Mr. Mulock In this connection pointed out that the original coit was estimated at i'l.7(io,(iou, hut it had since been found tbat tbe cost would exceed that sum. In this connection he pointed out that the government of New South Wales had made an arrangment with the Eastern Extension Telegraph and Cable Company. This would have some effect on the enterprise before the house,and it was proper that the house should know this before taking action. Be also announced that instead of the various governments procuring money for their part of the cost of the cable themselves, the Imperial government should make an entire loan and then the other parties to the agreement could provide a guarantee for their share of the money so loaned.

Mr. Eberts introduced a bill clearly defining tbe right of the province to royalties on timber and wood cut ou land given in subsidy to railways and which had been disputed by tbe Nakusp & Slocan Railroad. During the afternoon Prentice submitted a report of Dr.Clarke, of Ontario, who was appointed commissioner to inquire Into the workings of the New Westminster insane asylum, and the unsatisfactory state of the asylum. He ascribes tbe following causes in brief: Excessive salaries to subordinates and nurses, too large a staff, unnecessary officials, such as shoemaker and farm foreman, lack of economy in supplies, lack of organization in store's system, absence of system in business department, defeotlve heating arrangements and consequent big fuel bills, undesirable and unattractive surroundings for patients, allowing refractory patients to occupy one bed room, poor bedding and lack of exercise for the patients. Mr. Clarke recommends proper and elaborate schemes of employment, biush making, carpenter work, gardening, purchase of farm lands for establishing a from colony, and more drill and exercise. Captain McKenzie, who has chnrge of the arrangements for the Great Northern car ferry from Victoria to Liverpool, opposite New Westminster, says he expects plans In a few days from Frank Kirby, designer and draughtsman for the Detroit-Dry Dock and Shipbuilding Company, which have designed some of the famous Russian ferries.

THE DOG TAX��� Poundkeeper "Bill" Herring is still awaiting the arrival of the dog tags which he ordered In the east on being notified of the appoint ment to the post in the municipal service. He proposes to have the section of the bylaw under which he works printed on posta 1 cards, one of these to be forwarded to every Jog owner in tbe city. If tbe gentle hint thus conveyed as to the payment of taxes is not acted on "Bill" will go on the warpath. AT ROBSON YARD��� A switching engine and crew is now boated permanently at tho Robson yard, with the result that freight business is materially expedited. Formerly the crew of a train running to Robson had to switch their trsin before returning, but as the regular yard outfit now makes up all trains, the Nelson crew can pick up a train awaiting them on their arrival and return without the vexatious delays which have hampered their movements up to the present time. REGISTRY OFFICE��� Land Relgstrar Macleod now has the routine of the registry office moving smoothly and a large number of deeds arc coming in for registration. The main office Ib located at the north side of the building and takes up the entire width of the structure. The tegistrar's private office is located at the southwest corner and is comfortably furnished. The heavy echo in the building due to the concrete Doors, has been overcome by the use of rubber matting. ANNUAL WORK��� The engineer's department of the local C. P. R. staff will have a couple of woik trains running out of Nelson within the next week or two at tha outside. It is proposed to do considerable work in connection with the improvements to the line between Nelson and Robson, including two large rock cuts, considerable ditching and ballasting and the replacing of a large number of ties with new material. The tenders for the supply of the latter are already filed, and something will be known shortly about the disposition of the balance of tbe work. IT WORKS' WELL��� The latest form in which nectar is served by the white-coated fraternity tht presides over Nelson's bars is the "Carrie Nation cocktail." The draught is compounded on the regulation cocktail lines, with the addition of a dBsh of sherry to give a touch of dryness and acidity calculated to remind the consumer of the personal appearance of tl;e Kansas female cyclone,and if taken with immoderation the new cocktail is guaranteed to elevate its devotees to the identical pitch of enthusiasm which animates Mrs. Nation when Bhe start out on a joint-smashing excursion, J NO MORE ARCS- No more arc lights are to be used in lighting the city streets until the facilities for furnishing power to operate them are provided. The dam on Cottonwood creek is full, and it looks as though there would not be another shortage of water this season, hut as the arc and incandescent lamps are operated from the same machine, and the power is not sufficient to keep both going satisfactorily, it has been decided to serve the iuterests of citizens first and cut out the big lights. Until further arrangements can be made the clusters of incandescent lamps are answering the purpose of street lights fairly well. THE ROARIN' GAME. Cold Suap Revive* Interest���Several Games at the Rink. The local curlers had quite made up their minds when the recent thaw set in that the pastime was over for this winter at least but the cold snap beginning on Monday has revived interest and several excellent games have been played in the last day or two. The ice is hard but the surface is not in as good condition as might be desired. However, the enthusiasts bave gone in for the pastime with unabated interest and appended will be found the results of the games played: J. Dover, narry Wright, Dr. Armstronng, D. J. Dewar, C.

