WOT\nNO. mi\nIS THE RUN\nOIFICIAL?\nCity Council is Dubious\nAbout Taking Over\nPlant\n|Sq> Mt hi try Is Not Petfcct\u2014Question\n-eft to a Special Com*\nmillet\n\u25a0 A special meeting ot tlie city council\nI was held last evening on tbe call ot his\n| worship the mayor, to discuss the dealr-\nI ability ot taking over the municipal pow-\n| er and light plant at Bonnlngton Falls,\nfrom the machinery contractors, the\n1 Allls-Chalmers-Bullock, Ltd.\nAid. Rose was the only absentee and\nthere were present H. R. Klrkpatrlck,\ntravelling representative ot the A.C.B.\nCo., J. o. Gullce, the local agent, H. C.\nBullis, the company's hydraulic engineer,\nnow in charge of the plant, W. P. Dickson, the city's electrical engineer, city\nengineer Mcculloch, and W. A. Macdonald, city solicitor. It transpired that\nthere was a difference ot opinion as to\nthe present run ot the plant, the city\nauthorities maintaining that the plant\nwas incomplete and that the trial 30\n\u2022days* test could not commence until the\n.plant was fully completed and running\nsatisfactorily to the city's engineers.\n'The representatives of the machinery\n\u25a0contractors pleaded that while the ma-\n\u2022chinery was not complete in all details it\nwas practically so, that the details wanting were minor ones, and that pending\n\u25a0their completion the city should pay the\nTAnal payment on February 26, the contractors giving bondB to complete the details. Wtth the execeptlon of the governor, wn.ch has not worked at all, and\nwhat Mr. Dickson termed \"some small\nminor details,'' the plant has run satisfactorily for 22 daya.\nAfter a prolonged discussion the council decided to refer the matter to a\n.special commltteo which will meet this\nmorning at 10.30. .\nThere was an Informal discussion before the mayor called the council to\norder, Just a sort ot preliminary sparring\nito ascertain where the contending parities really stood. When the council\nnormally came to order the city clerk\ntread the notice catting the meeting and\nIhis worship called upon the Allla-Chal-\nsnerB-Bullook representatives to address\nthe council.\nMr. Ollllce\u2014\"I have asked for this\nmeeting because I am leaving the em-\nplay of the company and wish to know\n. (the attitude of the council aa to the laat\npayment to be made on Febraury 26.\"\nTo the mayor\u2014\"We consider the 30\ndaya' teat will be up on the 26th instant.\nI think the machinery has run satisfactorily so far, with the exception of the\ngovernor. We expect to get the governor in order before the contract la completed. I think the governor ran up to\nthe capacity of the generator for a time.\nAa to wither details about the governor\nI must refer you to Mr. Bullis who was\nwlti the expert during the test\"\nMr. Ba lis explained that some changes\nwould be necessary with the governor.\nSome new rings wouid have to be put\nIn. The contractors could run the plant\nfor 30 and even 60 days In the shape it\nts now in, but sooner or later the governor would have to be changed. A short\nabut down would be necessary to change\nthe governor. I think In any case two\nmen should be on shift together. 1\nwould not care to run the plant alone\nmyself.\nTo Aid. Hume. Mr. Glllice said the\nplant was up to specification with some\nslight exceptions, 'i tie exceptions could\nbe readily rectified. The chief exception-\nwas the working of the piston.\nThe mayor said he learned from Mr.\n.Pfau, the company s expert, that above a\n.certain point the governor would not\n\u2022work automatically.\nMr. Dickson said he understood the\n\u25a0governor had not run continuously at\ntall. Mr. Pfau bad not been able to get\nithe governor to work. It was a necessary part of the plant, regulating by\niband, as suggested, would not work at all\n:aa a permanent arrangement.\nTo Aids. Irving and Annable, Mr.\n\u25a0.Dlckison said he had known of aome at-\nItempts made by Mr. Pfau to regulate the\ngovernor, but they did not steady the\ngovernor, as anticipated they would.\nAid. aicMorrlB asked tor the specifications regarding the governor, and Aid.\nSelous read the clause ln the contract\ngoverning the taking over of the machinery from the contractors.\nIn reply to the mayor Mr. Ollllce said\nhe thought the city should make the\nfinal payment on the 20th, notwithstanding the fact that some furher changes\nwould have to be made,\nMr. Klrkpatrlck said the detail wanting was a minor matter and payment\n\u2022hould not be withheld on account of It.