Price, Five Cents ANOTHER LINER FOR THIS PORT PHONES FROM FRISCO BALCOM STEAMSHIP COMPANY ON THE STEWART RUN I Company Purchase* New Steamer Which ia Fitted With Refrigerator Space Enough to Handle Two Hundred Tona of Perishables. :. Although the name of the new vessel has not been given out, advices from Victoria bring the information that a new steamer, now plying between Liverpool and Spanish ports in the fruit trade, has been chartered by the Balcom Steamship compnny, and will go on the run between Victoria and Stewart. The new steamer is fitted with refrigerator space large enough to handle 300 tons of freight, and can be used to great advantage in handling fresh meat and fruits between the two cities. At present the company is operating the John L. Card between Victoria and Seattle, and have entered negotiations to secure the Granier and the .Selkirk. The company is using the Pacific Coast company's wharf at Victoria, and is handling a great deal of Sound trade at present. Mayor Would Rather See Canadian Than American Instruments Telephone instruments to the value of $1,372 are required in the city to meet the demands of prospective subscribers, and the city clerk at last night's council meeting suggested that as there was only one member of the Telephone committee present the council might deal with and so expediate the mattei so that the instruments might be or dered from San Francisco where they are manufactured. "Are these instruments not to be had manufactured in Canada?" asked the mayor. The clerk thought not, though he believed the company supplying them intended to open a factory in the Dominion. The cost of the instruments, he said, ran from $6.70 to $8.60. Aid. Pattullo thought that the matter should be dealt with in the usual way by the telephone committee, and it was accordingly so referred. CITY POWER PLANT SITE Ad. Hilditch Suggests Vicinity of Hays Creek For It. Some little friendly discussion took place at last night's city council meeting over the vexed question of the long delayed Electric Lighting P ant, when Aid. Lynch referred to th* matter of the suggested site for the city owned plant in the vicinity of Seal Cove, stating that he understood that the selection of a site outside the city limits would involve extra cost of wiring and also loss of voltage. He suggested that Mr. Burns be asked to say if this were not so, and Mr. Burns gave the council to understand that to avoid the loss of voltage over a long carry of current from a far out power station, thicker wires would be needed which would cost more. Mr. Burns suggested that a site in the neighborhood of McBride street or the Market Place would be economical in this respect for a city Electric Power station. Aid. Hildtich mentioned that in conversation with Aid. Smith recently that a site right on the bank of Hays Creek would be a good one for the Electric Light Plant. Property there, though low priced now would be very valuable some day. Aid. Lynch agreed that that would be a better site than one far out of the city, but wondered if the property were not rather expensive. "W6uld not the price of coal be increased?" asked Aid. Barrow, but the general opinion was that this would not be so as coal could easily be carried by scows up the creek. Aid. Lynch then said he thought the city should secure a site there without delay provided the price of lots there was not too high. Aid. Barrow approved Aid. Hilditch's uggestion regarding the secection of he site. F. B. Deacon Removes F. B.

BITTER ATTACK ON ROOSEVELT JUST AS HE IS BEING HAILED AS GREAT LEADER Evening Post Say* This Roarer For Political Virtue While In Public Life Was Hand In Glove With the Worst Corruptionists. (Special to the Optimist) Kansas City, Sept. 1.���Roosevelt is meeting with immense success in his tour through the country. At every point he is awaited by large and enthusiastic crowds and his every utterance cheered. Thirty thousand people gathered here to hear him speak, and hailed him as the great progressive" Republican leader. That the Democrats no less than a portion of the colonel's own party are scared up by the furor he is creating, was shown today by the fact that thou- sandsjof copies of the New York Evening Post had been purchased and were distributed among the crowd after the speaking. The Post, unusually a supporter of progressive policies, in this issue flays Roosevelt most unmercifully. It says: "Such whirling words as Theodore Roosevelt utters are a curse to public life. They arouse passion without directing it. They give none a clear idea of what the speaker means, except that thought which inflames a crowd and makes mischief. "The champion of purity, this roarer for political virtue, is the man who for years, when he was in public life, was hand in glove with the worst political corruptionists of his day. Him it was who toadied to Tom Piatt, who praised Matt Quay, and paid court to Mark Hanna. "Under Roosevelt as president Senator Aldrich rose to the height of his power. He was always on good terms with Roosevelt. It was Roosevelt who asked Harriman to come to the White House sectetly, where he took his money to buy votes secretly in New York. "He it was who afterwards wrote to 'My dear Sherman'���yes, the same Sherman with whom he is fighting today���reviling capitalists, to whom he had previously written 'you and I are practical men.' "If Roosevelt is such a great cincher of crooks why did he not cinch them when he was shaking hands with them? Does he think that everyone has forgotten the $50,000 taken from the wid- HOME RULE FOR SCOTLAND NEXT MOVEMENT IS STEADILY GAINING IN STRENGTH Nationalists Claim That Country Is Only Legislated For As An Aftersight.���Would Manage Own Affairs In Her Own Way. London, August 28.���The movement in favor of home rule for Scotland with regard to its purely local affairs is steadily gaining strength. The Scottish National committee, which is composed of a number of the leading Scottish M. P. 's, has issued s striking manifesto, in which it says: "The settlement of the constitutional question will offer an opportunity for reorganizing parliamentary business on a basis of devolution. Ireland's claim to self-government is not likely to be overlooked; that of Scotland is, in its ownjway, no less urgent. "A policy of devolution for Scottish affairs involves a break with the antiquated procedure of two centuries. This procedure was imposed upon us at the union, when Scotland was practically delivered into the hands of bureaucracy. "Scotland is frequently legislated for as an afterthought. Clauses dealing with her affairs are unexpectedly tacked on to bills intended to deal with purely English questions, Such Scottish legislation as in introduced is initiated by the permanent officials of the different boards, is prepared lu London, and becomes a government bill before Scottish members have had a chance of discussing their views before those responsible for its introduction. This has been the fate of Scotland under all governments. The problem before us is to devise some system of representative control over Scottish affairs in Scotland, a principle which, if applied to the different parts of the United Kingdom, would provide for a true expression of its own affairs, leaving the imperial parliament free to transact the business of the Empire." ows and orphansj^and added to the Roosevelt presidential corruption fund? Did he not take a big cheque from the beef trust? He was glad to get it, and now he is going to make the big corporations come to time."

