The Rossland amateurs again are entitled to all kinds of credit. The plays staged were two, the first being "Batty" J and the second "Snowslide." The first, a curtain raiser, was excellent but would bear even more elaboration. The parts taken were only three, a play writing crank, (Charles O'Neill), a musical crank (John Hooper), and the servant maid (Miss Winifred Grdwlejt)'. O'Neill and Miss Crowley are both new to the Rossland dramatic stage and both are decided acquisitions. Miss Crowley ia altogether an amateur, but one that has plenty of histrionic talent whioh merely re quires cultivation. She sustained her part well, several bits of busi ness doing credit to a far better better actress than she ie at pre sent rilAI/r Union Made I! oVIUIVl cigars!! •• W. B. and.... Grown Grant MADE IN ROSSLAND. ij j0e bright, Manufacturer, jj ZZmmmmmmmmmamaaaa*********m*m*m*************mm*****m* A certain not unnatural ner vousuess in the opening scene showed in a rather a gauche manner which soon wore off and the part was sustained so as to bring out the parts of the two crankB, which is just what was required. Of the two men it would be* hard to say whioh was the worst orank. In the aot was introduced several songs. A solo, "The Bogey Man," sung by MisB Crowley, words by W. J. Nelson, and musio by John Hooper, was well reoeived and was very effective. Another, a parody When Reuben Comes to Town," sung as a duet by Charles O'Neill and Miss Crowley, bronght down the house and a topioal verse vigorously scoring tbe mayor was vooi- ferouely enoored. "Snowslide" is a very pretty farce comedy and was exceedingly well enaoted, W. J. Nelson trod the Rossland boards for the first time, and did well as Uncle John, and Miss Crowley as Penelope s servant maid, again rendered a eoubrette part with effectiveness and a ohange from that of the maid in "Batty" that showed a histrionic appreciation which is rare. But the principal parte ot the play Mr. I and Mrs. Featherstone were! taken by Mr. and Mrs. Hooper and sustained with a foroe of conception and a vividness of portrayal whioh would have done honor to more ambitious boards than those oi Rossland. The walking parts were well sustained by Harold Ellis and Miss Eileen Bennett who both seemed at home. Both made ae muoh of their parts as oould well be done, and the latter's coquettish- nesB was very effective aB a byplay. Between the acts were several specialties which were good. Mies The morning broke lowering, bnt by 8 e'clock the olouds were rising and the sun broke through, ashamed of himself and proceeded quickly to dry up the damp sidewalks. Immediately crowds of holiday makers, whose numbers showed that few people had left last night, except thoses imperatively compelled to do so by duty, thronged the avenues which presented a lively appearance for the second day of the Carnival. Appropriately enough the day began with the ohildren who, parading down from the Central, sohool oame along Columbia avenue several hundred strong, forming an extremely pretty feature of the programme. Taking up their position on the raised benches, the little ones sang several patriotio songs in a manner which evinced careful training and the spectators listened to an address of welcome by the worthy mayor and a patriotio speech in his own inimitable manner by W. J. Nelson. Next came the Children's: Foot Raosa. 100-Yard Foot Race for Boys under 16 years of age. 1st prize, value $15; 2nd prize, value $10. Columbia Avenne.

A duet between Miss Crowley and Mr. O'Neill was also well reoeived and well sung. The orohestra was quite a feature of the evening.

Money was pretty equally divided between the Rosslanders and the Nelsonitcs but the shrewder ones notioed that Nelson had the beBt course, and in so olose a match as was anticipated, this ought to secure them the victory: Be that as it may, after a closely contested race Nelson drew away and finished a wheel's breadth ahead of the Rossland team, tbe Grand Forks boys ooming in a good third. Tha Wat Taat » Chagrined at the loss of the Hub and Hub race, the Rossland team did their utmost to capture the wet test and their efforts were rewarded by suocess, Grand Forks getting second money. Nelson would likely enough have won, owing to their greater speed, but aB the team failed to make connection with the coupling, they were out ol it. The times were Rossland 26 1-5 seconds and Grand Forks, 28 1-3. Singla Drilling. The single drilling contest was olose bnt was won by John Palm who succeeded in putting the steel down 12 3-4 inohes.

