Slocan No. 12 Vol. 2, NEW DENVER, British Colur-ibia, Thursday, Nov. 14, 1907 CompreSiensive Scheme To Attract Capital To Our Fertile Valley. We live ploased to announce that si progressive step in Slocan history was made thia week Unit will lead to a great revival ln our lake towns and ultimate prosperity all along the line from Nakusp lo Slocan City. In the early part of this week Mr. S. M, Brydges,of the well-known Nelson linn of Brydge**, Blakeinoreand Cameron, Ltd., came to New Denver accompanied by Major 8. Harris! an Australian gentleman of means and a veteran o( the Boer war. It waa this gentleman's object in paying the Slocan a visit to inspect severe thousand acres of land owned by Mr. Brydges and large parcels owned hy local and other parties. For the lirst three days of tliu week the'o gentlemen weie out cruising this land early and lato, and aa the outcome Major llairia was so delighted with all he haH seen here that he contracted a'deal to finance the exploitation of 11,000 acies of really good land ideally suitable for the culture uf fiuit. We ran across Mr. Harris at the St James' hotel, where lie was resting after his three days' trudge around tho district, and he impressed 113 as being a man who could lie entrusted with something which we In common with every lakeside dweller have at heart, i.e., the fair name uf bounteous Slocan. In conversation with tho major ho aaid of all the lakes lie had seen, and he had econ many, never had lie seen anything ao grand or charming. This towns presents such charms to me that I have ���'ecided to spend a great part of next year here with my family. This lake offers such nt Unctions to louiists that it is 11 wonder to mc it has remained so long unknown. But they will come, rest assured of that. " With regaid to the land deal now virtually through, it is my intenlioii to put on that land the cream of Britisli ���settlers, and in this connection will sail for England at the end ot the present montli, and -straight away open an office in London, where I am well known. I have often wondered why the belter cla=s of Englishmen have not more readily come to settle, here, and I have concluded that proper overtures or inducements have not been made to them. In London for tho past ten years we have heard much about the prairie provinces, 100 acres free, black loam soil, Chinook winds, etc., etc., and this lias been effective in attracting immigrants of a class who wanted tome- thing for nothing. Now I intend to enlighten them more on this glorious province, and tho class we will reah will le those who have capital to go at lho cultivation of fruit in a businesslike way. I hope be'ore the spring to be back here again with a largo number of new settlers, settlers you will bo proud ot as neighbors. S. Mi Brydges was also interviewed bv our repr sedative, and he said : " For i-onie time I have been largely interested in land along Slocan lake, and now we have everything in shape for putting this land on the market. We are co-operating wilh Major Harris in exploiting these Slocan lands. It is just possible working on cxptrienre gained in other fruit-raising distiicts in the interim we will bu able to place ���Slocan lands on a more advantageous basis. It will be our effort to dl��pose of then: lands to men having sufficient money power to clear for tho plow practically the whole of tho lands we COlitrol here, and subdivide them, Then the i lea would be to 60II to British tettlers in small pare. Ik. We are going to have this in n:ind--wo duiutConsider this a po il' man's country. " We propose to bring* In Britisli settlers of a better class with moderate capital, pPOJila who will be able to start in business without any financial woiry or strain. ' - " In my opinion there is no better district than the S'oein. It has advantages over parts of the Arrow lakes in bo far as bettor transportation is con- C-'rned���a bi," feature in fmit-growing. " New Denver is unquestionably the prettiest (pot in the weat, and it should attract tourist trade. If iny linn succeed in tlieir efforts we will certainly make it known a3 a tourist resort. In my opinion tho Improvement Society should at once pi'jOtted to get out a very attractive folder descriptive of the attractions. You really have much to he proud of in your town. Tbey will lie somewhat surprised in the old country to learn that your town bus such advantages aa olootrlc light in your streets and hollies, a waterworks system, two schools, four churches, good Bldewalks, nnd 11 newspaper, etc. New Denver might be in the wilderness for all they know*. "Ob, yes; wc mean business. His the i ut jut ion of my firm to open a branch office for veal estate here." Our Fruit Growers' Column. The editor of the Slocan Mining Review has kindly placed a column'uf his paper at the disposal of those interested in fruit growing and farming, so that problems that confront us in this neighbourhood may be discussed and the experience gained by individuals may become the guide of all, and so that we may by taking council together advance our common interests. It is one of the cliief charms of agriculture that each locality has its peculiarities, that no general rules can be laid down that arc not subject to modifications to suit the variations of soils, climate, markets and conditions. It will bo for us to discover what are the possibilities nnd what the limitations that nature has imposed 011 us in thi. dlstrlc1*, for the sooner wo know our country, tho e loner wo shall he able to make a thorough suceiss of our enterprise. As editor of this column, I must a-dc the cooperation ol all Ihe fruit grow0'8 of this nelghborhoo '. Lei us hear nf your successes and failuies, let us hear of your methods and the Ti suit*! obtained so that wo may make the utmost of our country and find the greatest possible satisfaction from our labors. It is generally tbo difficulties of life that develop the best qualities in in and if thepiesent attack of oyster shell bark lice on the orohaids and garieiiB of New Denver brings the fruit growers together to cooperate for the extermination of the pest, it will probably be found to have done much good in tlie long run, Chief Inspector Cunningham is about to appoint a local inspector to see that every tree in the neighborhood is thoroughly sprayed and disinfected, it remains for us to lin.l a way to get this work done as effectually as possible. Thore is no question us to the proper sort of disfnfeotant to use. The mixture of limo, sulphur and salt when propeily made has proved its usefulness pa.*t all possibility of doubt, and now is the time to uae it rat, lor it will have to be applied twice during the winter. It. is not a very easy spray to make. His not a pleasant spny to use. It kills the insects by dissolving tbem and it begins to dissolve yur skin when it guts upon it. Moreover, it is not nice to * moll; it certainly does not improve your clothes, it can be mado on a large scile neaily as easily as in a Binall way, and if the' men who do the work are properly prepare 1 anl equipped, they can spray all day without inconvenience. All this proves that tho only way t-i do this work thoroughly is for the owners of fiuit trees to get together and give the work to two men whom they can depend on, then let the expenses ho divided ace "rding to the time taken to do each lot of trees. I believe that, it will bo best to endeavor to got cur lo a! uisp'.ctor, whoever ho may bu', to lake charge of tho spraying as well, as by so doing lie can best Batisfy himso'f Ihat the work is properly done and there can be no shifting of responsibility onto other shoulders. Besides the two sprayings with lime sulphur and sal*, there will need to be ono dining the winter, with strong Bordeaux mixture, i.e., copper sulphate (bluestono), and lini". Boidoaux mixture is tho standard spray for fungus diseases. It is an easy spray both to make and apply but it is not easy enough or ample enough for the grower of a few trees lo bother about and it wiil bo fai* better to put the whole matter of spraying iu the hands of two competent nun. Other sprays are often ri commended but they are proved not to bo so good and safe. For example, lye is often advertised and is paiticular- ly easy to make, but it damages the bark uf the tree, rendering it hard and dry and thereby checking growth. The fruit trees in Silverton have so fa1* entirely eso-tped Irom the oyster Bllell bark louse pest, at least Inspector Cunningham colli*I not find any, but the trees wero mossy and suffering gnatly from neglect, thecowa of Silver- ton evidently doing*moat of the pruning. There were also soverul bad eases of Apple tree Antbraciio**o, a fungus disease which if not loo fir advanced and deeply rooted, can be cured by Boidoaux mixture. This disease generally starts where tho bark is damaged, and such spotB as where two branches touch and rub are particularly likely places to find the disease, therefore in pruning a tree it is best to cut out one or the other uf all such branches.

