WILSON ON CITY LIGHTING NATIONALS COMING OUT Talks of Proposed Purchase of Poles By City. He Strongly Advocates the Installation of a Temporary Lighting Plsnt For City���Rupert's Pioneer Firm Would Have Kept Up Supply. "It is now a matter of arrangement with the city council on the question of the purcha e of the poles and wiring etc." said G. I. Wilson yesterday evening after the meeting with the city council. "No, I am not prepared to say how much we will accept for the plant, but I think that after we have looked it over in company with the mayor and city engineer we can strike a sufficiently satisfactory bargain with the city. "On second thoughts we have decided not to leave with the Princess Beatrice tomorrow, but to wait until the matter is settled one way or another before leaving Prince Rupert We shall leave probably on Sunday." From the trend of Mr. Wilson's further remarks it would appear that the idea of the B. C. Tie and Lumber Co's supplying the light for the city of Prince Rupert was one which figured high in the company's programme previous to the fire though at first the plant was run at a loss and even now one would fancy that the firms leading men would readily lend their experienced aid towards the solution of the city's lighting problem. "There is apparently no longer an opening for us or we might even think of offering to instal a workable temporary lighting plant for the city" said Mr. Wilson "There can be no doubt that the wisest plan Princ* Rupert can follow in regard to the lighting question is to depend on an efficient temporary electric lighting plant for the next two years or so, until the time is ripe and the financial position of the city ready for the installation of a permanent scheme adequate for' needs present and needs to come for electrical energy in the rising community." SETTLERS ARE IN BAD PLIGHT FORT GEORGE SUPPLIES CUT OFF BY LOW WATER Government May be Called upon to Assist Hardships Owing to Failure of Steamers to Navigate Fraser Lake and no Staple* on Hand Victoria, Sept. 6.���A serious situation in the Nechaco country is reported in advices just at hand from Fort George, which contains news that owing to the failure of steamers to navigate Fraser Lake, many of the settlers are already sorely in need of staple supplies, while the situation in regard to the winter is even more alarming. The shortage of stores in the Nechaco Valley is accentuated by the fact that a large quantity of supplies was accidentally burned not long ago while awaiting transportation. It is understood that special effortB will be put forth by the business interest* Of Fort George to cope with the present situation, although it is not improbable that the government may also be asked to assist. The positive assurance of the completion of the Blackwater road before the advent, of winter, to furnish a dependable link of communication with the outside world, would greatly relieve the anxieties of interested settlers.

Taylor some time ago gave orders should be rushed forward with the least possible delay, jPeulty in obtaining sufficient labor wing the reason for its non-completion ere this.

The committee had ascertained from the city engineer that the cost of this work would come to fully $80,000, and did not recommend that the city's credit should be pledge to this extent for this scheme as the area was so small. The plan for having the plank roadway stopped at a point 140 feet south of Dunsmuir street it was reported would cost $3,870, and the streets committee suggested that if the petitioners desired it steps would be taken to carry out this modified improvement. If there is anything good to eat in town the Ideal Provision House will certainly have it. 105-108. OLD ELECTRIC PLANT DID HILDITCH HINT MORE COTTAGES Part of the City Council j ,n Capt.

ROAD FOR IDITAROD Will Run From Valdez to the New Tanana Gold Fields An Outstanding Problem jThere can be no doubt that the question of international peace is one of the most important problems of the day. Behind it stands the happiness of the world, its economic, intellectual and spiritual development. The chancellors of all the great nations are bewildered by thc claims for money to be spent on armaments. Social reformers are in despair for want of funds. The problem is whether it is not possible for sane men to find a way out. Aeroplanes and War "I thought when I read the report of Grahame White circling over the Dreadnought, with King George on board, that the omen was one which it behooved our naval constructors to mark and learn," writes H. W. Massingham in the Morning Leader. "We can build ] an aeroplane or a submarine for a few hundred pounds. Are these machines to equalize the chances of the great and little navies of the hour? If so, the mysterious forces that arise as we advance to new conquests of nature may yet put down the mighty from their seat, and it may be well for them to be wise in time."

