VOL. IV. NO:-21 KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, THURSDAY, APRIL 18, 1912. $1.50 Per Annum. \ Meeting of City Council AW. Millie Returns to Duty - Big Batch of By-laws Await Assent of Electors The council met Monday morning, the only absentee being Aid. Raymer, Aid. Millie having returned to his accustomed seat at the foot of the table. He was welcomed by the mayor who voiced the general pleasure in seeing him back to his duties. The following accounts were passed: ��� E. G. Fuller, refund of deposit on light connection ��� - - 27.50 J. A. Bigger, building inspector's salary, March quarter - - 30.00 Kelowna Carriage Works, repairing grader and aupplies- - ��� 34.75 Board of Works pay sheet - - 235.50 J. A. Bigger, contract price of implement shed .... 595.00 A letter was read from the Municipal Construction Co., acknowledging order for wood pipe, which they stated would be shipped inside of a week. A petition was presented from residents on the north side of Lawson avenue, for a cement sidewalk. This was laid aside to be considered along with other applications. The following letter was also read :��� To the Mayor and Council, Dear Sirs,��� On behalf of the Kelowna Gun Club the writer would like your permission to use the field north of the cannery for trap- ahooting purposes. The site in question is sufficiently largeto eliminate any chances of accidents to non-participantB. F. W. FRASER. It was decided to grant the required permission. Aid. Millie drew attention to an item in last weekV accounts of a payment to the ci'y solicitor for preparation of special deeds. He asked if this was in order, and if so, what the city solicitor's regular salary of $60 per month was supposed to cover. The question raised some little discussion on the subject. Aid. Millie considered the salary should be sufficient to cover the preparation of the by-laws which was at present chiefly being done by Aid. Sutherland without payment. He questioned whether it would not be better, as the regular consultations of the solicitor were so few, to pay for them individually, rather than pay a fixed salary. It was pointed out that the city clerk had frequent occasion to consult the city solicitor, and the present arrangement was a great convenience in this respect. Aid. Taylor said it would not be wise to attempt economy in legal advice. The clerk could now consult the city solicitor at any time when a difficulty arose, but he might hesitate to do so if it meant a fee of $5 each time. Aid. Copeland suggested some form of contract to define the solicitor's duties. Eventually it was left with the Finance Committee to look into the matter. Aid. Millie ventured a suggestion that the council hold its meetings in the evening.but was immediately pounced upon by Aid. Taylor, who expressed a decided objection to this. He said it was his custom to work all day and play all night��� meaning, of course, that he did not desire to work day and night too. By-laws 107, 108, 109, 1,10. Ill, 112 and 113, were considered by the council in committee, and , afterwards read a second and third time. By-law 114, to borrow $20,000 for permanent street improvement on Bernard Avenue and Pendozi Street, was read a first time. A resolution was passed that the \ six money by-laws, Nos. 109 to 114 be submitted to the electors and a vote taken upon them in the council chamber on Wednesday, May 1 st between the hours of 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. and that the city clerk be appointed returning officer. It was staled that a complaint had been made by Mr. Budden about the killing of hogs by the Chinamen on Sundays, The mayor said the police had already had the offenders up in court and they had been fined. Aid. Millie introduced a matter of some importance to users ol electric power in the city. He suggested that the city supply the transformers which are at present necessary before a motor of any size can be connected with the system. He contended that this would remove the one serious objection to emploving electric power and people could go ahead and change their gasoline engines (or motors without hindrance. Aid. Blackwood asked the n.ayor if he had been approached with respect to the holding of a meeting of irrigation water users to make arrangements for the present year. Mayor Jones replied that the council had nothing to do with the matter. It was entirely in the hands of the water users to call the meeting. The meeting then adjourned until the following day. The council met again Tuesday morning, the only business being the final passing of By-law 107 to regulate the establishment of industries liable to have a depreciating effect upon surrounding property, and of By-law 108, to levy a rate for street watering. The money by-laws, 109 to 114, were brought to the stage when they could be submitted to the vote of the ratepayers. The meeting then adjourned until Monday next. "What Happened to Jones" " What happened to Jones " is no longer a secret in Kelowna, and those who attended the performance of the comedy on Saturday and Monday nights last thoroughly enjoyed the three hours which it took to divulge the secret. The play had been arranged for the benefit of the building fund of St. Michael's Church, and to Mr. H. J. S. Reynolds is due the credit for organizing the enterprize, which was a great success. js. The comedy itself is one of the funniest and best which could have been chosen, and it was presented in a highly creditable way. The