A disastrous landslide occurred the Vancouver mine on Saturday lust) causing several thousand dollars worth of damage to the company's property. A 11,000 ft. flume has recently been constructed, running from Granite creek, anil traversing the mountain pile between lhe Vancouver and .Mountain Boomer mines. This Hume, wliich is not yet fully completed, is intended to curry water to be used as power for the recently installed compressor plant und it appears that somebody opened the flood gate, and the tremendous volume of water seeped through the caith 20 ft. to bedrock with the nsult that a big slide was caufed, 40 feet wide at its base, and increasing aa it went, to several hundred feet. It filled Four mile creek below and turned the i.vv of water into the wa^on road, wliih was totally demolished for .",00 yards. The cur*cut of gravel and water then poured down the road until it struck the compressor bunk-house, which was filled with gravel8 feet deep. This bunkhouse is twelve feet from the wagon road, and being an obslaclu to the flow, it diverged into two streams, one of which carried away the new bridge recently constructed by lhe Vancouver Mining Co. All the contents of the bunkhouse were washed away. It is, however, possible thut the disaster will be the nii*aii<i of bringing untold wealth lo the coffers of the Vancouver company, as the slide was Instrumental in uncovering the Mountain Boomer ledge, one hundred yards below tlie lowest workings. Naturally the company are Jubilant over thi*', but as we go to preTs. nobody bus closely scanned the outcrop, owing to the preponderance of mud. The ledge with its precious content can be seen at n distance howivrr, but until the mud bus si tt !��� d il is lot safe for any mnn to go near.

No. 4 is the first that has met our gaze, but if there was nothing more substantial in its utterances of the three pre viou3 numbers, then it should he passed up liy lovers of clean tactics. Under the caption of "The Premier's Lillle Jaunts,'1 written assuredly for no oilier purpose than to detract from the real mission of the Premier, and to aim a dollop of mud with Hie hope that some of it might stick, the Kootenay Liberal says: " All these Utile jaunls are ostensibly on "government business " und " in tlie Inteiesl of the province." At the same lime thev provide verv pleasant summer trips for lhe luuribls, and, incidentally, (live au opportunity for wiilespieaii campaign work whicli could not otherwise be Secured save at great expense. The province pays lhe bills- for are tliey not incurred ill the pursuit of government business V And the premier, h*s colleagues und ins loiioweis reap the pleasures and the rewinds. The Conservatives point oui with gleeful pride that Hon. Richard Moliiido is the first premier of the province who ever personally visited every district to become acquainted with its needs. Wo beg to add tbut he is likewise tho iirsl premier who ever thought il proper lo ns�� public funds for pleasure trips and ctitnpalgu touis." There is a strrak of narrow miiidcd- edne.-s iu the topnot of the editor of thu Kootenay Liberal that he should stope out. These sniggers of disparagement savor of the fox and the grapes policy on the one hand, and a puerile at enipt to resume a campaign of blander that so ignoimnioualy failed at the lust provincial election. It does not strike (be misguided editor ot the latest political Ihunderei* that us a man of keen business acumen Mr. MeBride is but creating a new departure that none of his predecessors hud savvy enough to think out. Il does not strike hiin Ihut the smaller towns have been given the dirty go by hithcrlo hv premiers, and that he is assimilating knowledge by personal observation and establishing a splendid precedent. I_f be makes friends by so doing���Goo. ! Il is but natural that the Grit editors should howl with rage, aud mud balls like lhe above sample slung. The machine must have been given a violent twist to have squeezed that spasm from the editor. When Sir Wilfrid Lanrier makes his long promised visit to British Columbia, it will be qiiite in order, according to the ethics of the Koolenay Liberal for that journal to hurl some of its own mud at him for " Using i*uhmc funds l*OIl I'l.liASUIlU Tim*.-! AND CAMPAIGN TOTJBS." What's sauce for thegoose is sauce for the gander, but wouldn't that jar you ? Maltcis seem to have gone all crisscross at the Lucerne in church aflairs during the writer's sojourn in the wheat belt; not that his absence hurried along the inevitable. It seems that the Anglican church bell will not be heard again for some lime owing to dissension In the innards, too much alleged boozerino, a poetic nature unapreclated, and other piffle that does not jibe with the rubrics of the slate church, nor fits in apparently with the desires of the rank uud file who dream uf tinkling harps iu the happy someday.