TO START SURVEY Colonel Tracy * Here for the Light and Power Company Colonel T. H. Tracy, civil engineer, of Vancouver, ia in town in the interests of the Prince Rupert Power and Light Company, which has a permit for 3000 inches of water form Woodworth Lake. He comes here to look over the situation and to start surveys for the development and sale of the power. He is accompanied by his son and is staying at the Premier. The Colonel finds many old friends in Prince Rupert. He was for many years city engineer of Vancouver and is a large property owner there. He was a colonel during the Riel rebellion and also saw service during the Fenian raid. EVIDENCE CONFLICTS But Judge Young Finds a Way of Settling the Case "One man swears one thing, and another man swears exactly the opposite, and then you expect a man who has never seen anything at all of the matter in dispute to rule as to what are the rights and wrongs of the matter"said Judge Young at the county court this morning in connection with the case of John E. Strange vs. Herbert Kerrigan for the amount of a board account. "All I can do" said the judge after hearing the evidence "is to charge Strange with two week's occupancy of the bulding in question. It was clearly a benefit to Strange to have the use of the building in question at the time, and though this is not actually charged for against him, it seems to me the only way of arriving at a settlement."

ABDUL HAMID HAS ESCAPED TAKEN TWELVE OF HIS HAREM ALONG WITH HIM Disappearance Creates General Uneasiness Among Young Turk Party���Trouble With Greece Is Bobbing Up Because of Boycott. (Special to the Optimist) Constantinople, J3ep. 1.���The war flame is again smouldering in Turkey, where the Grecian minister has complained about the continued boycott on Grecian goods. The bringing on of this question has aroused all the old antagonism that was at boiling point just before the Turkish revolution and the autonomy of Greece is likely to be again disturbed as a consequence. What adds to the general uneasiness is the sudden disappearance of Abdul Hamid, the deposed sulton, with twelve of his harem, from the prison villa at Salonika. This disappearance took place during last night and so far no trace has been obtained. Several plots for the former sultan's escape had been unearthed recently, and it was supposed that in consequence he was being more strictly guarded. It is probable several arrests will be made in the course of the day, although the Young Turk party, which Is still in control of the government, seems afraid to take definite action in the matter. HAY3 AT SEATTLE Members of Party Say. Growth of Prince Rupert is Remarkable (Special to the Optimist) Vancouver, Sep. 1.���The Hays party from Prince Rupert and Stewart arrived here last night on the Prince George and went on to Seattle. The boat had been held up for five hours by fog. While here the members of the party were enthusiastic in regard to the country they had visited and particularly so as to Prince Rupert itself. They said th growth of the city and seaport was in every was remarkable and there as no doubt of its great future.

The Rupert City is coming back on this run. She is due here today with 1,500 tons of coal and 400 tons of general cargo. Part of the latter is one hundred dump cars to be used by the railway contractors. The steamer has been chartered by the Grand Trunk Pacific company to be used on this run until December 15th, . with the option of purchasing at the expiration of that period. The Grand Trunk has found its two steamers, the Prince George and the Prince Rupert, inadequate to handle the freight traffic between Vancouver and this port.

Her agents are Dodwell & Company, and by that company she was chartered to McKenzie Bros., who have now sub- chartered her to the railway company , GOING TO NEW WHARF Inverkip Has Finished Unloading Cement For Contractors Tbe freight steamer Inverkip has finished unloading the twenty-six thousand barrels of cement for Foley, Welch and Stewart and today is to move to the fish company's wharf and there unload the rest of her cargo of four thousand barrels.

