Capt. James Alexander embarked i the HI-fated ship on her last outbound run from the Yukon. The Princess Sophia drove hard on the rocks of Vanderbilt reef October 24, 1818. Two days later word reached V m that the slip had been broken up by the heavy seas, with a loss of her passengers and crew totaling 34S souls. Two Dead In Alexander Cabin Later, in the work of recovering the bodies, rescuers came on the bodies of a man and woman In the cabin assigned to Captain and Mrs.' Alexander, and his death was pre- i8ume(d before the local courts. Years o*f litigat'on followed as to the Inheritance of the mine, in which the claim of the kinship of the relative of Captain Alexander and Mrs. Alexander contested bitterly the right of Inner tance. The inmate in the Oklahoma j state lunatic asylum not only as- >. serts that he Is Captain Alexander in person, but tells with con- j siderable detail events which are known to have occurred in the life of thB. famous mine operator. Victoria Sending Photos I The provincial author ties are forwarding photographs and data to Khe officials in charge of the Okla- loma state .lunatic asylum In the ,ione of clearing up the mystery.

This fact, however, does not decide the Issue, as it wns a local option measure, ond 23 electoral districts voted for beer with 17 against. The total vote far .beer was 73.OS0 nnd against it 73,7»4, a drv majority of 1714. There were 7659 spoiled ballots. What will happen as a result the beer plebiscite is as much a matter of doubt now as ever. The vote has only served to make the beer situation more complicated, more difficult for the government to handle than before. While no government announcement on the matter has been made, it Is understood tho whole Issue will be left to the legislature to decide.

France was a great French literary master, yet he wp.s a very human man, given to gossip, serluos about small things, light-hearted about weighty matters, tolerant, kindly and Ji;st, and a most charming conversationalist. Thus he came to be called "le bon maltre" by hit* frionnds. Master of Style France achieved his wonderful mastery of the French language by hard work. It is related nf him that his first proofs from the printer wore only the beginning, He wrote his matter time nnd time again, "weeding" as he called it, changing sentences ruthlessly, and with shears changing tho position and sequence of sentences, "lt is a matter." he once said to a friend, "of tearing up the ugly 'that' 'which', 'whose', 'of which', and 'of whom'. "These, my young friend, give a; stiff-necked air to tho best styles, Banish also the semicolon, that bastard period which is neither period | nor comma. lt was exactly the \ tiling lor un age of compliments,; harangues, and funeral orations. It marked rest before the period. Now we are in the age of the telephone' and the telegraph. Shorten a sen- ; tence whenever you can. And one always can. The most beautiful sentence? The shortest! "Beware of sentences to spacious, too melodious, First they cradle you, and then they rock you to sleep. Pay nn attention to transition, Tbe best way tu hide from the reader the moment of passage is to jump quickly without beating about the bush." Franse was an essayist, a critic, a novelist, a poet, and he wrote also Several historical studies. He was made famous in 1881 by the publication of "The Crime of Sylvestre Bon- nard", but the best of his many works, in the opinion of his admirer*, was "I«i Rotisserie ile la Heine l'edauque". "Thais" is numbered among his historical studies, and "Le Lys Rouge" Sa a sentimental novel. All through his books there la ever the beauty of his cultured taste and bis great literary skill, the result In combination of many qualities, felicity, grace, the harmonious grouping of words, a perfect measure. Nobel Prize for Literature Anatole France was an officer of the Legion of Honor nad a member of the French aeadamy. In lfi.il he was given the Nobel prize for literature, and journeyed to Stockholm to receive the award personally from the ha mis of King (iustav of Sweden. His real name was Jacques Anatole Thibault, and he was burn In Paris on April 16. 1884, the son of a book- A WANT AD IS BOTH CHEAP AND EFFICIENT.

He has been described as a skeptic in religion, metaphysics, politics and science, yet In later years some of hla ideals underwent a chunge, for ho was interested In the Bolshevist experiment In Russia. In 1920 France, at the age of 76, was married to Mile. Emma \ji Prevotte, more than 40 years his junior, declaring that he was "starting life anew". During the world war he enlisted in the French army as a private soldier, but his. years precluded his seeing active service. Frnnce'a opposition to war, and love for human kind, was expressed In a letter addressed tn American women engaged in rebuilding the devaated regions of France. "There have been wara as long as there have he man. and nations will always be hostile so long as they continue to exbst. But nations do not live forever. "Oh women, mothers! Our grandchildren will see the United States of Kurope, the world republic. Noble women, go through the world and find your inspiration in these words. Then you wilj save Europe and will bring happiness to the world." In later years France hecame active for the League of the Rights of Man, a . humanitarian organization. With other intellectuals he signed an appeal to President Harding, pleading for the release of Saeco and Vanzetti, two Italians convicted for the murder of a paymaster and his guard in Massachusetts, nnd whose case attracted world-wide interest.

