Tin- hours suggested for opening tho lobb.\ of the building to thc public are from noon until 1 o'clock in the afternoon ind from !) until 10 o'clock at night These were the hours decided upon by tho board as likely to prove most convenient to the greatest number ol people. No Sunday Labor Involved The matter was introduced by a letter from the postmaster general to A S. Goodeve, M.P. In which the minister asked for an expression of opinion as to the hours likely to prove most suitable. The minister stated that tbe government did not desire i.o encourage Sunday labor in post- ■jfflces. It was pointed out that absolute!; no extra work would be placed upon the postofflce staff If the lobby ol Urn office wero opened as suggested 1'he board had not asked for tbe gen- -r-rnl delivery wlCKei tov De openea on Sunday. Big Power Plant Involved. "I have positive assurance that the pulp and paper mill proposition Is a jona fide one," said "VV. F. Roberts, who stated that engineers were already on the ground nt Graham creek preparing for the construction of the *300,000 factory and a $150,000 power plant to operate It. Water rights Iind been secured for the hydro-electric plant, said Mr. Roberts. A townsite had also been staked out. There was plenty of money behind the proposition, he said. Revision Would Aid City Tho hoard decided that It would nol condemn an application of the western Jobbers to be heard In Regina shortly by the railway commission for tho abolition of the restricted lists under distinctive headings; the restriction of carload rates to straight carloads o: one commodity of analogous commodities and for minimum carload rate*-; to approximate reasonably to the carrying or cubical capacity of the standard car with due regard to the marketing condition of the articles In question. The president said that he thought Nelson should not oppose the application. He believed the revision If made would" Increase the business In this centre. R. W. Drew said that the proposed revision would assist the legitimate wholesalers. It would do away with pooled cars. Mr. Cramer thought tbat merchants would suffer If pooled enrs were don away with. The point was. said Mr. Drew, tha Vancouver did not import pooled cars Vancouver shipped out pooled cars Tho proposed revision would work nc hardship on any territory but Vancouver under present conditions could compete unfairly against local wholesalers. Will Not Hurt Retailers Tho president and Mr. Drew agreed hat the retailers Would not suffe one lota If the revision were made, I would merely permit Nelson whole- :alers to obtain the business whlcl was legitimately theirs but which a: present was largely absorbed by Vancouver. Regarding the proposed change li ho carload minimum Mr. Drew salt t would not affect the heavier articles The board deckled not to condemn tho application for the proposed .revision on motion of A. S, Horswill ind Mr. Drew. A report from E. K. Beeston stated tbat the building nt the Mountain station had been erected ln accordance with the plans approved by the railway commissioners nnd wns fjilrl: comfortablo and was a groat Improvement over the previous accommodation for passengers. Mr. Beeston stated that he had suggested to W. E. Ketchum, local Great Northern railway agent, that the sanitary arrangements were somewhat unsightly. Neil F. Mackay, Newly Elected Member for Kaslo. estimated 10,500 cubic yards should be removed from thc waterfront. Thi; work would occupy two months and cost $2,500. As this work, said thi communication, was considered of a private nature the department suggested that thc city should pay for tho work. A committee consisting of L. B. DeVeber, R. W. Drew and R. W. Hinton was appointed to go into thc matter further in conjunction with the Conservative association. J. T. Andrews and H. Bailey of the Star Grocery, \Y. E. Ketchum R. J. SmllbrA. E. Taylor, T. A.

Tho increasing Clamor against ndher- enco to the policy of secrecy concerning negotiations vitally affecting the whole nation seems only to have made iho government moro reticlent. The official statement Issued was the briefest yet. Tlie only information vouchsafed concerning the proceedings being "The position was further discussed." The miners' executive later gave out resolutions which wero adopted prior to the opening of thc conference and later presented to the delegates and ministers in joint session. Tbe resolutions In effeet state that tlie miners will sanction district negotiations for a settlement of rates for piece workers other than coal getters when the owners concede thc minimum rate provided fnr In tbe schedule drawn up by the miners' federation, with flvo shillings as the Irreducible minimum for men and two shillings for boys. Must bo National Tho resolutions Indicate that a contrary view was widely held yesterday. The miners stfll Insist that the settlement of the strike must be national In scope. This ,one of the miners' delegates frankly admitted, loaves no ghost of a show for Immediate settlement. In. Ihe meantime there are Indications that the English colliers who are In a position lo make favorable terms with the owners are growing restive. At Sunderland, the miners of tho neighboring districts met today nnd protested against the continuance of the strike. They agreed that tho Durham lodges would urge Uie members to return to work if truce is not affected by the end of lhe week. At Lanarkshire. Scotland two pits havo been opened wlttl nonunion miners.