Both Countries Should Live In Peace. Friendship and Unity. Berlin, March 5.-The chancellor, Von Buelow, in a speech today, laid emphasis on the noble impulse aclunt ing the Emperor in the matter of the relations between Great Britain and Germany, "I observed two months ago," said the chancellor, "and I repeat today, that nothing is changed In our relations with Great Britain since I declared in the icichstag that we were ready and willing to live in peace, friendship and unity with Great Britain on tho basis of mutual consideration and absolute equality. If, therefore, the Emperor, by his preaenc and demeanor in England, opened the way for a continuance of such normal GOOD RELATIONS It is advantageous to the two countries. No doubt there are many sore points between the two countries, but all the same they are numerous and necessary points of contact between them. Good, neighborly relations are required in both countries, and there is no political reason why we should not cultivate relations with Great Britain in as careful a way as the other powers do. The accession of the new sovereign will not change the relations of Germany and Great Britain.. Perhaps there have been people who hoped that the change would exercise an unfavorable, influence, but these expectations have not been realized, whioh Is also advantageous to the two powers and to the general peace. "Herr Schlader said the Emperor's visit violated our neutrality towards the South African war, and I have also seen pictures drswn of tbe Emperor's visit to England and the NON-RECEPTION OF KSUGER in Berlin. The parallels arc not correct. The avowed object of Presiden Eruger's projected journey to Berlin was to compel us in an unusual manner to interfere in the South African complications, whereas His Majesty's visit to England had nothing to do with the South African war. I deny In the most emphatic manner that the Emperor acted in any way contrary to tbe interests of the country in adopting and responding to attentions. "Regarding the decorating of Lord Roberts with the Order of the Black Eagle, that was solely a matter for the King of Prussia to decide. It is a qustion of the constitutional, personal prerogative of the crown. Lord Roberta is not a political personage,therefore the distinction conferred is of no political importance. REGARDING PRUSSIA. I am fully convinced that one ot tho foremost endeavors of our policy Is to cultivate the most friendly und most neighborly relations. 1 am firmly convinced that German and Russian interests lie Bide by side in most matters, and there is no point where, with mutual good will prevailing, our lute'ests need clash. There is no antagonism separating the two empires which cannot be bridged, but here alBo we require complete equality. Germany Is no more dependent on England than they are dependent upon us." SOLI) ONCE AGAIN A special despatch to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, dated Spokane, March 2nd, says: "Definite announcement was made here today of the closing of the deal for the sale of tho Crow's Nest Coal Company's mines and business to American smelter interests. The amount of stock secured was the controlling interest, and the amount that is understood to havo been paid the Canadian owners of the great coal fields was 8>iu per share. This is the culmination of a big deal by which James J. Hill, of the Great Northern railway, and associated with him two other prominent capitalists, J. Picrpont Morgan, and .1. I). Rockefeller, havo become the owners of the highest grade coal mines in Western Canada," Nslson Daily Miner, Wednesday, March 6, igc\. r'.'v Eacagqa ���,/ffSHHXSSZ The Nelson Miner "33 Published Kvery Morniinc Except Monday ���BY TUB��� NELSON PUBLISHING CO.

