starlling suggestion whieh is the great
topic of conversation in the West Indies,
ll was brought to Montreal today by
Mr. L. P.. McCauley, Dominion trade

Canada and Wesl Indies have entered
into reciprocal trade relations less than
a year ago the islands are realising how
much belter it would be for I hem lo
become part of the Dominion.
A gre.U meeting with (hi.; object in

people were present, and scenes ol great
enthusiasm were witnessed. Workmen

A band of about forty workmen
visited the sewer cuts on Fraser street

were working in these cuts at the .'17 1--

down iheir shovels, and did so without
any fuss. This sewer work is being done
by S. P. McMordie for the city. The
contractor receives 10 per cent on the
cost of the contract. Mr. McMordie,
it is said, had remarked yesterday thai
he intended to give the men on these
sewers 45 cents per hour, but lhe men

at Madison Square Garden, singing the
aria from "Sommanbulu" and "See the

success. A few months later, while
still in her teens, she journeyed to
Italy and settled in Milan to study
with San Giovanni, the most celebrated
teacher of that time, who re-christened
her "Nordica." In the following year,
she made a successful debut as Violetta,
the hapless heroine of "La Traviata,"
in Brescia, and this wits quickly followed
by similar successes in Milan nnd Genoa.
Her fame flew fast from the sunny
southland of song to thc exacting censors
of the great northern capital, St. Petersburg, and she was engaged for a season
there where her success was so marked
that she was immediately re-engaged
for a second season, a most unusual
occurrence. From that time, Mme.
Nordica's triumphs have been notable
und numerous.

"Believe in your own powers, be
patient und work, always work." These
few words might be taken us an epitome
of Lillian Nordica's belief and the secret
of her success.
Gifted with u wonderful voice und greut
personal beauty, she was also fortunate
enough to possess un enormous in-
dividuulity und the indomitable will and
perseverance of her New England ancestors.
Mme. Nordica's career is so well
known to all music lovers that it is
hardly necessary to go into details of
her early and severe struggles for
recognition. Her career iB an object
lesson to all students that, to nttnin
success, even though wonderfully endowed by nuture, hard work, patience
and persistence are yet needful.
"Pre-eminent over what poor glory
this world gives," says George Meredith,
"is that of the cantatrice," and Lillian
Nordica has reaped that glory in full
measure.
Born in the town of Farmington,
Maine, Lillian Norton comes of fine
old stock and is the granddaughter
of the famous revivalist, known in his
time as "Camp-meeting John Allen."
While still young, her parents moved
to Boston nnd she commenced the
study of singing in the New England
Conservatory.

Thia Artist la Alarmed
The question as to whether the
woman of today is losing her distinctively feminine figure owing to her increased
interest in masculine sports hus once
more lieen brought into prominence by
u statement made by Dr. Sargent, of
the Harvard gymnasium, on the "physical conformation of women."
Open air nnd athletic sports, more
rational dress and education more like
that of men," he Bays, "have caused
thc pronounced physical characteristics known as feminine to* diminish
and made the female figure more like
that of the male."
Mr. George Henry, A. R. A., the
well known artist, entirely agrees with
Dr. Sargent.
"Compured with women* of u gen
eration ugo," he says, "the women of
today look harder and stronger, their
figures ure struighter, and in many
cases their muscles are more developed. Judging from my own observation, women's arms are longer nnd
their hands bigger than they used to
be. Other physical characteristics are
a certain broadness across the shoulders,
slightly larger waists and flatter chests.
They have lost much of their graceful
lines and contours, und their manner
is often somewhat aggressive.
"One of the cuuses, to my mind, is
that women of today are often working and thinking for themselves. They
huve won more independi nee, ns the
suffrage agitation abundantly shows
Women's faces, us well as their figures,
seem to have undergone u chunge.
They are sterner, more purposeful and
strong. It is u sad thi g for art, and
I hope it is only a passing phase. It
must be remembered that the great
beauty and attraction of woman in the
eyes of man is that she is so entirely
different from him. It would be a terrible thing for woman to lose her natural
charm and grace.

