NUMBER 27
CITY COUNCIL
A confusion of dates as Iietween
the advertisement, which read
August 17ill, and the typewritten
notices, which read the iHth, necessitated lhe postponement ol the
court of revision on the Eighth
street improvements, which was to
have lieen held Monday evening.
The court of tevision will he held
on Monthly, 24th inst.
Aid. May, Irwin, Crickmay,
Wheeler, Smith and Braim were
present at the council meeting,
with Mayor Kealy in the chair.
Thomas Deasey, president of
the 11. C. association of fire chiefs,
wrote, inviting the mayor and aldermen 10 attend the annual con
\ inl mn <d the association, lo In*

A belated invitation was read
from lhe sii rt'l.iry of the New
Westminstei citizens couiniittee,
inviting the mayor and aldermen
lo the reception to the returning
lacrosse club: clerk to acknowledge.
C. A. Lett wrote, calling alien
tion to the unhealthy condition ol

drain, .M.l. Irmn suggested that
it Mould he well to have these

chairman, recommended the payment of accounts totalling |i 100;
adopted. Hoard ol works, Aid.
Irwin chairman, recommended the
iHvineiit of accounts totalling
II121) 32; adopted. Waterworks
committee, Aid. Smith c'uirnian,
recommended payment ol accounts
totalling (58.31; apopted.
Under reports of committees,
Aid May stated thai the hank had
agreed to accept the deposit (or
sale of 1172,000 in city debentures,
as per the request ol the district
council.
The mayor asked i( the bank
hail agreed to advance any moncv
upon the debentures when deposited. Aid. May replied that no such
arrangement had been mule. The
mayor could nol see how the handing of tlie debentures over to the
bank was going to assist the district in any way in thai case, where
as on the other hand it would be
detrimental to the city, as it would
laddie the situation with certain
conditions, whose lulliluu 111 would
be exacted hy the bank, once the
debentures were in their possession.
Aid. Irwin suggested tint the
city would be prepired to issue
the debentures to the district it
the going rate ol Hy cents, with 111
terest, in payment of outstanding
accounts. Aid. Smith mildly intimated that the diitrict might be
able to succeed 111 selling the debentures to better advantage thin
the city, if they took them on thc
basil suggested. Thc mtyor wai
agreeable to this, provided the district would give 1 cleir receipt lor
the amount represented by the de
bentures it the price turned.
Aid. May was not prepared to
state the district would accept this
proposition. He could not see
that the placing of the debentures
in the hands ol the bank would
prove detrimental to the city, but
it might assist the district in financing their undertakings.
The mayor held otherwise and
could not see how thc icheme
would at all benefit the districi,unless Ihe bank would advince money
on the debentures, which they had
not agreetl to do.
Aid. May strongly contended
that it was the duty ol the city
council to do what they could to
relieve thc situation. The district
had carried the city along in this
matter lor a year or more, much to
their inconvenience, and lhe city
should leel tinder obligation to
take some steps to discharge this
obligation.
Aid. Crickmay was ol opinion
that the matter could not be disposed of at that session and moved
that it be relerred back to the finance committee. Carried.
City Clerk Shepherd read a re
port of the waterworks committee,
recommending that the water service be laid to the house ol A. 11.
Scriven, Lonsdale ave, and J. C.
Keith, bth street, opposite Ottawa
Gardens. With reference to the
unsatisfactory condition ol the
valve at the corner ol iyth street
ami Ridgway ave, the committee
recommended the construction ol
1 cement reservoir, measuring lox
10x20 feet,the cost of which would
be about I500. hirst portion of
report adopted; latter portion referred back for engineer's report
aiul other details.
The special committee with reference to heating the city hall recommended the removal of the
present furnace, which is unsalis
Iai lory, and the installation o( a
coal furnace to heat the entire
building.   Carried.
Aid. Braim called attention to
the bad condition ol the crossings
ol the tramline on Lonidale ive at
3rd, 4th, and 5th streets. The 11.
C. Klectric is to be requested to
repair same.
The city clerk reported the reception of a cheque for $163.40
from the Wallace Shipyards Co.,
in payment ol expenses in connection with the submission of the
Wallace Shipyards bylaw to the
ratepayers. Authority was given
to draw cheques in payment ol the
accounts owing under this head.