\nThe plant was performing Its duty, giving light and power. They were not asking payment for the governor, payment\nfor that Item could stand until the governor was adjusted. The 113,000 should\nbe paid on the 26th as tbe city had 15000\non hand tn escrow.\nTo Aid. Hume Mr. Klrppatrlck said he\nhad heard a rumor ln the morning that\nsaid he could not report Anally until he\nhad made a full Investigation. It might\nbe necessary to shut down the plant to\nmake tbe final Investigation. There were\nsome minor matters that must be attended to, but generally the plant was\nrunning satisfactorily, outside of the\nquestion of ths -governor and the minor\nmatters referred to.\nAid. Selous thought the whole matter\nwas Irregular. The time for the test was\nnot up. What might happen on the 26th\nwas a different matter.\nMr, Klrkpatrlck asked lt the present\nrun was considered an official teat by\nthe council.\nAid. Selous\u2014It was a surprise to me\nthat the present run was an official one.\nThe mayor\u2014I have no hesitation In\naaylng that 1 do not consider the run an\nofficial one I should consider that the\nrun should commence when all the machinery is ln proper order.\nMr. Kirkpatrick\u2014Well, we might as\nwell shut down at once If that Is so.\nThe mayor asked If Mr. Kirkpatrick\nspoke as the official representative of\nthe Allls-Chalmers-Bullock Ltd.\nHis worship added that a telegram had\nbeen sent to the Head office at Montreal\natatlng that the plant waa not running\nsatisfactorily ln every detail.\nThe clause ln the contract governing\nthe final payment reads ,as follows:\n\"Subject to the condition that the\nmachinery installed with the other\nequipment shall have been operated for\n30 days before the final payment is\nmade, and that such machinery and\nequipment shall operate to the satisfaction of the purchaser or Its engineer.\"\nAid. Hume thought Mr. Dickson should\nbe Inspecting the test. If the present\ntest waa the official one lt was nearly\nover and the city's electrical engineer\nwas not ln a position to say what the\nsituation was.\nMr. Dickson explained that no attempt\nwas being made to operate the governor.\nHe cou d do nothing were he at the plant.\nMr. Kirkpatrick said the city was entitled to have the governor and to have\ntt in working order. The company was\nquite willing to give satisfactory bonds\nfor the completion of the detail wanting.\nIt was costing the company 1800 to run\nthe plant\nAid. Selous suggested that If the present run was to be regarded as the official run, some arrangement might be\ncome lo by whloh an additional 15000\nshould be retained until the governor\nwas in running order and that the city\nshould pay Its ordinary payroll until the\nptant was completed, the contractors giving security against any damage that\nmight occur through the absence of the\ngovernor; The contractors still to operate the plant. The new piston could be\nplaced In position and the governor made\nto act, according to Mr. Kirkpatrick, ln\nabout three weeks time and the company should not be relieved of their\nresponsibility until tbat time, when presumably the whole plant would be running satisfactorily. If It waa then bo\nrunning and the city's engineers so reported the city could safely take over\nthe plant At present the plant was Incomplete and the contractors were not\nin a position to Insist on the city's accepting lt until lt waa fully completed\nand running satisfactorily.\nThe contractors' representatives then\nwithdrew temporarily and the council\ndiscussed the situation ln caucus.\nAfter a long discussion the council\nagreed to leave the matter ln the hands\nof a committee composed of Aids. Selous,\nIrving and Annable, the mayor being an\nex-offlclo member. This committee will\nmeet tbe representatives of the machinery contractors this morning at 10.30\nand further discuss the matter.\nAt 10.30 the council adjourned.\nDISTRIBUTE\nNEWSEATS\nSaskatchewan Given Ten\nMembers, Alberta\nSeven\nPrtposal Before Special Committee of the\nCommons- Mas of Corstitaencfei\nPresented\nOttawa, Peb. iS\u2014Thls morning the special committee of the house to consider the\nreadjustment of the constituencies of Saskatchewan and Alberta on the basis of\nthe last cen-sua, held a meeting.