To Elect Delegates Conservative meetings were held this week, both in Slocan City and New Denver, tho meetings being convened for the purpose of appointing delegates to attend the Conservative convention lo be held in Vancouver on the 22nd and 28 rd inst. Both meetings were very well attended. At the Slocan City gathering there were present Wm. j Hunter, M.P.P., and H. Bohnson, one of the representatives in the provincial j house for the city of Victoria. II. D. Curtis, president of the local organization occupied tho chair. Tho delegates appointed to attend tho convention were Denis St. Denis aud II. D. Curtis. At the New Denver meeting on Wcd- nes'ay evening Duncan McKinnon was in the chair, and A. R. Fingland was appointed delegate. After discussing ihe new departure instituted by the n -cutivo in disallowing proxies to tlie nro rata strength of tbe vote of each | iding, the meeting was unanimous in its condemnation ol the new arrangement. It was pointed out that by reason of the convention being held at Vancouver a full delegation would conveniently be present from all the coast cities *ind points within -easy access, but that a fair vote conld not bo obtained by the Iowdb of tho Interior fur observe reasons, and by the elimination of proxies frum outlying points the coast vote at the convention could swamp that of the interior. A strongly worded resolution was adopted, which will be piesentod by the New Denver delegate. Boitx.���At New Denver, on Sunday, the lOlh Inst., to the wife of F. II. Hawkins���a son. Now For Library. There was a very harmonious committee meeting on Wednesday evening of the Town Improvement Society, when every committee man was in his place at the appointed hour. Several matters relating to the beautifying of the town of constructing more sidewalks, and of sanitary conditions wero discussed and plans were made for a continued pro gram of usefulness. A leller was read from Hugh Nelson in which he dicw the attention of the committee to the very had state of the road between the Siding and upper town. A communication from Mrs. Rankine was read in which Unit lady urged the advantages of a publh library mid reading room and the committee discussed the mutter at great length. It was a proposition which found favor with all pr.aent and a committee to devise ways and moans was thereupon formed. Such a project iB indeed worthy, and one that will undoubtedly meet with the warm support of everybody in town. Who's Foxy Giandpa? Honest now; are you not glad you stayed with New* Denver?

