Hince, work in park, July - Aid. Cox Treferred to the culty experienced by the surveyors in setting the line for the new cement sidewalk along Richter Street. He raised the question as to whether the cost of the second surveyor who had been engaged, and the additional . expenses involved should be met by the council or paid by the original surveyor. Mayor Sutherland said that owing to the subdividing of the blocks - along the street some of the pegs had got out of line, and a dispute had arisen as to where the. actual line should be fixed. There had .. been a difference between the two surveyors of spme inches at one end, but they had eventually come to "an agreement Aid. Leckie thought the. city was quite justified in making the additional expenditure so as to be quite sure of their ground. The Mayor said that both surveyors had recommended the establishing of certain corners in the ' city to serve fixed and definite - starting points in the laying out of sidewalks etc. The points should be located and posts put in. Many of the old stakes were gone and others doubtful, and theie would very likely be trouble in the future if the matter was neglected. Messrs W. J. and E. Clement attended with plans of their subdivision amended according to the suggestion of the council some time ago. As the plan was now satisfactory, a motion was passed that it be accepted by the council. A resolution was also passed, "that the action of the mayor and treasurer in borrowing from the Bank of Montreal the sum of $3,000 to meet the cost of local improve" . ment works, be approved by the council." " The following was also passed :• " That the mayor and treasurer be authorised, to borrow from the Bank of Montreal from tine to time such sums as may be necessary to pay for works of construction under By-laws 90.91, 92,94,95, and 96." The mayor reported that he had sent an invitation in the name of the City to the Western Canada Irrigation Association to hold its next annual convention at Kelowna. at Calgary, and had been accepted Mayor Sutherland mentioned that a preliminary report had been received from the engineer engaged to look into the question of a sewerage system for the city. It was a most comprehensive report and went thoroughly into the matter. There was one point however upon which it had been necessary to write, for further information be- fore'bringing the matter before the council. The engineer had apparently taken it for granted, that owing to the high price of land available the city would not want to consider the disposal of the sewage by means of a sewage farm. So long as they were going into the question they should have full information on all the different systems. Aid. Cox suggested that people on the outskirts of the city^ should be encouraged to build septic tanks. Most people had land enough arid the.tanks could be installed at comparatively small cost. A letter was read from the C. P. R., asking if the council would consent to the extension of their tracks across Cawston avenue, if the company decided;upon extending the track which now serves the Kelowna Ca/ining Co., and the Farmer's Exchange. By resolution it was decided to give the permission asked for. A petition Was read from the owners of property on Fuller Ave. requesting the council to open up and grade that street. Referred to the Board ol Works. The following letter was read from the Kelowna Canning Co.:-. City of Kelowna, Gentlemen: ■ - , We beg to iriake application ,' for a lease for 21 years of-the land in front of the present cannery site, 100 feet,north from the property held by the C. P. R. on the foreshore. The use of the land wou'd be exclusively for the further deve- lopement'of the canning industry. Thanking you in anticipation of an early reply. Yours faithfully, KELOWNA CANNING Co. Ltd. The Mayor said that the city had grant of the foreshore extending to to the north side of Cawston Ave., and the Canning Co. wished to lease two-thirds of this. It was considered prudent to take time to eonsiuer tuc request. ~ine mayor mentioned that in all probability the Great Northern Railway would be wanting a site in Kelowna inside of eighteen months, and sufficient of the foreshore should be reserved for them. The meeting then adjourned. The following conservative platform has been given out by Mr. R. L. Borden at the commencement of his campaign : — 1. A thorough reorganization of the method by which public expenditure is supervised. Increase in what is known as ordinary controllable expenditure from $21,- 500,000 in 1896 to nearly $74,- 000,000 in 19/1 is proof of extravagance beyond any possible defence. 2. Granting ,of, their natural resources to the" prairie provinces. _ 3. Construction of the Hudson Bay Railway and its operation by an independent commission. 4. Control and operation by the state of terminal elevators. 5. Necessary encouragement for the establishing and carrying on of a chilled meat industry. 6. Establishment of a permanent tariff commission. 