ZINC QUEST
BEGINNING
Field Work Will Open at
Sandon Early This
Week
P. Argall and A. C. Garde to Collect Data
for W. R. Ingalls* Report-Outline of
Program to be Followed
The field work that will form the first
fltep In the investigation of the zinc resources of BriltBh Columbia undertaken
by the Canadian government will begin
during the present week. A. C, Garde arrived Jn the city from Ottawa Thursday
night and now awaits the arrival of Phlllin
Argall of Denver, whom he Is daily expecting to join him.
Mr. Argall Is one of the best known mining engineers of western North America,
and has had many years' experience In the
study of zinc deposits and their treatment,
He has lately been engaged in lhe study
of zinc mines in Now Mexico. He has
not yet readied Nelson Inn will probbbly
do so tonight.
The plan outlined Is that P. Argall and
A. C, Garde shall visit, tlie zinc mines in
the province, examine the ores, make the
best possible estimate as to tlie extent,
learn the cost of transportation and treatment In each ease, and forward numerous
and large samples, as thoroughly representative as may be, to Denver to W, R.
Ingalls, who will thoroughly test them.
Later Mr. Ingalls will visit the province
himself and will then make a full report
to the minister of the Interior, through
Dr. Haanel. superintendent of mines of
the dominion.
The report will deal with the following
matters:
K'l, Examination of present development
of mines and npprlximatc determination
of tonnage of ores Immediately available;
occurrence and character of the ore and
future access, together with the cost of
mining.
2. Examination of present methods of
milling.
8, Investigation of adaptability of the
ores to the new methods of concentrating
! -magnetic, electrostatic, and so forth.
' 4, Study of conditions affecting marketing of concentrates, including the question of smelting In British Columbia or
'elsewhere   In   Canada.
5, Investigation of the desirability Of
utilization of zinc ore with silver content.
Seen by a reporter of Tlie Daily News
yesterday Mr. Garde said:
"Tho government's Intention evidently
Is that the work shall be thoroughly done.
We are Instructed not to spare time, labor
or expense in collecting Information on all
tho points that have been raised. Mr.
Argall and 1 shall start out as soon as
possible.
"Yes, our program is already arranged,
In outline at least. As il Is already late
in the season we shall visit ihe mines at
the highest altitudes first, and endeavor to
get through with our work ou them before
the snow comes. Afterwards we shall
take the districts at lower levels In order
of convenience. We shall go first to Sandon by way of Kaslo. Ainsworth being
at a low level and warm may safely be
loft to near the last.
"We shall take numerous samples of zinc
ore from each mine, getting representative specimens of all kinds. We shall
have them assayed here hy competent men
and tabulate the results. Sample shipments
of about 500 pounds eah will also be sent
to Denver for a thorough test at the smelter there whicli Is specially equipped for
analysis and treatment of all kinds of
sine ores.
■ "Mr. Ingalls will visit Kootenay later to
review the work done by Mr. Argall and
myself, and will have all the results collected by us for bis use In preparing hi^
report to the government. He and Mr.
Argall have often collaborated before aad
each thoroughly understands the other's
methods.
"The report asked for by the government
ts a most comprehensive one* special importance Is attached to tlie economic and
commercial aspects of the zinc mining and
manufacturing industries. The Investigation means full compliance with the requests repeatedly made by mine owners'
associations and boards of trade. Tiie object Is to make possible the profitable mining and treatment of British Columbia
zinc, so tbat it may bo independent ot
foreign   tariffs   and   foreign   trade   condl-
"There Is not thc slightest doubt that
this province bos great zinc deposits. Heretofore the wealth in zinc, whicli should
be a magnificent asset iu Itself, has been
a detriment. The presence of zinc in sllvei
lead ores has Incurred a penalty at all
■meltera. The problem calling for solution now Ib that of devising methods and
means to make the zinc deposits a TOurce
of wealth Zlno In worth about 20 per cent
more than lead and ls not nearly so de-
epudent for its value, as lead is, on the
trade  conditions   of  other   countries,
"A favorable report from Mr. Ingolia
will meHn much to the mine owners ot
Kootenay us well ns to the whole country.
It will add a new Industry of great pofl-
•abilities, and enhance tho value of more
than half the mining properties.
»I earnestly hope thnt the owners and
managers of mines containing .zinc ore,
will facilitate our work by allowing us
prompt and easy access lo the properties.
We shall, as far as possible, let them
know, as nearly as wo can know ourselves
of tlie probable date of our arrival In each
case.
"I was greatly Impressed by what 1 saw
7 during my stay In eastern Canada.   It Is
a land of plenty nnd prosperity.   It seems
to me to be the country  just  now  with
the most  pomlslng  future."
CRANBROOK'S CELEBRATION.
Tomorrow To Be  a Great Day In East
Kootenay.
(Special to The Dally News)
Cranbrook, Sept, 2.—The people of
Cranbrook are preparing for what they
believe will be the greatest day ln the
history of East Kootenay, ao far as celebrations are concerned. Since Labor-
Day 'has been established as CranbrooU's.
annual holiday each year has brought
forth a better program aud larger
crowds. The committee this year have
been exceedingly industrious, and have
prepared a program that is conceded to
lie the best lu the line of sports ever
presented to the people of this district,
one of the leading features aud the oue
'in which greatest interest is being luaii-
Jfested is Uhe hose'reel race between the
lire companies of Moyle and Cronbrook.
Orainlbrook won the trophy at Moyie on
Dominion day and Moyle is making
every effort to win back the laurels lost
on tbat occasion. The two militia companies of Fernie will be here in 'full
force, accompanied by a band and not
less than 200 citizens of that enterprising town. All industrial institutions of
the district will be closed down on Monday to permit the employees to come to
Cranbrook to celebrate. Already the
Hotels ot this city have heen deluged
by applications for rooms on that day,
and a conservative estimate places the
number of visitors for Labor Day at
from 1200 to 1500. The citizens of
Cranlbrook appreciate the interest that
is being manifested and are fully prepared ito take care of the great crowd of
visitors that are sure to be here. The
parade will include militia companies,
labor organizations, the lire companies
of 'Moyie and Cranbrook and floats representing the milling and commercial
industrial districts. Fair weather is all
that ls needed now to make Labor Day
at Cranbrook this year an unprecedented success.
Considerable interest is shown lu
Cranbrook for tlie forthcoming fair at
Nelson and It is possible that there will
be entries in all the various departments
Including the baby show.
The beginning of the 'hunting season
was celebrated in this district by a large
number of the local nimrods going forth
early In the morning and as a rule they
met with most satisfactory success.

