Who is to blame foe the accident, the flrat ln the history of the Pacific division ot the Canadian Paclflc railway, will be determined by the Inquest. The eastbound passenger left Vancouver yesterday afternoon in two sections, the first carrying the pald-olt crew of the gunboat Shearwater stationed at Esquimau. The westbound passenger was late and the flrst section of the eastbound train was kept waiting at a siding on the main line, the rule being that the west train takes the siding: while so waiting. The second section, dashed Into the advance section, telescoping the Pullman Loralne. The acetylene tanks exploded and Bet flre to the cars, destroying the Pullman, tourist and one baggage oar, and two hundred yards of track were burned. The marines and Jack-tars scrambled out of the wreck with the agility of cats and immediately set to work extinguishing the flames and extricating others. They did yeoman service. Many were ln their bunks and only naif-clad when the accident occurred. All were brought on to Kamloops, many of them «lad ln shirt and blankets only. Sixteen were Injured, hut only two seriously, their Injuries consisting of burns. The burned men, Whiting and Logan, were in such a condition as to necessitate their removal to the hospital here, where they are doing well and will recover. One man, a civilian employed as third cook ln the commisslary car, re- Belved serious injuries and died before •Id could be obtained. His name la aot known here ana helng a civilian is -unknown to the sailors. The second section, following the cus- : torn, had no orders, the rule being that the flrat section must protect the rear ; division. Whether engineer Hosker, on ! the second section, saw the warning signal, or whether a warning signal was displayed, ls not yet apparent The flrst section was pulled by engineer . Sweeney, conductor Bourne in | charge. When No. 9? reached Tranquille the I accident had Just occurred and the engineer, seeing the blaze from the burning cars, pulled up the train with a Jerk.

KING HAAKON GARTERED IMPOSING CERBJMONY AT WINDSOR CASTLE LAST NIGHT. FIRST INVESTITURE OF THB KIND IN FIFTY YEARS. London, Nov. 13.—King Edward tonight invested king Haakon of Norway, with the Order ot the Garter, at a special charter held in the throne room of Windsor Castle. The investiture was attended with great pomp and ceremony. Although knights of the order are elected from time to time as vacancies oome, there "has not been an investiture like the one of today since 1855, when the late queen Victoria conferred the honor upon Napoleon III. and Victor Emmanuel, then king of Sardinia. King Edward is the only surviving member of the royal house of Great Britain who participated in that historic event. Queen Alexandra as the "Lady of the Order," whose predecessor lived two centuries ago, was present tonight. The brilliant colors of the gorgeous robes of the knights and knight commanders of the order, as well as the richness of the decorations of the historic chamber, wh-v» tb* investiture took place, made tbo sc-iae one ot the most brilliant and topi-stive of the present reign. The ceremony was followed by a state banquet.

A feeling of intense- relief will be ex- porloucetl throughout southern British Columbia at the prospective early and complete settlement of thu strike at the Crow's Nest Pass Cot*-.! company's mines. We unfortunately bave to qualify the announcement regarding the settlement of the strike because of the action of Gladstone (Fernie) local union yesterday afternoon In declining to return to work until so Instructed by president Mitchell. However, there can he no question ln face of national board member Burke's unqualified admission of the correctness of general manager Llndsey's contentions and his agreement, on behalf of president Mitchell, that "all men are to go back to work," tbat at the earliest possible moment imperative instructions will be received 11 Din president Mitchell by Gladstone local to loyally observe the terms of MlUement agreed upon by hts representative. Relief will bt aiperlenced not only be- iBKusje aa l&dtMtrUd dtoputo bm b* terminated that threatened serious Inconvenience and loss to the great mining and smelting Industries of southern British Columbia and made probable a fuel famine just as winter was at hand, but because tbe action taken by national hoard member Burke serves to remove any lack of confldence that may have been engendered in the public mind as to tbe honesty of purpose of a great industrial organization. Mr. Burke appears to havo taken a bold course in face of circumstances tbat might have deterred a less courageous man and "whloh certainly would have deterred him had he not felt absolutely certain -that he would have the support of his chief, president John Mitchell. The Daily News, from time to time, throughout the progress of the strike published the statements of both sides and the conclusions drawn from those statements were practically those set forth ln Mr. Burke's memorandum of agreement and consequently we took the position that the strike Bhould not have been called and that the wisest course for district president Sherman to take would be to order the men back to work. This view did not