A form of aurora\nthat is very rureiy i.een but which when\nviewed can never be forgotten, iB when the\ni ays appear to hunt; fr in * he sky like fringes\nuu thu fulda if a mantle. The ordinary\nL*\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDj'iis of the northern lights is a pale greenish yellow, but crimson, violet and steel\ncolor are not uncommon.\nCrimson auroras - such as that of Thursday night\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDhave often heen imagined by\nthe auperatitious to be omens of war, pestilence and famine, and many queer instances\nare given of the effects of the lights upon\nour ancient forbears.\nIn Shetland and in the north of Scotland\nthe auroras are known as the \"merry\ndancers,\" evidently from the constant shifting of the peculiar appeal ing lights. Iu Ceylon, where these lights, strange aa it\nmay aeem, have appeared, they are termed\nthe Buddha lights, whilst in the first recorded appearance of I hose phenomena in\nLondon in the year 1560, they were alluded\nto as \"Burning Spears.\"\nThe aurora seems to vary iu heiglit, and\nn low latitudes is at such an ain uilu that\nthe sounds reported by Arctic explorers as\naccompanying its appearance, are not dia-\ncerniMe. The average height estimated by\nscientists varied from 50 to over 100 miles.\nI* lias been seen occasionally in the day\nline -iverul records having bee a made of\nthe f .ut, though the diurnal appearances\nhave been very rare.\nThe onuses of the magnificent northern\nlights seen in the winter time at different\nparts of the globe have not been positively\ndecided yet, though aeveral theories have\nbeen advanced as to their origin.\nOne writer considers the aurora formed\nby storm clouds which instead of bursting\ninto thunder had been drawn in in ih \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD upper\npartB of lhe atmospheu and the vapor\ni crysiulliz-il into tiny prisms by the\niutense cold; the electricity having\nb*?coiie luminous in flowing over\ntheir icy p-.nicies. Electric currents have\nbeen superinduced in telegraph wires, and\nthough transient in many cases, have been\npnwerfu*\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDcaused by the electricity in the\natmosphere during the appearance of an\nAurora borealis.\nFrom the different investigations and observations made by scientists into the causes\nof this beautiful natural phenomenon, it haa\nbeen generally conceeded that the lights\nand movements are caused by the actions of\nboth electric ..nd magnetic influences combined together. It haa beeu often noticed\nin connection with the Northern Lights, tho\nappearance of a dark bank of cloud below\nthe archea,and usually just above the northern horizon, of so thin a character, stars can\nbe seen through it, thia is variously con*\nsidered to be a part and pr.rcel of the phenomenon, though also may be often attributed to the natural hazy oondition of ths\nsky giving it an appearance of being oloudy.\n*\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD -. nan aim . b. c, Saturday, febkuari 24,1894.\nTELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY.\nSilver was quoted at 27J in London yesterday.\nThe rumor that the Holy Office had issued\na decree from Rome to condemn the doctrine of Henry George, is without foundation.\nWm. Waldorf Astor has subscribed by\ncable from London $10,000 to the mayor's\nfund for the relief of the unemployed in\nNew York. v\nDr. Eugene West, convicted of murder by\nmalpractice of Addie Gilmour, was yesterday at San Francisco sentenced to 25 years'\nimprisonment in,the penitentiary.\nThe Spanish consul at New York sent\nback to Havana on Wednesday, 27 immigrants who had been deceived into coming\nto thiB country by the false representation\nof an immigration agent.\nThe New York Herald's Panama, speoial\nsays: It is aaid here that M Mange, agent\nfor the liquidator of the Panama Canal Co.,\nwill assume the euperintendency of ibe\nPanama roilway, in place of Mr. Rivers, on\nMarch 1. Panama and Colon will gain\nmuch by the change.