What Will the Council Do?
The news that the workmen employed on the grading contracts have decided
by an enormous majority to go out on strike will be received with regret by the
citizens. It will email Buffering and loss on both sides, and in addition injure the
Welfare of a large number of persons not directly connected with either side.
For this calamity we have only the Council to thank.    With the exception:
of Alderman Pattullo and Mayor Munson, all of the successful candidate* gave
the men to understand that they were prepared to pass a by-law making the mini-
mum rate for labor on tl.e si reels, forty-live cents.
It is quite true as many nf the aldermen claim, that they had strings tin their
promises.   Hut language is to be understood by its calculated effect on the hearer.
No matter how craftily their replies were worded, they were calculated to make
the men believe lhat their demand woultl be granted, and in lhal belief the council!
was elected to ollice by the Ul votes of the workers.
ln fairness to Mr. Manson let il be said he made no promise other than that
lie would receive the men's demand and would give it his consideration. The
measure of his blame in the matter is only that when the matter did come up for
Consideration, be   was not present.   His presence might have saved the situation, i
How much wiser, how much more honest. how much better it would have:
been had the candidates like Frank Mobley preferred to have gone down to defeat
rather than go into the Council laden with pledges they had little expectation
of being able to lill.
Now that the Council have got us into this trouble.il is not asking too much
for them io get us out of it, or else get out themselves and let a stronger fibred
Council ileal with the situation.
The feeling of distrust which their conduct of the matter bred, has been greatly
increased by Alderman Newton's speech at the Skating Rink. If thai gentleman
spoke according to the facts, the Council in drawing up the resolution repeated
their pre-election programme, and aimed in drawing up the resolution to word it
so craftily that the citizens would be deceived. According to Alderman Newton
the resolution is only a blind to enable lhe council to grant the -15 cent rate without
letting the ratepayers who are opposed to the increase become aware of the fact.
It was because of this explanation the Industrial Workers moved their resolution
endorsing the Council's action.
Alderman Newton's speech has created the feeling in town that thc Council
are treating the ratepayers in the same way that they have ireatetl the men. Il
is certainly tlue the ratepayers a- well as the workingmen who elected the Council
lhat an official siaiemem be made informing the public whether Alderman Newton's explanation is correct or not.
In other words, the publie want to know who have been fooled, the ratepayers,
i he workingmen.   or both.

"The Interests" and the Tariff
Nt m York Sun)
To tin* philosophic mind all this discussion and concussion about reciprocity
between Canada antl the I'niled Stales recalls thai ancient antl wisest apologue
and moral dear to the old fashioned spelling book, of the gored ox. Stripped of
all waddings and paddings of philanthropy, public spirit, humanitarian theory,
the self-interest is naked to every eye. Reformers, insurgents, Revisionists, all
the solemn or passionate humbugs, not always conscious that have been strutting
up nnd down howling against "the Interests," now betray themselves as pari of
the supposed "interests," frankly mid pnilaceously fighting for their own hand
antl pocket. Nobody cares a rap for the consumers, if there consumers are. The
public and general Interests bo hanged The farming "interests," the i. 1 uu'
"interests," and so on SOjUaa] to the atari led heavens, fearing that a benevolenl
but temporarily misguided (iovernment is going to skimp ihe swill.
Without having to believe thai reciprocity is a sacred bull, like the heaven-
born tariff, whose eccentricities are tO be palliated by it; regarding reciprocity
indeed with something of lhal polite and humorous toleration which the judicious
and expert) need have had to bestow upon so many rainbow pots of goltl revealed
at Washington, can we salute without a grin the appearance ns Robber Huron.-*.
of humanity's last hope, tbe prop of our Institutions, the beloved, the down-trodden

