Saturday, October 22. li\nCRIPPEN SENTENCED TO DEATH\nIChain of Circumstantial Evidence Too Strong To Be Broken By\nthe Defence and Jury Had Little Difficulty in Arriving at a Verdict of Guilty of Murder.\n(Special to the Optimist)\nLondon, Oct. 22-\"Crippen has been\nIsentenced to death.\" This phrase\nI passed from mouth to mouth among\nI the great crowd that surrounded the\n1 Bailey court room this morning,\nI ind in a few moments the newsboys\nI were yelling \"extra\" and selling re-\nI views of the sensational case, with\nI pictures of the accused and others of\nI the last scenes of the momentous trial.\nThe verdict of the jury came as a\nI surprise, although those who had been\nI privileged to watch the case since its\nI commencement, could not fail to be\nimpressed with the strong case that\nwas being made for the crown. The\ncounsel for the defence depended entirely upon the address to the jury, in\nwhich Scotland Yard and its methods\nwere severely criticized and sometimes\nridiculed: and the strong point made\nthat the remains at the Crippen house\nat Hilldrop had never been identified.\nThis matter of the lack of identification was made one of the strongest\npoints.\nThe judge summed up coldly and\ndeliberately, but not to any unwonted\nlength although he did draw attention\nto the importance of the case and the\nnecessity of the jury keeping to the\nevidence and not being swayed by the\nexcitement so long continued in the\nminds of the general public.\nThe jury then retired, and a high\nstate of tension was manifest until\nthey returned to the court room. The\nverdict was handed to the judge in a\nsealed envelope, and before it was an\nnounced the recorder of the court\nplaced a small patch of black on the\nwig of the judge. The latter then\nannounced the verdict, and solemnly\nuttered the sentence of death.\nIRUSH HEATING\nOF NEW SCHOOL\n| IS ORDER TO FIRM WHO HAVE\nCONTRACT IN HAND\n| New School Will be Occupied after\nChristmas Holidaya and There Will\nbe Another Teacher Needed.

A certain number in each\nclass have usually to sit on benches\nin front of the class, without desks.\nBut when the Provincial Architect,\nMr. Lawrence, was here he assured\nthe School Board that the contract\nlor the heating of the new school had\nten awarded to a Vancouver firm with\ninstructions to rush the work. Mr.\nLawrence also informed the Board that\n% could figure on the school's being\noccupied after the Christmas holidays.\nThe new school is an eight roomed\n\u00b0ne, and will accommodate all the\nPfaent number of pupils on the roll and\nmore- At least one new teacher will be\n\u00abWpd when the new school is oc-\nped, as owing to the rapid growth\n\u00ab \u00abe roll of scholars there will be need\nw more classes than the present staff\nI ? iour teachers can conveniently con-\nTemperance Gun Ready\nI hi ,v' \u00ab Wl Kerr-the eneWtic pastor\n,,      L'rSl Presl>yterian  church  an-\nE\"       intention of Preaching on\n0P ,7 evenin\u00ab otl ^e subject of Local\nPhiladelphia Wins\nThird\nwitria,'.t0 the 0P\u00abn>\u00bbt by\nPh\u00a3   ,,bring8 the new8 th\u00bbt\nJ\u2122*W\u00bbI\u00ab. won the third game\nI {\u2022world-, championship's\u2122\n1;     C\u00b0reof 12 t<> 5.

R. Grade Damaged\u2014Telegraph Line Dead.\nNews of wrecks and damages caused by\nthe big storm and high tide of Wednesday\nare just beginning to float down with the\ndebris. It was the greatest flood of the\nlower Skeena since white men have\nlived here, and those who experienced\nits terrors want no more. Port Essington, the late metropolis, was almost\ninundated. Families were driven from\ntheir homes and the streets are today\nhopelessly litteed with wreckage and\ndriftwood.\nThe big wind of Wednesday was from\nthe west, which is quite an irregular\nplace for the big winds to hail from\nand the high tide coming at the same\ntime filled' the lower Skeena with more\nsalt chuck than has been between its\ncliffs for many a day.\nAt Port Essington houses were carried\ntway, boat houses disappeared, boats\nfloated up on the streets, wharves were\ndamaged, sidewalks were ripped up\nand tree trunks four feet through were\npiled up on the streets. Part of Mr.\nFred Rudge's dwelling was carried\naway while he was in the house; Peter\nPollard had to move out in order to\nsave his life. His home is no more; two\nothers are gone; 150 feet of s'dewalk\nat the B.

At Kayex river\na boom of logs was piled up on the grade.\nThe Government telegraph line was\nput out of business in a dozen places\nand has since been dead.

