McLean saying that ho bad accompanied the provincial dairy inspector in u tour ol the dairies. He nad found that while most ol the milk dealers attempted to keep within the law one or two made little attempts at cleanliness and were able to urge as un excuse that there was no local bylaw. He suggested that the- council should pass a bylaw to insure sanitary surroundings to dairies and clean milk and he proposed that a system of grading the various premises be introduced. This would Involve, he said, a monthly or semimonthly inspection by the health officer. The letter will be considered at the tt^xt regular meeting of the council. Revelstoke Branch of Patriotic Fund Created First Street Pavement Extended to Hospital FOUR YEARS FOR BURGLARY Robbed Gnes's at Hotel—Magistrate Determined to Purge City ot Parasites Joseph Williams aud John Atkins appeal ..al belore Police Magistrate Hamilton on Monday evening charged with burglary. They were found guilty Williams was sentenced to four years in the penitentiary and Atkins to ifix months hard labor. The magistrate d-eclared that with the aid of the police and of the hotel keepers he was determined to rid tbe town ol parasites of society and to make Revelstoke a city to which laboring men might bring their savings without Ic.-.i of being robbed. Williams nad taken a room at one of the city hotels in the name of Brett, which he shared with Atkins. During tbe night John Mulligan, another guest at the hotel was awakened by tri-Hn,: his trousers, which be had piacd under his pillow, being pulled away and he opened his eyes to sec two men standing by his bed.

Nominating Committee is Appointed ,to Select Exeoutive Inspiring Address Delivered by Judge Forin—Meeting Enthusiastic A Revelstoke branch ol the Canadian Patriotic fund was formally created at an enthusiastic public meeting held in thc MaBonic temple last night. R Gordon was in the chair and piloted the business so that there was no undue lapse of time and a feature of the meeting was an inspiring patriotic address by Judge Forin of Nelson which was received with the heartiest applause and musical honors. Judge Forin promised thnt on his return from the coaBt he would address a similar meeting ln connection with the fund. A nominating committee consisting of H. McKinnon, mayor, J. M. McKay, R. Gordon, A. Pradolini, W. A. Foote, Mrs T. Kilpatrick and Mrs. S. G. RobWins was selected to appoint an executive committee representative ot all sections of the community which will proceed with the collection of funds and all other nec- cessary business. Mr. Gordon announced that already some 25 residents of Revelstoke had promised to contribute one days pay a month during the duration of the war and that the fund in Revelstoke would begin with a revenue of over $60 a month. ; Mr. Gordon in opening the meeting read circulars defining the objects of the fund, as published in Saturday's Mail Herald. He then called upon B. R. Atkins and Father MacKenzie to address the meeting. Mr. Atkins said that there was no doubt as to the necessity of the work that the Fund had undertaken. Up to the present he believed that only two of the soldiers who had left Revelstoke for the front had left dependants in need of assistance. He had been Instructed to collect donations from members of the customs department in Revelstoke and its outposts and it was possible that it might be better to transfer the money to a branch of the Fund in Revelstoke. Father MacKenrie spoke of the importance of making the people realize the necessity of the work. He thought the name of the Fund deceived many as to its object. Some of the Italian residents of Revelstoke had expressed to him their desire to assist and he had advised them to wait until an organization should be created in the city. I Judge Forin spoke of the ready response in Nelson and Trail at the formation of the branches of the Fund there. In Trail *s00 a month was being subscribed for the relief of the Belgians and the monthly subscriptions to the Putriotic Fund would be 81900 a month. I Speaking of the war he said that the teacnings of Galilee had been cast awav by the- Germans. The British would never submit to the flag which bore the double headed vulture of Germany. Those who had not something worth dying for had not a great deal worth living for. The em-1 -aire would surprise the world with the exhibition of Its generosity and its resources. The Belgians had been a friend to the British empire which had promised to stand by them. The empire would never go back on them, lt would never break its word. If the Germans broke througb one line of defence there would be others behind it. He had himself worn the iinlform for 15 years and be hoped that the age limit would be raised so that Mr. Atkins and himself could go to the front before the British flng should go down. In Trail a Circular had been sent to every man in town. One mBn who worked with a shovel was contributing |3 a month to the Tatriotlc Fund and i'2 u month to the Belgian fund.Those who were enjoying three square meals a day could do something even If thev could not go to thc front. A steady contribution was needed. No one could say how many mim Canada would have at the front hefore the war was over. She would send half a million men if necessary. The spirit of sacrifice was abroad and the names of those who contri- No Witnesses for Crown in Tapping Prosecution Judge Intimates That He Will Dismiss Case if Crown F^ils to Produce Witnesses—Suit for jThousand Dollars for Loss of Thumb—Other Cases at County Court This Morning Total Cost of Sidewalks Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Dollars CARS PREPARED FOR SENTRIES Sleeping Accommodation at One End and Kitchen at Other—For Winter Use The case of Rex. vs Tapping, a claim for 81000 compensation for loss of a thumb and a claim for $5,31G with several minor cases were disposed of this morning by Judge Forin in the county court.

