Feb. 10.—Stanley Barrack* it shaken by a -sensation arising out of the brutal beating of Trapper J. Bowen of the Royal Canadian Dragoons by a number of hit comrades, says the Star Weekly. The article continues: "They took him out of hit room, ■"•tripped him partially and laid on their whips until hit back was oov- ered with welts and he was rendered unconscious. Then, evidently te reartvt him, they threw him toito a snow bank, but that falling, he wu carritd into the medical detention room ef the barracks, where he was revived. An unofficial and entirely Illegal "barracks room court-martial" had Bat on Bowen's alleged offence, and condemned him to 10 strokes of the whip. He probably got -several more than that. Tale Bearer Twtota Story The "offence" for which Bowen wns whipped Waa that he had made remarks in a Baptist church meeting concerning the difficulty of living a Christian life amid military surroundings and. with drinking and gambling going on about him. But It appears that, as If usual with the mob rule brand of Justice, the men made a mistake. The tale bearer who carried them the story of Bowen's remarks made It appear as though he was speaking directly of Stanley barracks and his own comrade*. Bowen's version ls that he was speaking more of his experiences with the American army of occupation ln tht Rhine district after the war closed. Punishments have already been meted out to a number of the men concerned In the brutal affair. Investigation hi going on In regard to several -others who are implicated. Colonel Oilman, officer commanding at the barracks, has' probed the matter and) handed out the following sentences: A lance corporal who failed to report the affair to his superior officer promptly, is reduced to the ranka The man who admits wielding the whip on Bowen gets 28 days' detention at hard labor, and loses 28 days' pay, $47.60. Four men who admit being presont at the court-martial draw 14 days' detention at hard labor and lose 14 days' pay, 123.10. Three other men are being* investigated, and they may be cast out of the army altogether. But the remarkable thing about the matter ls the attitude of Bowen toward his assallanta He refuses to accuse them. The young soldier says the men who so cruelly beat him did not know the facts, and were misled into the belief that he had deliberately went out of the barracks and condemned his unit. Their pride ln their regiment had been toilohed. Bowtn oame to Toronto a few months Jgo and joined the Dragoons. He was a good living man, and had remonstrated with one or two soldiers quartered near him concerning their conduct. One of these men is said to have followed him to church and Is said to have' returned to the barracks with a tale aJbout what Bowen had said ln church about the unit. Bowen Is still }n the hospital, and it will be iomi days before he will be around.

LONDON, Feb. 10—The new -government will face parliament Tuesday with the onerous task of steering a safe course against an adverse majority, and its life depending upon whatever assistance may be accorded it by the large Ltberal party. Premier Ramsay MacDonald, whose health Is not the best, ls -spending the week-end revising the -speech In which he will announce the policy of hie government. The three weeks' recess since the Labcr government was formed has been all too short, It Is sold, for the various committees of the cabinet to prepare all the necessary work and define the detailed tines of policy for the ensuing session. Therefore it Is not unlikely that the premier's speech may prove to be rather a general outline of policy than a detailed program of legislation. Give Liberal* Underpoet The first -business of the house Tuesday will be the election of a chairman and a deputy chairman of committees. In this a concession Is to be made to the Liberals with a view to securing their goodwill. The government Is expected to propose a Labor member, Robert Toung, as chairman, but leaving It to the Liberals to choose a member of their party aa deputy chairman. Parliamentarians are watching with great Interest the developments ln this new experiment of a Labor government, and that a minority government, ln the task of administration, which Is likely to tax the premier to the utmost. (Still, It ls con- ceiled (hat the government sum under far more hcpeful auspices than seemed possl-bte s month ago. The first test of the tamper of the house seems likely to arise quite early, and will be concerned with what the government's opponents characterize as the first Socialist move on the part of the Labor government. Reverse* Relief Policy The new minister of health, Jchn Wheatley, who belongs to the extremist Clydeside group, has given the Poplar guardians a sort of free hand ln the distribution of relief to tha unemployed, thus completely reversing the policy pursued hy his predecessor. The Conservative opposition ls expected to attack this move, rn the ground of its Socialistic tendency, and curiosity has arisen on two points—first, how for Premier MacDonald will support his extremist colleague; and, second, whether Mr. As-quith and th« Liberals will treat Mr. Wheatley's activities with benevolence or will vote against them. Fn the' latter case, the premier might see himself obliged to drop his extremist Ideas.

