SOUTH HAZELTON LOTS RAN VERY HIGH MET THE SETTLERS William Hanson, N.P.P. Attended a Gathering of the Up River Residents. TO CONSIDER CLAIMS Appropriations Are Under Consideration and Information Has Been Obtained as to Needs of District Terrace, Dec. 12.—William Man- son, M.P.P., paid a visit to this place last Saturday, where, by appoint- nientn, he met a large and representative gathering of the settlers of Kitsumkalum and Lakelse valleys. In the commodious reception room of the New Hotel, the meeting was held. Judging from the reception he got on rising to address the meeting he maintains his place as a great favorite with the settlers. He explained that this was his annual tour of the riding, to ascertain the amount of appropriation required for development work in the line of building roads, trails, bridges and ferries for the ensuing year. As these valleys are getting thickly settled now gotod roads are becoming an absolute necessity; consequently there was a large amount of money asked for, and the settlers will rest assured that it will not be Mr. Manson's fault if he does not succeed in getting it for the district. He evinced great surprise at the rapid growth of the town of Terrace, where the G. T. P. Ry. has built a very substantial depot. Towards the close of the meeting he announced that the government had decided to build a cable ferry across the Skeena River at a point continguous to the town of Terrace. This will be a great convenience to the settlers on the Lakelse side of the river in coming across to the station and to the post office for their mail. Mr. Manson was accorded a hearty vote of thanks, after which the meeting came to a close. o ROBBED OK HIS FALSE TEETH City Solicitor Presents Report on the Finding of Nr. Justice Clement.

The report deals with each part of the judgment. On that of liquidated damages Mr. Peters said the judge was not sure of his ground on that point as he relied upon thet city engineer saying that the time was too short to complete the work. Mr. Peters believed the judgment to be erroneous on this point. As to the time being too short, this was discovered since the event.

On the point of the $500 allowed for rock deposited below Beach Place, Mr. Peters contended theret was no legal right to this $500. It could only be overhaul. Mr. Peters pointed out that there were only two courses. One would be to take an appeal on these two points—that of liquidated damages and the $600 extra. The second course was that the council, having obtained the views of the court as to a basis to proceed upon, should take that course and decide the amount due on the basis of the judgment. Alderman Clayton moved that in view of the somewhat lengthy report that it lay on the table and that a report as to how each.contract stood be brought down so that an intelligent course could be taken. The claims of the contractors as viewed from the standpoint of the judgment could thenn be obtained. Alderman Hilditch wanted to see the motion go a little farther. He would like to see figures brought down to show how much the city would have to pay under this decision and how much the city engineer had recommended. They had what they sought, a decision of the court. Alderman Morrissey said that wbb like locking the stable after the horse was stolen. It had been proposed before the action began to take this up with the contractors, which, had It been taken up, might have saved the city the stigma that had been attached to It by thet Judge. He wanted the letter from Mr. Morgan produced. This letter had been written at his suggestion aud he did not know why it was not brought before the council. His Worship pointed out that the position of the majority of the council as far as he understood it was that they did not feel like settling the claims as far as liquidated damages was concerned without a decision of the court on that point. That decision had been obtained and the situation was therefore altered. The motion of Alderman Clayton carried. o Between This Port and the Hich Valley Bella Coola is seeking better transportation facilities with Prince Rupert, which is 'looked upon by the thrifty residents of that valley as the natural market for their produce. The matter of better mail service has been taken up. from here and there are assurances that a remedy will be provided. The views of the southern valley are set forth in the foliowing letter relative to the situation: Bella Coola, Nov. 24., 1911. To the Editor of the Prince'Rupert Journal, Prince Rupert B. C. Dear Sir:—No doubt space in your valuable paper is at a premium at all times, and your news columns well filled; it may be presumption on the writer's part to ask for your indulgence for the insertion of this article; but your well known championship of the needs of the Skeena District is my excuse for enlisting your sympathy at this time. Now, sir, to a great many of your readers no doubt Bella Coola Is only a name, but to any who have been fortunate enough to take a trip through this part of the Skeena District, either on pleasure bent, or on business, it must have been a revelation to them to observe the signs of prosperity, and extent of the improvements made by the settlers in this part of the Skeena. Our population Is"ahout 300 but is increasing, quite/,$' numbe^r.^pt stranger's having bought sma'l tracts of land this summer and are going in for small fruit and truck gardening. Every settler has telephone connection with Bella Coola, and Sloan, tnirty-five miles up the valley. A first class wagon road is being built by the government through the valley, which I believe will be carried through to a connection with the Cariboo Road in the very near future. Yet, Mr. Editor, a community of this size; the outfitting point of a vast hinterland extending as far north as Ootsa Lake and south to the Chilcotin; depending on the city of Prince Rupert and the northern coast district for a market for Its product; conceded by the Boscowitz Steamship Company to be the most lucrative point between Vancouver and Prince Rupert for trade, both in passengers and freight, and Sir, we are still doing business under the criminal disadvantage of only two mails a month, and both of them from the south. Practically our whole trade will be done with Prince Rupert in another year, and as it is at present mail from Prince Rupert takes a monlli to get here, having to go to Vancouver, and is forwarded from there. | We are sending a petition, signed by every person in the community, to our representative, Mr. Clements, for an increased Bel vice, so that