New Westminster,, April 19.— The city market held yesterday was an average one. The supply of meats was fair and what was offered found a ready sale. There was much better inquiry for veal than •has been the case for sometime. Poultry was not plentiful and what was offered found a ready sale at the high prices now prevailing. Eggs wete abundant and all that was offered did not find a sale. The potatoes sold realized prices about the same as last week, the quotations showing no indication of dropping again but will probably rise several points yet. However in .spite of the prices the demand for ,the tubers was limited. BBS!'' Per P0'"1"1 JUndqnnrters iuc.

Short- reed. $11.4.0. The council then adjourned till Saturday, April 26th, at 2 p.m. Another injunction against V. Vi & E. has been issued. the No Possibility of North Victoria Election for Some Time. The main items of interest in the legislature for the past week has been the declaration of the minister of mines that the government would not bring on the election in North Victoria at present. The motion of Mr. McBride, demanding the resigntaion of the Government on account of the contract which they had made with the Edmonton Yukon Railway Company, created quite a ripple of excitement. Messrs. Oliver and Kidd supported the resoutiou, whilst Hayward and Helmecken voted for the. government. Much unfavorable comment is heard in regard to the action pf the two last named gentlemen, in view of the fact that, in the recent by-election, in Victoria, both of these gentlemen denounced this agreement. It is reported that McLean Bros oi Vancouver, have entered into contract with the government for construction of the Coast-Kootenay Road. It has been frequently stated here since the issue of Mr. Dewd- ney's report of the survey made over the route of the proposed Coast- Kootenay that this report is much more unfavorable to the route than warranted by the facts. A deputation from the canners' association waited on the government to-day, and had an interview with the executive. It is understood that they were very much dis-satis- fied with the action of the government in cancelling the reserves on the foreshore of this province, and it is rumored here that certain parties received an intimation that this reserve was to be cancelled, thus giving them an advantage in applying for foreshore rights for the purpose of erecting fish traps. Considerable unfavorable comment is heard in respect to the action of the attorney-general securing an injunction to prevent the construction of the V. V. & E. Railway in the Boundary Creek district. It seems inconceivable that a government which is prepared to spend dollars and give away millions of acres pf land for the purpose of securing railway construction, should expend the funds of the province to obstruct the building of a road which asks for no assistance whatever. It ceriainly appears as if the government was under the domination of the Canadian Pacific railway. It is also rumored that the government may not bring down any railway legislation this session.. Of course they are pledged to do Sk>, but, judging by their record, it need not be any surprise if the House prorogues without this legislation being introduced. It is stated that Mr. Dunsmuir has booked his passage to England to attend the coronation ceremonies, and that he will leave here on the 13th of May. Mr Oliver moved, that an order of the House be granted for a return showing in detail all moneys expended in connection with public works in the riding of Delta for the period between July 1, 1900, and December 31, 1902. Mr. Oliver moved the resolution in order to draw attention to certain discirepencies in the annual report of the Department of Lands and Works. He pointed put that certain road work was charged at $6, which to his knowledge must have cost close on $900. In; another place where work was put 4°wn as costing $240, it had actually cost over $600, and so on. The report of the Department of Lands and Works was deceiving in many par ticulars, as he knew the larger amounts had been expended on the works in question. Mr McBride moved that an order of the House be granted for the return of all papers and. letters re ceived by the government, and the replies thereto, in connection with any proposed dredging operations on the Fraser river between Harrison River and Steveston, and whether under the supervision of either the Dominion or Provincial authorities, or both. Hon. Mr. Wells said there were no papers, or correspondence in his department regarding the matter. Mr. McBride said the lands in question were being rapidly washed away by the yearly freshets, and it was important that the government should take the matter in hand and devise some means to stop the destruction of a large area of what might be made valuable agricultural lands. Under the circumstances, however, he would withdraw his resolution. Baptist Entertainment. On Monday evening a large crowd attended the platform meeting and social held in the new Baptist church, in connection with the op^ ening. Qn the platform Re\\ Mr, Williamson was assisted by the Rev. P, H. McEwen, I. G, Matthews, Truman Bishop, from the cities $nd the local ministers,, Rev's. T. Oswald and E. Manuel. After a few words of welcome ftom the chairma.11, Mr Oswald delivered a splendid address, on the great need for hearty co-operation to fight the day. He appealed to the people to support the reading room as it was an agent greatly cpjiducive to the morality of the tow-f. He was glad to be there, and show his sympathy with the Baptists in their efforts to extend the Kingdom of God. Mr. Matthews fpllpwed, and said that every church was a standing protest against imuipnality in ever}' form.. Mr. Bishop spoke next and said thai he was impressed with the ffict that Ladiwr was well provided with churches and that although some might thhak too many, he thpught that there was need for all- That while; there existed differences of opinion in men's minds their uumber could not grow l^ss,. There were many principles on which they could all stand aad work together. Mr. Manuel was next cal- ed upon and in the course of a witty speech said that he expected to see the time when there would be fewer denominations. He congratulated the Baptists on their achievement, and wished them even- good and prosperity. Mr. McEwen followed and said that the church had a place to fill in the community which could not be filled by any other organization and if this church did not fill that place it ought to die. All the addresses were thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. During the evening Miss Thirkle sang " In Heavenly Love Abiding," which was very much appreciated. Rpv, Mr. Williamson plaved a cornet solo "The Holy City," and also gave a recitation. After the program the ladies served refreshments. I COLll BAP Played to a Large House Last Saturday Evening. Everybody in Ladner went to seethe Colleen Bawn on Tuesday evening last—at least the crowded house would give one that impression. The New Westminster theatrical amateurs accompanied with a large coterie of friends arrived at Ladner about 8:30 o'clock by the steamer Beaver and the performance began shortly after lasting for about two hours. Our readers are yet familiar with the plot and its characters, and we believe all will agree with- us that it was a great success. There- can be no question of the audience.s, approval as the actors were cheered; generously and vigorously during the presentation. The company is a credit to the Royal City and held the close attention of the audience throughout the three acts and under more favorable circumstances the play could be presented much better, however, the various dramatic situations, so far as the stage would permit, were given full justice by the young artists. Some of the characters were particularly creditable, but there is not a weak person in the cast and the popular verdict is that "The Colleen Bawn " was certainly the best thing seen in Lad- neT this winter. We hope-that at some future date when the>com$any hare another play to pr-ssetifc that they will pay our town % visit;.. Financially, we undittstand the venture was a success,, and the lacrosse club have a net balance of $25 to show as a result of, tihe trip. After the performance the hall was cleared and.a short dance was enjoyed by those- who felt so inclined. The steamer left for the Royal City shortly after- one o'clock, and thus ended the: second moonlight excursion to Ladner by the young people of Westminster. Fraser River Bridge. Work on the.substructure of' tha new bridge across the Fraser. ajb New Westminster will be. begun, next week by th$. successful tender-, ers, Messrs. Armstrong,. Morrjson & Balfour. Camps will be started, and the shore work will be begun. The contract is a large one, but owing to, the high water which prevails from now until or latter end of May little work, can be. done in the stream before. Uie summer When the water pe/mits, however, the work- will be flushed, and it is estimated that 150 men or more will be employed. The banks of the, Fraser-in the neighborhood of l^e historip city of New Westminster, will be the active scene of bvyiy operations this year. It is probable that the superstructure will also be be constructed by this firm. Mayor Keary of New ^^tmln^ ster received word this week that Andrew Carnegie would put up a $15,000 public library building if the city provided suitable site and $1,500 annually for maintenance. A fine site is available, and it is not improbable that the scheme, wilj n\eet with piiblic approval and the donor's conditions complied with.

