'> SoiiK months ago, two men were arrested tit Vancouver, charged with holding up a bookmaker \"of that city. Those men, McDonald and Hogan; had some money on them when arrested, ' and of course it was taken in charge liy the police. Tlieir trial will be on iu a few days,'and they hud to'get money to pay, their lawyer, so they made an application before Sir. Justice Martin through tlieir lawyer, for the return of the money found on Ihem when arrested. Blr. Justice Martin granted the order, and no doubt the money found its way to the pocket of their lawyer. Supposing it should happen that Hogan and McDonald were found \/guilty of the crime with whi6h they aire charged, and thai tlie money-paid to the lawyer was part of what was stolen, in what way would the victim proceed to get his money back ? Somewhere itis written'that the receiver of stolen goods is not altogether guiltless of crime. When the demand for good houses \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdexceeds tlie supply, it ib generally tin- -dcrstood that times aro prosperous, and \"tbat.house building for rental purposes will soon become protTGible. This is .about the situation in Nelson at the \"present time. There is scarcely a good house vacant in the city, and the real \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdestate agents avc turning away applicants everyday. Tiiere has-not been very much house-building going on for the past year or two, but it is evident that the carpenters will be busy in thc near future. that Charlie was convinced that the interpreter was holding back something in tlie translations, or it may have been that he thought the interpretations were not full enough to be interesting to the audience; so he threw in a few ilowers on hia own account. Certainly the additions did not detract from the interest of the occasion; but itis doubtful if those who listened to the interpretations of thein- tcrpretor cat) be regarded as having added extensively to tlieir knowledge of the customs of the Chinese. Nevertheless, as wus before remarked, the explanations were interesting, and not the least interesting was Marshal Waterman's happy reference to the blushing bridesmaids. It looked like paint. At the recent meeting in Leeds of 'the British Trades Congress, parliament as well as the party leaders came in for a good deal of condemnation as being out of toucli and sympathy with the needs of tho woiking classes; but when one John Ward representing the navvies' union, in \"the course of a speecli on militarism and conscription, \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd remarked that at present the* King was about the only-statesman iu England \"-\"possesses and thc only friend of peace, thc congress cheetVd.aguin and \"again. When tho speaker had.,concluded it gave ,\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd him an enthusiastic ovation. Hitherto these trades congvc.->&cd have treated monarchy in a llippant, hostile temper. This demonstration, therefore, indicated a marked change. But it cannot be attributed to a more generous sentiment toward monarchy as an institution. It was a recognition of the King's appreciated labors in behalf of peace, of which ,the recent arbi- -tralion treaties are but one and hatred ef the policy of conscription that not long ago was seriously advocated at the war office.