I knew\nhe was a foul creature, destroying\nthe mothers and daughters of America; but 1 wanted through legal\nmeans to bring him to trial. 1\nwanted to get him into court to\nbring him to justice, but Providence\ntook charge of It. It was an act of\nProvidence,\"\nThis Is Harry K. Thaw's own account\nof the killing of Stanford White, It\nwas given by him to Dr. Brlttou D.\nEvans, the alienist, last August in the\nTombB. Today Dr. Evans repeated the\nprisoner's words to tne jury which is\ntrying Thaw for his life. District attorney Jerome fought hard last week\nagainst the introduction of this evidence,\nwhich the defence believes is conclusive\nproof that Thaw did not know his act\nwas wrong. But once the physician had\ndeclared that in his opinion Thaw was\ninsane at the time ho made the statements, tho ruies of evidence permitted\nthe introduction of tho prisoner's words,\nin further bulwarking their contention that Thaw whs Insane when he killed Stanford White, the defendant's counsel succeeded today in placing before the\njury the will executed by Thaw on the\nnight of his marriage in April, 1905, and\na codicil to the will, executed at the\nsame time. Again Mr. Jerome fought\nthe evidence, but he significantly withdrew his objections after Dr. Evans testified, as his expert opinion, that Thaw\nwo* Insane at the'time he executed the\nwill. The fact that the district attorney\nseemed disposed to permit the admission of testimony of every character\nprovided it was preceded by an opinion\nby a witness that the man was of unsound mind at the time to which the\ntestimony referred, was taken today as\nfurther Indicating that, at the right moment, and if he deems his case strong\nenough, Mr. Jerome may demand tbe appointment of a commission to pass upon\nThaw's state of mind at present.\nThe will and the codicil, as read to\nthe Jurors today, were offered as cumulative evidence of Thaw's unsound mind\nprior to the shooting of White. In hlB\nwill Thaw provided that his executors\nshould set apart the sum of $50,000 for\nthe investigation of his death in case of\na violent or suspicious end and for the\nprosecution of the persons suspected of\nhaving had a hand in his taking off. In\nthe codicil. Thaw left to a lawyer in\nPittsburg the sum of $7500 to be used to\nobtain legal redress from Stanford White\nand one other person, whose name was\nnot allowed to be read out, for the benefit of four young women who Thaw declared were the victims of \"degrading\nassaults\" In a house furnished and used\nfor orgies by Stanford White and other\ninhuman scoundrels. The names of the\nfour young women were mentioned by\nThaw, but were not made public. Thaw-\nalso bequeathed sums of $2500 each to\nthe Rev. Dr. Charles H. Parkhurst and\nto Anthony Comstock and to the lawyer named in his codicil to be used to\nfurther discover alleged misdeeds by\nStanford White aud secure redress for\nthe women.\nOther physicians will lake the stand,\ndoctors Hammand and Jelllffe, and it Is\nsaid that it will Ik part of their function \\\nas witnesses to detail the improvement\nin Thaw's mental condition during the\nperiod of his confinement In the Tombs\non the theory that the stress which\ncaused the mental explosion was removed after the death of Stanford White. It\nwas also suld tonight that Mrs. Evelyn\nNesbit Thaw may go on the stand tomorrow forenoon to complete her story.\nThe trial today entered its fifth week.\nThe opening of court found attorney\nDolpin Delmas again in his accustomed\nplace at the uead of Thaw's counsel\ntable. During the day there were no\nsurface Indications of the storm which.\nIt Is said, raged among tho counsel for\nthe defence the latter part of last week,\nafter the trial was adjourned because of\nthe death of juror Bolton's wife. It\nwas decided today that the jurors would\nnot be again confined until they retire\nto rench a verdict.\nDr. Evans, who hns been by far the\nmost Important witness for the defence\namong the medical experts, lengtntly recounted his conversations with Thaw in\nthe Tombs. He testified that Thaw declared his lawyers and physicians were\nIn a- conspiracy with tho district attorney lo railroad him to an asylum, and\nto prevent his case from coming to\ntrial. Thaw told the physicians that In\nhis attempts to bring Stanford White to\nJustice, he complained to district attorney Jerome, and the latter told him to\nlet the matter drop and that there was\nnothing to it. He also complained to\nAnthony Comstock and to a detective\nagency. Dr. Evans was corroborated as\nto most of Thaw's statements by Chas.\nO. Wagner, of Birmingham, who first\nfigured as a witness early laat week.