Toronto, June 8.—To-day's elections in Ontario resulted in a land sweep in favor of the Whitney government. In the last House of 98 members, Mr. Whitney had behind him 70 members, leaving tbe Opposition 28. At the last session tbe number of seats was increased to 106 The Conservatives thought that if they were able to carry 70 seats io to-day's election they would be holding their own, the increased representation being given to the Liberals. The Government, however, did better than it anticipated, carrying no less than 86 seats, leaving 17 for the Liberals, two seats being in doubt, and Mr. Studholme, the Labor candidate, being elected in Hamilton. All the members of tbe Government were returned, mostly by a very large majority, the exception being Hon. Nelson Monteitb, in South Perth, who only bas a majority of 30. The Conservatives carried all eight seats iu Toronto, and nearly all by majorities running into the thousands most of the other candidates losing their deposits. Tbe best fight was made by Rev. D. C. Hossack, who was only defeated by Mr. John Shaw by about 400. New Ontario went solidly for the Government. Though the returns received are not yet fully completed, tbe majorities sppear to be large. Liberals were elected in the following constituencies : South Bruce, North Grey, Haldi- mand, Centre Huron, East Lambton, North Middlesex, West Northumberland, East Ottawa, North Oxford, South Oxford, North Renfrew, Russell, East Simcoe, Stormont, West Wellington, Soutb Wentwortb. Mr. Studholme, Labor, was elected in East Hamilton. Leeds and Manitoulin are in doubt, and all tbe remainder of the seats were carried by tbe straight Government candidate. Hamilton, June 8.—Warrants were issued this morning for the arrest of William Lawson, Conservative Deputy Returning Officer for Division 37, and Henry Dillabsugh, Conservative Poll Clerk, in Division 42.

WANT ROAD TO G.T.P. RY. QUEBEC ELECTION Conservatives Make a Gain of Nine Seats Montreal, June 9.—The Quebec general elections which took place Monday, resulted in tbe return of tbe Gouin Government by a reduoed majority. The Opposition bad seven members io tbe last House; in the new one it will leave 16. Tbe feature of the new contest was tbe fight in the St. James Division of Montreal between Premier Gouin and Mr. Henri Bourassa, the Nationalist leader. Tbe Premier was considered impregnable in tbis division, which he bas represented for some years, but Mr. Bouiassa conducted a whirlwind campaign snd defeated tbe Premier by 61 votes. Tbe Premier will be in tbe next bouse, aa be was also a candidate in Portneuf, and was elected tbere by a majority of 825, Mr. Bourassa ran for two consistencies, bis second being St. Hyaciuthe where tbe vote was a tie. The returning Officer will vote for Mr. Bouraisa's opponent but the prospects are that Mr. Bourassa will be seated on the recount. Aoothei feature was the defeat of the two Conservative leaders, Messrs. Leblanc and Pel le tier, the former in Laval by 17, and tbe latter in Dorchester by a large majority. Mr. Armand Lavergne, who resigned his seat in tbe House of Commons to run lor Montmagny, wss successful. All the members of the Gouin government were returned by good majorities. The constituencies carried by the Conservatives and Nationalists were: Beauharnois, Charlevoix, Chateau gtiery, Comptoo, Two Mountains, Jaoques-Oartier. Juliette, Laprairie.