For the information of the gentle man who are so dogmatic in their assertions that no element of danger to Canadian interests exists in the possibility of a charter being granted Jim Hill and his associates to build a line of railway to connect the Gieat Northern with the Crow'a Nest coal fields, we ask them to peruse the following American view of the situation, contained in a special despatch from Spokane to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer: "It will be of great advantage to the American smelters, who will be able to use the coke produced. The move is viewed with much apprehension by tbe British Columbia smelter interests, the Crow's Nest field being their only source of coke supply, so that the American trust is to be congratulated on a very tactful move, as the British Columbia smelters are deprived of n very great essential In the dcvelnpmt lit of their industry. Application has already been made to the Dominion parliament for a charter for a line of railway from the conl mines iu Crow's Nest pass tc connect with the Great Northern system, so that transportation to American smelters will thus be absolutely controlled. The coke and other products from the mines is of a very high grade, and in great demand by the American smelters. The coke will be distributed through Montana and as far south as Omaha, and the advantage to American mining interests will be very great. Several weeks ago, when the permanent shipment of coke to the American side was first suggested, the Canadian Pacific railway people put up a very strong fight, iu an endeavor to head off tbe Great Northern in any arrangement they might attempt, although the deal, as consummated,has been under negotiation anrt practically settled tor some time. The opposition of the Canadian Pacific riilway was based on the shortage of coke that would result to the Kootenay smelters, in which the Canadian Pacific railway was interested, if large shipments continued to be made to the American side of the line. But the opposition of the Canadian Pacific railway was futile and the announcement of the deal is made on the best authority." Here it is stated that the American trust is to be congratulated on a very tactful move, as tbe British Columbia smelters are "deprived of a very great essential in the development of their industry." Suppressing any inclination'which we may feel to go into hysterics at such an an noiiiicciiient, wo respectfully submit that the boards of trade of Southern British Columbia might very well bave displayed more caution before placing themselves on record as sup potting an application for a charter for a railway which will have the effect of "depriving" the British Columbia smelters of a very great essential in tho development of their industry. ical subjects, of whioh u list is given in the "Biography of the Royal Society of Canada." He received the degree of LLD. from Queen's University, 1800, aud from McGill University, 1801. In the same year he was awarded the Bigsby gold medal by the London Geographical Society for his services to the science of geology, and he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society. In 1863 he was elected president of the Royal Society of Canada. In 1804 he was elected a corresponding member of tbe Zoological Society of London; in 1*03 a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science; in 1800 he was appointed by the council of tbe British Association president of the geological section for the Toronto meeting of the associatiou; and in 1807 he w awarded the yearly gold medal of the Royal Geographical Society for his work as a whole. He was commissioner for Canada at the Paris Exhibition, 1900. A GREAT LOSS. Canada has suffered a great loss by the death of Dr.G. M.Dawson,director of the geological survey. He was well known by reputation in the west. His work on the geological survey was done chiefly in British Columbia and the Northwest Territories, and in the discharge of his official duties he explored a large section of the western country, including a boat journey of 1,300 miles, with one portage of 30 miles, from the basin of the Laird river to that of the Yukon. One of tbe most important of his public services was in connection with the Behring Sea arbitration. As one of the British commissioners, he spent the Bummer of 1802 in the Behring Sea region, for the purpose of inquiring into the conditions and facts of seal life. The report of the commissioners constituted the case of Her Majesty's government on this branch of the subject, nnd was of great service. For his services on this occasion he received the thanks of the Guvcrnor- General-ln-Council, and the C. M. G. from Her Majesty. In addition1'to his official reports, he was the author of It is a very happy circumstance that the practice exists in Nelson whereby publicity is given through the columns of the newspapers to the constant increase In the population which is not the result of immigration. It is doubtful if there is another city ou the continent of America where the same publicity is given to announcements of such new arrivals��� but that tloes not deter ns from saying that Nelson's system of dealing with the matter is a very excellent one. over the matter when it Is known that Japa arriving at coast ports offer to do all sorts of work for to per month ! Tlie complaint of the people of tbe Boundary district that there are no sittings of the supreme court in that section is a very just one, and we hope that the authorities may take early steps to have the grievance remedied. William McKinley has again been officially declared president of the United States fur the next four years. The inaugural ceremonies were very brilliant und entirely in keeping with the reputation of "the greatest nation on eaith."

