The party consisted of W. E. Carlin, son of Brigadier-General\nWilliam Carlin ; J. H. Pierce, brother-in-\nlaw of Mr. Carlin; and L. A. Himmel-\nwright, secretary of the Columbia Granite\nCompany, of New York. Himmelwright\ngivea the following account of the party's\nexperience : The party waa organized laat\nsummer, and started from Spokane, Washington, where they engaged Martin Spencer\nas guide and George Colgate, of Poet Falls,\nas cook. They proceeded by train to Ken-\ndrick, Idaho, and with ten cayuses and five\nweeks' provisions started ouo from that\npoint on Sept. 18 h. The route was by way\nof Snell'e Mill, Weippe, Brown's creek,\nMusselshell creek, and thence via theLolo trial\nto what are known as the Indian poatoffices,\n55 uiilea from Mussel Shell creek. At this\npoint the trail branches out from the Lolo\ntrail and leads to the warm springs on the\nClearwater river, the destination of the\nparty, which was reached on Sept. 26th.\nAlthough it rained steadily for 13 days,\nwhich interfered considerably with tbe\npleasure of bunting, the party met with\ngreat aucciss, aud on Oct. 10th started\non the return trip over the Lolo\ntrail. After reaching the top of\nthe. first ridge, parallel to Clearwater\nriver, two and a half feet of snow was found,\nand the guide estimated that the snow\nwould be four feet deep on the higher\nportions of the Lolo trail. Should the\nhorses become exhaust ed from lack of food,\nthe party would be compelled to walk the\nrest of ths distance, and aa the cook was\nsick and usable to walk, his poaition in that\noaae would be very serious. It waa consequently decided io return to the old camp\non the Clearwater snd build a raft. If by\nthe time the rafts were completed, the cook\nwas still unable to walk, an attempt would\nbe made to float down the river to the south\nfork, near which several ranchea were known\nto be located. Fifteen daya were consumed\nin building the two rafts. After thia several\ndaya more were devoted t o a final examination of the Lolo trail and in seouring meat\nfor the proposed trip down ihe river.\nSpencer found the trail impracticable after a\nlaborious trip in the mow. The cook in the\nmeantime had been growing feebler every\nday. A trapper, Ben Keeley, was engaged\nto accompany the party, wiih a supply of\nprovisions equally divided on the rafts. So\nas to a void the possibility of loeingalioheir provisions in case either of the rafts were lost,\nthe party embarked and began the journey\ndown the river on November 3rd. Two upsets and the delay caused by the necessity of\nexamining the river in advance of the rafts\nmade their progress slow, and by the 13th of\nNovember only twenty two miles had been\naccomplished. At this point the river was\nfound to be full of projecting boulders and\nthe water very swift. Further examination\nresulted in the discovery of several o'her\nimpassable placee in the river which made\nrafting impracticable. It was decided to\nabandon the rafts and proceed ihe remaining distance of about thii ty e.gni miles on\nfoot. The cook at thai time wins in a aemi-\nunoonsoious condition, mortiticaiion having\nattacked his leu* b-low ill\" knees. Only\neight days' provisions were left, and as the\ncook could not po.sih'y live but a few days\nlonger, and waa beside, perfectly helpless,\nhe was made as comfortable as possible and\nthe rest of the party began their journey on\nfoot. The shores of the river were a masa\nof ragged rocks on which one could get at\nbest only an uncertain foothold. Frequently a large projecting cliff would tinu< over\nthe river and au hour or more would be consumed iu surmounting it. On the third\nday of abandoning the rafts tbe party reached Black Canyon, which proved lo be eight\nmilts in length. The river there has almost\nvertical walls, varying from 100 to 200 feet\nin height. Clinging to bushes and small\nsap ings, with a footing sometimes of only a\nfew inches' width, and often many hundred\nfeet above the river, the progress of the\nparty was necessaril slow and extremely\nhazardous. Turee days were consumed in\npassing through the canyon, without shelter\nor blankets, and sometimes harassed by