Lynch at last night's\ncity council. He said that the raising\nof the buildings there was the only\nimmediate problem, and he expected\nthat most of the owners would be ready\nto do this as the raising of the street\ngrade was to do the city so much good.\nHe thought they might go ahead and\nraise the grade as the city engineer\ncould use this fill very satisfactorily, and\nfurther, the raising of the grade would\ngreatly reduce the need for rock cutting\non Eighth street. He thought at least\n13000 would be saved the city by the\nwork generally, instead of its being an\nextra expense, and argued that the\npermission of the Lieutanent-Govemor\nshould be at once applied for to alter\nthe grade.\nAid. Barrow thought it} might be\nadvisable to wait a few days and see\nabout getting waivers of claims for\ndamages from trie property owners who\nmight be unwilling to raise their buildings\nhere.\nAid. Hilditch and Aid. Mobley both\nagreed with Aid. Barrow.\nAid. Lynch said that the very most\nthat any owner could claim here would\nbe the cost of raising his building, as\nthe advantages to the district of the\nraised grade were obvious.\nAid. Mobley agreed that in point of\n\ufffd\ufffdQuity the position was clearly all right,\nbut thought the legal position should be\nmade clear too. It would be advisable\nto have in writing either waivers of\nclaims of damages from the owners\nhere or exact statements in black and\n\"hite of the amounts of claim made by\nthose refusing to give waivers.\nThe Mayor said it could certainly\nbe well worth the city's while to pay\nthe price for this work anyway, and\njw a brief discussion regarding the\nbest manner of setting about the business it was decided on the motion of\nAid. Mobley to leave the matter in the\n\"ands of the Streets, Works and Property\ncommittee with power to act as they\nsee fit.\nRESERVED FOR RAIL TRACKS\nThe Big Hollow of Morse Creek at\nSecond Avenue\nA glance at the index map of the\ntownsite i\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd the office of the city en-\ngmeer 8hows that th(J b- ^^\ncon?, f the end of S- H- Watson's\n\ufffd\ufffdZTy menti<\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdd at last night's\nDribyAld-Mobley is in the G.T.P.\nof tht aCCOrding t0 the colOT Kheme\n01 tne map.\nn,e!tqI.iry,0f the city *\"#*\ufffd\ufffd*'* fcpait-\nthrjnTltS.in the   substantiate of\nexplanation of   Aid.

By midnight\nit threatened to wipe out the entire\nbusiness section. The whole of the fire\nbrigade was on hand promptly and in\naddition the military and all the men\nat the artillery garrison were called out.\nBy midnight every business man\nwithin two blocks was strenuously\nengaged in moving his office furniture,\nevery conceivable vehicle being pressed\ninto the service, many of them boldly\ncommandeered.\nHow the Times building escaped,\nseeing that the burning department\nstore surrounded it, is remarkable.\nThat famous coast hostelry The Driad\nwas scorched badly. Its guests tumbled\nout into the streets in their night clothes\nas soon as the fire started. All their\npersonal and  other effects were  piled\nalong the street, a detachment of the\nmilitary being assigned to guard them\nfrom pilferers.\nSeveral spectators were shocked by\nlive wires. At midnight all the power\nwas shut off, but the glare of the conflagration lit up the whole city. It\nis estimated that twenty thousand\npeople watched the efforts of the fire\nfighters. The wind was so high that\nglowing embers were carried over five\nblocks. Amateur bucket brigades were\non the alert, however, and quenched\nthe incipient blazes started by these\nembers.\nFire Chief Reeves was badly hurt\nand also four firemen received injuries.\nPRINTING ON\nCITY BY-LAWS\nREGARDING ERECTION OF NEW\nBUILDINGS\nNeed for These By-lawa Being Printed\nIa Considered Urgent Though Coat\nof Work la Regarded aa an Obstacle\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdMatter Diacuased in Council.\nIS BELLE ELMORE DEAD?\nBaais of the Appeal Made by Dr. Crip-\npen'a  Attorneys  Against  Death\n(Special to the Optimist)\nLondon, Oct. 28.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe attorneys for\nDr. Crippen today applied to the court\nof criminal appeal for a new trial, alleging that the crown had failed to establish the fact that Belle Elmore was\ndead.\nMUe.

