Constables Considerable indignation was created thin morning shortly before noon by the action of n speci 11 O. P. R. constable. It appears that G. Lilley, a machinist, and one of the strikers, had occasion lo go to the C. P. It depot platform to see a friend, an engineer on one of tlie C.PR. bunts, off on the train. The constable in a manner brutal snd insolent, arrested the machinist for trespassing on the company's property and locked him up in the C.P R. gaol. After looking into the matter the C P.R. official ordered his-release and put an end to the disturbance. ..This is not tbe first time that this constable has caused trouble, and if any further occurrences tike place the men will not stand for it. Stories of trainmen and engineers being molested by these constables are frequent and trouble seems likely. Tbeir right to play, fast and loose witb our citizens bas been questioned, and public indignation is very strong. No clinkers in Courier's clean coal. Kodaks and films at Bews' Drug Store.

Aug. 28.-—The Canadian Pacific Railway strike affecting the mechanical trades is about In be settled. Tbe company has decided it has had sufficient of the present conditions existing on their system snd has opened negotiations.

P. R. president, Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, and General Manager McNichol. Nvgotia- tious proceeded so far that the president then sent foi G.

With next week, by iho start in big shipments of wheat, the company is face to fare with a serious , situation, especially as much kl their rolling stock in the west is running down and badly in need of repair.

Chester, head of the Con duclors' order, and other leaders of the Trainmen's brotherhoods, and they went down Satuiday night. SCHOOL OPENING Large Increase of Pupils—New Teachers Appointed.

It was only natural that, the gov* eminent, after considering the matter in all its lights should come to ibe conclusion that communication by trallie bridge over the river was necessary and we can only sny that ihu decision of the government is endorsed by every resilient in the district. The government can readily tell where public works nre necessary, and thnt there is necessity for h bridge here cannot be denied. They are long sightt1 enough to see that the district will develop, and that development will mean increased revenue to the treasury. I. O. F.

CITY WATER SUPRLY The ri-ci-nt long spell of dry weather which Kevelstoke has experienced ims been instrumental in opening the eyes of the Revelstoke people to the serious question of a continuous and ample water supply under all conditions that may arise and under the most trying circumstances. It is our duty here to vehemently deny any rumor or idle tale that our water supply is in bad shape, and to that we give the He direct. Throughout the long spell ot drought il stands to r-asoii that without the source "f supply being replenished the water must of ni.-ces.-ity decrease. Hut in our case in Revelstoke thi.- did not happen, and the momentary -care and alarm that thi- Bupply was failing was caused entirely by the |>eopi'- themselves and by their thoughtless and careless waste of w iter at a time when the supply should hnve lieen given a chance to increase and not Ik- drained off ns quick as tbe tank tilled up. Even with the present system there need never he any danger of tbe supply failing, but the public must in -uch weather ar has lieen recently experienced here, use a little common sense and forethought,remembering that if tin".- all u-is their garden hose at the Batne time the •supply cannot keep up with it. We say this chiefly on account of tire protection reasons, it lieing nil important that onr city pressure be maintained for that purpose. Since the inauguration of the city water system, there has been practically no addition or improvement in just proportion to the growth of the town, and the late trouble regarding water for lawns, etc., and the need of warning the publio against wasting the water has only now really cast a new phase of the situation before the people, and tin- necessity of securing other sources to increase the supply.