KETTLE VALLEY APPLI Engineer of 6Railway Com- misy to Inspect <** ' • i P;,flT0FWAY * AT HOPE CANYON Calgary's Application For Freight Classification Postponed i¥*3 CALGART, Alta. March 14—The board of trade on behalf of Calgary shippers made an apllcatlon to tho board of railway commissioners hero today to have the Canadian freight classification amended so as to abolish restricted trado lists under distinctive headings, restriction of Carload rates to straight carloads of out commodity and minimum car weight to approximate the carrying enpacity of a standard car 36 feet 6 inches In'-** side length. A. Georgeson appeared to uphold the petition and along with several witnesses pointed out the hardships of the local JohberB under present conditions. It Is tbe contention of the Calgary Jobbers that eaetern wholesalers aro cutting in on their buslnena seriously by sending their travellers out to the smaller towns and mHIkk goods Individually and working together In the matter of shipment «s3 making ono car serve to bring »on- slgnments of mcrchandist to perhaps a dozen different retailers. The'Boat- ter was not dealt with by the commissioners but was left over to b» considered when the board meets at Regina. The city's application for tha fourth street west subway under tho Canadian Pacific tracks met strenuous opposition. Tho application waa put over until the next meeting of tho eonimlssion at Calgary two months away. Kettle Valley Application The commissioners ( considered an application of tho Kettle Valley railway company for approval of tho location of tho lino In n canyon near Hope, B.C. In this connection a counter application was placed by tho V., V. & E. Railway & Navigation Co., asking that their line In the same connecllon be provided for. It appears that In the canyon of a small stream that empties Into the Fraser river at Hope there aro Unas surveyed by both companlos and that thero is danger of snowslides; both of these lines are on tho samo side of the river. Both railways olalm priority of location and therefore first rights in tho matter. In view of tho complicated nature of tho situation thc commissioners decided that tbe engineer of tho board should bo sent to make an investigation, and if possible a decision would bo rendered whereby both lines could use tho cart- yon. Tho matter of the right of way for the Canadian Northern across the C.P.R. property east of the city was once more hrougbt up. Both parties wero agreeable to a board of arbitration but they could not agree to the personnel of such a body. A. P. Clark representing the Canadian Northern, wanted one arbitrator, while Mr. Walker, for the C.P.R.. wanted thred. It was decided finally that the matter should be taken up again on tho day the commission met In Edmonton. If the towns and districts along the A. R. & I. railway In southerrt Albertk are to have any redress In the rnatter of freight rates which they claim to bo excessive It will riot b.o until tne C.P.R. has finally taken over operation of this lino and has submitted Its tariff to tlie board of railway Commissioners ln session here tot approval. This In effect was tho flecls- lon of tho commissioners this morning when A. j. Maynard. mattagM of the Canadian Bank of Obrintiyrcei at Nety Dayton, placed a 'complaint on behalf of tho board of trade, of Jhlt town Involving an alleged delay Of $0 hours In the forwarding of soyeral t&rt of cattle threo years ago by MdEtaiisl Bros, of Carstalrs.