rain\nand snow. Very little sleep could be secure, l, and when on the eighth dsy, the\nsupply of flour was exhausted there waB\nample cau\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDe to feel discouraged. But enfeebled as it was from loss of sleep and\nscarcity of food, the piriy pushed\nbravely on. On the ten. h day of their\ntramp, November 2*2, after having subsiated\nfor tu-o days on tea, three tisli aud a few\nbprrhs, while slowly moving down river,\nand when within five milea of the nearest\nranohe, the pirty was fortunate enough to\nmeet Lieutenant Elliott, who was iu charge\nof one of the relief expeditions aent out\nfrom the Vancouver, Waeh., barracks. Mr.\nElliott immediately camped and cared for\nthe men. As soou as the party was able to\ntravel they were hurried onward by boats\non the river to the Indian ferry on the north\nfork of the Clearwater river, 24 miles from\nKendrick, then by wagon to Snell's Mill\nand thence to Kendrick, where they arrived\nsafely on November 30th, and were met by\nBrigadier-General William P. Carlin, When\nthe route by trail was abandoued, the party\nwaa obliged to rely on its own resourcea, as\nthe guide was not familiar with the river or\nthe management of a small raft in swift\nwater They certainly could have gotten\nont by November 1st, by pushing through\nthe snow on foot, after exhausting the\nhorses, or by snowshoes. It waa aolely the\nhope of bringing out George Colgate safely\nthat led them to sacrifice a month of untold\nhardship and suffering whioh the trip down\nthe river certainly necessitated.\nMoAnllffe Nearly Right.\nSan Francisco, Deo. 1.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDJack McAuliffe,\nchampion light-weight pugiliat, arrived from\nthe east this morning.

The old statesman will next\nmonth complete his 84th year, and the\ngreater part of that time has been spent in\na public lite of extraordinary activity. It\nis little wonder that his age and labors commence to tell upon him. Very few men in-,\ndeed have carried their intellectual rigor\ninto advanced life aa has Mr. Gladstone.\nAmong those who have done so are Thomas\nCarlyle, Plato, Buffon, Goethe, Franklin,\nSir W. HerBchell, Newton, Voltaire and\nHalley, the astronomer. But these are only\na handful of names after all,and are seleoted\nfrom aeveral centuries. The disappearance\nof Mr. Gladstone from the scene may not be\nwitnessed immediately, but even the waning\nof his powers must be a matter of deep\nanxiety to the parly of which he ia the\nmainstay.\nThe propoaed amendments to the act providing for a labor bureau and councils of\nconciliation and arbitration promise to give\nthe Provincial Government much food for\nreflection between now and the next session\nof the House. Following the interest taken\nin the matter by organized labor bodies,\nunorganized labor now proposes to take a\nhand in the matter and will ask for recognition. With a view to thia a maaa meeting\nof unorganized labor haa been called in Victoria for Tuesday next, when ateps will be\ntaken to represent to the Government the\nviews of this important branch of society.\nIt will be interesting to watch the proceedings of this meeting and what kind of\nworkers will be represented there. When\nit is considered that what is termed organized labor represents but a fraction of the\ngreat maaa of workers additional interest\nwill centre in a gathering such as that announced to take place in Victoria on Tuesday next. Our Victoria correspondent informs us that the propoaed meeting is the\nresult of a refusal on the part of the laSor\ndelegates who recently visited Victoria to\nallow Mr. W. P. Winsby and a Mr. McKim\nthe right to participate in the conference\nwith the Government.