Detailed Contracts Awarded
VANCOUVER, B.C.; July 6—The
Northern Construction Co. of Winnipeg
. and P. Welch of Spokane, contractors
for the building of the 163 mile section
of the Canadian Northern railway between Hope ■ and Kamloops, have
awarded sub-contracts as follows:
Palmer Bros. & Henning of Vancouver, Hope to Tale, 14 miles; Barnes &
Jordan, Spokane, Yale east 14 miles;
George Chow, Spokane, 5 1-2 miles;
George  Cunningham  & Co., Tacoma,

11 miles; B. A. Griffin & Welch, Spokane, 19 miles to Lytton; Grant, Smith
6 Co., Seattle, Lytton   to   Spence's
Bridge, 23 miles; Twohy Bros., Portland, Spence's Bridge, east 41 miles;
Grant, Smith & Co., 60 miles to Kamloops.
The work will prove the heaviest
since the construction of the C.P.R.
through the Rockies and Selklrks and
will cause an expenditure of from $15,-
000,000 to $18,000,000. The grade will
have to be blown out of solid rock
along steep banks and the canyon of
. the Fraser river. In all three miles of
tunnels will have to be driven, two having lengths of over 2,000 feet.
The contractors have already wired
for their outfits and three weeks will
Bee the construction camps along the
route. Owing to the conditions of the
country difficulty will be experienced
in securing camp sites. A majority of
these camps will be located on the
C.P.R. or opposite side of the river,
which will be spanned at frequent intervals by wire suspension bridges to
facilitate the transportation of equipment and supplies. Two years is the
period assigned for the completion of
this big undertaking.

Ten Thousand Men from Pacific Coast to Aid in Harvesting Prairie Crop
WINNIPEG, July S—The Canadian
Pacific Is rousing to a sense of its
responsibility In harvesting what at
the present time promises to be the
200,000,000 bushel crop of the Canadian
prairie west. It was stated this morning at the company's offices that a
number of enquiries had been telegraphed to large employers of labor all
over western Canada, asking whether
they could spare men.
Not Encouraging
Answers received to date show that
the labor situation Is not encouraging.
Instead of being able to spare men.
employers say they have not enough to
meet their normal requirements. It Is
possible, though, that an altogether
novel experiment will be made of
bringing in from 7,000 to 10,000 men
from British Columbia points, mainly
from Vancouver. It has been pointed
out to Sir William Whyte, that owing
to the exceptional labor conditions prevailing at Vancouver,- a large number
of men are out of work. The Canadian
Pacific has been asked to grant the
same cheap harvesters' fares from the
coast as are offered from eastern Canadian points. There 1b little doubt but
that these will be conceded and that
the prairie west in Its hour of need
will thus get help from the Pacific
province. Rates will be extended to
Seattle and all points In that territory reached by the Canadian Pacific.

connected with building.
It Is anticipated that there will be
some Interesting discussion at the
meeting and the hall is likely to be

Arrange to Facilitate Lake Shipments-
Freight for Trout Lake Must be
Sent to Sheds
In order to facilitate the handling of
freight to and from Kootenay lake
points John Hamilton, local freight
agent for the C.P.R. announces that in
future a wharfinger will be in charge
of the city wharf from 7 o'clock is the
morning to 5 o'clock daily except Sundays.
Mr. Hamilton in a circular letter
says; "Shippers should arrange to get
their freight for lake points to the
wharf aa early as possible, In order
that shipments may be forwarded the
same day, as we cannot undertake to
get shipments away promptly unless
shippers co-operate .and deliver their
freight at the wharf at least 30 minutes
before the steamer Balls.
"It Is Important that freight for the
Trout lake district should be sent to
the freight sheds, Instead of to the
wharf."

State Tour of Four Days-
Lords Dispose of Veto
Bill Clause
LONDON, July 6.—Communications
regarding Germany's action in Morocco
are still passing among the British,
German and French governments, but
little Is divulged beyond the fact that
Great Britain made it clear that she
intends faithfully to fulfill her treaty
obligations toward France. Premier
Asquith had promised a statement in
the house of commons today, 'but
when the question came up Mr. Asquith
had to admit that negotiations were
still in a state of flux. He added: "I
wish it clearly understood that the
government considers that a new situ-
tion has arisen in Morocco wherein It
is possible that future developments
may affect BritiBh interests more directly than has hitherto been the case.
We are confident that diplomacy will
find a solution and in the part which
we will take therein, we will have due
regard for the protection of those
interests and the fulfillment of our
treaty obligations toward France."
There is no truth in reports of a
split in the cabinet over Morocco affairs.

Ireland to Welcome Royalty.
DUBLIN, July fi.—All Dublin, and in
truth, all Ireland, is on the qui vive
in anticipation of the coming of the
king and queen. Crowds are pouring
in from all points, and it is estimated-
that the normal population of Dublin,
about 350,000, will be swollen to 1,000,-
000 by Saturday, the day on which
their majesties will make their entry
Into the city.
The royal visit to Dublin will extend
over four daya. The official arrangements are calculated to keep their
majesties busy almost from the hour
of their arrival until their departure.
The date of departure falls on July 12,
the day the Ulster Orangemen hold
their great annual celebration. Some of
the leaders among the Orangemen
have not been slow to take offense at
the king departing from the country
on that anniversary, and have petitioned him, Inatoad, to visit Ulster's capital,
Belfast. As all the arrangements for
the royal visit were concluded months
ago, however, It was impossible to make
any change In the Itinerary.
Their majeaties are expected to arrive at Kingstown on the royal yacht
Victoria and Albert early Saturday
morning. They will land at Victoria
wharf at about 10.30, and will be received by the Lord Lieutenant and
Countess of Aberdeen. On their arrival at Dublin castle the king and
queen will be received by the lord
lieutenant bearing the sword of state.
The appartmenta which their majeaties
will occupy at the castle have been
completely refurniahed and redecorated for the royal visit. A new and
much-needed supper room has been
built at the back of the state apartments. The additions and alterations
have allowed a room with a beautifully
decorated celling, which hitherto was
not available, to be added to the viceroy's residential apartments. During
the royal visit it will be utilized ns a
small dlnfng room.
On the afternoon of their arrival
their majesties will leave the castle
and proceed to the Royal College of
Science for the opening ceremony.
Afterward they will be escorted to
Trinity college, where an address will
be read, to which his majesty will make
a reply. Leaving Trinity college, the
king and queen will go to the Phoenix