He points out that the matter of surface water in this connection requires looking into and proposes to insist upon the dairies making connection with the city water mains inside of thirty days. The medical men of Nelson have, very properly, we think, entered a protest against the movement which bas started in Victoria to secure sweeping amendments to the Medical Act. Should tbe suggestions which have been put forward be adopted, there is extreme likelihood of the province being rapidly filled up with quacks; and this is eminently undesirable. The corporation of the City of Nelson will shortly forward a petition to the legislature asking that the city schools be turned over on the same basis as the system by which Vancouver and Victoria control their educational Institutions. There will be hardly two opin'ons about the expediency of such a move, and we hope that the prayei of the petitioners may be granted. The Quebec government is reported to have declared that the present allowance of the Dominion government to the provinces is entirely insufficient and that Quebec intends seeing it is raised. Well done, Qucbeul And while you are about it, pleuBe do not forget that there is a small place out west called British Columbia which has some claims for recognition in the same respect. Signs are not wanting that the lakes of Kootenay and Siocan districts will shortly become famous as resorts for tourists; and in this connection it is gratifying to be told that with the inauguration of the Imperial Limited service this season due prominence will be given by the 0. P. R. in their advertising matter to the attractiveness and advantages of these unsurpassable pleasure places. Tbe annual convention of the Canadian 'Mining Engineers and Mine Managers,- to be held under tbe auspices of the Canadian Mining Institute at Montreal shortly, will unquestionably prove of very great importance. British Columbia will be well to the fore, as no less than seven papers are to be read by men from this province. "Tlie Greenwood convention acted very properly In passing a resolution inviting His Royal Highnesathe Duke of York to visit British Columbia on his colonial tour. Similar action ought to be taken by every city of importance in the province, so that the royal programme may be amend* ed, if possible, in accordance with the wishes of the people of the West. It would be a simple act ot kindness if, regardless of the rules and regulations, arrangements were made tor the admission to tbe Home at: Kamloops of the old man, Cranley, who finds himself ill and in very reduced circumstances. Sir Wilfrid Laurier has decided not to go to Australia to attend the Commonwealth ceremonies, but Hon. Mr. Mulock will go in his. stead.. It la very proper that Canada should be officially represented by some one. The list of Nelson's industries has been added to by the establishing of another cigar factory. The Miner wishes the promoters of the enterprise every success in their new venture. The war office is getting a severe shaking up these days. The general impression seems to be tbat it needed it. CURRENT COMMENT Is there to be a reconstruction of the cabinet? Some of the Victoria correspondents who have been exercising their wits, declare that Vancouver is to be represented directly in tbe ministry. But Vancouver returned two Independents and two Opposition members. Can it be that Mr. Dunsmuir is tired of office and would willingly give up to the opposition'.'��� Vancouver World, There is confidence in the Kootenay that construction of the new line to the coast will be commenced this year, Because some surveyors who have taken the field in conuecton with the project travelled west on passes i��sued by the Groat Northern, it is further announced that Jim Hill will back Mackenzie & Mann in its construction. The certainty of an opportunity to do this would be a liberal return for the passes.��� Columbian. The halls of our legislatures are haunted by railway- promoters. Day. and night tbe minds of our statesmen must be wrestling with the mighty problem of sifting the legitimate enterprises from the speculative men. They are paying the penalty which attaches to the bonus system of en couriigiug the construction��� of rail ways. Not that the system Is' wrong under the peculiar conditions existing in Canada, but that a discrimination is required in selection which is generally lacking in those who are called upon to deal with the matter.���Victoria Times. Sir Henri Joly's speech at the opening of the legislature was thoroughly neat aud businesslike. It is a good sign of the times that public men are at last beginning to abandon the old- fashioned, prolix and verbose misconceptions of oratory which have tried the nerves of so many generations of listeners. Very few* men are orators, but every man can talk common sense if he tries, and if he puts himself out of mind and is thoroughly in earnest over his subject. The average audience is very quick to distinguish .the sincerity or otherwise uf a speaker��� and draws its own conclusions.���-The Outlook, Victoria. GAMBLE & O'REILLY Bakkr Street. The subject of Japanese immigration has been discussed by the Doinin- , . ion government and a deputation a large number of notes and papers on from the Trades and Labor Congress. W. W. B. Mclnnes, M. P. P , has the unhappy faculty of always aiming at the impossible. His latest move Is to introduce a bill to deprive Chinese and Japs of employment after December 1st next. No law can be framed prohibiting the employment of Orientals by private parties. The only solution of tbe Chinese and Jap problem is to keep them out of the province.