LEAMINGTON, Ont., Feh. 10.—The fate of seven men and a woman who set out Thursday morning to traverse the nine miles of treacherous ice between Point Pelee, Ont., and Pelee Island, in Lake Erie, ls tonight uncertain. Fears are expressed by many that shifting winds may have disrupted the ice fields and engulfed the pnrty and their frail boats.

Coming from the bush the deer carelessly rambled down Gordon street to Foyrth street, where, seemingly not fancying the mud, it took to the sidewalk and trotted down a block to Third street. There the doe again took to the road and becoming somewhat alarmed at the surroundings tt dashed toward the park, where It ran into the fence beside the railroad. Eventually the deer got Into the LakeBlde park, where it took to the water and swam to the north shore. Numerous residents of Fairview saw the animal pass by and passengers on the ferry watched with interest the animal swimming across the West A rot.

The run was OTdered for J. A. Thomas, provincial fire marshal, who was In the city over the week-end. Following the demonstration, Mr. Thomas expressed himself as highly pleased with the local fire department. The stretching of the hese and efficient way in which the truck was handled was a credit to the city, declared the fire marshal. An alarm was rung tn from Box No. 23, at the corner of Baker and Ward streets, at about 2:25 o'clock tn the afternoon, and the truck responded instantly, one stretch of hose having been connected up before the members had been pealed out by the gong. Needless to say, a huge crowd "sprang from nowhere" at the sound of the bell, and the trial run was watched with Interest by tho large crowd. The firemen were under the charge of Assistant Chief J.

Feb. 10.—Great Britain may soon start an airplane service direct to India requiring only 100 hours for the trip from London, said Major-General Branokner, director of civil aviation of the British air ministry, before leaving for home yesterday on the steamer Orduna, after a holiday ln thia country- General Branckner expressed con fldence in the success of the British project. Tommy Rogers, local welterweight, on Saturday night added another victory to hts belt, and incidentally garnered in the title of welterweight boss of the Canadian northwest Rogers went 10 rounds with "-Joe Mooney of Calgary in a slow but clean bout which was Rogers the whole way through. Mooney was, however, a dangerous man, and had it not been for Rogers' excellent footwork and side-stepping there might have been a different tale to relate today. Mooney, who fought at 148 pounds, the same weight at which Rogers entered the ring, carries a wallop which will produce sleep any time it connects. The visiting battler also clearly showed that he could absorb punishment and then give some. He was not, by far, as finished a boxer ae Rogers, and therefore he could not keep up with the local boy's speedy work. Mooney seemed con - tent throughout the bout to waltz around the ring; take a blow or two on the head, jaw or shoulder with the chance of getting an opening ln which to slip ln a sleep producer. He has a splendid pair of shoulders and can hit with either hand with sledge-hammer force, and Rogers was aware of this fact on Saturday night; hence his careful tactics throughout the entire bout. 'Rogers Has Big Margin Rogers easily Won the bout on points, and after the sixth all that was necessary was that he keep away from Mooney's swings. In all. Mooney took but one round; Rogers five, and the balance were even. Only once was Rogers in danger, and that was when Mooney broke through and landed a terrific left- hand blow to the ribs. Rogers declared following the bout that It was the hardest blow he has ever stopped In a local ring. At times both boys would stand and look at each other as If Jockeying for a position in which to land. Mooney tried several Btunts to get Rogers to lead a right, but to no avail. Mooney waB dangerous ln the last round, and the fans were on their feet throughout the three minutes, He forced matters for the first minute and had Rogers guessing. The local lad, however, came back strong, and was hammering away at the end of the bout. The bout was by no means a on**- sided affair; It was strength against Merchants Who Don't Advertise Pay the Bills of Those Who Do G)0 "The manufacturer or the dealer who does not advertise pays for the advertising of his enterprising competitor. "Business is drawn away from the non- advertiser; profits he might have secured go to the competitor; business dwindles. "Instead of paying for your competitor's increased business, why not pay for your own? "Good quality merchandise, bought from a manufacturer who believes sufficiently in his goods to advertise their worth and help you sell; a well-balanced stock, a well-arranged store, intelligent clerks, SERVICE; a square deal and common sense. That's the foundation. "The public will soon learn where to come for the things they want—or rather, the things you create a desire for through advertising.

