C,  WEDNESDAY   MORNING,   MAY  25,   19 m\nNO 30\nIN COLLISION\nSteel Ships Crash Together\non Lake Huron\nf\nSeventeen Believed to be\nDrowned\nHalf-Dozen Survivors from\nBig Steamer\nPORT HURON, May 24\u2014In a collision between two big steel ships on\nLake Huron north of Point Aux Barques ln a dense fog on Monday morning, 17 men are believed to bave been\ndrowned. The steamer Frank H. Goodyear of Cleveland was sunk ln 47\nfathoms of water. The steamier James\nB. Wood of Cleveland which struck the\nGoodyear bow on, came Into Port\nHuron harbor today with a big hole In\nher bow carrying half a dozen survivors Irom the steamer Goodyear. The\nlatter carried a crew of 23 men and\nseveral passengers.\nThe Survivors\nCapt. F. R, Hemenger, who commanded\nthe Goodyear, the chief engineer, a steward, one wheelman and two passengers, Mrs. T. H. Bassett and her daughter, were saved and brought to Port\nHuron on the steamer Wood. The\nonly hope of the survival of the others\n.who were on hoard the Goodyear lies\nin the possibility of their having been\nrescued iby the steamer Sir William\nSiemens, which was near the scene of\nthe wreck and is due at Saulte Ste.\nMarie later today.\nGiven Life Preservers\nThe Goodyear was struck amidships\non the starboard side. In a moment it\nwag seen that the Goodyear was doom?\ned. Everyone on board was supplied\nwith a life preserver and every effort\nwas made to man and launch the small\nboats. But the water poured into the\nhold so fast that the heavy hatches\nwere forced from their frames iby the\npressure from underneath and shot Into\nthe air ln every direction.\nSnatched Baby from Arms\nThe falling hatches spread injury and\ndeath among the terrified crew and\npassengers of the sinking vessel. With\nhia' infant child in his arms, Steward\nBassett had almost reached safety in\none of the lifeboats when one of the\ntumbling hatches snatched the baby\nfrom his arms. The little one fell Into\nthe lake and was drowned despite tbe\nfrantic efforts of its father to rescue It,\nRescued Five\nFollowing the accident Capt. Gibson\nof the Wood ordered the lifeboats lowered and gave the crew instructions to\nmake every possible effort to save any\nof the sailors of the sinking steamer.\nThe boats rescued five people from the\nwater.\nNo More Rescued\nSATJLT STE. MARIE, May 24\u2014The\nsteamer Siemens passed Detour this\nmorning and did not report any survivors of the wrecked steamer Goodyear. It is believed to be certain that\nshe would have reported had any survivors been aboard.\nGive up Hope\nPORT HURON, May 24\u2014Families\nand friends of the missing IS members\nof the crew of the ill-fated steamer\nFrank H. Goodyear which sank on Monday morning off Point Aux Basques,\nLake Huron, after being rammed amid-\n. ships iby the steamer James B. Wood,\ntonight practically gave up hope of any\nof tiie missing party .being rescued.\nThe steamer Siemens which was said\nto nave picked up some of the missing\ncrew passed Detour today and made no\nreport of having any of the survivors\naboard. That the Siemens would have\nreported otherwise is regarded as certain. She has not reached Sault Ste.\nMarie and it is thought may have been\ndelayed in Sailors Encampment channel\nby the blockade there. Four of the\nrescued members of the crew have gone\nto Goodyear's headquarters In Cleveland and Mrs, Emma Bassett, the only\nwoman survivor, Is still ln Port Huron.\nLaden With Ore\nThe scene of the collision was about\n25 miles above Point Aux Basques and\nthe time .between 5 and 6 o'clock Monday morning. A thick fog hung over\nthe water. The Goodyear operated by\nMitchell and company of Cleveland,\nwas coming down from Lake Superior\nladen with ore. The Wood, owned by\nthe Gilchrist Transportation company\nof Cleveland was going up light. There\nwas little sea at the time and the fog\nIs held largely responsible for the accident.\nA partial list of the missing follows:\nJohn Bott, aged three years Algoma;\nGus Zeatsch, first mate, Algonac; Chief\nEngineer John Gibson; Archie Gibson,\nsecond mate, Algonac; Wheelman Jas.\nPlergls,, South Chicago; John Lapp,\nwatchman Cleveland; W.

Some of\nthe so called \"sports\" from around that\nlocality made those lakes anything but\na safe resort for the fowl so that where\nyou once could see hundreds you never\ncan Bee a score now.\nDeputy Game Warden James Bates\nof Cranbrook knew ot this and decided\nto put a stop to it once and for all.\nHe directed his Indian deputy, Jacob,\nto watch tbe largest of the lakes early\non yesterday morning. Jacob concealed himself near the water and after a\nlittle time saw a lad, a son of the accused come and spring the duck from\nthe water with a 22 rifle. The few that\nwere there, Gutter-balls, flew over to\nnear where the accused had hidden himself. He managed to kill one with a\n12 bore shot gun. His dog retrieved the\nbird for him. Jacob at once reported\ntbe matter to Mr. Bates who was in\nWycliffe at the time. He met Cluzel\nreturning from the lake with the duck\ntn his bag. , ..-.,_ t\nIn Police Court\nYesterday the case came up before\nMagistrate Ryan when Chisel pleaded\nguilty with the extenuation that he was\nignorant of the law and that a man\nnamed McDermott once told him that\nhe could slaughter all the migratory,\nfowl he cared for.\nJacob and Mr. Bates proved the case\nas stated and Cluzel was fined .20 and\n$5:25 for expenses. It was pointed out\nto him by the magistrate that he Could\nhardly plead ignorance of the law as it\nwas displayed in plain type on tbe walls\nof the hotel In Wycliffe and in every\npublic place in the district. He publicly\ncomplimented tooth Mr. Bates and Jacob on the good work they were so successfully doing and expressed the opinion that the penalty would make Cluzel\nrealize that the game was not worth the\nfine with Its unpleasant alternative in\nthe event of non-payment. The fine was\npaid.\nGame of all kinds Is being splendidly\nlooked after around Cranbrook nnd\nthere can be no mistake about the thoroughness with which offenders are dealt\nwith when brought before the courts.\nANNUAL MEETING\nDIOCESAN BRANCH\nWoman's Auxiliary to the Missionary\nSociety of the Church of England-\nThursday _nd Friday\nThe fourth annual meeting of the\nKootenay diocesan branch of the Woman's Auxiliary to the Missionary Society of the Church; of England In Canada, will be held in this city 'this week.\nDelegates are expected from the various branches in the diocese and they\nwill be the guests of the members of\nthe parochial W.A.\nProgram\nOn Thursday, May 26, a service will\nbe held in St. Saviour's church at 10:30\na.m. at which the sermon will be\npreached by tlie Ven Archdeacon Beer.\nThe program of the meeting is as follows:\n2 p.m.\u2014Business meeting; W.A. litany; roll call; minutes of last annual\nmeeting; greetings; president's address; reports, recording secretary, corresponding secretary, treasurer, dorcas\nsecretary junior secretary, secretary of\nbabies branches, Leaflet editor, reports\nof branches, senior, junior; paper by\nMrs. Christopher Reed.\nFriday, May 27\n10 a.m.\u2014iBusiness meeting; hymn;\nprayer; roll call; motions before the\nmeeting; appeals; consideration and\nadoption of pledges; election of officers; general business.\n3 p.m.\u2014Meeting; paper; closing address by Rev.

As the Great\nNorthern steamship Kaslo, crowded to\nthe guards with excursionists and with\npennants flying, came abreast of the\nlofty perch which the lake city dominates, a salute of giant crackers I urn\nthe shore proclaimed her advent, t>nd\nas she rounded the point, tin citizens\nof Kaslo, who lined the shore rfinks\ndeep, added 'their imprimatur to the\nwelcome by the waving of. scores of\nflags and handkerchiefs, while tbe deafening shrieks ot the steamship Elren\nmade the echoes fly again. Then the\nNelson city band, fro n the upper deck,\nstruck into a lively air, more crackers\nwere set off on shore, and the bustle\nof landing succeeded and absorbed attention. This perfect welcome included, as part and parcel of the excursion, the representatives of Grand\nForks in the baseball contingent, and\nIt crowned a perfect trip over, first, the\nWest Arm and next the main lake, its\ngleaming surface reflecting the neighboring shores which, as they receded\ninto the distance, faded in beautifully\nrounded promontories, into the horizon,\nbathed in many hued mists while before\nevery new reach of lake discovered\nfresh glowing capes and shining surfaces.\nAs the visitors stepped on shore, they\nfound waiting to pilot them, a reception\ncommittee composed of O, T. Stone, H.\nGiegerlchi J. L. Retallack, W. V. Pap-\nworth, Geo. Stott, Jas. Spelrs, A. J.\nCurie, C. F. Olson, W. E. Cooke, D.\nP. Yates, P. McGregor, D. P. Kane, C.\nF. Sherwln, H. P. Pett, C. L.