Capilano Awakening
Severil developments have combined recently tocsuse 1 considerable increase in the demand foi
Capilano property* It is known
that large purchases ol acreage
were made some lime ago, and the
In lief has taken shape that the
Canadian Northern Railway is the
real purchaser. In fact, it is openly asserted in influential circles
that the western terminals ol th
ine will lie located opposite
Brockton Poinl. The provincial
government survey pari) ii re-surveying the old lines ind the puis
pects ire good lor the expenditure
ol considerable sums oi public
money in the construction of roads
this autumn. 1 he survey party ol

the canyon, the line lo be in operation next spnng. The district
municipality has a survey party 11
work, on lines lor a marine drive

Another significant feature is
found in the fact thai the available
offerings of property are almost al
together in small holdings, the
large owners nol being desnous ol
telling it the ptesent time. The
sigm point to gratifying progress
in the near future in Cipiiano district.

The articles on sale at the various stalls were ijuickly disposed of
and lhe ladles are to be congratulated upon the success which attended their untiring efforts.
School Opening
The public schools of the city
will open lor the autumn term on
Monday. The school board wiote
the superintendent ol education requesting that an additioi.al week ol
holidays be granted because of the
protracted heat and also because
the seats for the addition to the
ichool have been delayed in tran-
lit. This morning a reply was received by wire with the peremptory directions, "The school must
open on Monday.'' Because ol
the absence of seats for the new
grade antl because of the fact that
the supply ol school books requisitioned from the department
has not yet come to hand, the MB-
sions will be conducted under difficulties, but the only course open
under the circumstances, is to do
the lust that can be done.
New Business Firm
Jack Loutet has severed his connection with the firm of Inkster &
Winl, and has opened a real estate oflice of his own on Lonsdale
avenue above 2nd street. He has
a thorough knowledge of local real
estate which will doubtless prove
of advantage to his clients. WS.
Conipston is associated with him
and In conjunction with the real
estate a general commission business will be carried on. Mr
Conipston has been operating in
thii line in Vancouver fpj some
time, acting as manufacturers'
agent for jute, linen, etc. Various
additional lines will be added for
several o( which arrangements are

