Originally there were five parties to the case, including the Canadian bank of Commerce. That particular litigant withdrew on receiving other security for a certain loan and among the remaining parties Judge Forin directed an interpleader issue to be tried', naming as the defendants Warner and Black, and aa the plaintiffs, C. C. Ruthrauff, Albert Loening and Lewis A. Halt the New York mining brokers who attached the money to satisfy a claim for commission for the sale of the Mother Lode gold mine of Sheep creek. For the plaintiffs were E. P. Davis of Vancouver, and E. A.■Crease of Neleon, while the defendants were represented by W. A. Macdonald of Vancouver and H. C. Hall of Nelson. Both defendants were present In count while Mr. Loening was present from New York in behalf of himself and associates, Practically all the legal frater: nlty of Nelson ■ were spectators of the trial in the course of the day. The day was given up to the taking of evidence, and by (mutual consent the hearing of argument was deferred to a date yet to be set In November at Vancouver, For little shont of two hours, the time of the court was taken up with the putting In of original documents, including numerous options on the Mother Lode and Kootenay Belle pro- ■pertles, various agreements or memoranda between Warner and Black and their New York associates, letters and telegrams. Terms of Bonds A. B. Netherby, manager of the local branch of the Royal Bank, was placed in the box by Mr. Davis to prove the escrows, producing from his escrow book two escrows.

The second escrow was given to the bank on Feb. 11, 1909, to be surrendered to Mr. McMartin on Jan. 1, 1910, if the final payment of $25,000 of a total of $75,000 was made on the previous day. This payment was made and the money was attached 'by the New York parties. Mr. Loening was the only witness for the plaintiffs, while evidence for the defendants was given by MeasrB. Black and Warner and E- C. Wragge. A vast deal of ground was traversed, covering the various negotiations among all the parties concerned, hut certain documents stood out from the evidence produced by both sides.

Morrison on the one hand, and Loening, Halt and Ruthrauff, on the other, contemplating the sale of the Mother Lode and Kootenay Belle properties and fixing the remuneration of the brokers at a commission of 10 per cent of the sale price and a tenth interest In the consolidated property. At this stage the deal waa that the Mother Lode should he put In at $100,009 and the Kootenay Belle at $75,000 and that six-tenths of the (consolidated property should he sold for tho $180,000, the vendors dividing the remaining four fifths with brokers, the latterg share being reduced, iby consent later, to one-fourth of the four tenths.

NEW STANDARDS FOR FOOD IN CANADA OTTAWA, Oct, 21.—New food standards, prepared during the past year by Anthony McGill, chief analylst of the inland revenue department, assisted by experts working under him, are now before the cabinet council, and will probably be promulgated by an order-ln-councll this autumn. ■ The new standards so far prepared cover milk and its products, meats, and meat products and grain and grain products. After a month's advertisement the new standards will become law, and aa a result of clearer and more adequate definition of food standards, the department will >be In a much better position than heretofore to enforce the law respecting adulteration of food stuffs, and the sale of unwholesome or Impure food products. Up to the present one of the greatest handicaps ln this respect has been the Jack of any definite or adequate legal standards on wnlch to base prosecutions for manufacturing or selling fraudulent foods. Other standards for medicinal products, ete,, are now ln the course of preparation.

W. Cockle of Kusio, secretary-manager ot die exhibit, since Aug. 9 last, contains much of 'the best that the district produces. First Big Collection It may be mentioned, incidentally, that this Is the first occasion upou which an attempt has 'been made ou sucn a large scale, to get togetner a truly representative display. The efforts of Mr. Cockle wuo nas beeu abiy assisted by A. D. Emoiy, Fred A. Star- key and ina-ny members ot the boards or trade In the district, have beeu very successful but owing -to the size of the country which had 10 be covered and the scattered positions of the many ranches in the section represented the exhibit is not as large as had been hoped for. That it will do Kootenay honor and carry off a iair percentage of prizes at the great show, however, seems beyond question when the color, quality and commercial value of tiie apples is taken iut0 consideration. Thanks Growers "My only regret," said Mr, Cockle last night, "is that not more of the fruit growers In ihe district are'represented in the carload of fruit we are taking down to Vanoouver. Invitations have been sent, out by circular and ■through the medium of the press, asking all tiie growers to contribute fruit for competition in the various classes. We have succeeded very well where we have been able personally to visit th© growers but naturally In such an extensive district as West Kootenay it has been Impossible to reach every rancher by a personal visit, "I wish through the columns of The Daily News to express my very best thanks to the many fruit growers who have rendered valuable assistance in collecting ■the fruit which we are inking down t0 the coast to advertise Ihe Kootenay as one of the premier apple raising serious of the world." Mr. Cockle and R. B.

Display of Meda's "All the hafndsonie and deeply significant medals which British Columbia has won at the world's chief fruit exhibitions during the past five years will be adequa/ely displayed at the first Canadian National Apple show." said Mr. Scott. "These medals are about 75 In number and are emblematic of victories of which British Columbia has every reason to be proud In England, In Eastern Canada and In the prairie provinces.. Biggest In History "There is every reason to anticipate that the first Canadian National Apple show will be a huge success. Fourteen carloads of exhibits are already assured whereas the Spokane show of last year, heretofore the world's record fruit exhibition, had but 12 carloads. The forthcoming show at Vancouver It is now virtually assured will be the biggest apple show In the world's history, a very significant and praiseworthy fact when It Is taken Into consideration that thl» is British Columbia's 'first attempt In this. direction.