\nThe Ottawa Citizen of a recent date aa; a:\nThe Minister of Marine snd Fisheries is at\npresent engaged in conaidering the report of\nthe commissioners appointed to investigate\nthe complaints touching the salmon fishery\nregulations of Britiah Columbia Sir. Charles\nexpects in a few days to have the reault of\nthe inquiry pat into the shape of draft regulations whioh will be aent the members for\nBritiah Columbia and to the Boards of\nTrade, to ascertain the views of the parties\ninterested before making a final recommendation to His Excellency in council. There\nwill be ample opportunity to do this before\nthe commencement of ths fishing season next\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDpring. \t\nProvince would only have a ahort month or\ntwo at their diapoaal. It had occurred to\nthe Government, at one time, that the Chicago exhibit could be removed to San Francisco. That, however, oould not be done,\nas the exhibit was going to the Imperial Institute, that being arranged before the present exhibition had come forward, and the\nexhibit had already been removed. Ths exhibit could not be got up without conaider-\nable expense, and there were no funds at\npresent at the dicpnsal of the Government.\nHon. Col. Baker pointed out tbat it would\nbe impossible to get together a display of\nminerals during this season of the year, and\nit would be a great pity if such an important\nresource was uot properly represented.\nMayor Curtis, of New Westminster, urged\nthat this was an opportunity for advertising\nthe Province that might not occur again, as\nof the million people that were expected to\nvisit San Francisco, many would be looking\nfor investments, and an exhibit of our resources would uttract their attention. An\noutlay of $10,000 or $18,000 would, he felt,\nbe to the advantage of the Province if the\nGovernment could aee ita way clear to make\nan appropriation.\nMr. Macgowan apoke in a similar way for\nVancouver, while Aid. Nightingale, of\nNanaimo, advocated tho matter on the\nground ot the great good it would do to the\ncoal induatry of Nanaimo.\nOthera of the Victoria delegation followed, holding that a good exhibit oould be\nsecured, and advocating the utilization of\nthe Provincial museum and mineral collection. The Mainland men were sure a good\nlumber diapUy could be secured, besides\nslate and agricultural products, helped out\nby the experimental farm exhibits.\nFinally tbe Premier thanked the delegation for their attendance*, saying that the\nGovernment would carefully consider every\nargument put forward, and if they found\nthat they could constitutionally assist the\nproject, their first impressions would not be\nso indelible as not to be removed. The\nquestion was one of money, and the Finanoe\nMinister would have to be consulted. The\nwiahea of the delegation would have careful conaideratiou.\nAfter thanking the Premier and the other\nministers, the delegation withdrew.\nINSURANCE\nMARCUS WOLFE\nREAL BSTATB\nEiN\"^.3sroiA.Xi -ajst-d gke:n\"e:r.a.Ij oo^n^fXTssionsr broker\nRoom 11, Johnston Slock, Commercial Street, Nanaimo, B.

She replied briskly, and the\nfight was kept up until she had run past the\nforta aud was out of range. It was seen\nthat some of the shots from the forts took\neffect and it is believed that the Aquidaban\nsuffered conaiderable damage.

Viotoria on Friday evening.\nMr. Flummerfelt introduced the membera\nof the deputation to the Government representatives, Hon. C. E Pooley and Hon.\nJames Baker, and stated the object for\nwhioh they called upon the Government,\nsetting forth the utility of the Province\nmaking an exhibit in coal, fish, lumber and\nminerals, particularly as the propoaed revision of the Amerioan tariff would encourage export trade to the States.\nHon. Mr. Davie replied that the Government had already given the subject a great\n-deal of consideration, and the result of\ntheir deliberations pointed to the inadvisa-\nbility of making an effort to have a Provincial display. The Government felt it would\nbe extremely unwise to make any attempt\nunless they could succeed in making such a\ncreditable display that it would be an unquestionably meritorious advertisement of\nthe country. They could not afford to take\nany risk of failure or but partial success.\nHe would point out that it was now approaching the end of the year and the opening of the fair. Nothing had yet been done\nby way of preparation, consequently it\nwould take some time to get up a display.\nThe Chicago fair had given some experience,\nno doubt, but it took a couple of years to\nprepare for that.

