Ition  to  the necessity  of  paying
pennbership fee at once, and men-

opinion in council, but they had often
agreed with the views of the Mayor
In committee. Those Institutions,
which were doing business in the city,
should contribute to the city funds as
others.
Aid. Johnston also understood that
the members of the Westminster club
individually did not object to a license.
He was glad that they had checked
a so-called club which was prepared
to operate. He was sure the council
was unanimously of opinion that the
clubs should be governed under civic
regulations.
License Pees Introduced.
Aid. Garrett thought that every
member of the council who had spoken
matter lor consideration. He had
promised that the council should look
into that, question for the police commissioners, and Aid. Jardine had that
matter under ��������� *isi deration, but there
were difficulties in the way, as bad

Telephone Poles Again.
G. C. Hod. < district superintendent,
wrote asking the council to sanction
poles being put along Agnes street,
down the west side of Dufferin street,
and asked the council to provide regulations to prevent tacking signs, and
notices on telephone poles. The latter part of the communication was adopted without trouble, being referred
to the police committee. The former
suggestion, which is the proposed solution of the Albert Crescent pole difficulty, provoked a keen discussion.
"A   Rotten  Service."
Aid. Gray suggested that tbe construction agent should be permitted
to use Dufferin street. It would be a
great improvement to accept the proposal now suggested, in order to keep
the poles off Columbia street.
The mayor objected that the poles
would not be removed from Columbia
street if the  proposal  was permitted

In  the course of the   discussion  it

would not benefit It.
Aid. Jardine moved an amendment

which was of importance to Sapperton, as the double tracking!1 of the
Sapperton line was under consideration, and he was as keen as Aid. Garrett for the improvement of Sapperton. He hoped to live to see the hospital   rebuilt.
Anti-Opium   League.
A   petition   from   the     Anti-Opium
league with reference to opium smoking in Chinatown was read.    The petitioners  requested that   acting   steps
should be taken by the passing of a
by-law making the sale and use of the
drug illegal, or the issuing of instructions  to the chief of  police to  close
all   places   where   Chinamen   congregate for the purpose of smoking opium,   or   by  such   other   measures   as
they in their wisdom might think lit.
No  Power to  Act.
The mayor remarked that they had
no  power  to act, or   say  that,    men
should not use opium.    They had one
opium   manufacturer  licensed   today,
and  obtained    a  premium  of $500 a
year.   He understood that the Dominion government had passed some legislation recently that no more opium
would be sold after a specified period.
Whisky   Selling.
Aid.  Gray  remarked  that  if there
I was     only  one   manufacturer,   there
were ten or twelve  who sold opium.
They had many complaints of Chinamen illicitly selling whisky.
The mayor jiointed out how difficult
it was to prove charges of selling
whisky by Chinamen, or of the existence of opium dens, or gambling
places. Tbey knew that four or five
thousand dollars had been paid in duty, but it was impossible to prevent

At the annual meeting of the shareholders of the B. C. Packers' association held yesterday morning at the offices of the company on Granville

H. Barker, general manager, presented. The old directors were all reelected as follows: W. H. Barker,
Aemilius Jarvis, E. W. Rollins, E. E.
Evans, Campbell Sweeny, William
Braid and Robert Kelly.
The report of W. H. Barker on the

"We operated twelve canneries and

"The run of socueyes on the Fraser
rvier was almost a failure���the total
look as if the hatchery should get
some credit. The hatcheries on
streams tributary to the Fraser river
turned out quite a large quantity of
sockeye fry, about 50,000,000, everything was favorable for the retention
of the parent flsh. The natural spawning beds were not well seeded. The
hatchery at Rivers Inlet did better
than last year, having turned out
some 14,000.000 fry. The two hatcheries on the Skeena also turned out
some 12,000,000. Both at Rivers inlet and the headwaters of the Skeena,
the natural spawning grounds were
well seeded.
"Cold storage.���As previously stated
we have doubled the capacity of our
cold storage plant, and have installed
the boiler and engine of the tug
Cleeve. Our fresh halibut shipments
have increased a little, but not as
much as we expected, probably owing
to the hard times.
"Northern plants.���The writer has
l just returned from an inspection trip
of the northern plants. All are in excellent shape and have made a fair
start. The weather has been very-
bad; this interferes very much with
fishing at Rivers inlet. We trust for
the balance of the season they will
have   better weather.
"Preparations.��� We are operating
ten canneries this year, two less than