So far the strawberry of the class of 1008 has been a pleasure to the eye and a disappointment to the tast��. Size, color, everything but flavor, has been characteristic of the 1908 strawberry A fruit that has a sifter, richer, more luscious color than a glowing sunset and tastes like a lemon���such is the strawberry that has been on sale this season. Growers may raise a strawberry that cun he packed and kept, and fail to raise a strawberry that can be eaten with relish. The season of 1008 has produced a fruit that is big and red, but sour us the grapes on the vines of disappointment or the smile of a defeated candidate.���Toronto Telegram. Rats! Ju.u Iry Denver berries! We were at the Dominion Fair at Calgary last week wilh our old college chums Black, Clever, l*"yfe, Welsh and Tyo, and whilst there mixed it with another bunch of boys from this silvery land from the Knslo end. We saw others with jags and other men's wives, but ns this is not a society journal we refrain from further trimmings. Speaking of the great Fair, it was a huge success. Ne'son had a stand there that was crowded with sightseers from mom till dewy eve, and from observation we are satisfied that lhe Nelson business men made no mistake when tliey decided upon the enterpiise. At lhe R'Velstoke stand, Art. Johnson of the Ma-1-llerald, lauded the merits of ihat city and district, a particular feature being a splendid display of ores. Both exhibits were thoroughly representative and the best of their class beyond a doubt. It seemed to us that every district in the province was represented by an exhibit, but poor old Bounteous Slocan had ne'er a boost nor a scratch of a pen to tell the multitude it was on the map, How long, O Lord, how long ? Here is an incident of local interest It happened just after the airship was blown up that a second cyclone struck a refreshment booth, and the entire roof whizzed across an improvised grand stand, huiiing a large number of spectators to the ground, seriously injuring many and fatally injuring an old rancher from Innisfail. From out of the crowd there sprang four Slocan men to render first aid to the injured, and a strange coincidence appears in tlie face that these men though well acquainted were not aware of each other's attendance at the Fair, and these four men lifted tbe poor old fellow tenderly into the ambulance van. We can vouch for this because we were one of the four. Jack Black was struck on the head with a piece of flying lumber, but he has been a policeman in the mountains too long to take notice of a trifle like that. There was a bunch of newspaper men from Oregon and Montana at the Dominion Pair last week, and Bob Edwards of the Calgary Eye*Opqner was introducing tlie scribes to some western bandits. " Say, you fellows, here's another of 'em ; shake hands with the editor of the Slocan Review," and immediately we were mussed and fussed over and given the seat of honor at the prevailing sacrifice to Bacchus. After some of the guys had ginned up a time or two, one more confiding than the rest turned to us and said: " Well, and how's Spokane ? " "Spokane!" we exclaimed in surprise, "We don't come from Spokaue. It's Slocan, S-1-oca-n, God's country, Slocan! " " Whazzermar'r with Bob Edwards ? Didn't he say you were editor of the Spokane Review ? Good Lord, you'd better skin before those wallopers get next. They're all financially bust, and they're making up to pull your ear down for fifty to get home with." We skinned! But oh, the disgrace of it! Fancy the main cheese of this great family journal being mistaken for the yankee editor of a yellow daily! The strawberry crop is a bumper. The local price for fresh picked fruit iB i(2 per crate. We can assure our friends that great interest in B.C. fruit lands is being taken in the east, and particularly docs it apply to the Kootenay. Tt is not hard is discover why this valley is not getting a better quota of settlers. It is because the dislrict ia not known to the outside world, In every town of importance east of Revelstoke real estate men are booming fruit lands, but each office is devolingits undivided attention to a particular district, and all give the glad shout for the section they are interested in. We noticed that no house offeicd land iu two diirerent districts, for woiild'nt they be pitting one dislrict against the other, and they can't all be "the best." When they are through with selling land elsewhere, these men will hit lhe pike for the Slocan, that is if we let them know we are a sottled district and can skin them all when it comes down to actual results. We wrote several illustrated articles during our eastern trip, for influential journals, with a hope that good results would accrue from the advertising. Our special edition should prove a powerful factor in advertising the potentialities of the district. Its production has been unavoidably delayed, mainiy through a preponderance of similar work at the office of the eastern concern who are printing it for us. There should be a great rush for it. Mission City now has a live, pros perous-looking weekly pnper, the " Fraser Valley Record." There are no flies on the editor, and he should make enough money out of it to eat regularly, that is if the people and the merchants do the square thing by him. J. A. Bates is the man behind the pen. This is the season of the year when the prospector hits lbe trail to bis own pet prospect, and having stuck in a couple of slicks of powder, hikes to tlie recording office and takes an oath that he has done 10 feet of tunneling, 70 feet of opencuts and other development work. Nelson City Council has decided to adopt mountain time instead of Pacific time as hitherto. Guess we will have to do the same whether we like it or not. At pix o'clock next Sunday evening put your watches on an hour, but don't blame us if you have to wait an hour for breakfast the following morning. Stege and Jakey might jib. What abont that " Glacier Day " enterprise ? For goodness sake get a wiggle on with tlie preliminary arrangements, someone, or the chance will depart for another year. You may rest assured that the world knows nothing of our unrivalled asset, but the very least the townspeople ran do is to tuke concerted action and talk about it. We are still of opinion that the lead bounty is a gift to the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Co , owners of the Trail smelter, St. Eugene mine, the Bluebell and other huge shippers. The lead producers of the Slocan might possibly get some crumbs from the table of the " Lead Pipe Olnchers," but there is as much chance as of pigs flying. Dou't kick now; tnke your medicine. Oh, my leg! The staid Nelson News of Tuesday made this bull: "An explorer found in it an old empty gunny sack wliich proved to contain a large assortment of razors and knives." Regrets are to be heiiid on even side at the departure of Mr. G. A. Hydi and family for the coast. Mr. Hyde for ths past twelve months lias been iu charge of the C.P.R. depot at New Denver, in which capacity he has made a host of friends by his extreme courtesy always to the traveling public and the company's clientele generally. It is too had that Ihe interests of New Denver are not better conserved by the railway company in the matter of paying a stipend that would warrant a real good agent-operator staying with us. By a senseless flaw in the management lakeside ports are relegated to the tank town category on the payroll, so it will bo readily understood why it is difficult to retain for any length of time the services of an ambitions man with a family dependent upon hiin. The company should consider this matter, as the growing importance of New Denver warrants something better than any old thing. Mr. Hyde is going lo a ranch be is taking near New Westminster, where he will embark in the fascinating pursuit of fruit farming. Premier McBride's answer to the people of Sandon with regard to the cutting off the trains of thes.Ka.lo and Slocan Railway is typical of his policy in all other railway matters. We can look for a happy solution as the premier is a veritable thorn in the flesh of railway concerns who want something for nothing. The N. & 8., Owned by the C.P.R., and tho K. & S., owned by the G.N.R., received bonuses in the shape of about 80,000 acres of the people's land to build and operate these lines, and although these large tracts of land were doled out before MeBride and his merry mon took the reins of government, it is a pretty safe bet that there will be something doing when the terms of the charters are analyzed. Charlie Nelson, prince of rustlers, is going on a three month's trip to the " land o' cakes" as delegate to the Supreme Lodge K, ol P. to be held at Edinburgh. It will be strange if Charlie doesn't plav old gooseberry with the hearts of the lassies in the lowlands, and it would be stranger still if many a feminine heart here doesn't go pit-a*pat until he returns. Says the Nelson News: A visitor from the nortli end of Slocan lake tells a etory which may explain the disposition of part of the goods stolen last week from the Wood-Vallance Hardware company's Btore, though it affords no clue to the identity of the thieves. Supposedly an empty box car was backed on to a tiding at Rosebery. An explorer found in it an old gunny sack, which proved to contain a large assortment of razors and knives. As no word of the robbery in Nelson had reached Rosebery at that time, the spoils were divided as a matter of course. Evidently the burglars had chosen the empty box car, probably in the Nelson yards at the time, as a safe place of temporary deposit for their booty, retaining ouly the revolvers. The compositor who first set in type the proverb, "Truth is Mighty," apparently left out the word "Inconvenient." *, Slocan Fruit Lands Gti��o-p>��i3t Best Ejjsir-lio-st We have them in large and small blocks, in every portion of the district, at all prices. Write me for particulars. R. W. MOERAN, Manager. Brydges, Blakemore * Cameron LIMITED NEW DENVER, B.C. avc Minister of Education Say New Denver Children Are Top-Notchers New Denver citizens are proud of their schools, proud ol the scholars, and proud of the tutors who have brought the schools to their present state of elTioiency. So high do tbey rank on the list of premier e*.*ucutional houses, that a spoiliaeons public tribute was elicited from the Minister of Education during his visit wilh the Premier hero a few days ago. Dr. Young said that New Denver schools showed the highest percentage of efficiency in the province, and iu Mr. T. T. Rankine they bad the best teacher of public schools British Columbia possessed. The work of the children was criticized and praised in an in stinting manner. The exhibition given by tbe scholars before the premier drew from him encomiums to the effect that he had never witnessed prettier work. We all know lhe capabilities of tho rising generation of this town, and it but confirms our well grounded assertion that nowhere in Canada do better scholastic facilities prevail. It was meet therefore, at the meeting of school trustees held on Saturday evening last, that Mr. Rankine should be rewarded for his zeal and ability, and this reward took shape In an increase to his Btipend of $10 p,-r month. Dr. Young also mentioned that the government would be willing to establish a high school here providing that twenty scholars were entered. When the school trustees met for the annual meeting on Saturday last, it was with n feeling that all had faithfully rendered an account of tlieir stewardship, the only rogretable feature being tha retirement of Mr. A. St. Clair Brindle, who will be shortly leaving the town. Mr. A. Mclnnes, mining recorder, was unanimously elected in his stead. Mr. J. E. Angrignon's term of office expired, but ho was again elected by acclamation. Mr. J. B. Smith was also re-appointed auditor. A Btim of money wgs voted for improving the exterior and interior of both junior and senior sclioolhouses. Tbe meeting was a very unanimous one and words of praise accompanied tho increase of salary to Mr. Rankine. Beautiful weather prevailed on Wednesday afternoon when the members of the Methodist church gave a garden party on the magnificent lawn of A. St. Clair Brindle. It waB a great financial and social success. The dresses ot the ladies present were wondrous specimens of the creative abilities of the local fashion builders, and the amount of ice-Oream consumed was such Ihat a goodly portion of the Denver glacier is now in extremis. The treasury of the Methodist church has been enriched about $-15 by the sale of the toothsome cream. A largo crowd remained on the grounds until darkness covered it. NOTES FROM NAKUSP.

