New York, Aug. 30.—Mr. Bryan's entry'
Into New York this afternoon was a ae-.
rlcs of ovations beginning with his landing at the Battery at 4 o'clock apd reach-'
Ing an early climax when he arrlvedw at
the Victoria hotel an nour and 15 minutes later. Here tbo home-coming Ne-!
braskan waa fairly mobbed by the'
thousands of persons who had gather-;
ed outside the entrance and hundreds!
who „ad forced their way into the cor-
ridcrs. Finally an entrance waa effect-]
ed by the police and Bryan reached the;
lobby stairs. He was called upon for a:
speech and then the crowd surged about'
htm, cheering lustily all the while. Mr.
Bryan lifted his hand and secured el-
lone. "Ladles and gentlemen," he be-,
gan: "I believe that later In tke even-'
ing Is the time for mo to make a apeech,
and you must not expect one now. I am
trying to get home, but I have been
travelling so much of late that for the
life of me I oan hardly tell where home
la,"
In Washington," called an enthusiastic auditor.
"The White House," shouted another.
"And we are going to put you there,"
yelled a third.
Then everyone cheered, and Mr. Bryan
smiled Indulgently. "I thought home was
in Nebraska," he continued.
"Only until 1906," shouted the crowd,
"seme said it waa in Missouri," added
Mr. Bryan, amid laughter. "I've about
come to the conclusion that If I find
field, like tbls everywhere, I don't care
where it Is. Boon I am going to take
another course In college, for at a recent gathering ln London, where several languages wero suoken, I felt con
strained to make excuiex because. I
cculd speak but one, but I would have
to know every langua-i* In tbe world
to tell you how much 1 'honk you."
Mr. Bryan then stepped down from the
stairs to shake hands with a few personal friends who crowded about him.
This waa the signal for a general rush
and the Nobra-kan was almost sw.pt
out of the Twenty-seventh street entrance ot the hotel before the "core of
policemen stationed In the lobby could
stem the tide. Finally order was established and the Impromptu procession
proceeded. Several thousand person,
passed in line and Mr. Bryan shook
bauds with them all. The reception
lasted tor more than an hour.

Victoria, Aug 30.—By a unanimous
vote the liberals of Alberni tonight selected H. C. Brewster, of Glayoqnot, as
their candidate for the provincial legislature In the forthcoming general elections. The nomination convention was
thoroughly representative of the constituency, and the choice mode was enthusiastically approved by all present.
Hr. Brewster Is a cannery manager, well
known throughout the constituency and
a business man Of high standing.
New Westminster, Aug. 30.—Although
no formal announcement of the date
when the provincial elections will be
held has yet been made, some politicians in this olty affect to believe that;
th-iy will take place earing the later
part of November or early In December.
ThlB Idea Is betng spread around and
_earch fbr candidates Ib being made, and
although no complete list of. those who
will contest locals-eats has. yet been prepared, some Interesting statements are
made concerning men who are likely
to run.
A strong flght is promised In Delta
where John Oliver, the present liberal
mher, will Ikely stand for. re-election,
lt ls stated that he will be opposed
by J. D. Taylor, editor of th* Dally Columbian of this city. Mr. Oliver and
Mr. Taylor are bitter political foes, and
the contest should be decidedly interesting.
Thomas Gilford, who ls the present
ember for New Westminster city, and
a supporter of ' premier McBride Is
spoken of aa likely to run again, although some of his friends declare he
will not seek re-election. The liberals
have two prospective .-andldates, both
of whom are supported by a large following. They are Robert Jar dine and
F. W. Howay, but from present Indications It looks as though the former
would receive the nomination.
The only other constituency In thip
district ln whtch prospective candidates
have been mentioned ls Dewdney, tho
seat of premier McBride, Mr. M. DesBrlsay, the well-known merchant of Mission, wlll likely be the premier's opponent.