Ten years ago, when I was camped a mile below what is now Dawson City, when the arctic summer, with its monotonous daylight, was about drawing to a close, a terrific thunderstorm came along one night; the wind blew a hurricane, shifted all around the compass many times, lashed the river into foam, and snipped off the trees round the camp like carrots. The lightning was close to us and very vivid; the thunder roared and re-echoed again and again far away in the mountains. A few days after these fireworks I was visited one evening by a huge giant, a typical prospector, and as fine a specimen of a mah as you could hope to come across in an ordinary lifetime. Handsome of face, bright-eyed, tall, straight-limbed, broad in chest, spare in flank, this magnificent human creature came crashing through the underbrush like a moose. After the manner of his kind he nodded at me, sat down, then slowly filled his pipe and proceeded to unburden himself of his tale of woe. "Pardner," said he, "you ain't afraid of ghosts, be yer?" As it was considered infra dig in that country to be afraid of anything, I assured him that I was a proud possessor of unlimited courage, and had more nerve than I could conveniently pack. "Well, pardner, it's like this, I've brought a dead man down here to stay with yer awhile; I've got him in a boat; I've tied him up down under them bushes, and if yer don't mind I'll leave him there for a bit." I assured him that any friend of his was most welcome, dead or alive, but ventured to suggest that as the weather was still warm perhaps a funeral would be appropriate. "Pardner, yer needn't be the least mite skeered. John will keep all right���why, he's guaranteed for thirty days." Then came the particulars of the tragedy: It appeared the deceased and my newly-found friend were, as he remarked, "sort of side pardners," and were prospecting away up in the Eldorado . . On the night of the big storm they were sleeping together under a sort of make-shift "lean to," when a tree was blown down, instantly killing the young man by smashing in his skull. There was no help nearby, and after cutting away the tree my giant discovered that his little "side pardner" had done with prospecting in this world forever. Taking him on his back, as he innocently observed (he always referred to the departed as "him") he actually packed the body 25 miles down to Dawson "I had him in the company's warehouse," he said simply, "till yesterday, but the captain told me I had to take him away, as the authorites won't allow him to stop in town." I again suggested a funeral, when the giant looked serious, and explained his reason for delaying the final operation. It seemed that the dead man had a brother who was prospecting away up some distant creek, and he had been sent for, as they thought it the proper thing for him to officiate aa chief mourner, so they decided to keep he late lamented above ground till the arrival of the brother, besides which my friend was anxious to prove there was no foul play. With these ideas, a number of old "sour dough" miners, with the aid of a retired tinsmith and many tomato cans, had actually managed to can him in a sort of home made casket, so that he would keep. And there he lay in the bottom of the boat, moored to the bank, a bright shining object, a quiet, well behaved, and, at present, inoffensive neighbor. "Good night, pardner,"*Jsaid my visitor, and then looking over his shoulder before he slowly disappeared into the bush, "keep an eye on him, will yer?" "Yer see, some of the boys might take a notion to play a 'josh' on me and come and cut the line and let him go down the stream." Nothing happened for the next few days, and the faithful giant used to come down every morning and take a look at his armor-plated friend, till at last he came one day, arrayed in all the trappings of woe, including a collar and an immense black necktie. He proudly announced that the brother had arrived, and the funeral was ordered for two o'clock that afternoon. The regular o'.d miner dearly loves a funeral. To him it is an ��vent not to be neglected. The sad event is announced by crude notices posted on trees in conspicuous places, and the solemnity of the occasion is highly appreciated and most impressive. The virtues of the deceased are generally discussed in low tones, and his many good qualities often exaggerated. The day of the funeral I was formally invited to be present at the obsequies, but was obliged to decline. The giant prospector, who by this time I had christened "Gabriel Cqn- roy," then suggested that I should send a couple of my men in canoes to follow the boat containing the canned gentleman, remarking quite pathetically, "I think, pardner, that will make a kind of a nice little percession��� like, don't you think?" The ceremony came off exactly as planned, and was a great success. I saw Gabriel once or twice afterwards when he thanked me J.most;^ profusely for my share in the proceedings, which consisted principally in not being scared of ghosts, and^taking care of "him." J.

Hotel Roof Forma Divide Situated exactly at the highest point of the divide of the Rocky Mountains, on the Crow's Nest division of th Canadian Pacific railway, in British Columbia, the Summit hotel, of which "Andy" Goode, a famous hunter and frontierman, is proprietor, claims a unique distinction.. When it rains in the mountains, says the Wide World Magazine, the water which falls on the eastern slope of the Summit hotel roof trickles away to join a tiny rivulet, which in due process of time mingles its waters with the broad Atlantic. The water falling just beyond the ridgepole, on the other side of the roof, flows westerly, and ultimately into the Pacific. ARCTIC EXPLORATION Amundien'a Veaael ia Provisioned For No Leas Than Seven Years Captain Roald Amundsen, the discoverer of the magnetic pole, is sure in advance of making at least one "record" in his expedition to the North Pole, on which he started some weeks ago. He will be cut off from connection with the rest of the world longer than any predecessor in Arctic exploration. Not until the summer of 1915 or 1916 does he expect to reach Eastern Greenland. His vessel is provisioned for no less than seven years It is the same Fram that served Nansen and Sverdrup. The plan to be followed is ihe same as that for which the Canadian explorer, Captain Bernier, tried in vain for years to raise funds���the .plan, namely, of drifting slowly along with the ice pack. Now that the element of "farthest North" has been eliminated by the success of Peary in reaching the Pole, the scientific aspects of a polar trip stand 8 out "Jfmore conspicuously. Amundsen'.;; intends to pay particular attention to��the study, of the Polar Sea. especially its bottom, with the aid of the latest contrivances for sounding, in which great progress has been made since Nansen's day. Submarine currents also will be studied. Why Not Prince Rupert Rear-Admiral Kingsmill is returning to Canada. He has been in England looking after the Canadian navy, which Messrs. Bourassa and Monk have been hammering to smithereens down in Quebec. He will report that the Niobe��� not all tears, however���will be despatched in September and be put into commission in the Gulf of St. Lawrence as a training station. The Rainbow also has been renovated and will swing out this month via the Suez Canal for Esquimalt on a fisheries protection assignment. Then there are four cruisers and sue destroyers to build���in Canada. Admiral Kingsmill is interested in having work begun quickly. Probabilities are in favour of shipbuilding plants and dry docks at Montreal, Quebec and Halifax���just as soon as the Government are able to decide the ticklish problem of which is entitled to how much. ���Canadian Courier.

