Mr. J. W. Stewart, president uf the

after a fuur muiilhs' trip thruughuut
I,ui "p.- and was in conference fur thc
greater purtiuu uf tho aftcrnuun with
Mr. P. Welch, vice-president of the
cunipuny and Mr. J. P. Cullughau, chief
eugineer n't the offices uf thc cuinpany',
iu Vuncouver.
Interviewed by a representative uf
the Kxpress, Mr. Stewart stated that
his trip tu Europe hud been uf the nu | the ruute uf
ng ami grading the right-of-way. Mr.
Htcwnri was uut iu position to state
at procisely what poiut or points cpn-
ui inel i.iii wuuld commence, but ho stated positively that clearing and grading gangs would be set at work within
a week or two ami that work wuuld be
carried on continuously frum that time.
He propuBcd to outer into coiisultutiun
with tho directors at uuce, when these
details with reference tu the policy of
Iho cuinpany wuuld be finally decided,
Asked us tu whether one of the
points at whicii cunstructiuu would
begin us referred 'tu abuve, wuuld be
lueated un the Nurlli Bhore uf Hie Inlet, Mr. Stewurt uud Mr. Welch both
pointed out the fact that while the

fur tbu commencement uf construction
ut a puiut uu the Norlh Sburu witbiu
ten miles uf Vancuuver, Iba difficulty
whicii bad developed with reference lu
unipuny thruugh West

ever, with the result uf lue financial
an' utigemciits which the eumpatty had
succeeded in making, bulb with refer
ence lu the ♦5,000,001) already Hunt,-.,
aud the prospects as tu future require
monts.
It wuuld be practically itupussibli1
fur him tu give uny detailed infurma
lion with reference tu the iuteuliuus
uf his company ut present because ut
lhe fact lhat he had uut yet had op
p"iiniuii uf conferring with his fellow
direclurs since his return. With refer-
ouce lu the general pulley uf Ihe com
pany huwever, it was their intention
tu rush cunstructiuu ami fur this pur
pose a vory large force of men would
be employed ulung the right-of-way,
Difficulties which had developed with
reference tu Ihe approval by the department uf ruilwuys uf certain see
tiuus uf 'ihc ruute map submitted by
the cuinpany had caused delays with
reference tu the actual commencement
of cuustruclion, which hud nut been
anticipated, but it wus his intention
li make u 'inn immediately upun clear
Vaucuuver would prevent the cuinpany
frum commencing ut sueh u puiut until
ufter this purtiun uf Ihc ruute is sol
Hod, fur tho reasuii lhat the point re

uf lhe matter hud been set by the
Minister of Ruilwuys fur the liu'lli inst.
uml no wurk could be done uu the
Nurlli Shure until, ufter Ihut date al
earliest. It wus nul anticipated, huwever, that there wuuld be uuy proloug-
ed delay in complying with the terms
of the agreement, ume Hie route map
thruugh Wesl Vuncouver wus approved.
Among olher matters Mr. Stewart
hopes tu be able tu lake up the mut

One bright morning jn Muy, 1881, I

understood while bere tbat he was a
'Iniiuii connection of Lord Kingsdalc,
tbe l'remier Huron of Ireland, but so
remote were his chances of attaining
to the peerage that it never entered
the bead of auy oue to spcik of bis
high possibilities. Hut fate often ile
cides tbing in a way tbat ia foreign
to our anticipations and expectations.
One after auotber tbe immediate heirs

cleared tbe path for Major Def'ourccy.
Then one day tbe old earl died and our

waa considerable, rale of postage ^hc
ing very high, as much as a shi-Uing
being cburged on a letter lo Kuglund
and tbe Slates, and ncwsjiapcrs paid
four cents each. No one ever knew
what was luken in al Ihc Colonial posl
office under D'Kwes. One duy D'Kwcs
applied for leave of absence. He was
overworked and was ill, and wanted
a trip to California. He gut his leave
aud weut away. Then Mr. Hold. Ker,
at tbat time Colonial Auditor and oue
of Ihc most accomplished accountants
in Oreat Britain, gol possession uf Ihc

the postmaster was a serious defuultcr.
for line, much uo one ever knew, but
as be had taken everything that cuiuc

several thousand dollars. His books—
well, he kept no books. The condition
of things at tbe postoUicc recalled to
old William -Leigh, aflcrward fowu