E,\nArcher, D. C. MacGregor and J. W.\nCockle. Neil F. Mackay, M.P.P. and\nA. S. Goodeve, M.P., the remaining\nmembers of the committee were absent, but well represented.\nThe day's programme of sports opened immediately and continued till practically the hour of departure, at 8\no'clock in the evening. It Included a\ntrap shooting tournament, a baseball\nmatch between Nelson and Phoenix,\nlaunch races for cups, a professional\nshooting competition, a concert by the\nNelson city band and numerous contests for the younger element. In\naddition a salmon fishing contest for\nvisitors was in progress all day\u2014yet\nto be concluded. This programme was\nunder the management of a committee consisting of S. H. Green, O. E,\nDesmond, Dr. A. W. Bagnell, John\nKeen, E, H. Latham, A. Palmer, S.\nHunter, R. Hendricks, W. Robb, W. E.\nZwicky, Q J. Qulnan, F. H, Walsh,\nJas. Anderson, D. C. MacGregor, A.\nMcQueen, J. G. Potter, A. T. Garland,\nMayor J. W. Power, W. H. Burgess\nand E. E. Chlpman. Mayor Power was\nhonorary president of tbe committee,\nMr. Burgess was secretary and Mr.\nChlpman treasurer. The final court of\nappeal was tlie executive committee\nwhich was composed of Messrs. Green,\nChlpman and BurgesB. The committee\ndisbursed a fund of $000, raised by the\ncitizens of Kaslo. The way that Kaslo\ndoes things was Illustrated by tlie Tala\nappearance of the city, the Union Jack\npnd varl-colored bunting being- prominent In every quarter, while the ever\npresent and ever exploding fire\ncracker, squib or rocket, attested the\nenthusiastic interest of the younger\ngeneration in it he proceedings.\nVarious members of the reception\ncommittee found time from their other\nduties to pilot visitors to the various\npoints of interest In the lower and\nthe upper town and show them over\nthe public buildings. Mayor Selous\n$ind Aid. Wells, F. A. Starkey, president\nof the board of trade and other representative citizens of Nelson were\nfraternally entertained, and in all respects the hospitality of the people of\nKaslo may be described by the word\ni'royal.\"\nAn Important element in the day's\nsuccess was the able assistance rendered to the hotels, in providing for\nthe physical comfort of the visiting\nmultitude, by the ladles aid of the Kaslo Presbyterian church. The ladles\n(served 300 meals, and only stopped\nwhen the provisions were exhausted.\nThis department was managed by Mrs.\nGeorge Stott, president of the society,\nassisted by Mesdames C. R. Garland,\nff. Varey, J. Rlddell, W. A. Bagnell, P.\nMcGregor, W. Murchlson and W. E.\ngwlcky.\n- When the whistle  of the   steamer\n\u2022summoned the excursionists to the\ndock the city band led the parade to\n\u25a0 the waterfront playing a gay march,,\nand the air was full of fireworks, both\nifrom shore and from the upper deck\nof the steamer, as the visitors em-\n'ibarked. The hospitable 'hosts, lined\n-on shore, raised a ringing cheer for\n'the people of Nelson, which was\n\u00a9quailed by an answering cheer from\nthe decks for Kaslo, swelled by the\nstaccato blasts of the siren. Another\nselection by the city band completed\nithe exchange of courtesies and as the\nsteamer hacked from the wharf and\nswung on her heel, a handkerchief and\nhat salute, and more fireworks, touched off the bon voyage.\nA grand ball in the Eagle hall, Kaslo, with the assistance of Nelson's orchestra with probably 200 people in attendance, was due to follow the departure of (the steamer, while the excursionists enjoyed many a waltz and\ntwo-step in the cleared saloon on the\nhomeward trip, Victor McMahon and\nHarold Klnahan ministering to the\nmusical requirements of the occasion.\nAltogether, the annual excursion of\n.he Nelson Baseball club to Kaslo was\na pronounced success. The credit for\n*carrying It out must be given to the\ncommittee of management, consisting\nof W. R. McLean, C. F. Walmsley, Geo.\nLapointe, H. J. Bishop and Nap. Mal-\nlette. A large merit of praise must\nalso be accorded to the Great Northern Railway company and to Its representative' H. E. Douglas, for the excellent steamer service.\nLaunch Races.\nOne of the features of the day was\nthe launch raceB. The first one, the\nlong distance run from Nelson to Kaslo, was completed just at noon, the\ncompeting boats racing across the\nline Just ahead of and almost under the\nbows of the. excursion steamer. But\nthree boatB were entered, the Flora\ntowned by S. Underhlll of Ainsworth;\nthe Krao II owned by A. D. Wheeler of\n'Ainsworth, and it he Atlanta owned by\n'J-Ion. F. E. Grosvenor of Riondel. The\nKrao II giving the Flora 25 minutes\nhandicap, and the Atlanta giving her\n160 minutes. The Flora left Nelson,\nwith Mr. Underhlll, at 6:50 o'clock in\nthe morning, and the Krao II with Mr.\njand Mrs. Wheeler aboard, left 25 mln-\ntutes later. The 'Atlanta did not start\nsas difficulties with the engine developed.\n11 Off Woodbury point, on the main\nJake, the Krao II overtook the Flora,\n^ut the latter dropped Into the former's wake and would not be shaken\n'off. From that stage to the finish line\nthe launches were never more than a\njcouple of boat lengths apart, and the\nKrao II finally crossed 10 seconds ln\nthe lead, after a run of 5 hours, 4 minutes, 30 seconds, the Flora sweeping\nacross just astern. Each launch was\nawarded a cup.\nThe remaining race was a handicap\n\/race to cross the lake at Kaslo and\n(return. The dual classification was\ndropped and all the boats were put into one race. The handicaps were allotted as follows: D. P. Kane's launch\ngave 17 minutes 20 seconds to A. D.\nWheeler's Krao II, 13.45 to S. Underbill's Flora, 9.25 to W. N. Gallup's\nlaunch, 5.05 to W. Zwlcky's Alice E.,\n\u00a3.40 to A. T. Garland's Verno and 3.|30\nto P. H. Walsh's Margaret E. The\ncourse Is variously estimated at from\n\u25a0three to three ahd a half miles.\nThe contestants crossed the line, the\nrace being run late ln the afternoon,\nJn the following order:\nW. Zwicky, first, 34 minuutes 10 seconds; A. T. Garland, second, 34.il; P.\nH. Walsh, third, 34.17; D. P. Kane,\n34.19; A. D. Wheeler, 34.37; W. N.\njGallup, 35.12; S.

Prom the commencement of the game Nelson showed\nthat their practice has worked wonders, for Instead of the usual collapse\nand consequent tmall score, the two\nfirst batsmen. Stubbs and Kerr, put on\n100 before they were parted.\nThe game commenced at 11 a.m.\nProctor won the toss and decided to\nsend Nelson In. Stubbs and Kerr opened the batting to the bowling of \"Whit-\ntaker and Simmons. The scoring was\nrather slow in the commencement but\nafter the boys had got their eye in runs\ncame at a good pace. Both batsmen\ngave a couple of chances but apart from\nthat played splendid cricket. The\nscore rose gradually to 100 when Kerr\nwaB splendidly caught out hy Sallery\nThis ended the longest partnership on\nthe local ground. Wilkinson took\nKerr's place. Stubbs was the next\nman to leave, being caught in mid-off\nby Whlttaker. Bourke Joined Wilkinson and these two stayed together until luncheon hour, the score at that time\nhelng 113 for 2. After luncheon Simmons and Noakes took charge of the\n\u25a0bowling. Bourke was the first to leave,\nhut was closely followed by Wilkinson.\nThe remaining batsmen although showing greatly Improved form were unable\nto do much with Noakes, who at this\nstage of the game was bowling remarkably well. The innings closed about\n2:45, the score being 150. Noakes took\n7 wickets for 46.\nProctor's Innings\nNoakes and Harrison opened the batting for Proctor but the score had only\nreached 3 before Stubbs beat Harrison\nand at *he same total Bourke beat\nNoakes. This was the commencement\nof the collapse, the last wicket failing\nat the small total ofi 9. Besides the\nsplendid bowling, the fielding of the\nhome side was keen and a decided Improvement on anything they have ever\nshown in previous years. Bert Edwards\nkept wicket In splendid style.\nProctor started their second venture\nwith Harrison and Goodliffe to the bowling of Butler and Wilkinson and although doing considerably better than\nat their first venture, were altogether\nat sea with the bowling. The innings\nclosed for 33. Butler took four wickets\nfor 20 and Wilkinson five for 12. It is\nonly fair to the visitors to state that\nthey are handicapped in not being able\nto get much practice and although badly beaten expressed a desire for revenge at a future date. It Is a great.\npity that this healthy evercise Is not\nbetter appreciated in the Kootenays, for\nalthough Nelson has such a strong team\nthis season, and if today's form is anything to go by, a good propsect of a\nvery successful season, it is hard to\nget anything like a good gate.\nThe following are the scores and\nanalysis:\nNelson.\nA.

