SCHOOLS' LEAGUE
First Game for Shield Won by
High School Boys
The lirst game in the competition
between the High and Public pcbools
for the possession of the shield, was
played off on the V.M.C.A. recreation
grounds yesterday afternuon and resulted in a win fur the High scboul
boys by a score of 1-0. Principal Pollock acted as referee.
During the first garter the High
school buys Started in 'vith a rush anil
seemed determined to make up for lhe
indignity of tlieir previous defeat.
Play became very strenuous in the
vicinity ol the Public school goal;
Coursier made a brilliant rush down
the Held ami passed to Woodland, but
the latter failed tu reach the net.
During the second i|uarter play was
abuut even; Dickie made several spec
tacular runs, aud tbe combination
play of tbe Public school boys waa
especially good. During the third
quarter play became Jvery hot around
tbe High school gual, tbe Public
school making a determined assault
upon it, and had it not been for Mc-
Kury and Lawrence, several of Calder'a
"bot shots" would have reached the
net.
During the fourth quarter the ball
was worked into tbe Public school
goal from a scrimmage and thus
ended one of the cleanest games we
have seen played for some time.
Tbere are four more games to be
played oft' before the holidays and the
next one will be played on May 14tb
next.
SHORT ROUTE TO COAST
C.N. Engineers will Survey line
Suggested by Board of Trade
Mr. G. IS. McCarter, secretary of the
board of trade committee on railway
business, who recently forwarded to
Mr, William McKenzie, president of
the Canadian Northern Railway, maps
and suggestions as to a proposed short
route to Vancouver and tbe const bas
received Irom Mr. McKenzie an
acknowledgement of tbe same with an
assurance that a survey of tbe suggested route will shortly be made.
Tbe route, as is well known, is via
Wood lake and Columbia river, Mabel
lake and Vernon, and the outlined
new road is being studied b) the company's engineers. From tbe tone ol
the communication wbicb will be
reported tu tbe next meeting of the
boaril ol trade, Mr. McCarter is sanguine that a short route to tbe coast
will soon be an accomplished fact.

section ol tbe party now operating

trains will be running within three
years. I
MEASURE FOR MEASURE
Rev. Dr. Kilpatrick Delivered
Stirring Address
Clear, earnest forceful, practical
and a lugical elucidation uf bis text
were tbj. characteristic features nf Ibe
addicos dcliveml by Kev. Dr. Kil
Patrick, of Kimx college, at Knux
Church ln«l night and thorn were no
Irills nn the sermon. Dr. Kilpatrick
is completing his part ol the Chapman-Alexander evangelistic itinerary
and was accompanied bv Mr. E, M.
Woods, who couducttd an enjoyable
Buug service and Rung delightfully
during the evening. The audience
was very good lur a week night meeting, tbe church being nearly tilled.
Chousing as bis text ibe words of
Christ. 'With what measure ye mete
it .ball 'he measured to you again,''
tbe learned doctor claiming that
Shakespeare's play "Measure for Measure," was founded ou the axiom be
declared tbe principle tn be a law of
physical nature which is cariiod
upward aud forward into the moral
and spiritual realms, " (iud never
leaves himself witlmut law," said tbo
doctor, and physical laws are but the
parallel's of tbe law; of tbe spiritual
and moral universe.   "
Tbe inevitableness of the law uf
reaction was strongly argued aud very
forcible illustrations were drawn from
poetry, the drama, literature, science
and secular history, to reinforce tbe
argument. Equally clear was the
presentation ol tbe claim tbat tho
reaction ia always In proportion tu the
actiun itself —ur aa it la called in
business—the law of returns. Ample
demonstration of tbis point was made
and doctrine ol changed and suitable
environment as a sufficient remedial
agency to curract  man's  tendency  to
do wrung was tirilicizi'd. All tin
illiistratiuns were (rum lite and struck
Inline ill their appeal.
Dr. Kilpatrick's last argument was
that, tin: law holds guod in Did supreme
matters of tbe soul and uf spiritual
life, tbe pith ul bis cnuleniinii being
that sit'viilmu is itself uf the nature uf
a reaction—a return for investment.
" In brief," aaid the spaaker "men are
saved by coming under the scope of
the principle ol measure for measure."
A full consecration to Christ
lends tu fullest leaults while a partial
committal by faith brings only compensating results.
Dr. Kilpatrick paid a high tribute
tu the character nl the men ol the
west anil sai.l that it was "absurd to
speak nf them as a godless people."
From his own cmitact wilh tbem Ins
cbiel grief was that, many failed tn
yield themselves tu Christ, and without tbis they cuuld lint he saved.
An interesting evangelistic after
service clused tbe meeting,
INDUSTRIAL
ACCESSION