INVITES OHIO
EDITORS HERE
Publicity    Commissioner   .Commences
Campaign to Bring Two Hundred
Newspaper Men  Here
Seeing in the visit to western Canada
of the 200 Ohio editors an opportunity
to obtain publicity for the Kootenays
and at the same time to provide the
American newspaper men with the most
attractive trip that could be found on
the continent, H. H. Currie, publicity
commissioner last night dispatched a
telegram to the Ohio Editorial association Inviting the party, or a section of
it, to visit tho Kootenays during the
first fortnight, in August.
With the object of making the Invitation more forcible Mr. Currie sent
a letter to all the boards of trade of
the interior and the coast suggesting
that they endorse the invitation and
secure if possfble an extension of the
itinerary of the party. The telegram
to the prospective visitors was as follows:
"Ohio Editorial association, care the
Plain Dealer, Cleveland, O.—Apropos
news dispatch, 200 Ohio editors tour
three prairie provinces first fortnight
August, Kootenay district, British Columbia cordially Invites you extend itinerary include Canadian Switzerland,
or divide party latter portion of tour
same end. Resources unapproached,
scenery unrivalled, await inspection.
Seconding invitations follow. Wire reply Nelson Publicity Bureau."
Following are extracts from the letter sent to the various boards of trade
interested in securing a visit from the
party:
"In the above wire I did not feel entitled to speak for more than the Kootenay, but I have no doubt all portions
of the province will second the invitation nnd will gladly co-operate in securing, if possible, an extension of the
itinerary in question so as to cover
British Columbia from the Alberta
border to the coast, whether of the entire party or of a representative part
of it
Accordingly I would ask your board
if in favor of this move to wire an invitation on behalf of your own locality.
I am addressing this letter to all the
boards of trade of the interior and.the
coast. If all net, I think we should be
successful in attaining our object. The
value of the visit of the Ohio editors
in the way of publicity, doeB not require discussion.
R. K Scarlett, acting district passenger agent, is co-operating with the
publicity commissioner nnd has wired
(o Winnipeg for the itinerary of the
party ,and Fred A. Starkey, president
of the Associated Boards of Trade, has
lready seconded Mr, Currle's invitation. The Kcotenny Press association
has also acted.

TRAINS HELD TO

News of Attack in Hull Will
Be Signal for Rush of
Reinforcements
OTTAWA, July 6—The Evening Journal says that grave trouble in the capital is evidently anticipated by Orangemen when they parade on July 12.
It has been learned that Orangemen
who intend going to Pembroke and
other nearby towns on the twelfth, are
making arrangements with railway
companies to leave excursion trains,
which take them to these places all day
at various points, at which celebrations
are being held. The object of this is
that at the first intimation that their
brethren in Hull are in difficulty, the
Orange parades at these places will
be called off and thousands of Orangemen will be rushed to Hull as reinforcements.
The sane heads of both Orangemen
and Catholics are finding it difficult
to see how they will prevent something very nearly like a second "Battle
of the Boyne."

NOT SUFFICIENTLY PAID
Great   Effort   Being   Made   to   Include
Every   Resident  of Wheat  City
In Census
BRANDAN, Man., July 6—Every possible effort is being made by Census
Commissioner Bawden, who is in
charge of the work here to include in
tho count every person In this district.
Since Mr. Bawden bas opened his office In the evenings at the commercial
bureau, he has a large number of
names of persons who have been missed by the enumerators in different
parts of the city. The complaint, is
general among the enumerators that
the price paid, five cents per name,
is entirely inadequate in this country
and most of those who have been on
the work would have declined it had
they known the difficulties surrounding it.

HOKE   SMITH   FOR   SENATE.
ATLANTA, Ga., July G.—The senatorial situation is attracting much attention with the near approach of the
date when the Georgia legislature will
choose a successor to Senator Terrell
in the United States senate. The balloting will begin next Tuesday and all
signs point to a spirited contest. Senator Terrell, who was appointed to fill
the seat of the late Senator Clay until
the legislature could choose his successor, is a candidate for election to
the full term of six years. The leading
candidate, however, appears to be Hoke
Smith, who was secretary of the interior under President Cleveland and
who has just been Inaugurated for the
second time as governor of Georgia.
Governor Smith, it is understood, has
long aspired to a seat in the United
States senate and his supporters are
now preparing to make a strong fight
for his election. On the other hand, the
anti-Smith element, which includes
- many prominent politicians in all sections of the state, will leave no stone
unturned to prevent his election. A
number  of  other   candidates   for   the
toga are receiving more or leaa attention. One of those whom It Is believed
could make a formidable showing
should he decide to make an active
fight is Pleasant A. Stovall, the Savannah editor. "Tom" Watson, the former
Populist leader; W. A. Covington, one
of the authors of the state prohibition
law, and several others have announced

CANNOT CURE
WITHOUT REST
Doctors   Who    Have Made   Study of
Tuberculosis Advise That It Should
Be Made a Business.
That no consumptive can hope for a
cure of his disease without following
the most rigid routine with regard to
rest is the conclusion of four interesting articles in the Journal of Outdoor
Life, for June, by Prof. Frederick S.
Lee, of Columbia university, New York;
Drs. Lawrence Brown and F H. Heise
of ihe Adriondack Cottage sauitorium
Trudeau, N. Y., and Dr. Joseph H.
Pratt of Boston, and William H. Rosa
of Steven's Point, Wis.
Professor Lee, writing on the subject, "The Physiology of Exercise and
Rest," shows by experiments on dissected frogs the way in which excer-
cise tires the muscles, and in fact, all
the organs of the body. He says:
Must Have Rest.
"There is no known antidote for fatigue, unless it be rest, and all that
rest implies. Sleep allows the reparative process of rest to be preformed
most quickly and completely. A moderate) degree of fatigue, or even a considerable degree when not too often
incurred, is not detrimental to a
healthy body, and is even to be advised. The healthy body 1b provided
with great recuperative powers, and
does not rapidly succumb to even excessive demands on its energy. But it
should be allowed the proper condition
for recuperation, and that condition is
adequate rest. There is danger when
the fatigue of one day's labor Is not
eliminated before the next day's work
is begun. The effect may then be
cumulative, the tissues may be in a
continued state of depression, and the
end my be disastrous.
Drs. Brown and Heise in an article
on 'Properly Regulated Rest and Exercise in Pulmlnary Tuberculosis," hold
that the action of the poisonous germs
of the disease on the body is very
similar to that of over-exercise. The
poisonous irritation caused by the
germs gives the organs and tissues of
the body a double load to carry. They
emphasize the Importance of rest In
the treatment of tuberculosis, but also
Insist that properly regulated exercise
Is very necessary.
Dr. Pratt, who was founder of the
first church tuberculosis class in the
United States in the Emmanuel church
in Boston, claims that in the treatment
of tuberculosis absolute rest, even in
bed, must be extended over a period
of months, before the consumptive
should take any exercise.
Make it a Business.
Mr. Ross, who is himself a cured
consumptive, and a writer of considerable prominence, holds that unless resting becomes a business to the tuberculosis patient, he might as well give
up his fight for health. "The day's
work should consist of rest," he says,
"rest should be considered as the reward of a good day's work, like the
evening of a slippered ease to the tired
business man at the end of the day."
BUILDING  STATISTICS OF
NELSON  ARE   PUBLISHED
Interesting   Figures  of   May   Returns-
Activity In Building Exceeds AM
Past  Records.
if building returns for May can be
taken as an Indication, activity in the
building line throughout the country is
veritably rampant. At no previous time,
considering the large number of cities
reporting, have the gains been greater in number or the individual increases of more striking magnitude.
Comparative figures submitted to Construction show an average gain for 32
centres of G5 per cent, the permits totalling $18,747,894, as against $11,324,-
89S in the flame period of last year.
But seven decreases In all are noted,
and only five of these can really be
considered aB being on the reverse side.
Montreal, for instance, where the permits amounted to $1,703,120, the loss
was less than one per cent, while In
the case of Stratford the comparative
totals represent so little as to Indicate
practically nothing one woy or the other. Saskatoon, with a decrease of 43
per cent, suffered the greatest loss
from an Investment standpoint. Fort
William Is the next in this respect with
a decline of 55 per cent. Ottawa, with
a falling off of 17 per cent, is third, and
Port Arthur and Peterboro' follow with
decreases of 67 and 46 per cent in the
order named. Saskatoon, as it was,
registered a total of $489,000, while Ottawa's amount was in excess of the half
million mark.
Calgr.ry's heavy investment, amounting to $3,616,812, shows a remarkable
state ot development, as does also Toronto's total of $2,643,755 and Vancouver's amount of $2,488,050. In fact all
sections with the seven exceptions previously noted, experienced a most
marked advance. Winnipeg, where new
work amounting to $2,229,480 was undertaken, reversed the leSB favorable
condition cf the previous month. Brandon, in the same province, with an investment, of over half a million, is 166
per cent ahead. In Saskatchewan, Re-
gina, with a total of $1,036,190, jumped
forward 160 per cent; Prince Albert advanced 740 per cent, and Moose Jaw
annexed a gain of 44 per cent. Other
western gains are Edmonton, 118 per
cent; Medicine Hat, 89 per cent; and
Victoria, 11 per cent North Vancouver,
while not submitting comparative figures, Indicates by her amount of $52,-
068 a very wholesome condition.
A notable feature of the month waB
the marked reversal of conditions in
tne eastern maritime district Halifax,
Sydney and St. John, which were behind the two previous months, are all
on the "upside," the former noting an
advance ot of 207 per cent and the latter two places gains of 378 and 30 per
cent i.i order named.
In Quebec, aside from Montreal's total and the figures of Westmount,
which gives a gain of 23 per cent, sta
tistics are unavailable, although It Is
ciefln'tely known that Quebec City and
a number of the smaller municipalities
undertook a substantial amount of
work. This also is true of other unheard from centres In the various provinces, many of which are establishing
new records with each succeeding
month.
Ab to the immediate outlook, it might
be said that at no time in the past has
there been so much important work in
prospect. July and August should record tremendously large totals although
labor troubles which threaten at the
present time might interfere to some
extent with operations in one or two
iinponant centres.