Miss Olive Vandeburgh who has been on a visit home, has returned to her duties at Ainsworth, The rapid rise of the lake has made it necessary for the C.P.R. to lay off all the men employed at the shipyard. The election for school trustees took place last Saturday with the result that Mr. Thos. Abriel was again elected. Mr. Brydon gave an instructive and interesting talk on Fruit Culture in Abriel's Hall. A good crowd of ranchers were in attendance. Spokane Interstate Fair. Efforts are being made by Robert H. Cosgrove, manager* of the Interstate Fair, which will be held in Spokane, October 5 to 10, inclusive, to secure a one-way fare for the round trip from all railroads running into Spokane, that patrons of the big inland fair maybe given a better rate than ever before. In past years the best that the railroads have done for the Interstate Fair was to give a round trip for a fare and a third. It is believed that a reduction of the former rate to u straight one- fare basis for the round-trip will result beneficial, both for thn Interstate Fair and the railroads. flit SLOCAN MINING REVIEW, NEW DENVER, B.

THE desperadoes were as much astonished as was De Catinat wben they found that they bad recaptured iu this extraordinary manner the messenger whom they bud given up for lost. "A thousand thunders!" cried one. "And this is the man whom that devil's brat Latour would make out to be dead!" "And how cnme lie here?" "And whtfre Is Etienne Arnaud?" "He has stubbed Etienne, and taken his coat und hat." "Whut! While we were all within stone's cast?" "Aye, there Is no other way out of It." "By my soul," cried old Despard, "I hud never much lovo for old Etienne, but 1 have emptied a cup of wine with hlm before now, and I shall see that he has justice. Let us cast these reins Lfiund the fellow's neck and hang hlm uporTtliis tree." Several pairs of bunds were already unbuckling the harness of the dead horse when De Vivonne pushed his way Into the little group. "It is as much ns your lives are worth to touch him," said be. "Hut he has slain Etienne Arnaud." "Ihat score may be settled afterward. Tonight he is the king's messenger. Is the other all safe?" "Yes, he Is here." "Tie this man and put him In beside bim. Uubuclcle the traces of the dead horse. So! Now, De Camac, put your own Into the harness. You can mount the box and drive, for we have not very far to go." The changes were rapidly made. Amos Green was Ihrust in beside De Catinat, and the carriage was soon tolling up the steep lucliue which It had come down so precipitately. The American bad said not a word since his capture and bad remained absolutely stolid, with his bauds crossed over his chest while his "fate was under discussion. Now that he was alone once more with his comrade, however, ho frowned and muttered. "Those Infernal horses!" ho grumbled. "Why, an American horse would have taken to the water like a duck. Once over the river, we should have bad n clear lead to Paris." "My dear friend," cried De Catlnat, faying his manacled bauds upon those of bis comrade, "how nobly you bave Btood by me! But how came you there? Never in my life have I beeu so astonished us when I saw your face." Amos Green chuckled to himself. "I thought that maybe it would bo a surprise to you if you knew who was driving you," said he. "Wbeu I was thrown from my horse I lay quiet, partly because it seemed to me to be more healthy to lie than to stand with all those swords clinking iu my cars. Then tbey all got round you, and I rolled into the ditch, crept along it, got on the crossroad in the shadow of the trees and was beside the carriage before ever tbey knew that I was gone. I saw iu a flash that there was only ono way by which I could bo of use to you. Tho coachman was leaning round, with his head turned, fo see what was going on behind him. I out with my knife, sprung up on the trout wheel and stopped his tongue." "And then'.'" "I pulled him dowu into the ditch, and 1 got into his coat nnd his hat. I hud hardly got the reins before they wore all buck and bundled you Into the couch. I was not afraid of their seeing me, but I was scared lest I should not know which road to take, and so set them on the trail. But they made It easy to me by sending souie of their riders in front, so I did well until I saw that by-track und made u run for it." The guardsman again pressed his comrade's bauds. "You have been as true to me as hilt to blade," suid he. "It was a bold thought and a bold deed." "And what now?" asked the American. "I do not know who these men are, and I do not know whither they tire taking us. I fancy that they are taking us to some place where they can shut us up until this business blows over." "Well, they'll need to be smart ubout It." "Why?" "Else inaybo they won't find us when they wnnt ns." "What do you mean?" Eor answer the American, with a twist and a wriggle, drew his two hands apart and held them lu front of .his comrade's face. "Bless you, it's lhe first thing they teach the papooses In un Iudiun wigwam! I'ut your hands out." With a few dexterous twists he loosened De Catlnat's bonds until he also was able to slip his hands free. "Now for your feet, if you'll put them up. They'll lind that we aro easier to catch than to hold." But at that moment tbe carriage began to slow down, and the clunk of the hoofs of the riders In front of them died suddenly away. Peeping through the windows, the prisoners saw a huge, dark building stretching in front of them, so high nnd so broad that, the night shrouded it in upon every side. A great archway hung above them, und the lumps shone on tho rude wooden gate studded with ponderous clamps and nails. In the upper part of the door was a small square iron grating, and through this they could catch a glimpse of the gleam of a lantern and of a bearded face which looked out at them. De Vivonne, standing In bis stirrups, craned his bead up toward the grating, so that the two men most interested could hear little of the conversation which followed. Tbey saw only that the horseman held a gold ring up in the air and that tho face above, which had begun by shaking and frowning, was now nodding and smiling. An Instant later the head disappeared, .the door swung oueu up- ' on screaming niiiscs, ana tne carriage drove on luto the courtyard beyond, leaving the escort, witb tbe exception of De Vivonne, outside. As the horses pulled up, a knot of rough fellows clustered round, and the two prisoners were dragged roughly out. In the light of the torches which flared around them they could see that they were hemmed iu by high turreted walls upon every side. A bulky man with a bearded face, the same whom they had seen at the gratiug, was standing in the center of the group of armed meu Lssuing his orders. "To the upper dungeon, Simon!" he cried. "And see that they bnve two bundles of straw and a loaf of bread until we learn our master's will." "I know not who your master may be," said De Cutinnt, "but I would ask you by what warrant he dares to stop two messengers of tho king while traveling in his service?" "By St. Denis, if my master play the kiug a trick, it will be but tie und tie," tho stout man answered, with a grin. "But no more talk! Away wilh them, Simon, and you answer to mo for their safe keeping." It was in vain that De Catinat raved nnd threatened, invoking the most terrible menaces upon all who were concerned in detaining bim. Two stout knaves thrusting him from behind and one dragging lu front forced hlm through n narrow gate and along a stoue flagged passage. Tbey made tbelr way down three successive corridors and through three doors, each of which was locked and barred behind them. Then they ascended a winding stouo stair, nnd finally they wero thrust Into n small square dungeon, and two trusses of straw wero thrown ln after them. An Instant later a heavy key turned In tbe lock, and they were left to their own meditations. Very grim and dark those med'tH- tlons wero in the case of De Catlnat. A stroke of good luck had made him at court, and now this other of ill fortune hud destroyed him. There were his people in Purls, too���his sweet Adele, his old uncle, who hud been as good as a father to him. What pro tector would they have In their troubles now that be had lost tbe power tbat might 'r.ave shielded them? But his energetic comrade had yielded to no feeling of despondency. The iu- stuut that the clang of the prison door had assured him that he was safe from interruption he had felt all round the walls and flooring to see what manner of place this might be. His search had ended iu the discovery of a small fireplace at one corner and of two great clumsy billots of wood, which seemed to bave beeu left there to serve as pillows for the prisoners. Having satisfied himself that the chimney was so small that it was utterly impossible to pass even his bead up it, be drew the two blocks of wood over to the window and was able by placing one above the oilier aud standing ou tiptoe on the highest to reach the bars which guarded it. Drawing himself up and using one toe in an inequality of the wall, he managed to look out on to tho courtyard which they hud just quitted. Tbe carriage and De Vivonne were passing out through the gate as he looked, and he heard n moment later the slum of the heavy door and the clatter of hoofs from the troop of horsemen outside. The seneschal and bis retainers had disappeared; the torches, too, were gone, and, save for the measured tread of a pair of sentinels In the yard twenty feet beneath hiin, all was silent throughout the great castle. Tbo window was large enough to pass his body through it it were not for those bars. IIo shook them and hung his weight upon them, but they were as thick us bis thumb nud firmly welded; then, getting some strong hold for his other foot, he supported himself by one hand, while he picked with his kuife at tho settiug of the iron.

