4 VOL. 1. ALBERNI, B. C, OCT. 12. 1907. NO. 9. CELEBRATE THEIR GOLDEN WEDDING Rev. George Smith and Wife Receive Congratulations and Presents. On Monday last the Rev. George Smith and Mrs. Smith, of Riverbank, resolved to celebrate his ministerial jubilee and their golden wedding by giving a garden party to the people of the Indian home as a token of gratitude for the many blessings they had unitedly enjoyed for the long period of fifty years. The invitation was most readily accepted and on Monday afternoon a large party was welcomed by a hearty hand shake to Riverbank. After enjoying a hearty tea the venerable minister challenged his young friends to a trial of strength at the Highland feat of putting the stone and was so severely beaten that he declined to carry out his intentions of trying a race with them. In the course of the afternoon one of the pup:ls stepped forward and read the following address to Mr. and Mrs. Smith and presented at the same time to Mrs. Smith a magnificent bound copy of Longfellow's poerrs illustrated, and to Mr. Smith a beautiful bouquet of choice flowers. Alberni Ind'an Miss'on October 7th., 1907. Dear Mr. and Mrs. Smith, We the pupils of the Indian Mission with staff, wish • to thank you for this opportunity of offering our congratulat'ons on your golden wedding, and our appreciation of the honor you have done in extending to us an invitation to be present this afternoon. You have shown in many ways heretofore, a kindly interest in the Indian and Indian workers which we al! appreciate. Not to many of us, if any, will be the life of christian ministry and christian fellowship that have been yours; but to each of us is given the opportunity of following in the footsteps of the Master, Who, when He was upon earth knew no distinction of creed or color, but went about doing that which was good. We ask your acceptance of this small token of our esteem and regard and we all join in wishing that you may still be spared to enjoy many years of happiness together. Signed on behalf of the pupils and staff. Freddie Jones, Alice Dick, C. E. Guilloid, Tom Shewish, Ruth Young, J. Steven, Otto Taylor, Jas. R. Motion, Lily Haslam, Ina Roberts, H. G. Motion, Mary Motion. Mr. Smith in reply said: "I cannot sufficiently thank you for your handsome present, but Mrs. Smith will no doubt in due time thank you for hers.

Brought in For Bounty. A. L. SMITH, Collector, Alberni Assessment and Collecting District. A huge panther that had been sneaking around the pig pen on Grieve's ranch, one mile from town, was brought in to the Government agent's office on Wednesday morning for the bounty of $7.50. The beast was about to make an attack on the live pork just after sun down on Tuesday evening when the Collie dog sprang in front of it and showed fight. The panther took to the woods, and the clog followed, worrying it till it climbed a tree. The barking of the dog attracted the attention of John Grieve who seized his rifle and went to investigate the excitement. One shot and the panther tumbled from the tree with a bullet hole clean through his head. had a house and garden of my own for upwards of 60 years this is the first garden party I ever had and Mrs. Smith and I have enjoyed it so much .hat we have resolved so long as we are sj sired in health and strength to hold a golden wedding celebration on every 6th. day of October and I hereby anticipate for you all a most cordial invitation to the same. I am sure, my young friends, that you all value the advantages of so good a home as you can feel having under your worthy principal and his much respected partner who no doubt would have been present with us ttdiy had her health permitted. I am glad also to see here our very able Indian agent, Mr. Neil, whose work is to look after the welfare of a portion of the most loyal and devoted subjects of one of the kindest and best Kings that ever sat on a throne, Solomon surely not excepted. I am very pleassd also to see here Mrs. Stephen and Miss Guilloid whose genial kindness I am sure you must all appreciate except perhaps when they give you too hard tasks to learn. May the blessing of our great common Heavenly Father rest upon the Alberni Indian Home and all connected with it." Mrs. Smith while in the act of thanking her young friends for the beautiful bouquet was heard to exclaim, "but what is this?" when a broad gold coin of the realm dropped from it. "There must surely be some mistake here." She was however speedily assured that there was no mistake and that if she would be pleased to wear it they would get it fitted up as a brooch, as a souvenir of the present happy meeting to which it need not be said Mrs. Smith most cordially agreed. Mr. and Mrs. Smith were the recipients of many presents on the anniversary occasion. The Rev. Mr. Glassford and Mr. Motion then addressed their entertainers and their guests in a very kindly manner, and after three hearty cheers had been given at the instance of Mr. Neil for Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and the National aud Dominion anthems sung a very happy meeting was brought to a close. Puts It Up to Ottawa. At a mass meeting of the anti-Asiatic league held in Vancouver last Monday night W. W. B. Mclnnes, ex-governor of the Yukon, denounced the Canadian government's treaty with Japan. He