Revolttokc can oil', r Ihe snliiude and grand' urnt nature in comparison far exceeding the old and hackneyed tourist resorts all along the line ot the C P.R. Revelstoko has succeeded by perseverance and energy in acquiring what is perhaps the lluest and most magnificent natural park in the west. Several years have passed since Mt. Victoria was first exploited, and it is only within recent date that its beauties, its wonderful possibilities as a tourist and p'easure resort and its superb scenery have attracted tbe attention of the citizens. Five years ago the lirst trip up tlie mountain was made. C R. Macdonald, J. Devine, J. Dallas and R. Gordon being the pioneer explorers on these several excursions tn the summit and siuce that lime the alluiements of the glorious scenery at the summit and the v/ondeiful expanse of magnificent rolling park lands that stie'ch for miles- aud miles till the mount..ins rear their walls in the form of a vast natural barrier, have created enthusiasm that has spread until the construction of a trail from the city up the hiil side was accomplished. The construction of a trail although iuch work has been discussed for several years, was brought about during the present civic ministry, who with tbe Tourist Association have worked hard to secure this unrivalled park for the city. Lindmark Trail will be known as the tourist attraction of tbe west, and the f'.llowing description may interest others of our citizens besides tourijis who have not yet essayed the ascent. And first let it be said tbat the trail is cut, and cut well into tbe slopes of the mountain where the easiest grades were obtainable and in no case is the trail so steep that undue fatigue Io horse, if the traveller wishes to ride up, or to pedestrians, is experienced. Zig-zag up tbe face of Mt. Victoria, the trail offers no dangers, it lieing wide and flat. Who, after the enthusiasm of the first ascent through binsh and shrub, cannof find pleasure in the green woojjj, the gently breeze playing soft and low, in lying amid the sylvan scene, wli-re shadows dark and sunlight sheen alternate enme and go between the long droopii g houghs of the trees, or where the dense groove receives no sunlight from above. Into the Liy lie and breathing air, Into the solemn wood Solemn and silent everywhere Nature with folded hands seemed there. In front and Mow unfolds itself the marvellous panorama that almost takeB the breath away with wonder- Mapped out in even anil, symmetrical lines the city lies spread resting in tbe sunahine, nestling in tbe valley,secure and mill. KisiiiK up sheer ieyond, tower the glistening crags and glaciers of Begbie and MeArthur, their serried and rugged summits, shagvy and heavy with perpetual snow, flashing and scintillating like gigantic gems. In contrast to tbe sombre shadows of tbe valley, winds the Columbia river in a silver snake-like streak, threading its way into tbe dim hill round the Arrow Lakes. No finer view of RevelBtoke can be obtained than from thia elevation, and from bere can be seen ibe wonderful possibilities of the city's growth along the rich area ot flat lands that stretch away on either side of the Colon.hia. In tbis valley we have tbe makings of a great city, a city that will lead tbe interior, and surrounded by a setting Buch as cannot be elsewhere compared with. Pausing for a few moments to drink in the scene, the traveller continues the ascent, every turn of the trail bringing fresh wonders of nature in varied forms. Upward and upward through glades and leafy bowers, round rocky crags and ever changing lights and sbodows, tbe traveller if he hss a soul for nature cannot but feel enthusiastic at the scene. Should thirst overtake him, at many points on the trail silver brooks from their (ull lavers pour down in white cascades, ice cold and sparkling, babbling low smid the tangled woods down through moss grown stores, to furnish the city witb beautiful sup plies of water cool and limpid, water tbat for its purity cannot be equalled. I Still again, tbe view, even more ex panslve as the elevation is reached, lint Id- Is i s i he t a viler stands nn the em luei.ee a I uve Ibe.t'liy »• d cil led Mac loiniid's H'uli' Kmm lids point the hi-t sight ..I Ibe eily valley is tyillgllt and now tluire ilses up a mist from the river enveloping th-* valley in wreaths m d «Inapt- oi grey lhat fade away into purple hills beyond Soon Dull us Pass is reached and a Hue Hat where flowers of every viirieiy grow and where the traveller can rest a little bet re making the final "bit" fur tho summit. Shade trees make walking or riding delightfully cool and there is a quiet spirit in these woods and overhead unrolls on high the sky's splendid dome where through a sapphire sea the sun sails like a golden galleon. A tew moro turns and sharp ascents and the traveller emorgos from tho woods, upon the plateau near Grass Lake, tho summit of Ml. Victoria tho veritable root of tho Selkirks Before and on ull Bides unfolds a scene never to be forgotten, a scene superb