Tinehead School.
To the Editor ol S0RR.T Tihib.
Sir,~-As a Surrey resident and
taking as I do, a keen interest in
school matters, I fully expected
that Messrs. lnglis or Davis would
have had something, however
feeble, to say in reply to Mr.
I). M. Robertson's scathing letter
which appeared in a late issue of
your paper regarding school matters. Not having replied, the
public are left to assume not only
that Mr. Robertson is perfectly
justified in tlie action he is taking,
but that these gents are possessed
of hides like a rhinoceros and are
utterly devoid of either sense or
shame, and it is now a question of
just how long the Tinehead school
electors will tolerate them. It is
rumored that Mr. Davis intends
to resign. This is the best thing
he can do, after what has happened,
and it has surprised many of his
friends that he should lend himself to such an unmanly course as
he has done; of the other fellow,
nothing better ever was expected,
as there never was anything in him
except what the snoon put there.
The Tinehead settlers are perfectly
safe in leaving this matter in Mr.
Robertson's hands and I will be
very much mistaken in my man,
if he does not see things put right,
and the school run properly before
be is finished with them.

few years ago several farmers in
this locality had flocks of sheep,
but the animals became affected
with a disease resulting from too
much dampness, and the breeders
dropped out of the business for a
time, contemplating better drainage to make better conditions,
The grouse season opened on
Tuesday, and town sportsmen
were plentiful in the woods and
by-ways of Surrey. Fortunately
there are still grouse enough left
for breeding purposes. A shooter
who was wearily making for home
along the Yale road was asked
what luck? "None," he said, "but
there was game in sight. A big,
fat grouse was sitting on a log, but
just as I fired, he dodged like the
Rand scheme, and I missed him—
aimed too high."
Trout Ashing in Surrey streams
is not the reliable sport that
townspeople arc apt to imagine
from occassional newspaper reports. On Saturday tlie Serpentine was lined with anglers from
Westminster, and at going-home
time there were still more anglers
than trout in sight. The fact is
tlie trout have not yet come up the
stream in any quantity. Just
after the heavy rains of last week,
Mr. D. M. Robertson, C. C. Cameron, and some others appear to
have dropped upon a school of fish
passing up the stream, and made
big hauls, and this being published
gave a false impression. Excepting that lucky catch, very few trout
have been caught in the Serpentine
this year. Anglers are having better and more regular sport in the
Nicomekl. Messrs. Churchland
and Laffere, and Dr. Kay have
had good success for some time
past in this stream, usually returning home with full baskets. The
river must be fished at low tide,
and wading boots are necessary,
One of the first families to locate
in Cloverdale was that (if Mr. John
McMillan, who, liko others of the
pioneers, had sanguine expectations
of the future of the now town—expectations that, unfortunately, have
not been realized, Mr. McMillan
struggled along with thp littlo community for nearly four ypars, but
last summer disposed of his property here, and is now up Kamloops
wiiy'looking up a now location. Of
his four daughters, ono is teaching
school at Whatcom, one married
Mr. John Mitchell, formerly foreman of the'Brunette logging camp
in Surrey, the third married Mr.
Alderman Munday, of Sapperton,
and the youngest makes her homo
with Mrs. Munday. On Saturday
last Mrs, McMillan left to spend a
fow weeks with her daughters in
Sapperton, after which she will go
to Whatcom. Thus all tlio members of tho family havp bid goodbye to Gloverdalp, very much to
the rpgret of a large circle of friends
here, who hoppd to have ihom for
neighbors for years to cbnip. Mr.
McMillan, it is probable, will call
around occasionally to renew acquaintance with old friends, but
the other members of tlie family
hove Ijkply left Cloverdale permanently, though no doubt they will
carry many kindly recollections
with thpm. All hero wil| join in
wishing thpm abundant prosperity
in their new locations.
The Grpat Northern Railway
people havp made a change in the
stopping place of thp train at
Cloverdale. This, wp presume, is
in response to tne complaint of
BUBBEY Times that this foreign
railway company wus operating
25 miles of railway through Canada, practically without accomodation for freight or passengers. Ar-
rangpments have been made for the
use of two rooms in the section
house—one for frpight and onp for
passengers, and tlie train now
stops opposite the section house,
This was an entirely unexpected
move on the part of the company,
and hy no means meetsthe vipws of
people here. Nevertheless, it
counts for something as indicating
that the company realizes that the
ppoplp along the Canadian section
of thpir road are entitled to some
consideration. Our crowded space
will not permit of a fair discussion
of thp matter in this issue. Next
week we shall have something
further to say.
The annual exhibition held at
Langley Prairie on Tuesday, was
very successful. The weather wns
threatening and some rain fell, but
there was nevertheless a large attendance of exhibitors and visitors.
The entries werp more numerous
than on former occasions, and the
display of products was highly
satisfactory, A good many people
were present from Surrey, and all
speak in high terms of the show.
Unfortunately the Editor of Surrey Times was held over on
business in Westminster and was
not able to avail himself of an invitation to be present. Better luck
next time.