C, March 14.— On Tuesday William Hunter, candidate for re-election in the Slocan district, addressed the Winlaw district electors in Perry Siding schoolhouse, under the auspices of the local Conservative association. R. D. Kennedy occupied the chair. Mr. Hunter gave a short account of his stewardship, entering into particulars regarding tho local appropriations. He explained what he had done with regard to Perry Siding bridge and showed that whatever delay had occurred in its erection, he was not responsible for.' A start was, however, to be mado immediately and he expected the river would bo spanned before high water. Several other gentlemen addressed the meeting, and after a vote of confidence In Mr. Hunter was passed, the candidate spent another hour in informal conversation with the old timers and malting acquaintance with the newcomers. There was a very good turnout, over 40 people being present, including several ladies. Perry Siding is fast becoming a religious centre In the valley, enjoying as it does the services of two minis ters, the one, Mr. Glllam, giving a Pr«csbytcrian service every two weeks, and Mr. McCann, an Angelica n service once ln four weeks.

FRUITVALE, B.C., March 14—A large crowd assembled nt Fruitvale on Monday night to meet Mr. Schofield the Conservative candidate for tho riding, t Every scat In the school house was occupied and many had to stand during the whole meeting. In the absence of J. Mulr, the president of the local Conservative association, tho chair was taken by Mr. Brewster, who, after a short speech In whioh he urged everyone who had Lhe power to vote to make use of their privilege. He then called upon Mr. Schofield to address the meeting. On rising Mr. Schofield was greeted with tremendous applause. In his address he explained why the government had again appealed to the province Instead of waiting till their full term had. expired. He discussed al length tho railway policy of the McBride government explaining the contracts with the different railway companies and pointing out the advantages obtained for tho people of British Columbia. Mr. Schofield also dealt with the Telephone and Pound acta nd tho report of the commission on* taxation. At the conclusion of his address several questions were put to Mr. Schofield With regard to roads. The proceedings then terminated with throe cheers for Mr. Schofield which were heartily given. There Is not the least doubt bul that Fruitvale will give Mr. Schofield a substantial majority on election day as the ranchers are well,pleased with tbe assistance given ny tne government In opening up the district and the sympathetic manner in which Mr. Schofield meets them in all matters put forward for the good of the valley. Mr. and Mrs. Hull left on Monday last for Halcyon to spend a couple of weeks ln the hope that the change will prove beneficial to Mrs. Hull who has been In a low state of health for some time past. R. J. Bush reports the sale of another tract of land In tbe Fruitvale subdivision having a railway frontage, the deal being put through last week.

Of all the articles on the shelves, how many were on your shopping list five years ago? Make it ten years, and you will find that most of the things you buy to-day—and could not do without-r-were not even made then. i ■ You men arid women who buy things, let this sink in. You arc better men and women because of advertising. You eat more wholesome food. You wear better clothes. Your home is better furnished. You have cleaner and more sanitary houses. You read better books and magazines. You seek more healthful amusements. 1 Your whole standard of living has been raised—and why? Because the men who make these better things are telling you that you will be more comfortable, happier and healthier if you use these higher grade goods. f It is advertising that makes it possible for you to buy "the best" right at your corner store. It is advertising that encourages thc inventor to make new comforts and new utilities and enables you to buy them almost immediately after they are perfected. f J. J. Hill says this "high living" costs more. True for J. J.—but it is worth more.

