The fire\nthat started In one of the rooms sometime ago is now under complete control, tlio entrance to the burning rooms\nhaving heen closed. Nearly all tbe\nminers are at work again, mostly in\nthe main entry and lhe part of the mine\nnot effected. Though the fire is out\nthe portion of the mine affected will be\nHo3cd for three or four weeks yet.\nThe safety of Frank again seemed\nthreatened today by a flre which started\nin the restricted district west of town,\nabout 3 o'clock this afternoon. Although a number of men working at the\nlime kilns near by endeavored to put\nout the fire, fanned by a swift wind, the\nflames were soon beyond control, and\nspread rapidly to the adjoining houses.\nIn a short time three of them were in\nashes. For a time fears were entertained that the fire would reach Frank as\nthe brush and timber surrounding the\nbouses made excellent fuel for the fierce\nelements. '\nThe police with the help of a large\nnumber of men from town finalty succeeded in checking the fire and prevented it from spreading to the timber.\nThe cause of the flre is clouded in my-\nBtery since there was no one In the house\nwhere tlie flre started at the time. The\nestimated loss is about $3000 with little\nInsurance. \\  , |. j^.;-\nIn n letter received In Nelson yesterday from H. L. Frank, president of the\nCanadian-American'Coal & Coke company. Mr. Frank states that the flre has\nbad no serious effect and that it will in\nno way interfere with the plans of hts\ncompany which contemplate extensive\nImprovements to its property.\nMr. Frank stales that a new air haut-\nage system and the largest fan ever in\nuse in western Canada nre heing installed at the mine and that additional railroad yards aud greater trackage facilities nre being provided. When these improvements are completed lie expects\nthe output of the mine to be restored to\ntbe 1000-lon a day mark which obtained\nbefore the slide.\nMr. Frank also writes opUmlslIcoUy\nof the future of tbe town bearing Ilia\nname. He stutes that town lots are selling at n good price, that Hie demand for\nhouses is greater than can be met and\ntlmt in consequence the company contemplates building new ones, and in\nconclusion expresses the opinion tliat\nlhe future of Frank never was so bright\nor secure as at the present, time.\nClothing Caught.

DEANE\nMUNICIPAL ELECTIONS ACT\nA correspondent ot the Victoria\nTimes, in an amusing lettor, calls attention to certain amendments made to\nthe Municipal Elections Act at the recent session ol tho legislature.\nHo refers particularly to the amended\nInterpretation of the term \"Householder,\" which now reads:\n\" 'Householder' shall extend to and\ninclude every person who holds and occupies a dwelling, tenement, hotel or\nboarding house, or any part or portion\nof a dwelling, tenement, hotel or boarding house within a municipality, who\nhas paid, directly to the municipality,\nrates, taxes, or fees of not less than two\ndollars during the current year.\"\nThe writer thinks that this provision\nwill have the effect of disfranchising to\n, a very large extent women voters, very '\nfew of whom pay rates, taxes or fees of\nany kind into the city teraaury.\nHe Is also inclined to believe that the\ngame provision will affect a large num\nber of male voters. In this connection\nthe writer says, referring, of course, to\nthe city of Victoria: \"In a city like\nthis, where many voters live in rented\nproperty, it is generally customary for\nthe landlord to pay the taxes, including\nthe water tax, and If the tenant is past\nthe period when he has to pay a road\ntax he pays no taxes \"directly to the\nmunicipality.\" Therefore, under this\nprecious amendment he cannot vote for\nmayor, alderman or school trustee unless, forsooth, he keeps a dog and pays\na dog tax, or has been drunk and disorderly occasionally and has paid \"fees\nto the municipality\" a fow times in the\nway of police court lines. This latest\npiece of freak legislation might, therefore, have been very properly entitled\n'An act to encourage every householder\nto keep a dog,' or 'An act to discourage\nhouseholders from living sober, righteous and godly lives\/ or something of\ntho kind,\"\nThere is probably some force In the\nargument that the change In the interpretation of the term \"householder\" will\nhave the effect of excluding a largo number of women who heretofore have been\nentitled to vote In municipal elections.\nTHE RAILWAY SITUATION.\nSome few days ago The Dally News,\nin discussing the railway situation,\npointed out that J. J .Hill's plans for\ntopping the Slmlllkameen district sug\ngested the possibility of iho resources\nof that rich district being made tributary to some American coast city instead of Vancouver. This view of the\nsituation is concurred in by one of the\nVancouver papers. The Province says\neditorially:\n\"Our olt-repeated contention lhat Mr.\nHill has in view a well formulated and\ncomprehensive design upon the Similkameen, and that his designs include the\nenrichment of Seattle by diverting the\noutput of the mines to the Washington\ncity, has time and again been disputed\nby Interested persons and papers in our\nown provluce, but events are proving\nits correctness and are rapidly leading\nto a period when we will see American\ncapitalists taking the riches of that district across tbe border as they took lhe\nriches of Rossland lo build Spokane.\n\"What the result will be to Vancouver\ncan readily be perceived. With the advent of the railway there will be a big\nrush to the district, and a great deul of\nactivity. The business which will be\ncreated, and which it must be remembered will he permanent and will increase\nwith the development of the mines, will\nbe the reward which Seattle will secure\nby the enterprise of the man who is so\nsolicitous for its success. Vancouver\nwill be entirely out of tbe running, and\nmay be out of It permanently. The\nrichest mineral district of the province,\nand the one which more than any other,\nshould have been tributary to'thls city,\nwill yield Its wealth to build up a foreign community.\"\nIf Hill's plans materialize as anticipated Vancouver will have no just cause\nfor complaint. The present provincial\ngovernment is mainly a Vancouver\ngovernment. There was sufficient\nstrength in the Vancouver delegation to\nthe legislature to have compelled the\ngovernment to have enacted legislation\nthat would have assured the construction of a line of railway that would have\ngiven the British Columbia const cities\nthe shorted and most direct railroad\nconnection with the Slmllkameen, The\nVancouver members allowed Ihe session\nto pass without making a single effective\nmove In that direction.\nor public works and that sir Wilfrid\nLaurier has arranged with Mr. Justice\nNesbitt to resign from the supreme court\nbench, take the portfolio and run In\nNorth Oxford. This may he dismissed\nas a pure tory canard. Hyman, of London, Ontario, will succeed Sutherland as\nminister of public works In the event of\nthe latler's resignation by reason of ill-\nhealth. Mr. Justice Nesbltt was a pronounced conservative before he went on\nthe bench, although an appointee of the\nliberal government, and tt is not at all\nlikely that he would consider a proposal\nto resign his judgeship to enter a liberal\ncabinet, end it is still more Improbable\nthat sir Wilfrid would think of making\nany such proposal.\nNEW\nThre\nM,A I MS.