prevail until a national board member had been sent out from Indianapolis hy president Mitchell to investigate the facts. Mr. Burke made his investigation and whilst, ae In duty bound, he made every effort to protect the Interests of those whom he represented, he was forced to unqualifiedly concede the soundness of the position taken by the company. This Is in no sense a victory gained by oaptul at tht expense of labor. It la ■Imply a declaration that honesty and good faith must- be observed between labor organizations and employing companies and as such it is a prouuounce- meut of the very greatest Importance and one tbat should exercise a potent influence for good in British Columbia. It may not be out of place to again express gratification at the admirable conduct of the strikers throughout a very trying period aud to congratulate former president Dicken of Gladstone un ion, upon what cannot be regarded otherwise than as a complete vindication of his course. SANDON LABOR SITUATION We publish today In another column a copy of a resolution adopted by Sandon Miners' Union, No. SI, Western Federation of Miners. The resolution calls for no special comment, save to point out that The Daily News did not charge the Sandon Miners' Union with fomenting trouble, neither did it insinuate that the majority of its membership were not in sympathy with the movement to prevent the introduction of Asiatic labor into the camp. The resolution would have more force and might have served some useful purpose had it dealt with the statements Tbe Daily News did make and which, as at present advised, it sees no reason to either retract or modify. In this connecetion we have read with very great pleasure some comments In lhe Sandon Mining Review as indicating a sincere desire to meet a difficulty that has long proved a cause of friction between mine managers and the unions. The Sandon Mining Review, after some reflections upon the editor of this payer of a rather humorous nature, proceeds to say: "A few of the mine mauagers have undoubtedly bad cause to regret their experience in one or two instances with "white" cooks. It Is a serious matter for a mine manager to discover a big gang of his men waiting for breakfast and to learn that his cook is down the hill on a drunken jamboree. Several instances have occurred also in which the "white" cook, brooding over some real or fancied grievance, has Impulsively torn off bis apron, rolled his blankets, and quit the job cold. Some of- the mine managers argue that for this reason a Chinaman is preferred. He, they claim, will not leave a body of men In the lurch and the manager ln a serious predicament. "John" has always a brother or cousin handy who wlll fill his shoes on short notice, and so Chinese kitchen help has been Installed at one or Sandon's banner mines. "We believe that matter can be adjusted to Uie satisfaction of all If a little tact is displayed. It ls not to be supposed for one moment that the Miners' union or any other body of men will endorse such actions of their cooks. We believe the Miners' union should be in a position--flrst, to guarantee tbat the cooks supplied are proficient, industrious and sober; second, that all cooks contract for a stated period, and third, that adequate notice of -qultfllng 'be handed the manager, If the contract has lapsed. The union could reasonably adopt such methods, as their members at the mine are directly and distinctly the employers of the cooks. It would be a satisfactory condition for both mine manager and man, as the former would be protected from an arrogant, Inexperienced "hash-sllnger,' and the union would thus weed out these undesirables who are a menace to its constitution and a disgrace to an honorable profession. Under such a desired order of things the Chinese cook would be a relic of bygone days, and a better class of labor would .predominate at the mines, for tbe reason that Lhe ban would be lifted." The case could not he better put and we feel confident that if this problem be grappled with along the lines suggested by the Sandon Mining Review the best of results will ensue. Wo might, perhaps, add to the recommendations of our contemporary, that the desired end would be more speedily obtained if more of the union miners who endorse these views would take an active Interest in the affairs of their respective unions.

It is to be hoped satisfactory arrangements will be speedily come to in the matter. In any event It Is clear from the chairman's statement that the directors are fully alive to the advisability of unwatertng the mine and if the proposed new company should fall to materialize lt may be taken for granted that the proprietary company wlll get busy. The Victoria Colonist rebukes some up-country paper for stating that some of the resources of the province have been criminally squandered by a series of governments. "OriniiuaDly -squandered," Is certainly coming It strong, but still tbe profligacy of such deals as the sale of Kalen island for (10,000 and the handing over of 800,000 acres of land to the Columbia & Western Railway company, to go no further back in provincial history, might, ln the utter disregard shown for the people's interests, he fairly classed as criminal.