Rossland—Lome A. Campbell. Slocan—William Hunter. Ymir—J. H. Schofiald. FOUR ACCLAMATIONS IN KOOTENAY AND BOUNDARY. Nomination day is now passed and lhe final stage of the electoral con- tost has begun. On the result of yesterday's nominations the supporters of tho government in Kootenay and the Boundary have good reason to ■congratulate themselves. Four seats nre already won. Hon. Thomas Taylor is eleeted by acclamation in Revelstoke, In Kaslo Mr. Nell F. Mackay wins the seat without a contest, Mr. Ernest Miller Is re-elecled for Grand ■Forks and In Cranbrook Mr. T. D. Caven takes the sent by acclamation. It Is a striking and well-deserved tribute to the excellence of the service rendered to their constituencies and to the province by Messrs. Taylor, Mackay, Miller and Caven, and It is an equally strong indication of the popularity and public support that the McBride government has won for its-elf by its able administration. In other constituencies in Kootenay nnd tbe Boundary the opposition bas decided to test public sentiment at the polls, and in these cases also the result of yesterday's nominations gives to supporters of tbe government good ground for gratification. The standard bearers of tho government are not only strong candidates but In every respect worthy of the cause they represent. In Fernie, Hon. W. R. Ross bears the government standard; in Nelson, Mr. W. R. Maclean; in Tmlr, Mr. J. H-. Schofield; In Greenwood, Mr. J. R. Jackson; In. Slocan, Mr. William Hunter; in Rossland, Mr. Lome A. Campbell, and in Columbia, Mr'. H.G: Parson. All stand high in public: estimation. All have rendered distinguished public service. Without exception they are candidates in whom lust a Nice Size and a Very Desirable Property Two full size city lots, sis convenient rooms. Bath, full plumbing, electric light, gas for cooking, furnace for winter heating. Price $2,400 On terms by arrangement. This property Is particularly recommenced as being excellent value and n very comfortable residence. We will be pleased to show you over the house at any timo to suit your convenience and advise early attention. McQuarrie & Robertson any constituency may feel pride, and without exception they aro admirably qualified to render valuable service in Victoria. ', Of the opposition candidates there is Utile that need be said. Most of them are comparatively unknown and untried men. They are representative of various schools of thought, but what Is most important to remember, they are asking for support as opponents of the government. They arc brakes on the wheels of progress. They offer the province nothing practical and their election would weaken the government and hamper thc good, work that It Is doing for the province. Their tendency ls reactionary, and tbo province lias good reason to dread retrogression. Unexampled progress has been fostered by the administration of thc McBride government. Thc province has been lifted from a morass of difficulties to firm ground on which beams brightly tho sun of prosperity. Can It afford to endanger Its present condition or to risk another plunge into the slough of despond? LIBERALS SUPPORTING THE GOVERNMENT. Yesterday's nominations made it more than ever clear that the majority of the Liberals of British Columbia do not believe that, in the Interests of the province, it is desirable at the present time to do anything that might endanger the policy that Is proving of so much advantage to British Columbia. In many constituencies no Liberal candidate has offered himself as an opponent to the government, strong evidence that thc rank nd file of the Liberal party is in the present election supporting tbe administration, There has been a recent attempt on the part of some of the self-constituted leaders of the party to arouse partlzan antagonism to the government, but with little success. The eason is evident. These self-constituted leaders are discredited and arc ■pudiated by tho great majority of the sincere Liberals of the province because, as the Vancouver World, the chief Liberal organ, recently frankly onfeased, thoy have "stood on no principles in particular," they have gone into the electoral campaigns not for the great reform principles for which they imagined they were fighting, but merely to procure place nd power for peoplo to whom politics mean nothing more than party pportunlty." When this Is the case It is not surprising that Liberals everywhere have turned from such leaders ond are supporting thc government in its efforts to give thc province honest and able administration. And on Its part the government Is striving earnestly and Successfully to merit tho confidence lhat Liberals are placing in it. It knows no party when partlzan advantage migiit conflict with its duty to the province. Its policy Is designed to benefit every resident of BrltlBh Columbia, Liberal and Conservative This Date in History. \ sir Henry Besemer, famous English metatluiglBt and Inventor, died on March ]."i. 1S9S.

C„ March 14.—A meeting called in the Interests of H. E. Forster, Independent candidate In Columbia riding, held here this evening wound up with the honors decidedly in favor of H. G. Parson, Conservative candidate, who had been Invited to attend thu meeting. Mr. Forster was not present at the meeting, having left for points up country today. C. A. Warren was in the chair and announced this fact but stated that he had left his able lieutenant, Capt. Armstrong, whom he Introduced as first speaker. Capt. Armstrong made a number of charges, much to the delight of supporters of Mr. Forster, who were in the minority although the meeting was called in his interests. Ho was well received and given a most attentive hearing. Mr. Parson was equally well received, but not until he proved beyond a shadow of doubt that statements made by Capt. Armstrong were of an Imaginative character did he take bis seat amid much applause. He invlled questions from tbe audience time after time relative to the authenticity of his replies to charges made but bis remarks wero not questioned once from the large crowd in attendance. The meeting was more In the nature of a trial for Mr. Parson than anything else and so thoroughly did he deal with charges that if the audience had been a sworn jury Mr. Parson would have been vindicated without dissent. Tho result of the meeting leaves little doubt as to how the big majority of electors hero will mark their ballots on March 28.