steamers coining south from Prince Rupert und touching at this point will deliver mail, and we earnestly ask the assistance of the newspapers and merchants of the northern metropolis In the obtaining of this our just dues. Thanking you In advance for your courtesy, 1 remain, Yours sincerely, J. W. McFARLANE. J—o "OUR REGIMENT" Aid. Morrissey Opposes Engineer Putting in Tender of City's Undertaking and Prevents Action The proceedings of the City Council now show that an opposition ex ists that is prepared to oppose prac ticaliy everything that is suggested apart from their own suggestions. Last evening it manifested itself on the proposal to open a large number of tenders that were on hand for the station work in connection with the tenders for the waterworks. A large number were present to hear the result of the bids, but were disappointed. The result of the opposition shown is that this work is delayed and instead of starting almost immediately the digging of these trenches will not be possible until after another week's time. The matter came up at an early stage of the proceedings when Alderman Hilditch suggested that they proceed to this in view of the fact that so many interested were present and were anxious to hear the results. Alderman Kerr was absent through sickness and Alderman Clayton had not arrived, being late in taking his seat. Alderman Hilditch moved that proceed to open the tenders. Alderman Morrissey wanted to know if the city engineer's tender was in and was told it was. He wanted to know if the engineer's bid proved the lowest and it was found that the work cost more than his estimate who would pay the ditJerenf|J*£":' v"•'. - ~ - He contended that the engineer should only give an estimate and not make a tender. Finally, Alderman Hilditch's motion was passed and a vote taken tion was pressed and a vote taken on the question of whether the tenders be opened or not. This was defeated on a tite vote, Mayor Man- son, Alderman Hilditch and Alderman Kirkpatrick voting to open the tenders and Aldermen Morrissey, Newton and Douglas voting against the motion. Later in the evening, after Alderman Clayton arrived, that member wanted to know when the tenders were to be oppened, when the mayor explained the situation, saying he could not bind the council in the matter. In deciding whether the city engineer were to hear the difference In cost over his estimate or he (the mayor) could only speak as one member of the council. Alderman Clayton thought the proposition of Alderman Morrissey's to make the mayor responsible for the loss, If any, was a rediculous one. He was the servant of the city and if he could not make a proper estimate he should be asked CHINESE SHUT OUT Prohibition Against Them Entering Prominent Stores io Victoria on Saturday Nights.

Mr. Morrison said that for days after the McNamara brothers' plea of guilty money for their defense was pouring in. The subscriptions were made before the pleas were entered. Mr. Morrison said more than $200,000 had been subscribed and practically all of this had been spent. The money received by the committee after the pleas of guilty were made, he said, would be returned the contributors, while the residue of the defence fund, if any, would be either sent back to the contributors or distributed pro rata among the unions contributing to it.

The Indians report that it was the fiercest blow- known. The Hospital Tent was demolished by a large tree falling across it. Fortunately, it was not occupied at the time. A small building, in which Henry Edenshaw housed a donkey-engine, was also blown down, and the boiler smashed. All vessels were under shelter and no loss of boats or lives have been reported. Eli Tingley returned from the west coast, safe and sound; but returned there before the high wind of the twenty-seventh with supplies for the oil plant at Tiahn village. He reports the drill making satisfactory progress and the workmen most sanguine of ultimate success. Ground is being cleared for the new Anglican Church, on Collison Avenue, New Masset. The residents intend holding a sale of work during the Christmas holidays to aid in raising funds for construction. The building will be erected on the property adjacent to the new school- house. A party of surveyors arrived on the last steamer to locate a line of railway at the head of Masset Inlet. They left for the scene of operations on the launch Josephine. A number of men left for the Yakoun River on November 2 6 to carry a cable up the stream for use in connection with the opening of the coal mines in that locality. Alfred Adams & Company have erected a building on the Indian reserve to supply the Prince Rupert market with fish and game. They made the first shipment on November 2 4 and will install a cold storage plant. The Masset Indians are engaged in fishing for the new industry. The British Canadian Lumber Corporation Ltd. of Vancouver has opened a lumber yard in Masset Townsite and will supply the local trade with all the necessary building material to be used on Masset Inlet. Captain Andrew Brown is completing a large schooner, in which he will install a twenty-horsepower gasoline engine. The vessel is being built of yellow cedar and will be one of the best of that class of vessels coasting out of Masset. Joshua Moody, a former resident of Masset, has returned, to make his permanent home on the reserve. He is well known as a revivalist and will be an accession to the ranks of those engaged in teaching the Indians.' A rind cf "graphite" has been reported from Juskatla Bay..

PRINCH RUPBBT JOURNAL CONTRACTOR WINS AS TO DAMAGES Judgment Given by Mr. Justice Clement in City Case on Ground that Time Allowed was not Sufficient--- City did all that Could be Expected as to Strike—Penalizes Lawyers "Young in Practice" for Unwarranted Course. In the Supreme Court yesterday morning the case of Watson vs. City of Prince Rupert was concluded, Mr. Justice Clement hearing the address of counsel and giving an off-hand decision immediately afterwards. The large item involved in the action, ttlat respecting the question of liquidated damages, was decided against the city in this case although It is very doubtful If the decision of His Lordship was just as clear on this question as could have been wished for in view of the fact that it is a point at issue in practically all the disputes in settling up the contracts. His Lordship decided this case on the point that the time was admitted by the city engineer to be too short for the completion of the contract and not on the legal aspect of the right of the city