Wm. Templeman Is Asked to\nExtend Board's Invitation to Dominion Commission on Thia Subject\nto Meet in This City.\n-~~~X\nOptimist Products\nOne of our small contemporaries\nfinds fault because the Optimist\nclaims to have specialists in charge\nof the various departments of its\nplant. The- complaint comes\nfrom a two-man shop. Just to\nimpress the point we repeat that\nthe Optimist has more plant,\nstock and material than any other\nshop in the north. It has the\nlargeit staff, the highest paid\nprinters, a pay roll that is half\nas large again as the total wage\nlist of all other printing shops in\nthe city; it produces more work\nthan all other printing plants in\nthe city combined. The quality\nof its product is unsurpassed by\nany shop on the coast, and the\nOptimist newspaper is admitted\nto be typographically the the best\nprinted paper in the province.\nOptimist products have the imprint of a community of brains.\nIts superiority leaves it without\na rival locally.\nt\u2014\nAt a recent meeting of the School\nBoard of Prince Rupert, D. G. Stewart\ndrew attention to the fact that the\nCommission on Technical Education\nappointed by the Dominion Government would be visiting several points\nin British Columbia during the months\nof November and December. He suggested that the Board should send an\ninvitation to the commissioners to hold\nat least one sitting at Prince Rupert.\nThis suggestion met with a favorable\nreception by the Board, and the secretary was instructed to write to the\nHon. Wm. Templeman and ask him\nto extend on behalf of the Board their\ninvitation to the commissioners to come\nto Prince Rupert.\nThis subject of technical education\nis a live one, and is receiving growing\nattention now in many parts of the\nDominion. The Dominion Government\nhave taken the matter up under theit\nTrade and Commerce department, and\nhave secured the co-operation of the\nProvincial Governemnt.\nThe importance to the boys and\ngrowing lads of the rising cities of\nCanada, of having the opportuntiy\ngiven them of perfecting their knowledge\nof technical matters, and gaining a\npractical insight into the details and\nprinciples of their calling as early as\npossible, cannot be over emphasized.\nUpon the basis of early technical training\nof their boys is being built up the commercial and industrial prosperity of\nthe go-ahead nations of the world today,\nand Canada will not be a lag-last in this\ndepartment of national progress.\nCertainly Prince Rupert, with that\nsplendid industrial and commercial future in front of her which is brought\nnearer by every rail laid hour by hour\non the transcontinental railway, will\nnot let slip any opportunity of keeping\nright in line with the march of progress,\nand just a little bit ahead.\nThe step taken by the Prince Rupert\nSchool Board is a live one and^ar-seeing.\nThe boys for whose benefit it is taken\ntoday will be the men of the Prince\nRupert of tomorrow\u2014that city of ringing\nrailway yards, and clanging engine\nshops, of busy wharves with thronging\nworkmen and clattering derricks, hurrying day and night to cope with the\never increasing commerce of the seas\u2014\nthe city of our devise, our aim, our\ncertainty.'\nKaien Ialand Dance\nThe first of a series of club dances\nwas held in the gymnasium of the Kaien\nIsland club last evening and proved a\ndelightful affair. The function was\nonly for club members and the popularity of the affair was most encouraging\nto the committee. Over one hundred\nwere in attendance and the floor was\nin splendid condition. The music, too,\nwas excellent and very favorably commented on. Refreshments were served\nduring the evening\nThe dance broke up about 1 a.m.,\nand the pleasant recollections of it will\ndoubtless result in many more club\nevenings during the season.

Rock\nShattered on Professor's Body Under   Will   Power   of    Citizen.\nThere was a hypnotic entertainment\nin Prince Rupert last night, one of the\nincidents of which stood out head and\nshould rs above the rest of the show,\nnot that the rest of the show was by any\nmeans uninterest ng, but merely because\nthe incident in question was in the\nnatu e of a contest. It was a figgt\u2014a\nbattle of wills, and he boys enjoyed\nit as well as if it had been a boxing\nmatch.\nIt happened suddenly and as a sur-\np ice. The professor had been going\nthrough some hypnotic expe iments\nwith \"subjects\" vounteered by the\naudience. The inevitable funny man\nhad g t on the stage and refusing to\nsubmit o the hypnotic influence fai ly,\nhad put in som- comical stunts of his\nown so effectively that he was gently\nrequested to retire as giggles disturb\nhypnotic experiments in tha early stages.\nThere had been an interval pleasingly\nfilled by the moving picture show.\nThen, lest there might be any feeling\nof scepticism in the audience, Professor\nHoyle announced his readiness to meet\nany one willing to investigate the\nsubject scientifically right there before\nthe whole audience.\nThere was a momentary pause, Then\nthe deep voice of a gentleman well-\nknown in Prince Rupert spoke from the\nrear of the theatre.\n\"On purely scientific grounds?\" he\nasked. (\nThe Professor assented, and the\ngentleman strode forward down the\naisle.\nA whisper ran round the audience,\n\"Gee!\" said someone, \"It's Archer.\nHe's keen on hypnotism. Now, we're\ngoing to see something!\"\nA moment more and the men were\nfacing each other on the stage. They\nlooked each other between the eyes\nlike duellists, sizing each other up.\nThey agreed to fight fair each with the\nweapon of his will power, clasped hands\nfor a second to seal the bargain, and\nmet in determined conflict.\nFirst it seemed as if the Professor\nwere gaining the upper hand. Then\nagain the local man seemed to have it.\nThe contestants gripped hands, and\nbroke apart again. The Professor\nfanned his brow with his handkerchief.\nThe local man seemed undisturbed.\nAgain they returned to the conflict.\nArcher's eyes gleamed.\nThe Professor staggered back.\n\"Do you admit that mine is the strong-\ne  will?\" demanded his opponent.\n\"Not yet!\" was the reply, and once\nmore they met eye to eye.\nThen at last the Professor wavered.\n\"Enough!\" he said and agreed to submit\nto h's opponent's will, and to give him\nall the assistance in -his power.\n$*ith a few rapid passes Archer put\nthe Professor under the hypnotic influence, and he became rigid as a bar\nof steel. With the help of two men he\nwas placed across the backs of two\nchairs. A rug was flung across his\nmiddle, and a-huge slab of rock torn\nby the force of dynamite out of the ribs\nof Prince Rupert was placed upon his\nbody.\nThen Archer produced a sledge hammer.\nCONTINUED ON PAGE   8\n THE    PRINCE    RUPERT    OPTIMIST\nTHE IROQUOIS\nPOOL\nEnglish and American Billiards\nEight Tables Centre Street\nWe have Beveral well located\nfour room cottages, some with\nbath, for rent at a reasonable\nfigure.

