All that can be said in reference to the strike situation today, is thai the miners are optimistic regarding the putcome, and the city is beginning to f<el the effects of the tie up. Railways are making preparations tit their divisional points to lay in big supplies i>( coal. Today tho resignation is announced of James Ashworth, manager of tie (row's Nest company. His place is takm hy W. It. Wilson <>f Toronto who w:is manager previous to 1902. Up at Seal Cove yesterday afternoon a baiTOW load of concrete was poured into a long stretch of wooden frame work. It wits a simple operation yet it marked an epoch in the history ol I'rince Rupert antl of Canada, for it meant that the first concrete hail been planted lor the foundation of the largi*t and most up to date cold storage and freezing plant in tho world. To witness this Interesting ceremony, Mayor Manson, M. I'. I'., some members of the ciiy council, olher visitors antl newspaper men were invited hy Mr. George L. Clayton, the architect and engineer for the Canadian Kish and (old Storage I '���., of British t ulumbiu, the company that is building the plant. Hy March l!>lli this gigantic concern will he ready for business. And what a bin business it will he and what a good thing it will mean for the city. Ten million pounds of lish can he stored iu that building wiih a 1,200 feet frontage. Fifty tons of lish can bo frozen every day. Twenty-live tons of ice can be manufactured every day. The cost of equipping and building th' plant will he over *:|50,UU0. Local Waters Will Supply Fish There are enough lish in the waters at the very di or of the plant to supply the cities of a dozen continents. The company's own fleet of boats will harvest the waters. Individual li.-her- men will lind a market there for their catches, providing these individuals are while men antl Indians. Japs are barred from ihe market. The plant will give employment to aliout 500 people. Tin building will he of reinforced concrete, absolutely fireproof. Twenty car.- of insulated cork will he u ed in the walls for the purpose of keeping out heat. Markcta Will Benefit When thi'- business is working it means that lish will be put on the Eastern markets from om to two weeks earlier than heretofore. The boats of the company will go out into the neighboring waters in the morning anil return with a load in the evening. It can he frozen in a very .���.hurt time, put in cars and shipped on lhe (I. T. I', to all points. In other cities along,he l'acilic Coast, where Ashing is a great factor, lug boats go mn antl tl�� not return for severs! days its they have to go such long I distance to get big hauls of lish, consequently the Intervals between ihe supplies going to the markets are li ngtby, for. after th.' fish is brought in, lew plants are able to pn pan it for i sport very quickly.

WASHING FRAGILE WARE Simple Precautions Save Annoying Losses of Pretty China Vancouver Victoria AND Seattle _\*m lPACtt�� NFORMATION ���BUREAU Valuable china requires special treatment to be safely washed. Try this way. A wooden tub should be lined with a soft cloth, pearl ash dissolved in warm water, and the best antique cups and saucers, vases and plates washed carefully in it. A pastry* brush should always be kept, with which to work out .dust which has collected in the crevices of china figures, while, after draining the china on a wooden board it is dried with a soft cloth and then polished with a silk handkerchief. Putty to clean antique glass and wet whiting for pewter are two other secrets of a successful cleaning day. For the insides of decanters and bottles nothing is better than to soap small pieces of blotting paper and fill each bottle with them, adding water to reach half way up, and then shake energetically until the contents froth.

SLEVES UP TO DATE Parisian Expert Suggests Improvements in This Season's Styles Sleeves continue to follow the present ] lines. That is, bodice and sleeve are cut all in one, without a seam at the armhole. This fashion lends itself charmingly to the present manner of trimming in long lines, and the bodices this season are prettier and more youthful than seen in many years. However, one cannot say the (tame for the lower edge of the sleeve. Never was anything uglier than the present style, that is neither short enough to display the curve of the forearm nor long enough to reach the waist. The absolutely loose, un- gathered sleeve end hangs half way between elbow and hand in a meaningless manner, as if the dresjmaker had forgotten to do something with it. IF HANDED A LEMON Simply Smile and Put It to Work at Once Fruit-stained hands become white and soft when washed with lemon juice. To remove rust, ink, and mildew marks from white garments, nothing is better than salt and the juice of a lemon.