to collect these damages, so that the point still remains somewhat in the dark. In view of the fact that the council sought a precedent through a judgment of the court In settling the disputes that have arisen, it ,is somewhat disappointing that the legal aspect on this point was not more fully dealt with. In concluding his judgment Mr. Justice Clement reprimanded counsel for the plaintiff for their course in trying to put up a claim that 'there was no time clause In the contract and for attacks upon the city engineer in their pleadings. Alex. Man- mon pleaded youth as an excuse for the firm. Address of Counsel In his argument on behalf of the city, Fred Peters, K. C, on the point of liquidated damages, contended that the idea of pre-estimated damages should not be given as much prominence as was attempted. On account of it being difficult to acer- tain the exact damages, liquidated damages should be assessed. His Lordship said that to his mind there had been a fundamental mistake. The engineer in his evidence said that he thought that the six months was too short for the carrying out of the contract. Mr. Peters pointed out that the contractor took the contract knowing all the conditions. The engineer's statement, even if it went that far, did not interfere with taq contract. The contractor was bound just the same. His Lordship said that this was a common error in judgment. Mr. Peters pointed out that there was nothing to show that the contractor did not take all this into account and that the charge per yard was made on the basis that there was too short a time allowed. In liquidated damages, the contract itself, and that alone, must be looked at. Surely the contractor must be given credit for exercising common sense enough to take into account this very fact that there was a limited time to do it and that he based his tender on that. No authority could be round to vary this. There was nothing to show how much less the engineer would have charged had the time been longer. Strike Period As to the charging of the contractors for the Btrlko period, Mr. Peters said he would leave the evidence as it was with His Lordship. He desired a judgment on the point. With respect to the work on Sunday, Mr. Peters said that the Sunday Observance Law was in force in Canada. No deduction should be allowed, because they were not allowed to work on those days. Mr. Peters alluded to the point with respect to the six months' time limit, which he said he would not argue now as it had been virtually concluded that there was tlie limit.- He, however, had a point which he wished to raise on behalf of Mi. Woods, ihe city clerk, wiih respect to the writing in of the six monlles in tlie contract, in tlie city hall. Mr, Woods wanted it made clear that he had no fraudulent intent. His Lordship said this was clear. He thought he had made It clear before. He was convinced that there was no fraud intended. As to the dumping of rock ou low lying lots Mr. Peters wanted to know why Watson, when he was first obliged to put rock elsewhere than on these lots, did not raise this objection, that he had a right to dump there. This claim was an afterthought. Watson, under the contract, was obliged to carry,out the whole contract before he was entitled to get all the money. Until the rock was removed, the Contract was not completed. His Lordship said he had no evidence to show that these owners would object to the small amount of rock dumped upon their land. Mr. Peters contended that with the money in the hands of the city, held back for the due performance of the contract, it should not be asked to take an action to secure damages as a matter of equity. His Lordship said that the city had no interest in this land. The city was only appearing as trustee. Mr. Peters contended that this was not a correct view. The contractor had a right to remove the material or get the consent of the owners to allow it to remain, when the money would be paid. The city should not be left liable. Lumber Charged His Lordship said on the point of the lumber loss he proposed to charge the plaintiff $100 for that lost to the'city. - Mr. Peters said he would say nothing on the point then. With respect to the extra removal of muskeg, Mr. Peters pointed out that this work was done a few days after the contract started. There could be little done there then. As a matter of fact, the ground was only scratched. No claim was put in until the suit commenced. On the point of overhaul on Beach Place, His Lordship said he felt like allowing $500 to the contractor. His ground for this was that at the start there seemed to be an understanding by both the city and the contractor that these low lots would be used. Mr. Peters, pressing for reasons for this, got from His Lordship that he regardeu this work as outside the contract. For Plaintiff Mr. Williams, for the plaintiff, argued that the estimate fixed by His Lordship as to the value of lumber taken was too great. His Lordship thought that $100 worth was used by the contractor. On the retaining wali proposition, Mr. Williams thought there was loss, but His Lordship could not see it from the evidence. To the strike, Mr. Williams gave a great deal of attention. The contended that the city authorities did not give the contractor's protection. His Lordship said "they had other interests to look after" as well as those of the contractors. The contractors' Interests were not the only ones In the city. He added that he was still of the opinion that It was outrageous for the city to try to collect for the time the contractors lost during the strike. He, however, did not doubt but that the authorities acted wisely in the matter of the strike. ('lies .Mr. Justice Murphy Mr. Williams, still anxious to linger on the point, contended thai Mr, Justice Murphy after giving judgment in tlie strike cases had given the opinion that the authorities had been very remiss in enforcing law and order and had not put fortli a proper effort to do so. His Lordship said he could not consider tills. He would not sit in judgment upon the actions of lhe authorities. It wan evident they had done the very best possible. Mr. Williams contended tl i In the Interests of law and orde Bhould liavi provided v force and seen that the work was allowed to go on under the contractors, "It was surely not In the inl il i>f law and order to leave a bloody battle on the streets," suggested His Lordship, it was noi reasonable, he added, to suppose that in a new pleie-c like tills there were all the facilities Omineca Land District — Hazelton Division TAKE NOTICE that I.