To tit. Editor o( SORtt.y Times.
Sir,—In the Columbian's otherwise excellent report of the Exhibition held in Cloverdale last week,
the reporter takes occasion to
state, with a positiveuess not in
any sense justified by the facts,
that the removal of the exhibition
to Cloverdale three years ago, dissatisfied a "great many " farmers,
who refused to exhibit, and that
the dissatisfaction continuos to
exist, Also that Mud Bay and
Kensington \vere not sufficiently
represented at the late show, because of that grievance, lt would
accomplish no good purpose to go
into the details of the causes that
led to the removal of the exhibition
to Cloverdale, further than to say
that it was the wish of a very large
majority of the members, and that
the management knows of no one
of any particular consequence who
bus remained out because of the
removal. Other things, it is truo,
havcoccurredtoweakcn the society, j interest of the Society, in every

It will be observed that the
membership is precisely 47 names
in both cases. It will also be noticed.
that while there were eight or nine
non-exhibiting Westminster people
belonged in 1892, and who then
dropped out, as they no doubt
would have done in uny event, the
membership was made up by resident exhibitors of Surrey and
Langley. There is no one who
will say that was not a gain.
Then, as to Mud Bay und Kensington. In 1892, the society had
only one member from Mud Bay,
Mr. Dan. Johnston, President, and
he has continued to be a member,
while several others have been
added at Cloverdale, namely, W.
McBride, in 1893 ; A. Dinsmore,
A. H. Home, Steveson Bros., in
1894; and J. B. Loney and F.
McRae in 1895. I can find the
names of three at Kensington who
were members in 1892, and who
have not since been members at
Cloverdale, against four who have
joined since 1892, und f have no
ground to believe that nny one of
those three withdrew because of
tho change to Cloverdnle. One or
all of them may have done so, but
if so, their action does not speak
much for their intelligence, seeing
that a very large majority of the
members are very certain that the
but otherwise the Association has
gained in every way by the change