The animals were very' tame, And never very big; But the favorite of all, Was the little doughnut pig. Oh, that little doughnut pig Was not so very big: But he was fat and plump and sweet, And oh, so very good to eat His eyes were made of allspice, And his tail of twisted defugh, His ears were quite ungainly, And his legs were thus and so. But when all fried and nicely dried, And sugared o'er and o'er, Those funny ears and legs Endeared him more and more".

A ch;.rKe of fifty cents or a dollar could be made for the license, antl this woultl bring in no small revenue, ar.d that, too, from the consumer und not thrtmuli any middle man. An age limit could be set to purchasers of licenses, antl the pld principle of an Indian list could be maintained by enabling friends and relatives under existing conditions to have a license refused. A novel suggest ion has just been made by a Toronto minister, Rev. G. M. Brewin, The proposal is ihat no man should be entitled to purchase liquor Bt a bar unless he has lirst secured a license to drink. His idea is that fit and proper persons should be furnished with a card certificate to be produced when ordering a drink. Rev. Mr. Brewin'a Idea He says: "If a man wishes to use litiuor make him obtain a license to do so. This license woultl take (he form of a small plate or card and be good for one year. A man going into a bar would have to show his license before he coultl be served. "If a man is summoned for drunkenness the Magistrate could suspend his license for such lime as he saw A Simple Scheme, But��� "It is a simple scheme, but with many self-evident advantages.

The Fruit-Growers' Turn at Last After having been held up as the one ewe lamb of the anti-reciprocity party in Canada, it seems unkind of the fruit growers to jump over the traces. Yet such is the situation in the Niagara district, and for reasons which apply equally to the fruit growers of British Columbia. It has dawned on the Niagara fruit growers that for forty years they have been taking produce to the American market in face cf the tariff, and never a load j of American produce has come into their territory save in the case of early fruits which ripen before the Niagara fruit. In those forty years they have paid uncountable sums in tolls, the American buyers patrolling the county of Welland on the lookout for fruits and vegetables. Under the satirical heading of "The suffering will be general," Mr. E. Morden, proprietor of the Niagara Falls Nurseries, and one of the largest growers of choice fruits and nursery stock, has published a circular from which we cull the following sentences: "The Southern grower, with the increased demand, will suffer from overwork and increased Bank Deposits. "The Southern consumer will lie tempted to consume a much greater variety of Fruits and Vegetables for a much longer jieriod than heretofore. "The Canadian grower, under the stress of a greatly increased demand, will bc forced to employ more labor to produce more Fruit and more Vegetables to reach Many Millions on a sure market where there is no local competition, and where the City man and the Country man are alike benefitted. "The Canadian consumer, while privileged to enjoy locally-grown fresh fruits and vegetables to the fullest extent, will also be enabled to secure, at economical rates, early Fruits and Vegetables, much in advance of the local supply." Kelly, who ^^^^^^^^^^^ part of bust year, has been signed to manage the Regina team in the Twilight League. Kelly came here from Arizona, where he had located after purchasing his own release from Fort Wayne. Hp had We repre-! played several years in the Three I ~ impan- League, and gained the reputation o being one cf the best base runners in the minor leagues. He is equally good in the outfield and infield, and usually hits the ball at a .250 clip.

A telegram sent to Toronto by Sir Wilfrid Laurier reads as follows: "We have not hurt the manufacturer, and we will not do so. We have benefitted the farmet and the consumer. When the time comes we will sweep the country from the Atlantic to the Pacific." There is optimism for you. A spirit such as that spells success. An "ami-knocking" club has been formed in Trenton, N. J. Its object is as might be supposed, to oppose knocking individuals, for among the resolutions is one that no member will ever say anything about any person of an injurious nature, whether true or untrue. This is pretty far-reaching. The method of keeping the members faithful to their pledges is by a fine of $5 for the first offence if a satisfactory explanation is not furnished, $10 for the second offence, and expul sion for the third. ...WANTED...

