Station Work Prohibited One point which was made clear wu that workmen will not be allowed lo take station work from those contractors who huve refused to grunt the im-reu.se. Another matter was the charge for board made by S. P. McMordie on the wuges of six men whom he had arranged should put up at the Grand View Hotel. On the declaration of the strike these men hud been turned out of the hotel, und on their time cl ecks their hourd wits charged up. One worker to whom $58 wus coming hud, it is suid, $53 deducted for board. Another to whom $70 wus due had to draw only $2 Ciah, his board charge being $70. Was It for Whiskey. A member of the execulive committee said that one of the wcrkfN had explained the high charge for board by suying thut some of it wus for whisky. How could a charge be made for whisky in a board hill ut the Grand View Hotel? The (irand View Hotel haa no licence. He thought thut the workers should demand lhe full amount of the wages due them und puy their board bills themselves, und suggested thut if the contrucmr did nol like this plan, un appeal to the Government Agent might help. Press Reports Criticized A motion that the press be excluded from the workers' meetings as the mover considered that the published accounts of thc meetings were gnrbled, wus withdrawn. The chairman, Mr. W. Prater, informed the mover that both vitch on the mutter of wuges and his contruct wus described with the reser- vution of certain private matters which the committee had agreed not to give out. It seems thai Gurvitch's intention is to sec whether the city will muke Up to him the difference between the 37 1-2 rute und the 45 cent rule, in which case he is prepared to puy the 45 cents und start up his contract aguin. If not, he will consider whether to pay the 45 cent rate himself or throw up the contract altogether. This contract it will be remembered is the Third avenue one whieh waa priced so low that the bust city council had to consult with the city engineer before it was thought advisable to lei the work to Gurvitch.

The Secretnry staled thut the steamer .will be met by u strong detuihment of the workmen in order that these 25 men may nol be allowed lo land here under any misupprehensi n whatever regarding the situation.

NO ASIATICS FOR AUSTRALIA WHITE MANS POLICY" IS DECIDED ON BY MINISTRY Japanese Peorl Fishers on North Coast Are to be Expelled Will Give Japanese Spies no Op ��� rtun- ities to Learn Things. Melbourne, March 8. The federal government has gone a step further in iis campaign against the Asiatics In Australasia. Regulations have ins' lieen issued which will have the effect of practically expelling the Orientals who arc engaged in the pearl fisheries on the north coast of West Australia. All hough the trade Is worth to the Common-emith about one hundred thousand pounds sterling the government haa made no scruple in carrying out its policy. The Ostensible reason of the ministry's net ion is that the "White Australia" policy permits of no infringements such as are caused by '.he presence of the pearlers on the coasts but the real reason is that the authorities charged with th" duty of securing the defence of the Island continent are anxious lest tbe Japanese should have an opportunity of spying out the lund. Under the compulsory service luw 125,000 hoys have registered for army training. These figures -how tt.ut the response by th��' youths of the Federation 1 as been most enthusiastic.

Let me settle the matter now, once and for all. My dictionary defines ; hu:i or as "a mental quality which delights in ludicrous antl mirthful ideas." N w consider, for example, the hobble skirt. It is ludicrous ar.d mirthful. Women delight in it. Therefore-Qu;te so Men t ndoubtedly possess more humor than women, but women don't use theirs up so quickly. A little humor goes a long way with a woman: she has an insight for economy. A sense of humor, remember, does not lie i.i an ability to laugh. I know- men who laugh till their ears ache, und yet they have no real sense of humor. Many a woman owes her dazzling smile to her dentist, and not to her bump of h.mor. A t ing need not necessarily be funn. because they feel like it. and many women laugh because they feel they ought to. And remember, my son, that a woman usually laughs her heartiest when she wants to exasperate a man. And there's nothing funny in that There are two certain ways of amusing a woman with a sense of humor. You can either propose marriage to her, or propose to some one else. A woman always thinks it's fu ny you could possibly expect her to marry you; und she always thinks it's funny you could ever think of marrying any one else. Comic literature does not appeal to women unless it is in manuscript, is delivered by post, an . has a lol of little crosses al the foot of the page. The feminine idea ot smart repartee is to get in the last v. ..ri.s. Any old words will do, so long as they an the last. I am such an admirer of wit that I would give anything to hear the very last words of some women.���F. Morton Howard in London Opinion. slip, then outline with embroidery cotton to conceal stitches.