\nLate ln the afternoon, district attorney\nJerome cross-examined Dr. Evans brlfly\non the point of his' expressed opinion\nthat Thaw was of unsound mind at the\ntime he executed his will. The prosecutor and witness struck Are at the first\ncontact and there was every indication\nthat when Mr. Jerome undertakes Dr.\nEvan's cross-examination In general,\nthe proceedings will be as lively! and Interesting as any ever held in a local\ncourt room. Dr. Evans met the preliminary attacks boldly aud seemed as ready\nwith his wits as the district attorney.\nThis was i.iustrated when Mr. Jerome,\nIn a tone of aggravation, asked the witness:\n\"Well, what can you say?\"\n\"There are many things I could say,\nhut I am not permitted to say them,\"\nretorted the physician, amid laughter.\nMr. Delmas was on his feet during\nevery part of Mr. Jerome's cross-examination of the witness. He looked sharply to Dr. Evan's interests, but the latter\nappeared well aware ot his privileges.\nMr. Jerome, inprotesting against the admission of the codicil as evidence, referred to \"these scandalous statements.\"\nMr. Delmas objected and had the objection noted as due to the district attorney's misconduct. A wordy conflict ensued, which ended in Mr. Jerome declaring that iu future he would concede\nnothing.\n\"It is your privilege,\" replied Mr. Delmas. \"not to concede anything, not even\ncommon courtesy.\"\n\"I am exercising my privilege,\" the\nprosecuting officer retorted.\nThaw, the jury and everyone else In\nthe court room enjoyed the encounter,\nand most of the jurymen smiled broadly.\nHarry Thaw's remarkable head and his\nunusual heart\u2014the ono mis-shapen ona\nthe other not normal-were ndded to the\nphysical evidence In the trial today when\ncourt reconvened this afternoon.

About 7.30\nan explosion occurred blowing out the\nlights of all the men at work and when\nthe caudles were relighted It was fouud\nthat Mint tn>n had been killed Instantly.\nNone of the otner men were injured.

He was a member of\nihe Nelson Miners' union and Mr. Phillips will go out to the Molly Oibson\nlanding this morning nnd bring the\nbody here for burial.\nDr. Arthur said last night that probably no inquest would be held.\nThis is the first fatality that has occurred nt the Molly Gibson since the\nfatal snow slide on Christmas night In\n1902, wheu several miners were swept\ndown the hill and killed.\nTwenty-one local militiamen, ranging\nin' rank trom Capt. Lome Stewart to\nbugler R. G. Cummlngs, attended at tlie\nNelson armoury last night and were enrolled as members of the special school\nof instruction to be held here during the\nnext month or six weeks, under Instructions from the federal militia department.. Quartermaster sergeant W, J\nWhite, of the Royal Canadian regiment,\nstationed at London, Ont., was on hand\nto organize the class. Sergeant White\nis one of the most efficient instructors\nin the Canadian service; he combines\ntact with a thorough knowledge of drill,\nand promises to be very popular with\nthe Nelson militiamen who hope to qualify for various certificates under hie\ntutoring.\nThe twenty-one members who Joined\nthe class last night arc nil enthusiastic,\nand are all determined to slay with the\nwork unti, the somewhat arduous course\nIs completed. Those who arc seeking\nofficers certificates\u2014subaltern's, captain's, or field officer's\u2014will be compelled to attend Instruction classes from\n7 to 10 p.m. every night of the week\nuntil the school is over, with the single\nexception of Saturday night, when tho\nhours will be from 8 to 10. The noncommissioned officers will have drill and\nlectures from 8 to 10 p.m. every night.\nIn exp'alning the nature of the insti'uc-\ntion to be given, Sergt. White last night\nsaid that the object was not so much\nto make the men efficient tn drill, for\nthey were supposed to be that anyway;\nbut to teach them how to become instructors themselves\u2014how to take a\nsquad of raw recruits and whip them Into shape. He briefly ran over the first,\nsections of squad drill, putting the class\nthrough their paces; and then made rach\nmember take the floor and give a few\nsimple commands In order to accustom\nthem to the use of their voices aud on-\nable thorn to get over the initial nervousness many displayed. Afterwards lie\nexplained the sections of the Infantry\ndrill manual which would form the text,\nbook for the course.\nSergt. White is the Instructor of the\nschool. The commandant is Col. Mc-\nDougall, who was not on hand last\nnight; It is expected, however, that he-\nwill be at the armoury this evening and\nwill take charge.\nThe members enrolled in the school!\nare:\nCaptain Lome Stewart.\nLieutenants V.