FIXING THE BOUNDARIES.
Preliminary to Organization of Rocky
Mountain Reserve.
The faces of the eastern slope of the
Rocky mountains, set aside a few
months ago by the dominion government as the Rocky mountain forest
reserve, have a tremendous influence
on the life of the provinces of Alberta
and Sasketchewan. Not only are they
valuable for the timber they supply,
but their preservation and proper management mean much in the way of regulating the flow of the streams which
issue from them. For use in irrigation
and the generation of power it Is desirable to have a steady flow of water—
not a torrent in spring, which becomes
a drled-up stream bed in summer. In
thus equalizing the flow of water the
value of forests at the headwaters of
Btreams Is universally acknowledged
Of great importance to the agrlcul
ture of the prairies, too, is the regulation of the rivers so as to maintain
the level of the moisture in the soil.
The first work undertaken in connection with the reserve was the locating
of the boundaries. Two parties of the
dominion forest service were engaged
all last summer (1910) In making out
the boundaries ot the reserve. One of
these, under Mr. G. H. Edgecombe;
B.Sc, worked south from Cal
gary to the international boundary: tbe
other, under Mr. P. Z. Caverhill, B.Sc,
started at Calgary and worked northward to a point almost due west of La
combe. It is expected that during the
coming summer the rest of the eastern
boundary of the reserve will be located
/as far as its northern boundary (some
50 miles north of the latitude of Edmonton). A full report of the work done
during the summer of 1010 has just
been published.
Land Included in the  Reserve.
The boundary as fixed by order in
council was found to a large extent unsuitable, and tbe recommended boundary Is in almost all cases* to the east
of it. The main principal followed in
fixing the eastern boundary was to exclude from the reserve all lands suited
for farming. The altitude, or height
above the sea-level, was another important consideration in fixing the line.
Many valleys are included in tbe reserve which are quite suitable for graz
lng.
What Firee Have Done.
Immense damage has been done to
the reserve by forest fires. Probably
75 per cent of the area has been burn
ed over. In the north, Mr. Caverhill
estimates, 80 per cent of the country
has been burned within the last 50
years—-60 per cent of this within
the past 25 years.
The abundance of lodgepole pine (a
near relative to the eastern Jack, or
Banksian pine) and poplar on many
tracts In the reserve is a sign of fire
having passed over them, These trees
are the first to spring up on burned-
over land, and by their rapid growth
they distance other trees and form the
first foreBt, in the northern part of the
region about 75 per cent of the country
is covered with a forest of lodgepole
pine, unmixed with any other species.
On nn area of 800 square miles covered by the "southern" party the distribution of the land was aa follows:
Timber, D per cent; spruce and pine
"poles" (a tree of "pole" size is one
from four to eight inches in diameter),
31 per cent; pine and poplar, 26 per
cent; poplar, IP per cent; open grazing
land, 14 per cent; bare rock, 10 per
cent
Game-and  Mineral  Resources
Game waa plentiful in all tbe region
traversed. Bull, cut-throat and grey
trout abound In the rivers, and, in their
respective districts, duck, grouse and
prairie chickens, moose, elk, sheep and
many kinds of fur bearing animals are
found. .
Among the mineral resources of the
country are the eonl-beda, oil-fields (in
the south) and quarries of building-
stone,
For slippers, soft little crushed rosettes of tulle or chiffon, in some' instances sprinkled with crystal beads
to resemble dew, are exceedingly pretty
as are also the buckles of pearl or colored beads.
The .vogue of stripes is very pronounced in bathing coBtumeB and the
numerous accessories, stripes are advantageously employed for sailor col
lars, cuffB, border bands nnd as finis)

