No.^2" J(/7^Y;^| Fire Department Vancouver is justly proud of her fire department, at least as far as outward apearance is concerned, but why should we not be? We have lavished enormous sums upon its equipment, many are now beginning to think that possibly I it would have beeu better had we gone a little |( more carefully. For instance, last year we purchased the chief a new auto, and again this year we are buying |- another at $4,300. That's "going some," as the boys say. It is true the auto purchased last year II covered a lot of ground, there was never a lacrosse match at New Westminster but, Vancouver was represented by the chief> auto and occupant. Tlien the chief found it necessary to make fre- - ivquent trips to Bellingham, Boundary Bay and other interesting points. No doubt a great deal of valuable. inl'iu-nuiLiitii was giitherec1 in this wpv, 1 calculated to s:iv<> the eity thousands uL dollars, etc., but it i<; nn np"n qu^stion% if the citi/ens would approve of $4,U0O autob i'ur such trips dB these as long as the G. X. Hy. is.rmmkig. , Alderman Stevens raised an objection to the chief getting a touring car and contended that the city should purchase a two-seated car specially \ equipped for a fire chief, said car to be used for t going to fires. The sugestion was, however, so , i monstrous that it threw Aid. Enright in a verit- | ahle paroxysm of anger and he roundly denounced )his fellow alderman for his presumption in questioning the purchase or anything else connected I with the fire department. His Worship Mayor ITaylor also felt himself duty bound to register his [objection to any suggested interference, with his Ipet official or his department. 1 But "a closer examination of this department of , lthe civic administration will, we feel sure, reveal Tponditions anything but satisfactory to the public, no matter how pleasant they may be to the chairman of the Fire and Police Committee and lthe mayor. , A couple of weeks ago tenders were called for an aerial truck and a chemical auto truck. Tenders were received from only three or four firms t>ut of fourteen companies who could have tendered. Seagraves & Co. put in a tender for $24,- fiOO for the two, Stancliffe & Co. put in two separate tenders for about $6,000 less than the Sea- brave's tender. The fire department authorities, lowever, got the Seagraves Company to separate their tender after ttMT-Whtr tenders had Iieen ipenecL then the Seagraves tender was recommended to the council, which brought out the Iposition of Aldermen Stevens and McMasters, Ind on their motion was referred back to the coro- oittee. From the answers of the chairman ot he Fire and Police Committee to questions by lid. Stevens it was learned that the $17,000 aerial hick now owned hy the city, and which was fcrchased from;the Seagraves people, was a.faille "It was the first they had. constructed, [id \ld. Enright. In other words the city paid Lut $17,000 for the Seagraves people to experi- Lnt with. Another peculiar point is that both Fe chief and the chairman of the Fire and Police bmmittee stated that the auto expert, King, had {commended the Seagraves apparatus. As a Imarkable co-incident we would point out that le Seagraves Company gave the civic auto expert Sfre trip down East last month and an all-round lod time Why would he not recommend their pparatus, even if it were $6,000 moreit (then the_chief stated_thaLhe :������had drawn.the deifications for the aerial truck and that the [(graves tender im the only one exactlyY������ccordr Erto specifications;" WeTdo not doubt that, for le specifications, no doubt, were drawn to wit V apparatus made by these people. The chief ifo also that the Seagraves had a^few extra.lad- Irs whichYhe explained, accounted for WW Terence. Our firm belief is that all this is tihy." and would stand some careful lnvestiga- ������������ which, by the way, it is likely to get before 'inSther point raised by the chief was that the ���������wrraves people would agre to keep "parts in Ek in Vancouver. What do we find is the true Editions! This same point was inserted in their ���������mer contract, but in spite of it the city brought ier $1,000 worth of repair parts from Columbus, fid during six months from last August to Ibniary of this year and paid 30 per cent, duty I the same and express charges in place of light. This effectually disposes of that argu- Hie citv should be generous towards its fire iting equipment, but we draw the line at giv- t $17 000 to Seagraves or any other companv [experiment with-also at giving $6,000 extra la companv because an expert says so, and to Kplying touring cars, for fire chiefs. This may | be popular, but it is business. NEW ENGINEER. Winnipeg Vice Commission Report The report of Judge Robson, of Winnipeg, on the "Social Vice Question" clearly demonstrates one or two things. First, that the usually recognized "segregated district" is contrary to law and a menace to public good. Second, that the police of Winnipeg instituted such a district in direct contravention of the criminal code. The report is exhaustive and will do much to dispel the illusion that "segregation is the only solution." We hear so much along this line that we are inclined to give more credit to its efficiency than is merited. The report states, "That such a state of things should have existed and so continued is a reproach to any civilized community." And further, "Neither the Police Commission nor the Chief of Police had authority to permit such "a state of affairs. Their duty was to see to an unremitting enforcement of the criminal law in all parts of the city." And again. "The law does not authorize anything but entire suppression of the offense." - Judge Robson further states. "That illicit liquor dealing has been general and continuous in these houses, and that the result of the above state of affairs has been the disturbance of peace and good order in the locality, a menace to morals, and a great depreciation in value of property of the neighboring residents." This report clearly puts it up to the authorities that the responsibility is with them. The same will apply to Vancouver. A "801" Real Grievance WINNIPEG STREET RAILWAY. Winnipeg has been conducting a protracted "fight" with the street railway company operating within the city. The contest has been waging for a number of years, but it would appear that the climax has been reached. Recently the company offered to sell out to the