July. 30 \u2014 Orville\nWright ihis evening attained the zenith\nof his hard earned success In a ten\nmile cross country flight in the aeroplane built by himself and his elder\nbrother, Wilbur aud, accompanied by\nLieut. D. J. Foolers, an officer of tlie\nsignal corps, he not only surpassed the\nspeed requirements of his contract with\nibe United Slates government, but accomplished the most difficult and daring flight ever planned for a heavier\nthan air flying machine. Incidentally\nhe broke all speed records over a similar course,\nWright's speed was more than 42\nmiles an hour, He made the ten miles\nIn 14 minutes and 42 seconds, including\nmore than 20 seconds required for the\nturn beyond tlie line at Shutter Hill, the\nsouthern end of the course. He attained a height of 'nearly 500 feet and\nhis average altitude was practically on\nlevel country about 250 feet. President\nTaft arrived upon ihe scene jusi in time\nto see the aeroplane start and participate In the demonstration with which\ntho aviators set out. He sent Col.\nTreat, commanding officer of the artillery at Fort Meyer, to bear his congratulations to tlie victors,\nFollbwing a terrific wind and rain\nstorm early in Ihe afternoon, the atmosphere became clear and quiet. Despite the failure of the army field telegraph lines depended on for communication between ibe two ends of the\ncourse. Arville Wright seised at the best\nweather conditions he had yet had for\nthe speed test. Tbe engine worked perfectly, Lieut. Foulers climbed into tlie\npassenger's seat beside tlie motor, Wilbur took his place at the right of the\nplanes and Orville clambered into the\nseat behind Foulers. He gripped the\nlevers and nodding to ids brother, lei\nloose the cable which released tlie starting weight. The machine then started\ndown the track.\nAs If drawn up by Invisible hands,\nIhe white winged man-bird rose higher\nand higher. Hats and handkerchiefs\nwere waving, automobile horns were\ntooling and some over wrought spectators even wept. Orville brought tin1\nmachine at great speed twice around\nlite field, and then with a short turn\nho swept about almost over the heads\nof the spectators and started straight\nover the centre of the drill Held.\n\"They're off\" shouted n thousand\nvoices as like a giant bird the machine\nswept unswervingly straight to tlie\nsouth, passing over the heavily wooded\ncountry in tiie distance until it beams\na mere speck above Ibe horizon. Those\nwho had glasses saw the aeroplane turn\nfirst to left, then to right above Shutter\nHill. Suddenly the hdprV \u25a0* '--' '\u2022>\nview and as seconds passed a silence\ngrew upon the crowd, a silence that\nspoke of deep concern. Wilbur Wright,\nstanding with levelled glasses beside\nhis sister, strained his gaze in an effort\nto catch a sight of tlie aeroplane when\nit should rise again above the sky tine.\nSeconds seemed minutes and as the\ninterval became seemingly alarming\nbis agitation was evident. Suddenly\nthe speck came into sight again, over\nthe distant hill. A cry swept over the\nwatching crowd. \"There it is.\" everybody said, and the sigh of relief was\nplainly audible. Onward the nnclilne\ncame seemingly swerved from Its course\nby the westerly breeze. Soon the aerial navigators were home again over\nthe drill grounds, flying very low. Orville steered straight across the field\nnnd at a height of 20 feet swung round\nagain to the southward and landed verv\neasily far down tlie field. Thp task was\ndone and fn triumph. Cheer upon\ncheer welcomed the return. There was\na forward rush of tbe crowd which almost eluded the cordon of mounted men\non guard.\nMARITIMMCOAL STRIKE\nNO BAIL ALLOWED FOR ALLEGED\nDYNAMITERS\nMINERS' DEMONSTRATION IS TO\nBE HELD TODAY\nGLACE HAY, July 30\u2014Tomorrow is\nthe day for .the great ['.