GUSTAVE BERGER\nPub. Sept. 7. John Dybhavn, Agent\nSCOTSMAN WHO WOULD BE\nKING   OF   C0C0S  ISLANDS\nJohn Sidney Clunies-Ross, is a figure\nas strangely romantic as was ever\npictured i y writers of the most lurid\nfiction. He is a well educated and\nwealthy gentleman, descended on one\nside from an aristrocratic Scotch family\nand on ^he other from Royal Maylay\nblood; but at home, in the Cocos\nIslands, he is monarch of all he surveys\nand he surveys a good deal.\nMr. Clunies-Ross, whose father died\na month or two ago, is the fourth of\nhis name to rule over the little group\nof coral islands in the Indian Ocean.\nThe story of his family is that of a man\nwho would be King who lived nearly\none hundred years ago.\nThe original Clunies-Ross bore the\nsame name as his great-grandson. He\nwas born in the Shetland islands whither\nhis family had fled, proscribed, after\nthe failure of the Jacobite risingup in\nthe early eighteenth century. It was\nadventurous fighting blood that warmed\nyoung John's veins and the Shetland\nislands were a narrow home for him\nso he obeyed the call of the sea and\nfared forth to make for fortune, which\nhe did in an extraordianry manner.\nIn the course of his roving he fell\nin with one Alexander Hare, a dissolute, imaginative, not over honest\nman, who had come under the spell\nof the East to the extent of adopting most of its vices. He was in disgrace with his emp overs and found\na change of residence imperative. In\nClunies-Ross he met a man as daring as himself, though honorable and\nstraight-living. He proposed that the\npair of them should seek out an uninhabited group of islands and live\nthereon like Oriental potentates.\nThe young Scotchman liked the\nidea, and the two proceeded to the\nCocos islands, 500 miles from other\nland, and established themselves, together with about 100 others. Hare\ntook a harem along with him and prepared to spend his days in riotous\nliving; Clunies-Ross took his lawful\nfamily, was satisfied with the primitive\nlife, and looked about for a chance to\ntrade.\nHe tried spices and coffee and failed.\nThen he pitched on cocoanuts as his\nbest investment, and planted great\ngroves of the trees. While thLy were\ngrowing he traded as best he could, and\na good many Malays, with a few whites,\nwere attracted to the islands. Hare tried\nto enslave the darker portion of the\npopulation with such ill-success that he\nwas forced to leave the island. He went\nto Singapore where he died not long\nafterwards, deserted by his harem and\n\"courtiers.\"\nThe cocoanuts grew and Clunies-\nRoss began to make money out of\nthe oil and various other products\nof Ross was recognized and welcomed\nthe trees. Trade prospered in other\ndirections also, and the island attracted\nmore inhabitants. The rule of Ross\nwas recognized and welcomed. He was\njust and kind and withal canny in matters\nof trading.\nThen John having ruled twenty-\nseven years, died in 1584. He was\nsucceeded by John George, his son.\nIn his time the territory was claimed\nunder British protection, but the change\nwas merely nominal. Nobody inter-\nferred with the absolute rule of John\nGeorge. He further strengthened his\nposition by marrying a Malay woman of\nroyal blood and fine character. Together\nthey developed the island and saw\njustice done.\nThe chief's six sons were all educated in Scotland for the cocoanuts\nwere bringing in a tidy sum. George\nwas the eldest son, and he studied\nengineering that his islands might have\nthe benefit of his skill. When he succeeded his father he devoted himself\nnot only to carrying on trade but in\nperfecting the native arts. He in turn\nmarried a native woman, who proved\nas worthy a helpmate as the wife og\nJohn George.\nThe islands suffered from cyclones\nbut the skill of the chief repaired all\ndamages, and soon the place was as\npropserous as ever. The inhabitants\neven attempted, but unsuccessfully, to\ncolonize another island, 500 miles away.\nThe island was unfortunately rich,\nand so many white men were attracted\nto the place that the colonists gave up\nin disgust and returned to their peaceful\nhome.\nLike his forebears George Culnies-\nRoss had many sons, all educated in\nEngland. He was in England with\nthem when he died, in June of this\nyear. His son, John Sidney succeeded\nto the kingship or whatever it may\nbe called, and the property.