BRYDGES Imperial Bank Block .. NELSON, B.C. iBr^fics. IfiSlaftemocc S. (Tamcron. LTD. I SWs Miss Rose Lectured Here. 1 Miss Laura Rose, who is now delivering lectures throughout the province on the "Dairy Cow," haa been sent out by the Dominion Government and in company with J. R. Anderson, Deputy Minister of Agriculture, has conducted many gathering** which havo been well attended in different parts of the province, and unquestionably much good will accrue from the information they are gratuitously giving to all who are interested in agricultural pursuits and the breeding and care of live stock. J. R. Anderson and Miss Rose arrived in New Denver on Saturday, but the deputy minister of Agriculture did not stay longer than was necessary to make Miss Rose acquainted with tho delegates awaiting the parly on the wharf. The meeting was hurriedly convened and in half an hour the hall of the Bachelors Club was tilled with an interested audience, several ladies being present. Miss Rose, who was thoroughly acquainted with her subject, is a graduate of the Agricultural College of Guelph, Out., and after being introduced by the chairman, Mr. J. C. Harris, she went straight to work. The lady's lecture was too lengthy lo report fully here, but those present gain ed much knowledge of a cow's anatomy and usefulness, to say nothing ol her mannerisms. Speaking for quality and utility she forcibly gave preference lo the Ayrshire, altliou .li sho had good words for the Holstein and lh�� Jersey. Pointers hIio gave to prospective purchasers of tho "family cow" were that it shou'd have a good appetite, it skin should be oily and elastic, its nostrils large, strong forelegs, largo mouth, and a good space between the forelegs, oily secretion in ear, her shoulders eloping out. A cow to bo a good milker must have s'rong nerves; a cow is constitutionally nervous, and the slightest annoyance to her at milking time would cause a depletion both iu the quality and quantity of the milk. It was a remarkable thing, the lecturer also said, that the cow* ate the greenest of green grass, whicli in a shoit time became rich rod bin il which again in a short period became 11,ilk. Milk was biood aud that accounted for its nutritious valuo. Another poiut of interest which the lecturer told her hearers was as follows: "Suppose," sho said "that you were leading or driving a cow which usually y elded, say, 12 quarts of milk, to its alud to be milked. Its udder was bulky and distended and an average yield was to be expected. But suppose the cow by accident Bhould fa'l and break its leg at this juncture, which necessitated the instant killing of the beast, and suppose a few minutes later the udder was opened, also all the veins leading to it, strange to relate, no veterinary surgeon or experienced dairyman would he able to find more than one quart of milk in the whole anatomy of the cow. This po'llt the lady made to bring home to her hearers the great care which was to be exercised in tho milk making stajie, i e., the time of milking, and that practically the milkmaid or dairyman were oesential factors in tho production of the lacteal fluid. To prevent a cow prematurely drying up it was necessary lo milk exhaustively at every sitting. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded to Miss Rose at the conclusion of her lecture, which Was delivered in a forceful and lucid manner. Missioner Baynes, writing to wish us success in our new venture, remarks that in former times Architecture was (he Press, and told great thoughts to the world fh stone, but now'the Press is Architecture, and is building up tho world of ideas and usages. He also tells of the great Gutenberg's "Dream of the power of the press" ; Ho was working in hia Oj .1 in the St. Ahorsgot Monastery, and iieiird a voice warning him that the power of his invention would enable bad mon to propagate then* wickedness and sow dragon's teeth ; prophesying that men would profane the art of printing, and posterity would curse the invention. He took a hammer and broke the type in pieces. Another voice bade him desist from his work of destruction, and persist in perfecting his invention, declaring that though the occasion ��f evil, God would make it the fountain of infinite good and give the right the ultimate triumph, Denver Apples Look Good to Nelson Scribe. Thomas Cunningham, provincial fruit Inspeotor-c-Wlip returned from New Denver Saturday night, brought with him a fine collection of apples, one of which measured 14 inches in circumference and weighed 20 ounces beside*! being of fino quality. They ure displayed in the Huuio Hotel.���Nelson Canadian. Comparisons Suit Slocan. The Family Herald and Weekly Star are making a great song and dance about a potato weighing G'-j' lbs. which was grown at Grand Forks, B.C. this year, but we can assure that journal that it would look like a degenerated hobo if placed alongside the spud which was taken (rom Geo. Williamson's ranch at New Denver a few weeks ago. This fellow breaks all records ; it weighs 7,'_ lbs., and is worth a column write up in our Montreal contemporary. If they have any doubts as 11 its existence we can ship it to them f.o.h. cars here. A Creditable Production. Our attention has been called to an excellent production entitled "The Silvery Slocan," an exquisite specimen of art photography which doeB credit to the photographers, Messrs. C. F. Nelson and F. D. Kelly of thiB city, and also to the printers, "Photo Engravers Ltd," Toronto. This little art troasuro will be productive of much good as an advertising medium and will no doubt tempt many tourists fo enjoy the beautiful scenery portrayed in its pages duiing next summer. There are 22 pages of half tone-cuts and descriptive matter printed on fine art paper enclosed in a silver- grey cover with the words "Silvery Slocan" embossed diagonally across the centre. Thr. book is published by Chas. Nelson of New Denver, and should find a place in every library in tho country. The price is 50 contB and they will be on sale on tho 1st of December. It will prove a delightful Christmas souvenir to a friend in the oast, and we tako great pleasure in recommending the most excellent production which is tho best of its kind that we have seen for many years. Nakusp Crowded with Visitors From our Correspondent. Our new sidewalks are completed this year, as far as the funds will allow, and the committee are to be congratulated 011 tho excellent work which bas been accomplished. Ihe boom days have struck us If the arrival of new people count, for they are coming daily and at present every house and shack in the place is occupied. Mr. Thomas Abriel lias had to use his hall to accommodate people. Vast improvements are being made by the new settlers and within a few years Nakusp will be another garden of Eden. Ogilvie and MoKlttrlck are now in possession of the Leland Hotel and the house is being overhauled. When finished it will bo one of tbe beat in the country. Dr. Brouse got ahurry up call to attend Mrs. Weneley, who was taken suddenly ill, but we are pleased to say sbe is now rapidly improving. Mr. Jas. Morrison spent a few days in Nelson on business.

We paid a visit la**t Sunday evening .it the church of St. Stephen, and were agreeably surprised to lind so Iar*_e a congregation, and the " mining boys' so well represented, but our surprise was soon dispelled after listening to Missioner Baylies' carnist discourse. Mr. Baynes is evidently the right man in the right, place, a practical, broad- minded and kind heaited gentleman, and who has the courage to speak his mind without fern* or favor.

The full import of the above despatch can hardly bo realized at once, but tho closing down of the mi nea and smelters of this great copper section will completely paralyze commerce within a largo area. Close on a thousand miners will have been let out by the end of the present week and no hope of rcaumptlon in the near future ia given. The last trains ot ore bave departed and the men havo all been paid off. if 100,000 was the sum total of tho wages paid out at Phoenix this week. It is strange that all this should be done and no explanations given to the public. Many conjectures aro afloat to account for the shut-down, such as ama'gamatiou, tightening oi money, over-production of cupper, and copper pools, but no official announcement has been made, and one is eagerly awaited by mining men throughout (ho Kootenay. The inauguration of the Canada Zir.c Company's plant at Nelson will be watched with keen interest by the mine ownera of tho Slocan, fir if successful in ita treatment of crude zinc, the patronage alone from tho Sandon and Whitewater mines would keep the operators hustling. Whether tho new electrical procesa will forever solre tho local problem of reducing zinc-lead ores none can yet say with the exception of iti projector, R. Irving, who la sanguine of pronounced aucceie. The procesa is said to have provad a commercial puc- eess in Sweden, and although the Nelson plant will not be exactly a replica of the European model ita essential factors are there. The progress of tho plant has been hampered financially for aome time, but about if 10,000 have been raised in Nelson to put tho project on a substantial basis and a restart was made Tuesday morning at tho plant. It isoxpectol that it will be in operation by the ond o( February or the beginning of March, depending largely upon the seveiity of the weather. The following Slocan mines made shipmen's to Trail emclter last week: Arlington, 71 tons; Vancouver 21; Rambler Cariboo, 20; Standard 23; Canadian Group, 21; Majestic, 18; Adams Group, 2; Whitewater 08, milled 600: Montezuma 120.