Saturday, Sept. 10 FEATURING LOCAL FOODS Commenting on the Optim'st's article on the advisability of local caterers featuring fish the Toronto Star says: "Similar complaints have been made by travelers in the Maritime Provinces. They go there with visions of lobsters and fresh cod, and they find that the hotel bills of fare are much the same as in Toronto or Winnipeg. The food may be excellent; the fish may be available for those who seek them diligently, but no attempt is made to 'feature' these distinctively maritime products. A traveler on Lake Temis- caming had an odd experience. He knew that the waters were swarming with fish, and that on the shores millions of bushels of blueberries were going to waste. But never a fish nor a blueberry appeared on that boat. Bacon and eggs composed the bill of fare for breakfast, dinner and supper. It could not have been the meanness or even thrift that caused this monotony, for chickens and porkers in that vicinity must have been far more expensive than blueberries and fish. Perhaps the reason is that people do not value highly what is easy to obtain. They are tired of the native product and they forget that what is an old story for them would be a pleasing novelty for the stranger. The "featuring" of local products would be a good stroke of business not only for the caterer, but for the neighborhood." ARE YOU IN NEED OF HELP? Do you want to buy, or sell, or hire, or loan?

Smithers, chairman of the board of directors of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company, has been making similar statements outside to what he made here as to the scarcity of labor, and the consequent retarding of construction work on the transcont nental railway. He did so at Victoria, but the Victoria Times, in an editorial upon the subject that contains a gleam of hope, says: "The demand for labor in all sections of the Dominion is so great at present that some time may be required to overtake it. But if the volume of immigration continues to increase as it has done of late���and there is every indication that it will���the Grand Trunk Company will not long be hampered in its operations because of a shortage of labor." We can only trust that th!s conclusion of the able writer may be verified, yet for the present there are evidences needed to support this optimistic view.

The city council met at 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon the meeting being called for the purpose of receiving the representatives of the B. C. Tie and Lumber Co. G. I. Wilson, Robert Kelly, and James Ironsides in conference with the council on the subject of the disposal to the city of the salvage from the fire, principally the electric light poles. G. I. Wilson on the invitation of the mayor said that had to come to state the position of the B. C. Tie and Lumber Co in this matter with a view to coming to a satisfactory arrangement with the city council. "In the early days of Prince Rupert," he said " we had an agreement with the G. T. P. to light the city, and we went to considerable trouble to put in the light, and ran at a loss for a long time. We were most unfortunate in having our business burnt out. We had applied to the government for a charter and after the fire the government was approached on the matter and stated that the city would take over the salvage. The plant installed cost us upwards of $16,000. After the fire we agreed after some discussion with Mr. Clark and Mr. Manson to figure the value of the pole line etc at $7,895." F. C. Sewell ran over the figures showing how this sum had been arrived at for the pole line and equipment at ubout 75 cents on the dollar of cost. "What do you gentlemen think we should pay for the pole line, or what proposition do you propose to make?" establish the whole line." Aid. Pattullo.���"How much do you think we ought to pay? The amount stated?" G. I. Wilson.���"Well yes, I think that would be a fair figure for you." The Mayor.���"On looking over the plant, I notice that the stuff seems to be in pretty poor shape, but according to company , It was a business matter anyway at present, and he would second Aid. Pattullo's motion, which was carried. G. I. Wilson then explained that he and the other gentlemen intended to leave by the Princess Beatrice tomorrow, but that Mr. David H. Hays who was present at the meeting could deal with the matter. He hoped that they would Notice Members of the Congregation Beth- Israel are requested to attend meeting at Mr. I.

