KASLO, B. C, Oct. 15.—Kaslo's ■sixth annual fair was opened at 1 (o'clock today by Rowland Hunt, M. for South Shropshire, England, (who was introduced by A. Goldsmith, [president of the Fruit Krowers' asso- piation. The day was bright and clear Lnd large numbers came from outside points to see tho display of apples, plums, pears, vegetables and preserved Jfruits. The variety shown was quite equnl to other years and the coloring was ahead of last year. The packing especially was a great step In advance over last year, due to the interest taken by students in the packing classes taught last winter. The apple section was particularly fine, and tho increased productiveness of the surrounding country was exempli* lfled In a must practical and telling manner. The other wonderful resources of the district of which Kaslo Is the centre, were forgotten for 'a day, the marvelous wealth of timber, pulp wood, silver and lead, and the boundless agricultural and fruit grnwing possibilities so plainly demonstrated was on everybody's lips. The display was mado' in the drill hall. A fruit stage running centrally through the building hold the plate displays, and the beautiful coloring of the fruit made a pleasing sight. The vegetable section occupied tho left side and was filled to repletion with cabbages, turnlpn and' potatoes anil the entire list of farm produce. In tho centre uf each long wall was a stnge With sides sloping at an angle of 45 degrees. On these were shown the packing school exhibits, nnd the box exhibits in apples. The domestic section was shown at the rear end of the hall. A unique display was shown by Mrs. E. Norman of Mirror, Lake! It ■consisted of canned lake salmon, Ibrook and lake trout, char, grouse, ■rabbit, wild and tame, mountain goat jand chicken, nil canned in glass seal- ■ers. Two of the exhibits which at- Itracted' a great amount of admiration Iwere those of Mrs. A, T. Davis and iMrs. 13. Norman, both of Mirror Lako, ■who competed for the Oregon nursery ipfize of 50 cherry trees for the best (fancy display of fruits and flowers. Many on Excursion. Prospects for a fine day were none too bright when the Moyie steamed nway from her "Nelson moorings this morning at 7 o'clock, threatening rain clouds, low lying around the hills, presented a . decidedly gloomy aspect. Nearing, Proctor the clouds began lo lift and by the time the boat arrived here, King Sol was shining with a force worthy of his best July traditions, Three stops were made on the outward journey. Quito a number of visitors were taken on board at Proctor, Alnsworth and Riondel, the Moy- le's saloon and main deck space being crowded. ! Shortly before 11 o'clock lhe visitors were wervfing their way along the fair building where the fruit judges, H .Thprnbor and Ben Hoy, assistant horticulturists, from tbe department of agriculture were making the awards. The display of fruit was certainly excellent, apples of all varieties predominating. Potatoes', cabbage, squash nnd marrow wero host .in the exceptionally choice exhibition of vegcln- bles. Cut flowers, preserved fruits and meats, home baking and ladies' fancy work were particularly attract ive to the large number of lady visitors. Exhibition Opened. Judging the numerous exhibits took up tiie greater part of the afternoon and it was closo upon G o'clocji before Alex Goldsmith, president of the Kootenay lake fruit fair, introduced Row: land Hunt, M. P., for South ' Shropshire, England, who was present to officially declare tho fair open. Mr. Hunt, whu is a strong advocate of th« commercial defence of people and empire said ho was delighted to have the honor to say a few words on the magnificent fruit fair at Kaslo. He had traveled the United Kingdom, parts of America and South Africa and be could truthfully suy' he 'had never seen such' remarkable samples of fruit as were on exhibition here today. Old Country Market. "Where I live In the old country, there is nothing to approach it,*' continued Mr. Hunt, "and 1 hope the ranchers will strive for the old country market where there is always a demand for such high-class fruit as produced In the Kootenuys. There is nu difficulty in selling there and ut good prices. This is a great country well worth keeping for the white people of the British empire and although 1 am perhaps transgressing m y privilege, I should like to say that every mun, being a native of this country, should learn to protect his country. Field Marshal Earl ' Roberts will shortly visit these shores. We live in an age of great unrest and onu never can tell when we may bo Involved in war. While wo have such extraordinary natural resources, tho fact Is that they can not be developed without the protection of the Imperial forces, and I think the least we can do in return fur the benefits wa en- Joy is to sec to it lhat we give willingly tbe united support required lo maintain British prestige and freedom. "Agriculture is lhe greatest industry of any country and history tells us that no great country in tbe past- has kept its power and position for long, after it allowed its agriculture to be ruined. The Roman empire is the greatest example. It was the free Importation of agricultural produce into Italy from Rome's conquered colonies which made agricultural products so cheap that the hardy Itulian peasants were no longer able to mifke a living and so they were driven off (Continued on page three.)