caste was a good one from beginning to end, the central figure, Jones being admirably taken by Mr. Lionel Taylor, who has in his first appearance established a reputation as a humorist, which will, no doubt bring him into great demand on these occasions. Mr. W. B. Pease acquitted himself well as Ebeneezer Goodly, a character which calls for some fine acting. Mrs. Weddell made a capital Mrs. Goodly, with Miss Hudson and Miss Collet! as the two daughters Minerva and Marjorie. The parts of Cissy, Mrs. Goodly's ward, and Alvina, in love with the Bishop of Ballarat, were well sustanied by Miss Metcalfe and Miss Binger, while Helma, the Swedish servant, whose excellent costume especially called for loud applause, was taken by Mrs. Barneby. Mr. H. J. S. Reynolds did exceedingly well as Richard Heather- ly, who finds himself between the devil and the deep sea most of the time in the schemes of the resourceful Jones. Mr. A. Temple earned considerable applause as the Bishop of Ballarat. Mr. Favell, as Bigbee, the escaped lunatic, Mr. Aikens, as his keeper, and Mr. R. Stone.as Holder, the policeman, each contributed to an excellent entertainment. Mr. R. C. Reed was stage manager. The Kelowna Choral Society orchestra supplied the music under the conductorship of H. W. Whitehead. As a result of the play some $100 or so is to be handed over to the building fund. Premier McBride and party had booked passages to England on what was to have been the first return trip of the " Titanic." Chief Sutherland's promptness saved what might might have been a bad accident yesterday. A horse attached to a buggy with a lady in it was tied to a post in the street when a piece of paper blew up. The horse, startled, pulled back, the bridle coming off, and was just starting to run when Chief Sutherland ran up and grapped it round the neck. His wrestling powers stood him "in good stead and he was able to hold the beast until it could be secured again. Sports for May 24th The Racing and Athletic Club met last Friday to consider the advisability of holding the usual sports of May 24th. As this was also the annual general meeting, the financial statement for the past year was read showing receipts of $1,384.75, with expenses $ 1,614.60,leaving a deficit of $229.85. There were, however, some $45 of unpaid subscriptions. It was decided to borrow money from the bank to pay off all the club's obligations. The officers elected for the ensuing year were as follows :��� President��� F. S. Coates Ist Vice-Pres���S. T. Elliott 2nd Vice-Pres���R. Lambly Secretary���P. Brooke Treasurer���W. M. Parker Committee :��� R. A. Copeland, J. Pettigrew, W. R Barlee, J. N. Cameron, W. Crawford Dr. Richards, F. W. Fraser. It was also decided to ask Mr. Jas. Bowes to accept the office of hon. president. Mr. P. Brooke asked to he excused from the office of secretary as he fell unable to spare the time. The meeting, however, lefused to hear of this, and he was again unanimously elected. Arrangements were made to hold sports and races as usual on May 24lh, the committee to meet later to draft a programme The suggestion often made of bringing the o[her athletic organisations of the city into line with the club was again made and discussed at some length, and it was agreed that overtures be again made to the various societies with that end in view. a enmore Notes Mr. H. G. Hillard has bought the lot adjoining C. C. Prowse's place. Mr. C. E. Atkins and family of Fort William were amongst yesterday's arrivals. Mr. R. E. Hunt and family, lately of Montreal, moved out from town this week. The contract for a residence and other buildings for Mr. Geo. Brown and family, of Montreal, has been let to J. Middleton. Mr. J. A. Bigger has just completed a fine residence for Mr. J. C. A. Whitham and the family has moved in. Mr. John Clark, of Vancouver, was a visitor during the past week, and has purchased property. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Ritchie and daughter are new arrivals in the valley, having moved last week into temporary quarters. Mr. and Mrs. Balsillie arrived last Tuesday from Edinburgh, Scotland. Mr. Balsillie is to manage Mr. W. H. McDougal's place in Glenmore, and has already pitched his tent. Rutland News. From our own correspondent. Mrs. A. W. Dalgleish was taken seriously ill during the week and her condition at present is causing great anxiety. Messrs. Clever and Whiteway have disposed of their business this week to Mr. C. Crowcroft, lately from England. The transfer takes place on May Ist. Mr. White- way is compelled to give up indoor occupation owing to a weak heart. He has given up the attempt to try and become a mate for his partner in size. Some thoughtless or \indictive person removed the gate at Scotty Creek which controlled the supply of water running into the flume of the Central Okanagan Lands Co. on Tuesday night, with the result that the water overflowed at a point south of the syphon, and rushing down the coulee caused considerable damage to several orchards. The supports of the high flume were washed away, and, if the large volume of water had been suddenly released, the results would have been far more serious. An example should be made of such persons who thoughtlessly or otherwise jeopardise other people's property. Board of Trade Monthly Meeting The Board of Trade held its regular monthly meeting Tuesday night, President R. B. Kerr in the chair. A telegram was read from the government superintendent of telegraphs at Kamloops announcing