Tapping is charged with doing grevious bodily injury to Jerry O'Leary, by biting off part of his ear, there was no appearance on behalf of the Crown and the case was adjourned until October 28, when Judge Forin will dismiss the case if the Crown does not intimate that it pmnoRes to continue the prosecuta n. G. S. McCarter, who appeared for the defence, said that the Crown. evidently had no intention of pro-1 ceeding and he asked that the case be dismissed.

Judge Forin rpp!,ed that the defence had delay d in electing for trial and the witnesses had now dispersed. Time had Deei. in Tavor of the,, defence. Mr. McCarter said that the defence' had not interfered with the witnesses. He wished the witnesses were present so that the court might see them.

When applications for naturalization were considered Judge Forin announced that Judge Thompson had given a written judgment declining to granL naturalization to subjects of hostile nowers during the war. This judgment had been appealed and until a decisiou was given he would grant no further naturalization to Cermans or Austrians. Naturalization was granted to the following: Giscomo Fabris, mnson, Italian of Revelstoke. Ove Olson, rancher, Norway of Sicamous. Kurla Kungas, laborar, Finland, of Craigellachie. Karl G.

Revelstoke Branch of Patriotic Fund Created First Street Pavement Extended to Hospital Nominating Committee is Appointed ;to Select Exeoutive Inspiring Address Delivered by Judge Forin—Meeting Enthusiastic A Revelstoke branch of the Canadian Patriotic lund was formally enthusiastic public meeting held in the Masonic temple last night. R Gordon was in the chair and piloted the business so that there was no undue lapse of time and a feature of the meeting ! was an inspiring patriotic address I hy Judge Forin of Nelson which was received with the heartiest applause and musical honors. Judge Forin promised that on his return Irom the coast he would address a similar meeting in connection with the fund. A nominating committee consisting of H. McKinnon, mayor, J. M. McKay, R. Gordon, A. Pradolini, W. A. Foote, Mrs T. Kilpatrick and Mrs. S. G. RoblVins wns selected to appoint an executive committee representative ot all sections of the community which will proceed with the collection of funds and all other nec- cessary business. Mr. Gordon announced that already some 25 residents of Revelstoke had promised to contribute one days pay a month during the duration of the war and Joseph Williams and John Atkins that the fund in Revelstoke would before Police Magistrate beBin wlth a revenue of over $60 a month.