The point at issue is whether duty is collectible on.sized lmi'V siiWji on three sides and planed on one side. Eugene Lafleur, IC, C, on behalf of British Columbia lumbermen, enlarged upon his contention of yesterday that the lumber on which duty was collected in order Lo constitute a test case had gone through more than one process • of manufacture and therefore is not entitled to free entry. Many questions were asked by Sir Charles Fltzpttfrick, chief justice and other judges and lt was apparent that tlie court regards thp matter of the interpretation of clause 504 of the customs act as a legal problem of considerable difficulty. Judge Duff said it wtnild be desirable to know just when representations had been made to the government in regard to thus importations nnd what decision the customs board had given on that point.

C, Oct. 15.—As an ndvanee step to what is hoped to be a more general system of aid to settlers in clearing timbered lands in this- province, the department of ag- icultyre has issued notification to the various agricultural societies and farmers institutions that It Is propai*- ed to Issue supplies of stumping powder to bona fide settlers free of cost upon conditions which shall be equitable both to the settler and to tho province. Any settler who is deslr- qs of benefiting from this' boon can obtain .details of how to secure It from his provincial representative from the secretary of his local agricultural society, of tho farmers institute or, falling both thoso, by direct application to the minister of agriculture, The suggestion hits been made that the government should assist '-settlers' by direct grant. That suggestion is under consideration. Meanwhile tlie prior step 1ms been taken of providing settlers with tlie material with which to attempt the work of stumping. This should be successful in view of the fact that the explosive material is provided and only the individual effort. Is required. But if this experiment does not give the results expected, then further action may be token by the government, but In tiie meantime the supply of free powder is. considered ns a distinctly advance step,. It is ono given by no othev province and is another proof of the dfcsire of the government to extend aid and co-operation to the settlers whero.lt can be done to thu public advantage. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) CHICAGO, Oct. 15. — Theodore Roosevelt was not merely superficially injured by the bullet fired into his breast yesterday In Milwaukee by John Sehrank, It was determined tonight by surgeons after an all day examination and the colonel must nol sec*. t or speak to anyone for several days Without permission of'the doctors. The wound was definitely described as a serious wound in the chest and "not a "mere flesh wound." The lute bulletin which prohibited communication between the colonel and others than his attendants, declared that "quietude is absolutely essential." The surgeons asserted, however, that it was not yet .necessary to probe for the bullet and the patient will probably be kept as calm as his nature will allow for several days. The patient slept well at Intervals during the day, ate ravenously of articles custoijiarily making up his blU |/of fare, read lengthy extracts from Maeaulay and hinted to his physicians that he would not object to a ride in the fresh air . Receives Correspondents. Finally, learning that tho correspondents accompanying him on his speaking tour who had left him after the assault to file their articles, had rejoined his entourage at the hospital, the colonel insisted that tho edict of his physicians against communication with him he ignured for tho time. He received the newspapermen with, an apology for not arising, Jested with them about his condition and told Ihem, "I'll hurry up nnd get out of here so I can keep you busy again." In opening the door to his room to admit the correspondents the heavy odor of heaps of flowers banked high in the ante room flooded the colonel's apartment and he inhaled deeply several times. The exertion caused a little pain and when the doos were shut again he instructed his nurse to present part of the flowers to other patients in tlie hospital. This was done. His doctors, however, did not feel inclined today to allow him to leave inside of 10 days so that ho might have no break in their minute watch for possible Infection from tlie bullet. Unofficially It was made known today that the physicians do not consider it necessary to. probe for or operate to remove the bullet. It lies, as shown by tlie X-ray photographs brought from Milwaukee, and corroborated here, not, far below the collar bone. The missile did not get inside the ribs, but ploughed upward and inward fur a distance of some five Inches from where it entered. The flesh along the course of tiie bullet showed no discoloration today nnd there appeared to the physicians no need for concern from any feature of the assault. Col. Roosevelt, anxious that his friends and particularly members of his family who were chroule to Chicago, should not be unduly apprehensive at bis condition, protested against the* edict barring callers from his room, but acceded when all the consulting physicians endorsed the plan. He was anxious to greet members of his family. The first ho was to see was his daughter, Mrs. All Longworth, who arrived from Cincinnati in lime to have dinner.with her father. His concern all day was not for himself but for those he believed were likely to be too foarful of his Condition. He renl all of the hundreds of telegrams that poured into the hospital, and was delighted with several from men of note ho met while abroad. Outside the hospital grounds, a curious crowd hung all day, asking for news from all the usual callers who left the Institution. Each was hailed as he left with an appeal for Inside information but none was available besides the bulletins posted early in the day. Meetings Cancelled. So many newspaper men gathered In the office of the hospital iu response to demands from their papers that they obtain fresh reports that the house authorities finally asked (hem to leave and the reporters gathered outside with the rest of the crowd. All of Col. Roosevelt's speaking dates were cancelled, save one tomorrow night at Louisville, Ky. To that city former Senator Bevorldge was sent after a conference with the candidate with the message tbe colonel insisted be rood to Ills friends there. No announcement regarding the future plans of Col. Roosevelt was made today, all such action depending upon Ihe length of time demanded of him by the physicians. Physicians 'Bulletins. Tonight's bulletin on Col. Roosevelt was as follows: "Records show that Col. Roosevelt's pulse is 80, his temperature 99.1!; respiration is 18; thnt be 1ms less puiu in breathing than he had In the forenoon; that he has practically no cough; that there has been no bloody expectoration. "We find him in magnificent physical condition due to his regular physical exercise, his habitual abstinence from tobacco and liquor. As a precaution- arv measure he has been given a prophylactic dose of anti-tetanus serum to guard against the occurrence of lockjaw. Leucoccyte count 8800, lymphocytes 11.5. (Signed) Dr. J. B. Murphy, Dr. Arthur Dean Ucvan, Dr. S. L. Terrell." Col. Roosevelt bade the last of his callers good night at 8 o'clock and prepared for a comfortable night, which was to be spent in part in reading. He said he felt fine and toid Dr. John I1'. Golden, who is keeping watch over him tonight, that unless the final injection of the tetanus anti-toxin interfered, he would have the "first real comfortable evening to himself" he lias enjoyed In many a day.

