DOMINION BAY IS TO BE FITTINGLY OBSERVED AT THE INTERIOR POINT. Local Baseball Team Going—Conservatives Have Withdrawn Arrangements to Suit. The town of Hazelton is going to celebrate in a grand fashion on Dominion Day. Arrangements are now beiu-; made for a grand excursion from byre ro the Interior town, where a full programme of sports will take place. In connection with them there will be local teams taking part, including the baseball and football aggregations. Plans were well advanced here for for the holding of the Conservative picnic that bad been arranged for earlier in the month, but. yesterday it was decided in view of the circumstances that the picnic would be withdrawn and thus leave the day- clear for the sports up the line. It was found that the people of Hazelton had gone to a lot of trouble and expense in connection with the day's celebration that they were putting on and the holding of the picnic it was feared might seriously interfere with the attendance from here at the interior point. It was therefore decided that the Conservatives would withdraw their excursion and allow all who wished to go all the way to Hazelton to do so. A deputation representing the Hazelton celebration committee con sisting of Messrs. Aldous, Hethering- ton and Moseley Is in town. They have come to confer with the local clubs that are to take part in the games on July 1 and they conferred with the executive of the Conservative Association yesterday afternoon with the result that the Conservatives offered to retire from the field so as to assist the Hazelton Com mittee to carry out its programme without any Interruption, At the same time the Conservatives arranged thai If nothing Interfered! wilh the date tho Conservative picnic would be put on al Terrace on Labor Day, September 1.

In liiis (-011110(11011 the position of Prince Rupert as a port through which shipping may be done by tlie canal is an excellent one. Leaving Prince Rupert a vessel will pass south througii Hecate Straits. When it is taken into consideration that the vessel leaving Seattle, Vancouver or Victoria must navigate long stretches of inland waters where pilots are deemed absolutely necessary it can be seen that In point of time the advantages are probably with Prince Rupert, while in point of distance even, this port Is little farther than the more southern ones. Prince Rupert as the first port of call from the Orient will possess great advantages in all the shipping that must pass through here. o SIR EDWARD GREY WISHES TO RESIGN Meteorological Report.

Advertising Rales Upon Application. A YEAR PAPER. Saturday, June 21, 1911 THE INTERCOLONIAL. Hon. Frank Cochrane has undertaken to put the Intercolonial Railway on a genuine business basis Other ministers have said that they were going to do this, but Mr. Coch rane strikes everyone who has had anything to do with him as one who means what be says, or who will at least leave nothing undone to ac complish a programme that he announces. The changes in administration that he has brought about already in the Government road has caused great grief to those who have regarded it as a convenience for local politicians. Now he has appointed as general manager a high priced railway man, Mr. F. E. Guitelius, whose salary has been fixed at $20,000 a year. Mr. Guitelius has a reputation at stake and takes over the work on the condition that he has a perfectly free hand. THE FISHING CENlivE. Every day adds to the conviction on the part of those who follow the trend of events nere that this is to be pre-eminently the fishing centre of the Pacific Coast. The farther north the different varieties of fish are taken the better the quality. As a result the catches that are made in these waters are superior to those that are taken farther south. The variety of fishing that there is to be developed here is also one of the marvels of part. All kinds seem to be close at hand. In this respect the visitors from the United Kingdom do not fail to remark upon the fact that so many varieties of fish are to be taken here and within such easy- reach of the city. Unique Periodical That Is Issued in the Far North Land. There exist several journals that make their appearance only once a year. These are published within ihe confines of the norih polar circle. The i-jsiumo Bulletin, for example, is edited near Cape Prince of Wales, in Behring Strait. Here, in a village inhabited by Eskimos, the English missionaries have established a school, and as only one steamer labels at this place, and that only once a year, the news that it brings is consigned to a sheet of paper printed with the lniinegrapb. Its size is eight by twelve inches. The paper is very thick and only one surface is used. This Eskimo Bulletin in a subhead claims to be the "only yearly paper." This, however, is an error, for there is an annual sheet published in Godthaab, Greenland, where a small printing office was established in 1862, whence news sheets and lithographic prints have been issued. The Journal in question is entitled Atnagagdlintlt, Nalinginarmik Tus- arumiiiasassiimik, that is "Something for reading; accounts of all sorts of entertaining subjects." The language is that of Greenland, a dialect of the Eskimos. - v.f.T+44.44444 4 E^HMMHMMMMMHMMHMMMMI * *-***+# LUMBER Coal, Cement, Plaster and Brick AND A COMPLETE LINE OF BUILDERS' SUPPLIES - WESTHOLME LUMBER CO., LTD. j First Avenue Prince Rupert felephone 186 I ***kk**********************■**t**********ic***^,k^**k*^■■e E.