city for a stated figure' and negotiations are now on for the closing of the deal. In case, however, it is not concluded the city is prepared to enter into competition with the company, as the city's new power plant will be completed in July next,- when the city will" be in.a position to utilize its own power. ' .The grounda.upon'Which Winnipeg has.Jiet aside1 the railway charter is "non-compliance with* the terms', of agreement," "insufficiency of car service," "location of gas works," etc., etc. Winnipeg seems to have discovered the way to whip a belligerent company into line and succeeded in doing so. FIREMEN'S UNION. The firemen of the Vancouver force have formed a union, .with the result that many citizens are^ considerably alarmed, fearing that should a great conflagration break out-that the men might choose that as a suitable time to go on strike. The fire underwriters are particularly opposed to the move, claiming that it is prejudicial to their business. In the first place, let us say that it is a,criminal offense for a fireman to refuse duty except on thirty days' notice, which, of course, protects that feature. Again, we are informed that a fireman cannot go on strike. If this be-the facts of the case-then there-is little-to fear from-the union��������� We are, quite in accord with the sentiment that the firemen should riot risk the lives of the citizens or their property to settle an economic difference whicii inight occur. We are inforriied, on the other hand, that the chief reason for the formation of the union is because of the actions of the chief in promoting to the position of lieutenants nien who haye only been in the employ of the city for six months over, the heads of men who have been on theiorce for fromjsix to,ten. years. 7 . ;:\ If this is the case it clearly proves the incompetence of the chief and would warrant .an investigation, arid we are informed that it was with this idea in view that the men formed a union.They had appealed in vain to the chief, and finding it useless, they decided to unite their forces and appeal to the Council. The chief may contend that the men were not capable of filling the position. This will hardly hold water, however, because there are a dozen or more men of upwards of five years' service who have.yheen passed over, and if they are incompetent, why ar* they on the force? If they are -capable, why were new men promoted ahead of them? As for.the union, the Council should insist on a definite agreement "that the men submit all disputes to. a board pf arbitration, and that a strike sh������ll not be considered, nor affiliation with any other body." With this protection the union would'not be objectionable. Vancouver's new City Engineer has arrived and ten up his duties. Mr. Fellows is a man who lears to be possessed of the right sort of stuff mdertake Vancouver's great problems. He will mire to exercise,ar great ileal of patience and Severance for the firat year, but fre feel eertain E if he does this he has the rare opportunity ot Iring a name for himself. > ���������... . .. fee citizens will have a large part to play in l success, for their attitude cmust necessarily ely influence his work. We bespeak for the engineer the support and co-operation of the R������ns at large. Give him a chance. Rome was [built in a day, nor a year. It takes time to do (work demanding attention here at present and chance should be given. TAFT'S CHINESE WALL. It is. real comical to read the expression of Cousin Will Taft that the "Imperialists are trying to build a Chinese wall along the- forty-ninth parallel.'' One would think that our cousins to the south had had some part in developing the country lying north of said parallel instead of discouraging and despising in every conceivable way the efforts of the Canadians. it is all very fine for the advocates of reciprocity to talk of tariff walls, etc., but, after all, the prime question of Canada is, "Whence came our prosperity and how can we preserve it?" It did not come frorii any help we received, from Uncle Sam j that is certain, y 'Our attention has been very forcibly drawn to an incident which occurred in D. L. 301 last Saturday night and which, if it be as reported, is a subject for investigation. The following are the facts as we have them first hand from a very reputable resident: <About eleven p. m. Saturday a man named McQuiston alighted from a,car at the corner of Twenty-first avenue and Main street, and proceeded towards his home, when about 40 feet east of Main street he was suddenly set upon by th re ruffians and dragged into a dark corner, where they began to relieve him of his money and his clothes. He called for help, whereupon he v^as beaten about the head unmercifully. His cries attracted the atention of some persons on a passing car;* also of the storekeeper, and his assailants fled. The injured man staggered into Mr. Atwood's store on the corner of Main and rjventy-first streets-and asked Atwood to phone for police, which he did, caling up the Vancouver station, phone No. 6. ��������� The officer who answered ��������� the phone hesitated about sending a man out. Mr. Atwood explained that the man seemed severely injured and required medical assistance at once. The reply was that it was out of the feity's jurisdiction, but after further explanation they promised to send a man out, which was never done. In .the meantime McQuiston, the injured man, fainted, and Mr.. Atwood laid him out on the floor and"gave his best assistance. At this point the car, which had been going out at the time the incident occurred, returned, and the crew called in at the store to enquire regarding it and stated that they had seen two men run from^the bush into a house near the scene, also another man who was apparently on watch, ''thus corroborating the story of the injured man. Mr. Atwood, observing the serious condition , of McQuiston, called for Dr. Casselman, who came at once, and upon examining the injured man ordered him removed to the hospital. He phoned for the ambulance at the police station, but was Jtold it was out of their territory and suggested :that he fin4 eome other means > of conveyance. ' The doctor replied, that the man needed instant attention and no time should be lost. At this point a bystander reminded the doctor that D. Iy 30������ was part of the city and therefore had a right -rta#jjpfc% ambulance 'call, ahdrthen fhe'poliee. con? sented to send the