Clerri-7\nenceau and M. Briand, but confirmation!\nof the rumors is lacking and the pre1-1\nvailing Impression Is that If M. Clem*\nenceau does not fall from power, a reorganization of the ministry is practically certain. The followers of ex-premier Combes are already lined up against\nany new concessions. Their position is\ndefined as follows:\n\"According to the action of parliament\n' in giving or refusing assent to the con*\ntxact negotiated by M. Brlend, the re>\n-public wilt be bound to Rome tor 19\nyears, or free from it for ever.\"\nThe hostility to the government's proposed Income tax law continues to be ait\nimportant feature of the ministerial\ncrisis.

Addressing the local press a committee\nof the female teaohors, representing\nevery one of the twelve public schools\nin the city, writes:\n\"We, tho lady teachers of tho city\nschools beg space in your valuable paper\nto correct some statements made by Mr.\n-uurray secretary of the board of school\ntrustees. We ask the privilege because\nbo many of the citizens have received a\nfalse Impression, and we wish to give\nthem the facts of the case. Jn regard to\nteachers' salaries Mr. Murray said to\none of your reporters: 'Of course we\nwould like to see some of the male\nteachers receive an increase but what\nare we to do? Many of the lady teachers on the staff receive salaries as high\nas $80 a month. We have them ranging\nfrom $50, $65 and as high as $80, and\none lady teacher In the high school receives over $i00 a month.' Now, according to the teachers' pay roll of February 1, which may be seen by anyone\nat the city hall, out of a list of over\nninety lady teachers, only 15 receive\nmore than $56 a month. Included ln this\nlist are receiving teachers, senior grade\nteachers and second assistants, only one\nof which receives $80 a month. None\nreceive $70 or $75, six receive $65, six\nreceive $60 and three receive $57.50. Of\nthese 15 teachers, the majority have\nbeen on the staff from ten to sixteen\nyears. The remaining lady teachers receive from $40 to $55 a month,, and some\nof tnese also have been on tho staff 15\nyears.\"\nInformation given before the school\ntrustees' convention revealed the fact\nthat in Grand Forks the lowest salary\npaid is $70. Oi Grand Forks , Greenwood, Revelstoke, Rossland and. Nelson,\nNelson pays both the lowest average\nsalary and tne lowest individual salary;\nand Nelson Is well known to he far more\ngenerous In this respect than are the\nwealthy coast cities.\nEven ln Ontario teachers' salaries,\nonce bo low as to be a subject for constant ridicule, are being raised to a more\nrespectable reventio; and the one tlmo\nproud boast of. British Columbia, that\nshe dealt more Uuerally with her public\nInstructors than did the banner province\nof the dominion is rapidly being refuted.\nLaat -weekvthe Toronto boar.d of education voted almost a hundred thousand\ndollars ln addition to the salaries, of tue\nteachers of tho Queen City, two thirds of\nthat amount, or $60,000, going to the\nwomen assistants. The-minimum salary\nnow paid ln Toronto ln $40 a month, the\nsamo as tho minimum In Vancouver,\nwhile the average In Toronto Is higher\nthan (he average In Vancouver. The\nmaximum in both cities Is about the\nsame, $70 a month with exceptions ln\n\u2022pedal cases and for special work,\nBoth of the local evening papers, the\nWorld, and the Province, have taken up\nthe question and are urging the board to\ngrant reasonable Increases to the teachers. The World says;\n\"It is no exaggeration to say that\nwhen the present scale of teachers' salaries was arranged tlie cost of living in\nVancouver was from thirty to forty per\ncent lower than at present. Rent has\npractically doubled In the last four or\nfive years, almost every variety of food\nproduct costs more, and looks likely to\ncost more still, and services of all kinds\nnave risen In sympathy with the general\nrise of rent and commodities. The\nfamily.which could live modestly but\ncomfortably on $G0 or $70 a month In\nthe later nineties must now reckon Its\nexpenditure in Hires figures or forego\nsome of its little luxuries and enjoyments. Few families, however, are\ncaned upon to adopt the latter course,\nfor earning power has risen along with\nother things. The general level of income and expenditure. In fact, nas been\nbodily raised for almost everybody.