Wasson, city clerk and treasurer, with a broad smile, when asked how the taxes wore coming in. Never in Uie history of Nelson as a city have the taxes come In better than they have this fall, and an unusually ■ largo proportion of the rate-payers will j get the benefit of the rebate for prompt payment, which is operative till the and ! of this month.

The great indoor lacrosse game in Vancouver Tuesday, the first to be Been on the coast, resulted in an overwhelming defeat of the Shamrock team at the hands of the New Westminster players. The score at the finish was twenty-five to nine which is a pretty fair indication of the play. The game wbb fast and interesting to watch. On account of the limited space it ls a much easier proposition to score, as the result Indicates. The game was played with a cheap baseball which had been hammered into softness. It was very light and tbls lact handicapped the players who went into the game with the usual heavy sticks. Sandy Gray did not go to Vancouver and Buck Marshall made his initial appearance as goal keeper. He did some good work. Gibbons, at one time considered the star goal keeper of the coast, was at the other end of 'the building and so the magnitude of Buck's performance may be realized. Gibbons, however, had to contend against the fastest home ln existence —Pat Feeney, Len Turnbull and ■Grumpy Spring, all boring in on him, while Marshall was protected by Galbraith and Jimmy Gifford. The following were the teams: New Westminster—Goal, Buck Marshall; defence, Galbraith and Jim Gifford; centre, Pat Feeney; attack, Len Turnbull and Grumpy Spring. Vancouver—Goal, Gibbons; defence, •Matheson and Clarkson; center, •Green; attack, B. Murray and E. Murray.

The Nelson high school and the Kootenay Rugby club teams will meet in a practice match at tbe recreation grounds this afternoon. Play will commence at 2:30. O'CONNOR CANNED. ST. LOUIS, Oct, 21—Manager Jack O'Connor, of the St. Louis Browns, and Harry Howell, scout for the club, were released from all connection with the club tonight by President Robert L, Hedges. It is regarded as certain that either George Stalllngs, late manager of the New York Yankees, or George Stovall, first baseman of the Naps, will succeed O'Connor. In an official statement Hedges holds the Browns' leader guiltless of participation in the alleged favoritism shown Larry Lajole in last Sunday's double-header with Cleveland. The release of O'Connor and Howell, •Hedges says, is the result of widespread criticism of the men by the fans and the press. The opinion in baseball circles here tonight Ib that Hedges' action shows the strong hand of President Ben Johnson, of the American league, DR. ROLLER PUTS AWAY PERRELLI Bout Lasted Just Over 46 Minutes at Montreal—Dr. Roller Used Gotch Jactics. MONTREAL, Oct. 21—It took Dr. Roller of Seattle, just forty-six minutes jand thirty seconds to put Perrelli's shoulders to the mat at Sohraer Park Friday night. It was a great wrestling bout and both men were inclined to use their fists, the Italian even more so than Roller. However,, the men put up a good match which greatly pleased the crowd ot about three thousand, who >were present The wreBtling, however, was only part of the attraction, for before the stage was roped off and the mat placed In position, there was a presentation of cups to the National Lacrosse team. Quite a proportion of the crowd turned out for this part of the show. Members of tho team that won the National Lacrosse union championship and members of the executive of the club were given Beats In the front row on the stage. In front of the group of players was placed a table bearing the cups garlanded with flowers. In the second bout Roller came out stripped down to short trunks and iu his bare feet. There was less scrapping for the reason that Roller Beldom igave the Italian a chance to Btart anything. He was at him in Gotch style from the tap of the gong, and in the first two minutes it looked as if it was aU over with the other man. A clever bridge and then a roll just Baved hlra. Roller kept up his swift attack and soon got an arm scissor and a half-nelson changed to a bar. His weight on the Italian's chest did the rest. Before the end came Roller gave Perrelli a terrific toss to the mat when he seized him by one leg and twice swung him around in a complete circle. Perrelli dropped to the mat in a heap but squirmed away when Roller Jumped on him. HE EXPLAINS. PHILADELPHIA, Oct 21—In explaining how the driver's license was issued to Jack Johnson, Secretary Butler, of the A. A. A. said: "During my hbBence ln Philadelphia a white man appeared at my office for John Arthur Johnson. My clerk presumed that he wanted it for himself and issued the card, which he signed with a rbbber stamp of my signature. "As this license was obtained through false representation, it was withdrawn." SPORTING SPOTLIGHTS The absence of a residence rule in the inter-Provincial union has been the -main cause for the suspicion anent the honesty of the motives attracting some of the eastern stars to the rugby field. With a clause restricting the traveling propensities of the players in force there would be less scandal regarding their movements in the early part of the season. There is little room for doubt that certain pigskin-chasers have been "on the market" as it were. Not that they are looking for the coin ot the realm, but its equivalent, a better poBitlon carrying with it more glory than they would get, If they did not possess ability in the football line. This sort of thing Bavors strongly of professionalism, although it is winked at by the powers that be. EVIDENCE HEARD IN INTERPLEADER (Continued from Page One.) Martin, according to the evidence of both sides threw down the proposition to purchase six tenths of the consolidated property for $180,000, and in its place, ho took separate options on the Kootenay Belle and Mather Lode properties. In these deals, Warner had Black as an equal partner in the Mother Lode, while in the Kootenay Belle Black and Morrison had a half interest between them. The Kootenay Belle deal fell through, but McMartin took up his Mother Lode option or bond, which, was $75,000. The agreement ae to commdssion wag signed on Dec. 16 and in more legal form on Dec, 17, 1908. in New York. Black, verbally confirmed Warner's acts on Dec. 24. On Feb. 6 a memorandum was signed, in duplicate form with the agreement. Meantime the negotiations with McMartin were going on, the sale being finally consu- mated on Feb. 10, 1909. The matter of commission was discussed between Warner and aU three of the New York men, according to Mr. Warner's evidence, and the latter agreed to a revised plan of commission. The tenth interest was to be dropped as there was no longer any interest at all contemplated to be held back from McMartin, and the new del put in the two properties at $130,000 all told, or $75,000 for the Mother Lode and $65,- 000 for thf» Kootenay Belle, on which the New York men were to have 10 per cent. The failing of the Kootenay Belle deal reduced the commission, on tills basis to $7500. Commission Regularly Paid Mt. Loening testified that the com- miss'on had been regularly paid, ns the payments on the Mother Lode bond had been made, up till tiie final one, when be and bis associates attached the amount of the last payment. It came out in the evidence that originally the Final payment was to have heen $50,000. shared in equally by Warner and Black, but Warner discounted his $25,000 several months in advance, accepting $10,000 from McMartin. On the stand Mr. Warner sold the proper commission on his share would have been paid when it came due, on Jan 1, tf the brokers bad not made an attachment. The final $25,000 thus was coming to Black alone. In the case submitted hy the defense Mr. Davis constantly objected to going outside of the actual documents, and his lordship pretty much sustained this view. In proving the negotiations, Mr. Wragge, who drew and redrew the papers, gave evidence. The contention of the prosecution appeared to be that the original agreement relative to commission applied In full to the subsequent deal though the deal was totally different from that contemplated when the agreement was drawn. The contention of the defence appeared to he that the modifying of the deal so radically annui'ed the gree* ment. The amount of the plaintiffs' claim Is not stated in figures, but may vary from in the neighborhood of $17,000 to double that amount.