THE SLOGAN MINING REVIEW, SANDON, B. 0. .- w j Beverly of Graustark! ��H mm bark flB W-sW _._*__ ^W-!!* (Continued) - Kncnantea and confused over all that had occurred In tbe last few moments, Beverly murmured ber heartfelt congratulations to the Joyous couple. The orchestra had again ceased playing. All eyes turned to Baldos���the real Prince Dantan���who, glass in band, rose to bis feet. "Your royal highness, ladles and ���gentlemen, Graustark and Dawsber- "I have toon your love by the fairest meant." gen are entering a new era. I pledge you my honor tbat never again shall tbe slightest misunderstanding exist between them. They shall go forth to tbelr glorious destiny as one people. Your gruclous ruler bas seen (it to bestow ber band and affections upon an American gentleman, your esteemed prince consort. We all know bow loyally tbe people have approved ber choice. There ls one present, a trusted friend of your beautiful princess nnd lovingly called In your hearts Beverly of Graustark. Wbose example more worthy for me to follow than that of the Princess Yetive? With whom could I better share my throne aud please you more than with your belovedAinerl- can protege? I ask you to drink a toast to my betrothed, Beverly Calhoun, the future Princess of Dawsbergen." Every glass was raised and the toast drunk amid ringing cheers, The military band crashed out the air so dear to all Americans, especially to southern hearts. Beverly was too overcome to speak. "You ull"��� she exclaimed. There was a tremendous commotion in the gallery. People were standing tn their seats half frightened and amused, their attention attracted by the unusual scene. A portly negress, totally unconscious of the sensation she was causing, her feet keeping time to tbe lively strains of music, was frantically waving a red and yellow bandanua handkerchief. It was Aunt Kb nny, und lu a voice that could be heard all over the banquet hall she shouted: "Good Lawd, honey, ef der ain't playln' 'Away Down South In Dixie!' Hooray! Hooray!" ��� ������*��������� Hours later Beverly was running, confused and humbled, through the halls to ber room, when a swifter one than she came up and checked ber flight. "Beverly!" cried an eager voice. She slackened ber pace and glanced over her shoulder. The smiling, triumph" nt face of Baldos met ber gaze. The upper hall was almost clear of people. Sbe was strangely frightened, distressingly diffident. Her door was not far away, and she would have reached It ln*bn Instant later had he not laid a restraining, compelling hand upon ber Irin. Then she turned to fnce him, her lips parted In protest. "Don't look at me In that way!" ho cried imploringly. "Come, dearest, come with me. We can be alone lu the nook ut the end of the ball.

In her soul she was wondering why her tongue was so powerless. There wore a hundred things she wanted to say to hlm, but now that tbe moment hud come she was voiceless.

There bus never been an hour in which I hnve not been struggling for this glorious end. You gave yourself to me wheu you knew I could be nothing more than the bum- blest soldier.

After a long time she lifted ber lids, and ber eyes of gray looked solemnly Into his dark ones. "I have much to ask you about, many explanations to demand, sir," she said threateningly. "By the roso that shields my heart, you shall have the truth," he laughed back at hor. "I am still your servant. My enlistment is endless. I shall always serve your hlghuess." "Your highness!" she murmured reflectively. Then a Joyous smile of realization broke over her face. "Isn't It wonderful?" "Do you think your brothers will let me come to Washington now?" he asked teasingly. "It does seem different, doesn't It?" she murmured, with a strange little smile. "You will come for me?"

Could Sir Walter'Besant have lived until next October he would have ^seen his dream for East London ful filled far beyond bis expectations. In that month the People's Palace becomes literally the East End University. The senate of the University o! London is to recognize the art science and engineering schools at the palace as part of the university. One hardly needs reminding nowadays that the People's Palace in Milt I'.nd road was largely the outcome ol "All Soits and Conditions of Men.' Readers laughed and many scoffed at lirst at the novelist's idea for a great institrtion for entertainment and in struction in the heart of the East End. "A dream," Baid tho practical man ol the day. But some dreams como true ami thnt was oik* of tbem. "1 have been told by certain friend ly advisers that tin** story is Inipos sible," said Sir Walter Besant in hit preface to "All Sorts and Conditionf of Men." "1 have therefore stated the fact on the title-page, so that nc one may complain of being taken in or deceived. But I have never been able to understand why it ia Impossible." Within a few years of the publication of the novel the People's Palace was built. Within a few years of the death of the novelist tho schools of the palace become part of tho University of London. As foreshadowed in the book by the kindly Angela, this palage was to "awaken in dull and lethargic, brains n now sense, the sense of pleasure." Angola resolved that she would give the people of East London "a craving for things of which as yet they knew nothing. She would place within their reach, at no cost whatever, absolutely free for all, the same enjoyments'as are purchased by the rich."