Tney were found guilty Williams was sentenced to four years In the penitentiary and Atkins to stx months hard labor. The magistrate declared that with the aid of the police and of the hotel Mr. Gordon in opening the meeting read circulars defining the objects of the fund, aB published in Saturday's Mnil Herald. He then called upon B. R. Atkins and Father MacKenzie to address the meeting. Mr. Atkins said that there was no doubt as to the keepers he was determined to rid the necessity „, the work lhat the Fun town of parasites of society and to make Revelstoke a city to which laboring men might bring their sav-' ings without fter of being robbed. Williams nad taken a room at one of tbe city hotels in the name of Brett, which he shared with Atkins. During the night John Mulligan, another guest at the hotel was awakened by feeding his trousers, which he had placed under his pillow, being pulled away and he opened hiB eyes to sec two men standing by his bed. j The men quickly left the room and disappeared. The police were summoned and BU3- hud undertaken. Up to the present he believed that only two of the soldiers who had left Revelstoke for tho front had left dependants in need of assistance. He had been instructed to collect donations Ironi members of the customs department in Revelstoke and its outposts and it was possible that it might be better to transfer the money to a branch of the Fund in Revelstoke. Father MacKenzie spoke of the importance of making the people realize the necessity of the work. He thought the name of thc Fund deceived many as to its object. Some picion fell upon Williams and Atkins 0f the Italian residents of Revelstoke who in the meantime had thrown the had expressed to him their desire to trousers belonging to Mulligan, assist and he hud advised them to which contained a gold ring and wait until an organization should be money, out of the window. James Miller another guest at the hotel had also been robbed of 815. This money was found on Williams and identified by stains from a piece of bacon which Miller had been carrying in his pocket with the bills. In a package ol tobacco in the possession of Williams was also found a device for opening doors by turning thc key when left in the door. created in the city. Judge Forin spoke of the ready response in Nelson and Trail at the formation of the branches of the Fund there. In Trail ^00 a month was being subscribed for the relief of the Belgians and the monthly subscriptions to the Patriotic Fund would be 81500 a month. I Speaking of the war he said that the teacnings of Galilee had been cast away by the Germans. The British would never submit to the flag which bore the double headed vulture of Germany. Those who had not something worth dying for had not a great deal worth living for. The em-! Mire wnnM surprise the world with the exhibition of its generosity and its resources. The Belgians hnd been a friend to the British empire which had promised to sta,nd by them. The empire would never go back on them, it would never break its word. If the Much interest is being taken in tho GermanB broke through one line 0, defence there would be others behind lt. He had himself worn the The case of Rex. vs Tapping, a claim Ior SI000 compensation Ior Iobs of a thumb and a claim for $5,310 with several minor cases were disposed of this morning by Judge Forin Ln the county court. In the case of Rex. vs J. C. Tapping, in which J. C. Tapping is charged with do:ng grevious bodily injury to Jerry O'Leary, by biting off part of his car, there was no appearance on behalf of the Crown and thc case was adjourned until October 2S. when Judge Forin will dismiss the case if the Crown doeB not intimate that it proposes to continue the prosecution, G. S. McCarter, who appeared for the defence, said that the Crown evidently had uo intention of proceeding and he asked that the case b.e dismissed. His Honor said that he had no intimation that the Crown had dropped the case. Mr McCarter said that this prosecution had been hanging over for a long time and defendant's business was Buttering. The judge said that he thought defendant was getting off easily. It looked as if th« case was going by the board. He thought that he had made a mistake in granting bail. Mr. McCarter said thut the defence was ready. Judge Forin replied that the defence had delayed in electing for trial and the witnesses hnd now dispersed. Time had oeen In favor of the. 'defence. Mr. McCarter said that the defence had not interfered with the witnesses. He wished the witnesses were present so that tbe court might see them. The judge said that he had seon the witnesses and they had impressed him favorably as respectable men. The Crown should enter nolle prosequi or go on with the case. He would adjourn the case, allowing the same hail, until October 28. If the Crown made no effort to bring its witnesses he would then dismiss the case Donald McLeod vs. Foley Bros.