CRIPPEN TRIAL IS NEARING THE END ("Continued from Page One.) "Where do you suppose your wife got the money to pay for her voyage to America?" Mr. Mulr asked. "She always had plenty of money, I did not give her any, she threatened to leave several times but so far she had not carried the threats out." "The complaint your wife made on the night of the dinner party was most "unreasonable?" "I think it waa." "Dp you think that was sufficient to cause your wife to leave?" "I think it evidently had been pending a long time." "Had she any other cause for leaving?" "No other that I know of." "When she left, you set about to think how to cover up the scandal?" "Yes." "It involved you in a great deal of trouble?" "That has already been acknowledged." Counsel handed Crippen a letter written on March 20 from Hilldrop Crescent which suggested that LeNeve was leaving Hilldrop Crescent. Crippen was not sure whether she was living there at the time, but she had been off and on. "She came to live with me shortly before Easter. Fixing the Date. The chief justice: "We had better fix those dates now." Crlppen said: "The first time she came to live with me was on February 2. From that time on she was with me for two or three nights perhaps more, each week." He did not like to say when she had come to Btay permanently. "Mr, Jackson fixed March 12 as the date LeNeve ceased living at her house?" Crlppen: "1 won't dispute the date." "On the night of February 2, did LeNeve sleep at Hilldrop Crescent?" "She did." By the ohlef justice: "You might press him on that." By Mr. Mulr: "Are you sure of that?" "res." Mr. Muir read h letter addressed to the Martinnettta by Crippen on March 20 when LeNeve was living with bim, in which he said hiB wife was dangerously ill with pleuropneumonia which was why she had not been to see them. Mr. Mulr: "At the time you wrote that letter had you arranged to go to Dieppe with LeNeve for Easter?" After a pause, Crippen said, "Yes I had, I believe." "Did you want to wipe your wife off the slate before you left " "There was no question of the kind, I have already explained my statement that it was necessary to say something to stop all enquiries." "Did you want to announce your wife's death before starting on a holiday with LeNeve?" "I do not think It follows as logical sequence." Questioned regarding his wife's friends, Crippen was asked whether he thought of the pain to them In connection with the announcement of her death and replied that he did not think of them at all. Questioned regarding the return from Dieppe and whether he then wore mourning clothes, he could not say whether he wore mourning clothes, at that time, but he did afterwards. "You had to play the part of a bereaved husband?" "Yes," "Did you do it well." Crippen, smil- lngK 'I could not tell you." "When your wife's friends condoled with you on the loss of your wife, did you do it well?" "That's a queBtion you should ask them, I cannot say." "In a letter you wrote Dr. Burroughs you said you were nearly out of your mind owing to poor Belle's death." "That," said counsel, "was sheer hypocrisy. Crippen, "It Is already admitted." Crlppen Interrupts. Counsel quoted further from Crippen's letter which said he had received a oable announcing his wife's death which was a most awful shook. Crlppen, smiling and almost laughing, In* terrupted with:: "I don't see why you should keep on questioning me as to this which I have willingly admitted. I have told you they were lies," to whloh the judge said rather sternly: "That may be so, Mr. Crlppen, but this ls a Tery serious part of your case and you must really answer the questions, lies or not lies." By Mr. Mulr: "Then this awful shock was purely an imagination." "It was entirely." "How did you know your wife might not write to Dr. Burroughs." l'I did not think she would write to anybody." "Because she told you to cover up the scandal?" "I only Inferred she would not write." "Do yoli ask the jury to believe that not knowing but that your wife might write to the Martlnettis or Burroughs you told them she was dead'" "YeB." "Where did you think she waa." "In Chicago with Bruce Miller." Counsel called attention to letters Crippen wrote to relatives in America speaking of his wife's death, and asked how, If his wife had gone to America, he did not know Bhe might call on those relatives. Crippen answered that If she had gone with another man he did not think she would face her relatives. "These words," said counsel, "are a very elaborate series of misrepresentation to a number of persons. For whose sake were you going into this elaborate process?" "For the sake of both of us." "What did it matter?" "I did not wish my frifcutls to think I had treated her badly nor that she had left me," "What were you to save yourself then by telling theBe lies." "The scandal of my acquaintances." "What scandal was there ln the separation from your wife when you were living in open adultery with LeNeve?" "It was not so open as you seem to imagine." "You had treated your wife well, giving her money, furs and jewels and for four years had ceased to co-hablt with her. Then she had treated you with ingratitude and left you.| Why Beek to cover from scandal such a wife?" "I cannot explain any other way than I have done." The Cellar Floor. Counsel then passed on to the cellar of Hilldrop Crescent house where the Remains were found. Crlppen had been a tenant about five and half years but did not know whether during that time the floor had been disturbed. Sunday was about the only time he was at home whiie""*hiB wife would go out In the morning sometimes and not return till one or two next morning. He had been in the cellar. "You of course know that these remains were found in the cellar?" "I was told so by my solicitor when I returned to England." "As far as you know they could not have been put there while you were there?" "No." "Will you say it wbb impossible?" "I won't say It was impossible because there were times when we were away, during my absence in day time when my wife was also away." "You really thought you would be arrested?" "YeB." "Upon what charge?" "Suspicion." 'What crime did you anticipate you would be kept prisoner for? I do not -understand law enough to Bay. I have heard of people being arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the disappearance of other people." "Disappearance of other people?" "I cannot put it in the legal phrase for Vou." By the judge: "Nobody wants a legal phrase." Crlppen: "I thought I Bhould be held until the woman was found. If I could not produce the woman, Dew told me I should be in serious trouble. I knew also that it would put LeNeve ln a serious position and the only thing I could" think of waB taking her out ot the oountry." Mr. Mulr: "When you said to Miss Gurnoal 'If anything should happen give these envelopes to LeNeve,' had Vou made up your mind then." "No." "After that you went Into the cellar with Inspector Dew and stood there. Was lt after that you made up your mind?" "It waB next morning, after I had studied the whole matter over, after I had consulted LeNeve as to what she would like to do," "You thought you were in danger of 'arrest?" "That Is so." ■' "And so you fled the country?" "Yes." "In false names?" "Yes." 'Shaved off your mouBtache?" "Yes." "Left off wearing your glasses ln public?" "Yes." "Took LeNeve with you?" "Yes." "In a false name passing as your son?" "Yes." "You went to Antwerp and stayed in a hotel indoors all day?" "Oh, no, we went about ln the gardens." Enjoyed Themselves. "Did you enjoy yourselves?" "Certainly." "And did you sign the register in a false name?" "I do not remember signing the book at Antwerp, I signed the book at Brussels." . A copy of the register of the hotel at Brussels where Crlppen and LeNeve stayed was here produced and his lord- 'ship said it was signed John Robinson, merchant, aged 55 who had come from Vienna July 10, and was returning to Vienna. Crippen's companion was described as George Robinson, son, without profession, eighteen years old, residing at Quebec. , By the judge: "Is the second description that of LeNeve?" "Yes." Mr. Muir then questioned Crippen about the circumstances surrounding his arrest by Inspector Dew on board. Crlppen said he was very surprised to see Inspector Dew at Farther point, At "firBt he had not thought what charge could be made against him and when inspector Dew spoke he did not pay much attention as he was so confused at that time. He could not say therefore whether Inspector Dew told him then that he was arrested for murder or mutilation of his wife, Cora Crippen. Subeequently he was cautioned by a Canadian police officer and charged with the crime.

