Stewart went to Rossland on Sunday, but left for the south\non Monday 'before (the police were\nnotified of the offence. Efforts are\nbeing made to locate him.\nThat Stewart was able to pass tbe\ncheck was , due to a combination of\ncircumstances peculiarly favorable to\nthe alleged bunco man. He is said to\nhave gone into the Hudson Bay store\nand purchased a pair of boots. In\npayment he presented a check for\n186.75 to the clerk, who happened to\nbe a man who had roomed at the same\nhotel with him for some time and, consequently, knew him well and was also\naware of the fact that Stewart had\nbeen employed by Mr. Henry. The\ncheck was, therefore, taken without\na very close examination, and aB tbe\nbanks were not open until Monday,\nand some time was occupied in investigations before the police were called\nin, Stewart was given a long start.\nWith him on his trip to Rossland,\nStewart took a camera, which he borrowed from an acquaintance at the\nhotel and also a grip, the property of\nthe same man.

Flset We had word from the\nToronto board of trade on Wednesday\nasking for 600 tents and a supply of\nbedding, etc. We have no authority ourselves to respond to It. However, It is\none of the fixed regulations of the department that no such free issue Is to\nbe made without an order In council\nand this regulation Is very well known.\nApplicants may not wish to put up a\nbond of $17,000 as security for tents,\nconsequently what authority haB the\nmilitia department to act In the matter?\nThe applicants then asked the premier for a free issue of tents at 11\no'clock on Friday. I was given cabinet\nauthority to act at 12 o'clock.\nA telegram was sent to Toronto telling them to get tents and bedding ready\nfor transportation and at 11 o'clock the\nsame night they were told to get them\nont. That does not look much like red\ntape; we acted promptly as soon as\nwe were given authority to do so.\nTwo More Dead\nTORONTO, July 18\u2014The following\ndispatch has been received from the\nPorcupine relief committee:\n\"We regret to advise that the bodies\nof Marshall Morrison, hockey player,\nHalleybury, and Fred Herbert, England\n\u2022have been located by our search party.\nAnother party has no bad news to report.

The discussion lasted till 6 o'clock, when a\ndivision revealed the presence of a\nlarger proportion of Conservative than\nLiberal votes, standing at Gl to 45, a\ngovernment majority of 16. W.

He desired to voice a complaint aB ito the ventilation of the\nchamber and made an appeal to Hon.\nWilliam Pugsley, minister of public\nworks, to see that something was done\nto that end,\nR. L. Borden made an Inquiry in reference to the progress which has been\nmade with the census returns. He asked when the work would be completed\nand when the result would be known.\nMr. Fisher said that he would not like\nto say off-hand when lt would be possible to give Mr. Borden tbe Information asked for.\nSir Wilfrid Laurier informed Dr.\nSproule that a treaty covering the question of pelagic sealing had been signed\nat Washington and it would be laid before parliament at an early date.\nJ.

He waB anxious to nave the Canadian bill conform\nto British legislation.\nReciprocity\nMr. Fielding then put the ways and\nmeans motion, which meant the resumption of the reciprocity debate. An opposition amendment was at once forthcoming.\nW. S. Middleboro, North Orey brought\nup the question of the claims of the\nveterans of 1866-70, repeating the resolution moved by F. D. Monk In 1906,\nthat these claims be recognised.\nMr. Middleboro after reviewing the\naction of tbe Mackenzie government\nand citing numerous delegations of veterans, quoted statements of Sir Wilfrid\nLaurier and Sir Frederick Borden in\n1906 from which he said the veterans\nhad a right to expect some substantial\nrecognition.\nSir Wilfrid Laurier regretted that Mr.\nWILL COIN  SILVER\nDOLLARS   AT   OTTAWA\nROSSLAND, July 18\u2014A.