THEW, Proprietor ' LONDON, March 11.—Thc Right Hon. Herbert L. Samuel, postmaster general, in a speech at the dinner of Associated Chamber of Commerce b^vmbej-^fCommg PREMIEFgSPEAKS FOR MACLEAN SOUR, GASSY UPSET STOMACH REGULATED Addresses Rally in Conservative Committee Rooms—Attorney General Also Makes Speech. Premier McBride, accompanied by Hon. W. J. Bowser, arrived In Nelson last evening after addressing meetings along the Crow and leaves this morning for Trail and Rossland, speaking at the former place this afternoon and In the latter this evening. Both the Premier una Mr. Bowser attended a rally of the supporters of W. R. Maclean, thc Conservative candidate for Nelson, In tho campaign committc rooms. Fred A. Starkey, campaign chairman, presided and In addition to tbe premier and attorney general, Mr. .Maclean also spoke. Thc Premier opened by. expressing tbe pleasure it gave him to see so many present, betokening their interest In tbe campaign now In progress. While he had met royal receptions at the places visited since he left here -Monday morning, it gave him pleasure to bo back in Nelson to meet the Con servative workers., Nelson had come to be looked upon as the capital of the interior and as such was deserving of every consideration at the hands of ihe government and this, ho could assure them, it would receive. He was conversant with the city's needs in tho way of roads and also in regard to a bridge and these matters would have the earnest attention of the admin- is (ration. For All the People. There was, he understood, a Socialist In the field in Nelson and in view of that fact he had a few words to address to workingmen, whose interests had always been protected by his government. His was not a government for the merchant, the forme thc capitalist. It was a government for all the people. It must be remembered that in the development of tlie country capital as well as labor was necessary. British Columbia was i rich and promising country, that required only development, but to secure this development many problems had to be faced and overcome. The gov ernment was doing its best to meet these, hut day by day new conditions arose, which had to be mot. To do this lhe government was bending lis best efforts. Of course, there were many things the importance of which, ■iccording to various people interested, the government failed, to realize. The government, however, he could assure them, was doing its best. He need not remind them that there was a disposition to blame governments for things which they could not help. In fact thero were some, who when they arose with a bad liver In the mornim were prepared to blame the government for it as well as for everything else Which they did not consider right. In regard to the Socialists lie might point out that if It wero not for tlio capital which had been la-ought into the country they would not bo here. This was about the only part of Canada In which the Socialists could regularly get money entlugh, to, put up for election deposits. It was (|uilo true Hint the government had not been able to adopt all the legislation submitted to it. In many cases private members Introduced so-called labor legislation which the government, acting- In the Interests of the province as a whole, was forced lo reject. How, ho asked, for example, could the fortnightly pay day be applied to the whole province. There were many parts of the province whore at the present time such a measure was utterly impracticable. How, for example, could a fortnightly pay day bo arranged for In Cariboo or ther remote portions of tho province where there were no banking facilities ml little, If any, ready money. The -ocinlisls represented only a small i action of the workers of the province. In Arlctorla and Vancouver, .'here the workers very largely predominated- the government was particularly strong as was shown by tho result of past elections. This was proof beyond question that the workers appreciated the efforts of bis government in their behalf as well as in that of the people of thc province as a whole. They realized the justice of the policy of the government of dealing fairly with all, Among tho things his govern ment had in view was tho appointment of a labor commission,' This w vote getting scheme, but Its result would lie a distinct benefit to the people of the province as a whole, All would have an opportunity to appear before this commission and to express their views. Recognizes Responsibility In the last election bis government had practically swept the province. On that occasion Nelson had been one of the Constituencies which had returned a government supporter. The great strength of the Parly in the last legislature had placed a great responsibility upon the members of tho government which they had fulfilled to the best of their abilities. The prospects were that tbe result of the present elections would be equally decisive. If so he would assure them the government would be doubly careful tbat the affairs of the province were conducted along right and proper lines. What the government had to avoid was becoming afflicted with what was known In tho west as "big head." To avoid Ibis nnd lo con-lnet the affairs of the province along sane, reasonable lines would bo bis policy so long as he was at thc head of the government. In Nelson the Conservatives had nominated Mr. Maclean whom he felt confident would carry the party banner to victory on election day. Ho would, however, like to see Harry Wright come Into line and support the choice of the convention, the mart.who was carrying the Conservative banner In tho election In Nelson. Ther# whb rule in the Conservative party. The choice of candidates tvas left Out of Order Stomachs Feel Fine Five Minutes After Taking a Little Diapepsin Tho. question as to how long you are going to continue a sufferer from indigestion, Dyspepsia or out-of-order Btomach Is merely a matter of how i.ouii you begin Inking some DlapepBin, ir your Stomach Is laoklnu in digestive power, why not help tho stomach to do Its work, not with drastic druffs, lnit a ro-lnforcemeat or digestive agents, such ns are naturally at work In file stomach.