in its magnificence. To the north-east stretches out the valloy of tbo lllecillewaet river with the silver streak glistening in ils deep canyon, rushing in its mad course to the Columbia, and glistening in the sunlight, the rugged sister peaks of Twin Butte rear tlieir heavy summits to the clouds. To the north lie the bead-waters of 8-mile creek, where the scene is split up into glaciers, deep ravines, high preoipieces and lofty crags and peaks To the west the heavy timbered depths of Jordon and Eagle Puss look dim and mysterious, Rank upon rank of serried warriors, their virgin snowcapped brows unsullied by human foot stretch away in tne dim distance while the forest-clad slopes and foot hills undergo kaleidosc. pic changes in light and shadow. Here can be seen the glacier of tlie Silver Tip Falls and away to the northwest rolls the mighty Columbia visible for 40 miles winding its way through forest and canyon. Some idea of the nature cf thia vast plateau on the mountain summit, can be gained when it is realized that there sre nver 3000 acres of open park land, undulating and sweeping, cut in some pbces by gentle grassy si ipes and ravines,carpeted witb soft emerald green, dotted witb clumps of bushes and here and there stately pi.es and firs rearing their noble heads, casting deep shadows over the heather-clad sweeps. On leaving Grass Lake the traveller passes through nature at her beBt; be walks on a veritable carpet of flowers of every kind and description, their color and shade blending harmoniously together without contrast. This conglomeration ot color would puzzle even the most skilled artist, and surrounded by all the glorious green of tbe grass witb tbe more sombre hue of the clumps of trees behind make a picture which pen, pencil or brush finds a difficult task to portray. Glorious flowerets in llie sunlight shining, Blossoms flaunting Im tho eye of day. Such a natural playground, situated among unrivalled icenery, lies nt the very door of Revelstoke and cannot but arouse enthusiasm in the least, romantic of in. Water there iB in abundance all over tbe pirk. Protection Lake, discovered by O. R. Mac- donald and J. J. Devine in August, 1902, is a picturesque mountain tarn and fed by crystal clear springs On going north the panorama spreads out still more, aud the splendid view is even more entraucing as fresh gnl lies, glaciers and snow-capped peaks come into view. This rich heritage to RevelBtoke is as yet not really known or understood, for to understand nature one must study nature and allow her to show herself. This paradise in tbe clouds, where the air is fresh and cool, and the very height above human habitation lends awe inspiring thoughts, will booh attract thousands. On and on witb new scenes and wonders ever rising up before one, this wonderful region calls the explorer down the steep slopes across to Miller's Park and Miller's Lake, where can be found the rarest forms of color and prismatic effects. Suoh is this natural park wherein there is nothing but beauty and richness, tbe valuab e attraction to Revelstoke, the health- giving play ground for young and old. Our citizens have realized to some extent the wonders snd scenic mar. vels of Victoria Park and many have walked and ridden up tbe Lindmark Trail, and drank the beauties of nature to tbe full, but none can ever tire of visiting such scenes or of camping in the region. What could be better than after the exploration of tbo day to spend tho night amid the scented flowers and grass, where mosquitoes are unknown, and sleep tbe sleep of restful tiredness under tbe stars 7000 feet above tbe sea, and over five miles away from the hot and dusty city, to awake next morning when the heaven's wide arch was glorious with tbo sun's returning march. The clouds beneath bathed in light as tbey cling midway round tbe wooded slopes and in their fading glory shine like boats in battle overthrown, as many a pina- ole witb shifting glance through the grey mii-i thrusts up Its rosy peak. The ioil ol ui ml Is lifted and below glows the rich vil'ey and rivers. Such a sunrise, ns Co ui wi'.g orb slowly rises, gilding Hi" c.ltl snow peaks and shedding a rich lire on crng and sum mil, can be seen Oil Mt. Victoria. Again as t. e s'li sinks the traveller oan sit round his camp gre watching the red i|i,ir]<H nnd ribbons of llsii'e slinotin; upward, Night, haa come and the lustre shed by the rising iiiiiiiii as she unveils her brow in the red sky, rests on tho faints blue hills and in her sad mellowing light the valley sloops. The silver light is spreading. Far above encompassed with their thin cold atmosphere the mountains uplift their snowy heads glowing with ooldor beauty, Tho spirit of these solitudes, tho soul that dwells within these steep and lofty places speaks a mysterious language of its Qivti. "lt thou art worn and hard beset With sorrows that thou would'st forgot, If thou would'st read a lesson that will kcop Thy heart from fainting and thy soul from Bleep, Co to these woods and everlasting hills."