■("Special to The Daily News)
Grand Forks, Aug. 30-W. Pearce, C.P.R.
assistant commissioner of B.C. lands, was
a visitor to the elty this week ana. left
for Calgary direct. Mr. Pearce has a pretty
familiar knowledge of southern B.C., although he has not been in the Boundary
since the famous scrap between the C.P.R.
and Great Northern forces near Midway
about a year ago. He was looking up various matters connected with survey work
of the C.P.n. lands, and his visit was a
brief one. Striking this country' In a particularly dry -time It was natural that
the conversation should turn on irrigation matters, Mr. Pearce 1uib been very
intimately associated with the big Irrigation scheme ln the Northwest now being
put Into operation by the C.P.R. and gave
The Dally News correspondent some interesting • particulars. Ditches are now
completed for-a tract of land embracing
U0,ooo acres, and contracts have been let
for ditches to supply another 100,00 acres
but scarcity, of labor has prevented cbn-
tractors going- on with the work. The
water Is taken from the Bow river, some
30 miles east of Calgary, and runs to aiel-
chen, some Sft miles. The main ditch hns
a ibottom width of 60 feel, with a slope of
two to one, and' a depth of ten feet. The
velocity ls about two and a half feet per
second, and tbe total flow of water some
DOM feet per second.
"About the biggest Irrigation scheme on
the continent,", said Mr. Peacre. "A large
body of water? Yes; nearly as much as
runs In the Kettle river midway .between
high and low water. We think, too, that
the supply will be (he cheapest on tlie continent, as the/cost .will only -be about 50
cents per fifere."
The C.P.R. man figures that, hosing it
at a cubic foot per second, two acres can
be covered a foot deep In 24 hours, or 75
days to cover'ISO acres a foot deep, nnd
he estimates that n foot of -water during
the season stfpuld be enough on soil of
the character of that in Alberta. "We are
beginning to think." he added; "thut with
a thorough Irrigation for hay one year,
the land will hardly need Irrigation the
following yeur. We also expect to find
that a general system of Irrigation over a
large tract, wlll have a modifying effect ln
regard to summer frosts. Another thing,
the.people there are steadily Increasing
their sowings of winter wheat and lt Is
certain -that the winter wheat lands will
not require so much water as spring
wheat."
Mr. Pearce ' should know something of
this phase of agriculture In the Northwest
as years ago he compiled some valuable
statistics In bulletin form on the merits
of winter -wheat, and arranged the famous
exhibit which captured the medal and
prize at the Portland exhibition. The seed
for this came from Kansas and the Kansas men who visited Portland hardly recognised their old variety and had to admit
thut two grains of the Alberta sample
would weigh aB much as three of the Kansas article.
Mr. Pearce referred to the marvellous
growth, now taking place In Calgary. The
census returns he looks on ns rather misleading Inasmuch as n very large number
nf people nre located just outside the city
limits. To these cast of these limits the
Calgary brewery has a large establishment
employing ISO li-imb*. P. Burns Is ulso In
■the same quarter, building a huge five
storey cold storage structure, and building it wiih cement. The Calgary Milling
company Is erecting a 1000 barrel mill and
the Brackman-Ker people are arranging
for the erection of u large cereal mlll|. The
firm or W. H. Cushlng has also Jjist purchased at a high figure a considerable
acreage outside the corporation limits for
their snsh and door factory.
Asked as to tbe Immigration into B.C.
from tho plains. Mr. Pearce said It would
continue steadily. The older people who
had made money were handing their places
on to the ynungor generation and looked
for something to ocupy their lime and the
tendency would ibe for Tbrge numbers of
them to settle ln this province on small
tracts of land and embark In horlloulture.
"Of course, I look for more of such men to
eome from Manitoba where the cllmute is
more severe."