W. P. Winaby, who secured the right to use the City Hall, is the\nleader of unorganized labor in the matter.\nHe attended the recent conference of labor\ndelegates with the Government, as a representative of the Ancient Order of Foresters,\nan invitation having been sent this important secret society by mistake. Finding that\nthe interview concerned labor interests very\nmuch he decided to remain as a representative of many laboring men in the ranks of\nthe Foresters. His right was challenged by\nlabor union men, however, and he was compelled by them to withdraw, as was also\ndelegate McKim, who acted as spokesman\nfor the Vanoouver loggers, who have no organized uoion. The non-union men have\nnow decided to be heard separately and\ntheir mass meeting on Tuesday is the preliminary step.\nUpwards of 250 tenders have been received for the const ruction of the new Parliament buildings. The contract will be awarded in a few days.\nThe steamer Danube, whioh arrived from\nthe north to-day, reports that ice is\nalready being got out on the Skeena river,\nwhere the snow is now two feet deep on the\nlevel.\nThe steamer Chieftain, a valuable tow-\nboat, recently went ashore two miles below\nPort Kssington. She floated w.'th high tide\nat the following dawn, when it was found\nthat a large hole had been stove in the starboard side. The repairs, necessarily extensive, will bo executed at some place on the\nSkeena.\ntion of coming to San Francisco in a body,\nsometime during the fair. It is not impossible that thia proposed press day will\ndsvelop into a most interesting gathering of\nliterary people from all over the world and\ntbat there may be held on that occasion a\ncopgreis on matters relating to newspaper\nand literary work in general, whioh will be\nsecond only to that which was held in\nChicago during the Columbian exposition.\nA Congressman Dead.\nMauch Chunk, Pa., Dec. 1.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDGeneral\nWilliam Lilly, congressman at large from\nPennsylvania, died at hia home hare this\nafternoon.

It ia, however, surmised that he has\ntaken his flagship towards Desterro to join\nforces with the revolutionists in that\nvicinity, leaving the partial siege of Rio to\nbe prosecuted by the vessels remaining in\nthat port. There has been a supposition\nontertained here that the Admiral\nwhen he left Rio, whioh movement\nwas expected by the officials, would steam\nnorth with tbe intention of meeting the\nNictheroy, lately the El Cid. It was\nthought probable in tbat case that the light\nunarmored cruiser would fall an eaay prey\nto the iron-clad with hor heavy rifled guna,\nbut the fact that Mello has gone south gives\ncolor to the story that his vessel is in bad\noondition, and unfitted to cope with the fleet\noruiaer. It ia probable also, that the hull of\nths warahip ia so foul from long exposure to\nthe quiet tropical waters of Rio bay, that\nths commander has found it absolutely\nneoessary to go to some safe place where her\nbottom may be cleaned. Meanwhile the\nfurther movements of the Aquidaban are the\nobject of great solicitude in official oircles\nhere, and it is expeoted that when she next\nappears in port the nearest United Statea\ndiplomatic consular officer will promptly\nreport the fact.\nTbe New Master Workman.\nBaltimore, Md., Dec. 1.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDJames Sovereign, the new general master workman of\nthe Knights of Labor, who was eleoted on\nMonday lai-t to fill out T.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1893.\nLOCAL NEWS.\nSara Lord BaUey.\nAa a town we have reason to feel proud of\ntbe audience which greeted Miaa Sara Lord\nBailey of Boston, last Monday evening.more\nparticularly when we slate that she moBt\nadmirably euatained the exalted repulation\nwhich had preceded her. The selections\nwere entirely new, rangiDg all the way from\nheavy dramatic to the most humorous, and\nthe delineation of character throughout waa\nperfect. Miss Bailey Beema to have complete control of every faculty of her body,\nand this coupled with her natural beauty,\nenables her to excel among competitors. On\nMonday evening she rendered eight selections, two of which, \"Life for a Life\" and\n\"Maoda,\" a tale of the South, occupied\nfifteen or twenty minutes respectively, and\nthese were recited throughout without a\nfalter, aud in such a realistic manner, that\none seemed to gaze upon the actual scenea.\nFor a go> d solid laugh, \"Ruggles' Dinner\nParty\" and \"Jimmy Brown,\" cannot be\nbeaten. What could be more natural thau\n\"Putting the Baby to Sleep'.'