JOHN, N.B., May 24\u2014Brakeman\nJohn Casey of Moncton was killed, a\ndozen people sustained minor Injuries\nand much damage \"was done to rolling\nstock on the Intercolonial railway today in a collision at Nauwigewauk, 15\nmiles from here. It is a wonder more\nwere not killed,\nMaritim* Express\nThe trains colliding were the Maritime Express firom Moncton for St.\nJohn, and a surburban train from the\ncity. The Maritime left Moncton 25\nminutes late with Conductor Caffey in\ncharge and Ed, Storey engineer. At\nHampton Storey received orders to\npass the suburban about five miles below. There the suburban too had orders. It Is said there was nothing in\nthe orders as^o which train was to\n\u25a0take the sldlSg and -which keep the\nmain line but trainmen quote a new order issued only two days ago giving\neastbound trains right of way. In thiB\ncase the suburban was eastbound. However the suburban stopped at Nauwigewauk and the Maritime came around a\ncurve at about 40 miles an hour.\nStuck to His Post\nStorey, seeing the train ahead, applied the air brakes and stuck to hl_\npoBt and came through unscathed while\nFireman Culbertson jumped and also\nescaped. The express crashed into the\nsuburban badly damaging both locomotives and one car of the suburban.\nEscaped Through Windows\nNext to the engine on the express\nwas a baggage car, next a second class\ncoach. The baggage car telescoped\nthe second car, wrecking it and there It\nwas that Brakeman Casey died. He\nWas on the second class platform and\nwas crushed as the cars telescoped. He\nlived !bnt a minute or two. No one else\nwas seriously hurt thought the passengers were shaken up. Some passengers were In the telescoped second class\ncar but escaped through the windows,\nthough some were cut. A remarkable'\nthing was that four tramps riding on\nthe iback of the engine escaped unhurt.\nClearing the Track\nA wrecking crew Is at work clearing\nthe traok, but meanwhile trains can\npass by the switch. Casey was a married man with a family. His home is\nin -Moncton.

Teit, Ethnologist,   Who    Studies\nthe   North   Thompson   Indians\u2014\nMastered Chinook and Tribal\nLanguage.\nThat there are sound reasons for the\nbelief that the natives of Northwestern\nAmerica and those of Northeastern\nAsia are related and that the results\nof scientific studies which are being\nconducted on both sides of the Behriag\neea by representatives of American and\nBritish scientific institutions will go\nfar to establish the theory on a basis\not tact, waa the statement of Mr. J. A.\nTeit, one of the foremost authorities on\nIndians in the Interior ot this province\nand coworker with Dr. Franz Boas, of\nColumbia university, who was in Victoria on his way to the Quinault reservation on the coast of the State ot\nWashington. There he will carry out\na commission requiring him to gather\nhurriedly for a work which is now being prepared by an American Institution\ninformation relative to the ancient tribal boundaries and the areas covered\nby the various dialects of the Indians\nof that reservation.\nIndian  Language In Asia\n'According to Mr. Teit a group of\ntribes has been discovered on the coast\nof Asia who are linguistically American, despite the fact that they are surrounded by other tribes distinctly\nAsiatic in their language. This is one\not the pegs upon which the theory ot\nrelationship is bung.\nFolk Lore.\nRecently Houghton, Mifflin, of Boston, published for the American Folk\nLore society a volume by Teit on the\ntraditions of the Thompson river In*\ndians. Since writing that he has gathered 300 other traditions handed down\nfrom generation to generation, some of\nwhioh are identical with traditions of\nother tribes and with traditions of\nsome of the Asiatic tribes, a fact which\nbas never yet been satisfactorily ex\nplained. He Is also at work on texts\nof the language of the Thompson river\nIndians, and the Dominion government\nwill soon have him at work on a detailed map showing the boundaries of\nthe tribes of this province.\nRapidly Changing.\nSpeaking of Dr. Boas* work, Mr. Teit\nsaid that when the researches and\nstudies of all the workers now in the\nfield have been completed, Dr. Boas\nwill write his conclusions based on the\nfindings. This work should be ready\nbefore long, and it will constitute tlie\nlast word In the intimate study of the\nIndians of the Pacific coast, their history, customs crafts and languages.\nThe work is being hurried as much as\nis consistent with accuracy, owing to\nthe fact that within a few years much\nof the information needed will be past\ngetting. The Indians are rapidly\nchanging, traditions are no longer being preserved, and tribal customs have\nfallen before the advance of the white\nman. Mr. Teit declares that all the\ncoast tribes have decreased since the\nwhites first came among them about\n1858. A few of the bands are holding\ntheir own, others are even increasing\nslightly, but the vast majority are falling off. The period of adjustment Is\nproving fatal to many of the tribes,\nbut Mr. Teit believes that many of\nthem will eventually adjust themselves\nto tbe customs of the whites and develop into useful and Intelligent citizens of this country and the United\nStates.\nDuring his visit to Victoria this week\nMr. Teit was the guest of Dr. New-\ncombe, of Dallas road, of whose work\namong the coast Indians he holds a\nvery high opinion. He will leave this\nevening for Seattle and will travel on\nat once to begin his labors.\nMINING   IN8TITUTE\nAT GRAND FORKS\nOn Thursday, May 26, the eighth\ngeneral meeting of the western branch\nof the Canadian Mining Institute will\nbe held In Grand Forks.\nSeveral papers having particular reference to the Boundary district will\nbe read and discussed.

They were standing with their\nbacks to me five in a row, with short\nskirts, sack coats, very long like bodkin cases, and huge hats covering neck\nand shoulders. They crowded Into the\ngondola and went off, all that could be\nBeen of them when seated being the\ntremendous flat hats, a blot on my\nbeautiful Venice,\n\"From that day I vowed that at least\nVenetian women should disgrace the\ncity no more, If I could help it and began my campaign among personal\nfriends who In turn pledged themselves\nto bring in their acquaintances. The\nmembers of the league have not yet appeared in public In their new garments\nbut they wear them in their own homes\nand when receiving friends.\nSimple Arguments\n\"My arguments are simple and have\nthe advantage of illustration, so that all\ncan see. I take my victims to my window facing the grand canal and above\none of the big gondola stations and ask\nthem to look at a certain woman. I\nask them to observe her position; she\ncannot lean back because of the coat\nof mail she Is wearing in the Bhape of\ncorsets. She has no waist, and seen\nfrom behind, no shoulders or neck, as\nthe brim of her hat conceals them.\nAfter my pupils seem to have taken\nin thoroughly all 1 have said and pointed out, I take them before a reproduction of Baldassare Peruzzi's Penelope.\n1 ask. them if there Is any comparison.\nI ask them to look at the line ot the\nbosom and of the hips. If nature gives\nus these beauties she surely does not\nintend us to distort them and hide\nthem. But even putting It on the ground\nof comfort of beauty, I need not point\nout how far superior the old style was.\n\"If it will be any consolation to women I will say that, so far our men lolk\nhave enthusiastically approved our reform. There is no monotony as there\nis in the generally accepted modes, for\nwe do not prescribe any special form\nmerely that there shall be a return to\nthe antique tempered by modern restraint. Our stuffs may not be so costly, but our colors may be the same; and\ntoo, what could be more beautiful than\nthe old Venetian mode of dressing the\nhair?\n\"Our dresses although modelled from\nthe ancient fashions, will be different\nfor various occasions. Of course home\ngowns were not so generally reproduced in paintings, but they exist in descriptions and we have adopted them,\nwith some modifications for present\nneeds and while feeling ourselves\ncharming for our mankind, we also feel\ncomfortable. Besides, anything is better than the straight up and down\nsheaths of today and we feel we are\ndoing something to combat the modernizing of our city which is unfortunately\ntoo fast losing its antique charm.\n\"If I can take my reform beyond the\nconfines of Venice I shall be only too\nglad to feel that I am 'femlniste' ln\nthe sense that I am benefitting my sisters in bondage to the corset. It Is\nbeauty and appropriateness that I advocate and considering the short time\nI have been at it I have had considerable success.\"\nCITIZENS OF MOYIE\nKEEP VICTORIA DAY\nBig Picnic at Green Bay\u2014Mine Closed\nDown\u2014Town  Deserted\u2014Tennis\nTeam at Cranbrook\n(Special to The Daily New-.)\nMOYIE, May 24\u2014Every launch on\nMoyie lake was put into commission today to carry the members of the general citizens picnic party who spent the\nentire day at Green Bay on upper Moyie\nlake, some six miles from here.