BUT    WILL   ALSO   ACCOUNT   POR
MANY BEARS.
Local sportsmen have been busily engaged lor some days in preparing for
the shooting season which opens tomorrow. The Dally News has recently
published a condensation of the game
laws, so that those who go after lawful game tomorrow can not plead ignorance of what may and what may not
be lawfully shot.
Grouse and deer are principally what
will be sought tor tomorrow and later
on but, uh usual, there will likely be a
good number of bear brought In as well.
Sportsmen differ as to tbe prospects
this year, some maintaining that game
wilt be plentiful, others saying tbat from
reports brought in from reliable sources,
birds will be scarce aud deer hard to
find In many localities easily reached
from this city.
Among those who wlll si art out today ln order to b-_ on the gtound in
good time Is a little party consisting of
William Pearcy, Alex Carrie and William
Morrison. They will go to Mr. Pearcy's
ranch near Slocan and siioot over the
country between the junction and Slocan
City. Tbe trio are all expert shots of
long experience and expect good sport
and -satisfatory bags.
H. P. McLeod and D. C. Blackwood
expect to be occupied tomorrow with
other and more interesting matters than
deeds and mining records; just where
they are going is not announced. C. D.
Goepel is going to the Boundary country
later on as are W. Ward and C. H. Ink,
the neighborhood of Anarchist, mountain
being their favorite hunting ground. Several other of the well known shooting
men are preparing to start off quietly
to haunts known to themselves only,
and next week several good bear stories
are due.

THE EVE Of BATTLE
CUBAN FORCES MOVE TO ATTACK ON
PINO GUERRA
OPPOSING TROOPS ARE SO OLOSE A
FIGHT IS INEVITABLE
Havana, Aug. 30-Oeneral Avalos and
Pino Ouerra ure close to each other tonight near Guanes, whither Avalos; with
1000 cavalry, mounted Infuntry, rurul
guards and recruits, marched toduy from
Subalo. The Associated Press correspondent with general Evalos reports tbat
many recruits fell out ulung the road from
Illness. The opposing forces ure so close
tonight thut a battle is expected shortly.
The only fight of consequence reported
toduy wus a three^ hours' conflict -between
ISO rural guards and volunteers and an Insurgent band estimated to number -00,
near Campo Florid*-, west of Havana.
Fifty Insurgents were killed und many
wounded. One of the prisoners captured
says that -probably 40 insurrectionists were
killed, and ibu- many more were terribly
slashed with machettes In the charge of
the rural guards. The clothing of the-men,
both pursued and pursuers, wus torn in
shreds from running through the brush.
Reports of the surrender In compliance
with the government's offer of amnesty
were numerous tonight. On the other
hand the Insurrection hus received some
recruits. Col. Carlos Guus, u prominent
resident of -tun Antonio de los Banos, has
Joined the Insurgents, and followed by his
friends form the nucleus of a new band.
Public knowledge of the bad behavior of
Pino Querra's force, which has looted
stores ln several places, is having a decidedly favorable effect on the government
cause, as showing the undisciplined condition of this much vaunted army.
Reports received from Munlcaragua,
Santa Clara province, show that there is
great alarm among the people there, who
ure lleelng from the oitles ou uccount of
the growth of the insurgent forces, u-
surrectlonlsts ure scouring the country and
seizing horses und cuttle.
On Monday there wore SOO Insurgents
camped outside of Munlcaragua and by
Tuesday the number hud Increased to 1000.
At tlrst the Insurgents did not Interfere
wllh American property, but later ull Die
animals were taken from the plantations
of Kaffenburgh and Sons of Boston, and
the Munlcaragua Tobacco company of
Boston.

