By process of law the Kyuquot distillery has been put out of busiuess and ts large stock of rare booze spilled and wasted over the rocks that slope down to the sea. Indian Kittie, who was the chief distiller, is undergoing a sentence of two months at hard labor in the provincial jail at Victoria; Mrs. Louis and Louisa, two expert assistants, are in the same predicament for one month, and several others have paid small amounts of money to compensate the government for an infraction of the statutes made and provided for the regulation of the manufacture of spirituous and fermented liquors. The distillery had been in operation for about six weeks, and the goods had been on the market at the Indian reserve for about half that time when the existence of the industry was discovered. The many jags that produced the howls, that made both night and day hideous, led to the unearthing of the enterprise, and on Sept. 26, Indian Agent Np'1 had the whale .company hailed before him in court, when he dispensed justice to all who held stock in the unlimited concern. Chief Constable Cox was present in his official capacity and, as custodian of three prisoners consigned to jail, was given a triq, at government expense, to the Capital City just in time to see the big annual fair. Expert witnesses who sampled the product that caused the trouble testify that it was of excellent quality. Crab apples, rice and huckle berries were used for the manufacture of the liquor, and it is said to have had a rich taste, with a flavor and action similar to high class champagne. Its color was blood red. SALE OF LANDS For Unpaid Delinquent Taxes In the Alberni Assessment District, Province of British Columbia.

FIRST MINSTREL OVER SUMMIT NEWS GENERAL AND PERSONAL Colored Man Comes to Town and Does Not Have to Chop Wood. Robert Waring arrived on a visit to his mother. last evening An abridged minstrel entertainment, that -r->. give: without tho usual advance advertising, was the musical event of the week in Alberti. The minstrel, a colored man, who has entertained small gatherings in nearly every town and city on the Pacific coast, made an unexpected appearance on Tuesday evening, when the rotunda of the Arlington Hotel was filled with men who were endeavouring to entertain themselves with a variety of prophesies of Alberni's future. He had come all the way from Nanaimo on foot, carrying his show goods with him. He wanted to eat; he was promptly fed. He was a working man, and not a musician, he said, and he wanted to rustle a job that night so that he might start work early the next morning. There were several employers of labor in the party, and there were many promises of attention to his wants, but that was not the time to talk business. Because of a determined persuasion the minstrel unpacked his goods, and commenced to play. When he had torn off a few selections, vocal and instrumental, about Gay New York, Butte, Mont., and a few of the southern rivers that poets have made famous, it was soon demonstrated to the performer's satisfactions that he was foolish to be looking for hard work for a day or two at least. The hat went around many times and everybody contributed. It would take a wood chopper as many days as it took that minstrel hours to acquire the same amount of money, and wood choppers ought to be making as much as hotels or real estate concerns these days. During the night a trip was made to New Alberni and a large number of the people of that progressive town were treated to a concert by the first minstrel organization that ever the summit. S. H. Toy returned home this morning from a timber cruising trip down the canal. Robert Thompson, ot Heaver Creek, returned home by stage at noon today from Vancouver. A. L. SMITH, Deputy Assessor and Collector, Alberni Assessment District. MAN DROWNED AT LIGHT HOUSE Boat From Steamer Maude Upset at Packena and Supplies Lost. C. F. Bishop has received a consignment of picture post cards from T. N. Hibben & Co., Victoria. The steamer Tees arrived in port at 6 o'clock this morning having been delayed over night by fog at the mouth of th'e canal. The Rev. George and Mrs. Smith of Alberni, will celebrate their golden wedding, (the fiftieth ann'.versary of the happy event) on Monday of next week. came over Capt. Roberts, C. E., leaves on Monday to join the C. P. R. location party at Cameron Lake. Miss Gertrude Robertson who had been visiting her sister, Miss Jessie Robertson, left in an automobile this morning for her home at Englishman's River. One of the crew of the steamer Maude was drowned and a quantity jf snpplies was lost near the Pachena Light on Wednesday afternoon. The Maude was moving McDonald's camp from Pachena Bay around to the other side of the light at Small Bay. One of the steamer's boats was upset by the strong gale that was blowing at the time and two men, with all the supplies, were thrown into the water. One of the men was rescued. The camp supplies were all lost. Ernest Woodward who is engaged at work on the McCoy Lake road had an exciting experience with a bold panther at noon on Monday last. He was sitting on the ground, with his back against a big log, partaking of his midday lunch, when his dog, which had been playing on the other side of the log, bounded into his lap, yelping with fright at it did so. Mr. Woodward was shghtly startled, and as he turned to see what had frightened the dog a huge panther cleared his head by a close margin and landed in a crouching position in front of him. The ugly beast was somewhat cowed by the unsuspected presence of a man, and looked sheepishly about for j a chance of escape. Mr. Woodward had beside him a 22- I calibre rifle which he used for killing ! grouse, and with this he took a shot at the panther's head. The little bullet struck the beast on the ear or, at least, Mr. Woodward thinks it did, for the panther brushed his ear with his paw, and taking on a more savage look, appeared to prepare himself for attack. Mr. Woodward seized his axe and rose to meet the onslaught, but in the face of this action the panther changed his mind, and with a sudden bound took to the woods again. J. M. Reeves, proprietor of the Yale hotel. Vancouver, and T. Elliott, of the same city, who is spending a holiday at Parksville, were in town on Tuesday evening and occupied front seats at the impromptu minstrel show. Mrs. E. Burdett Garrard returned last evening from Victoria and Vancouver, and will be a guest of her mother, Mrs. (Dr.) Watson, until the return of the steamer Tees from the south when she will continue her journey to her home in Clayoquot. President Shaughnessy of the C. P. . R. is due to arrive on the coast shortly and it is part of his plans to pay a visit to Alberni. Miss Hettie Morgan, who for the past month had been visiting her brother, Dr. Morgan, left by automobile this morning for her home in Nanaimo. The yoiing people of Al- berns society with whom she is most popular greatly regret her departure. Hard on Automobiles. Walter Thompson's automobile, which arrived . last night, was the first motor car to reach Alberni for a week. At' the beggining of last week there were three autos on the route between here and Nanaimo, and the prospects for rapid transit once or twice a day looked good for a while, but mishaps occurred one after the other with the result that traffic was entirely demoralized for a few days. This had something to do with the late appearance of the Pioneer News last Saturday. There is good business for two or three motor cars on the road between here and the Coal City if they can stand the pace and make the time. Auction Sale By A. W.