ambulance, which, in due course arrived. The driver asked Mr. Atwood a few minor questions and that was all that was done that night. The victim was removed to the hospital, where he will probably remain for a week or two. His coat, shoes and $40.00 in cash are missing. Some papers and his hat were picked up and given to the driver of the ambulance. The next day two detectives called on a couple of. residents who were asleep when the incident occurred and knew nothing of it, but apparently - the matter was dropped at that point. It is claimed that had the authorities acted promptly there would have been some chance of apprehending the footpads, but what is troubling the residents of 301 is "where are they at" as far as police protection is concerned. ' Not long since a storekeeper was held up on Westminster road and it is clear that some definite action is necessary. It is sheer, madness to simply refuse help on a technicality. What is ��������� required is-that-the-Police Commissioners of the��������� two districts (Vancouver and South Vancouver) :'-:��������� get together and decide on some mutual plan ;"���������' whereby reasonable..protection will be given. 'This case should stir up some;investigation wf to who is responsible and how"-to prevent a recurrence of such a deplorable incident. LABOR TROUBMB. A strike usually results in a distinct loss to the workriian, the emplp3rer and the public. In fact. 7J a strike or a.lockout7is" an.-economic evil and should be avoided if. possible. There are many causes which lead up to the 8trike~-the avarice and injustice of the employer; the general desire on the part of the men for higher wages and better surroundings, but unfortunately the most fruitful cause is the unscnlplous agitator. The average workman is cautious and fair in his attitude, he is usualy desirous of making an amicable settlement of his-differences, that is, when he is left to his own judgment, but when the professional agitator gets into a position of control there is endless trouble. He is invariably7a,.glib speaker and easily silences the more conservative members and succeeds in stirring up strife for. the sake of trouble. The - regret-able feature is that he rarely has anything at stake, as his salary, is; going on all the time, both in peace and war, and is usually a fat one. It would be well for they interests of unionism if the judgment of the rank and file could find better expression than is at present the case. The referendum is the hope of the masses in politics and should be perfected in ���������;��������� the labor union. 7 At present there is a spirit of unrest throughout America and Canada and many strikes are on. The-tendency of modern public sentiment, if allowed to go its own course, is towards labor, but owing to many questionable actions on the part of men. who claim to be union men, but who in reality are anarchists, the progress of this.sentiment has been checked and these same extremists are playing directly into the hands of th e unscruplous corporations. Frank public discussion of the various economic questions will do more to advance the cause of . labor than any quantity of secret and subtle negotiations. Grandview / > The remarkable development of the Grandview district is one of th e outstanding features in the J phenomenal growth of the city. Only a few years ago this district was a wiidcrnes of. huge stumps , with the single track interurban line traversing it; to-day it is a thickly populated city district, and where the single track car line ran is now one of the busiest retail business streets in the _ city, with numerous fine business blocks. This change is due to the central location of this section in its relatiou to Greater Vancouver. Park > Drive is destined to be one of Vancouver's great business thoroughfares supported by- a densely settled residential and industrial district. The business men of Grandview deserve great credit for the substantial way in which they have built up the district. It shows the faith they had in their enterprise and this has been fully justi- ' fied. The various firms established along Park "* Drive carry as complete stocks of goods as could , be found in any section of the city, and at prices -which will compare most favorably with any down-town houses. One thing is certain, that if the residents of this district will support the local houses along Park Drive and adjacent thereto, this section will have a still more rapid' development. We do not wish to be sectional, but in order to ensure a uniform expansion it is necessary to support the business houses which are contiguous to our homes; that is, all things being equal as regards prices, etc., and this, we contend, after careful investigation, is the case. We should not encourage the congestion of business in the centre of the city, but oh the other hand should encourage and patronize local distributing places of business. ��������� Some of our worthy, citizens who simply through habit, take a car to the old business centre and do "their shopping, are unaware of how' much trouble and expense they would" spare themselves by merely .investigating some 4>f the-fine, re- \ tail establishments in Grandview. ;lt is certainly worthy of a trial and we are convinced would be a revelation to;TOariy- who have-ithel'!down - tow* habit." A c <*��������� u m TBE TEN COMHANDWENTS. We read that*the Very Rev. Wm. Mordaunf Furneaux is to undertake the revision of the Ten Commandments. It seems that the "Tenth" does not suit him and some of his scholarly friends. For the benefit of some readers who may have b< come rusty on the commandments we will quote No. 10: "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass. nor-anything that it thy neighbor's." * His very Rev. Htghnes proposes to simplify this by substituting: "Thou shalt not covet." Now according to modern scholastic tastes the latter may (!) be the better, but of thia we are sure, it has not that strong, definite imperativeness about it which characterizes the former. ���������Thisygentleman^ also proposes" to "remoder the- other commandments, especially the second (regarding idolatry) and the fourth J (re the Sabbath day)Y Y Our; firm conviction is''that the average modem theologian is a humbug. He simply seeks to tamper with the Scriptures to satisfy his own vanity, believing that the true insignia of the scholar is to be able to suggest some form other than that contained in the Bible. The rank and file of the laity are concerned in the truths contained in the Scriptures and are quite satisfied that the language of the authorized version is quite the most perfect literary work in existence and cannot be improved by introducing modern "short cuts." There is a grave danger that the tendency of the economic world for business short cuts and abbreviation (in itself good) wil obtrude itelf into the world of art. literature and religion, and that this age will be noted in history as the age which destroyed, rather than produced, works of art, literature and religion. Just as we go to press, we are informed of the passing away of Dr. Robson. one oj the oldest missionaries of British Columbia. The funeral will take place on Tuesday, May 9, at 2:30 p. m. from Mount Pleasant Methodist Church. The remains will lie in the church from 10:30 a. m. to 2:30 p. m. on Tuesday. \ rfij '- - ' (r.l ,JJ4 y ^"1 M s' * y 1.

