—The List of Winners in

lu the liiiuls Revelssoke against
Vernon scored a majority of 41 runs,
wbile the digits in Vernon'B credit
tallied 36.
Tbe usual custom in counting
cricket scores, as tbe game is often a
slow one, is to allow the winner of the
first innings tbe second io a contest.
This occurred on Monday and Revelstoke got tbe award as against Kamloops on a count of time.
The matches were not exciting at
any time but were witnessed each
afternoon by a large number of friends
of the players, The occasions were
both dignified and made more than
usually enjoyable by tbe Berving of
tea and light refreshments by the
hostesses ou each occasion.
Empire Day Shoot
In common with other celebrators
of Empire Day the Revelstoke Guu
Club had an afternoon outing, during
which tbey enjoyed a shoot at tbe new
traps on tlieir range. The day was
ideal for marksmanship and nine of the
crack shots who bad not been tempted
out of tbe city by the excursions to
other points pinked the birds. Barber
and Sturdy were a tie on the firBt
count, Sturdy winning out in tbe
shoot oil'.   The score was as below i

Excursion to Enderby
A large number ol excursionists left
on the early morning train destined
for Etiderby on Monday. The day
wae ideal and the train schedule was
carried out but tbe time allowed by
tbe schedule for the local visitors to
remain at Enderby was not long
enough for an ideal day's sport, in tbe
way of a contest between tbe rivals
from two cities who bad to travel bo
far to reach each other.
In tbe lacrosse contest Revelstoke
beat Armstrong by four to two, but in
the baseball contest the home team
fell down the count out being ten to
seven in lavor of Enderby,
Minto Cup Stays at the Coast
It is old news at tbis time ol publication (or every sporting man in tbe
province knows tbat the Minto cup
will stay in British Columbia but
every patriot will experience a sense
of satisfaction at tbis knowledge. Tbe
descriptions of the contest at the oosst
which leaves the Westminster boys the
winners bave already been read by
everybody who takes any interest in
such matters.
It is said that the Keginiis or so-
called 'All Stars" did not even put up
a fight and that those* familiar with
the tactics of the game thought Irom
the outset tbat they were afraid of the
result. Tbe sport was in no way
markek by spirit and the results were
accordingly.
Much might be written in the de
Bcription of such a game but no written description can equal or enthuse
as a witnessing of the actual contest
and it will please the reador hest to
say at this date that tbe total goals in
the series netted Westminster 18 ami
Region 6.

HOSPITAL BENEFIT
Amateur Dramatic Club Makes
Hit on Monday Night
The members of the Revelstoke
Amateur Dramatic Club were yesterday and to-day receiving congratulations ol their friends on the success ol
their presentation of "All the Comforts
of Home" as a hospital benefit on
Monday night. The presentation of
the comedy was in every way credit
able and the congratulations are
deserved. The attendance at the opera
house was large and as creditable to
the people of Revelstoke as the production itself.
While tbe playlettc can scarcely be
dignified with the name of a comedy
proper, it would he equally improper
to say that there is no plot. Tbe lover
of ligbt comedy waits witb interest at
the drop of tbe curtain in each act for
tbe rise on the new revelations, The
caste bad evidently caught this spirit
in staging and performing the play,
(or there was vim aud spirit in the
opening sentences un beginning each
aot. Tbe members of the club presenting tbe play wera somewhat
handicapped by the fact tbat tbe caste
calls for a large number of characters
while most of the time only a few of
these occupy tbe stage. There was,
however, a smoothness of flow in the
dialogue tbat waB delighttul to listen
to aud the memory work was so uearly
perfect that ita excellency should be
mentioned.
There were spirited parts in each
act and it was apparent that theai
were not lost sight of by the perform
ers. Wbile it would be a delight to
analyze tbe characterizations of each
of those taking part, the limitations ol
space make this impossible. In tin
case of several of tbe artistes and
artists one would bave liked to Bet
them iu heavier rolea. The nature ol
the play allowid little latitude for tin
portrayal of strong emotion or nittura;
paasion, but where there was oppor
tiinity lor these, the most was made ol
the situation.
In an extended critique many things
might be said that would relied the
apparent sentiment of the audience as
to the merit of the performance, but it
is conceded to have been the best yei
put on by the local club. As in ever)
city of the size of Revelstoke there if
latent histrionic talent and this should
be encouraged whenever the members
ol an amateur club go to tbe trouble
and expense ol preparing tor such n
production. The audience last Mon
day night was not demonstrative, but
it was appreciative, and the lack ol
demonstration evidently arose from a
ouriosity to sec whether tbe players
would acquit themselves with mon
than usual credit.
The staging was good and credit
is reflected on the stage director.
Mention must bo made also ol tin
piiinislic renditions though it was a
pity tbat a lew stringed instruments
could not have been added to the
musical equipment.
Altogether Revelstoke need not
blush for ber Dramatic Club antl
many a good dollar has been paid in
metropolitan cities to witness a per
(ormance iu no way more creditable
to the performers than that of Mon
day.
Reginas Will Play Here
The Itegina "All Stars" who wen
deieated at New Westminster on Mon