TH- NBW SPELLING.
Heated discussion has been aroused
by the Carnegie-Roosevelt attempt to
reform English spelling, ud toe educational and journalistic world of the
. Anglo-Saxon race la already divided into
two camps, one of wihloh 1b eager to
maintain intact the time honored and
history hallowed forms which have so
long yielded service to the written language, while the other, Willi the rude
'hand of the Iconoclast, ls just aa anxious to break down t_e cumbersome
relics of earlier days and replace them
with machine made substitutes born of
modern mechanical ingenuity. Tihat
English spelling needs reforming tlie
vast majority of English writers will
admit; and the school children of the
race wlll unanimously and enthusiastically hold up their lands in assent
But that that reform should be aceomr
pliehed by conservative methods and
mutual agreemont tbey wlll likewise*
assert, and with equal decision.   They
look with disfavor upon the alliance or
a Dutch-American politician with a
Scotch-American financier to force bhe
hands, the customs and the pens of tho
Anglo-American people. It is the Incongruity of the incident tbat jars, and
the presumption of those who are trying
to do themselves what might, perhaps
have easily been accomplished had they
judiciously summoned an International
conference of educators and philological
authorities and through them sought to
re-mould English orthography.
Carnegie, for he is the prime mover
this time, has undertaken a heavy task.
Relying on his money to purchase the
support of papers, professors and writers,
aid on his skill in manipulating and advertising to make the .-form he advocates "stick" with the common people
after its way has been bought Into the
favor of the learned close, he proposes
almost single handed to moke a whole
race shake off the customs, habits and
prejudices of generations and swallow
ni one gulp a reform made to order,
patented, labelled, and put up ln neat
packages containing three hundred modernised words. The idea, of courae, Is
not original with Carnegie; it was born
loug ago, probably in the mind of some
bright child who objected lo learning
to spell "bow" b-o-u-g-h, when c-o-u-g-h
spelled "coir." Since -len lt haa constantly been growing in volume and In-:
tensity and had probably already approached a ripened stage when the,

Fortunately for llie success of his novel
and daring scheme, seeds uf spelling reform had been scattered broadcast for
years and have been steadily germinating
lu favorable mental soil. Moreover, between the extremists of the two ranks,
those wbo wish to conserve the old and
those who bave pledged allegiance to
the new, stands a vast body of Li.isJne-Js
ami working men and women who care
little for how a word is spelled so long
as they can conveniently, simply and
expressively convey their thoughts from
one tu the other through thc medium of
a written language. Theae men and
women wouid far rather pen "thru" than
"through," if for no other reason than
that by so doing they save tho exertion
of forming several -.ppaienlly unnecessary letters. On the support of this
neutral body "Carnegie" must depend

CANADA SHOULD NOT YIELD.
Judging from the hasty consultation
of mlniatera at Ottawa, from the slgni-
flcant presence of sir Mortimer Durand
lo Quebec, and from the Increasing sigus
of uneasiness In the ea-stern press, it
looks as though pressure was betng
brought to bear on the Canadian authorities by the British minister at
Washington to secure a settlement of
certain questions between Canada aud
the United States that the American administration ls anxious to take up. The
cabinet council convened In Ottawa today was called to consider tlie attitude
that tbe Canadian government should
assume In regard thereto. While practically nothing definite has as yet leaked
out concerning the trend of discussion
at the federal capital, irom the tone of
recent press dispatches from the American capital It may be practically taken
for granted that uncle Sam's anxiety
is confined to those maters in whloh his
Interest Is paramount
On the other hand the Canadian government has heretofore taken the ground
tbat if one question between the countries was to be considered, an effort
should be made to clear up all outstanding disputes at tbe same, time, and that
ground lt may be expected to maintain
consistently throughout the present and
pendlug negotiations.
Tbe United States has been constantly
keeping certain phases of the fisheries
dispute and also the -Hiring sea seal-
iug question to the fore and It Ib known
to be most anxious to secure a monopoly of tho sealing operations In the
Pacific waters.
The Montreal Star, referring to recently cabled reports representing the
British government as contemplating
the settlement of all outstanding questions between the British empire—
cbielly represented by Canada—and the
United States, "without regard, If necessary, to Canadian protests," says that
such a story will find no credence ln
Canada.   It says:
"lt Is Impossible to believe that any
British ministry would at this time be
guilty of so mad a piece of folly as to
come to an agreement with Canada's
nelghobrs regarding Canada's affairs behind Canada's back. Such a course
would be disloyal to every Interest and
understand lug In which the two British governments—the Imperial and the
Canadian—have mutual concern. It
wouid be* disloyal to Canadian self-respect; it owuld bo disloyal to the new
progressive policy of recognising Canada
as'an allied nation;' It would be disloyal to the truest Imperial interests
Canada accepted the Alverstone surrender In a spirit which should—If it did
nob—have commanded the admiration
and gratitude of the inother oountry.
Not for a moment did Canada regard
tt as just; or evcii as good British policy
.... A repetition of this experience, however, might not be followed by a rep-
tltlon of Canadian patience. One such
sacrifice to British stupidity ls enough
for a generation....Hence lt Is tbat we
turn an Incredulous eye upon the report
that Canada is again to be sacrificed.
Highly as Britain values American
friendship, she could not afford to pay
this price for it,"