A milk white beach of coral sand, on
which wero strown thousands of ox*
qulsito shells nnd strange spongo forms.
In front, dancing blno waters of a
southern soo. stretching away into in*
flnito spare- and milled iuto flashing
whito caps by the stroug broath of the i
trade wind. Back of tho beach stood a
denso grove of cocoannt palms, stateliest
and most graceful of trees. The myriad
slender tips of their hugo leaves rustled
in tho warm wind liko tho sharp patter
of rain drops in a heavy shower. Down ,
whero tho whito trunks shot, tall and
slender, to the dim archos of tho living
roof all was in dark, cool shadow,
flocked now and then by dancing points
of golden sunlight.
Mingled with tho salt breath of tho
sen was a faint odor from spathes of
corn colored blossoms high up among
tho leaf crowns. Benoath these hung
clusters of fruit in all stages of development, from the size of a marble to that
of a football. On the ground lay scores
of tho great brown, ripened coeoanuts,
of so littlo value in that tropic land that
no one cared to pick them up. They
were protected by tough threo cornered
husks so thick as to more than double
their actual size.
On ono of them, turned on end, sat a
boy wearing a broad brimmed, high
orowned hat of palmetto braid. Ho was
clad iu a white ootton shirt and brown
linen trousers turned up at the bottom.
His feet wero bare, and his legs, hands
and faco were as brown as an Indian's.
He presented an ideal picture of youthful strength and that perfect health
only to be acquired through but of door
sunshine.
His face, generally bright and happy,
was clouded as he sat, with elbows on
his knees, resting his chin in his hands
and gazing out ovor tho glinting waters.
Tho object on which his eyes were fixed
was a small schooner moored 100 yards
from shore. She was not more than 80
feet over all in length, bnt was broad
of beam and solidly built
The month was March, and the beach
was that of one of thoso low cut, fertile
Florida keys that form tho southernmost limit of tho United States territory.
Tho boy was John Albury, commonly called Grit, to distinguish him from
tbo many othor John Alburys of that
region.
Tho schooner was the Polyanthus,
formerly owned by Grit's father, who
had been lost at sea the autumn before
in a boat belonging to a neighbor.
For many years, while he was a wid*
ower, Mr. Albury had only occupied his
homo on the key at long intervals,
spending most of the time with his boy
and girl, Grit and Matey, on board the
Polyanthus wrecking, sponging, fishing,
wbilo waiting for his cocoannt grove to
como into bearing, and, aa he finally
hoped, to yield him an income.
The life proved a very happy one for
all three, and it was a sad day for the
children when it was ended by the appearance of a stepmother, who, coming
from inland on the mainland, had no
knowledge of nor lovo for boats or the
water. Sho was not unkind, but she instituted a new order of things, strongly
resented by the sailor boy and girl
Mr. Albury was persuaded to clear land
and put in a crop. Grit weeded tomatoes. Matey was mado to sew and do
housework, while both children were
taught to road and write.
Now thoy bad very littlo of the sail*
ing that they so dearly loved and for
which they longed, for Mrs. Albury
could seo no good in boats. She even
advised hor husband to soil the dear old
Polyanthus and ship his crops by the
regular Key West trading schooner, bnt
this, to Grit's great satisfaction, he
steadily refused to do, though he so far
yielded to his wife's prejudices as to
spend most of his timo on shore whilo
thu "Poly" swung idly at hor moorings.
Whon tho father was lost at sea in
tho dreadful hurricane that noarly
swept away their homo aa well, Mrs.
Alhury's aversion to boats became so
bitter that she would sell tho Polyanthus to the first person who would offer
$100 for her.
"But, mother, $100 is a ridiculous
price for a fine boat liko the Poly,"
urged Grit "She can make that In a
single mouth."
"Sbe never has since I have known
anything about her," replied Mra Albury.
"No, for she hasn't had a chance.
You just let me take her, and I'll show
yon how much sho can mako."
"And get drowned liko your poor fa*
thor and leave me and Matey to tend
I tbo crop. No, indeed, air I Yon are too
j valuable to waste that way. I need yon
! ashore, and so do tho tomatoes. They'd
! bring in more money than any boat
j that ever waa built; you aee if they
dou't I shouldn't be surprised tf we
made all of $900 off the crop this year
aud twice that much after wo got all of
the land cleared and planted."
"Bat boats can make as much as that,
mother, and moro too. Why, at a
wreck"-—
"Nonsense! Thero aren't any wrecks
nowadays, and if thore wero what
could a boy liko yon do at ono? No, sir;
you stick to tomatoes. They're safo and
suro, and I'll put temptation out of
your way by soiling that boat first
ohanco I get. You'll thank mo for it in
tho end, soo if you don't."
Now, tlio fatal day had noarly arrived. A man lu Koy West had sent
word that ho was coming to look at tho
Polyanthus and would probably buy
her if sho proved ns represented. Ho
might appear at auy moment, and that
was tho reason why Grit Albury sat
gazing sadly at tlio dear boat on that
glorious March afternoon, instead of
gathering tho last of tho tomato crop,
which was expected to roalizo $200.
As tho boy slowly roso to return to
bis work thero camo a sound of flying
feet, aud Matoy's voico was heard, call
ing in joyous tones:
"Gritl Oh, Grit I Mothor wants you
to catch her a mess of fish and says I
can go with you."
Tho lad only nnsworod: "All right,
sister. Como along," but a sudden resolution, that ho did not put into words,
flushed Into his mind. Two minutes
later a singlo skillful throw of a cast
net into tho school of snrdiues, always
swarming alongshore, had provided n
sufficiency of bait, aud a light skiiTwns
dancing merrily over tho blue waves.
"Why, Gritl Whoro nro you going?"
demanded Matey as tho skill was headed directly for tho Polyanthus,
"Out to tho roof after fish," was tho
answer.
"But Grit"
"Nover mind (ho buts now, littlo
girl. That's whoro wo aro going, and
wo'ro going in tho schooner too. Mother
said Ush, but so far as I havo heard she
didn't Bay what kind of fish, and so, of
course, meant the best fish, such as
Spanish mackerel, kingllsh, yellow tails
or drums. You know that wu can't find
thoso shut off tho reef any inoro'n wo
can go out to whero they aro in a skiff.
Besides, sister, it's our vory last chance
for a sail in tho old Poly, She's going
to be sold, or rather given away, tomorrow, and I don't suppose wo'll ever seo
her again or own another boat."
Of courso this was convincing, for
Matey not only dearly loved to sail, but
was firm in her belief thut whatever
Girt said or did was right Thns on
hour later saw tho littlo schooner, after
a glorions run ncross tho broad Hawk
channel, anchored just insido the great
coral reef that borders the gulf stream
for moro than 200 miles, and on which
bngo breakers wore dashing themselves
into showers of glistening spray. The
fishing was superb and so absorbing that
the snn was sinking iuto its bed of
crimson and gold ero cither Grit or
Matey thought of starting for home.
When at length they wero ready to
go and attempted to get up the anchor,
all their strength on tho windlass failed
to bndgo it A fluke had caught beneath
somo great bunch of coral, and with
boylike carelessness Grit had neglected
to provide a trip Una It was quite dork
before he abandoned the attempt to recover their anchor and said cheerfully:
"Never mind, Matey, girl. It won't
hurt ns to stay out hero overnight, and
as soon as it comes light again I'll
dive down there and see what is tho
matter. I'm not going to cut tho cable
and lose that brand new anchor nnless
I havo to, that's sure."
So they cooked a supper of fish and
mado themselves so comfortable in the
snug little cabin that they rather rejoiced in their adventure than othor*
wise. So soundly did they sleep that
night that not until he was flung from
his locker on the cabin floor did Grit
awaken to tho fact that tho Poly was
pitching madly and that a gale was
shrieking through ber taut rigging.
Calling to Matey, tho boy sprang on tho
deck, where he was well nigh beaten
down by the furious squall of wind and
rain that just then hurled itself against
the Bchooner.
There was an instant of quivering
strain. Then something gavo way, and
Grit knew what bad happened. The
tense cable had parted, and they were
helplessly drifting at tho mercy of tho
storm. For a moment even Grit's stout
heart quailed. Ho could see nothing
save the ghostlike forms of leaping