The Daily News NELSON, B.C. PHONE 144 (Two Lines) Covers the Territory Thoroughly •f - --- -"• science, and science proved the victor. The following is a running story of the fight, by rounds: Mooney Waiting for Opening Round 1,—Rogers opened up with a few little taps to the head, and put in two nlco left Jabs to the head, ooney swung over a terrific right swing, but Rogers was not there. Rogers tried a left uppercut, but It was light; he then used a left upper- out, and crossed with his right to the head. Mooney was walking around the ring, seemingly waiting to park a sleep producer. Rogers clapped over a left to the head which Mooney took on the shoulder. Rogers rushed with a right and left to the head, and put Mooney to the ropes. He then tried a hard right uppercut, but Mooney steppeil away. Rogers was forcing the battle the whole round, and the visiting battler connected but a few times. Rogers' round. Lots ef Waltzing 'Round 2.—-Rogers jabbed with his right to the face. He lead a left, and crossed over a right to the head. Rogers landed to the ribs, and Mooney, seizing the opportunity of Rogers at close quarters, put over a wicked left to the head which Rogers felt. Rogers came back with a left to the face. The round was one of waltzing and little rpal action, fans at times calling for more pep. RogerB forced the round, while Mooney connected but once. Rogers' footwork was too much, for Mooney. It was Rogers' round. Mooney Conn-sets Hard Round 3.—Rogers put over a left jab, but hts uppercut was blocked. He connected to the head with a left and to the Jaw with a right. Mooney, coming in on Rogers, put him to the ropes with a terrific left to the body. It stung Rogers, who came back strong and put ln two lefts to the head in rapid succession. Mooney landed a right to the head and got in several healthy body blows In a clinch, RogerB jabbed to the jaw. Mooney's blows In this round were hard, and tested Rogers. The local boy's wallops seemed to have little effect on the viBltor. The round was even. Round About Even Round 4.—Rogers opened the round strong, putting over two left jabs to the face. He hooked a right to the jaw and crossed with a left to the body. Mooney Jabbed with his right to RogerB' face and started terrific left to the body, which Rogers side-stepped.

The round was even. Tough Stuff Round 6/—Rogers came out with three left Jabs to the face, and then waltzed back. Mooney was covering well. He swung a right at Rogers, who ducked the blow and came up with a right to the Jaw. Mooney dropped |his har*)ds and stuck out hia chin as lf inviting Rogers to hit him. Rogers smiled and danced back, avoiding the "tough stuff." The round was quite slow, Rogers being careful and blocking several of Mooney's rushes quite ef fectively. It was Rogers' round. Visitor Hits Hard Round 6.—RogerB commenced Jabbing with his right, and landed two healthy wallops to the head and jaw. Mooney started a right swing, which would have sent Rogers chasing the birdies had it connected. Rogers, as before, was not in line. Rogers landed hard with a left to the Jaw. Mooney put over a right Jab and a left to the ribs. Rogers came back with a left and right cross to the head. Mooney, rushing in, put over a stinging left to the head, which rocked Tommy and put him against the ropes. Mooney all through the round waltzed around, taking blows to the head and then watching his chance for a forceful blow to the head or body. The round was even. Rogers Steps Out Round 7.—Mooney tried a left to the chin. Rogers put over his left and right cross to the Jaw. ami came right back with a left to the head. He caught Mooney with a left to the Jaw, and landed with his right to the chin. The fans Wat* warming \\\>, and Rogers, who was going good, landed two healthy lefts to the head. Mooney jabbed with a left. Rogers stepped better in this round than In any previous round, his lefts telling on Mooney, who was in excellent shape, however. Mooney was still content to take ft few in the chance that he might land a K.O. Rogers by thla time waa leading well in points. It was Rogers' round. Mooney Takes Lead Round 8.—Mooney opened the round with a right to Rogers' head, sending the local boy backward. He Jabbed Rogers with his left, and the bout became more exciting. Roger*-, however, ducked Mooney's right and seemingly somewhat sore he tore at the visitor, landing a right and left In rapid succession with such force that he threw himself off hia balance and fell to a sitting posture on the floor. He took the count of four and came up, aide-stepping Mooney's right. Mooney missed ft right .awing. Rogers put over a left with a right cross to the head. It was Mooney's round. Mooney was showing better, and his blows were harder and more effective than were Rogers*. Rogers' Blocking Effective Round 9.—The pair exchanged lefts, Rogers connected to the body with a left, and Mooney missed a right. Mooney, however, connected with a left to the body. Rogers put over a hard left swing to tho Jaw. He again repeated the blow and blocked Mooney's advance. He blocked Mooney'a right and landed two stinging lefts to the head! Mooney did very little in this round. He took a lot of blows on the shoulder in covering his jaw, and his blows were not as effective as in the early portion of the bout. It waa Rogers' round. Rogers Wins Tenth Round 10.—This was probably the most exciting of the 10 rounda. Mooney camo out for business and stepped in with a left to the body. He put over a weak right and left when he had Rogers in a clinch. He started a terrific, right at Rogers but mlsied and went to his knees. He, however, got In a right to the ribs. Rogers was dancing away repeatedly. Rogers came out with a right to the Jaw wtth some force, and then landed to the chin with his left. Mooney missed a right, and Rogers put over n right and left to the head tn rapid succession, then trying a left to the chin. Mooney connected to the tkts with a right, and Rogers lander to the chin as the gong ended the bout. The round waa even. Prslims Fast Three excellent preliminaries were staged before the main hopt, and the second preliminary, between Roy Bradshaw and Ed Parker, proved the best on the card. At the snd of every round the boya received quite an ovation from the fonu. Bradshaw has Improved wonderfully since his first appearance, and he certainly did some slugging, as did his partner. A draw decision proved most popular to the boxers and fans alike. Stan Alibone and Alex Ionian put up a good bout in the semi-final, both mixing freely. Alibone was at' a disadvantage as far as reach went, but he put up an excellent Bhowing. A draw decision was also popular with the fans. Harold Chapman and Jimmie Lowder werft three rounds in the opening preliminary bout, Chapman taking the decision. The bout was not onesided by any means, but Chapman's left proved too much for Lowder. Jack Cullen refereed the preliminary bouts, while Joe Holland handled the main event.