How About the Harem Sk'rt; In pen ing the above t elicious bit of satirical humor about tne hobble skirt Mr. Morton Howard discre-. ly forgot to drag in the trousers skirt. Nothing more clearly proves the interfering naiure of the average man's humor thun the reports of its reception. In New York, Madrid and Paris the wearers were obligetl to seek police protection. In the latter ab-t.e of chivalry a cro. d of men threw eggs at the costume of a woman who was brave enough to become a pioneer of the new fashion. Granted even that women arc taking a backward step in rationalising their coBtume to make il more like that of min, it se. ms an amiis-ii.g impertinence of any man to say how any woman's costume should be cut. USEFUL HINTS Children's hair should never be strained tightly olT the forehead if you wish it to grow thick. Receding hair in later life is often caused in this way. Eggs are most easily disgestetl when eaten raw. If this is impossible, place them in a pan of nearly boiling water, and stand at the side of the stove for seven to eight minutes. Hot water is a simple drink that ought to be more popular, for it pro- moles secretion better than cold, and is at ull times a Stimulant of no mean nature. Taken the last tiling at night and in the early morning this beverage is a boon to gouty people.

March 4 The Council's Plea For Mercy In the "official advertising medium for the City of Prince Rupert" there i ppeared last night an article in its editorial column pleading for mercy for the cily council. It had all the earmarks of an inspired article. The plea was based on the ground of consistency; that because the Optimiat at the close of last year protested against the campaign of abuse and falsehood against the old council thai therefore it ought to be silent against the shortcomings and incompetence of the present council. Consistency has been called "the vice of small minds." In the present case the appeal to consistency is foolishness and disloyalty. There is no parallel between the honest, legitimate and courteous criticism which the present council has received from the Optimist, and the charges of trying to steal the telephone franchise, and thc flood of "The Mayor is a Liar" editorials which m.iligned the old council. And not even the Journal would have the audacity to deny thai, the old council were a race of giants, compared with the preset.t council. ��� The Optimist has no desire to hurt the feelings of any of the members of the council. As private citizens they are all estimable gentlemen. But as a body of civic administrators it is hard to grow enthusiastic over them. Wiih no desite to press criticism on them, let their record stand without comment. They inherited oflice, found the departments organised and the work of civic development in progress. Tbe electric light plant was well on its way; the one great question was to secure a new water supply for the city. Bui what has the council done? They commenced by abolishing the office of permanent city solicitor, and placed ihe legal patronage on the patronage list. They 'ook away from the city engineer his privilege of appointing his own staff, and placed the engineering appointments on the patronage list. In order to fulfil their election pledges to the Industrial Workers on whose votes the present council with the exception of Alderman Pattullo were elected to office, the council brought the ratepayer.**, the contractors and the workingme into conflict, with the result that the workingmen are no.v i n strike, the contrac ore are at a standstill, and the latepayers are dissatisfied. If the Journal can find anything to enthuse over in that, it is welcome to its joy. For our part we decline to liep .-il nee, much less to join in the chorus of praise led by the Journal. There is real work to be done by the council, and it would bc the wors-. kind of disl.-y. Ity to stifle criticism of a council that shows no serious attempt to tackle the larger pr blems which confront the city. We will remind thc Journal of its plea later on if a water famine vMta the city, and finds the council still peddling palronage instead of building waterworks. A water famine will "knock Prince Rupert"; honest criticism of its council will not. In the meantime we would remind the council of our pledge on the day following heii el ction: "The Optimist will stand loyally by the new council in its enterprises launched in good faith, and carried out with regard to public economy. But any ui tempt to sacrifice the public weal to satiate the machine, will meet with a iigor..us and unflinching criticism." Thai promise still stand . Hold Down These Stocks (Toronto Globe) The Montreal Star has been making an appeal to Sir Wilfrid Laurier, "the one man who can save Canada." A month ago, according to The Star, certain very foolish, if not, indeed, treasonable, members of his Government went down lo Washington and were given a present of "a Trojan Horse." The Star feels certain that reciprocity horse will bring ruin upon us. Listen:���"If we turn thc swollen stream of our food exports away from the west-east lines that carry it to the British market and send it along north-south lines to the American market��� or rather, the American 'middleman' we will utterly shatter the costly steel hwnework of this nation Ud debase the Dominion lo a string of subject Province serving the convenience of the nearest American centres. The 'bridge' over the wildi-rnes*. norlh of Lake Superior will be broken. Confederate n will be cut at a half-doi-en vital points. " That is a very lamentable prospecl. For a few days after The Star's prophecy business men held their breath awaiting the first tremendous crash of "the costly steel framework of this nation." But a curious thing happened. The C. P. R. is, of course, thc most important part of the "costly framework." On the day upon which thc "Trojan Horse" was turned over to C nada���that is to say, when the reciprocity agreement was signed���C. P. R. stock sold at 209 1-2. Yesterday after all thc talk of ruin to our railways as a result of the "breaking of the bridge" over the wilderness and the cutting out of the cast and west haul, C. P. R. sold t over 212. If there are any patriots among the operators in C. P. R. let them keep both hands on the stock. Should it go up any higher its flight will indicate all too plainly thst there is not a bit of real a preh nsion of injury to Canadian railways as a result of freer trade with our neighbors. ', ake the canners' case also. Thc canners arc still protesting that ruin stares them in the face. Yet the price of Canadian Canners common, which was 48 when the agreement was made, has already advanced to 57. The holders of the stock are thinking of memorializing Mr. Fielding to send on some more canned ruin and lay in a stahleful of Trojan Horses. Condensed Advertisements. ARE YOU IN NEED OF HELP ?

