Present: Mayor York, Aid. Smith, Teeter and Arnot. Aid. Smith and Arnot moved that a voucher drawn be changed iu favor of Geo. Kydd, to pay for the Farini interests. Ciirriwl. Moved that a voucher be drawn in the 11111 yor's name to pay for tho Fhiu- ciine Interests, Curried. Aid. Smith and Arnot moved that a voucher lie drawn for the mayor for ?200 to par for the Chandler interests. Curried. These two lots were supposed to have been included iu the $1600 Fletcher deal. It was shown that the back taxes ou the mill property amounted to S103.94, of which the Fletcher interest totalled $71.21. It was decided to deduct this amount from the purchase price. It was announced, too, that Fletcher had after all signed a de?d allowing the property purchased from him to revert to J. A. Anderson, as trustee for the eity. Council adjourned. Monday Kvenluf. All the nieuilxirs of the city council were in their plnce.-* at Monday night's meeting. Mavor York reported the result of his trip to Nelson relative to thc mill- site, and presented deeds for the vari-' ous lots from Miller, Kydd, Johnson, Fletcher, Farini, Fiuucane,aud Chandler. He also reported having deducted S7(i.fi3 in delinquent taxes from the Nelson parties before the purchase money was paid over. Ed Johnson owed his taxes, as well a* $1.89, which the city had paid for him to the government. The various deeds Wsare all made out to J. A. Anderson as the crtyV trusts-e,excepting block F.which would I revert to Fletcher, it being a gift from '' him. In answer to a query the mayor said I there was nothing in the agreement | with ihe mill people compelling the city to turn over the deeds of the mill site to them until they had fullilied their agreement. The deeds would I ic' placed in escrow in the bank and a receipt taken therefor. The titles vrerel all registered aud clear. Moved by Aid. Teeter and McNi isk thai the deeds be turned over to ths*' city solicitor for examination. Carried. Correspondence read: From school | trustees, Kaslo, asking co-operation of city to get the government to pay for increased per capita for non-resident | pupils. Aid. McNeish explained the situation,in that it was meant to cover pupils living outside the city sohool districts. The government allowed $20 a head for each pupil, the city making up all extra cost. It was this additional cost for the outsiders that the government were asked to pay. Last year 1(5 non-resident pupils attended the Slocan school. Letter filed and the clerk ordered to write the department on the subject. City solicitor's letter, read at a previous meeting, was laid over for two weeks. Mayor York's resignation was read. He stated he would like to see action taken on it at once, as he was going away. Aid.McNeish and Smith moved that the letter lie referred back to the mayor for reconsideration, and that he Ik* granted one month's leave of absence. Carried. Chief of Police Armstrong presented his report for April as follows: Arrests made 1, warrants served 2, sum mous served 1, police court cases 2. fines collected $11.50, dog taxes collected $44, dogs destroyed 4, lire alarms 1.