breakers that seemed to crowd about
him from all sides. He could not even
tell from which direotiou tho squall
was blowing. Matey had joined him in
the cockpit, with as full an understanding of tho situation as his own. No
words passed between them, for none
eould have been heard above the shriek
of wind and the roar of wators. Thoy
seemed to be driving with frightful
speod, and, as tho brother and sistor
stood hand in hand, waiting thoir fate,
thoy oxpeoted that each succeeding mo*
ment would seo their craft dashed in
pieces on tho cruel reef.
Minutes passed, and still they swept
on. Suddenly Grit uttered a great cry
of relief that was almost a sob.
"We'vo passed tho breakers I Wo'ro
dear of tho roof I Wo'ro out in tho gulf I
Wo'ro safo, Matey, girl!" ho shouted.
To any one not a sailor It would havo
seemed that thoy woro anything but
safe, ont in the open sea, driving
through inky darkness, and with tho
worst squall of the season howling furiously about thorn, but Matey was a
sailor. She knew, nnd down In her heart
arose a fervent prayer of thankfulness.
Tho next ohange of scene was most
surprising. Daylight had come; the sun
waa rising. Before a gentle breeze, with
all sails set, tho Polyanthus was ap*
proaching a great steamship that had
struck on an outlying spur of the roof
during the blinding bewilderment of
the recent squall.
"I do believe it's a wreck!" Matey
had oxolaimod rapturously, wben her
sharp eyes first discovered the stranded
ship.
"Oh, if it only should be!" cried
Grit, who could hardly believe that so
great a piece of good fortune had be*
follun them. Then, with anxious, beat*
ing hearts tbe young Bailors had shaken
out thoir reefs and laid a course toward
tho lights that marked the dimly loom* I
ing hulk.
"Groat Scctt!" cried the captain of
tho stranded steamship aa ho caught
sight of the schooner's sails. "Here's a
reef wrecker alongside already. I be-
linvo thoso follows livo at soa and con
smell a wreck a hundred miles!"
"Hollo, thoro!" ho shouted a fow
minutes later as tho schooner drow
near. "Tako a lino, but don't you daro
como aboard. I'm not in humor to givo
up my ship to you pirates yet. So stay ,
whero you aro, and I'll como to yon."
"Don'tyou want your cargo lightened,
sir, or anchor carried?" inquired Grit
anxiously as tho eapfaiu slid down a
ropo and sood on tho Poly's deck.
"No. I'm not in a hurry to breakout
my hold, and I want to try something
elso boforo hedging,'' answered tho captain. "Who is captain of this craft?"
"I nm, sir,"
"You?" cried tho othor, regarding
tho lad incredulously. "Woll, then,
whero is tho crow?"
"There, sir," replied Grit, pointing
to Matey.
"Woll, I nm bloBBodl" gasped tlio
captain. "A boy nnd a girl! Eveu tho
babies iu arm turn wreckers on this
coast. Howover," ho added, "perhaps
you'll do as well as an older. Can you
divo?"
"Of courso I can, sir," answered Grit
promptly.
"Aro yon afraid of sharks?"
"I should say not," was tho contemptuous answor.
"Well, my men nre, and I can't oven
swim, much less divo," conlinuod tho
captain, "but 1 want a diver to go flown
and tell mu just how my ship lies. I
havo a plan that I am anxious to try, if
things uro as I think, if you'll help mo
carry it out, I'll give you $000 for au
hour's work, provided WO get this ship
off within that time. Is it a bargain?"
"Put it in writing and hnvo it witnessed, eap'n," replied the cautions
Grit, "and I'll sign the paper. It only
holds for one hour, though. Then, if
you're not afloat, we'll mako n now
bargain, and if she's to bo lightened
I'm to be wreokmaster and tako chargo,
'causo mine is tlio first (schooner hero.
Is that right?"
"Yes, that's right," smiled tho captain grimly. "I reckon you've taken
part in wrecks beforo?"
"A few," laughed Grit
By tho timo tho paper was mado ont
and handed to Matey for safe keeping,
Grit was ready to perform his sharo of
tho bargain. Ho dived from tho bows of
tho schooner and was gouo nearly a
minuto. Then bo camo up for breath
and almost immediately dived again. Ho
repeated this operation four times without tolling what ho hod discovered.
Meanwhile the passengers and crew of
tho steamship crowded tho rail, and
leaning over watched his operations
with breathless interest
Finally tho young diver clambered
aboard and related to tho captain that
his ship had struck, well forward, on a
narrow ledgo with deep water on both
sides, and that sho was afloat, with tho
exception of a space 10 feet long near
her bow.
' 'That is just abont what I gathered
from soundings," replied tho captain.
"Now, I want you to go down again,
taking n lead liuo with you, and locate
Borne good sized bolo or crevice as near
the bottom of the ledgo as yon can get
Leave the load behind to mark the spot
where you come up."
Grit wondered at this strange order,
bnt did as directed, and after several
descents iuto tho clear water finally located a deep fissure nearly 20 feet beneath tho surface.
"Is tho holo largo enough to hold
this?'' asked tho captain when the yonng
wrecker again came on board tho schooner. As he spoko the former held out a
square tin canister to which was attached a reel of slender copper wire.
"Yes, sir," replied tho boy. "It's big
enongh to hold mo."
"Very Rood. Now, if you will go
down onco more, taking this can with
you, and thrust it as far as possible into
tho holo, I will not ask you to go into
the water again."
Grit cast a curious glanco at tho captain's faco to seo if ho could detect any
indication of madness, but the only
signs ho discovered were of perfect intelligence and an iudomitablo will
Still, as tho boy again stopped ovor the
side ready to descend into the crystal
depths and the canister was handed to
him, his suspicion of tho captain's sanity was revived by the hitter's parting
instructions.
"Tako care of this can as you would
of your own life,"hosaid earnestly.
"Don't let it hit against anything, and
placo it gently as far in tho crevice as
you can reach. It holds your life and
fortuuo as well as mine."
Thoso words wero so strange, and the
whole business was bo different from
tho nsnnl proceedings in connection
with a wrecked ship, that oven ob Grit
worked at his novel task far beneath the
bluo stir faco tho ouo thought that filled
his mind wus, "Ho is as crazy as crazy
can be." Howover, ho carried out his
instructions, and whon ho regained tbe
schooner's deck he found it occupied by
! all tho passougorsof tho stranded steamship.
"Tako them off on a flvo minutes'
cruise," ordered the captain aa with
his own hands be cast off the linos
holding tho schooner. Thon he swung
himself np the steamship's sido and disappeared in his own cabin.
At the end of five minutes tho Polyanthus was noarly a quarter of a mile
away, and her young skipper, who was
trying to answer a hundred questions at
onco from the bewildered passengers,
was also wondering what he should do
next All at onco it was noticed that the
propeller of tho great ship was working
furiously backward.
Then camo tho most surprising thing
that has ever happened in all the annals
of wrecking ou tho Florida roofs. Thero
was a heavy vibratory explosion, accompanied by a muffled roar. To those
who happened to be looking toward the
ship at that moment she seamed to be
lifted bodily from the water. The next
instant sho was enveloped and hidden
from view in a vast, fonntainlike col*
umn of foam. Directly afterward the
ship reappeared floating as steadily ob
ever in hor lifo on tho groat billows of
tho mysterious submarine disturbance
and running rapidly backward.
Lato that afternoon tho schooner
Polyanthus again picked up hor moorings off the glistening coral beach, and
tlio young wrcckors mado their way to
tlie littlo houso benoath the coeoanuts,
in which thoir stepmother, ns yot unconscious of thoir return, sat noarly distracted by a sudden accumulation of
troubles. Sho was wild with anxiety
over Grit and Matey. A man had como
from Key West to look at tho Polyanthus with n view to purchasing her, but
finding hor absent aud being pressed for
time had gono nwuy again. Ho hnd,
moreover, left behind him a letter from
tho northern commission houso to which
Mra Albury had sent hor tomatoes,
stating that tho entire shipment had arrived spoiled and unsalable, ro that instead of boing entitled to returns from
thom sho was indebted for freight
charges.
As tho poor woman sat quito overwhelmed by lier misfortunes thereenmo
au exulting shout outside, and tlio next
moment Grit and Matey rushed in,
alive, woll aud breathless with excite
ment,
"Hurrah, mothorlM cried tho former
as ho wildly waved n slip of paper
above his head. "Wo'vo got your fish
nud only staid out, a little longer tOglvo