ACTIVITY IN BOUNDARY
TWO IDLE MINES JOIN THE LIST OF
PltODUCEKS
THE   ELKHORN    ANt>    THE   JEWEL
NOW   TO   BE   WORKED
(Special to The Dally News)
PlMenix), Sept. 2—Work has recently
been resumed on two Important Boundary
mines that have been Idle for some time,
but which have heretofore been well known
producers.
On the Elkhorn, in the high grade belt,
adjollning tbe Providence, whioh lately
came into the limelight of publicity through
the quarrels of tlie shareholders, development has been resumed, and a new shaft
is being sunk. Some months ago the Elk-
horn was incorporated as the Boundary-
Elkhorn Mines, Ltd., Phil McDonald and
James Sutherland, two old times of Greenwood, being the chief owners. These
gentlemen developed the Elkhorn for years
and brought it to the producing stage.
every foot of work belnK paid for from
the rich silver lead ore dug out of the property, and leaving them a handsome balance besides paying all costs and the price
of tho property Itself, ns well. It ls believed confidently that the new shaft will
make the mine a producer to such an extent that tho new company will realize
sufficiently from the output to pay for
a new machinery plant, soon to be installed
if all goes well. In tho past the Elkhorn,
lias shipped over 800 tons of ore that has
given results of over ?1W> per ton.
The Jewel mine, In Long Lake camp hns
also recently resumed operation-* after
several years' shut down. The property
is owned by the Jewel Gold Mines, Ltd.,
an English corporation, and it is the most
prominent clnim in the camp mentioned,
being about six miles from Eholt. In the
past some 1300 feet of development work
has been done on the Jewel, and about
2500 tons of free milling gold ore was sent
to the smelters. The property ia*equipped
with a machinery plant and J. H. Smith
Is at present in charge of the work being
done. The Jewel was recently examined
by engineers on behalf of the Le Roi No.
2 company at Rossland.