"Something on your mind?" said Amos Green, sittins down upon his billets of wood. "What was It, then?" Tbe guardsman here made a movement of Impatience. "What was it? How can you ask nie when you know as well as I do the wretched failure of my mission? It was the king's wish that the archbishop should marry them. The archbishop should havo beeu nt the palace by now. Ah, I can see the king's cabinet, I can see him wailing, I can see madame waiting, I can bear tbem speak of tbe unhappy De Catlnat"��� "I see all that," said the American stolidly, "and I see something more." "What then?" "I see the archbishop tying tbem up together. " "He could not bo at (lie palace." "On the contrary, he reached thc pa 1- nco ubout half nn hour ago." De Catlnat sprang to his feet. At the palace!" he screamed. "Then who gave him (he message?'.' "1 did," said Amos Green. If the American bad expected to surprise or delight his companion by Ibis curt announcement he was woofully disappointed, for De Catlnat approached him with a face which was full of sympathy nnd trouble. "My dear friend," said he, "I have beeu selfish and thoughtless. That fall from your horse has shaken you more than you think. Lie down upon this straw and see If a little sleep may not"��� "I tell you that (he bishop Is there!" cried Amos Green. "He Is, bo is," said De Catinat soothingly. "He Is most certainly there. I trust Hint you have no pain?" The American raved In the air with his knotted lists. "You think that I'm crazed," ho cried, "and, by tho eternal, you are enough lo make me sol When I say that I sent the bishop I mean that I saw to the job. You remember wbeu I stepped back to your friend tbe major?" It was the soldier's turn to grow excited now. "Well?" he cried, gripping the other's arm. ���"Well, when we send a scout into tbe woods, if the matter Is worth It, we send a second ono at another hour, and so one or other comes back with his balr on. That's the Iroquois fashion, and a good fashion too." "My Goo, 1 believe that you have saved me!" "I went back to the major then, and I asked hlm when he was In Paris to pass Ly the archbishop's door. I showed him this lump of chalk. 'If we've been there,' said I, 'you'll see a great cross on the left side of tbe doorpost. If there's no cross, then pull the latch aud ask the bishop if he'll come up to the palace as quick as his horses cau bring him.' The major started an bout after us. He would be in Paris by half past 10; the bishop would be iu his carriage by 11, and be would reach Versailles half an hour ngo���that is to say, about half past 12. By the Lord, 1 think I've driven him off his head!" De Catinat spun round the cell now. waving his arms and his legs, with his shadow capering up the wall behind him, all distorted In the moonlight. "Oh, it I could but do something for you!" he exclaimed. "Y'ou can, then. Lie down on that straw and go to sleep." By persuasions nnd u little pushing he got his delighted companion on to his couch again and heaped the straw over hiin to serve as n blanket.

The Jury Had to Teach the Pompous Judge a Lesson. A certain trial Judge In a certalD state became so unpopular that tbe only way he eould get a verdict for the state was to make his charge hi favor of the prisoner. When matters had reached this stage a famous feud fighter was arrested ou a charge of murder and brought to trial. The case, which was the Judge's first murder trial, attracted much uttentiou, and tbe judge, whose unpopularity arose from his vanity and pomposity, greatly enjoyed his role as umpire of the law. The case was n clear one against the defendant, and his guilt was so conclusively proved that the Judge even presumed to charge accordingly. The Jury retired, and when they filed back Into court It was noticed that they avoided the prisoner's eye and looked unusually solemn. "Gentlemen," suld the judge, waving the clerk Into silence, "have you reached a verdict?" "We bave," Aid the foreman. The judge opened a paper bag and drew out a black cap.

Water Supply. By W. R. BEATT1E. , .������ The Ideal climatic conditions for the production of celery are bright sunshine, pure air, cool nights and a well distributed rainfall of about eight inches during tbe growing period in the field or garden. In case the grower adopts tbe plan of transplanting twice the seedlings will be ready for the first handling la from four to six weeks from the time lhe seed is sown. The seedlings may be transplanted to trays or to beds in the opeu ground, This transplanting answers two purposes: First, tbe seedling plant of celery has a straight root, or taproot, which is broken in transplanting, causing u large mass of fibrous roots to lie formed In the case of a plant allowed to remain In the seed bed tiutll planting out time this taproot has gone fnr down Into the soil and the plant has formed very few side roots. Consequently It suffers a great shock in the process of planting in the Held, and a large number of plants will need to be replaced. Second, when transplanting twice Is practiced there is no necessity for thinning, nud a more Uniform lot of plants is obtained. Two handlings cannot lie recommended when celery Is grown on ii large scale, as lhe cost of labor Is loo great. It Is better to have a surplus of plants and to renew those that full. The Growing Crop. No definite rules inn be given for the application of water to a growing crop of celery, us the requirements vary with the charaiter of the soil, atmospheric conditions and temperature. The cost of application should determine largely the extent lo which water should be used, n nd - ns u rule it is not profitable to give more than three waterings during the growing season in addition to the one given nt the time tbe plants are set In the Held. When celery Is to be grown on n large scale It will be desirable, where u natural water supply cannot be brought Into service, to provide pumping machinery aud to give the soil two or three good soaklngs during the season, especially In the absence of heavy rains. Celery requires the most water while making Its greatest growth, which occurs late In the summer. As the crop approaches maturity tlie water should be applied sparingly, and It should be withheld altogether for some time before bluueh- ing. Free Range For the Hog. Hogs that have pleuty of range and exercise are uot nearly us susceptible to disease as those i-onlined in a sniuil pen. A hog that goes out after his feed will be well grown and thrifty, accustomed to the elements nnd not liable to be injured by a sudden change of weather. It Is difficult to put a good finish ou hogs while running In a large pasture. If Ihcy are allowed to run on good pasture until three weeks or a inonth before seuding lo market und are then shut up nnd given ull the corn tbey want, with plenty of pure water, they will make very rapid gains.���Cf 1*1.

Such has often been the case during the construction of a railway; that there is no necessity for such to happen bus been proved by actual experience. Tlie Canada Atlantic Railway runs through what was one of the most valuable pineries in Canada. Its builder, Mr. John R. Booth, was himself a lumberman of long experience, and he placed on his contractors restrictions as to burning brush and setting fires generally, such that no forest fire of importance occurred in the whole course of the building of the railway. In the building of the TemisUaining and Northern Ontario Railway, too, serious forest lires have been conspicuous by their absence, by reason of continual and watchful patrolling of the line; and this notwithstanding the fact that the road runs through some tracts of timber of the greatest value. During the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway and other railways, unfortunately, similar vigilance has not been exercised; and we find that along that lineu-many serious lires took place. To this, more than to all other causes, is due the fact that the whole country from Nip* igon, Out., west to within a short distance east of Winnipeg has been burnt over���to say nothing of many tracts in tlie Rockies, covered, until the railway wis built, with one of the finest forests in til") world. In lrilili there was a solid forest stretching from Nipigon westward nearly to Winnipeg. Partially burnt at the time of the passage of the troops to j suppress the first Kiel rebellion, railway construction In 1882-84 completed the destructioni though even in 1884 one could walk a hundred miles east of Ljike Superior through un- burnt forest. The building of the Grand Trunk Pacific furnishes the greatest problem if the present in forest protection. Both in the eastern section and in that now being constructed westward from Edmonton much danger from fire must be guarded against. The authorities of New Brunswick have conferred with the Dominion authorities as to the taking of steps to guard against the setting of forest lires during the building of the roud in that province, where some very valuable tracts of timber are traversed by the right of way, and arrangements have now been made for a patrol of the lineg this summer. Patrol of the G. T.P. west of Edmonton, Alta., has also been arranged and is now in operation.