April 5. ���By the explosion of a pot of molten metal in the Beauchemin Foundry yeaterday afternoon five employees of the firm were terrihly burned. Three of them are not expected to recover. Do you realize that every train of the G. T. P. R. R. will be ��� a flying advertisement for our city? The letters stand for "Go To Prince Rupert Road" -that's plain. The Grand Trunk chose its name well and we are duly grateful. Just now the Grand Trunk is making Prince Rupert but it will not be long before Prince Rupert will make thc Grand Trunk Pacific. A modern railroad is a wonderful institution. Railroad building today is not a gamble, it is a science. A railroad that would just make a town its terminus just for the sake of making a town would be committing suicide. It would be flirting with the undertaker, as my friend Sheriff Small used to say back in Missouri. A railroad chooses its terminus for the trade it can get there, for the freight it can bring there and take away from there. So you sec thc railroad knew exactly what it was doing when it chose Prince Rupert. We Know that many excellent engineers, many of the ablest business men, many largo capitalists compose the railroad, and we know that their collective judgment must be good or they would not be able engineers, able business men or able capitalists. They selected Prince Rupert. You or I cannot have better judgment in the matter than they did. That's our cue to profit by their judgment. Stick with Prince Rupert and tell your friends about it. If you don't know what to tell them about Prince Rupert ask me and I'll tell you what to say. Also I shall give you my book of Questions and Answers on Prince Rupert. You can either send that or copy it. It is easier to Bend it or I'll send it for you. If vou and I keep on getting busy with telling the outsiders about Prince Rupert, it will not be long before we will nave twenty- five thousand inhabitants, then fifty and then my prophecy, "The San Francisco of Canada.

Yesterday Mr. A. J. Morris, president of the Hoard of Trade of this city, received a letter from Mr. ti. Lecarpi -ntier, M. A��� of Paris, France, and professor in economics. The letter reads: "Dear Sir, -I have just completed an article on Canadian Porta of Commerce On the Atlantic Seaboard for the European Review of International Economics, The same publication wants an article on Canadian Ports of Commerce on the l'acilic Ocean. For this purpose 1 shall be glad lo be furnished with Information and statistics of the port of I'rince Kupert. I should like to get all the commercial and navigation statistics possible with a map of the harbor, list of dues, etc. I shall receive any Information With pleasure." Mr. Morris is going to send at once what Mr. Lecurpeiitier desires. Then' is no doubt that an article about I'rince Rupert In such an important and widely read publication as the Review of International Economics will be one of the best advertisements the city can get. It may bu rather surprising to many citizens to know that last year over 2,000 steamships called here, many of them of Iarj;e tonnage.

Wednesday, April 5 The Fruit-Growers' Turn at Last After having been held up as the one ewe lamb of the anti-reciprocity party in Canada, it seems unkind of the fruit growers to jump over the traces. Yet such is the situation in the Niagara district, and for reasons which apply equally to the fruit growers of British Columbia. It has dawned on the Niagara fruit growers that for forty years they have been taking produce to the American market in face of the tariff, and never a load of American produce has come into their territory save in the case of early fruits which ripen before the Niagara fruit. In those forty years they have paid uncountable sums in tolls, the American buyers patrolling the county of Welland on the lookout for fruits and vegetables. Under the satirical heading of "The suffering will be general," Mr. E. Morden, proprietor of the Niagara Falls Nurseries, and one of the largest growers of choice fruits and nursery stock, has published a circular from which we cull the following sentences: "The Southern grower, with the increased demand, will suffer from overwork and increased Bank Deposits. "The Southern consumer will be tempted to consume a much greater variety of Fruits nnd Vegetables for a much longer period than heretofore. "The Canadian grower, under the stress of a greatly increased demand, will be forced to employ more labor to produce more Fruit and more Vegetables to reach Many Millions on a sure market where there is no local competition, and where the City man and the Country man aro alike benefitted. "The Canadian consumer, while privileged to enjoy locally-grown fresh fruits and vegetables to the fullest extent, will also be enabled to secure, at economical rates, early Fruits and Vegetables, much in advance of the local supply." Notes and Comments The C. P. R. Company will build a big hotel in Toronto. Another mark of disbelief in the blue ruin predictions of the opponents of reciprocity. A telegram sent to Toronto by Sir Wilfrid Laurier reads as follows: "We have not hurt the manufacturer, and we will not do so. Wc have benefitted the farmet and the consumer. When tho lime comes we will sweep thc country from the Atlantic to the Pacific." There is optimism for you. A spirit such as that spells success. An "ami-knocking" club has been formed in Trenton, N. J. Ita object is as might be supposed, to oppose knocking individuals, for among the resolutions is one that no meml>cr will ever say anything about any person of an injurious nature, whether true or untrue. This is pretty far-reaching. The method of keeping the members faithful to their pledges is by a fine of $5 for the first offence if a satisfactory explanation is not furnished, $10 for the second offence, and expulsion for the third.