7. Granting of substantial assistance towards the improvement of our public highways. 8. Extension of free rural mail delivery. 9. Extension of civil service reform. 10. Granting of liberal assistance to the provinces for the purpose of supplementing and extending the work of agricultural education and. for the improvement- bf agriculture. II.. A cbuise of policy and administration which will maintain independent and unimpaired control of our own affairs by the Parliament of Canada, a policy which, while affording no just cause of complaint to any foreign nation, will find its highest ideal in the autonomous development of Canada as a nation within the British Empire.; Conservative Association Reorganized British Railway Strike Ended Government Assists in Settlement of Dispute Railways and Lumbermen Share Forest Fire Costs At present lumbermen and railway companies in British Columbia pay a portion of the cost of fighting fires on their property, and in the future, as the result of a conference between Hon. W. R. Ross, minister of lands, and other government officials, and a number of prominent lumbermen and railway officials' of East Kootenay, they will contribute to the cost of preventing the outbreak of forest fires, to which end the chief efforts of the government are now being directed. A special committee of nine has been appointed to direct the work. On the committee are representatives of the government, the lumbermen and the railways. Mrs. J. Hawkin and her daughter of Truro, N.S., mother and sister of J. N. Thompson, are visiting for a few weeks. The railway strike which for a few days tied up business throughout Britain, arid threatened more than one city with starvation, has been settled. After a late conference Saturday evening at the Board of Trade offices it waa announced that the men would return to work immediately. Already troops are being withdrawn from railway property, and the old schedules are being resumed. A joint comnittee of five members composed of two representatives of the railway companies, two of the men, and a non-partisan chairman, appointed on Tuesday to investigate the workings of the Conciliation Act of 1907, which the men claim is the root of all their grievances. A conservative estimate places the cost to the community for the railway strike last week at $10,000- 000, exclusive of the decreased profits of the companies which will amount to many thousands. Work at the London docks is in full sway again for the first time in three weeks, but it will be some time before the congestion of freight is relieved. The cabinet had been working night and day since the strike was threatened, to arrange a compromise between the railway managers and their employees. Most of the credit for the ultimate success of their efforts appears to rest upon the shoulders of David Lloyd-George, chancellor of the exchequer, who, in his statements to parliament and in an interview with the managers and the men, worked for. conciliation when all others of the interested parties seemed tb have given it up. A meeting of the Liberal-Conservative Association was held in Raymer's Hall last Monday evening. Mr. Raymer, the president, took the chair. On the meeting being called to order, Mr. Raymer briefly announced the object of the gathering. It was, he said, in the first place to receive the report of the delegates who had attended the nomination convention at Kamloops last Thursday. As one of {he delegates he could himself &ive the result of the convention. ver two hundred being present. The delegates from Kelowna were Messrs. H. W. Raymer, R. A. Copeland, W. T. Patterson, M. Hereron and J. A. Bigger. Hon.. P. Ellison, the president of the .-. Yale-Cariboo Conservative Associaiation was in the chair and after a few introductory remarks commenting on the fact that there was only one name to go before the convention, he tendered the -unanimous nomination to Martin Burrell. He called attention to the fact that Mr. Burrell had to the entire satisfaction of all Conservatives represented- during the last parliament the largest and most richly endowed by nature of any of the Canadian constituencies. Had the government been fair to the west a redistribution bill would have been brought down and the district now included in Yale-Cariboo would have two or three members. We only had one, but he thought that one was the best we could possibly have. Mr. Burrell, in accepting the nomination was most enthusiastically received, his advent on the platform being greeted with prolonged cheers. He feelingly thanked the convention for its marked-expressions of good will and'confidence, and said that it was just such occasions which gave a man the heart to put up with all the trrubles which political life laid upon a man's shoulders. More than this, the enthusiasm displayed and the confidence expressed, told him as nothing else could, how strongly the Conservative party felt upon the great issues now before the people. He agreed With the chairman in his remarks about the riding of Yale-Cariboo. Its size, its variety of