ROOSEVELT
ISMODEST
His Name Will Not Appear
in the Treaty of
Portsmouth
The Document is Practically Ready and
Will be Signed Tomorrow-No More
Meetings Will be Held
Portsmouth, Sent. 2.—With the exception of a single portion of the text, the
"Treaty of Portsmouth" was completed
this afternoon at a conference in baron
Komura's room, aud, it is believed, Willi
he signed on Monday. It consists of 17
articles.
Tonight at 9 o'clock M. Witte and Mr.
de Maartens and boron Komura and Mr.
Dennison began treating of the text.
The treaty will not be engrossed by the
two caligraphers sent hy the state department. At the last moment, it was
decided to have the attaches of the two
missions perform this work.
The articles pertaining to the non-
fort iiiwition of the island of Sakhalin,
and La Parose straits, and the evacuation of Mauchurla were settled. Both
parties bind themselves not to fortify'
tlie island. La Parose is to be open and
Japan agrees not to erect works to command the straits.
The article relating to the evacuation
of Manchuria provides that thc troops,
immediately on the execution of the
final ratifications, aro to be withdrawn,
respectively, lo the lines of Mukden
and Ilanbin, and the number of "railroad guards" in ordinary times is limited, hut provision is made for the despatch of troops for the protection of
lines'In case of disorders, after the army
has ended its mission.
The last point in dispute was arranged at a meeting of the Russian and Japanese plenipotentiaries which ended at
11 o'clock tonight.
As the plenipotentiaries were leaving
bhe conference, iboran de Rosen was asked if a final agreement had been reached.   He did not answer.
"Will there be another meeting?"
"No," 'he replied, "there is no necessity for one; the clerks can do the rest."
lt Is understood the treaty will consist of 17 articles, preceded by a short
preamble in which it is asserted, on
good authority, no allusion will bo made
to the action displayed .by president
Roosevelt In the arrangement of peace.
GERMAN CHOLERA SCARE
SCIENTISTS   SAY  EVERY  CARE   IS
BBINU TAKEN.
AMERICANS   FRIGHTENED     OVER
LATEST REPORTS.
Berlin, Sept. 2.—The ministry of the
Interior, has issued a notice assuring
the public that there is no reason for
anxiety on account of tlie appearance
of cholera in Germany. The government
has long reckoned on the present situation. A circular despatch was sent by
the imperial department of the interior
to the confederated states in January
calling attention to the possibility of
cholera and requesting them not to he
unprepared for the infection.
The record itonight stands at 51 cases
of cholera and 111 deaths, a steudy increase and a nigh percentage of mortality.
Tlie most uneasy news for America is
that a second case exists at Hamburg.
It was officially reported this evening
that a laborer in St. George's hospital
where the Russian emigrant died, has
cholera, but it is added that thc seizure
is of a milder form than the previous
ones. Two of the other fresh cases are
iu east Prussia, Indicating that the dn-
feoted area has widened. Tho imperial
health ofllce, as shown by the statement
made today to tlie Associated Press, is
confident that lt has the disease in hand.
The most recently reported victims are
among the Russian rivermen.
Germany'.*-; two greatest ibajL'tetflolo-
gists, professors Koch and K. Von Ley-
den, aro out of the country, one lu Africa and the other in the Tyrol. Professor Adolph Kafka, also an eminent
■man, is professor Koch's successor as
head of t'he institute of infection, and he
■has gone to the infected districts direct to take measures to confine the disease.
The Institute of infectious diseases
usually will he open all night examining secretions taken from the digestive
tubes of persons who have died under
circumstances suggestlvo of cholera.
From time to time, corpses arrive from
some parts of Germany, with portions
of bodies done up hermetically.
Tho ministry of the interior has issued an order covering all Prussia, requiring physicians immediately after the
death of any suspicious cases to sond a
messenger with secretions of the alimentary canal to tho institute of infectious
diseases.
The Interval between death and the
medical decision is less than twelve
hours.
Professor MetcUlnltoiT has expressed
the most positive  conviction   thnt the
German authorities could cope with ithe
disease and prevent its spreading in
Europe. Metohinkoffs position as chief
of tlie Pasteur laboratory during Its
most, famous •contributions to science,
and liis own works, give him a recognized place as one of the foremost authorities of the world upon cholera and
other epidemics.
"I can assure you," he said, "from the
enquiries I have made and from personal familiarity with the cholera cases
in Germany that there Is no need for
anxiety relative to a general outbreak
of cholera, or its spread through Europe. This opinion Is based on knowledge
of the extremely rigorous and effective
measures the German authorities .have
adopted to prevent its spread. Therefore there is no reason to believe that
'the disease will become epidemic as in
1892."
"Can there he any danger to tho United States owing to the steamship lines
connecting Hamburg and America?"
was asked.
"1 do not think so," was the reply.
"Everybody in Germany is on the alert
to prevent a spread of the disease, and
it-Is my opinion that extraordinary precautions will not be necessary in the
United States."

NATIONAL
ASSEMBLY
Russian Thanks Pouring
in From All Classes and
All Regions
Move Forward Now Generally Apprtved
Throughout the Empire-Elections
Over by December 15th
St. Petersburg. Sept. 3.—Though
tho national assembly, during the Ilrst
day's issuance of the emperor's manifesto calling for tho assembly, was given more adverse criticism than praise,
and the press took a far less favorable
view of the assembly than did foreign
newspapers, the value of the assembly,
the extent of Its powers, and tlie move
forward it marks in the path of reform,
is now being generally recognized
throughout the empire. A Hood of addresses of thanks is coming in from all
classes and from all regions.
Tho project is being taken up for careful study and consideration, and inuoh
criticism is wearing away, and the talk
of boycotting 'the assembly by the liberals is no longer heard. Public discussion of the assembly and the steps
that are ltteln.fi taken to put It into effect are bringing to light minor defects
and impracticable provisions In the project, and tho ministry of tlie interior is
busy answering questions and furnishing interpretations of doubtful points.
It is apparent some modifications, either
by imperial direction or hy the douma
itself, will be necessary before the assembly becomes a practical working
body. One of the principal complaints
waa lhat the border provinces were not
to be represented in tho first assembly,
but this has been removed by the action
of the Solsky commission for the elaboration of a scheme in these districts,
In which the system of local organization prevails in the governments of Russia proper, and lhe machinery of which
was appropriated by lhe Bouligan commission for election purposes Is nonexistent. Reports to the contrary are
absolutely without foundation. The
elections in 'the empire must he ended