Before that\nevent the Protestant as well as the Catholic clergy received their certificates\nfrom the secular authorities and their\nnomination to any post was not definite\nuntil confirmed by a decree signed by\nthe president of the republic. \"So far\nas Protestantism was specially concerned,\" says Pastor George Dleny in the\nHomlletio Review (May) \"Its faculties\nof theologly (Paris and Montauban)\nformed part ot the university. Under\nthese conditions the church became\nmore and more accustomed to rely not\non its own strength and resources but\nto expect very much if not all trom the\nstate.\n\"Atheism,\" he writes In the course of\nthe grave article, \"is advancing and is\nbecoming a formidable power. Atheism\nis now a fashion and every one knows\nwhat influence is exercised in France\nby 'la mode.' In many circles to avow\noneself a believer would be to insure\nbeing covered with ridicule and this de*\nrlslon which the French know so well\nhow to inflict Is of all things most\ndreaded. Atheism is very strongly organized. Nearly all over France socle-\nties of free thinkers not only bind\nthemselves to refuse all religious intervention, as, for instance; at marriages and at funerals, but also to prevent the members of their families\n-from having any intercourse with the\npriests from any motive whatever. It\nis easy to recognize the immediate effect of such restrictions. Children are\nnot baptized and do not enter any Sunday school. Women no longer attend\nreligious services, prevented by their\nhusbands who have quitted the practice\nof worship. Marriages and burials are\nobserved with civil rites only. Children are trained to hate God nnd those\nwho apeak of Him. It must be added\nthat French Fremasonry is absolutely\nanti-religious and is both a powerful aid\nto Infidelity and also a great factor in\nIts organization. The school becomes\na potent element in propagating free\nthought. I speak more particularly of\nthe primary public, free communal\nschool, rather than of the college- or\nthe lycee, although even in these also\nan approximate condition ot things\nexists but the danger is not so great\nas la the communal establishments.\nUnder the pretext of neutrality In the\nmatter of religion and in order to withdraw the younger generation from the\nInfluence of the Catholic schools (an\nInfluence politically anti-republican)\nlay teaching has been rendered obligatory. All religious objects and everything that could be suggestive of religion, have been withdrawn from the\nschools as well as from the tribunals.\nThe teachers are forbidden to speak of\nreligious topics, so that Christian teachers are unable to mention the name of\nGod before their pupils.\n\"Infidelity In France Is, It I may say\nso the religion of the state. The government is frankly and officially atheist to such a degree that in the chamber of deputies a minister dared to say\nin words which have become celebrated\nand which caused deep Indignation In\nmany circles, that 'the lights of heaven\nwhich had given to men lying hopes\nwere henceforth and forever extinguish-\ned.' And this discourse was such a success that the chamber, if I am not mistaken, voted that it should be placarded in all the communes throughout the\ncountry. And it is well understood that\na functionary or an officer who may\ntoo openly exhibit his religious proclivities by frequenting church will receive a bad mark aud will more or less\nrlHk his career. Free thought has made\ncommon cause with Socialism. The\nChristian social movement has endeavored to diminish the evil, but it Is always dangerous to mix religion and\npolitical questions and Socialism is one\nof the latter. It Is certain that free\nthought, having entered into league\nwith Socialism has thereby gained immensely in power\".\nNEWS OF THE DOMINION\nWINNIPEG, May 24\u2014Seven million\ndollars worth of building permits for\nthis year so far.

O, PETERS, Manager\nEUROPEAN CONCERT\nTO BE REVIVED\nRussian Foreign Minister Sets Himself\nto  Achieve a  Very Formidable\nTask\u2014Review of Policies.\nLONDON. May 34.\u2014To realise the im-\n,'\u2022 portance and magnitude of the task, lm-\n8oB_d upon the Russian foreign minister\ni his recent diplomatic encounter with\nAustria* It Is necessary to go back to the\nsources of European policy  with regard\nI to the  Near East as it obtains today.\n| These are to be found In the events of\nf, the years USB and 1840, when on Mehemet\n' All threatening Constantinople, the weak-\nness of Ottoman power stood revealed and\nthe Independence of the Ottoman empire\nbecame recognised by the great powers\nas an essential element In the balance of\nj' power In Europe.    For  the purpose  ot\nproviding for the defence of the sultan's\nthrong and for placing the Bosphorus and\nthe Dardanelles, as well as the Turkish\ncapital, In security against all aggression,\nfour of the powers thereupon combined,\nand the principle underlying the object\nthey had In view became accordingly embodied ln the public law of Europe, and\nIn such law has since remained.\nThe political court thus Initiated was\nmaintained in its integrity until the Independent action of Russia that led up to\nthe Crimean war, and during tho course\nof that struggle the powers met at Vienna\nwith a view to devising safeguards against\nRuHBlan preponderance in the future, and\nwith the object of connecting the existence of the Ottoman empire even more\ncompletely with the Europoan equilibrium.\nThe fundamental ideas which presided over\nthe deliberations,, and which continue to\ndefine European policy In regard to the\nNear East were then carefully stated. And\nIt was recognised by Russia herself at\nthese proceedings that the balance ot\npower in Europe embraced the eastern\nquestion, and that the duties of European\nstatesmen were to consolidate the position\nin the Near East ln a manner to put an\nend to the rivalries of the great powers.\nAnd  the   International   Jurisdiction   was\nfound to nave lost none of Its authority\nwhen, 23 years later, on the termination\nof the Russo-Turkish war, Great Britain\ntook the lead In objecting to the ind.-\npendent action of Russia In altering the\nmap of southeastern Europe ln the terms\nof the treaty of San Stefano. In that\ncase, the British government, in Lord\nSalisbury's despatch of April 1, 1878, took\nthe stand, Justified by precedent, that any\ntreaty concluded by Russia and the Porte\naffecting the treaties of 1856 and 1871, must\nbe a European treaty, and would not be\nvalid without the assent of tbe powers,\nand in so far as the arrangements were\ncalculated to modify European treaties,\nand to affect general and British interests,\nher majesty's government were unable to\nrecognize In them any validity, unless\nthey were made the subject of a European\nagreement.\nThe Treaty of Paris.\nThis Is European policy ln regard to\nthe Noar East, as established by the conferences that culminated ln the treaty of\nParis, and ns affirmed by those that gave\nrise to the treaty of Berlin, and it is to\nthe honor and credit of Great Britain that\nher statesmen took a predominant part\ntn the International councils enunciating\nIt, and more especially contributed, by\ntheir courage and limine.., to lay the\nfoundations of the periods of peace which\nfollowed. In each case the preponderance\nof Russia was the danger to be met, and\nso effectual were the results of these\ncompacts that they restored the European\nequilibrium upon such conditions of permanency that it was not disturbed in the\none case for more than two decades and\nIn the other fur nearly three.\nIt Is curious to note that the latest Infraction of the European concert so well\npreserved, has come not from Russia, but\nfrom that power which sought a special\nposition In the Vienna conference upon\nthe grounds that it was .always faithful\nto its engagements and to the principles\nwhich It laid down.\" The political equilibrium is now, in fact, disturbed by Austria, and tho disturbance has come through\nthe Independent action of that state In\naltering without the consent of the powers,\nthe political status of the two Turkish\nprovinces, Bosnia and Hersegovlna, a\nstatus given to them at the Berlin congress. But though the violation of public\nlaw Is ln this case no less a subject for\npublic vindication than It was on the occasion of its Infraction by Russia, a different sequence of events is ensuing. Closely following upon the action of the dual\nempire, and true no doubt to the traditions\nof the foreign office, Sir Edward Grey, ln\nhis speech at Wooler, on Oct. 7, 1908, refused to recognise the right of any power\nor state to alter an International treaty\nwithout tho assent of other parties to it,\nand these principles were affirmed by the\nErime minfnster Ave days later ln the\nouse of commons, and accordingly a statement was Issued from the foreign office\non Oct. 6, 1908. to the effect that the exchange of views which had taken place\nbetween M. Isvolsky and the foreign secretary, had resulted in a complete agreement as to what should be done to deal\nwith the situation which had arisen in\nthe near East, and that It was agreed\nthat a conference would be necessary.\nBut Austria declined to accept a confer\nence unless she arrived at an understanding with Turkey first, and at that point\nthe policy of his majesty's advisers began\nto diverge from the policy of the Aberdeen\nand  Beaconsfleld ministries.\nThe Balkan Trouble.\nLord John Russet and the Earl of\nBeaconsfleld had both maintained the inability, ln the face of European jurisdiction, of any of the powers to effect separate engagements altering the status quo\nin the Balkan peninsula, ana asserting\nthe authority of the public law or j_urope,\nhad, in words which subsequent events\nshowed were not empty in their meaning,\nmade a stand for \"sound principles,\" But\nthe present government have not maintained these high traditions In dealing\nwith the Bosnian difficulty, and have\nthereby admitted the right of separate\ngovernments to modify the political status\nof the Balkan area, provided the consent\nis obtained of those peoples whose Interests are more immediately affected,\nfor what could be nearer to the\nabandonment of the principle of the\nEuropean concert than the words ln which\nMr. Asqulth sounded the retreat of the\ncabinet from the position taken up by the\nforeign office in committing Itself to a\nconference? He said at the Guildhall on\nNov. 9, 1908, that the British government\nhad no prejudice against, and no preference for, any particular method by which\na settlement might be reached. , . They\nhad recognized from the lirst that it was\nfor Turkey to consider for herself any\nproposals that might be made to her, and\nIf Austria or Bulgaria were to arrive at\na direct understanding with Turkey wnlch\nwould be acceptable to her, the way would\nbe smoothed over to a general settlement.\nThe consequence of the prime minister's\nutterance was that the foreign office left\nas It were diplomatically en fair, Sir\nEdward Grey could only say as he did at\nScarborough, on Nov. 19, 1908, that he\ntrusted the conference would dispose of\nthe difficulties, but \"you cannot force a\nconference and yet have a satisfacory\nresult.\"\nIn view of the platonlc attitude thus so\nunexpectedly assumed by this country in\nregard to the Near East, the difficulties\nof the part Russia has been called upon\nto play have been immeasurably increased.\nPrince Gortchakow in 1856 foretold the\ntime when this country might serve as a\nmeans of the defence of Turkey against\nthose who would menace her elsewhere,\nand the time seems now to have come\nwhen, Instead of Austria seeking guarantees against the dangers of Turkey from\nthe side of Russia, Russia Is driven to\nguarantee against those dangers of Turkey\nfrom the side of Austria. Once again It\nIs necessary to rebuild the Balkan peninsula Into the equilibrium of Europe If\npeace Is to be maintained, nnd this Is\nthe task which At. Isvolsky, a European\nconference failing, has set himself to fulfil. What Is his measure of success Is as\nyet unknown, but If he has succeeded In\nrestoring the foundations of diplomatic\ncontact between his country and Austria,\nhe has at least gone some way toward\ndrawing from her that political detachment\nin her relations with Turkey which the\npublic weal forbids, and ln leading her\nback once more Into the councils of\nEurope. Should misgivings, however, arise\nwith regard to the value of M. Isvolsky's\nachievement in this direction, made under\nsuch discouraging conditions, it will he\nless with regard to the work itself than\nthe permanency of It. But it is satisfactory to know that his efforts are not confined to the re-establlshment of the European concert. For, as an additional safeguard of Ottoman integrity, he is bringing\nabout a consolidation of Balkan Interests\nin order that powers of resistance against\naggression may be cultivated In the peninsula itself, and in this endeavor the current Interchange of royal and diplomatic\ncourtesies shows he Is In great measure\ncalculated to succeed.\nROYAL EDWARD\nMADE A RECORD\nMr. D. D. Mann Predicts Fast Vessels\nOn the Pacific as Well as\nAtlantic\nThe Canadian Northern's palatial\nnew steamship the Royal Edward\nswung into the port of Montreal at half\npast six, after having made the fastest\ntrip between England and Quebec of\nany commercial steamship, with the\nfastest daily average and also the biggest day's run ever made on the Canadian Atlantic highway. The vessel\nnot only proved herself exceedingly\nfast, hut also most seaworthy and comfortable, a large crowd was waiting\nthe arrival of the vessel. One ot the\nfirst to board her after her arrival was\nD. D. Mann, vice-president of the Canadian Northern.\nOn the Pacific Also\nA large number of newspaper men\nhud come Up on the vessel irom Quebec and In response to a vote of thanks\nMr. Mann made a brief address in\nwhich he intimated that the plans of\nthe Canadian Northern are more fat-\nreaching than for a mere Atlantic service. Mr. Mann in fact Intimated that\nthis was hut the beginning of a steamship service to be run in connection\nwith the future Canadian Northern\ntranscontinental railway which would\ninclude fast vessels on both the Atlantic and Pacific and also on the\ngreat lakes. Mr. Mann said he hoped\nthat by the time the railway was completed from ocean to ocean the steamship service between Great Britain and\nCanada would be in good running order and that they would be prepared\nfor further extensions.\nCapt, Roberts stated that ibetween\nBristol and Cape Race the Royal Edward averaged 19.7 knots, which constitutes a new record for the Canadian\nroute and shows that the new boats\nfor the Canadian Northern can maintain the same speed on the Atlantic\nthat they did on the Mediterranean. In\nfact Capt. Roberts states that on Monday the Royal Edward reeled offi 480\nknots in the gulf, an average speed\nof 20 knots an hour, which is easily\na record for gulf navigation.\nThe C.N.R.