These gentlemen wish to treat us fairly.and though we are not anxious to bear any proportion of their loss, still we want to treat them fairly too." Aid. Hilditch.���"According to our charter is it the value to us or the value to the B. C. Tie and Lumber Co., of the plant that is to be considered in the matter of the purchase? A good deal depends on the interpretation we put on the clause in the charter concerning this." The mayor pointed out that the pole line throughout the town was in poor shape having been blown about by hig winds, and said that the wire could not be used. G. I. Wilson.���"When the plant was established there was a tacit understanding that we were to light the town, and if we had not been burnt out we should have actually been lighting the city today." He thought the aldermen should consider this, and suggested that there was in a way a moral obligation on the council in the matter. Aid. Naden.���"As far as moral claim Thanking the mayor and council for the audience granted them the gentlemen retired. An informal discussion followed among the aldermen. The mayor said."As far as we know the pole line doesn't seem to be worth a .only the company is in the position of being in possession of the field?" Aid. Pattullo agreed, and said that it was pretty sure that had they not been burnt out the company would have been lighting the city. Aid. Naden said that the Board of Trade agents figured that the plant salved was worth from $1900 to $2300 after the fire, but it was its present value that should be considered. He said that the mayor and engineer could go round the pole line and find it worth to the city about $750, but if they offered the company $2500 it would probably not be accepted and Aid. Mobley thought that an offer of $5000 would not be accepted either.

Architect A Good Combination A Joint Endowment Policy is similar to an Ordinary Endowment Policy, only that it is on the lives of two persons instead of on one. This "Joint" idea was first applied to partners in business enterprises, but quite recently it has been taken advantage of by husband and * wife for the investment of their savings and the protection of the home. This combination costs much less than two separate polices���-to illustrate, a regular Endowment policy on ONE life lor $1000, participating in profits, in the SUN LIFE OF CANADA, at age 30, calls for an annual premium of $49.40; a Joint Endowment on TWO lives both of the same age, costs onlv $55.85-a difference of $6.45. The wife who enters into this Joint Endowment with her husband therefore gets the protection of $1000 for $6.45 a year, or an additional payment of less than two cents a day. Should either die the amount of assurance is paid to whoever is named in the policy as beneficiary. Should both survive the Endowment period they then get the sum assured with profits added. When we recommend Endowment Life Assurance, we do so with the utmost confidence, for it has long ago passed the stage of experiment. It has made good its claims. The Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada has paid millions of dollars in matured endowments and the universal testimony of its policy holders is that it is one of the best ways to accumulate money that would otherwise be spent on odds and ends. A Strong Feature A strong feature of Endowment assurance is that it compels saving. Too many begin to save and grow weary at the slowness and quit. The Endowment policy insists on its premium deposits being made, and in this way trains the assured to save systematic- aly. Why it is Better Than a Savings Bank The many small balances in our Savings Banks are evidence that people need assistance in the matter of saving money. The thing we are compelled to do we do, but the thing that is optional is often left undone. Even although the Savings Bank way of saving were persisted in, it falls short of Endow- mant Assurance, inasmuch as the estate, in the event of death, is only representedajoy the amount of deposit, with interest, whereas the Endowment policy is worth to the estate the full face value of the policy the moment the first payment has been made. Looks After Old Age Endowment assurance, by thus forcing the saving of money, is more particularly seen to be a blessing when the years have passed and brought with them declining strength. It is then that the result of the ��� efforts of early saving is appreciated. It is sad to be unprovided for in old age. The possessor of an Endowment policy is laying up in his productive years for the time when such help will be urgently needed. A Word About the Company The Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada is one the strong financial institutions of Canada. The Company commenced business in 1872, and has had a marvellous record of steady growth. It is under the direct supervision of the Government of Canada, and reports to the British Board of Trade and many Insurance Departments of the United States and other countries, and enjoys the confidence ot them all.