Short\nly after the act was passed, and\nbefore the designs for tbe coins\nunder the act were approved, the\nlate king's ideath took Ipiace.\nThe designs bearing, the effigy\nof the reigning king have not\nyet been formally approved. The\neffigy of the king which will appear on the coins, must bave the\napproval of his majesty .and this\nhaB taken time to obtain. It is\nanticipated that in the near\nfuture the government will be in\na position to strike coins under\nthe new act at the Ottawa mint.\nAT\nS\nDeputy Minister Scott\nThrough Nelson\nMiddleboro had not waited for the\nminister of militia who had the matter\nudder consideration. The question, Sir\nWilfrid said, was 40 or 45 years old.\nThe Macdonald government bad dealt\nwith it and the claims at that time bad\nnot been entertained. Sir Wilfrid\nasked why different action should be\nexpected of the present government.\nOn being reminded of the grants to\nSouth African veterans, he pointed out\nthat there had been a good deal of\nopposition to those grants on the ground\nthat they had benefitted neither the\ncountry nor the veterans. He .said, that\nfor his part he did not feel disposed\nto treat applications of veterans on a\nuniversal basis. There were degrees\nof merit He said that his* own regl-\nment had not been In action but that\nhe had been given a medal, which he\nhad not deserved. Finally be. reminded\nthe hoUBe that pensions had been given\nto those disabled in battle.\nVarious opposition members kept up\nthe debate, Dr. Sproule urging that the\nveterans ought to he given a definite\nstatement and Samuel Barber of Hamilton characterized the premier's..statement as cold blooded- Ot'. -Reid, Gren-\nville, B. A. Lancaster Houghton Lennox, S. Sharpe and others continued\nthe debate.\nR. L. Borden contended that if there\nwas any good reason for different treatment accorded the veterans they were\nentitled to know the reason of the\ndifference. They have at least the\nright not to be humbugged.\n\u2022At 5:50 a vote was taken and the\ndivision stood 61 to 45 against the opposition amendment, a government majority of 16..\nBush Fires\nAt the evening sitting W. S. Smith,\nConservative member for East Algoma,\ndrew the attention of tne government\nto the disaster which has overtaken\nnorthern Ontario In the shape of forest\nfires. Private Individuals and municipalities as well as the Ontario government had contributed to the relief\nof the suffering public, but he said he\nhad not yet seen in the public press\nthat the federal government was considering a measure of relief and he\ncould assure the ministers that anything, which they might decide to do\nin the way of granting assistance would\nmeet with the approval of the Canadian\npeople. He believed that the government would be fully justified in contributing liberally to the relief of the\nsufferers.\nMr. Fielding said that the government regrets the conditions existing ln\nnorthern Ontario and the people have\nthe warmest sympathy of the ministers\nand government and everything possible was being done by the government\nand also by a committee of Ottawa\ngentlemen, but they were unable to\nfurnish the government with exact\nInformation as to the amount of losses\nsustained. It had Ibeen represented\nto the government that for the present\nat least sufferers were being attended\nto. As Information so far received Is\nof a general and indefinite character\nthe government proposed to await detailed and accurate information before\ndeciding what, if any, relief should be\ngiven. In conclusion Mr. Fielding said\nthat the government had sent tents and\nblankets to those rendered homeless\nby the fire and that this of itself constituted a considerable measure of relief.\nTelegraph  Rates\nW.