Aid. Teeter and Aid. Arnot moved the second reading of the early closing bylaw No. 18, which was done by the clerk. Aid. Arnot and Worden moved that the council go into committee of the whole to consider the bylaw. Carried. Aid. Smith took the chair. a warm time then ensued, Aid. McNeish endeavoring to have the bylaw amended, so that ho might lx- at liberty to sell goods on holidays and nfter hours at all times, if customers demanded it. Aid. Arnot, who was fathering the bylaw, would not stand for any altwr- ation. He contended that 11 out of the 13 merchant.'* affected had signed a petition asking for the bylaw, and it was not right for any of the aldermen to presume to oppose or amend the bylaw. If the wishes of u majority of tin; merchants were to lie overridden, then he knew of one mnn who would resign. Aid. McNeish took up the cudgels for the other side of the question. He wanted the stores left open till 7 p.m. from May till September and (i p.m. for the balance of the year. It would be a benefit to the working classes. Besides, he wanted every dollar coming his way. Aid. Arnot held that as the stores had lieen closing at 6, to close now at 6.30 was no hardship on anyone. He had lieen as much a friend of the workingman as Aid. McNeish, and it was not justice to make a man in a store work longer than anyone else. Aid. Worden said it didn't concern him much, but he would advise the merchants to consider their own interests and to stay open till 7. He was inclined to oppose the bylaw as it stood. Aid. McNeish moved to amend the bylaw, permitting stores to stay open till 7 o'clock in the summer and 6 for the lialance of the year. Some pretty hot matter was fired across the table, but Aid. Arnot would brook no amendment. Aid. McNeish had not signed the pet ition for the bylaw, and he deemed it pretty -gaily for one man to seek to buck the wishes of the majority. Aid. McNeish was also opposed to having to close his store all day 011 legal holidays, as it was working a hardship both on the public and the merchant, Aid Teeter seconded the motion. To quell the storm, the mayor made an amendment that consideration of the bylaw lie laid over for a week, and that the clerk, as a disinterested party obtain the views of all the inercliauts on the subject. Seconded by Aid. Arnot. Aid. Worden characterized that action as very childish. The council had been petitioned for a bylaw and (hey should act on it. The amendment was put and carried unanimously. After a tough struggle the council extricated themselves from committee of the whole, reported progress, and Appoints*.! Aid. Smith acting mayor during Mayor York's abr-ence. Adjournment. UtfANOK Klin SII.VRK. l.oBiilen Unsslcer rreillrts Bright Future for Wlslle llrtsl. At a recent nieeting, held in London, Eng., of the stockholders of the Loudon Trading Bank, ltd., Wight- inau Coopor.the president, made these remarks: He desired to make a few special observations in regard to silver. There seemed to.be a need of more metallic money. Banking had to some degree saved the circulation of metal, but its usefulness in that direction had about reached its limit. Although we were steadily adding to the supply of gold and silver, still its production was out of all proportion to the world's demand, hence the greed of nations to possess more goldfields. The millions of people in the east, who relied upon America aud Australia for their supply of silver.inight, at no distant date, lie cut short of metal bv the closing of the mines, due to displacing the silver standard for gold. The falling price of silver was cans ing serious damage to commerce in many parts of the world, especially so in China, where the injustice was felt of having to pay the war iudemnity ou a gold basis with a silver currency, and some claim for exemption in this connection was, he believed, being made. It was a well known fact that the great silver deposits of the world were worked out. and as the silvor area was small as compared with the gold area, it would appear to lie safe and wise to open the Indian aud American mints to the free coinage of silver on the terms that prevailed previous to the movement against silver, which had resulted in cheapening the bullion value and upsetting our business relations with silver-using countries nnd so disturbing the power of exchange. BUI Has found Ills Tongue. Big Bill (lalliher, member for Yale- Cariboo, has suddenly found his tongue on behalf of his constituents on the silver-lead industry. On Wednesday night he made a plea in the house of commons for the silver-lead industry of British Columbia. Asked what protection would lie sufficient, he said the Dingley tariff of 2J cents on piglead and J of a cent on corroded lead, was decided on. That would be adequate. Wbat the lead men wanted, was such an adjustment as would place lead products on the samo basis as other products in Canada. Some thing luul liecn said by Mr. Fielding nliout an adjustment of the bounty, which would tide over the miners for a. short time, till a fair adjusting of duties took place, but in addition to this thero must be a bonus, which should be adequate, sufficient and liberal. This should be payable tsi the producer direct, and lie 75 cents a hundred, or enough to give the producer the difference between the price ho receives and $2.50 a hundred. There should be a duty also of 30 per cent ou corroded lead. A night or so after Galliher addressed a public nieeting in Ottawa along the same lines. FKOSFKCTS AUK llltls.HT. Chances are That the Arlington Mill Will bo Krectort. J. Frank Collom, managing director of the Arlington, went out to Spokane on Tuesday, expecting to return next week, While not making anything public just yet regarding the proposed mill for the mine, Mr. Collom stated everything was progressing in a satisfactory manner. The final tests ou the ore would be shortly concludes:! in Spokane by Prof. Parks and then nn announcement would lie made. On Monday the Arlington Sent down to tlio kdioratory 10 sacks of samples and the Ottawa 6, demonstrating the fact that both properties are jointly interested iu the outcome of the esperi ments. I>iiven Ont Isy Water. On Friday the four men who have I wen working the Myrtle group all winter came down the hill, having lieen driven out by a heavy Uow of water encountered in thp drift. Aliout 150 feet of drifting has lieen done on the lead this reason and a marked improvement has been made on the property. There are a number of carloads of o:-e on the dump and it is the intention of the owners later on to sort out a carload and make a shipment. To do this would require a trail or road of two miles to connect the Myrtle with the Ottawa, but it could be built at a small cost, the grade lieing so easy. The ore taken out this year is carrying much more native silver.grey copper and copper pyrites, picked samples of which will give high assays. A 20-ton shipment will give the owners prettv fair returns for their winter's work. Ylrjlur From Frank. MrsT C.