Prince Rupert Steam Laundry Filth Avenue end Fulton Street. Ten years ago, when I was camped a mile below what is now Dawson City, when the arctic summer, with its monotonous daylight, was about drawing to a close, a terrific thunderstorm came along one night; the wind blew a hurricane, shifted all around the compass many times, lashed the river into foam, and snipped off the trees round the camp like carrots. The lightning was close to us and very vivid; the thunder roared and re-echoed again and again far away in the mountains. A few days after these fireworks I was visited one evening by a huge giant, a typical prospector, and as fine a specimen of a mah as you could hope to come across in an ordinary lifetime. Handsome of face, bright-eyed, tall, straight-limbed, broad in chest, spare in flank, this magnificent human creature came crashing through the underbrush like a moose. After the manner of his kind he nodded at me, sat down, then slowly filled his pipe and proceeded to unburden himself of his tale of woe. "Pardner," said he, "you ain't afraid of ghosts, be yer?" As it was considered infra dig in that country to be afraid of anything, I assured him that I was a proud possessor of unlimited courage, and had more nerve than I could conveniently pack. "Well, pardner, it's like this, I've brought a dead man down here to stay with yer awhile; I've got him in a boat; I've tied him up down under them bushes, and if yer don't mind I'll leave him there for a bit." I assured him that any friend of his was most welcome, dead or alive, but ventured to suggest that as the weather was still warm perhaps a funeral would be appropriate. "Pardner, yer needn't be the least mite skeered. John will keep all right���why, he's guaranteed for thirty days." Then came the particulars of the tragedy: It appeared the deceased and my newly-found friend were, as he remarked, "sort of side pardners," and were prospecting away up in the Eldorado . . On the night of the big storm they were sleeping together under a sort of make-shift "lean to," when a tree was blown down, instantly killing the young man by smashing in his skull. There was no help nearby, and after cutting away the tree my giant discovered that his little "side pardner" had done with prospecting in this world forever. Taking him on his back, as he innocently observed (he always referred to the departed as "him") he actually packed the body 25 miles down to Dawson "I had him in the company's warehouse," he said simply, "till yesterday, but the captain told me I had to take him away, as the authorites won't allow him to stop in town." I again suggested a funeral, when the giant looked serious, and explained his reason for delaying the final operation. It seemed that the dead man had a brother who was prospecting away up some distant creek, and he had been sent for, as they thought it the proper thing for him to officiate as chief mourner, so they decided to keep he late lamented above ground till the arrival of the brother, besides which my friend was anxious to prove there was no foul play. With these ideas, a number of old "sour dough" miners, with the aid of a retired tinsmith and many tomato cans, had actually managed to can him in a sort of home made casket, so that he would keep. And there he lay in the bottom of the boat, moored to the bank, a bright shining object, a quiet, well behaved, and, at present, inoffensive neighbor. "Good night, pardner," J said my viator, and then looking over his shoulder before he slowly disappeared into the bush, "keep an eye on him, will yer?" "Yer see, some of the boys might take a notion to play a 'josh' on me and come and cut the line and let him go down the stream." Nothing happened for the next few days, and the faithful giant used to come down every morning and take a look at his armor-plated friend, till at last he came one day, arrayed in all the trappings of woe, including a collar and an immense black necktie. He proudly announced that the brother had arrived, and the funeral was ordered for two o'clock that afternoon. The regular od miner dearly loves a funeral. To him it is an event not to be neglected. The sad event is announced by crude notices posted on trees in conspicuous places, and the solemnity of the occasion is highly appreciated and most impressive. The virtues of the deceased are generally discussed in low tones, and his many good qualities often exaggerated. The day of the funeral I was formally invited to be present at the obsequies, but was obliged to decline. The giant prospector, who by this time I had christened "Gabriel Con- roy," then suggested that I should send a couple of my men in canoes to follow the boat containing the canned gentleman, remarking quite pathetically, "I think, pardner, that will make a kind of a nice little percession��� like, don't you think?" The ceremony came off exactly as planned, and was a great success. I saw Gabriel once or twice afterwards when he thanked me ^.most"^ profusely for my share in the proceedings, which consisted principally in not being scared of ghosts, andUaking care of "him." J. R.

Hotel Roof Forms Divide Situated exactly at the highest point of the divide of the Rocky Mountains, on the Crow's Nest division of th Canadian Pacific railway, in British Columbia, the Summit hotel, of which "Andy" Goode, a famous hunter and frontierman, is proprietor, claims a unique distinction.. When it rains in the mountains, says the Wide World Magazine, the water which falls on the eastern slope of the Summit hotel roof trickles away to join a tiny rivulet, which in due process of time mingles its waters with the broad Atlantic. The water falling just beyond the ridgepole, on the other side of the roof, flows westerly, and ultimately into the Pacific. ARCTIC EXPLORATION Amundsen's Vessel is Provisioned For No Leas Than Seven Years Captain Roald Amundsen, the discoverer of the magnetic pole, is sure in advance of making at least one "record" in his expedition to the North Pole, on which he started some weeks ago. He will be cut off from connection with the rest of the world longer than any predecessor in Arctic exploration. Not until the summer of 1916 or 1916 does he expect to reach Eastern Greenland. His vessel is provisioned for no less than seven years It is the same Fram that served Nansen and Sverdrup. The plan to be followed is ihe same as that for which the Canadian explorer, Captain Bernier, tried in vain for years to raise funds���the plan, namely, of drifting slowly along with the ice pack. Now that the element of "farthest North" has been eliminated by the success of Peary in reaching the Pole, the scientific aspects of a polar trip stand V'out Tmore conspicuously. Amundsen'!; intends to pay particular attention to^the study, of the Polar Sea. especially its bottom, with the aid of the latest contrivances for sounding, in which great progress has been made since Nansen's day. Submarine currents also will be studied. Why Not Prince Rupert Rear-Admiral Kingsmill is returning to Canada. He has been in England looking after the Canadian navy, which Messrs.

