Hulett who la under arrest in Brantford charged by\nJ.D. Sibbald with theft was brought\nbefore the council through a letter\nfrom George S. McCarter, city solicitor, who reported thut he had investigated the charge and was ot the\nopinion that a prima facie case\nagainst Hulett existed. In that case\nthe duty of prosecution rested with\nthe city and the city should pay the\nexpense of bringing Hulett back for\ntrial, he said.\nH. M. Parry, chief of police, was\nsummoned and explained that a\nwarrant was sworn out and that iu\npursuance of his duty and acting ou\ninstructions he had* traced Hulett and\nsecured his arrest.\nTbe cost of bringing Hulett back\nwas estimated at some 33 OO. In the\nahsenc..' ol the mayor it was decided\nto deter action until the next meet\ning of the council.\nAid Smythe gave notice of a bylaw to regulate the milk traffic. His\nidea waB that? the medical health officer should test the milk. Consumers\nhe said, did not know whether they\nwere drinking water or milk, Some\ndairies lie declared were insanitary.\nAid. Bourne said that the city already had a mill; bylaw and thut the\ngovernment sent inspectors to visit\nthe dairies.\nAid.

T. Muse, a rancher living on his\nhomestead four and one halt miles\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0south of RevelBtoke committed\nsuicide on Tuesday night by cutting\nhis throat With a butcher knife. It\nappears that thc 'act was committed\nj in his house ufter which he walked\n! out of the house toward the trail but\n' fell down. He arose and began to\n! retrace his steps but died before\n' reaching the house. He had evidently\nj been preparing for bed as the body\nwas clothed 'only in under garments.\nThe knife with which the suicide was\ncommitted was dull but tbe wound\nwas deep although not lonf.\nThe body was found lying just outside the door of the house on Wednesday afternoon. by a son of Thomas\nNicol, a neighboring rancher, who\nhappened to be passing, The boy\nwent home and told his father who\nsummoned Charles Lonnard and afterwards W. Burn, neighbors, and the\npolice were notified. J.H. Hamilton,\ncoroner, provincial constable Rothwell, R. Howson and Daniel Leary\nwent to the scene in an automobile\non Wednesday evening and brought\nthc body to Howson & Co's. undertaking parlors. As it wns evidently a\n] case of suicide, no inquest was deemed necessary.\nMuse was an Englishman, Jo years\nof age who lived alone on his homestead. He was engaged to be married\nto a girl in England and It is be-\nI lieved that a disappointment in the\nlove affair led him to take his Hie.\nHe kept himself much to himself and\nlately had appeared silent and\nmorose. His home was a comfortable\nIol' house some '11 by 2\" feet in size\ni nd he was not in financial need as\n;>'I00 was found on thn body. He had\narranged to cnlargo thc house in preparation for his marriage next\nspring.\nOn Tuesday Muse had been in Revelstoke and on Tuesday evening be\nI visited Wis neighbor Charles Leonard\nwhere he shaved himself. Apparently\nhe committed suicide immediately on\nbis return home.\nMuse formerly lived in Vancouver\ni where two sisters are now living. He\ntook up his homestead about 18\nmonths ago and had done some clearing as well as erected .( house.\n1 F. G. Roper, a brother-in-law of\nj deceased has arrived in the city. The\ninterment will take place at the Revolstoke cemetery.\nLITTLE GIRL\nGIVES DOLLS\nWill be Raffled in Aid of Funds\nof Revelstoke Relief\nSociety\nA set of beautiful dolls intended as\na Christmas present for Rosemary\n1'rutt hnve been generously given by\nher to the Relief society and will be\nradled, the proceeds going to the\nfunds of the society.\nThe set consists of six dolts any\none of which would delight the heart\nof a child and with the dolls are\ncradle and other articles which children delight in.\nOne large baby doll is dressed like\na real baby und has everything a\nbaby can need including a toilet basket and a large cradle sumptuously\nequipped, Another doll wh'ich will attract much attention is a soldier\nwith a war kit including every article\nmade for the soldiers by the relief\nsociety.

