Grant, after hearing argument i-n connection with the marking of ballots bv the deputy returning oflicer and his clerks at the Ward One polling booth at the recent District ol North Vancouver elections, set aside the election ol Messrs. Lawson and Thompson. While expressing his opinion on the stupidity of the action, he had no fault to find with the returning officor, and while lhat oflicer had offered to pay the expenses ol another station he commended the council in refusing the oiler on those grounds. Mr. \V. K. Hums rep resented the district and Mr. Dotigal Donaghy the successlul petitioner, Mr. Kdwin Wagg. The now election has been set for Feb. 26 and nominations will be held on Keb. 22.

The at- ; tendance numbered about sixty couples. The features of the (UtflCe were the excellent iiiusie provided bv llarpur's four-piece orchestra and the line condition in which the floor was in. However, in spite of these conditions one fact stood out prominently and that was that Norlh Vancouver is growing very rapidly and accommodations sufficient to meet demands a year ago are now inadequate. The local brethren are now numbering the days when work will have been started on tlieir Caslk- hall which is expected to meet all to-dato requirements. 1 At a late hour Mr. S. Walker brought on tlic, refreshments and for a half hour the demands ol the inner sell were accommodated. Following refreshments dancing was resumed until about 2 a. 111. when late cars which were in attendance con- veved the merrymakers home. Mr. and Mrs. B. J.

Hamilton, loremau ol the Vancouver waterworks at Capilano, waa lound Saturday morning, in a log jam about 50 yards irom the mouth of lhc i-apilano river by two Imll,ms, Joiiii) Dick and Edward Joseph. Since the drowning, which oe- 1 currcd at the Capilano dam, on the 14th ol last month, no trace ol cither ol the bodies had been ■ iouuet lill then, when the two Indiana who were cutting some logs ai the place uientioud,dia* covered the body floating, apparently treed by their opera- nous in moving the logs. Tho authorities at Vancouver were •lotilii-d aud instructions were sent Uo take the remains to North Vancouver, where the inquest was held in the city hall, by Coroner Diplock. While being in the water ior nearly three weeks, decomposition was barely noticeable, und only a couple ol bruises ou thc head, oue over lhe eye and the olher on the back ol the skull, and the missing shoes, were the only evidences ol the grim cir- ciiiiistaiiics ol thc tragedy. The inquest was held at 3 o'clock Saturday alternoon,and the lollowing were empanelled on the jury: T. Shepherd,lore- man, K. Tarn, K. Redding, T. Prime, *'. Ucitorow, and U.A. Mfljtaa 1 hi; lirst witnesses called were Jouuy Uuk and Edward .lostpn They tcstilu-d as to Uie circum- Itaacei attending lhc lnuling ol lhc body lhat morning, while moving logs in the Lapilano near the mouth. lu the interval in the proieed- ings, which occurred untal the witnesses Irom the dam had arrived, thc coroner made rcler- 'eiiee lo the delegatian irom the j Trades a-iui Labor Council, Vancouver, who were requesting the Provincial Government lo a- nitlld the Coroner s ael, so as lo make it compulsory 10 hold inquests ou caaea ol this nature. Coroner Diplock read the act relating to this and expressed- thc opinion that the point was covered accordiag u> tns interpretation Uu jury, alter con- isidcring the lads, handed the eoroner a written slatellient, ii.uiuil): "A. U. Diplock, Coroner. Thc lollowing jury at an inquest held this day 111 the dtj hall, Norih Vancouver on the body ol Geo* Hamilton, beg to report ihal they have looked into lhe Coroner s act and do not see the necessity tor a delegation interviewing the government lo make a compulsory ior .1 coroner to hold au inqucsl, as 111 thc opinion ot the undersigned.