\nProsperity Is general, and people make\nmore and spend more. That is to say,\nmost people tire In this fortunate position. The school teacher is tbe noteworthy exception. If a man with a growing family, he flndB the Income which\nsufficed a few years ago a stipend upon\nwhich it is now a struggle to make both\nends meet. If a woman, paying for her\nboard and lodging, she discovers that\nalter she has met these charges she has\nmuch less than she used to have for the\nlittle fund which is all that. In the event\nof sickness or accident, stands between\nher and the sac Iftce of her Independence,\n\/arguments as to what other cities pay\nare beside the case, as also are arguments as tu the relative; value of male\nand female teacners. Vancouver adopted\na scale some years ago. The scale may\nhave, probably has, anomalies and Inequalities which require rectification,\nbut this is a matter of the internal\neconomy of the schools. The ratepayers\ncannot judge whether this or Uat In-\nmvldual teacher Is paid too much or too\nlittle. They do know, however, that a\nscale of pay which was adequate before\nthe general rise ln the price of commodities cannot be adequate now; that, ln\nshort, if measured not by money, but by\nwhat money will buy, which Is all that\nmoney Is good for, the salaries of the\nteachers suffered a serious horizontal\nreduction. And, knowing this, the people\nof Vancouver nre not the sort to object to a readjustment.\"\nIn similar strain the Province says:\n'All fair-minded persons, we think, will\napplaud the action of the female teachers In resenting lhe false position in\nwhich the school board and its officials\nhavo endeavored to place them. The impression sought to be made upon the\npublic by statements emenating from officers of the board Is that the female\nteacher Is well paid and such encouragement given her as will make her contented ln hor profession, and will animate here to persevere in the good work\nunder her hand, to grow in grace, so to\nspeak, and reflect that grace upon the\nyouth of the community. Now, we know\nthat thlB is not so, this Is far from being her frame ot mind. She Is discontented, and she Is so because she Is insufficiently paid, nnd is made to realize\nthis moro and more every day by the\nincreased cost of living, which she has to\nmeet with n stationary Balary. She is\nmade to realize it, too, by that unfairness, that discrimination in favor of the\nmale- teacher, which gives him more\nmoney for doing the same work as she\ndoes, and which she must do quite aa\nwell or It wouiu, surely, not be Intrusted\nto her. If there Is anything at which a\nBchool board should aim, after securing\na good and efficient staff, lt Is to make\ntlie members of that staff feel that it has\ntheir Interests at heart, that it desires\nto pay them well for their work and to\ntreat.them with scrupulous fairness. The\nknowledge on the part of the teachers\nthat this is the policy of the board will\nensure the best efforts In the schoolroom. The feeling that the board is Indifferent, that the officials are hostile\nto the rights of the teacher and are not\ndisposed to be fair, will have exactly\nthe opposite effect, and we can hardly\nhe surprised that it should have the\nopposite effect.\"\nCHAMBERLAIN'S COUGH REMEDY A\nFAVORITE\n\"We prefer Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to any other for our obildren,\" snys\nMrs. L.

