He said in an interview tbat lie thought Mr. Gladstone was in lhe beat of health. Mr. Gladstone had enjoyed his afaourn in Biarritz greatly aud was gratifies by the benefit which he derived from his*}-- vacation. He would return to London probably on February 10th. He had been surprised upon learning that a definite royort concerning his retirement had heen published in London, especially au there was uo more ground for it than waB to be found* in the uncer- tainty rf ur, aged statesman*, temaining in office after he Iud becoaie ct&isciuus of hia failing powers. The French in Africa. Paris, Feb. 7.���The Temps says, that the Governor of Freuoh West Africa, took pos- seaaion of Half-Cavally, oa the Liberian frontier, only in response to the inhabitants appeals for protection from Liberia's ill treatment. The delimitation treaty of 1892 is still unsigned and therefore was not regarded as hampering Frenoh action. Liberia has now consented to aign the treaty and the French forces will be withdrawn from the frontier. Conferring Honors in Egypt. London, Feb. 7.���General F. XV.

General Kitchener was offended ao deeply by the Khedive'a recent strictures upon the discipline of the Egyptian army, that he resigned his office. He waB induced by the Khedive, however, to reconaider this action. Londonderry on Ireland. London, Feb. 7.���The Marquis of Londonderry, Conservative, in speaking in Greenwich this evening, said that the next Unionist ministry ought to settle the Irish land question. Scops should be taken to facilitate purchase and to enable the tenant to become the owner. The establishment of a bo.'id of agricultural instruction would help to develop Ireland's resources. These .ml a few niner steps along the same line wi.util i-top the source of trouble tu Ireland. 1 owner; Capt. James A An Outcome of th-*} Fair.

COUNTER AGENT FOR BRITISH COLUMBIA. Press Opinion on Silver. London, Feb. 7.���The Daily News this morning: The silver and rupee markets have been thrown into a state of consternation. Hereafter there will be no apparent limit nf the decline of exchange. Nevertheless, while a further fall is admitted to be probable, there is a disposition in well informed quarters to take a calmer view of the future course of exchange, Moreover the i-pot supplies for Bilver are very smull aud there are indications in America aud elsewhere of a reduction of the output. Hunting a Princess. Paris, Feb. 7.���No trace has yet been found of the Princess Colonna, the step daughter of Mr. John W. MacKay, who ia suing her husband for a judicial separation. The Princess, who was residing in Paris, was ordered by the court to allow her husband to see the children, but when tbe Prince went to the hotel where she had been living, she had disappeared. It is reported that Bhe has taken her departure tor the United States, but both her advocate and solicitor refused to-day to repudiate or confirm this. The solicitor of Princess Colonna, will try to bring lhe matter before the tribunal in Paris to-morrow. The Prince haa obtained a writ in a suit he has instituted in Naples, demanding that the Princess return to tbe marital room, or in default thereof, that the Prince be appointed guardian of the children. The caae will onme up for hearing on February 10th. There ia reason to believe that the Princess waa in the south of France about a week ago. The deduction now is that she is at either Montone, at whioh the court gave her permission to reside for the benefit of the health of the children, or that the has taken passage on the North German Lloyd steamer which sailed fr'oni Genoa last V.'eilnesJ..'j fnf-V. *��� ' York. Credit is given here to the theory that ahe is atill at Mentone. Mourned tor In Victoria���The Names on the Death Roll. Victoria, Feb. 7.���[Special.]���The loss of the fine towboat Estelle, was discussed in marine circles today to tlie exclusion of almost all other conversation. So established had been the steamer's reputation for staunchness, that at first the news could scarcely be credited. It was un{Ttunately all too 'rue,however,and wonder during the day gave plaoe toBineere expreseions of sympathy for those bereaved by the disaster and speculation as to how the accident occurred. Many and widely differing were the opinions advanced, but the majority of those familiar with the district incline to believe that the treacherous "tide rip" setting in between Cape Mudge and the mouth of Campbell River was in some mysterious manner responsible for the catastrophe. Until further information is available, the story of juat how the Kstelle met her fate muat remain untold. Andrew Haslam, senior owner and Capt. James Chiistensen Sr., whose son was in command, left on the Brunette this morning for the scene of the disaster. They will explore all the islands iu the vicinity in the forlorn hope of picking up Borne survivor, and will then report the result of their investigation by wire from Union. The report that Indians witnessed the explosion, though not yet verified, ia generally believed. According to the