Historic House at Jedburgh For Sale. From time to time most interesting historical relics come before the public through the medium of the auctioneer. The latest example of this is Queen Mary', house in Jedburgh 3nd some old tapestry which it has contained. Jedburgh has many points of interest. It has the ruins of an interesting old abbey, and some of the Jet- hart pear trees, which are believed to have stood from a period before the Reformation. According to Mr. James Tate, it has a sitrong castle at the highest part of the town, and some of the mansions were in the form of bastile houses, the defensive character being requisite as a protection against English inVfiSors. Of these houses the most interesting specimen now remaining is one in which Queen Mary lay nick for some time utter her, ride of fifty miles over moor arid moss to visit Bothwell at Hermitage Cas-| tie, where he had been wounded by the banditti of Liddesdalo. It is this house for which offers are being invited by Messrs. Hominies and Munro, of Edinburgh, Tho bod occupied by the queen at the time of hor illness is now at Ab- botsford, having been presented to Sir Walter Scott. There is a mass of corroborative evidence of the Queen's visit. In his "History of Scotland" Buchanan relates the incident connected with Bothwell, aa do many other authorities. The tapestry which covered the walh of the room is said to have been worked by the court Indies while they waited for the recovery sovereign. The Name In the Bat. In the fifties of tlie last century there were two young lawyers, Gould and Itoblnson, practicing ln the court at Wlscasset, the shire town of Lincoln county, Me., who were noted for their keen wit and Ingenuity In examining witnesses and also for their many severe thrusts nt each other. On one occasion, when Robinson bad finished an unusually able argument for his client, containing some stinging allusions to the opposing counsel, Gould, by whom he was followed and who retaliated, Itoblnson was seen to take a card, write something ou It, wblcb was later found to ho the Latin words caput vacuum (empty head), and drop It Into Gould's bat on the table. Gould's curiosity sent him Immediately to Investigate. Going to the table, he took the card from bis hat, aud, loud enough to bo heard all over the courtroom, he read, "Caput vacuum." Turning to the judge, he said, "Your honor, I claim the protection of tlie court." The Judge replied, "You may state your case." Gould answered: "My case Is this, your honor: I see my brother at my right has placed his name in my hat, and what can be bis motive If not to claim It as his own? I claim your protection." The Judge, with his face all smiles, ���nswered, "Mr. Gould, you shall be protected."���Boston Herald. FINE SPIDER THREADS. Cultivated Especially Ft the Use of Astronom* a. The cultivation of certain species of spiders solely for the fine threads which they weave for scientific uses has au important bearing upon astronomy. No substitute for tbe spider's thread has yet been found for bisecting the screw of the micrometer used for determining the post'tons and motions of the stars. Not only hecause of the remarkable fineness of the threads nre they valuable, but because of their durable qualities. Tho threads of certain spiders rained for astronomical purposes withstand changes in temperatures, so that often In measuring sun spots they are uninjured when the heat Is so groat that the lenses of (ho micrometer eyepiece are crneked. These spider lines are only one-fifth to one-seventh of a thousandth, of nn Inch In diameter, compared with which the threads of the silkworm are large und clumsy. Each line Is made up of several thousands of microscopic streams of fluid. Under the most powerful magnifying glass they appear true und round. The work of placing these lines In the micrometer requires the delicate touch of experts, who operate with the aid of microscopes which magnify tho Hue a thousand times. The lines are placed parallel with each other and two one-thousandths of an Inch apart. Not the Same. Merchant���I thought you told me he was a man of very good character.

"Ought the doctor to tell his patient frankly what is the matter with him, even though the disease be a fatal one?" This question, raised by the censure of a eoroner'H jury of a doctor whose patient, told that he had consumption, committed suicide, was discussed by a Hurley street, London, physician lately. Speaking to a Daily Mail representative, be divided patients into (1) those wbo wont to know the truth, (2) thos.* who already know, but hope to be told that things are not so had, and will gladly swullow a lie; and (3) those who do not want to know anything. "The majority of patients," he said, "leave the doctor no alternative. They demand a 'yes' or *no.' Take heart disease. The patient says: 'Is my heart diseased?' He is paying for your opinion, and you reply: 'Your heart is not sound; it is weak. Don't iiin to catch trains, and do not do this and that!' "The trouble is that heart disease to the public means one thing only- death. If it meant a variety or more or less grave affections of the heart we should not perhaps have those 'stand nnd deliver' questions. Another question is: 'How long shall I live?' No doctor who knows his business will set a limit by request on any patient's days. Many a doctor has boon borne to the grave followed by hale and hearty men that he 'gave up' years before." Doubling the Collection. In a small town in the midlands there is a rich congregation, which is not characterized by liberality. Time after time the minister had vainly appealed to his people to contribute more generously to the funds of th" church. The members would, Indeed, give something, but it nearly always was the smallest coin of the realm that was placed on the plate. A shrewd Scotchman, who had recently come to the place and joined the church, was not long in noticing the state of affairs, and a remedy soon sugfBRtod itself to his practical mind. "I'll tell you whnt," he said to one of the officials, "if you make me treas- nn.r I'll engaged to double the collection in three months." His of'er wus promptly accepted, nnd. sure enough, the collections be- enn to increase, until by the time he had stat d there were nearly twice as mi-ell as formerly. "How have you managed it, Mr. Sand ������man?" said the pastor to him ono day. "It':* ���* proM ""nrot," returned the (���ninny Soot, "but I'll tell you in confidence. The fn'k.

It Is a Liver Pill���Many of 'lie ailments that man bus to contend with have tlieir origin in a disordered liver, which is a delicate organ, peculiarly susceptible to the disturbances that come from irregular habits or lack of care in eating and drinking.

Girl Catches Burglar. A remarkable story of a girl's pluck and resource comes from the far north of Scotland. Saekvillo House, Bowen-by-Wick, the residence of Mrs. Sinclair Wem- yss, was broken into by a tramp, who is believed to be of German nationality, while the family wore at dinner. The lirst to discover tho intruder was the butler, who, after a great struggle, was knocked down and rendered unconscious. Two other servants attracted by the noise were attacked by the tramp, and during the scuttle the daughter of the house, 16 yours old, rushed out of tho dining-room, and at once took a patent firo extinguisher which was bunging on the wall from its book and squirted the chemical contents Into the face of the burglar. The man, utterly unnerved by this unexpected attack, nud believing, probably, that ho wus blinded for life, gave a shriek nnd bolted out of tho [rout door. He was, however, captured Inter on, and is now lying in tlie local jail awaiting trial. The extinguisher was a cone-shaped apparatus with a knob at the top. When the knob is struck on the floor the OxtingUisher can bo held horizontally, and a powerful jet is thrown a distance of ���,. foot. It was this jet which settled the burglar. Grim Jests.

Nevertheless, a remark somewhat of the same sort, whicli is attributed to Lord Chesterfield in his last illness, is undoubtedly authentic. Chesterfield was very, ill, and his death was only a matter of a few weeks; but his physician advised thnt ho be token for an easy drive in his carriage, and he wont out. As the equipage was proceeding slowly along it was met by a woman who remarked pleasantly to tho grout Invalid, "Ah, my lord, I am glad Jo see you able to drive out." "I am not driving out, madam," answered Chestarfield. "I am simply rehearsing my funeral." The King's Jester "Did you hear about the poker game in the ark?" the-jolly jester asked his royal nibs.