resources, and its political wealth were compared by the speaker with some of the pocket handkerchief consistuencies in other parts of Canada, and he said that he felt it unreasonable that so large a territory, almost an empire in itself, should be represented by only one man. He-felt the responsibility as well as the honor in doing so. He did not consider the present enthusiasm as being in any personal.it was national and showed that Yale-Cariboo would do the right thing on September 21. He recaucu tuc resuit or tne rast Carsorso's Horse Wins in Match Race A match race around which centred no little interest locally was run off this afternoon at the race track between Fuller's "DonE" and Casorso Bros.' " Royal King" over the half mile for a purse of $200. Considering that no public announcement had been made of the race, quite a large number of people had gathered at the Recreation Grounds. The controversy which arisen as to the correctness of the judges' decision at the last match race some weeks ago, and the at any rate unsatisfactory nature of the test, lent added zest to this afternoon's contest. It was the determination of all concerned that there should be no hitch about the race from start to finish, but that it should bi a fair trial of ppeed between the two horses. " Wid " Thompson, as usual, rode Fuller's horse, " Royal King's" jockey being P. R. Sautelle. an experienced rider brought in for the occasion from Calgary. The utmost care was used in the preliminaries of weighing in etc. At length all was ready for the first heat, and the horses got away with very little trouble in fineshape. The greatest excitement prevailed as the two ran practically neck and neck throughout the whole course. On the home stretch, however, "Royal King "-.began to draw ahead, and a_ final spurt as the jockey dug in his spurs; brought him under the wire first by about two lengths. After a wait of about fifty minutes the . second . heat was run. Here again a capital start was made though,;"Royal King* took' some " litde persuading. The result was was plain after the first few hun- dreh yards, "Royal King" drawing ahead considerably and keeping the lead until the end of the race. elec- Miss M. M. Laing, B.

He accepted the nomination and would leave no stone unturned to merit the confidence the convention had placed in him. The resolution committee submitted the following which were all adopted unanimously :- 1. That this convention expresses its confidence in R. L. Borden, K. G, as leader of the Conservative party in the Dominion and conveys to him its appreciation of. his determined stand in the interests of the people of Canada. 2. That the convention place on record its entire approval of the policy and adminstration of the Hon. Richard McBride and his government. 3. That this convention congratulates Mr. Martin Burrell, our late member and present candidade on his very able and lucid speech in the House of Commons on the reciprocity question. 4. That this convention emphatically condemns the proposed reciprocity compact with the United States of America. 5.

The temperance movement in British Columbia is ipaking pro. gress notwithstanding the fact that so many forces are in opposition to Local Option and prohibition. During the last fifty years the churches.. of several denominations have done considerable temperance work.and during the last twenty-seven ye&re the W. C. T. U. have worked away in the various'departments of their excellent organization. The Dominion Alliance branch, along with other organizations, have done work in the past which has not been in vain. The I. O. G. T. have about twelve hundred members inthe province and many of their lodges are quite {active. The R. T. of T. have about seven hundred members and are doing their best to ht-lp along the temperance work. The sons-of temperance have one iodge in Vancouver. These temperance organizations are composed of strong and good men and women, The Local Option League -was formed in the fall of 1908. Its first effort waa to get a petition of, 35,- 000- signatures abd present the same to the Government, asking for a Local Option law. This was considered insufficient by the Gov- eijiment and.' though a plebiscite, taken in November, 1909, gave us a total vote ia favor of a Local Option lawof~c«er. 32,000 and a majority of 3,700, this majority was about 500 votes less than demanded by the Government, so thatno Local Option law wris ehacted by tKe Legislature; the demand being equal to Half of all the number of votes cast for candidates. A most unfair and un-British demand. One result,' however, Was the passing of-a hew Liquor Act,, which ia, a great improvement on the past; ThetTthe temperance people-decided to get the -'Canada Temperance 'Act" amended to fit.British Columbia. This being'done by the Federal .Government,, a, vote was tqken thereon in the cities of Chilliwack tmd f^fmeejRypiert, the *e«iMt being a. loit vote:ih each place, brought about by misrepresentation and the introduction of party politics. .

