Admiral Luce, of -the American fishery fleet, will en courage no lawlessness on the part of his countrymen, but do what he pan to compel them to obey the law. Monetary Times. One day, (luring the pedagogical career of the eccentric Tom Wight, n poor little urchin entered complaint that some of the larger boys had got his knife, but which one he -wus unable to state. Diligent inquiry was made, but all to no purpose. The teacher then gave them a sound lecture on the wiokedness and folly of thieving, concluding by stating that a big fly was now orawling over the nose of the very lad who had stolen the knife. Quick as a flash one of the members clapped his hand to the place indicated. "Now, young man," said Uncle Tom, "disgorge." The knife was immediately returned to its rightful owner, the thief took his thrashing like a little man, and the matter waB dismissed.âOxford (Me.) Advertiser. The other evening, on one of the suburban trains going out of the city, there was a well-known Boston vocalist, who appropriated to his sole use and comfort two seats. While this luxurious wayfarer was enjoying so muoh room there entered the car a man considerably under the influence of liquor. The inebriate could find no available seat save that which the first mentioned passenger had appropriated, and going up to the latter the bibulous traveller said: "Move o-over, p-please, (hid) I want a s-seat." The other glanced up with a look of intense scorn, but did not deign further notice just then of his interlocutor. The intoxicated individual returned again to the charge with, "Can't you move o-over and give a fellow a seat?" "No, I can't and won't; you are drunk," was the curt response, "well," stammered the other, "I know I'm drunk, (hie I) but I'll get over that. You're a hog, and will never get over it"âBoston Budget. A traveller in Persia relates the following incident:â"I was on a visit to a judge when a man was brought in who stoutly denied the offence with which he was charged. The beglerbeg (judge) sont for a whip. 'I vow I am innocent,' said the accused, as he crossed his hands over his breast, at the same time stretching forward one of his fingers. The minions of justice stood ready to strike at a signal from the judge, who fixed his eyes on the breast of the prisoner and exclaimed: 'You are guilty V 'By thy vonerablo head I vow I am not guilty!" protested the accused, now raising two fingers. This process was continued until he at last stretched out five fingers of each hand, when the beglerbeg remarked : "Good, let him go; he is innocent.' I learned afterward that by raising his finger the prisoner meant the judge to understand that he ollered 1 tonan (about 10s.) for his release, and had been compelled to raise the amount by successive bids to 10 tonans (£5) in order to satisfy the demands of Persian justice."âLondon Figaro. Tho Inter-Ocean has from time to time watched with some interest the progress of the Tehuantepec railway, and is gratified to know that the death of Capt. Eads is not to prove fatal to it, as has been surmised. Captain E. L. Corthell, who had long been associated with him upon the work, has been appointed his successor as engineer-in-chief, and has established a branch ofice in tho city of Chicago. Captain Corthell is a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers^ the Philadelphia Society of Civil Engineers,tho Boston Society of Civil Engineers, the Institution of Civil Engineers of Great Britain, the French Society of Civil Engineers, and a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The works of which he has already had immediate supervision, and for which he has been directly responsible, have involved an expenditure of over $75,000,000. Tlie memoir of his late distinguished chief, prepared by him at the instance of the American Society of Civil Engineers, nnd entered upon their proceedings, is a touching and eloquent tribute to the memory of a man whose various successful enterprises and sacrifices, during the war of tho rebellion and ut times of great public peril, should endear him through all time to the gratitude of the American people.â Chicago Inter-Ocean.