Time for Rebate on Taxes Extended Until End of November At a special meeting of the city council held on Monday evening the bylaw arranging thc tinancing of bhe cement sidewalks constructed this year waB given its first, second and third readings. I The sidewalks are paid for by means of 20 year "'i per cent bonds. Thc total cost of the sidewalks is $12,500, of which the city pays $*179.'l and the owners >s*-7f»7. The yearly rate is KU07.-27. The cost per square foot is l'i cents with 10c. per foot for edges. On First street the cost per foot frontage will be 81.52 on Third street west Si.24 and on other streets 81.14. Several of the alderman expressed the opinion that the sidewalks were by far the cheapest ever constructed for the city and the best. A court of revision of the sidewalk assessment will be held on November 13. The advisability ol continuing the bitulithic pavement on First street to meet the pavement at the eu- trnnce to the hospital wus discussed and it was decided that the work should be done at the general expense of the city, The estlimated cost Is **S00. The question was brought up by thc mayor who said that most cities made grants to their hospitals. Revelstoke got off cheaply. He thought that an extension of the pavement would much improve the approach to the hospital and the appearance of the building, Aid. Bell concurred. He said that it would be a disgrace to the city to leave the work as it is at present. •\H Needham also believed that the work should be done. Aid. McSorley thouegtit that the approach could be made almost equally good by the use ol crushed rock. Aid. Bourne jras of the opinion that $800 was a good deal of money to spend for work which would even then be incomplete and no great improvement. On a vote being taken, Aids. Bell, Needham and Smythe voted for doing the work, Aid. McSorley voted against and Aid. Bourne did not vote. Aid. Pradolini was absent. After the matter had been decided a delegation consisting of A. McRae, C. R. Macdonald, R. Gordon. W. A. AnsPie, Rev. C. A. Procunier, A. B. Kincaid, A.B. McClenegham, G.S. McCarter, and J.H. Lyon waited on the council to urge thut the pavement he undertaken. They were informed of thc decision of the council and left in high good humor after Mr. McRae had expressed thc thanks of the hospital board to the council for Its attitude toward the uospttal. As tbe delegation left the room some of tbem struck up "For They are Jolly Good Follows" and Aid. Bourne remarked that it was seldom tbat he heard the coundil referred to in such terms. The council decided unanimously to extend the time for rebftte on taxes for one month, until the end of November. W. A. Gordon, city clerk, with the mnyor will be the delegation from the city at the convention of municipalities in Kamloops this wrek. The meeting Is held on Thursday and Friday. A communication was received from the Peachland muntcipaHtv asking tho council's support for a proposal thnt the government take char.-!1 of municipal sinking funds and ' loney to municipalities at fi per cent. The letter was filed. Consideration of the market ite bylaw will be taken up at thc next regular meeting of the council.

INVITATION TO BELGIANS Suggestion that Letters be Placed in Pockets of Clothes for Belgian Refugees Thnt the people ol Revelstoke have now an excellent opportunity of interesting the best class of settlers ia the advantages ol British Columbia was the opinion of a prominent business man expressed to the Mail-Herald on Monday. He recommends tbat a letter setting forth the attractions of the Revelstoke district and expressing a h.»arty welcome to Belgians be placed in the pockets of every article of clothing sent to aid the Belgian fugees, and he suggested that S. Robbins, or some one who has knowledge of the language and country, mifeht draft a letter publication in the Mail-Herald that it might be copied by those who are unable to write one themselves. The Belgians, he said are Irugal and industrious and the best of agriculturists and exact'y the kind of settlers that British Columbia most needs. Many o' them, be believed, would never return to tbeir own country and he thought that if their attention wus drawn to the opportunities of the Revelstoke district some might be induced to make their homes in the neighborhood. re- G. a the for so DELEGATE TO WINNIPEG Rev.

Thc president's address was as foi- lows' ■ Gentlemen:—Iu presenting to you the thirteenth annual report of the Revelstoke hospitnl society, it will only be necessnry to review the work accomplished for the past year. Tiro new hospital is now fully equipped and quite Unished With the exception of the grounds in front. This is now boing done and thc Warren Construction company is laying a bithulitlc pavement in the drive-way. This they are very kindly doing at their own expense, and without cost to the society. As will be seen from the treasurers report the umount yet owing on the building and furnishings is 128580.00. Owing to the falling ofl Un revenue from our contract patrons we have not been able to reduce the umounts vcry materially. The revenue from paying patients in the hospital has increased largely from last year, but at the same time the expense of operating such a large institution has also greatly increased. The Canadian Pacific railway employees have withdrawn their contract with the Hospital society and formed a hospital and medical association of their own and pay their monthly lees direct to it instead of to the society as formerly. It is as yet too early to determine just what effect this will have on the revenue of the hospital. 4s the lumber companies have not heen operating to any great extent tho past year and have now closed down, the revenue has not been very great from that source and has now practically ceased. The medical superintendent's report will show a large increase in patients treated and hospital days. I The Alexandra hospital at Arrowhead has not been opened since we had to close it in the early wHnter of 191*2. The Chase hospitnl has been in operation right along, but nearly all the revenue derived from there hus been pnld in by the Adams River Lumber Company, under contract for their employees. As they bave now censod operating for the winter we will probably be obliged to close it up also unless the citizens of Chase, with whom we have been negotiating can take it ofl our hands by purchase. We have oflered to allow them to operate it at their own expense for the winter unt'il arrangements can be made for the purchase money. The Kevelstoke Hospital society has come to the conclusion that Chase is too far away for us to operate the hospital there satisfactorily. The Ladles Hospital Guild arc taking every Interest in tbe hospital and. doing a good nnd useful work. Tho hospital staff are all that can lie desired and no complalntB what-1 ever have been received. In closing I desire to thank the hoard of directors sitting with mo for the interest they have taken ln hospital nflnirs, and all the citizens who have so kindly assisted ln making this Institution so popular, and I sincerely trust tbat interest will continue as owing to the war in which our empire is now unfortunate- I fy engaged and consequent heard times the hospital will no doubt neod all the assistance possible.