PHOENIX BUILDING BOOM
CHy Hall, Opera House and New Hotel
To Be Erected.
(Special  to The Daily News)
Phoenix, September 2.—This week
plans were drawn by Frank Knott for
the new oity hall for this city, and the
corporation is now ready to receive tenders for the erection of the building. It
I will be a two story structure, with ample
facilities and rooms for the city clerk,
chief of police, flre department, aud have
three strong cells, lt will be located In
almost the centre of the corporation, and
is expected to cost somewhere in the
neighborhood of $4000.
Excavations for the new miners' union
opera house and hall, which have been
going on for a month, are now practically finished, and a force of carpenters
is now framing the timbers for the
building. In the excavations some 2000
cubic yards of rock and earth have
been removed. The building when completed will cost in the neighborhod of
$10,000 and will be complete in every
way—a building that has been much
needed here.
Work on the new Brookyn hotel, being built on the site of the building of
the same name, destroyed hy fire last
February, is in an advanced state, and
Messrs. Marshall and Runrberger, the
proprietors, are pushing it as fast as
possible. The plasterers and painters
are now In charge, and the furniture
which will be of the best, is on the way
from the east. When completed and
furnished and ready for business, the
new Brooklyn, which occupies one of
the best building sites on Dominion avenue, will havo cost the owners more
than $20,000.

British Government Will
Not Alter the Cattle
Regulations
Declines to Admit, However, That Any Discrimination is Existing Against Canadian Cattle in Particular
THE SHOOTINCi  SEASON
WHOLE ACT NEEDS A FULLER INTERPRETATION.
(Special to The Dally News)
Ottawa, Sept. 2.—Tlio new auditor
general, .lolm Fraser, has withheld lhe
bounty ol $01,000 due the "Soo" Steol
Company on structural stent which was
properly earned, until such lime as a
competent court has given ilnal judgment as to whether or uot the $61,000
paid tho same company s"me months
ago (or bounty on steel rails was a proper payment under the Act.
.1. L. McDougall disputed the payment, but passed the amount under the
advice ot A. 13. Aylesworth, K.C, who
said that under the Act It would have to
he paid.
The department of justice reported
otherwise and an order In council afterwards was passed against any more
payments of bounty on steel rails. There
Is a heavy enough protection on Canadian steel rails at $7 a ton, apart from
-tlie bounty.
Tho steel companies arc claiming the
duty and the bounty.
The now auditor wants tho $01,000
which was wrongfully paid returned to
the treasury aud expects to succeed.
The Act will no doubt be made clear at
the next session of lhe parliament as to
any bounty being paid iu future on steel
rails.
A Montreal paper referring to the
matter says:
The bounty on steel rolls which has
bee iiia effect up to this time, amounts
lo j:i per ton, and as the works at tbe
"Soo" are manufacturing rails at thc
rate of 500 tons per day, and the works
nt Sydney at thc rate of 350 tons per
day, the loss In revonue to tbo two companies in question hy the chango will
approximate $2560 dally.
The Act under which a bounty of ?.l
per ton on steel rails was claimed and
successfully maintained iwhs brought
down on August I, 1903. At the same
time a bounty was also provided on
other manufactured articles such as
wire rods, beams, Joist channels, etc.,
ns well as upon pig Iron and steel Ingots.   The Act rends as follows:
"The Goveiuor-In-Councll may authorize the payment of the following
bounties on the undermentioned articles
manufactured In Canada from steel produced In Canada from Ingredients ot
which not less than Hfty por cent of the
weight thereof consists of pig iron made

Grand Forks, Sept. 2.—Yesterday being the first day of the shooting season,
a good percentage of the male population were out gunning at daybreak.   It
is estimated that many hundred 'birds
were shot within a radius of ten miles
of the city.
Grand Forks has just been visited by
a succession of showers for the last
three days, which has done incalculable
good in extinguishing the llerce forest