Tne damage is still to held to\nbe well over the million dollar mark.\nAll the papers were lost in the burning\nof the fire underwriters' offices, and it\nwill therefore be some time before the\nclaims can be adjusted.\nThe Times office, although all the\nsurrounding buildings were burned down,\nwas only damaged by water. It is\nhoped that the plant will again be\nrunning in the course of next week.\nThe Driard hotel losses will be in the\nneighborhood of thirty thousand dollars.\nCITY   LAUNCH   STORM   STAYED\nOver at Porcher Island on Lighting\nBusiness\nMr. Burns, of the city engineer's department, went over this week to\nPorcher island with the city launch to\nsee how the work is getting on in connection with the supply of poles for the\nelectric lighting plant.\nThe stormy weather has probably\nhindered his return, as the wind is\nagainst the launch on the homeward\njourney.

It was driven by\nMessrs. Allan ti. Hawley and August\nPost, both society men of New York.\nThe remainder of the ten balloons\nwhich started in this great race from St.\nLouis on the 17th had been accounted\nfor by the 22nd. Nothing having been\nheard of the America since her ascension\nthere were fears that it had been lost\nand an expedition was sent out by the\nAmerican Aero club to search for it.\nQuite a number of the contestants\nlanded in Canada, and one of them, the\nHelvetia, driven by Colonel Theodore\nSchaeek--.' which; landed at Vllle Marie,\nQuebee\ufffd\ufffd on the 20th, was believed to\nbtj the winner, this being 1,100 miles\nirtheSst of St. Louis.   The Germania,\ndriven by Captain von Abercron and\nAugust Blankertz, landed at La Tuque,\nQuebec.\nThese balloonists met a hurricane after\nthey left St. Louis, losing sight of all\ntheir companion balloons. The gale\ncarried them along at the rate of sixty\nmiles an hour for a day and night.\nBattered until they could hardly endure\nit, they were in a pitiful condition\nwhen they struck the line of the National\nTranscontinental in Northern Quebec.\nThey followed the railroad until Wednesday evening. Then seeing they were\ntravelling away from human habitations,\nthey descended. It was a bitter fight\nthrough the bush to the railway track.\nA construction train took them to La\nTuque, where they recuperated. Upon\narrival at Montreal these gentlemen\nalso felt pretty confident of having won\nthe prize.\nThe balloon Dusseldorf II, a German\nentry in the international race for the\nGordon Bennett cup, came to earth near\nKiskisink, Quebec, which is 120 miles\nnorth of Quebec city and 1060 miles\nfrom St. Louis. Thc Germania, by\nlanding at Coccoo Cache, Quebec, 1200\nmiles from St. Louis, was in the opinion\nof most aeronauts the certain winner.\nIt will probably prove to be the second\nin the race.\nThe French aeronaut Alfred Le Blanc,\nwho finished second in the race for the\nBennett cup in 1907, was this year the\npilot of the Isle de France. He descended near Pogomasing, Ont., and\nwas the fourth of the contestants to\nalight. At Pogamasing he was within 148\nmiles of the American record of 873\nmiles set by John Wise in 1895 and\nwithin 468 miles of the world'B record\nof 1,193 miles set in 1900 by Comte\nHenri de la Vauix.\nAt last night's city council meeting\nAid. Pattullo referred to the proposal\nthat the Building By-laws should be\nprinted for the convenience of architects\nand contractors who have to refer to\nthese. He said that he doubted if the\nfunds at the disposal of the Finance\ncommittee warranted the outlay for\nprinting, and suggested that the matter\nbe shelved till next spring.\nAid. Hilditch spoke on the subject\nstating the difficulty before architects\nand builders who have not enough\nopportuntiy for consulting these by-laws\nwhen planning on building new houses,\netc.\nAid. Lynch supported Aid. Hilditch,\nsuggesting that printers be approached\nto see how economically this bit of work\ncould be done. He believed that ad->-\nvertiseraunts might be printed with\nthe by-law matter thus making the\nprinting more profitable. He had seen\nsuch a method adopted before. The\nadvertisements were chiefly for building\nmaterial.