Door Factory to Run in 30
Days — Building Rushed to

40 x 30 leet iu dimensions constructed
of heavy frame throughout. Tbe machinery wbicli has already beeu
ordered iB all ol the very latest type
for the purposes designed aud consists
ol a full complement necessary to the
equij ment of a factory for the turning out of sash, doors, mouldings,
trimmings and builders' finished supplies ol all kinds. Two planing machines, a chain morticer, a Bticker,
tennantiug machine shaper sand
papering machine, band and scroll
saws witb the full equipment of rip
and crosscut bu ws, will constitute the
mechanical furnishing uf the simp and
it is the intention ol the proprietor tu
place on the market fur building
purposes all that carpeutcrs and contractors may require in the way of
finished material. It is expected that
the building will be comp.eteand the
machinery installed within .10 days
and tbat tbe bum of tl e new mill will
be added to the growl ol the catalogued
industries ol tbe city within that time.
Power will be supplied hy a 26 li p
electric motor wbicb will provide
ample energy for all the machinery
that will necessarily be operated at
one time.
The enterprise is being ventured by
Mr. fi. .1. Watson, ' niniuinu timber
in jiectur who recently removed to
the city Irum Burke's Falls, Out. Mr.
Watson has not only unhtmnded iaith
iu the luturc of Kevelstoke as uttering
an upening lur such an industry, hut
he has received every encouragement
from local builders as to the prospects
ot the tiew business.
The management of the factory will
he placed in lhe hands of Mr. Cordon
Watson, a sou of the proprietor, and
Mr. I) West, both of whom are -killed
mechanics antl up to tbo latest
wrinkles in tbe management of mill
machinery for the manipulation ot
wood It is expected tbat from 12 to
15 bands will be employed from the
start and tbe outlook for business
warrants tbe assumption tbat the
factory will bo kept busy all the year
round.
The mill is conveniently lucatetl tu
the railway tracks where the unloading ol lumber and reloading of merchandise can be quickly accomplished,
Mr. D. McCarthy, the well-known
contractor, with a gang of efficient
workmen is rushing thu building to
completion. Tbo machinery is from
tbe famous buuse ul McGregor &
(luurlay, ul Call, Ont,
" Florinda."

auspices ol the Ladies Auxiliary uf
Knux Church is usually une uf thu
must pleasing uf I. cal entertainments,
and this year it promises to bo more

will lie the produotiou by the children
uf that charming operetta in three
acts entitled "Florinda," or "Tho Rose
and Pearl " This is a copyrighted
work, arranged by R. E, Phillips, with
tbe music hy Kduardu Marzo, and is
one uf the finest operettas ever written.
Tlie Bong story tells how "Florinda"

CASTIGATION  OF   HOODLUMS
Police Will Break Up Gang of
Young Night Hawks
Fur sume weeks past, a number ol
young women and girls have been
practising for it Mayday festival, using
the schuul room of Knux church fur a
practice ruuni. Lately a number uf
youtliB, Inr too overgrown to be excusable for their conduct havo been
annoying these girls at and alter their
practice. Su troublesome did tbey
become that complaints had Anally
to be ludged with the polioo and this
week on prnelice evening an ullicer
waa on the lookout for the culprits
Being made aware ul the eagle eye nl
the ullicer the lads went further down
the street, hid tliemselves and awaited
the homegoing uf tho girls. Sonic of
these were badly frightened, a», when
opposite tuo biding place of the hoodlums the latter sprang out ami used
the nnis ingenious methods to strike
terror to the hearts of tbe maidens,
One nl the girls Fainted, another was
stricken with hysterics and a thud
had to he curried home while all the
number were more or less in a Htnte ol
nervous prostration.
While youthful pranks are always
mure or less a matter of public sympathy there is a general feeling that
this affair is heing carried too far and
the police are determined tu put a
Stop to even the semblance of mischief in the future. The offending
youths, especially the ringleaders uf
the gang, are well known aud if
caught at any future performance of
their mischievous pranks a goud
borse-whipping is probable among the
forms of retribution which will await
the misdemeanants. Grown penple
are not permitted to play the hold-up
game in Kevelstoke and there IB no
disposition un the part of ollicials or
cilizens to see a school of youths
qualifying for a Rubin lluud cutei'ie
iu the city.