North Vancouver, Aug. It, 1908
LYNN-SBYMOUR MINERAL
BELT
The fact is ever becoming more
clearly brought to view that in
Lynn and Seymour valleys, the
city of North Vancouver has, at
her very doors, a district of fabulous richness and of boundless
possibilities ol development and of
wealth production. Thc agricultural value ol the lands will render
them of great moment in the commissariat of the city that is to be,
and the valuable forest areas are
destined to yield their timber to
the enrichment of the province.
But it is from the viewpoint of
the vast mineral resources of the
district that its chief importance
for many years to come is to be
seen. Considering the fact that
the mineral belt at the head of
Lynn creek and Seymour creek is
comparatively so near at hand and
not difficult ol access, it is surpris
ing that much more lias not been
heard concerning it. Those who
are aware of its possibilities have
not been slow, however, to avail
themselves of the opportunities it
offers.
At the present time it is asserted, on thoroughly reliable authority, that there are 30 diferaol properties on Lynn creek upon which
more or lessdevelo|inient has been
done, prominent amongst these
being the properties of the Swayne
Copper Mining Syndicate. The
provincial dcpartim nt of mines recently sent tlieir representative,
Mr. Carmichael, into' Lynn valley,
to maki a report upon its mineral
resources, and while no information was given out, it was under
Stood that In was most favorably
impressed with Ihe showing made
and that his report would be of an
encouraging chatai ter
The country at the head ol Se>
niour creek abounds 111 mineral and
there is a consult rabW pojmlation
in that distnci at present eefagad
in mining opi ratioai, I hen an
many properties upon whii h extensive work has la-en done with
most gratil)ms" i< ill On one
property,comprising 1 event laims,
some 2000 leit ol 1 mm ling has
been done around the top ol tin
mountain. Every t iBBl 1 is in ore,
demonstrating the Iai I (hat tin te
is practically a mountain of ore.
The conditions are limilarl) 111
couraging with laapect to many
other claims. There ajipeurs to he
every reason to conclude that 1
mining community ol large proportions is destined lo be located
at the bead ol the-. 1 tceks.
The district in .;ueition is all
naturally tributary to North Vancouver. At the present tune, because ol the absence of satisfactory
trails along the creeks, supplies
are taken in with put diflculty
and expense, via Howe sound It
is to the interests ol Norlh Van*
couver, as well as of the jiortion of
the district involved, that this un
satisfactory condition ol alfairs be
remedied as soon as possible. The
grades  up   Lynn   antl   Seymour
a moderate expenditure would give
easy access from Burrard Inlet,
making the entire section tributary
to Ihis city, lt is asserted that a
trail suitable for pack trains could
be built for $100 per mile, or a
good wagon road for about $500
per mile.
It is understood that the provincial government has intimated that
it is not prepared to proceed with
construction, as petitioned recently by the city and the district
councils and the board of trade.
The advantages to be derived.bow-
ever, are so desirable and so evidently sufficient to justify the expenditure that if necessary the government should be importuned to
give this matter favorable consideration. The suggestion that an
effort be made to have the party ol
the Dominion geological survey,
now operating at Van Anda, visit
the district in question to make an
exhaustive report upon its resources, is a good one and would
doubtless accomplish a very great
deal towards providing the most
reliable information as to its mineral wealth.
A TTRA CTIVBADl 'li K TI SING
As Rev. Charles Stelzle says.the
human mind is stirred by a change.
It becomes tired of a monotone
and soon becomes drowsy under
its influence. No one method ol
advertising will long continue to
attract attention, no matter how
good it may bc. Even the flashing
of the electric sign soon loses its
effect on the man who becomes familiar with it. Neither should the
advertiser confine himsell to a particular style, excepting as shall be
hereafter designated. In my case
there should be a regular freshness
Of .'i'l**  il
The successful advertisement
speaks in different accents. It
shouts its headlines to attract attention. As the reader conies
nearer, it reduces its tone, and
when he comes close it whispers
its secrets in a voice which appeals
to his heart as well as to his mind
The advertisement which appeals to the largest number ol
senses is the most successful. One
must constantly remember that
people ol every shade ol tempera
ment and disposition arc being ap
pealed to. Therefore, every at
tractile element which can be employed should be enlisted. The
general style of the production.the
character of the type, the color ol
the ink, the quality of the paper,
may produce a combination which
is truly artistic, or il may result in
a job which will drive a man still
further away. Some people may
not be able to tell why they dislike

The Special Audit
To thi: Editor ok Tiik Exi'kess:
Sir,—You are to be compliment
ed on the full report, in your issue
ol the 14th inst., of the findings ol
the special audit committee, and
the reply thereto by the regular
auditors; though in justice to all
concerned the annexed balance
sheets referred to in lhat report
should also have been published,
else how can an opinion bc expressed as 10 the lorm in which it
would be desirable to have the accounts presented to the ratepayers
at the close of the financial year.
So far as an onlooker could
judge, the demand Ior a special
audit did not arise out ol any suspicion as to the honesty and ability
nl the staff at the city hall; but, at
the melting when the question ol
a special audit was mooted, such a
denseness was manifested in regard tu the finances of the city,
bonds and rumors of bonds, debts
and Illinois of debts, and to ctown
all, Councillor McNaught appeared t > understand even better than
the mayor the financial situation,
and drew a far from rosy picture of
the city's total indebtedness in relation to its income.
Tin*' was how 1 understood the
demand lui the special audit arose,
the ''instigators," to use your ua*
happy eipirssionjeeling that after
this exhibition, it was time that a
lull and complete account ol the
financial position of the city be
placed belore the ratepayers.
Yours sincerely,
William Knowi.ks

clear that -consumption is one ol

nature ol il would liad one to think
that it is not; no doubt similar conditions mil bring about similar results
Tin next is that the cow is primarily the mam source of the bacillus
and that othei loorcsa are like the
Scotchman1! falling short of per-
Eection, "naething to speak o'."
Yet it may be taken for grantod
that coniumptioo, ondai existing

board of health ol UuiachltlMtl
has placed the sanitan World under a debt by their magnificent
work on kindred subjects and it is
not surprising to find in lhat state
an appreciation of the conditions

milk is i-lassed by the number of
iicro-orgatiisms it contains. If in
a cubic centimetre, i quantity less
than ■ half inch cube, there are
found less than to.ooo organisms
it is classed first ; If under 50,000
as second and undi1 (00,000 as

the whole conditiooi, compelling