STEEL BARGE
NEARLY READY
Will be Launched Early Next Month-
All of Steel and Cost Fifty
Thousand Dollars
Constructed wholly of Bteel the new
C.P.R. barge for use on Kootenay lake,
which has been built at a cost of approximately $50,000 at the Fairvlew
shipyards, will be ready for launching
by Aug. 1.
This barge, the only one of its kind
in British Columbia, marks a new era
in lake transportation in the province
and it Is expected that it will be followed by others of the same type within the next few years.
It was constructed by the C.P.R. at
tbe shipyards from plates supplied and
rivetted by !Polson's 'Iron Works of
Toronto, and will carry about 17 full
sized cars. It will be used chiefly on
the run between Procter and Kootenay
Landing and will prove an ideal icebreaker for the West Arm on th* rare
occasions when that branch of the lake
becomes blocked with ice.
COMMUNICATIONS
MAYOR   SELOUS   RECIPROCATES
To the Editor of The Daily News;
Sir—I have read with much gratification Judge Forin's letter in today'B
issue. As a patriotic Englishman I cannot sufficiently thank the judge for
his generosity and self-abnegation in
doing violence to his feelings and donning the much despised court suit. I
tremble to contemplate the disastrous
consequences to the British empire and
its august monarch had his honor the
judge refused to make a "guy" of himself for the empire's sake.
Would the coronation have been postponed or dispensed with, or perchance
would his majesty have declined the
crown altogether If the ceremony were
not graced by the presence tof his
honor.
The (Judge's personal remarks regarding my unworthy self fill me with
peculiar gratification. When one is not
particularly good oneself It Is surely
most uplifting to know that one is
present in the thoughts of the Great,
the Good, the iPure. I accept
with heartfelt gratitude hlB honor's offer of the loan of his cast-off clothing
and in return will beg bira to accept
ray copy of the Merritt Herald of May
26, which contains the following appreciation of his honor's many virtues.
"A Miscarriage of Justice"
"We have no hesitation in declaring
that Judge Forin of Nelson is a diBgrace
to the bench. The attitude of Pharisaical prlggishness which he adopted in
his misguided endeavor to prevent the
performance in NelBon of that painfully Innocuous musical comedy, 'The
Queen of the Moulin Rouge" will be
remembered by many and he has now
shown that hia heart is ns bad as his
head by a sentence of outrageous severity, which displays to the /full Ills
mediaeval outlook upon life. There
used to be a pleasant custom In the
middle ages of burying a suicide al
midnight at a cross roads with n stake
through his heart and there still re
mains—a blot upon the statute book—
a certain mediaeval enactment punishing attempted suicide with imprisonment. This statute obviously dates
from the limes when the laborer was
the chattel of his lord and master and
suicide or attempted suicide was therefore a combination of malicious mischief and grand larceny. The law is
one which Is generally allowed to remain n dead letter in this day and
generation, and advisedly so, but occasionally we meet with a judge with
the temper of a Jeffreys and the heart
of a Pharisee who enforces It and
punisheB it to the limit. Such a one is
Judge Forin. The case we refer to Is
that of F. H. Taylor, an English laborer, who, for attempted auicide, was
sentenced by that paragon of clemency
and wisdom to two years Imprisonment
in New Westminster, the maximum
sentence for the offence. It was pleaded in extenuation that Taylor had been
suffering from rheumatic fever which
had Induced insomnia ' and it was
shown that he had attempted suicide
to escape from the agonizing tortures
which he waa suffering and the torment of sleepless nights. The plea
availed him nothing with the stonyhearted bigot who sat on the bench and
he was given the maximum penalty
which the law allows. It waB also
brought out that the accused had a
wife and family in England. Whether
they are dependent on him or not,
we do not know, but as laborers' wives
are not usually possessed of private
means, it Is only fair to suppose that
they are, and we would like to know
how they will fare for the next two
years. We believe that Judge Forin
la a leading light in one of Nelson's
Sunday schools. One wonders If be
ever reads the New Testament. Another thought that occurs to us is what
sentence he would have pronounced
had the prisoner been some prominent
young society woman of Nelson instead
of a fever-racked, toil-worn "Bhovel-
stlff." The learned judge's reasoning
seems to have been: You are poor. You
are sick. You were bo tired of .your
life that you decided to put an end
to it. This is a horrible offence against
society and we shall therefore punish
you by branding you as a felon and
shutting you up for two years.
"We do not know Judge Forin and
we are not of a vindictive disposition,
but we do hope that before he dies,
he may be able to find out by personal
experience, Juat what rheumatic fever
combined with' insomnia feels like. Of
course In his case he would have proper nursing and the best of medical
attention and when he was convalescent
Instead of being dead broke and having
to hunt a job, he would be able to go
down to southern California or elsewhere for a change of climate.   Under

no conditions, therefore, can he suffer
what his victim did, but some slight
approximation of those sufferings
might work wonders in opening his
eyes to the fact that what the church
regards as a sin should not necessarily
be punished by the law as a heinous
crime in the twentieth century.
"In conclusion we wish to offer, our
slncerest apologies to Judge Forin if
the account of the trial in the Vancouver NewB-Advertiser, from which we
glean our facts, has led us into doing
him an Injustice. If, however, that account is correct ,we believe that two
petitions ought to be circulated in the
Nelson district, one praying for a free
pardon for Taylor and the other praying for the removal from the bench of
a man for whom there Is no longer
any sphere of judicial usefulness, now
that the Spanish Inquisition has ceased
to exist."
Hoping that his honor will consider
this a fair exchange.

CENSUS AT PHOENIX.
To the Editor of The Daily News.
Sir—The local census-taker, Mr. Mac-
Pherson, called on me this morning,
having been attracted hitherward by
my letter in The Daily News.
Having talked with him, I am rather
inclined to believe that my fears regarding suppression of - population In
Phoenix, at least, are not well founded.
I take this step because I would not
wish to be guilty of any injustice.
He tells me that the only transients
he is instructed to overlook are commercial travellers. Also, that Phoenix
will not show up as well as it ought,
aB, owing to the recent shut-down at
the local mines, many who are now
here were enumerated elsewhere.