haa not been reluctant in the past
to investigate the treasures of the
Canadian territory the contiguity
f such a vast body ol potential

come as a revelation to many likely

It innv be a weariness lo the

CHINESE   REPATRIATION
A new solution—or partial solution—of the Chinese immigration
problem as it affects tbe Canadian
labor market seems to be looming
up ns a result of a prolonged visit
by a Chinese representative of the
government of KwangSu province
to tbis country. The gentleman
is Mr. I.u.--/ Ki, who passed through
Vancouver ou his way to China on
the last outgoing Empress Mr. Lo
declares the province of Kwang Su
to be rich in minerals nud he has
spent ten months in America interesting American capital in the

The budget speech delivered on
Wednesday by Hon. Mr. Fielding
shows nu estimated surplus of
$1,500,000 although the estimated
income i- more than $11,000,000
less than Ilinl of last year. The
surplus 1- calculated from the consolidated revenue account. Neither
the bukget speech nor Mr. Foster's
criticism of it wns worthy the occa-
-iuii nnd both make rather tame
reading. The opposition seem more
diligent at unearthing BCandal nnd
the government at burking inquiry
than in attending to the study of
the more serious at'lairi- ot the
country.

Means to You
TT means that the flour contained in haps and barrels
so tradc-innrkcd is decidedly
whiter, a great deal stronger
and nunc nutritious than
other flours.
it means tn.it ihe flour has been
properly aged lo mature its
full strength.
It means
"More bread
and better Bread"
and better pastry, too.
It means elimination of uncertainty—"your money back"
if Purity fails to give entire
satisfaction.
Costs more than the other kind,
but worth the difference.

CONDEMNS U.M.W. UNION
Board of Conciliation Recites
Strong Grounds of Objection.
Ottawa, April 21.—Strongly cun-
demnatory ol the influence ot American labor unionism in Oanada is the
report of the board ol conciliation
appointed under the Lemieux Aet tu
enquire into a dispute between the
I'oininioii Ooal Company ul Nova
Scotia and lhe miners.
Tho report of the board slates that
the most important questiou for consideration was that uf recognition nl
the I'.M.W. ol America by the Dominion Coal Company, a question purely
a matter ol pulicy. The II.M.VV
claimed the right tn approach the
management by conuiiittcos, as is
done by the P.W.A., but the company
thus found itscll face to faro with two
rival organizations antl Inun,I it impracticable to deal wiili separate committees whose contentions might be
at variance.    Tbe repurt continues.
"The principal reason, however, why
the company refused to recognize the
I'.M.W. is that they are practically u
foreign organization, having danger
oils anil menacing powers under the
constitution. It is true that the U.
M.W. is international in membership,
but the principal executive ollicers
and the great bulk of the members
reside in the United States. The company pointed out tbat this has a very
BeriouB ell'ect on the coal trade ol
Nova Scotia, inasmuch as American
operators are making serious inroads
into Canadian markets.
But ihe most objectionable clause
of tbe cunstitution (of tbe U.M.W.A.)
is as follows:
' The international utlicials shall at
any time they deem it to the beet, interests of mine workers in a district
that is idle for just and sufficient reasons order a suspension of work in
any other district or districts that
would not in any way impede the
settlement ol the district affected,
provided that such action would conserve to the best interests of the CM.
W. of America.
"This rules makes its quite possible
for the executiie of the United Mine
Workers, whose head ollice is in Indianapolis, Indiana, to proclaim a
strike in Nova Scotia if they considered   it   to   be in the inteiesta of the
U.M.W.   as a whole Tbe
board considers thai the coal company
is amply justified in refusing to recognize an organization that cuuld exercise such a dangerous and continually
menacing power The men
must Bee tbat their interests are bound
up witb those of the Coal Company
and while tbey naturally expect to
share in the prosperity ol the company,
anything that tends to hamper materially the operations of the company
must iu the end prejudicially affect
themselves."
A BOY FIEND

of the race each couple kept up a fast
yet steady gait, a few lulling out in