Vancouver, March 1. -The Edrie, the I
American gasoline fishing schooner cap- j
Hired by H. M. C. S. Rainbow fishing
oil' Cape Scott is still in port here awaiting the result of the trial. She is a
gasoline schooner of 111 tons gross and ;
sixty tons net. She is owned by the
Chlopeck Fishing Company of Seattle,
and left the Sound on the morning of
February 9 for the northern fishing
grounds. When seized she had 2500
pounds of halibut beneath her hatches.
The officer:* of the Rainbow decline
to speak pending the trial. From other!
sources, however, it was learned that
when the Rainbow hove in sight last
Tuesday the Etlrie waa Ashing with-'
in lhe three-mile limit oil Cape Scott,
which is on the northwest coasl of
Vancouver Island. Her dories were
down, but as soon as she saw the cruiser j
an attempt was made to get the dories
inboard and three of them were hoisted
in. Gear to the value of $400 was \
cut away and the Edrie got moving.
The Rainbow hailed her and getting
no answer fired a blank cartridge across
j her bows, whereupon the schooner shut
J off her gasoline engines. Tha Rainbow
sent a party of blue-jackets aboard and
took the schooner in tow. On Tues-
j day night the cruiser and her tow-
anchored antl yesterday she came south.
"The   Etlrie  never  travelled  so  fast
before,"   remarked   a   fisherman.     "1
! thought   the   Rainbow  would   pull   her
I forecastle out."
Captain Danielson and his men de*
( elare that they were not in the three-j
| mile limit when seized and believe
that ihey can make oul a good case.
IPractically the whole crew is composed of Scandinavians and Germans
who   have   become   naturalized   Americans and they number twenty-three
which is un omen to the superstitious.
The Scandinavian-Americans were
much chagrined over the Rainbow's
action and their opinions were given
w ii h fluent, though broken, English.
"Vat does Canada vant with a navy?"
askiil one blonde fisherman na he stood
on the Etlrie's poop.    "I can't see vy ,
she   vants   sheep*   like   das   Rainbow,!
ain't it?"
"Vy didn't she give the old (-oondry j
a big sheep instead of buying a Iodic
thing like those.   It ain't no goot."

Police Are Trying to Find Out More
About the Robbery on the Princeaa
Beatrice Five Sacka Were Opened
and Contenta Stolen.
(Bpodal lo ilu- Optimist)
Vancouver. Maich 2. li the police
have any clue lo the robbery of goltl
dusl and registered mail on the Princess
Beatrice they an- hiding it. They still
profess to be without any clue to the
mysterious affair.
It has leaked out that it was the
registered mail from I'rince Rupert
that was tampered with. One big sack,
containing four smaller sucks were
put on board the boat. It was not until
the vessel's arrival that the discovery
was made that the big sack hatl been
BUI open at the siring wit html breaking
the seal. Investigation showed that
the four smaller sacks hatl ull been
neatly slit with a sharp knife and thc
contents extracted, 'lhe value of the
loss on the registered mail is given al
11,000.
It is nol known whether the robbery
took place al  Prince Rupert before the
vessel   left,   or  whether  it   took   place
while  the   vessel   wis  on   her
soulh.
Horaea Will be High Priced
There  is  every   indication   that  th
coining   summer   w'll   see   a   notable
scarcity of horse* in this tlistrict.    Al-1
ready  many  buying orders  have  been
received from men who will require I
saddle antl pack animals, and the
prices at which sales have been made
seem to warrant the prediction ot a
local horesinan lhal prices next summer
will be higher thun ever before. There
will be a large influx of prospectors
anil others who will require horses to
carry themselves and their supplies
into the hills, making a good market
for the ordinary cayuse, while the
rapid settlement of the country brings
with it a demand for heavier animals
for use in ranch work. The railway
contractors will require a groat many
un ni .Is of u still heavier class, bo that
thc demand for all sorts and conditions
of horses will be in excess of the local
supply.   -Omineca Herald, Hazelton.