General Henrico d'Almonte was from ISO:* to 1SUU tlie ambassador of Em peror Maximilian of Mexico to tbe court of"Napoleon III. The most interesting and most pathetic episode to which D'Almonte was a witness and which Is vividly described in his memoirs Is the ineetlug between the scheming French emperor and Maximilian's wife, the beautiful aud ainbi tious ("arietta, who shortly before the Catastrophe ut Quereturo bail come to Paris to invoke Napoleon's aid for the tottering throne of ber husband. But Napoleon III., who for his own per fldious purposes had by promises and allurements Induced Maximilian, then archduke of Austria, to accept the "re stored" throne of Montezuma, faith lessly abandoned the unfortunate prince to his cruel fate as soou as be realized his schemes to be Impracticable. Even nt hor arrival In Paris Carlot* ta's mind was already ln such a high ] state of Irritation that It was deemed advisable to have General d'Almonte at her side during the meeting wilh Na poleon. which took place in the em press' apartments at the Grand Hotel ile Paris. What lends special Interest to that Interview Is the fact that the empress, crazed by desperalion and fear for her husband's safety and by Napoleon's unsympathetic attitude, hurled a curse at the latter which In time was indeed fulfilled to the very letter. "The empress." says General d'AI inoiile, "pleaded, partly on her knees and In lhe most beseeching terms, with the stony l**renchinan to no avail. Then it was that I witnessed lhe most bar rowing and dramatic scene of my life Frantic with grief und excitement, the empress, with drawn mouth and flash lug eyes, sprang to her feet, extending both her hands toward the retreating emperor.

Some elaborate calculations, backed by experiments, have been made in England to determine the breaking strength of rings. It appears that a ring of ductile metal, like malleable Iron, will be pulled out iuto the form of a long link liefore It breaks and that tho ultimate strength of the ring is virtually independent of its diameter Fracture finally occurs as thc result of almost pure tension, and the resistance to breaking is a little less than twice that of a rod of the same cross section subjected to a straight pull. As the ring increases in diameter there ap pears to be a slight approach toward equality, with double tbe strength of a bar. Thus a three inch ring, made of three-quarter inch Iron, broke at p.lneteeu and one-half tons, a four Inch Hug at nineteen and nine-tenths tons and n six loch ring at twenty tons, the strength of a bar of the same metal being ten and one-half tons.

News of some remarkable feats ot rain-making by means of an assault of the heavens by explosives has come to Australia from New Zealand within the past lew. days. The tract of country in wl 'ch the experiments took place was North Otago, and the places chosen were Raki's Table., 1,060 feet above tbe sea level, and To- turd, 500 feet above the sea. The district is usually bleBsed with good rains, but last year there was a long drought. The first attack on the skies was made with three explosions, in the lust and most powerful 40 pounds of dynamite and 26 pounds of powder being used. Reports say thnt no immediate effects were observed, but a slight shower fell at a place a little distance away. Further explosions with larger charges followed, the strongest being produced by 50 pounds of guncotton and 100 pounds of dynamite. These were followed by widespread anil heavy rains, which continued for two days. A third series of explosions involving charges of 200 pounds were also successfu', though not so quirky as in the case of the second series. The New Zealand Government meteorologist, Rev. D. C. Bates. F.R.G.S.. declares that the condition of the atmosphere at the beginning of the experiment was such os to justify a forecast of rain, but he admits that local residents are adamant in their view that the ruin was artificially produced. Great battles have been nlmost invariably followed by rain, no matter how unlikely it may have appeared in view ot the previous condition (if the .*.tmos- phere. New Zeilanders believe that if they can reproduce battle conditions ''ain must follow. Death of Viscount Boyne, The death nf Viscount Boyne took place recently nt his country seat, Burwarton Hall. Bridgnorth, Shropshire, where his lordship bad been ill for about three weeks. Since the death of Viscountess Boyne in 1003 he had usually resided at Burwarton Hall. Gustuvus Russell Hamilton- Russell, eight Viscount Boyne, who sat in the House of Lords as Baron Brancepeth, was in his 7Bth year, having been born May 28, 1830. He succeeded his father in 1872. The late peer was also one of the "princely Hamiltons," being Baron Hamilton, of Stackallen. Meath, in the Irish peerage. His family belonged to the junior branch of the Hamiltons. of whom the Duke of Abercorn is the head. Their common ancestor was Lord Claud Hamilton, first Lord Paisley, a jealous partisan of Mury Queen of' Scots. His estates were forfeited, but restored by James VI. (James I. of Kngland), Sir Frederick Hamilton, youngest son of Lord Claud, became one of the paladins of Gustavus Adol- plms of Sweden, and the fact has been commemorated ever since by six of the eight Viscounts Boyne having for their "first Christian name that of Gustavus. Sir Frederick, after distinguishing himself in the service of the Swedish king, became Qentleman-in-Ordinary to King James I. and King Charles I. He obtained large grants of land in Ireland, and married the daughter of Capt. Sir John Vaughan. governor of Londonderry. Here his third son, Gustavus, gained renown by defending Coleraine and Derry in the Protestant interest. He headed n regiment in the battle of the Boyne, and had his horse shot under him. At Athlone he waded across the Shannon at the head of the Grenadiers, and stormed the place. For this feat he was appointed governor by William III., who also rewarded him with a grnnt of forfeited Catholic, or Jacobite, estates. Queen Anne r,inde him Duron Hamilton, and two years later, 1717, Viscount Boyne. Viscount Boyne is succeeded by' his eldest surviving son, Hon. Gustuvus William Hamilton- Russell, a deputy-lieutenant of the counties nf Salop and Durham, late captain of the 3rd Battalion Northumberland Fusiliers. * A Famous Detective. Superintendent Alfred Lench, of the Convict Supervision Department, Scotland Yard, is retiring owing to ill- health after a famous career as a detective. The retirement will involve a general move up in the ranks of the criminal investigation officers, and eight officers will rise in rank. Superintendent Leach, ns head of the Convict Supervision Ollice, had to deal with convicts liberated on license and during tlieir tenure of police supervision, and the police officials state that there has been no officer in the i iinals of the force who has had such a personal knowledge of notorious criminals as has the retiring oflicer. One of the most important cases, from a public point ot view, with which Mr. Leach had to deal was the Southend murdei, and he personally arrested James Cii.nham Read at his house at Mitcham. The nireuiiisliiiices of this atrocious Kssex murder, for which Read was executed al Chelmsford, are fresh in the p'.iblic recollection In order to trace the murderer, the Southend police Bought the services of u Scotland Yard official, and Mr. Leach was granted permission to give the assistance' required. Part of the evidence against Read was the original telegram sent by him to his victim, making the appointment prior to the murder. This was compared with the band- ivriting in the b'dgers and books ut his office in the docks, and was found to be the same. Once this clue was -.���btained the skilled detectives were r.ot long in bringing the murderer to justice. Mr. Lenoh also traced Ben nett, the Yarmouth murderer, who so brutally did his young wife to death on the s.'iishoie. The finger-print department at Scotland Yard, which is practically an innovation of recent yenrs iu the work of criminal investigation, wns under Mr. Leach's special supervision, and it is interesting to recall the feet that owing to a Blight finger impression upon a cash- box two brothers named Stratton were arrested and convicted for the brutal murder of an old sh* pkeepci and bis wife in Deptfnrd.