Victoria, March 8.���Lost in a blinding sno.'. storm in the mountains back of Rock Bay on Vancouver Mand, with his food supply entirely exhausted, a young prospector named James McElvoy died of exposure and starvation last Tuesday. Word to this effect was received at the provincial police offi.e this morning. McElvoy, accompanied by Gus Miller and Alfred Hegg, left Rock Bay about a week ago on a prospecting expedition through the mountains. After traveling for a couple of days they lost their wi.y in the storm. As their food supply was very scanty and starvation stared them in the face unless relief could be obtained, Miller and Hegg volunteered to go back to a cabin some eight miles away and obtain assistance. McElvoy, tired from his already strenuous tramp, decided to remain. The two prospectors obtained assistance and hurried back to the spot which had been arranged us a meeting pake. McElvoy was not wailing and a search failed to disclose his whereabouts. Later on the body of McElvoy was found face downwards about three hundred yards from the spot where the trio had originally separated. His food supply had been entirely exhausted and only a few charred embers remained to mutely tell the story of the last struggle which the unfortunate prospector had made for his life. With no trail down the mountain side and with a storm raging, it was impos- aibel to curry the body down to Rock McElvoy came from HillBdale, Ont., and since coming west had made Vancouver his headquarters. His relatives in the east have been notified. Moving"PictiireB at the Phenix. WILL REPRESENT RUPERT'S RIFLES COLOR SERGEANT GEO.

The banners were worded in different language , an I strong ��� e.ik- ers of v rious nationalities stO' d ready- to shout out the stal* oi affairs to the newcomers as soon as the steamer got within hearing distance. Men Were Surprised On the Camosun's foreijeck could be seen clustered a group of some fifty nii'ii gazing in surprise at the crowd on the wharf above. Seamen's voices first hailed at the wharf, and the news "Strike On" was shouted to the officers by the shore officials. Before the heaving lines came ashore a babel of voices broke out forward and on the wharf. Si-me of the whirlwind orators ol foreign races represented amongst the strikers got in a rush of explanation for their comrades on thc steamer, and a fusillade pf question and answer was kept up as the Camosun tied up.

TELKWA IS PLEASED Look for Mining Boom to Follow the Railway Telkwa, March 1.- Thc news that the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway has consented lo construct a branch line from the main line to tap the Silver Cup, Lead King and other mines in Nine Mile mountain is most encouraging to the people of this place. It is looked u|ion merely as the first of such r ilway facilities for the development of the mines of the district. James Cromin will no doubt get one to his mine in Babble mountain a few miles east of Telkwa, which branch can be "under ronstructio next fall: then there will be extensive development in the Hudson Bay mountains to the west of Telkwa from ivhieh urn can be shipped as soon as a branch is completed, and the Grand Trunk Pacific railway will havu to build a branch to their own coal mines up the Telkwa river and almost within sight of this town, as soon as they begin running traina between Telkwa and Prince Rupert. The incoming stage this week brought in a big load of passengers for Fort Qeorge. Every week brings news of others who are preparing to come in soon. That we may expect a big rush of settlers and others into Fort George and district in the early spring is becoming more and more certain. It is lo be hoped that the government will take early action in regard to the opening of a Government Office here, and the building ol roads and the installing of ferries which have been petitioned lor and whirl-, are an absolute necessity to the community. !ort George Herald.
