AN EMPIRE IN ITSELF.
Montreal, Aug. 7.—In an interview here, B. E. Walker, general
manager ol the Canadian Bank ol
Commerce, declared that the press of
Canada should realize how much
greater are the wants ol British Colitm.
bia than the provinces ol the plain.
The Pacific province, he said, is an
empire in itself, and to develop its
resources a great deal of money has
to be spent. The legislature, he continued, should not he parsimonious
when money is required for British
Columbia which will become the
revenue-producing province par excellence of the Dominion.

greatest brutality, for the possession
of life buoys und life belts. Many
were killed nnd wounded, When the
captain saw the vessel wus lost and
the emigrants hud captured the boats
he committed suicide by shooting himsell with a revolver, the other ollloors
then lust their heads nnd thero wits
nobody to direct the work of rescue.
Eye witnesses givo awful pictures of
the brutal panic on board. Women
nud children wore slushed and cut
with knives by lho men, when the,
tried to get into tbe bouts. One report, states that a group of emigrants
approached one of the lnmls that was
foil and ubout to lie launched, killing
several of the occupants with knives.
Justus they themselves were nbout to

CANADIAN DEFENCE.
The statement on army relorm
England, as made in tho House ol
Commons by Mr. Richard lj.iluldune,
secretary tor war, will greatly interest
any Canadians who may be thinking
about militia matteis. Our war inin
ister at Ottawa has allowed the session
to close without, affording any explanation, which contrasts strongly
with the debate in the British Commons Great Britain has reduced the
permanent corps by 20.0U0, while our
standing force has been steadily in
creasing. Sir Frederick Borden is
still piling up the expenditure on our
standing army, an appendage which is
the least needed and must expensive
of any of uur wlinle system, nnd yet
he declares that nu man should bo
given the right ol the franchise in
Canada until he bus put in at least
three annual trainings in the Canadian
Militia, that the permanent force is
not a success and that Switzerland enn
give us a few wrinkles in a cheap and
efficient lorm ol patriotic service. It
the minister had S-ullieit-nt strength (
purpose he could increase our passilil
defence force by 10,1100 for every 1,000
man available, and that without costing the cunntry one cent more nnd
still he able to relieve the overburdened citizen soldier. Great
Britain cannot compare with Canada
in the number oi wealthy men and
men ot leisure, yet Britain maintains
permanent corps manufacturing "red
ta|*" to keep them busy, while the
militiaman and volunteer is made
responsible for all stores, has to give
his own regimental instruction and is
severely censured il he does not know
and do everything ns well, or even
better iban the professional soldier.
In Great Britain the regular army
provides ao adjutant loi eaoh regiment
and a drill sergeant lor each squadron,
Canada needs no standing army, in
imitation ol the Mother country whu
has her wide spread possession! to look
alter. But what we do want Is a
small, efficient crpi ol competent
instructors, s- in Switzerland, to do
duty aiming our militia regiments, in
which capacity, one of them wi uld do
as much gt«sl III the ivhol inpany
uf permanent corps do in their expensive barracks, It Is high time tinmen and whu,en ol Canada l-> uan to
think nl their fatherland. Wo want
defence,not defiance. Military authorities, sudh a- Lord Dundonald,
think wc have no delences, ,,r whal
th re is, is entirely inadequate, which
practically amounts lo tin- same
thing. However small u standing
irmy is, the expense ie considerable
Our militia lo.ces In Ihe Boer war

proves the case in question, II the
money expended on the Increase ol llie

cabin the Government is building for
Charlie Dcutschnian, wo were welcomed by that, big-hearted good-follow
in true western style, and sat duwn to
it supper ol Rocky Mountain strawberries, tried Armour dough babies
und apples. Next morning each one
was given a candle and "follow the
lender" was the order.
Cnve No. 1 is a plunge down into a
water carved pussuge 8 to 15 feet wide
nnd Irom 20 to 150 feet high. Down,
down yuu gu, the rocks on eil her side
all carved into fantastic shapes re-em-
bliug all the animal kingdom in natural history. Evory hundred toot, ur
sn ii ladder takes you down to greater
depths until the roar is heard ol the
cavern river, rumbling like distant
thunder through tho echoing hulls.
A.tum, and the Cougar, with loam
crestel nnine rushes past nud into a
black cavern beyond. In this c ve
one cun get sonic idea of the immensity of time. Countless years must
hnve been taken to chisel out Irom the
solid lime nnd gunrUite formation
these wondrous waterways. Leaving
Cougar Creek with its sub rosa exit,
we climbed up into "Tho Gallery,"
This passage is a succession ot pot
iniles, like grout witches cauldrons,
nne below tho utlicr, yuu ascend until
at the end ui the gallery yuu can look
down into a part of the lirst entrance
85 leet bolow.
Cave No. 2 is further down the old
waterway.    This ancient channel is
wider but not us high as No. 1.   Side
galleries  running  to right und lelt
tempi tlie explorer to stray, hut Ihe
black emptyuess and silence that follows where llie main party has gono
on, gives a weird love-of-socioty lei ling
that keeps the crowd together,   The
walls are grooved and polished; nl
different points, stalactites of  limo
carbonate  hang while nnd spectral
Irom tin-ceiling, the beautiful crystals
showing to advantage  wit -    thcii

NOTCH HILl NOTES.
From our own correspondent,
A peculiar incident occurred last
Thursday which might have bad 11
tragic ending. Chas. Castle, who was
silting in his store waiting inr the
arrival ol the passenger train west,
was startled by the report of a rifle
and the crash ol gluss behind him.
Hastily opening the door he peered
out into the darkness but there was no
one to be Been. On examining the
wall opposite the window n bullet was
fuiind, embedded in tlie wood, from n
22 calibre rifle, Mr. Castle offers nn
explanation ol the incident.
The Misses Simpson have a snug
little camp at tlie landing at Mr.
Hens'ridge's ranch, and these ladies
Imve set the example to ninny others.
Three girls are encamped at the
mouth of A1I111118 river, while A. Barnes
and family of Kamloops have pitched
tents not far ilislnnt.
W. Henstridge has taken a tour on
horseback to Knilcrby and will remain
away Ior a week or two.
The Government Hatchery people
have formed tln-ir camp at Scotch
Creek and are preparing the traps in
readiness Ior the salmon run.
The residents at Blind Bay paid 11
surprise visit to Mr. aud Mrs. Treyuor
at Express Point. A flotilla ol boats
ferried the party across, who provided
all the good things of life, and a most
enjoyable alternoon was spent. Many
indulged in bathing as the day was
tropically hot.