It was the final celebration In a week of welcome to the Chinese New Year. Seldom for many years has so big a fireworks display been given by local Chinese, who used the Chinese Masonic building as the headquarters for the affair. Members of the Chinese National league, an opposing party, did not partake of tho celebration. Firecrackers of all dimensions and sizes were set off for a period lasting from three-quarters to one hour. Tho celebration starting at about 8:30 o'clock made it suitable for numerous citizens, both young and old, to watch the festivities. Long lines of crackers were set off, suspended in the air from wires strung from poles, three or four bundles being touched ■>ff at a time. Pinwheels snd mli-la- Luro skyrockets were also touched off. At about 9 o'clock the celebration ended, and the Chinese carried on their celebrations indoors.

Thomas, provincial fire marshal for this province, pronounced the Nelson opera house as safe and wound, both from a structural, and, with a few Improvements, from a fire point of view. The announcement waa made following a thorough inspection of the building by Fire Marshal Thomas, Chief M. H. Maloney of the Nelson flro department, Alderman J. K. Mackenzie and Alderman J. P. Morgan, members, of the city council who are the fire wardens for the year. George Horstead, manager of the opera house, accompanied the inspectors. Following the Inspection Fire Marshal Thomas stated that the building was structurally sound and that •'be foundations were as good as the day they were put in. The building was an up to the standard opera house of the time it was built, the name building could not bo built un- ler the present laws. It was well supplied with exits and the sifety. *ie declared depended chlufly upon the housekeeping conditions of the building.

He has lta) ordered that the wiring all 'hrough tha hOtttt be Inspected and made good. Hefore the house ls again opened Chief Maloney has been inu: meted to make a thorough investigation anil see that all things are satisfactory according to the fire laws. Another regulation which haa been made by tho marshal is that a uniformed fireman be stationed in the opera house during each and every performance. Mr. Thomas stated that he- would not be Justified in closing the place, as the bid Id lng was the only center for showing in the city, and was ,n U good, If not better, condition than numerous other public buildings around the city. He, however, objected quite forcibly to having a .paint shop adji hiing the opera house | butklint**. Thin, he declared, was a fire menace of the worst kind. I Chief Maloney also expressed hlm- ■*■*"*If as nttefled with the building from ■ Mructunil point of view.

The Irisptvtion wns made '■ from the frftffftntnl up and in several place:; the firemen tore up the floor and other hoard.-*. Chief Maloney stated that the paint shop adjoining the building was one of the main reasons tor his recommendation that the building be shut down. Manager Oeorge Horstead stated Saturday that the necessary repairs would be made immediately. "1 am thoroughly satisfied with the treatment accorded me while I was In Nelson," stated Joe Mooney, the Calgary boxer, who lost a decision to Tommy Rogers cn Saturday night. "I had heard a lot about your little clt*"* and am certainly convinced that It is all that Is said about it.

He, however, accumulated a fortune, and one of his activities today is directed toward finding a plan for world peace. The United States senate took upon itself to summon Mr. Bok to tell how much money was being spent on the plant. There wu political suspicion that harmful propaganda of some sort was being disseminated. Mr. Bok rightly refused to say what amount of money was being spent He assured his inquisitors that he had-established a trust fund considered ample for the purpose, but he did not care to divulge the amount on the ground that it Was a private matter. He further pointed out that his interest in finding a plan that would assure permanent peace to the world was based on the assumption that as he had personally prospered he owed something to the country, and he took this method of repaying the obligation.