Saturday, Sept. 10 FEATURING LOCAL FOODS Commenting on the Optim'st's article on the advisability of local caterers featuring fish the Toronto Star says: "Similar complaints have been made by travelers in the Maritime Provinces. They go there with visions of lobsters and fresh cod, and they find that the hotel bills of fare are much the same as in Toronto or Winnipeg. The food may be excellent; the fish may be available for those who seek them diligently, but no attempt is made to 'feature' these distinctively maritime products. A traveler on Lake Temis- caming had an odd experience. He knew that the waters were swarming with fish, and that on the shores millions of bushels of blueberries were going to waste. But never a fish nor a blueberry appeared on that boat. Bacon and eggs composed the bill of fare for breakfast, dinner and supper. It could not have been the meanness or even thrift that caused this monotony, for chickens and porkers in that vicinity must have been far more expensive than blueberries and fish. Perhaps the reason is that people do not value highly what is easy to obtain. They are tired of the native product and they forget that what is an old story for them would be a pleasing novelty for the stranger. The "featuring" of local products would be a good stroke of business not only for the caterer, but for the neighborhood." SCARCITY OF LABOR Mr. A. W. Smithers, chairman of the board of directors of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company, has been making similar statements outside to what he made here as to the scarcity of labor, and the consequent retarding of construction work on the transcont nental railway. He did so at Victoria, but the Victoria Times, in an editorial upon the subject that contains a gleam of hope, says: "The demand for labor in all sections of the Dominion is so great at present that some time may be required to overtake it. But if the volume of immigration continues to increase as it has done of late���and there is every indication that it will���the Grand Trunk Company will not long be hampered in its operations because of a shortage of labor." We can only trust that ths conclusion of the able writer may be verified, yet for the present there are evidences needed to support this optimistic view. Recently the contractors at this end of the line gave orders that at least one hundred men to work on the line should be shipped on the two big steamers of the Grand Trunk Pacific Company. Four steamers have arrived since the order was given and only the first of them carried a decent load of workers. Since then very few have taken advantage of the relatively high wages offered. Still, the harvests are nearly over and crowds of men seeking other avenues of livelihood are likely to come in great numbers from now on. ARE YOU IN NEED OF HELP?

New York, Sept. 4���Little hope is held out today for the recovery of Vera Fitch, daughter of the la'.e Henry Fitch of Oakland Cal., who shot herself at the Hotel Astor. The beautiful young woman came here from California to gain fame as a writer, and becoming discouraged, tried to end her life. She was identified early today by her mother. Miss Fitch still seeks to conceal he identity, saying to the nurses:* "You can question me until next year but I will not tell you who I am. My people are self-respecting folk, and I will not bring them into this " The young woman lived here with her sister Grace, formerly a San Francisco belle, now the wife of Roy W. Conger, a nephew of the late Edwin H. Conger, former minister to China. Miss Fitch was formerly popular in army society in San Francisco. She was then following her literary work writjng for magazines. Her father was a Mexican war veteran who was breveted for bravery. He captained one of the emigrant bands that crossed the plains in wagons at the time of the California rush.

An Old Song Rejuvenated I can not wear the old hair I wore some months gone by. I've laid it on the topmost shelf With many a weary sigh. No longer are they wearing puffs, And rats are quite de trop; I can not wear the old hair Oh, what a cruel blow! I can not wear the old hair, For which good gold I paid Red hair is so expensive when One gets the proper shade. I felt so dressed when it was coiffed, All little puffs and curls; But I can't wear the old hair, Alas for Fashion's whirls! I can not wear the old hair, Four switches I must buy And wind them round and round my head As flat as they will lie. My face is far too plump for this; My nose is much too long; But I can't wear the old hair, It's altogether wrong. ���Lippincott's Magazine If it is raining too hard to go down town ring up Telephone No 190.

Nelson, Sept. 7.���At Cranbrook two brothers Walter and Robert Hoag, were taken in by the police on Sunday suffering from severe alcoholism. They had been in town for a week and were known to be drinking heavily. They were taken to the police lockup and the doctor prescribed for them. During Monday they showed signs of betterment and yesterday morning at 2 o'clock were resting quietly when the jailer attended to their wants. His surprise was great when at 7 o'clock he found both of them dead in their cells. The chief of police communicated with Dr. Connolly, the coroner, who directed that an inquest be held. The enquiry was adjourned until this afternoon in order to have a postmortem examination of the remains made, it being considered by the jury an ex- tradordinary occurrence that both brothers should die at the same time, of the same cause P. 0.