"Yos, wo'vo been wrecking!" chimed in Matey, "ami we've wreeked a big
steamship, Grit nirl I and Poly hnv
nnd got her off all right, and you won't
soil tlie dear old boat now, will you,
mother?"
"What on earth do you crazy children mean?" exclaimed Mrs. Albury j
slowly as sho took the New York draft
for $500 from Grit's hands to examine
it "How could a mere boy and a still
younger girl liko you two wreck a big
steamship and get her off?"
"Ma," replied Grit, with nmischievous twinkle iu his eyes, "I don't exactly understand myself how wo did it,
but I think wo blew iier up with dynamite."—St. Louis Republic,

A NOTABLE WEDDING.
IlandelN Plaglarl-unii*
As a plagiarist Handel claims special
attention. Other men's musical ideas
crowded upon his receptive mind as
lavishly as did his own, and bo seoms to
havo turned thom very largely to account. A later age, with a more scrutinizing oyo and analytical crnzo than his
own, haa discovered that Handel lias
justly entitled himself to tho reputation
of being a musical pirate, as bold and
barefaced as was ever abroad. Ho did
not merely borrow ideas — he lifted
whole movements en bloc.
One chargo will suffice, although
Erba, Strndel la, Colonna and others have
all been laid under contribution. When
in 1743 a grateful nation returned
thanks for the battlo of Dottingen, Handel provided a "To Deum," presumably
of his own composition. It has been discovered, howover, tbat tho composition
is mainly the musio of a "ToDoum" bv
Urio, who was a chapel master in
Venice in tho seventeenth century.
No loss than nine movements in the
j "DettingouToDenm" aud six in "Saul"
aro "cribs" of an amazing and audacious nature for Urio's work. What
induced Handel to thus appropriate and
palm off as his own other men's work
no ono has discovered. It is a great blot
on an otherwise honorable artistic career and is the loss excusable because
it must have boon even less troublo for
him to write an original movement limn
to copy one.—Blackwood's Magazine.