W. Heath A two day's meeting of the Farmers' Institute will be held in the court house on Friday and Saturday of next week when addresses will be delivered by a couple of well known speakers representing the Dominion and prov ncial movement that has for its object the j governments. The annual meeting of promotion of sociability, and endorse \ the Agricultural society which was to the suggestion, but there is one phase j have been held on Saturday next, has , . , ,,,.,,, been postponed for a week, of it which we would like to have more fully understood. The idea of some people in moving in the direction mentioned is to insure themselves aga'nt a dull season, and it would appear that th's has played some part in the suggestion before us. The fact is quite apparent, or ought to be, to any one who keeps his eyes and ears open that the coming winter will be much busier than the past summer has been, and any one with any nofon to the contrary, and who has anything to gain by a general 'ncrease of business, is taking chances on losing h:s share. By all means have a social club. It will be found good and useful in dull or busy months, but do not be misguided by the suggestion that it offers at this season. The line of railway is already located one mile this side of the summit, and within a few days a large gang of locators will be moving down towards the head of the canal. The work of location from the summit down is, we are given to understand, comparatively easy, and as soon as this is fin'shed the right-of-way cutters will commence operations from this end. Following these will come the contractors, and then; yes, before then, look out for a movement that will make this old town hum as it never hummed before, and as none of its earliest settlers ever believed it could hum.

Another smelter is in prospect for Vancouver Island. The enterprise, it is said, will be undertaken by the Southern Cross Mining and Smelting Co., and ,£100,000 has already been subscribed for the work. The construction of the smelter plant will probably be commenced this winter or early next spring. Its location is to be somewhere near the mouth of the Alberni canal, in the neighborhood of the copper areas owned by the Southern Cross company, initial plans for the active development of which have already been made. A wharf for handling the material and supplies has already been built in connection with the property and arrangements started so that the work can be pushed ahead, when the company decides upon earnest operation, without a minute's preparatory delay. The Southern Cross property is said to be a good one and the company already has a large amount of ore blocked out. In this enterprise British capital is enlisted almost exclusively. Aurthur Hebden, of London, secretary of the company, made a recent visit to Alberni, and in company with H. Cecil, went over the company's holdings, and also had a look at some other copper propositions on the Island. Mr. Cecil says that Mr. Hebden is quite satisfied with the look of the company's investments. NOTICE. LIQUOR LICENSE ACT. Take Notice that the application of A. E.

Folwell, another of the pioneer ranchers of Alberni, has taken his departure from the district with the intention of spendmg his remaining days —which from all appearances should be many—in other parts. Mr. Folwell has disposed of all his holdings, and though leaving with a well filled purse he declared that it was his intention to continue a life of activity. He had many friends to wish him bon voyage. Clusters of ripe, blue grapes grown in and around Alberni have been the subjects of photographic work by Leonard Frank this week. The pictures, which have been reproduced on post cards are being given a w'de circulation on the outside, and will, undoubtedly do much in the way of calling attention to the exceptional fruit growing possibilities of this part of Vancouver island.