Smythe's ranch and stole all\nbis prize birds. The birds were particularly valuable having taktnmany\nprizes at the com detente,\nAustrian population fleei toward!\nV ienna.\nMilitary expert! ^..v i.irmans hnve\nlost two third* ol irmy in Poland.\nShould Public Utilities\nbe State Owned\nShould public utilities be state\nowned? was thoroughly discussed,\npro. and con., by the debating\nsociety, which met in the Y.M.C.A.\nlast evening. C. Somerville, W. Leslie and H.N. Coursier defended the\naffirmative side oi the question and\nJ. M. Paterson, J. Gordon and A.\nBennett the negative.\nThese are some of the (taints\nbrought out by thc affirmative.\nTake as examples of public utilities\nthe schools, power and lightiug\nplants, telephone and tek'graph systems, the postal system, the army\nand navy, roads and bridges. These\nare all state owned and are a success. The railroads in this country\nare not state owned. As a result we\nhave more money being spent on ruil-\nroads than is necessary. Lines are\nrun side by side for competition,\nwhere us state owned railroads could\nLe diverted over more territory. We\nwould get service instead ol profit.\nThe parcel post system, operated by\nthc state is a cheaper and more convenient means of sending parcels than\nhe express. The express companies\nure privately owned. '\nIn response the negative side point-\nid out thut government ownership\nwas the cause of graft. In Great Britain the telephone and telegraph systems are state owned. The systems\ncaunot compare with the privately\nowned syst'.'ms in America. In England there is oue telephone per thousand inhabitants and you can very\noften send a messenger more quickly\nthau yon cun telephone. In the United .States there are 15 telephones per\nthousand inhabitants and it takes a\nfew seconds to telephone fiom New\nVork to Philadelphia. Take the rail-\nroads, competition is the cause of\nthe elaborate accommodation provided by our roads. Take our post\noffices, their management is olten a\ndisgrace, tlie employees are Bome-\ntlmei incupnlfl\" and certainly do not\nalways serve the public as they\nwould if the system \u00C2\u00ABere privately\nowned. Many other interesting points\n.vi. brought out by both sides. The\naudience was decidedly in favor of\nthe negative.\nTho subject for next Friday's meeting us \"The Irish are a more humorous race than the Scotch,\" and tho\nspeakers will bc as follows.For affirmative, W.M, Lawrence, A Thomson,\nS. Gordon. For negative, B.R. Atkins\nA Itoss, I.S.

Lawrence, president Law-\njicnco Hardware Company, \u00E2\u0080\u0094\"I believe' the city should have a market\nbut I do not believe m spending so\nlarge a sum at the present time. I\ndo not think there are sufficient farmers in the district yet to require so\nlarge an area. It seems to me that\nsufficient room might he found between the tool shed and the police\nstation for the present.\"\nJ. G. Barber, ex-alderman and\nmayoralty candidate, \"The situation\nof the proposed market site is a good\none. No more convenient locality\ncould be chosen.'A new police station\nand fire hull will soon be required\nand the land that it is proposed to\nbuy would be s iltable for that pur-\nrose, if it can b ised. 1 believe the\ncity should have a public market.\"\nS. Holmes, \"Th* proposed market\nBite is in a good position. It is central and of good size. The city could\nobtain same revenue from market\ntolls which would help to lighten the\ncost.\"\nC. B Hume, ex-alderman and president C.B. Hume Company, Limited,\n\"I do not think th\".t the city is justified in spending $10,500 for a murket\nsite at the present time.\"\nRev. C. A. Procunier, \"Certainly 1\nthink the city should have a market\nsite. It would do much to stimulate\nthe agricultural industry. 1 think\nthe proposed site is most suitable for\nthe purpose.\"\nMany Prizes Won\nat\nHaodsome Contributions\nPoultry Show to Patriotic Fund\nRevelstoke poultry breeders won\nremarkable success at the Revelstoke\n& Arrow Lakes poultry show held\nat Nakusp on Wednesday and Thursday, Winning ifl first prizes, ll second and 10 thirds.