Dr. Frank, dominion veterinary inspector of Victoria, arrived here yesterday and will likely ho located here permanently.
The dominion government Is calling
for 'bids for the erection of a large stock
corral near the C. P. R. depot. It ls
estimated that it will cost over IJ3000.
^Special to The Dally News)
Ottawa, Sept. 2.—There Is no chance
of the British embargo on Canadian
cattle being removed. A despatch to
the state department from colonial secretary Lyttleton makes this clear. The
despatch was In reply to protests prepared during the last session of the Canadian parliament and forwarded to the
imperial authorities.
It states that the matter has heen reported upou by the British board of
agriculture and the British government
has given it the fullest consideration,
and regrets it is unable to propose to
parliament any amendment so as to
present a law which required the slaughtering of cattle immediately upon arrival.
The memorandum of the British iboard
of agriculture on which the government
acted is given. It states the regulation
is no obstacle to the development of a
large caitle trade and gives statistics to
prove this. The cable declares the "existing law does not cast any stigma on
Canadian cattle as it applies also against
the United States, the Argentine, Australia and other colonies." It Is discredited as only a sanitary law. As
experience has shown how rapidly the
foot and mouth diseases spread when
once introduced, it adds: "The enormous losses which British agriculture
litis suffered in the last 30 years, mainly
by reason of increased pressure from colonial and foreign competition, makes it
more than ever necessary that precautions should he taken against the introduction of diseases, consistent with
the requirements of colonial producers
and tbe interests of consumers at home."