Ab stated in that ues-\npatch, Theodore M. Davie, the discoverer of the tomb of the parents of the\nEgyptian qu\u00abeu Meie, has discovered tue\ntomb and mummy of queen Mtaie herself.\nHeie was the mother and inspirer ot the\nfamous \"Herotic King\" of Egyptology.\nHer tomb Is a plain, square sepulchre,\ncut out of the rock and adjoins the tomb\nof Rameses IX. Umortunately the tomb\nlay'In the bed of a watercourse and owing to the percolation of water through\nthe rock, such perishable objects as\nwood and the royal mummy Itself, have\nsuitereu severely. Apart from mis, the\ntomb when entered was In the same condition in wliirli lt had been left by the\npriests during the throes of the religious\nrevolution tuat had spent Its force before Moses was born.\nThe tomb of Meie bears witness to the\n'.blind rage of the victorious priesthood\n.or Thebes and the intensity ot their hat-\njed towards the heretic king, whose\nmame they oareiully erased trom every\nArticle iu the tomb on which It had been\ninscribed. The men, however, wuo thus\n\u2022violated the tomb, were no common\nthieves. The jewellery of the queen and\nthe sheets of solid gold which the sepul-\ncure was literally filled were left untouched. Wherever the excavators\nwalked they trod upon fragments of gold\nplate and gold leaf. The coffin Is Intact\nand Is a supeib example of the jeweller's\nwork. The wood of which It was composed is entirely covered with a frame ol\ngold inlaid with lapis, lazuli, cornelian\nand green glass.\nThe mummy itself was wrapped from\nhead to foot lu sheets of gold. The\nwater which for so many ages haa been\ndrainlug through it had reduced It to\nlittle more than a pulp, and it fen to\npieces when examined in the presence of\nseveral Egyptologists on January 26th.\nThere were bracelets on the arms and a\nnecklace of gold beads and ornaments\nof gold inlaid with precious stones\naround the neck, while the head waa\n.still encircled by an object, priceless and\n\u25a0unique, the imperial crown of the queens\nof ancient Egypt. It Is simple and exquisitely fashioned and represents the\nroyal vulture holding a signet ring In\n.either talon, while its wings surround\nits head and ure fastened at the tips\nbehind by a pin. The whole Is solid\ngold withourt ornament. It was difficult\nl to avoid a feeling of awe while handling\n. this Bymboi of ancient sovereignty, thus\nrisen up from the depths of a vanished\nworld.\nRAVAGES THE INDIANS\nCONSUMPTION IS KILLING HUN-\nDRQDS OP RED MEN\nUN3ANITART HABITS CAUSE OP ITS\nPREVALENCE]\nEdmonton, Feb. 18\u2014Trappers returning\nfrom the basin of the Mackenzie river\nstate that the Indians ln the liar north are\nrapidly dying off, chiefly owing to the prevalence of consumption. At Port Simpson\none of the most Important Indian posts In\nnorthern British Columbia, the Indian\npopulation In 18ff? was over 800, while today lb Is loss than 200. The prevalence of\nconsumption is due to the fact that trie\nIndians have contracted the white man's\nhabits In an exng^orated form. They\nbuild small houses and during the winter\nkoop them at a temperature that would\nkill a while man.\nE. Stewart of the Canadian forestry\ndepnj-tment, is one of those who have\nbrought to civilization these alarming reports and he is of the opinion that the\ngovernment should at once look into the\nmatter. At Fort Providence, 660 miles\nnorth of Edmonton he saw milk ln wheat\non July IB, and learned afterwards that\nIt was harvested on July 28. He Also saw\ntomatoes, peas, beans and potatoes growing tliore and predicts a wonderful future\nfor this now practically barren country\nwhen it is -surveyed and settlers rush ln.\nGOING TO MONTREAL\nNew York, Feb. 18\u2014With the new $6,000,-\n000 issue at 6 per cent, the Delaware and\nHudson company has decided to proceed\nwith the construction of its line to Montreal. Ati present tho Delaware and Hudson extends only as far north as Rouse's\nPoint -and goes Into Montreal over the\nGrand Trunk. Several years ago It purchased tho Quebec Southern which has a\nline part way to Montreal and it was then\ngenerally supposed that the D. and H.\nintended to go Into both Quebec and Montreal, but the construction work has been\nlong delayed. A few months ago a number\nof the influential stockholders started a\nmovement to force the management to\nmake what they considered much needed\nchanges ln policy. One of the first results\nwus an Increase In tho dividends. The\nprotesting shareholders also objected to\ntho slowness with which the Canadian extensions were being prosecuted and new\nloan was the result of their final efforts.\nThe loan was made for the Quebec, Mon-\ntroil and Southern railway, a subsidiary\nof the D. and H.. The first piece of construction will bo between' Rouse's **olnt\nand St Constant, a town near Montreal.\nTho work will bo carried out with all possible despatch.\nSOLDIER'S DARING EXPLOIT\nCardiff, WaleB, Feb. 18\u2014Private Morgan\nof the Royal Welsh Fuslllters, is being\ncourt martlalled here today for a remarkably daring exploit Morgan, wbose\nparents reside in Startford, while on furlough recently, conceived the Idea of masquerading In an officer's uniform. He appeared* sometimes In full uniform and\nsometimes In mufti. He reprimanded several private soldiers on furlough for appearing in slovenly uniform and threatened to report them to the commanding officer. Even bluejackets did not escape his\nattention. One able-seaman was actually\nescorted to the railway sta.lon by Morgan\nand sent back with his kit to rejoin the\nChannel fleet. Morgan's crowning joke\nwas at tho expense of ths local ttroru ting\nsergeant and drld Instructor, whom he visited in the volunteer armory. Smartly\ndressed In civiltlan c.othes he adopt.d an\nImperious air and accused both officers\nof laxity In not notifying men improperly\ndressed on furlough. He had 16 private\nsoldiers arrested for net saluting him on\ntho street, and ordered a second lieutenant\nto report hlrnseif as under arrest for appearing ln public without a oano.\nfiH DAIH HiWB.