FOSTER Manager SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22. THE LATEST SCHOOL QUESTION Once more there Ib a "school question" In Canadian politics, though so far it is confined to Ontario. A large number of French Canadians have settled in the countieB adjacent to the southwestern boundary of the province, as well as ln the eastern counties. They have "bl-linguial" schools; that Ib the teachers are supposed to know both French and English and the pupils are supposed to be taught both. It ls stated that this haB worked out very much like "Hertzogism" In the Orange River. Teachers who possess a thorough knowledge of both languages so as to he able to speak both correctly and fluently are not available ln sufficient numbers at the salaries paid fn the elementary rural schools of that province. The result is said to be that the teachers as a rule have a very Imperfect knowledge of English and also of many other subjects to be taught. Obviously this is bad for the children, especially for the children of English speaking families. That does not seem to be a matter of much concern to the "Nationalists" of Quebec who are quite willing to sacrifice the welfare of other people's children,-—and perhaps, in some cases, even of their own,—on the altar of their sectionallst sentiment. But it is a matter of concern to Bishop Fallon of the diocese of London. The Globe thinks that the bi-linguial system should be continued because the children of French Bpeaking families cannot be taught in English until they have learned that language, and therefore they must he taught in French. That is plausible only at firBt glance. What do children learn when they first go to school? Not advanced subjects but elementary reading and arithmetic. fThey do not learn more than a few words or numbers In a day, and in practical experience it Ib found that it is quite feasible to give this teaching in English, so that they are learning English at the Bame time that they are learning to read, and as they become more advanced they are able to study the other subjects in English also. The experiment has been thoroughly tried both ways in Winnipeg, where there is a large population of children who hear no English in their homes. It has alBo been tried both ways in American cities where similar conditions prevail. The concensus of opinion is that better progress is made by having the teaching in English from the beginning. That Is not theory; it Ib a fact demonstrated every day in the Winnipeg schools. But even If having all the teaching in English involved a little less progress in learning geography or some similar Bubject, there would still be a clear gain.