preaent knowledge the death roll of the Kstelle is aa below: Norman McDougall, of Nanaimo, part I, - .pt. James A. Chriatenaen Jr., Vic- toria.'master; Carl JohnBon, Vancouver, mate; . Herbert Whiteside, Victoria, engineer; Robert Wilaon, Victoria, assistant; George Hallitt, Victoria, fireman; William Mc- Kughlin, Nanaimo, deckhand; with Chineae cook. Of the four Victorians named, three are married and two have families as well as wives depending upon them. Engineer Whiteside was married only a few months ago, and his bride iB inconsolable. Robert Wilson's wife and two children live in Viotoria Weat, while Mrs. Hallitt and family are residents of Halifax, N.S. The largest Btock of SPECTACLES in the City. Full stock of First Quality PEBBLES, to Suit all Sights. M. R. COUNTS i, Jeweller. 8-11-181*0 The Russo-Gcrmanic Treaty. London, Feb. 7.���The ���Times correspondent in Berlin says: The prospects of passing the Russian treaty do not appear at first Bight to be favorable. The greatest safeguard of the Government lies undeniably in the fact that the Conservatives scarcely provoke a dissolution, inasmuch as an electoral cent est against the Governmeut would be the annihilation of that body. The Collapse in Silver. London, Feb. 8.���The Times says: How far the collapse of silver ia due to a simple panic remains to be seen. India pauses in her absorption and uutil a strong new demand arises, tears of the accumulation of a stock will tend to depress the val of the metal. It ia thought of the question that the governments will combine to protect silver. That the strong privato holder, seeing bow small is the margin of supply to be kept oil' the market, will step in, is also doubtful, because no full recovery of confidence iu finance is yet apparent. It ia ouly certain that the low price will both curtail production and extend the consumption till the decline will be arrested and probably reversed." The only lure Cream of Tartar Powder.���No Atniuouia; No Alum. Used in Millions of Homes���40 Years the Standard Incendiaries at the World's Fair. Chicauo, Fob. 7.���At 4:40 thia afternoon fire was discovered in the roof of the southwest comer of the Agricultural building, at the World'B Fair grounds. The fire was B'H'n iiinler control, aud lhe damage to the building found to be insignificant. Twenty Cises 01 exhibits were somewhat damaged by water. One hundred square feet of the glass roof of the building fell, nearly burying a detail of firemen, whe were fighting the fire directly beneath that portion of tlie roof. All of the firemen escaped without injury, except minor bruises and outs from glass. It is thought that a systematic effort is being made by incendiaries to destroy the World's Fair buildings. Early thia morning a small blaze waa found in a pile of rubbish near the building which was easily extinguished, and the police claim to have evidence that both blazea were the work of an incendiary. The Czar is a Prince of Peace. Berlin, Feb. 7.���The members of the Reichstag wbo attended the parliamentary banquet given Monday night by Chancellor Von Caprivi are gradually divulging in the lobby of the Reichstag the detaila of the speeches made on that occasion. It ia Baid that Kmperor ' William fulaomely praised the Czar saying: "He iB a prince of peace type like myself." Continuing, his majesty is reported to have Baid that his relations with the Czar were excellent and of the moat intimate nature, yet should t^e Reichstag reject the coming treaty, enemies woubi immediately damage Germany. Iu conversation with one nf the Conservative members of the R inhatag the Empi ror said that he had carefully a: U'lied the ngricultural disliess, and anxiously cn- templated remedies to relieve it. Nevertheless he was convinced lhe duty on grain of one-half mark would be sufficient for the protection of the German farmers. Ten years ago, he added, the farmers would have considered such a protective tariff beyond the range of possibility. The Radical newspapers strongly express their approval of the Emperor's forcible wordB in favor of the Russian commercial treaty. Eugene Richter, of the Frieisinnige/Jesuit*/, ia even incliued to impugn Herr Von Levet- aow, president of the Reichstag, for developing views hardly in harmony with thoBe of the Emperor. The Conservatives regard the Emperor's w"rds ��s intended to exert pressure upon the deputies aud their journals, in answering the Radical's expressions, they say that the RadicalB would have rai��ed 'he loudest outcry against this interference with tho freedom of the Reichstag, had uiey been opponenta cf the measure decide.* by the Emperor. The Reichstag to-day discussed a motion by Giober, and Riokert, to ameud the election regulation! with a view to making them more secret. The motion provided that an isolated room ahall b*��� furnished in which the electors shall write their tickets and place them in themselves. The motion was generally supported except by tho Imperialists aud Conservatives. BY WIRE FROM SAN FRANCISCO. Current News from the City hy the Golden Gate.