\" while \"Money\nMusk,\" the \"Engineer's Signal\" and \"The\nGoat,\" were equally and deservedly applauded. There was but one opinion in the\naudience: \"She is just grand.\" Should\nMies Bailey ever come back to Newrrmrket,\nwe havo no doubt but that the hall will be\npacked. There were those in the audience\nwho had heard Mias Coulhoui of Chicago,\nwho has the reputation of being the best\nelocutionist on the American continent, and\nthey could not see but that in the rauge of\nsubjects and manner of execution, Miss\nBailey was quite her equal. Those who\nheard Mrs. Scott-Siddons years ago, consider Miss Bailey superior to her.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDNewmarket Era.\nPerfumes of \" Araby the Blest.\"\nA magnificent assortment of fine perfumes\nis shown by the Creacent Drug Store.

No less can be suid of the perfumes from such famed houses as those of\nRimmol, Colgate, Ricksecker, Luutiborg\nand Seely; while Canada is worthily represented by Taylor, of Toronto, whose goods\nare put up in a very attractive form. All\nthese perfumes are kept by the Crescent\nPharmacy in bulk, bo that the beautiful\ncontainers, when empty, can be ri filled; and\nnot be, as is often the case, a sparkling reminder of joye that are fled. The display\nis worth seeing, and the courteous attendants are ever ready to exhibit their stock,\nwhile to the curious, they impart many interesting details of the manufacture and use\nof perfumes.

She is a four-master, and\nher aerial intricacies of rigging and\nhalliards and ropes are a Chinese puzzle\nto the landsman, but a vision of delight\nto the shellback. She is the Roanoke,\ngiantess of wooden sailing vessels, and\nthe last of ber type that ever will be.\nconstructed in America. For that reason she is worth, more than passing notice. She represents the vanishing era\nof wooden bottoms, discriminated\nagainst by the marine underwriters\nsince the advent of steel ships.\nLong ago. says the New Yorker, the\nwooden sailing craft ceased to be a carrier of any significance in the British\ntrade. All of the big British clippers\nare of stee', and nearly all those of recent construction are four-masters. The\nBritish skipper calls his four-master a\nharl, because she is schooner-rigged on\nthe fourth, which is known both as the\nspanker and jigger mast. The Yankee\nskipper thinks that any sailing vessel\nwith three masts square rigged is a\nship. The four-masted British ships\nmay be numbered by the score; the\nfour-masted American ships may be\ncounted on the fhiffcrs of one hand.\nHut the nautical optimists say this is to\nbe changed, and that the change is at\nhand. The keel of thu first American\nsteel ship soon will be laid at Bath, and\nafter she is launched others will follow\nher down the ways in rapid succession.\nThe builders hope to do with the steel\nclippers, which will be constructed on\napproved American racing models, what\nour citizens did with wooden clippers\nbefore the war. They held the record\nthen from every port, near or remote,\nand they made modest fortunes for\ntheir builders and owners. The best of\nthe steel British ships cannot approach\nthe wonderful performances of the great\nfleet of Yankee flyers of forty years ag-o.\nThe Northern Light is credited with\nmaking the voyage from San Francisco\nto this port in seventy-two days. The\nFlying Dutchman, built by William II.\nWebb of this city in 1852, covered 4,li*J0\nknots in sixteen consecutive days, an\naverage of nearly twelve knots an hour.\nThe Dreadnaiight made the i!,S()0-knot\nrun between New York and Queens-\ntown in less than ten days. The Sovereign of the Seas made the passage\nfrom the Sandwich islands to New York\nin eighty-two days, covering on one day\n875 knots, which is better than the best\nday's run of an eight-day steamship\nfrom Queenstown. The Mary White-\nredge ran from Baltimore to Liverpool\nin thirteen days and seven hours. The\nBed Jacket made over 835 statute miles\na day for one week. These are some of\nthe records the Koanoke will try to\nequal. Veteran skippers do not believe\nshe can do it, but her commander is\nhopeful.\nThe Koanoke is not the biggest American ship ever built. That distinction\nbelonged to the Great Republic, which\nwas even iarger than the colossal steel\nfive-master France, the largest sailing\nvessel in the world. The Great Republic was built in Fast Boston by Donald\nMcKay in 1 S.\">S. Her master, Capt.\nJoseph 1*. Hamilton, is the same Hamilton who now commands and partly\nowns the Koanoke. The (Ireat Republic was not so heavily sparred as the\nKoanoke. She carried 15,(158 square\nyards of canvas, while the Koanoke\nspreads nearly 20,000.