THOMSON K-% Bootcseil»r and Stationer It may be that a conference between a dozen leading politicians will effect all these revolutions quite promptly and smoothly, yet it hardly seems probable. If Mr. Balfour agreed to a revolution, would It follow that all those who are concerned but who have not been admitted to the conference would agree to it too? If Mr. Asquith agreed to a policy of tariff preference, would his followers accept It? After all the eminent gentlemen who are taking part In the conference are not czars or dictators in their respective parties. They can lead only as far as their followers are willing to go. Their recommendations will of course have great weight hut only within certain limits. They cannot really make agreements binding on their respective parties; all they can do is to agree on what they will advise their political friends to accept. If they agree to too much the agreement will amount to nothing because it will not be ratified by their political allies or followers.

The people of 'Brandon, which Is a suburb of Slocan City, are talking waterworks. now arrived for something to be done in this direction. I-think that Creston, In particular, should have a good fruit growers organization and there are several other districts, such as Kaslo, to which the same remark applies. Must Have Competent Manager. "When these organizations are formed one of the most important points to be considered is the selection of a good manager. He should be, first of all, a business man. Secondly he should make efforts to become thoroughly acquainted with the markets in which the fruit of his association are disposed of. "He Bhould also arrange to keep in touch with the cars while en route to the point to which they are consigned so that on receipt of daily wires giving prices in the different markets he may if desirable switch the cars to another point where a better price could be realized. "In forming fruitgrowers associations only men who are actually interested in fruit growing should be admitted. It Ib not advisable to get outside men in either as members or on the executive. Most Suitable Varieties. Asked for his opinion as to the varieties of apples moat suitable from all points of vfew for the district Mr. Denney stated that he thought Ontarlos, Wagners, Gravenstelns, MclntoBhes and Wealthies were by far the hest. Boosts Kaslo. Kaslo Is certain to become a great Gravenstein centre," he remarked, Some of these apples I saw while in that district were the equal of any that could be raised in any part of the continent. They were magnificent." And CreBton, "I was astounded at the acreage of land available for fruit growing at Creston," he continued, "that will, beyond doubt be one of the largest apple producing districts ln West Kootenay within the next few years. • Mr. Denney, who has been acting as a packing demonstrator for the provincial government, leaves this morning with Mr. Cockle for Vancouver where he will assist in arranging the West Kootenay exhibit at the first Canadian National Apple show. FRUITGROWERS MUST ORGANIZE, HE SAYS Oregon Apple Expert Says Time Arrived When Associations Are Necessary in Kootenay, "After visiting many of the fruit growing sections of WeBt Kootenay the need that strikes me most forcibly ls that for fruit growers associations," said R. B. Denney of Beaverdale, Ore., and late of the Oregon Agricultural college at Corvallis, last night. "On the other Bide of the International boundary line difficulties in the advantageous disposal of the produce of the orchards was experienced for some years just as ls the case in Kootenay today. This difficulty has been entirely obviated, however, In such'sections as Hood river, North Yakima, Wenatchee and Rogue river by the formation of fruit growers associations. Advantage of Co-operation. "Tiie trouble with the Individual method of selling fruit or any other produce Is that the large markets ln the east or middle west do not pay much attention to small shipments; again, In shipping a few cases the expense Is relatively a great deal heavier than when shipping in carload lots. In every case where an association has been established the district concerned has made wonderful progress as a fruit growing centre. The growers have made better profits, the consumer has received fruit of higher grade and the land has risen In value. "As I suggested before the buyer or commission man does not pay as much attention to the shipments of an individual grower as he does to those of an association. The reason for thfs is obvious. Then another important point about an association Is that the growers are able to purchase their homes, spraying material, paper and other supplies, more cheaply owing to the association being able to buy in larger quantities and consequently to better advantage. "The association can also see that the regulations as to packing are enforced and that the fruit ls kept up to grade. This materially assists the growers In obtaining good prices. "Up to the present time there has not beep a great deal of need for associations ln the Kootenay owing to the comparatively small acreage of fruit lands-i under cultivation. But the time baa CRIPPEN TRIAL IS NEARING THE END (Continued from Page Three.) By Mr. Mulr: "Up to that time did you believe your wife was alive?" "I did." "Did you put any question to Inspector Dew whether your wife had been found?" "I put no question at all, I made no reply." By the judge: "Do you really ask the jury to understand that without your knowledge or your wife's knowledge, some time during the past five years those remains could have heen found Jhere," "I don't say lt Ib probable, but it is possible." The PyJamaB. Crippen was next confronted with the pyjamas which played an important part in the case. He said they were his and that he bought them ahout a year ago at Jones Bros. Shown another pair of pyjama trousers not so new he said It was part of a suit he had bought previously. Mr. Mulr cautioned him not to hurry as that was very important. Crippen could not say when he had bought the pyjamas of which the trousers remained but It was shortly after he went to Hilldrop Crescent ln 1905 or lflOfi. "What became of the jacket?" "I could not tell you, worn out probably." "Did not your wife buy those pyjamas for you at Jones Bros, in January, 1909?" By the judge: "Listen because it is very important to yourself." "I would not say she did not buy some, she might have bought some and I some." By the judge: "Did not your wife buy you three pairs of pyjamas at Jones Bros, sale In January, 1909?" "I won't Bay she did." "Will you say she did not?" "I won't." By Mr. Muir: "Did not your wife buy you these suits, one of them minus a jacket on January 5,1909?" "She bought some, I don't know whether these are the ones or not." By the judge: "Two minutes ago you said your wife never bought you pyjamas, you always bought them yourself. Now you have said your wife did buy some. Which is true " "PerhapB I should hot have been so positive but should have said she might have bought some." Crlppen was now confronted with the piece of pyjama jacket found with the remains. He was asked to compare it with the pattern of the trousers referred to. "Is it the same?" aBked counsel. Crippen replied it was very similar. TO SPEAK IN NEW HAMPSHIRE PORTSMOUTH, N. II., Oct. 21.—Colonel Theodore Roosevelt Is expected In New Hampshire tomorrow to speak In behalf of .Robert R. $Bass, the republican candidate for governor. Mr. Baas waa nominated by the progressive wins of the republican party and Colonel RooBevelt ls keenly interested in his success. The candidates for state office are hopeful that the visit of tbe former president will have the effect of healing the breach in tiie republican ranks and thereby insure the success of the party at the polls next month. The split between the progressives and stanrlpat elements of the republican party Is probably more pronounced In New Hampshire than in any other section nf New England. It began four years ago. when, after a heated campaign, Winston Churchill, the novelist, and a leader of the progressive faction, was defeated for the gubernatorial nomination by Charles M. Floyd, the machine candidate. Mr. Floyd failed of election by the people, and was made governor by the legislature. Two yeara ago the progressives were again defeated and their success this year has but tended to widen the breach between the two elements. Because of the difference of opinion between the rival repuhllcan factions the democrats are much encouraged, and with a united party back of their candidate the leaders hope that they will be able to place New Hampshire In the democratic column this year.