CONNECTION WITH OUTSIDE The letter from Bella Coola in another column relative to better facilities in the way of postal arrangements with that place from here is a matter of importance to Prince Rupert. This city cannot afford to have any complaints of this kind from the outlying sections as so much depends for the future upon the facilities that are afforded for easy communication with this port for all points as far south at least as Queen Charlotte Sound. It Is gratifying to know that H. S. Clements, the member for the district in the House of Commons, is keenly alive to the advantages ot these means of communication and recent letters received from him show that he has already taken the matter complainefl of up with the proper authorities, backed up by strong representations from Prince Rupert also. Already a measure of redress is to he afforded and further improvements will vearly be made. CANADIAN HIGHWAY ing prospects will shine more brightly with every mile of new steel. "In regard to railway operation, one may expect another mild shock for the difficulties in that connection will not be very great. As a matter of actual fact, the Canadian Northern engineers have secured grades that are quite on a par with the best in the older districts, and which do not exceed, at the worst, one-half of one per cent. This means a lift getting up to the Divide, at the maximum, of only 26 feet in a mile. The average will be but 10 feet on the ascent. Beyond the 'Height,' which is crossed at an altitude of 1,350 feet, there is a great flat clay belt in which, of course, (lie grades will hardly amount to anything worthy of consideration." o HEIGHT OF LAND Facts Brought Out by Survey for Canadian Northern in New Ontario His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught put the stamp of royal approval on the plan to construct a Canadian highway that will stretch from coast to coast. His intimation that the federal and provincial governments would work hand in hand with a view to improving the highways of Canada has already been of great assistance to the men who are taking an active part in the work of the Canadaian Highway Association, showing as it does that it only needs proper representation to the authorities to secure at once the commencement of this great national enterprise. o QUEEN MARY'S INFLUENCE llei- Majesty Insists on Moderation in Dress—Extreme Modes Are Discountenanced The Through Line Across Dominion Promises to lie- Curried Out The Canadian Northern Railway Company claims to have shattered one illusion as the result of the location of its main line through the country north of Lake Superior. Information given out at the Canadian Northern offices was to the effect that the engineers who are building this section of the main line to Montreal had found where the maps had shown them "The Height of Land" nothing at all in the way of rock-work at all. The Height of Land, it is stated, is not high at all, but is really a low lying swamp. "There isn't a ridge there," says the official information, "as well marked there as is the middle of the back of a crocdile; or if there Is, neither the locating or constructing engineers of the Canadian Northern have been able to find it. "But there is more behind this crossing of the Height of Land than the mere shattering of sentiment; there is the commercial aspect of the thing to be considered. The big plateau which Is the highest part of Ontario is well wooded with a fine quality of white pine. 8he cutting of timber in this county was not a good proposition commercially for the reason that had the logs been skidded Into the rivers north of the Divide, they would have found their way into James Bay. With the building of the railway tills difficulty has been overcome, for the enterprise of the Canadian Northern will make possible the marketing of the timber in the big markets of thet south. "The rails are now past Ruel, wliich station, by the way, was named after the (liief solicitor of the C.N.It., and a big staff of men is pushing the line ever onward toward the meeting with the construction men who are working simultaneously eastward from Port Arthur. "Henry K. Wicksteed, tlie chief engineer of locations for the Canadian Northern, hasn't any doubt as to the ability of the belt through which the steel passes to give a good living to several million people. He believes implicitly that at least two millions can be located in comparative comfort in the country adjoining and to the north of the Canadian Northern lines. The almost innumerable lakes and rivers abound with fish—trout, Sturgeon and whitefish-—affording one sure food supply. The land Is of good quality, even if light, and should be very productive. The old Idea prevailing in the older sections of Ontario that the new land was but a barren waste has been shattered and the colonlz- Although the Canadian Highway Association has only been in existence for one month, the work it has accomplished in this short space of time is conclusive proof that the organization will be an important factor in the development of this country by the building of good roads, says a New Westminster dispatch. Letters of encouragement have been received by the officers from many cities in the east, and from Hazelton, Dawson and Alberni, the latter the western terminus of the proposed Canadian highway. Alberni was last week visited by a travelling representative of the Canadian Highway Association, who found every business man in that town in hearty sympathy with the objects of the association. Nanaimo and Victoria have also been canvassed, and each city has added considerably to the strength of the membership of this body. W. W, Foster, deputy minister of public works, in a letter to W. J. Kerr, president of the association, outlines the following route as the most practicable for the construction of British Columbia's portion of the Canadian highway: Alberni to Victoria, via Nanaimo; Vancouver, Westminster, Hope, Princeton, Rossland, thence to Trail, cross the Columbia by the new bridge now in course of erection, and via Summit Creek, along the Old Dewdney trail to Cres- ton, and thence following the main trunk road into Alberta. While this route cannot be considered final until all the reports from the surveyors and engineers have been submitted to the department of public works, it is not likely that any important deviation will be made.'

KUGLER Limited It is the prerogative of royalty to have a style of its own, and in this respect Queen Mary is a notable example. Brought up from her. earliest years in a simple, unostentatious manner, she has never adopted the extremes of fashion. Her taste has inclined her to graceful, dignified modes such as become her fine, handsome figure, and the example which she sets proves an excellent influence in checking the taste for bizarre styles. The Queen has never worn a hobble skirt, much less a harem costume, and in face of the persistent and almost universal attempt of fashion arbiters and leaders to induce women to array themselves in frocks of the scantiest materials, Her Majesty held to her own mode of reasonably ample skirts, and has thereby won the gratitude of British manufacturers. Last May, when the Queen's dislike of the light, scanty skirts was made known, court dressmakers received back their clients' costumes in hot haste to put an extra breadth into the skirts. Some grumbled at the trouble and disarrangement which this caused in the workrooms, but time has shown how wisely was the Queen's influence directed, not only towards the discountenancing of an exftreme and awkward mode, but to promoting increased trade in dress stuffs. The new fashion was reducing costumes to a minimum of material; manufacturers and drapers were be- gining to find that the quantity of goods ordered was falling off, and that, too, in the Coronation season, when most people were having more clothes new than usual and record sales were anticipated. If the Queen's influence did not kill the scanty skirt, it certainly stemmed the tide of fashion towards greater extremes, and put many thousands of pounds into the pockets of both manufacturers and retailers of ladies' dress materials. The wisdom of the Queen's example was shown by the aftermath of unemployment amongst the makers of ladies' underskirts which followed the adoption of the hobble skirt. For not only does that narrow garment take a small amount of stuff to make it, but it precludes the wearing of skirts underneath, and in consequence the Northampton girls lost their occupation in the making of underskirts and were put to less profitable work. The recent strike and lockout of some 1,200 girls followed. Turning to headgear, the Queen's influence has been entirely on the side of moderation as to size. Nei- their Her Majesty nor Princess Mary ever wear large hats. Many years ago Queen Alexandra Introduced that most bewitchingly becoming and compact form of headgear known as the Princess bonnet, which ladies have of late been content to leave to the almost exclusive possession of nurses. The light, small toque followed in the train of the Princess bonnet and still holds its own. For many years Queen Mary favored the small toque above all other kinds of headgear, hut she lias recently adopted a style of her own in a hat of moderate size with a neat small brim shading tlie eyes. Trimmed high on the left side with flowers or ostrich plumes, the Queen's hat achieves a happy medium between the closely fitting toque and the modern broad brimmed hat. The Queen's taste in views may further be instanced as an example of her influence in preserving simple and becoming fashions. Her example has kept the spotted net in use In spite of the recurrent crazes for large spotted and curiously patterned veils which in extreme cases distorted the features! of the wearer, and gave the effect of a black crocodile running across the face, or an alligator attempting to climb one's cheek bones. The Queen Is a good business woman, and prides herself on being thoroughly practical. There is no thoughtless extravagance In matters of the royal wardrobe.