lhe local lacrosse players a chance to

game on their return trip. Arrangements have been made tor lhe. Itegiuiu-

expect that it would." We think
such an admission curries its obvious meaning and excuses the
somewhat warm criticism which
this paper indulged in. Both papers agree however in saying that
it makes nu difference anyway as
the C.P.R. will determine what
action is taken irrespective of the
opinions or preferences of the peo-1
pie of llevelsloke. With ihis we j
cordially agree and will go further'!
and say that the.railway company
will (Hit its shops where it pleases
without regard to the preference of
the people of Kamloops. This
being the case the only rellection
which it occurs to us to innke is
that, in spite of the unprecedented
devolopment of the region round
about that city the Kamloops hoard
ol trade must lind time hang heavily on its hands, or else the appointment of useless ...committees is
done just for pastime.
Jt remains however fur the Observer, a paper which we believe ie
now printed in Revelstuke to champion the Kamloops action and by
an ingenious method lind an excuse
for the Kamloops board. As the
editorial of the Observer is unusually lengthy for that papes only
its salient features are dealt with.
It makes a vicious attack on a
leading citizen who has fallen under the ban of its displeasnre. It
slates that Kamloops is only retaliating for some action of the
local buard of trade in adopting a
committee report urging "the Canadian Northern to build through
the Columbia and Okanagan valleys (to Vancouver) instead of the
Thompson valley and Kamloops."
It would appear from this lugic
that Kamloops is amply and fully
justified in resenting the effort of
lhe Kevelstoke people to get the
Canadian Northern through to the
coast by way of this city but Revelstuke, forsooth, must not resent
the action of Kamloops in attempting to loot the city of its chief industrial asset. It has ceased to be
true then that what is sauce for
the gander. We opine that lhe
Kamloops people will not seriously
appreciate the helping hand held
out in so friendly a way hy the
local weekly paper.
What the business men ol Revel-
stake will think uf a paper that
depends upon them fur patronage
and draws its life blood out of tlieir
support and yel hastens to assure
Kamloops of its sympathy is a
question which we shall not attempt to answer. Perhaps it is
because the Observer wus, until so
recently, printed and published in
Kamloops that it has not yet
adapted itself to its purest air. It
is unfortunate however that elements uf personal dislike should so
strongly dominate an editorial
sanctum. Editors should be able
at all times to look up and down .1
street without seeing through blue

THK  KAMLOOPS CASK
Last week the M.ui -H1_.1tAi.11 took
occasion to criticise the spirit and
action of the Kamloops board of
trade in appointing a committee I 1
press upon the otiiciale of the C.P.
R. the removal of the railway shops
frum Revelstoke to that city, \\ e
Imd hoped that there wus an erron-
on- report in the Kamloops papers
announcing the (act but ther- is
no longer any doubt as to it- truth,
both the Kamloops journal; restal
ing and one ui them defending the
action. The main contention oft
this paper in the premises was that
it is an unneighborly net un the
piirt of a sister city and that it is!
at variance with the spirit ol the
west. The Sentinel however, while
•idmittiiiji that such a course is in
bad taste goes itself better in asserting that "there is no serious crime
in any city trying to better itr condition even at the expense ..I
another." We hope this sentiment
is not prevalent among the people
of Kamloops aud that it does not j
reflect the spirit of its board oft
trade, British Columbia is big and
wealthy enough in natural resources for all her cities and, if the
Kamloops papers are to be believed
the neighborhood of that city is
particularly prodigal of such. The
Sentinel admits that Revelstoke
peuple "naturally resent" the efforts
made 11.1 remove the shops but is
otherwise weak in its defence of its