Five groups ol decorative statucaiy tor the grand court of the Midwinter Exposition have arrived from Chicago. They will be placed in position at once. The court will then contain the large statue of Columbus, the Electric Tower, the Electric Mountain, the Allegorical Fountain, and the groups to which allusion haa already been made. James A. Hart, president of the Chicago Baseball Club, has arrived in the city, hil object being to look over the grounds with the idea of bringing out a Chicago team to California, it is said that he has concluded not to make the venture, aa the haseball outlook is not encouraging, and the Bostons have left the city. He will return east next week. The Oregon Press Asaociation, the Portland Press Club, and a great many editors fiorr. the state of Washington and from B-ittsh Columbia, are making arrangements tn come to the Midwinter Exposition, some time next month, iu a body. There would be about 200 editors in this party, if the arrangements are completed as planned, and it is expected that when they come the Midwinter Fair will receive a atill bigger boom even than it has thus far had in the columns of the Northwestern proas.

The Wild Cossacks of Russia and Their Marvelous Feats. After Centuries of MnniudlnK They Have Become Disciplined Soldiers and Havo Few Superiors lis Hlflomen. A tribe of people known centuries ago as the wild Kazaks of Dnieper and the Don. freebooters, as the name implies in the Tartar tongue, bus gradually been brought under rigid military rule, so that at the present (lay the descendants of this restless, warfuring race furnish the Russian empire with one of the most valuable eleneuts of the national army. Their career as freebooters came to an end under the reign of Ivan IV., antl since then they have rendered excellent service as scouts and skirmishers, and their good offices in the protection of the frontiers from the Caucasus to China an; almost invaluable. They are light-armed soldiers, and, according to a writer in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, above all, artists on the horse. They ride their horses as easily bareback without saddle or bridle as with the usual equipments, and always at the briskest trot or the wildest gal- op. The "Djighitovka," as they call their military code, which prescribes the many hazardous exercises practiced by the Cossacks, is calculated to fit the young cadets, the "Djighites," for the hardest and most perilous service rendered by this branch of the Russian army- When the cadet has gone through the intricacies of tlie Djighitovka, at which time he has attained bis twenty-first year, he has lost all sense of difficulty or fear and enters upon his active regimental service for four years. Among the most commonplace exercises which the code prescribes arc hurdle racing on the part of the men armed with sword and gun; shooting in every imaginable position, as turning backward in the saddle or using tin.' horse as a bulwark to lire from behind. The latter exercise is particularly interesting. The Cossacks approach at a mad gallop, come to a sudden stop and jump from their horses, while the latter, trained as carefully as the men, lie down without a word of command and protect their riders with their Hanks. The Djighitovka is divided into two kinds of exercises, the arbitrary and the voluntary. The latter embraces a line of feats of which the best professional circus rider need not be ashamed The men jump to the ground and back on their horses as they gallop madly along; they bend away down and lift objects from the ground as they tear over the open fields; they jump from one horse to another while the latter goes at full speed, or they ride along standing upright in the saddle and throwing the spear. In the latter case the Cossack stands really in his stirrups, which have been previously of AustraJmn- h-arli at af ..id *,-, ***)��) KWOSSed back and forth to bring them on tendered to him ou Wednesday, Feb. 14th, by tho association, immediately previous to the regular meeting of the association to be held on that day.

