BOX 1545\nPRINCE RUPERT. B.C.\nThe Revival of Morris Dancing\nChildren in England are learning\nthe old-fashioned morris dances and\ntheir elders look on with delight. In\nthe large cities of the United States\nthe folk dances of the countries of\nthe old world are being taught the\nchildren of the schools in the poorer\ndistricts. This revival of dancing is\nlooked upon as an excellent sign of\nhe times by many observers.\nThe dance is glorified movement as\npoetry is glorified speech. Only, of\ncourse, in the greatest dancers is this\nmastery complete; but the ordinary\nchild can learn a great deal of the art\nof bodily expression, enough at least\nto play his part in the dance as a player\nof ordinary powers can play his part\nin a band, indeed, the art of dancing\nis e idently far easier han the art of\nj music, since children can be quickly\nI trained so that their dancing will give\nI the most exquisite pleasure to onlookers,\nI so that while they dance they seem to\nI live and move and have their being in a\ngolden age of common and innocent\ndelight. To see then dancing thus is\nto undergo a very strange und moving\nexperience. For as they take to the\ndance wiih an eagerness that proves\nthey have some inherited desire and\naptitude for it, so the sight of them\ndancing stir the onlooker to a delight\nwhich appears so familiar that there\nmust be some kind of inherited memory\nin it. They recall to him a past which\nhe has never known, they speak a\nlanguage which he has never heard yet\nunderstands as soon as he hears it.\nCauses of Long Life\nA hereditary tendency to long life.\nA moderation approaching asceticism\nin eating and drinking.\nA serene disposition.\nCongenial work, and abundance of it.\nAbility to see the playful side of\nlife\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\"the sense of humor,\" as it is\ncalled.\nDaily open-air exercise; preferably\nwalking or wood chopping.\nSound sleep every night, six to eight\nhours.\nRecuperative power.\nIt will be noted that neither health\nnor wealth is included in this summing up. In point of fact, many centenarians have had periods of Invalid-\nI ism, the result of apparently chronic\n\\ or obviously acute disease. An Am-\n; erican centenarian, Miss Yardley, who\ndied in Chicago some years ago ut the\ni mellow age of one hundred and five,\nj hud been given but six months to live\nwhen her physicians declared her n-\ncurable at eighteen. The veteran American humorist, Donald G. Mitchell\n(\"Ik Marvel\"), was also \"a hoprle.is\ncase\" before he reached twenty. In\nthese and in other cases the hinth cause\nof longevity, \"recuperative power,\" waa\nmost strongly marked. Indeed, insurance experts, espec.ally in England,\nare inclined to place the ability to recuperate as the first desirable qualifi-\nj cation for a long-life \"risk.\"\nIf absolute health is not a condition\nof longevity, great wealth is still less\nso. Most of the centenarians have\nbeen poor, or but moderately provided\nwith worldly goods. The few who\nhad command of money lived frugally,\navoiding all the grossness, all the excitement, all the fatigu- and ull th extravagances which shorten the lives of\nso many rich people.\nTWO NEW RECIPES\nMush Muffins\nTwo cupfuls of warm cornmeal mush,\ntwo cupfuls of milk, two tablespoon uls\nof sugar, two tablespoonfuls of melted\nbutter, and sufficient flour to muke a\ndrop batter. Mix in order g.ven; add\none-half yeast cake dissolved in a little\nlukewarm water, and heat five minutes\nStand i a warm place until light. Hulf\nfill your muffin rings, set on a well\ngreased griddle and, when raised and\nbrown on the under side, turn ond\nbrown on the other dies.\nCrystalized Nuta\nBoil slowly together two cupfuls of\ngranulated sugar and one cupful of\nwater until on dropping u little ice wuter\nit can be rolled in a ball between the\nfingers. Pour it into a straight sided pan\nof such size as to have the syrup one\ninch deep. Gently drop in the nuts to\nbe crystullized, not allowing one to\ntouch thc other. Set aside in a dry,\nm derately warm place and leave undisturbed for twenty-four hours. If\nhen sufficiently covered with the crystals, drain off the syrup und put the\npun in u cool pluce until the nuts are\ndry.\nHOUSEHOLD HITS\nWhen carpets are not taken up, they\ncan be greatly freshened by washing\nover with wdter to which a tablespoonful of ammonia has been added to each\npail of water. This should be done after a thorough sweeping.\nAn excellent way to remove a spot\nfrom a dark woollen skirt, is to rub it\nhard wi h a piece of soft old linen. In\nnine cases out of ten the spot will be\nabsorbed by the linen without any\ncleaning fluid being applied.\nFor a meat pie crust take a quart of\nflour, add three tablespoonfuls of lard,\ntwo and a half cups of milk, two tea-\nspoonfuls of baking powder and a teu-\nspoonfil of salt. Work all together\nas quickly and lightly us possible.\nTR0USER SKIRTS\nARE JEERED AT\nDISORDERLY SCENES ARE WITNESSED IN PARIS\nSeveral Parisian Gentlemen Thought\nthe Fashion so Unladylike They\nPelted the Wearer with Egga\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdPolice Had to Protect Woman.\nParis, Feb. 28.- Incidents of public disturbances accompanying the appearance in the streets of women wearing\nthe new trouser skirts occur daily. The\nAvenue de I'Opera was the scene of one\nof the most serious male outbreaks.\nThe woman having been surrounded by\na laughing, jeering crowd, was unable\nto proceed, and a man, taking advantage\nof the occasion, purchased a basket of\neggs from a dealer in a aide street and\ndistributed them among the other men,\nwho in order to show their disapproval\nof what they ' considered unladylike\nconduct, pelted the helpless wearer\nof the new garment until a squad of\npolice intervened and aided the woman\nto escape.\nDoubts appear to have arisen among\nthe leading Paris dressmakers as to\nwhether the skirt will be adopted by\nwomen as a general fashion. But\nfew have been ordered thus far, and\nthese have gone chiefly to women\nIrom abroad who are shopping and\nwish to take home the latest sensation.\nMany have been sent to America.\nMoving Pictures at the Phenix.\nSS.\np.m,\nSails for\nVancouver\n.