Kleve, Russia, Aug. 30.—A search at
the residence of M. Mtnninko, who Is an
examining magistrate for political
orlmes, hen, Has led to the startling discovery Uiat he was a member of the revolutionary organisation and that his residence was the headquarters for the
propaganda In this vicinity.
Nlshnl Novgorod, Russia, Aug. 30.—
A congress of eight hundred representatives of the Mohammedan population
of Russia, whloh numbers fifteen millions, opened here today, under the presidency ot M. Topchlbasholt, who was a
member of the outlawed parliament.
Many Interesting questions connected
with religion and education are on the
program.
Erivan, Russia, Aug. 30.—The Hrst general conference of Armenians opened today at the seat of the Armenian Catholic patriarchs. The principle subject
for discussion is the question of the reorganization of the schools ln consequence of the restoration of the Armenian church property by the Russian government, but the most important action,
of the congress is likely to be in con-'
necllon with measures for ending the:
race war between the Armenians and
Tartars,
St Petersburg, Aug. SO.—An imperial
ukase Issued today authorises the minister ot finance to issue 126,000,000 In'
four per cent rents to cover the expenses'
of the relief ot the districts affected by
tlie failure of the crops. Another ukase
prolongs martial law where It already
has been lnforced for another year.
St Petersburg, Aug, 30.—It ls asserted
that premier Stolypin and his colleagues are employing the newspapers
whloh they control to flght the court
Camarilla" This, it ts sold, is the secret of lis' Nevoe Vremya's constant
references during the past few* days to
the necessity of protecting the cabinet
trom interference ot pernicious court Influences. *-. Stolypin Is said to have declared that he Is continually subjected
to embarrassment, adding Uiat he was
convinced that the task which he had
set for himself was Impossible unless
tin emperor gave him an absolutely
free band—In other words, conferred
upon the cabinet a practical dictatorship. In conversation with friends the
premier Is alleged to nave said that history seemed to be repeating itself. The
situation closely resembles the closing
days of the reign of Alexander HI, the
reactionary spirit growing rapidly.
Nevertheless, he considered It vital that
the government should not take a reactionary path.

It la encouraging; to read ln the flt LouIb
Medical and Surgical Journal, one ot the
leading medical journals of the United
States, the following sound argument regarding medicine:
"No sane physician will condemn a drug
or medicine because an overdose results
unfavorably, for If he did he might better
quit the practice of medlolne than to treat
patlenta with drugs so Inert that overdoses
will never do harm. Any drug or medicine
which ls safe if taken according to the
directions on the package; is a safe remedy in the sense In which the word "safe"
la uaed ln medicine."
This ls the only safeguard for either the
doctor's prescription or the patent medicine, to be safe It must be token according to direct-Ions.