GREAT AIRSHIP STARTS TRIP TO THE STATES pride of the air, the dirigible ZR-3. which was built here for the United Stat es na vy, st art ed a way at 6: 35 o'clock this morning on her long- delayed transatlantic voyage, for the big hangar awaiting her at Lake- hurst. N.J. The start was made In a mist that was nearly rain. Wilh several hundred men scampering about, and tugging at long lines of rope, the airship swung out of her hangar amid the cheers of the throngs und the tossing of flowers upon its side. A little German band, its members blowing with might and main, endeavored to make the "Deutschland liber Alles" heard above the buzz of the motors. When ZR-3 was let go by those holding her down, she was out of sight within a few minutes, Once the start was actually made. It was all over so quickly as far as Krled- riebshafen was concerned that the crowd apparently had difficulty in realizing that the ship really had deserted her cradle and begun the longest nonstop cruise ever undertaken by a dirigible. The ZR-3 Is known here as the last of the Zeppelins. She goes across the Atlantic to pay the United States part of Germany's war bill. Crowds Wave Frantically It seemed to be gratifying to the spectators to see a great German flag trail from the ship's stern as she ascended. Almost 5000 persons who were on the scene cheered and waved handkerchiefs and flags, and alto- ! gether displayed enthusiasm and emotion unusual among German crowds. When the ZTt-3 was turned loose she ascended rapidly to an altitude of several hundred feet and then passed over Friedrichshat'en. From tho sounds -of the motors reaching the ground, the 2R-3 apparently made a great semi-circle over Lake Constant and then pointed her nose toward Basel, Switzerland, so as to pick up radio reports regarding weather conditions for use J In mapping the course of the flight. ■■».

The Labor manifesto, alluding t the general pacification of Kurop accomplished under the Labor regimt "refuses to exclude from this pacifica I tlon the Russian people, with whoi it is essential to resume our trad in the interests of the unemploye and the country as a whole." Labor claims great credit for th government's financial policy, de daring that it had swept nwn] £80,000,000 annually of taxes on people's food. ALL PARTIES ISSUE THEIR MANIFESTOES (Continued from Page One) social nnd economic reforms, and on these alone. The Liberal document pronounces unahakably for free trade, but the Labor manifesto does not mention the subject. Mr. Baldwin admits that the last election settled the question, but he still advocates a Safeguarding of Industries act, which the Labor administration abolished, and supports measures of Imperial preference. "You Did It," Lata Partners Accuse A noteworthy point is that while the Liberals charge Labor with the entire responsibility for the projection of the election, the Labor manifesto declares that the government was defeated by a partisan combination of Liberals and Tories. Moreover, as was foreseen, there is no great national question or election slogan forthcoming. All three manifestoes concentrate on the same social problems. The L'ibor manifesto deals largely with reforms ' already achieved, or ihose contemplated, but which Labor was prevented from carrying out by the refusal of tlje Liberals to Bupport them.

Saturday In -September; early mrnlng of sunlight and sweetness, • * air fresh and bracing as an th. . elixir, Andrew went pant his wife's room | softly. The door opened. She stood before him dressed In street clothes ^garish purple cape and white kid loves—a grip at her feet She smiled: "Will you be here tonight, Andrew?" ^No." "Where are you going?" "I have business out of town." 'I thought you would. See, I am ng with you, I am ready." 'I am sorry. I cannot take you," 'Why? I won't interfere. I can stay at the hotel while you're busy. T'm ready. I've counted on going." He moved impatiently. She ;pressed her bony hand on his arm, raising her face so that her eyes [seemed to stain him with their heat. '"Andrew, please. I am lonely. In 1 years what have you done for _? Whom have 1 seen? Where have you taken me ?" He measured her coldly and silently. Her thin lips wavered- "I don't 'mean that. You were kind, Andrew. 'But you have no right to treat me ' — you do! No right! Will you take e with you?" "I cannot take you. If you want trip or If you want to see people, will have a machine sent for you."