This fish lives mostly in shallow, muddy waters or swamps whicli dry up during the rainless reason. When the water disappears the fish burrows down into the mud and builds around itself u sort of cocoon by menus of a mucous whicli it discharges. In this cocoon it will live for months at a time in a semi-lethargic condition. It receives air to breathe through a tube which leads from the cocoon to the surfnee. When the dry season ends and the rain *e- turiis, the fish emerges from 'ts hiding place. Naturalists have known for a good many yenrs about this fish, but it was not until 1901 that J. S. lllodgett succeeded in obta'*}- ing a number of the nests, which tie took to England, The fish are quite large, all the males found by Mr. Blodgett exceeded 18 inches in length.

Htm ��� COINS THAT ARE BASE Metals and Methods Used Making Counterfeits. HOW THEY MAY BE DETECTED ALL HAIL PE-RU-NA. A Cost! of ���=�� STOMACH CATARRH.* Spurious Coins Cannot Stand tha Three Tests of Weight, Diameter and Thickness���Gold Pieces That Are Sweated, Plugged or Filled. The most dangerous counterfeits are struck from a die and are usually Imitations of ("old coins. Molds of various kinds ure extensively used, but counterfeits so made ure Inferior to those made witb a die. 'in counterfeits mnde from a>nold lettering, milling uud reeding nre usually poor und weight defective. The coins luck the sharp and clear r*ut np- penraneo of genuine coin. Most counterfeit silver coins in circulation nre made from molds, as It Is an Inexpensive form of counterfeiting. Some fair specimens have been produced In this way, but usually they are much lighter than tbe genuine and if of required weight differ In diameter or thickness. Various metals ure used hy counterfeiters, principally platinum, silver, copper, brass, antimony, aluminium, zinc, type metal, lead nnd their numerous compositions. Among the most dangerous counterfeits of gold coin are those of a composition of gold, silver and copper. They are a Ibw grade gold, and (he acid (est shows (hey luck the fineness of standard gold used hy (he United States mint, which is 900 fine, or 21.19 carats. These counterfeits average from 400 to 8110 fine. Platinum counterfeits are dangerous, as the metal used gives required weight, and thej* are heavily gold plated. When they hnve been In circulation for a time the plating wears off, especially on* the edges. The most dangerous counterfeit* or silver coin is ninde of u composition of antimony nnd load, the former metal predominating. These counterfeits arc of die dollar, have a lino appearance, nre heavily silvor plated, with fall- ring, and some nro only slightly below tho standard weight. Some pieces among the smaller coln** are made of brass, struck from n die and when heavily pluted lire fair Imi tut ions. They luck required weight. except In u few Instances. Counterfeit: of type metal, lend and other compost* tious ure much lighter than genuine Those linvlug required weight are much too thick. _ Genuine coins of all kinds, for thf sake of gain, nre tampered with iu va rious ways. These operations are confined almost exclusively to gold coin*-*, which are sweated, plugged nnd filled Sweating Is removing u portion ol the gold from surfuce of coin. The process does not Interfere with the rlngr-aj-d us the p irtlou removed ls gen orally slight the coin Is left with a very fuir appearance, weight only be lug defective. The principal .method-- of sweating are (he acid bath, filing the edges or reeding, the operator finding n profit In the small quantities of gold removed from numerous pieces The average reduction in value of coins subjected to these processes It* from one-twentieth to one-tenth. Plugging Is done by boring holes In the coin, extracting the gold and lilliu*.* tho cavity with n cheaper material.

The Stoull surfuce of the plugging material, where It shows on the edge of thee .in ls covered wltb gold und the reeding retouched with a file or machine The average loss In value to coins treated Iu this way is from oue-eigh!li to one-sixth. Coins of this kind are very dangerous, us they are perfeel ln appearance, only (he edges having been tampered with. Filling Is most eommouly doue by sawing tbe coin through from the edge or reeding, removing the Interior portion ar.d replacing It with a cheap metal. Coins of nil denominations from quarter eagle to double eagle are sub jeeted,to this process. When platinum Is used to replace gold extracted tlie coin has same weight us genuine. By this process coins lose four-fifths of their vulue, ns (he original surfaces are left only of puper thickness. When edges have been covered with gold nnd reeding restored the coin hns the appearance of being genuine, having correct size nnd weight nnd n fuir ring. Sometimes the covering of gold on edges Is so thin that tilling can be distinctly seen. When other and! less costly filling tlian platinum Is used coins nre of light weight and have a bad ring. If of correct weight they nre too thick. Another method of filling Is snwlng the coin partly lu two, from edge of feeding, on one side, leaving a thin nnd thick portion. The thin side of the coin ls turned back and the gold extracted from center of thicker portion. The cavity ls filled with buse metal and sides pressed back Into orlg Innl position and soldered or brazed together. It Is difficult to give average loss to coins treated in this manner, as hardly any two seen have tbe snme amount of gold taken from them. For detecting counterfeit coin compare Impress, size, weight, ring and general appearance with genuine coin of snme period nud coinage. The throe tests of weight, diameter and thlca ness should he uppliod. for It Is nl most Impossible for the oounterfeitei (o comply with these three tests with out using genuine metal. Miss Mary O'Brien, 306 Myrtle Ave., Brooklyn, N.Y., writes: "Peruna cured me in five weeks of catarrh of the stomach, after suffering for four years and doctoring without effect.

Moderns, however, owe the fumllinr nursery story directly to tbe Frenehmun, Charles Terrault, whose "Cindrlllon" appeared at the end of the seventeenth century. I'erruult took his Cinderella from earlier versions, which came uo doubt from the story of Rhodopis' bath. That Egyptian beauty had prepared to bathe when an eagle swooped on oue of her slippers, carried It to Memphis snd dropped It on the lap of King Psammetlchus as he sut administering justice. He admired It, had Egypt searched for Its owner, married her and ! lived happy ever after. The Very Thing A minister was on a visit to an asylum in the south of Scotland, when he was accosted by an inmate who fancied he was of the same profession, and who expressed his 'e- light at.meeting him, "I hue been lookin' oot for a brither parson for some time," said the lunatic, "as 1 hue used up a' my auld sermons, an' diuna ken what next tne preach." The minister expressed regret, ns "e was not aware of sucli a need on the part of a reverend brother; he hud come unprepared, and had left nil his sermons at home. Then, looking at the large number of inmates then airing in charge of attendants, he tried to appease the lunatic by jay- ing, "What a ni��*e congregation you have to preach to." "Ay," responded the lunatic, "there are always plenty here, but atween you an' me, it's no' a very intelligent une, so I thought vour sermons wnd be jist the very thing."