By Associated Press, San FitANCiaco, July 8.âTwo girls, 12 and 14 years of ago, were sent to St. Mary'H Dust house yesterda^. One patient was Bent to St. Mary's from Frederick st last Friday, her friends not knowing she had small-pox. Other girls wore also taken to the hospital last Friday from the convent, at Brooklyn, Alamedo Co., to which place they were sent from their homes on Natoma Bt. Dr. Menrea says: " 1 have notified the people uf the convent from which the second one came, to Iubo no time in disenfecting tbe bed and room occupied by the girl during her stay at thoir institution- and every possible precaution be taken , to prevent any further spread of the disease." HE WOULDN'T CBLKDRATB. Redwood City, July 8.âResidences and business houses here were very generally decorated on the 4th July. though a notable exception was in the case of Dr. A. W. Gamble. He is said to be a Canadian. One of the citizens noticing.this tacked several American flags on the doctor's office, wIid tore them down. About 30 citi zens, learning uf this at a late hour last night gathered arid proceeded to decorate the office iu a truly American style. Flags, bunting and emblems were hung about the front and sides, and the result was transformation. The doctor made his appearance at once, and again trampled the flags and decorations under his feet. This morning an image bearing a life-like appearance of the doctor, with his name tacked to it, sways from a telegraph pole on main street. No one can be found wilting to cut it down. TRIED FOK Ml'ltDER. Caiusa, July 8.âThe trial of Hong Di for the murder of Mrs. Billion was resumed this morning at 9 o'clock, and Annie and Maude Billion were called, and testified, corroborating Weaver's testimony in all its material points. R. B. Dunning, Aaron Evans, William TW,»n«* onJ -To, "*»"*- '*"*«]fied BB to the incidents following tho shooting and the search for the murderer. William II. Wadhams, gunsmith of Chico, testified to Belling Hong Di a gun about 2 years ago and identified tho gun. J, H. Hall, Dovoney and Weaver wero also examined as to the identity of tho gun, and G. Sanders tcsti tied as to Uie capture of the defendant. The prosecution rested. The defence made nn opening statement that would prove that Hong tried to kill Weaver and that Mrs. Billion was accidentally killed. The defendant was called and testified that he will be 17 years old in August and had worked for Billion ovor three years. The Billion family, he said, were all kind to him and taught him to read and write. He had never had any trouble with any of them, Said he fired at Weaver aud fired at Annie when she put hor head out of tho window, thinking it was Weaver. Cross- examination of defendant brought out nothing new aud ho was tlio only witness examined in his own behalf. Weaver said Hong's statement as to the difference between himself and defendant is all false aud that he nover threatened to kill Hong. DE1UTINO CRIMEN RILL. London, July it.âLord Hartington in the commons this afternoon, continuing tho debate on tho Irish crimes bill, said ho rocognized overy portion of tlio majority supporting the measure must boar its full onus of tho responsibility for what has been done. So long aa tho Liberal-Unionists were supported by tho thinking nnd cultured classes of England, they would continue with confidence in thoir course; "for," added he "sutely the masses cannot have a better knowledge tlian the educated classos of tho difference between England and Ireland." HERMAN NEWS. Berlin, July ft.âTho greatanarchy trial involving socialists of Hamburg, Berlin, and Leipsic began here on the 13th inst. before tho imperial tribunal court at Leipsic.

Tho Coburg Zetiuag, in n semi official articlo on Prince Ferdinand, says: "In attempts of the Bulgarian party of independence to draw Prince Ferdinand into its confused atftuvs, we must point out the fact that a German prince, such ns Ferdinand cannot accept a crown without permission from tho head of tho houso to which lie bo- longs, nor without the consent of tho Emperor William, and till their consent iB obtained nothing can be sttlod." NBWS FROM STANLEY. London, July 0.âTho latest news from Stanley, uie African explorer, is that he is on a journey from Leopold- rillo to Lonkolola. He encountered and had overcome many serioui obstacles. One of the gravest difficulties was to replenish his coinminary. The threatened scarcity of proviiions greatly excited a number of his men and it became necessary to punish malcontents with much severity and to reduco them to subjection to savo tho expedition, Stanley himrelf is ill from excessive heat. The expedition left Balbo on the 11th May and was expected to reach the Congo at its confluence with the Aronheim by the Oth June. . Stanley's programme was to encamp at this point and await the arrival of Tippo Tip, npproaching from Stanley Falls with provisions and several hundred more men. THE CROSS-CUT REACHED, VntoiNU, Nov;, July ft.âAt 8 o'clock a blast was fired and a bole broken through the full sine of the drift. Scafoid Lyman and several miners looking through the opening and found they were in the long sought cross-cut. Lanterns were lighted and candles held in the opening at arms' length were instantly extinguished, while the aperture was as torrid u a heated oven. To attempt to remain in the cross-cut any length of time of without a supply of fresh air would be certain death, and the men who looked in wore forced to withdraw their heads from the opening. Pipes are now being laid into the cross-cut aad strong currents of pure air will be forced through them by compressors. It will probably be noon to-morrow before the bodies of tbe victims are reached. Genan is positive they were asphyxiated very Boon after the fire occurred. REVOLUTION IN HONOICtU. San Francisco, July 9.âThe steatu* ship Mariposa, which arrived from Australia this morning, having touched at Honolulu, brings the important information that the revolution has actually commenced in the Hawaiian kingdom. On June 25th the populaoe organized by appointing the people's committee and at once assumed police jurisdiction over the kingdom. The volunteer and military companies joined in the movement and all guns and ammunition which arrived on the ships from Australia and the United States were seized. A mass meeting of the populace was held on June 30, at which a demand was made for the downfall of the Gibson ministry and a new constitution, or the abdication of the king. A meeting of the American minister and other foreign government representatives was heJ4 and the king offered to transfer to them pro tern, all powers vested in him aa king. They declined but advised the king to lose no time in forming a new cabinet aud constitution which would meet the demands of the people. The king addressed the committee appointed by the populace, announcing that Walter M. Gibson and other members of the cabinet had resigned and appointed William L. Green prime minister. Gibson and his son-in-law, H. Hays* elen, were arrested by civil troops on July 1st and are now under guard. The populace assumed control of the affair* -n.ft-H^----77â **£-* and were joined by the Honolulu rifles and other hastily organized military companies. Patrols were established throughout the city and guards placed over ihe military armories. On Jaly 1st Kalakau formally appointed Wm. L.