"I sball remain with Miss Miller until ber mother conies," said Brenda, "Dr. Kendall bas arranged it" Alden seemed momentarily to be at a loss for words, but be did not struggle for tbem or labor visibly wltb emotion.

"You will wait bere? it Is very kind of yon." He left tbe room hastily, and Brenda explained bis errand.

You saw me at tbe Thirty-eighth street bouse this afternoon. My nume Is Elmeudorf." Brenda exhibited surprise, but no resentment, merely saying tbat tbe detective's presence was doubtless necessary for reasons unknown to her.

"Yonr advice goes, with nie," Elmendorf hastened to sny; "but I don't think the particular question I had in mind could do any harm." "You may slate It," snid Kcuilall.

"If 1 should te!! you. you'd laugh nt me," replied Elmendorf. "so I wou't do It Just now. But If you shoulil get a good chnnce to ask the question"— "I have already done so, singularly enough." said Brenda. "She wa.s awnke when I returned to the room, and we Epoke of some things that she wished to hnve brought here.

He gave tbe message to Brenda, who glanced at Alden as she took it. He raised bis hand ln a gesture of negation. "Now, look here, all of yon," exclaimed Barnes. "Here's this girl In the"— and he pointed with bis thumb in the supposed direction of Elsie's room— "who's biding what she knows. I don't say It's In this man's Interest, but it's In somebody's Interest; that's sure. Sbe wouldn't be the first woman that's bad tbe nerve to get tbe knife and say nothing. I don't accuse anybody, especially not tbls man, for 1 ain't got a tblng against blm. He's all right so far as I know. But what I say is that the girl ought not- to be getting messages on the quiet" Alden's face was wblte as paper, nnd bis eyes were afire. It ls probable that every bone In Barnes' body ached with anticipation, but he bad been kicked too often ln tbe way of business to flee before tbe actual contact "I've stood all of tbls that my system can absorb," said Kendall, with a seriousness that scarcely fitted with tbe peculiar phrase which had come Into his moutb. "After tbls dime novel nonsense of poisoned bouquets I dou't care to bave anything more from you. Get out!" "You're making a mistake," said Barnes and then backed out of the room, grinning like a monkey, as Kendall advanced toward the door. Brenda replaced the note among the flowers and gave ber free baud to Alden, bidding blm good night "I sball not be far away," be said as tbe woman preceded Kendall out of the room. "There's a lodging bouse next door. I shall get a place to sleep there. Sleep? Well, at least I shall be there. You will not fall to summon me If- If there should be any reason for It?" "You may depend upon me," said Brenda from tbe threshold, where she had paused a moment while be spoke. Kendall went with ber to tbe mouth of the long corridor and then returned to tbe reception room. "That man must be Insane," he said to Elmendorf. "What did he moan by coming bere with such absurdities?" "He didn't believe ln them nny more than you do," replied the detective. "He bad no Idea that tbere wus anything wrong wltb the violets or witb the note. He was simply obeying orders." "Orders r echoed Kendall. "Who could bave ordered hlm to do sucb a thing r "I guess Mr. Alden knows," responded Elmendorf. "And, between ourselves, I think Mr. Alden should have permitted tbe note to be read right here. I bope Miss Miller won't destroy lt" Kendall looked at Alden as If to Inquire whether sucb a tblng was likely, but gleaned no answer. Alden's fnco had resumed Its rigidity, and the expression which It wore was intense, but difficult to read. "However," continued Elmendorf, "If It hadn't been tbat lt would have been something else. You're going to see a good deal of this sort of tblng tn the next few days, Mr. Alden." "A good deal of what?" said Alden. "It is technically known as 'making trouble1 for a man," replied the detective. "I don't know why I should 'put you on,' but I'm doing It Just the same." "Do you mean to tell me," demanded Alden, "that Captain Neale expects to extort an Important secret from me by childish tricks of annoyance sucb as this?" "Certainly not" answered Elmendorf. "Joe Neale Is no such donkey. Why, he's worth a qunrter of a million dollars, aud it's a wise man who can save as much as tbnt in a few years out of a snlnry of twenty-five hundred. By simple arithmetic it would take a man Just a century to do it if be lived meanwhile on what the neighbors sent ln, as they used to say In Massachusetts, where I was must talk to somebody. Ami the cop WOllld Just as noon get your secret out of John Doe as out of you-a little rather, In fact, because then you