Sul&cripUou Price, per year in advance, fi.oo SATURDAY, APKIt, 19, IQ02. la 1890 an order-in-council was passed reserving the foreshore rights on the Pacific coast of British Columbia. Now according to the last issue of the B. C. Gazette tlKse reserves have been thrown open for the purpose of asserting the province's jurisdiction in the premises, so says the honorable attorney-general. The discussion of this matter has taken up considerable time of the provincial legislature during the past week. Smith Curtis, brought in the following motion: '' That an order of the house be granted for a return of all applications for forshore rights on the Pacific coast of British Columbia during the past two years, giving the name <?f each applicant, the description of the foreshore applied for, and tlie purpose, if any, for which the applicant stated such rights were to be used. " Also, copies of all correspondence from applicants, and from the government, or any member thereof 'to the applicant! respecting the Bride appear to have taken a stand that fishermen's rights are "being interfered with by the provincial government, and that it would throw a number of citizens of British Columbia out of employment, causing to them a severe loss, as well injuring injuring the canning industry of the province. If the government instead of doing as they have done, would insert an amendment in the Fisheries Act barring all but white men and Indians from fishing, we think they would show themselves more the guardian of the people's interests and fishermen's rights. Dewdney's report on the Hope trail survey for the V. V. & E. railway has been read in the legislature The report turns down the trail. It says that it presents great engineering difficulties, the mineral deposits are riot encouraging and there is nothing to warrant the contemplated expenditure. It is rather queer that this information, if true, is thrown broadcast when at the late elections the Hon. Edgar and others had a different story for the public Advertising, makes business a struggle for properly done, It is not merely the "business that is THE .