The question of disallowance and the construction of the Manitoba boundary railway still occupy a great deal of attention in the east. It was reported that the Manitoba government intended to retain tho railway bill until the road had been built w that there would be no opportunity to veto it, but this does not seem to have been done, and it is reported that the bill was actually disallowed at Ottawa a wiek ago yesterday. Then there were difficulties about getting monoy to build the road. Morton, Roso A Go. of London, had undertaken to negotiate tho loan; but they were advised by the Ottawa government that the bonds were issued in furtherance of an enterprise that is contrary to the will of .the people of Canada, as expressed by the house of commons. Messrs. Morton, Rose A Co. thereupon declined to place the loan. It is stated, however, that other financial agents have been found willing to undertake the task, and that arrangements for obtaining the money are complete. The contract for building the railway .has been signed, and Inst Saturday tho first sod was turned with a great deal of ceremony by the premier of Manitoba in the presence of a vast assemblage of enthusiastic Manitobans. It is not certain, however, .that the difficulties of the road .have been surmounted. Some think1 the Dominion government, having disallowed the bill, will take no further action, as it is not considered expedient to push matters too far while rthe people of Manitoba continue in their present frame of mind. But the hostility of the Ottawa cabinet may lead to much embarrassment, and it is freely predicted that it will result in the defeat of the scheme. Mr. Ryan is the contractor, and he has engaged as superintendent Mr. M. J. Haney, weir known in connection with the Onderdonk contracts in this province. It has been surmised in certain quarters that the Grand Trunk Railway has guaranteed to find the ucessary funds, but this is mere conjectare. If there is any way of carrying the scheme through to completion, we may be sure it will be carried through; but, on the other hand, federal opposition may prove a very serious'obstacle. It is stated that the governor-general has not yet assented to the minute of disallowance, and some Winnipeggers claim that he is opposed to tho policy and may reruro i>iâ uuuwu. altogether. Should this course be pursued, several questions relating to the powers and privileges of the executive will come up. It is claimed that in such matters the governor is left free by the constitu tion to follow the dictates of his own'judgment, and it is asserted that Lord Lansdowne has laid the whole circumstances before the imperial authorities and asked for ex plicit instructions. The abstract right of Manitoba to charter and build railways wherever she pleases is generally conceded in the east. The Mail, which will be accepted as a very good authority, in a recent article recites the situation in the following words: "Manitoba enjoys a constitution" similar in nearly all respects to that of Ontario. Her constitution cannot be altered by Canadian legislation. The imperial act of 1871 confirming the Manitoba act of 1870 distinctly provides that it shall not be competent for the parliament of Canada to alter the provisions of the' latter act. The constitutional right of Manitoba to build railways from any one point to any other within her boundaries cannot, therefore, be taken from hor by Dominion legislation." Thii is tlie position always held by the Columbian, and it applies, of course, to British Columbia in the same way as it applies to Manitoba. The federal government has no constitutional right, therefore, to disallow the Westminster Southern Railway bill, and, as we have pointed out over and over again, disallowance is pursued as a policy and not a necessity. That policy the government can abandon whenever it chooses. We are constantly told that it would not be in the interest of the Dominion to give up the disallowance policy, and in proof of this opinion we are referred to the fact that the policy was approved by a large majority of the members of the houn of commons. Our reply ia that thia was made a party question in the house, and although certain persons were left free to vote as they saw fit, the vote was influenced by party considerations and cannot be accepted as a free expression of the sentiment of the house."- s James.CtJlaa, Pool's Island, N. F., writes: I have been watching the progress of Dr. Thomas'Eclectric Oil since its iatwduotion to this place, and with much Measure state that my anticipations of lis snccess have been fully realized, it having cured me of bronchitis and soreness of nose; while not a few of my "rhentnatlc neighbors" (one old lady In particular) pronounce It to be the best article of Its kind that has ever been brought before the public.