Agent\nSTANLEY KETCHELL'S DEATH\nMAKES PAPKE CHAMPION\nThe death of Stanley Ketchell and\nthe passing away of this famous exponent\nof the fistic art, now gives Billy Papke,\nthe Illinois Thunderbolt, the undisputed\nright to the misddleweight championhip.\nThe passing of the \"Bengal\" will also\nseriously affect the plans of Hugh McIntosh, who had matched the deceased\nagainst Tom Thomas, and a number of\nthe pick of England's fighters.\nOf all American fighters who stepped\nthrough the ropes and performed in the\nsquared circle, Ketchell, through his\ngameness, ability and clever work won\nthe hearts of the fight fans of the entire western hemisphere. A fighter by\nnature, a cool-headed, daring two-handed mixer, Ketchell took a chance that\nfew men of his size cared to take, when\none year ago today he met the terrible\nJack Johnson and was defeated by the\nGalveston black in twelve rounds at\nthe Colma arena, San Francisco. Ketchell did something that few other fighters did with the black man, he put the\nbig ebony champion on the floor in the\ntwelfth round of this affair. But Ketchell was too small to go long with the\nbig fellow, and Johnson ended Ketchell's\nchampionship aspiration by putting him\nto sleep. Ever since that battle Ketchell\nhas been deteriorating, and though he\nfailed to gain the heavyweight title and\nwrest the championship from the son of\nHam, he was able to retain the middleweight belt.\nKetchell was still a young man, and\nat the time of his death was but twenty-\nthree years and two months of age. He\nwas born September 14, 1887, at Grand\nRapids, Michigan. His right name\nwas Stanislaus Kiechal, and his nationality a Polish-American, his father\nbeing a Pole by birth. Ketchell began\nfighting when but sixteen years of age,\nand the first affair in which he figured,\nof which any known record is maintained, was at Butte, Mont., where he\nknocked out Kid Tracy in one round\nFor several years the future champion\nfought around Butte, Helena, Miles City\nand various Montana towns. His first\nfight in California occurred March 23,\n1906, when he fought Mike McClure at\nRedding.\nKetchell's first fight of any prominence occurred in Marysville, California,\nJuly 4, 1907, when he went twenty\nrounds to a draw with Joe Thomas,\nthe welter weight champion of that time.\nKetchell met Thomas, Sept. 2, of,the\nsame year in San Francisco, and gained\nthe championship by putting Thomas\nout in twenty rounds. He met Thomas\nonce more in the Golden Gate city and\nwon on a decision in twenty rounds.\nTaking on weight Ketchell began\nmeeting such men as the Twins Sullivan, Billy Papke and Hugo Kelly. He\nmade a fool of Mike Twin by hanging\na stiff one on the baldheaded fighter\nin one round at Colma, Feb. 22. 1908,\nand disposed of the other twin, Jack, in\nthe same fashion, in twenty rounds at\nthe Colma arena, May 9, of the same\nyear. On June 4, of the same year,\nKetchell won on a decision from the\nIllinois Thunderbolt, \u25a0 Papke, in ten\nrounds at Milwaukee, and knocked out\nHugo Kelly, July 31, at the Mission\nstreet arena, San Francisco, after a\nshort battle of three rounds.\nKetchell met his first defeat on Labor\nDay of the same year, at Los Angeles,\nwhen Billy Papke put a sleep-producing\none over on the Michigander's jaw in\ntwelve rounds. A few months after this\naffair Ketchell retaliated, when , on Nov.\n26 of the same year, he put the Illinois\nThunderbolt out on the canvas in eleven\nrounds. In the following year, Ketchell\nwon fame and distinction by nearly\nmurdering \"Jack the Confessor\" O'Brien, when he met the self-proclaimed\nheavyweight champion of the world\nin a limited affair in New York City.\nOnly the bell in the tenth round saved\nO'Brien from the count, as the \"con-'\nfeasor\" was down on his hands and knees\nwhen the affair stopped. Only July 5,\nof last year, Ketchell established his\nright to the middleweight title by defeating Billy Papke in a tw \u2022 nty-round\naffair at Colma.\nConfident, because of his long string\nof victories, that he could do away with\nthe Galveston black, Johnson, Ketchell\nmet the present heavyweight at Colma,\none year ago today. The result is\nknown to all. Ketchell, catching the big\nfellow off his guard, put one over that\nmade the black go to the canvas, but\nJohnson, rising up, finished Ketchell.\nSince that time Ketchell has been going down the toboggan at a rapid pace\naccording to current rumors, and it is\nunderstood that he intended retiring\nfrom the ring and entering the vaudeville stage as a means of making a\nlivelihood. It is known that he was\nrecently fo ced to go back to his home\nto recuperate because of a physical\nbreakdowTi he suffered in New York,\nand it is thought that the terrible beating administered him by Johnson, combined with the fast life he has been\nreputed to have been living, has caused\nthis breakdown.\nBut the fact remains that Ketchell\nwas a fighter in every sense of the\nword, a ripping, slashing two-handed\npugilist who feared nothing, and who\nwent into every fight with the intention\nof winning. There was nothing crooked\nabout the man and though he made the\nfatal mistake of tackling the giant\nblack, it must be said that he had no\nyellow streak such as other fighters of\nthe present day and every fight won\nby Stanley Ketchell was won simply\nthrough great fighting ability.\nLeonard & Reid\nReal Estate Brokers\nP.O.

