A CIVIL WAR AT ZION CITY DOWIEITES ARE UP IN ARMS AND RIOTING They Resent the Order of the State Board of Health Compelling Them All to be Vaccinated. Armed Guards Are on the Streets. (Special to the Optimal I Zion City, March 6.���There is war- civil war���in Zion today. The order of the State Board of Health ordering the citisens to be vaccinated is at the bottom of the trouble. President Voliva b at the head of the rebellion against the civil authorities. He had had a drum placed at the top of thc citadel. At a drum beat, given on every approach of the vaccination squad, the faithful turn out in force to repel them. The rioting has been caused by internal dissensions. The anti-Volivaites are with the authorities, and this caused rioting. Rioting was only stopped by the intervention of armed guards, who were posted to prevent any outbreak from the anti-Volivaites. Why Does Willie Not Visit Us? The Vancouver World of Feb. 28th has the following interesting paragraph��� "Mr. Wm. Manson, M.P.P. for Skeena, and Mayor of Prince Rupert, is spending a week with relatives in the city." If Mr. Wm. Manson can retire from his Legislative duties early in the session to go visiting relatives, why does he not come home to Rupert, to the folks who are paying him salary for twelve months? Even if he cannot straighten out this wretched strike tangle, it would look better to be on the spot attending to duty. This absentee Mayor business can be carried too far.

BOX 1545 PRINCE RUPERT. B.C. The Revival of Morris Dancing Children in England are learning the old-fashioned morris dances and their elders look on with delight. In the large cities of the United States the folk dances of the countries of the old world are being taught the children of the schools in the poorer districts. This revival of dancing is looked upon as an excellent sign of he times by many observers. The dance is glorified movement as poetry is glorified speech. Only, of course, in the greatest dancers is this mastery complete; but the ordinary child can learn a great deal of the art of bodily expression, enough at least to play his part in the dance as a player of ordinary powers can play his part in a band, indeed, the art of dancing is e idently far easier han the art of j music, since children can be quickly I trained so that their dancing will give I the most exquisite pleasure to onlookers, I so that while they dance they seem to I live and move and have their being in a golden age of common and innocent delight. To see then dancing thus is to undergo a very strange und moving experience. For as they take to the dance wiih an eagerness that proves they have some inherited desire and aptitude for it, so the sight of them dancing stir the onlooker to a delight which appears so familiar that there must be some kind of inherited memory in it. They recall to him a past which he has never known, they speak a language which he has never heard yet understands as soon as he hears it. Causes of Long Life A hereditary tendency to long life. A moderation approaching asceticism in eating and drinking. A serene disposition. Congenial work, and abundance of it. Ability to see the playful side of life���"the sense of humor," as it is called. Daily open-air exercise; preferably walking or wood chopping. Sound sleep every night, six to eight hours. Recuperative power. It will be noted that neither health nor wealth is included in this summing up. In point of fact, many centenarians have had periods of Invalid- I ism, the result of apparently chronic \ or obviously acute disease. An Am- ; erican centenarian, Miss Yardley, who died in Chicago some years ago ut the i mellow age of one hundred and five, j hud been given but six months to live when her physicians declared her n- curable at eighteen. The veteran American humorist, Donald G. Mitchell ("Ik Marvel"), was also "a hoprle.is case" before he reached twenty. In these and in other cases the hinth cause of longevity, "recuperative power," waa most strongly marked. Indeed, insurance experts, espec.ally in England, are inclined to place the ability to recuperate as the first desirable qualifi- j cation for a long-life "risk." If absolute health is not a condition of longevity, great wealth is still less so. Most of the centenarians have been poor, or but moderately provided with worldly goods. The few who had command of money lived frugally, avoiding all the grossness, all the excitement, all the fatigu- and ull th extravagances which shorten the lives of so many rich people. TWO NEW RECIPES Mush Muffins Two cupfuls of warm cornmeal mush, two cupfuls of milk, two tablespoon uls of sugar, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter, and sufficient flour to muke a drop batter. Mix in order g.ven; add one-half yeast cake dissolved in a little lukewarm water, and heat five minutes Stand i a warm place until light. Hulf fill your muffin rings, set on a well greased griddle and, when raised and brown on the under side, turn ond brown on the other dies. Crystalized Nuta Boil slowly together two cupfuls of granulated sugar and one cupful of water until on dropping u little ice wuter it can be rolled in a ball between the fingers. Pour it into a straight sided pan of such size as to have the syrup one inch deep. Gently drop in the nuts to be crystullized, not allowing one to touch thc other. Set aside in a dry, m derately warm place and leave undisturbed for twenty-four hours. If hen sufficiently covered with the crystals, drain off the syrup und put the pun in u cool pluce until the nuts are dry. HOUSEHOLD HITS When carpets are not taken up, they can be greatly freshened by washing over with wdter to which a tablespoonful of ammonia has been added to each pail of water. This should be done after a thorough sweeping. An excellent way to remove a spot from a dark woollen skirt, is to rub it hard wi h a piece of soft old linen. In nine cases out of ten the spot will be absorbed by the linen without any cleaning fluid being applied. For a meat pie crust take a quart of flour, add three tablespoonfuls of lard, two and a half cups of milk, two tea- spoonfuls of baking powder and a teu- spoonfil of salt. Work all together as quickly and lightly us possible. TR0USER SKIRTS ARE JEERED AT DISORDERLY SCENES ARE WITNESSED IN PARIS Several Parisian Gentlemen Thought the Fashion so Unladylike They Pelted the Wearer with Egga���Police Had to Protect Woman. Paris, Feb. 28.- Incidents of public disturbances accompanying the appearance in the streets of women wearing the new trouser skirts occur daily. The Avenue de I'Opera was the scene of one of the most serious male outbreaks. The woman having been surrounded by a laughing, jeering crowd, was unable to proceed, and a man, taking advantage of the occasion, purchased a basket of eggs from a dealer in a aide street and distributed them among the other men, who in order to show their disapproval of what they ' considered unladylike conduct, pelted the helpless wearer of the new garment until a squad of police intervened and aided the woman to escape. Doubts appear to have arisen among the leading Paris dressmakers as to whether the skirt will be adopted by women as a general fashion. But few have been ordered thus far, and these have gone chiefly to women Irom abroad who are shopping and wish to take home the latest sensation. Many have been sent to America.