The American National Red Cross has juat issued a manifold report for tetms between October 189.'!, and January 1894.

Standing on their heads while charging over an open field is by no means an unusual exercise. One shoulder pressed against the saddle, the Cossack maintains his equilibrium by clutching the stirrups with both hands. The ambulance service with the Cossack regiments is limited to mutual help. Two mounted men on horses will hold a wounded comrade between them to remove him from the battle field. Besides these wonderful feats of individual horsemanship the Cossacks execute exploits In groups, showing a daring rider carrying a comrade on his shoulders to lire at high range. Cossack military training comprises two chief branches, that of handling a horse, and using either sword or gun with equal facility and to the greatest disadvantage of the enemy. While the regular code exercises are hazardous enough, the voluntary ones are always accompanied by great risk and danger, and energy and dauntlessness are as necessary elements as suppleness of limb. Much depends also upon the horses, and because men and animals differ materially in point of natural aptitude, the latter exercises arc not required generally but can be chosen at will, although the hardest and most vigorous cadets aro encouraged very liberally to go through them and personal rivalry has much to do with developing marvelously fearless Cossacks for his majesty, the czar. Accidents, which are bound to occur now and then, do not .diminish the number of candidates for that course of military training. A Russian proverb says: "Those who cut wood must not mind if the chips ily," and Gen. Zey- dlitz's reply to his royal master has become proverbial among the Cossacks. "How is it," asked the king, "that so many men in your regiment break their necks?" "Your majesty," answered Zeydlitz, "if you desire it it shall be stopped, but in that ease I will not be responsible for the conduct of the regiment when it faces the enemy." THE DOCTOR.

THE EXECUTION OF VAILLANT Vaillant, the anarchist, who some time ago flung a bomb in the French Chamber of Deputies, was guillotined on Monday morning last. Vaillant was awakened from sleep and informed that he was to be executed immediately. He appeared at first somewhat surprised at the intelligence. He seems to have imagined that the Government was to much frightened at the threats of the anarchists to put him to death. But he soonrecovered his composure, sayins;, "my blood is nothing compared with the progress of my principles. I shall be avenged." He refused to see a chaplain; he even refused a stimulant, saying that he had courage enough without it. Indeed the wretched man's courage was remarkable. He walked with a firm atop tn the block, and placed his head upon it without assistance. The knife descending almost at the same instant, ���his head dropped in the basket, and all waB over. His last words were, "loDg live anarchy!" In less than two minutes after the knife fell, the body was placed in a van to be taken to the Iuvergue cemetery. It must be admitted that the French mode of executing criminals is both speedy and effective. The ��uellotine makes no mistakes, whatever its masters may do. Every precaution was taken to prevent an anarchist demonstration at the guillotine, and none took place. About 1,200 people assembled to witness the execution, but as the guards around the scaffold hindered them from seeing, many left. Some spectators, however, who had secured places in the windows of tbe houses around the place of execution, and even on the roofs, had the satisfaction, such as it was, of seeing everything. It does credit to the firmness of President Carnot and his Government, that they had the courage to carry out the sentence on Vaillant despite the loud threats nf the anarchists. It is to be hoped that hi* fate will be a warning to his fellows, but that it will be so is doubtful. The anarchists of Europe teem to be full of fanaticism and evil courage, just as Vaillant ��� was. They are more likely to look upon him as a martyr to their cause, and to meditate schemes of vengeance, th m to bo ititiniiil.it- ed by Vaillant's execution. It is even to be feared that rash and vain men among them, and there are plenty such, may be mad enough to try and imitate him. If so they also must be similarly punished. No matter at what cost of life, anarchism must be stamped out. If it is permitted to prevail civilization and religion, ami all that they imply, will be destroyed. Karl Blind, the veteran radical and revolutionist, has an article in the current issue of the Contemporary Review on the rise and development of anarchism. He traces it to ihe teaching of Proudhon iu France and of Bakunin, the father of nihilism, in Russia. Proudhon was the celebrated