A Story Vuli uf Interest.
from Hie 1'.itimliK'r, Hun Francisco, rut.]
Thoro Ih at leant one happy man in
Han FraneiHco today—ono mini who
can enjoy, doKpito thu fact of bin lieing
sixty yoars of ago and of corpulent
build, thu full and 1'ree imo of all tho
powers of mind and body.
Junius Koouhu is a prominent liquor
driller at 35(1 Hrauiiiin Btruut, and it iH
ho who in now huidiiiK those who have
roHtorod hiin from a bed of pain to IiIh
former youthful activity. Mr, Keenan
had, to within a year ago, been blussud
with tho enjoyment of iilmust perfect
lien Ith.
It wuh n year ago that Mi. Keonau
Ili'Ht mi tiered the hand of disease to
take hold upon him. At that time he
wiih stricken down by uu aggravated
attack of rheumatism, whioh robbed
him of tho use of his lower limbs aud
of both hiH hands. For fully six weeks
he lay on his couch, a helpless victim
of tho dread diduuso, and all the time
ho Huffored intense pain in tho affected
portions of hiH body. Ho eould uot
move himself upon his bed, and all
that ho ate hud to bo fed to him by
those iu attendance. Ho had about despaired of ever gaining release from
the clutches of the frightful disease,
when one morning his attention was
drawn to un advertisement in a morning paper, of a remedy for rheumatism.
The story of what succeeded this causal
glunce at a medioine advertisement
cun best be told in the words of Mr.
Keenan himself, who, when asked for
un explanation of his seemingly inirac*
eulous cure, gave the following account:
"It seemed tome that after all the
weeks uf terrible suffering thut I had
endured there could not possibly bo a
relief. 1 hud no faith in patent medicines, and when I saw in a paper the
advertisement of Williams' Pink Pills
I was induced to try them only in sheer
desperution. I did not feel any relief
until I begun taking the second box of
the pills, but then the pain began
gradually to leave me, my appetite became better, und I could sleep soundly
throughout tbo uigbt withont experiencing any of the jerking pains that
had before kept me awake. I continued to take the pills and it was only a
short time until tho rheumatism had
entirely left my hands, and I had so
far recovered the use of my legs as to
be able to walk about the house without assistance. In about two weeks
more I was entirely free from the disease, but I took two more boxes of tlie
pills as a precaution against a return ol
the rheumatism. From tbe time that
the lust truce of the disease left me 1
have not felt the leust sign of its return, and I oan truthfully say that 1
uow enjoy as free use of my limbs as
ever I did before the rheumatism attacked me.
"I have taken the pains to recommend Williams' Pink Pills to a number of my friends who are suffering
from rheumatism. I think I know ol
no other remedy that will afford snob
quick und permanent relief from rheumatism as do Williams' Pink Pills,
and I only hope that many others may
be brought to see and feel the high
curative powers that the pills possess."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in
a condensed form, ell the elements necessary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.
They are also a specific for the troubles peculiur to femules, snoh as suppressions, irregnlurities und all forms
of weakness. Tbey build up the blood
and restore the glow of health to pule
and sallow cheeks. In men they effect
u radical cure in all cases arising from
mental worry, overwork or excesses of
whatever nnture. Pink Pills ure sold
iu boxes (never in loose bulk) at 50
conts a box or six boxes for $3.50, nnd
may bo had of nil druggists, or direct
by mail from Dr. Williams' Medicine
Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