(Hope News) .With the' rapid advancement of Hope and/ with its unprecedented, speedy increase of population, it will become not only advisable, but actually necessary to incorporate as a city and to have a manicipal government of our own. The business men all realize this, and there are few, if any, of the residents and property owners who are not thoroughly in harmony with a movement in that direction. There are many and. weighty reasons advanced by those who discuss the question of incorporation, the principal- one being that only by taking such a step the many Improvements we need can be secured, within a reasonable period. The,can be no doubt that we need a sewer system and watermains. Our streets, both in. the city proper and the roads that lead- In various .directions out of here, are sadly in need of repair. We are certainly away behind the times in having no telephone connection with each, other and with neighboring towns. There are no idewalks and no electric or gas lights; in fact, we lack nearly .every public convenience we ought to have.. , And how are we going to get these modern -Improvements . unless we install them ourselves? The powers that rule in Victoria have time and over as. sured us that they are, greatly interested in the welfare of Hope, and per- |haps they are, that, but whenever they are petitioned to do any , particular thing that needs doing badly they procrastinate at first arid afterwards they forget it altogether. This is a large province and many communities are .clamoring for governmental aid, so, of course, some of them, have to be sidetracked, and It has been our fate to be among,the latter number. When we have, a municipal government we can do much of our own improving, especially now.tlnce we halve a court who Is not slow in levying lines' on offenders brought before him. These fines now go Into the provincial treasury In Victoria. Why not keep them in Hope and use them to good purposes? Oo to Merritt, which is the latest city incorporated; in our near vicinity, and you will find that everybody there is pleased with the result ji and tbat incorporation has benefited jj������ them largely. However, these things are not ac-J^ compllshed by inactivity. We have tc go to work if we expect to succeed. Let the progressive people get >��������� together and start the movement for a bright City of Hope and let them stay with it until success crowns their efforts. , '" It will take some little time and some energetic work until ultimate results bring the men who take charge of tbe campaign their reward, but will not only have bettered their conditions but wiiralso have earned the-thanks of their fellow citizens. There are plenty of live men in this town, who are well qualified to take the lead in this matter; all they have, to do is to get together, but when each of them waits for the other individual to take the initiative nothing can possibly be accomplished. the deputy public' prosecutor meant. At 11 o'clock that "evening, 3. whole troop ot soldiers rushed into my cell, with Detective Dovas at their head, and began to beat me mercilessly, belaboring me with their fists, kickiDg me with their heavy, boots and dealing me blows' with the buft end ot their rifles. Blood flowed from deep wounds on rny hands, my legs and my whole body 1 was then seized and dragged to the top of the building, where the inquisition chamber was situated at that time. To the Inquisition. "With a blow, dealt with the butt end of his ribe, one of the soldiers pitched me into the room in which a table covered with red cloth stood in the middle. On this table an imperial eagle was placed by way of decoration, and around it were sitting the inquisition tribunal, consisting of Chief of Detectives Piatnizki, Chief Warder Sobetski,:; Deputy Warder Michejeff, Detective Dovas, the civil official, Alexandrpff, and an officer whose name t have forgotten. ' In front of the table was a raised platform surrounded by a high/railing. On each side of this platform' atoOd two executioners with whip's, constructed of thick ropes filled with lead at their extremities. ' ������������������-..��������� '.'Sobetski turned to me and said: 'Young man, here arc four walls, God and myself. What I want to do, I can dot If I choose td doBo.l shall'beat you till you are dead, or I shall make a cripple of you.. Nothing can happen to me for doing this, so that I advise you to confess.' "Dovas thereupon mentioned a number ot murders, and declared that I had committed them, whereupon, at a sign from him, the two executioners bounded upon me. Now began an unequal but desperate, struggle. All the members of the tribunal' rose from their seats and participated in the torture. Sobetski sprang upon me, placing, his knee upon my throat, and began to throttle me. Michejeff kicked me on the head. Dovas held my legs, another held my hands, and the remainder beat me. Cold Water Bath. -! 7 "The pain of the blows was excruciating,, and owing to the pain and loss of-blood I became unconscious, subsequently recovered to find myself drenched in cold water,, and7 surrounded with a pool of my own blood, Immediately after my recovery, my hands were bonnd behind me and placed in an iron instrumeht, de- (Continued on page 4) mm*: I FOR Duality, Quantity, Civility, Rapidity TRY US. ��������� ���������..'->> Cochrane & Elliott* Grocers Phone 8792 615-617 15th Avenue & Westminster Road We Are Doers, Not Talkers ^ ,\: > t ��������� A- I The House WAL������j PAPER ��������� mm A.