\nThe Mayor felt with Aid. Pattullo\nthat the building business was not\nlikely to be so brisk during the winter,\nand in view of the fact that the cost\nof printing the by-laws would be a tax\non general fund thought it advisable\nto wait till spring.\nAid. Pattullo remarked that if the\nneed for this printing were really so\nurgent it was up to the Finance committee to try and have it done but owing\nto the present heavy strain on the\ngeneral fund, he thought it still advisable\nto wait.\nAid. Lynch said that it was usually\ntaken for granted that architects were\nversed in the terms of the by-laws -\nregarding building, but this was not\nalways so. He said that there was a big\ndemand for houses in the city already\nand owing to the large numbers of\nworkmen they would have here this\nwinter many more houses would be\nwanted. These small houses were just\nthe class of houses liable to be put\nup with errors against the by-law\nterms, and therefore the need for the\nprinting of the by-laws was urgent.\nAid. Pattullo remarking that the\npower of Aid. Lynch's arguments was\npersuasive, said he felt now that it was\nadvisable that the Finance committee\nshould consider this printing of the\nby-laws more closely.\nAid. Barrow spoke in favor of this,\nsuggesting that the job might be undertaken as a private enterprise, and Aid.\nHilditch supported this view.\n' -Two Steamers Due Tonight\nThe Camosun, from Vancouver with\nmail, is due here about nine this evening.\nThe City of Seattle, on the way north, is\nexpected here at about the same hour.\nThe Humboldt is due from the north\ntomorrow morning.\nDifficulties are meant to rouse, not\ndiscourage.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdW.

This letter has attracted the attention of the press of the East.\nIt is quoted here in part:\n\"I can hardly bear to write calmly of the stupidity, as I see it, of the action\nof the Government of British Columbia in refusing the application of the trans-\n- continental railways to be allowed to bring to Canada through that colony, the\nlaborers from East India so much needed in hurrying forward the construction\nof those great arteries of commerce between the East and West. Why should\nthose great public works be compelled to put up with the limited supply of labor\nwhich they can obtain from the small-sized Italians at a high price, when our\ngigantic, brawny, fellow-subjects from Northern India are willing to lend us their\naid in turning our rocky and thickly timbered back country into a land of plenty\nin half the time it will take with the present dearth of labor? This generation of\nCanadians will have passed away before the second and third transcontinental\nlines will have been able to construct their projected double-tracks through from\nocean to ocean. What wickedness to thus prolong the condition of arid waste\nin which so great a portion of North America has heretofore existed, and to sacrifice\nthe valuable lives of so many hundreds of pushing Canadian business men, who\nwill be cut off almost by wholesale for want of double tracks, and of wide steel\nbridges, and through scarcity of nearby villages and of demical men to render\n'first aid.'\n\"How is it possible, with the present limited supply of labor, to build the many\nbranches those transcontinental will need, and at the same time construct a fourth\none through that wonderful Peace River country, and push forward the two great\nHudson Bay lines, even with a single track, not to mention the imminent new\nWelland Canal, and the already ordered deepening of the St. Lawrence river?