It i granted, or promised to be granted, ,by the government, and the terms of such grants." In connection with this matter Mr. Mel nues has suggested that the motion be made to include an order for the correspondence between the .local and dominion governments on /che matter. However, this latter, .suggestion was thrown aside as it appears that it would involve so much work that the return would ,n.ot be available this session. In the above lies a tale almost pitiable in the extreme. On the American waters fish traps are allowable. Last year the provincial government appointed a fishery commissioner. Lately, every means possible have been taken advantage of to form a cannery combination known as the British Packers' Association, incorporated under the laws of New Jer- 'sey. Although we are not on the io'side ring of the political affairs of ttus province these facts are suggestive enough for us to form an opinion on these matters, much jve be- liejpie to ,the detriment of the respectable fishermen of the Fraser river. Does it not look as ihough the government having already come under the baneful influence of this American association and have thrown open these foreshore rights to enable this company or any other company that might be singularly incorporated, to acquire these privileges for the purpose of engaging in fish trappin The liberal members for British Columbia have wailed on the members of the dominion government and asked that the Chinese and Japanese reports of the royol commission be printed, and that the government at once carry out what the commissioners recommend. The members asked that this be done this session. The growing financial strength of Canada is evidenced by the fact that in 1896 the debt was $19,476 000 more than the trade. Now the trade exceeds the debt by over $100,000,000. Get your stationery and school books at Faweett's Drug Store. We may be somewhat mistaken but these facts look ominous indeed. One prominent canneryman has already' applied for valuable foreshore rights on the Straits of San Juan de Fuca, and it is possible that ■within the next few weeks every foot of valuable foreshore may be applied for by prominent eanners to tfe detriment of the fishermen- and possibly for the purpose of turning these rights over to the British Packers1 Association. We would like to see the fishermen take this matter up and forward to the government (heir rights in the matter.

I 1 THE DELTA NKWS, SATURDAY, APRIL 19, 1905 How to Ins Ailments < and A Milk Fever.— J better than cure, f few weeks before mild dose of phys days before calvi immediately after milk dry for a few least three times a The fever usually 1 three days 6f calvii dull and heavy, wi and bloodshot eyes rule is useless, and done under skilled will pay to have in cow should be proj with straw and cov and if she can sw: given as soon as posaiuic 1 u/. euioral hydrato, with 1 lb. treacle, in a pint of oatmeal gruel, repeating half the dose every two hours until she recovers consciousness. If she cannot swallow, no attempt should be made to give her anything, as congestion of the lungs, or possibly immediate suffocation, may be the result. Mustard, made into a paste, should be rubbed along each side of the spine, and the cow should be turned two or three times a day and the udder rubbed, but no milk should be taken until the animal is recovering. On recovery, the food should be moderate in amount and given in a moist condition. Diarrhoea or Scouring is as a rule caused by indigestion, brought on by unsuitable food and irregular feeding, or stagnant water. It is essential that the cow be kept warm and clean, and 2 ozs. of castor oil, with about a thaspoonfnl of laudanum, should be given, or in the case of calves an ounce of castor oil with twenty drops of laudanum, and if the calf is in pain, give, three times a day, fifty drops each of laudanum and sulphuric ether. Afterwards tonics should be given to strengthen the weakened membranes. Six or eight drops of hydrochloric acid, in ' a dessertspoonful of whisky, with a half-tumbler of water, given daih ' is a good tonic. Half the dose for calves; and the latter should be fed on new milk given with a little lime water three or four times a day. Cripples, or brittleness and. softness of the bones, is generally caused by want of lime in the soil. It is said that separated milk with bran will prevent the disease. During the winter the milk and bran should be mixed to make a mash twelve hours before required; it then ferments sufficiently to make it just warm, and the cows will take it without trouble. This food will give an increased supply of milk. Tuberculous Disease.—The skin of a healthy cow is soft and loose over the flanks, but in tuberculous disease it may become hard with adhesions. The hind quarters of the udder become hard, but not tender. The glands above the udder, high up between the quarters, are generally affected; those above the affected quarter becoming enlarged and hardened. The disease is caused by the cacillus tuberculosis and these are sometimes found to exist in the milk ducts of cows which are apparently quite healthy, A 6jgn of the disease may be noticed in the milk, which becomes tinged yellow, instead of the blue shade good milk has when just drawn. Milk with this yellow tinge should be Carefully examined for the preaence of the bacilli, as, if the milk is infected with the tuberale bacilli and cousumed by children or persons in delicate health, there is grert danger of tubercular infection.

One jlood of a cow affected ease is said to contain i of these organisms, is of a most dangerous and contagious nature, and the greatest precaution is necessary in the case of an affected animal, as the spreading of its dung over grass may infect whole herds. In the case of an animal dying from this disease, its carcass should either be burned or burried at least 6 or 7 feet deep to prevent the bacilli from forming spores, and to kill them off, as they cannot exist if no oxygen is present, or if the temperature is below 54 ° F. ; and at the depth named oxygen is not present in sufficient quantity, nor the temperature high enough, for the existence of the organisms. Typhoid fever, scarlet fever, cholera, etc,, are caused by special bacilli; and as cases have occurred where the outbreak of these diseases has been traced' back to the milk supply, it is necessary that the greatest care should be taken to use only pure water in washing cans and other utensils. Stagnant or pond, or well water situated near drains should never be used. Water that may appear quite bright and clear may be charged with the organisms, and simply rinsing out a milk pail with it may carry contagion far and wide, as milk is a perfect medium for the growth of the bacilli.