Ernest Thompson says: The speed of the coyote is great, and has often been the subject of admiring comment, but I think it has been overrated. After collecting data of various kinds, such as actual known records of dogs and horses, also the comparative records of dogs and hares, or horses and foxes, Wolves and hounds, hounds and automobiles. I have attempted a scale of comparative speeds: Min. Sec. Blooded race horses covers a mile in about 1 40 Pronghorned antelope 1 50 First-class greyhound 2 0 lack rabbit 2 10 Common fox 2 20 Northern coyote 2 30 Foxhound 2 40 American gray wolf 3 0 Many hunters would set the kit fox or swift above the greyhound, especially for a short race, but I have had no personal experience with the species in a chase. The little prairie cottontail can, I believe, get away from the swift in a hundred-yard dash; they cannot keep it up for long, but their initial velocity is incredible, and baffles the eye. Not a leg, not a rubbit is to be seen; nothing but a white streak across the prairie, till it promptly disappears in some burrow. What actually counts in the race is, as usual, the trifle more speed that each animal cun command. Coyote Is Faster. For example, the gray wolf makes 650 yards to the minute, and the coyote ubout 700. But thnt 50 yards makes all the difference between living and dying. That 50 yards margin is probably the foothold on which the whole coyote race has been built up. It is a well-known principle that the special development of an animal is ito most variable part. Thus the peculiar bell in the throat of a moose varies enormously, the bill of tho long-billed curlew, the neck feather of the ruff, the spots of the ocelot, the white bands of the skunk, the horns of the oik. am so varied that rarely two nre found just alike. Speed is one of the peculiarities of the coyote, as it is of the greyhound, and we must, therefore, look for great variations of rate. I hnvo selected an average for my calculations, but there are occasional individuals, coyotes of rare gifts, whose speed and endurance would put them very near the top of our scale. IMMIGRATION FALLING OFF. Decrease Reportad In Number From the United States. Immigration from the United States into Canada continues to decrease. The returns for April and May show the total number reported as crossing at all frontier points ns 16,535, as compared .-yith 19,710 in the same months of 1906, a decrease of 16 per cent. At the ocean ports there was an increase of 39 per cent.���namely, 73.193 for the two months this year against 52,794 in the some months of 1906. Reports from the Canadian agents in various parts of the United States in reference to the falling off show that immense tracts of good land in Texas and other states are being offered for settlement at lower prices thun they can be obtained in the Canadian northwest, where the railway and other facilities are as favorable as they nre on the other side of the line. The high prices at which the fertile lands of the Canadian northwest are held by speculators is giving an advantage to the holders of American unoccupied farming areas, which as a natural .consequence is calculated to still further divert the volume of American settlers from the Canadian to the United States west. A Burled City. A Canadian archueologist, who has for some time been engaged in excavation work on the site of some ancient buildings in Texas, on nounees that he has, as the result of his labors, discovered the undoubted traces of a large city of great antiquity. There is conclusive proof that the city flourished at a period anterior to the Aztec epoch. The ruins are at a considerable depth below thc surface, and little information is yet to be obtained. The Aztecs were the people whom the Spaniards found in Mexico, and there is evidence that they displaced a former race, the Toltecs at an early period. But long before the times of Cortes there had been successive waves of population that had spread over North and South America. Leaving out the Eskimos of the Polar regions, the primitive Americans are generally regarded as of one race, the earliest settlers coming from Asia. It has been suggested that America and Asia were in those pre-historic times connected by un isthmus where there is now the Behring Strnits. What was remarkable about the Toltecs and Aztecs was thc high degree of civilization to which they had risen* and such civilization is in itself proof of a long period of development. To the elucidation of this long story a buried city may materially contribute. Ontario Government Prizes. The Ontario Government are offering special prizes in the Natural History Department at the Canadian National Exhibition for the best collection of insects injurious to horticulture; for a collection illustrating the effects of fungoid disease upon cultivated plants, and for the best exhibit of woods and leaves from the forest trees of Canada.