All profess that the Macedonian issues now are bound to be settled by force of arms and not by negotiations. One diplomatist remarked: "The note Is so stiff in form and its demands so excessive that it seems to have been drawn with the deliberate purpose of provoking a rupture with Turkey. "The note of the Balkans appears to have been devised to force Turkey ti declare immediately for peace or war. If It Is peace, she is called upon t.t demobilize instantly, and if she refuses her refusals are equivalent lo a casus belli. "The Balkans may decide to open l-.fstflities without delay. Every day gained by Turkey for mobilization adds to iier chances and lessens thos.-* of the Balkan league. Tho latter certainly realizes this and has framed its demands that admit only a categorical acceptance or a categorical rejection." "Which step dn you think the porte is likely to take?" "I fear the latter," was bis reply. "The Turkish people an* now so wrought up and the Ottoman cabinet, between war abroad and revolution at home, may cast the die in favor of a foreign war as the least dangerous in itself. It dare not, owing to the popular outcry, accept Italy's peace terms, although the Turks realize not only the futility of further resistance in Tripoli, but the additional handicap that the war with Italy means for Turkey in the Balkan crisis. "If the Turkish government, after year of uninterrupted defeat, does not dure to conclude peace on the sole terms Italy offers, what use is there of her being able to comply with the demand for immediate demobilization and the application of reforms under supervision in the Balkans which if liiis disregarded heretofore?"

"Friends," he began, "1 shall have to ask you to be as quiet as possible, as 1 de nut know whether you fully understand that I have just been shut, but It takes mure than that lu kill a bull moose. But, fortunately, 1 had my manuscript (holding up manuscript showing evidence where tlie bullet had gone through), so you see 1 was going to niake a long speech. "And, friends, there's the. hole in It where the bullet went through, and 11 probably saved the bullet, from going into my heart. The bullet is in me nuw, so thut 1 cannot make a very long speech. But 1 will try my best. And now, friends, I want to take advantage of this incident to say a sob emu word of warning, as 1 know how to. My felluw Americans, first of all I want to say this about myself: I have altogether tou many important things tu think of to pay any" heed o: feel any concern over my own death. Now, I would not speak to you Insincerely within five minutes of being shot. "I am telling you the literal truth when 1 say that my corncern is tor many other things.

' I have been able to do certain things thut 1 greatly wi. ,ied to do and I am Interested In doing other things. 1 can tell you with absolute truthfulness that I am very mucli uninterested in whether I am shot or nut. It was just as when I was colonel of my regiment; I always felt that a private was to be excused for feeling at times some pangs of anxiety about his personal safety, but I cannot understand a man fit to be colonel who can pay any heed to his personal safety when he Is occupied as he ought to be occupied with the absorbing desire to do his duty. "I am in this cause with my whole heart and soul. I believe In the Progressive movement—a movement for the betterment of mankind, the movement for making life a lot easier for all our people, a movement to try to take the burdens off the man and especially the woman In this country who are most oppressed. I am absorbed in the success of -that move ment. I feel uncommonly proud In belonging to that movement. Friend: I ask you now this evening to accept what I am saying as absolute truth when I tell you I am not thinking of my own success; 1 am not thinking of my life or of anything connected with me personally. I am saying this by way of introduction because I want to say something very, serious to our people, and especially to the newspapers. I do not know who the man was who shot me tonight.