If so we are talking to them. We can safely say, without fear of contradiction, that the Exchange Grill, is the only house in Prince Rupert, IN ANY LINE, that receives regular shipments of fresh eggs direct from the ranch. Our weekly consignments amount to three cases, containing 1,080 eggs, which we guarantee to be absolutely fresh. This number is sufficient to provide breakfast for fifty people daily. We will serve them in the shell, and will pay a five dollar gold piece to the patron who discovers one egg which is not strictly right.

SEPTEMBER 10, 1910 beTlores THE ' LACKOFLABOR u.MS IT IS DETRIMENTAL TO CLAlMF,!oW OF CAPITAL ���smithers of *he G��nd Construction Work Klabor is acting as a constable Question," said Mr. A.

Efforts should be i/totrytobringthecostofaborto , point where it will still pay to.bring money into the country. A great d*alof Resent prosperity of Canada u, due the enormous dvelopment works which are being carried on. But even*n connection with hese devetopment works the necessary labor cannot be obtained. Take the instance of the Grand Trunk Pacific. In British Columbia alone 5,000 more men could be employed on the construction w,rk which is going on, Not only is this fact delaying the work and allowing a large amount of capital to lie idle, but the railway company itself cannot be remunerated for its work until the line is built through to the coast. "Before we und rtook the construction of this national railroad, we had n��^e.a i that the cost of labor was so great. This factor has added enormously to the | original estimate of the cost of the road. "1 believe that though great care has been taken to make the Dominion emigration laws work as little hardship as passible the desire to keep out of the country those regarded as physically unfit has had the general effect of deterring many splendid strong men from coming in. For there are numerous families who for fear of being separated will not emigrate. England has no restrictions to her emigration. She takes in everybody, for she believes that n try- icg to shut out the undesirables, she is also shutting out many who are desirable in every respect. Similarly Canada is strong enough to pursue a more liberal Nicy in regard to her immigration laws. It is time enough for restrictions to be imposed when too many undesirables have come in, or when the population grows too large. "Never until my present trip have I had an adequate idea of the vast resources of this wonderful Dominion, and 1 consequently never had greater faith in them than now. But I do not think that Canadians generally appreciate the *ay in which the cost and scarcity of labor is hampering her development, and I believe that these two factors will have the effect of hampering other new enterprises which are now being projected. Another effect of the high wages is that laborers are able to earn intermittently as much as they formerly could through steady employment. As a result the Product of labor is less. It must be remembered that in a new country, howler great her resources, these resources ��e absolutely dead without capital. The United StateB with all her natural wealth is dependent on England, Germany and France for capital. Canada, a Wunger country still, must be dependent on Eur��P<- for a considerable time to c��me. The most precious of aU the ���*- which Canada possesses is her present high credit. The country is be- ?J developed on four per ^^ money. *> Pot think any country was ever de veloped so cheaply before. The credit which brings in that cheap money is the vitalizing element in the development of the resources of the Dominion."