PREPARE FOR CAMPAIGN GOVERNMENT POROSIS ALREADY ACTIVE ON THE ISLAND PREMIER McBRIDE MAY SEEK ELECTION IN VICTORIA Victoria Times, Saturday, Nor. 10: It Is aorno time since the Times made the announcement that premier Me-B-rlde. would ' not meet the leglnlature ngaln before holding an election. It was then announced: ■that the premier would -probafoly go to the country In December. Since that tlmo the government has been steadily preparing for that elecilon. The premier's trip to Ottawa to attend the inerprovlnclal conference of premiers und the course he pursued there were In fact a part of the plana of Hon. Mr. McBride to make what he believed would he a campaign cry which. would detract from the many sins of his- •dmlnsstratlon ond ensure hla return to power. " The most hats been made of the premier a waHc out of the conference since his return lo make political capital, and the government has about decided to take the chances of appealing to tlie country. All thts week a final iitinouncememt on betialf of the government has been expected. It haw not yet come, but next week, the premier may reach a conclusion. ;■ While December was to have been tne hionth for elections, yet the Indecision ol premier McBride has delayed the matter so that there Is some likelihood now that It may not be possible to bring on the election until early In the new year. Already ln anticipation of the election the names of probable candidates are being dlacussed. It has been suggested that premier M*pBrkle .may -aonlteat Victoria city ln view of tho fact that R. Jardlne has accepted the liberal nomination for Dewdney, which Is popularly taken as spelling defeat to the premier, D. M Eberts has been at work In Saanlch for some weeks preparatory to again contesting that sent, where he went down to defeat at the hands of H. Tanner, the liberal candidate at the last election. It has even beon suggested that Mr. bib- erts might be taken Into the cabinet before the election- In order to strengthen his cause. In Esquimau district it la somewhat questionable who will represent the conservative Interests, fl. E. Pooley. speaker of the legislature ls not regarded as being a strong cnndldate, and there ls talk or his dropping out of the fight conditional on the position being made hereditary and H. Pooley fti'lna* given the nomination. On the other hand H. Dallas Hetonoken If* twlleved to have his eye on that constituency , In Cowlchan the conservatives expect W. II. Hayward, formerly M.P.P. for Esquimau, to represent the government Interests. W. Manson In Alberni and R. Grant in Comox mny very likely be given the nomination again. ln Cnsalar C. W. D. Clifford is regarded as an impossibility and J. A. MoKlnnon Ot Vancouver, who is deeply Interested in the Swanson Bay pulp and sawmill proposition, moy be expected to get tihe nomination. G. A. Praser's removal to Victoria precludes hla winning again in Grrad Forks.' An .effort will be mnde by tlie conservatives to Induce E. Miller, barrister of that place to contest the seat. Ia the majority of cases the sitting members of t-he different constituencies, representing both sides of the houae may be expected to again receive nomination. 3. II. iHawthonuhwalte, the socialist, expects to again run in Nanalmo a-nd states that he will win. Ho also looks to having olbout Ave followers In the new house. This Includes P. Williams and W. Davidson, and he ulso expects to win Pernle, Grand Porks nnd Greenwood. Among the liberals already nunned as candidates, other than the sitting members are R. Jardlne of 'New Westminster, for Dewdney and Dr. O. A. B. Hull of Nelson, Smith Curtis, one of tbe ablest campaigners, ls also recognized as a likely candidate. He Is spoken of ns the liberal representative In the -Similkameen and also Cor Ymlr. Nothing definite has been settled however, while Dr. Macdonald of Kelowna, wlll have an easy fight for the Okanagan. H. lire-wester ls already in the held In Alberni.

Zam-Buk Wins Workers' Praise MARVELLOUS CURE OF BURNS Zaim-Buk has been called the "worker's friend" because It brings such relief and ■healing to workers who suffer from cuts, burns, bruises or any skin Injury or disease. Alf. J. Clark of Cavendish St., London, Ont., tells how Zam-Buk cured him of severe bur*n.| He says; "I got my handa severely burned with lime. The burns were no deep that as I piled niy shovel the blood actually ran down the handle. Thc ngony I suffered you may well Imagine. I tried si-vcral different kind-s of oalvcs but the burn---. Were too severe for these preparations to heal. "I obtained a supply of Zam-Buk And the very first application gave me ease. This pleased me you may guess, ibut as I applied thc balm each day I was more and more pleased with the effect. The pain was relieved completely. "I had often heard of ZamiBuk, but thought before I tried it that It was similar to the ordinary snlv'-s you see advertised. In a very short time Zam-Buk healed my burns completely and my hands actually felt better, the muscles more lira and the skin In better condition than before I waa burned;" Not only for burns, but far cuts, bruises, •pralns. etc., Zam-Buk is the best and uircMt cure. It also cures eczomn, ulcers, bscesses, ringworms, boll, erupllons, poisoned wounds, chapped hands, cold sores, •hllb1n!ns, bad leg. plica, etc.( Aai drug- ','18-ts sell at 60 cents a box, or post free from the Zam-Buk Co., Toronto, on receipt of price, six boxes for 92.60, Chafing Dish Dainties are all improved by the addition of a small quantity of Armours Solid Extract o/Beef (POTTCD IN CANADA) Armour's Extract of Beef is concentrated soup stock.