Although surrounded by highly respectable and well-behaved muinies, it appears that this vicious relic persists iii bringing bad luck to whomever conies in contact with it. The gentleman who originally bought the elaborately encased figure, lost his entire fortune; the photographer who photographed it, met with uu accident, broke two cameras and was the pained spectator of hia child's fall into a cucumber frame tlie same day; and even then who were sent to move the mummy, met with bruises and cuts. There isa wealth of reading in the mummy's adventures for those who aro inclined to be superstitious. . One of the most amusing,.if not interesting, features'\"of lhe recent Fair was the Chinese procession. Apart .'\"from tbe gorgeous costurnes in which those who took part in ttie procession were arrayed, much interest centred ia the solemnity, with whieh lhey invested the whole proceedh.gs. But the climax wti3 probably reached when Charlie Waterman undertook an explanation of \"tlie various emblems carried by the processionists and their \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd costumes. Whatever kitowledgeChar- iie may possess of John Chinamen,'it cannot be said that it includes\" 'an intimate acquaintance wiih the idiom of the Celestial. Therefore ilie had to call into requisition the services of an An eastern writer comments on the circumstance that the visit which the band and pipers of the famous \"Forty- twa\" are now paying to Canada is very different from the conditions which existed when the regiment first crossed the Atlantic. There was* no \"entente cordiale\" then, and when, in June, 175G, the Black Watch disembarked at New York,under Lieutenant- Colonel Francis Grant, son of the Laird Grant, ib was their object to be in readiness to repel any attempts on British territory which the French might make from Lake Champiain. The French, however, limited their efforts to the erection of the fort of Ti- conderogn, on the shores of the lake. In the autumn 600 recruits, all Highlanders\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdfor at that period none others were admitted\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdjoined the 42nd, who were 700 strong when they sailed from Greenock. This force was part ofthe army which unsuccessfully stormed Ticondcroga on July 8, 1758, under Major-Gener.il Abercromby. It was tho stiongebt regiment in his army, and was fully equipped and in native dress. The officers worea narrow gold braiding around their tunics, all other lace being laid aside to make them less conspicuous to the French and Canadian riflemen. The sergeants wore silver lace.on their coats, and carried the\/Lochaber j\/xe,.the head of which was fitted for hewing, -hooking, or spearing an enemy, or such other work as might be found before tlie ramparts of Ticonderoga. Many of the men had been out iu the rising of '43. In this, tlieir first \"encounter with the French on American .soil, the Black Watch (Am Freiceadan Dubh) suffered heavily\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdeight officers, nine sergeants, and S97 men were killed; and 17 officers, 10 sergeants, anil 306 soldiers wounded. Of the officers killed two were named Campbell, which was the name of four of the wounded officers, other'three of whom were Grahams. Of these was Captain Thomas Graham, of Duohray, whose ancestor John Giaham, of Duchray, according to a book lately published by a lady of the Inchbrakie family, raised Jhe_Black^ Watch. . Mi:. Aulay -Mokriso'x has ' beeu appointed a Supreme Court Judge for British Columbia to take tlie place of Mr. Justice Drake, superannuated. The Economist extends its heartiest congratulations to Mr. Justice Morrison, and at the same time expresses the belief that he will preserve the best traditions of the Bench in British Columbia. This paper freely confesses that it would \"have been better pleased had a condition of the appointment of thc new judge been that he would reside in Kootenay. The Bar of the interior has expressed itself almost unanimously in favor of a resident judge, and, if the Government 1ms not had some understanding to this effect with Mr. Justice Morrison, it has simply ignored the wishes of the Kootenay lawyers. The actual results of the Nelson Fair cannot be computed in dollars and cents, although it is satisfactory to note tbat tbe amount of money taken in at the gate fully came up to tbe expectations of the promoters. - It will be some years before the public will be enabled to fully estimate the beuefits tbat must follow the exhibition just closed. If the Fair of last year resulted in educating hundreds as to the capabilities of the Kootenay as a fruit-growing country what will be the consequence of the second annual exhibition ? It is no exaggeration to assert that hundreds who visited the Fair tbis year were simply amazed at tbe evidences of what had been taking place around them during the past few years. As one gentleman put it: \"Supposing I had left here when I came off the Crow's Nest a few years ago, and some one had met me in New Brunswick and told me that he had seen an exhibition of fruit like this in Nelson, I would have thought he was crazy or telling lies.\" This is the situation exactly, and the marvellous thing in connection with it all is that it only occurred to a few tnat the Kootenay district v\/ould ever be known otherwise than the'centre of a mining industry; yet in an in inconceivably short space of time it has been demonstrated that here iu the mountains can be grown \"enough fruit to supply not only home consumption, but also in years to come to close out all competition in the territorial market at our doors. And it has been shown that the fruit grown here is not only equal to tbe product of the east, but better. A gentleman present, who had just returned from the Toronto exhibition, remarked tbat the display of fruit there could in no respect be compared to what was on exhibition at the Nelson Fair. Therefore, in this respect, il no other, will the Nelson Fair prove beneficial. It will be surprising if the demand for fruit ranches does not continue until every available acre is under fruit.- And it must not be-thought the laud \"suitable for this is limited; there is quite enough to support a population equal to the most populous districts in the east. The Fair aiso served as a text-book of what is going on around us in tbe way of mining development. So far* mining has been' the staple industry of the interior, and that it will remain so, there cap be no doubt. It often { x. perplexes even-the oldest residents of the Kootenay to answer the questions that are asked by newcomers with regard to, mining development.. While it is not likely that anyone person will ever possess enough knowledge to answer all tbe interrogatories that will be\" put tohim-by.the average man from the east, yet a' careful study of what he saw at the Fair would enable hiin to deal- fairly intelligently1 with the industry, that has made British Col- Opera House to-night, when \"Michael Strogofl\" will be present***for ithe first time to a Nelson audience, has been very good for the, week, but no better than the merit of,the, pef-'A:Ai|$5 formances deserved.