Oapt, "Hilly" Mitchell, whu fnr sonic
yours was in cuinmand of the Hudson's
Hay Company's pioneer stcotnur Heaver, uml trailed with the Imliaus ou
the northwest coast of the colony. The

discovery of gold in California had
opened a shorter ami easier passage
to Kugland by wuy uf Panama. Uov-
oritur Doiigltis on one oecoeiou was
mniii vexed with Mitchell because of
his ilihituriiicss in handing in "thp
Heaver's iiccuunlit. After several uu
successful nppliciitiiins, the fluvernor
wont down 10 Hie lunil in pursuit.
"Cupl. Mitchell," he began, "yuu
musl hund in your accounts by loinnr

"My accounts, replied Hilly. "I
huve none."
"Htirely, Cupt. Mitchell,'' returned
Ihu (lovemur, "you kepi accounts uf

"Yes, sir I did,"
"Where an; thoyf"
"To loll lhe truth, llovejnor, I kept

Major DeOourcey, or rather Hai,,,,

The facts aro that; sume weeks ago
when the questinp nil pxemptlons from
liiMiliiiu lirsl iirnse In Uie council, Al
deritiiin Porciiian asked my opiuion regarding It, and I gave it to hint, setting out at lbe I'uii ibereiif a few facts
which it was necessary for bim to got
in order tu enahlu mo to givo a definite
opiuion "ii tliu aubject. My. opinion
was nu lu,lu,l iu iim document read by
Ablerniuu Foreman which |ia» already
appeared in your roport, and which I
litivewo hesitation In standing back of
as correct. Tho facta suggested in my
opinion given Alderman Foreman or at
lust the most Important of thorn have
uover been givon to Ibo council so far
a* I can gather from your roport. The
musl important thing to know ia "the
number of children other tbau Indians
fdr whom uo pay is received." Without tbis no definite opinion can be given
by auy solicitor. It would alsu be
well to kuow whether III cm' children
belong to llic cily of Norlh Vancou
ver or havo heen brought bore from
outsicc.
Tbi opiniun of lbc city solicitor ivas
given on a mis statement of facts. The
letter from the city clerk to the cily
solicitor, written at the mayors' dictation—as it states—says, "There arc
fifteen white children, all orphans."
Sister Mury Atny'B letter says, "Wc
are puid I'or the white children as the
parents ure able lu pay." From this
it woold appear that some, at least,
of the llfleen "orphnti" children men
lioiicd liy the mayor, havo parents.
This is slurliing, inasmuch as it con
stitutcs un entirely uew class of "or
pbatis;" as ull urpliuns hitherto known
huve bad uo parents.
Bister Mary Amy further says,
"Home while orphan children arc uever
paid for." Now just how many arc
included in tbia word "some" is tbe
all-important question) aud this the
Council did not lake tbo trouble to
havo answered. Here it may be asked
why a copy of Slater Mary Amy's let-

ter WM R. t Wtf t« th* pity solicitor
instead of til* one that was sent. Qf
why, at least, was lbe city solicitor
liflt g|yon a truthful statement pf the
facts as contained iu her I, Her' If
my recoil*. Hop serves me  correctly
ypur fopprt slate, that thc council wero
tb»t night considering the weighty sub
Joct of tlie Turkish Bath By-lap, and
tills may have been the cum"' pf diverting their minds from so trifling a
subject as the taxation of a quarter
ofl in iiiiun dollars worth of property.
The »liiliile miller which this exetilp-
Ho* is ciaii»pi| mentions "orphan mA
ih-ulilnli- children." Aldeniiuu Fore
mun is quite correct in saying that tbp)
.ine" not include iiiiiiiius, wlm are wards
nl  tb* government, ppt destitute.  Nui
ther does ii include the newly discov
ered cluss. of orphans whose parents
ure able to pay for Ihem. These two
classes being eliminated, it leaves ouly
the "some" out of a tutal of fifteen
white children. We bave no luforma
tion as to tbe exact uumber Included
in tbis word "some"; but for the sake
of argument may safely presume iu
Iho absence uf better evidence tbat it
would not bo over three or four, or it
would have boun stated aa a third ur
more uf the afuresald fifteen, ii tbis
bo so, theu all tbat any educational
institution, such aa the Mission schuul
(or for lbat matter any kind of an in
slit ul inn i would bavo to do, would be
to take iu throe or four orphaus free
of cburgc and in this way have Ihc taxes that should be paid by tbe institution transferred to the shoulders oi the
rest of tiio community. Tbis would upply lo even tbe Chesterfield school not
withstanding the "incongruity" of the
comparison in the opiuiou uf the mayor.
It is not a qucstiou as to whether the
council may feci inclined tu grant ex
emptiuu tu auy pstrticular party, but
whelher tbey have a legal rlgbt to do
su. It is an easy thing to be generous
with money which one docs not have to
earn; liul a public trustee should be
at least as careful with public money
us he would with bis own.
Thc suggestion that Alderman Fore
mun lius tryiug lo "down tbe or
pliaus" as the mayor so gracefully expresses il, it is not necessary to reply
to, us Al,l.■iinini Foreman is well ami
favorably known iu Ibis city. There
docs seem, however, for some unex
plained reason, to have been au uuusuul
minium of heat iu the couucil's discus
siuu of this subject; so much su that
Ilis Worship the Mayor, followiug llic
example of the ancient prophets deem
ed it i ,i, ii lulni't on him to scold- - I
menu "rebuke" Aldermen Foreuiuu
for "downing the orphaus." Of eoun
Ibis sounds very well wben a civic elec
liuu is louming up a few muiiths aheadi
but thc ijucstiuu is a purely legal "c
and shuuld he so considered.