HAIL MINES' MEETING SHAREHOLDERS ADOPT REPORT OF i DIRECTORS. COMPANY rORMBD TO OPERATE THB SILVER KINO MINE (London Financial Times) Tho seventh ordinary general meeting of the Hall Mining & Smelting company, limited, (British Columbia), waa held at River Plate House, Finsbury- clrouB, B.0., lord Ernest Hamilton (the chairman) presiding. The secretary (Mr. A. E. Ashley) having read the notice convening the meeting and the report of the auditor, the chairman said: I should like to begin hy saying that it lias been a matter of considerable disappointment to the directors tbat the balance-sheet this year does not show up better Last year the balance-sheet showed an Improved- profit on the previous year, and the pervious year again, showed an increased profit on the year preceding that, and we had; we thought, every reason to hope, if not to expect, that that Improvement in our profits would he permanently maintained. However, that bas not proved to he the case, Thla year tho profit on the mine account la £1,1112, the profit on the working of the Emma group la £1,3.2 and the loss on the smelting account Is £1,030. lt ls, of course, owing to that loss on the smelting account that the balance-sheet does not Bhow better. However, tho causes of that loss are very easily eiplalned, and I think when I have endeavored to make clear to you what those, causes are you will understand that though the results this year are disappointing, still they are not in the least discouraging from the point of view of the future prospects ot the company. The primary cause of the lose which the smelting account shows this year ls undoubtedly the extreme caution whioh Hie board on this aide and the management on the other side have ahown with regard to the Installation ot an Improved process at our works at Nelson for smelting ores. I have told you on prevloua occasions that we had: in contemplation the Installation at onr smelting worka at a plant for the facilltatlnc and cheapening «•' smelting and the Improvement fit extraction. There were In the Held three rival processes, all of whicli claimed our attention. These three were •ultimately reduced to two, and the balance appeared to be very evenly divided ibetween the merits ot those two. I ithlnk you wlll understand how disastrous it would have been for a com- ipany situated as we were to make tho colossal mistake of Installing the plant of a new process which, when Installed, might have turned out to be not by any means a failure, but other than absolutely the best process known In existence. The hoard, therefore, deliberate- *ly came to the conclusion that the best •and safest policy was to face the probable loss which might ensue from being at a disadvantage with other competing smelters for a short period rather than to run the rbsk of making such a disastrous mistake as Installing a plant which was not absolutely the heat procurable. I Bhould like to make it quits clear why this has resulted In a loss. In the district in whloh our Btnelter Is situated there are several rival smelters, and between, these Bmeltere the compeU- :tlon ls extremely keen for the ac-_'hc. safe *****•• to buy Coffee.

Vangouver.bg. process known as the Huntlngton- Heberlein. I went in the winter over to Germany and saw iho inventor and patentee of one of these processes, and I also inspected his smelting works and saw the process In operation there. In the spring I also went to British Columbia and saw the rival process in operation at a neighboring smelter, and as tbe result of this and of other negotiations we Anally decided to insist the Huntlngton-Heberlein process. In addition to this process we have put ln during the past year very considerable Improvements and alterations in our smelting plant Tho plant was originally very badly designed, and in a way which entailed a great deal of unnecessary handling and consequent manual labor and expense, and as the labor situation is one of the greatest difficulties that smelting managers have now to contend with In British Columbia It became Quite clear to us that tt was absolutely necessary, even at considerable expense, to Instal a utant whioh would have the effect of doing away with this double handling and replacing manual labor by mechanical appliances. The effect of all thts ts that we have spent a good deal of money on the plant tn the past year, and we are now, I think I may say, as fully and efficiently equipped as any other smelter tn British Columbia. Those of you who have read the reports of our general manager and ot our smelting manager will see that they both express the utmost confldence that with the plant we now have they 1 will In the future be able to make out of the smelting business a very substantial profit There Is not very much to be said with regard to the Elm-ma mine except this, that trom the very tlrst It lias turned out a -most successful enterprise, and though the profit Is not by any means a sensational one, still that does not In the least represent the value of our Interest In the Bmma -mine. When I was over there 1 went down the mine In company with the general ■manager and I must say I was greatly impressed with the size and solidity ot the ore .body and also fey tbe indications which undoubtedly exist there that aa we drive further into the hill the value of the ore wlll materially increase. There. It every reason to believe that In course of time our quarter interest in the Bmma mine may prove a very Important asset to tbe conmany. With regard to