Joint Delegation from Vancouver and Revelstoke Boards of Trade Urge Government to Build Road from Revelstoke. Tbe Vancouver World of yesterday says: "A delegation from Bevelstoke left for Victoria last night, accompanied by a committee from the Vancouver board of trade. They will place before the government the necessity ol building a wagon road north from Revelstoke to allow supplies to be taken in from tbat point to the construction camps on the Grand Trunk Pacific west of the Yellow Head Pass. "After conferring with the board ol trade yesterday afternoon and receiving the hearty co-operation of that body, the Revelstoke delegation hurried to Victoria to discuss the matter with tbe board of trade in that city. The Revelstoke party consists of A. McRae, postmaster; G. S. McCarter, lawyer; W, M. Lawrence, hardware man; and C. B. Hume, merchant. Tbe local board of trade coutingent ap pointed to accompany the delegation consists of E. H. Heapj, F. Buncombe and R. H. Alexander. Thos. Taylor, M.P.P., arrived in the city today from Kevelstoke and will go to Victoria in connection wilh the matter. In an interview today Mr. McCarter said: "What is wanted is that the trail now running to the mouth of Canoe river, a distance of 90 miles, be cleared so that it will be available for a sleigh road iu winter, and that a wagon road be constructed from the mouth of Canoe river to Tete Jaune Cache, another 90 miles. If this is done, the supplies may be taken in during the winter to Canoe river, and freighted in summer to the csmps. One section of tbe G.T.P., 79 miles in length, west of the Pass, has to be built rigbt away, and if the road is available for tbe contractors of tbis, supplies will be taken in by this route ior other sections westward. We want this route right away, otherwise the route ol supply will be via Edmonton. "Revelstoke ie not asking anything too much. There are nine miles of wagon rosd along this line running out of the city, and further on another six miles bas beeu built by people engaged in logging. About $12,000 has been raised by subscription in Revelstoke in aid ol the proposed improvement, but we should not be asked to do even this, as tbe road will run through a territory thick with timber, and from which the Government derives about $200,- 000 a year reveuue. All thut we ask is that 25 per cent, of one year's revenue be devoted to improvement in the district. Not only will vast tracts 01 timber he opened up, but access will be given to valuable mining properties both between Revelstoke aod Canoe River and beyond. These are worked now, but development will expand rapidly if better means of transportation are afforded. As it is now, there is transportation by water as far as Death Rapids, and from Death Rapids on to Canoe River. Assistance is being asked from the Dominion Government toward constructing a tram line around the rapids which will greatly facilitate traffic. "Contractor! for Q. T. P. construction who havo looked over the route speak favorably of it, and with the cooperation from the Boards ol Trade of Victoria and Vancouver, and assistance from the Government, a large trade will be kept within the Province."

Nu doubt the educated Japanese is as a rule a charming personality, but it is not tho educated Japanese that is being brought here or is being mixed up in these continual troubles. It maybe Raid that the Japanese coolies are irresponsible because they are ignorant and are dangerous because their national esteem has boon built on a lack ol understanding of their proper relations to mankind at large. ThiB is probably true, but it mikes it all the moro necessary that they should be excluded Irom civilized com in un il ies whioh do not understand thorn and do not share their sympathies and peculiarities. ll seems most remarkable that after cotumiuing the outrage at Carlin Siding these men should not have been punished. It is to be presumed that their number, there were eighty in all, and the realiza tion on the part oi tbe authorities that the responsibility for the in juries to the conductor could not be placed on the right shoulders, induced the officials to overlook the incident altogether.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1908 ORIENTAL DANGER In the attack which was made recently at Carlin .Siding, between Revelstoke and Kamloops, by a crowd of Japanese coolies, on C.P. R. trainmen we have au illustration of what we may expect not infreqnenily wben the?e Orientals find ihemseives in sufficient numbers in any locality in the province to d>-ly '.he law, says a Coast con- temporary. The story, and ils si,rn:nuance is not imps-irei by the fuel thnt it required a party ol otiki-lr in atiihoriiy lo go up lhe line uml pacify the orientils. Thai a croud nl alien-, under the impression lhat they were the victims of a trick, should consider ihtin- selvee at liberty to take the law into their own hands under any circumstances. The same right will readily be conceded to thorn that iB conceded to all others, tho right of defending themselves when attacked. But this wae not a case of self-defense, but of unjustifiable assault upon innocent men. The feature of the incident which impresses one moet is tbe reckless impulse to do hurt which was manifested by these people, the tame impulse which characterized . the attack upon the three firemen in Vancouver on New Year's eve, the same impulse which we find manifesting itself wherever the Japanese are in Jorce and can find weapons. It iB tbat characteristic in these people which must render them for all time undesirable residents in TUBERCULOSIS The government and people of British Columbia have shown a highly commendable interest in providing for the care of patients suffering from consumption, and excellent results are already reported. It is now stated that the management of the Sanitarium at Tranquille is short of funds for the maintenance of that institution, and necessary there will be an appeal to the public for money which will doubtless be forthcoming. But we venture to ask why such appeals should be necessary. If sanitaria are needed in the public interest, and no one raises a question upon that point, why ahould not the public support them. Why should the management be compelled to appeal to the public for money, aB if they were promoting some organization in their own interest? Why should people be asked to contribute as though they were supporting a charity? We are far from suggesting that persons bo inclined should not give freely to suoh institutions, but there is no more valid reason why the provision for the care of people with unsound lungs should be left in whole or in part to voluntary contributions than that the care of people with unsound minds should be. The people of British Columbia having recognized that tbe maintenance of such institutions as that at Tranquille are necessary in the public welfare, we submit if the legislature ought not to make provision for their support. This is not to say that those who can afford to pay for treatment should not do so, but only that the management should be relieved of the necessity of making appeals to those who are charitably disposed for assistance in maintaining what it is conceded is one of the most important works that can be undertaken in this or any other country. There may, of course, be an aspect of this case which has not yet presented itself io us, and we should be very glad to have the views of others upon It, STEAMER R088LAND ENTERING NAKUSP £\RBOR. broken at tho ankle.