HY JENNIE 8AYKK. I'm a temperance man, I will do what I can, I will earnestly talk aud pray; I will labor with might for the cause of right, But I cannot vote that way. With eloquouco warm I will urge reform, Let all the world take note, I never shirk from temperance work, Excepting when I vote. I will labor so that the world may know I'm a zealous temperance man; I will talk of laws that will aid the cause, But I cannot vote that way. My tongue shall delight to talk of right, I will speak its praise each day; I will urge it strong on the listening throng, But I cannot vote that way. With, the party strong, though the cause be wrong, My vote will still be cast, Though want and woe in streams may flow, And whiskey rule at last. The widow's groan and the orphan's moan Shall not affect my will; I will pity them, though, and tell them so, But vote for whiskey still. Cause and Effect* During tlie session of the Dominion parliament recently closed tho question of Liquor vs. The Public Good came up on more than ono occasion, and various phases and issues wero discussed and voted upon. Our representative, Mr. Ohisholm, soized every such opportunity to record his vote on the side of liquor and against morality and the publio weal. Ho might, it is true, with a very good grace, have remained neutral on such a question as imposing wino and beer on tho Scott Act counties of eastern Canada. But, no; his instincts and sympathies aro so ineradicably bound up with tho business which has been to him livelihood and occupation, that it has become second nature for him to aid and nbett the noxious traffic whenever possiblo. Such is our representative to the Dominion parliament! Does ho represent the temperanco and moral sentiment of his constituency? We should hope not. Is thore any temperance and moral sentiment in his constituency? Ask us something easy; consult iL-ii-jiSi returns u*"t4«. .*â... *-.. minion election for this district; figures can't lie. At the last meeting of the city council, after various vicissitudes nnd many hair-breadth 'scapes, a by-law for the bettor observance of tho Sabbath, providing mainly for the closing of Bnloons, and likewise barber shops, &c, on Sundayâcertainly most worthy in its objects and desirable in its intended resultsâcame before thut august body, and was killed in cold blood in committee of the whole, before tho rending of the second clause, tho mayor himself, it appears, being an accessory before the faetl Ono naturally inquires: Does Westminster still desire to continue to flaunt hor disgrace to the publio gazo as a law-defying, Sabbath - desecrating, whisky - dominated community? The largely and influen- tially signed petition in favor of Sunday closing recently presented to the city fathers would seem to indicate to the contrary, Wby, then, is the wish of the people not respected'i Why is their will not carried out? Let tbo ballot boxes speak, and disclose thoir secrets! Somebody turns traitor at the polls! Temperance people do not always "voto as they pray;" and whiskey-politicians und time-servers know iti From all tho experience in tho premises, it may fairly bo doubted if any quarter can be expected fur temperance snd moral reform in tho city statutes from some of our present council. One of these gentlemenâa licensed victualler, by the way (just think of it, 0, civilized world, Westminster sends licensed victuallers to parliament and puts them in her councils!)âremarked that tho Sunday by-law would tend to ruin the town! The gentlemen above- referred to may have plausible, and possibly good, reasons for their late action on'tho Sunday by-law. They will probibly havo an opportunity before tlie- next civic election to demonstrate the sincerity of their protestations. We hope they may be nblo to satisfactorily acquit themselves. But, honor to whom honor is due; Tho outspoken stand taken in the council by Couns, Ourtis, Duncan, Reid, and Shiles shows plainly their attitude toward temperance and moral reform. Lot the electors make a note of these things, and at the next municipal election support such men, and weed out all whisky-politicians and time-servers. Rev. Dr. Talmage stated, after his recent trip through the Western States: " I interviewed all the reporters and aU tbe clergymen, and all the doctors and all the merchants, and all the mechanics and all the farmers whom I met, and the unanimous testimony is that in Kansas and Iowa -prohibition Jrohibiti.