INFIGHTING NOT
UNDERSTOOD THERE
English  Fans Call  It Foul—Want only
Scientific Boxing at Long
Range
LONDON, July 6.— In view of the
prospective match between Jack Johnson and Bombardier Wells for the
heavyweight championship of the world,
a great deal of talking is going on
among Englishmen concerning pugilistic methods. And the concensus of
opinion throughout the BritiBh Isles is
that of all the dirty fighters on earth
Americans are easily the dirtiest.
The popular English theory is that
Hhe two fighters should stand well
apart from one another, with figures
stiffly erect and left arms extended,
and spar for "points."' If one of the
points also happen to be a knockout,
well and good. But of Infighting the
Englishman has no notion. The moment the two men are so close together
that their bodies touch or their arms
seem Interlocked the Briton wants them
to separate and start over again. If
one of.them strikes his opponent without doing so the blow is immediately
classed as foul. Naturally then, Englishmen see a great deal of what they
think is foul fighting by American professors of the art of ringcraft.
English comment, on the recent fight
between Papkle, the American, and
Jim Sullivan, the Briton, very aptly illustrates how ignorant the Englishmen
are concerning the rules of the sport
at which they profess to be so efficient.
Referee Eugene Corro, who really
does understand the rules, says that
Papke fought and won fairly. "Leave
this to me," he shouted Impatiently
from the ring, during the progress of
the battle, in answer to the storm of
hisses and cat-calls with which the
audience greeted an exhibition of the
American's prowess as an inflghter,
"the lad'B entirely inside the rules."
"Cestus," the "Sportmen's" fighting
authority, another man who knows the
rules as they really are, agrees, though
somewhat quallfiedly, with Referee
Corrl. "Cestus," be It understood, dislikes Americans exceedingly, and never
speaks well of an American fighter if
he can help it. So he is less cordial
than Corrl in his expressions, but he
admits nevertheless that Corri's decisions were correct In every particular.
"Though the American's fighting was |
not of the cleanest, he wrote, in his
story of the battle, for the "Sportsman,'
"he never infringed the rules. The
sympathy was with Sullivan, but Papke
committed no fault, though he perhaps
went close to the line. And Sullivan
was by no means blameless and frequently did a bit of sly clinching."
But except for Corri and "CestuB,"
the English were a unit in lauding Sullivan and denouncing Papke.
"Papke went to any extreme to win,"
said the Express. 'He butted, he held
whenever it was tolerated. The tacticB
were not those of the iboxer we welcome in England."
"The astonishing point was that the
American; was not disqualified early in
the contest," declared the Mail. "When
he dealt the knockout blow, a short,
right-arm blow to the body, he was
apparently holding with his left."
"Papke Is a clumsy, unscientific fighter," commented the Star, "and his
methods - of butting and holding are
intolerable. The fact that it was an
international contest perhaps explains
the exaggerated leniency of the referee,
but It leaves one with a feeling of regret that Papke was not a worthier
winner."
"It could only have been the tolerance sometimes mistakeningly extended
to a visitor, to Great Brltlan," said the
Chronical, "that accounted for the fact
that the referee did not disqualify
Papke before the American got in, what
to my mind, wasl a foul blow."
"The crowd took Papke's triumph
rather cooly," reported 4|hje Leader.
"They could not forget certain incidents of the fight that left a rather
nasty taste in the mouth. Meanwhile
there Is no reason to be ashamed of
our British champion."
It was Jem Mack who Invented the
present English style of boxing; and
for piling up points it has never been
improved on. The whole end and object of an English fighter's existence
is to hold his adversary at a distance
with his left, to keep on tapping out
points everlastingly and occasionally,
when the adversary Is disorganized,
to cross with his right and land genuine wallops. The American gladiator,
plunging at him head-on, with both
hands ready for action and apparently
Indifferent to points, Is something the
English pugilist cannot understand.
It looks to him like an invitation to
punch Ills man. He accepts it, only to
find the blow's recipient inside a guard
a fraction of a second later, pummelling
his body. Whereupon the audience
shrieks "foul," and the newspapers set
up a chorus of lamentations about the
dirtiness of American methods.
Of course, if the Englishman and the
American are both on their feet at the
end of the specified rounds, the latter
Is    generally    hopelessly   outpointed.
Papk«3 was outpointed by Sullivan five
to one, until near the end of the ninth
round. The audience supposed Sullivan was winning. It never occurred
to anyone that the American was deliberately allowing his antagonist to
make points In return for the privilege
of picking the right spot for the landing of a knockout when the psychological moment arrived.
If Jack Johnson and Bombardier
Wells get together there will probably
be a lot of bets to be had at big odds
on Johnson. It will not be altogether
indiscreet to take the little end of a
selected few of these wagers. Not. Indeed, hut that Johnson will be the likelier candidate, but Wells, is quite good
enough to be worth risking a little
money on—if sufficient odds are offered—even against so formidable an
antagonist as the negro.
Bombardier Wells Is distinctly
English fighter. His only style is of
the point-making variety already con-
temptously referred to as so vulnerable
to American methods of attack. It must
be borne in mind, however, that the
English style is weak in practice—not
In theory. If It can be made as good
In practice as in theory It is ideal. Almost no English fighters are able to do
this. They make a prodigious number
of points in stopping their American
opponents' rushes, but sooner or later
there is nearly always a failure to stop
a rush, and then it is all over.
If, however, an English boxer is so
clever as to make absolutely no mistakes, he has only to wear his man
down sufficiently, and finally to finish
him at long range. Weils' boxing Is
as near perfection as is humanly possible. As a supplement to this extraordinary skill he has the bnormal
reach of 79% inches. At point-making
it Is doubtful if he has an equal. And
unlike, the points made by moat of his
brethren of the English ring. Wells'
points are not mere ornamental taps.
They are knockout wallops. It will be
unsafe for even Johnson to regard them
lightly. Bombardier has fought, approximately, 50 battles, and all .but two of
them ended in knockouts In his favor.
It is true that his antagonists were
"dubs," but they were the huskiest
kind.

HOW JACKSON,   400 HITTER,
WAS  FORCED  INTO  BASEBALL
Joe Jackson, the Cleveland recruit,
has batted around the .400 per cent
mark all season, In spite of the efforts
of the American teams to "get his goat"
and the work of the "Pitchers Trust" to
find "his weakness." Jackson was fair
ly forced into baseball. He signed his
first contract to keep the manager of
the Greenville team of South Carolina
league from nagging him, and in 1009
Jackson tried five times to quit the'Athletics. Eight times Connie Mack sent
him back to Philadelphia. Jackson preferred to cut meat in his father's butcher shop and play Independent ball
once or twice a week.
The youngster was a pitcher then. He
pitched for teams i around his home
town, and the manager of the Greenville team saw him work.
Jackson finally signed with Greenville, and won the first three games
he pitched. Then an outfielder took
sick and Joe played center field. He
never pitched again. He batted .320
and led the league.
Sam Kennedy, scout for the Athletics, went to Greenville to look, at an
infielder. He signed Joe and took him
to Philadelphia.
Kennedy went to Greenville and took
Jackson back to Philadelphia three
times, and Stock Seybold took him back
twice. Then Mack sent him to Savannah, and he played good ball. Jackson hit .305 in the South' Atlanta league, leading the league.
Joe cinched the pennant for New Orleans in 1910 by breaking up both
games of a double header at Memphis.
He made four hits in four times up In
the first game, and three hits; in three
times up in the second game. His batting average was .394.
While the Naps were in New York
playing the Highlanders, Jackson,
whose heels were raw from blisters, was
ready to play in his stocking feet. He
was wearing slippers, but put on his
ball shoes, unlaced, prepared to bat, if
necessary, and kick off his shoes as
he ran to first. Jackson playedi in his
bare feet in South Carolina. They
used to sprinkle the outfield with tacks
and glass, but the young star didn't
mind that.
MUST  BE  REPLAYED.
NEW YORK, July 6.—The protested
Chicago-Pittsburg gome of the morning
of June 30 will have to be played over.
This announcement was made at the
National league headquarters tonight.
Chicago protested the game and President Lynch sustained the protest nnd
ordered the game to be played over.
admit that the best team won, and that
If the victors had showered a few more
goals into their opponents' net it would
hot have been more than they deserved.
Vancouver literally played rings
around the once great team. They
showed that New Westminster had not
only met their match, but that they had
opposed to them a team of world-beaters. Vancouver would not be denied.
Their object was to avenge the defeats
of the past and see chalked up another emphatic win.—Exchange.
HOW   LOUIE   LONG  DIED.
Tho newspapers throughout Canada
anH tlw United States have the killing
of Louie Long, the Spokane prize fighter, so entangled that his friends have
requested us to give as near a true
version of the affair as can be had,
says ;he Calgary Herald. The following story, which is written by E0 Cuff
and forwarded to the Herald, in order
•to give the true account of the affair,
is bas°d on the statements of Long's
friends who witnessed the killing:
Long fought Tom Forbes on the
night of May 29, but realized little
revenue from the contest. He left the
next day for Opal City, where he met
Mrs. Rlely, or Helen, as she 1b known
At Opal City Riley was met and after a
Opal City Riley was met, and after a
conference with the woman, agreed to
give her up, but needed money to reach
Portland. Long borrowed the money
for her of his friends and Riley apparently started for Portland, but went to
Madras Instead. Long and the woman
left Opal City for Redmond, and Riley,
using the money obtained from the
woman, purchased a revolver and followed in another auto. About two
miles this side of Hillman Long's auto
broke down and Riley caught up to
them. It is thought that Long was repairing the auto and did not see Riley
until he was close to him. He was shot
twice, and Long tn his dying struggles
grappled with Riley and Riley shot him
through the back. The woman, who had
crawled out on the other side of the
machine, was ordered by Riley to come
to his side and then told to turn her
back, as he was going to kill her. This
she refused to do, and Riley, apparently losing his nerve, shot low, wounding
her in the thigh. The body of Long
was brought to Spokane and taken to
the establishment of Chad Irvin.
Riley has been bound over to the
grand Jury and refused bail. The Ad-
ams woman, who was with the Long
party, Is held on $250 bonds.
LouiB Long waa buried June 3. Many
friends and acquaintances attended the
funeral, six automobiles formed the
procession to the grave, and the services over the body by Rev. Mr. Lily
were very impressive.
The grave had been dug by Tom
Forbes, who had been Long's last opponent in the ring. After the services
the earth was put back by Ed Cuff,
who had been with Long about three
years, and he wished to perform this
last service for his old friend and
comrade. .
It was to second Cuff with his fight
with Rice that Long waB returning to
Redmond and thence to Bend. Upon
the news of Long's death, Cuff postponed his contest.
Long's brother at Eugene was communicated with, and he instructed
Long's friend to bury him.
Long leaves many sorrowing friends
in the Redmond district.
FOUNDATION  STONE LAID
OF CALGARY'S NEW FIRE HALL
CALGARY, Alta., July 6.—On the occasion of the laying of the corner stone
of the new central fire hall this mom-
nig, eulogistic remarks were passed in
reference to the city and its progressiv-
ness by some of the visiting firemen.
The newest jabots are broad at the
top, narowing down toward the lower
edge. There is a one-sided effect in the
trimming, the deep ruffles adjusted to
stralghter strips. Some show the touch
of black velvet in the form of buttons
or bows. And all are particularly lovely.
SPORTING SPOTLIGHTS.
At this stage the question might be
asked aa to whether New Westminster
will "come, back." Unless new blood is
introduced'thls seems impossible, New
Westminster has for a long time contented itself with believing that there
never would be a team produced which
would prove conquerors of the red
shirts.
The victories so far gained by the
Terminal city's aggregation this year
might help in awakening them to the
fact that the downfall of the champions
1b inevitable so long as Vancouver produces the form which has been in evidence at all the games played at the
recreation park this year. Summarizing the goals scored by both teaniB
this season Is ample justification for
making such an assertion.
New Westminster Burely has no excuse to offer on the battle as presented.,