EDITORIAL NOTES.
Together the Standard Oil company
and the United States Steel Corporation paid last year dividends aggregating $60,319,677, whicli will surprise many
of their foreign competitors, and, Incidentally, interest economists who are
making a close siudy of the distribution
of wealth.
The special   correspondent   of   the
London Times with the first Japanese
army writes ,that the highest praise that
Kuropatkln has received comes from the
Japanese.    It expressed itself iu their
obvious delight when they   heard   the
name of his successor.   The old Russian,
commander had a strong hold upon the
sympathies of tihe Japanese people be-'
cause he was reputed to be opposed to
the war;   upon the Japanese   staff because no one could appreciate as well as
these past masters of the profession of
arms the extent ot his difficulties. Their
army was made; his army he had to
make in tihe field.   Against what was,
perhaps, the most thoroughly prepared
force for its ohject in history was arrayed  a force  of   incongruous  parts
PROVINCIAL  POLITICS.
About a year ago lhe MeBride government, acting under strong pressure,
sought a way out of the East Kootenay
coal and old lauds tangle, Mr, Green,
the chief commissioner of lands and
works, Issued a special form of license
for the lands in question, which, while
Jt extracted double fees from applicants,
guaranteed them practically nothing in
return, except perhaps tiie right to enter
upon costly litigation.
By throwing tlie burden of settling up
the conflicting olaima upon these lands,
on the applicants, possibly the government imagined that the courts would
settle the matter and that the different
members of the cabinet might be able
to turn their attention to the many
other urgent problems that are calling
for action. Mr, justice Martin's decision made dt clear that the chief commissioner had no power to issue, any
such special license as he attempted to
do and it was thought that the government would abandon Its former tactics
and "come out of the woods." But apparently Mr. MeBride has no intention
of grappling resolutely with the East
Kootenay lands, any more than he has
any apparent desire to tackle any of the
several other matters that call for
prompt administration, the prevention
of forest fires, for instance. The premier prefers to let the coal and oil lands
question drag on its weary length
through the courts rather than take iu-
Btaut action and dispose of the matter
qnco for all, as eventually ho.will be
forced to do.
In the meantime one of the richest
sections of the province is 'being held
iiuuk. and capital Is kept out of the country, all because of the procrastinating
premier's want of energy and business
administration.
But if Mr, MeBride is slow to act In
some matters he is developing rapidly
In others.
Dr. G. A. B. Hall, who has beon the
provincial jail physician here for some
years, has received notice that his services are no longer required by the provincial government. No cause has been
assigned for this sudden cancellation of
Dr. Halls appointment, and very naturally the move has caused a good deal
' of local comment. Has premier MeBride decided lo Instal the spoils system
iu Its entirety In British Columbia, just
as premier Whitney is now accused of
doing iu Ontario? The removal of Ur.
Ball without any assigned cause, in it-
sell' may be a matter of small importance
to the community at large, ibut if the
doctor has been thrust aside (because of
his well known liberal leaning in politics, just to make way for a conservative nominee, the fact should be speedily made clear.
CANADIAN  CELEBRITIES
GENERAL MANAGER OF THE GRAND
TRUNK   PACIFIC
HAS    AB1LV    FILLED    ANY    NUMBER
OF IMPORTANT POSITIONS
The popular notion of a general manager,
ills* work and Ills woy of doing it Is us far
from the "llfo" as the operatic soldier Is
from tlie real thing. Tlie public regards
tlie railway ofllcial as a sort of hereditary
lord, tlie line his empire nnd the employees
hla subjects, How hard seems the lot
of Larry, tho track walker, in comparison"
to that of the general manager. One travels iiln section on foot, the other rocks over
the rond in a private car, cushioned,
ruilated and varnished.
Tlie general public doCB not know thnt
the G.M. wakes earlier anil worka hours
after Larry's day is done; that while the
track walker smokes his pipe In peace,
forgetting utterly low Joints and high
centres, Happing fish plates and loose
locking bars, tlie general manage'a brain
is busy with the multitudinous problems
that confront him~a score or more, each
demanding Immediate attention. How hard
the lot of the man with the ecoopl   And
yet, when lie reaches the end of his run
ho drops off and goes his way with never a
thought of the 97, until the culler cornea to
call him for the next trip.
But if you watch the general manager,
you will see him .swinging down before
the car comes to a slop, and If you follow
him he will lead you to tlie general offices. His basket is piled full of papers
anil upon his desk there are a dozen documents that might well be marked "perishable." Some nre important letters that
must now he answered by wire before he
can think of rest. The pressing matters
disposed of lie dismisses his secretary ami
picks up half a dozen letters marked
"Private" or "Confidential.." Some of
these aro acknowledged by wire, others
answered In hla own hand. Now he leans
back, lights his cigar and begins to think,
think, think, "Today" is done and he is
already doing tomorrow.
Almost, we may say, as the tall lights
of today disappear in the west the head
light of tomorrow looms on the eastern
horizon. There Is the schedule made out
by his chief clerk, or assistant to the general manager. It opens at 9 a.m., when'
he must receive the deputation of leading
citizens who come to ask him to elevate
his tracks. At 10:30 tlie member for Sque-
dunc wants to see him on a personal matter. At U the grievance committee will be
here with an ultimatum, And so runs the
tale often with bit ten or llfteen minutes
between dates. By tlie lime lie itas finished
reading the bill of fare his cigar has burned up close to his moustache. He scorns
to look at tiie clock but he knows his head
is weary and now ho remembers that he is
married (or ought to be) and that somewhere in the roaring city dinner awaits
him. Then comes a late dinner with cranky
servants, another cigar, a passing glance
at the evening paper, and that's the general manager's day's work.
And you who mny envy Frank W, Morse,
who, the day he wus forty entered upon
his Important duties as vice-president and
general manager of the Grand Trunk Pa-
Ific may find comfort in the fact that
while you miss the gain and glory of this
great job, you also side-step the work
and worry that must necessarily go with
the building and management of one of
the most gigantic and Important railway
projects ever undertaken on this continent,
Morse is a good name. Wherever the
railway has reached Its thin fingers Where
ever the thin strands of steel have been
trailed over the sear Sahara, through the
sand dunes of the south country the mountain fastnesses of the far west or the wilderness of the north—that name is known.
For wherever the railway runs there runs
tiie telegraph and wherever the click of
thc key is heard men have heard of the
Morse System, Somewhere in New York—
in 28rd street, I believe—there is a stone
set in the wall of a house and upon this
stone is chiselled the name of Morse.
Doubtless that house was once tlie home of
tho famous Inventor.
However all this, I fancy has little to do
with the. remarkable success of this young
man who Is to manage the Grand Trunk
Pacific. Ho had In him the elements of
success. He also hod the advantage of
a good general education, supplemented by
a technical education ln his chosen field.
Mr. Mrose's mother comes of the famous
family of Seamans, well known In. the
newspaper world. From her sldo ho inherits his critical eye, his artistic taste,
his keen Judgment and love of literature.
From hla father, we may assume, ho has
his mechanical genius, his love of "doing
things." He enjoyed work and was a
stranger to the dock.   Sundown and pay
day wero only Incidents to him—llko sleep
and a good cigar.
This side of 10 he had filled a number
of Important positions, eaoh a little better than the one he had left.' Though always apparently content he was ever
ready to quit If a wider field opened, with
more work and better pay. But upon this
Grand Trunk problem 1 believe he has set
his heart, and it would probably take a
tempting otter to Win him away from tills
interesting bit of empire building. It
may sound absurd lo speak of a man of
40 as building his monument, and yet if
he succeeds in bridging the continent hero
in the north, he wilt have helped to build
Jiomos, not for hundreds but for hundreds
of thousands of tho homeless of earth.
It Is a task over which the greatest of our
builders might well enthuse-thla linking
tho Atlantic with the Pacific, putting a
now crimp In the cosmos, and shrinking
the sphere by  half a   thousand  miles.
The saving of a full day's sail Is of Itself vastly more important than would
appear at a passing glance. But still more
Important to Canada and Canadians is
tlie development of the 'west. When the
Grand Trunk Pacific is finished Canada
will have more railway mileage than ling-
land. This dream will come true in less
than ten years. All the west wants Is
mileage and lots of it. The Canadian wesl
Is further advanced than was the territory west of the Missouri when the last
spike was driven at Promontory, Utah,
completing the first bridge across the continent. That was less than forty years
ago. See what an empire lies west of the
Big Water today. Our children will still
be young when this "Last West" has furnished homes for 50,000,00" people. Of this
I am absolutely confident, and equally confident that one of the chief factors ll) this
upbuilding of the dominion will be the
Grand Trunk Pacific.-Cy. Warman, in the
Canadian   magazine   for   September   .
ALL PRIZEUO BLANKS