\nThe anarchist named Bourdin was buried\nyeaterday in London. The funeral was attended by a large crowd. There were no\nsigns of any disturbance until the hearse\nreached Marylebone road, when someone\nhoisted a red flag. Thia waa a signal for an\noutcry, but the police charged on the crowd\nscattering it in all directions, and tearing\ndown the objectionable flag. At the cemetery Anarchiat Quinn attempted to deliver\nan oration, but waa seized by the police and\nhustled outside the gates of the cemetry.\nAs Grayson Brown and his bride of a\nweek were travelling along a mountain road\nin Lowns county, Georgia, two men stopped\nthem and with revolvers compelled the\nbridegroom to stand by while they compelled his wife to submit t'o them. They\nleft and threatened death if they were informed upon. Next day Agnew Burrows\nand John Thompson were arrested, but\nwhile they were being taken across a creek\nthey leaped into the stream and escaped by\nswimming. Mrs. Brown was one of the\nprettiest girls of the aection and when the\ncrime became known the people ot the\ncounty organized for lynching. They are\nstill scouring the mountains for the men.\nThe Pall Mall Gazette, commenting on\nBenham's action in protecting the British\nship Naemith while obtaining a supply of\nwater in the harbor of Rio, saya it is difficult to underatand why the British fleet is\nat Rio if not to protect British interests.\nThe St. James Gazette says surely Lord\nRoseberry does not equieace in the doctrine\nthat the sole right ot iutervention belongs\nto the Uuited States, und adds, it is humiliating in the extreme tn think that British\nsailors had to seek American protection.\nThe Globe is curious, and says Benham is\ndoubtless ut liberty io hully the insurgents,\nbut it iB quite a different thing from offering\na most injurious insult io the British navy,\nit should be the duty of the British Government tn demand an immediate apology from\ntbe United States for the extraordinary conduct of its officers.\nTwo well known travelling passenger\nagents had an exciting time at Niagara Falls\nJohn E. Burke, of the Louisville and Nashville, and William Killogar, of the Chioago,\nMilwaukee k St. Paul, were in the city on\nbusiness. In company with local passenger\nagent B D. Denniaon, of the New York\nCentral, they viaited the ice bridge. The\nparty climbed the ice mountain,\nand while on the brink, Burke'a hat\nwaa blown off, and began to roll down\nthe ice on the aide of the mountain towards the American Fulls, Burke, without thinking of hia danger, dropped down\non hia stomach to lean over and secure the\nhat. He began to slip down the aide of the\nice mountain towards the whirling water\nand certain death. He shouted \"help\nme!\" and Kelly, leaning over, caught him\nby the foot. The ice was slippery aud Kelly\nlost bia footing and he too began to slip.\nDennison, who is a big, powerful man,\ngrabbed Kelly's legs, and thus tlfe three\nformed a loop over the top of the mountain.\nBurke ahouted, \"for QoiI'h sake don't let\ngo!\" Denniaon managed to ge Kelly o\er\nto hia side of tbe mountain and then pulled\nBurke up. He brought li s hat with him.\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\nSchool of Penmanship.\nThe young man with a bad handwriting\nwho seeks employment among business men\nfinds there is no demand for his awkwardness at any price. Everyone who uses a\npen should write legibly and attractively.\nThere is no excuse in these days for a young\nperson to write in a slovenly manner. This\nshould be left to those of a past gen-ration,\nwho were educ tted before the daya of business training schools. Here all of ordinary\nintelligence and application can acquire a\ngood business handwriting, the value of\nwhich is not easy to compute.\nThe Nanaimo Business College has a\nspecial department of penmanship, at the\nhead of which is Mr. J. R. Denneny, who\niB acknowledged to be not only one of the\nfinest penman in the world, but one of the\nbeat teachers and developers of good pen\nmanship in others.\n18-2 lm Odd FELLOWS' Block, Nanaimo\nSTANLEY HOUSE STORE TALK\nPLUMS FOR\nBARGAIN\nHUNTERS\nThey Are Dropping Your Way.\nWILL YOU HAVE THEM?\nThis column of to-day's Store News is brim full of\nfacts that appeal to bargains that\n.