We take it as a certain\ncompliment that our contempora y deems us so interesti g a matter ier discussion,\nbut we wish to frankly ask the editor of the Empire to refrain from stating or\ninsinuating as truth that which is not fact. We are quite prepared to be charitable\nand to credit the Empire with no malevolence, but at the same time the fact remains\nthat the articles of the 19th and 21st were almost devoid of accuracy in so far as\nthey related to this paper.\nWe repeat, we desire to be charitable; nay, more, we go further and we would\nsay that we believe there is room for all the newspapers in this city, and we have\na disposition to quarrel with none of them. With the venom that may have been\npassed between the two journals in the past we have nothing to do. A part of it\nmay have been personal but whatever it was it is past and we shall not willingly\ncontinue it. It is our desire to be good natured; to be a prophet of good in this\ncity and in the land; to stand or everything that may go to make the West wholesome, happy and prosperous.\nAs far as relates to city affairs we shal do our utmost to back every enterprise,\nand every undertaking, and every policy that seems to us advantageous to the\ncommunity, and we hold ourselves in readiness to stand by every individual no\nmatter who, who seems to us to be fighting for a sane and honest principle. With\nthe present city council we have emphatically no alliance. Neither Mayor Stork,\nnor Alderman Pattullo, nor Alderman Hilditch, nor Alderman Mclntyre, nor\nAlderman Naden, nor Alderman Mobley, nor Alderman Lynch, nor Alderman\nSmith, nor Alderman Barrow need count upon the unwavering support of these\ncolumns. Perhaps they do not want it. Be that as it may, we shall not ask them\nbut from day to day we shall criticise or approve according to the light that is\nours.\nWe believe firmly that it is a curse to have politics in civic matters. If the\npresent municipal council have introduced party politics, they have betrayed their\ntrust and subverted the right principles of municipal government. We do not\nagree that M. M. Stephens and H. H. Clarke were knifed by Liberals. Our recollection is that.except the top two and the bottom two, the aldermen ran failry\nwell in a bunch. Someone had to be beaten. Naden and Stephens had a neck\nand neck race of it; Clarke was away and took very little part of a campaign where\nthe electorate was entirely new. We see no political significance in their defeat\nwhatever. But that, too, is past, and we would simply say now that we believe\nfirmly in forgetting party politics in municipal affairs. The responsibility for\nforgetting is upon the outstanding men on both sides; on both sides and not on\none side for if one side will not forget the other side must remember.\nWith regard to the politics of this paper, perhaps the majority of the shareholders may decide to employ an editor of Conservative leanings; perhaps the\nopposite; or perhaps the editor may be one of the increasing number of those\nmodern individuals who believe that inalienable adherence to party is a mistake\nand pernicious. Time will show our views, and as issues from time to time arise\nwe trust our editorial brains will find for us a clear, broad, progressive view for\nwhich to stand. The brains may change; they may err; but .we trust our errors\nmay be forgiven. We shall try to keep our temper sweet, our purpose honest and\nour vision clear.\nFinally, we do not think that anything is gained by vindictive-editors tossing\nsplenetic ink at each other. We do not think the public find it interesting, and we\nthink our columns can be filled to better advantage. We wish our brothers in the\nfraternity very well.\nAMENDMENTS TO MINING ACT\nIt will be noticed that our member of parliament, Minister Templeman, is\nannounced to introduce a bill in the coming session of parlaiment for the better\nprotection of mine workers. The scope of the bill is believed to be practically\nconfined to safeguards in the handling of explosives, but it undoubtedly will or\nshould embrace all possible-safeguards to human life as well. A correspondent\npoints out that our member has possibly in view the great mines of the south of\nthe province, yet that it will not be very long before the largest producing mines\nwill be in the north and that they also should be taken into consideration. In this\nconnection he draws attention to the superiority of telephones in deep workings\nas a means of giving warnings on emergency and thus acting as a valuable life\nsaver.\nTelephone men say that within the next ten years every mine of importance\nwill be equipped with intercommunicating systems. Following the disaster at\nCherry, the Illinois legislature passed a law requiring the installation of telephone\nsystems in mines as a life-saving, precautionary measure, and the value of the law\nhas been such that other states and mine owners are likely to fall in line.\nTen years ago some mine owners did put in telephone systems, but they speedily\nwere proved useless on account of the atmospheric conditions, the dampness, the\ngases and the corrosive acids let loose by blasting and digging. These bit into\nthe wires and the phones and put the lines out of commission in a comparatively\nshort time. After that little effort was made for several years to rig up any communicating system other than speaking tubes.\nThe apparatus manufacturers were too busy meeting the demands of the above\nground fields to study the need of mines, and not until within the last year has there\nbeen any special effort to contrive apparatus that would overcome the difficulties.\nIt is now believed that the former defects of a telephone system for mines has been\nremedied.\nRead The   Optimist\nARE YOU IN NEED OF HELP ?