The Menace ofthe Codling Moth AU orchardists, and especially those who have visited the badly infested districts of the East, are aware of the terrible menace to the apple industry presented by the codling moth. Happily fruitgrowers in this province have not as yet this handicap to contend with, thanks to the vigorous system of inspection of everything likely to carry the infection. An interesting account was given recently by Mr. Thomas Cunningham, provincial fruit inspector, of the determined mannerin which the B.C. Government met- an accidental introduction of the pest into the Kamloops district. Mr. Cunningham says : " The codling moth is now fortunately no more in B.C." " Some years ago a Christmas present of Ontario apples was sent out to some railway men-at Kamloops. This was not a shipment for commercial purposes, and so was ..not inspected. After the apples had been ' used ther barrels, always dangerous, for harbouring the larvae of the codling moth, were thrown outdoors. The moths hatched out and quickly found food and condition quite favourable for reproduction, so that within a year or two many fruit trees of Kamloops became badly infested. We first were in doubt of the identity of the pest, and it was not until after several of them were artifically bred that we fully realized the gravity of the infestation. We began by spraying with arsenical spraying mixtures, paris green, London purple and finally arsenate of lead. Banding the trees for trapping the larvae was also resorted to, and whilst we did have a measure of success, we barely prevented the infection from spreading. " In one .orchard^, found . infect tion had been carried there by using old fruit boxes from the Kamloops stores. I agreed with the owner of the orchard to have every bit of fruit in the orchard gathered and destroyed, cutting off the supply of food for the larvae. We never found the slightest, trace, of infection afterwards. This experiment pointed the way to deal with Kamloops orchards, and I advised the government to repeat the experiment that I had tested in the Schafer orchard, namely, the purchase of all the apples, pears, crabs and quince growing in Kamloops last season. This was agreed to, and when the fruit had attained one-third of its size 1 had Mr. Coatham of Chilliwack, a reliable horticulturist, take charge of the picking of the fruit, and in two weeks the fruit in Kamloops was all cremated at the burner of the Kamloops Sawmill Company. " Subsequent inspection at Kamloops during the season failed to disclose any larvae. This has been proved beyond doubt, and I a... enabled now to give Kamloops a clean bill of health."

McDonald,, formerly a dentist of Vernon, was selected by the Liberals at the nomination Convention in Kamloops last week to carry their banner at the coming election in Yale-Cariboo. The Liberal candidate is well known throughout the district. In I 907 he was candidate for provincial honors, running against Hon. Price Ellison. At the last general election he was returning officer for the Yale-Cariboo district, and has, up to the time of the convention, been president of the Liberal association for the whole district. When the elections were announced he at once resigned his position as superintendent of Indian agencies to engage in the fight in behalf of the candidate who might be selected. Postal inspectors are searching U.S. for the sender of a letter which exploded in the electric stamping machine of the postoffice the other day wrecking the machine and badly injuring Frederick M. Miller, who was operating it. Fire followed the explosion but was quickly subdued. The explosion was caused by dynamite caps enclosed in a letter. Armstrong had a booth at the Regina fair in which products of the district were exhibited. Mr. D. C. Cameron, a well known business man of Winnipeg has been sworn in as Lieutenant-Governor of Manitoba, to succeed Sir Daniel McMillan, whose term of five years had expired by limitation. Four hundred thousand pounds of blasting powder, discharged in two electrically-fired shots, tore more than 1,000,000 tons of rock from the face of a high cliff overlooking the Snake river, south of Spokane, and made possible the saving of 60 miles of road construction on the third division of the Oregon-Washington Railroad and Navigation Company's system, between Spokane and Ayr Junction. The two shots cost $60,000.