Box 284.\n- 48.\nSATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1894.\nSEALING IN BEHRING SEA.\nPersons interested in sealing in Behring\nSea or intending to engage in the business\nwill do well to read the lentrthy dispatch\nfrom Washington published in our issue of\nyesterday. The dispatch gives a synopsis\nof the bill introduced in the House of Representatives of the American Congress by\nMr. McCreary, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, on the subject of\nsealing in Behring Sea by American citizens.\nThe bill is designed to carry into effect the\naward rendered by the Tribunal of Arbitration at Paris under tbe treaty to that end\nbetween Great Britain and the United States\nwhich was concluded at Washington in\nFebruary of last year. Similar legislation\nwill also no doub'. at once be introduced in\nthe Imperial Purlin ment by the British\nGovernment, and will, we think, also be\nconcurred in by the Dominion Government at\nOttawa by legislation of alike sort introduced in the Dominion Parliament at its\nnext session. This c mcurrent legislation\ntrill of course be binding on Canadians as\nwell as Americans, hence its special interest\nto the people of this Province, and to all\nCanadians and Britiah subjects everywhere.\nThe provisions of the McCreary Act are to\nbecome operative when tbe President of the\nUnited States shall by proclamation announce that the British Government has\nadopted the measures necessary to give\neffect to the regulations agreed upon by the\nTribunal of Arbitration at Paris. We need\nnot here give a synopsis of the McCreary\nAct. That has already been done sufficiently\nin the dispatch which we published yesterday, and to it we refer our readers for details. It ought to be studied by every\nmaster of a ship engaged in the sealing business, and by the owners also.\nto reply to Mr. Kitchen at all. The Premier in his reply to Mr. Forster'. rambling\nremarks, briefly explained, that he had not\nargued, as that gentleman seemed to imagine\nagainst Government control of railways,\nagainst the building of them by the Government, or against the establishment of such\nenterprises with public money. The Speaker seeing no one else rising called three\ntimes, \"are you ready for the questionT'and\nrang the division bell. Mr. Brown, as\nthough arroused from a comfortable nap,\nthen innocently asked the Speaker, \"Did\nyou ring the bell?\" and on receiving an affirmative answer, at once sat down. Mr.\nBeaven then got upon his feet and protested\ntbat when a resolution of want of confidence, such as was moved by Mr. Kitohen,\nwas presented, the Government Bhould\nmake soms sort of reply. Hon. Mr. Davie\nremarked that there was nothing to reply\nto. Mr. Beaven who was still not satisfied\nblamed the Sneaker for not allowing the\nGovernment the courtesy of a reply. The\nSpeaker said, amid the laughter and applause of tbe House, that they had not complained. Mr, Beaven then proceeded to\ncomplain on his own account, saying that he\nhad intended to address the House, but had\nwaited for the explanation which tbe Government should make when a motion of\ncensure was offered. Mr. Beaven continuing to grumble, the Speaker asked what the\nhon. gentleman was speaking to, and pronounced the discussion closed. The motion\nwas then put and lost on a division of ten to\ntwenty-one. Such are the tactics of the opposition and their method of conducting a\ndebate. It is in faot simply a wasting of\nthe time of the House, offering motions\nwhioh they cannot support by argument,\nand them grumbling ad libitum.\nOPPOSITION TACTICS.\nHon. Mr. Beaven, the leader of the Opposition, some time ago made the extravagant and croaking statement thai the con-\nvertion of $1,700,000 s.x and four and one-\nhalf per cent, bonds into three per cents\nwould cost the Province upwards of $600,-\nO00, that is, that more than one third of the\ntotal amount would be wasted in the operation. On Wednesday afternoon last Hon.\nMr. Turner, the Minister of Finance, came\nto the Legislative Assembly prepared to\ngo into the question. He asked leave to\nexplain the subject of the conversion of the\nbonds,which appeared to have been so much\nmisunderstood. But Mr. Beaven objected\non the ground that such an explanation was\nout of order and should not be allowed,\noth er wise every member who was misunderstood or misrepresented could claim the\nright to speak. Hon. Mr. Davie argued\nthat the Minister of Finance had a right to\nspeak first on the motion to adjourn the debate, and in the second place because it was\nasserted by the Upposition that he had\nfailed to make an explanation of the matter.\nMr. Beaven, however, still objected that\nthe explsna Inn of the Finance Miniater was\nnot in oril* i . n*i th\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Sp- ker decided the\n.point in ln\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD fawn-. I* he c appears that\nthe leader uf '.he Oppsoilion took advantage of a technical rule of debate\nto prevent the explanation of\na matter in which the oountry at large is\ninterested, and which is either not understood or else is deliberately misrepresented\nby the Opposition. Hon. Mr. Turner is\ntherefore clearly justified in claiming tbat\ntbe Opposition do not want an explanation,\nperhaps on the ground suggested by the\nPremier that they wished the falsehood told\nby their leader to get a good start before\nthe truth could be made known by the man\nbest informed on the subject. This is a fine\nexample of Opposition tactics, but we think\nthe public at large will concur with us in\nsaying that it is not altogether to their\ncredit.\nAnother matter which does not redound\nmuch to the credit of the Opposition is the\nway they managed the debate on Mr.\nKitchen's voluminous want of confidence\nmotion. The hon. gentleman was not able\nto support hia motion with anything that\nbore even a resemblance to argument, and\nMr. Foster, his seconder, was if possible\nstill more feeble and irrelevant. Mr. Foster's speech was simply a rambling disquisition on single tax, state sooialism, and\nmatters of that sort. The member* of the\nadministration did not think it worth while\nMb. Kkitii has again made himself the\nlaughingstock of theHouse by comparing Mr.\nBeaven to the archangel Gabriel. The last\ntime he had occasion to belaud the leader of\nthe Opposition he said his face shone like\nthe face of Moses when he descended from\nthe mount. Mr. Knith ought really to\nhave some mercy on his leader and not make\nhim as ridiculous as he makes himself. Mr.\nBeaven, who is not exactly a fool, must be\nthoroughly ashamed of his admirer and his\nabsurd oomparisons of him to celestial per*\nsonages.\nINSURANCE\nREAL ESTATE\nMARCUS WOLFE \"\n.E'liT-A.nsroiA.ri __-_? obneeal oommtssion brokeb\nRoom il, Johnston Slock, Commercial Street, Nanaimo, B.C.\nThe Yearly Renewable Plan of Life Insurance\nOf the Great West Company is the Latest Plan Issued.\n-*?__-_- -A.S TOTJ O-O.\nProvides in this plan low cost insurance for those who desire insurance without investment.\nThe Great West, although only two years in business, has in force.

