The advertisers, a prominent Winnipeg\nreal estate firm, have the impudence\nto insert a photograph of J, L.\nPridham'8 orchard. Kelowna, to\nillustrate their Kootenay lands. It\nis an unmistakable tribute to the\noriginal, but does not speak well\n~f6T\"th\"endistrict\"advertisedrwheri^a\nfirm has to pirate photographs of\nother districts in order to induce\nbuyers, and reflects anything but\ncredit on the firm itself. Such an\nunprincipled mode of advertising\ndeserves wide publicity,' and if a\nfirm has lands for sale of which it\nis ashamed to photograph, it had\nfar better not publish a picture at\nall.\n-*B\u00bb\nThe Orchard City Record is in\nreceipt of a circular letter from\nMr. N. F. Peters, Asst. Second\n- Vice-President of the C.P.R. in\n. which it atates that that company,\n. with a view to encouraging the\n\" development of the cities, towns\n', and villages along its lines in the\n' West and supplying their needs,\nhas established an Industrial Department.\nK . Enquires are constantly being\n\u00bb\u25a0 made as to openings in the West\nfor factories, wholesale and retail\n' houses, etc., and it is the aim of\n* the*C.P.R. to obtain full particulars\nfrom the different settlements as to\n.their requirments and attractions.\nMr. Peters also invites communi-\np>'*;cations from manufacturers and intending investors who may require\ninformation, which enquires will\n.receive careful attention, and every\nendeavor made to give reliable information.\nThe Saturday Sunset about hits\nthe mark when it says \"Apparently\nthe causes of Socialism and Temperance are both hampered by the\nsame drawbacks\u2014the illogical, intolerant and extreme views of\nleaders and press exponents.\"\n-\u00ab\u00abs\u00bb\nNational Anthem to be Played. More\nBriskly.\nFor the future, \"God Save the King\" is,\nby the express desire of His Majesty, to be\nplay in quicker time by all military bands\nthan has hitherto been the custom. An\norder of the Army Council has been\nissued, instructing military bandmasters\nthat the time is to be 84 crochets to the\nminute instead of 60. It is understood\nthat the King and the Royal Family\nobjected to the slower time as too dirge\nlike, and the brisker rendering of the music has been tried before the King, and\napproved by him. The order applies to\nservice bands in all parts of the Empire,\nincluding at least 400. military bands, and\nother bands will probably fall in line with\nthe brisker rendering.\nTWO TONS OF SHELL A MINUTE.\nThe American Navy.\nThe American Navy, says and American\nwriter in an American Magazine, now\nleads the world in accuracy and rapidity\nof shooting; six years ago it was behind\nthe Navy of every first-class Power.\nSix years ago the standard for firing heavy\nturret guns\u2014wh:ch are now a battleship's\nsole weapon of consequence in battle-\nwas once ir. five minutes; the average of\nhits on the target now in use would not\nhave been once an hour. At present these\nguris fire an average of one and a half\nshots a minute; they hit the target once a\na minute. Six years ago the standard rate\nof fire for six-inch guns was less than two\nshots a minute; as shown by the tests of\n1902, less than one shot a minute hit the\ntarget. To-day these guns frequently\nmake as many as'twelve hits a minute,\nand the average of the whole Navy is sue\nhits a minute. These are the records at\nthe 1,600-yard range. .At the last long\nrange target practice iii Massachusetts\nBay the battleships of the North Atlantic\nFleet, firing at a target from three to five\naway, averaged nearly 30 per cent, of hits.\nWith a target one-third the \u25a0 \"size of the\nships at Santiago, at distances from two to\nthree times as great, our Fleet made .more\nthan fifteen times the percentage of hits.\nTranslated into terms of war,\" these\nchanges mean: Six years ago an American\nbattleship would not hit an enemy's vessel\nat a battle range of three miles or more\noftener than twice an hour. To-day every\nship of an enemy's fleet' steaming into\nrange would be struck by two tons of steel\nshell every minute by. 'every modern\nAmerican ship firing at her. Solid metal\nspatters like mud when these great projectiles strike it; when charged with their\nhigh explosives these shells \u2022 are swept\nthrough the ship in fragments of'from two\nhundred pounds in weight down to the\nfinest steel dust. In all human probability\nno ship in the world could stand; such a\nfire fifteen minutes. \u2022: ;,\nThe Yellow Peril.\nSpeaking at a banquet in London, given\nby the Royal Colonial Institute to welcome\nLord Northcote, his lordship remarked on\nthe necessity of viewing the yellow immigration question from an Australian\nvie-w point\u2014He declared-Au\u00abtralia_was increasingly protectionist, and . urged the\nnecessity of English emigration.\nMore Railways for B.C.\nBesides rushing main line construction\nin the north this year, the Grand Trunk\nPacific is formulating , plans for building\nbranch lines in British Columbia on a\nscale of magnitude never dreamt of by the\npublic. \t\nFruit4 Trees, Ornamental Roses, ' etc.\nAll stocfe strictly\nfirst-class and home\ngrown.\nCatalogue Free\nApply\nA E.