\n\"Our rhildren and the children of those emigrants who have settled down in\nCanada will never handle a pick or a shovel in the construction of these great\nbeneficial works, even if they are never built. They are at school, getting an education to fit them for becoming time-keepers, engineers, editors, draftsmen, school\nteachers, reporters, telegraph operators, electricians, railroad officers, vessel owners,\ncontractors, clergymen, missionaires, manufacturers, and millionaires. It is perfect\nnonsense to expect that they are going to engage in manual labor or any sort except\nin an educational way. We must continue to import the laborers, and how more\nconveniently than from the British dominions in Asia, across the Pacific Ocean\nto Victoria, Vancouver, or Prince Rupert.\"\nooooo\nThe Toronto Globe replies to the letter comparing the danger of Asiatic invasion\nwith the race problem of the negro in the United States:\n\"In this one can almost hear again the arguments that led to the introduction\nof the African negro into the Virginia plantations. It was hard work growing\ntobacco with labor so scarce. To open up the back country would be a slow process.\nThe negro was brought in, and it is not unlikely that there was promise to re-export\nhim 'after serving us for five or six years.' Today the greatest race problem that\nhas ever confronted mankind is before the prople of the United States as a result\nof their haste in nation-building. It will perhaps take another century to determine\nwhether or not the Southern States are ultimately to become a black man's country,\nbut already the negro question has cost a great war and the shedding of much, blood\nand many tears.\n\"It may be said that the yellow man and the brown man on the Pacific slope\nwill never multiply as the nergo has done in the South, and that no peril to the\nprinciple of a white man's Canada is involved in admitting several thousand Oriental\nlaborers, alien in speach, customs, and ideals. How can we be sure of that? The\nJap and the Chinamen and the Punjaubee are not fools. They know the land of\npromise when they see it just as quickly as the Russian Jew. The Chinese quarters\nof Victoria and Vancouver are swarmimg with almon-eyed children. Why should\nnot a fresh invasion, even supposedly a temporary one, give ' us like permanent\nOriental settlements in Calgary and Edmonton and Winnipeg, and the great cities\nof the East?   There is only one way of safety.    Keep the door shut.\n\"Canada is not an old man in a hurry who must make haste because the long\nnight cometh. The nation is but in its opening manhood. There are centuries of\nprogress before it. Far better will it be to build slowly and to build well, even\nif we of this generation can but lay the foundation, than in a frenzy of unnecessary\nhaste introduce men and women from Asia who may be as gerat a menace to the\nAnglo-Saxon on the Pacific as the negro is in the South. The Globe finds no wickedness but much to commend in the action of those in authority who labor to maintain\nbarriers against the peopling of the Pacific coast from the Orient.\"\nSECTION ONE GRADING\nTenders to Be Called for Rest of Thia\nWork\nThe report presented by the Streets\ncommittee at last night's city council\nmeeting embodied a number of recommendations, the principal one being that\ntenders be called fcr the remainder of\nthe work in Section One. This was\nadopted.\nThe report further recommended that\ntenders be called for the proposed improvements on Eighth avenue from\nMcBride street to the intersection of\nHays Cove Circle with Eighth avenue;\nand that the necessary advertising be\ndone in connection with various proposed\nplankways.\nW. G. Humble's petition for leave to\nconstruct a plankway to his lots on\nSixth avenue was granted subject to the\napproval of the city engineer.\nIn connection with the petition for a\nsidewalk on Alfred street it was recommended that the plank in the vicinity\nof Alfred street be sold to the petitioners\nat $10 per thousand so that the assessment in payment of construction be\nfor one year only and that the necessary\nadvertising be done.\nCondensed Advertisements.\nARE YOU INNEEDOFHELP?