Vancouver or some Pacific\nseaboard town.\nWheat has been shipped from Portland to England and ihe western grain\nmen are enterprising enough to see\nthe advantage of shipping via ilie western route thus cutting off etlie iongrailway haul to the Atlantic seaboard. The\nadvantage i,n sacking is that the wheat\ncannot be packed so tightly in Ihe vessels, thus preventing the heating of tiie\ngrain, especially if it should be a little\ndamp. Another reason why sacking\nwould be an advantage is that loose\ngrain In a long ocean voyage might\nshift and endanger tin* vessel, Should\nthis bo established it will he of distinct advantage to the western grain\ngrowing provinces,\nRETURNS M ENGLAND\nHON.

The claims of the lumbermen\nhave been so frequently reported in\n(lie press of this province that the public are well acquainted with the stand\nthat is being taken on such important\nquestions as those of tenure, rentals,\nroyalties and regulations pertaining to\ntimber.\n\"Some matters of routine were also\ndeali with and provision made for the\nappointmenl of a permanent grading\ninspection staff, the function of whicli\nwill be to see lhat the standard grading rules of the association are carried out.

McMORRIS Manager\nPRINCE RUPERT\nAmong the many intricate problems\nwith which the present provincial government has been called to deal, none\npresented greater difficulties than\nthe Prince Rupert townslte. In the\nfirst place the government had to\nestablish Its title to tlie land comprising the townslto, the Dominion\nauthorities having conveyed tlie property to the Grand Trunk Pacific company in total disregard of British1 Columbia's right to It as an abandoned\nIndian reserve. Having convinced the\nGrand Trunk Pacific company of the\nprovince's revet sionary rights to the\nland in question, tlie government next\nhad lo arrange with the company for\n[be laying out of tlie new city and tiie\nplacing of tlie lots on the market. As\na result of the government's efforts\nthe province is receiving one-quarter\nof the proceeds of the sale of lots and\nis bearing pro rata with the company\ntlie cost incidental to tlie opening up\nof tho townslte.\nIn tlie following out of the latter\npolicy at the last session of the legislature, \u00a7200,000 was set apart for making roadways, bujldftig sidewalks, installing sewers, etc., in the proposed\nnew town. Tills money, it was stipulated, was lo be repaid to tlie provincial treasury out of the sale of lots, the\ncompany to contribute $160,000 from\nthe money 11 was to receive from this\nsource, while the remaining $50,000\nwould be a charge against the government's share of the cash received.\nOver $2,000,000 lias already been\nrealised from tlie sale Of lots, of\nwhich the company's share is \u00a71,500,-\n000 and the government's $500,001), so\nthat the amount the government has\nadvanced for Improvements is already\nprovided for, and a large surplus in\naddition, both for tne province and the\ncompany. The money realised by the\nprovince from tills source, tt should be\nremembered, has been secured solely\nand entirely through the efforts of the\nMcBride government. Had that government not contested the title to the\nPrince Rupert townsite granted to the\nGrand Trunk Pacific by the powers\nthat be at Ottawa, not one cent of this\nmoney would have been received by\nBritish Columbia. This is one case in\nwhich even its most rabid opponent\ncannot deny tliat the McBrlde government's policy has worked out to tlie\nadvantage of tho province.\nThere is no question but what the\npublic Improvements installed as a\nresult of the legislature's grant for\nthis purpose had much to do with tlie\ngood prices realised for the Prince Rupert lota which have been already\nsold. One of the gratifying features\nof the sale is the fact rapid development is following it. One result of\nthis is that additional roads, aide-\nwalks and sewers are required, while\nan assured water supply has become\nabsolutely essential. In tbis case again\nthe government has shown that it appreciates the situation by agreeing to\nadvance the money required for\nstreets, sidewalks and sewers on tlie\nsame terms as tlie legislature's grant\nof $200,000 for this purpose and will\nalso undertake the installation of a\nwaterworks system tbat will meet\npresent needs, the place already having outgrown tlie supply provided by\nIhe Grand Trunk Pacific, In the case\nof the waterworks system the cost of\nits installation, instead of being repaid out of the sale of lots, as in tlie\ncase of other public improvements,\nwill lie a first charge upon the city\nwhen incorporated, as it will be one\nof these days? Tlie new corporation\nwill assume the ownership of the undertaking and will alao become responsible for tlie cost.