Kail ordan inaptly attended to\nA. Q. LAMBERT * CO.\nBRITISH COLUMBIA'S FLOUR MILLS\nThe Winnipeg Commercial Says:\nBut a wider survey as to what\nmay be the Pacific wheat milling field of the future is the subject of editorial consideration by\nthe Edmonton   Journal.     It discusses the   subject    from   the\nviewpoint of what will be the line\nof least resistance for the wheat.\nof the prairies to reach Pacific\ntidewater.      Handling    Alberta\nwheat over the heavy grades of\nthe Crow, much less the Kicking\nHorse, will never be feasible as\na commercial proposition, It argues.     The    Yellowhead   route\nmust as a natural consequence\nput the  southern  route    out of\nbusiness.   The grain famine   in\nMexico is bringing a certain amount of Alberta   red   over   tlie\nheavy grades to Vancouver, but\nthe real western   movement of\ngrain cannot commence until tlie\nCanadian Northern with its easy\ngrades and direct line to the Pacific is completed.   The opening\nof the Panama canal will brintf\nthe westward movement of grain\nto its greatest proportions.   Edmonton will be the nat_r.il assembling centre   and   ihe routo\nwill    be   via the    Yellownoad,\nNorth Thompson and Fraser rivers to New Westminster.   Hsuvs\nthe natural location for ths flour\nmills of the   Pacific   will, the\nJournal concludes, be Burrard In*\nlet or the Fraser delta.   Tacoma\nand Portland are the   examples\non the Pacific coast today.\nDoes our   Edmonton   contemporary\nimagine that the C. P. R. will sit down\nand see the wheat of Alberta go to the\nPacific over other railways?    We do\nnot.   We venture to say that the C. P.\nR. will see to it that it obtains a route\nfrom the prairie to the coast \"that will\nbe able to compete with any   other.\nThere Is really no question about that.\nThe only question is what route will\nthe C. P. R. take.\nThere are only two to choose from.\nThe grades on the Kicking Horse pass\nand Rogers pass are out of the question. Tlie new C. P. R. outlet must\nfollow either the Crow's Nest pass or\nthe Yellowhead. The Crow's Nest pass\nhas the advantage of giving a much\nmore direct line from the great wheat\ngrowing areas of southern Alberta and\nsouthern Saskatchewan. If equal\ngrades can.be obtained grain can be\nhauled more cheaply and expeditiously\nand with a \u00a9mailer equipment\nHow do the grades compare? Tbe\nhighest point in the Crow is at a\ngreater altitude than the highest point\nln the Yellowhead. But that does not\nnecessarily mean easier grades. The\nrise to the higher altitude may be\nequally gradual.   Very had grades may\nexist in an abrupt approach to a low\nheight, and easy grades may. lead up\nto a greater height if the approach Is\nlonger or more even.\nThe grades on the Yellowhead route\nare admittedly good. Our information\nIs that practically equal grades may be\nfound on the Crow route. They are\nnot found on the line ln operation as\nit now stands, but it Is stated that they\ncan he secured without undue expenditure.'\nEventually, no.doubt the C. P. R. will\nhave a line through the Yellowhead\nto take grain from northern Alberta\nand north western Saskatchewan. But\nit is not doing much in that direction\nyet; and if it is to have its new line\nready for the completion of the Panama canal, the G. T. P. and the C. N.\nR., it has not much time to lose. We\nmay be sure that it will not wait till\nthen to begin construction that will require several years to complete.\nOn the other hand tlie C. P. R. has\nbegun work on the Kettle River line.\nIs it not possible that this affords some\nindication as to how the company proposes to meet the competition of the\nrival roads? The Kettle River line is\nto he completed within three years and\nwith the reduction of grades at some\npoints on the present C. P. R. lines in\nsouthern British Columbia it may provide a satisfactory route.\nIf so where will be the best point\nfor (milling Without going exhaustively into the question it may be mentioned that the Ogllvie company have\ntheir greatest mills not at Montreal\nbut at Winnipeg. The Lake of the\nWoods company have their chief mills\nat Kenora, The big new company lately organized in the east Is to mill not\nat the 'Seaboard but on the Welland\ncanal. The considerations which determined ihe choice of site in these\ncases may be expected to favor the\nchoice of Nelson as a site for milling\nin transit on the Crow's Nest-Coast\nroute.\nEDITORIAL  NOTE.\nWinnipeg Commercial: \"The interior towns of British Columbia rich\nin rtJie potentials for developing cheap\nwater power are entertaining lively\nhopes that they will become wheat milling centres, in the day when the trade\nof the Pacific calls for vast quantities\nof flour to supply the demands of the\nmarkets of the Orient and also of\nSouth America. The Nelson News has\npointed out how admirably situated\nthat city is for becoming a milling\ncentre. It has cheap electric power,\ndeveloped at Bonnington Falls; it has\nfavorable rail communication with the\nprolific wheat fields of Southern Alberta through the Crow's Nest Pass;\nthe building of the Kettle River Valley\nline from the boundary country to tlie\nNicola Valley branch of the Canadian\nPacific railway giving connection with\nthe main line of the C. P. R. at\nSpence's Bridge will give a through\nline of favorable gradients to the Pacific seaboard. These advantages seem\nto make a good case for Nelson.\"\nPNEUMATIC TIRES\nMAYBE DISUSED\nWestlnghouae, Inventor of Air Brake,\nHas New and Better\nDevice\nAnother invention rivaling ln Importance that ot tho air brake has heen\ncompleted hy George Westinghouse.