company's directors, hut beyond
such interest in the business attempts no dictation. The Interior
Publishing Company employs a
competent staff and then leaves the
members of that staff to attend to
their respective duties. But in this
connection it is pertinent to ask:
" If the M.\ii,-lli:i<Ai,msMcCarter's
paper, whose paper is the Observer ?"    We pass it up.
Lowery, in the Greenwood Ledge,
says : " The man who allows a
board of trade to run his business,
will land in the hands of a sheriff."
We would respectfully ask the
city of Kamloops "what do yon
know about that ?."
WANTED—A powerful microscope to lind the man witb the host
who is so badly needed tn sprinkle
the streets. What is the use of
trying lo lind out whether there
are canals in Mars when there is no
moisture down here ?
A comfortable rellection results
from the fact that there are no
willingly idle men in the city.
Occasionally a "Weary William"
occurs, but not often. To the
credit oi the railroad men it should
be slated lhat Uiis class of traveller is discouraged. Transient travel
is increasing, and in common with
the other prospering cities of the
province, Revelstoke is experi
encing its summer revival of trade.
The increase in the number ol new
dwellings is a fair indication of
what is taking place.

Wil il," h-ive f. Tiiutii-ii -Buck" ihe I i
»h e dog   who is ihe hero of   the-to
anil   whine   career   tbe HUthor traci ■
(rom the day   the animal was kidnap
p.d   Irom   his   master's   home in the
Stnta   Clara   Valley   uutil   tbe time
when he deeerts   mankind and   juinc
tbe wolf packs ol the (rozen north.    I
will be remembered that London leaves
"Buck" at the head  ol the dog's lero
cioui   ancestors;   their   chosen leader
aod as wild as the wildest ol the pack.
It is a far cry from that glacier-
strewn valley where London gives his
reader hia last glimpse of "Buck" to
the me agerie of the Greater Norris it
Rowe Circus and yet, uucreditable as
it may seem, there is caged in tbat
menagerie a wolf-dog that well might
have been the hero of "The Call ol the
Wild." Indeed, if there ever was such
a dog as "Buck," if London based bis
story upon anything but pure imagination it would not be hazarding too
much to assume that this wild thing
o! the menagerie is the shaggy, snarling embodiment of his theme. "Kon"
tbe Norris & Kowe animal has been so
named lor the reason tbat he waB captured ou the I'pper Yukon river,
comes out of Alaska. He was found
in a wolf trap by placer miners. So
large and beutilul was he and so like
in shape and look of intelligence to
the domestic dog, that the men placed
him in a rudely constructed cage.
Robert Le Roy, whose properties the
men weie working at the time of the
capture, wsb amazed at the size and
beauty of tbe brute. Knowing that
bis old time friend, Manager H. S.
Rowe, is at all times on tbe lookout
for unusual animals, Le Roy had the
captive sent to the circus headquarters
at Santa Cruz, Calif. "Kon" is now
one of tbe most beautiful exhibits in
the en ire menagerie. Men long experienced in handling wild animals
are c uvinced that be iB the most unusual type of woll they have ever seen.
He is the fiercest and strongest ol the
band of wolves that Norris A Rowe
carry with them. Frank Williams,
"Kim's'' special keeper and a man
noted for bis ability to lame the wildest of animals, has taken a keen inter
est in hi« new chime. Talking ol the
aninml he said: "I have long been
inti-resti-d i i Lmdnn's novel, 1 am
nonvi.ic d mat a dog subjected to the
Condition!) imposed in the "Call ol the
A'lld" would retrograde to the absolute wild state. I am also convinced
that such a dog could be retamed. II
"Kon" wbb, indeed, once domesticated,
I shall bring him back to tbat state,"
Tnis unusual dog-wolf will be shown
in the menagerie of tbe Greater Norris
A Rowe Circus when it exhibits at
Revelstoke on Wednesday, June 2nd.
DEEP SINKING PROSPECTS
Work   at  Phoenix  Tunnel of
Pioneer Importance
Operations on the big tunnel which
is to run under the mountain upon
which Phoenix iB located, and waB
commenced a month ago, is now in
close to the 100-foot mark.
Speaking ol the big project, Richard
Armstrong, the resident promoter,
Btates that negotiations are now under
way to secure one of the big Swiss-
Sbandler machines, which will cut an
eight foot bore at a rate of 50 feet a
day. Tbe machines themselves cost
about $60,000.
The company is incorporated in
Illinois as the Greenwood Phoenix
Tramway and Development Company,
with a capitalization of $3,000,000.
"The work tbat the company plans
is really pioneer work, as important as
the first Burface prospecting done in
that district," says Mr. Armstrong to
the Phoenix Pioneer: "None of the
companies bave penetrated to a depth
of more than 400 or 500 feet, and if
ore is encountered in our tunnel at a
depth ol 2400 feet it will mean more
for tbe district than anything else
that has been done bere. It will mean
that eastern capital will come in and
the development of the district immediately to au extent that would otherwise wait for small companies to run
tentative shafts."
Measured in values of merchandise
imported and exported, as compared
with those of a year ago, trade conditions in practically all sections of tbe
commercial world Bhow a decline,
according to a report ol the United
States bureau ol statistics.
NOBLE FIVE TO  START
Sandon Mine, Long Closed, Will
Resume Work
Tbe Kootenaian is responsible for
the statement that a report comes
from Sandon tbat the Noble Five mine
will shortly start up again. Tbis
property, which was one of the big j
shippers in the early days, was purchased by mortgage to Lieut.-Governor
Dunsmuir about seven yeara ago and
promptly closed down. It haB been
idle ever since and miners have tried
in vain to UaBe it time and time again.
Tbe Nobis Five iB a rich property and
with systematic development will
again come to tne fore. It possesses
the first silver-lead concentrator built
in the Slocan, aud although somewhat
out of date, with a little remodelling
will do effective work.
Not Bad for Jews
An interesting bit of fire insurance
history has just come to light in the
ollicial records ot the Gore District
company of Gait, Out. A. H. Lofl't
& Co. dry goods merchants of St.
Mary's, had a loss by fire, lor which
the adjusters allowed $0250, At their
next stock taking the firm became
convinced tbey had not lost more
than $3750. Having confirmed this
by a second stock-taking, they
immediately returned the insurance
companies $2500 overpaid tbem, the
Gore share being $289. The explanatory letter was ordered inscribed in
tbe company's minutes in full and a
resolution waB passed expressing the
appreciation of tbe high-minded and
honorable course pursued by the
Messrs. l.otlt.
Helping Themselves
J. D. Anderson, surveyor of Trail,
has been instructed by the provincial
government to survey a wagon road
from tbe Kootenay river to a point
about seven miles up l'aes cieek,
north-east of Castlegar. Construction
of tbe road will be done at once by the
Doukbobor society, whu own several
thousand acres of grazing land up
PasB creek. They have already constructed the road Irom Waterloo to tbe
Kootenay river, and have built a ferry
tbere, wbere a power line oroases the
river.