On .niesUons of 1 kind he was always ready tn accept voice of the people and if it were a essary iu order to secure this lo hold election every year it would he held.

The minister or war is said to be on friendly terms with them. Rooenlly King Peter appointed Crown Prince Alexander, who has only the rank of colonel in tho Sixth infantry regiment, and but 21 years old, inspector general of tho army. Alexander took an energetic slund against the half-mutinous and negligent officers belonging to the "Black Hand." During the inspection somo of the officers wore so plainly hostilo to the crown prince that he reported the matter to his father. Tho king ordered the minister of war to punish the officers. The war minister instend asked the king to remove his son ns Inspector general, "because of his youth and the hostile attitude of tho officers." Alexander gave up the.post and has gone to Switzerland and Italy for a "vacation." Next the king ordered an investigation of the "Black Hand" organization. Sentences of death were Immediately passed by thc organization upon tho Investigators, wiih the result ihat thc probe was called off.

LONDON, March M.—The "miraculous cure" of a girl who lias been bod- ridden for five years and who has been latterly blind and deaf, in a single night, is causing a sensation lu South London which Is likely to spread all over the kingdom. Dorothy Kerrin, who was 112 years old last November, wus forced to take her bed, apparently a hopeless invalid. Everything that was possible was don.> for her; she was sent to sanatoria, had the most expert physicians lo attend upon hor, but everything was of no avail, and tbe story of hor marvellous and sudden restoration lo apparently complete health is vouched for by both Miss Kerrin herself and the physician who saw hor both before and'after tiie wonderful transformation. "Yes, It's true," said Mrs, Kerrin to a caller at their homo in Milkwnod road, Home Hill. "Dorothy Is downstairs now and in tlio highest spirits. She seems her dear old self again. My daughter fs one ot a family of five, and for the last seven years she has but tln-y thought there that her caso was hopeless. Next we tVled St. Peter's homo for Incurables, at KUburn, bin she was brought homo from thero two years ago apparently dying. Then she went blind and deaf, and the doctors gave her up. '■one Sunday evening a thing happened which wo cannot understand." As .Mrs. Kerrin spoke a burst of merry laughter cane- from another room, and Dorothy herself came tripping In. "1 was lying on my buck in the bed," she said, "when suddenly I saw a du-iKling light, like a fire. I wondered what it could be, and then I seemed to hear a voice say, 'Dorothy, your sufferings are over. Get up and walk,' "Then I fnund myself sitting up in bed, and called out, and saw my father and mother standing in the room very surprised. I made an effort and I got out of bed. Now I feel quite well and have no pain at all.*' Ono of ihe physicians, a fellow of the royal college of surgeons, or wide experience, who lias seen Miss Kerrin sine- her wonderful recovery, said that her ease was a wry remarkable Dne- -j** n_tM LISZT INVITES HIS AUDIENCE TO SUPPER Karl GAldmark, the composer of the "Queen of Shebu," has been contributing reminiscences of his long life to n German musical magazine, In a recent instalment bo gives an Interesting account of the magnificent and lavish tastes of some of the celebrated musicians of tbo past.