He got up and Lauder rushed\nhim with a right uppercut to the jaw\nand a left to the chin. Standon went\ndown again and was very groggy when\nhe came up. Lauder went after him\nand rushed him to the ropes, with ineffectual punches to the head and body.\nStandon showed great head-work hy\nsticking it out, covering up cleverly.\nIn the seventh round Lauder was told\nto wade in and finish his man as Standon was very groggy, coming up weak.\nBilly ruBhed repeatedly but though landing repeatedly had not the strength to\nscore a knockout. In the next round\nStandon showed up stronger and kept\nImproving until the last round when the\njabbing started to tell on him and It\nlooked aB.though he would go.out but\nhy this time Lauder who was not in\nany too good shape was weakening and\nthey both could not do more than to\nwrestle around the ring, Lauder occasionally landing a jolt to the head. In\nall the rounds tout the last two milling\nwas exceptlonaly fast.

At every stopping place on the\nupward trip, the city band, on the\nsteamer's upper deck, regaled the natives with a selection, and Us work at\nKaslo commenced on landing. The\nband stand is at the lower part of\nMain street overlooking the water, nnd\ntaking Its station there, the band, under the leadership of Fred L. Irwin,\nband master, held the crowd for an\nhour or more during the trap shooting.\nThen it led the way to the hall grounds\nin the upper town, and continued to\ndelight the large throngs. In the evening, again, It took up Its station In\nfront of the Kaslo hotel, where both\nbaseball teams were quartered and\ngave a long conceit, the street being\nthronged throughout its continuance.\nThe band can have almost anything it\nwants at Kaslo.\nA large selection of marches were\nplayed throughout tlie day besides\nwhich were the following selections:\n\"Semiramide,\" Rossini; \"Poet and\nPeasant,\" Suppee; clarinet duet, \"Na-\nnlne,\" E.

Tlie grounds were well\nfilled with enthusiastic fans, nearly\nhalf being ladles, and the aforesaid\nfans were not afraid to express their\nopinion fluently at any time ou anv\nissue remotely connected with the\ngame, and their sympathies were about\nevenly divided between the two teams.\nThis guaranteed a fair contest in eveiy\nsense of the word and a good brand of\nbaseball speedily intoxicated the crowd.\nFor about seven innings it was a ' try\ngood brand of baseball indeed; then\nsomething dropped.\nThe Phoenix men, captained by J.\nStrutzei, sported a blue uniform, while\nthe Nelson boys, under H. Grady wore\nthe familiar maroon. Doth teams\nwarmed up well in preliminary practice nnd the game started out well,\nwith snappy, clean-cut work all round.\nThe first three men Phoenix sent up\ndied without reaching first, two flying\nout, while Blue brought out applause\nby fanning one. The Phoenix team,\nwhen In the field, proved pretty nearly\nas nifty, and Nelson retired with\nDaschbach marooned on first.\nAction commenced In the second\nInning Phoenix scoring Perkins, largely through the willow, and tlie luck of\na fielder bumping Into the fence. Then\nthe Nelson lads had a turn at scoring, also helped by their opponents\nwork. Blue walking, and scoring on\nnn error, which advnnced A. Bishop to\nthird. Bishop was scored by Phillips'\nsacrifice. Nelson was thus leading, but\nnot an earned run had yet been scored.\nIn the third session, Phoenix drew\nnothing, but Nelson, by means of free\npasses to first, given to H. Bishop and\nDaschbach by Strutzer two very flossy\nsteals by H. Bishop and a two-bagger\nby Battell added two more marks, In\nthe fourth, Phoenix got Kleve, the big\nfirst baseman, across the plate, he having wisely floated a two-bagger over\nthe fence and followed up scoring when\nthe ball missed Grady, or Grady the\nball. Morally. It was not an earned\nrun. Kleve lifted another two-bagger\nIn the fifth, over the fence, scoring\nStrutzei and Merrill. The first started with a dead ball, and the latter on\nballs, so far more than half of the game\nthere wns not an earned run. In the\nmeantime the fourth spasm had yielded a run for Nelson and the fifth two\nmore, but none of them clean. Both\nsides took a rest from scoring ln the\nsixth.        t\nThen opened Nelson's hatting rally,\nwhen Daschbach and A. Bishop came\nto the front of the house with two-\nbaggers, while Lapointe gracefully singled, and when H. Bishop, Daschbach\nand Lapointe had all chalked up scores\nit was found that the latter two had\nmade the first earned runs of the\ngame.

Up to this point Blue\nand Strutzei had heen pretty even in\ntheir work, and were indeed ornaments\nto the slab. Blue seemed to have a cutting edge over the Boundary man. Both\nteams were playing on their toes so far\nas fielding went, the Nelson team considerably better, and tbe game was\nfirst-class and everyone was satisfied.\nThen Blue's arm gave out, and a small\nmutter of seven runs came through\u2014\nfor Phoenix\u2014without a man being out.\nAll the runs were not the fault of\nBine's arm\u2014two of them were the offspring of beautiful bone-headed plays\nby two members of the team. At the\nsame time those Boundary men were\nnearly taring (lie cover off (lie ball,\nafter the bases bad once been filled.\nThe session ended somehow, tbe team\ncollecting itself together and sitting\nfirmly on the lid. Strutzei held Nelson\ndown for another inning, and then another slaughter appeared imminent,\nfor Blue filled tiie bases ngain. and\ntwo men reached home, but he stiffened, and got out at that point the score\nbeing 13-9.\nThe Nelson nine then showed Its\ngrit, setting out. to recover the lost\nground. Slamming Strutzei brought in\ntwo runs, but they were two short of\nthe necessary number, so Phoenix\nbore off the honors.\nAl. Gibson of Nelson, the mutual\nchoice for umpire handled the indicator\nin a satisfactory manner. Dave Chapman, Nelson's new pitcher, who has\nnot. yet been in uniform, held down a\nsent on tbe bench, acting as scorer.\nMagistrate Williams was    with   the\nPhoenix team as manager, while W.\nR.

Both\nteams shaped up magnificently In defence and it was only (the dashing tactics of tho world's champions that\npulled them out on top and then only\nby the smallest possible majority.\nThere was no score in the first\nquarter but Westminster won the game\nIn tbe second quarter when they tallied twice. In bhe third quarter Vancouver secured a goal and the final\nquarter was brilliant example of how\nto prevent scores by both teams. Vancouver had all the better of the first,\nthird and final quarters but Its home\nfell down.\nBroken 8houlder.\nTom Rennie ran into a hard body\ncheck by Johnny Howard In the second quarter and retired with a broken\nshoulder blade. He will be out of the\ngame for six weeks and it la just pos-\nBible that he will not be fit for the\nMlnto cup series with Montreal. His\nloss will be a hard one to the Westminster team for he was about the best\nthey had in the field.\nGround Wet,\nThe game was not very rough. Rain\nfell before and during first half and\ngrounds were wet and slippery which\nwas responsible for a lot of the heavy\nwork, players falling all over the field\nat times. The teams lined up the same\nas at the last exhibition game, except\nthat Sandy Gray wns at goal for Westminster and Galbraith took Feeney's\nplace and for Vancouver Adamson took\nRavey's place. Many penalties were\nimposed by Referee Dltchburn, Vancouver getting a total of 50 minutes and\nWestminster 67 minutes.\nFrom New Westminster.\nNEW WESTMINSTER, May 24\u2014By\na score of two goals to one, Westminster defeated Vancouver In a hard\nfought lacrosse match tbls afternoon,\nthe teams being evenly .matched. The\nsalmon bellies had tbe advantage of\nhome guards and can hold their feet\nbetter on wet grass. The locals scored\ntheir two goals in the second quarter\nwhile Vancouver secured their lone one\nin the third. Six men on each side\nwere penalized three for twenty minutes for fighting. Tom Rennie, Westminster's centre, suffered a broken\nshoulder blade, the result of body\nchecking by Howard. He will be off\nthe game for six weeks. Dave Gibbons,\nVancouver's goal tender, was laid out\nfor a few minutes.\nCrowd of Spectators.\nIn spite of Inclement weather nearly\nfive   thousand   people   attended   the\nmatch.