GORDON\nRegistrar.\nGood Work Accomplished\nby Relief Society\nIn thc past few months the Revelstoke Relief society haB made appeals\nto the citizens for assistance in their\nvarious projects, and ouch time received a generous response. In the\nfuture, and in view of the approaching hard winter time they will appeal to the generosity of tho public\nagain, and before doing so felt that\na little publicity given the Relief\nsociety\u00E2\u0080\u0094Its objects and attainments\nwould not come amiss.\nThe Relief society is the outcome of\na request made by the daughters of\nthe empire, to the people of Revelstoke to assist ln raising funds to\nequip a hospital ship to care for the\ndick and wounded In this present\ngreat war. The ladies of the city\nloyally took up the work of raising\nwhat funds they could to help this\nworthy caiiHc. The public meeting\nwas held on August 10, and in a little over 21 hours the sum of $.->3ll.(l0\nhad been collected.\nAt a meeting called in the city hall\non the atternoon of Weilnesduy, Aug.\n12, it was decided that In View of the\nfact that the amount gathered was\ntor in excess of all anticipation, and\na greater proportion than that considered to be Revelstoke's share in\nthe equipment of the hospital ship, it\nwas finullv decided to send $800.00 of\nthis money to the Daughters of the\nEmpire, the balance to be held at\nhome to meet future demands which\nmight occur during the progress of\nthe war.\nAt this meeting it was also decided to organize a society to help in\nall possible ways the dependents of\nsoldiers going to the front, and to\ngive assistance along the lines of Red\nCross work.\nConsequently a third meeting was\nheld in the city hall on August 17,\nand the RevelstoKe Relief society was\nformed with an executive as follows:\nPresident,\u00E2\u0080\u0094Mrs. T. Kilpatrick.\nVice-president,\u00E2\u0080\u0094Mrs. G.S.' McCarter\nSecretary,\u00E2\u0080\u0094Mrs. H. H. McVity.\nTreas.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Mrs. Ernest H. S. McLean.\nThe object of the society was outlined in a few words. \"To relieve\nneeds of any kind that arises In\nconnection with the war.\"\nThe society has, to date, a paid-up\nmembership of 72, but this is a very\nmeagre proportion of the women that\nshould belong and an urgent Invitation is extended to any woman in the\ncity to join the society and assist ln\nthe work it is doing.\nIn the months that have followed\nthe women have met each Wednesday\nafternoon at the Y.M.C.A., where the\nmembers are kept busy serving or\nknitting to supply the needs of the\nsoldiers and the business of the society Is discussed.\nIn connection with the _ Relief\nsocietv a branch of the St. John's\nAmbulance corps has been started\nand the class meets once a week and\ntakes the \"first aid\" Instructions, In\nwhich splendid progress is being\nmade.\nEver since the formation of tho\nsociety the men doing; sentry duty\nalong thc ruilroad have been provided with literature. Each man that\nhas left town has been provided .tlO.\nOn November 13 and 11, the ladles\ntook charge of the department store\ncf Messrs C.B. Hume & Co,, and conducted a patriotic sale, the result being most satisfactory to all the percentage received from this amounting\nto over $100,\nOn November 20 a putriotic concert\nwas held in the opera house, the\namount realized from this being in\nthe .neighborhood of $29(1,no. The\namounts received from these various\nventures at lirst glance look large,\nbut when one stops to consider thc\nexpenditures necessary to carry on\nthe work tlie society is doing, wonder will soon cease and all will be\nready to render assistance as before.\nA patriotic sale wns under way yesterday and ThurBdav in the store of\nH.

They\nhave been abroad since the war he-\ni-an, and i\u00C2\u00BB many countries have\n-..I,- unsparing use. of their greut re-\nsources ind their potent arts, but\nthey cannot stay the process of dis-\nUlusionmenl c.ermeiny long Imposed\nupon the world. She was accepted at\nber 'Wil estimate. Her neighbors\nyielded her the respect due to a nation of high honor. Tbey rsgarded\nher as worthy ol the trust she held in\nloranion with themselves for the upholding if civilization. They were\neven disposed to admit hei claims to\nbe foremost in leadership along certain lines ot world progress. Her\nculture was not questioned. The war\nhas exposed her, and has opened the\neyes of her neighbors, it has rubbed\nv fl thc veneer of her culture, and reveals her as u barbarian of quite\nScythian vicioU6ness.\nThe time 'is at hand when the scales\nwill fall from the eyes of the German people themselves nnd they will\nsee in its true character the system\ntheir war lord hus built up. When\nthe German war machine loses prestige with thc German people, what a\ndownfall there will be! As long as\nthe army was a thing of pomp nnd\neplendor, and passed for an invincible\nhost, the German people rendered\nhomae; to it. When they behold it\nfalling back upon their soil before\nadvancing armies, a mere wreck of\nits tortner greatness, they will be\ntilled rather with resentment against\nit than with compassion Ior it. The\nresults of militarism will then hnve\ncome home to them. The flower of\ntheir country's manhood will have\nbeen sacrificed, tbeir trade and industry ruined, and their national\ngreatness e^plodtd. The most abused\nand unforgiving victims ol Kaiserism\nwill be the Kaiser's own subjects. As\nthe reverses of war become greater,\nthe troubles at home will increase,\nan.l apolitical revolution is not un.\nhkelj to be an early sequel of the\nwar machine's failure. It already begins to appear to the German people\nthat none bat the maddest of leaders\nwould have iroiuht their country into a war w.th so many and so powerful adversaries.\nFROM THE SANCTUMS\nHE KNOWS\nEdmonton Journal The proprietors of Pears' soap should know something of the value of advertising,\nhaving tested it as probably no others have, and they do rot belong to\n.smess men who believe that ti.-;: appropriations should\nbe cut down in times .