B. Mackenzie, secretary of the Associated Boards of Trade of Eastern\nBritish Columbia, sent out a communication to various boards of trade and\nother authorities with regard to the\nopening up for navigation of the Columbia river.\nIn the course of his letter he pointed out that lntormation went to show\nthat it was not such a formidable undertaking as it appeared at first aight\nto make that magniflcient waterway\nnavigable from Its mouth as far as\nRevelstoke, B.C., and it might not be\nImpossible to continue to lake Windermere, not far from its source.\nThe navigation of the Columbia\nriver waB a matter of the greatest importance to tbe states of Oregon and\nWashington and to BritiBh Columbia\nand could undoubtedly be brought about\nby the co-operation of the governments\nof the United States and Canada with\nthe assistance of the states through\nwhich lt passed. It would act ns a\nregulator of interior railroad freight\nrates, would attract desirable tourist\ntravel and would be the means of\nbringing under cultivation large areas\nof land along and tributary to its\nbanks. Letters from many Influential\nauthorities In reply to his communication have come to hand.\nN. G. Blaloek, M.D., director of the\nnational rivers and harbor congress\nfor Washington, wrote from Walla\nWalla in support of the proposal and\nsaid lt would seem that the mere\nstatement ot the proposition would\nelicit the active support of every citizen of both countries, but great movements were slow; there was a certain\nofficial lethargy at times and there was\nalso active opposition from some transportation interests which would be deprived of monopoly advantages by the\nopen river. For these reasons there\nwas need for constant and combined\neffort to secure their great aim. It\nwas recognized on their side of the line\nthat this movement of people and government was of the utmost importance\nand opened the way to developments\nof untold advantage to both sides of\nthe line.\nUnited States Senator George E.\nChamberlain wrote that he was heartily\nIn accord with the project and if any\nappropriation waa made by the Dominion or provincial authorities on the\nCanadian side he would endeavor to\nsecure a federal appropriation for removing obstructions Bouthof the line.\nE. C. G'ltner, secretary of the Portland chamber of commerce wrote that\nthey would leave no stone unturned\nto try to get an appropriation through,\nG. W. Coburn, secretary of the We-\nnatchee Commercial club, said the ques-\ntion of an open Columbia river was\nonly just gradually being realized by\ntheir people and he would welcome any\nsuggestions or movement to keep up\nthe interest and establish the importance of the river transportation. He\nasked if it would not be a good idea\nto hold a convention of delegates from\nall the towns and cities on the great\nwaterway at some central point,, all\ndelegates to travel as far as possible\non the Columbia river.\nC. W. Barrlnger of the Columbia\nRiver Improvement league, Marcus,\nWash., wrote that his league was working on the matter and expected good\nresults along the river throughout the\nwhole of Washington. He had interested Governor E. M. Hay who would\nincorporate the essence of the matter\nin his message to the legislature and\nact aa their envoy to take the matter\nup with President Taft.\nLastly there was a communication\nfrom Hon. William Pugsley, minister\nof public works, Ottawa, who expressed\nhimself as being heartily In sympathy\nwith the project. He had placed an\namount In the estimates for the purpose of malting the necessary survey.\nOnly five-twelfths of the amount, however was voted and he cou]d not proceed until he had obtained the full\namount so that when once commenced\nit could be continued to completion.\nHe trusted that very shortly after the\nreassembling ot parliament the full appropriation would be passed, after\nwhich the survey would bo made.\nHOT AT EDGEWOOD\n\/Soecial to The Dally News.)\nEDGEWOOD, B.C., July IS\u2014The\nBonnlngton made her first trip down\nthe Arrow lakes Monday tn charge of\nCapt.

C, July 18.\u2014There\nappears to some discontent In consequence of the cancellation of permits\nfor land clearing by fire In various\nsections. The officials of the forest\nprotection branch of the lands department are fully in sympathy with objections of careful settlers who do not\nsee why they should be deprived of the\nright to utilize fire in the clearing of\ntbelr lands, and who contend that the\nbringing of their holdings under cultivation is thereby hampered and retarded. Unfortunately, however, it is\nimpossible to discriminate in the formulation of rules and regulations between those who will exercise due precautions and control their fires and\nthose who will not do so, and the\nfact that out of 40 reports of extensive fires of the present season that\nare just to hand, land clearing operations are set down as the originating\ncause in 13 instances, almost 35 pet-\ncent, is evidence in itself that some\nstrict control of such operations has\nbecome a necessity.\nOf the 13 fires referred to and\nchargeable to land clearing, but two\nwere under requisite permit, and originated through insufficient care- in the\nhandling of the settlerB' fires. A common source of destructive forest fires\nla smouldering fire from slashing burnings, while the burning of brush without sufficient force to cope with any\npossible spread of the . flames is another established danger to valuable\npropertyt In one case recently, Bparks>\nfrom a clearing fire, under permit, in\nthe vicinity of Salmo, in the Ymlr district, occasioned a fire which has cost\nthe country $900 in fighting, which, had\ndue care been exercised, would not\nhave been occasioned, tbe province at\nthe same time retaining a valuable\ntract of timber now written off as lost.\nNecessary Precautions.\nTbe clearing of land by fife is attended with a minimum rlBk during the\nwinter and Bprlng months, and during\nsuch seasons it should be arranged for,\nalthough the summer appeals to the\naverage settler as the best suiting his\nconvenience. When fire is invoked\nduring dryer seaaons of the year, cer-.\ntain cardinal ruleB of precautionary\nprocedure are essential, and their observance would' produce a saving of\nmillions of dollars now counted as\ntimber waste.\nPrimarily, slashings should not be\nburned, tbe timber refuse being collected into piles Instead and care being\ntaken to leave a sufficient fire guard\nbetween the* fire and adjacent inflammable material, either standing or fall-\nkfti\nThe Hudson's Bay Stores\nThe Stores of Satisfaction for Value and Quality\nOnly Four Days More of the Great\nJuly  Clearance Sale\nAs explained before, we can offer prices like these only twice a year,\njust before our semi-annual stocktaking.