PATRICK M. MAHER\nPub. Sept. 16. B. L. Tingley- Agent\ni MINING NOTES\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\"\"-at\n(THE SKEENA\nTwo of the Harris brothers were in\ntown from their claims recently located\non Nine Mile mountain, at the head of j\nTwo Mile creek, and brought some fine\nsamples of ore from the property, says\nthe Omineca Herald. Three veins have\nbeen uncovered on the surface and,\naltogether, about five hundred feet of\nstripping has been done. Every vein\nshows good ore. The showings vary in\nwidth from eighteen inches to five feet\nand in some places the ore is solid\ngalena.\nThere are six claims in the one group,\nreaching from the lake at the head of\nTwo Mile, up the hill to the ridge\nbetween it and Four Mile creek.\nSeveral mining men have visited\nthe claims recently and all unite in a\nfavorable opinion as to the worth of\nthe proposition. The veins cut directly\nacross the formation and are nearly\nstraight up and down. Assays from\nsurface ore yielded 140 ounces in silver,\n60 per cent lead and a small percentage\nin copper. Not all of the ore is of this\ngrade and much of it would require\nconcentrating. One vein shows a shoot\nof solid galena nearly two feet wide.\nIt is the intention to continue working\nall winter.\nFROM AMONG\nRIVER CAMPS\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\"\"\"\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd~\"-\ufffd\ufffd-~\ufffd\ufffd-~4S\nWork on the Lead King\nF. A. Brown, superintendent of the\nLead King on Nine Mile, reports that\neverything is in first class shape for a\nlong winter's work. Provisions, tools\nand powder enough to last five or six\nmen all winter have been laid down at\nthe cabins. The tunnel is going ahead\nat a good rate, being driven on ore.\nBrown stopped at the Harris brothers'\nclaims on his way down the mountain\nand says he considered the showing a\nwinner. They have done a remarkably\nlarge amount of work in the last month\nand have the veins stripped for several\nhundred feet, showing ore all the way.\nDoing Surface Stripping\nSurface stripping and trenching is\ngoing ahead under the direction of Wm.\nDalton, foreman, on the galena vein\non the east side of Four Mile hill. Much\ngood ore has already been uncovered.\nSurface water flowing into the cut from\nthe deep over-burden has necessitated\ndigging a long drain which will not be\ncompleted for a few days.\nSupplies for Nine Mile\nSupplies are being packed from Hazelton to Nine Mile for the Silver Cup and\nLead King mines. About ten tons will\nbe needed for the Cup and all but about\ntwo tons has been sent and this is to be\nhurried as a heavy fall of snow may\ncome at any time on the upper end of\nthe trail.\nFrank Brown is hustling to get the\nsupplies for the .Lead King away.\nAbout eight tons will last the Lead King\nminers until spring.\nSteamer Hazelton Gives Dance\nCaptain Gardener and officers of the\nsteamer Hazelton last week entertained\nthe townspeople at the Omineca hotel,\ngiving a dance and supper that was in\nevery way worthy to be classed as out\nof the ordinary in this part of the\ncountry. The large dining room was\ncleared for the dancers and by a lucky\nchance C. B. Wark, the Prince Rupert\njeweler, and a commercial traveler,\nhappened to be in town and furnished\nmusic exceptionally good. A large\nattendance filled the big room and a\nnoticeable feature was the number of\nnew faces, especially among the ladies.\nAn elaborate supper was served about\nmidnight and following that dancing\nwas resumed until three o'clock in the\nmorning.\nHazelton Eagles Gathering\nThe lodge of Eagles, now in process\nof being formed at Hazelton, is quite\nlikely to build their own building, to be\nused for social gatherings as well as\nlodge purposes. Dr. Slocum, organizer\nfor the order, has made informal arrangements for a site and has discussed\nplans with a number of leading spirits.\nNothing definite can be determined,\naccording to the doctor, until after the\nlodge is instituted and there is a full\ndiscussion of the matter among the\nmembers. The site proposed is on the\nCunninhgam property, back of the store.\nThe building would most likely be two\nstories high, the ground floor to be\nrented for business purposes.\nGet Budweiser Beer for Thanksgiving\nDinner at Clarke Bros. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd4t\nARE SEEKING CHARTER\nRailway to Tap Mineral Region  in\nWestern Yukon\nOttawa, Oct. 24.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdApplication will be\nmade to parliament next session by the\nBritish Columbia & White River Railway company for incorporation and to\nconstruct a line of railway from Bear\nCreek towards tha Alaska river, thence\nto Lake Klaune and to White river.\nClarke Bros, for Beers and Liquors.