Thursday, Sept. 1 THE TWO PREMIERS Instead of gnashing his teeth over the popu larity that Sir Wilfrid Laurier is winning in the West. Premier Richard McBride, of British Columbia, resolved to be happy and get into the procession. The thing that it is nrcessary for Conservatives to realize is that although Sir Wilfrid Laurier is not making partisan speeches, he is strengthening himself by his personal influence, and by identifying himself with the Western spirit and with national sentiment. The qualities that make him the favorite son of the West���if the word son may be used to describe a somewhat fatherly attitude. Now, there is in this situation some material for exasperation among our Conservative friends. But what is the use of being exasperated when you cannot turn your exasperation into fighting power? Premier McBride takes the wiser course. He will be non-partisan, too. He extracts from the older Premier this remarkable tribute: "He has furnished a striking illustration of the ametitiesy of public life.as understood in the cradle of party politics in the old land. I shall carry home and ever retain happy memories of this unprecedented and happiest experience of a long public life." But partyism aside, this is a remarkable meeting: the veteran Premier and the young one; the east and the west; the French-Canadian and the man who represents perhaps the most distinctly English of all the Provinces of Canada; the Province that is the gateway to the Orient. Quebec is rich in the memories of the past. British Columbia, while it has its history too, looks forward to a future in which it will vie with Ontario and Quebec and the Prairie Provinces for the leadership of the Dominion It is an occasion to lure away the fiercest partisan from his partisanship, to consider the opportunity and the destiny of the country that is the common heritage of all Canadians, and the tremendous responsibilities which that opportunity involves. ���Toronto Star, Liberal.

The bustling life of the new city of Prince Rupert was pictured yesterday for the entertainment and information of the people of the old country and with the hope of inducing them to take tours to this great Dominion seaport. The pictures are being made by Alfred G. Gosden, of London, England, who is sent out by the Allan Steamship company, the purpose being to show the films extensively and thus acquaint the people of the British islands with actual conditions here. Accompanying Mr. Gosden is Professor J. Milton State, of Liverpool, who is engaged to lecture with the exhibition of the pictures. The fact that such an extensive enterprise should have been undertaken shows the deep interest taken in the financial circles of Great Britain. It also shows the push and energy of the Allan line in looking out for tourist travel in this direction even in advance of any steps taken by the transcontinental railway company. Yet the latter is by no means behind, bu its enterprise is to provide . literature, well illustrated, for such purposes. There will arrive here in a few days a large party of artists, photographers and writers who will have made the long trip along the surveyed line from Edmonton, so this moving picture enterprise is but another form of advertising Prince Rupert to the world at large. The Allan kinetescope party is to pourtray a trip from the Allan line docks at Montreal to the wharves at Prince Rupert, incidentally taking in all the points of interest en route and showing the various industries in which the people are occupied, thus combining entertainment with reliable information of every kind pertaining to the country traversed. Yesterday the party took views of the principal streets and buildings, the wharves and so on. This part of the work was to have been completed today but the morning was not sufficiently bright for such work and it was postponed. Therefore, a trip was made to Georgetown in Mr. Peck's launch, the Mc- Culloch, Mr. Peck regretting that the gentlemen will not be able to see the large sawmills there in operation as much as the people of Prince Rupert must regret that the pictures here were not taken while the triumphal arches and decorations were up. But it is the aim to take such pictures under ordinary conditions. Views will also be made of the most beautiful points along the Skeena River and of the islands I djacent to this port. PERSONAL J71ius Levy has returned from a month's visit to Los Angeles and other southern cities. His health is much improved and his many friends are glad to see him back again.

TO PAY PART OF HIS DEBTS IN TEN DAYS Judgment Given in Case of Peter Kirvokapich Sued for Cash Owed in County Court Thia Morning��� Will Rustle Fo- It business and for any purpose whatever; To carry on and to do any other 1 .. things which usually are and can be convenient! any other business or w A can be conveniently carried on or done by persons carrying on such business or undertaking aa aforesaid or calculated directly or Indirectly to enhance the value of or render profitable any of this Compsny's property or rights; To acquire and undertake the whole or any part of the business property and liabilities of any person, firm or Company carrying on sny business with this Company is authorized to carry on, or possessed of property suitable for the fiurposes of this Compsny, and as consideration or the same to psy cash or to Issue sny shares, Peter Krivokapich appeared this morning in the County Court before Judge Young to explain why he had not paid various sums owed by him to certain of his fellow countrymen. In the witness box he protested fervently his intention to pay, but alas! he had not the wherewithal. He explained to the satisfaction of the Judge, however, that he had paid $400 towards an account of $448.85 against him by Geo. Raicheneich, and had been allowed an extension of the two months in which to pay the balance, the matter being in the hands of Messrs. Carss & Bennett. Another sum of $108.10 he owed to Marks Vackovitch, and Judge Young held this over until next court. A third amount, $37.85, Peter owed to R. Lahwrich, and this sum Judge Young ordered him to find within ten days. "Guess I got to go out and rustle for it," said Peter, and Judge Young recommended him to do so. The money was owed by Krivokapitch over contract work done by him, the men suing having worked for him. Krivokapich had used the cash paid him for the contract to square other debts, and cash owed him by others failed to come in though he had gone 100 miles up river, as he said, "to rustle for it." He owned claims on the American side, but hearing that he was a married amn, Judge Young was unwilling to force him to realize on his property immediately. "You are strong and able to work for this money," said the Judge. 'These other men to whom you owe it have worked for it and they ought to get it." Peter hurried out of court to begin "rustling" right away he said. Messrs. Williams & Manson acted for the pursuers.

