Mobley and Aid. Pattullo got together this morning and prepared a report for the Water and Fire Committee to present at to-night's meeting of the Council. Speaking at Winnipeg last week, General Manager Chamberlain, of the Grand Trunk Pacific, after an absence of about four weeks, having visited Prince Rupert, Vancouver, Victoria, Seattle and Edmonton, said: "Track laying on the mountain division out of Prince Rupert has been commenced and we expect to have 100 miles completed by the end of July, which will take us to Copper river, and we hope to have the track to Hazelton about November 1. Work on the balance of the line to Alcermere is progressing rapidly. Our three steamers, Prince Rupert, Prince George and Prince Albert, are now on the way to the Pacific Coast, coming around Cape Horn. The Prince Rupert and Prince George are intended to run between Seattle, Victoria, Vancouver and Prince Rupert and the Prince Albert, which is a smaller boat, will be placed in the Prince Rupert- Queen Charlotte Islands service. The change that has taken place at Prince Rupert since my last visit there in August is most remarkable. All classes of business are represented and work has recently been commenced on a large fish plant. It is claimed the population is 5,000. Great activity prevails on the Pacific coast, and everything indicates prosperity. I see no reason why these conditions should not continue. 'We are making good progress with ballasting on the line west of Edmonton. The piers of the McLeod River bridge are now in, and the bridge erection will be commenced in a day or two. We should get across this bridge early in July, when the track will be To Repair Ska gway Wharf. Moore's wharf at Skagway, which, with its approach, is five-eights of a mile in length, is to be repaired at an expense of $5,000.

Davis, at present city engineer of Berlin, Ont., was appointed the permanent engineer for Prince Rupert at a salary of $5,000 per year. This action was taken by the council at its meeting last night upon the recommendation of the Streets committee. Mr. Davis is one of the best municipal engineers in the Dominion and that is why he was selected. On behalf of the Streets, Works and Property committee, Aid. Lynch reported to the council. The committee purchased material and tools for repairs to the roads and have strarted work. Mr. Clements was recommended as temporary engineer at a salary of $200 per month He is well qualified and there are a number of things which he must attend to at once, including the levels of the water in Woodworth Lake. They also recommended A. W. 1 Agnew as assistant. In connection with a permanent I engineer, they named three men as capable, in particular, W. M. Davis, I engineer of the city of Berlin, Ont., at a salary of $5,000 per annum. The estimate for expenditure for the | balance of the year was:��� City Hall, etc $11,000 Maintenance of streets $20,000 Recommended that the government be asked to convey to the city a site for a city hall.

In connection with the report of the Streets committee which recommend- i d Mr. Davis as City engineer, ! and two others as a second choice, I a motion was passed by the Aldermen appointing Mr. Davis as permanent engineer for Prince Rupert at a salary of $5,000 per annum.

Word has reached the city from some of the local parties who left two or throe weeks ago to prospect and to develop previously located claims in the Ellis Arm district. Everyone up there is very optimistic and that country promises to rival Stewart. Not only did many local men go prospecting, but a large number of those who went to Stewart and who have been working In that locality, are hitting the trails over mountains for tbe new and more promising territory. ! John McGrath is now doing assessment work on his claims which were recently bonded for a good figure, lie has two of the most promising propositions in the district. Jones and Strangland, two well known men, have discovered and are opening up some promising property. There are now over 40 men at Ellis Arm and their number is being added to every day. Logan and a party of prospectors have gone in on the Naas looking for mineral. It is reported that they had no trouble with the Indians and that the hostility of the natives is not nearly so bad as one would be lead to believe. C. D.

We all chipped in in the hope and expectation that if we were snuffed out by either sickness or accident, the neighbors would do as much for us. Life insurance avoids the uncertainty of leaving things to neighbors. It is a business plan, founded on laws of mathematics and sound economy, to provide for those dependent on us in case of death. Life insurance is no longer a charity, or quasialtruism, any more than fire insurance is. Life insurance is a duty and a privilege. To eliminate the distressing results of death, through insurance, payable to business partners, wife, or children, seems but common prudence. Lord Nelson in his will left his wife and daughter "to the tender care of the British Nation, to which I have given my life." And the wife and daughter- gravitated to the Poor House; for what is everybody's business is nobody's business. Don't leave your loved ones to the care of the public or the neighbors. The neighbors may have troubles of their own. Cut out the risk and worry by insuring in the Sun Life of Canada The cost is nominal; the results phenomenal. Let us talk the matter over with you. F. B.