If a man were to put a tin box\nunder his arm and proceed to wulk along\none of the streets of the city, he would be\ninstantly arrested by a squad of frightened\npolicemen and relieved of his box. The\nlatter would be carried off gingerly and\nwith the utmost oare to be examined by a\npublic analyst, and the man himself would\nbe marched off to prison, till it was ascertained what his box contained. In point of\nfact the anarchists are making themselves\npublic nuisanoes all over Europe, and if\nthey go on as they are doing will not only\nmake themselves and their principles universally abhorred\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDthey are so already by all\nbut the lowest, most ignorant, and lawless\nclasses\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDbut they will force all civilized\nGovernments to outlaw the whole faotion.\nThe British Government will no doubt be\nthe last to do so, but public opinion will in\nthe end force Mr. Gladstone and his colleagues to take positive and energetic action\nagainst them, and to ask Parliament for\npower to drive them out of England and\nkeep them out. Indeed thit is what ought\nto be done, without any more delay.\nThk Spanish Americans, to all appearance, -would not be happy without a civil\nwar of some sort to keep them umused.\nThe little Central American states of Nicaragua and Honduras are now at it hammer\nand tongs, but fortunately or otherwise\nthere does not seem to be many lives lost.\nThe other day a great battle took place on\nthe river Wauko, wherever that may be,\nbetween the troops of Nicaragua and those\nof Honduras. The battle, it is reported,\nwas a hot one for a Central Amerioan fight.\nJust four persons were killed, one of whom\nwas an American, who with other Americans was helping the Nicaraguans.\nThe Honduras battalians, it appears, were defeated. This Central\nAmerican squabble seems if possible to be\neven more absurd and redioulous than the\nBrazilian war. The American government\nshould send a little sticking plaster to both\nthe hostiie armies, and advise them to go\nhome and keep as cool as the wetther, which\nie always hot down there, the moaquitos,\nand the fleas will permit them. If the\nBritish or Canadians were to do so it might\nbe construed by the Yankees into a breaoh\nof the Monroe doctrine, and might lead to\nthe spoiling of much paper and the shedding\nof much ink in diplomatic correspondence,\nbefore the affair oould be properly\nsettled.\n* TO CONTRACTORS.\nSEALED TENDERS, endorsed 'Tender,\" will bs\nreceived by the Honourable the Chief Commissioner of Lands and Works up to 4 o'olook, p.m.. of\nTuesday, 8th March next, for the motion of a Provincial Home for Aged Persons at Kamloops.\nPlans and Sptclfl'atlons oan be seen, and forms of\ntender obtained, at the office of R.

They always carried I he record\nof his life, well-thumbed and beautifully\nunbound, in their pockets, and recently determined to imitate his exploits. But they\nfound the reality very different from the\nromance. Instead of riding away on a cyclone with the four purses and six silk handkerchiefs whioh they had stolen from shops\nnear Highgate Archway, they found\nthemselves before an officer of the police\nstation, who calmly said, \"take down your\npants.\" It was a trying moment for the\ntwo followers of the dashing Kit. The idea\nof such an indignity had never arisen. But\nthey took them down, and only appreciated\nwhat the afteimath of a cyclone really\nmeant when they attempted to sit down\nafter the laat of the six strokes had been ad.\nministered. Stanmers was then allowed to\ngo home, with mind and epidermis thoroughly disillusionised; but Baker was\nordered by the magistrate at the North\nLondon police court to think for a month\nover his follies in gaol. In addition to the\nlife of Kit he had in his pocket a sensational\nstory called \"The Locked Valley.\" He is\nnow in it in reality.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD London Daily Telegraph.\nm\nWelsh Mines and the Contracting Ont\nClause.\nAt a meeting at Cardiff yesterday of the\ndelegates of the South Wales and Monmouthshire Miners' Federation, it was deoided to hold a joint conference of the\nmembers of the Sliding Scale Aaaociation\nand the Federation for the purpose of considering the question of amalgamation, and\nalso that of keeping up the present standard\nof wages.