Orders for good positions are pouring in,\nand some seats have already been sold\nfor $50 apiece. Office rents along the\nroute have jumped amazingly, and several new buildings are being rushed to\ncompletion.\nNeedless to say, it is not the Britisher upon whom these enterprising\nagents depend for emormous prices,\nand many homeward bound Amerivans\narranged for seats before sailing. Orders are coming from every branch\nof the Empire, New Zealand, Australia,\nIndia, and South Africa being represented among the orders received by\none  agent.\nA big feature of .the coronation will\nbe the monster exhibition showing the\ngrowth of England and her colonies\nduring King Edward's reign. Her peoples and their handiwork will be shown\nand the exhibition is planned to demonstrate the power and infinite resources\nof the British Empire.\n\"THE CANADIAN SEA\"'\nName of Hudson Bay to Be; Changed\nfor Better Title\nOttawa, Oct. 16.\u2014There is a prospeft\nthat the name of Hudson Bay will be\nchanged for something more appropriate. Obviously the present name\nis not appropriate for it is not a bay\nat all, but a sea, and the third largest\nsea at that. A few of the Western\npapers have united in calling it the\n\"Canadian Mediterranean.\" Others regard this as cumbersome and lacking\nin initiative and suggest that the title\ngiven it some years ago by Mr. W. F.\nMcLean, M. P., \"The Canadian Sea,\"\nis much more suitable, more dignified,\nand more distinctive.\nNow that all danger of its passing\nfrom the exclusive control of Candaa\nhas been removed by the recent decision at The Hague, and an era of\nprosperity seems to be dawning for\nthese northern waters, the time may\nbe opportune to dignify it by the name\n\"The Canadian Sea.\"\nSee the flickerless motion ' pictures\u2014\nthe silent drama\u2014aAhe Phenix theatre.\n*1\u00ab     Albion\nN   Bottling\nCo.\nManufacturers of\nSodawater, Syiups, Mineral Water, etc.'\nWholesale Dealers in\nSweet Wines, Beer, Cider & Cigars\nT.

D. Mann and associates take it over,\nis to invade the Arctic ocean. A whaling\nstation similar to that at Kyuquot is\nto be built at the mouth of the Mackenzie\nriver, says the Colonist, and two of the\nfive new whaling steamers being built\nat Christiana, Norway, are to steam to\nthe Arctic to make their base at the\nnew Mackenzie river station. The\nthree others will be added to the fleet\nof five already engaged from the British Columbia whaling stations, to which\nanother will be added. This will be\nlocated in the vicinity of Prince Rupert.\nThe whaling in the Arctic has heretofore been carried on by San Francisco whalers, outfitted for cruises lasting several years, and the sending of\nthe two steam whalers to work from\na shore station will make a new departure in the Arctic ocean whaling\nindustry.\nThe five steam whalers being constructed by the Norwegian builders will\nnot be sent out in sections as was the\nsteamer William Grant, the last vessel\nbrought from Norway. The fleet will\nbe completed in Norway and will steam\naround South America by way of the\nStrait of Magellan to Victoria. Three\nwill start first in a small fleet, coming\nout together, and the two others, built\nfor the work in the Arctic, will come\nout at a later date.\nWhen the new stations near Prince\nRupert and at the mouth of the Mackenzie river have been established, the\ncompany will have five whaling stations, from each one of which two\nsteam whalers will, be operated. On\nthe west coast of Vancouver Island are\ntwo stations at Sechart and Kyuquot,\nand a third station is on Kunghit Is.\nland, southernmost of the Queen Charlotte group. The Prince Rupert and\nMackenzie river stations are to be located in the spring and it is expected\nthe work in the Arctic will commence\nnext summer.\nThe Saving Habit\nis the foundation of Independence.

