TO KILL
A NURSE
Washington Negro Poisons
With Arsenic an Entire Family.
Washington, March 18—Dr. T.
Taylor, of the Btate board of medi-
exarniners, and his entire family
were poisoned yesterday by coffee
and hash containing arsenic put
there by James Walker, a negro
driver, who had often threatened
to kill the negro nurse. When arrested rat poison containing arsenic
was found in Walker's pocket.
Prompt aid saved the poisoned
family, all of whom were seriously
ill. The negro has confessed that
he put the poison in the coffee and
the hash, but "only to kill the old
nurse who had conjured him."
Feeling is against the negro and
Governor Aycott has granted the
sheriff's request to call out troops
to protect him.
Hongkong, March 18.—General
Ma has been defeated by a rebel
force who have taken possession of
Fanchong. They have killed antl
captured all the mandarins and
have looted the town.
General Ma attacked the rebel
strongholds, but after an engagement lasting two days was forced
to retreat. The rebels then established their headquarter at Fang-
chong. The rebellion is spreading
rapidly in the provinces of Kwangsi,
Kwangtung, and Yunnan.
A letter received here from Toen-
pai, 50 miles from Kwangchao,
says all business is suspended
there owing to fear of the rebels.
Marshal Su is at Mienchao, and
Ma at Kwachao. Both of'these
commanders are awaiting reinforcements. They wish to join their
forces, but the rebels are holding
all the intervening passes and prevent a junction of the government
troops. Many of the imperial
soldiers are joining the rebels owing to the superior pay offered
them, and the opportunity for looting.
The rebel leader is Hung Ming.a
a relative of the celebrated Hung
Sou Chuen,a leader of the Taeping
rebellion.
Tonight will appear at the Opera
I house the Alabama Warblers, who

strong commendations from the
press, and a return engagement
from the management of the thea-
tor there. The show is a vaudeville
show, with the usual variety of
jokes, recitations, dances, songs
and burlesques. The Nelson Miner
Bays that the performance was one
that was enjoyed by every person
attending it.

BRITISH COLUMBIA DINNER,
THE CUP
GOES EAST
But  the   Winnipeg   Vies
Put Up a Magnificent
Game.
Winnipeg, March 18,—Although
the fates have decreed that the
Stanley Cup must go east, the
Winnipeg hockey public is in a
measure reconciled to its loss by
by the magnificent showing of the
Vies in tbe last and deciding game
and the ft-eling here is is that the
home players had the worst of the
luck. The champions were entertained at a banquet at the Queens
after the match when Mr. McFarlane, who gave so much satisfaction in refereeing the games, was
presented with a magnificent gold
watch by the Victoria club.
St. Patrick's day was brought
to a close last evening by a crowded house, attending the Miners'
Union hall upon the occasion of a
grand musical, dramatic, literary
entertainment in aid of the Church
of tlieSacred Heart. Mrs. Fitz-Patrick again distinguished herself as
a most competent manager ofstaj:e
productions, as crowded houses
have recently testified.
Parts first and second consisted
of admirable selections of songs,
recital ions and dances. Part third
was devoted to the production of
that characteristic little farce
comedy ''Thirty Minutes for Refreshments."
Whilst it would be almost invidious to make comparisons, well
merited words of praise are due to
Miss Katie Purcell for the artiBtic
rendition of that favorite "The
Last Rose of Summer," which
caueed great enthusiasm and demanded an encore.
For tho pxthetic way in which
Mrs Fred Ritchie sang "Killarney"
great praise is due and her inimitable singing and acting. Her
encore, "1 Want to be'the Leading
Lady," fairly brougnt doivn the
house.
Mrs. R. H. Hughes in a pleasing
manner gave "Barney O'Hea" and
was encored.
Mr. Percy Raven sang "Believe
Me of All Those Endearing Young
Charms" in a finished manner, his
well trained tenor voice being
hoard to great advantage and was
certainly a musical treat. HiB encore was equally well rendered and
greatly appreciated.
Mrs. William Davies established
the fact that she is an elocutionist
of rare ability.
MisB Empey sang in her usual
excellent style "Last Words, "and
an encore.
The farce was exceedingly well
acted, being provocative of intense
amusement to (he audience and
great credit is due to all who participated, especially to Mr. R. H.
Hughes in the character of John
Downley, a peaceful old bachelor.
Mr. Hughes is a finished exponent of the histrionic art and is
justly considered the John L. Toole
of the west.