On Feb. 5 some men stole the\nsteel wire rope from the drum of the Puget\nSound Iron Mining Co., and a large canoe\nfrom the miners on the island. After this\nthey stripped a sloop lying in Blubber Bay,\nchopping down the mast and stripping it of\nall ropes, bloeks and tackle. Upon observing the robbery, four men from the Lime\nKiln, gave chase in a boat and after a pur\nsuit of nearly 20 miles, they had to give it\nup when within 1$ miles off. The sloop,\nhowever, outsailed the boat, and the latter\nhaving no provisions, the ohasers had to\ngive up the pursuit. On their return they\nreported the matter to Mr. Manson, J. P.,\nwhom they saw ou the ss. Comox. It is believed that some of the hand loggers are the\naggressors. The thieves left a skiff behind\nthem which may prove a key to identification.\n \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\t\nY. H. C. A.

Hers\nwas a sorrow that mortal may not trespass upon. God only can bind up thi*\nbroken heart.

She was to remain in a temporary hospital at a snit.i-\nable distance from the field, ready to give\ncare and attention to such of tlie wounded as the next morning's battlo iu_.\nbring her. From this sweet rister, who\nbad so nobly followed them, they had no\nsecret. They knew that tho morrow wa *\nfull of peril and would dawn upon one\nof the most fiercely contested fields of\nthe whole war.\nAfter some time spent in this discussion Eustace turned the conversation to\nthe anxious hearts at home. He read\nthem a letter he had received that evening from his wife, in which she spoke\nwith a mother's pride of his Utile son and\nwith much tender longing that he could\njee the child if only for an hour. Inclosed was a picture of the babo in her\narms. Rose and her brother were enthusiastic in their expressions of dells nt\nat the evidently faithful picture of tr*.*n\nloved sister and their little nepl.-\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD.\nTheir loving remarks were occasion*/:.'\nmingled with a laughing reproach of\nEtastace for concealing his possession of\nsuch a treasure. .\nBut George, noticing that he had been\nunusually silent during this joyful, half\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDplayful conveBBttlon which tho letter\nand picture had caused, repcllly tuider-*\nstood that the husband's aud father's\nheart was yearning for one look upon\nt'.ioso he so dearly loved, ami doUbtk^S\n(thoughts of the coming sirup 1? i:'.-\".-\nfled with other emotions.

Ciesar states that it\nexisted as an institution among the\nCelts, and in Roman England the conquered natives were held in a state of\nserfdom. In Saxon and early Norman times the children of the old English peasantry and captives taken in\nwar were sold like cattle in Bristol\nmarket and many were exported to\nScotland and Ireland. \"Doomsday\nbook\" states that the slaves numbered\ntwenty-five thousand. Soon after the\nconquest the distinct slave class ceased\nto exist and the slaves were merged\nwith the lower class of eeorls under the\ngeneral designation of villeins. The\nvilleins in early feudal times were annexed to the land and were devisable\nas goods and chattels, but in process of\ntime tho higher class of villeins gained\na title to the land on which they\nworked, and after the reign of Richard\nII. we find little reference to villeinage.\nAlthough the church had eurly succeeded in putting an end to the English\nslave traffic by the canon of the council\nof 1102, slavery was never abolished by\nany positive enactment; and, according\nto the Brooklyn Eagle, it was not till\n1660 that the last remnants of the\nfeudal system were finally swept away.\nSlavery was abolished, but slavery did\nnot cease, for until the time of George\nIII. colliers were bought and sold, and\nif they left the estate to which they belonged were brought back by force. It\nwas not till the year 1775 that an act\nwas passed by which they were declared\nfree and were put on the same footing\naa other servants.\nThe advertisement of the brigand\nCandimo, in the Journal of Sicily, complaining of a correspondent's letter, ia\ncuriously illustrative of the march of\ncivilization. He is still pursuing his\nprofession at the head of a considerable\nband, and he begs to state, \"through\nyour esteemed columns,\" (for which\npurpose he forwards five francs) that\nthe remarks in question aro injurious to\nhim. \"We do not touch the poor who\nwork for their living, but only the rich.\nNor do we kill persons with a dagger,\nas ia infamously asserted of tha man\nOaaaetaro; we shot him!\"\nFIRST-CLASS\n8\nTO ORDER\nAT J.