ARTHUR MAKES PROPOSITION.\nDr. Arthur has taken up the suggestion of The Daily News that both he\nand Dr. Jones should resign their positions as members of the board of\nschool trustees and shouhi both seek\nre-election, but there are strings to his\nacceptance of the proposal made. In\nthe first place he desires that the acceptance of his resignation should be\npostponed until three days after the\ncourts have decided the issue between\nthe city council and the school board\nover the question of finances. In the\nnext place he makes stipulations as to\nthe manner in which the election shall\nbe held. Instead of fighting the matter out by he and Dr. Jones running\neither for the balance of his own term\nwhich expires in January next or for\nthe balance of Dr. Jones' term, which\nexpires a year later, Dr. Arthur appears\nto suggest that he and Dr. Jones and a\nthird candidate, to be selected by the\nother three trustees, should contest\npresumably the two seats, the effect of\nwhich might be that he and Dr. Jones\nwould both be re-elected and matters\nwould remain exactly as they are at\nthe present time.\nIn the first place It may be asked\nwhat object can there be in delaying\nthis election, lf one is to be held, until\nafter the decision of the courts In the\ndispute between the city council and\nthe school board. This decision will not\nbe given for months at least.

In the meantime\nthe situation so far as the school\nboard was concerned would remain as\nit Is at present.\nThe only excuse there is for a school\nboard election at the present time ts\nto give the public an opportunity to\npronounce upon the differences between\nDr. Arthur and Dr. Jones as members\nof the board and on the attitude of each\ntoward the other, but particularly that\nof the former, as a paid servant ot the\nboard, toward a member duly elected\nby the people of Nelson as one ot their\nrepresentatives on the board.\nFurther than this it may be aske:l\nwhy the other three members of the\nboard should be given the right to select the third candidate. In the first\nplace any such arrangement would be\nout of the question for any person\nwould have the right to contest the\nseat. The suggestion, however, has the\nearmarks of an attempt to load the dice\nagainst Dr. Jones in case of her election, for it would mean that in spite\nof public pronouncement in her favor,\nshe would find herself with four col-\nleagues all more or less opposed to\nher presence on the board and disinclined to work with her as a fellow\nmember.\nAltogether Dr. Arthur's proposal is to\nsay the least a most extraordinary one,\nso much so indeed that it is hard to\nimagine anyone entertaining any idea\nof its acceptance.\nO. P. R. ANNOUNCEMENT\nAccording to an announcement made\nby Mr. W. B. Lanlgan of the Canadian\nPacific railway yesterday that company\nintends to proceed at once with the\nconstruction of a apur from Three\nForks to Bear Lake. This, it 1b to be\nhoped, is but preliminary to the extension of this line.through to Kajjlo,\nwhich would be, by afl means the beat\nsolution ot thetranepbrta'tlou problems\nof the eastern portion of tbe Sloian\nand ot Kaslo district\nBut whether the decision of the Canadian Pacific railway' in tils mafeer\"\nIncludes such an extension or not it'ie\nsincerely to,.b\u00ab.hoped that,* situation,\nwill not arise ln which, the Kaslo and\nSlocan railway will be left in the hands\nof the local syndicate which recently\npurchased lt to be operated at a kiss\nbecause ofcaay action of tbe Canadian\n.Paeltloi railway m invading any teftl-\ntorjr .which improperly tributary to tie-\nKaslo & Slocan railway. Any BUch\nsituation would react, against .the interests of the country' as a whole, while\nthe opening of a through ljne from\nThree Forks to Kaslo would be distinctly In the Interests ot all concerned. It\nis for this reason that The Daily News\nexpresses the hope that some satisfactory arrangement may be arrived at in\nregard to this matter.