LEAD MINING.
The real reason why Ihe lead
minor in ISriliah Columbia is at a
disadvantage, says the Victoria
Colonist, is because ils lead passes
through the hands of the United
States middleman before it reaches
either the home Canadian market
or tbe British market, or the foreign market. This is a monstrous
condition of affairs, but neither
the responsibility nor the remedy
lies to the hand of any provincial
government. The responsibility
lies upon the Dominion government, which has refused to give the
British Columbia lead miner the
home market for lead. The remedy lies in the same hands if the
Dominion government choose to
adopt it. It costs the British Columbia miner one cent a pound
extra expense, to market hi s lead
in Great Britain; it should not
costso much. It cost him the same
or more to market his lead in Montreal. It should not cost him anything. He should be protected in
the home market. The difficulty
under which it labors now,is a difficulty of market, not of manufacture. Nothing which the provincial government might attempt to
assist the manufacture, could obviate the necessity for what the
Dominion government has so far
refused to do to improve the market.
MUNICIPAL LIGHT.
Ab shewn in an editorial yesterday the water department of this
municipality gave a net profit for
the year of over $5000, including
the value of plant purchase and not
used and some arrearage uncollected but collectable. That this
money did not go directly into the
coffers of the city is entirely owing
to the facyhat expenditures had to
be made on capital account, i. e.,
the extension of the system, and
the city had not the capital to do
this. Still the city is considerably
the gainer since if it bad had to
borrow the money it would have to
have been paid back plus interest.
And what has been done with
the water department, could have
been done with the light system and
can yet be done. It is useless to
urge that that too much will be
paid for the system as at present
installed, if it is taken over. Too
much was paid for the water system. What did the city get for
its money in this deal? Every
part of it lias had to have been replaced with the exception of one or
two small portions which are still
causing trouhle and vexation and
expense. The city bought the
right to do business and the right
to do business is worth the money
that was paid for it. That does
not make Die transaction any the
lesi a robbery, but it was a legal
robbery. The Rossland water and
light company had the city cinched
in that deal, and as soon as we
come to make a deal over the lighting franchise then it will have the
city cinched some more and will in
addition to the price asked two
years ago charge for all the worn
out "improvements" that have
been make since. It is a nice proposition and the beauty of it iB that
it gets even more pleasent every
year that the Goodeve ring persuades the council to put off the
deal. The citizens voted for its
purchase two years ago and the
RoBBland water and light company
and A. S. Goodeve together was
that they did not get what they
wanted.   The Rossland water and
light company has the cinch and
they, like the city council, 'don't
give a dam.' The city has got to
come to the terms offered, and there
is no way out of it. But the sooner
it is done the cheaper for the city.
NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The government is taking
i:s time about bringing
down that redistribution bill and
in the meantime members are introducing all kinds of legislation
just as if there was no limit to the
period of lheir occupancy of their
seats.