the SUver King mine, you remember that at the termination of his lease ot the mine we entered Into a partnership agreement with Mr. Davys. The terms of the partnership arrangement were that Mr. Davys should aot as manager, with entire control, and without salary; that he should And half the capital which was required for further development, the oompany finding the other half, and that the proflts should be equally divided (between Mr. Davys and the company. The main object of this arrange- ment—which I may tell you was suggested to the company by Mr. Davys himself-- was the ultimate unwatertng of the mind down to the seventh level. Mr. Davys expressed the wry strongest coivtidence in the existenc of a strong body of ore between tbe firth and seventh levels, and It was in order to unwater the mine 8'id get at tlmt ore body that this arrangement was entered Into. Unfortunately, however, the unwatertng ot Uie mine has not yet taken place. We have from time to time represented to Mr. Davys the desirability of taking active measures In that direction, and when 1 was'over there I had an Interview with him on the subject and he quite agreed with me as to the desirability ot immediate action. We have had quite recently a very candid, frank and straightforward letter from Mr. Davys on the subject, ln which he says thut he confidently expected to be able to extract bo much ore from the upper levels as wouid furnish him with the necessary capital to And his part of the money for the unwatertng of the lower levels. 1 must say that this was not tn bur minds when we made the arrangement with Mr. Davys, and we did not at that time understand that his finding half the capital for unwatertng the mine waa dependent upon his being able to get sufficient ore from the upper levels to provide him with funds; but he now states frankly that having been disappointed with regard to the ore ln the upper levels, he Is not ln a. position to help tlie company In unwaterlng the mine, it must be apparent to every shareholder as lt Is to the directors, how extremely desirable it Is that wtth copper at Its present unprecedented high price, action, and Immediate action, should, If possible, be taken in order to ascertain whether there is a considerable body of copper ore below the fifth level. Our agreement with Mr. Davys terminates on the 30th June next year, and we have now written to Mr, Campbell asking whether Mr. Davys would release us from our partnership arrangement and allow us to work the mine ourselves. The letter has been crossed by a cable containing a proposition from Mr. Davys himself to transfer his partnership agreement to a powerful and substantial company, which would take his place and whtch expresses Us anxiety to at once start unwaterlng tho mine and to get at the ore. The matter Is now in negotiation and on that subject 1 can give you no further information, hut we are quite alive to the Tact that wo must leave no stone unturned to unwater the mine and get at the ore if It does exist. I have already alluded once or twice to my visit to British Columbia this year. I was at Nelson and the neighborhood for a week in company with our two managers, Mr. Campbell and Mr, Hedley and 1 must say I was Immensely struck with their enthusiasm and by the determination which they both displayed to make the affairs of the company a success; and not only by their determination, but by the confidence which they both expressed ln their ability to bring this about. I hod ample opportunity of seeing the working of our own smelter, and 1 also visited lhe smelters of Trail and of Granby and went down the Emma mine, and it will, no doubt, be a source of grati- ilcatlon to the shareholders to know that my visit was not mode at the expense of he company. The chairman concluded by moving the adoption of the report and balance sheet. Mr. 8. Boulnols seconded the motion. Mr, F. Walker said that the dlreotors had apparently entered Into a partner- Hhlp wtth Mr. Davys, and he did not think the arrangement reflected credit on Uie illrootors. Referring to the Loudon expenses he expressed the opinion that they were far too heavy for a company like this, and suggested that steps should be taken to reduce them. The ohairman In reply, said that he Ud not think there was any co-use for alarm over what he had, perhaps, wrongfully described as a partnership with Mr. Davys. It was a working partnership and when they had entered Into the arrangement, whloh he could not say they had regretted, they did lt with their eyes open. Ilu was perfectly certain that If any proposal to the advantage of tho company were mado to Mr. Davys he would put no obstacle In the way to prevent It being carried out. With regard to iho offlce expenses, no doubt they were high, but the matter was now having the consideration of the directors, and he hoped that at the next meeting ho would bo able to report a reduction. There was no obligation on the part or Mr. Davys or tho company to find any -particular sum In order to unwater the mine. There was only a, stipulation that If capital was found It was to be found In equal proportions. Mr. O. Freeman expressed the opinion that the oompany wns In a very much better position now than It was last year and he thought that at the next meeting the dlreotors would have a muoh better balance sheet to present. The motion was carried unanimously. The retiring director, Mr. O. Freeman, was re-elected, and Mr. Harry Baker was reappointed auditor. The proceedings then terminated.