"First of all, I was brought to the police headquarters at Riga, where I was subjected to a rigid search. During my examinations I refused to make any statement except that I protested against my arrest and demanded to be tried in public. Deputy Prosecutor Buslo and Colonel Von Anronious then came together to my cell and asked me if I was willing to confess to my 'crime.' I refused. "Buslo, leaving my cell, turned to Chief Y of the Detectives Piatnizki, with the words: 'Now/you ask him in your own way,' while he shouted to me: Tomorrow you will tell a different tale.'

Horrors of Russian Prison (Continued from page 3) scribed with a kind of grim humor as the bracelets. "Alexandroff then beat, me on the back of the head, on the neck and on the back with a rubber knot filled with lead at the end. It seemed to me that my head was splitting, that my eyes were starting out of their sockets, and I foamed at the lips. In my ears 1 heard indescribable noises, before my eyeB 1 saw fiery circles. I became dizzy and again lost consciousness. - "Once more I was brought round by buckets of cold water, and again a demand was formulated that I should make a frank confession of my sins. Again I refused, saying that I would rather die than admit the perpetration of a crime of which I knew nothing whatever. Bloodthirsty Pack. "This whole pack of bloodthirsty houndp then-fell upon me again with bestial rage apd began to repeat the process of torture, one Of them pulling out my hair with a pair ot pincers. Another burned my flesh with the glowing end of his cigar; others used their cigarettes for the same purpose. y face was swollen and I could only see out of one eye. At that moment 1 had one burning desire, and that was to die before I suffered any more. My martyrdom seemed to be endless. Finally I began to shriek, much to the pleasure jof my torturers. They continued their work of cruelty until the break of day disturbed them and caused them to bring operations to a temporary termination. . Then they made a report and conveyed me back to my cell. "That was the beginning of my martyrdom in prison, but it waa a' merely typical example of what I repeatedly suffered during my period of incarceration, extending over two years. I am in a position to state that many other.political prisoners.at Riga' were treated in the same way without ever'"undergoing .any public trial, and in many cases without there being a shadow of proof that they had committed- any offence whatever against the laws of the land."

It was understood that their representative, Mr. Alex Lucas, had already assisted in having a deputy of the. public works engineer Instructed to visit Ashcroft and take levels in regard to sewers. A committee consisting of Dr. Sanson, Messrs. Murphy, Haddock, Ward, McGillivray and Richards were nominated to draft a petitoin to the government asking that steps be taken immediately to adopt some system of sewerage, and it was. thought that with the assistance of the government the town could construct a system which would cope with its. present requirements. Dr. dieorge Sanson emphasised at length the risk the town is now taking under its present conditions of a typhoid epidemic and all present were convinced that urgent steps should be taken.

Plan under Consideration to Make Montreal Island a Mile Longer by Filling in Waterfront���������Would add Milliom Dollars worth of Land and Give More Space for Docking Ships���������Contraband Discovered at St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary��������� City Pays* Large May Day Bill��������� Explosive Socks Civilization's Latest Danger���������Fortune Made from Puzzles. . (From our own Correspondent). . ' MONTREAL, May 3rd, 1910.���������With the problem of accommodating a population of one million five years hence, staring her in the face, Montreal is planning to rob Father Neptune of nearly a square mile of territory in an effort to provide additional, room. Os iri the case of many similar cities the plan in question simply proposes reclamation. In tWa case the reclamation will be from the river involving an amount of land which will be worth something like a million dollars. The idea orginated with an engineer who has acted in a consulting capacity, in the erection ot some of the largest buildings in tbe city, and has made a specialty' of foundation and caisson work. 'His idea, in brief, is to lengthen the Island of Montreal by the erection of sea walls, behind which the space could be filled in by pumping, sand from the channel. Chimerical as the scheme may sound at first hearing htere appears to be no reason why1 It should not. be carried out, since .the value of .(he made land will far exceed the cost of its creation. Of course until borings-, and surveys have been made it is impossible to more than roughly estimate the cost of an undertaking, but it in believed that it would; not only pay for itself but would leave a handsome profit besides. PAYS LARGE INTEREST BILL. Cheques totalling $918,897.51 are being sent out from the City Hall as a cheerful .May Day present from the city to its various creditors. The whole sum comprises Montreal's half yearly payment of Interest on the various civic loans, Including interest on the loans of the several .municipalities which were last year annexed to the city. Nearly two millions of dollars are expended each year in this way.