(By Daily News Leased Wire.) NEW YORK, Ouct. 15.—Mis. 1'heo- dore Roosevelt was attending a musical comedy at a Broadway theatre last night at the time the. attempt was being made on her husband's life in Milwaukee . The news was broken to her as she sat in a box with a party of friends at the theatre. In fear that the announcement of the attempted assassination might be made from the stage ami be an unnecessarily great shock to the colonel's wife, George W. Perkins, chairman of the executive committee uf the Na- tiunal Progressive party, who was among the first to receive the news, had dispatched a messenger to Mrs. Roosevelt. Although assurances were given In the first dispatch that the colonel had not been seriously wounded, Mrs. Roosevelt was alarmed and immediately left the theatre, driving tu the Manhattan hotel. Here she awaited anxiously for further news from Milwaukee. She was considerably relieved by the early bulletins reporting that the colonel had been so slightly wounded that he was about to proceed with his schedulel speech for the evening. She was alarmed again later, however, when the wires told nf the removal of the colonel to a hospital and doubt among his physicians as to the seriousness of the wound. As to how Mrs. Roosevelt hud received the news, Mr. Perkins only said: "Just as such a strong woman as- Mrs. Roosevelt is would receive it.'' Colonel Roosevelt's son, Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., heard of the attack upon his father late last night and hurried to Progressive headquarters tn meet his mother and to wait details from Milwaukee. United States Senator Dixon ol Montana, Loose veil's campaign manager; William Hotchkiss, chairman of the New York state committee of the party; Timothy L, Woodruff and Frank A. Munsey were others who gathered at the quarters during the night. Mayor Gaynor when leaving lhe banquet which, as chief executive of the city, he had tendered tn the president and naval nfficors last night, had this to say on the attempt on tbe life of Colonel Roosevelt: ''There are too many assassins in this country. They have assassinated more people In this country In five years than they have in 500 years In England. I express my sincere regret." At Progressive headquarters George W. Perkins said: "Our last messages tn the colonel were ones urging him to give up his next two or three speeches and come home for two or three days' rest. We intend to urge this upon him:'' Mrs. J. West Roosevelt, who was with Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt at the theatre when the news from Milwaukee reached them, took, the .colonel's wife to'her home for -the-night)- after both women hud spent several anxious hours at Progressive headquarters. Although Mrs. Roosevelt bore up strongly under the circumstances, It wus evident that she was skeptical of the assurances that her husband was not seriously hurt. "That's what they said when President McKtnley was shot," she exclaimed, when these assurances were repeated to her time after time. TO INCREASE RURAL LABOR New Zealand Government Will Erect Homes on Small Holdings for Farm Laborers. (By Dnlly Newa Leased Wire.) CHRISTCHUROH, N. Z„ Oct. 15.— The government of New Zealand is about to introduce legislation to empower the county councils lo borrow money sufficient to supply the need of good lioiiies for laborers in rural districts, the farmers o'f the dominion having of recent years found themselves faced with the difficult problem of obtaining labor when it Is most urgently needed. The government itself contemplates steps to obtain hemes-for laborers accustomed to farm work who desire to live In the country rather than in the town. If a local body can present a reasonable guarantee that in .uiy neighborhood such homes will in. occupied by respectable persons, the government will erect them. The ureas of ground around the houses wonlil vary from one to 10 acres. By tbls scheme the New Zealand government hopes to provide sufficiently comfortable houses in open surrounding*" to Induce men to leave the towns and assist U'e. farmers in cultivating their land. The annual rent will be worked out In.the form of 5 per cent Interest on the money expended by the government in building, while a sinking fund will provide foi the paying ,off of the capital in 2.1 years. The farmers' union in Auckland has drawn up a somewhat similar scheme, which will provide Inexpensive farms for men. These will be gradually owned by the men themselves, and while cultivating their own ground to some extent, they will be able to give assistance to the big farm- en: in time of pressure.

His. end waa so swift and so sudden that the 30,000 spectators sat In silence nt Fenway park us they saw Wood's delivery butted to ol! parts of tho field and six Giant players race over the plate before tile last New Yorker was put out in the first Inning. The Red Sox never recovered from that first inning and though they peppered away fitfully at Tesreau's moist hall, they never came within threatening distance of tlie Giants. Shower of Hits. Manager MeGraw in the coaehors box down off third base, directed the attack on Wood's delivery. Ho gave orders to hit the first hall pitched und, with few exceptions, all of tho nine men.who confronted Wood in tlie first Inning, rapped the first ball that Wood sent up to the plate. This shower of hits, combined with a double Steal, paved the way to New York's six runs. Thereafter Wood was a broken rood' and Charlie Hall, Boston's, relief .pitcher, was sent to the; box. Some, of the Giants seemed to think that Wood had broken under the strain of his two earlier games in the series. His curve ball had little break th It and the Giants had nn trouble in batting his fast ones.