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL SPORTS WOLGAST IS RECOVERING Followers of the boxing game are saying today that it will be a year before Wolgast will be able to battle again. He is in a Los Angeles hospital recovering from an attack of appendicitis and an operation for the relief of that national pastime. The year dope is wrong. Wolgast was in perfect condition when nthe attack struck him and athletes, if the operation is performed by a capable surgeon and quickly enough, make very rapid recoveries. They do not lose strength or vitality. If Wolgast has the proper care he could tight again within two months if necessary. But as the appendicitis operations always seem to bring a tendency towards increased weight, Wolgast may find himself having trouble in a short time to make the lightweight limit. CANADIAN RECORDS The new Canadian athletic records officially passed by the A. A. U. of C. are given below. The list includes one world's record, the throwing of the 56-pound weight for distance by M. J. McGrath of tbe Irish-American A. C. of New York, made at the Union's championships at Montreal on September 24 last. A complete table of present records 1b appended hereto: 60 yards run—L. J. Sebert, 6 3-5 seconds; October 29, 1910, at Toronto Armories (indoor). No previous recorded mark. 100 yards run—F. L. Lukeman, 9 4-5 seconds; June 4, 1910, at Toronto Island. Equals Canadian record. 300 yards run—F. L. Lukeman, 35 3-6 seconds; April 29, 1911, at indoor Ontario championships at Hamilton Armory. This is recorded as an Indoor record. 600 yards run—John Tressider, 1 minute 20 1-5 seconds; April 29, 1911; at Ontario indoor championships at Hamilton Armory. Allowed as an indoor record.' 1,000 yards run—John Tressider, 2 minutes 22 1-5 seconds; April 29, 1911, at Ontario indoor championships at Hamilton Armory. This betters I. S. Parke's mark of 2 minutes 26 2-5 seconds made at Toronto, April 25, 1908. Standing broad jump—A. Quinn, 10 feet 4 1-2 inches; made at police games, Toronto, 1904, by representative of Ottawa police. This replaces the mark of 10 feet 2 1-2 inches made by G. H. Barer at Olympic trials, Toronto, May 23, 1908. One mile relay race (four men)— Boston A. A., 3 minutes 24 3-5 seconds; made at Canadian championships, Montreal, September 24, 1911, and replaces the times of 3 minutes 28 3-5 seconds previously held by the team of the University of Toronto. Throwing 16-pound weight for distance—M. J. McGrath, 182 feet 4 inches; at Canadian championships; Montreal, September 24, 1911. This extends McGrath's own mark of 17o feet 7 inches, made at the 1907 championships. Throwing 56-pound weight for distance—M. J. McGrath of Irish- American A. C, New York, 40 feet 6 3-4 inches; made at Canadian championships, Montreal, September 24, 1911. This remarkable performance, which is also a world's record, replaced the old mark of 37 feet made by Duncan Gilles at Vancouver, September 18, 1909. McGrath broke the record twice during the day his other throw being 40 5 3-4 inches. , YEAR'S RECORDS In glancing back over the performances of American track and field athletics during the Outdoor season of 1911, it is gratifying to note the number of records equalled and broken. In almost every branch of the sport new figures were created and they show as nothing else could how constant und consistent Is the development of champions, During the past summer, world's marks that had stood the test of time for ten, fifteen and even twenty-five years, went by the board, as well as quite recent ones probably harder to dethrone, because each part of a second clipped or inch added makes so much more difficult the task of the next comers. The list of records here appended is not complete, but it shows that some good work was done: R. C. Craig of Michigan University was the first to attain record form. At the Pennsylvania relay carnival In Philadelphia on May 6 he equalled Bernie Wefer's world's standard of 21 1-5 seconds for sprinting 220 yards, and this time he made twice at the intercollegiate games in Cambridge on May 27. At the latter meet sensational performances were shown in middle dis tance running by T. S. Berna and J. P. Jones, both of Cornell. Jones, who is now acclaimed the best mller ever produced by any country, stepped the mile in 4 minutes 15 2-5 seconds, taking from Tommy Con- neff the former mark of 4 minutes 15 3-5 seconds, which had rested peacefully since 1895; and Berna, in the two-mile race, breasted the tape In 9 minutes 21 1-5 seconds, pushing aside the record of 9 minutes 26 3-5 seconds, which he had himself created a year before. On May 28, at Celtic Park, Martin Sheridan of the American Athletic Association, contributed one of his numerous discus throwing standards. He sent the missile 141 feet 4 3-8 inches, and the best previous distance, to his own credit, wsb 140 feet 10 1-2 inches. Matt McGrath of the New York Athletic Club scored on the same day with the 3 o-pound weight. The event was a new one and he won it with 53 feet 11 inches, which established a record. The Irish-American games at Celtic Park on May 30 saw three of the home men win titles. Daniel Ahearn spanned 50 feet 11 inches in the hop, step and jump, as against his own mark of 49 feet 7 3-4 inches; Gwyn Henry, the former Texas sprinter, lowered Charles Sehrill's time of 1889 for running 125 yards from 12 2-5 seconds to 12 1-' seconds, and John J. Eller negotiated 250 yards of low hurdles in 29 1-5 seconds, putting quite a dent into George Schwegler's record of 31 4-5 seconds, also of the 1889 vintage. George Bonhag of the Irish-American Athletic Ciub demonstrated on June 3 that he had lost none of his great speed by running three miles in 14 minutes and ^2 seconds, which dislodged W. Day's mark ot 24 minutes 39 seconds, untouched since 1890. John Eller added to his many laurels on the following day, when he took 75 yards of low timber in :09 1-5, supplanting the record of :09 2-5, held jointly by himself, his brother Robert and Roger Bacon. At the above meet Daniel Ahearn also scored, boosting his own recently made mark for the hop-step-and- jump from 60 feet 11 inches to 51 feet 4 1-2 inches. On June 11 It was the turn of Piatt Adams, the versatile all round athlete of the New York, A. C, to distinguish himself. He covered ing away from M. W. Ford the stand- 103 feet in nine standing jumps, tak- ard of 100 