The CP.R. annual report shows $26,727,100 net revenue available for dividend. After payment of all dividends declared for' the year, the surplus from railway and steamship lines for the year carried forward, $11,873,242. Special income from interest on land sales and from other extraneous assets not included in above, $6,602,205. Chilliwack is having trouble with its telephone service. Three telephone operators quit their jobs in the local exchange, following the posting of a notice in the office by officers of the company: " Loafers; your presence will not be tolerated in this office during business hours. By order of the' board of directors." The girls declare they have not been in the habit of entertaining loafers, and that the action of the directors was' entirely unwarranted. Upon the refusal of the management to remove the sign they pinned on their bonnets and walked out, necessitating the placing of linemen on the switchboard. Neither the directors nor the striking operators will recede from their position and the public has to tolerate the situation. A. S Goodeve is the Conservative nominee who will contest the Kootenay division. He will be opposed by Dr. King of Cranbrook, who will represent the Liberals. The prosecution of Hawley Harvey Crippen for the murder of his wife cost' the British Government $6,135. The recent finds of platinum in valuable quantities in the Kootenays have brought up the question in that district as to the rights of prospectors to enter upon and stake claims in properties owned and operated as fruit and general ranches by other individuals ; and j telegrams from Nelson state that litigation will certainly follow the staking of several claims during the past fortnight. It has been officially announced that the Canadian Pacific Railway have placed an order in England for two new steamships for its Vancouver-Hong Kong service. By a vote of 241 to 128 fhe British House of Commons passed a resolution appropriating $14,260,- 000 for the payment of members' salaries for the coming year. This action was taken pursuant to a resolution passed Aug. 10, providing for an annual salary of $2,000 for each member. According, to the last census report there are now in England and Wales a million more women than men. A cyclone visited part of the Black Diamond district, 20 miles north-west High River, Alta., last week doing considerable damage. A shack in which a woman and child were living was carried 150 yards, when the floor fell out, hurling the contents of the building to the earth, the occupants escaping miraculously. The shack was then carried heavenward arid demolished in the air. Another woman, seeing the storm coming, took refuge under a' bridge and was severely injured by flying rocks and gravel. Trees fifteen inches in diameter were torn up bodily or ripped to splinters. Roads in the path of the storm were rendered impassable by falling timbers. Fortunately the C3rclone was very local in its extent and did not touch any of the larger buildings of the district or the loss of life would have been inevitable. Mr. George McLellan bf Kate- pawa, Sask., offers a reward of $3,000 for the recovery of his son, two years and seven months old, who disappeared on June 24. He offers $1,000 for information leading to the recovery of the boy.

Owned in Turn by Goldsmith, Garrick, A Dr. Johnson and Burke. The fuiuous literary society of Loudon called the Savage club has traditional connection with Will's coffeehouse and the Mermaid tavern of early days. The reader of Mr. Watson's volume of history and anecdote relat. lug to the club will come across in its pages incidental mention of things that recall names that are famous in our literature. How rich in associations a simple drinking cup may become is shown by the following: Iu 1902 there was brought to the club a most remarkable relic of which the lord mayor of Loudon had recently obtained possession. This was a loving cup holding a pint or a little more which, as certain inscriptions testified, was at one time the property of Oliver Goldsmith. On Goldsmith's death it passed into the hands of David Garrick and thence to tho possession of one of the literary and artistic clubs of the day. Then after an interval it passed into Dr. Johnson's hands, for one of the inscriptions engraved on its silver rim records that it was presented to Burke by his friend Samuel Johnson, doctor of letters, as a memento of Johnson's visit to Beaconstield, which was Burke's home. The date of the presentation was 1779, Ave years after the death of Goldsmith and Ave before the death of Johnson. ESSEN'S BAKERY. Said to Be the Largest Breadmaking Concern In the World. The largest bakery iu the world is located in Essen, Prussia, the home of the great Krupp gun factory. It is a vast building, in which seventy workmen, divided into two shifts, work night nnd day. Everything is done by machinery, says the Loudon Post. A screw turns unceasingly a kneading trough, into which are poured some water and ten sacks of flour of 200 pounds each. This machine makes about 40,000 pounds of bread each day. in the shape of 2E>,000 small loaves aud 2:1,000 large