The story was that Vasco Nunez de Balboa descended the western slopes and rushed into the sea waving the flags of Aragon and Sastiie over bis head. The name of Pacific Ocean was due to the young son of the chief of Comogre, who gave Vasco Nunez information of its existence. He said that the other great ocean was smooth, and never rough like the Caribbean Seu. From this time until his death the aim of the discoverer's life was to navigate this Pacific Ocean He had entreated the vented him from being present, and!

Markham, in hisjence at court, to supersede him with paper, said that their hero that night I a large force. Pedrarias brought was Vasco Nunez de Balboa, one of the best of the Spanish conquerors, 'one who overcame by far the great est difficulties by the most praiseworthy methods, whose life was as romantic as his death was deplorable and sad. His achievement was the discovery of the Pacific Ocean 400 years ago. It was impossible for any man who achieved greatness to have begun in more depressing and apparently hopeless circumstances. Two great expeditions had been sent from Spain and San Domingo to form colonies on the coasts from Carthagena to Veragua. Both were mismanaged, their leaders were dead, survivors were scattered along the coasts, dying of fevers and starvation, the miserable remnant in the fort af the Gulf of Darien came away in a rickety, leaky craft, nut were sent back. The problem was to turn this disastrous mess into a thriving colony without outside help. Few would attempt it. Much fewer could succeed. And who was the coining man? A penniless fugitive, with no authority, no official appointment of any kind, one who was In Enctsco's ship, headed up in a cask to escape from his creditors. Thus they first heard of Nunez de Balboa. Was Born Lender, Bncisoo landed him among the forlorn people at be fort In the Gulf of Darien, and then departed. He was recognized at once as a born leader. He bad a magnetic Influence over men, who were led to feel confidence in him. Even the tierce Frnncisco Pizarro, who was older and actually in charge, at once became his follower. The first care of Vasco Nunez was to gather together the scattered remnants of the former expeditions, 'this was a most difficult service, but thanks to the energy of one man it. was done. He fed the hungry, nursed the sick, allotted lands, and helped to build huts for the ablobodicd, and things began to Improve. Rut ihe supply of food was the great difficulty. Here the misconduct of predecessors in the robbery and cruel treatment of the natives formed the main obstacle. Vasco Nunez had to gain (heir confidence, and to overcome lheir suspicions aroused by the cruellies Of Ojedn and others who had gone before him. lie succeeded with the natives just as he had succeeded with his own countrymen. Ills conciliatory address won over warlike tribes who had been burning under a sense of cruel injuries unavenged. Vet he had to wander far to gather In provisions. In time, however, Is wise policy, bis energy and patience overcame all obstacles, markets were well filled at the gates of his fort, and confidence In the great leader's integrity and justice was established. There was one rickety little craft at Ills command and he sent it to San Domingo with an earnest request for help, and for recognition. The admiral, the son of Columbus, responded to both requests. Two vessels were dispatched laden with provisions, and Vasco Nunez received from the Audiancia of San Domingo the appointment of Alcalde Mayor, or chief magistrate of ihe colony he had created. First Sight of Pacific. Vasco Nunez then gave his attention to the discovery of the isthmian region, to collecting Informa- with him a bishop, who was a good man, able to appreciate the work of Vasco Nunez, but he also brought a gang of adventurers of the worst type. Launching of Ships. It was due to the intervention of the good Bishop Quevedo that Vasco Nunez was at last allowed to undertake the launch of ships on the Pacific Ocean. He had seen all his wise policy reversed, the friendly natives turned into enemies, and he had written a despairing letter to the Emperor, Vasco Nunez took the first step by sending one Francisco Gara- vita to Cuba to bring back the materials for building the ships. A part was formed at a place called Acia, where the materials were to be landed, and when a road was to be made over the mountains to the other side of the isthmus. The timbers were cut and fashioned at Acia, where the ironwork, cordage, and the rest of the ship's furniture were landed. The chief of Careta, who was the father-in-law of Vasco Nunez, sup- I lied the carriers to convey all this across the mountains. There was much Buffering from want of provisions, bul finally the materials were conveyed across to the shores of the Gulf of San Miguel. The work of building Ihe ships was then begun, and after innumerable difficulties they were finally completed end launched. He had four xessels and three hundred men ready to navigate I the South Seas. An Unheeded Prediction. A Venetian astrologer had once told Vasco Nunez that wjien be should see a certain star, which he named, in a certain pari of the heavens his life would be In danger. One evening after the ships were ready to sail he saw the fatal star In the quarter indicated by the astrologer. He laughed al the prediction. The very next clay he received an urgent message from Pedrarias requiring him to come al once to Acia, as his advice was needed on a question of importance. Quite unsuspicious of any treachery, Vasco Nunez set out a! once to obey the summons, .lusi outside the settlement of Acia he was arrested and bound by his former friend and follower Francisco Pizarro. They need not dwell op the particulars of the murder. It was not even n Judicial murder, for the Judge Esplnasa protested, it took place in i r, i t, when Vasco Nunez wns in hie forty-second year. The death of Vasco Nunez was one of the greatest calamities that and Judicious as he was firm of purpose and Indomitable of will. Y; t this great man was destined to fall through the mean jealousy of an incapable ruffian placed in power througii court Influence. Other Explorers. Sir Clements Markham then referred to a number of subsequent explorers in the Pacific-, Including Juan Fernandez, Magellan, and l'i- daneta, and in this connection paid a warm tribute to the memory of Captain Scott and his companions. In the course of the subsequent discussion Sir Edward Thurn observed that it was highly probable that the Pacific was seen before Nunez's time by white men, though there was no record of it. Lord Curzon, in proposing a vole of thanks to Sir Clements Markham. said it was not a bad thing that sometimes they should diverge from the track of contemporary exploration, and, in the hands of a cojnpe- tent guide like Sir Clements jjark- ham explore the records and praise the achievements of men of a bygone j day. Lord Curzon referred to Keats' j famous sonnet about "a peak In | Darien," which Sir Clements Markham had quoted, substituting the name of his hero "Nunez" for the name "Cortes." The error on the part of Keats, if it was an error, seemed to him a very pardonable one. No doubt if the geographical society had existed in those days, and if the poet Keats had been a member, he could not possibly have committed it. Y OUR best play on the "19th."