feet 4 inches, which he had held since 1885. It Is worthy of mention, too, that Dan Ahearn, who jumped within a few inches of Adam's, also beat Ford's figures. At the national championships in Pittsburg on June 3 and July 1 only one record was broken and one equalled, although the cream of the country's athletes were on hand. OI- lie Snedigar of the Olympic Club of San Francisco hurled the javelin 165 feet 2 inches, beating B. Brood's best previous throw of 163 feet 1 inch, and John Eller, I. A. A. A., took 220 yards of low hurdles in 0:24 4-5, equalling the world's time. T. T. Cooke, the former Cornell athlete, now representing the Cleveland A. 0„ cleared the bar at 13 feet in the pole vault, but did not give enough throuw to the pole in leaving it, and it tumbled after him, carrying the horizontal stick with it. Had it not been for this unfortunate occurrance he would now hold the world's honors, for the record by Leland Scott is 12 feet 10 7-8 inches. The fall games of the I. A. A. A. on September 5 were again the occasion for a triangular record breaking feat. Martin McGrath, now competing unattached, threw the fifty-six pound weight 39 feet 9 inches, beating Flanagan's best performance of 38 feet 8 Inches; Louis Scott of the South Paterson A. C. disposed of an international mark by running 5,000 eters (approximately 3 miles 85 yards) In 15:23 1-5, and an I.A.A.A. team made up of Sheppard Gissing, Pioneer Steam Laundry WHITE LABOR ONLY IM) AWAY WITH THIS!

Be sure that it is right, then don't wait. The owners take a chance with you. They put up the coal lands and you put up the money to prove the coal, one-half of the stock for you, and one-half for them. This is one of the fairest and best offers ever made to the public under ironclad conditions. A business proposition from start to finish, there is nothing on the market like it. Leases and Crown grants to aver 3,500 acres of the best coal lands on Queen Charlotte Islands are being conveyed free from all encumbrances to the Northern Anthracite Collieries, Ltd., capital stock 1,500,000 shares, par value of $1.00 each; one-half of this stock for the treasury and one-half for the owners of the land. The first 100,000 of these shares of par value of $1.00 each, non-assessable and fully paid up, are to be sold at 15c, 5c with application, 5c in 30 days and 5c in 60 days. The proceeds from this block of stock will be used proving these coal lands with a Diamond Drill under special contract, and in charge of competent management. It is expected that the proceeds from this first block of stock will be sufficient to put down at least three or more boreholes of 1,000 feet each. This will undoubtedly cut one or two seams of splendid coal—then see your stock jump. Satisfactory tenders have been accepted and a contract let to the Diamond Drill Contracting Company of Spokane, Wash., for the boring and drilling operations. As an emergency, and to be absolutely on the safe side, a further block of 100,000 shares of treasury stock will be offered at 25c per share, 5c on application and 5c per month until paid, as soon as the first block has all been subscribed. Now, use your own judgment., but consider carefully what your chances are of making $85.00 on an investment of $15.00 in six months, or $1,000 on an investment of $150.00, for as sure as the sun rises and sets this stock will go to $1.00 at least as soon as the drill cuts through the seams of splendid coal that are surely there, according to all experts' reports of the highest obtainable authority, who have reported on the Queen Charlotte Islands coal measures as follows: T. R. Marshall, F.C.S., 1902; Dr. George M. Dawson, D. S., A.R.A.R.S.M., F.G.S., 1878; H. E. Parrish, John J. Langdale, 1867; James Deans, 1872; James Parkinson, 1888; R. W. Ellis, 1906; T. B. Cory, of the State of Washington, U. S. A., and our own expert, C. F. J. Galloway, B.Sc, who is among the best authorities In B. C. These reports cover first the Wilson-Robinson coal fields, three miles north of this coal land; second, the Old Cowgate coal fields, almost adjoining on the west; third, the Alfred Bay coal fields on the south; and fourth, the company's own coal, all of which are positive evidence that this is one of the best coal fields on the Queen Charlotte Islands. Situate on Graham Island, Bearskin Bay, one of the best harbors in the north, at the gateway of transportation to all points of the world, and at the very doors of Queen Charlotte City; in fact, a portion of this coal underlies the townsite. No railroads to build—just lead the coal from the mines to the boats. These are facts that defy contradiction, and within five days the Diamond Drill will be on the ground and in operation. This is the only way anyone can tell how many millions of tons of coal there is in the property. All applications will be filed in order received, and only 100,000 will be sold at 15c. How many times in your life have you had a chance like this? A square deal for once at least in a stock proposition, with almost a certainty of the stock being worth $1.00 before you have made your third payment at 15c. Do not hesitate. Send in your application today. For further information call or write to the head office of the company, 506 Pacific Building, where the report, of C. F. J. Galloway, B.S.C., on this coal land can be seen. His report is all that could be asked, practically saying that the coal is there beyond a doubt, with sufficient evidence in sight to warrant drilling and development work at once. Paragraph From Mr. Galloways Report "The easiest seam to prove will be the Cowgitz, as its horizon, is known. I should, therefore, recommend you to put down a borehole near the eastern end of your easternmost section. At the point marked C on the map the position of this seam should be passed through at a depth of about 500 feet, the Camp Anthracite seam being probably passed through In the same hole, if it occurs at all in this locality." All promoters' stock is to be pooled until $200,000 has been raised for the purpose of developing the mine. In conclusion, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that your money is all goinng into proving the coal is there, not into the promoters' pockets nor to pay for a dead horse of any kind, as the coal leases and titles are all paid for and clear of all encumbrances and will always be a valuable asset.