\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd4t\nExplains Bouraasa'a Position\nIf it is true that \"happy is the country\nwhose annals are not glorious,\" Canada\nmust be in the zenith of happiness,\nfor the dearth of domestic news of even\ncommon interest is extraordinary. Every\none seems to be too busy to make news\nworth talking about. There is not even\na half-way exciting political yarn afloat.\nThe result is that Mr. Bourassa has been\nmuch in the limelight. If there were\nreal news going, he would not have received anything like the advertising he\nhas been getting.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdVictoria Times.\nGo to Stalker & Wells for Groceries.\nFaith of a Windsor Man\nA Windsor man's faith in human\nnature, particularly that part of it\nrepresented by the opposite sex, received a rude jolt last week. He was\non his way to Kansas City to be married, accompanied by the bride-to-be,\nand stopped off at Chicago between\ntrains. He went out to get shaved,\nand at the bride's expectant suggestion, left his money, $1700, with her\nuntil he returned. When he returned\nmoney and bride were both missing.\nThe only consolation left him is the\nworld's record for the most expensive\nshave.\nLAND PURCHASE NOTIC^\nSkeena Land District\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdDktri\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd. \ufffd\ufffd\nTjk. notiee that Wmi^R*^M\nWash., occupstion manacer {m^TaT. \" Seattle.\nP-gU. to Purchased'K^gJ\n(j0] ...   .\nPi-md\nHUl, _\np\ufffd\ufffdb.oSV        WK,^|\nWash    U. 8.

This shipment\nconsists of twenty-nine head of buffalo\nand was sent to Wainwright, Alta., which\nis near where the Canadian national\npark is located.\nThe rounding-up of the buffalo was\na hard and dangerous task, as several\nof the outlaw bulls proved very irritable and gave several men narrow escapes\nfrom death. James Lacazar narrowly\nescaped a horrible death, when one of\nthe bulls charged his horse and gored\nit before Lacazar could turn to avoid\nthe rush. Lacazar was knocked from\nhis horse and the bull rushed at him.\nThree times he managed to dodge\nthe rush of the bull and finally reached\na tree, which he ascended after avoiding\na rush that sent the bull some distance\npast him.\nThe animals were brought into Ravalli, where they were loaded on Northern\nPacific cars and will go first to Kallispel,\nand then on to the Great Northern\ntracks to their destination. They were\nput in frame wagons about fifteen feet\nlong, constructed of heavy timber. The\nwagons did not allow the buffalo much\nplay and proved a successful method\nof transporting them. Several buffalo\nbecame so hard to control that it was\ndecided to leave them on the reservation,\nwhere they will be slaughtered.\nThe herd consisted mainly of cows and\ncalves.\nTO LICK THE EDITOR\nLong Lost Brother Had Lots of Fun\nin Attempt\nAn editor can usually take a joke\nas well as anybody, but there are times\nduring the rush of business when he\nis apt to miss the point of the joke.\nSuch an instance happened out in\nVancouver a number of years ago, which\nhappened seriously for the joker, says\nthe Saturday Mail. The joker in\nquestion happened to be the editor's\nown brother, whom he hadn't seen for\nten years. He came to surprise his\nbrother and to pay him a visit, and,\nbeing more or less given to practical\njoking, he determined to visit his brother\nin the guise of the \"feller that wants to\nlick the editor.\"\nHe was a big strapping man, well\nfitted to enact such a part, and when\nhe forced his way into the editor's\nprivate office he had his hat pulled\ndown over his eyes and a cigar elevated\nat an angle of forty-five degrees, giving\nhim an appearance of terrible ferocity.\n\"Is this the editor?\" he asked as he\nfaced his brother.\n\"It is.  What can I do for you?\"\n\"Nothing,\" replied the fierce-looking\nman. \"It's me what wants to do for\nyou. Are you prepared to take a good\nlicking?\"\n\"Delighted, I'm sure,\" replied the\neditor, and with this he picked up a\nheavy picture block and slammed it\ninto the visitor's face, knocking him\nunder the table. The foreman in the\ncomposing room had a roller in his\nhand at the time and hearing a strange\nnoise in the office came running in just\nin time to stand on the strange man's\nchest, give him a kick on the jaw and\nrun the roller over his face.\nWhen the man came to his senses\nhe explained his little joke, disclosing\nhis identity. It took some time to\nget the ink off his face and, barring\na piece of his ear. that was missing\nwhere the stereo glanced\" ftff his head,\nhe was soon all right and in good fettle\nfor the drank which (no doubt) followed.\nLAND PURCHASE NOTICE\nSkeens Land District\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdDistrict'of Coaat\nTake notice that Joseph H.

