" I *\n,\nha-c\nOl\nA Weekly Newspaper Published in the interests of the Settlers, and to promote the development of the Queen Charlotte Islands.\nVOL. 3, No. 50\nMASSETT, GRAHAM ISLAND, B.C., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3. 1914\n5 Cents per Copy-\nThrilling Escape\nFrom German Empire\nW. T. Hillier, Formerly Operator at\nDead Tree Point, Relates His\nExperiences.\nFollowing exciting experiences in\nescaping from Germany after the receipt of Great Britain's ultimatum to\nBerlin, Mr. W. T. Hillier, formerly in\ncharge of the Dominion wireless station\nat Dead Tree Point, returned to Victoria a few days ago. Probably the\nmost thrilling episode of which he was\nan eyewitness, says the Victoria Daily\nColonist, was the shooting, without\ntrial, of forty Russians by German\nsoldiers.\nMr. Hillier was undergoing treatment\nat Wiesbaden and intended spending\nthree more weeks there, when, following\nthe declaration of war against Russia\nand the wanton invasion of Luxemburg\nterritory by German troops, Britain\nsent her ultimatum to Berlin. \" Immediately,\" Mr. Hillier says, \"the\npassions of the populace became inflamed against England. An unholy joy\nseemed to pervade the people of Wiesbaden. On all sides I heard expressions\nof opinion that Germany feared no one.\nThe more foes she made the better\nthe people seemed'pleased. I saw placards posted up in the town with the\nlegend ' The Kaiser will be Emperor of\nEurope and America.' I saw forty\nRussians, many of them peaceable visitors to Wiesbaden, on the outbreak of\nwar arrested as spies, led out into the\npublic square and shot. Their shrift\nwas of the shortest. They were given\nno trial. Soon I was warned to leave\nthe town as were all Britishers and\nAmericans. When I went to take my\ntrain I saw two ladies on the platform\nassaulted by the populace, their clothes\ntorn off by an infuriated mob, who believed they were Russian spies in disguise. The ladies, I think, were two\nAmericans, but I was not sure of their\nnationality. On the day I left I saw\nnumbers of wounded brought into Wiesbaden from Luxemburg. At Cologne,\nwhere I and other refugees were taken\nfrom Wiesbaden, we were lined up on\nthe platform by troops. Some tried to\nescape and I was one of those successful. I made my way to the Cologne\nbridge, with what object in view I\nhardly know, but I found it guarded by\nsoldiers and had to retrace my steps.\nComing back by way of the railway\ntrack I found a baggage car open and\nhid there among the trunks. Shortly\nafterwards the train to which this car\nwas attached left the station and I got\nas far as Dusseldorf, where some of the\ntrunks were removed and I was found\nby the guard. I offered him 150 marks\nin paper money if he would allow me to\nproceed, but he refused. He took the\nmoney from me and searched me for\nwhatever else I had, taking the 240\nmarks in gold, which was all the money\nI possessed. He then allowed me to\nproceed and I found my way to a village\nin Holland a few miles beyond the frontier. From there I went to Flushing and\ntook a boat to England.\n\"In passing through Cologne I saw\nthat the famous cathedral there was\ndisplaying searchlights for the purpose\nof locating the enemy's aerial craft,\nwhile cannons for firing on these had\nbeen mounted on the cathedral. I saw\nmany Zeppelins, and while I am not\nversed in aviation I doubt the efficiency\nof these airships in war. Whenever I\nsaw them they were flying low and presented an easy mark to hostile guns.\nPeople outside Germany can hardly\nrealize the lengths to which her mobilization has gone. Every male person\nfrom the age of 17 to 55 or 60 has been\nsummoned to the colors. The street\ncars are being run by women and girls.\nAs far as I could gather the entire\nGerman campaign against France is being directed from Mainz.\n\"On the way from Flushing to England I was privileged to see a great\nBritish fleet, comprising battle cruisers,\n.cruisers and torpedo boats, on its way\nto the North Sea. In England I found\neverything very quiet. The people\nshowed a deadly earnestness in their\nwar preparations. Of course the war\nhas greatly interrupted business and 90.\nper cent, of the large firms are only\nworking hslf time. There were large\nnumbers of Canadians in London and\nelsewhere in Great Britain and the last\nof these will not be able to return to\nthe Dominion until some time in October,\nso great is the rush across the Atlantic.\nNo emigrants are allowed to leave the\ncountry.\"\nMr. Hillier's experiences are particularly unfortunate because at the time\nhe waa forced to leave he was within\nthree weeks of completing a special\ntreatment for the eyes, which he anticipated would have completely cured\nthe affection from which he was suffering. He will be transferred to the Ikeda\nBay station shortly.\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0 o\t\nThanksgiving Day.