Ore hauling on a reduced scale from the Union mine in Franklin camp to Lynch creek will be resumed in a few days. It is proposed to keep three teams at this work all winter, and probably two cars of ore will be shipped monthly from Lynch creek to the Trail smelter. Henry Bretzlns, who returned on Tuesday from the Bablne ran^e, brought some splendid ore samples Irom the Debenture group on which he has done considerable work this season. He is greatly pleased with his showing. The Debenture is about eight miles from the Cronln property which has been developed considerably this season.—Hazelton Miner. At the Trail smelter last week the ore treated Irom mines iu tho Ainsworth and Slocan divisions was as follows: Tons Ruth 83 Rambler-Cariboo 9-2 Hewitt 67 Whitewater 7(1 Reports of pilfering from camps on the Slocan side ol the divide are noted by thc Record. Blankets and other parts ol the outfit were stolen from the Hartney a week ago Sunday. Pilfering from other campB are reported. The overhauling of the big concentrator at the Cork-Province is now underway, the mill crew from the Molly Gibson having been hired Hn a body to fix up and operate the mill on the South Fork property. After a preliminary overhauling the mill is to be set to work, and any defects tending to loss of values thereafter corrected. It is believed a closer separation can be effected by finer grinding. W. Clifte is in charge of the mill crew. Shipments will likely be made, though it necessary, the output may be stacked up awaiting improved market conditions. Mining men throughout the western states are assuming a very optimistic air as a result of the war and the price it will have on metals. Considerable attention is being paid to silver and it is pointed out that as soon as the atmosphere has cleared up the price of silver will rapidly advance to sixty-five cents. One of the big operators even ventured the opinion that dollar silver was not out of the question. All are agreed that tbe price will advance to such an extent that all the silver mines will be re-opened and thut hundreds of prospectors will take to the hills in search of silver. A lcadincr London lead merchant says the war cannot last long because the world's supply ol lead is Insufficient to maintain the supply of bullets. If each mun in the field fired only 100 rounds it would exhaust the present stock of lead. This sounds encouraging to local lead producers and ibdicntes that sooner or later the heavy metal must h'it rock bottom and go up with a bang. Word comes from Summit Camp that Ernest Rice has struck a very fine body of ore on his property there. The ledge, so the report states is -even feet in width, in which there is a six incn seam of gold und silver ore that runs -'iini to the ton, Mr- Rice is making arrangements to get oat <--:eht or 10 tons this full. The ore will be packed down to Coalmont and from there shipped to the smelter at Trail. Mr. Rice's property is three miles from Andrew Jensen's camp and the two use the same trail. Mr. Jensen also intends shipping about 10 ton of $300 ore this lall. . ■ - himself doing ! nt work. ,\ r-"-,.,'-' appean to hove L'.uned wvp. circulation to the effect that the coal mi:'--! -.t Prln<eeton «re bum- mi? that tbe •*-')rkin?s 'if the mine irere ■• i practical standstill, and ' tbe e-e.mpany leglnnlng to feel appreb-Mut-re for their winters sap] •:-.

During the past week quite an optimistic spirit has grown up in the district in regard to the mining industry. The Trail smelter has sent out circulars offering to accept silver- lead ores, and on a basis that will enable most of the properties to resume operations. The conditions are not as favorable as before the war on account of the silver market, which is controlled ia England, being still closed. As soon as it is reopened all claims will be adjusted accordingly. Before the end of the week it is expected that another circular will be forthcoming, which will make the terms even better. As a result of the smelter taking ore again, the Harris mines will resume work next week, and will take out ore all winter, givinir employment to several men. It is also rumored that two or three other properties will resume work now that the smelter will accept ore, thus making quite a mining stir in the district.—Omineca Herald.