FRIDAY. JULY 7
CANADIAN  NORTHERN COMING
The announcement that the subcontracts have been let for the construction of the Canadian Northern
main line along the Fraser river from
Hope to Kamloops, a distance of 1C3
miles, means that work Is to be commenced at once and it is promised that
It will be carried through with the
least possible delay. Work is under
way on various other portions of this
company's transcontinental line in British Columbia as well as in other provinces and It is only a question of a
couple of years until the Canajdian
Northern has a line from ocean to
ocean, thus fulfilling the ambition of
Its promoters, Sir William Mackenzie'
and Sir Donald Mann.
Th,e company, however, is not confining its energies to tbe construction
of its main line. Branch lines are
under way in every section as feeders
to the main trunk system. This applies in at least five provinces, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan,
and Alberta, while a proposal Is before the Dominion government to give
company access over the Intercolonial
to the maritime 'provinces, where it already owns a number of lines in Nova
Scotia.
In the provinces of Alberta and Sas
katchewan it is particularly active,
and at least one line, which it is proposed to construct in the former, Is of
direct Interest to the people of the
KOotenay. This Is a. line south from
Calgary to the Crow's NeBt Pass. The
company has already received assistance from the Alberta government for
this line in the shape of a guarantee
of bonds and that it proposes to proceed at once with the work of construction Is shown by the fact that It
has already secured land for terminal
purposes in the town of Macleod. A
charter is also held from the Alberta
government under similar terms of assistance for another line running to
South Kootenay Pass, which affords an
entry to tbe Flathead country.
It would be foolish to suppose that
the Canadian Northern does not. Intend to extend these two lines beyond
these two points. Either one or both
of them will be extended through British Columbia either to connect with
the main line or proceed by an independent route to the coast. Either of
these alternatives would be in keeping
with the policy of the Canadian Northern in other portions of Canada.
Every mile of railway which the Canadian Northern railway will construct
in the Kootenays will add to the general prosperity of this district and will
also stimulate development by opening
up new territory. (With the coming of
the Canadian Northern a new era will
open for the Kootenay, for besides the
direct benefit which will accrue from
its construction Ub invasion of this territory will mean increased activity in
railway construction on the part of the
companies already in this field. It will
give the people competition in railway
construction and the sooner that comes
the better for the country.

THAT   AITKEN   KNIGHTHOOD
The knighting of Sir Max Altken, as
one of the coronation honors, has
evoked very considerable comment
throughout the press of Canada and
this comment is almost without exception adverse. The Canadian Mining
Journal, for example, in its lasue of
July 1, says:
"In the eyes of Canadians nothing
could well detract more from the dignity of coronation week than the announcement that the organizer of the
Cement Merger had been decorated
with a knighthood. Of Itself this might
be a matter of congratulation. But
when our most eminent economist, our
leading educationist, and several other
distinguished public men are awarded
trifling honors, and upon a young man,
whose business reputation is not yet
cleared of a serious stain, a knighthood
Is bestowed, It Is time to call a halt.
"Knighthood and other formB of
royal recognition are the rewards of
outstanding service to the public. Sir
Max Aitken has performed no such service. His claim to distinction Is based
upon a remarkable facility in organizing mergers, In persuading the public
to buy* securities at an enhanced price
and in reserving for himself a disproportionate share of the spoil. His spectacular irruption Into English politics
gave him advertisement. More advertisement, of a different nature, was
given him when Sir Sanford Fleming
accused him publicly of 'unhallowed
practices In the realms of high finance.
And now his name stands upon tbe list
of those whom our King delights to
honor!   It Is to laugh, or to weep!

Fraternal Prescription for
Nervous Wrecks ^
(From   "Medical  Reports.")
Thousands of men, nervous wrecks,'
have found the following "fraternal
prescription" a blessing and a boon.
Such men lack aggressiveness, they
are timid, nervous, easily discouraged, lacking In self esteem and confidence. They suffer from cold extremities, thin, watery blood, nervousness, sleeplessness, frightful
dreams, trembling hands and limbs,
unsteady gait and an absolute Inability to perform the ordinary natural and rational acts or duties such
as any healthy normal  man can.
A vigorous man works, plays, eats
and sleeps always with the keenest
enjoyment. The greater his exertions
are the stronger becomes his appetite and slumbers.
The nervous man seems always
tired and worn out. Retiring brings
no relief. Sleep brings no refreshment, all because ot on abnormal
condition of the nervouB system,
brought about by—well, no matter
what—the desire Is for relief and
freedom with rich, • red blood surging through the body supplying the
sensitive nerves with all the power
of sensation, so that sleep Is refreshing, food Is delicious, work is play
and play Is pleasure.
This treatment Is thorough, simple
and eorrect. The Ingredients are
used In filling various prescriptions
and can be obtained of any well-
stocked druggist and mixed at home
.without embarrassment or questions.
Obtain three ounces of syrup sar-
saparllla compound in a six-ounce
bottle. To this add one ounce of
compound fluid balm wort and let
stand two hours. Then add one
ounce of tincture cadomene compound (not cardamon) and one ounce
of compound essence cardial. Mix,
shake well and take a teaspoonful
after each meal and one when retiring until a vigorous, bounding,-,
new health takes hold of the tired,
exhausted nerves. Only a few weeks'
treatment will astonish, and rejuv- ,
enate, because the treatment is the
right thing at the right time, and
contains  no deceptive opiates.