Saskatoon, Aug. 30-"Thcse nre busy days
around the C.P.R. Ntockyards," remarked
IE. A. Mulllns, one of the leading cattle
e-*fpo***ters ot the west yesterday In an interview published here. "It makes a fellow
rub his eyes and wonder If the yards are
really the outcome of the little pens In
Which the cattle export trade started a
few years ugo. There have been days
during the last two weeks when there have
been 0000 cattle In the yards and long
trains pf unloaded cars on the tracks.
The forward movement ln cattle has never
-been so early or so satisfactory for years.
The winter-was a very favorable one for
cattle on the ranges, and this was followed by abundant rains in May and consequently a luxuriant growth of vegetation
resulted and the cuttle ure In prime condition. To give you an .Idea of how early
tlie movement is, such ranching companies
us the Knight and Elbrldgc Bros., who
had not shipped a iioof before Sept. i:<
last year, are almost through with their
shipments for this year. Up lo date some
30,000 head of exports have gone forwurd,
While last year for the period from June
10 to Nov, 10, thc export shipments were
only 99,149.

TO CHOOSE BLACK POPE
DELEGATES   TO   JESUIT CONGREGATION ASSEMBLE) AT HOME
WILL ELECT NBW GENERAL OP T^B
EXTENSIVE ORDER
Rome, Aug. 30-The delegates to the congregation of the Company ol Jesuits are
arriving here to go into conventoln to
elect a general of tho society. The election wlll be held about Sept, 1. The power
of the general of the Jesuits, as Is known,
is considered so great that from the hl'-
verity of his black robe, he Is commonly
callod the "black pope," to show that his
influence in the Roman Catholic church
■rivals that of the pontiff, -the "white'
pope." This important post has been
vucant since May, when the last general,
Father Marl-ten, died. According to the
constitution of the order of Jesuits, each
general leaves a specleB of will In which
ho indicates who among his assistants,
live In number, shall act as his temporary
successor under the name of vicar, and
direct affairs until the congregation can
be Called.. in his will the late head of the
Jesuits appointed us vicar Father Bug-
gifero Kre-iiU, - who was his usslstant for
the Italian provinces. The other assistants wero Father Rudolph Meyer of St.
Louts, for the Anglo-Saxon provinces;
Fnther Maurice Meschler for the German; Futher John Joseph de In Torero
for the Spanish, and Father Fine for lhe
French.
The congregation of lhe JesultB to elect
the general has some resemblance lo the
conclave for the election of the pope, there
being the sanje secrecy und the same caution, no member of the society being allowed ln the quarters of the congregation
where only the'appointed delegates can
be present.

A PROSPEROUS COLLEGE
W ESTBRN CANADA INSTITUTION AT
CALOAKY WILL SOON OPEN.
IS BECOMING POPULAR WITH ADVANCED B. C. STUDENTS.
With the rapid progress of western
Cai'ula along (urmlng aud commercial
lines It Is not strange that the far weat
is now the home ot ninny, institutions ot
learning which are the equals of like Institutions in the older settled districts.
Founded In 1S03, Western Canada college has rapidly conn, m the front and
Is now recognized ae one ot the leading
residential and day scnools for the education of ho»». The buildings are already proving Inadequate for the number ot boys who are attending and sew
buildings are now being erected and
will be in readiness for the fall term.
They are located on a fine site of 20
acres near tbe Alberta metropolis.
The college Is wholly undenominational, having no connection with any
religious class or sect, but Is distinctly
Christian ln Ita teachings and deportment. It hat the endorsaU-n of the Presbyterian, Anglican, Methodist and Baptist conventions.
By special arrangement the examination for matriculation into Toronto.
Manitoba and McOlll unlvaraltice, is held
annually at the college. The course*
of study Include the Junior and senior
matriculation and llrst and aecond years
in arts, business, farming and musical
courses.
The staff consists ot Rev. A. 0. McRae, Ph.D., principal; Francis C. Walker,
M.A.; William A. Patterson, N.A.; James
A. Qrelg and other special lecturers.
The school bad twenty-seven students
when It opened, and last year It had
eighty-two enrolled, half ot whom were
resident students. Among the number
were several. British Columbia boys.
The following quotation Is taken from
the calendar of the college and Is a, plain
statement of the alms of the management:
"The chief aim ot the college corporation Is to prepare the youth ot this
land for useful and honorable lives. To
thla end, particular attention will be
given to the harmonious development
—moral, mental and physical—of those
committed to their care. The corporation will spare no efforts to maintain
a high standard of efficiency in all departments of the college.
"In like manner, there will be no neglect of physical culture. True character
la Impossible without wholesome human
employment, bodily, aa well as mental.
And as a boy bu not only a mind and
a body, but also a moral nature—a soul
and aplrit-thla, most ot all, wlll receive
care and attention, The manliness of
Christianity, Ita sturdy and practical
nature, wlll be steadily Inculcated,"