Don't forget the Mock Trial given by the young people at Cedar Cottage Presbyterian Church, May 30. | The Scotch concert at Cedar Cottage Presbyterian Church, given in aid of the organ fund, was a decided success. A splendid programme was given, two numbers, When You and I Were Young, Maggie," by Miss Montgomery and Mr. Malien, and ."The Veteran's Song." by Master Binnie Cram, were greatly appreciated by the audience. The concert was well attended. SOUTH VANCOUVER. A pleasant musical evening was enjoyed by many of the parishioners of St. Mary's, 8outh Vancouver/ who gathered together to welcome" the Rev. Owep and Mrs. Bulkeley at 8taples' iHalljlast Thursday evening. Several speeches were, made to greet them to whieh the rector replied inspiring' the people to awake to their religious responsibilities, and begin by building a church worthy of ita name on '-a suitable plot of land which he hopes \. someone will feel it a privilege to give for such a holy purpose. The idea is a good one. So let us all hope that some of our rich neighbors will embrace the opportunity, and not let such a chance of "well doing" slip by. The debate at the South Hill school was a great success and the room was crowded. The evening was opened witn some choice musical selections, after which some very good speeches were made by the Rev. Merton Smith and Mr. Hodgson, who were ably supported by Mr. Kern and Mr. W. Miller. Mr. McArthur, J. P., was in the chair, and the arbitrators were the Ret. W. H. Redman, the Rev. John Pye and Mr. Parsons. The speeches were humorous and clever, each side carrying their points with weight, and at tbe end of the debate there were sixty marks for annexation-and forty- two against it - A vote of thanks was especially given to Mrs. Batchelor for, her beautiful song and' all who have had the pleasure of hearing her sing know she'deserves ber well merited praise. Mr. McAfthur closed the evening by thanking all the ladles for coming to the meeting, as he felt their presence kept a quiet and orderly audience, and he hoped they would come again, after which "God Save tbe King" being heartily sung, the people retired. t We hear Wards HI. and V. are taking up. the annexation question thoroughly and-it is probable a resolution opposing the unity will be submitted nt their meeting shortly. _ - We are very sorry to learn that Mrs. Greenslade was taken seriously ill a few hours before her intended departure to New York and England, and Is now at the General Hospital, having undergone an operation for eppendi- citta:' ' ...

The housecleaning mania is so useless. It comes over some women like an ague iu the spring of the year. They make no effort at self-control; it is a perfect orgy from the start and the family, the servants, and any unfortunate friend who runs counter to it must suiter the consequences. Why they do hot do a little at a time instead of upsetting the whole economic system is one of the unsolved mysteries. One sympathizes with the man, who, having worked Dhis way to fame and fortune, built a beautiful home. To his housekeeper he gave one instruction: "Keep the house clean, but the servant who leaves a dust-pan where I can see it will be dismissed/' Besides introducing- system into the chaos of housecleaning the modern up- to-date housekeeper calls to her aid all' the labor-saving devices she can commandY Benzine and gerosene are her friends/ and, if possible, .in clean drooping spirits to merriment. When the furniture has been covered with a pretty cretonne instead of a chintz, which would be cold to "the feel," and also in appearance in a dark room, and magazines, books and papers have been strewn about, the owner of the apartment will not need to sigh the deep sigh of consternation and despair when she enters what once was the most miserable room in the house. For seasonable hot-cross buns put 1 lb. flour into a deep mixing bowl with a pinch of salt, and rub-into it 2 oz. of butter, add 2 oz. mixed peel finely chopped, i oz. of currants and a little mixed spice;: Make lukewarm " 3-4 pint milk,!add 1-2 cup of .sugar, and then pour it on 2 oz. of compressed yeast in a small basin.