I have tried many other remedies, but have never found any better." JOSEPH FRANKOWICK, 854 Trombly Av., Detroit, Mich.

It is that these three suits before you, one of them incomplete, were manufactured ln November, 1908, and that the cloth of which they were made never came Into existence before November, 1908, It is still possible to call evidence on this point.

CRIPPEN TRIAL IS NEARING THE END (Continued From Page Four.) Crlppen—I can only say I do not think It Is possible to call evidence about It. it may .be possible, but to my mind It does not seem possible. Mr. -luir—The cloth from which all these things before you were made, was made ln November, 1908. The jacket ln the jar is part of the same cloth sold by Jones Bros. If that Is right the jacket must have got beside the remains since November, 1908. Mr. Tobln for ithe defence rose apparently to make objection. The judge—I do not think Mr. Mulr has gone too far; but I do not think it necessary to do more than he has done. This Is not the time for argument. By Mr. Mulr; "Do you wish to alter your answer?" Crippen: "No." Departure From London Counsel next led Crippen to his departure from London. He said he had made up his mind to go away on July 9. the morning Inspector Dew called. He thought there were suspicions against him, as a result of which he might >be in jail for months, tili his wife was found, Mt. Mulr: "Was it fair to LeNeve to say she knew nothing about it—that ls the murder of your wife?" "I do not say anything of the circumstances; I have already given my answer," By the judge: "You had told her that your wife had run away and that she had died. What do you mean by it?" Orippen: "I referred to her disappearance and to the lies which I had told which I knew would throw me under suspicion from what Dew told me. I told her nothing else beyond the bare faots, that my wife had disappeared and was dead." By Mr. Muir: "And that is what you meant?" "That is what I referred to when I said It." Story to LeNeve "You said nothing about suspicious circumstances to her—how did you persuade her to cut her hair and dress herself as a boy?" "Have I not just explained to you that I explained to her that the statement involved her in describing as it did, that she had lived with me and that there would be a scandal about it, and that her own folks would turn against her. I also told her that Dew had said there would be trouble for me If I didn't produce Mrs, Crippen and the only way was to go to another place, where we could be alone and could live a new life. That Is all I told her." Referring to ithe card on which Crlppen had written his Intention to jump overboard and which Crlppen stated was part of a plot to deceive the po lice at Quebec, counsel asked Crippen whose idea it was that the card should be written. Crlppen said that the quartermaster suggested that he should leave behind something showing that he was going to Jump overboard. The language of It waa entirely Crippen's. The quartermaster handed Crlppen a letter in the wheelhouse in which he sold the captain knew -who Orippen was and that the police would arrest him at Quebec; if he liked, however, he would stow him away and smuggle him ashore at Montreal. That letter was not signed and the quartermaster took It away from him directly he had read it, "He seemed afraid to trust .We.with 't" commented Crlppen, who did not know the quartermaster's name but could identify him If he saw him. Mr. Mulr: "And you in-tended the Fads for Weak Women Nine-tenth! of ell tbe •ickneu of women ft dot to job* denafenwat er db> esse of the orfins distinctly feminine.