writer on socialism who annunciated the principle, dear to all socialists, nihilists and anarchists, that property is crime. Of course Proudhon meant that it was a crime to possess property. According to Karl Blind��� and no man in Europe knows more of revolutionists, their theories, ideas, and purposes���Bakunin declared "that iu order to bring about the abolition of state formations and governments, whioh were to be superseded hy small groups of independent workers, it would be necessary to unloose all the passions now called evil, and to destroy what is by the samo class of speakers called public oider." Such according to a writer, who knows whereof he affirms, wns the genesis of anarchism. It wns begotten of Russian lawlessness, itself begotten of oppression, and of Frenoh theorising, which is mostly begotten of the devil. And it is worthy of its parentage. Anarchism aims to overturn civilization and to destroy all religion. The forces ol civilization can therefore not afford to givo (juarter to anarchism. One or the other must be destroyed. they will not be worth their face value by over 30 per cent., and the United States will at once be confronted with the evils of a debased currency. It would be better, before ordering the silver bullion in the treasury to be coined, for the United States Government to endeavor to procure the re-monetization of silver by international agreement. If this were done, first fixing a proper ratio of silver to gold, there would be no fear of silver thereafter becoming depreciated, and all the silver bullion held in the United States treasury might be coined with safety. The British Government could, perhaps, be induced to concur, aB the international re- monetization of silver seems to he the only thing that will stop the continu*-d fall in the value of the rupee, aud prevent, the threatened bankruptcy of the government of India. The method of prom cling proposed in Bland's bill looks very like putting the cart bofore the horse, and if the bill is passed will be sure to 1* mi tn endless trouble. It is announcul that the Midwinter Fair at San Francisco wili he extended a month beyond the time flint proposed. It was originally intend* d to close i hi Fair on the 30th of June; it will not close before July 31, and probably not uutil August. The Bland Bill, providing for the coinage of the silver bullion held in the United ���States Treasury, is mainly an iufl ition bill. If the bill passes Congress thci"i will be a fresh issue of silver certificates, in amount equal to the seignorage on the bullion coined. It is not stated whether these certificates will be redeemable in gold or in silver, but it is probable that they will be redeemable in the white metal only. If so The distribution dill is to be introduced forthwith in the Provincial Assembly by the Premier. When it has been introduced, and the d hate upon it begins, then also will begin in earnest the struggle of opposing parties in the House, It is morally certain that no bill that the Government frames or could frame will give satisfaction to the Opposition, especially to the so-called Independents led by Messrs. Cotton, Brown and Kitchen. No oue need beas'oiimhed at the opposition these men will gtve to the bill. They are bound to condemn and oppose it, no matter what its provisions may be. General Middlbton was apparently not satisfied with the glory he had won in the expedition which he commanded in put down Louis Riel's rebellion in thi Northwest, but must needs run itro p iit *vi h a statement which Lieutenant-Colonel H ugh- ton, of Montreal, has felt called upon to deny. General Middleton, who has been living comforlably in retirement on his pension in England, has presumably felt the time hanging heavily on his hands, and so to drive away ennui, no doubt, has been fighting his battles over again in the columns of the United Service Magazine, In his article published iu the Matjazite he makes the statement that after the first day's righting in the battle of Batoche his senior officers were of opinioo that they had not troops enough, and had better retreat. Lieutenant-Colonel HaughtoD, in a letter to the Montreal Gazette, urserts that it was General Middleton hims* If who wanted to retreat, and that his officers remonstrated. General Middleton then decided to stand firm, and fight the battle out. Lieutenant Colonel Haughton defies Geueral Middleton successfully to contradict this statement. General Middleton will have leisure to reflect on the wisdom of the statement, that "Satan finds some mischief atill for idle hands ti do." If he had not been an idle man he would probably never have written the article for the United Service Magazine containing tho statement which has called forth so very unqualified a contradiction from Lieutenant-Colonel Haughton.

