroughly. Rich ditcoveriet may be looked for, u tho Bonanza ia considered a promising gold-bearing quirlz ledge; Mr. J. M. Jensen, repreienting Victoria capitalists, discovered recently, it the head of Andenon lake, about milea from Lillooet, a ledge of na ore, assaying *130 of silver to the ton. This is a valuable discovery, and will probably be worked before A BOLD SCHEME, Fader Bros., of Vancouver, sawmill ownen and operate™, Intend, if it ii ascertained to be practicable, logo into a aomewhat daring phue of the lumbering buiineii. Thii ii none other than a acheme to bring white pine Ion from Bridge river, about 30 milei above Lillooet, u the crow flies. Bridge river is a tributary of the Fraier, and rum through a district prolific in the somewhat icarce but incomparable white pine. Fader Broa. propoie to fell the treei and ihoot tho log! down tho rapidi of Bridge river and through the boiling canyons of the Fraser m fir u Hope, where a boom would be fixed, and the log! rafted from that point down the river to the market!. They alio propoie to follow the logt up in canoei and help them out of oddiea and over obstructions. The experiment will prove an intereiting one at any rate, and ahould they lucceed, the retulta will be important. rOLIIICAL NOTES. Mr. F. S. Barnard, a candidate for the commont, to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Reid'a appointment to the senate, wu at Lillooet about the 1st inst, making himself "solid" with the voten (a process, by the way, whioh often follo.a the law nf contrariei lotions in the present mil implies the dispensing of unlimited "liquid!.") Mr. R. McLccsc, another candidate fur the samo position, was down from Soda Creek, about a week afterwards, 'ling up hia opponent*! itakei and making himself "solid." The contest will, it is believed, be very dote at Lillooet, although the good Lillouetitel naturally have a little objection to Mr. Barnard on the ground of hii non- residence on the mainland. From Ihe Yak... Mr. Jamei McCauley, who lately arrived from the Yukon country, wintered ^with , Mr., Wm. Ogilvie, of the geological lurvey at Forty-Mile Creek on that river. He uyi that he heard from a Ohurch of England clergyman and hii wife, who had arrived at the Yukon, that Mr. Ogilvie had aucceeded in safely reaching the Peel river about the 16th or 17th of July, with all well. Mr. McCauley was for nearly four yean in the Yukon country, mining, and describe! it it the hardeit country ever visited by. white man. The placer mining would pay pretty woll if worked by machinery. The quarts promiau fair, but the difficulty wculd be that machinery could not be eanly worked during the winter. The coldest lut winter wai 60 deg. below zero, whioh wu comidered very moderate woather. Mr. MoCauley haa ordered machinery through the Alaska Commercial Co. and they will deliver it up the Stewart River 1900 milei from St. Michael.. The river breaki up about the middle of May and cloua up in October. The summer seuon ii picas- ant with very little vegetation growing. Game ia rather icarce. Th. King ulmon in the Yukon ii the largeit and Guest in the world. The Yukon river ii a fine large itream and navigable for over two thousand milei md in lome placei from ten to twelve milei wide.