Box !X>2 Rossland, B. C. IMPERIAL POSTAGE. An important resolution passed unanimously by the Congress of Chambers of Commerce lately in session at Montreal, says the Toronto Globe, recommended a reduction in the present rate on British newspapers and periodicals coming to Canada. Mr. Parkes, M. P. of Birmingham, in moving the resolution, clearly pointed out the objection to the present, rate when he said: "Americans send to Canada for one cent as much as Englishmen oan send for eight cents. Bri- ish publications now entering Canada are largely American reprints containing American advertisements." He also expressed the opinion that while trade might follow the flag it more frequently followed the advertisements. Thie is one of the most businesslike views on the subject that has been enunciated. For while in a purely sentimental sense a cheap rate might be very desirable, unless the sentiment oan be supported by strong business reasons there is little likelihood that any change will be made. If the British public oan be convinced that it is to their advantage to give i,heir pub lications an equal chance with those of the Americans.the Imperial postofnoe officials will not be slow in complying with the dictates of publio opinion. Theonly reason why a reduotion has not been made ere thie is, of course, the loss of revenue that suoh a step would of necessity cause. The loss of seven cents, whioh it would be necessary to make in order that the rate might not exoeed that charged by the United States on periodicals coming into Canada, would have to be made up in some way, and this other way is exaotly what Mr. Austen Chamberlain, the Britiah Postmaster-General; declares himself unable at present to see. The feasibility of a cheap trans-cceanio service has been well demonstrated by our Dominion Postal Department. Critics of Mr. Austen Chamberlain's policy ask how it is that Canada oan afford to do it, and Great Britain oannot. But Mr. Chamberlain has so far remained firm.

The fight between Queenan and Mullins last night at the International ended after 20 rounds .in a draw, neither man being able to knock the other out though several times during the fight it seemed as if Queenan would succeed in that endeavour. Of the two men, both weighing 138 pounds, Mullins the advantage in height and reach bat Queenan in hiB stockier build and neater Btyle of boxing quite equal ized these advantages. Mullins waB the more active of the two but Queenan had considerably the heavier punch. Mullins showed the better generalship inasmuch as he never failed to take every ad vantage he could of the effect of any serious blow which he succeeded in landing. On the other hand Queenan failed moro than once in going after his man when he had him floored, praotically giving him time to reoover. Supporters of Mullins deolare that the taking of the count was only a ruse of whioh his opponent was afraid but if this were the case under the Queensbery rules Queenan was entitled to the fight. It was getting close to twelve o'clock before the principals started on the mill. Dan Guthrie waB ohosen referee and well he did his work, breaking olean through the frequent clinches. Dan Thomas was timekeeper. The first round was rather tame. Mullins developed a curious style of boxing with both hands before his face down and crouching- ing, swinging with both hands especially the right and ducking cleverly. He had a oatlike crouob and spring that made it very difficult to get at him despite the apparent wildness of his fighting. With every olinoh MullinB managed to get in a jab on the side, neck and occasionally over the kidneys of his opponent whioh must have been very telling. Queenan fought more on the defensive, keeping the head well back, slinging a terrible left and reserving his right for a settler. In the second round Queenan managed to get one in on his opponent's jaw which nearly settled the fight, Mullins going down and not rising till the count was half taken, but rising full of fight and aggressive. From the third till the eighth round there was little advantage on either side. Mullins mostly foroed the fighting but was unable to get in a decisive blow, although landing as frequently ae hiB adversary. Iu the eighth round Queenan again succeeded in getting his opponent hard and had him against the ropes but did not press hiB advantage. . Tho ninth round waB Mullins'. He oame up smiling though evidently winded, and went lieroely for his antagonist whose olever ducking saved him more than once, although on one occasion it led him into a slip whioh might have had worse results had Mullins been /orn thin ? No! Washed thin! That's so when common soap is used.

Queenan had decidedly the best of the next round especially the first part but Mullins was full of light and came up aggtessively enough in the eleventh ronnd regarding little the fierce jabs administered by tbe waiting Queenan. The fighting told on him for in the next round Queenan for the first time in the fight had decidedly the best of the game and bets were offered that Mullins could not last out. In the thirteenth round both men started by sparring for wind and Mullins gets in fiercely on the faoe, Queenan returning compliment ineffectually. The next round saw Mullins again apparently getting the beBt of the encounter, handing some hard ones to Queenan that made him grunt. Queenan got his chance in the fifteenth round and knocked his opponent clean off his legs, who rolled over in trying to rise, and took a count of eight before getting up. Again the advantage was not pressed by the wary Seattle boy. From this on to the olose Queenan never got another opening, but on the contrary Mullins punished him every time he had an opening. Had his blows been more effective, especially one in the last round Mullins might have come out winner. The decision of the referee was oonsidered perfeotly just. ^WWW •WyWWWC531£^>;CS2WWWWW WiWtW.