"Treatment by Absorption has for some time been recognized by Medical Men to be the mosL simple and effectual means of conveying to Diseased Otgnns, "Curatives," but In oases of Kidney Disease and Complaints attendant thereon, successful treatment was practicably Impossible until the introduction of tho Starr Kidney Pod.

In this pungent, easily appreciable, and artistic style of presenting a subject, the wholo situation is revealed at. a gin nee. The success of GripShofffl how well this fact is appreciatedâits Cartoons on the passing political events of the country being even more eagerly sought after than the chaste and humorous letter-press of the paper,â though the latter Is equal to that of any similar publication on the continent.

ON THE 10TH OP JANUARY. 1887, the Columbian Newspaper and Printing Concern wns purchased by a joint stock company composed of citizens cf New Westminster, to bo known as tbe " British Columbian Printing Co., Limited." Tho concern has beon for nearly a year owned and controlled by the British Columbia Stationery and Printing Company, of New Westminster, Victoria ond Vancouver. The object of tlio now company is to oontinue the publication of tho British Colombian newspaper and carry on a general printing and publishing concern, controlled entirely by those whoso individual interest it will be to promote the development, especially of the Mainland. There will be no slackening of the energy hitherto displayed in the management of the establishment, and ita natrons may rely upon receiving full valuo for their monoy. The Colombian will continue to be entirely independent in both Dominion and provincial politics, and will devote itself to the advancement of snch schemes as may bo considered in tho public interest. The concern is now entirely separate from any other business, tho book and stationery establishment in thia city having been taken ovor by Mr. T. R. Pearson, who will continue to carry it on in Mb own name and for His own benefit. It is desirable that a dally newspaper should be maintained in this city, and the new company asks for public patronage on the ground that It ia engaged in an entorpriso calculated to promote the public welfare. It asks that the Columbian bo judged on its own merits and supported only so long tu its policy is enconsistt with its professions. In con* sequence of this business change all ao* counts duo the concern must bo settled without iklay so that the books of the former company may bo adjusted and dosed.

It is hoped that others who oan do so will send contributions of tha same kind. The Y.M.C.A. rooms are quite comfortable and at* tractive, and the library ought to be such aa to invite those who have op* port unities for availing themselves of its advantage!. TetEfHONB Co.

The following officers were elected for the ensuing 'year: President and man ager, J, 0. Armstrong;.sec-treas., W. MoColl j board of directors: J. 0. Arm* strong, E. S. Scoullar, S. T. Mcintosh, Jno.