loaves, produced by 230 sacks of flour of 200 pounds each. All the operations of breadmaking are performed in this colossal bakery. The wheat arrives there, is-cleaned, ground and brought automatically to the kneading trough by a series of rising and descending pipes. There are thirty-six double ovens, and the workmen who watch over the bakiug of the bread earn from 8 to 10 cents an hour, making an average of 90 ceuts a day for eleven hours on duty. They have coffee and bread free; also the use of a bathroom, for they are required to keep themselves spotlessly clean and must wash.their hands eight times a day. ~ The Brown Rat. The best way to make a good clearance of rats is to turn a cobra into the place they inhabit. It will clear them out in an amazingly short time. But most people prefer the rats. Were it not for cats, owls, weasels aud a few other animals in combination witb man, in a short time the whole country would be one vast raltery, for the rate at which these animals increase Is stupendous. They are without doubt one of the worst forms of vermin, but they possess one good quality. In a tight corner few animals are more courageous than the brown rat. Rats hard pressed have been known to fly at a man's throat. Two or three, secure in a little fortress with a small opening only large enough for one at a time to come in nnd go out, will defy a score.of ferrets, and if oue ferret with more courage than his brothers does venture to enter the lions' den he must look well to himself or he will never come out alive.—Loudon Globe. Organ Pipes.. The names of the different parts of an organ pipe are interesting. For instance, the air is forced iu through a hole in the pointed toe of the pipe, goes through the flue (the slit cut in the side) and strikes the lip. In some cases it then bits the beard (a metal cylinder attached just below the opening) and rebounds against the lip, producing a double vibration. There is also a tongue, and the tipper part is called tbe barrel.—Exchange. Faultfinding. Often the most unhappy people are those who have lost the art of admiration and become experts In the art of faultfinding. Beauty is everywhere, but they see It not because of the flaws somewhere below It. Faultfinders should turn their magnifying glasses upon themselves and there discover why they are not loved. Conversation. Conversation warms the mind, enlivens tbe imagination and is continually starting fresh game, which is Immediately pursued and taken and which would never have occurred in the duller intercourse of epistolary correspondence.—Franklin. .

With Ainsworth Uaud Spofford, for fifty years librarian of cougress, who died in 1908;..the passing of Went- j worth Sanborn Butler, for more than i fifty years Librarian of the New York \ Society library, and of James Lyma'u ! Whitney, for forty years with the Bos- ; ton Public library, a triumvirate of old j school librarians has gone. The envi- ; ronment, conditions and methods of ! administration have changed, lu the • fifties, before the days of elaborate j catalogues, with subjects grouped and classified, the librarian was popularly credited with carrying all the knowledge of the universe in his head, ready to impart to all comers on request. Mr. Spofford and Mr. Butler were both born in New Hampshire and Mr. Whitney in Northampton, Mass., about a decade later. Amherst, Dartmouth aud Yale contributed to their culture, and New England and the country gave them their early vigor and resourcefulness. Mr. Butler knew the beaus and the belles of New York for three generations. William Culleu Bryant, Guliau O. Verplanck, Fitz-Greene Halleck and Evert O. Duyckinck drew upon his various stores of knowledge. The great jurists and statesmen William M. Evarts, David Dudley Field, Hamilton Fish, John Jay and Samuel J. Tilden were intimate friends and constant visitors at the society library.—New York Post ^ ROTARY SN0WPL0WS. These Powerful Machines Are as Big as Freight Cars. The snowplow is a huge machine, as big as a freight car, and built of steel. On the forward end is a monster wheel with powerful blades of steel looking like au overgrown electric fan so arranged that their angles can be changed. This wheel, which is perpendicular to the track and revolves at right angles to it,-is inclosed In a casing or drum, also of steel and with sharp steel edges. The top of the drum is supplied with a pipe or chute. Inside the snowplow is a steo.m engine, which drives this huge fan whee! at from 100 to 250 revolutions every minute. Below the body of the plow near the track is an ice cutter to clear the rails of ice before the wheels go over them and a "flanger," as it is called, designed to scrape the bulk of the snow off the track itself after the fan has whittled the snow bank away and thrown the most of it to one side. Be- hiud the snowplow are coupled from one to three or even more powerful engines, and behind these a car. On the car are many men with shovels, for, despite its enormous power and its ability to toss tons of snow about as you might toss a shovelful, even the rotary gets stuck at times and has to be ignominiously dug out: —0.
