Tho llgures of the distance between Liverpool and Yokohama across\nCanada havo been given beforo, but they\nare well worth -repenting at the present\nmoment, when parliament is engaged hi\ngiving its sanction to a measure which\nwill transmute a dream into a reality:\nLverpool to St John, N.B ., 1,980\nSt. John to Quebec 3tM\nLiverpool to Quebec 8,634\nQuebec to Paclllc coast ..J. 11,280\nSan Francisco to Yokohama 4,536\nThe distances hy United States routes\narc ns follows:\nLiverpool to New York \t\nNew York to Sun Francisco\nSan Francisco to Yokohama 4,636\nWe thus have by way of St. John a distance from Liverpool lo Yokohama of\n8,820 miles, as compared with 10,165 by\nway of New York, The ocean distances\narc those given In the Century Atlas, and\nthere Is tho additional Information given\nthere that the. sallng time from Vancouver to Yokohama is fourteen days and from\nSan Francisco to Yokohama sixteen days.\nThis Is the advantage that wc gain from\nour northerly position on the globe. Tbe\ndirect Hue from San Francisco to Yokohama would involve a Journey of 4,791\nmiles. By sailing northwesterly to the 48th\nparallel the San Francisco steamers cut\n255 miles from the distance. Starting from\na, more northerly port, vessels from Canadian harbors save n still greater distance An advantage which will be a\nconsiderable one is the rond Canada is\nabout to construct will bo built with the\nconsciousness that it is to be ono of the\ngreatest highways between tho east nnd\nwest. Canada's new transcontinental rnll-\nway will have two great purposes which\nare not only inconsistent, but are, Indeed,\ncomplementary to ench other. It will, as\nhas been snld,he the rail section between\ntho west and the awakening enst, and It\nwill also double the habitable portion of\nthe dominion. As it goes through an unsettled laud It will be able to choose lo\na great extent the most direct routes,\nthe best grades, the easiest curves. From\nocean to ocean It will be under one management\u2014indeed, there is tho certainty that\nfrom the shoroa of Britain to the shores\nOf Japan, Asia, travellers and goods will\nhe under tho care of ono great company.\nAltogether our now railway should be in\nan unapproachable position to compete for\nthe vast commerce that Is already Ketllng\nln a great current westerly and easterly.\nSomeone may say, what of the Panama\neannl'.' Much of the traffic between the\nOccident and the orient will go by Panama. But Panama Is longer than the Canadian route by 3,600 miles. Passengers or\ngoods In n hurry (and the world Is lu a\nhurry these dnys) will prefer tlie quicker\ndespatch across tho dominion of Canada,\nWINNIPEG IS BUILDING\nWinnipeg, May lf>~Thc sale of the Clar-\nondon fan |I45,00O, from C.