The Methodist Church congregation presented Miss Mounce last night with a very handsome dressing case. Miss Mounce has been the organist for the church for some time and is now leaving for her home in New Brunswick. She hopes, however, to return again to British Columbia in a year or two. With the dressing case was a valedictory address whioh was presented by Mr. Paullet. During the evening a very pleasant ooncert took plaoe. Mr. W. A. Thompson was chairman. The other evening Mrs. Matheson called on Mrs, David Stevenson, the worthy constable's wife, and asked her assistance in preparing the Institute Hall for a dance on Tuesday evening. Mrs. P evenson complied and duly appeared, boh.,* surprised at finding the hall already. In trying to get away, she was told that it was a surprise party for her, and was forced to stay. The following were present: Misses Kilpatrick, McKenzie, Gillespie, Thick, Pringle, McNeil, McMillan, Ramsay, Burns, Matheson, Vater, Muir, Manuels, Wall, Ferguson and Stewart j Mesdames Black, Gear, Dowdell, Frazer, Matheson and Muir.

VICTORIA, Feb. 7. -[Special]���In the severe storm of this morning, the San Francisco bark Wrestler, just arrived from Honolulu to load lumber here, dragged her anchor in tho Royal Roads and went broadside on "While rook," near the entrance to Esquimalt harbor, wheto she still lies, despite lhe efforts of the Mystery, Hope and all other small tugs to remove hor. It is fearod the bark is badly injured; she hhB several holes below water line and is badly strained. Several small craft also went ashore in the gale, but without sustaining serious damage. The Wrestler was in ballast and had both anchors out at the time of her mishap. She now lies in an awkward position and it is feared sho may break up. The San Pedro wreck weathered the storm bravely, but several thousand dollars' damage was done in the city by the boisterous blow. A Womanly Wife. Denvkr, Col., Feb. 7.���Mrs. Allie Blook Carr, was arrested this afternoon, upon a charge of complicity of the murder of her husband, Harry Carr,a well known attorney of this city. Bessie Wood, a close friend of Mrs. Carr, "Teddie" Dolson, Jim McCrea, and a man named "Butch," sporting characters were also held for examination. An effort will be made to sift the information thus obtained in the hope of ferreting out the cause of the mystery of the murder Sunday night, when Mr. Oarr was reported killed by burglars. At the Elks' masquerade ball recently Mrs. Carr created a scene; she quarrelled with her husband and Hew to the protection of 'Teddy," her husband finally foroing her to go home. It is said by many that the murder is nothing short of a conspiracy to make away with Carr in order to obtain possession of hiB life insurance. I ROYAL TEMPLARS OF TEMPERANCE. Grand Council's Annual Meeting���Report of First Session. [communicated.] The meetings of this organization commenced in the Temperance Hall of this city on Tuesday evening at 7:30. Delegates were present from the various councils throughout the Province. The progress of Royal Templary during the past few years has beeu very marked. where a few years ago it had no existence, there are now ten councils, three in Victoria, two in Vancouver, two i . Westminster, one in Nmaimo, one at Lulner's Landing and one at Oakland. Viotoria councils sent as delegates Messrs. Ellis and D. McLean; Vancouver, D. M. McDonald and D. J. Hogu; Nmaimo, S. B. Hamilton and A Lairi-a**; Westminster, Rev. T. Haddon, Rev. R Leunie, MessrB. J. J. JohnBton and R. Buckland and Miss M. Williams. The session waB called to order under the presidency of the Past Grand Councillor Sutherland, in the absence of Grand Councillor Stark. Miss Williams acted aB grand vice councillor. Grand Chaplain Rev, E. Robson, Giand Secretary Rev. T. Haddon The secretary read the minutes of the executive, for the year. After routine business, verbal reports were called for and promptly responded to by the delegates, when the state of the various councils was made known, aome of the councils had made