She raised her hand, and struck him in the face. As he went down the hall her sobs made an unpleasant, muffled trail to his ears. He went out of the house, sickened and furious. Andrew did not leave Fairdale that Saturday. He thought of Lily Cor nish—the things she had done with his life; the things she was still capable of doing. He felt her hand fly In rage against his cheek. He heard her cries muffled In his ears. It wag insupportable. He considered what he should do, Scenes like that of the morning would become more frequent. They solved nothing. AH morning he sat in his office- Andrew had settled the legal cases of half the residents in the country It was easy to gee escape in the problems of others. He found no solution for his own. He thought of leaving her abruptly—never returning to the house, Then he saw the weak, trembling lines of her mouth and an unpleasant sense of responsibility chained him. She had been lonely these 14 years. Her life waa of her own making, but it was a wretched, empty affair. He might appea-ie her —offer her a change of scene. Later on, they would separate. The thought of freedom intoxicated him. He felt suddenly young and reckless. That afternoon he sought his wife. She was not In the garden, nor in her rooms. He watted and finally went up for a book. Lily was sitting at his desk, In tently concerned with a small drawer in thtj^jtprner. Hearing Andrew, she sat "up stiffly. A hairpin dropped from her fingers. "Why are you back! I thought you were out of town." "What arc you doing here, Lily "Nothing! I have a right tu Jit here!" "You can't pry that lock, Lily. And It wouldn't do you any good. I don't keep any secret paper, there.'f "Im not looking for secret pa- ers. I'm only—I'm looking for picture—our wedding picture-" She began to whimper. Tears streaked down the heavy powder of her cheeks. He found himself unable to speak and went out of the house, shaking with repugnance. In the middle of the week she was in the garden, half-inclining on the long chair near the lilac bushes. In this attitude of dull passivity, her hands clasped, she was a familiar, acceptable figure; the menance of her recent activities faded. Andrew asked her if she wished to ride. She answered, keeping her glance on her hands. "No, I wish I had not been cured. That is the only thin* I wish." When be didn't answer, she ac cused him plaintively: "You wish U. t00>" w "No—you are mistaken."' "You refuse to accept me! I am treated like a stranger in my own home. I have no position here. What am I? A wife and not a wife!" He said: "I have come to talk of this. Perhaps we can reach an adjustment—" Her eyes lighted eagerly- But he went on quietly: "I don't want you unhappy, Lily. I am glad you are cured. The nerve strain seems to have been heavy on you, I have been thlnk'ng you ought to go away for a while. When you are rested, we may see things in a better light." She sat upright her thin lips straightening; "Are you to come with me?" "I cannot. T am very busy now." "And you think I will go alone? After 14 years of quiet, you think I need a rest? You are trying to get rid of me!" He pulled over a chalr'and, sitting down, wiped his face. She caught tin1 note of resignation and weak ened. Hvr hand reached over and lay on his. "Andrew, pity mc" He checked tho impulse to recoil, "I do." # "You don't love me?" His eves rested on Ihe distant hills, half lost in pallid saffron veils. I He wondered why he had to listen j to this inconceivable questioning- Ho said quietly: "I am not 23 Lily. The years make a difference." "You mean your feeling for mc has changed? You don't want me as a wife?" "I mean that I cannot go back to tho past. I mean that our lives have been separated so long they cannot be cast together by a miracle" "And yon don't want them cast togethqr? Y'ou Intend to continue treating me with this contempt, this silence—this—this—this loathing?" She stood up, trembling from head to foot, resting her two palms against bis shoulders, prisoning him to the chair with an infuriate strength, "Is this what you intend to do?

"Gain? Oh, you are talking to an underling, are you? A servant! I must be careful to fawn properly or be dismissed. I must not be myself! I must not show my feelings! I am dependent—you will cast me diit—" He grew ashamed, listening to the rant. A blanched, suffering look went across hla face. And suddenly her hands were clasped at his neck. She was weeping In his arms, "Andrew—forgive me. I cannot help It that I love you. I cannot help it" . He saw the futility of argument. Unfortunately she tricked him into a further scene. The following Friday nfght she came Into his room. He had Just turned out his light. She sat on the edge of the bed. "Andrew—you're awake. I saw your light." "Yes." "Are you going away tomorrow?" "I don't know." "If you go, will you take me with you?" "Lily—I'm tired—" "Tell me if you will take me, so I can get ready. I can pack my grip." "Then I know. Andrew. You're going to her—" He trembled and gave a short angry laugh. "Don't make wild accusations, Lily . . ." "Wild—oh, they are wild, are they! Where have you gone every Saturday for nearly six years! Where have you? Answer that!" He switched on the light. Her lips were twisting with passion. She put her hands on his arms, pressing the hard, thin fingers Into his flesh. She had her hair hanging—an unholy halo about her sunken cheeks. Suddenly she leaned down and pressed her mouth again and again on his. She drew back, a triumphant glitter In her eyes. "I am your wife! Andrew—romember that —your w'fe!" As she fled to the hall, something clattered to the floor. It shone steely and bright ... a long, thin blade, sharp as a razor. Andrew turned it curiously in hi hand. He wondered if she had meant to kill fa/rm. f GROUSE SEASON OFF WEDNESDAY Three Days Left for Huntsmen to Bag Favorite Birds.