\nThe spending of this additional\nmoney on streets, sewers, etc., and tlie\ninstallation of a waterworks system is\nin keeping with the government's\npolicy of assisting In the development of the Prince Rupert townslte,\nin which the people of the province\nare directly interested, and will, it is\nsafe to say, bring the same excellent\nresults In connection with future\nsales of lots, as did the expenditure\nof .the money voted by the legislature\nlast session In connection with those\nwhich have already taken place and\nthe development which lias followed\nthem.\nEDITORIAL NOTES\nThe improvement felt in the lumber\nindustry will bave its effect on business generally throughout Kootenay.\nMay there be still further improvement,\nSays the Toronto Globe \"Dr. Young,\nthe British Columbia minister of education, in addressing an educational\nconvention at Victoria the other day,\nannounced that tlie government had\ndetermined to establish a teachers'\nsuperannuation fund. If Ontario is not\nnimble she will find herself in the rear\nin this movement.\"\nThe visit of Mr. P, W. Peters, assistant to the second vice president of\nthe Canadian Pacific railway, to this\ncity next week Is one which is likely\nto* prove of great importance, not only\nto Nelson but to the district generally.\nIt Is to be hoped that Mr. Peters, returning so soon after his late visit,\nwill be in a position to satisfactorily\nadjust several matters that have been\nbeen brought to his attention. While\npossibly the Canadian Pacific Railway\ncompany may not fee! that they should\ngrant all that lias been asked of them,\nthe careful and difficult negotiations\ntliat have been carried on by the rep-\nresen tat Ives of the board of trade will,\nIt is -hoped, result in tlie recognition\nby the company of many of Nelson's\nclaims.\nBass Fishing\n(Special to The Dally News.)\nCHRISTINA LAKE, .July B0.-Durlng\nthe past week many buss have been\ncaught In Christina lake.

Baden-Powell as well as its general effect in creating independence and\ninitiative in the minds of members of\nthe corps.\nThe local organization will be\nformed under the direction of Joseph\nllynes, who is connected with the cily\nhealth department. Mr. Hynes Is acquainted with den. Baden-Powell and\nlast year wrote him on the subject of\nboys' brigades and kindred movements,\nthe correspondence leading up to the\ncommission recently received.\nHeadquarters for the Vancouver\ntroop have been secured at tlie old\nMethodist church on Park drive and a\npublic meeting will be held there\nshortly to explain tlie methods and\naims of the organization. Mr. Hynes\nhas already received hearty support\nfrom public-minded citizens, and 1ms\nbeen given a set of colors Tor the\ntroop as well as cheques for about\n15150 toward the purchase of uniforms.\nThe colors will be presented to tlie\ntroop at the public meeting.

While wome\nof the fruits will not be as plentiful\nthis year as in ordinary years on account of the lateness of the season\nand while the ranchers are wisely refraining from allowing their trees to\nbear while too young, thus keeping\ndown tlie yield for large fruits for the\ntime being, the advanced prices being\nrealized this season as compared with\nlast, chielly on account of the more\nable management in ibe disposing of\nthe fruit, and the much better shipping facilities given by the C.P.R. and\nthe Dominion Express company, have\ngiven added faith In the possibilities\nof fruit growing throughout Kootenay.\"\nThose were the words of Fred Adle,\nassistant provincial fruit Inspector,\nwhen asked for his opinion as to the\nfuture of the fruit growing industry\nthroughout Kootenay last evening by\na representative of The Daily News.