A well to do gentleman of middle
ago said to mo several days ago: "Do
yon know that I hud nithor shell greeu
pens than do almost anything olsoP My
wife Bays that it demoralizes tho servants to havo mo do it. but I'm not living for tho servants.
"Tho other day I sat down on our
back porch with a pun of my favorite
vegetables in my lap, und was enjoying
myself in grout shape, far from the
madding crowd, for my wifo had some
swell callers.
"All of a suddon I hoard a woman's
voice say:
" 'Oh, I inufit see your cute back
yard; I'vo heard so much of it.'
"Theu the window flew open und ont
popped two pretty bonneted heads.
"I turned mine uwuy, and my wife
was equal to tho occasion.

A nidlculotn- Mistake.
The other day, in a publio place, two
suburban schooIinistreHses fell into conversation with a precise aud somewhat
airy lady, uot from Boston, who began
to criticise the attainments of Boston
teachers. "It is most extraordinary,"
she said, "what ignorant people they
employ to teach school in Boston. Snch
English as thoy sometimes speak I" The
two schoolmisiresses ventured to ask
what unfortunate peculiarities she had
observed in tbe English of Boston teachers. "Why, their pronunciation is so
bad," sho answered. "Jnst fancy—I
heard a Boston teacher tho other day
say 'programme.' " The two teachers
opened their oyes, wondering why people
shouldn't say "programme." They
hardly dared to ask, but the lady enlightened them. "When any one who
had been to school at all,'' sho added,
"should know that it should be pronounced 'program!'"—Boston Transcript
The Ruling Passion.
"I was coming down town the other
day about noon," suid a man on a grip
oar to a Journal reporter, "and a party
of girls from tho high or ono of tho public schools was just ahead of me. They
started to cross the street jnst as a wagon came along at a rapid rate. The
wagon brushed the girl in front, and
sho fell to the ground. I think sho fainted from sheer fright Of course, several
of ns who saw the occurrence ran over,
picked her np and carried her into a
drug store that was right at hand. As
she seemed to be unconscious one of ns
said in lack of knowing what to do, 'I
think we onght to give her something.'
The girl sort of half opened her eyes
and said sleepily, 'I'll take vanilla,
please.' Well, yon bet, she got her vanilla, and a few minutes later she was
walking off as spry as if nothing had
happened."—Minneapolis Journal.

ASKING THE CAPTAIN.

"Once on au ocean steamer," said a
traveler, "wo hnd a heated shaft bearing, or something of that sort, so that
tho engines stopped for flvo or six hours.
I hud often read nnd heard about how
tho captain wuh tho great mogul aboard
ship, how about all things pertaining
to the utTuii'H of tho ship he hold aloof
and must not bo approached by tbe passengers, nud that it wuh a sort of violation of the unwritten rules of tho sea
for a passenger to ask the captain anything. And thero may bo soma reason
in all this; if ono passenger might ask
him, 40 might, and surely tho commander of tho ship ought not to be unnecessarily disturbed by uhoIohh questions.
Wo had been lying thoro threo or four
hours waiting. There wns no dangor
Whatever, but it wan a doluy nud au incident of interest, and of courso all tho
passongors talked abont nothing olso—
the common information was that ths
delay was due to a heated bearing,
"I wiih standing on the upper deck
by tha door to the main compauiouway
loading to tho deck below. The captain
camo along the upper deck from tho
after purt of tho ship uud wont below
by that companion way. Ho must puss
within n foot of me, und under tho cir-
onmstauoos it did not seem liko a violently unreasonable breach of salt water
etiquotto to ask him what wus the matter, which I did. A passenger who stood
cu tho othor side of the doorway looked
at me with the amused smile of an older
traveler. Tho captain said nothing. He
simply passed on, to ull outward appearances quito unconscious of my question or even my presence, "—Now York

Twin serpents interlaced aro among

slender spirals starred with tiny lilies,
each end terminating in a flower-de-luce,
is another design; littlo wheels witb