S. senatorship so far as the candidates of Judge Thomas iBurke and former United States Senator John L. Wilson were concerned, having become acute friends of both candidates appealed to the highest Republican authority to attempt a solution, defeat staring both of them in the face if both stayed in the race. Both candiadtes were asked to get together and it was suggested that one should withdraw in the interest of party harmony. Meetings were held, Judge Burke and his friends declining to yield. Former Senator Wilson, while believing himself to be the stronger candidate, decided to withdraw for these two reasons: First���In order to meet the views of the official head of the Republican party in this nation. .Second���That the electorate of Seattle and King county might present an undivided front and secure a senator for King country and Washington. The first inland townsite on the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway east of Prince Rupert is now being put on the market. The townsite has been divided into lots with 33 feet frontage .and 120 feet deep, and 250 lots have already been disposed of. The new town is Ellison, situated on the bank of the Skeena river and 172 miles of Prince Rupert. It will be the first divisional point east and will be an important railway point. Ellison is also the hub of the fertile Buckley Valley and it is surrounded by an immensely rich mineral belt. Valuable discoveries of gold, silver ,lead and copper have been found and immense coal fields have been staked. These mineral properties are being devoloped now, but are handicapped for want of transportation. This the Grand Trunk Pacific will provide. All these things will make Ellison a big and busy town and its growth will start at once, in fact there are many there now. The geographical location of Ellison is worthy o: mention. It is on the bank of the picturesque Skeena river and just about on the border of the wet and dry belt. The scenery is magnificent. No matter which way you look there is something grand and entrancing. The town will be a popular residential one and many summer home will be built there in the near future. The climate is unsurpassed. It is more like Ontario than many parts of British Columbia but it also has many of the B. C. popular characteristics. C. D. Newton is the Prince Rupert agent for Ellison townsite and full information can be secured from him. aSee his add on another page in this issue. CITADEL FOR PRINCE RUPERT ENSIGN AND MRS. JOHNSON EXPECTED HERE SOON Captain Kerr Returns From His Station in Killisnoo District Alaska To Work in Fort Simpson and Port Essington.. Captain Kerr of the Salvation Army Corps was in the city yesterday having just returned from his station in the Killisnoo district of Alaska where he has been working amongst the Indians. Capta.n Kerr has been studying the Khlinket language, but declares that his progress with t does not at a 1 satisfy him. "It is a very difficult language" he says "considerably more difficult than the Chinook dialect. I would undertake to acquire some facility with the chinook language much sooner than I have found possible with the Khlinket tongue." Captain Kerr is going to div de his attention this fall between Fort Simpson and Port Essington spending two weeks in each place at a time. At the end o this month the Salvation Army battalions all over the world will be holding their Harvest Festival, and just about that time Ensign and Mrs. Johnson are expected to arrive in Prince Rupert where the Salvation Arm are now going to establish a citadel. So far they have not got a hall here, but this matter will speedily be seen to by Ensign Johnson who has the reputation of being an energetic and efficient organizer. He has been for two years in Dawson City and is at present enjoying a fortnight's furlough before taking up his new duties in Prince Rupert.

OFFICE: Cor Centre St. and First Ave. One Hundred Years of Peace One hundred years of peace have been nearly completed between Great Britain and the United States, and a proposal is being made that it shall be celebrated in some striking manner, says Public Opinion. "A committee entitled 'The National Committee for the Celebration of the One Hundredth Anniversary of Peace Among English-speaking People' has been formed to give effect to the suggestion," says the Times. Mr. Carnegie is chairman, and Mr. Taft is to be invited to become honorary president but a brilliant young Canadian���Mr. Mackenzie King, the minister of labor��� has the honor of making the suggestion. "If," says the 0&8ert>er,"the idea of celebrating the hundred years of peace is taken up with sufficient insight and earnestness under both flags a remarkable opportunity may lead to very memorable results." This area of peace runs from the signing of the Treaty of Ghent in 1814 between the two countries. Then There'* Something Doing For Vou in Prince Rupert. Busy Prince Rupert housewives thinking about fruit next week are probably turning their attention towards the business of canning the seductive peach and they could not find a more opportune time. Peaches, especially Alberta peaches are now at about the cheapest they will go this season and wise housewives will get busy if they want to do any canning. This will be found a pretty good time for green stuff in Prince Rupert. A big fresh consignment has just arrived including new green corn, parsley, celery, new head lettuce, as well as cucumbers and pumpkins suggestive of most delectable pie. A chat about Prince Rupert's fruit supply with R. C. Bill who represents the firm of Elworth and Radford of Seattle in this city, brings out the fact that Prince Rupert is keen on fruit. "At least five kind of grapes comes into the city" he said "Here you have the two finest kinds, these big red ones are Tokays and these white ones Malayas, which have a flavour all of their own and are a favorite. The Muscat grape is also a white one, and the Black Prince and Black Ferara, as their names suggest, are of the dark variety. All kinds at present come from California, and this is a great week for grapes, let me tell you, in Prince Rupert, You can buy every sort, and better than usual today. "Apples of course are coming in now in quantity. Your fine eating apples usually find their way here from Seattle. Cooking apples come from Vancouver mostly." R. C. Bill was bending over a box of rosy Jeffrey apples as he spoke. "You bet I'm busy" he added "but this is one of the largest lots of fresh fruit Ed. Clarke has handled this fall," and a glance around the floor of Mr. Clarke's wholesale warehouse piled with the fragrant white wood cases amply supported the assertion.