"I am of tbe opinion that the city of Nelson enjoys the privilege of exceptionally pure water," declared H. W. Widdowson, provincial analyst, Saturday. He stated that a test he hud made of various waters in the district last spring showed there was no contamination from animal sources In Nelson's water supply, and that, In his opinion, the albuminoid um- monla and organic matter found in very small quantities were due to fallen trees and vegetable matter In the water courses to the reservoir. While not making a bacteriological test of any waters, Mr. Widdowson felt that the absence of free ammonia would Indicate that the water would be free from any obnoxious bacteria. Mr. Wlddowson said that, working as provincial analyst, it had been necessary for him to examine the waters in the district last spring. Amongst those examined was a sample of Nelson's city water, taken from a tap which had been let run 10 or 15 minutes in his office, in order that no contamination should come from any material adhering to the Inside of the pipe. No Free Ammonia "The sample taken showed, practically speaking," Rftld Mr. Wlddowson, "not even the smallest trace of free ammonia, and that the albuminoid ammonia present was an extremely small quantity. There was a faint trace of chlorine present, but the solids obtained from evaporating the water were a small amount of lime, together with a little silica, alumina and iron oxide, together with a little carbonic acid. There was also a little organic matter present." The analysis of the city water at the time the sample was taken, in the spring of the year, showed, Mr. Widdowson said, that there was no contamination from animal sources. "This was shown by there being no free ammonia and only a minute trace of chlorine," he said. "The albuminoid ammonia and the organic matter which, as already stated, was very small In quantity, was no doubt due to fallen trees and vegetable matter In the water courses to the reservoir, but the amount found was so small that it would not be in > way detrimental tn tho water. The amount of other minerals found was tho smallest found in any of the waters taken from this vicinity, and .showed that the city of Nelson wa. enjoying the privilege of having ex ceptfonally pure water, other coin munlties in this district having water containing a considerably higher number of parts per million In or ganic matter and other solids than our city water. No Bacteriological Test "I was not asked to make a bacteriological test of any of the waters but the absence of free amnion it would seem to indicate that tin water would be free from any obnoxious bacteria.'' Mr. Wlddowson said that samples taken in tho spring showed, naturally, the condition of the water when it was high, and hnd nothing to do with any existing local conditions at the present time. He staled that the condition as reported in The Daily News aa being found by some prominent citizens a few days ago should certainly, be rectified. That while water freshly drawn from a pipe might -show a certain amount of sediment from the pipes themselves, yet that the running water from Cottonwood lake was pure, was his opinion, Mr. Wlddowson said. "1 do not think that any vegetable matter found In Cottonwood lake. which is composed of running water most of the year, ran have any deleterious effect on the city water." he said. "It is my opinion thai the running water of Nelson city is POULTRY EXCHANGE WILL BE_W0UND UP All Members at a Special Meeting Vote for It; Seventy Cents on Dollar .VANCOUVER.