A low tax rate is often considered to be a sign of success and progress. But it is useless to discuss at what figure the tax rate stands, says the Canadian Municipal Review, before knowing what is the value put on the property by the assessors. The question of taxation is, theoretically, very simple. A municipality faces the expenditure of a certain amount This has to be met by taxation. The object of making a valuation is simply to have every proprietor pay his proper share. It does not matter whether the assessment is made on 10, 60 or 100 per cent of the actual value, so long as everyone is treated in exactly the same way. The tax rate will vary with the valuation, but will be the same for all. And if the valuation is on a 50 per cent basis, then the tax rate will be double that of one based on a full valuation. So it is useless and misleading to compare tax rates, without also comparing the basis of valuation. Another feature in such comparisons between different provinces is that in Quebec— except in the city of Montreal —the municipal tax rate does not include that for education, aa it does elsewhere. School taxes in Quebec are not levied by the municipal councils, nor collected by them; but by school commissioners. So that the comparison of municipal taxes in the province of Quebec with those in other provinces is misleading. j , youth It may event perk up a bit.

A Simple Life-Savins Method (Registered In accordance wKh the Copyright Act.) Some yeare ago _ was ta'ten out to the life-saving motor boat on the bay, where the police officers were attempting to resuscitate - woman by means of the pulmotor. She had been ln the water nearly an hour, and unfortunately we were unable to bring her around. I questioned the officers, and found that they had used the usual methods of getting the water out of the lungs before applying the pulmotor. The thing that struck me was the great advance that had been made in the last few years in restoring the apparently drowned and suffocated, A few yeara ago about four people Were required to look after such a case. One would apply artificial respiration by moving the arms from the sides of the body up over the head; another would rub the hands and feet Still another would take hold of the tongue by means of a handkerchief and move It In and out to Induce breathing. A fourth would go for the physician. Now but one person ls needed, and even without the aid of a pulmotor hundreds are restored to Mfe by means of what ts known as the Schftfer method. The patient ls laid on his abdomen face to one side. The operator kneels across the patient, facing his head, and applies his hands to the lower part of the back at the short ribs. He then presses or throws the weight of his body slowly on this point, thus squeezing on the chest and expelling any air.

Assume that husband and wife each earn $5000 in a year. Should they file separate or Joint Income tax returns? If they filed a Joint return, under United States law they would pay normal tax on $8000 after their $2000 exemption. This would amount to 4 per cent on the first $4000 and 8 per cent on the remaining |4000. or |480. In addition, they would pay a surtax on $10,000, which would amount to $400, making a total tax of $520. On a separate return there would he $5000 minus $1000 exemption for each of them. Thus they would pay a normal tax of 4 per cent on $4000, or $160 apiece, but no surtax. This would mean a total saving of $200. Evidently, then. It would pay to choose the separate return In most cases where the In-nine of each, or either, Is under $«wO0.

It was an lnterleague fixture, the last between these teams this winter, and resulted in the Sheiks taking the four- game series five points to Vancouver's three. Harry Cameron's glittering performance for the Sheiks was just that little bit between victory and defeat. He scored three of the locals' four goals, and gave Cook the opportunity to score the winning counter. The first period ended one all, and Cameron gave the Sheiks the lead ln the second, which ended 2 to 1 for the Sheiks. Cameron again scored at the start of the third period, but before the frame was three-quarters finished the MaroonB had knotted the count. Cook's goal then won the gamo. It was one of the most Interesting and exciting games played here this winter. The teams had an equal share of the play, and either would have been a good winner. In addition to Cameron, Mickey MacKay was the outstanding performer. He played sterling hockey while he was on the Ice, but due to recent \ illness he was not able to stay on very long. • Summary First period—1, Saskatoon, Cameron from Relse, 6:10; 2, Vancouver, Boucher, 6:06.

The game was one of the nip-and-tucjt kind, with little separating the teams at any stage. The result was in doubt till the final bell had sounded, and only a careful and stubborn defence kept the aggressive Tiger attack from tying the count in the final moments. The game was one of the tamest seen here this season in the professional schedule. Referee Marsh was not called upon to inflict a single penalty. The outstanding feature of the game was the work of Forbes, the Hamilton "goalie. He had much more work to do than Benedict, and some of his saves were phenomenal. Summsry First perlod-^No score.