Both are only just over\nsixteen. The bigger boy has been exerting a bad influence generally recently\nover several groups of boys in Prince\nRupert, and has been under detention\nfor taking a gun before.\nThe little chap was quite frank and\nintelligent in his answers to the Judge's\nquestions yesterday. He said he had\nbeen living by himself in a cabin while\nhis father was away up country staking\nland. He used to write to his father\nwhen he needed money and gave his\nfather's address so that he might be\ncommunicated with. Evidently the\nlack of proper home life had had an\nill effect on the lad, and the Chief of\nPolice thinks that taken in hand properly\nnow he will become a straight enough\nman yet.\nThe bigger fellow was far less frank\nand agreeable before the Judge. He\ndid not seem to realize the gravity of\nhis position and sniggered at the idea\nof being made a manlier fellow.\nJudge Young whose treatment of\nboth boys was a justly calculated combination of firmness and consideration\nadministered a stern rebuke to the\nlad for laughing, but said that until\nit was proved that he was actually\nguilty he would refrain from any further\nreprimand. The lad is in a rather\nreckless mood evidently without dis-\npylaing many outward signs of it.\nHe said his father had forbidden him\nthe house once, and that had made him\nstay away for good.\nThis one sign of decency in the boy's\ncurt replies to the questioning was his\nstatement that his mother had been\nkind to him. Otherwise, he was hard,\nand silently defiant.\nAs reported briefly in yesterday's issue\nJudge Young has adjourned the case\nwhile the boys' parents are being communicated with.\nTHE BIG FILL\nOn Second Avenue at S. H. Watson's\nContract End\nAid. Mobley asked at last night's\ncouncil meeting why the big dump at\nthe end of S. H. Watson's grading\ncontract could not be filled now. He\nunderstood that S. H.  Watson would\nhave about 10,000 yards of material\nin excess of his dumping space on the\ncontract and wondered why the big\ndump should be kept open still.\nAid. Lynch said this was a matter for\nthe city engineer to explain, but he\nbelieved that the matter depended on\nthe intention of the G. T. P. to have\nan overhead bridge there and the tracks\nbelow.\nThe Mayor said that if the contractor\nhere had a 10,000 yard surplus of\nmaterial over fill it might be advisable\nfor the city engineer to communicate\nwith the G. T. P. on the matter of this\nbig dumping space.\nAid. Pattullo said he believed a number\nof lot holders in that district were\ncounting on trackage adjoining their\nlots, and these people's interests would\nbe affected by a solid fill here.\nSmall Accounts Oodered Paid\nA report from the Finance committee\nrecommending the payment of one or\ntwo small accounts was adopted at last\nnight's city council meeting and the\naccounts passed for payment, on the\nmotion of Aid.

No matter how heavy it\nmay rain in Prince Rupert it does not\nappear to affect the river much, but the\nweather seems to be moderating in the\ninterior, with less frost and a tendency\nto turn from snowing to raining. This\nmay help a little.\nThe Port Simpson reached Kitselas\nall right and at half past eight this\nmorning started to return. After she\ngets here she will probably be tied up\nfor the winter. The Inlander is still\non her way to Hazelton and appears\nto be making good progress.