a flat rate of 2 c. for night letters between Kelowna and Vernon. The Lake Shore Road committee reported upon the result of the Hon. Price Ellison's visit, which has already been announced in these columns. A vote of thanks was tendered to the committee for the interest they had taken in the matter. Messrs. A. L. Meugins, J. M. Croft, J. H. Ferguson, K, McLaren, and H. W. Biggin were accepted as new members. A resolution was passed on the suggestion of Mr. W. Haug, that the secretary ask the superintendent of the C. P. R. to see that the railway crossing on Waler street was fixed, as it was in a very bad condition. A suggestion was made by Mr. G. Rowcliffe that copies of the local papers should be distributed on the train between Vernon and Sicamous, as was done by other towns. Mr. Josselyn thought that Kelowna land sales and other general news should be regularly reported to the coast papers. Mayor Jones stated that he had been in receipt of a letter respecting the visit to the valley of a party ot Winnipeg business men, and it had been suggested that the Kelowna Board make arrangements to meet them at Vernon with automobiles. They were leaving Winnipeg on the 23rd and would be at Vernon by 8 a.m. on the 26th. In considering (he matter it was stated that as the parly would leave Kelowna by the boat the same afternoon there would be very little time to attempt much in the way of entertainment. Mr. R. G. White, of Victoria, laid before the Board a plan for a publicity campaign on the prairies, which he was prepared to carry out if the Board approved by means of lectures and lantern slides. The matter was referred to the publicity committee. Mr. G. C. Rose brought up the question of the city council's grant to the Board of Trade, and the matter was debated at some length. Mr. R. B. Kerr urged lhat the grant be much bigger this year. He instanced other towns the same size as Kelowna where from $1000 to $2000 was given for advertising purposes. Mayor Jones mentioned that it was an unwritten law with the council that one mill of the taxes should be given each year for grants; $700 had already been given to the hospital. Aid. Sutherland mentioned that the one mill would probably produce $1,700, which left $1,000 for the Board of Trade and other purposes. Mr. F. R. E. DeHart considered that the only fair plan was to levy a tax on all the people for advertising purposes. Outside of the grant now given there were hundreds of people who were deriving benefit from the advertising being done by private individuals, who never contributed one cent. Warming to his subject he said Kelowna people were the slowest on earth at advertising. We won prize after prize in the great exhibitions and the only notice taken of it was a few lines in the booklet. People should get busy and make known some of the attractions we had to offer. An important matter, he said, was the question of a map of the city. He thought it was high time Board got out a map of the city. People were always making enquiries about maps of the city. Aid. Millie mentioned that there was at present a motion before the council to revise the map of the city. It was pretty hard to keep it up to date at the rate the blocks were being subdivided. When the map was re-drawn it would be easy to get small ones from it. It was finally decided lo get prices on small maps. The discussion coming back to the question of a grant from the city, Mr. G. C. Rose suggested the Board put through a resolution asking the council to levy a special rate for advertising purposes. A resolution was framed on these line: and carried. Mr. Haug asked if it were not possible to induce the C. P. R. to reinstal its telephone. It was mentioned that the secretary had written the agent but had received no reply. Mr. S. 1. Elliott announced that he had been going into the question of a tourist hotel for Kelowna. A few of th-m had got together and had decided upon a site which they had purchased. He was also glad to say that after some effort they had practically got all the necessary capital subscribed, and would go ahead with the project as soon as possible. Mr. Pitcairn asked what was being done in respect to the daylight-saving scheme. Mr. Rose stated that the council had agreed lo instruct the power-house to commence whistling one hour earlier on May 1st, and the sawmill would probably do the same, so the chances were that the citizens would have to get up an hour earlier on May 1st. Mr. Elliott raised a protest against the action of the government in transferring the ferry contract from Mr. E. E. Hankin- son to Mr. J. Campbell. He considered that a great injustice had been done lo Mr. Hankinson, and recommended that a resolution be sent to the government against the change. In discussion it was considered advis.ible first to investigate the government's reasons for making the change and a committee was appointed for that purpose. Several 'attempts were made lo adjourn the meeting, hut as the hour was com. paratively early the members seemed reluctant to part and discussion drifted around in a desultory way (or some time. The president was taken to task by Mayor Jones for some sweeping remarks respecting the provincial government which the Inner considered savored too much of parly politics for the Board of Trade. Finally the meeting broke up���illegally, as the motion to adjourn was jokingly deli aled. Appalling Disaster to Atlantic Liner The Methodist church Bible class are having a social evening Tuesday next