REWARD OF MERIT
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WILL BE INVITED  TO AID GOOD  WORK
If any Nelson baby falls to win a prize
at tlio baby show In connection with the
fair It will be because of the neglect of
parents lo enter It. "All prizes and no
blanks" will be offered for competition.
Mrs. Harris has met with great success
in her canvass which has not by any means
been confined to Nelson. Every town in
Kootenuy bas been Informed that the show
will be held and that any British Columbian baby is eligible for championship
honors. Incidentally all have been invited to contribute to the prize list.
The first reply was received from mayor
Hodder of Kaslo, who assured Mrs. Harris that the enterprise would receive support from there. He promised to do his
best to secure financial support nnd suggested that several Kaslo ladles should
see about sending a good representation
of prize babies. He also added i In- suggestion that E, E. Chlpman, gold commissioner and government agent of Kaslo.
would till a position on tho Judges* bench
most acceptably.
Mrs. Harris Is strusk with the suggestion—which had already occurred to hernial president Roosevelt would be pleased
to receive foreign recognition of his distinguished advocacy of tlie full cradle and
hla efforts In lis behalf. He will certainly
bo invited to aid iu discouraging race suicide in Kootenay.
J. A. Gibson has gallantly kept his promise and has secured funds for tlie endowment of a special bachelors' prize, which
will bo one of the best features of the
show.

She has been careful fn atl her canvassing
to nvoid hurting thc prospects of collections for the general exhibition fund. So
well has she performed the task undertaken tbat the baby show bids fair to be
a source of considerable revenue to tho

Thero la nothing like Sunlight Soap for Household Utensils,
When you have to use hard water it is not an easy matter to wash
household utensils. To do good washing you should have good soap
and soft water (rain water). If you use hard water you must have
good soap, ancTthe best soap yoii can get is Sunlight Soap because it
softens the hard water and makes a copious creamy lather. Use Sunlight Soap Tor all household purposes and the results will surprise you.

NEW YORK FASHION LETTER
New York, Sept, 2—There are certain materials whicli never go out of fashion.
Lace Is one of theso. It seems as If this
ever popular material is to be more the
rage than ever this winter for gowns nnd
•wraps.
A gown made entirely of lace Is not always effective and as a consequence the
dressmakers are combining it with other
materials or with some other lace. The
smartest effects are obtained In this manner. Kmbroidored batiste or linen combined with lace is always charming. Two
kinds of lace, a heavy and a light quality
Will produce somo beautiful results und
chiffon with lace Is still popular.
Aa said before, simplicity is to be the
keynote of this season's fashions arid in
lace gowns marks the smartest models of
this season. Tin- lines are long aud rather
severe and the trimmings are on the acme
order. A very charming model was made
of what Is known as all over lace. The
skirt Ib gored and finished with a medium
width flounce and Is slightly fuller in the
back, forming a short train. The waist is
just as simple, closing ln the back, collar-
less and with short puff sleeves. The only
trimming Is appliques of heavier lace in
long lines down the skirt,
A decidedly novel coat to be worn with
a citron colored cloth costume, is made In
princess style. The coat Is cut off like a
man's cutaway, llts tightly at the sides
and in the back and Is held together by a
rosette of black satin ribbon. It Is cut
with a low neck effect and filled in with
a gulmpe IE lace and lingerie. A wide
collar of embroidered satin outlines the
gulmpe, The sleeves are shirred to the
elbow and have a turned back cult of embroidered satin with the frilled sleeve so
fashionable now, reaching Just below the
elbow.
According to the Intcst reports from Paris
striped materials are to be extremely
fnshlonable. The stripes nre to be had In
all widths, from the barely visible pin
stripe to the conspiramis widths that will
be worn by the extremists. The color
schemes are generally light.
Black, always fashionable, is to be especially smart this winter. A black gown
always looks distinguished ami has the
added advantage of being the most economical in the long rim. A black costume
for eveiulng wear trimmed with bands of
handsome jet, Is the most effective gown
for a matron.
La Mode effects styles In lingerie as well
as the outer garments and the tendency
here as In the case of gowns Is towards
simplicity. The numerous frills, berthas
and numerous other fluffy trimmings are
no longer used on night gowns, chemise
and corset covers of the up to date woman.
Petticoats are the only piece of underwear
which still have billowy llounces and frills.
The finest French batiste and nainsook
are the materials chosen for the finest
underwear ami the coarser but more durable cambric is seldom seen. What Is
lacking In trimming Is made up lu the
shceniess   of   the   material.
The chemise which was pushed Into
the background for a time has regained
Its place hi popular favor and appears lu
somo very pretty designs. A line of beading or Insertion and lace holds the smartest chemise over the shoulders and sometime thi> shoulder strap Is made of ribbon. This Is especially suitable for wear
in JLlic evening with decollete dresses but
Is also seen on models intended for every
day use.
Umpire gowns are the most popular for
chi-mises and "night gowns with the short
waist line detlued by a band of broad beading just below the bust. Ribbon is run
through the beading and lied with long
ends and loops lu front.
The use of ribbon Is one of the distinctive and extravagant features as well as
the stylish lingerie. After one has bought
the ribbon necessary for the beading, the
bows and knots used so lavishly on modern underwear, this item of expense Is
quite  a  large one.
The lovely designs in embroidery, insertion nnd flouncing are pressed into service for trimming some of the smartest
underwear. However these are better for
petlieoats, night gowns and drawers than
for  chemises  and   corset   covers.
IBmbrolderQd medallions may be used for
lace and are easier handled than the other
trimmings. An effective trimming may be
made by buying little embroidery butterflies In various sixes and setting them
around the neck of the chemise or corset
cover with the tips of the wings touching
and a narrow edge of valenelennea frilled
Into the Irregular line made by these embroidered motifs.
Tiny squares of very flue embroidery are
also set Into fine lingerie with valeiiclenncs
Insertion or with beading monograms or
initials set into the garments with lace and
looking as if embroidered to order.