sque Lansuage V/as Used.
Washington, Feb. 28.--Mr. Macon of
Irn-jjaa, npeaking in ths general de-
... 0n the naval appropriation bill
the House tonight, made an attack
Captain Robert E. Peary, denounc-
t hjm as n "faker" and declaring
U he "should be driven from the
val service."
friu* bitter words used by Mr. Mn-
k called out a quick reply from Cap-
n Peary's friends, Mr. Moore of
hnsylvania, after vainly attempting
interrupt Mr. Macon, finally char-
tented Mr. Macon's speech as "un-
jt, outrageous and oflenrive."
[���Heroes like theee," said Mr. Moore,
tve nol time to stop and deal with
pry dog that barks at their heels."
Mr. Macon who evoked laughter in
��� House several days ago by nn-
Dnclng that in usini* the language

llin-r of words and contemptible
He us" he bad gone about as far as
> "fellowship with the Methodist
lurch permitted," added some new

He declared that Peary's whole story
. "fake, pure and simple." He
id his contempt for "fake heroes"
Mipri'ini'. and he intimated that he
"the hero of San Juan Hill' in

wry Arctic club and charged that il
id maintained a paid lobby in Wash-
flxm. Hi *.iid that President Taft's
IgnwM In i his matter was not ar-
ptnl. for he had congratulated Cook
heutily si be did Peary.
��� ������ compliments to the edi-
tt of lhe New York Times and the
n York Evening Post, Mr. Macon
���racterited them  as  "unblushing,
piiu-.ill lit-bita" and "pea-eyed, pineh-
and putrid-iongued infinitesimals."
li referred tn Peary as a "fur trader,"
Icturnl  him   as   "a   ltlf-aiMg***l**H*>dl

pi Dually denounced him as "an un-
f .mt and an idle loafer, who
piiht  m  Im*  driven   from   the   service
jn        being promoted."
Mr. Macon expressed the belief that
Vary and Cook, on one of the trips
north, when they were companions, fig I
ured out. that it would be easy for a i
man to fake a discovery of the pole, j
and lu charged that they both started'
out ui tile some time to "make the dis-|
covery." He declared that, Instead of
being rewarded with promotion to the!
rank of rear-admiral, as President Taft
and the committee on naval affairs had
recommended Peary's feat was best
worth a medal like those awarded to
Marathon runners.
WORKINGMEN DECIDE ON STRIKE

understanding ihat they would board
at this house. Last night ihey were
allowed to sleep in the house, but this
morning they were told there was no
breakfast for them unless they gm to
work. Gurvitch owes his men some
wages but they were not paid. There
were Ugly links end some muttered
threats f.-r the contractor Irom the
breakfastliss then, but they refrained
from violence. Two members of the
workers' committee went lo (lurvilch
wiih the direct questions "Did you
refuse these men breakfast?" and "Have
you paid them?" To each question he
replied "No."
Over Two Hundred Out
Il is rumored that S. P, McMordie
has already sent down below for men,
but there is no direct confirmation of
this at the lime of writing. The contractor said this morning that il was his
intention to lie low and lei the all air
take its course for a while.
According lo the workers' estimate
well over iwo hundred men are out
lliii morning in actual strike. More
are affected by the want of the strikers'
work, and still more will be laid "II when
the available material for retaining

From a reliable source it has just
been learned thut S. P. McMordie
has wired down below for one hundred
men, and thai twenty-five of them are
expected to arrive by the Camdkun

There is a eection of the workers
who do not want to lay off just now,
and theee men are ready, it is believed,
to lake up station work which is not