NELSON PLAY
TRAIL SUNDAY
Smeltermen Have Strengthened up and
Fast Game  is Expected—Cranbrook Coming
; The Nelson baseball team plays In
Trail next Sunday. Trail has strengthened up considerably since the two
teams met nearly a month ago and may
give Nelson a bard game. Trail 1b
close to Rossland and may have some
of the Golden City men in their lineup.
The Nelson team will be nearly the
same as when they defeated Marcus
on July 1, except that Moore, infielder,
who played with Nelson at Kaslo will
join the team today for the balance
of the season. Moore has great class
and is a great strength to any team
in this section of' the country.
Next week it is hoped that the strong
Cranbrook team will play here. Nelson
hopes to even up then for a long string
of defeats at their hands,
DISTRICT CENSUS
NEARLY FINISHED
Commissioner  Docksteader Will  Have
Majority of Lists in Tomorrow-
Nelson's Slow Roundup.
Though the citizens at large displayed
no vehement Interest In the effort being
made to assist the census enumerators
to get a correct count of Nelson's population, 20 more names were added to the
list yesterday, according to the report received last night from the publicity bureau, A few of these were personally reported, but the majority were secured
through the Interest of three or four Individuals.
A. B, Docksteader, census commissioner, expects ,,to have the report of every
enumerator of the Kootenay and Boundary In his hands by tomorrow night, except In the case of four enumerators,
whose work has been of a special nature.
The co-operation of the cltfsuns can still
be effective, as It Is morally certain that
the city roll is far from complete, through
circumstances that entail no reflection on
the enumerators. All names should be reported to H H. Curie, publicity secretary,
at the publicity bureau, where they will
be secured by the enumerators, creoked
over, and followed up.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES
Coveir your bed pillows with a
basted-on pillow-case of old thin muslin, which will keep the ticking from
head-stains—and the featherB from collecting possible disease germs—and will
make the top pillow-case look whiter
than when put directly on the ticking.
A burned or scorched cooking vessel is rough, even when perfectly clean.
Smooth the surface with a piece of
emery and grease and heat it thoroughly before using. Do not use for foods
that must be cooked several hours.
Starchy foods, especially, are liable to
burn.
White woolen fabric, as cashmere,
etc., can be cleaned at home with hot
sifted potato meal in a large howl, Into
which the material is put and rubbed
as though being washed, afterward
brush out the meal and shake out the
fabric; If not clean .repeat tbe operation
with some hot, dry flour.
To clean a net waist put it in a
two-quart fruit can filled with gasoline.
Be sure that the top is well screwed on.
Let it stand overnight. In the morning
shake the can back and forth. The motion will churn the dirt out of the waist.
Sometimes, if the article Is very soiled,
fresh gasoline must be used in tbe
morning.
A piece of white soap is quite an adjunct to any embroidery outfit. Rubbed
along the line taken by threads that
are to be drawn from linen, it will
make those same threads draw much
more quickly and easier. Rubbed on
the under side of the cloth when doing
eyelet wprk, it stiffens the linen and
makes it easier to do the work evenly
and uniformly.
Cotton blankets are washed differently than those made of wool. Soap
them well with laundry soap, fold and
allow to soak In tepid water. Wash
them In an hour or so and place in a
boiler of hot suds to steam, not boil.
Rinse in several waters. Use a very
little blueing and dry them double on
the line. Press dry on the wrong side.
Quite the contrary is the process of
washing woolens, for hot water cannot
he used on them. Dainty quilts, liable
to fade, should first be soaked in a
tub of cold water, containing a half
cup of turpentine to set the color.
To wash real laces, make a suds of
tepid water, white soap and borax.
Borax will whiten the lace and loosen
the dirt. Place the lace In a bowl,
cover with a towel and allow them to
soak. Change the water once or twice,
and rinse the articles several times. In
the last rinsing water add a few drops
of glycerine. Stir It through the warm
water, dip the pieces and lay them upon
towels to dry. Do not stretch or pull
the laces. Cover them with tiflBue paper and press with a medium hot iron.
All real laces have some oil in the
thread. It Is free from alkali. Never
use blueing.
FADS.
For the frock of linen there is a
hag made of white or colored linen to
match, either daintily embroidered or
perfectly plain, the only ornamentation
being the owner's monogram.
A smart white serge suit has cherry and white striped revers, with cherry colored buttons. With this is worn
a close shaped hat of geraniums, with
a green net how at the back.
Transparent wraps of marquisette
chiffon silk or voile are being displayed.
They are draped, trimmed with wide
lace, .fringe and half embroidery, and
lend a lovely color note to any costume.
Lingerie collars ot all descriptions
are much sought after on bathing suits.
They are circular, V-shaped and square
of the sailor Btyle. Both sheer and medium-weight batistle and linen are employed.
The vogue of thq elbow and three-
quarter length sleeve has given a fresh
impetus to the long buttoned or mous-

ELECTION COMING IN
NEW SOUTH WALES
Independent   Supporters   of   McGowen
Ministry Withdraws Adherence and
Government May be Defeated.
MELBOURNE, July 6.—The Independents, upon whose support the Labor
ministry in New South Wales has been
dependent since it took office, have become dissatisfied with the polocy of
the government and have decided to
withdraw their votes. In consequence
of this decision the party In power can
only count on a majority ot one, and is
liable to be defeated at any time. The
government is anxious to avoid dissolution, but the Liberals are doing their
utmost to bring it about as they feel
certain of regaining the treasury bench
in the event of an appeal to the country. The rock on which Mr. McGowen's
supporters split was the compulsory
arbitration bill which the Labor party
had pledged itself to carry.
Deputations from the women's reform leagues In Adelaide have waited
on the government demanding that lessons should ibe included in the school
curriculum pointing out the evil results
which follow the use of -cigarettes.
Favorable consideration of the proposal
was promised.
Mr. Tudor, on behalf of the federal
government has been negotiating with
the strikers in the sugar industry at
Bundaberg In an attempt to settle the
dispute between masters and men. The
minister finds that the only settlement
that can be made is to remit the duty
imposed by the excise authorities, and
in this way enable the sugar growers to
pny the increased wages demanded by
the men. The cabinet, however, will
not hear of this solution as the loss in
revenue  would  be at least   £150,000.
Some nmusing Incidents marked the
inauguration of the compulsory military
training scheme of the commonwealth
on Saturday last. The cadets paraded
In force in Adelaide, and while the
corps were passing through the streets
a small boy threw a bag of snuff
amongst them. The violent outbreak
of sneezing that followed wholly incapacitated the lads from further duty.
Another corps drilling in the city found
a football kicked into their raks. Immediately a wild scrimmage followed,
to the entire subversion of the discipline.