"I was not going through any horors." Dread of Arrest "What horrors did you mean the police to understand you were going through every night?" "Dread of arrest." "Had you arranged the matter with LeNeve?" Yes; she was to remain on board and carry on the pretense." "Now that card looks as if you were confessing your guilt of some offense." "I should not have p;it tba* interpre- •tatlon on it; probably you do." By the Judge: "Answer Mr. Muir's question." Crippen: "I do not know how I could answer it very well." Mr. Mulr: "You have given your explanation of that card In the witness stand for the first time?" Crlppen, Interrupting: "I could not give It before as I was not In the witness box." Answering further questions, Crippen said he saw hi8 solicitor on the day following his arrival In London and he had not given evidence ln the police court because he did not know he oould have done so had he wished. He had left the whole question of defense in the hands of his solicitor for he knew no effort had been made to find the quartermaster. "You understand if your wife were found you would at once 'be acquitted?" "Oh, rather." Knowledge of Hyosclne Crippen was then ciosely cross-examined as to his knowledge of hyosclne, which he claimed was a legitimate drug for nervous cases. He said he had first prescribed hyosclne early •tn January, 1910. He had used one- third of that purchased on Jan. 19 and left the remaining two thirds in his office, though it could not be found. He admitted ithe purchase because he wanted to prepare medicine for obsti- nate cases. By his lordship: "Returning home on "Feb. l, did you ascertain that night whether the trunk or clothes had been taken, from the house?" "I did not miss anything." "You took no steps at all until July 8 to trace your wife?" "No." "You did not expect a charge at all against you?" "No." "Except this, that you described as a series of lies, you had nothing to disturb your mind at all?" "Nothing at all." "What charge Is it you feared?" "1 did not think of any specific charge. I thought I might be held until my wife was found. I do not know the law. I had been reading and thought that the case." The cross-examination then closed, Not a Scar Dr, Turn-bull, director of the pathological department of the London hospital, examined by Mr. Tobin, counsel for the defence, said that the mark on the skin could not be a scar because of certain structures which he hud found within Its area. There were two groups of hair follicles and there were *wo small subaceous glands, Adjournment was then made for luncheon, On resumption of the court Dr. Turn- hull had again before him on a dinner Plate the much discussed pieces of skin and flesh. As he turned them over with his forceps he expressed the view that they might have come from some other part of the body than the abdomen. He did not see any marks of Incision connected with an operation. Re-examined, he sold he had never swerved in his opinion that the mark In question was not a scar; the mark was clear, horny and transparent In character, which was against its character as a scar. The witness explained his view to the jury, taking the piece of skin to the witness box. Cross-examined 'by Mr. Mui- for the prosecution. Dr. Turnbull said he had been promised clearly before he gave his opinion that he would not be called as a witness as he was of the opinion thoit the skin came from the lower part of the wall of the abdomen, Supports Defence Dr. R. C. Ward, at one time pathologist of the London hospital, expressed the opinion that the mark was not a «car. The skin miight have come from the abdominal wall, and probabl: did, but the evidence was insufficient to say for certain. Dr. Winter Blythe, author of a work on poison, supported the cose of the defence, which then concluded the evidence given on behalf of Crippen. The chief Justice, jury and counsel then adjourned to another court for the purpose of making a 'microscopical examination of the piece of skin on which the mark is said to have been found. Sale of Pyjamas On resumption, a buyer of Jones Bros. Identified the pyjamas as being delivered by the firm at Hilldrop Crescent on July 15.

Reply for Defence On resumption Mr. Tobin arose to reply for the defence. He adhered to every one of the arguments of his former address. LeNeve had slept at Hilldrop Crescent on Feb. 2. Was it conceivable that the night before Crippen had taken the life of his wife? His flight was an act of folly, hut no proof of his guilt. Suspicion was not enough. The jury must be satisfied that the flesh in evidence was the flesh of a woman. They must, be persuaded beyond jail reasonable doubt that the bits of flesh found in the cellar were those of the woman who was once Delle Elmore. Strange things have happened in legal history. In the course of time Elmore might In truth appear again. No adequate motive for the crime had been put forward. He did not plead for mercy, He was oppressed with anxiety that the jury should not be able by w'll power to ex- pell the poison and prejudice which must have entered their minds, by reason of tlte lies and folly of what had appeared in the newspapers. AM that he pleaded for was that they give a verdict with minds unclouded by anv preconceived prejudice. His lordship in adjourning tbe court said that the book mentioned by Crlppen. if found, would lie at Mr. Tobin's disposal at the resumption of proceedings, Buy on Baker Street Now is the time to get in before the rush comes.