A special meeting of the Board of Trade was held on Saturday afternoon with a good attendance. President F. B. Lewis was in the chair. In coming at once to the subject for which the meeting was called, G. 8. McCarlei said that Mr. Gall, who had contracts for tha construction of tbe G. T. P. and who had recently returned from a trip up the Big Bend and Cunoe Rivor said that ho favored that route und was punitive that the Canoe River ,vas navigable for at least four months of the year for light draft steamers. The west channel through the log jamb would cost little to clear und above that was a stretch of 25 miles of good water for light draft vessels, as far as Pack Saddle for about four months in tho year. He suggested a wagon road to Tete Jaune Cache from Canoe River and a sleigh road to the mouth of the Canoe River. Mr. Gall did not want his base of operations in different places in different seasons ot tbe year and strongly favored tbe Canoe River route provided that it would be open in winter. Mr. McCarter suggested that the trail from Revelstoke to Canoe River be widened to a road seeing that the work would be easy. He said that this was a matter where, if sucb roads were constructed to the Cache, Revelstoke would materially benefit. Mines and lumber camps would be operated and every industry would derive benefit from it. The people should get together and push this matter, aod the city council should also take it up so that a good proposition can be put up to Ihe government and secure this winter route. C. F. Lindmark said it was a vital question and promised to put a by law before the people to raise $5000 towards the fund, but he could not take I it out of the current revenue. His j own company would help and do all ; they could. G. S. McCarter said that the steamboat company would carry up men 1 aod supplies free. He also said that the Vancouver board should be informed by the appointed delegates of thin new turn oi atTairs regarding the route, ar.d suggs-sted that a committee be formed to rind out just what can is. raised in furthering the scheme. A resolution was passed, asking Mr. Taylor, M. P. P , to accompany tbe del"(;a_es down on Sunday. Mr Taylor, in replying, said he would do all he could to further the scheme. Mr. Lindmark suggested that the I Victoria B.ard of Trade ho interested The cost of roads and sleigh roads was freely discussed, and Mr. Lewis then suggested that lhe delegates should ask the government to assist in building the route to the Cache, putting up half the cost. Mr. McCarter suggested that the i committee wait on Mr. Cowan and ask I him to extend his telephone line to I Canoe River in event of this route| being decided on, apd further suggested that the Dominion government he asked to afford postal facilities inl French Creek, where many men were I working. The meeting then adjourned. This is a good time to order rnillj wood. The Bowman Lumber Co. are' making low prices for five loads ur more. NINE MILLION FEETOFTIMBER Running Amuck Down Slocan River Owing to Bursting of a Big Boom—Loss Estimated at Sixty Thousand Dollars Nelson, June 9.—Word readied the city yesterday morning that owing to tbe bursting of tbe boom of the Patriek Lumber Company,on the Slocan river, some 9,000,000 feet of timber went out and down the river. The loss is said to be about $60,000. The boom was situated about four miles from the junction of the Slocan and Kootenay rivers, and about twelve miles from the Columbia river. There are several mills on the Columbia river, and it is hoped that their booms will catch most of the logs as they go down towards the ocean. Tbe mill and boom of the company are distant some 30 miles to the west of this city. High water at the flood stage caused the trouble. Famine in Lumber. Speaking about tbe lumber outlook, Mr. Campbell, manager ol the West Kootenay Light A Power Co., eaid to the Rossland Miner, that a large number of settlers have arrived in the Northwestern provinces (his year, and more are coming in. The stocks of lumber in the yards on the prairies are depleted, while the lumber supplies at the mills in the interior of this province are limited. Logging operations in this province were stopped all last winter oo account of the cessation in the lumber demand from the prairies aod elsewhere, and there is but little material ou band for tbe mills to work on. Tbe new arrivals on the prairies must have bouses, barns and fences, and tbe lact tbat tbere are to be large crops will tend to increase thedemaud of lumber. As a result of tbe ex pected increased demand and tbe lack of preparedness on the part of tbe millmen in the way of logs, Mr. Camp, bell says he expects to see a regular lumber famiue on the prairies this fall.