The shippers who agitated for Improvements at the wharf some time ago have had nothing to say regarding the matter for the past year, from which the inference might be drawn that the necessity for alterations on a large scale is not as pressing us was formerly the case. In any event the committee is likely to make some recommendation to tho council dealing with the matter of changes nt the wharf. NIGHT WAS HEB TEBRDB.

Doctors were scarce, and they seldom beard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart failure, etc. They used August Flowe- to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undigested food, regulate the action of the system, and thnt is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches.

Stephens, chief engineer of the C. P. R. fleet, has received from a friend in Scotland a copy of a reprint of the Weekly Advertiser, published in Dundee in mill, just a century ago. The edition Is most interesting. NOW IN TORONTO��� Rev. Robort Frew, pastor of St. Paul's I'resbytnrian church, is now In Toronto. A couple of weeks ago Mr. Frew arrived in Winnipeg from Ran loops and after a visit theie left for Onturio. His health is much improved as a result of his rest from pastoral duties. THE (IUN CLUB��� There is a possibility that the Nelson Gun Club may not be reorganized this year. A number of the old members have lost interest In the club, and do not propose to go in for the pastime this summer. It is hoped that the remaining members will malic u strong effort to keep the organization alive. THE CENTRl'Y FL'ND- Rev. Dr. Wright, acting pastor of St. Paul's church, haB been empowered by the synod of Kootenay to look after the interests of the century mill ion dollar fund in this district. He expects to devote what time can be spared from his duties here in assisting the century fund cause, which is regarded as one of the most important enterprises ever undertaken by the denomination. THE MINING RECORDS- Several records were filed at the government office yesterday. Notice of a sheriff's sale of the interests of G. II. Keefer in the Little Joe, Belle Fraction, New King and Yellow Hoy claims was entered. The property has been seized to satisfy a judgment in tbe action of Kirkpatrick & Wilson vs. Keefer and is to be sold on the 13th, W. H.

A FINE CRAFT- Tlie new C. P. R. tug Valhalla has now been in commission for a week and has proved herself a tine craft, splendidly adapted to the purpose for which she wus constructed. The engines are in excellent order, all the parts having ail justed themselves to the work nicely, it. Mowat, formerly of the Ymir, is in charge of the engine room, and has been succeeded on the Ymir by Engineer Kay, who is just from tbe coast. QUIET IN LONDON��� J. Fred Ritchie, a well known Itossland mining man, was in the city yesterday ou business. Mr. Ritchie states that in a letter to him, Jean Richard, the Belgian engineer Jwho visited Nelson recently in the interests of a prominent London syndicate, remarked that it was next to impossible to secure a company to take up a mining proposition in London at the present time. He was about to leave for the Gold Coast to look into the reported strikes there.