DAILY MESSAGES FROM "UNCLE JERRY" No. 25 Do you realize that every train of the G. T. P. K. R. will be ' n flying advertisement for our city? The letters stand for "Go To Prince Rupert Road" that's plain. The Grand Trunk chose its name well and we nre duly grateful. Just now the Grand Trunk is making Prince Rupert but it will not be long before Prince Rupert will make the Grand Trunk Pacific. A modern railroad iB a wonderful institution. Railroad building today is not a gamble, it is a science. A railroad that would just make a town its terminus just for the sake of making a town woultl bc committing suicide. It. would be flirting with the undertaker, as my friend Sheriff Small used to say back in Missouri. A railroad chooses its terminus for the trade it can get there, for the freight it can bring there and take away from there. So you see the railroad knew exactly what it waa doing when it chose Prince Rupert. We know that ninny excellent engineers, many of the nblest business men, many large capitalists compose the railroad, and we know thnt their collective judgment must be good or they would not be able engineers, able business men or able capitalists. They selected Prince Ruuert. You or I cannot havo better judgment in the matter than they did. That's our cue to profit by their judgment. Stick with Prince Rupert anil tell your friends about it. If you don't know what to tell them about Prince Rupert ask me and I'll tell you what to say. Also I shall give you my book of questions and Answers on I tinea Rupert. You can either send that or copy it. It is easier to send it or I II semi it f���r you. If you and I keep on getting busy with telling the outsiders aliout Prince Rupert, it will not be long before we will have twenty- live thousand Inhabitants, then fifty and then my prophecy, "The San Francisco of Canada.