The Oxford Chancellor coal range gives a continuous
and plentiful supply of hot water. This is a point that should
instantly appeal to every householder.
The Oxford Chancellor is fitted with an extra powerful
water-front which is so placed in the front of the fire-box
that   it  gets  the   direct  and   immediate  benefit   of   tlie  fire.

Plenty of hot water is an excellent feature in a range,

EQUITABLE LIFE SOUND
SO DECLARES THOMAS F. RYAN, THE
MAN IN CONTROL
PENDING    INVESTIGATION    SHOULD
APPLY  TO   OTHERS
Seattle, fiept, 2-Tbomns F. Ryan, tho
financier of New York city, who recently
acquired the controlling interest of the
Equitable Life assurance society of New
York, in an Interview here today with the
AsKuuiaied   Press,  srnld;
"Aa to the Equitable Life, my purchase
of the control of the stock and Inducing
Mr. Morton lo take the presidency was
only a public duty whioh any number of
other men would have readily performed
had they been aware of thc consequences
of n continuance of the dissensions among
the old officers nnd directors. I happened,
from my relations to some of the parties
engaged tn the conflict, to have a better
view of the situation than some of the
others.   Thnt was all.
"Thee is not lhe slightest doubt about
tho strength of the Equitable. It is as
sound as the bank of England. It will
hereafter be run as an insurance company
pure and simple, with an eye singly to the
welfare of the policyholders. As to the
Investigation by the New York legislature
nothing could be better for policyholders
of the Equitable, Mr. Morton will afford
the committee every facility, and will aid
In every way, to tlie end that a full and
thorough Investigation shall be made. If
anybody connected with tlie company has
been guilty of wrong doing lie should suffer, ami If anyone has anything In his
possession belonging to the company, he
must give it back. We insist however that
the committee shall demand from all other
Insurance compnj'les that lhe committee
be given the same facilities for nn Insight
Into their management as tho Equitable
affords. We feel Uuu It is not only fair
but clearly in ihe Interests of ail policyholders. The matingeniont of all great
insurance companies must become an open
book, or confidence, which Is the very foundation on which they exist will not soon he
restored. The federal government should
have practically llie same supervision ot
insurance companies as tt has over nation-
al banks. The otllcers and managers of
these companies have in their keeping a
most sacred trust, and they slejuid not ob-
jocl i" ih'1 best Interests of their business.
I am quite sure that president Roosovoll
has given this mailer much thought, and 1
hope he will express Ills opinion;; 1" Congress In his usual vigorous and straightforward way."
"I supiiose yon are not pleased at the
adverse comment of some of the newspapers regarding your purchase of control
of the Equitable?"

shippers or consignees are responsible,
•will be subject to the car service charge.

In numbers beyond his ascertained reasonable ability to   unload   within   the
authorized free time, he shall be allowed such additional time as may be necessary to unload the cars so in excess,
, by the exercise of due am) usual dili
gence,   The agent must at ouce report

12. If, after placing, cars are ordered
to another siding on the same road .to

13. If car Is reshlpped or reconslgned,
the original consignee shall pay $1 per