From Annual Resume of Conditions Made By Lord Strathcona The depression in trade which was experienced throughout the world in 1908 has now lifted, and the figures relating to the trade between Canada and Great Britain, which are given below, show that large increases have taken place both in imports from Canada and in exports to the Dominion. The total foreign and Colonial trade, of the United Kingdom in the calendar year 1909 was 1,003,119,961 pounds sterling as compared with 970,056,311 pounds sterling in 1908, an increase of of 33,062,650 pounds sterling. The total trade with Canada in the year 1909 was 29 424,609 pounds sterling as against 26,538,206 pounds sterling in 1908, an increase of 2,886,403 pounds sterling. The total exports from the United Kingdom to Canada in 1909 were 8,414,- 634 pounds sterling, compared with 6,288,447 pounds sterling in 1908, a very satisfactory increase of 2,126,187 pounds sterling, or about 33.98 per cent. The imports from Canada in the same periods were 21,009,975 pounds sterling in 1909 and 20,249,759 pounds sterling in 1908, thus showing an increase of 760,216 pounds sterling. Aeroplane Versua Cavalry The French military recently arranged a test to discover what effect would be produced on a troop of cavalry by the sudden apparition of an aeroplane immediately overhead. The horses were all but stampeded by the sight of the huge birdlike object and the frightful noise of the motor. Since then regular drills are had, designed to accustom horses to the aeroplane. Carnegie on Prodigality Andrew Carnegie, at one of his famous dinners in New York, talked about the prodigal and ostentatious expenditure of a certain type of New York millionaire. "He takes a Velasquez," said Mr. Carnegie, "and cuts it into three strips so that it will go on a screen. Paul Bourget told the world about that. And I heard the other day, another thing about him. "A gentleman was being shown over the $3,000,000 palace of one of these millionaires. The gentleman stopped before an enormous mirror and said: '"What a large and perfect glass! Pity it's scratched!' '"It is rather a pity,' said the millionaire carelessly, and,' turning to his major-domo, he said: "Don't let the children have any more diamonds ro play with, Maurice.'"���From the Wash: ington Star.

The Florence Russell Case The case of Florence Russell charged with having been drunk and disorderly came up before Magistrate Carss this morning, and was tried. Mr. Manson appeared for the Crown and Mr. Patmore for the accused. The evidence was very conflicting, and Magistrate Carss decided to dismiss the case. A further charge against accused of having run a disreputable resort was proceeded with. The woman Russell counter charged against police Sergt. Mehan, that unnecessary violence was used in her arrest, and Mr. Patmore pointed out that she was insufficiently clad when brought by night from Comox avenue to the Police Station. The thin silk kimono which was the sole garment worn by the woman according to her own statement was produced by her in court. The matter, Mr. Manson said, is one for the Police Commissioners to investigate.

Thursday, Sept. 1 THE TWO PREMIERS Instead of gnashing his teeth over the popu larity that Sir Wilfrid Laurier is winning in the West. Premier Richard McBride, of British Columbia, resolved to be happy and get into the procession. The thing that it is necessary for Conservatives to realize is that although Sir Wilfrid Laurier is not making partisan speeches, he is strengthening himself by his personal influence, and by identifying himself with the Western spirit and with national sentiment. The qualities that make him the favorite son of the West���if the word son may be used to describe a somewhat fatherly attitude. Now, there is in this situation some material for exasperation among our Conservative friends. But what is the use of being exasperated when you cannot turn your exasperation into fighting power? Premier McBride takes the wiser course. He will be non-partisan, too. He extracts from the older Premier this remarkable tribute: "He has furnished a striking illustration of the ametitiesy of public life.as understood in the cradle of party politics in the old land. I shall carry home and ever retain happy memories of this unprecedented and happiest experience of a long public life." But partyism aside, this is a remarkable meeting: the veteran Premier and the young one; the east and the west; the French-Canadian and the man who represents perhaps the most distinctly English of all the Provinces of Canada; the Province that is the gateway to the Orient. Quebec is rich in the memories of the past. British Columbia, while it has its history too, looks forward to a future in which it will vie with Ontario and Quebec and the Prairie Provinces for the leadership of the Dominion It is an occasion to lure away the fiercest partisan from his partisanship, to consider the opportunity and the destiny of the country that is the common heritage of all Canadians, and the tremendous responsibilities which that opportunity involves. ���Toronto Star, Liberal.