al the home of Mr. J. Curts, and extend a cordial invitation to ull who may care to attend. The continued Illness of Aid. H. W. Raymer is causing a good deal of anxiety to his many friends, and the strongest hopes are expressed on all sides that he may soon be around again. Ihe mock parliament of the Epworth League of the Methodist church is to meet again Monday next when the "Speech from the Throne " will be debated and the second edition of the manuscript magazine read. The Kelowna Gun Club is being revived and permission has been obtained from the council to use Boyce's field for trap shooting. ' Titantic" Sinks on Maiden Trip���Terrible Loss of Life The frightful disaster which happened to the White Star liner " Titantic " on her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York, has spread consternation and horror (brought the entire world. The great ship, the biggest ever built, wilh 2,200 souls aboard struck an ice berg on Sunday night last, off the Newfoundland banks, 400 miles from Cape Race,sinking inside of 5 hours. The reports to hand at present are of the mojt meagre description. It seems, however, to be fairly well established that only seven or eight hundred of all (he big boat's human freight were saved, these consisting chiefly of women and children. Wireless messages were flashed in all direction by the wireless operator of the doomed vessel, and these were picked up at various points, several liners racing at once to the scene of the disaster, only lo find, instead of the magnificent floating palace which had been making its way across the Atlantic, bits of floating wreckage. T he " Carpathia," it is reported, picked up (hose who were rescued from the life boats of the "Titantic" and is proceeding wilh them to New York. As the only reporls yet made known are brief and fragmentary messages by wireless, there is yet some hope that more of (he passengers may have been saved, but the greatest fears are entertained thai (here has been (errible loss of life. The " I i(antic" was built recently at a cost of some $10,000,000 and cargo is valued at millions more. Among the passengers were Col. and Mrs John Jacob Astor, Alfred G. Vanderbilt, Major Archibald Butt, military aid to President Tafl; F. D. Millet, the artist; Mr. and Mrs. Isadore Strauss, J. G. Widener of Philadelphia; President Hays of the Grand Trunk Railway, J. B. Bruce Ismay, managing director of the While Star line and W. T. Stead. The south-east corner of Ellis St. and Bernard Ave. passed this week into the hands of a local syndicate who are almost ready with a scheme to erect a fine tourist hotel there. The price paid was $30,000 Less than twelve months ago Mr. D. Lloyd-Jones bought this same properly for $12,000 I MR.

Advertising <at��S upon application, lo fish or not to fish, that is the question���whether it is better to brave the terrors and ambiguities of tlie law and hie with the rod and line to where the toothsome trout are spoiling for the bait, or to devote the leisure hours for a few days more to raking up last year's weeds from the garden. So far as the Okanagan is .concerned, the same doubt seems to arise every year as to the precise opening of the fishing season, ibough why, it is hard to say. The Act is explicit in its directions, even though it gives no reason for the difference in opening date between here and the coast. The act reads : " No one shall take trout of any kind from the 15th ol November in each year to the 25th of March following, both days inclusiue, except in the waters of the interior portion of th** province cast of the 120th meridian, where no one shall take trout of any kind from ihe 15th November in each year lo the 30th day of April following, both days inclusive. No trout of any kind under eight inches in length shall be taken from the Wat-1 ers of British Columbia, and, if taken, shall be immediately returned to the water alive and uninjured. No trout under three pounds in weight shall be bought, sold or exposed for sale in the province of British Columbia, nor shall any trout be bought, sold or exposed lor sale during the closed season provided therefor." As we aie east of the 120th meridian fishing commences here May Ist. The very strict enforcement of the statutory requirements this year has caused a pood deal of disappointment and rebellious feeling in the breasts of impatient anglers, all the more so because several beautiful piscatorial spec;- inens bad been yanked from the bosom of the lake oefore the police began to get wise to the proceedings. But from headquarters we understand have come orders that the practice must be stopp< d and so���nothing for it but to wait. There is a touch of humor, all tbe more delicious because unconscious, in ihe report which appears in an Old Country paper of a service held by the vicar of a parish on the banks of the Tweed, for the purpose of asking the divine blessing on the opening of the salmon fishing! The service, it is said, took place a few hours before midnight the proceedings commencing wilh the singing of "O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come." Fne vicar delivered an appropriate and impressive address. Let us hope that the fish stories he told were true. No fewer than six money by-laws are at present before the city council, calling for the borrowing of $97,000 for various purposes. By-law No. 109 is to raise $7,000 for the purpose of extending the Water and Light systems. This of course is something which will occur annually if