He states that;|his company purposes bringing over a",machinery plant that will employ about five thousand men. He has visited jail th.? large cities of the East that possess good transportation facilities, and states that he will visit Prince Rupert before coming to a decision. He will probably start for the north next week. Clyde Steamer Sunk by a German Wind Jammer. (Special to The Optimist) London, May 26���Twenty-two seamen were drowned in the English Channel yesterday by the collision of the Clyde steamer Kerry Moore with the German four-masted ship J. K. Vinnen. In the fog the sailing ship rammed into the steamer, tearing right through her amidships. The Kerry Moore immediately sunk with all on board. The Vinnen was badly broken up about the bows but managed to make the Fairway and was towed into" Portsmouth harbor. Off Cowes on the Isle of Wight one of the seamen of the Kerry Moore was picked up. The officers of the sailing vessel claim that she was on her true course at the time of the collision and had the right of way. The Cottage City brought nearly twenty-five tons of perishables, principally vegetables and fruits, for this city, and also had a good list of passengers. The Rupert City brought in about fifty passengers and among those who left for Vancouver were: H. Rivet, Father Bunoz. Miss Dudgeon, E. , H. Robinson, Mr. & Mrs. A. J. Young. Mr. & Mrs. R. Belle, A.

The racers just in the rear have been arrested on suspicion. (Special to the Optimist.) Manila, May 26. -The immense dock Dewey, the largest dry-dock in the world, sank last night in 70 feet of water. A preliminary investigation shows that it was from no fault of construction but because the valves had ���been left open through carelessness. All the costly machinery of the huge structure is said to have been ruined. Whether the dock can be raised and again floated is a great engineering problem. Considering the enormous expense of towing the structure from the construction yards in Philadelphia all around the Hum, there is a probability that raising it will be attempted.

THE PRINCE RUPERT OPTIMIST Williams and Manson CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 iranMr to take them up, or whether ni better to emply Mr. Cuthbert for le balance of the year. At the suggestion of Aid. Lynch it ��as decided to look into the provision lf the city charter before acting on the matter. CitizenB Option. Aid. Pattullo introduced the question [ the option some of the citizens took upon the rights of Woodworth and Coote on the Woodworth lake. The citizens put up $1,000 and agreed to pay $30,000 [or the rights, if the city council deemed it advisable to purchase. The option was pod until August 1st next. The company claimed to have rights iver 8000 inches of water in Woodworth nd Shawatlans lakes and tributary iireams. In connection with the above Aid. Pattullo stated that Mr. Woodworth positive that their rights were correct and that the government reservation of 300 inches was on Shawatlans lake and not on Woodworth lake, an Ihe latter was what the city needed, as it was higher. The alderman did not think that 300 inches was sufficient for icity of the size Prince Rupert would be. Aid. Mobley submitted a letter from Mr. Tatlow dealing with the reservation. He added that it was necessary tor the city to show that Woodworth was the only suitable source of supply for the city. He did not think the city would have any difficulty in proving its position, and that was why he asked for two engineers to report on the matter. Aid. Pattullo stated that there was a big legal question involved and it would have to be fought out by lawyers. Aid. Mobley said that according to an engineer's figures 300 inches was lulticient water for a population of B2.000 people. If the government gave khe water to the city any legal battle (allowing would be between the government and Woodworth and Coote. Aid. Hilditch proposed that the discussion be deferred until the special meeting. Aid. Pattullo still contended that the legal fight would be between the city and The company. He thought that the city Would get full control of all the waters p paying Woodworth and Coote $30, N, although he would pay it very re- [uctantly, The matter was adjourned Thursday night at 8 o'clock. until SIXTY DOLLAR PANS.

Colter, president and managing director of the Prince Rupert Savings and Trust Company, Ltd., came in on the Princess Beatrice and is staying at the Grand Trunk Inn. During the week he has made a thorough canvas of the business men, including the mayor and new aldermen, and is enthusiastic in regard to the business outlook. Mr. Colter said this morning: "My company was incorporated about a year ago and while the head office will be in Vancouver, we hope, as the name implies, to do our principal business here, and in the country tributary to it. We have an authorized capital of $300,000 and in addition have made arrangements for a big trust fund to work on in the shape of .loans and so forth. "We are prepared to open up in Prince Rupert as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made, and from time to time shall open up new branches at new towns. We have men now at Fort George, for instance, and I am going to take a look at Stewart. For the operation of our main office in this city we shall have an advisory board of six or seven of your leading business men, who will control affairs subject to the board of directors in Vancouver. "I am much impressed with Prince Rupert and I think you have a good hustling city council. In fact I find your business men imbued with what you will excuse me for calling a "Seattle spirit". I am a Canadian, but obtained my financial training on the other side. I like your newspaper, and especially its title. Optimism and common sense work wonders. I am confident my company will do a large business here." PORTLAND CANAL STOCKS. Latest Quotations From Vancouver Exchange. (As reported by S. Harrison & Co.)