not. The Mayor, in justifying his
veto of the resolution, stated
amongst other things that he had
been "approached" in the Bullen
interest with promises of advantage. This" was corroborated by
Mr. W, E. Townsend. Other evidence of a like kind was adduced,
abundantly sufficient to utterly
discredit tbe Bullen scheme, without at all taking into consideration
the many pointed allusions to the
peculiar methods of that American
Company. Tlie decision of the
meeting was emphatic, The Bullen negotiations are off permanently. There does not appear lo be
uny material difference of opinion
in that regard, and, indeed, there
could not be by a self-respecting
Community,
Provided the City decides lo proceed with the enterprise) the choice
is now between the Hamilton bridge
und the Dominion bridge. The
former has all along been considered too costly, and as we have al-
reudy pointed out the swing is so
located as to seriously impede navigation. Tliis company, however,
offers important Inducement* In
the way of accepting tlie city's
bonds at par, and has an earnest
advocate in Aid. Johnson, who has
been alone in insisting upon the
advantages ol the Hamilton offer,
uud undoubtedly merits great
Credit for his persistency and his
Unquestioned zeal In Ihe public interest. By his representations tlie
public meeting was induced lo instruct the Council to re-open negotiations witli the Hamilton Company, and whoever may come of
this move, it is cerlainly pointed in
the right direction.
Those who favor the Dominion
bridge claim for it two advantages
over the Hamilton plans, namely,
Cheapness and proper location ol
the swing. These merits have been
advanced al former limes, und, we

heaving the bridge plans now to
work out 011 their merits, u brief
reference to the peculiar attitude of
the Westminster Columbian in regard to the bridge, seems in order.
The Columbian being the only newspaper published in Westminster,
people throughout the district
uth of the Fraser are accustomed
to look to it for current Information
on bridge matters. And so it lias
happened that an odd feature of
the Columbian's bridge advocacy
bus been noticed. It is this : When
the Bund scheme is on, tbe Columbian is decidedly in favor of bridge
construction ; when the Band
heme is off, the Columbian believes that sewerage is of more con-
icquence than bridge, anyhow,
Just now the Band scheme is off,
und our Westminster cotemporary
is very much concerned about sewerage. The people of the district,
however, ure very much concerned
about the bridge, upon whatever
scheme it 'be decided to build it,
und the questionable methods of
the Bullen people has caused them
to give needless ear to a silly rumor
that there is u compact of peoplo in
Westminster who have a very substantial interest in preventing the
construction of the bridge upon
any other lines than tlie Band
lines. People who are acquainted
with the sterling integrity of prominent supporters of the " Bund
scheme," of course trcut this idle
rumor us it deserves, but those not
so well informed may chance to
huve their ideas led astray by little
coincidences that would be of no
significance to better balanced
minds.

$:;.".! 1,1 h 111, There Is something | but their outgoing correspondence'ever bear of such wretched nianage-
ncgligcnt treatment of the rural
Agricultural Associations. About
at the last moment, without notice
or warning of any kind, tho gram
to the several district Societies bus
been reduced by more than one-
third. There is no excuse for tliis
blundering carelessness. If it had
happened this year for tbu first
lime, some allowance might bo
made for the proverbial dullness of
beads of departments in Victoria,
but as a matter of fact the injustice has heretofore been perpetrated again and again, ami always with the sumo result of embarrassing Iho Associations and
throwing thom iulo what is called bankruptcy in commercial
language.
Hero is a statement of tho case:
Tho Agricultural Societies Act provides that the Treasury Depart-;
ment shall pay over to the Agricultural Societies ouch year any
monies appropriated for tho purpose by Iho Legislature. During
the last several years such a grant
has been made annually, and the
money has boon, presumably,;
equitably divided among existing
Associations, to which procedure no
objection may betaken. But there
appears to be no limit to the number of associations lhat may be
organized, or to the dale up to
which such organization may
take place. It follows, then, that
the Legislative grant of any year
may by the undue increase of Societies to share in it, utterly fail of
the purpose for which it wus voted.
This is exactly what has frequently occurred. One such miscalculation should be sufficient
for tho Minister who is responsible
for this particular class of legislation, but Victoria "statesmen " arc-
not so readily influenced. Their
ideas are apt to run so brilliantly
in the direction of extravagant
ornamental buildings and burdensome publio loans, that really they
have no time to devote to a few
paltry hundreds of dollars, thnt
affect nobody but some thousands
of inconsequential farmers.
Look ut what has happened in
Surrey the past four years: In
1891) tbe Government grant to tlie
Surrey Agricultural Association
amounted to *342. In 1892, without any notice, this amount wus
reduced $2ti(i, with the result thnt
the Association could pay only 80
per cent of its just debts. In 1898J
the department was communicated
with before the prize list was compiled, so tbnt the Association could
keep within its revenue. It was
intimated that the grant would
again be $200. Instead of that, it
was reduced without due notice to
$'200. The board of management
decided to borrow money on private p.uprr and pay liabilities in
full. For two years, the Association has been strugglirig with this
loan, and succeeded n few months
ago in paying it off. Ih 1894 the
grant remained at $200. This
year, before tlie prize list was
issued) the Government advised
tho Association thnt the grant
s excusable to "squeal when you're
•'hurt."(
If tho Government lacks capacity to remedy this simple grievance,
the Legislative grant had bolter
couso in tbo meantime. Horo,
people beliovo that new societies
organized after a staled dale, say
1st June, should not share in Iho
grant of tbut year. The other
societies could then be told exactly what thoy would receive and
could govern their prize lists
accordingly.