council iu regard to the exempting of
HI. i'aul's school from taxation, the
muyor uddrcssing me personally, ex
pressed a hope that I would work for
lbc city's interests to Ihc same ex
lent as I hud worked for tin "down
iug of the orphan children."
i feel Ihul it is up lo mc uh .
chosen representative of the rutepuy
ein of North Vancouver to assure thc
electorate that in bringing fornunl
the facts that I certainly did bring
forward uu Monday night, I hud aliso
lui'l.i uo mii'i,ium whatever of at
lucking orphan children as a class. The
,,i, ii,,ii uuder discussion was purely
uml simply whether a particular in
slitutiou came or did uot come under
u certain section of thc Municipal
Clauses Act. if I had beeu satisfied
Ibat tbe former was the case I shuuld
bavo beeu the firsl one tu move Ibe
grunting of the exemption applied for.
As I was by no means satisfied ou tbis
poiul, I aaid so, aud was prepared lo
say so again and again until proper ivl-
deuce wa. prodoccd to the contrary.
''he advice of Ibe city solicitor lolhe

i.llenlion lo thc fact th.t certain ini
pn iinni Hiiiiciiiciits iu his letter tlif
fcred very greatly from the state
nictils made by Bister Mary Amy ber
self iu ber lotter tu the council. Bister Mary Amy stales "we have under
our care at preeent 60 Indian children

Everywhere on his in lliruugli lhe
Maritime 1'rovinccs, (Quebec and On-
tariu, Mr. Wilby bus beon acclaimed us
the herald of a new em nt motor lnnd
and thu fororunner uf n large army uf
tourists. That ho has uot encountered
serious diillcultics during his journey
westward is proved by the remarkably
guud time he is milking, he having only
taken eleven days tu make the trip
frum Iiniuii.-. to Toronto. If it is possible for him to continue his journey
ut Ihis rule uf speed ho will reach the
l'acillc coast in lillle more Ihun five
weeks.

Hnlargi'inunls may bo dune eii hei by
daylight or- uniiieiui ligbt. 'llic latter
perhaps is tlie easier inelliuil on ac
count of tlio necessity for a dark room
iu daylight work.
Should daylight not, however, be
method chosen there is uo ucuil ley the
purchase of an enlarging iaiitern. The
ordinary camera may be uscdf not a

the camera must fit perfectly info the
opening. In front of the camera a
screen slipuld be erected parallel with
it. it should be movublo so as to al
low various sized pictures to be enlarged.
imagine for lbc' moment that the
camera is a magic lantern (1 wonder
why the old name of mugic lantern
■nel.-.. There is nothiug magic about
it).
Tlio image Is projected outo tbe
i"■leen. which should have a sheet of
white paper stretched on it, just as a
lantern slide is, only with the difference
that everylniug is reversed. Skies uiul
while ubjeets will show black while

Having determined Ihc size of pic

which and expose for tip; picture accordingly.
After exposing, take lhe paper olf Hie

All the above sounds very simple
and the .operation is as simple us il