For the most part a coarse straw Is being used, as It lends itself so admirably to the flower trimming which will be extensively used. 'Many small, dainty shapes are on display, but the larger hats seem to hold their own. Taken all together tho displays are so beautiful in both color and design and the wealth of artificial flowers so extensive that it is no wonder Iho choosing of a new hat Is such a difficult matter to decide. At Meagher's. A millinery opening means a busy day at Meagher's store, and Miss tfeatty and her assistants were kept busy all the time showing the new season's models to hundreds of women who seem only too anxious to got rid of their winter hats and don tho extremely pretty creations which are' to be worn this spring. Before entering the store one gets a glimpse of the good things to come from the beautiful models, trimmings and veilings so artistically displayed in the show window, and despite it being a rather cold, dull and snowy day, one felt spring wns here indeed on seeing the masses of brightly colored flowers and entrancing airy trimmings lavishly displayed in the show rooms. To give an adequate and Impartial description of the many only too fascinating models displayed would bo impossible In tho space at disposal. One lingered long before a beautiful creation by Alphonslne, only to be equally attracted hy a captivating one from Joseph. This Is evidently to be a season of milliners' creations, ns the amount of needlework and draping used upon hats is very much more than it has been for several seasons. "Plenty of flowers arranged In most attractive ways are used, some crowns noticed being entirely covered with thorn; also flowers as an nndcrtrim decoration aro onco moro featured. Hoses perhaps arc the favorites, but violets, orchids, chrysanthemums and all sorts of other blossoms and foliage are seen in profusion. Ostrich and Paradise look as If they wore again to he popular as a number of models trimmed with them nre shown. Laco and flowers, however, arc undoubtedly to he tho most popular trimmings, the laco being generally used over a foundation of straw or silk. Tulles and Mallnes are also much in evidence. There' is no doubt that both large and Mii-ill hats will he In favor,,the (-■mailer ones for early spring nnd for practical service, while the largo will probably predominate for summer and dress occasions. Coarse nacre straws arc very popular; Peanft is also good and Tagal braid Is a great favorite. Lace hats are expected to be a strong feature for summer wear, Macrame, Cluny, Venetian, C'hantllly and Vals. being used. Some of these have a willow plume for trimming, and tho effect is most charming. Many hats of the sailor order, with medium crowns and slightly rolling brims, are shown; also a particularly mannish stylo, with large round crown, wide hack and slightly rolling narrow sides. Dutch bonnet effects are featured ln a variety of styles, and there is a now Tarn effect which looks very well. Thero is a very pronounced use of bandeaux, short and broad, daintily colored, ou pressed shapes with high crowns. They arc appliqucd around the crown and finished with a floral mount. Taking It as a whole, thc millinery show this spring is distinctively feminine nnd charming, and ono is almost bewildered with its beauty and variety, and no one will be nblo to complain that there are no shapes to suit their particular fancy. - Hudson's Bay Display. Tbo Hudson's Bay store seemed to Want Proof? That's Right! A 10 days' trial of in place of coffee, will show any coffee drinkar just how coffee has been treating him. After the trial Look Back and compare the old condition of coffee aches and ills* with the return to health and comfort which came with the change to Postum. It will then be plain why "There's a Reason" for bo one of the great centres of attraction, if one can judge by the number of ladles who, all through the morning and afternoon, thronged the sumptuous millinery parlors. Hats for all occasions arc tastefully and artistically displayed on a great number of tables. All requisites for trimming and finishing this most Important article of ladies' wear is displayed In every fashionable style, shape and shade. The services of a thoroughly competent milliner, Mrs. Carpenter, who, up lo three weeks ago occupied tlio position of head milliner and designer in one of thc foremost establishments In that line in Boston, was at tho command of all visitors. This lady, who has just arrived from tho centre of fashions in the United States mid who has a thorough knowledge of tho subject, was kept busy explaining the very latest up-to-date styles, assisting in the selection and suggesting the designing and trimming of shapes. Among the many models displayed were thc new sailor derby and telescope