'The Little Boxers" The "red" movement in China is said by someone to be assuming' rather alarming proportions. Happily, news to the contrary recently has come from a reliable source in China itself, for the best-known leader of a political movement that jias adopted a well-known title from a western movement of a philosophical ' nature called "New Thought," said, during a recent interview, that the Communist movement was shallow. ' The excessive emphasis placed mi foreign invasion and foreign economic pressure he laments, as he recognizes China still needs outside help for reconstruction. , This same leader holds that the Chinese must "limber up' in the matter of recognizing their own failures and deficiencies, else it scarcely will be possible for the country to pass out of the present crisis in its national life with any measure of success. One of the facts brought out that go to prove that the active expression of individuals toward Russia has not gone far is that four persons are editing six Communistic newspapers, almost without any outside assistance ! It is evident, then, tliat the "Little Boxers" have not succeeded in stirring up anything half so severe as the big Boxers who some time since hud China in their grip. Deductions from the fact that the stronger organization met with final failure in this cast- might be taken as augury that the smaller band of discontents will have a still smaller share of influence against the progress of the common-weal toward a genuine and sel f- sufficient democracy. 1 What ihe Press Is Saying \ essential to the body as the other kinds. It Is rather distressing: to se* thp results of dieting on the faces uf men and women. In an effort to aet quick results they actually do without enough food lo maintain their strength. 8ome have the Idea that meats and eggs will clog their kidneys and liver, and abstain almost entirely from these foods also. , What is tbe result Well, ' the first thing you notb-p iibout them is the pinched, "old" appcaiiince of the face. The eyes lack Hishir, the shoulders droop, there is n general appearance of weakness, and to all intents and purpot-es that person is old. Now, If you are in good health but weigh JJtf "pounds over the average, there Is only sensibly way to handle the matter. Just sit down and go over in your mind, or with pencil and piper, your rcguhir diet for, perhaps, ,the preceding week. Cut down on your sugar, brend and potatoes, say, la per cent, and your m'-ats, liquids and vegetables about .Ml per ccnl. Try Ihls for one month. If you find at the end of tbe month that you have lost seven or eight pounds and feel a little weak, Just decrease the intiike by about <>nt;-h.ilf the above percentages; thut is, about K» and 10 per cent. Three in' four pounds a month Is a sufficient rale uf reduction.

Oct. 12.—Stock prices again yielded to" sidling BTtMUft tn yesterday's brief session of the market. While better support was offered for the industrials some sharp breaks took i>lace in the specialties for which there is a thin market. Friday's reaction having carried the general average of prices below its previous low point several commission houses urged their customers to take profits. This accounted for the heavy selling In the first hour. Recent selling in tht; face of favorable trade news somewhat mystified Wall street traders, wh<- arc inclined to attribute it to political uncertain- tles. This seems to he thorne out by the apparent unwillingness of many investors and speculators to enter tht' market until the election results can be definitely forecast.

LONDON', Ot. n.—The extraordinary goal Retiring in the principal leagues in yesterday's football association (fames was largely due to the wetness of the ground!, whieh made the ball slippery in the goalkeepers' hands. Thirty-three tallies were registered In the first division, of which the nolton Wanderers* Preston Kame accounted fnr seven, four were netted at Blackburn, four at Huddersfield and the same number at West Bromwleh. In the second division 3D shots found the nets, nt' which Die Hull City game accounted for seven, six were made at Leicester, six al Coventry and five ut Derby. In the Scottish league the Kdln- hurgto-Hlhemtan* bagged seven goals, while the Cowderibealh-Kangers saw four counters recorded, two each. In the till between the lneals, Birmingham and Aston Villa, the largest crowd of the day was present, -b'i.OOO people seeing the home team take Villa into camp hy a solitary counter. Villa missed several opportunities in the first half and were continually on the aggressive, Roberts Runs* Forty Yards In the Spurs-Burnley contest the Tottenham club were unfortunate in I being deprived of llie services of Clay I for over an hour. The most spec- I tucular feature of ihe game was ihe j great goal scored hy Burnley when Tom Huberts, recently purchased at £4000, running 40 yards by himself, beat a couple of opponents and finished with a nice shot. Arsenal finished their game at Huddersfield thoroughly demoralized, and their 4-0 defeat would have heen greater but for the brilliant and plucky play of Uobson. At no time in the game did tbe Yorkshire men look like losing their unbeaten record. Bolton Wanderers scored four times in the first 15 minutes of- the game with Preston North End. The latter club went to pieces, and It would seem that nothing hut a miracle can save them from relegation this sensor The game incidentally brought lh Wanderer.; from the 17th place in th standings up to I3th.

Sunderland were one of the two (dubs to emerge with full points on fhelr opponents' grounds. Curiously enough, the other team was Notts Forest, who have not inspired much confidence in their supporters this season. The Foresters defeated Sheffield I'nited by the closest margin, and sent I'nited down the ladder to keep company with Preston .North tOml at ihe bottom, Scottish League Close Tn tlte Scottish league the Rangers' draw with Cowdenbeath cost them considerable, since their next three pursuers in the league scramble all acquired full points. Celtic's narrow win over the Heart of Midlothian gives them temporary possession of llie table on goal average, above Alr- dricunions ami Hibernians in the order name. Hangers are fourth. Kilmarnock improved their position remarkably by their 3 to 1 victory over Queen's Park, ami jumped from 17th place to 12th. Third Lanark entered the cellar when St. Mlrren defeated them yesterday, and Ayr Tnited's crushing defeat hy the Hibernians is responsible for bringing ihe former down in association wilh Third Lanark.