ANNUAL CHURCH PARADE Knights of Pythias and Pythian Sisters Attend Divine Service Following is ii synopsis uf n seimon preached iu the Methodist church on Sundny evening, June 7th, to the local members of tbe Knights of Pythian and tho Pythian Sinters, by Rev. T. VV. Hall. Tho preacher took for his text, Prov. 29; 7 and James 1; 27, "The righteous cousideretli the cause of the poor; bin the wicked regitrdeth not to know it." Pure religion aod undented before God aud the Father is this. "To visit the fatherless and the widows in their afflictions," and, to "keep himself unspotted from the world." After showing in bis introduction that tbe teacbing of the combined text was, "Treatment of tbe needy; one of the highest tests of human character." Tbe speaker divided his subject into four beads, treating each head as follows: 1. The test is Divine.—The principle by which character is tested by your order, is professionally based upon this trutb. But the principle is borrowed. The system was like all other human systems, imperfect, and needed a Divine principle as its mainspring. Where did tbe principle come Irom? Was it ever manifested before Damon offered his life as a pledge for Pythias? Gad lirst announced the prinoiple when he said to Cain, "Tbe voice ol thy brother's blood crietb unto me from tbe ground." When God wanted the character of bis ancient people obanged so that tbey would in their conduct be in harmony with himself, be said," Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil your doing from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; learn to do well, seek judgment, relieve the oppressed; judge the fatherless, plead for the widow." "Ib not this the part that I lu.ve chosen; is it not to deal out thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring tbe poor tbat are cast out to thy houses and that when thou see tbe naked that thou cover him." If the system begun in the early Christian church had been perpetuated there would bave been no need for any of tbe orders of today, nor the revolutions which threaten tbe social order now. Tbe teacbing of that first order was: "Who so hatb this world's goods, and seeth bis brother in need, and shuttetb up bis bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth tbe love ol NOTICE Notice is hereby given that I intend to apply to the Superintendent of Provincial Police for a renewal of the Retail Liquor Licence for the Lardeau Hotel at Comaplix, B.C., for the half- year from July 1st, 1908, to Dec. 31st. 1906. w niOHOd KuesKL M, Evans.

We may all he r ch in kind winds u. d iu love like Christ's love. 3. The lest is blessed", lining n lod to the needy not only blesses the re eeiver, it also blesses the giver. No doubt lhe experience of some ol the visiting brethren and sisterB of this Order has been lhat it was mure blessed to give than to rec ive. Such in expressed in the sentiment of Job, 29; 13: "I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy." To know, in the dark hour, when the bread-winner has been perhaps, suddenly shut off by the baud of death, that someone cures for her well being. What a bright spot in the heavens which might otherwise appear dark. 4. Tbe test will be final. Accord ing to the Scriptures what shall separate tbe wicked from the just in the great day? tt will not be tbe result of caprice or arbitrary power, but according to tbe law of benevolence. Why shall some be placed on the right hand of the Judge, and what is the reason assigned for it? "I was hungry and ye gave me drink, Matt. 25; 35. According to the teaching of Jesus Christ, the principle in this Scripture ie the one tbat shall determine our destiny. Tbe person who will not live a life of godly benevolence oannot in the nature of the case enter heaven; for without this there is no oonformity to God. "God is love." "He lhat lov eth not, knoweth not God, Ior God is love." Not tbat lor the sake of these acts of mercy on our part we shall be saved but if they are done for Christ's sake and in Hie name we shall win the eternal reward. But the idea! teaching is in the closing thought of the text: 'To keep himself unspotted from lhe world." It may be said that this Order does not claim to set up such a high ideal Why not? Why claim the first part and not the secoud and last? " Pure religion and tindeliled before God and tbe Father is this: To visit the fatherless and widows in their allliction." That is the first part, and the Order teaches that, but you should not stop short of the other grand ideal: "To keep himself unspotted from the world." Offering the Order represented God speed in all that is praiseworthy, and helpful to poor, sick, suffering, sorrowing and dying men and women, the speaker reminded all present that the the. Independent Hand, marched to the Oddfellows'ball over the old post olliee where the Pythian brethren had asaeu led.