But the display from the smelters was the most interesting. It was a lesson in the development of the lead industry, which has commanded so much atlention the past few years. Altogether the mining exhibit was a most creditable one. It is not within the limit of this article to particularize the many worthy articles exhibited at the Fair; the Daily News has presented the public with a detailed report of the various exhibits; but suffice it to say that in every department were evidences of excellent taste and progressive spirit. It was shown that Nelson is making much that is needed-at home and is on a fair way to export a little as time advances. A word however, must be said in praise, of the men who contributed so much towards the success of the Fair. Secretary Annable has shown himself o be a man of great capacity in his management of the enterprise. He has worked night arid day to bring about the desired result, and all must admit that the. work could not have been in better hands. He was ably assisted by many patriotic citizens, prominent among whom were those mentioned last week, but it. would take more space than this paper has at its disposal to give the full list.

Avi? \"\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd;.%\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ENT DISSOLVED Word has been received in Nelson that the elections for the House of Commons are to to take place on the 3rd of November next. The contest will therefore be short and sharp. Prognostications as to the result thereof are, we see, being indulged in by not a few of our contemporaries. This is harmless amusement. No one is injured thereby. We observe that our morning contemporary predicts tbat the Conservative party will be utterly routed in the contest, worse indeed than was the case in 1900. We would indeed have anticipated that its \"prophesies would be ofsuch a character. It is too-strong a party organ not to be ^ the father of such a thought. Were we disposed to prophecy, we would forecasfa differenTresultAThe Province of Ontario will certainly go against the Government by a large majority. And so will Manitoba and the North-West Territories. The Government will carry Quebec very likely, but by a much decreased majority. Our anticipation is that the western part of that Province will reverse the verdict of 1900 in many constituencies. Down by the Atlantic the Con servative party appears to anticipate a much closer result than there was in the last House. In this Province, our expectation is \"that a majority of the Coast constituencies will return Conservatives; while in tbe belated constituencies of the Interior, the result will be largely affected by the issue of prior elections. Looking over Canada as a whole, we anticipate that neither party is going to have a large majority, that the House to.be elected will be a somewhat close one.

These relicts are creatures of infinite variety and come from all grades of socitil life. They are grave and gay, severe and soft-hearted, sensible and silly, haughty and humble, pretty and ugly, young and old, Few of them possess tbat sweet stupidity with which the'author'eridows his favorite heroines ; but it may be said in their praise that not one of them is an outan-out termagant like Thackeray's Mrs. McKensiie. For the most part they are more sloppy and sentimental limn self-willed or strong-minded. These widows are evidently not drawn con am ore. They rather serve to emphasize that warning, \"Jlevare of vid- ders,' which the elder Weller gives to his son Kamivei. oMost formidable of them all is the grim, determined, busi- \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd interpreter!'