Although not the richest\nstake offered at the Woodbine, _t is\none of the most coveted by Canadian\nowners while it Is also the one in\nwhich the greatest public interest is\ntaken, while the fact that all the contestants are maiden racers, adds the\nspice of uncertainty.\nNow a Woodbine Fixture.\nFor the first 23 years after its establishment, the race had no permanent\nhome, being run at no less than fifteen\ndifferent tracks in Ontario, the first\nfour contests were at Carleton, now\nWest Toronto. While later it was run\nfour times at London, but not consecutively; at Hamilton, Ottawa and\nWoodbine Park, Toronto, twice each\nand once each at Guelph, St. Catharines, Whitby, Kingston, Barrle, Pres-\ncott, Plctou and the Newmarket track,\nnear Toronto. In 1883 it was made a\nfixture at the Woodbine and has been\nrun there ever since, the distance was\na mile and a half, but this was reduced to a mile and a quarter in 1887. In\n1891 Mr. J, E. Seagram won with Victorious, the first of eight uninterrupted\nvictories, but since that year the Waterloo horseman has had to divide the\nhonors with the Hendries, Dyment and\none year with a dark horse, Mr. T.\nAmbrose Woods, 30 to 1 shot Kelvin.\nMINING STUDENTS\nTO VISIT NELSON\nFrom   McGill   University\u2014Are  Making\nTour of Kootenay\u2014To Visit\nBoundary Camps.\n{Special to The Bally News.)\nCVHESTON, May 24\u2014An excursion\nparty of McGill college mining students numbering some 25 in charge of\nDr. John Bond Porter, professor of McGill college arrived In Creston this\nmorning at 9 o'clock on their way to\nNelson. This party is making its annual tour of Canada with a view of\nvisiting the principal mining camps.\nLast year they visited the mining\ncamps in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Before reaching Creston on this\ntour they had visited the \"Crown Reserve.\" The \"Kerr Lake\" and the\n\"Conlagos\" mines at Cobalt They\nhave also visited Coleman where they\nstayed seven days as well as Moyie\nwhere they remained six days. These\nstudents who are mostly three term\nmen are being distributed among the\nvarious mining camps in British Co*\nlubla this season where they can obtain a practical knowledge of the way\nthe work Is done. In order to do this\nthese young men who are made up\nfrom the best homes of Ontario, Quebec and other provinces of the Dominion will take off their coats and go to\nwork in the various mines for the next\nthree or four months and thus obtain a\npractical knowledge that they could\nnever obtain in any other way. ThiB\nparty of mining students will visit the\nmines at Nelson. They will then proceed to Phoenix and from there they\nwill go to Greenwood and Rossland\nand It is expected that the tour will\nbe finished by June 2. By that time\nall of the students will have been distributed among the various mining\ncamps. Dr. John Bond Porter who Is\nln charge of the party appears to be\na great favorite with the students.\nDuring their short stay of about half\nan hour at Creston the students expressed themselves ln no uncertain\nterms about the beauty of Creston and\nmany of them stated that before they\nreturned to the east again they intended to stop off again at Creston and\nsee aome of the surrounding country\nwith a view in some cases of purchasing small blocks of orchard lands here.\nReferee, Billy Dltchburn of Victoria.\nChambrelaln's Stomach tnfl L!WJX_E\nlets assist nature In driving all ^purities\nout of the system, Insuring *\u00bb*\u2022\u00bb\u25a0\u00a3\nregular condition and restoring the \u00abg*ns\nof the body to health and strength.

We were\nagreeably surprised to see that you had\ntaken such an Interest in the game and\nIt made our fellows look pretty cheap.\nHowever, as the Englishmen say, they\nare going to buck up to it and I hope\nIt will not be long before they will be\nfollowing your example.\nUnlocked for Results \\\nThis lacrosse movement among the\nhoys Is receiving uulooked for results.\nWhen we started the ball rolling in the\nearly spring we little anticipated that\nthe movement would spread so generally but the trouble at the present time\nIs that It has spread so rapidly that\nIt is impossible to take care of the\nnumber of teams which are applying\nfop lacrosse sticks.

A. Brill, clinical assistant In the\ndepartment of psychiatry and neurology\nIn Columbia university, is the man who\nhas dragged the dream from its lair and\ndissected It.\nHere are Borne of the things he says\nabout dreams in his latest article, which\nappeared ln the New York Medical Jour-\n\"Modern psychology has continued the\nwork of ancient writers, and as a result\nwe have numerous valuable contributions\nto the problem of the dream; numerous\nattempts have been made to show the relation of the dream to normal and abnormal life, but so far as I know no author\nhas solved the problem of the dream so\nIngeniously as has Prof. Freud of Vienna.\nIn developing Its psychology of the psch-\noneuroses, Freud found that the dream\nplayed a very Imnortant part in inepBj-che\n.of the Individual,\n\"The dream is not a senseless jumble,\nbut a perfect mechanism, and when analyzed it Is found to contain the fulfilment\nof a wish; it always treats of the Inmost\nthoughts of the personaltly, and for that\nreason gives us the best access to the unconscious.\n\"No psychnnalysls Is complete, nay, possible, without the analysis of dreams. The\ndream not only helps us to interpret symptoms, but is often an invaluable Instrument in diagnosis and treatment. The\ncausative factors of many neuroses are\nextremely vngue and usually unconscious\nto the patient, and it Is by means of the\ndream that the underlying actlologlcal factors are disclosed.\nDream  Quite Absurd.\n\"This dream Seems absurd enough, as\nthe dreamer remarked. \"It Is so ridiculous\nthat I am ashamed to tell It. Whoever\nheard of such a thing as chickens talking?' She was assured that it must mean\nsomething, and the analysis proceeded.\nFor the technique of the analysis I will\nhave to refer the reader to my former\nwritings.\n\"It would be too long and Immaterial-to\nthe article In hand to give here the whole\nanalysis which when recorded covered over\neight pages of foolscap. Only the principal associations and symbolic expressions\nnecessary to explain the dream will be\nenumerated.\nOn asking the dreamer what the most\nvivid part of the dreain wns, she answered\nthat it was the second part, relating to\nthe chickens. When asked to repeat the\nthoughts evoked by concentrating her\nmind on the word 'chickens,' she gave the\nfollowing: 'I could only see the biggest\nchicken; all the others seemed blurred; it\nwas unusually big and had a very long\nneck, and It spoke to me. The street recalls where I used to go to school, I\ngraduated from public school when I was\n1.1. The block was always crowded with\nchickens from school.'\nIt Is unnecessary here to go deeply Into\nthe profound psychological explanation of\ndreams and their effects formulated by\nDr. Drill, but enough must be quoted to\nunderstand the physician's methods In\nconsideration of the somewhat romantic\ncase to be referred to later,\n\"In order to understand the mechanism\nof dreams,\" he says, \"It will be necessary\nto bear ln mind Freud's conception of repression. To forget Is a part of human\nnature; this Is so obvious that we never\neven stop to think about it. Yet when\nwe examine the things forgotten we soon\nfind that there Is a method ln forgetting;\nour forgetting seems to follow a kind of\nselection.\nMotives for Forgetting.\n\"It was Freud who first called attention\nto the motives of forgetting. If we exclude organic brain disturbances we find\nthat we are most apt to forget painful\nand disagreeable impressions.\n\"This forgetting, as every one knows,\nis purposeful and desired. The individual\nstrives at all times to rid himself of the\nunbearable either by settling the situation\nIn question when possible or by directly\ncrowding it out of his mind. When we\nmeet with mishaps or failures to which\nwe cannot adequately react we grieve over\nthem for a time, and then make desperate\nefforts to forget them\u2014that is, we repress\nthem.\n\"The repression Is not, however, always\nsuccessful, and I have shown In former\nworks, a splitting of consciousness may\nresult. The repressed complexes then\nstrive for manifestation, and the resultant\npsychio conflict may produce a psychosis\nor neurosis,\n\"The formation of dreams la brought\nabout by the working of the two psychic\nforces (streams or symptoms), one of\nwhioh forms the wish of the dream, while\nthe other exerts Its censorship on this\nwish, and thus produces the distortion.\nThe reason for our belief ln this second\npayschic force possessing the power of censoring Is as follows:\n\"The latent thoughts of the dream are\nnot known until the dream has been subjected to analysis. What we remember\non awakening are the manifest contents\nof the dream emanating from the former.\nWe can therefore assume that the admission to consciousness is the prerogative\nof the second psychic system. Nothing\nfrom the first system can reach consciousness without having passed through the\nsecond system, and tbe latter allows nothing to pass without exerting its prerogative of censoring. At the point of transition beween the two systems we have the\nfsychic censor, which, after exercising its\nunctions, allows to pass only that which\nle agreeable to it, and restrains everything\nelse. Whatever is rejected by the censor\nIs In a state of repression.'\nThree Classes of Dreamt.\nDr. Brill divides dreams Into three, classes: (1) Those which represent an unre-\npressed wiBh as fulfilled. <3) Those which\nrepresent the realisation or a repressed\nWASH VESTS\nSome men do not wish to\ndiscard the vest during the\nspring and eummer seasons,\nbut prefer Instead a washable\nvest, i\nNothing Quite So\nNeat and Dressy\nWe have a splendid showing of the season's newest\nstyles in a great variety of\n-washable fabrics.\nNeatly made, detachable\npearl buttons and good linings; 35 to 44 chest; $1.75,\n$2.25, $2.50, $3 to $3.50.\nFANCY HOSE\nOur line of Hosiery Is extensive\nenough for any man to pick out\nthe hose he wants, In the color\nhe wants and at the price he\nwants to pay.