Professor Robert E. Ely, the
secretary of the League for Political Education says:
"The wage earners of the United
States number some fifteen million
men, according to the federal census, women, boys and) girls of ten
years of age or over. Their average individual earnings are $400 a
year. But on the average two
persons are dependent on the one
wage earner for support, which
means that three people must live
on the average monthly wage of
$33 33. Investigation his shown
that about a quarter of a working-
man's wage goes for rent, and
about half to food and fuel. Thus,
the average workingman with a
family of two, will have left each
month, after paying for the roof
over his head and the food needful to Bustain life, about $.80 a
month for clothing, medicine, recreation, and a bank account
against a rainy day—or the time
when he Bhall become superannuated.
Professor Ely very naturally
says in the face of these figures
that the terms of our economic
problem cannot be solved by thrift
alone.' And indeed the poorest
encouragement to thrift is the
Knowledge that with the utmost
pinching economy for years the
saving of a family will be inadequate to meet the needs of six
months of idleness or two months
of costly sickness.
The Vancouver News-Advertiser
says in comment on this:
"Meanwhile men Jike Rockefeller,
Pierpont Morgan and Carnegie
earn by exploiting labor and using their own and many others' capital—to put the case mildly—at
least twenty times aB much as the
utmost merit of their capacity real
ly entitles them to obtain as a fair
distribution of the profits, in respect to their admittedly great
abilities as organizers of commerce.
The result will probably be, unleBS
the early future brings about a
big change, a tremendous outbreak
of a destructive and anarchistic
socialism in the United States.
Before the wave of feeling the ordinary constructive socialist will
find his efforts hopeless."
It is reported that the eighteen
Japanese who left. Vancouver for
Atlin on the Amur the other evening were engaged to work on Mr.
Fetherstonhaugh's property there.
An informant of the Victoria Times
says that the Japanese consul in
the Terminal City has received
word from the Miners' Association
of Atlin to the effect that they had
sufficient men to do the work without importing Japanese, and urging him to keep his countrymen
from going there. He further says
that upon inquiry he learned that
the Japanese were to receive $50
per month and board, a wage that
many white men would work for.
It is feared that trouble will ensue
if the Asiatics enter the mining
camp, as it iB believed that they
would prove the vanguard of very
undesirable immigration and inaugurate intolerable   competition.

Smith Curtis, M. P. P., at Victoria, in an address said:
"Trade unions have been attacked in the old country recently,
and apparently with success, so as
to make trade union funds liable
for acts of their officers during a
strike.
"Now, according to a recent injunction isBued in England, one
man cannot go to another and say,
'There is a strike on," and urge
him not to go and work, or he
would, if enjoined and persisting
in it, be guilty of contempt of
court, and the court can immediately lock him up as long as it
likes, even for a whole lifetime.
No one until recently knew this to
be law. I am bringing in a bill to
protect unions, and if the DunBmuir government throws that bill
out all your unioni. in this province will be liable to have their
funds taken away on account of
some officer's aots.
"I am a gieat believer in trade
unions. Trade unions are why labor is now at all fairly   dealt with.
In the British house of commons
the other day Mr. Caine asked the
secretary for the colonies if his
attention had been called to lhe
memorial of the Bengal chamber of
commerce to the government of
India regarding the legislation
now before the parliament of the
commonwealth of Australia under
which no postal contract will be
given except on condition that
white labor only be employed on
the mail steamers; if he was aware
that such legislation would inflict
injury on a number of British Indian subjects of the crown who pursue a seafaring life and if the Australian government had any control over the methods by which
owners of British steamers might
deBire to man or otherwise work
their vossels.
Mr. Chamberlain—I have not
seen the memorial in question. We
cannot prescribe to the commonwealth parliament the conditions
which it should require in its mail
contract. It does not attempt to
control the manning of British
steamers, except in the case of
steamers seeking to enter into contract with the government of Australia for the carriage of mails.
Mr. Caine—Have we no right of
control over these steamers?
Mr. Chamberlain—They have
the right to control the conditions
of their own contracts.
The strike has been settled a
the Le Roi mine, but it it is still
in force at the other mines as before.
Negotiations are being carried
on with the other mining companies of the camp which have been
effected by the strike but they are
not yet completed.
Working men in outside camps
are advised to keep away from
Rossland for the present,
aB there are more union
men at the present time here
than can secure employment until
a settlement has been effected with
the other mining companies.
