JOHN SPITTflL SHOnWICt
Inquest Held and Remains Interred���Povin-
cial Police Tracking.
John Spittal, whose body was
found on Sunday night in a shack
net far from Terra Nova cannery
on Lulu Island, was murdered.
That much was determined by
tbe Coroner'* jury, which on Monday sat in inquest upon tke remains.
Coroner Greer, of Steveston, presided at the inquest, and the jury
brought in a verdict tbat the deceased had come to bi* death at the
hand* of persons at preaent unknown.
The provincial police, under direction of acting Superintendent
Bullock Webster, now kave the
matte? in hand, and it is just possible that the murderer or murderers of John Spittal may not long
remain unknown.
Tbe remains of tke murdered
man were buried oa Tuesday afternoon. Upon an examination of
the remain* by Mr. Bullock Web-
ater thi* morning, it wa* developed
that Spittal had been shot once on
the right side ef th* head. Tbe
ballet, evidently from a rifle of
some power, penetrated bis bead on
the right side just above the ear,
and passing clear through, came
'out just above the ear on the right
side. Spittal had alio been shot in
the brcsst with ��� bullet from a
rifle. It entered nearly in the
centre of the breast, and in penetrating it attack two ribs, breaking
them, aad then made its exit
through the right side.
The body waa in such a state of
decomposition that it could be
withheld from the grave no longer,
and that is tbe reason it was interred on Tuesday. Provincial Constable Spain, of New Westminster,
and Constable Murchison, of Steveston, arc working on the case in an
endeavor to clear up the mystery
in wbich the case is shrouded.���
The Province.
The Montreal Star's London cable
says: Opponents here of the Government's policy re Chinese labor for
South Africa made a great apread
yesterday of Canadian criticism.
The only direct opposition come*
from Professor Goldwin Smith,
Hon. Richard McBride, Prime Minister of British Columbia, and Mr.
John Fleet, President of the Dominion Trades Congress. Other Canadian authorities seem to agree
with Sir Wilfred Laurier that the
matter is not one in which Canada
should intervene, and that it
should be left for the people of South
Africa to decide.
There is official authority to deny
the statement current here that thc
Chinese Government is again endeavoring to compel the British Government to coerce British Columbia into * repeal of the anti-
Chines* legislation before the Chinese are permitted to go to Sooth
Africa. The fact is, the negotiia-
tioas between the British and
Chinese Governments are proceeding quite smoothly, are strictly
limited to the framing ol regulation*
and have nothing whatever to do
with the larger and more complicated questions involved in anti-
Chinese legislation elsewhere.
CIGARETTES THE CAUSE.
"The school board* of Santa Ana
found that for some reason the boys
in the public schools were nowhere
nearly as proficient in their studies
aa thc girls and an investigation
was instituted to discover the cause,
whether the boy* were being neglected by their teachers, or whether a lack of discipline was chargeable with the fact that the boys
were not doing well. The investigation was had, and it wis found that
ninety per cent, ofthe boys between
the ages of twelve aad fifteen years
who attended the public schools
smoke cigarettes. The investigation
did not require to be pushed any
further. It is *ufficently well known
that cigarette smoking blunts the
intellect as well as undermines the
constitution, and if ninety per. cent.
of the Santa Ana boys stay with
the habit, ninety per cent, of the
Santa Ana boys will be failures ia
life, and no help for it."���Onward.
Canon Hilton went to Yale College, as chaplain, last Tuesday, returning on Tharaday,

P. Ripliagcr left yesterday for
Surrey Centre, Langley, Westminster, Vancouver and Lulu Islaad,
with Glengarry Patchen. Mr.
Riplinger has three Standard-bred
celta under bis care, just now? A
filly by Kiag Patchen, out .of a
Stormont mare owned by Wm.
Gowdy; a sorrel colt by King Patchen, ont of Toredo; and a 2-year-
old stallion by King Patchea, tnt
of the well known Murray mar*, of
Langley.
Glengarry Patchen is a beautiful
chestnut with white strip in face, he
is of good size, stands 16 hands snd
weigh* 1170 lbs. He ha; won first
prize in every class he was shown
in, in New Westminster and Victoria. His racing career has been
such for a green horse that it is unquestionable, starting 10 times, last
summer, getting eight firsts, one
second aad out of the money once.
He has shown the ability to go ia
s.05 sure; stepping trial miles in
a.17; tf-miles iu 1.05).; quarters
in 30J_ sees.; eighths ia 15 sees.
A 2-minute gsit in one summer's
training. He is a 4-year-old. rising
5, and was brad by W. Walker, of
Steveston, B. C, the present owner.
His sire is Ring Patchen by Mam-
brino King; his dam waa Juanita,
sired by Altoo, her dam is by Pathfinder. Truly a fine strain of racing horseflesh.
The above will ataad till about
Ju)y 1st, after wbich date he will
go over to Washington, etc. He
will be entered in all the stake race*
(or wbich he is eligible, on the
North Pacific circuit.

CULTIVATING A KIND
VOICE
If one would have a kind voice,
says the Boston Journal, one must
start in youth to cultivate it, and be
on the watch at all times, while at
work and while at play. Thc kind
voice must Speak the thought of a
kind heart.
It is in play that a sharp voice is
most easily acquired. Boys and girls
say words in a quick, harsh, tone,
utmost like the snap of a whip.
If one of them is vexed, the voice
sounds a* if it were made up. of a
snarl, a whine, and a bark. It
speaks worse than the heart feels.
The ill-will is louder in the tone
than in the words.
In mirth one may carelessly allow
one's voice to grow shrill and unpleasant. Some people have a sharp
home voice, and keep a company
voice for use elsewhere. It is a
safe rule to use one's best voice at
home.���Sabbath-school Visitor.