When the outs arrived everything would -be ready to go on with the printing or the new folder. The letter from the engraving company was referred back to the advertising committee to take action. Mr. Beeston further reported that a special article, together with some views sent to the Toronto Globe, had not appeared as the Globe asked (300 for Its publication and on consideration thc matter had been dropped. At the committee's request Mr. Beeston will take up the question of the publication of special articles with Collier's Weekly and the Pacific Monthly, The secretary read a communication from C.P.R. land commissioner Dennis, addressed to T. G. Procter, asking for Information about land sales In tho Kootenay during 10M, and also for other specific information for use in the company's annual publication. Tho secretary stated that a letter had been sent to many local ranchers asking for specific information as to their experience during the past year, this being asked for by Mr. Dennis. It was decided to prepared a special article on the fruit land situation hereabouts and hand the same to the local agents, Messrs, H. and M. Bird. The matter or preparing the special article was referred to Tl. G. Procter and the secretary. The secretary will also make, a special effort to get In the views of local ranohers for use of thc C.P.R. land depratment.

Mr. Lny thought that In future all payments should be made only through tho club's treasurer on tho "O.K." of tho chairmen of tho respective committee--., a motion to that effect was unanimously carried. A vote of thanks to M. S, Parry for his efforts ln carrying out the Rosclan entertainment was passed. It wob the general opinion that under the circumstances the club got off fairly easy. Tho secretary asked for Instructions regarding the issuing weekly or the mining shipments aa appearing In The Dally News. Mr. Lay thought the arrangement ought to be continued; It was one of the hest kinds or advertising ,and ho moved that It be continued. Mr. Nelson seconded the motion, which carried. Mr. Lay reported $261.39 cash in the bank. The salary or the secretary for December, January and February was fixed ul $25 a month. The rent of the office, $10 a month, was loft at thut ngure. Messrs. \V, Walker, allium and Procter will be asked to assist the entertainment committee in getting up the dances. The socrenry was Instructed to got into communication with all tourist associations In Canada und in Seattle and Spokano and arrange for exchange ot literature and business generally. The regular meeting of tho club will be held two weeks hence. The meeting then adjourned. every point scored was taken up by the audience. Pearl Reesor made a charming sweetheart, looking and speaking her part moat naturally. The cowboys were very lifelike and the occasional lapses Into cursory adjectival English was rorgiven from ita very truthfulness, Honey Wlggln was easily the best, however, although Travers did well as Steve. Mr. Ynle kept his role throughout and showed that lie has something In him beyond mere rarco comedy. ■He never degenerated Into mere tomfoolery -but kept his audience In a roar nevertheless. George A. Dayton aa the villain, Tram pas, played well. The contrast be- tyeen the part and that of Monday night, when he appoared as the chancellor of Wolfsberg, was marked enough to emphasize the verdlitlllty for which this actor is known In New York. The house was better than that of Monday night but Nelson play goers who ore not going "early and often" are missing a rare treat. east to point of commencement, the whole containing 160 aores. A.

AT THE THEATRE Good Production of "The Virginian"— Double Bill This Evening "Ohe or the prettiest things ever seen on the Nelson stage," was the dictum ot a well known play goer last night after witnessing the Nelson company ln Owen Wlster's dramatized novel, "The Virginian." Such Is doubtless the verdict of the great majority of the audience, for the applause wus continuous throughout and certainly the Nelson coinpany cannot complain or a cold house—ir they wll) only vivify it wtth the right kind or play. With tho "Soldier of Fortune" ou Monday night and "The Virginian last night, the company hns begun the week well. Tonight will be played "David Gnrrlck's First Love"; on Thursday, "Arizona," and on Friday night "The Merchant of Venice." No bill was announced last night for Saturday but It would be a good thing to end the week with "As You Like it." It Is one of tho finest or Shakespeare's plays and It ls understood that It la on the repertoire of the company. Harold Nelson's spurs were won in the Kootenay with Shekespeare and there are many who would like to see him as Orlando, to say nothing of the opportunity of presenting a new Rosalind, and a pretty one, to a Nelson audlance. The honors of "The Virginian" were fairly divided between Clifford Bruce ns the Virginian, and William Yule, as Honey Wlggln. The charm of the love scenes bet-ween the Virginian and the sohool marm.