"Clothes have to be worn and the necessaries of life provided for, and almost every article with the exception of purely seasonable goods is in equal demand in the summer as in the winter. "Then, again, in the summer people do not work so hard—there is more leisure time, and just because they have more time for reading it is logical to state that they have more time for reading advertising.

SOUTH ROUTE FOR S00 TRAINS Penticton Expects That Thf y Will Run to Coast Through Kettle Valley The Penticton Herald says;—The Soo l'ine, generally accepted as being controlled by the Canadian Pacific railway is featuring! the Boundary, Similkameen and Lower Okanagan in special pamphlets for the Panama Pacific exposition next year and it is believed that a great many travellers to and from the fair will use the Crow's Nest and Kettle Valley route. ' Announcement that the Soo line, proposed to induce fair tourists to trsvsi yia Southern British ColumtiSa' was ma3e here this week by Presi-, dent J. J. Warren. ol the Kettle Valley, at a conference between re-! presentatives of the municipal coun-j cil and board of trade and Canadian Pacific railway traffic men. "The Soo in its folders for the Panama Pacific fair is featuring the southern Okanagan, Similkameen, Kettle valley, Boundary and Crow's Nest districts," said Mr. Warren,1 "and particular attention iB being pa'id to Penticton. The line hopes to 'ret a share of the fair tourist trade, both going and coming, via the Crow's Nest, and Kettle Valley to Spence's Bridge and the Canadian Pacific railway main line." The implication left by Mr. Warren was plainly that next year the Soo line trains, which have up to the present been operated to the coast on the Canadian Pacific railway main line, would run through south-j ern British Columbia. While the Soo' train is not operated to the coast ou the present Winter schedule, that is solely because of the necessity of re-' ducing the Canadian Pacific railway \ time-table on account of dull condi-1 tions. Ordinarily the Soo trains are operated from Chicago and Minneapolis up to the Canadian Pacific railway main line via North Portal nnd Moose Jaw. Thence the trains run west to Mission junction where they are divided one section going to Vancouver and the other to Seattle. The proposal for next year apparently is '.hat the Soo l'ine trains will leave thc Canadian Pacific railway main line at Medicine Hat and come west to th-J coast via the Crow's I Nest, Kettle Valley, and Spence's Bridge route. No doubt later on the Hope cut-off would be substituted for thc Spence's Bridge section. i, Eventually, also, the main line of the Canadian Pacific railway between : Moose Jaw and Medicine Hat would be dropped by these trains when the short line west from Weybum on the North Portal branch, is completed to Lethbrldge. This is to lorm a link l in a new Canadian Pacific railway I line running from Hope through i southern British Columbia, southern Albertn, Saskatchewan and Manitobb to Winnipeg. Penticton hopep eventually not on- ' ly to have a Soo train dally each ' way, but also one of the Canadian Pacific railway trains to and Irom enstern Canada "Sunlight is the Miner's Joy" THERE'S no dirt too stiff to yield to the gentle strength of Sunlight Soap.

Under the direction of W. H. Stevens, district superintendent, they are atJ tempting to get the work provided for in this year's estimates finished hefore winter stops operations. One party of men is rebuilding the line from Kamloops to Barrlere, 42 miles up the North Thompson river, Another is busy from Kamloops to Ashcroft, taking in Savannah and Walhachin to give communication between Kamloops and the Cariboo country direct. The third gang is building a line from Kamloops to Enderby, 105 miles away, connecting at Ducks, Pritchard, Chase, Sorento and Salmon Arm. Work will ibe finished in about five weeks, whou there will be six lines, more than 350 miles long, giving connection out of Kam- loOps. ious work in Penticton, and residents of the district breathe easier, says tbe Penticton Herald. Not that thej had anything to fear Ior themselves, but the habits of a person who would send scurrilous communications to respected citizens defaming others cannot be anything but an or- lence to a self-respecting community.