An Old London Legend
The church in Woburn square, London, is said to occupy the site of the
"Field of Forty Footsteps," to which n
tragic legend attaches. The story dates
from the days of Monmouth's rebellion.
According to the version given in Mr.
J. S. Oglivy's "Relics and Memorials of
London Town," two brothers fell in love
with a woman who, either from callous
vanity or fearing reprisals from the unsuccessful suitor, would not say which
was to be the favored swain, suggesting
that they should light a duel, and to
the victor she would give her charms.
They came from the town to this suburban field. The woman calmly sat down
to await events. She had not long to
wait, judging from the number of
footprints, when one of the brothers
fell dead, and as the victor approached
she held out her arms to greet him,
when, with a sudden revulsion of feeling
for his brother's death, hc slew her as
she stood, and, turning the weapon, he
drove it through his own heart. So they
were found stiff in death with the
footprints stamped in thc wet clay,
where they remained stamped through
summer heat and winter frost; no green
thing would grow nor any man build
himself S dwelling there. Streets were
erected all round, but it was not until
the nineteenth century that men look
heart of grace and built a church there,
when the consecration of the ground
rolled back the curse und the memory
of the legend grew faint and faded away.
Work Begun on American Boy
The Harris brothers and Jack Mullan
have resumed work on the American
Boy group, on Four-mile hill. The
work done on this property after its
discovery last fall consisited mainly of
stripping nnd open cuts, which disclosed several veins of excellent galena,
averaging, in several samples, over $'.i(l
a ton. Sinking on several of the showings will now be undertaken, and the
progress of work on this most promisin;
property will bo watched with great
interest by the mining men of the district.   Omineca Herald.

An Old London Legend
The church in Woburn siiuure, London, is said to occupy the site of the
"Field of Forty Footste|rs," to which a
trut;ic legend attaches. The story' dates
from the days of Monmouth's rebellion.
According; to the version given in Mr.
J. S. Oglivy's "Relics and Memorials of
London Town," two brothers fell in love
with u woman who, either from callous
vanity or feuring reprisuls from ihe unsuccessful suitor, would not  say whieh
wus to be the favored swain, suggesting
thut they should light u duel, und to
the victor she would give her churms.
They cume from the town lo this suhur-
ban held. The womun calmly sat down
to smalt events. She hud not long to
wait, judging from the number of
footprints, when one of the brothers
fell deud, and as the victor approuehed
she held out her arms to greet him,
when, with a sudden revulsion of feeling
for his hrother's death, hc slew her us
she stood, und, turning the weapon, he
drove it through his own heart. So they
were found stiff in death with the
footprints stumped in thc wet clay,
where they remained stamped through
summer heat and winter frost; no green
thing would grow nor any man build
himself B dwelling there. Streets were
erected ull round, but it wus not until
the nineteenth century that men took
heart of gruce und built u church there,
when the consecration of the ground
rolled buck the curse und thi; memory
of the legend grew faint and fuded uway.
Work Begun on American Boy
Thc Harris brothers und Jack Mullan
huve resumed work on the American
Hoy group, on Four-mile hill. The
work done on this property after its
discovery last fall consisited mainly of
stripping and open cuts, which disclosed sevend veins of excellent gulena,
averaging, in several samples, over $!I0
u ton. Sinking on scvcml of the showings will now be undertaken, Bad the
progress of work on this most promisin;
property will be wntched wilh great
interest by the mining men of the district.���Omineca Herald.

