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

(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.

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.

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.

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.
Prophesies of a mining boom are
cammon, but to far nothing of the so t
has realized, though the buying of Red
Cliff and Portlund Canal futures would
seem to indicate that some persons
have the courage to back their expectations with their money.

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.

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.

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.
