Alvord, jr., the em\nbezzling note teller of the First\nNational bank, New York, was ar\nrested in Boston Tuesday, and\ntaken to a New York prison. Alvord took his arrest quietly. He\narrived in Boston last week and\nwent to the Hotel Touraine, but did\nnot register, On Wednesday he\nengaged a back room on the second\ndoor of a lodging house on Hunt\nington avenue near west Newton\nstreet, where he went under the\nname of Mr. Smith of New York.\nAlvord passed a restful night in a\ncell in the police headquarters.\nThis morning he was allowed the\nprivilege of the corridor and he sat\nout in his shirt sleeves reading the\nmorning papers and smoking.\nThe Tables Turned on the C.

It is understood that\nin the majority of cases hotel runners acted as go-betweens.\nTHE TUNNEL CONTRACT COMPLETED.\nContractor Olson Finishes His Encasement\nWith Cascade Water Power Company.\nThursday, Mr. Olaf Olson finished his contract work on the 400-\nfoot tunnel, which extends from'\nthe dam under the C. P. R. railway track and connects with the\nopen flumeway which runs 2000\nfeet to near the powerhouse site.\nThis was a difficult and tedious job,\nbut Mr. Olson carried the great\nwork through satisfactorily to the\nWater Power company. Thursday\nhis tunnel men were paid off and\ndischarged. To-day Mr. Olson\nvacated the Black hotel and turned\nit over to its owner, Mr. Julius\nBlack. Mr. Olson expects to return to his home near Seattle, where\nhe has a large and profitable farm.\nAs near as can be learned, it is\nthe intention of the Water Power\ncompany to complete the work on\nthe dam and also to lay the foundation for tbe powerhouse before the\ncoming of high water again. The\nunfinished portion of the Quinlivan\ncontract will also be carried to a\nfinish, so that in the early spring\nthe erection of the powerhouse may\nbe undertaken and the flume pipes\nlaid.\nA Friendly untherlnf at D.

We understand;\nthe McKay ferry cable has already\nbeen purchased for the ferry.\nFor the purpose, also, to give the\nEaster Sunday mining district sr\nready railway outlet for the shipment of ore, steps are being taken\nto continue the wagon read from\nthe marble works to the Easter\nSunday mine. Cascade will be,\nunder this arangement, the shipping point for both the marble\nquarry and the Easter Sunday\nmines.