BRIGHT MIND IN DARKEST DESPOND WELL KNOWN WINNIPEG LAWYER ATTEMPTS SUICIDE Clever Man and Keen Politician Dogged by Drink Demon Deapaira and Deairea Death but Haa a Chance of Life. (Special to the Optimist) Winnipeg, April 5.���Today Edward Fisher, a well known laywer and keen politician of this city, lies at St. Bcni- tace Hospital in a critical condition with his throat gashed from ear to ear. He inflicted the wound himself with I safety razor. Fisher was a patient in the hospital befcre he made the attempt on his life. Iu- had been undergoing treatment for delirium tremens and was appeamtly making a fair show at Improvement. But the demon of despond got a grip of him, and securing the safety razor he tried in determined manner u> end his life. At the time of wiring he had a bare chance of recovery. ANGLE FIRE DID $1500 DAMAGE MAX HEILBRONER LOSES ALL HIS HOUSEHOLD GOODS Water Waa Plentiful. Brigade Saved Building but no Furniture. Insurance on Building Only. Valuable Indian curios Lost. _ Fortunately the fire which caught William Angle's large house on Fulton street yesterday evening, was checked soon after the outbreak, otherwise several buildings near Mr. Angle's would have gone up. Unfortunately ;he blaze was not put out before it had destroyed the top rooms cf the building in 'which resided Mr. Max Heilbroner with his wife and child. About $1000 worth of Mr. Heilbron?r's furniture and property is destroyed, and not a cent of insurance existed on it. Four hundred dollars worth cf Indian curios from the North wire all ashes or sodden and blackened pulp with the clothes and furniture. Frozen pipes really started the trouble, for the flames sprang from a plumber's blow lamp which ignited some oakum Stuffing a pipe hole in the floor of Mr. Heilbroner ��� kitchen. The plumber was working ut the pipe from below. He did not see the oakum until it blazed. Then he dashed up stairs to get at the fire from above, but found that the Heilbroners were all oul and their apartment! locked. Thus the fire got loo good it start. Mrs. Angle was at thc other end of the upper floor. She had a key for ihe Heilbioner's rooms, and with the plumber did the best possible with buckets of water. But by this lime it wus 'u job for the brigade. The j kitchen wus ull ablaze. Neighlrtjrs rushed in to help, and did their best, but by this time the Bremen were un the job. They hud plenty of water near al hand, und wilh the aid of long ladders directed iwo streams into the centre of lhe tire. Summoned ut 5 p.m. they hud the building saved by 5.25 or so, but were unuble to save much of Mr. Heilbroner's furniture. Ready help wus lent thc brigade by u compuny of u dozen live Boy Scouts under the direction of their seniors Jock Dunn and Wulter Smith; and besides doing ull ihey could to save property many kind neighbors were swift to offer uccommedution to the burnt out family before the lire was even out. To these Mr. Heilbroner extends his thanks. Mr. Angle, who was huving the lower pun inn of ihe building put in shape for first class apartments, estimates the damage to the building ai about $500 which is coveied by insurance. He greatly regrets the serious trouble und loss caused his friend antl tenant Mr. Heilbroner who is well known and popular in the city. Hone for the best, but be prepared for all contingencies. Adequate Insurance will give you an added sense of precaution. The Mock Realty Co. can write you just the policy you need. See them now. MISSION YACHT FOR B. C. COAST LADY MUSGRAVE OF VICTORIA PRESENTS TRIM CRAFT Captain Comley Will Viait Logging Camps on Northern Coaat-Yacht Is Specially Designed for Work She Will Do. A completely equpiied mission yacht huilt for the express purpose of visiting the ever-increasing number of logging camps up the coast is the handsome and very practical donation of Lady Musgrave of Victoria. This new craft, which was completed, launched and christened a few weeks ugo the "Governor Musgrave," left on Monday afternoon in charge of Captain Comley for ils future scene of activity up the coast. With the aid cf lhe "Governor Musgrave" to carry him from one logging or mining camp to another, Capt. torn- ley will undertake the work of holding services, distributing tracts and such other literature as is available, at the various up-coasi Battlements, which are as yet without uny pastor or place of divine worship. Realizing lhat there was a greut field of work for an energetic missionary with a small, handy power craft that could be handled to advantage in the many little bays and inland chnn nels that abound up the coast, Lady Musgrave provided the funds some time ago for the construction of this craft. The "Governor Musgrave," built at a local shipyard, is only '.'5 feet over all in length. But she is a regular little floating home with accommodations for four persons, although for the greater part of the time there will be only Cupt. Comley aboard. The trim little craft, built with a hunting cabin, has her engine controls very conveniently arranged for one-man handling, the steering wheel being nluccd at the after end of the hunting cabin. The "Governor MuBgrave" and her energetic commander will cover a distriet .hat has been found too large for the other mission ship, Columbia II., in charge of Capt. Antle. Cupt. Comley will keep his craft entirely up north, having' arranged for the necessary supplies, gasoline and other stores to be forwarded to him to Rock Bay and other hospital und mission points up the coast. As tho open waters of the lower Gulf of Georgia are too exposed for such u small craft as the "Governor Musgrave," that terriroty will be left almost entirely to the largur mission ship, Columbia II. ALL PURCHASERS PAY $5 AN ACRE LAND CLAIMS STAKED BEFORE NEW SCALE CAME OUT ALSO Olny Those Who Had Purchased and Paid for Their Land Before Begin- ninog f Provincial Fiscal Year Have Escaped. (Special to the Opiimist) Victoria, April 5.���According to a recent revision of the Land Policy all purchasers of Provincial Lands must pay for them at the new instead of the old acerage scale even if the land wus stoked previous to the beginning of the Provincial Fiscul year. A largo number of land stakers who had staked their sections before the new scale was announced were hoping that the old rate per acre would apply to them still, and the fact that they have now to pay twice us much for lhe land is n dis- nppointment to them.