showed that since it had been in force Canada's export trade to that country had decreased, and he called on the Dominion government to have it abrogated. Other speakers took the same stand, and at the end of the meeting a resolution calling on the Provincial government to -at once call a session of the legislature and have the Natal act repassed, was passed. only to the town, but the whole district as well, and he has carried it out even to the smallest detail. NEWS GENERAL AND PERSONAL Miss H. Cameron, of Clinton, Ont, is visiting her sister, Mrs. G. Forrest. Record Timber Staking. During the month of September 1,071 timber licenses were issued by the Provincial department of lands and works. This is the largest number on record for any one month. The fees amounted to $143,102.20. The month of May of this year when the fees amounted to $120,620.36, comes next to September. New Alberni Dance. The New Alberni Social club, recently organized, will give its inaugural dance of the season on Tuesday, Oct. 22, and a cordial invitation is extended to the people of both New and Old Alberni. A new concert grand piano that was brought up on the last boat from Victoria has been placed in the hall. James Hills and family expect to move into town to take up residence next week. Miss Eva Thompson arrived on Tuesday night, and is visiting her parents, Beaver Creek. Mrs. Arthur Dawson of Beaver Creek was in town on Wednesday, accompanied by her son. R. L. Morse returned to town last night and went down the canal this morning in Rochester's launch. The resident population of Alberni was increased on Tuesday morning when Mrs. John Best gave birth to a boy. Money In Cranberries. An experiment in the culture of cranberries, made by J. W. Benson on his ranch at Sechart, proves that the industry can be made profitable in this part of Vancouver island. Cranberry bushes will produce after they have been set out for four years, and Mr. Benson's experience is that 300 bushels to the acre can be grown. With such a ready market as is to be found, and such prices as prevail, a couple of acres ought to be a good paying proposition for one man. Sings No Longer. Sing Long the Chinaman who for some months past conducted a restaurant in a four by eight space, opposite the Arlington hotel, on Johnston street, has given up business and gone to New Alberni where he has been engaged as cook at the new King Edward hotel. A sign on the door informs the public that hereafter Charlie will open the place and cook any time there is any business in sight.

TELLS VICTORIA ABOUT ALBERNI PACHENA DISASTER. From every part of the Island reports are numerous to the effect that deer are becoming scarcer and panthers and wolves more plentiful. The beasts of the latter class prey on the former, and are doing more toward the'r ultimate annihilation than the hunter would do if he had open season twelve months in the year. This fact has made itself felt particularly in Alberni district this year where the woods are strewn with remnants of the carcases of deer that have been slaughtered by treacherous and ravenous beasts that feed fat upon them. There is a provincial bounty on wolves and panther?, $5 for the former and $7.50 for the latter, and it would appear that these amounts are insufhVent to induce .the required effort to lessen the number. The deer in our forests are a material part of the Island's resources, and should be preserved even if the cos I; comes lr'gh. Let us put into circulation a petition to the provincial government, praying that these bount'es be increased two fold or three fold if necessary. Make it so lr'gh that hunters will And it profitable to go into the woods and commence a campaign of extinction" H. Carmichael Gives His Opinion on District and Its Future. RETURNS HOME TO WAIL. One, D. F. Macdonald by name, and resident at Parry Sound, a lumbering center of Ontario, who says he was on Vancouver island recently inspecting timber, has returned home, and has told the newspaper of his town that British Columbia 's not much of a place to live in, that he met several people from Parry Sound and Muskoka who had been here for years and were no better off than when they came, that the trees are too b'g, that the fruit is tasteless, and that it. rained every day he was In the province. We have a well developed suspicion that Mr. Mac- dona'd, by some accident, got locked up in a shower bath somewhere, on the day of his arrival, and that when he wes released he took the first train for home. If perchance he should come this way aga'n we will take him for a stroll along the ocean beach somewhere, and let him drink a little of the Pac-'fic so that he may return again to his home to tell the people there that someone has ruined this country by spilling salt in the drinking water. ROYAL CITY'S DISTINCTION. On Saturday last the Tecumseh lacrosse team, which had met and defeated the Vancouver team a couple of days previous, crossed sticks with the New Westminster combination on the fair grounds at the Royal City, and the result was a defeat of the easterners by a score of twelve goals to six. The visitors were in the best of condition and had no excuse for losing other than that they could not play the game as well as the westerners. The whole west should be proud of that New Westminster