C.P.R. Will Not Operate Gr Ferry
Rumor to that Erfect Emphatically Denied by Mr. Marpole—Some
Reasons Given (or Not Doing So.
In pursuance ul a report
niinii lias been current ot late
tu the ellect that lllc C.l'.K

operation across Hurrard Inlet
within a short ]H.-riod ol time,
a representative ul the. Kxpress
uillcd upon Mr. K. Marpole,
general superintendent ol tlu-
C.l'.K., and was cordially
piHited an interview. In response lo a question as to whether he would coiilirin a report
lo the ellect that the C. 1'. R.
intending establishing a Ireighl
lei rv lo tlio North Shore, Mr
Al.ii pole made a prompt and
emphatic denial, declaring that
he had no knowledge of am
such intention upon the part ol
that coinpanv and in further
conversation outlined the reasons why a departure ol such a
nature would bo ill advised upon the part of thc C.P.R. The
cost ol the system would repre
sent a large sum ul liionev including the building of a barge,
the construction ol sidings,
wharves aiid tracks. A lurther
(-difficulty would lm mil willl in
the matter of handling cars nu
the north shore for whuh wort
tin* C l'.R would have li. di
peiul oll some other company

uul pav to keep a locomotive
and clew on the sortl side to

llu which would iillel. In view
nl the fact that thr i(instruction of Second Narrows bridge
was drawing mar and that lhe
C.l'.R. in common with all
On motion ol Aldermen downing rights over that structure,
iu ivhich event, the entire car

Isold**, ihe proposition iii| ur
I snme the expenditures Involved
in such a departure could not
be supported on sound business
I principles.
i Mr. Marpole discussed at COS*
sidirablc length the present situation on the north shore as to
industries, transportation, real-
'ly, etc., and showed himsell lul-
lly alive to all the salient fca-
jlurc-s of lotal activities, Ile had
iniinly taken advantage of a
little leisure lo personally visit
North Vancouver aller an absence ul over two years and had
bass very favorably inipressi-i
with what he had seen. The
j visit had been altogether . personal anil he was quite coiili.
dent lhat his ollicial capacity
had not been iccugni/ed by .my
persuns whom he had met iipuii

The death occurred Sunday

lo, aged 50, at the family residence, 3rd street, near the cor-
of St. David's Ave., after an
Illness cove-ring a number of
years. Deceased was a native
of Germany and with his family was a resident of North
Vancouver for about two years.
Thev lived formerly in Oldtown,
Maine. Mr. Schiplo had 'been
an invalid ior some time and it
was in search of thc parent's
health that the family moved
west. The western climate,
while being in a measure beneficial, did not work anything like
a permanent cure and he was
confined to his house a good
part ol the time. I<clt to
mourn his loss is one daughter,
Annie, and a son Krnest and a
niece, Mrs. W. H. Parkin of 2nd
street east. Neither of thc children arc married and have always remained at the family
fireside.

BAND CONCERT
Thc North Vancouver brass

pcaraiHe in a public capacity

' pected is that their first appear

DON'T CHANCE OUR NA.MP.
StraUicona,   Alberta,
April 8th, miu.
To the Express,
North Vancouver.
Dear Sir—ln your last issue 1
notice that the Ratepayers' Association makes the piopusiiiun
lo change lhe name ot Nortli
Vancouvei. I thiuk the Ratepayers are making a big mistake. 1 will give you my reasons, lu the lirst place, Vancouver is advertised the world
over and when people arrive iu
South Vancouver, thc real cs-
i tatc man takes them over to
North Vancouver and sell* them
property "in Vancouvei." Wu.,
naturally you would think you
were in Vancouver. Now I was
111 your city in January and 1
bought some property in North
Vancouver thinking it was all
Vancouver. Now 1 want lo
point out to you that Strath-
cona used to be South Edmonton, but is "Strathcona" now
and the people want lo have the
name changed again. \Ui\ i
Because l-.dmoiiton is known
thc world over thc same as is
Vancouver. South Vancouver
helps to advertise North Vancouver, therefore 1 advocate not
having the name changed. I expect to be in Vancouver in ten
days and expect to buy some
more property, but I will bin
in South Vancouver because I
want some property in Vancouver, not in Lonsdale, bocau.-e 1
think Vancouver is one of the
Iiest cities on the west coast. I
remain       Vours n-specUully,
F. HARRIS.

J Substantial progress is being
made ott the new lerry wharf at
the foot of Lonsdale Ave. by
'the contractors in charge,during
the. past lew days. Up to about
a week ago attention had been
called to the slow manner in
which work was being conducted and the matter was taken up
by the Ferry commissioners
with thc result that they instructed their secretary to express the Hoard's disapproval.
With some line weather now the
west side ol Uie cement work
would probably be well on toward completion in a few weeks
and trallic changed to that side
to allow the balance ol the old
! wharf being torn down and tin-
cast   portion   of the reinforced
cement work proceeded with. At
the present quite a strip of the
flooring cement has lieen pul in
place over lhe not work of steel
rods and the south und oi the
false structure is being rusln-d
as sueedily as conditions will
permit.

The lollowing verses .uc limn
the pen of North Vancouver's
Hard, Mr. D. 0, Dick ;
This world of fate
Rolled on in slate,
Singing its happy sonnet ;
1'ntil one morn
With lew to warn
She bimi|H-d against a Comet.
Deep in lhe seams
01 earth hound rocks
Hewed out bv human forces
A man and woman
Lost their way
While earth reduced to ashes
When to the light
Again they came
There were no human masses
No living form
Hut lifeless corpses
From llalley's Comet g.ists
The moral of tlu si-
I.iiu-s of mine
Is sense on coiiinioii bases :
To build ourselves
Hind walls of rock
And thus preserve i.*,r races.