Our land grows larger crops per acre Of most kinds of grain than the land of other countries, and if we keep as much of our land under the plough and as well cultivated as other nations do, we shall not only grow most of our own food but we shall grow strong, healthful men and women to keep up the numbers and physical strength of our people, and to defend our race and country. "In England we allow other nations to use our country as a free market for almost all the surplus goods of tbe same kind as we produce ourselves, which they cannot sell in their own country. If the United Kingdom did not exist, foreigners would have no free market for their surplus competing goods. These surplus goods employ the working people of other countries instead of our 1 people and they are often sold cheap that our working people cannot compete witli them unless they ore willing to work for starvation wages. Unless tbe ranchers ond wheat growers of Canada combine to fight down the Influx of American products it Is probable that the some condition may obtain here. If we are to prosper as a great people of a superior civilized race. We must not only defend our country ngolnst invasion and conquest but we must defend our industries and the wages of our people against foreign aggression of all kinds. Cheap imported fruit of the same kind as w produce must mean cheap men and cheap women, because our people must either lose their employment altogether or take wages low enough to enable us to compote with the cheapest goods, and therefore the cheapest labor abroad. Self preservation is the first law of nature, and our working people must protect themselves and their race from the cheap labor ot the south even more than from tbe surplus and bounty fed goods of the great protected nations." Closely Fought Games. A very large number of the visitors took advantage of the delightfully fine afternoon and visited tbe recreation grounds. The greatest excitement prevailed, both baseball and football games being enthusiastically applauded throughout. Both games were closely contested and from a spectator's standpoint were excellent, the sympathizers of each team making themselves heard In no uhcertaih manner throughout each contest. Riondel proved the victor In the baseball match by a score of 4 runs to 3, while the Kaslo team wrested a hard fought victory from Proctor at football by a score of 3 to 2.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 16 j, , LOANS TO SETTLERS. > Hon .Price Ellison, who has given ninny striking evidences of hia thorough understand Ing of the needs of the.agricultural Industry of this prov- nce,' haa Come out strongly in favor if the proposal that the government ihouid come id the assistance of new settlors in the way of loans at a low rate of Interest. In the course of an ntervlew at Victoria recently, upon lis return from the upper country, ho e quoted as saying: It- is my firm conviction that if agriculture is to be properly developed In this province, some means must be found of supplying the farmers with'cheap money. The province has several million dollars on hand and I cannot see why It should not be loaned to the farmers at a low rate of interest Instead of being loaned to ' the' banks. "There Is no apparent reason why Mr. Ellison's suggestion should not be carried ihto effect, but should there be any objection to loaning government funds in the way proposed, it Is hard to see why money should not be raised for tho purpose on the province's credit and re-loaned to agriculturists as Is done in New Zealand, Australia and elsewhere. The whole matter, it may be added, has been more or less before the government for some time, but action in the matter, if any Is to be taken, will probably ■ be delayed until after the proposed agricultural commission has been appointed and has concluded its labors and made its report. ■ "When that commission Is engaged Opori -Us.work, }twould be well, therefore, -'if. all those interested would place before its members the necessity for some action along the lines of supplying, settlers -frith money, and at a! reasonable rate of interest, for the auvelopment of their properties. At present millions upon millions of dol- -itus .Worth of soil products are being Imported into British Columbia each j-ypar.. Thero Is no reason why practically all of these imports should not . ,be produced at home. All that pre- ' ivehts this being -done is the present iba'ckward state of agriculture in the j-pjovlnce, due to a very large extent, n4fl lack ot capital'on the part of those ^engaged in the industry. jt* Anything whioh the government imay do to assist agriculture In the "-way of loans to bona fide settlers will ibe a move in the interests of British Columbia and of all its people.

Sehrank ran a laundry at Sixth street and Avenue C and later moved away from the Tenth street address, in which neighborhood he was known as a rabid Socialist, although It was asserted that he was a peaceful sort of man. Often Sehrank used to talk at Tenth street and Tompkins park in an effort to enroll Socialists. He was extremely emphatic In these talks and extremely bitter ago Inst the wealthy. He was a member of a Hungarian society. According to Mrs. Mathilda Stern, who lives In the Tenth street house, Sehrank was a quiet man. He was fn tho habit of inviting men to his rooms en Sunday and talking over Socialistic doctrines with them. The description ol the man Who did tho shooting in Milwaukee was said to tally with that of the man who lived in the Tenth street house.