JUDGE REFUSES SECOND LICENSE
FOR K1MHERLEY.
CARROLL  MAKES FUTILE   APPEAL
i-UtOM COMMISSIONERS' RULING
(Bpecial to The Daily Newa)
Cranbrook, Aug, 3U.—the Liquor Licensing Act was amended during the recent session ot the provincial house and
an appeal permitted from the licensing
commissioners to tne county court judge
In all cases where the commissioners
refuse a license for tihe sale of spirituous liquor, or where they refuse a renewal of an existing license,
Tne second appeal under the act came
up for ihearlng here today before his
honor judge Wilson, J. M. Carroll of
Klmberley betng the appellant against
the decision of the commissioners.
Carroll had a license tor hla hotel at
Klmberley, but on the assembling of
bhe then licensing board subsequent to
the 30th June, 1903; the renewal was
refused. The North Star .hotel at Klmberley Is a first-class house, most admirably conducted and is second to none in
the Kootenay country for comfort and
general excellence. The view of the public appears to be that it is amply sufficient for the hotel and refreshment requirements of tfie locality, and this was,
presumably, bhe view of the commissioners when they steadily refused Carroll's applications which he brought forward, sometimes for a new license and
sometimes for a, renewal, at every regular meeting and at several of tihe special
meetings of the board, trom the date of
the flrst refusal.
At 'the last meeting he applied for a
renewal of the license that was legally
dead under the operation of the refusal
of June, 1903. ThlB application, like the
others, was thrown out, and therupon
the present appeal was undertaken,
C. H, Dunbar appeared for Carroll
and the commissioners were represented by J. A, Harvey.
Counsel having been hoard, his honor
held that tn order to grant a renewal
of a license there should be a license
current and in legal standing on the
30th June lasft. In this case the license
ceased to .exist on the 30th June, 1903,
and consequently, as It was legally dead,
he could uot renew tt. There should
be something Lefoio him he could revive,
or renew. He said it was, of course,
opAii lo Cavroll to get the usual petition signed by two-thirds of tlie householders of Klmberley aud apply > for u
new license. As for tbe present case he
had no hesitation in dismissing tt.
The town of Klmberley and the district for three miles around it ihas a
population of about 3ti householders, and
for the purpose of the act the wife or
child over 21 years of age of a householder can sign the petition for a new
license. With Marysvllie within two
miles and a half or so of Klmberley, tt
passes comprehension what a second
saloon license Is required for.
STEMWINDER    STRIKE.
MANAGER     CUBRAN      ACKNOWLEDGES LOCATION OP ORE BODY.
TRIAL SHIPMENT WILL BE OUT IN
ABOUT A MONTH.
(Special to The Dally New.)
Cranbrook, Aug. 30.—Tto tacts of the
strike on tlte Stemwinder near Klmberley, which, appeared In the Issue ol
The Dally News ot 28th Instant, cannot
be further questioned. The Dally News'
Kpiemnlatlvc today met Nell McLeod
Curran, the manager of tbe North Star
mine under whose advice the work on
the property waB undertaken. While
not admitting, or denying' that the ore
body was forty or Blxty feet ln width,
he admitted that the Btrlke was a large
one and one of very considerable Importance to the owners and the locality.
One should know the extreme reticence
of Mr. Curran—his almost Invincible
dislike to say anything which might
even look like ah overstatement if actual facts—to estimate tto real value
ot the admission. He condrmed the general facts of the strike, and said thtt the
ore body, through which three borings
hai been run to teat its actual width,
was encountered between the porphyry
wall and the big pyrrhotite capping
along, or under, whloh they are driving.
It may take fully a month for the miners
to reach the ore, and then a trial shipment will be taken out and sent, probably, to Marysvllie.
In oharacter the ore   resembles the
Sullivan product, but rung far higher
In silver.
There are two shifts of men now on
the ground under the superintendence of
Al Janes who was chief of staff In the
exploration with the drilling outfit
which, strangely enough, belongs to the
North Star people. It looks very much
as If there were some kind of a community of Interests between the two concerns It Is now certain that the Stem-
winder Ib owned entirely by McKenzle
6 Mann, who If tihey do not actually
hold the control ln the North Star are
certainly the largest individual owners
of stock in that enterprise. It may even
come about that the two properties may
be operated ln common Interest.
For all the great promise of the Stem-
winder, Mr. Curran still believes In the
old reliable North Star, and maintains
lt Is the best property on the hill. He
admits he has the ore there, and it
seems curious how It has never helled
his good opinion even when mining exports were warning the owners not to
vonture auy more money ln a played
out mine. Still, though exhausted according, to the views of the experts,
Curran was able to take dividends out
of lt with a crew of less than halt a
score of men. He ts uu. to the bottom
of the Kellog shaft yet. When he gets
there the experts and the knockers may
have another guess coming