Most persons suppose that the moon alone is responsible for the phenomenon of tides, but the attraction of the sun Is also an Important factor. Of course (he distance of the sun from the earth Is unthinkably greater than that of tbe moon, but Its mass Is so enormous tbat it bas a considerable tide producing influence. The force which the sun exerts Is the same on both sides of the earth at the same time, the tide producing force of the great orb being about four-tenths that of the moon. At tbe time of both new and full moons the "wune spheroids produced by both thc sun aud tbe moon bave their axes coincident"���tbat Is to say, the two great orbs unite their energies on tho fluids of our planet, nnd as a result the tides arc higher than the nverage for the remulnjng portions of the month. These are the "spring tides." The "neap tides" come In the time of the moon's first and third quarter and nre not as great as the average, because the moon nnd thc sun nre each working In opposition to the othec. SPORT ON LABRADOR COAST. Fishing and Exploring on the Lonely Northern Shores. Mr. Lawrence Mott, writing to The New York Herald of a sporting and exploring trip on the Labrador coast, gives a list of streams and bays in which great quantities of salmon and sea and brook trout are to be found. At various points on the coast caribou are plentiful, and at others there is! good bear shooting, an abundance of wild fowl, etc. In the course of his interesting article Mr. Mott accuses the Newfoundland Government of laxity in the matter of enforcing the game laws. He says: It seems a pity that His Mujesty's rivers should bo despoiled of their yield of salmon simply because of negligence on the part of the Newfoundland Government .and a glaring insufficiency of proper wardens. Sir Archibald Douglass, now stationed at Portsmouth, Kngland, did all he could to prevent this evil. His officers likewise; but there remains a stupid "nonchalance" on th_ part of the Newfoundland Government itself. In their own island they do not seem to care whether salmon are netted illegally in their rivers or not, and the same holds true of the caribou; A great mnny of the Newfoundland skippers take their wives on the Labrador; poor, thin women, that cook for sometimes ten or twelve men, and at night, by the flare of a kerosene torch, help to clean and salt the day's take of cod. The quarters on the average schooner ure dirty and Bmall; four men, including the skipper and mute, sleeping aft, two men to a narrow bunk. Just forward, with only a scantily boarded partition (rarely a solid bulkhead) between, is the after, or -jnain fish hold. The stench is therefore overpowering to one not used to it; and when on rainy, cold nights, tho little, but always most efficient stove is set going to red bent and * ie crew gather round in their wet, slime soaked clothes the reek is nauseating���but healthful. The struggle for a bare existence, the continual slavery of the sea, creates a callousness in these characters ��� usually seen in their utter carelessness of thoir own lives. Let it be known thnt "de fusli" are in a certain bay, or on a certain stretch of shore, and they will up sail, night or day, fog or storm, and away. Ice is thick on the const all through the fishing months, and fogs hover on the horizon continuously. The sort of warden that is appoint ed for a certain river is somewhat as follows���I describe John Smith, at the River of Ponds: A long, lank individual, with no common sense- else he would not have taken the job of four months' work at $40 for tbe whole���a man that will use his own nets under cover of darkness' on the plea that he has to be on the river io do duty, meanwhile shoving In groundless complaints against those who try to thwart him. Take it all-in-all, to "do" the Labrador on a schooner of one's own (chartered, if you prefer), in quest of sport, curious and interesting people, glorious scenery, most healthful .climate and in comparative safety, is a delightful way of spending three months. Lot a man who seeks sport and is willing to take the many discomforts in the way of bad weather and high winds, charter a schooner such as I had; let him engage a crew that work well together, and, most important of all, a "clever" skipper, and I can assure him of royal deeds with rod and gun. To add briefly. T would suggest that a sportsman might begin his cruises northward from Portaux^Bosques, Nfld., and fish the west coast rivers upward rapidly. We did this and found some fine streams, where the fishing is undisturbed by the flock commonly called "sports" from the States and England. On a trip of this kind one gets on insight of the cheerless lives of the fisher folk up in the barren North. Nearly all work and no play. Yet thev live hardily and the rough hewn natures have much that is generous and kind. For evample, when we arrived at Tub TTnrbor a group of fishermen came aboard. They had seen our American ensign and thought that we were a trader and that it was our house flag. We had no chart of Gros Water���*Bnv, and one of them at onco offered the worn, tattered sheet that he used on his own vessel. The chance that he might not see it again never entered his mind. He would not steal from us; whv should we carry off what he loaned? That is thp way those people argue. Vancouver's Chinatown. Vancouver has a gigantic Chinatown���a Chinese theatre, and a large amount of real estate in the city owned by the Celestials���in fact, one of the wealthiest Chinamen in America resides in Vancouver. A $500 poll tax is assessed against the Chinese who desire to vote. The shortage of labor has even brought up a suggestion that the tax be repealed for a year or so, until the market is supplied. The scarcity of labor is on acute problem, but the Socialist and Labor vote has to be considered. This silenced those who would otherwise declare openly what they secretly desire in the way of labor legislation. Some radical citizens of Vancouver, it is said, are willing to go through an earthquake to eradicate the Celestials. In some of the manufacturing establishments an effort has been made to employ the lanky, turbaned Sikhs. Many of these will eat no meat and have a half-starved appearance, which is no endorsement of a vegetable diet. Labor unions are against Hindoos to the last round, some of the white employes flutly refusing to work with them. These dark-skinned strangers have little desire to speak the English tongue, and their utter ignorance of the prevailing language makes it very difficult to employ them. Deprived of His Flogging.

This newsy little journal, which has tl ie interests of the Slocan nt heart, should find a place on every exchange table in the country.���Revelstoke Mail-Herald. New Denver for a number of years bad an able, lively and well conduct! d weekly newspaper, owned and edited by the brilliant B. T. Lowery. the recognised premier jester anil humorist of the province. Silver lead mining languished in the Slocan, times became dull in New Denver, and Mr. Lowery was compelled to move to another town, where tho opportunities for making a living and something over were greater. and New Dt-nyer wus left for eeveral years without a paper. It was found out a year or two since that the land along Slocan lake in the vicinity of New Denver was in every way suited for fruit raining aud small fanning -The result has been that many orchards, gardens and Bmall farms have been established in the neighborhood of New Denver, and they givj the people of New Denver another means of making a livelihood in addition to mining and lumbering. As a result of this Now Denver is "Ueginning to enjoy a new prosperity, which promises to.l*e listing because the people do not longer have to rely entirely on mining ami lumbering, which bave their periods of liveliness anil dullness, their ups and their downs. A Sign Ol thi:* prospeii'y is reflected in the (act that New Denver is again to have a newspaper, for J. J. Atherton has removed the Slogan Mining Review from Sandon to New Denver on the invitation of the improvement club of the latter town. Sandon has two papers anil can afford to dispense with one of them. Tho founding of .orchard*-, gardens and small farms in various portions of the Kootenays, and nearly every portion of it is suitable for such purposes* is certain to bring renewed and increasoil prosperity ill many portions besides the section around New Denver. Rosslivnd'e vicinity is especially welt provided with land which will grow most anything that can be succes- fully cultivated in the temperate zone, and the time is not far distant when every available acre around this city for many miles will he occupied and cultivated. This will b ing a larger prosperity lo Rossland, as it. has to New Denver, and therefore those most interested in the welfare of Rossland should aid in all possible ways in securing the settlement and cultivation of the land hereabouts.���Kosilaiul Miner. Our old friend the Kaslo Kootenaian poked a little fun at our taking up new location, in its last issue, all given in a friendly spirit, ami warns us to be careful of midnight visitors to our woodpile and bovines to our water-barrel. It aho said that Jay-Jay gave Sandon the best newspaper1 it ever had, anil wished us luck ill our new venture. This is not a venture���it's a moral certainty. Out wool-pile is conspicuous bv its absence, as at present wo can generate enough h it-air to take tbo chill off the rafifled ozone around our joint.