The bustling life of the new city of Prince Rupert was pictured yesterday for the entertainment and information of the people of the old country and with the hope of inducing them to take tours to this great Dominion seaport. The pictures are being made by Alfred G. Gosden, of London, England, who is sent out by the Allan Steamship company, the purpose being to show the films extensively and thus acquaint the people of the British islands with actual conditions here. Accompanying Mr. Gosden is Professor J. Milton State, of Liverpool, who is engaged to lecture with the exhibition of the pictures. The fact that such an extensive enterprise should have been undertaken shows the deep interest taken in the financial circles of Great Britain. It also shows the push and energy of the Allan line in looking out for tourist travel in this direction even in advance of any steps taken by the transcontinental railway company. Yet the latter is by no means behind, bu its enterprise is to provide . literature, well illustrated, for such purposes. There will arrive here in a few days a large party of artists, photographers and writers who will have made the long trip along the surveyed line from Edmonton, so this moving picture enterprise is but another form of advertising Prince Rupert to the world at large. The Allan kinetescope party is to pourtray a trip from the Allan line docks at Montreal to the wharves at Prince Rupert, incidentally taking in all the points of interest en route and showing the various industries in which the people are occupied, thus combining entertainment with reliable information of every kind pertaining to the country traversed. Yesterday the party took views of the principal streets and buildings, the wharves and so on. This part of the work was to have been completed today but the morning was not sufficiently bright for such work and it was postponed. Therefore, a trip was made to Georgetown in Mr. Peck's launch, the Mc- Culloch, Mr. Peck regretting that the gentlemen will not be able to see the large sawmills there in operation as much as the people of Prince Rupert must regret that the pictures here were not taken while the triumphal arches and decorations were up. But it is the aim to take such pictures under ordinary conditions. Views will also be made of the most beautiful points along the Skeena River and of the islands i djacent to this port. PERSONAL J71ius Levy has returned from a month's visit to Los Angeles and other southern cities. His health is much improved and his many friends are glad to see him back again. He is also glad to get back as the weather in the south in almost unbearably hot. While in Los Angeles Mr. Levy gave the Express of that city a report from Prince Rupert that will help some in boosting this town.

Peter Krivokapich appeared this morning in the County Court before Judge Young to explain why he had not paid various sums owed by him to certain of his fellow countrymen. In the witness box he protested fervently his intention to pay, but alas! he had not the wherewithal. He explained to the satisfaction of the Judge, however, that he had paid $400 towards an account of $448.85 against him by Geo. Raicheneich, and had been allowed an extension of the two months in which to pay the balance, the matter being in the hands of Messrs. Carss & Bennett. Another sum of $108.10 he owed to Marks Vackovitch, and Judge Young held this over until next court. A third amount, $37.85, Peter owed to R. Lahwrich, and this sum Judge Young ordered him to find within ten days. "Guess I got to go out and rustle for it," said Peter, and Judge Young recommended him to do so. The money was owed by Krivokapitch over contract work done by him, the men suing having worked for him. Krivokapich had used the cash paid him for the contract to square other debts, and cash owed him by others failed to come in though he had gone 100 miles up river, as he said, "to rustle for it." He owned claims on the American side, but hearing that he was a married amn, Judge Young was unwilling to force him to realize on his property immediately. "You are strong and able to work for this money," said the Judge. 'These other men to whom you owe it have worked for it and they ought to get it." Peter hurried out of court to begin "rustling" right away he said. Messrs. Williams & Manson acted for the pursuers. Connors Will Serve Six Months Robert Connors who was charged with having fired with intent to kill.at Victor Larsen of the North Pacific Cannery last Sunday, has been sentenced to Six months' imprisonment. Instead of putting in the time at New Westminster it is expected that Connors will sei've his sentence in Prince Rupert, the Magistrate having taken into consideration the prisoner's age and condition at the time the offence was committed.

From Annual Resume of Conditiona Made By Lord Strathcona The depression in trade which was experienced throughout the world in 1908 has now lifted, and the figures relating to the trade between Canada and Great Britain, which are given below, show that large increases have taken place both in imports from Canada and in exports to the Dominion. The total foreign and Colonial trade, of the United Kingdom in the calendar year 1909 was 1,003,119,961 pounds sterling as compared with 970,056,311 pounds sterling in 1908, an increase of of 33,062,650 pounds sterling. The total trade with Canada in the year 1909 was 29 424,609 pounds sterling as against 26,538,206 pounds sterling in 1908, an increase of 2,886,403 pounds sterling. The total exports from the United Kingdom to Canada in 1909 were 8,414,- 634 pounds sterling, compared with 6,288,447 pounds sterling in 1908, a very satisfactory increase of 2,126,187 pounds sterling, or about 33.98 per cent. The imports from Canada in the same periods were 21,009,975 pounds sterling in 1909 and 20,249,759 pounds sterling in 1908, thus showing an increase of 760,216 pounds sterling. Aeroplane Versus Cavalry The French military recently arranged a test to discover what effect would be produced on a troop of cavalry by the sudden apparition of an aeroplane immediately overhead. The horses were all but stampeded by the sight of the huge birdlike object and the frightful noise of the motor. Since then regular drills are had, designed to accustom horses to the aeroplane. Carnegie on Prodigality Andrew Carnegie, at one of his famous dinners in New York, talked about the prodigal and ostentatious expenditure of a certain type of New York millionaire. "He takes a Velasquez," said Mr. Carnegie, "and cuts it into three strips so that it will go on a screen. Paul Bourget told the world about that. And I heard the other day, another thing about him "A gentleman was being shown over the $3,000,000 palace of one of these millionaires. The gentleman stopped before an enormous mirror and said: "'What a large and perfect glass! Pity it's scratched!' "Tt is rather a pity,' said the millionaire carelessly, and, turning to his major-domo, he said: "Don't let the children have any more diamonds ro play with, Maurice.'"���From the Washington Star.