One of the negroes killed was Jim Kingsbury, who murdered Sheriff Garrison, of Oklahoma City, near Hitchcock, and wbo was being hunted by several posses. The battle was fought when the posse came on Kingsbury, in the hills near Cleo Springs about midnight. The posse numbered 700 men, all armed. Feeling had been running high, all day, and when Kingsbury, instead of being alone, aa ut lirst reported, was joined in the hills by a large number of negro companions. The details of the buttle were not received, but the negroes were prepared for the attack and returned, the fire, several volleys being fired by both Bides. Watongit, which is near tbe scene of the battle, has a negro population of 2,000, and it is feared the fight may start a campaign of extermination by the whitcB against this community. The negroes hold the balance of power politically in that eection of the state and the whites have openly expressed THREE VALLEY LAKE.. God ih bim. My little ohildren let us not love in word, or in tongue, but in deed and tn truth." The principle lay in tbe great heart of God ages before tbis order wss brought into being. It was in tbe saered shunt of Jesus Christ, "wbo, though he was riob became poor, tbat we through bis poverty might be rich." Tbe Great Master over all will not determine our character by our conformity to creed; by our mode of worship; by our seal, regularity or devotion in working out our religious opinions; but by a standard ol love; practieal kindness to the poor, tbe needy and distressed. 2. Tbis test pf character is practical —The Divine test ef religion is philanthropy. It is like tbe diamond, pure and white. In human nations tbis diamond is loved for love suits all graces. To bear each other's burdens is to fulfil tbs law ol Christ which is love. This practical test comes within the reach of all. Had it been a standard of theological knowledge, or an ornate method of religious worship, it would have been out of tbe reach ol man. But practical kindness is always available, lor the poor, the needy, tho sick and dying are always here. While tbe members of this order have the means to help and are compelled to do so, yet by a higher law every one highest example of endurance, of kindness of cross bearing for the sake of others is in Jesus Christ. He offers not only to all members of tbis Order, but to all others, a fellowship tbe very closest, a union the very strongest, a brotherhood and sisterhood tbe very dearest, and a reward for all we do for His sake, which shall be eternal. It is ours now to beal tbe sick, to relieve the distressed, to bind up the broken hearts, and to raise the burdens from off the souls that are ready to sink. May it be ours by God's saving grace, when the last sob shall be beard, and the last pain shall be felt, and the last struggle for health and bread and life shall be over to bear the Grand Master over all say: "Inasmuch as ye did it unto one ol tbe least of those ye have done it unto me."

Retail Grocers Association Here are the reasons given for tho formation of a retail grown1 organization comprising merchants from Vancouver, Victoria, New Westminster and Nanaimo, a step taken this week when the B. C Retail Grocers' association was formally brought into existence, says the Vancouver News Advertiser. "Tn foster and maintain a permanent social feeling among the retail grocers of British Columbia; to obliterate distrust and inspire confidence among the mem ben uf the trail... to correct excessive and mini errant ile competition; to remove by concert, of action such evils and oostoras as are against good policy and .nunc! business principle—whether it lie cutting uf prices, selling of the wholesale house at retail, improper honsS-tO- house peddling, the distribution and consumption of adi.Iterated and un. wholesome goods, the une of flotitloui labols, the use of dishonest weights and measures, or whatsoever the evil may be; to disseminnte useful information, to watch and influence legislation towards the Iielter protection of capital; to assist members in collecting delinquent accounts; to encourage the observance of the Sabbath and all legal holidays, and to attain tho results which experience hss proved are not attainable by individual or divided effort." Railways and Timber. The railway builder has to i often Bounded the deatb-knell of the forest. Only of late years has tbe necessary oare been exercised to prevent tbe wholesale destruction of forests along railway lines in course of construction. The Canada Atlantic and tbe Tern- iscaming and Northern Ontario railways are examples of railway lines built, in eome portions, through valuable forests without any considerable damage having been done to tbe woods by fire. During the construction of tbe former its builder, Mr. John R. Booth, tbe well-known lumerman, laid down for bis contractors such regulations in regard to burning brush along tbe right of way and setting fires generally that no serious fire took place. Constant and careful patrolling of the line of tbe T. A N. O. has like, wise resulted in an almost complete absence of forest fires. An unfortunate contrast to this is presented in the