Tools could be\nborrowed from the government agent\nfor the time being.\nFred C rlisle and about-80 others\npetitioned to have the tax on wash-\nhouses abolished, as it wns working\na hardship on two poor women, and\nasking to have outside laundries doing business here taxed instead.\nMayor York stated the council in\npassing the license bylaw bad no intention of working a hardship on\nanyone, but the city must hare laws.\nIt was necessary to protect the city\nagainst thc invasion of Asiatic wash-\nhouses.

The city would obtain\npossession of the pipes when a proper\ncivic system is installed. Mayor\nYork advised the question again being laid over a week, so as to notify\nthe parties interested.\nThe clerk was authorized, on motion of Aid.

It Is strange, however,\nhow near to the truth a mere surmlsa\nmay sometimes draw. That James\nMelvln was a fugitive from the law\nwas a fact and that some of tbe other\nsurmises smacked strongly of tbe truth\nwere also facts.\nAll at once at this point the attention\nof the villagers was drawn away from\nJames Melvln and fixed on another\nsubject Mrs. Sparks had come dashing In among them, ber face pale and\nhaggard a_d her eyes wet with tears.\n\"Whar's my old man?\" she cried.\n\"Whar's Ebenezer?

He saw\nthat Mrs. Sparks was Intensely in earnest aud sorely troubled, and be pitied\nber. Everybody knew Ebenezer Sparks\nwag a braggart and a coward\u00E2\u0080\u0094every\nbody except his wife, tbe one person\nwho sliould have known It better than\nany one else on earth.\nThe blind, unreasoning faith some\nwives repose In their husbands would\nbe ridiculous were lt not so pathetic,\nand Mrs. Sparks was of that class.\n\"I guess you ain't got no call to be\nskeered about Ebenezer, Mrs. Sparks,\"\nHicks remarked presently. \"You can\nJest bet be ain't gone to jlne no war\nau that he'll turn up here tbe fust\nthing you know.\"\nThe woman shook ber head.\n\"You can't fool me,\" ahe replied.\n\"You uns all don't know Ebenezer like\nI do.

He\nwas shy, an he wouldn't tell you all\nthem things, but ho told 'em to me.\"\nEven Hicks smiled at this. He could\nnot help It when he remembered how\noften Ebenezer, sitting by the store\nstove of winter evenings, had boasted\nof his brave exploits tn war and yearned, as a sick child yearns for Its mother, for a chance to repeat them. Ebon-\nezer's modesty, liko his bravery, waa a\nmere matter of assumption.\nJust at tbat moment a boy came running down tbe street In a high state of\nexcitement, and, stopping In front of\nthe group, panted out:\n\"You all better come an git Ebenezer Sparks outen the store cellar, 'cause\nif he stays thar much longer he'll be\ndeader 'an a mackerel He's most\nplayed out now, I guess.\"\nTbere wss a moment's silence; tben\nsevers! of the men broke Into a loud\nlaugh.

Unfortunately this was not always tho\ncase, as a few years ago Miss Dur-\nfce became ill, and her friends feared\nthat she was going into decline. A\ndoctor was called in and prescribed\nbut his mcdicineB did not have the\ndesired effect. Her strength gradually left her, her appetite failed, she\nhad frequent headaches, was very\npale, and finally grew so weak that\na walk of a few rods would coair\nplelely fatigue her. The young\nlady's family sorrowfully observed\nthat she was steadily failing, and\nfeared that consumption would claim\nher as a victim. One day a friond\nurged that she should give Dr. Williams' I'ink 1'ills a tria.1, but the\nIdea at first was not favorably entertained ; it seemed hopeless to expect that any medicine would help\nher after the doctor's treatment had\nfailed. However, this good friend\nstill urged, and finally prevailed.\nBy tho timo the third box was used,\nthere was an unmistakable improve-:\nment in Miss Durfee's condition.\nCheered by this, tho pills were continued, anh in the course of a few\nweeks the former invalid, whose\nStrength was taxed by thc slightest\nexertion, was almost restored to\nhealth. Tho use of the pills was\nstill continued and a few weeks more\nfound Miss Durfce again enjoying\nperleet health.\nTo a reporter who Interviewed h<*r,\nshe said :\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"1 believe lhat Dr. Williams' Pink rills savi-d my life, and\n1 earnestly recommend thoin to all\nwho fear that consumption has laid\nits grasp upon them.\"\nThat the facts related abovj are\nnot in uny way exaggerated, is\nborne out by the following slntcmcni\nfrom Hobt. G. Irwin, Esq., the well\nknown stipendiary magistrate for the\nmunicipality, who says:\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"I distinctly remember the pale face of Miss\nLillian Durfeo and the regr-sts of\nfriends as they expri'BSsxl their conviction that she would soon bo compelled to say farewell to earth. Miss\nDurfoe, however, carries the unmistakable credentials of good health,\nand frequently expresses her indebtedness to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.\"\nPale and anaemic girls, or young\npeople with consumptive tendencies,\nwill find renewed Dealt\u00E2\u0080\u0094 and bodily\nvigor through tho use of Dr. Williams' I'ink Pills.

