Between nine and ten members of the fraternities, brilliant with sash and badge, began to congregate outside the Oddfellows' Hall and at 10 o'clock. Marshall Lee ranged the procession in orded, and headed by the City Band the parade wended its way up Second street to Mackenzie avenue, down the avenue to the railway crossing, then back to First street and along First street, Government road and Third street to Douglas street and Front street and back along the same- route to the hall. Tliere were 86 members of the various fraternities marching in the parade, including tho Knights of Pythias headed by tlieir commander Jas. Gill, the Machinists.t.he Foresters, headed by Chief Ranger Thos. Bain, the Trainmen, the rear being brought up by the Oddfellows of the Selkirk and Revelstoke lodges. On return to the hull the dedication service of the handsome new lodge room commenced. Speeches were made by the representatives of the various lodges present and by Aid. Crage for the corporation. The impressive ceremonies of the dedication of the lodge room according to the Oddfellows' ritual, were then performed,' J."A. Stone presiding iii the absence of the representative of the Grand Lodge. By the hour fixed to start the spoits the fair promise of the morning had proved fallacious and the monotonous drip of the'rain began again and lasted all the afternoon. It was in consequence impossible to pull off the entire programme, but the following events were curried out: Boys under , 10, hundred yards. E. Pettipieci: 1st.

This petition was accepted almost' without discussion as settling the question and the following motion was put and carried. Aid. Graham being the only dissent ient. Moved by Aid. McKechnie, seconded Aid. Brown, that whereas a petition has been ptes.inted protesting against the proposed method of building the proposed sidewalk that the committee on Public Works and Property be instructed to'procced at once to build the proposed sidewalk out of the moneys raised bv debenture for the purpose of public improvements. After the motion was (carried Aid. Graham remarked with .eome vehemence that now every sidewalk in town would have to be built out ol lhe general taxation, but no one accepted the challenge to debate and after authorizing the mayor to make a grant of $25 to defray the expense of hiring the city band on Labor Day and passing the monthly wage list, the council adjourned. FERGUSON, IS IT NOT! ARMSTRONG IS GOING AHEAD The Ranchers in the Okanagan Valley Are Prospering. Armstrong. B.C.. Aug. 31.���������Many have heard of a place called Armstrong, hut to more properly judge of the significance of tho place one. hns to visit here and see for themselves. To hegin with, it, is the centre of the Okanagan valley. The ranches here are a perfect garden, with plenty of fruit and and abundance of vegetables of all kinds. -The. farmers all seem to be blest with a liberal share of prosperity. All have fine turnouts and good buildings. We have a No. I saw mill and a first class flour mill ; a furniture -ind hardware store, two good general merchandise establishments, a jewelery store, a new drug store, a new barbel shop, with a first class tonsorial aitist at the chair ; a hlack- smi'th and wagon shop, a good saddlery store, with the good natured Chas, Adison in charge, who is turning out some very fine work ; a good restaurant and bakery, two' good 'meat markets, three churches, viz.: Presbyterian, Methodist and Church of England- We are. to have a brass band and a mandolin club, under the leadership of the druggist, * We have one first class hotel, under the management of the genial Hugh Keyes, who will and does everything to make his guests comfortable-and enjoy themselves while under his roof. AVe had a grand old game of foot ballon Saturday evening between the Armstrong juniors and the pitkups, wliich resulted in favor of the former the losers were to pay for a supper, which they did like little'men. Owing to the continued wet weather considerable damage has been done to tbe wheat crop, hut'the crops being so much heavier than last year the damage will not be noticed very much. If the weather clears io will take but a short time to take care of the wheat, owing to the fact that three large new steam threshing outfits have recently been added tii the list. The Kickapoo entertainment here was liberally attended. The new residence being built hy Mrs. Schubert is nearly finished. W. II. Ireland has die contract. Not a Village, Nor a Town, But' a City.