INDIGESTION CAN_BE CURED Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Succeed After Other Remedies Fail. There are twenty drugs to help your digestion for a time, but there js only one medicine that can positively cure your indigestion for good. To any one with indigestion a half dozen boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are worth all the purgatives and mixtures in the country. After all these things have failed Dr. Williams' Pink Bills have cured the worst cases vf indigestion by going straight to the root of the trouble in the blood. You can take a purgative to tear through your bowels and make a clean sweep of your food, whether it is digested or not. Y'ou can take stomach bitters to create a false appetite���if you don't care what happens after you swallow your meal. Y'ou can drug your stomach with tablets and syrups to digest your food for you���if you don't care how soon you ruin your system altogether. You can do all these things���but don't call it "curing your indigestion." There is only one way to euro indigestion, and that is to give your system so much good, pure, red blood that your stomach and liver will have strength enough to do their uu'iirul work in a healthy nnd vigorous way. That is why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure indigestion- they ac- tiinllv make new blood. Here is the proof. Mr. R. MeCorkell, St. Thomas, Ont., savs:���"About a yenr ago my system became generally wrecked. My stomach was always in a state of nausea. The-sight of any kind cf food often turned my stomach and I would arise from the tabic without eating. Doctors advised different medicines which I took without benefit. Finally I became so run down that I had to quit work. For two months I tried to build myself up with ihe aid of doctors, but as time went on and my condition did not improve I became much discouraged. Then a friend told ine he thought Dr. Williams' Pink Pills would help mo, and I began their use. In three weeks' time I was so improved thnt I went back to my work, but I continued using the pills until I bad taken twelve boxes, and now my stomach is strong, and I nm ready for a good meal three times a day, and life now really seems worth living." It is because Dr. Williams' Pink Pills make new, red blood that they cure such common ailments ns anaemia, with nil its headaches and backaches, rheumatism, neuralgia. St. Vitus' dance, partial paralysis and the secret ailments from which women and young girls suffer 30 much. Y'ou can get the pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes- for $2.50 from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

A CURIOUS FARM. Requires No Fences and* Never Had a Wheeled Vehicle. Within sight ot tne towo of Jaspei Mo., ill tbe Oz.it us. a settler bus i farm wbicb probably Is uulike any oib- er In the world. This farm occupies the tableland ou the summit ol a ridge and is inclosed with a feme which no animal has ever broken through. It does uot rise above the surface of tbe farm, bul fulls sheer from tbe edge a distance of many feet The man who bomesteiided lhe table land bad a hard climb up the face ol �� perpendicular cliff to reach the comparatively level summit At one point a ledge extends out a few Inches and nlnug tbe face of tbe cliff at an upward grade. By following this ledge and making use of occasional points of rocks and of sbrub.- growlng in the fissures tbe discoverer pulled himself to lhe summit and found a surface well covered with soil and u luxuriant vegetation. Gradually he Improved the ledge un til he conld carry up tools and seed By blasting and drilling he cleared a narrow trail, up which be wns able to take first some pigs and then a cow. Later on he took up n horse. And that today ls the coudltlon of this curiously protected furm. No vehicle has turned a wheel within Its limits of palisades. The live stock has multiplied and consumes lbe grain raised. Some stones thrown across tbe trail completely fence In the hogs and cuttle.

A young man nbout twenty-five years old was sitting ln one of the third class waiting rooms of u London railway terminus with a baby on his knee, nnd Ills helplessness In pacifying the howling child attracted the atten- tion of passershy. Presently an elderly man walked up, with a smile of pity, and queried: "A woman gave you that baby to hold while she went to see about her luggage, didn't she?" "Yes." "Aud you expect her back, I suppose?" "I think she'll conte back." "Well, this makes me laugh. A wo mnn played the same trick ou me once, hut no one ever will again. Young man, you've been "done." You've beeu taken for a country greenhorn and been sold. Better give the baby over to a policeman and make a move before some reporter gets ut you." "Oh, she'll come buck," replied the young man as lie looked anxiously round. "She will, eh? .Joke grows richer nnd richer. What makes you think she'll co ine V" "Because she's my wife, aud this is our first bnby." "Oh���b'm, I see," muttered the old man, whose hilarity suddenly evaporated, and when be nlso discovered that he'd lost his train he kicked n dog that had been left unguarded on the platform.���London Answers. A Bridge of Coffins. When the British forces were marching to Pekin in 1800, after the capture of the Taku forts, one of the rivers became so swollen with the heavy rains that It was rendered almost impassable. While in this quandary a bright Idea suddenly struck one of our officers. Being well aware that the Chinese generally order tbelr coffins years in advance nnd keep them .on the premises and also thut they are perfectly air tight, he consulted with his brother officers, with the result that orders were given to search all the houses of the village and collect every coffin. With the aid of a few empty casks the soldiers constructed a pontoon bridge of coffins sufficiently strong to bear the artillery, and the river was thus passed in safety.���London Standard. An Odd Post Card. The most'curious post card ever produced, according to a leading philatelist, was one which the Japanese government put out In 1873.