The\n'horrid man.\nLocal fishermen complain bitterly\nofthe practice of using dvnamite\nadopted by some men in catching\nlish. Every promising hole in the\nriver and the mouths of all the\ncreeks on the lake have, it is claim\ned, been so devastated this past season, making it impossible to catch a\ndecent string. In the destruction of\nthe fish, there is being destroyed one\nof the leading attractions for tourists\n. to these parts. Pity men wouldn't\n'see things in tbat light and give the\nlovers of the rod a little enjoyment.\n'Using dynamite on fish is a reprehensible practice and should be suppressed ___________\nDr. Forin last week received the\nfollowing letter from W. L. Mackenzie. King, deputy minister of labor:\u00E2\u0080\u0094\n\"1 dejire to acknowledge a telegram\nfrom you, dated Slocan City. B C, 16th\nOctober, addressed to the Hon. Minister\nof Justice, and transferred today to this\ndepartment, which reads as follows:\n, 'Liberals assembled humbly petition government to enforce Alien Labor Act at\n- Rossland.' In reply to tiiis 1 beg to say\nthat the Attorney General is of the opinion tbat, as a precedent to his ordering\n.' the deportation of any alien, under the\n' Alien Labor Act aa amended at the last\nsession and at present iu force, there\nahould be a conviction establishing tbat\n* such alien was imported in violation of\n, the provisions of the Act. 1 enclose a\ncopy of a consolidation of the Acts to re-\n' strict the importation and employment\nof aliens, from section 3, of which you\n\" will see tiiat provision is made for the\nenforcement of the Act by interested\nparties. In regard to the alleged viola-\n. tion at Rossland. I may state that this\n' department bas had for some time past\n* special oflicer in Rossland, in order\n' that, in the event of convictions being\nobtained in accordance with the provis-\n\" ions of the Act, no avoidable delay may\nbe experienced in having the persons,\nconcerning whom convictions were made\n. speedily deported.\"\n' The government explains its position\nby the fact that the Alien Act was\namended last session, at the instance\nof Ralph Smith, by which the initial\nmovement in securing deportation of\n'Imported aliens was taken out of its\nbands. There being no convictions\n' made at Roseland, the government\n| contends it had no authority under\n'the Act to deport.\nYale-Caribsjo has a population, ac-\n\u00E2\u0080\u009Ecording to the almost completed census returns, of 51.C04, against 19,180\nten years ago. In importance and\nwealth the constituency has gained\nin an even larger proportion. Were\njustice meted out, the district em\n'braced would receive at least one\nmora member for the commons, one\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2for the senate, and half a dozen for\nvthe legislature. The facts are plain\n.and they constitute an urgent demand upon, the respective governments to give the district, and particularly the Kootenays, a fair share\n,of representation under redistribution. As it stands, the north riding\nof East Kootenay contains 1938 people and the south 6962. In West\nKootenay the Revelstoke riding haa\n.3008 inhabitants, Slocan 5321, Nelson\n'7102, and Rossland 7603. These figures warrant any way four more\nmembers for West Kootenay and one\nfor East Kootenay By reason of\ntheir numbers and by holding fust\ntogether, the Kootenay members\nin the legislature could initiate and\nfurther legislation favorable to the\nchief industry of the province\u00E2\u0080\u0094mining. Great as has boon the advance\nment in the decade Just closed, the\ncurrent period will witness even\ngreater progress for the Kootenays,\nand it is necessary that sufficient representation be given them to protect\ntheir valuable and expanding interests.\nDRILL POINTS.\nThe railway wharf has been repaired and put in safe condition.\nW.