TROOPER MOLLOY'S BRIDE WEALTHY SEATTLE GIRL IS Blind Hero of South African War Met Miss Jean Munro Six Years Ago in London She Has Studied Under Tetrazzini. Ottawa, March 4.���A murriuge of much interest lo Canadians generally took place in the Methodist church at Waddington, N. Y., yesterday when Trooper L. W. R. Mulloy, the blind hero of the South African campaign, led to the later Miss Jean Munro, daughter of a Seattle, Washington, millionaire and the possessor of half a million in her own right. Trooper Mulloy is in the novel position of having never seen his bride, as the romance which culminated in the recent engagement only began some years after he received the injuries which resulted in his complete | loss of sight, he having met her in London, England, about six years ago. The trooper himself gave out lhe news of his intending nuptials recently, surprising a party of friends by calmly remarking that when they next saw him they would sec him "double." Miss Munro is an accomplished musician and the possesor of a ma niticenl soprano voice. She has studied in Italy for rive years, and was a companion of Madame Tetrazzini, the noted opeiu singer. TORONTO GETS WATER AGAIN V��'K Pictures at the Phenix. FORTY MEN AND A DIVER CLEARED THE OBSTRUCTION City Had to Send a Hundred Sleighs Laden With Water Barrels to Keep the City, from Going Thirsty Toronto, March 3.���After two days' suspension of water services the obstruction in the intake pipe was dislodged at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and in a few hours wuter passed northward from the downtown district to thc highest points in the city, filled the reserve mains, and started filling up the empty reservoir. The conditions which made the blockade possible, the immense field of ice extending five miles from shore, remained unchanged, although the wind lessened considerably during the afternoon. A wind ofT shore, it wus said, would relieve the engineering department of much of its anxiety, and perhaps clear thc danger zone. Forty men and a diver were engaged in clearing away thc ice and sand at the intake, and removed nearly a thousand cubic feet. Two centrifugal six-inch pumps were used. Property and Street Commissioner Harris did not relax his preparations to extend relief, despite the improved conditions. Although the pressure gauge in Waterworks Engineer Fellowes' office indicated by twenty minutes to four yesterday afternoon that normal conditions had been established, Mr. Harris allowed his men, with 108 sleighs and 883 barrels of water, to finish their rounds, the drivers increasing thc humorous features of life in the outskirts very materially by tooting horns to let the householders know where and when the water was to be had. Mining Market Wakens Up Vancouver, March 2.-556,873 shares of Portland Canal stock changed hands here last month. The stock is selling at 14 1-4 bid with 15 asked.

Winni'M*-*, March 4.-There is 11 stranite anomaly today on the editorial page of thc Free Tress, which is owned by Hon. Clifford Sid mi. An editorial leader headed "I* aying with fire,' bitterl nivsails, en masse, those who op|Mwu? reciprocity, while a half column editorial devoted to Mr. Sifton's speech, runs in part, as follows-. "It ia this note of independence and personal conviction which gives the speech its distinction,' making it the first memorable and formidable criticism of the agreement lhat has been submitted to the House. Il will be universally read and gives careful and rii'|>cct'ul condiseration by all and not liws by those imlitical Bfr Kociatra of Mr. Sifton who have nol been able to sec eye to eye with him ti this matter." In the course of the editorial attacking those who opis-pc reciprocity, the Free Tress says: "A blind man can see thai the agitation, in a large degree, is not spontaneous. It is being planned, minted, stage-manai-ed, financed and advertised. Who are thc men on the job? First, of course, the leaders of the Conservative party who, living up t thc full opportunities of their positions are opposing the government with all the resources at their command. Beyond doubt, organised and powerful businisi interests have thrown the full weiRht of their enormous influence into Ihe fray to prevent, if |ios-ilile, the ratification of the agreement. These interests arc not difficult to identify. They are chiefly the manufacturers of Ontario.