Morrow Read The Optimist PERSONAL CHARACTER OF KING GEORGE V Prominent British Journalist Pays Tribute to Our New Sovereign For His Many Manly Attributes and Kingly Qualities. "The Personal Character of King George" is the subject of an interesting article by Mr. W. T. Stead, in "The Review of Reviews." The article is comprehensive, and claims to be an authoritative reply to certain calumnies which have been circulated concerning his Majesty. The subject is admittedly a very unpleasant one to raise, but as it has been raised Mr. Steel says it must be set- led once for all. "Is it, or is it iH>t a fact," he asks, "that King George is a person of intemperate habits? Or is he, as Lord Rosebery and the Dean of Norwich have proclaimed, a man of examplary life?" For answer Mr. Stead points to his Majesty's excellent reputation among those who know him most intimately. "The King," he says, "has always been remarkable for the punctuality and unfailing regularity with which he has always performed all of his functions. He has kept all of his appointments, and he has kept them on time. Nor has there ever been, so far as I can ascertain, after a rigorous examination of the stories current, even the shadow for the foundation of the cruel calumny of which he has been made the subject." Continuing, Mr. Stead declares that so far as being given to intemperance, King George V is probably "the most abstemious King who has ever ascended the English throne." It is recalled that the King's record as a youth at sea was examplary, "and as he is now, so he has been all his life���sober, temperate and abstemious." Further, Mr. Stead points out that the King could not be famous as one of the best shots in the Kingdom, a distinction requiring for its winning great sureness of aim and steadiness of arm, if he were not a very temperate man. Then there is the more malignant falsehood described by Mr. Stead as "a Maltese myth," according to which King George was married to an admiral's daughter at the Mediterranean Island at a time when he never expected to be called to the throne. In a letter quoted by Mr. Stead, Sir Henry Ponsonby, for many years the trusty private secretary of Queen Victoria, dismisses the story as ridiculous, pointing out that similar stories have been circulated by idle gossipers about all df the royal family. But Mr. Stead is able to bring indirectly the even more emphatic repudiation of King Edward. "I submitted through a mutual friend," he writes, "a series of questions to the late king, who was then Prince of Wales. They were very precise, categorical and covered the whole ground from A to Z. The king, than as always, was very courteous, and ex- Iressed his utmost readinesi to go into the whole matter. In reply I received a most categorical, definite and emphatic repudiation of the whole story. He denied absolutely the story of the alleged marriage, morganatic or otherwise. He asked, not unnaturally, if the prince was married as was alleged, where was the marriage register, and who was the clergyman who performed the illegal ceremony? If the lady in question was an admiral's daughter, could it be that her father tolerated a clandestine marriage conducted in defiance of the law without the knowledge of the prince's parents. He also pointed out the various other inherent improbabilities of the story, and finally gave me his most positive assurance that the story was a lie from beginning to end, and, what is more, a lie so ridiculous that it could not impose upon anyone with the slightest knowledge of the royal family, or of the navy or of the church. "It follows, therefore," Mr. Stead adds, "that the whole of the fairy story falls to the ground. The matter was also brought, although not by me, to the attention of the present king, who treated it, as all the rest of the family did, as one of those absurd fictions apparently invented for the purpose of testing the gullibility of the public." Dealing with King George's personal traits, Mr. Stead declares that "no monarch has ever ascended the English throne with a higher sense of public duty or a more humble dependence upon his Maker." "His Majesty is a much keener politician than his father, for whom he cherishes the most filial affection