Better sticking, .better fielding mid u
slightly heavier team all told 111 Nelson's
favor ut tlie baseball match yesterday and
Husslan-J went down to Inglorious defeat
Id the tune of •!'' runs to 9. It waa rather
a poor Bame as the Rossland lads were
outclassed and outplayed. Unfortunately
they -brought a very young* team and while
the boys played plucklly they were nover
In It with Nelson's bull loggers.
There wub a fair crowd at the game
und while they wero all pleused to sue
Nelson win ,they expressed thlr sorrow ut
not witnessing a closer game. Nap, Mai-
h-ite umpired to the satisfaction of both
teams.
Frisco report* that betting on the Nelson-
Cm™ light Is at even money and plenty

Chicago may have a world's champlon-
Hhlp baseball series next month between

Tho White Sox recently had a wonderful
string of victories, winning 20 garnet-
straight and It was only last Saturday
that tho Cleveland team put a crimp in
their string by taking two gumes from
them In tho same afternoon.
The local lacrosse boys are wondering
what has Bent .Revelstoke to sleep. That
town has or had a llrst class lacrosse team
ami talked of arranging a game -in the
railroad town with Nelson but manager
Deasy states that they have not yet come
along wlh a plain business offer. He would
like to have It und If the Revelstoke secretary is not overworked he might start
thc ball rolling.
A few weeks *ago the fair managers were
talking of having the Cranbrook nnd Leth-
ibrldgc teams here for a tournament at the
exhibition. Cranbrook Ib already talking
of disbanding for the season. Is lt not
time that some definite arrangements be
mode tor that series?
While the Rossland Junior baseballern
met defeat here yesterday, the cricketrs
met defeat here yesterday, the cricketers
from the mountain are not despairing and
are coming to retrieve the good name or
their olty next Monday, The looal eleven
will be much stronger than when tt visited
the coast and as Rosslnnd nearly always
has a good cricket eleven, a close and Interesting game can he expected.
Nelson and Northport Juniors will furnish the baseball attraction at the fair.
It they -win the local iboys are going to