wouldn't know that be bnd It Nuw, I've snld enough to cost me my Job," "Nothing you say to me will ever cost you anything," said Alden "I'm not a talking man. By the wny, who are you?" "Innoiluce me," said Elinemlorf to Kendall, aud the doctor coniplleil. ' "1 am pleased to meet you," snld I Alden, oflVrlng his hand. "If yon fiud , out anything Important in this case, I want you to tell me first I'll mukc It worth your while." "No. thank you," snld Elinemlorf hastily. "As a rule I'm ns corrupt as the devil—but not this time." Meanwhile Bi-cmhi hnd delivered the posies to Elsie—whom pain bad wakened from a little sleep—with the gentlest possible words and ways. She hnd Dot at nil the manner of a nurse, but rather that of an exceedingly tactful and well hied young doctor. Elsie took the bouquet and very quietly cried over it for some minutes without discovering the note which It coutulued. She dhl not sny anything; she did uot nsk a question about whut Allien had said or dune, whether he hail gone nway or wns still wnltlng or whether be had seemed much distressed by her misfortune. Brenda hud merely said thnt be bad culled, ami that tie hail sent the violets because they were Elsie's favorite flower. Tills seemed to satisfy the girl completely, Brenda hud supposed thnt she would see the message nt the first glnnce und Indeed believe*] for some little time that she had done so, but did nut wish to rend It Immediately. Finding this an error and feu ring thnt the sudden discovery of It might startle her, Bran- da toll! Elsie thai there was a message ninl painted out its place. Then she turned away, as If unwilling to accept (he chance of guessing from Elsie's fnee what the note might contain. When she Judged that the proper interval had elapsed, she approached the bed uiii'e more. Elsie's ryes were shut. The tears weie drying on her cheeks, that were ns delicate as rose haves, and her right hand was against her breast, tightly closed. Thus she remained until she fell asleep.

Joe Neale knows that when a man Is worried be talks: be IOBF was 11 man who considered himself to bo the simple product of chance. He wus born In Panbury, Conn., und at the age of nine years he was left an orphan ami penniless. Immediately after this misfortune, as he did not like the people with whom be was expected to live, he walked out of town. There happened to be a high wind that day, and the Is-ov walked with it, because the contrary course would have been disagreeable. No one made any attempt to bring blm busk, and so he tramped f<u' nhout a week, eating nothing one day and sii good menls ihe next, according to the varying charity of the people along the road. Finally an eccentric old doctor In a certain small town found the boy 111 on his doorstep one morning, nnd ihnt wns a great piece of link for young Elmendorf. Ile hail n good home In tbe doctor's bonne for eight ys'ars, without care or labor; enjoyed the advantages of the excellent schools of the village, and was nearly ready to enter college when his benefactor died. The doctor left n goosl property, bul no will. Relatives Bwoeped. down like n (lock of birds Bliueudorf hnd not been adopted. He bsd uo U-i-il status, nnd oue day he discovered thi.t be had nothing nt all except n tnmkf'.il of decent raiment nm! the Bum of $3.no. The coincidence that this wns the exact fare to New York decided Blmen* dorfs course. He nrrlved In the metropolis without a penny, hunted up a boarding house near the station, carried his trunk there on his shoulder ami then went out to look for work. He bad many occupations In the next Ave years, but none to his liking. Kinally he became n clerk In a small hotel which was n haunt of wnrd poll* tlclaiiR. Yielding to the temptation thus thrown Into his wny, he developed Into a lleuti'iiunt or the district lender, iesurnlng more tri.-ks than he bad the hardihood to play and prospering the Isisb been use of his scruples. it became n delusion with blm, however, that he wiih one of the most dishonest of crented beings; thut he would do anything for money, and that only his hard lurk prevented hlm from Selling his soul ut a good figure. Once when tils affairs were at a low ebb his patron suggested the police, and Ulinenslorf became a member of the force In the firm belief that a corrupt ninn like himself could make money therein. But he bad a perverso way of being dissatisfied with temptation, and he gained a reputation for honesty whish his best friends deplored. It wus [Hire chance, n mntter not worthy of mention, which secured his transfer to the staff of the detective bureau, lie had no appetite for the work, yot be must have possessed a certnlu fitness for It.