Zahel of Milwaukee county, tonight announced that John Sehrank, Col. Roosevelt's assailant, would be brought to trial until after the national election, Nov. 5. He said the trial would he opened somo time between Nov. 11 and 15. i Mr. Zabel who is said to be the only Socialist state's attorney in the country, gave three reasons for his decision to delay the trial for one month. Ho said first, that It was only reasonable to awnlt the result of Col. Roosevelt's injury; second, he had no desire to crowd the defendant and. third, he gave it as his opinion that it would be unwise to call the case during the final, struggle In the presidential campaign. "It Is my desire to try this case justly and expeditiously," said Mr. Zabel, "and this will be done, but we wish to avoid having the plain criminal aspects of the case In any way Involved in the national political situation. It would not be fair to any of the persons involved to do so. If he went to trial before election da^ It ia almost certain that the matter would be dragged into the campaign by one or another of the big parties." Discussing the case as viewed by him, the Milwaukee county prosecutor said that as far as surface Indications went, Sehrank wns sane. "If Sehrank Is Insane." said Mr. Zabel, "It seems that there Is a method in his madness when he selects for the scene of his crime where there 1.- no capital punishment. Also, I am informed In messages from New York there has been no Insanity in his family as far back as can be traced.

Rossland Mines Look Well. "Our Rossland mines," says the report of R. H. Stewart, general manager, " show an Increase in the amunot of ore developed with, we believe, high er averug? value, "In the Centre Star and Idaho mines hew oro has been developed t#n the second, third, fifth, seventh, eighth, 11th and 12th levels, the tonnage developed showing a slight Increase over shipments. "In the Wnr Eagle new ore has been opened up on the fourth, sixth, eighth, Ith. and 13th.:.levels,,ldeyelpp**n.ent on the-13t'b tev-sl' having'*been--espooiallj* satisfactory. Tbls ore was referred to in last year's report as having been opened uu by a winze sunk from tho 12th level. Tho total length of the ore body developed on the 13th level h; been in the neighborhood of 530 feet. The average value of this ore is high. There is also in the War Eagle ani Increase In tonnage of ore developed. "The St. Eugene mine has been practically closed down for the greater part of the year, although we arc mining a small amount of good grade on fro mthe upper levels. Improvement at Molly Gibson. "In the Molly Gibson mine operation? havo been, up to the present time, more or less limited but a considerable Improvement has been shown in the stupes during tho year. The prospects are good for a considerable tonnage of good ore in the old workings and prospecting on the surface bus opened up blghgrado ore at a distance of 3,000 feet from the present workings. In addition to this a crosscut tunnel, 920 feet long, driven 2*10 feet below thi lowest workings, has just encountered tho vein and drifting has been commenced thereon. The vein has been opened up for a length of 75 feet and Shows particularly good values. This fact, taken in connection with iho fncl that tliero is considerable good ore in tho bottom of the tunnel, 240 feel above, would make it appear that the ore reserves of tbis mine will shortly show a largo Increase." LoRoi of Great Value. Refferring to the purchase of the T'-1 Roi mine which was made during the year tho report says: "This property has been of great value to us tli, connection with out smelting operations both on account of the increased tonnage and lhe character of the ore which iiis been shipped besides having produced a reasonable profit on mining operations for tlie year." The principal oxpedlture on plant account, tho report says, was tbe Installation on Mark creek, near Klm- berley, of-a compressor plant operated by water power for the use of the Sullivan mine and other properties of tho company. At the Molly Gibson an additional compressor plant was Installed and changes were made to the mill. Additions to the copper flue, ,the rebuilding of the matte handling plant, extensive alterations to the lead sampling plant, additional tanks In. the lead refinery and the construction of a number electric traction lines nn-1 tunnels throughout the plant to fnclll- tato the handling of ore and materials are tho chief improvements made at tho smelter during the year. , Coal Strike Was Costly.' Under the heading of "general conditions," tho report says: During the first six months of the year the strike In the Crows Nest pass and the consequent high price of coke imported from Pennsylvania increased the expenses of operating to a large extent, coke Imported from Pennsylvania having made an Increase in costs for tho year estimated at $120,000. With the settlement of the strike this unfavorable condition disappeared. At tho closo of the strike the cost of electric power was Increased to an extent which will increase lhe expenses of the company approximately $40,000 annually. In spite of this extra expense, hnwjever, the year has been a moderately profitable one for the com*- pany largely on account of improvement in the grnde of ore shipped from the Rossland camp.

Perhaps I was rather disappointed, or perhaps It was merely that I was feeling decidedly shaky as a result of the desperate passage from Liverpool. .At any rate lt struck mo at first that the whole place was frightfully modern. The street cars, the hotels, the carriages and automobiles, with thdlr fashionable English nnd American occupants, even the pedestrians, seemed prosaically up to date. But this was ah Impression which did nut last; .for In tho native, quarters of the city you may see Cairo today as it was 1,000 years ago, and even on the most fashionable thoroughfares you will frequently witness scenes which will carry you back Into by-gone ages—scenes which the dominant modern note merely serves tb throw into strong relief. I have specially In. mind the old water sellers, with their ancient jars and goatskins thrown over their backs.