\nCOMMUNICATIONS\nFORESTS  AND   WATER.\nTo the Editor of the Daily News.\nSir,\u2014In a press dispatch from Madison, Wis., contained In your issue of\nthe 15th inst., it is stated that a Professor .Mead, attached to the University\nof Wisconsin, haB made Investigations\nwhich prove that \"neither deforestation nor reforestation. has any practical\neffect on high or low water levels In\nstreams or on the regularity of the\nflow.\" It would appear to be necessary to emphasize the fact that investigations made ln Wisconsin, where\nclimate and. topography are very different to what we have in the Kootenays, can have bat little value for us.\nProfessor Mead may or may not be an\neminent scientist and his conclusions\nmay or may not be right as regards\nWisconsin, but lt is very certain that\nsb regards the Kootenays, the Rocky\nntcuntaln states to the south, the\nmountainous portions of middle and\nsouthern Europe and many other parts\nof the world, the above conclusions are\nentirely wrong. Bradley, speaking of\nthe matter, admits of no debatevEmin\nent men on this continent hold not only\na contrary opinion to Professor Mead\nbut have given us facts proving that\nwithin the fast 30 or 40 years the flow\nof certain rivers and streams, has been\nadversely affected by deforestation.\nFurther, the investigations of 'an obscure American professtfr.; eailnot disprove what history and-scientific\nrecords tell us of past and present\ntimber and stream1 'flow conditions in\nNEEDED WHERE PilN EXISTS.'\nHeadaches, Neuragia, Insomnia, Etc.\nIf your dealer does not keep them\nwe will mail you a box {18 powders)\non receipt of % cents.\nI.

Kootenays natural re-\nseeding Is often delayed for many\nyears, and on steep slopes with shallow Boil may remain entirely absent.\nThe soil, no longer held in place by the\nrootB of living vegetation, is soon\nwashed off by melting snows and heavy\nrains which leave behind an exposure\nof large rocks. Such changes have been\nnoted by most old-timers In the Kootenays, and there the snow melts early\nIn spring, reaching the valley In an unwelcome overflow; while the rainfall,\ninstead of being stored up for a steady\nsummer supply, rushes down rocky\nchannels, reaching the main rivers\nwithin not many hours.\nIt Is quite true that diversity of\nopinion exists as to whether rainfall\nIs greatly increased by reason of a\ncountry being well timbered, but authorities are absolutely unanimous In\nstating that to make that rainfall useful for farming and Industrial purposes\nrivers and streams must at their heads\nbe well timbered. Nor are science and\npractice at variance here, for every,\nfarmer,, lumberman and prospector In\nthe Kootenays knows that the streams\nsurrounded, by and emerging from the\ngreen timber are the only.ones that\ncan be depended on for a steady flow.\n\u2022 Possibly ppefesspr.Mead $14VhoV.ln-i\ntend that the result of his investigations should- be held as applying to.\nconditions other- than.,those, in Wisconsin, but at any rate the press dispatch'\ndid not make this at all clear, and it\nwould be a serious .matter If the entirely wrong impression got abroad that\nfire and reckless lumbering could not\nand would not harmfully affect the\" flow\nor6ttrrivew;\u00ab^tti\u00abaiJw; *' *c\"\u25a0'\u25a0\" '\"\u25a0'\n\u2022*.;   ;.*\" \u25a0\u00a3;\u00a3 i? vVA ,a,-6. i*an<?. ,\nWaneta, B.C., .July H, 1909.\nDR. ARTHUR'S PROPOSAL\nTo the Editor of The Dally News:\nSii^-Your report of the. school board\nmeeting last evening contained the\nusual Inaccuracies. Any Interchange of\ncompliments occurred after the business\nwas completed and the meeting adjourned.\nHowever, your suggestion of an election between Mrs. Jones and myself\noffers a possible way out of a very dis-\nagreable situation. It Is no pleasure\nto be obliged to sit with a person who\nat almost every meeting either directly\nor bjMmplication accuses one of lying\nor stealing, or both.