excellent progress. New Westminster has 52 beneficiary members carrying inmrance of about $2,000 eaoh, Vancouver has 42 beneficiary membcrB carrying a similar amount each, while all the other councils are in a measure equally well represented. In the ten councils there is a membership of nearly 500 persona, many of whom are carrying a good amount in life insuianoe, and all are seeking to forward the interests of temperance. In Victoria and other places through the efforts of Royal Templars a union of all the temperance societies for aggressive work his been effected, and good work is being done. In this city too good work has been done, open air meetings have been held, good impressions have been made, and 200 temperance pledges secured at these meetings. Second Session���Wednesday Morning. The forenoon's proceedings were preoeded by a prayer meeting at 9 a.m., led by Grand Chaplain Rev. E. Robson, after whioh the miuutes of last meeting were read and adopted. In order that the committees might meet the Council adjourned until 11 o'clock. On reassembling, the Committee on Tern perance reported recommending tho crgan of the order 'The Royal 'Templar, congratulating the body on ita progress and recommending the circulation of a petition to the Dominion Parliament iu favor of prohibition. The Committee on White Crosa recommended the establishment of that movement in all the Councils. The Cadet Committee recommended the appropriation by each Council of $25 toward travelling expenses of Grand Superintendent, and that a local superintendent and assistant bo also appointed in each Counoil. A change was recommended by the Committee on State Benefit, lo the effect that the entrance fee be for persons from 16 to 80 years of uge, $i; from 30 to 35 years, $G; from 35 to 40 years, $8; from 40 to 45 years, 810. Quite a discussion arose on the advisability of throwing around this fund, such influences as shall guard it from abuse. Ulti- miitely tuah a resolution was passed. The oini'i it tee ou the state and extension of the order recommended to ruiso a fund to inaugurate a forward movement, and to aecure tho services of such mon as is likely to help in that direction; that the Grand Councilor visit each Council ut least once a year, and that each Council gel ut leas, one sermon a year iu the irnerest ot temperance, and that all Royal Templars endeavor to mulie such meetings successful. It was ultimately agreed that the rxocu- tive be empowered to unite with other temperance bodies in obtaining, if possible, the services of some qualified person or persons to advance the interests of temperance and prohibition in the Province. A resolution was passed to memorialize the Dominion Council, asking them to consider the advisability of raising the maximum amount of insurance in the Select Degree to $5000. The financial report showed an income in the general fund of ��014.45, and and an expenditure of $441.70, leaving a balance of $172.75; and in the sick benefit fund, income $-280.45, and expenditure $80.45, balance in hand $191. The per capita tax for males to be 20c., females 15c. The election of officers resulted in the choice of the following: As Grand Councillor, Bro. Cairns, of Nanaimo; Grand Vioe- Councillor, Sister Williams; Grand Chaplain, Rev. E. Robson; Grand Secretary, Rev. T. Haddon; Treasurer, Bro. Johnston; Grand Auditor, Bro. Hogg; Grand Medical Referee, Bro. Dr Brydon-Jaok; Grand Herald, Bro. Fraser. Trustees: For three years, Bro. Cook; for one year, Bro. Ellice, of Victoria; Superintendent of Cadet work, Sister Newman; White Cross work, Rev, R. Lennie; Representative to Dominion Counoil, Rev. R. Lennie. A publio meeting was held in the Y.M.C. A. rooms, and was largely attended. R, A. Cairns, the newly elected grand councillor, presided. After the opening exercises a solo was aung by Miss Blundell, and Rev. E. Robson delivered an address full of humor and good advice, and then came an instrumental duett by Misses Powers and Donaldson. This was followed by a short paper on Bible Temperance.by Rev.