these services are to keep pace with the growth of the rity, the principal expense being the extension of the water mains to districts as vet unserved. No. I 10 is to raise $10,000 for the purchase of a site for a new school building, and No. Ill lo raise $2 ,000 toward the erection of the same. Here again are expenditures from which there is no escape. As is generally known being installed under the Locei Improvement Act, and made r charge on the property benefited. No. I I 3 is not to borrow mor< money but to expend a surplus o $387.40 from the sum raised to build the implement shed for another purpose, namely the construction of an incinerator. No. 114 is to raise $20,000 to make permanent improvements to our two m'in street;-, Bernard Ave. and Pendozi Street. It is certainly high tune these two thoroughfares were pul into a condition more in accordance with the growing im- poitance of the town, and this can only be done by beginning at the beginning, thai is by properly grading, levelling and draining before pulling on a rock surface. But this costs money, and as Aid. Copeland has said, it would take a lifetime if the Board ol Works had to depend upon current revenue. A meeting to discuss these matters is called for Tuesday next, Ao.il 23id. Amusements The name of Miss Wrna Felton and the Allen Players is well known among the theatre patrons of Kelowna, and since their appeai- ance here last spring the have been repeated enquiries regarding their return. I he company now comprising twenty people, will appear at the Opera House for six the government has made a grant I nights only, commencing on Mon- of $35,000 for the purpose of building a school, conditional upon the city providing a site, and raising the balance of $25,000 towards the building. It needs no argument to maintain the contention that school accomodation must be provided. So there vou are. No. 112 is to borrow $35,000 lo make a start upon a sewerage system for the city. As the ratepayers have already voted money for the purchase of a sewerage farm il is safe to conclude that they are desirous of having a sewerage system. And who is not? The council have now gathered a large amount of information on the subject, and the time has come when the problem must be definitely taken up. It is proposed to put in the main trunk sewer3 and disposal works at the expense of the city, the extensions or tributary sewers av next, April 22nd. The bill for Monday night will be "The Third Degree," by Chas. Klein. 1 he bilan.ee of the repertoire will include "The Lottery Man," " Camille," " Divorcons," 1 he Transgressors," "Under Two Flags" and "Resurrection." The addition of the Royal Hungarian string quartette will please all lovers Or good music. They will render all thr music between acts. On Monday and Tuesday Dreamland presents a special reel entitle r! j" Tracv, the Bandit." This is not )a wild and woolly yarn, but the true story of America's greatest | Pandit. Of course the picture is more or less sensational, but nevertheless it is extremely interesting I and being true is naturally worth seeing.

Socalism for New Republic " I have finished the political revolution and will now commence the greatest social revolution in the world's history," said Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the ex-President of China, in an interview at Shanghai, according to a dispatch from that city to the London Daily Telegraph. " The abdication of the Manchus is only the means to greater development and the future policy of the republic will be in the direction of Socalism. " 1 am an ardent follower of Henry George, whose ideas are practicable on the virgin soil of China as compared with their impracticability in Europe or the United States, where money is controlled by capitalists." Dr. Sun says he has the full consent of the government to start his propaganda immediately, whereby the railroads, mines and similar industries will be controlled by the government. The single tax system, and, as far as possible, free trade will be adopted. Losses in the Coal Strike Figures of coal strike losses as given out have been revised. It was found that the loss in wages had been $70,000,000, half to the miners and half to other trades. The railways lost $14,000,000. The funds of the Federation of Miners have been almost exhausted. Seven million, five hundred thousand dollars were paid out in strike pay. Many district organizations are bankrupt. Men are beginning to say the result was not worth the cost, and it is predicted that it will be many a long day before there will be another national strike. Mr. S. A.

A number of newcomers are ooking up places here with a view to settlement. All are enjoying the fruits of the earth in season, i.e., mushrooms, asparagus and rhubarb. More young apple and cherry trees are being set out at " Enterprise " ranch. Mr. T. H. L Seeley is also doing more planting this season. Mr. and Mrs. Ramsay rode to Killeney on Sunday last. They have visited a number of places lately and speak with much enthusiasm of the Okanagan's beauties. All look forward to the road being continued to the rorth ; at present riding after dark is apt to prove dangerous. " What made you so late ? " " 1 met Smithsoff." " Well, that is no reason whj , ou should be an hour late getting home to supper." " 1 know, but I asked him how he was feeling, and he insisted on telling me about his stomach trouble." " Did you tell him to take Chamberlain's Tablets?" " Sure, that is what he needs.''