N. Brayton. general ngeut^for the Ferguson townsite. wns in town, yesterday. He reports a good demand, for lots in the coining metropolis, but. he has decided not to sell any to par-, ties wishing tn buy for speciilatiive, purposes. The railway will reach Ferguson about next July or August.. The first section of 17 miles will be. completed within 60 days, an extra five hundred men having been put on to rush the work through. Good, progress is being made with the sur-; veying of the second section of 13 miles, which will reach tho foot of the. lake. The road then strikes up the. north Shore of the lake to a point, about H miles from Ferguson where it. leaves the lake and makes its way into, the town. This mile and a half from , the lake to Ferguson will be built first, as soon as the foot of the lake ia reached, connection being made by, the steamer Rosa, now plying nn. Kootenay Lake, which will be hauled. over the railway and put on' Trout Lake. The C.P.R. have, acquired. Selkirk City at the foot of Trout Lake and their line runs along the south, shore"of the lake and on to Thomson's Landing with a branch into Ferguson. - striking off about IJ miles this side of Trout Lake City. The C. P. R. engi-. neers are working on locating this. branch now and are surveying on the Ferguson townsite at present. Col. .- Brayton is confident that the prospects - of Ferguson are bright. " It will be," . said he, "a 'city���������not, a village or n.^ town, but a city."

Conciliation and arbitration as means of settling disputes between capital and labor in Great Bi itiiin have proved a great success, and the growth of the boards may be reckoned as one of the most remarkable features of industrial life at the end of the 10th century. No fewer than 1,405 disputer were brought before various branches of these boards in 1807. the latest date, for whicli collected figures are available, and ot these 800 weie settled by llie.boatd without the necessity Of a conflict.

We believe in an equality "f opportunity that can only exist when only franchises or privileges are cut nil. Anything that all individuals may not do is a thing the government or municipality ought itself to do. With all privileges removed theie would then be an equality of opportunity. The ownership of land forever, the right to issue money, the power to demand intei est, the franchise to build a; railway, the license to do an "express" or telephone business, and the granting of n patent are all privileges a few may enjoy at the expense of the great body of toilers.

Above the Brunswick mines,' adjoining Mr. Blochberger's Kingston - group, in which Ross Thompson, K. K. Peiser and S. Thornton own an interest. J. Tweedie has struck a rich , ' free milling quartz vein with an.: _ average assay of S439 in gold values per ton. Prof. Blochhergec showed the Miner representative and his many : friends in the city a fine quartz speci- '. * men wilh large specks of Iree gold- visible to the naked eye. The vein, Prof." Blochberger was informed, is over 10 feet wide so far, the footwall . not heing found when he left. This - certainly ought to be good news for? everyone holding property in the Lardeau district. " - The Great. Northern, or Silver Cup., lead, on wliich are located the famous.. Beatrice and Mohawk and Fresno mines, the properties of the youthful . - pionerrs, Reainv and Downing, runs . through the Kingston group and adjoining Fish river properties... and makes them with t.he surface assays of over S50. properties of great = promise.

GSOWLERS Mr. Augustui; Hare hns known a great many distinguished men and women, and it is curious to see, in an interview wliicli a recent, contributor to the London Daily News recently had with the well known writer and artist, how some o������ the great men of the past used to growl. Carlyle, of course, was the most notorious; lennyson only a little better. The exquisite poem, Crossing the Bar grew out of Tennyson's growl. He had been very ill, and one day when ne was convalescent, was sitting growling. Suddenly his nurse said to him: "You ought to.be ashamed of yourself, Mr'.T'ennyson. You ought to lie expressing your gratitude for yonr recovery from a bud illness by giving us something, by giving it to Uie world." Tennyson, without replying, went out and straightway wrote Crossing the Bar, and brought it to the nurse as a peace offering. Carlyle's savage side was shown in something Tennyson told air. Have. Browning one day left a copy of his new pcems at Carlyle's house and Carlyle said to Tennyson: >. nat did that fellow mean by leaving that cavt load of stones at my door.-' Carlyle and Tennyson weve nice enough if one got round to the other side of them, but why should they have taken such pains to be unpleasant? Both were lacking in tact, and after all, tact is the great thing to carry one through life. Some one asked Archtishop Langley of England once what tact was. "..'ell," snid the archbishop, "it is difficult to spy what it is. Here, however, is an instance of what it is not: Only this morning a clergyman of -iiy diocese wrote to me, 'In consideration of your graces many infirmities and failing powers." That was not tactful." Gambler Yvcn all the Money With the Odds Against Him '���������Times ain't what they used to be in this town," mused the old tini-r, as he shoved bis hands far down into liis trousers pockets and felt about fov the 'case" coin which he knew was there, says me Memphis Scimitar. "In them days, 'long about 'GO, 'ii? and 'GS, money was plentiful anil sportin' people rolled 'em high. Jefferson street from No. 9 clean down to Third street was gambling houses and every one of them was straight exeept two. And say, that puts me i'i mind ot a Iucny play I had one um ..