Purity
^^^^^^^   Flour
does not prove entirely
satisfactory in the baking.
DON'T simply buy fluur from ilic- dollar and centside nf it. Buyhigh*
quality flour. That means I'l'RITY FLOUR. The first little extra
cost is more than made up by the extra number of loaves of bre.-t'l it mnkes-
by the superiority of the bread and i-nstrv in sweetness of flavor nnd nourishing qualities. Buying Purity Flour is a safe investment. Vou get large
returns, not ouly on account of Puiity's ability to produce more, hut because
Purity contains the greater nutriment anil the vim of a strong hard wheal
flour. Food made from Purity Flour gives the consumer health, snap and
force, which cannot lie gained from the use of the weaker soft wheat flour.

You can buy as little
as a 7 pound cotton hag

Purity may cost a little
more than some flotns
but you'll find its more
than worth the difference. To uz genuine,

WISE WORDS OF  BIRRELL
Secretary   for   Ireland. Talks
Sound Sense
Hon. Augustine Hirrell, secretary
for Ireland, at-a dinner given by tbe
Bristol chamber of commerce, in proposing "Ships, Colonies and Commerce," said he rejoiced to feel that
representatives of the colonies 'were
coming over to London to consider
the whole question cl naval defences.
"We are proud ot their assistance,
which we will not accept in any part as
payment for our own obligation", but.
that tbey will combine with ns in the
hope that we might be able to devise a
scheme ot national empire defence,
which would encourage everyone to
strengthen their forces and defences,
give confidence to all and make all
our colonial subjects of the Crown
feel  that   tbey   were contributing in
some part, not a closely calculated
part, but anything they choose to offer
ol their own free will. Colonies thus
knit, together would play a great part
in our national life, und it would, in
the course of a few years, become a
scandal for a middle aged mini liki
himself lo get up and say be hail
never viBiied auy uf these colonies.