construction of the C. P. R. lines in Northern Ontario and British Columbia. These were constructed before the days of careful overnight in tbe matter of fires along the right of way. In 1869 a fine green forest extended from Nipigon, Ont., westward to within a comparatively abort distance of Winnipeg. The passage of the troops through this coun try in 18H9 was partly responsible for its being burned over; but the building uf the railway in 1882-84 was responsible Ior a far greater proportion of the iuss. Around Canmore, B. C, and Kicking Horse Lake, too, occurred conspicuous examples of devastation wrought by forest tires arising from C. P. K construction In tbe building of the WOODMEN OF THE WORLD Local Camp Attend Divine Service at Knox Church Last Sunday evening Camp Mountain View attended divine worship at Knox PreBhyterian Church. There was a large attendance of the Woodmen, who occupied the centre seats. Sov. the Rev. J. R. Robertson, welcomed the brethren to the church am" after the opening numbers of tbe service rendered by the choir, preached from the general epistle of James, 1st chop , 16th and 27th verse*, dealing particularly with tbe inspired words: "Do not err, my beloved brethren," "Pure religion and undented before Ood and tbe Father ie this: To visit the fatherless and widows in their nllliction, and to keep himself unspotted Irom the world." Religion was a fundamental principle of life and the divine snd human oarae together in the perfect man. Fraternal societies were one wilh tbe ohurch in demonstrating this pure religion and the hsrmnn'es of tbe civilization of the ago to which we belong. Brotherhoods nere sometimes criticized for their secretive n .turc, but were not alone in this respect, other organizations being to au extent similar, also what man or woman but has something in his or her life to be revealed to none but God alone; moreover the laws and hy laws of societies were open to all. Fraternity held no place for a caste social system, nor recognize the commercial rating of the business world. Its splendid platform was simply one ol character, was a man good or bad? Nevertheless the brotherhood still had a regard fnr the whole world, and its great work was to go forward and link all mankind in the bonds of brotherhood. In this work tbe church and fraterual societies stood together. Tbe third principle of the Order was Charity. "Keep unspotted from the world. Visit tbe widow and tbe orphans, and rememner the dead." It is tbe family tbat wisely provides for itself tbat is best able to help others, and so an Order bas the best conception of its duty to the world. Claiming a divine source for fraternal societies, the preacher dwelt upon tbe Christian essentials necessary in all members before tbey can join, and while Orders bad their own conception of their social work all recognized the brotherhood ol tbe human soul. Tbe sermon was delivered with an eloquent earnestness aud straight- fotward manner tbat held the close attention of all. Tbe service included tbe singing of tbe two Woodmen hymns, "Jesus Lover of My Soul," and "Nearer My God to Tbee," tbe choir rendering tbeir part of tbe service wilh tbat perfect excellence of style so well known and appreciated by all lovers of sacred music. Having returned to tbe lodge room the Woodmen recorded a vote of thanks to Sov. tbe Rev .Mr.Robertson, for ibe sermon, a oopy of which was duly forwsrded. IKIS _S ONE 0*THE BEST HE 0?

May Adopt New System on Passenger Cars Attached to No. 97 on Saturday nigbt was the first passenger car on which tbe C.P.R. are experimenting witb tbe new system of lighting, it being tbeir intention of doing away with pintsch gas and all other combustible illuminatit and superseding tbem with electricity, Tbe car in question has been fitted witb a dynamo being bolted to the bottom underneath tbe car. A secondary battery or accumulator is also installed which is charged witb tbe superfluous current over and above wbat is required for lighting. A compact ammeter and volt meter witb switch for abutting off or putting on full or half lights in tbe car, is fixed in a convenient position where the conductor or brakenien can get at it. Five handsome four-lamp electroliers, as well as eight single brackets, are installed in the ear giving ample light, the new Testatum lamp being used. When the oar is running electricity is generated which Charges the battery and lights tbe lamps, there lieing sufficient current stored to last 16 hours il the car remained stationary that time. Current will lie generated at and over 6 miles an hour and a governor prevents overcharging il tbe speed gels beyond 30 to Ml. The trials have been most satisfactory so far, anil it is very probable that the C.P.It. will adopt the system on all their passenger cars. It is an English invention and used practioally on every railroad in Great Britain. All danger ol fire in event ol collision is eliminated and the machinery requires little or no attention. The electric light will lie a great improve ment ovor the gas, the light being stronger and better dispensed. A now stock ol Hooey—Wild Rose in bottles, 35o, White Clover, 5-lh tins $125. 0. B.