\nMr. Adie has just completed a tour\nof inspection of the ranches In his\njurisdiction In an official capacity and\nis eulogistic in his praise of the cleanliness of the trees nnd plants on the\nvarious ranches, and says that while\nhe has been in a considerable number of fruit growing countries he\nnever yet saw a district that, generally speaking, came anywhere near\ncomparing in this regard with'Kootenay.\nSpeaking of this season's crops generally he said that the strawberries\nbad been exceptionally good In quality, but that the quantity bad been\nslightly less than usual. The prices\nrealized had, however, greatly exceeded those of any previous year.\nThere was every indication uf a remarkably good pear crop, bui In quantity apples would be slightly below\ntbe average, while the quality would\nbe even better than usual. There\nwould be a fair crop of peaches and\nplums.\n\"The ' amount of clearing done\nthroughout tlu* district since my last\nlour oi ti lew months ago is really remarkable,\" said Mr. Adie. -and while\nthe number of trees planted this year\nhas greatly exceeded that of any previous year I predict that next year\nfully double the quantity will be sei\nout.\n\"There is no possible danger of\nI overproduction,\" he said, \"as only a\nI very small portion of the demand\n1 from Lite prairie provinces for fruit is\nat present being met irom Kootenay\nand the Increase in the demand then1.\nconsequeni of the enormous influx of\nnew settlers, will easily meet the\nmuch heavier shipments lhat will be\nmade from this district as tlie industry develops, through the cultivation\not additional laud uiTT tiie coining Into\nbearing of thousands upon thousands\nof fruit tret's already planted.\"\nHe remarked upon the large influx\nof new settlers To different sections\not ihe Kootenays, and .said thai ihis\nwas most noticed in the Creston, Arrow lake, Kootenay lake and Slocan\nvalley sections, while the country to\nthe soutii of Nelson was not faring at\nall badly in this regard, in fact, the\nwhole of the districts visited by liiui\nshowed signs of development lhat a\nfew years, ago was unthought of.\nMi*.

Williams of Meagher & Co.'s\nstote and Fred llohinson, late of Rex\nMacdonald's law office, liave returned\nto Xelson after a most enjoyable ten\ndays' holiday spent camping out along\nKootenay lake and seeing some of the\nnatural beauty with whicli tlie districts\nvisited abound. Mr. Williams says\nthat he has seen the mountain scenery\nof six countries, including Switzerland,\nPrance and Italy, and nowhere any-\ntiling to equal what he found about tlie\nnorthern and eastern shores of Kootenay lake. The people of Nelson, he\nsaid, did not. appreciate the natural\nwonders of the country jn their Immediate neighborhood, so that It was\nno wonder that outsiders did not,\nMessrs. Williams and llohinson left\nNelson a week ago last .Monday on\nthe Kokanee. going direct to Lardo.\nfrom where they rowed across to Argenta and there camped for the night.\nFrom there they walked back to\nGolden and were rewarded for their\ntrip by a sight of some of the most\nmagnificent mountain scenery to be\nfound anywhere In the world. From\nArgenta they rowed io Fish creek,\nstopping at Salisbury creek for lunch.\nAt Fisli creek they found one of tlie\nfinest beaches that cither had ever\nseen. Going up the trail for some dls*\nlance they had a view of the beautiful\ncanyon there to be found. Of all the\nplaces seen during the trip tlie view\nhere was tlie best.\nFrom Fish creek they moved on to\nMclntyre cape, where they spent, a\nnight and where they enjoyed the exceptional facilities for bathing which\ntlie place affords. From Mclntyre cape\nthey proceeded to Clilte creek, passing\nsome wonderful cliff scenery en route.\nAt Clttte creek they found a waterfall\nof extraordinary heauly. From there\nthey crossed tlie lake to Kaslo, and\nafter calling there went into camp at\nBeauty bay. whicli is two miles below\nand from where they visited Mirror\nlako, the beautifies of which they\nfound fully up to their expectations.\nAfter spending two nights at Beauty\nbay they crossed the lake again to\nDeer creek, where they enjoyed some\nexcellent fishing. On the way home\nlo Nelson they visited Kootenay, Pilot\nand Crawford bays, remaining at the\nlatter two nights on account of the\nheavy swell on the lake. Leaving\nthere, however, -Thursday morning,\nthey arrived in Nelson that evening\nafter having bad what both of them\nA. L. McOULLOOH\nHYDRAULIC ENGINEER\nPROVINCIAL LAND SURVKVOR\nP. O.