Britain that not long ago a writer seriously contemplated the possibility that England would some day- consist of a number of immense cuies suvrounded ,->- districts of market gardens, while the rest of the island would be as wild and uncultivated as the wastes of Central Africa. Without accepting the prediction quite literally, it is still nevertheless true that tlie movement in question is going on in this country and the United States as it is in England. The young men of today ave most cf them reluctant to adopt any pursuit that involves manual labor. Their impulse is to push into the already overcrowded sedentary employments in the cities. Thousands of them do not realize their anticipations, nnd live meagre, discontented, unpromising lives. It is a mistaken choice. The hope is that the multitude of these failures will ultimately living aobut the readjurtment.of the popular conception of country and city business life. Meanwhile education must be ex- a__.".pnded--_an(L_snecialized... .It. is -im-. perative that educational methods should adjust themselves to the needs of the times. Already there is a movement to teach more agriculture in country schools. If the movement is successful, a large number of the boy.-* of the next generation will be taught that intelligent farming is one of the best reliable puvsuits to ���������~~*hic_ thought and enterprise and industry ran be given. The tendency of education as we have it in the Canadiau West is .to produce too many lawyers, doctors, clerks school teachers. Clagary Herald. Among the passengers who arrived by tlie north train on yesterday evening were two Canadian young ladies, Miss Anna Marsh and Miss Lily Veitch, who have beeu engaged as missionavics for four and two yoais respectively, at St. Peter's mission, on the Great Slave lake, in the Mackonv.'.' river country, under Bishop Reeve, of the Church of England Missionaiy society. The Rev. Thomas J. Marsh, brother of Miss Marsh, who spent severa. years in that country, is head of th" Indian school and is doing good work there. These ladies left tlieir homo i*- Lhe far north on the 2!)tli day ,of.Juno, starting across the lake in'a small steamer which the Bishop purchased fvom a parly of Detroit miner*, to Fovt Smith.

But when 1 first set foot���������it was a tenderfoot, let me say���������in Hugo, Colo., 1 at once conceived a great respect fov a man named Higgins. Higgins was an undertaker. He was tho only undertaker within a hundred miles, and he was getting rich. Neve a, day passed but my friend Higgins had a funeral on hand. He was tne most cheerful undertaker, perhaps, that ever flourished. "I remember well tho day that I bid Higgins good-by. He was as light spirited as a grasshopper, and a thousand times expressed his regret that 1 was going into the interior until I felt clammy lest he might bo gri .veil nt the thought that some else might hnvo the profitable job of burying me. "When I noxt saw Biggins it was after a two years' experience of chas- i" wild steers. I was glad to sec him he was such a jolly old undertaker. Hello, Higgins!' I said cheerfully, when I walked into his establishment. "How aro you, old man9' "Hicgins shook his head mournfully, .mil then I stopped short in amazement, for T saw that he was nailing down boxes and packing up bis slock. You aren't going to move, aro you?' T asked in surprise, but ho only jammed a role of crape into a dry goods box and went on with his work. " See hove Higgins." I cried 'what's thn trouble?