By a strenge irony.of fate she chooses as her second husband the stern, uncongenial Mr. Murdstone. The haughty, obdurate Mrs. Steerforth, mother of the profligate but gifted James, and Mrs. Markham, who on account of her astute generalship the schoolboys called \"the old soldier,\" are two other widows of the story. But tiiere are two others, each of whom illustrates an all too frequent type of feminine character. These aire the lachrymose Mrs. Gummidge, and that \"lone, lorn creetur,\" the mother of that cringing, sneaking, \"'umble\" Uriah Heep.\" \"Little Dorritt\" contains four widows, Mesdames Ebenham, Finching, Gowan and General. The first is a paralytic bent on mischief, the second is kind-hearted but full of sentimental affections, the third is a prim, curtly old lady, and Mrs. General, the gov erness of Mr. Dorritt's daughters, is a \"cold, waxy woman who never lighted well.\" \"The Old Curiosity Shop\" has three widows, most familiar of whom is Mrs. Geniwin, mother-in-law of the horrible Mr. Quily, with whom she wages perpetual warfare. \"Oliver Twist\" introduces us to two widows, Mrs. Bedwin and Mrs. Bumble, neither of whom Is a striking personality. In \"Great Expectations\" we find an amiable Mrs. Brondley, and an abject, toadying Mrs. Coller, who seeks to make her way by fulsome flatteries, smiles and tears. \"Bleak House,\":\"Hard;:Times\".and the \"Uncommercial Traveler\" \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd have each two widows of widely varying aspect and individually. ; .Mrs...Fielding of \"The Cricket on the Hearth\" is a querulous Mrs. Gummidge, a replica of Mrs; Wilfer, who is called \"the tragic'liiuse.\" The mother of Nicholas Nickelby in the novel of that name is a sort of Mrs. Malaprop, who. talks incessantly witliouteaying any thing and makes sad havoc with her parts of speech. \"Dombey and Son\" has three widows of striking characteristics. Mrs. Granger marries Dombey for bis money and elopes with his clerk; Mrs. Skew- ton at seventy affects the aire and dress of a girl of sixteen, and Mrs MacStinger has already been mentioned. \"The Mystery of Edwin Drood,\" the latest and unfinished novel of Dickens, contains three widows, but space fails U3 to dwell upon their salient traits or those of other less prominent relicts in the Dickens gallery. * ~\/v' ' '\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd The minstrel performance referred last week will be given at the Opera House Thursday and Friday, nights of next week.

The audience was more or less lamiliarwith Hamlet, in which he bas won so many admirers, and with other elassEc portrayals. But Mr. Nelson has row dropped, for tbe time, his Shakespean characters for the more dashing and popular romantic roles. Amidst the clatter of. hoofs, dressed in a strikingly beautiful hunting costume, with his game-bag thrown over bis shoulder, and spurs clanking on bin boots, Mr. Nelson made a telling entrance. Frem this time the actor gave to his patrons the most pleasant surprise possible. It was evident that he was able to amuse and delight people along the lines of high comedy, as well as to awe them in heavy tragedy. He played with easy grace, and hia art revealed the transition from the lazy, indifferent prince to the diplomatic ruler in a manner which the audience applauded vigorously. The play is unusually interesting, and is given: with rich sce'u-ry, handsome costumes and charming lighting effects. Mr. Clifford Lane Bruce was a handsome and interesting Stalbacb; Miss Helen Scott was convincing as the Princess, and Mr. Blake a manly Oscar. Mr. Till scored a success as the pompous Town Crier, with an unquenchable thirst. Mr. Garrette, as Prime Minister, played with dignity and finish.\" Joe Wilson bas sold hk 49-acre fruit ranch at Creston, and while the sum- is not given, it is large enough to afford its late owner a prolonged season of rest. Gus. Evans, editor of the Grand Forks Sun- was a visitor to the Nelson Fair, and spent much time in gazing at the big pumpkins and other products of this great agricultural district.

It is said that It ls coming to be tht fashion again to use the word \"lady,\"' and that the ^wprd \"party\" is also jn better favor. For'some years modish persons have\" called ladles \"women\/', end parties- \"functions.\" ' There wai ^\ufffd\ufffdome excuse for the former substitution because \"lady\" was worked to death, \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand so misused as to make It ridiculous. But vague as its meaning Is, it has a meaning (or meanings), to the conveyance of which it is Indispensable. and the folks who have dismissed it from their vocabularies have not been persons of much philological discernment. The .us* of \"function\" for \"party\" has been a mere fad that must have started aa a pleasantry and gradually becam# ft habit.