III the new General Hospital the
patients admitted to date number a
dozen. At the meeting of the Hospital
Hoard yesterday the matron made
application for another nurse. The
matter will be attended to the by
House Committee. Applications by-
Doctors Kernin and Eggert for special
terms for patients sent in by them and
by the G. T. P. were considered. A
letter from Muyor Manson to the
effect that thp contract system for
doctors was not used in Victoriu was
read, and il was agreed that no reduction on the present rate of $1*1 per week
for nursing und hospital accommodation could be considered just now.
Mayor Manson also wrote that it
will be necessary for the Secretary
of the Board to make formal application
for the I'rince Rupert General Hospital
to be recoitnised under the Hospital
Aid Act of 1902. This will be attended
to.
Doctors  to Take Turns
Ail arraiiKcment ���������> to be made by
lhe Medical Association, it is understood, by which the doctors will take
each one month in turn to act as visiting
medical attendant to the hospital.
Patients under treatment by their own
doctors, will of course, bc all ended lo
by those doctors. The visitint* medical
attendant will sea to patients who have
not their own doctors, accident cases,
etc. The matter of payment for such
medical services is being settled by
the House Committee. While all patients treated in the hospitul will be
expected to puy for treatment, the
Hoard realises i hut in cases where the
patient cannot pay the cost will have
to lie met by the Board.
Waiting for Funds
The matron was anxious that the
o-icruting room should lie equip|>ed
ut once if possible, but in the opinion
of Mr. D. G. Stewart, President ol the
Hoard, t*Ais mutter hnd better wait
until the finances ure u little stronger.
Messrs. Munro & I.uiley, architects,
submitted their account for services
in the erection of the building, und
this was referred to the Finance Committee. The committee in charge of
the John Houston Fund uwitit the
uccount to be rendered them for the
furnishing of the John Houston Memor
ial  Wartl,  the  expense of which  they
are to bear.
Furnishings for the resident assistant
secretary's ollice have been secured
by the President of the Board at a
"snap" price, $75, for the quality of
the furnishings, which were bought
second-hand.
New Secretary Attends
The new Assistant Secretary, Mr.
William Wright, was in attendance,
and arrangements were made for the
Installation to his new duties by Mr.
Cuthbert and the House Committee.
An important part of his duty will be
the payment by cheque of the hospital
staff salaries on the fifth day of each
month, or the following day if the
lifth should fall on Sunday.
Generous Friends Thanked
A cordial vote of thanks was moved
to the Ladies' Auxiliary for their successful organisation" of the Opening
Ceremony, and for their enthusiastic
work for thc hospiatl. The Ladies'
Auxiliary asked lhat the cost of moving
the piano used al the opening, $10, be
borne by the Board. This was the only
item in connection with the opening
which they did not meet. Mr. P. 1.
Pain ������ . who had lent the piano, wished
lo delruy this $10 himself, but the
president had discovered lhat Mr.
Palmer hud been, besides his generous
public . [stance to ihe h spital, sur-
reptiously standing good for a supply
of table cutlery, etc., and other little
necessary ilems which run away with
dollars, and would not hear of Mr.
Palmer's hearing tiiis further expense.

CAUGHT AND PUNISHED
Sergeant Phillipaon's Services During the Chief'8 Absence to Be Remunerated at Same Rate per
Month as Chief.
At three o'clock yesterday afternoon
the police commissioners met in Ihe
City Hall. Commissioners Kirkpalrick
and Stephens were present with City
Clerk Woods Secretary to the Commission. Chief McCarvell attended to present
his report of police affairs for the month
of February. There was the usual list
of minor offences with its harvest of
fines. Two more serious cases were
listed, those of the boy Murray whom
Judge Young sent south to learn a trade,
and of the man Tim O'Brien who confessed to the murder of a negro in the
States, and was taken south by Chief
Elkins. The Chief's report was approved.
Thirty-five dollars remain of the sum
of $100 placed last month at the disposal of the Chief of Police for the purpose of discovering evaders of the liquor
law. Commissioner Stephens wus of
opinion that a further grant need not
be made until actually required by tho
Chief.
During the absence of Chief McCarvell Sergeant l'hillipson took charge,
and as the Sergeant performed efficiently
the duties and undertook the entire
responsibility for lhe time, Commissioner
Stephens moved that he be remunerated
for the time he was in charge at the
same rate as the Chief. For the eleven
days of the Chief's absence accordingly,
Sergeant l'hillipson will be paid at the
rate of $150 per month.
Commissioner Stephens remarked on
the manner in which after having been
delected  at  some expense to the city,
evaders  of  the  liquor   law   frequently
"skipped out."   Commissioner Stephens
said that these men ought to be held
1 and   made  an  example of.    "We  can
| never rid the city thoroughly of blind
! pigs ils long as this skipping out system
is tolerated," he said.
The commission udjourned to meet
uguin on Monduy, April 3rd.