Y. Journal.\nwwtwttmw^^\nTeoa'\nBdr\nAND THERE WERE OIANTS.\nA Distinction Must be Made Between (Hants\nand Large Men.\nIn the mythology of all nations\nis preserved the story of giants. It\nis as universal as the Deluge legends, which are relied on to support the Mosiac account of the\nFlood. They are found everywhere and in all forms, from the\netory of the Titans, of whom Hesiod\ntang to the huge creatures of whom\nour coast legends tell. A distinction must be made between giants\nand large men. Of the latter there\nare many historical instances.\nFredrick the Great had a Scotchman in his guard who stood 8 feet\n3 inches in his bare feet. Pliney\ntells of an Arabian who was 9 feet\n\"\\ incheB tall, and says he heard\nof two others, each of whom was\nsix inches taller than this one.\nThe writer of the Book of Deuteronomy speaks of Og, king of Ba-\nshan, who was the \"remnant of the\ngiants,\" whose bed was nine cubits\nlong. There is some doubt as to\njust how long \"the cubit of a man\"\nwhich was the measurement in this\nease, was, but Og's bed was probab\nly 15 feet long. If he occupied it\nentirely, he was a man of extraordinary size. But more of the Basha n\npeople further on. Goliath was\nover 10 feet tall but he could not\nproperly be called a giant, any\nmore than Fredrick's Scotchmon\nabove referred to. When giants are\nmentioned in the legends, a race is\nmeant not single individuals.\nIt is nothing surprising that now\nand then a man read et abnormal\nwith corresponding development.\nFor a long time a common belief\nwas that the inhabitants of Patagonia were a race of giants. Magellan said they were so tall that\nhis men only came up to their\nwaists. The truth on this point\nseems to be that Patagonians are a\nlarge race of men, averaging rather\nmore than Europeans, but they\ncannot be called giants. An explanation of the stories of giants,\nwhich Roman and Grecian travellers preserved in old lime poems\nand prose writings, may be that\nthese people were themselves of\nsmall stature. The armor, rings\nand other articles of wearing apparel, that have been preserved\nfrom the years before the Christian\nera, are too small for tbe average\nmen of to-day. Hence barbarous\nraces seemed gigantic by coin rant.\nIn this connection special interest attaches to the biblical reference to Bashan and the statement\nthat Og was \"the remnant of the\ngiants.\" Bashan was the name of\nthe region lying east of the Jordan,\nand there is abundant evidence that\nit was at one time inhabited by a\nrace of men very different from\nthose now found in Asia, or, for\nthat matter, anywhere in the world\nto-day. The remains of the cities\nBtill exist, in many cases almost as\nperfect as the flays the buildings\nwere erected, so far as the bare\nstructures themselves are concerned. The material employed was\nstone, and the size of the blocks\nused indicates either that the builders had great mechanical appliances or were of extraordinary\nstrength. The size of the buildings\nsuggests that they may have been\nthe habitation of a large race.\nThere is no authentic record of the\noccupancy of these buildings by\nany people who built such edifices\nand the story of the advance of\nthe Israelites through the country\nconfirms the idea that the original\ninhabitants had disappeared almost\nwholly. Og was \"a remnant\" of\nthe gigantic people, the builders of\nthese immense cities, whose structure is a wonder to the modern\narchitects.\nA possible explanation of some\nof the giant myths may be found in\nthe suggestion that, like the story\nof dragons and other monsters,\nthey are survival of traditions\nhanded down from men who lived\nin what the geologists called the\nTertiary Period\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthat is, men who\nwere contemporary with the dyno-\nsaur, ichyosaur, the megatherium\nand those huge mastodons, whose\nbones are so frequently unearthed\nin the Yukon valley. The climatic\nconditions of the world at that time\nwere favorable to the production of\nlarge types of animal life, and there\nis intrinsic probability in the suggestion that, if man lived then, he\nwas of a stature somewhat proportionate to the huge creatures with\nwhich he was surrounded. This explanation is one that ought to commend itself to those who adhere to\nthe accuracy of the biblical narrative in all particulars. \"And there\nwere giants in those days,\" the\nwriter of Genesis says, and these\ngiants lived just before the great\ncataclysm which is called The\nFlood. Geology fixes the Ice Age\nat the close of the Tertiary Period,\nwhich was the time when gigantic\nraces of men may have lived. There\nis perhaps more than apparent\nidentity between the Ice Age of\ngeology and The Flood of the Genesis story.\nThe explanation sometimes offered for these myths\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthat they are\nsurvivals from the childhood of the\nrace\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdseem utterly unintelligible,\nalthough some very learned people\nadopt it. It has yet to be proved\nthat the race ever had any childhood. Go back as far as you will\nand the remains of high civilization\nare found, so we fancy that all explanation of myths and legends\nbased upon the notion that there\nwas a time when mankind were all\nmuch in the condition, intellect\nually, of children, must be dismiss\ned as a latter day fable devised to\naccount for things that cannot\notherwise be explained, without\nupsetting some long-cherished no\nlions.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdColonist.\nrn\nThe Yale-Columbia Lumber Co.,\nLIMITED.\nMANUFACTURERS\nOP ALL KINDS OF\nRough and Dressed Lumber, Lath, Shingles,\nMouldings and Turnings.\nPrincipal Hills at CASCADE, B C\nm\n\ufffd\ufffdColumbia Brewerytad\nForks\nEXTRA PINE\n: : Lager Beer!\nBrewed Especially for Export.\nWarranted to Keep in Any Climate.\n+-\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd-\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd M M \" M M M M M M M II f>\nFERGUSON\n&\nRITCHIE,\nSUCCESSORS TO\nDominion\nSupply\nCompany\nMMWr