GOOD CUSTOMER- Three Sear Old Boy. The right kind of food will work wonders in the way of changing a sick person to a healthy one, and by the same rule keep a person in good health. Arthur W. Fanning, 14 Throop St., Chicago, 111., had such a remarkable experience himself with Grape-Nuts Food, tbat he recommended it to a friend for his child, for whom the parents were unable to find food tbat would agree. It was supposed the child's stomach had been ruined by the use of medicines. When he was put on Grape-Nuts he began to improve and Mr. Fanning says, "I will wager that, although he is but three years old now, he Is the best single handed customer the Post um Cereal Co. have today. He has become big and strong, and is in perfect condition. 1 have received thanks many times from his mother for bringing Grape-Nuts F'ood to their attention. The whole family are using the food now. "My own experience was remarkable. I had, for years, a stomach trouble, I got so that I could not eat anything for breakfast except an orange; all solid food and meat being out of the question. "When I was induced to take on Grape-Nuts I did so with fear and trembling, but found out,to my pleasure and surprise, and great benefit to ray health, that I had a food I could hold on my stomach, and could do a ���good forenoon's work. "I have not bad a headache since using Grape-Nuts Food, and in one yeai 1 have gained Hi pounds. I am so much of an advocate of tlie food that people Hiispcct me of being Interested in the Co. I have won over a number of friends who are now using it, and speak in the highest terms of It." Grape-Nuts Food wins its own way without any trouble. It can be borne by tbe weakest stomach, and contains, tbe strongest food elements known. All first-class grocers sell Grape- Nuts Food made at the pure food factories of the Postum Cereal Co,, Lim Jted, Battle Creek, Mich, TO CURE THE GRIP IN TWO DAYS Laxative Bromo-Qiiinino remove* the cause. REDUCTION AT ONCE��� A communication has been received from the Mainland Fire Insurance Underwriters' Association in which it is stated in response to a query that the proposed reduction in rates for Nelson if improved fire protection methods are adopted along the line laid down in the communication forwarded recently by the secretary, would go into effect at once. This means that citizens would not have to await the expiration of existing policies before reaping the benefit of the reduced rates, and will probably strengthen the hands of the city coun cil in dealing with the matter of reorganizing the fire brigade. WERE JUSTIFIED��� The members of the volunteer fire department who recently resigned and took with them certain artioles which the remaining members insist belong to the organization as a whole and not to any individuals, state that eleven of the sixteen members of the brigade voted to dispose of the articles in a certain manner and that this justified their action. As to the 850 balance claimed to be in the treasury, it is asserted that when the department was reorganized the treasury- did not contain a cent, the available funds having been disposed of prior to the resignation of the dissenting mein hers. TALKED OF NELSON��� The Spokesman-Review in its issue of yesterday prints a lengthy interview with Mr. II. W. R. Moore, which it introduces thus: "H. W. R. Moore, until recently night editor of the Nelson, B.C.. Miner, passed through Spokane yesterday on his way to Sitka, Alaska, where he will take a position with an English mining company, which has extensive interests on Bar- anoff island. Speaking of mining conditions around Nelson, Mr. Moore said: 'The prospects for a successful mining season In the Nelson district are very bright. The various properties in the vlcilnity of tbe town are going steadily ahead, and several that have been closed down will be opened up again In the spring.' " BUYING A TEAM��� Alderman John Irving, chairman of the fire,water and light committee, started out yesterday in quest of a new team for the fire hall, as authorized by the cuoncil.- In company with Chief Lillie, of tbe fire brigade, he examined a local team which had been recommended to tho authorities, but tbe animals were not up to the standard, and were rejected. As this is the only likely pair of animals in the city, the committee will probably have to go to Spokane foi the horses. A pair of sound animals 1,400 to i.r,iui pounds each, and otheiwise suited to tho purpose, is desired. Chief Lillie weighed the combination hose and chemical wagon yesterday and discovered that the outfit weighed 4,490 pounds with Driver Jim Boyd on the seat. An ordinary coal wagon will run about 1,50(1 pounds, so it will be recti that the Nelson fire team has no ti illnj contract.