ROMANCE OF THE CAMOSUN HOW CEORGE NORRIS MANAGED TO TRAVEL FREE Had Plenty of Money When He Started But Camosun Bar Proved Too Attractive���Tried to Dump Him on Digby Ialand But Failed. No half-baked measures go in the Police Court, says the Vancouver Province. If you have a desire to qualify in the drunk class, then you've got to be drunk, but if you are drunk you get all that's coming to you. It's just, the same with a stowaway. To be a real stowaway in the eyes of the law, you've got to crawl down into the darkness of the No. 2 port coal bunker, or some other equally inaccessible place, where it can be proved against you that you secreted yourself. If you don't secrete you're not a stowaway; anyway, no real, self-respecting stowaway would think of travelling in the saloon. George Norris came down from Stewart to Vancouver on the steamer Camosun, and he didn't pay any fare past Prince Rupert. According to the advices brought to light in the Police Court yesterday, Norris had plenty of money to pay his way when he boarded the Union Company's steamer with a ticket from the near-metropolis on the Portland Canal to the near-railway terminus at the mouth of the Skeena River. The bar on the Camosun, however, had its attractions for George, and instead of a ticket to this thriving village he bought sundry and frequent allowances of booze, the result being a shortage of funds at Prince Rupert with which to purchase transportation to this point. As a consequence Norris was told to leave the craft at Digby Island, but George didn't do as he was told, and when the good ship Camosun warped out into the stream on her way south it was discovered that he was, like the poor, right on the. job It was too late to do anything with the carefree traveller, so he was told what would happen when he got to Vancouver, and it was let go at that, but the things expected by the ship's officers did not happen when Vancouver ultimately was reached. The first part of their programme was carried out to a nicety, for George was arrested and charged with having stowed away on the Camosun, but when it came to proving the case in court that was a different matter. His worship, donning the spectacles of the law, thought the matter over till this morning, but, he could not see how Norris was a stowaway when he did not stow away. He had traveled south Uke any other passenger, avoiding coal bunkers, dark holds and the like, and had, in no way attempt] ed to give the impression that he was a stowaway. Therefore it was explosion for the stowaway theory. The ship's officers had a perfect right to eject from the boat any passenger who couldn't pay his fare, and that was the only redress they had. At any rate the court could not see any way of convicting the alleged stowaway, and he was told to go away.

The Electric Lighting question was only briefly touched upon at last night's city council meeting, the principal business before the council being the consideration in committee and passing of by-laws. The following letter regarding the supplying of gas to the city by the T- simpeean Light and Power Co.. was read by the city clerk. ^ To the Mayor and Council onthe City of Prince Rupert. Re Tsimpsean Light and Power Co. Dear Sirs,���On behalf of the Tsimpsean Light and Power company I beg to submit herewith for your approval plans of tbe proposed location of the mains for conveying the gas from the proposed gas works of the Tsimpsean Light and Power company in Prince Rupert, to consumers. If you have any preference of the parts of the streets in which it is proposed to lay these mains I would like to have from you a statement of such preference so that they may be laid according to your desire. Kindly take this matter up and without delay, and notify me either that plans submitted are satisfactory to your body, or your preference with regard to location of these mains and pipes so that we may proceed at once with the undertaking. I might say on behalf of this company that the proper application under their charter was made to the chief commissioner of Public Works for the province before this city was incorporated, seeking for permission to proceed with the undertaking, and as to the approval of the laying of the gas mains in the streets, znd that the city commissioner with-held the consent required. We have on fyle this written refusal. You will con sequently understand that this company has done everything in its power as required by its charter. The size of the mains we propose to lay are six inch in diameter, high pressure weldled Mannesman pipes. Yours truly, L. W. PATMORE Mr. Brutinel the Tsimpsean Light and Power company's engineer was present when this letter was read. The letter was referred to the Streets, Works and Property committee for report on the motion of Aid. Barrow seconded by Aid. Mclntyre. Mr. Brutinel then withdrew from the city hall, and the council proceeded to other business. The plan of the city marked to show the position of the proposed gas mains and enclosed with Mr. Patmore's letter shows that the mains are intended to run through all the principal avenues of the city so as to distribute the gas to every section thoroughly. If your grocer does not handle the red "C" Fresh Eggs he's not first-class and you should change him. tf. GREAT CLEARING SALE Big Furniture Store Will Reduce Present Stock to Give More Room On Saturday will appear in the Optimist an announcement of F. Hart's first big clearing sale of house furnishings.

These Goods will go on Sale Wednesday Morning and will be run off as quickly as possible. The shipment is an exceptionally large one and comes direct from the factory in New York, consequently the prices will be the lowest ever seen in Prince Rupert. CALL EARLY AND GET THE FIRST CHOICE SIMON'S FAIR Third Ave. An Englishman's Word in Chile "There is a phase in Chile, 'Pallabra des Engles,' which means 'an Englishman's word,' and when two Chilians complete a bargain and wish to make it absolutely decisive they use this phase. No one in Chile ever uses this expression as referring to other European nations," says the Times South American Supplement. "A few Englishmen know that the independence of Chile is very largely due to the heroism and talents of Lord Dundonald, one of Nelson's captains, who trained the early Chilian navy and taught the men how to defeat the Spaniards. Chilians are not ungrateful to his memory, for one of the finest warships the 'Admiral Cochrane,' and no town in Chile is complete without its 'Calle Cochrane' as one of its chief streets.'