On the front page Is a border Inclosing an Impressed stamp for the postage rate and a space for the address. On the second page are printed In native characters ouly minute directions for use.

Grand Pageant to be Presented in Commemoration of Early Canadian History. Quebec, May 29.���Chief among the festivities of the Quebec Tercentenary in July next will stand out those great and dramatic scenes of the Pageant which will show forth to be world what gre.��_t things were done *.'i Canada in the days of old, and how filled with romance and chivalry i.-* every page of early Canadian history. Mr. Frank Lascelles, the Master cf Pageant, fresh from his success last year at Oxford, and having already in hand the pageant of 1909 in London, with its 15,000 performers, iias just taken the people of Quebec into irs confidence and has explained !o them whut a pageant really is, and exactly what the coining representations upon the Plains of Abraham are to be like. Among other things i.e said: "it is no mere spectacular or theatrical performance which you are going to organize or in which you are going to tnke part, it is a great historical representation, which will leave its iimrk on the time and will be remembered as one of the great things which were done in Quebec in this generation. "It will give a keener interest to the study of your great beginnings, it will show forth in llesh und blood bofor** you the great men nnd women whose deeds of bravery nnd heroic suffering nave mado this country what it is. it will show the noble hearted ideas which prompted the pioneers iu theii pilgrimage irom Old France and will .nuKe all Canada realize thai here in iliis ancient city, this city set upon a rock, was the cradle and birthplace ol their great country. "And the world is prepared to honor your festivities as few festivities have oecn honored before. '"The heir to the throne of your mighty Empire is coming lo show his respect to the memory of the great iounder of Canada, Samuel de Cham- plain. "The soldiers and battleships of three great nations which were once ,it war, will come to show how much greater and more powerful is peace, and side by side in this city, where once all three were at enmity, will mareli the representatives of America. of England and of France. "It is a striking fact and one on wliich you are undoubtedly to be congratulated that you should have ,'hosen to commemorate the three hundredth year of your foundation by a form of celebration which is new and yet old; a form which sets out with all the charms that a beautiful situation, a great history and a chivalrous and poetic-minded people t un give���a country's history. "It will enable the youth of this country to realize bettor than they have ever done before the greatness of your national history. It will show forth with all the adjuncts of urcheo- logical accuracy, beautiful color, stately ceremonial, and the sweet tones of music, the greut events that you have to remember. "On the corner of the Plains of Abraham with the grounds of Marcli- mont on the right und the river flowing beyond and below, a grand stand is nl ready in course of erection, which will seat many thousands of onlookers; and on the broad stretch in front of it, between the grand stand and tlie river, will be reproduced with as great exactitude as possible, the stirring scones of early days. "hut briefly, we shall see as the strains of the overture die away, a group of wigwams set beneath the trees and a wild Indian dance in progress on the banks. Jacques Cartier coines in sight with his crew and plants .in tlio earth in the midst oi the assembled Indians the mighty, cross. wliich bears the golden lilies and the arms of France. "After a scene which will recall as vividly as history can help us to do the actual progress of events, he reads to the crowded savages, grouped on the banks of the river, as he did nearly four hundred years ago, the familiar words of the Holy Gospel of St John. Then down he goes to thc river to embark on the ship whicli is to bring him back to France. "So the French pioneers and the Indians pass out of view and we are transported in our imagination to the court of France. The same greensward is under foot and the same sky is over head, but the strains of music and groups of gay courtiers show us that the scene is no longer a little village on cliffs at the river side,, but that this is tlie court of Francois Premier at Fontainebleau. In great state he rides at the head of his cnlvaeade, and Cartier, who hns returned from his voyage to the west,* is brought before him and tells him of his wanderings and presents some Indians whom he has brought back with him from the New World. Then they ride on and the scene changes again. Once more we are at, the Court of France but here it is the court assembled at the Louvre and a throne is set up in the centre and lapestiieH unfolded round, while gorgeous halberdiers keep guard. The court of Henry IV. has succeeded that of Francis I.; resplendent in satins and silks of many colors, the ladies aiid'gentlemen troop in. A ptiviine is danced before tho King, who arrives in state, and to a young man, who stands ut the foot of the throne, is given a commission to set out where Cartier had gone beipre, mid Cham- plain receives his 'orders from the King. , . Then back tho next scene brings us to the little village of Stiidueona, and Ohamplain with his girl wife is le- coived with wonder by the savages. "The years again pass by, and Chaiuplain and his wife are long since dead. Stiidncona has become Quebec and the populace has increased* to over'200. The Governor, Mont- magiiy, goes down with his guard nnd receives the gentle and holy mother Marie nnd the ladies from Old France who have given up tlieir lives to bring the name of Christ to the new country. She teaches the little children the Bible stories that were taught to each of us at our mother's knee and the scone passes on. "A fort is being defended by 17 brave young Frenchmen against the hordes'of Iroquois, and the flying arrows', the awful war-whoops and final burning of the fort, recall to us some of the terrors and martyrdoms through wliich our forerunners had to pass. "Then the ashes of the little firt are swept aside and the sound of chanting falls upon our ears. The great archbishop, Mgr. do Laval, surrounded with all the stately ceremony of the church comes down to meet the representative of the King, who resplendent among his courtiers and his nobles, pays reverent homage lo the church.