ETIQUETTE OF THE JUNGLE A moving picture firm has been taking some remarkable pictures al a water hole in Abyssinia of animals which come there from miles around to quench their thirst. It Is tho etiquette of the jungle for the elephant to drink first. No matter how many animals are around the water hole they all stand aside for the greatest beast of all. Many of the1 animals come 10 or 50 miles for a; drink, nnd there is a truce between even the most deadly enemies. After the elephant comes the rlil-. noceros. Although most of tho other animals observe the water hole truce' faithfully, two rhinos will fight over their precedence. The cinematograph operator obtained wonderful pictures of"two"6f these 'huge 'animals'going at it hammer and tongs. The fight only ended by one of the animals being killed. When the rhinoceros has finished the giraffes drink their fill, followed by zebras. Zebras always travel in herds and sometimes 40 or CO will arrive at the water Hole at a time. According to the etiquette of the jungle, however, they only come in fourth for the drinking stakes. The first four animals are fixed in order, but the rest get a drink just how and when they can.—Pearson's Weekly. A PLESING FROCK FOR GIRLS.

(By Dally News Leased Wire.) . INDIAN HEAD, Oct. 14.—The program for the visit of the governoi general's party here Is providing theii royal highnesses with one of the busiest and most varied and most Interesting of their whole western tour. At 10 o'clock this morning the civic address of welcome was presented at the city hall. In reply his royal highness said: "I hope you will transmit to tho municipalities you represent our best thanks for the welcome you have extended to me as well as to the duchess and my daughter, on the occasion of our visit to Indian Head. "My only regret is that I could nol be here in time to see the country before the harvest was -gathered, but I am glad to hear that tho results have been satisfactory, although I fear they were not as good as was at one time anticipated. "I trust that future years may bring bountiful crops and that you may lone continue In the prosperous condition you now enjoy." Nelson Shield. Next came the presentation by the duke to tho high school of tho Nelson shield, the gift of Lord Strathcona, made from copper from the flagship Victory.

Ottawa. would rebuild^ oldThospital One Isolation Building Should Be Torn Down, Says Dr. Arthur—Would Stop Coasting on Sidewalks. Need for better accommodation at the city Isolation hospital is urged by Dr. E. C. Arthur, medical health'officer, Jn his report to the city board of health for the quarter ending on September 30. He suggests that the old building be demolished and the material used next year for the erection of a new building. Coasting on sidewalks should be prohibited, declares Dr. Arthur. The report is: "During the quarter 33 cases of scarlet fever have been reported or discovered. These occurred in 17 houses. I believe five of these cases originated directly or Indirectly from a case said to have been diagnosed as German measles In June and not reported. At the close of tbe quarter there were eight cases In quarantine In four houses, "As It seems possible. If not probable, that one house was infected by clothing collected and distributed by the charity organization, I would recommend that in future no clothing be distributed unless H/ia first disinfected. "The only other^ disease reported during tho : quartet*, j >vaa mumps, of which.there; were 15. cnses.-i A\ rltv.not think that nearly ■all the cases wore reported. The last case was reported on August 13 and I know of no cases now existing. "In my last report I mentioned the need of a house of refuge in which residents of Infected dwellings could be sent while their houses were being disinfected. "When tho new fire hall Is completed the living rooms In connection with the old hall could well be used for this purpose. Also in the old hall could bo built at small cost a place for disinfecting conveyances. This should be done. "Tho last city patient In the Isolation hospital wns discharged September 23 and the new building disinfected. The old building is in such a condition that it cannot be satisfactorily disinfected and no attempt at disinfection has been made. I would recommend that this building be demolished, the material being preserved and next year used in erecting another permanent building similar to tho present new building thnt would provide all the isolation accommodation likely to be required for some time. "The isolation grounds should be cleared of underbrush, logs and loose stones. "As the winter season Is approaching I wish to call attention to tho dangerous prnctlco nf coasting nn intersecting streets. If this is not stopped thero Is likely to be some serious accident. Coasting on sidewalks should be strictly prohibited. "Tho city can make some saving by purchasing disinfecting materials in quantity. I would recommend the purchase by tender of 30 gallons of formalin, guaranteed '10 per cent, and 100 cabs of formangiiniite briquettes." STRIKES IN'EAST DELAYW0RK HERE New Lighting System Will Nat Be Completed Until February—Effect Saving At Power Plant. Because of strikes in Cincinnati Where the Iron standards which are to bo used in installing the new lighting system on tho main streets and on account of tho failure of tho British manufacturers to deliver tho 5,000 feet of lead cable on time it Is likely tljat tho work will be so delayed that it will not be completed until possibly the end of February, although Herbert P. Thomas, city electrical engineer, hopes to have some blocks illuminated with tho three-ball tungstens during January. About two blocks have been wired In readiness for the continuance of the work but the delay In the arrival of the materials has practically placed operations at a standstill. Alterations at the power plant, according to figures made public yesterday, cost $2,263.82, a saving of 11,746.1)1 on tho estimates. The improvements mado include the Installation of the concrete floor on tne thrust deck of No. 2 unit, which has proved successful, said Mr. Thomas, In stopping the vibration of tho steel girders on tho floor. During tho first nine months of this year revenue from the electric light plant has increased 13,980:02 over the samo period lust year, while tho aver- ago "lood" carried, whicli practically represents tlie powor and light consumed, was 6 31.4 8 kilowatts for the nine months of this year, against 673 Special "Pay Day" Sale JAPER CENT. £H REDUCTION On All Men's Clothing, Furnisn)ngs'& Shoes Those who want to make"the dollars go the farthest will welcome this exceptional offering.