Tin- trial «us remarkable in that the new craft lifted Itself Into the air almost from a standstill, the distance of actual contact with the water being so short that even Mr. Chrlstoffersen, who expected much of his latest Tic ice, was surprised. The craft, if shorn of its engine ind wings, would look nol unlike a round bottomed dory in tho water. When it rises, however, it looks like nothing so much as a huge winged shark flying. Under each bilge is an ice runner on which the vessel will iskld over tho ice as smoothly and taslly as it flashes over the surface Dl lie water or Hies into the air. The air craft is designed so it can be "broken" into several parts and re-assembled easily when needed for use. A duplicate of this one will be built in Mr. Christoffersen's shops immediately. Captain Amundsen will use these water-air-lce machines for land observations from a much greater height than is possible from a mast and for the study of meteorological conditions in the polar regions. 44*4444444.4.44.4,444.44.»*-¥*¥¥*¥*■¥*¥+¥•¥#-¥-¥•¥■*¥*♦* M ¥¥*•¥¥¥¥+ 4 * * ***************************************************** SHIPPING NEWS OF THE BUSY NORTHERN PORT AN '-AIRSHIP LINK.

The machine as used by the company In California Is of the hydroplane type adapted for either air or water navigation and can be operated in such a manner that one route can be easily changed for the other without .serious mishap or delay.

'Our company sees the advantage of locating in this part of the Dominion. Edmonton is in a position where to get to other large centres much distance has to be covered and the aeroplane is the only ultimate and satisfactory solution In the distance-covering business. It will be some time yet. before the aero lines nan compete with railroads in the matter of heavy freight handling, but the time is not far distant when railway stock will not be selling at par as it is now.