This will be four weeks of work\nbefore Christmas holidays, or sufficient\ntime to clear off preliminary business,\norganize committees and get everything\nin complete running order.\nThe estimates are at present in\ncourse of preparation in all departments and it is anticipated that Hon.\nW. S. Fielding will be able to lay the\nmain estimates and public accounts on\nthe table shortly after parliament\nopens. This will give the house something to do from the start.\nSo far as one can judge at the present\ntime, the legislative program is not\nlikely to be as heavy as it was last session when the naval, insurance and anti-\ngambling bills in themselves constituted\na heavy sessional program which compelled the house to leave over a number\nof bills until this session, including a bill\nto revise the banking act. This legislation which provides for a regular decennial revision of the banking laws,\nwas not actually introduced so that the\nintention of the government was not\nrevealed. It is probable that when it\nis introduced this session it will be\nfound to provide for some measure of\ngovernment inspection of banking institutions.\nHon. Mr. Templeman will have for\nconsideration of the house a bill to provide safeguards in connection with the\nmanufacture of explosives. This matter has become important, owing to\nthe large nujmber of serious calamities\nwhich have occurred as' a result of explosions in factories where powder,\nand other high explosives are manufactured.

But in this\ngeneration the passion has developed\ninto a craze to get away from the beaten\npaths of Continental Europe and to be\nable to boast of having traversed the\nremotest corners of the earth and its\ntrackless wilds,\nThis modest brochure shows them a\ncountry so absolutely new they may be\nthe first to brush the dew of the dawn of\nCreation from it. The prate has been\nof visiting countries interesting for\ntheir ruined records of a bygone civilization; this shows them a section of a\npopulous continent where they can look\nupon the earth as it lay at the sources\nof Time, with a history antedating the\nmost primeval records of civilization\nwritten on its massive rocks.\nThere\" is little doubt this will serve\nto startle tourist travel in this new direction. Furthermore it is one of many\nsuch attractive publications the Grand\nTrunk Pacific has in view for the effecting of the same purpose. The Optimist\npublished at the time the starting out\nof the Charlton exploration party last\nJuly, for a trip from Edmonton to\nPrince Rupert, the party consisting of\ntalented writers, artists and photographers. Mr. Charlton, general advertising agent of the company, turned\nback at Tete Jaune Cache, and this\npamphlet has been produced since.\nMr. Lett, colonization agent, Home\nRussell, the artist, Fred Talbot the\nEnglish magazine writer and others\ncompleted the trip to this city as has\nbeen told in these columns.\nSo this little book is the first of a series\nbound to turn the tourist travel in this\ndirection and incidentally assist in the\nbuilding up \u2022 of Prince Rupert. Tete\nJaune Cache, the locality of which this\ntreats, is on this side of the Rockies,\nand it is officially stated in the book that\nit is expected steel will reach Yellowstone\nPass near the close of this year, so that\nwhile the railway will not be completed\nnext summer it is reasonable to presume\nconveniences will be provided for these\nwealthy tourists to reach the end of\nsteel being laid out of Prince Rupert\nand continue their tour from this por'\nof growing fame.\nSAMUEL HARRISON\nV.F.G.

In the immediate foreground at the foot of these\nmountains are falls higher than Niagara\nand more picturesquely beautiful. Another view is called \"The Valley of a\nThousand Falls,\" and in describing\nthis the Rev. C. B. R. Kinney, of the\nAlpine Club of Canada, writes:\n\"Following the trail of the beaver and\ngoatj^and cariboo above the lake, and\nclimbimg the huge terminal moraine of\nan ancient glacier through which the\nriver had ploughed its mad way, I came\nto that most enchanting spot that I\nnamed by right of discovery \"The\nValley of a Thousand Falls.\" A great\nwall of perpendicular cliffs, thousands\nof feet high, hem the valley in on every\nside. Here and there on sheltered\nledges patches of spruce relieve, with\ntheir dark greens, the greys of the\nrocks; while everywhere the numerous\nstreams from the great glaciers all\naround plunge over the high precipices\nin countless falls of spray. A mighty\ntongue of ice lolls over a cliff at the head\nof the valley and curves so low as to\nreach the valley floor; while here and\nthere in the bottom of the valley are\nhuge spring? from which flow full-\nfledged streams. A high up glacier on\nthe west has such a large field of snow\nat its source and flows down so steep\nan in line, that huge chunks of ice are\nconstantly breaking off its precipitous\nfront and crashing into the valley below.\nThe most fearful avalanche I ever saw\ncame form this glacier and took ten\nminutes by my watch for the foremost\nchunks of ice to reach the valley below.