Another crowded audience at the ■opera house last evening witnessed thu production of Hiss Verna Foi ton and the Allen Players In "The Third Degree," u 'four-act dramatization of the well known hovel Illustrating the working*1 of the third degree by the New York police 'force In their dealings with the criminal olass. ), Tho Royal Hungarian Quartette, under tho direction of JOB Schranko, again delighted the audience with their musical Selections. The musicians appeared to enjoy their own music and smilingly acknowledged the applause which greeted -their efforts. | Between tlie acta Miss Hmlars, whpae [rendition of popular ballads during the Inst season of tho Allen Players haro was so well received, sang two solos last night with most pleasing effect and was .warmly encored. -j'Tho costuming and scenery of the play last night was all looked after with tha mice attention to detail for which the ■Allen Players are famous. 1 As "Annie Jeffries," Miss Felton appeared to most excellent advantage, but fie on tho previous evening when "The *Glrl From Texas" was presented, tho Jeadlng lady's part called for no sustained dramatic effort, at the same time tho Character showed tho winsome little lady In a very pleasing light and She charmed 'iho audience by her clever acting from start to finish. J "The Third Degree" Is a strong play full of striking-dramatic situations, all *Jf which Miss Felton made the most ol* 'to the delight of the audience, which completely filled tho body of the house where standing room only was the older pf tho evening. A word of oxtra pralsa 'Is duo tho management for the elaborate Stage setting of lhe whole nlny. Infinite ■trouble was taken to havo every detail 'looked after, and tbe result was a mo- jHuctlon that would have done credit in any of tho big eastern cities of tho con tinent. Mr. Mitchell, the leading man of the company deepened tho already good im presslon ho made hero tho first night and had more opportunity last night to make good before a Nelson audience. The rest of the company rendered most excollont support and It can be fairly said thero was not a weak snot in the production. The company will present tills evening. "A Contented Woman, * based on the suffragette question and said lo be extremely funny, and now produced for tho first time in Nelson, and with the attractive bill presented there Is certain to be another crowded house. The province nf the stage In the past has been to entertain and educate. Of late, what Is known OS drama has fallen into decay—hence Shakespearean plnya are seldom enacted on the stage. The public lias taken more kindly to musical and novel entertainments, that do not ra- qulro deep thought to comprehend; hence anything that is both novel and musical attracts the public more today than at other period in our natural history. The Royal Hawaiian Musical & Novelty company, coining to the opera house, Nelsoil, on Monday, Oct, 21, is announced as a unique, novel entertainment of quality. The Kanakas render the music of their country, Hawaii, on the native Instruments and In an Incomparable manner. For an American to attempt to imitate It would lie folly. The songs and dances are eqiiftliv novel, they are In a class by themselves and of the very highest artistic excellence. Hawaii now Is a part of America. Tlie lato royal entertainers to Kln-r Kalakana and Queen Lllitiokalnnt are released from their former wilful or un wilful associations: and they are now true Americans anil are at liberty to entertain whomsoever they please. ■ In addition to the Hawaiian portion of the entertainment Otto Wels, the famous German comedian and aceoidian player, is a feature that will command moro attention than any one who has been scan here In the past, for Mr. Wels, in h|s Illustrated songs of all nations, and rendering ids own muslo on the famous German accordlan that he used ub an entertainer of loyalty, is ono of the mo3t novel, pleasing and high-class inusic.il numbers that has ever made a tour at the hands of any aitlst in the Unitc-p\ States. The lady violinist Is another pleasing feature of the hill of which tlvc people never tire, and her rendition o! the different numbers Is high class and' of artistic excellence.