Her extreme beam is 4.0*8 feet, her depth 89.10,\nfeet and her draught 27 feet. The\ngolden ball on the top of her main sky-\nsail pole is nearly '.'00 feet from the\ndeck. Her main and mizzon lower\nmasts are 02 feet high, aud her fore\nlower mast is 1)1 feet high. Her lower\nspanker mast is 0s feet high. Her fore,\nmain and mizzen topmasts are 56 feet\nhigh, and her spanker topmast is frt*J\nfeet high. Each of her three topgallant masts is US feet high, her three\nroyal masts 10 feet, horskysail masts 15\nfeet and her skysail poles il feet. Each\nof her three lower yards is 05 feet long,\nher lower topsail yards ss feet long,\nher topgallant yards 08 feet long, her\nroyal yards 55 feet long and her skysail\npoles 0 feet. Each of her three lower\nyards is 05 feet long, her lower topsail\nyards SS feet long, her topgallant yards\n(ill feet long, her royal yards 55 feet long,\nand her skysail yards 44 feet long.\nThese are gigantic spars, and their size\ncan be appreciated only by the sailor-\nman who furls sail on them.\nOn her maiden voyage from Bath to\nthis port recently with 1,400 tons of ice\nin her hold as ballast, the Roanoke had\nonly light winds, and eould not test her\nsailing qualities. She will fit out at\nErie, basin, and be ready for her first\ncargo of 5,400 tons in December.

Like the poet, they are bom with\ntheir glorious powers. But many women\nwho couveise intelligently aud pleasantly\nhare become masters of tbe art by patient\ncare and study. Even persons of ordinary\nability will find upon making the effort that\nwhere it is not a gift no other deficiency can\nbe so well supplemented by art. For the\nuntutored there are three old rules which may\nnot prove amiss. Talk to men on the subject\nwhich belongs to their-peculiar callings, talk\nabout those things which interest yourself,\nassuming also that they interest your listener,\nand make it a point to inform yourself upon\na variety of topics; never be guilty\nof introducing in a mixed company\na subject upon which all may not\nbe able to converse. There is a wonderful faculty in drawing people out,\nin making the strangers and the timid feel\nat ease, in putting questions so skillfully\nand adroitly as to compel them to answer as\nthough they were conferring a favor on you,\nnot you seeking to sutertaiu them; but here\nthe rule of good breeding is the best to follow. Many of our oity bred women excel in\nthis elegant accomplishment, and some of our\nsocial gath rings, for wit, repartee and Intel igent thought, bring to mind the historical\nSalons of that queen of conversation. .Mme.\nile Stael. But it is not always the most brilliant talker who is the most pleasing conversationalist; truth, deference, good uature,\nsympathy, tact and charity are the ingredients of the best conversation; without these\nthe most sparkling wit and liveliest imagination must soon repel rather than attract.\nAbove all sbu-i doleful topics.