Take small-rugs-to the roof or grast plat and1 beat with a light whip or rut beater on the Burface; but never on the back, which tends to break the warp and woof, thus, destroying the fabric. After beating the face, which brings; the dust to the surface, brush. off with a broom or snow, sweeping with the nap, not against' it. - If a rug becomes badly soiled, Wash it.. Do not allow'large rugs to be cleaned on the floor.. Whilejthe /widely . advertised process of cleaning without the necessity of taking rugs up, gives the surface of the rug a fresh, bright look, it ls sure to rot the fabric. The dirty water, soaking.through the carpet, hae nd way of escape and leaves a stratum of mud between the warp, which soon or late weakens the threads. If beaten at home. It may afterward be spread upon the floor and soiled spots washed out with a solution ot soap bark or borax, and water,, allowing'an ounce of the bark to a gallon of water. . It this is done carefully, and then- the surface wiped' off dry with a cloth wrung out of fresh water, the rugs will emerge clean, lustrous, and in nowise injured. Some, In summer, think it a saving of their rugs to turn them .upside down, walking on the back. This is a great mistake. -Wear on the surface of a rug makes it all the more silky, hut. on the reverse tends to break and injure it. The Girl's Qomain. Tbe daughter ot the house also becomes affected with the germ and plans for her own domain. Here is' what one girl did: The ceiling' of her room was low, and she kalsomined it a pure white. The paper was hung the full length ot the wall with a narrow white molding as a finish at the ceiling. The woodwork was given three coats ot white paint, and then two" of" ehamelr ~ The - bed and���������the dresser were treated in the same manner. An old table was pressed Into service, whitened, and with an oval mirror hung lengthwise above it took; new lease of life as a dressing table. The floor waB stained a golden brown. Such a dainty little nest it was when finished. Brightening a Dark Room. - Then- some housekeepers, especially In the city, have to contend with at least one room which is badly lighted. In the winter time the question is not so urgent, but with tne approach of spring the problem becomes acute. ~ A great deal can be done to modify the. surrounding gloom by the use of white paint, paper of a sunny yellow hue, thin net curtains over the windows, and the elimination of all heavy ones. There should be light picture frames in the room. Almost every one now is choosing dark woods for the purpose, but white, gilt and a pale shade of silver gray should obtain in a room that is not naturally light and cheerful. ' Looking glasses are excellent for the purpose of brightening a dark room, but should not be hung too high or they will simply reflect the ceiling instead of catching the brilliant gleams of the bright fire flare or reflecting the cheerful face bf its owner. Neither should flowers be forgotten in the scheme. An inside flower box instead of an outside one will hide what probably is a depressing view, and will give the window an effect of cheerfulness. , The box can be made beautiful by a thin covering of brass or copper -that j will add to the brightness of the room, and the plants should be chosen with a view to color. At this season of the year there are the most exquisite tulips that would cheer a dungeon; great balls of brightness and pale pink and rose tints that will raise the Leave your order for Rose Bushes 1,2 and 3 years did.

Schumann and Mendelssohn were contemporaries, and in the field of music they were opposites, just as Handel and Bach had been a century before. Mendelssohn was a composer who loved form and elegance of expression, and who even in his most'once sai,_ 0f him; tionB imposed by strict! adherence to musical form,' and to give free abandonment to the emotions. He opened the way for Liszt, Rubinstein, Chopin,, and in fact, every other modern composer, for the Keynote to the difference between the more modern music and that of the older composers lies in its romanticism. Wagner 'Schumann has a tendency towards greatness." But composers are never fair judges of other composers. Though Schumann's" music is too odd, unusual and subtle to be readily grasped by the many even today, yet the praise in Wagner's remark held more truth than the sneer. Schumann is to-day, and always will be, considered as one of the greatest of all the composers. Schumann was more than a composer���������he was an excellent journalist. He established the "New Magazine of Music" in 1834, with which he was connected for ten years; and in which he sought to develop musical-art. His criticisms were of an unvarying kindness, and his essays are valuable a* the present time. EARLY Cl.ww.NG. Cash Grpeers and Provision Merchants NOTE THE ADDRESS Cor. 261(1 & Main PHONET032 (From Saturday Sunset.) For many years the closing hours of bars in Montreal has been 12 o'clock 'at night. Recently these were re- duced to 11 o'clock every week night except Saturday, when the bars niust 'close at 7 o'clock, as they do in Ontario. That this is practical temper- 'ance, was shown by a recent protest of the saloonkeepers of that city who declared that their most profitable- hours ha<l been shut off and as a re- suit they proposed to increase the price of hard liquors. "Let us examine this statement tor a moment. It is declared with emphasis, and no doubt with truth, that the last hour from 11 to 12 is the most profitable of the day. Why ? Not nearly so many men are to be found in the bars after 11 o'clock as will be seen there between. ,5.30 and 6.30. If the hour'between 11 and 12 is the most profitable i. is sp simply becaus men whp have **&%******&***4b**^$Hfr&$tyi$&S A 'CROSS COUNTER TALK ************************** o *.* ��������� f passionate musical movements yet' maintained a perfect symmetry of form. But Schumann was the pioneer in what is known as the "romantic' school" in music. He was a rebel against formalism, and at one time utterly refused to have anything to do with the study of musical theory. He contended that if a man were a true musician and had the true feeling for music, it would be impossible for him to commit any great faults in composition. He lived to entirely change this opinion and to regret that he had not taken pains to learn harmony and counterpoint in his youth, but his ever having held such ..beliefs shows us what a strange mind was his���������a compound of romanticism, melancholia and aggressive radicalism.