\n\"At the -head of the valley and to\nthe north rises Mount Turner, a splendid\npeak of some twelve thousand feet\naltitude, while to the right, at an altitude\nof between two and three thousand\nfeet above the valley the Grand Forks,\nswift flowing from Berg Lake, leaps\nfrom the cliff and forms a superb falls\nas high as a Niaraga, then plunges\nin a number of beautiful cataracts\ndown a narrow gorge till it sweeps\nacross the floor of the valley. And\nfrom the Goat trail, which winds in and\nout among the overhanging cliffs, truly\nthe \"Valley of a Thousand Falls\" is a\nmarvel of Alpine scenery.\"\nIn the second part of the booklet\ndevoted to \"Canada's New National\nPlayground,\" the Jasper Park Reserve\nof five thousand square miles there\nis a double page illustration of the\nFish Lake and the Fiddle Back ange.\nAll the photographs have been toned\nand stippled and shaded and retouched\nto the finest degree of real art, but in\nthis one particularly is shown the contrast of effect, the contrast of what is\npowerful and menacing with what\nis safe and peaceful. And of this never\nfailing source of our pleasures and\nemotions the description goes on:\n\"Away beyond the magnificent jasper\nportals of the charming Athabaska Pass,\nthrough which the Grand Trunk Pacific\nrailway traverses the Rovky Mountains,\nlies a .vast, wild, unsubdued Alpine\nwonderland, rich in peerless scenic\ngrandeur, and w.'ld regions hallowed by\nhistory, by Indian legend and by the\nromance of the picturesque voyageurs,\ntbe coureurs du bois and the pathfinders\nof the fur trade, who builded the foundations of an empire under the setting\nsun. This is a glorious heritage of the\nCanadian people which the Grand Trunk\nPacific is developing, and which is a\nprecious, if not as plentiful in corn and\nmilk, as the rich plains which stretch\naway for a thousand miles eastward\nfrom those rugged, mighty bulwarks\nof the western hemisphere. It is a\nheritage which has not and never can\nbe alienated, as it has been vested for\never in the name of the nation as the\nJasper National Park\u2014an illimitable\nsanctuary for the work-a-day world, far\nfrom the strife and bustle of the market\nplace, and in contact with nature, peaceful, pure and undefiled.\"\nWith such glowing words does the\nwriter embellish and assist the work of\nthe artist in showing that in this national reserve there is every diversity of\nnatural features to delight and gratify\nthe mountaineer or the explorer, or\ninterest and vivify the tourist. And\nof the lakes and tarns \"reposing in\ntheir mountain privacy like mirrors\nset in emerald,\" the impressive solitudes,\nthe turbulent torrents brawling down\nfrom the frozen torpitude of their glacial\nsources, the sublime vistas and so on\nare so vividly described that the mere\nfirst reading of the booklet cannot fail\nto bring on severe attacks of wanderlust\nand startle people hearing \"The Call of\nthe Wild\" in the silent watches of the\nnight.\nBut when this series of booklets\nreaches the Skeena river, then we of\nPrince Rupert shall be more keenly\ninterested. Wondrous in its descriptive\nart as this is,-that devoted to our own\nnoble river we must expect to surpass\nit in every respect. For the' whole\nparty engaged in this work, artists,\nwriters, explorers one and all, vowed and\ndeclared, while here but a few weeks\nback, that for glorious scenery the\nSkeena leads the world.\nAnd as this whole section can now be\nreached both by rail and stearmer, one\nmay reasonably hope that the early\nexploitation by the company of its\nscenic beauties, will prove Prince Ru:\npert's hotel accommodations totally\ninadequate to meet the requirements\nof next summer's tourists.\nTry the Sunday dinner at the Savoy.\nLAND PURCHASE NOTICE\nSkeana Land Diatrict\u2014District ot Caaaiar\nTake notiee that  William  Currie of Seattle,\nWaah., U.

The\nProfessor lay like a dead man.\n\"Wait,\" cried Archer.' \"How many\nblows shall be struck?\"\n\"Not any, please!'\" the shrill voice\nof a woman cried from the audience,\nbut other voices shouted \"One!\" \"Two!\"\nand \"Four.\"\n\"Four then!\" said Archer, and the\nhammer came down with a crash on the\nstone. Once, twice, thrice it fell, and\nthe splintered rock flew. The professor\nlay still and rigid, unheeding.\nThe fourth blow came down like a\nsteam hammer and the rock crumbled\nto fragments beneath it. Quickly the\ninert \"subject\" was raised to his feet.\nA few more passes and the words \"All\nright!\" and there stood Professor Hoyle\nsmilingly himself again with the crumbled rock broken upon his body lying\nat his feet.\nHe shook hands with his opponent,\nArcher, who thereupon agreed to summit himself tonight to the Professor's\ninfluence for further experiments in\nthe science they both study.\nA series of amusing hypnotic \"suggestion\" exhibitions followed under Professor Hoyle's control, and the large\naudience dispersed intensely mystified\nand well satisfied.\nr\nI\nTry the Sunday dinner at the Savoy.\nEvery girl thinks she could love as\nno other girl ever loved if she could only\nmeet the right man.\nWhen a married woman mysteriously\ndisappears people wonder whether he\nran away with a woman or from one.\nAlex.