We will let pr,\nBrill tell it. He describes it as an illustration of the relation of the dream to tlie\nneurosis, which is the subject of his article.\nMiss G., 28 years old, American, came\nto me In January, 1908. because she had\nheen very nervous for about three months.\nHer familv history showed that her family\ndied of nephritis, and had a 'stroke' (left\nhemiplegia, a few months before he died.\nShe had been well until three months he-\nfore. Since then she had suffered from\nInsomnia, Irritability, loss of appetite,\nheadache, uncalled for worry, crying .pells,\nand anxious expectation. Her mother\nstated that she had entirely changed, and\nshe expressed pessimistic ideas, often repeating that she would like to die.\n\"Examination showed all the Bjrrnptoms\nenumerated. The patient was pretty, she\nshowed no stigmata, and was above the\naverage In Intelligence. While reciting her\nstory she showed the typical belle indif-\nferenco often found In hysteria. She\nsmiled when I asked her why she felt so\ndepressed, nnd could give no reason for It.\nShe knew that she really had nothing to\nworry about, that she had everything to\nlive for, yet she could not 'shake off the\nblue feeling.'\n\"One of the most distressing thoughts\nwas that something might happen to her\nmother. Whenever her mother was out of\nher sight she thought of all sorts of sad\npossibilities, and as a result of this Bhe\nshowed an abnormal affection for her\nmother. To those acquainted with the\nlanguage of hysteria thla means just the\nopposite.   It was merely a compensation\nfor the wish that she might not lose her\nmother, and as we shall see later there\nwas a reason for that wish. Physically\nthere was nothing worth mentioning. I\ndiagnosticated the case as a mild anxiety\nhysteria   with   Imperfect  conversion.\n\"I saw her n number of times, but made\nno progress In the treatment. To my questions she always answered; 'I feel about\nthe same.' 1 then thought of psychanaly-\nsls, and with that in view I asked her to\nwrite out her dreams and bring them to\nme. She was sure that she never dreamed\nexcept when her stomach was out of order,\nbut promised to comply with my request\nif ever she could, and one day she brought\nme the following dream:\n**I dreamed that I wns in a lonely country plnce and was anxious to reach my\nhome in Lleonow, or Liiconor Bay, but\ncould  not set there.

Delegates were present from\nail over the province. The chief resolution submitted by the convention, under\nthe BuperviBlon of their convener, Mrs.\nMinnie A. Ritchie, was that which referred In touching and impressive manner to\nthe death of King Edward VII. A copy\not the resolution will be sent to the royal\nfamily. Miss West, who endeares herself\nto all who have the pleasure of meeting\nher, will address the public of Nelson on\nthe evening of May Si.\nA lady staying at the Strathcona under\nthe nom de plume of Miss Malcom Kerr\nwaB understood, on information from various sources, to he the Dowager Duchess\nof Marlborough. The Information was\nconfirmed when an old acquaintance who\nhappened to be staying at the same hotel,\narriving a day or two later, came up to\nspeak to her and, unaware that she was\ntravelling incognito, addressed her under\nher usual designation. Lady Marlborough\nand her travelling companion, \"Miss Mad-\ndock,\" were delighted to meet him and\nalso forgot about the Incognito for the\ntime being. In conversation, the duchess\nexpressed herself as more delighted with\nNelson and Its surrounding, than any\nuLher place she hud visited on her trip.\nEverything was charming, sho said, and\nwlille she had Intended to stay for only\nu night sUe remained two or three days.\nThomas Sargent went to Kaslo yesterday\nmorning in lils launch. On the way back\nin tlie afternoon he was struck by tlie\nstorm at Ainsworth and spent an Interesting halt hour. Finally, however, he pulled\nthrough without mishap.\nProf. Judd ami-Mrs. Watt, lecturers of\nthe provincial department of agriculture,\nwho will address the Farmers' Institute,\nand Woman's Institute twice tomorrow,\narrived in the city last night and are\nguests at the Strathcona.\nAT THE THEATRES.\nThe James Fax Concert Company Give\nFinished Performance.\nAn exceedingly pleased and enthusiastic\naudience greeted Jimmy Fax, the celebrated humorist, and his excellent concert\ncompany at the opera house last evening.\nThe entertainment was a lirst class performance, Mr. Fax being supported by\nan exceptionally strong company of artists. The program was varied enough to\nplease everyone. Jimmy, of course, was\nthe chief attraction, and he demonstrated\nbeyond a doubt his wonderful power of\nportraying all the characters and all nationalities. Mr. Fax's singing of Scotch\nand Irish songs was an Immense treat\nand so thoroughly appreciated that he\nwas recalled every time ho appeared, and\nwas obliged on two occasions to appear ,\na third time before the audience was satisfied.\nMiss Ida George Elliott has a delightfully sweet soprano voice, and Mr. De\nMllle's fine baritone waa heard to excellent\neffect in \"Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind,\"\nOne of the musical gems of the evening\nwas the duet by Miss Elliott and Mr.\nDe MUle, given ln response to an encore,\n\"Ye Banks and Braes.\" Miss aalbralth'B\nrecitations, dramatic and humorous, were\ndelivered with splendid effect and were\nwarmly applauded. Every number on the\nprogram was heartily encored and the\nartists good naturedly responded.\nThe program at the Gem theatre tonight\nincludes, \"The Stampede ln the 101 Ranch,\"\na splendid picture by the Sellg company;\n\"In the Watches ot the Night,\" a drama\nby the American Biograph company; \"A\nBad Case,\" and \"The Strength of Love,\"\ntwo pictures by the Oaumont company,\nwhich are up to their high standard, and\na Sellg comlo entitled, \"Spring Has Come,\"\ncomplete the program.\nThe woman with a past has been a\nfamiliar subject dealt with by play writers\nfor many years with more or less disagreeable effect. \"St. Elmo\" presents a man\nwith a paBt, and his redemption at the\nhands of one of the sweetest little heroines of the stage makes a production that\nloses none of the force ot the unpleasant\nplays, but leaves the spectator with a\nfeeling that he is better for having witnessed the performance.\nFollowing closely the lines of August\nJ. Evans' successful novel of the same\nname, \"St. Elmo\" presents a little wild-\nflower of a girl who hears almost the first\nunkind words in her life from the lips of\nSt. Elmo, the misanthrope. A series of\ndisasters transfers the Innocent girl of\nthe woods into the splendid household\nwhere 9t. Elmo's word Is law.\nShe loves him and remains true to her\nlove through countless temptations. St.\nElmo lights against his love for the girl.\nHe tests her faith In every way; he\nplunges Into more desperate affairs than\never, but cannot escape the girl's steady\nInfluence for good.\nA more powerful series ot situations\nthan Is presented by tho play could not\neasily be imagined. It provides the right\nkind of a problem play.\nThis splendid attraction will be at tho\nopera house next Saturday, matinee and\nevening.\nThe change ot program at the Empire\ntheatre this evening Includes several interesting features, one a fine industrial\nand scenic film, showing \"The Honey Industry in France.\" Others are, \"The Persistent Poet,\" Three Fingered Jack,\" and\n\"Hector, the Angel Child.\" The last announcement prior to the final count In the\npopularity contest will be made this evening.\ncompany's, or direct, all charges prepaid,\nby the Canadian makers, tho Glroux Mfg.\nCo., Fort Erie, Ont.\nBA8EEALL SCORES\nNational League\nWon Lost P.C.\nPittsburg 16    10    .615\nChicago   17    11    .607\nCincinnati     16     12     .571\nNew York 17     14     .548\nSt. Louis 16     16     .500\nPhiladelphia    13    14    .481\nBoston   ..11     19     .366\nBrooklyn   11     21     .344\nAt Pittsburg\u2014Pittsburg-New York\ngame postponed; rain.\nAt St. Louis\u2014Brooklyn 6, St. Louis\n0; batteries, Bell and Berger; Bieger,\nWillis and Phelps.\nAt Cincinnati\u2014Cincinnati 0, Boston\nLi;  batteries, Anderson, Cantwell, Be-\nbeo and McLean; Curtis and Smith.\nAt Chicago\u2014Chicago 6, Philadelphia\n3; batteries, Mclntyre and Archer;\nBrennan, Moore and Dooin,\nAmerican League\nWon Lost P.C.\nPhiladelphia  20       7     ,741\nNew York  18      R\nBoston    16\nDetroit  17\nCleveland  ... \u201e 13\nWashington   13\nChicago     9\nSt. Louis     6\nArmour's Star\nSmoked Ox Tongue\nJust In; weight about 5 lbs.\neach; price 32c. per lb.