FRIDAY, MAY 8th,lH0S. KHITOHIAL CBOaVI'lNUB. "After the horse is stolen, Irjck the .stable door," is the policy lieing pur •tued by Kootes»a "•*'«> member at Ottawa, W. A. Galliher. Since the govern- ment announc-ed there would be no tax placed on lead products, a flood of tol- a-j-rams has beeu let lsoose on Ottawa protesting against the treatment accorded the industry. As a result some animation a-jems to hare been impart- isd to the dormant lieing of Big Bill, And he is now bestirring himself on behalf of his indignant constituents. He haa actually addressed the commons ou the subject, but where he got his courage from is not explained. His deep concern for his suffering people, however, has come too late to do any good, and it won't eveu serve to square him with the electors. What people would really like to know is, where the deuce was Galliher when the question of lead came up and what was the matter with his tongue? The much-boomed English colony planted at Saskatoon, in the Territories, is turning out to be a huge <*on- fidence game, successfully aud scientifically worked by a professional bunco-steerer in the guise of a parson, Rev. Barr. It has been proven that tbe reverend colonizer has made upwards of £10,000 out of bis scheme, asecuring a rake-off from the Dominion immigration department of so much per head, likewise from the steamboat nnd railway companies, and then a heavy percentage from the mercantile concerns selling the precious victims farm implements aud general supplies. A big row at Saskatoon resulted in the Territorial government agents having to step in and look after the colonists, many of whom were destitute and all practically ignorant of pioneer life. .They wens loaded up with unsuitable goods and implements, bought under advice from the reverend manipulator, and for a long time to come many of them must look for sustenance from the hands of the government. Ban- has been given his walking ticket, but he can afford to take a holiday. The Englishmen were easy, yet it is to be .hoped their experience will make them the more determined to become citizens of the soil aud to win success in their new surroundings. British -Columbia has a brave reputation for scandals in political circles, but a little the coarsest of all deals to come up is that in connection with the •Columbia & Western railway grant, whereby 625,000 acres of the richest lands in the province, situated in East Kootenay, were to have lieen secretly given the C.P.B. lt had been suspected for a year that all was not right and finally Oliver, momber for Delta, probed the affair sufficiently to get a commission appointed to Inquire into the circumstances. Since the commission started sensation has followed sensation,until now it has reached the stage where the rascals have fallen out among themselves and each is hasten .ing to tell on the other fellow. One •thing practical has been accomplished so far. The government passed through a bill cancelling tho C.P.R. crown grants to the lands and the lieut.-goveruor has signed it, after a long and anxious delay, so saving the people a valuable heritage. The disclosures at the commission have cans cd the legislature to adjourn till next week, to further the iuvestigations,and prominent counsel has been engaged jko help Oliver elicit the truth. The jobbery comes in in another light bv the facts shown that the cancelled lands were to bave been relocated by interested parties, who were to share up, it is said, with certain memliers of the house. Strong accusations have bean made and the lie passed more than once, and folk may imagine tbe ■ijtuation is exciting. Sufficient proof is forthcoming to demonstrate that the legislative halls at Victoria have been .sheltering a precious nest of rascals and they should be turnwl out without ftirthor ceremony. Turn the ras- Valt* out. DRILL POINTS. The Morrissey Miner has died. Dunsmuir's coal miners are on strike at Cumberland. Sidney Norman went out to Spo- kaue on Friday. Supt.