HEXI9 CONTRACTOR WINS AS TO DAMAGES (Continued From Page Three) at hand to control hundreds of men on strike. "They could have got them," suggested Mr. Williams. Best Done by City "Perhaps they could," returned the court, "but after tlie event I am not going to. sit in judgment. I would not as a judge sitting here be prepared under all the circumstances when life and death were at issue to pass judgment upon the actions of tho police force and the civic authorities, who were on the ground, and say that they were negligent in their duty. "It Is probable that the very best was done under the conditions that could be done." Mr. Williams contended that there was an absolute duty upon the corporation to provide protection. His Lordship said he could find no authorities that went to show that this was to serve as a guarantee to contractors. Me wanted to know it Mr. Williams had found any case In which a corporation had been made to pay for failing to give this protection. Mr. Williams said that he had not. His Lordship said he was not go;* ing to make a precedent. Mr. Williams said that If there had been an adequate force there would have been no trouble. His Lordship: "Well, it's easy to say that after the event." His Lordship immediately pro ceeded to give judgment In the case. Taking the statement of claim of the plaintiffs, he disposed of the items in succession. As to the claim of 5750 for removing waste from the lots, he said the city's claim 'was clearly one of damages. The sum wliich the city proposed to retain would be as trustee for the pwner. No claim was before him on the part of any of the owners against the city. If the case were made out a contractor was insolvent or there was an Insolvent surety or a claim against tlie city, a case might be made out to obtain a sum. He would strike this claim oul and order Ihe $750 paid to the contractor. On the old lumber count he would allow the city $100. Tlie burden was on the city to show the amount of lumber taken. It was impossible io keep an exact account of the lumber taken. On the point of liquidated damages His Lordship said he would give a deduction of fifty days to cover tho strike period and other delays. Would Have Reserved Derision Ho could not regard this amount. named in the contract as pre-estlmat- eed, but In view of the case quoted by Mr. Peters, the view might be that later authorities looked upon the point differently to what he bad expressed his view. He would have reserved judgment on this point had it not been for the evidence of the city engineer that there had been an error of judgment, in fixing tlie time. Were the legal points the only ones, he would have reserved judgment. But according to the engineer the time was inequitable. He put the odium on the city of seeking a decision on a legal point when in the matter of justice and common honesty it had not a leg to stand on. He allowed $3,300 on this point. On the point of $92.50 for extra removal of muskeg, he allowed that claim. As to the allowance claimed for extras on account of the city introducing retaining walls, he found no balance of disadvantage against the contractors and decided in favor of the city. Ou tlie culvert he found no loss to the contractors. This point was covered in the contract, the city being allowed to proceed with its work during the progress of the work. As to Strike As to the strike, he remained of the same opinion as previously stated. The first question as far as the corporation was concerned was as to whom it owed a duty. It was not to tlie contractors alone. Il was to the whole community, and even beyond that. It was a discretionary power that was reposed in it. It was a delicate question for a judge to sit in judgment after tlie event and call in judgment the actions of those charged with tlie enforcement of the law. He bad found no negligence em the part of lhe corporation. It •eiiglit very well leave been hi the best interests of the city. Ile could not see that any claim was recoverable .by the contractors. The city was not responsible for damages. This did not modify in any degree his feeling as to the iniquity of the city to attempt to recover from the contractors for loss during the time of the strike. He found that there was to he a large amount of waste to he dumped on low lying lots. Later this was wound would not be allowed. It was.- understood then that no waste would be deposited below Beach Place. He would allow 2 5 cents a yard for 2,000 yards deposited below Beach P?ace, or $500, on that count. A Repriiiiniitl As to costs, the natural order would be to allow general costs to ihe plaintiff, deducting thai in which the other side hud succeeded. This would be hard to work out. Me had therefore decided to apportion them himself. There had been a loss of time early in the case from an unwarranted attempt on behalf of the plaintiff in establish a claim that there was no time iimll and nisei to attach oil i to the city engineer on a charge of collueion. On these points they had failed entirely, and he felt they Bbould be penalized o an extent. He would allow rilaln- til'f two-thirds of tho costs of tlie action. Alex. Manson, representing Williams & Mil- on, Bald there hud been no Intention on the part of his firm to easl any reflections. "You made a distinctly ill choice of your English then,*' returned His Lordship. Mr. Manson admitted that perhaps they had, hut pleaded that they were both young men in practice. He did •Lot think it should call for reduced counsel fees as there had been a lot of work involved. His Lordship said he would allow the two of them $100 a day counsel : fees. Kelly Gels Judgment In the case of Kelly vs. City of Prince Rupert, tried a few days before, Ills Lordship gave judgment immediately following the other, ilo gave judgment for the plaintiff with costs.