\nFor nearly 20 years I have been reelected to the school board, on the occasion of the last contest by an overwhelming majority. If, since that time,\nI have lost the confidence of the people\nI wish to know it   .\nTomorrow my resignation will be\nplaced ln the hands of an impartial\nthird person to take effect the third\nday after the court has decided the suit\nbetween the board and the city council\non condition that Mrs. Jones' resignation to take effect at' tho same time\nis in the hands of the same third person by noon of Saturday, the 22nd inst,\nboth of ns to stand for reelection with\na third candidate to be selected by the\nremaining three members of the board.\nB.

Rodolpbe Lemieux, postmaster\ngeneral, in the course of his reply laid\nemphasis on the tact that cable companies had agreed to cut rates en messages that were not urgent and that lt\nhad been decided at the recent Imperial\nconference that lf further concessions\naire not made a .state owned cable' win\nbe stretchea across-'the Atlantic.

Dewing haB written one of the finest studies\nof certain phases of what may be described as the modern American feminine temperament which has been publisher!    since     her    \"Other   People'B\nHose Carson, the central figure in the\nnovel, is a dancer of worldwide fame\nand impeccable reputation and she\ntells the story herself. \"It isn't an autobiography which I'm going to write. It\nwill be that only by the way; autobiography Is the history of ones own\nlife, and I find life more general than\nthat\u2014we've all taken our plunge into\nthe maelstrom. I have, I think, a peculiarly sharp sense of life; I see it\nvivid, irridoscent, lacking in the usual\nsaving haze of atmosphere.\" she says\nin the opening chapter of the book,\nwhich. Is both an introduction to the\nstory and an apologia, which to some\nextent disarms criticism for such (shortcomings as might be imputed to the\nauthor.\nEven In her early girlhood Rose had\nthe theatrical Instinct When she obtained her fathers' consent to study\nstage dancing with the definite purpose of ultimately going upon the\nstage and was in consequence obliged\nto leave the fashionable boarding school\nwhere she had been in attendance, she\ndid not slip out from the ranks of her\nschoolmates quietly, attracting as little\nattention as possible,but boldly declared\nthat she was leaving because she was\ngoing to be a dancer, and invited her\nenvious friends to attend a private\nrehearsal that afternoon. All through\nher life this same characteristic Is exhibited.\nHeredltory Influences.\nRose Carson could hardly have grown\nup to be of an ordinary type. Her parents\u2014her mother who was divorced\nwhen Rose was 13 years of age\u2014her\nfather with the Jovian stature and ambrosial beard, who engineered great rail-\nroads and was called \"Billy\" by friends\nin restaurants\u2014must have Influenced\nher more than she, who did not believe\nin heredity, believed. Of her mother\nshe writes:\n\"A sort of wlldness she had\u2014a gleam\nand a glimmer\u2014which was yet a wlldness of cities and a gleam of lights.\nWith the persuasive oriental scent she\nused, the Jangling of trinkets at her\nbelt, the flashing laugh that showed her\nteeth, she had the effect of touching all\nthe senses at once. Her presence was\nconfusing, and as much an emblem of\nhazard as the piratical Black Jack ana\nscarlet knotted kerchief.\" Her mother\nhad In her blood some tinge that must\nhave come down from some remote erring ancestress, which had awakened\nand was spreading lute some thin fire.\nIn imagination, at least,\" declares Rose\nCarson, \"we most of us have it; it is\nthe sordidneBB of reality that saves ub.\nThe thing I mean is the thing ln us opposed to certainty.\"\nShe did not love her mother, and did\nnot feel her loss when the New York\nJudge awarded her father a decree. \"She\nA Fire-pot That Won't Crack\nTHE greatest strain falls midway between the top and bottom of a one-\npiece fire-pot, because the live coals\nare located at the centre of the fire.