JoWMMbg Of all kind* neatly done at the Columkan office. Prices will be found as low as at any other office In Abe province,~Adv, Unprincipled Jouknalihm.âReferring to tho Times libel cafle, the Guardian plainly insinuates that the apology was made at the solicitation of the provincial seorotary and tho Times wns paid for it! In other words, the provincial secretary dare not go on with the case and bribed the Times to mako an apology. Isn't this carrying tho thing a littlo too far? The taker of a bribe is equally guilty with the giver of it, and we are sure tho Times will properly resent thia insult to itself nnd the provincial secretary. Smut Down.âAll hands in tho Hastings mill at Vancouver, with the exception of two or three, have been paid off and the mill closed down. It is learnod that the old lease having expired the lessees do not seo their wny to renew at the old figureâ$20,000 per annum; and it is hardly likely that other parties will euro to take tho plant, etc., at the rental named. This will throw a considerable number of men out of employment, which is a regrettable circumstance at a time when the labor market is bo overstocked ns at present.âColonist. .â. » .»,,»-,..... . Prosperous Spallumcheen.â Dr. C. E. C. Brown who returned yesterday from an extended trip through Okanagan and Spallumcheen, states that this season will be one'of prosperity in those regions. Thero has been an abundant rainfall and consequently a rich harvest is looked for. Along the banks of the Spallumcheen River may be seen thousands of acres covered with nearly ripe fall wheat, which gives promise of yielding 50 bushels to the acre. Pasture is good on the ranges and hills and the inhabitants of the interior aro sanguine that good times are ahead. Bought a Gaol.âAt 11 o'olock today Mr. Chas. Warwick, government agent, offered the old Westminster gaol and its contents for sale at public auction. There was a moderately good attendance of spectators, but tho only persoiiB who manifested any ambition to become possessors of n gaol wero Messrs. McCrady and Latham. After a spirited contest the concern was knocked down to Mr. Latham for $36-50âcheap onough for a gaol, but probably all it was worth. The building was erected in 1861, and is one of the old landmarks of the city, very few of whioh now remain, , Street Watering. â Many complaints are being made about the dust on Columbia and Front streets. The watering cart continued its operations long enough to demonstrate tho advantages of street watering, and since it has been taken off the whole street cries out. It has beon suggested that tbe street watering ought to be under* taken by the council, the same as street lighting, The tax upon merchants amounts to a considerable sum, and it might be quite proper for the council to pay a part of it at leastâsay. $50 per month during the dry season. We hope some action will be taken at once, for it is urgently needed. A High Compliment.âNext to Queen Victoria, the woman most talked about in England in these jubilee times is Miss Agatha Ramsay, the winner of the first place in tho Cain- bridge classical examination Miss Ramsay, who is only 20 years old, has distanced all of the mala students, although she has studied Greek only four jears. These achievements, which are likely to lead to to tho immediate admission of women to the Oxford and Cambridge university degrees, have dealt a staggering blow to the theory tenaciously adhered to in those institutions that the intellect of woman is inferior to that of a man,âExclwnge, Mi;* Agatha Ramsay U cousin to Mr. H. V. Edmonds, of this city. Misleading.âIn his issue of this morning our friend of the Vancouver Hews undertakes to lecture Ihe coun* oil and citizens uf Westminster in relation to the 975,000 loan by-law, and displays n very great lack of knowledge in doing to. It U nut true that there was uuderhand work in connection with the introduction or completion of the by-law. It is nut correct to say that "tho votes of a number of persons who were supposed to he > nposcd to the loan were refused." Votes were refused on tho ("round of the legal opinion of Messrs. Cu: tumid & McColl who held that under the law no person was entitled to vote who had not paid his taxes before the 2nd of December last, and the application of this rule cut off indiscriminately those in favor of the by law as well as those opposed to it. There is little doubt but the bylaw would have been carried in nny any event Our Vancnuvor ootemporary has evidently been instructed hy some person whose opposition to the law led him to regard with suspicion everything (hat did not forward his own particular views.

The new freight rates fur British Columbia which came into operation on tho first of tho presont month show a largo reduction on old rateB. Freight is graded into semi-classes. Taking Yale ns an example of the reduction which is 100 miles from Westminster, we find the rateB in the different classes are por 100 lbs: 57c., 48, 38,29, 26,22, 17,18, 21, 15. Former rates to the same place were: 106, 88, 70, 92, 48, 41, 42, 41, 32, 34, 38, 27. Coal per ton, new rate, S2 50. Old rate, §5.40. To Kamloops, 250 mile: 109, 01,73, 55, 49, 42, 30, 31, 42, 25. Old rates, $1.84, §1.54, 81.22, 02, 82, 00, 50, 53, 09, 41; coal, per ton, new rate, $4.20; â old rate, $8.20. To Donald, 458 miles: $1.80, 1.50, 1.20, 90, 81, 70, 48, 40, 06, 41, Old rateB: $2.00, 2.22, 1.78, 1.34, 1.20, 1.02, 72, 50. Coal per ton, new rate: $7.10; old rate, $11.80. This will givft the reader an idea of the largo reduction which has been made, in eome cases over 100 per cent. Tho other places within the province are in proportion to tho rates given.â Herald.