\nA dispatch from Ottawa states that\nThursday, 8th October, will be proclaimed as Thanksgiving Day in the\nnext issue of the Canada Gazette. The\nGovernment has decided to revert this\nyear to the old custom of having Thanksgiving Day on Thursday, instead of\nMonday, as has been the case in the\nlast five or six years.\n o\t\nMiss Cross and Miss Hastie were in\ntown yesterday from Port Clements.\nWell Informed Captain\nReported With Leipzig.\nThere has been a report in circulation\nfor some days to the effect that a\nmariner who for several years was in\ncommand of a steamer that called at\nQueen Charlotte Islands points has\njoined the German cruiser Leipzig and\nis informing the commander of the\nenemy's craft of the nature of British\nColumbia's coast line. The captain arrived on this coast from Germany in\nthe early days of the sealing industry\nand /or some years was engaged in the\ncousivvise steamship busine s.\nThe report current states that the\nskipper joined the Leipzig while she\nwas at San Francisco. If this rumor is\ncoivect the commander of the German\nwar vessel has at his disposal some very\nuseful information. The captain reported to be on board the Leipzig knows\nth'sport very well, and is familiar with\nall points about the coast hereabouts.\nThe skipper in question returned recently from the Behring Sea.\n-n-\nLocal Men At Valcartier.\nIndian Agent Thomas Deasy received\nthe following letter from Lewen Tugwell, one of our pre-emptors, who left\nhis location to serve King and country:\n\" B Company, 11th Royal Trish Fusilers,\nValcartier, Quebec, Aug. 30,1914.\nDear Mr. Deasy:\u00E2\u0080\u0094As you will see\nfrom the above, I managed to get with\nthe first contingent. I was only Justin\ntime and had to go off without saying\ngood-bye to mother. Capt. Jenkins is\nacting Lieutenant of the company I am\nin. The men all like him very much.\nAt present the drill just consists of\nlearning to march and handle a rifle and\nis not very interesting. Everyone expects we shall get orders to go to Alder-\nshot in a few days; but, of course, no\norders are published.\nLewen Tugwell.\"\n o\t\nPrince Albert Pulled Off Rocks.\nThe S S. Prince Albert was successfully floated off the Butterworth Rocks\nlast week. She has been patched up\nsatisfactorily and with a few repairs\nthat will be made in Prince Rupert she\nwill be able to go south for permanent\nrepairs under her own steam.\n o\t\nFOR SALE.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Smoked salmon, 20c.\nper lb.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Apply John Smith, Old Masset.\nMrs. Barton and her two boys are in\ntbwn from Port Clements.\nMassett Hospital\nSociety Organized.\n. ^\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nA meeting was held on Tuesday night\nat the St. Ives Hotel for the purpose\nof organizing a society in connection\nwith the Massett Hospital.

This decrease\nin the time of water shipments from the\nWest to the East coast of the United\nStates means much to domestic commerce, and undoubtedly the trade will\ngrow rapidly as its benefits become apparent. The great canal is in working\norder, and the fact that it is open for\nbusiness a year ahead of time speaks\nvolumes for American enterprise and\nfor the skill and unswerving diligence\nof the American army engineers. The\nPanama Canal is the achievement of the\ncentury, and its growing use would be\nwatched with keener interest if the\ngreat European war did not demand\nfirst place in popular attention.\nThe Prince Rupert Board of Trad,e\nmust not run away with the idea that\nthe whole business of this Northern\ncountry depends on furnishing goods to\nthe people along the railway line. They\nforget that a large number of islands\nare situate in the immediate neighborhood of that city, and the residents require communication, direct, and at intervals that mean no delay. We wonder\nif the peopl of Seattle or Vancouver\nwould overlook the islands in the neighborhood of those cities, as we are\ntreated? A fortnighly steamer means\nto the islands that it takes no longer to\nobtain goods from Vancouver than it\ndoes from Prince Rupert. Of course a\nlarge number of the Prince i Rupert\nfirms are but branches of Vancouver\nhouses; but there are independent business men, who should not lose sight of\nthe coming trade of the Queen Charlotte Islands. With only eighty-five\nmiles intervening, it is not to the credit\nof Prince Rupert that a fortnightly\nsteamer is considered sufficient for the\ntrade that the large city could do with\nthese islands.\nWhat is wanted on these islands are\nmen who have a small amount of capital\nand who would engage in the salting and\nsmoking of fish all the year round.\nThere is also a large business to be\nopened up in shell fish. Off Langara\nIsland, the herring are found in large\nnumbers and halibut can be caught the\nyear round.