She crosses\nthe Atlantic with her father, and^ becomes a pupil of Syms, the down at\nheel Cockney dancing master with the\nBoule of an artlBt, the imagination which\nultimately makes him the right hand\nman of the great Daniels, producer of\nspectacular playB. Under Syms' management she gives some public performances which catch the eye of Daniels,\nwho presents her to the world at a\nsalary which lesser lights only dream\nof.   Briefly she Is successful.\nSo much for her outer life, of which\nthe Btory alone, with its little digressions and pen and Ink sketches of life,\nIs of more than ordinary interest.\nBut it is in the dellneat of Rose Carson's mind or soul or temperament that\nMiss Dewing displays the power which\nin \"Other People's Houses\" gave her\nplace among the Four Hundred, or less\nof present-day writers whose productions are worth reading.\nRose fs shown primarily as a dancer\nwith the perfect physique necessiated\nby her profession. She has tremendous strengths, which she uses In the\nservice of her art, and which overflow\noccasionally and give one a glimmer of\nthe real woman beneath. At first lt is\njust a mere ray of light and even with\nthe concluding page the reader Is not\nconvinced that she \"has found herself.\"\nOne haB the suspicion even then, that\nin all human probability she will continue to sip at the world's sweet and\nbitter cups for another 10 years or so.\nShe Is of the type which settles down\nto fulfill her destined end at a late\nperiod in life.\nHer Human Growth.\nThere is a moment of awakening to\nlife when her father takes her to the\nCafe Martin. For the moment new impulses clamor about her; she looks out\nand sees something beyond her studies\nas a dancer. Again on the boat as she\nleaves for England she seeB young\nBlack, the first, man to hold her gaze,\nto make her think.\nHer success achieved in London, she\nreturns to America and in Chicago\nmeets old Colonel Rangeley, a veteran\nof the west, worn out, crippled, near to\ndeath. Once more she feels this awakening. The chapter in which she tells\nof her conversation with the old man is\none of the finest in the book. She is\nabsolutely unsullied by her profession\nher reputation and her life alike have\nbeen, and continue, without reproach.\nIt Is this that makes the study so absorbing.\nShe learns something of love when she\nmeets and becomes engaged to Barney\nGrant, whom she gives up for his uncle,\nSimon Featherly. the financier of whom\nshe says In an earlier chapter: \"There's\nSimon Featherly, the husband I have\nattained and discarded. He has a point\nof view\u2014a whole philosophy of llf<\nwhich he has shielded from the faintest\ndisintegrating breath. He has a system\nof balances so.fine that on the wrong\nside a feather would weigh. His sins,\neven, have always been cold, calculated,\nso moderate that they barely rank as\nthat; excess for him Is an anathema. The\nonly excess he ever knew, I think, was\none of hard intellectual curiosity.\"\n\"Hard, intellectual curiousty,\"\u2014It Is\nthis one fe'elfl, that brings Simon and\nRose together\u2014It 1b this which causes\nthem to part. There is no discord, no\nquarrel; they just decide to separate,\non the friendliest of terms. Of course\nshe gives a reason for the breaking up\nof relations with her husband. And\nthe reason is Penny Black, the boy\nwhom she met on the Atlantic steamer,\nand who later marries her friend Valentine Seymour.\nBut she does not go to Black. She\nthinks she cares for him; yet continues\nto exhibit that spirit of adventure inherited from her mother only to the extent of giving up her husband.\nThe final denouement has the merit\nfrom a popular point, of view of being\nhappy. It Is consistent with Rose's\ncharacter that she should return to her\nhusband after a series of adventures\nwhich still leave, her within the boundaries of propriety\u2014but it Isn't consistent of the author to assume that she\nwill stay with htm.