Fraser  river.    We  have prepared  for

Violence and Even Death
Feared by Man Who Would
Bar Cosmetics and Pads.
Atlanta, (Ja., July 20.���Threats of
dire vengeance and even death were
received today by Representative
Glenn, among the numerous missive,
from Indignant women, from whom he
had been hearing in unmeasured
terms daily since he introduced a bill
prohibiting the ensnai-ng of husbands
iby false charms. Glenn is in a very
delicate position at home also, his
wife expressing her indignation at the
number of letters he is receiving
from women anil refuses to accept his j
explanation as to their nature. i
Fearing tbat some fanatical woman j
���will attempt to carry out her threat of |
death, Glenn bas asked the House of
Representatives to detail a sergeant-
at-arms to constantly attend him as
a r**_rsonal bodyguard. He says the
real danger of many of the women
who have made threats against hlm
is not to be doubted and he fears for
his  life.
Glenn's bill, which stirred up the
tempest, provides that any marriage
resulting from false charms of the
bride shall be declared null and void.
] He   put   pads,   false teeth,  cosmetics,
i wigs and rats on the list of tabooed

iaiberal government during the last
provincial election, is now stumping
in Edmonton in the interests of the
Conservatives of that burgh. In a recent speech he electrified his audience
by declaring, with regard to the Liberals and the National" policy, that
"they had swallowed this hideous
monster, this octopus, horns, hair,
hide and hoofs." He did not explain
just what peculiar species of octopus
embraces in its anatomy horns, hair,
and hoofs, but conclusively showed
himself an amusing adapter of apt

Young People's society of Olivet Baptist church last evening on Socialism,
a lecture which was worthy of the interest of anybody. |
The  speaker showed himself to be
a   thorough  student  of  the   subject,
.and capable of imparting his knowledge  in  a clear  way.    Socialism, he,
said,  was synomymous  with sociology, and was properly the study of society and the laws which it obeyed.
The  great  periodic   business  depressions occurring throughout the world,
but especially  acute  in  America,   at
irregular   pS.lQ.ls of    about    twenty
years (the panic of 1873, f$i 1883, and
the one of last year, which is a little
Ahead of the usual time), show that
something is essentially wrong in the
present state of industry, and the resultant effect on men.    3y an actual
census, six million people desirous of
work   are   unable  to obtain  it in  the
United States.    After going over the
various theories raised to account for
these depressions, including those that
connected them with the regular appearance   of  sun   spots,  over-productions   and   poor  crops,  he  effectually
proved their fallacy.   But he explained how a few men, who under the existing conditions could gain control of
the great majority of wealth, and so
had   great   power over   the   economic
conditions  of   the land,   thus putting
the power in the hands of a few, it
was impossible to expect a just government of all.   One man selling his
rights  or results of labor to another
brought about labor slavery, and the
control of monopolies by a few prevented  just  distribution   of property.
The remedy which students of socia-
logy think should be applied is government ownership of monopolies, by
which  all  of the  people  would  have
the profit of the trusts, and popular
referendum of all laws, the power to
bring ,any law directly before the people  would   prevent  corrupt  laws  being passed by bribed legislatures.
The church has always hung back
in great reforms, for instance, slavery,
temperance, etc., but it ought not to
ibe .a reason that because people have
unlike principals, but are all working
for the good of humanity in some one
line, they should not unite in that one
direction, thereby producing a multiplied power for good.
After the lecture, an excellent quartette number was sung by Miss A.
Wooster, Miss Dymock, E. Morgen,
and Mr. Crandell. Mr. Bell was organist. Refreshments of Ice lemonade
and cake closed the evening's program.
A private message received hero
yesterday evening by J. G. Gamon announces that the Dorothy trophy had
been won by H. C. Chamberlain, of
Vancouver, in the provincial riflemen's shoot commenced at Clover
Point ranges, Victoria, yesterday
morning. He made a score of 98.