Antedating by thousands of years the famous\n\"\u25a0Lam-lng Bku'l\" of Kansas, whioh was es-\ntimated by eclentists to be at least l&o.two\nyears old, the \"Gilder's Nebraska skull'\nhas startled the scientific men of the\ncountry nnd they nre flocking to the home\nof Robert Gilder of Omaha, to see the\nskull and several bones of this mnn who\nlived before the glacial period covered\n' North America with a vast shot of Ice.\nProf. Henry Fairfield Osborn of Columbia university, nnd vice-president of the\nAmerican museum of natural history was\nat a theatre party In New York laat week.\nA ' photograph was. handed to him by a\nnewspaper man, with the request that he\npass nn opinion upon it.\nThe first train leaving New Vork the\nnext morning carried OBborn- en route to\nInvestigate want he pronounced the lowest\ntypo of man ever discovered In America.\nAnd with the skull of the man of long ago\nin his hands Prof. Osborn stood aghast\nat tho thought of the tremendous stride\ntoward settling the question of the origin\nof man which this means. -\n\"It Ir without doubt the lowest type of\nprimitive man ever found on this continent,\" said he. And when a scientific man\nwith the reputation borne by Prof. Osborn make.** a statement as firm as this\none, It means something. The Nebraska\nskull shows an exceedingly small brain\nwith corresponding possibilities of the power of a, man and tlie lowest type of Intellectuality known. The Nebraska skull Is\nt-hat of n primitive thinking man.\nWhen asked: \"How docs this skull compare with the Lansing skull, estimated to\nbe 100,000 years old?\" Prof. Osborn answered: \"This skull antedates the Lansing\n, skull by probably thousands of years.\"\nOsborn was so delighted with the skull\nthat he spent; the entire day making drawings ami estimates. Although lie had travelled for two days and was very tired,\nhe was so Interested that he failed to take\ntime to take luncheon.\nProf. Henry Baldwin Ward, professor\nof soology, Nebraska university, says: \"i\nregard this skull as belonging to a class\nof aborlglnies of whom we know nothing.\nThey were very primitive.\"\nDr. Edwin H. Barbour, state geologist,\nsays: \"It Is perfectly wonderful that any\nrace of human beings could have such a\nsmall amount of Intelligence.\"\nDr. Barber, professor of operative dentistry in Crelghton university, says: \"The\njaw indicates tremendous crushing power.\nThe teeth have been worn down through\ntho process of grinding roots, nuts and\nraw meatH. The lower protruded beyond\nthe upper and there la on abnormal development of both of them.\"\nAs compared with the normal skull tbe\nNebraska skull shows receding; chin and\nforehead, abnormally large cheek bones,\nand a brain pan ridiculously small. The\ndome of the head te only one inch above\nthe top Qt the eye sockets. But the man\nwas a giant, nevertheless. From other\nbones found in the same mound the man\nwho owned the skull must have been\nnearly seven feet high, despite his emrol\nhead, His frame shows a muscular man\nwith tho strength of two ordinary men\nof today,\nJUDGE FORIN SUSTAINED.\nfull Court Upholds Finding ln Case ot\nAdams vs. Busk.\nThe full court at Victoria haa dismissed the plaintiff's appeal wltb costs in\nAdams vs. Husk.