The conditions which made the blockade possible, the immense field of ice extending\nfive miles from shore, remained unchanged, although the wind lessened\nconsiderably during the afternoon. A\nwind ofT shore, it wus said, would\nrelieve the engineering department of\nmuch of its anxiety, and perhaps clear\nthc danger zone.\nForty men and a diver were engaged in clearing away thc ice and\nsand at the intake, and removed nearly\na thousand cubic feet. Two centrifugal\nsix-inch pumps were used.\nProperty and Street Commissioner\nHarris did not relax his preparations\nto extend relief, despite the improved\nconditions. Although the pressure gauge\nin Waterworks Engineer Fellowes' office indicated by twenty minutes to\nfour yesterday afternoon that normal\nconditions had been established, Mr.\nHarris allowed his men, with 108 sleighs\nand 883 barrels of water, to finish their\nrounds, the drivers increasing thc humorous features of life in the outskirts\nvery materially by tooting horns to\nlet the householders know where and\nwhen the water was to be had.\nMining Market Wakens Up\nVancouver, March 2.-556,873 shares\nof Portland Canal stock changed hands\nhere last month.

BT.\nWinni'M*-*, March 4.-There is 11\nstranite anomaly today on the editorial page of thc Free Tress, which\nis owned by Hon. Clifford Sid mi. An\neditorial leader headed \"I* aying with\nfire,' bitterl nivsails, en masse, those\nwho op|Mwu? reciprocity, while a half\ncolumn editorial devoted to Mr. Sifton's\nspeech, runs in part, as follows-.\n\"It ia this note of independence\nand personal conviction which gives\nthe speech its distinction,' making it\nthe first memorable and formidable\ncriticism of the agreement lhat has\nbeen submitted to the House. Il will\nbe universally read and gives careful and rii'|>cct'ul condiseration by\nall and not liws by those imlitical Bfr\nKociatra of Mr. Sifton who have nol\nbeen able to sec eye to eye with him\nti this matter.\"\nIn the course of the editorial attacking those who opis-pc reciprocity,\nthe Free Tress says:\n\"A blind man can see thai the agitation, in a large degree, is not spontaneous. It is being planned, minted,\nstage-manai-ed, financed and advertised.\nWho are thc men on the job? First,\nof course, the leaders of the Conservative party who, living up t thc full\nopportunities of their positions are\nopposing the government with all the\nresources at their command. Beyond\ndoubt, organised and powerful businisi\ninterests have thrown the full weiRht\nof their enormous influence into Ihe\nfray to prevent, if |ios-ilile, the ratification of the agreement. These interests\narc not difficult to identify. They are\nchiefly the manufacturers of Ontario.\nPlans and specifications prepared\n-E8TIMATE8 GIVEN \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nOFFICE: Corner Sth Ave. & Green St\nPhone No. 228 Green\nPRINCE RUPERT, B.

A. meeting\nlast nif-ht in their hall on Third avenue.\nThe* general feeling of tbe meeting wm\nexpressed by a speaker who said hat\nthe workers felt that the responsibility\nfor the strike lay entirely with the\ncontractors who still held out Bgai st\nthe 45 cent rate. The workers woultl\nbe surprised if the community of Prince\nRupert favored the com nuance of the\ndifficulty, and wished to see the improvement work in thc city to remain\nat a standstill just to suit the pockets\nof two or three contractors who were\nnot in business for their health.\nNot Angry Wi;h Council\nNo kick comes to the city council\nfrom the P. R. I. A. at present. The\nworkers' war is all against the contractors. It will be found that the\nstrongest resistance to the increase\ncomes from the English-speaking contractors concerned. Today, in fact,\nLackovitch's gang resumed operations\non Third avenue near Fifth street and\nan understanding exists that Louis\nVuckavitch will start hia men up at\nthe 45 cent rate tomorrow. There is\na strong probability thai M. Gurvitch\nwill follow suit. Mclnnis & Kelly,\n. P. McMordie, and S. H. Watson\nhold out, and remark that it is easy-\nfur the non-English speaking contractors\nto come through with the raise as they\nwork in the cuts with their gangs more\nor less, and share and share with the\nmen.\nThe Strikers' Argument\nThe strikers maintain lhat whether\nthey gain the increase or not, the contractors stand to lose by their resistance\nto it. If they try to break the strike\nwith m|-orled abor, say the men. they\nwill have to use inexperienced rockmen\nand laborers of thc Vancouver \"out\nof work\" class, clerks out of jobs, and\n\"down and outs.\" \"We have good\nmen, trained rockmen and miners in\nour ranks,\" :