Now how do you think this pesky town has treated its foremost citizen?' "'Toll me, Higgins. You hnve my sympathy.' " 'Well. I was making a decent livin'. I let out contracts fov the only brick building in tlio town.' " 'Yes.' " 'I was going to call it tho Higgins block. 1 was s'oing to let tlie volunteer fire department havo rooms in my block for nothin'. I proposed to have a temnerance union in the town. I hoped to have a free library. You know I'm a progressive citizen, don't you ?' " 'You aro, Higgins.' " 'Well, what do you think this town has done to me ' " 'Surely nothing bad, Higgins?' "'Nothing bad!' he screamed. 'Do vou know what they've done They've lynched Bill Smith, and if ever thevc was a cowardly blow aimed at a foremost citizen, it was that.' " 'But you can bury him, Higgins?' "'Bury him!' he screamed. 'Bury Bill Smith! Why. man. Bill Smith was makin' a fortune for me. He killed liis man as regular as thc sun went down; and I buried every one of 'om. ' He was worth $25 a day to mo, lie was. So T'm goin' to leave 'om. This town don't offer no inducements to an honest man like me. Think what I've done for 'em. 1 was goin' to erect a monument to our departed brothers. And now thoro won't be a doath in this town once a month. Poor Bill!' and Higgins seized a winding sheet and tried to stifle his sobs." THE WORLD TODAY IS BETTER THAN IT EVER WAS BEFORE By Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Oh, tho earth is full of sinning And of trouble and of woe, But the devil makes an inning Every time you say it's so; And the way to set him scowling, And to put him back a pace, Is to stop this stupid growling, And to look things in the face. If you glance at history's pages, In all lands and eras known, You will find the vanished ages Far more wicked than our own, As you scan eacli word and letter, You will realize it more, That the world today is better Than it ever was before. Tliere is much that needs amending In thc present time, no doubt, Thoro is right, that needs defending, Thoro is wrong needs crushing out; And wo hoar tho groans and curses Of the poor who starve and die, While the men with swollen purses In the place of hearts, go by. But in spite of all the (rouble That obscures flic sun today. Just vememlior it was double" In the ages passed away.. And these wrongs shall all lie righted. Good shall dominate the land. Fov the davkiioss now is lighted Hy the torch in Science's hand. I Forth from little motes in chaos We have conic to what wo are. And no evil force can stay us, Wc shall mount from star to star; Wo shall break away each fetter That has bound us heretofore. And tho world today is better Than it ever was before.

There are inining men tmd iiiii'ing men. There nre mini's and uiir.es. There, are prospects ��������� whicli do not deceive, and thero are wildcats whicli disgusi men with mines and mining.

Tbey breed doubt ninl distrust of '��������� really good lodes for the suiiie coiiiident, iippniuntly bonesi, businesslike representations are employed to dispose of a wildcat that nro used to sell the'former.' Bul, happily, the day of the wildcat bus long since passed; nwny in old mining centres. Every tub must -stand upon its own bottom, and aboul, every inining man in established camps knowsthe bottom of every prospect hole nnd mining shaft in thu district. The mining fakir has long ago lost his appetite for l.hein, and gives thoni a wide berth. He has been and is st,''l limiting for newer and greener pasture.". Butte hns boon singularly free, from mining fakirs, nol perhaps because nil milling brokers nnd dealers in inining stocks nre sprouting angelic wimis, hut .because the Butte inining field is comparatively barren of wildcats. The man who strikes favorable looking rock will stay by it, fearing lie may lose a bonanza in its sale. He will take the. chiiiices and level in anticipations of wealth ns long ns the prospect lasts, not being disheartened and'ready to throw up the next location because the" previous' one failed him. The true niiner stays by his pick, pan und shovel nil the time'. He doesn't know what tlie words " give up " mean. Tin tie hns men who an.- minors from tliiVgiound up, it has no wildcats to speculate upon. Tint wildcat propositions cun find their way in Bulle us well ns tliey <:nn among the most credulous country Jakes in the middle .states, foi- the Held of the inining fakir is boundless, though the field of -'suckers" may bo limited.