From Rossland he went\nto Trail, where in 1901 he was appointed chief of police, city clerk and\ncity assessor. This position he held\nuntil 1!)07, when he waS(_ appoints\nchief provincial constable at Nelson\nwith supervision over 23 officers.\nHe was largelv Instrumental in the\ncapture at Salt Lake City, Utah, of\nCcdio, the black hand bandit who\nblew up a hotel at Niagara, near\nGrand Forks, killing one girl and\nwounding seven Cedto was hn.nged at\nKamloops after n trial at Greenwood\nwhere he was prosecuted by Hon. W.\nJ, Bowser, attorney general. For his\nwork in this Instance Chief Devitt\nwas highly commended nnd was afterwards appointed to the provincial\npolice at Nakusp with the position\nalso of mining recorder.\nTale of Old Cabin\nand Find nf Gnld\nj\nMore than fifty years ago a placer\nminer built a very substantial cabin\nnear the moueh ot Rock Creek. He\nmade adobe bricks and built a chimney with two fireplaces. The work was\nwell done, and the prospector had\nevidently learned the bricklaying\ntrade. He also built a large cellar\nunderneath the building. For years\nthe building was used as a store. One\nnight it burned down all by the chimney. This was left standing, and as\nthe fire had changed the abode into\nreal bricks, a n;w building was built\naround and to the standing chimney.\nIn 1--73 Price & Nicholson kept a\nstore in this building, selling all\nUnds of goods for fur and gold dust.\nThey continually packed goods from\nJune to November over the Hope\ntrail. Price was fond of Bass' ale,\nand so was the judge. In order to\nsatisfy th;ir desire for the amber\nHiud tbey imported 24 cases from\nEngland in 1878, storing half of lt\nat their store in Keremeos, and the\nbalance underneath the shop at Rock\nCreek. One fine monning the Judge\nheard a great crash, and making his\nway to the cellar he found that owing to the rott'jn condition of the\nuprights tha shelves had given way,\nflooding the place with ale and broken bottles. Only six bottles were saved intact. This was a sad sight for\nthe judge and his partner. But let us\ndraw a vrfl over that calamity of the\nearly days.\nA man with a lantern was sent into the cellar to carry out the dead\nmarines,put in new posts and shelves\nand sprinkle the floor with Florida\nwater. While digging a hole for a new\npost he saw gold glittering in the\nlight of the lantern. He took a hand-\nfuil and showed It to the judge. Mr.\nNicholson filled a pan with the dirt,\ncarrying the yellow stuff and washed\nit in the creek. That was the lichest\npan of gold ever panned in Rock\nCreek. It went $8.r>7 to the pan. The\nChinamen standing around became\nexcited and obtaining permission thev\ncleaned up the cellar and secured $ 150\nPieces of rotten buckskin proved that\nthe find was a forgotten cache. The\ngold was different from that found\nalong Rock Creek and evidently had\ncome from Idaho. Okanagan Smith,\nof Osoyoos claimed the gold, saying\nthat he had been robbed of that\namount. This did not go with the\njudge, for he dimply wrote a brief letter to Smith Baying, \"Finders keepers.\"\nHalf of the members of thc University of New Brunswick football team,\nchampions of thc Intecollegiate Football League of the Maritime Provinces of 1014, have volunteered for\nactive service nnd will go to the\nfront with the second Canadian overseas expeditionary army.