as 'the best and kindest friend he had in the world'. In conversation he is much more consecutive than his father, who has a habit of abruptly jumping from one subject to another in a way that was somewhat disconcerting to those unaccustomed to the natural result of the royal prerogative always to lead a conversation. He frequently attended the debates of the house of lords, and was often to be seen in the gallery of the house of commons. "In the free-and-easy discussion that takes place after dinner he is a keen, voluble and somewhat loud-voiced disputant. He has his own views, which he knows how to express with vigor and emphasis. He has also a knack of picturesque description of scenes in which he has taken part, and his public speeches have shown that, as he has an eye to see, so he has a tongue to describe scenes which impress themselves upon his imagination. For he has an imagination, which is fired by the greatness of the position of England in the world, and a lofty ambition to play his part worthily in carrying on that great providential mission which has been entrusted to British beyond the seas." AN EXAMPLE OF HYPOCRISY RUSSIAN NEWSPAPER ATTACKS JAPANESE POLICY Claims that Japan's Attitude toward Corea is "An Historical Example of Shameless Hypocrisy" and Says Russia's Interests are Insignificant St. Petersburg, Sept. 4.���The text of the treaty by which the Korean Kingdom was annexed to the Empire of Japan was published here yesterday, and in the case of the Novoe Vremya, was accompanied by a bitterly sarcastic editorial. V The document, the paper says, constitutes "an historical example of shameless hypocrisy." The judicial importance of the treaty is null, says the Novoe Vremua. The Novoe Vremya adds that Russia's interests in the "Hermit Kingdom" are insignificant, and for that even Russian diplomacy will not raise its voice in protest. The United States and Great Britain have been hard hit, in the opinion of the editor, who however, concludes that as war is the sole means of annulling an accomplished fact, the situation was accepted, for assuredly nobody would go to war for Korea. WILL GO TO HAWAII . Steamer Prince Rupert to Carry Excursionist in February It has been announced at the offices of the Grand Trunk Pacific in Vancouver that negotiations for the chartering of the Prince Rupert to carry a party of Northwestern business men (from .Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, Spokane and other cities to Honolulu in February had been concluded. The trip will be made under the auspices of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce. The Prince Rupert will leave on February 1 and return February 28. As the coastwise traffic laws also apply to the Hawaiian Islands, it is probable that the steamship will depart from and arrive at Vancouver or Victoria. Later advices state that the secretary of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce has received so many applications for the trip that an attempt is being made to secure the Prince George also for the trip.

MACDONALD'S Clearing Sale of Furniture On Firat Ave. Prior to Removal GOODS ARE BEING OFFERED AT FAR BELOW COST Chicago, Sept. 5.���Venus, more probably than Mars, is inhabited by beings, according to a state- of Prof. Duncan McMillan of astronomical department of the of Chicago. This statement was made by Professor McMillan after having read the announcement of Professor See, in charge of the naval astronomical bureau at Mare Island, Cal., in which he said that he was convinced that the planets revolving about the fixed stars were inhabited by some land of intelligent beings. The statement by the California astronomer was ridiculed by Professor McMillan, who said that it was sum- ply a guess on Professor See's part. Inasmuch as there are at least 100,- 000,000 stars that are known to exist, it is safe to say that some of them are inhabited. Professor McMillan offers proof to support his statement by saying he has found that atmospheric conditions surrounding the planet Venus are similar to those about the earth, hence in his opinion it is impossible that that planet is uninhabited, while it would be impossible to sustain life in the climate which he believes surrounds Mars.