\nIt is an acute study, and lacks that\npalnfulneBS which \"Other People's\nHouses\" sometime approached. It is\naltogether, an absorbing hook, and is\nclear out of the beaten path, the char-\niicters delineated are novel, they are\ntreated In a novel way. It is a book\nwhich should be read by young and old,\nIn spite of its theme there Is not a\nline in the book which could be regard\ned as suggestive or unsuitable for\nothers than the seasoned reader. Men\nand women, hoys and girls can read the\nstory with tulvantage and freedom\nfrom possible harm.\nKLAUS  HINRICH   BASS.\n\"It Is not too often,\" says the writer\nof the leading, article.in last week's\nliterary supplement, of .the Chicago\nEvening Post, \"that a reviewer may\nIndulge in the noble pleasure of praising. But this is one of those rare occasions. The discussion of general\nideaB, the gentle animadversion t o\nethics and politics, with which most\nnew novels can be greeted, Is out of\nplace here. This (Frenssen's Klaus\nHlnrich Bass) is a different kind of\nbook. It is of the quality of Lorna\nDoone.

Penn, BuperviBor of the S el-\nway national forest, embracing 1,600,-\n000 acres, formerly part of the Nez\nPerce reserve ln northern Idaho, predicts that the time Is not far distant\nwhen areoplanes and wireless telegraphy will be Important factors ln\nprotecting timbered lands in the Pacific slope country. A man ln a flying\nmachine could do more accurate and\nextensive survey work ln the mountains in a few hours, he believes, than\nIs usually accomplished by 20 rangers\nIn a week. When flerece fires are\nraging in the rough country, and with\nwireless stations Installed on the high\npeaks, he adds, it would be a comparatively easy task to assemble men\nand apparatus at convenient points to!\nextinguish the flames and prevent\nspreading. Several hundred miles of\ntelephone lines have been constructed\nthis season to protect the forests and\none big timber holding concern Is\nmaking experiments with motorcycles\nin northern Idaho. So far this season\nthere has been no serious fires in any\nof the northwestern forests.\nWHEAT  CROP  HEAVY\nIN  SOUTHERN WASHINGTON\nSPOKANE, Wash., July 18.\u2014Wheat\nthreshing Is well under way in the\nsouthern tier of counties in eastern\nWashington, and the returns to date\nare highly satisfactory. P. H. McKay,\nfarm loan Inspector for the Union\nTrust & Savings bank of Spokane, an\nauthority on crop conditions in the\nnorthwest, reports seeing fields which\nyielded from 35 to 00 bushels to the\nacre. He thinks 45 bushels will be\nabout the average. Judging from pres-1\nent market conditions, he added, tbe\ngrowers will realize anywhere from 70\n|'to 80 cents a bushel. Millers say the\ncrop In the 14 counties ln the eastern\npart of this Btate will be larger than\nthe record yield in 1907, when more\nthan 38,000,000 bushels was harvested,\nthe average acre yield for the state\nbeing 26 bushels. It is expected that\nbetween 19,000,000 and 20,000,000 bushels of wheat will be made into flour\nin the local mills, the rest being sent\nto Pacific coast points. Some of the\ngrain will be shipped to 4,he central\nstates this year.\nDon't Pot Off Getting\nThat\nTwo-Piece Suit\nLots of hot weather ahead of us\nyet, when you will feel the need of\none every day.\nWe are showing just now a fine\nselection of materials for two-\npiece suits\u2014light, cool and comfortable.\nDrop ln and look them over.\nDave Small & Co\nMerchant Tailors\n5071\/z Baker St. Nelson\n^0O\nWe Find That\nOur Meat Slicer\nis still running true and cutting more\nBoiled Ham during the hot weather\nthan at any other time In Its history.\nThis is the result of having a good\nfoundation, namely, best quality of\ngoods at reasonable prices.