Though there was never any active opposition between the leaders of' the different Schumann���������Schumann gradually, bbb schools of thought ��������� Mendelssohn and Schumann ��������� Schumann gradually agthered about himself a group of I young radicals with ideas similar to j his own, who did all in their power to break down the formalism which had | been characteristic of all preceding composers. As someone aptly says: t "Mendelssohn was the very Tennyson i of music, while Schumann was its Walt Whitman." To' those who know the two poets and the great differences ' in their poetry the remark is illumin-1 ative. I One who knows Schumann^ music well must be struck by the oppositional character of it. His music was always emphatically just Schumann himself. His own thoughts arid feel-, ings and experiences are all portrayed _ in his music. And there almost seem to have been two Schumanns���������one a sensitive, dreamy poet, the other a sturdy, aggressive reformer. Schumann himself perceived this odd fact, and he called himself by two names. The fiery nature he cai:ed������Ivlorestan,'6 the dreamer was "Eusebius." and in writing his compositions he used to sign the music with whichever name was in accordance with tbe mood of the work. Liszt sums Schumann up, - ^ ^ Jncapable of taking care by the statement that he waB "theitae-y ������ecome h������*i������* . greatest music thinker' since" Beethoven." He had certainly a very wonderful, as well as very peculiar, genius. Schumann bad a mind given to strange fancies, and with a tendency to morbidness. His sister had been an hypochondriac, and her death threw Schumann into a state of melancholia verging on insanity. - Dark days and times of the deepest mental depression came often to him, an dat such! times his inspiration seemed to be crushed out by the weight of the men. tai burden. He always wrote most and best when he was happiest. When kmm.Mm*M ;%Y-?Y<ysgMyg 17 Customer: "How do you know the colon in Shirwin-William$ Paint.

There is a great deal to be said in favor of early closing of the bars. The difficulty in enforcing early 'closing arises in the rights of citizens came from him as come the songs from happy birds. The wedding year of 1840 found him bursting into song and telling of his happiness in "Poet's Love," and. in "Woman's -Life- and Love"���������-a cycle that told of his Clara's experiences. Besides these two great est of Gerfan song cycles, it was that year also that he composed his beautiful B flat symphony, a perfect paean of joy, which he originally intended to have named "Spring Symphony." In 1843 he became a colleague of Mendelssohn in the. new conservatory at Leipsic, but, during a tour through Russia which followed this, distressing symptoms- of his-mental malady again showed themselves. In 1850 he was appointed to a musical. position at Dusseldorf, and the life on the Rhine seems to have benefited him.

In every case one is struck by the close connection between subject and music. No other title could suit such music, no different music could portray such a title. Schumann was also great in the field of song, for his songs rank next in quality to those of Schubert, the prince of song makers. Schumann never seemed to reach the emotional depths which Schubert sounded, and in affluence of melody and versatility he no more equalled Schubert than he did in the number of his productions. But, nevertheless, he was greater than Schubert in sheer scientific musicianship, his melodies were exquisitely lovely and' he touched certain shades of feeling with a very delicate hand. Schumann is ah important figure in musical history,-for he���������was the 'first they want in homes of their own. Yet it should be possible to hedge , the restaurants about with regulations which would prevent them from becoming a substitute for the open bar. The bars in Vancouver could very well be closed at the hours adopted by Montreal and which have been in vogue in Ontario for many years. If the city license commissioners of Vancouver are anxious to adopt a really practical temperance regulation here is an opportunity for doing so: I am convinced that such a regulation would meet with the approval of many men who are opposed on principle to prohibition.

Resolved, That Loyal Orange Lodge, No. 1629, protests strongly against the pretensions of the Church of Rome, in the decree the Jemere now being enforced In this Dominion because, Firstly, Its aim is to set up and carry out that portion of a decree of. the Council of Trent, which is in direct conflict with the law of the land;. Secondly, The decree is unscriptur- al and is al8o a direct Incentive to a breach of the marriage vow: Thirdly, A decree which treats the offspring of mixed marriages not celebrated before a Roman Catholic clergyman as illegitimate, deals most cruelly and unjustly with the parents of such children; We, therefore, call upon the government to^ take such steps as will secure to those who have been married in accordance with the law of the land, freedom from interference from clergymen or others of any denomination whatsoever, that may lead to a violation of the marriage contract. / On Tuesday evening, June ^th, the Agricultural Hall was taxed to its capacity to hold' the large audience which was present at the grand concert given by the 1st Central Park Baden-Powell Boy Scouts.

The boys gave a demonstration of bridge building and first aid work, as well as their usual drill, which was highly appreciated by everyone present. The scout master, Mr. Day, and the assistant scout masters, Chapman and Wright, were highly complemented on the way the boys had been trained and were promised every assistance that they may require in the way of finances.