The members feel that\nIt would he unwise to mako arrangements\nunlll It is known what form the general\ncelebration will take. ,'iie success of the\nflower show will depend upon the nature\nand number of other attractions on the\nsame day, und the number of visitors intruded to the city.

The\nadministrative control of the police remains In the hands of general Walkoff,\nwho was appointed prefect in January,\nbut the police will be under the general\nsupervision of the governor general.\nKoslofTs appointment as governor\ngeneral of Moscow upon the eve of the\nanticipated troubles at Easter, April 30,\nand on May day ,May 14, although accompanied by a rescript in which emperor Nicholas speaks of the \"great interior reforms\" contemplated by him,\nleaves no doubt of his majesty's purpose\nfirst to preserve transqullity with a firm\nhand.\nKosloff distinguished himself during\nthe nihilist conspiracies 25 years ago,\nby hunting down conspirators which resulted in an attempt upon his life. The\npublic generally interprets his summons\nfrom retirement at the age of 68 aa being an indication that the harsh measures of repression then sanctioned are to\nbe revived. But the government takes\nthe position that the execution of the\nreforms is impossible until the present\nagitation and excitement are quieted.\nWith general Trepoff in St. Petersburg\nand Kosloff in Moscow it is considered\ntliat public safelly in the two places\nis assured.\nWORST IS FEARED.\nSt. Petersburg People Fearful ol Great\nUprising at Easter.\nSt. Petersburg, April 27.\u2014A feeling\nakin to consternation has been caused\nby tbe publication in this morning's\npapers of renewed rumors of an impending popular outbreak. It is feared that\nthe slightset incident, accUientuI or malevolent among the vast congregations\nwhich will attend the churches on Saturday may cause panic wltb appalling\nconsequences.\nThe mayor is being urged to convene\nthe municipal council and take special\nmeasures t^p cope with the situation and\nit is said tliat the prefect of police will\nissue a reassuring proclamation but the\nalarm is so great that it would have\nlittle effect.\nThe exodus at Easier will be unprecedented. All the accommodations at\nthe neighboring resorts have already\nbeen engaged.\nRupoi-ts from the provinces Indicate\nsimilar fears. There is a somewhat\nwidespread impression that the police\nare Inciting the masses against the intellectual clnsses.\nALL LEAVE KAMRANH\nBalance of Rojestvensky's Ships Now\nOutside of Harbor.\nKamranh Bay, April 27.\u2014The only\nships remaining in Kamranh bay are\nfour German transports.

In an Interview with a\nrepresentative of tbe Free Press, he was\nasked:\n\"Are you personally perfectly satisfied with the autonomy bill?\" was asked.\n\"Yes, I am perfectly sallsfled,\" replied Mr. Bole.. \"It is perfectly clear\nthat lhe people of lhe territories are\ngetting what Ihey waul. The system\nof national schools at. present established in lhe territories was created by\nthe statute of the legislature passed in\n1892. Prior to that time, the education\nsystem was determined by Ibe Omnibus\nAct of the dominion government In 1875,\nwhich established separate schools.\nThis was a very great and Important\nchange, but. wns carried through by Ihe\nrepresentatives of the people of the weat\nwho have since repeatedly expressed\ntheir feeling with reference thereto aud\nit has been uniformly favorable.\n\"The present autonomy bills continue\na system of national schools established\nby the representatives of the people of\nthe affected territory. It was essential\nthat the autonomy bills should specifically state what the system of education In the provinces should be for a\nreason which has been repeatedly explained . If the bills contained no\nclause regarding a system of education,\nthen the law of 1892 would continue\noperative, and the provinces would have\na system of national schools. If an appeal was made to the courts and the act\nof 1892 was declared ultra vires, then\nthe provinces would go back to the Omnibus act of 1875. and to separate\nschools. In order to prevent the possibility of this occurring, the autonomy\nbills specifically state that the national\nschools established by the act of 1892\nshall be continued.\n\"The vote on the question at Ottawa\nwill be decisive. The speeches of leading conservatives such as Monk, Bergeron, Amies and Pringle\u2014an .Ontario\nconservative who will vote with the government\u2014have I a ken tbe heart out of\nthe opposition.\"\nASCENDS WITHOUT BALLOON\nEnds\nProfessor   Leonard,   Aeronaut,\nLife, With Revolver\nProfessor John Leonard, the aeronaut.\nwhose balloon ascensions and parachute,\njumps, delighted the visitors to the agricultural exhibitions In Nelson last September and in 3003, wltl visit Nelson no\nmore.\nA week ago today lie committed suicide\nIn Tacoma by shooting himself, No reason for the action Is known.