{      A WHISTLER STORY.
1r*e C����to That Was Mad* ta Pose m
* Fighting Cock.
Apropos of something Whistler one*
���old a cockfight story no vividly that
only a man witb a sailor Instinct could
Ml It as well, mimic it so keenly and
enjoy It so thoroughly. It was a story
*t a strange species of the American
eoek. pictured to the smallest detail so
beautifully that one forgot that It was
a story.
Some American sailors were at a
cockfight tn a seaport town ln England when one of them remarked to
tbe owner of tbe champion:
"We have got an American cock oa
board tbat can wblp any bird here."
"Go fetch lm on," said tbe champion.
"Chuck 'lm In and see. If 'e licks oae
bird we 'are plenty more to throw ta
tbat can lick hany blawsted Hatoeri-
ran bird yon can fetch 'ere."
"All right We'll bring one," aald the
sailors. Whs* tbey got aboard they
rigged up an American eagle. After
their own manner, they painted, trimmed, spliced and reefed fore and aft,
transforming tbe eagle to a cock. When
ready they went ashore to pit their
new American gamecock against all
England.
At the pit the sailors chucked la
their cock, which looked around for
other veurprioee as he backed close to
tbe wall.
"Now, bring on your birds!" yelled
tbe Bailors. A strutting cock was
thrown into tbe pit and was another
surprise to the poor dismantled eagle.
Be backed up closer and closer tb tbe
wall, wondering what would happen
next The cock walked thi** times
majestically around the circle, cuffing
at hla strange opponent the eagle p_tl>
ably abashed aad bedrabbled, crouching lower and lower and looking
around and above him fer an explanation of what H all meant while the
crowd were yelling madly for the
English fighter. The eagle made himself smaller and smaller, but at last,
finding that he could get back no further and thinking that something waa
expected ef him, and, as the cock
dashed at him again, stretched out hli
long claws and took bis opponent by
the neck.
Bere Whistler ended with an imitation by motions of what tbe eagle did.
Be stretched out his arm, shaped big
hand like a claw, which by this time
looked like a real one. drew it to big
mouth and with one bite pulled off
the head as he thought an eagle might
do It Then be looked blandly about
the room, as tbe eagle had done, at the
list..nl. bed crowd and said, "Now bring
on your other birds."���Otto Bacber b)

Th* Science *f Chemistry.
Chemistry did not become a science
���in other words, chemistry proper did
not exist���until the seventeenth century, and It was as late as the middle
of tbe eighteenth century before lt b*
gan to amount to much. Tbe old alchemy undoubtedly contained the
germs, or at least tbe possibilities, of
tbe present dny chemistry, but beyond
'.his the relationship Iietween the modern science and the ancient delusion is
slight indeed. Still. It cannot be denied that It wns In the foolish search
for the "Philosopher's Stone" and the
"Elixir of Life" that men first hit upon
the discoveries which were destined
to develop Into the great science of today���New York American.

"Didn't you see me raise my 'and?'
demanded the bobby.
"I did see the sky darken a moment
but my 'orse was shyln' at your feet"
retorted tbe cabby as be whipped np

THREE-CENT FARES
MAKE POORJHOWING
Cleveland's Experiment, in
Cheap Transportation Does
Not Prove to Be a Success.
Cleveland, July 20.���Cleveland has
had nearly three months of 3-cent car
fares and two of the monthly reports
have shown a deficit A similar report is predicted for July. The operating expenses and fixed charges
have been from $40,000 to over $50,-
000 a month in excess of the earnings.
The Municipal Traction company,
which ls operating the local lines under a lease, .also is under a promise
to give free transfers after July 28.
The revenue from transfers has .been
about $30,000 a month, a cent each
having been charged.
The officials of the company still
express their belief that 3-cent fares
will pay In time. An Important meeting of the directors will be held next
Tuesday to consider the Inauguration
of free transfers and other vital
points. Transfers may be made free
for a time as an experiment to see If
it will Increase the patronage.
"The property will not be turned
back to the old company If we have to
charge the highest rate of fare allowed by our franchise," President Du-
pont has said.
The franchise permits a rate of six
cents. The operating company's franchise has been attacked in court and
also will be voted on under the state
initiative and referendum law.

was absolutely no chance for tbe casual loafer to get newspapers, pens, Ink.

Aid. Garrett, following a remark of
the mayor, rose on a question of privilege. He was there to speak the

The mayor asked for the chief of