Proprietor.\nMadden House Brc: First, rpiality; second, style; third\nfit; fourth, durability; fifth, holding\nshape; sixth, price.\nLet us first, consider what you are go-\ning to tell vour customers In regard to\nthese six things, and what you know\nphont them, or outfit to know about\n(hem. You are constantly talking about\nibnm hi your store! they should make\nt.Mr Influence felt in your ntlfl.\nFirst\u2014Quality, What do you know\nnbout the fabrics that outer into the\nnauitfncture of the clothing you handle?\nA-e thev Imported or domestic? If imported why aro they better. If any, than\ntbo domestic? Do you know where tbe\nbelt wool Is produced, how It is treated,\nrt.op by step, from the time it leaves\nl'\"> sheep's buck until It is the form of\nr'oth Have you a general idea of what\nn-pcnutlnuH nre tnken in the coloring of\nr* niece of cloth to insure permanency of\n\" dor nnd to avoid the rotting of the\n(' leads? What process is the cloth put\ntVone-b beforo cutting up for clothes to\nr-MStfj fiBflinst shrinkage aud consequent.\nr'-inj-flon? What, methods aro employed in Ihe factory where your goods are\nmanufactured to insure perfect workmanship? Finally, could you take a\npiece of cloth tlint I might bring you\nand. by examining it carefully, tell mo\nthe kind and grade and approximate its\nwearing value? All of this information\nwhich 1 know would bo Invaluable in\nyour business and in your ads, your\nmanufacturers would be glad to furnish, or you fould secure Ihe most of it\nfrom some textile school. Thero is\nnothing that so inspires confidence in,\nand enthusiasm for, ouo's goods aa a\nI borough knowledge of them, and confidence Is contagious.\nSecond\u2014Style. Is this year's style\nmaterially different from that of last\nyear? Is the coat, shorter or longer?\nAre tho shoulders broader and higher,\nor is the tendency towards a slope?\nWhat change, if any, lias there been\nmade in the cut of iho waistcoat? Are\nthe legs of the .trousers to be oul fuller\nduring tlie present season? Wbat Is\nthere new in fcabrlc designs? and what\nkind of gods Is going to be the mode?\nThe answers to these questions nre of\nInterest to nearly every possible purchaser.\nThird\u2014Fit. A garment, mny fit perfectly and lack style, but style without\nn good flt is hardly conceivable. Does\nthe coat flt around the neck, across and\non ton of the shoulders and under the\narms? Are your garments so constructed thnt they hang easily and gracefully\nand if so, why? Aro you prepared to\naccommodate short, stout or toll, thin\nmen? If a garment does not fit in every\nparticular, but in other ways Is desirable, are you prepared to quickly make\nIhe trilling changes necessary to insure a nerfect-fitting garment?\nFourth\u2014Durability, What can you\nsav In regard to the durability of the\ndifferent kinds and grades of goods that\nvou have in stork? Have yon any customers to whom you cnn point as having secured unusual wear out (tf a suit\nof clothes from your store? Are you willing to reimburse a patron if he does not\nget value received, nnd havo you the\ncourage tn mnko this statement a pnrt\nof your ad? Durability Is an important\nconisderation with nearly every buyer\nof ready-to-wear clothing, nnd its value\nns a trade puller should not be overlooked.\nFifth\u2014Holding Shape, One of ihe\nchief objections, a few years ago. to\nready-made clothing was, thnt after be-\nine worn a few times it lost Its shape\nand thnf no amount, of pressing would\nrestore it. Doubtless this objeriion has\nbeen overcome to a great extent and pos-\nsiblv your manufacturer mav be in the\nlend. What, special methods does he\nemploy in treating Iho cloth, cutting\nand malting thr garments to insure permanency of correct form? If a, suit, becomes a trifle soiled or mussed, will you\nSpnngfi and press il free?\nSixth\u2014Price. Price lias its value and\nIt becomes very powerful when a small\nprico Is attached lo extra quality, Stntwl-\nfn jJtfl\nA hotly contested game of hoseball at\nSalmo yesterday resultod In a victory for\nSalmo, Tho Ymlr team is developing great\nStrength and it Is expected thnt the name\nto bo played hore on the 24th between Ymir*\nand Ni-isoii will bo an exciting feature of\ntbo day's sports.

A man was\nburied for 21 hours in an ore shoot, with\nhundreds and perhaps thousands of tons\nof ore on top of him, and yet ho was\ntaken out alive aud comparatively uninjured.\nSaturday morning nbout S o'clock, William Hall, a miner employed at the Granby mines, was walking across the top of\ntho No. fi raise to tho No. 1 tunnel of the\nKnob II1I1 mine, Tiie shoot bad been\nfilled for some time, but It was seemingly\nnot known Hint the ore hnd boon gradually taken away from beneath, leaving\na thin and treacherous crust of ore, as it\nwer.e at the top. As Hall went over It,\nthe whole mass went down, and he was\nquickly engulfed ami covered up by the\npitiless chalcopyrite, which closed In on\nhim on all sides. The alarm wan soon\ngiven, however, and many willing hands\nwere at work in no time, digging out the\nunfortunate miner, led by superintendent\nWilliams and foreman Dermody,\nIt was dlllleiilt to make much headway\nIn the work of rescue owing to the nature\nof the surroundings. Nevertheless, il was\ncontinued without Interruption until 5 or\n0 o'clock Sunday morning when Hall was\ntaken out and tenderly carried to the hospital. It was found that no bones bad\nbeen broken, but he had sustained bruises,\nand one leg was badly crushed,\nFor nearly an entiro day Hall was lu\nhis precarious position, and one whtch\neveryone at tlio mine and throughout ll.c\ncity, wTiere the interest in the outcome was\nIntense, thought to have been fatal, or\naccompanied at best with fatal results.\nDuring all this time also he was conscious\nbut tho draft through the mine workings\nmode lt bitterly cold \"for him.

Once\nan alien has taken out his papers, therefore, be is a citizen of whatever part of\nthe empire he may be in. Of course, if\nhe goes io a new portion of the empire\nhe Ib compelled to obtain a residence,\njust as a citizen from Ontario would ou\ncoming to British Columbia, have to be\na resident of the province for a certain\nperiod before he could vote. In Canada\nthere Is a Canadian naturalization act\ncopied from the British naturalization\nact, which gives exactly the same privilege to citizens whether they are naturalized or native born. Under tho Canadian naturalization act an alien has to\nbe a resident for a period of three years\nbefore he can obtain citizen papers, but\nif the time Is less ln any portion of ihe\nempire it would not act as a bar here.\nAll that would be needed would be the\nnaturalization papers.