MOTHER (Written by an Australian girl aged 1G) So long the day has seemed Left all alone; So sud and still the home, With mother gone. The swing beneath the elm Has lost its charm. For what can send it up Like mother's arm. With books and dolls und toys I love to play, Hut joy -and mother, too��� Have gone away. So slowly falls the night, And from my cot, I listen for her step, And heur it not. And then���oh, hush -she comes My heart beats fast, And joy���and mother, too��� Have come at last.

JOHN Mcl.EOD I'ub. Fsli.23. Clsrence McDowell, Agenl General and minor matter! in relation to tlie strike from tlie principal subjects of discussion at the P. R. I. A. meeting last nif-ht in their hall on Third avenue. The* general feeling of tbe meeting wm expressed by a speaker who said hat the workers felt that the responsibility for the strike lay entirely with the contractors who still held out Bgai st the 45 cent rate. The workers woultl be surprised if the community of Prince Rupert favored the com nuance of the difficulty, and wished to see the improvement work in thc city to remain at a standstill just to suit the pockets of two or three contractors who were not in business for their health. Not Angry Wi;h Council No kick comes to the city council from the P. R. I. A. at present. The workers' war is all against the contractors. It will be found that the strongest resistance to the increase comes from the English-speaking contractors concerned. Today, in fact, Lackovitch's gang resumed operations on Third avenue near Fifth street and an understanding exists that Louis Vuckavitch will start hia men up at the 45 cent rate tomorrow. There is a strong probability thai M. Gurvitch will follow suit. Mclnnis & Kelly, . P. McMordie, and S. H. Watson hold out, and remark that it is easy- fur the non-English speaking contractors to come through with the raise as they work in the cuts with their gangs more or less, and share and share with the men. The Strikers' Argument The strikers maintain lhat whether they gain the increase or not, the contractors stand to lose by their resistance to it. If they try to break the strike with m|-orled abor, say the men. they will have to use inexperienced rockmen and laborers of thc Vancouver "out of work" class, clerks out of jobs, and "down and outs." "We have good men, trained rockmen and miners in our ranks," :<ay the strikers, "and such men cannot be brought in here for less than $3.50 a day. Only a poor class of men will scab on their fellow-workers." Want Council to Break Contracta An idea which comes in for quite a lot of approval among the workers is that the city should arrange to pay off the contractors for the work already done, and have the work completed by the men on strike at the city wage rate of 45 cents an hour The men declare that they could put on two shi ts if necessary, and do the grading bet er and quicker than it is being done now as they have the best rockmen in their ranks. No Newcomera Expected It is not anticipated by the P. R. I. A. that any more labor will be invited here from the south. "But if it comes, we are ready with a welcome for it like the last," they say. As a matter of fact, R. A. McMordie remarked this morning that it was not the intention to bring in any more labor to be absorbed by the strikers. From the contract rs' point of view, hc said that the effect of thc strike was trilling. The work is of a nature to lie idle unharmed. Only the interest on capital outlay or plant is being lost. As for the $26 per day penalty clause for delay over the time limit, Mr. McMordie is of the opinion that this is not likely lo be enforced. The time limit is liable to be extended to compensate for delay occasion d by city operations on the contract area.

NAME WAS WRONGLY USED Mr. John Goodman Wants Empire's Report Corrected Mr. John Goodman, proprietor of the Grand Hotel, who was reported in Saturday's Empire as having been charged with permitting gambling on his premises, has requested the Optimist j to contradict the statement. Mr. Goodman says hc was not summoned to court, either as a principal, or even as a witness. He was not present at the time thc police entered his house. The charge, which was against I guest at his house, was dismissed, as thc game which (he men were playing when the police entered was not fnr money. the girls of the dead line as often more sinned against than sinning at lirst, and said that the saddest lives on earth are theirs. Taking up the legal aspect of the evil, L. W. Patmore expounded the law of the Dominion on the subject showing that it is comprehensive and leaves no loophole for the offender male or female to escape the punish ments of the Law. "But," said Mr. Patmore, "the police and magisterial system of any community is but the mirror of that community's moral sense." Therefore in certain places, chiefly in Western Canada, the segregation of vice is allowed. From the historical point of view Mr. Patmore spoke showing that the social evil has baflltd various systems of dealing with it. In Paris the home of the segregation system the evil extends beyond its segregation limits to nearly thrice the extent of its roll within them. -Mr. Patmore emphasised the importance of keeping this evil well confined and controlled. "Young girls," he said, "seeing these women at concerts and public assemblies, hearing their laughter, seeing their jewels and line dresses are apt to be led away to think lightly of the life these women lead. They do not know of the bitterness and degradation of the life. Whatever we do, and I do not speak on the subject as a dogmatist in any sense, we must insist lhat if these women, if tolerated are kept off our streets and away from our public assemblies." Bishop Du Vernet's brief but eloquent appeal to the moral and spiritual sense of his hearers closed the meeting wilh a strong note of contidence in the ultimate triumph of purity and goodness through education and legislation under the power of God. ���ooooooooooooooooooooooooj Canadian Gtneral Electric Co.