hats and very many other designs from tho leading London and Paris houses, making a scene of graceful shape and color for the allurement of the ladies who visited the parlors. Fred Irvine & Co. It was most surprising to note the great success attending the opening of Fred Irvine & Co., and to see so many of the most expensive pattern hats being sold so early In thc day, the show room of tho millinery department cm the second floor being crowded with ladies all day purchasing from the most excellent stock of imported pattern and trimmed hats. Miss Edith Schupp, the firm's now milliner, who has just arrived from Portland to take charge of this department, showed many of the leading shapes and styles, and remarking that In spite of the unusual early showing the variety in thc new spring chap eaux is little short of amazing and that the largo, artistic shapes turned up at the sides will again bo favorites. They aro shown in all the fino straws, bearing marked resemblance to the Grande Mademoiselle, Louis XIV. and Trianon hats of last season, The ever popular bonnet-like toque With the tiny rims and high pointed crowns will again score. Helmets, entirely made of tiny flowers, are a specialty at Carlier Salon, nnd the madatne predicts a brilliant future to both the small and tho Jarg* flowers; the former she employs In the shape of stiff cockades, or arranged In dense wreath effect cither over the upper or under the edge of wide hat brims. Thc derby for a ready-to-wear hat is to be most worn, and no doubt will be a general favorite along with tho large sailor hat, which this year will be good. Many hats in the new Nacre braid effects are good and are at the present time here to stay, as many combination.'* of shading, are brought together in m:iking the trimming unique. The leghorn hat with black velvet trimming is shown as one of the lending walking hats and the Georgette taffeta silk hat in gunmetal shades with single flower trim are to be worn for early spring. This season is not to bo a feather season, and will only be used in un- doeided quantities.*.' Wings, will, be seen in largo variety and numbers, but whether they will go on finding favor or not Is an open question, Osprey mouths and fancy ornaments form a large factor In the trimmings. It is believed that this seasop will be most successful and the later ideas for the white- nnd -light shades for Easier opening are looked for. Miss Hanlin. At Miss Hanlin's parlors many tasteful designs were displayed and a throng of ladies moved iu and out all through the day. Among the many new shapes could bo seen the attractive Tain crown which seems to be so very much in vogue this spring. Blocked shapes aro being used very extensively, Osprey still holds its own as a smart trimming and flowers arc going to be used profusely. Severer lines are shown only in the modish sailor shapes and for tbo most part considerable trimming Is adopted. All flower bats will be used largely this sou- son, and shot silk will also be largely seen. Fringed silks will be used as an effective trimming, Smart attractive models from Gage's and Phlpps' were on display.

BUDGET DEBATE COMES TO END Conservative Member Regrets That Bounties on Steel Are Not Renewed—Oliver's Attaok. OTTAWA,. Ont., March 14.—The budget debate came to a close tonight after two days' ,talk which commenced with tho speech of Hon. W. T. White yesterday afternoon, Tho discussion loday dragged -jlong quietly throughout tho afternoon but livened up in ho evening, when lion. Frank Oliver rossed swords In a verbal war with several of the Conservative members. At one stage of the proceedings such a row was created tbat the speaker had iippeal to the'members to observe closely the proprieties of debate. Mr. Jliver, will) his customary vchemancy, declared lhat Canada had been a big l0L*er by the rejection of reciprocity and that the government during Its five months of office had been negligent of the Interests of tho west. It had been slow in taking steps looking to the r.tlief of the grain bloekade and had injured thc Interests of the farmers by the changes made in thc Grain act. Tho Conservative reply was mado by W. P. Cockshutt, member for Brantford, who expressed regret that Iho minister of finance had nol seen his way clear to renew the bounties on steel. IL would, he said, have cost the country a couple of millions to ro- establish the bounties until the tariff commission makes its report. If the commission found that the bounties were not required they could then be abolished. Mr. Cockshutt declared lhat the defeat of reciprocity had been ii bleas*ng to Canada, and criticized the British preference as it exists at present, What was wanted, he said, was a give and take preference such as had been advocated by Sir Charles Tupper.