GREET SPEAKER WITH
HOOTS AND HISSES
Reference to Socialism  Leads to Disturbance at Vancouver Meeting
One Man Arrested.
(Special to The Daily News.)
VANCOUVER, B. C, July 6.—Timely
interference of the police at a big
meeting held in the horse show building last night at which Pastor Russell,
the noted Brooklyn and London divine
was the speaker, nipped, what for a
time promised to be a disturbance serious enough to bring the meeting to a
sudden termination. The huge building was packed to its capacity.
Hoots and Hisses.
It was during the course of the remarks of Pastor Russell, in which he
referred to Socialism as being practically identical with anarchy, and that
socialism would never, bring the kingdom of God, that the disturbance arose.
Hoots and hisses greeted the speaker
at this statement, completely drowning bis next words and almost putting
a stop to the meeting. Pastor Russell
sought to proceed with his address but
the uproar- continued and It was not
till the police were to be seen going
to that section of the hall where the
disturbance seemed to have originated,
that the speaker was allowed a hearing.
Not content, however, with the disturbance they had already created, the
rioters with cries of "equal rights for
all," "down with slave drivers," and
other such shouts, began to leave the
building by the rear door to the Btreet
at the back of the building where they
gathered and began to harangue loudly
amongst themselves.
One of their number, who it is alleged made 'himself more troublesome,
than the rest, fell foul of the police
and was quickly placed under arrest.
At the police station he gave his name
as Henry Fitzgerald, claiming to be a
prospector recently returned from
Steamboat mountain. The arrest of
Fitzgerald seemed to have the desired
effect on the remainder of the gathering outside.
LOST—On  Tuesday, a pearl brooch with
coral   center.    Return    to    417    Hoover
street. 71-2

JILTED CLERGYMAN __
AT ALTAR STEPS
Daughter of Earl of Liverpool Creates
Sensation in English Society-
Bride   Disappears.
LONDON, July 6.—Lady Constance
Folia time, daughter of the first earl of
Liverpool, and half sister to the present earl, who is controller of King
George's household, has given England
a real sensation. She jilted a preacher, as he waited for her at the altar,
while a big crowd were gathered in
the church for the wedding. Rev, H. A.
Hawkins, the would-be bridegroom, 1b
a fashionable clergyman of the Church
of England. Lady Constance is 21 and
Rev. 'Mr. Hawkins is two years her
senior. Where Lady Constance now is
only her relatives know. It is believed
that she fled to the continent when she
left the Earl of Liverpool's town house
yesterday. Rev. Mr. Hawkins, who was
deeply humiliated, hurried away from
London last night.
Church Was Crowded.
A big crowd of society people filled
St. Peter's church, Eaton square, one
of the fashionable marriage churches
of London, for the ceremony. On account of her brother's position near
the king, as well as her own popularity in society, Lady Constance's wedding was to have been the event of the
season. The organist played the voluntary and then waited. Twelve
o'clock passed and at 12:12 the society people began looking back towards the doors. At 12:20 they wondered, and- murmured questions passed from pew to pew. But the bridegroom that was not to be felt no anxiety. He knew that brides take a
long time to dress.
Earl Was Uneasy.
The real scene of excitement at this
time was in the home of the bride-
elect, at 44 Grosvenor gardens, overlooking the grounds of Buckingham
palace. Tbe bridesmaids and pages
had arrived. The dowager countess
was dressed, carriages waited in the
street, when Lady Liverpool, hysterical with surprise and distress, called
all the servants and Questioned them.
When 1 o'clock had come and no
bride, the Earl of Liverpool could bear
the annoyance no longer and quietly
sent to enquire the cause of the delay.
Lady Liverpool had just learned all
that was known. In broken gasps the
mother told the news that had been
given her by her daughter's maid:
"Lady Constance went out juBt before 10 o'clock, Baying she had forgotten to buy Bomething and she had not
returned."
Broke The News.
The Earl of Liverpool, pale and agitated, went to the vestry to break the

news to the distressed bridegroom
and leading him out by the vestry entrance drove away with him to Grosvenor gardens. Mr. Hawkins had to
he carried to bis carriage. The king
was represented at the church. It was
to King George's representative that
the Earl hastly communicated what
had happened and left him to tell the
others. Last evening the earl received a telegram from Lady Constance
saying: "I am quite safe. I changed
my mind and do not wlBh to be married.   I left London by train at noon."

PROSPERITY COMING AGAIN
TO SLOCAN DISTRICT
"Conditions In the silver-lead Slocan
district, British Columbia, have shown
remarkable improvement, within the
past few months," writes Sidney Norman in the Los Angeles Mining Review.
"The Standard at Sllverton, on Slocan
lake, owned by John A. Finch and
George Aylard, is developing into one
of the really big mines of the northwest and will largely Increase shipments' as soon as its new concentrator
has been completed. The Rambler-
Cariboo, at McGuigan, has recently
found a body of very high grade galena
on the 1200 ft. level and expects to
trace it down to the 1450 ft. level within
the next few weeks. The old mill, destroyed tn the forest fires of last year,
will be replaced by a new plant directly
a site has been decided upon,"
NUGGET MINE IS
PROGRESSIVE PROPERTY
Three years ago the Nugget mine was
a prospect with about 50 feet of underground work, sayB the B. C. Mining and
Engineer News. In this short space of
time $250,000 worth of ore has been
extracted with only a temporary 4-
stamp mill equipment; the average
width mined being approximately five
feet, and the average value being §25
per ton.     The purchase, development,

That kind of lattic work made of
cords or straight bands of the material
which was once called macrame and
used for mantle lambrequins has returned to high favor as a trimming for
all manner of gowns, under the old
name. It first came out on one-.piece
linen frocks that were full of color and
made to wear in tbe afternoon. It
then found its way to one-piece serge

Anniversaries
All weddings are happy events, and always rendered more so by
numerous beautiful and useful gifts. Why should the anniversary be
overlooked, Indeed it is not. For our experience proves to us that the
best pieces of ornamental Jewels are bought by married men. Why?
Because the prize they won on the first anniversary Is worth more than
they bargained for—and so mos men are men. They want to square
up and indeed the beat Is none too good.
Our stock is especially adapted for these cases and most happy
results have been obtained.

lie ball at Slocan Junction, where entertainments, readings, dances, etc.,
could be held and services of any denomination take place. He stated that
there was a report In the district that
the building of the church for the two
centres of Bonnlngton and Slocan Junction had been dropped but that was
not true. The church would certainly
be built on the site kindly presented by
J. T. Bealby. What had happened at
tbe general meeting last week was this
Mr. A. P. Durrant having stated that
the affairs in the parish were unsatisfactory, a motion proposed by Thomas
Wheildon, vicar's church warden, and
seconded by himself (Gerald Ashby) as
peoples' churdh warden, had been
unanimously carried to this effect:
"That owing to unsatisfactory state of
affairs in the parish nothing further
(otherwise than the matters already
decided upon) be done with reference
to the erection of the church until
after the general ohurch committee of
the parish had had an Interview with
the bishop early In August." The chairman hoped that the bishop would acquiesce in the strong views of the people of Bonnlngton and Slocan Junction
in (which case the church building
would be proceeded with and already
$800 had been subscribed. The secretary had omitted to send In a report of
that meeting to The Daily News, hence
this erroneous impression had got
round. It seemed that a public hall
was most necessary for the place
which had largely increased in the last
few years, for entertainments and social intercourse generally.
A discussion ensued and a plan
drawn by Martin Anderson was submitted to the meeting. A motion proposed by O. W. Humphrey and seconded by C. Patey that a hall be erected
upon the plan proposed by Mr. Anderson, or something similar was unanimously carried. The site was kindly
presented by Martin Anderson. The
following were elected trustees: Gerald Ashby, C. Penwick, O. W. Humph-