bunch of exponents of Canada's national game. It is a wonderful organization composed principally of men much younger and lighter on The Victoria Colonist of recent date says: H.Carmichael, the provincial assayer, has returned to the city from the Alberni district. Mr. Carmichael has been engaged in making a topographical map of the whole Alberni district and a map of Great Central lake, giving the geological and general conditions of the entire region. The provincial government realizing the immense development which the region is about to undergo with the opening up of the region by the railway, knew that there would be many demands made upon the authorities for information as to the conditions there. Mr. Carmichael was, therefore, sent up to collect all available information. This with the maps will be issued in pamphlet form when set in order and will be issued probably in about a month's time. There has never been an authentic map of Great Central lake before. Mr. Carmichael states that the lake is the largest on Vancouver island. It is twenty-two miles long by two miles wide at the broadest portion. ' The timber recources of this district are simply tremendous and with the railway tapping the lake will be easily marketed. In the opinion of the provincial assayer, Sproat lake is the finer from a scenic point of view and is one of the most beautiful spots on the island. The Alberni district contains one of the largest tracts of agricultural land on Vancouver island. Contrary to all reports there is little rain there. The summer just passed was a beautiful one and there were but one or two showers. The C. P. 11. is making a great effort to get its road into Alberni at the lowest poes'ble grade and with as few curves as possible. They have done a great deal in this respect which they would not have done had they not been sincere in their desire to make the road really first class. One of their best engineers, Mr. Wilkins, is at present out from the east giving the route the finishing touches. Stamp's harbor, wdiere the terminus on salt water will be, has been minutely surveyed by the railway company also. With regard to the land back of the townsite Mr. Carmichael states that it is all good land with a comparatively- gentle slope. Where Roger creek flows through there is undoubtedly a ravine, but a little care in surveying lots will prevent the anomaly of a proprietor having one half of his lot one hundred feet higher than the other. The mining business has not been very active in the neighborhood of Alberni during the past summer. The Gladys claim has been shipping during the summer, and some of the mines up China creek are being developed. Further Details of the Boat Swamping and Drowning. Further details of the disaster that occurred in Pachena Bay on Wednesday afternoon of last week, have been furnished the Pioneer News by John Shirley Richardson as follows: Mr. McDonald engaged the steamer Maude to move his camp some six miles from Pachena Bay to Pachena Point. While lying to land a small boat, manned by two of the Maude's crew, was capsized by a big sea and one of the occupants drowned. A larger boat containing a number of men, besides Mr. and Mrs. Riley and their two children, had a narrow escape from being swamped by the same breaker. As it was she half filled but got safely to shore. The Maude did not risk trying to land anything more that day, but returned to Bamfield. Those who had landed had a more or less uncomfortable time of it until the following Saturday when the Maude returned again and succeeded in landing the rest of the camping outfit. In the meantime the Rileys, who had lost their bedding and a quantity of clothing, were glad to accept the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Pillar, the light keeper and his wife. Mr. Forrest's men joined with Mr. McDonald's in a search for the body of the lost sailor, but no trace of it could be found. Last Monday the Maude finished unloading the last of the gear for the wireless telegraph station. As the budding is finished it will not take the six men who came on the Maude long to put up the big 200 foot mast and get the station into working order. Mr. Forrest expects to complete his work at Pachena in a few weeks. He has a contract to put up a building for a fog alarm station at Cape Beale, the plans and specifications for which are practically the same as they were for the engine house at Pachena Point.

J. W. Benson, a rancher of Sechart, who conducts a logging camp at the north end of Coppper Island on the West Coast, is in town, a guest at the Arlington. During the summer he took out about one million feet of logs, and now he has shut down for the season because he cannot find a ready market for his stock. His only customers have been the mill owners at Ucluclet, and G. H. Bird of New Alberni. Last week he brought down about 15o,ooo feet for the latter, the towing being done by Capt. Huff's steamer the Tasmanian. Mr. Benson recently made a trip to Victoria with a view to finding a market for his logs, but he found the lumbermen there unwilling to take the risk of bringing them through. He expects that next summer there will be enough demand on the West Coast to keep him busy all the time, and he intends to resume operations in the spring on a much larger scale.