Superintendent of Insurance Gives Timely Information and Warns Those Interested Ernest F. Gunther, superintendent of insurance for the province of British Columbia, was issued a bulletin intended to serve as a warning to those who are concerned in preparing for Christmas celebrations. He points out some of the dangers that should be avoided in this. The bulletin sets forth the following facts: Christmas Holiday Hazards Fires due to carelessness In connection with the decoration of stores, churches, schools and homes for the Christmas season are more numerous than is generally imagined. Complete statistics are not available, but information collected shows that such fires are numerous, costly from a money standpoint, and attended with much suffering ami deplorable loss of life. It is estimated that last year there were 500 such fires in the United States. It cannot he too often insisted that the majority of fires is preventable. Decorations are dangerous. There should be no carelessness. Instances of Carelessness It is careless to tamper with electric wiring to produce or facilitate displays; to use cotton batting in a show window and on or under a Christmas tree to represent snow; To allow the inexperienced and thoughtless to do the decorating; to hang inflammable material where it touches or may he pushed or blown against stove pipes, steam pipes, lamps, gas, or electric lights; to use celluloid ornaments in decorating; to allow children to light candles on a tree; to leave matches where children can get them for the purpose; to allow children to touch an illuminated tree; to leave an illuminated tree unwatched; to allow paper and rubbish to accumulate in the premises and about the furnace, owing to pressure of business. Last Year's Experience A few of last year's Christmas fires are set forth as follows: Boy's costume, trimmed with cotton batting, caught fire from candle, boy and a visitor being slightly burned; scholar fatally burned, due to her clothes catching fire from candle on school Christmas tree; another scholar fatally burned from same cause at another school; fire was caused by a toy motion picture machine; the film, while heing exhibited, flapped over on to top of lamp and ignited; children ignited cotton decorations used to represent snow around Christmas tree, the fire spreading throughout first floor and members of family seriously burned; children In lighting candles on Christmas tree set fire to decorations; cat upset Christinas tree, doing $100 damage; gas jet set fire to Christmas decorations. Mercantile A lighted candle ignited decorations in show windows of hardware Btore; fire spread rapidly, due to holly, mistletoe and smilax decoration; store profusely decorated with evergreen boughs and festoons ignited from defective electric wiring; fire spread rapidly and burned fiercely; loss, $212,154. Suggestions The instances quoted all suggest what should be avoided. If read with the word "Don't" before them, they become rules. "Don't tamper with electric wiring." Smoking should not he allowed where there are inflammable decorations. Inflammable means "apt to take fire." Asbestos fibre will represent snow. Metallic tinsel is better than paper. Let there be no Christmas horrors in British Columbia. SOLVE THE XMAS PROBLEM Telephone 82 C. H.

It would be difficult to praise too highly the exhaustive "abor of the commissioners of which the report is the fruit. But for one thing, it might he said that for the next ten or twenty years no other province need appoint a royal commission to report on the subject of tuberculosis, so thoroughly have the Quebec commissioners covered the ground; and that is the fact, made plain in the report itself, that circumstances in one province, as regards consumption, may differ very .widely from those in another. Quebec has revealed conditions not encountered elsewhere, and the conduct of thet anti-tuberculosis crusade in that province must be plrnned with a view to these special conditions. It is doubtful if anywhere else in the world women are more subject to tuberculosis than men; it is doubtful if elsewhere in Canada the death rate from phthisis is almost as high in the country districts as in the cities. In the province of Quebec the death rate from tuberculosis is much higher than it is in Ontario and in the neighboring American states, and is is higher among the French-speaking population of the province than among the English-speaking residents of Quebec. It appears to the commissioners that the causes of this remarkable condition are found in the greater poverty of the Freneh- Canadaion population, the fact that they neglect or are ignorant of many of the simplest rules of health, and that they form the greater number of artisans and laborers and are thus more exposed to the unhygienic influences' of industrial work. The English-speaking population, according to the report, fill the better industrial posts, are better paid in consequence, and live in healthier surroundings. The commissioners say that reform must proceed along the lines of attempting to Improve the conditions of industrial work for the French-Canadians, and disseminating among them a greater knowledge of the laws of health. Regarding the remarkable fact that in Quebec women fall more readily victims to the disease than men, the commissioners say that for the six winter months, the women of the province, as a rule, spend most of their time immured indoors, and to preserve warmth the houses are too frequently sealed against any fresh air. Even In the summer it is the custom to keep the blinds down and the windows closed in order to make the houses moderately cool. They mention the fact that the high birth rate among rench- Canadian women may also be a factor, since, following childbirth, the resistance to infection of any sort is lowered. There is also to be considered the fact that the larger families of the French-Canadians make necessary the huddling together of many persons in small rooms, a condition that is highly favorable to the development of the tubercle bacilli. More than twice as many French- Canadian women die of tuberculosis, according to population, as English women. Compared with the incidence of the disease in the male sex, that among the women is as 222 compared with 164. As regards the relation of climate to the disease, the commissioners find that, apart from the effects of people keeping too much indoors, it is an insignificant, one. The disease is slightly more prevalent in March than in any other month in tlie year, and is slightly less prevalent in September. They do not fail to point to the probability of the germs of the disease, which manifests themselves in the spring and summer, having established themselves in the winter months. Cold in itself is not more favorable to the growth of the bacilli than heat, and the report quotes approvingly tue words of Dr. Trudeau, who says: "It is not such much where the consumptive lives as how he lives that is of the most importance." The climate of Quebec is not necessarily more favorable for the spread of the disease than that of British Columbia. Just how serious the problem of tuberculosis is for the province of Quebec may be judged from the fact that one-third of all the deaths in the province are attributed to it. It is more deadly than all other infectious diseases combined. Only in fantile diarrhoea of the all specific diseases commits greater ravages. In tuberculosis more than half the victims fall between the ages of 15 and 34, and more than one-third between the ages of 20 and 45. Only two states in the Union, which keep accurate records, have a higher death rate; that in Montreal is probably higher than any other city on this continent or in the Britisii Isles, and in comparison with seventeen civilized countries, Quebec stands sixth as regards the death rate from tuberculosis. A first long stride toward Improving her position has been made by the publication oil the valuable report from which these facts are taken. o NECKLACE SOLD FOR $184,000 Small Part of Abdul llamid's Gems Bring $540,000 at Auction Held in Palis What is announced to be the largest sale of jewels on record opened recently in the Georges Petit Picture Gallery, Paris, when the valuable collection of Abdul Hamid, formerly Sultan of Turkey, came under the hammer.