BB tht Bail? $x\o** SATURDAY OCTOBER 22 Rueteii Sage'i advice to young men: "Put your money In real estate near a growing city." Money Making Investments "The cheapest way to acquire expert ence Is to take advantage of the experience of others." VANCOUVER and NEW WESTMINSTER are destined to be one great city and the wonderful development now going on ensures the junction in a very short time. With the tremendous city building developments In tbe vicinity of the two cities, property lying between them offers an investment that cannot be equalled In British Columbia. Vancouver building permits for the first nine months of 1910 were $9,000,000 as againBt |7,000,000 for all of 1909. That surely spells progress to the knowing ones. Read what the Vancouver Province has to say of New Westminster on Oct, 15th: This has been a good week ln New Westminster for city property. A large number of sales of residential properties liave been made, in many canes the transfers being those of fine homes. The buyers in not a few instances have been Vancouver people, who have purchased with the Intention of living here. City property in comparison with Vancouver is ridiculously low in price and this ls gradually beginning to be realized with the result that city property is finding a readier sale. No one section of the city appears to be favored for thla class of buying. For business property there are many enquiries and it Is expected that some large deals will be closed next week. Among other announcements of the week was that of the proposed building of a (150,000 theatre building on Columbia street, with stores underneath tne theatre. The project has advanced to that stage where plans have been drawn and are now under consideration. The cry for houses to rent ls heard on an sides and every real estate office is daily besieged by people who have found U almost Impossible to secure suitable dwellings. And this despite the fact that there has been an unprecedented amount of building ln the city this year, houses being erected In all sections. On Eighth avenue alone there are thirty houses being constructed in one row. The scarcity of houses has brought the Inevitable and arrangements are now under way for the enrly erection of at least two large apartment houses, Both will be situated close to the business center. On Tine street fifteen houses In one block are be.ng built. Improved Car Service Strong pressure is now being made to have the B. C. Electric Railway Company improve its city street car service, giving more lines and a Quicker service. It Is argued that much building ln the upper portion of the city has been delayed waiting for better car service. If the company accedes to the request of the citizens there will be a tremendous amount of building on the hill. Certain differences existing between the company and the city are oonsiderCd to have held back the Inauguration of this improved service. These are now In a fair way to be adjusted and lt can only be a matter ot a short time until an announcement ls made of the commencement of work on the city car lines. The Improved city service with the extensions to Hillside and Lulu Island, which the company have promised to undertake soon, mean progress such as the Royal City never saw before.—Vancouver Province, October 15. We have a choice subdivision situated on 3rd avenue, Burnaby adjoining the city limits of New Westminster just four blocks from 8th avenue, referred t0 above and overlooking the Fraser Mills Lumber company's plant, the B.C.

If your meals don't fit comfortably, or you feel bloated after eating, and you believe It is the food which fills you; If -what little you eat lies like a lump of lead on your stomach; if there Is difficulty in breathing after eating, eructations of sour, undigested food and acid, heartburn, brash or a belching of gas, you can mako up your mind that you need something to stop food fermentation and cure Indigestion. To make every bite of food yol eat aid ln the nourishment and strength of your body, you must rid your Stomach of poisons, excessive acid and stomach gas, which sours your entire meal—interferes with digestion and causes so many sufferers of Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, Biliousness, Constipation, Griping, etc. Your case Is no different—you are a stomach sufferer, though you may call it by somo other name; your real and only trouble Is that which you eat does not digest, but quickly ferments and sours, producing almost any unhealthy condition. A case of Pape's Diapepsin wilt cost fifty cents at any Pharmacy here, and will corivince any stomach sufferer flvo minutes after taking a single dose that Fermentation and Sour Stomach is causing the misery of Indigestion. No matter If you call your trouble Catarrh of the Stomach, Nervousness or Gastritis, or by any other name—always remember that a certain cure ls waiting at any drug store the moment you decide to begin Its use. Pape's Diapepsin wilt regulate any out- of-order Stomach within five minutes, and digest promptly, without any fuss or discomfort, all of any kind of food you eat.

"I had doctored for over two years with many different specialists, but could find little relief for what they named Bright's disease. I was so weak and run down that I could not get up from a chair without supporting myself with both hnnds. I would leave my bed each night with the frequency of urination, which was scant and scalding, highly colored and at times contained particles of blood. My whole system had become so weakened and run down that I could scarcely walk. 1 was advised by a friend to try Booth's Kidney Pills. They seemed to go to the cause of the trouble and gave me quick relief, i continued with Booth's Kidney Pills and was soon rid of my suffering. The urinary disorders were corrected, nnd I am now able to enjoy a night's rest without being disturbed.

The opera house was again filled to tbe doors last evening to witness a charming comedy, "Mlsa Hobbs," admirably presented by Miss Verna Felton and the Allen Players who, during their present engagement here of a week, will greatly add to the popularity they attained last season, by the finished way in which they present most delightful comedy dramas. "Miss Hobbs" Is a satire on the "women's right" woman, ending, of course, ln the complete triumph of the blind god and the utter destruction of the "Principles" enunciated by "Miss Hobbs" at the commencement of the Btory, Tbe plot is one of the lightest, but throughout there were many mirth-provoking scenes and the winsome leading lady, moat charmingly and becomingly gowned, particularly In the last act, made the most of every situation. Mrs. Allen, as usual, carried the audience with her right along and MIbs Oreen as "Mrs. Kingsearle" deserves special word of commendation. Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Dale all rendered most efficient support and the play was carefully and artistically staged. The company fully deserve the generous patronage bestowed upon them by Nelson theatre-goers, and they will undoubtedly play to crowded houses during the -balance of their week's engagement. At the matinee this afternoon "Miss Hobbs" will be repeated and this evening ."The Three of TJs," a new comedy-drama with some fine emotional scenes, will be presented. In response to repeated requests MIbb Felton has consented to play "Zaza" on Monday evening, where the brilliant lead- lng_lndy's great dramatic trlump'ii here The Gift Season is Fast Approaching And our efforts to procure a suitable assortment of up-to-date jewelry, novelties, china and silverware has been crowned with great success. you i Our stock Is larger >-ud a better assortment of the very articles you desire for your gifts than ever before.