The Grand Council then dismissed the publio meeting, und went into session again in the Temperance Hall, where routine business occupied their attention until a late hour. Altogether these gatherings have been very enjoyable, and an impetus will be given by them to temperance work throughout the Province. COMMUNICATIONS. Professor Cozens Explains. Editor Tp.U'.oram: As the report of the police proceedings in reference to myself and Dr. Onequi in tonights Free Press, is only partially accur ate, I wish to say that I did not say that Mrs. Onequi would have children. And in the other statements, if the chart is read, it will be seen they are conditional, I think when a magistrate would not even look at my diploma, as so by that to see my proper standing, it is very unfair to Bay the least. I was never persecuted in all my experiences like I have been in Nanaimo. Iu the above report no mention was made of mv kindness in helping or trying to help the Y. M. C. A. out of debt. It seems that astrology must take the place of mental science, because of the sordid $50. How ever, I will now give my lectures us adver tised, and teat the case. Geo. Cozens.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1894. LOCAL NEWS. POLICE COURT. Yesterday's police court, before Mr. Planta, 9. M. and Mr. Bate, J. P., included two oases. The first was that of Professor George Cozens, a phrenologist, holding a diploma from the American Institute ot Phrenology, New York. The professor was charged with fortune telling without a licence, and this was in contravention to a by-law iu the Revenue by-laws for 1803. It says that any person practising the profession of a seer, astrologer, palmi' t or fortune telling must pay a license of !z~>0. Dr. Onequi, who came from Vancouver here recently, describes himself as a life reader from palmistry, and paid his ffiO fee when called upou to do so. When Prof. Cczens arrived later; Dr. Onequi naturally inquired if he too, had paid the license. Upon hearing that he had not, Pr. Onequi sent his secretary and wife to ascertain what work the professor was doing. At their instance the suit was instituted. Mrs. L. Onequi gave evidence of her in terview with the professor of phrenology, saying, that he told her many things of the future which were not set down in the written supplement of the chart. The fly leaf, however, promised her long life and social success, which the magistrate remarket} seemed very little different to the old gypsy busiuess which ensued after crossing the palm with silver. This the professor indignantly denied, and said he knew nothing whatever of fortune telling. He declined to cross-examine any of the three witnesses; Dr. Ouequi's assist., ant, his wife or th ci'y clerk. But called throe on his own account, Mr. XV. Wilson, Mr. James Laylielcl aud Mr. J. Allison, the latter of whom bore testimony to the fitness of phrenology and his own belief in the same. Professor Cozens then took the stand in his own behalf and swore as to his status in the phrenological world. He declared that, Mrs. Ouequi's statements were untrue, and was ready to be imprisoned for the good of the phrenological cause. From this high perch Mr. Planta brought him down with considerable humor. The professor did not appreciate the free advertisement he was getting and dubbed the Nanaimo folk as most ttuappreciative of him aud his work. The case wus remanded till Friday, the professor in the meantime promising to con- fiue himself to ticking the charts. The seoond civrc was tho Cvsaok family quarrel, which was further re nanded till Friday. The aristocratic vag., yclept Montague, will bo released to-day. NEW PRINTS AND NEW A Spocdy Capture. Chief McKinnon last evening reoeived u wiie from Chief McLaren of Vancouver to arrest Jennie Vincent, described as of IS years of age, with black hair aud blue eyes. Sho had left Vanoouver iu the company of one Powell, who is recognized in that city as a vag and gambler. Powell at first said that he was married to the girl, but lie was unable to show anything co verify that statement. Consequently tho chief took possession of the young person and Powell was given a Bhort time to clear out of Nanaimo. Tho chief located the parlies very boon after receiving the wire.

I - ce. er .-wocrfOBiisjimc co> to urge you to shorten these two long years, anil as Dunbar scorns meditating a similar petition I am hopeful of aucceos." All tins appeared right and natural, but why should Jasper, usually so free and open in converintion, manifest an embarrassment, so foreign to his nature? George evidentlydQQB not trust him, and even Rose is ill at ease. These thoughts passerimipidly through Mr. Newton's mind while Jasper was '���peaking, and a dull pain was at his heart, but concealing it ho yuiotly replied: "Thanks for your steadfast interest in me and mine. But I can consent to no change to the time already fixed. Ahasty marriage now would setxu to mo very much tts if I had no longer a home to "ivo my daughters. On the contrary, I ;*an surely make them comfortable, though in a stylo vastly inferior to their present condition. But I prefer that there should bo no separation as yet and hope they will agree with me. We cannot settle on any definite plan until we are sure of how much wo may claim. But by a full conversation this evening wo can judge somewhat how near our several tastes may be brought into unison. Next week will decide to a dollar how mui '1 we may honorably claim from the remnant of our possessions. "I am very confident that we may at least count on $8,0*00 clear���that is to say, I am sure'the furniture'of the house may safoly bo considered as our own when oven-thing is settled. That is about the extent, I think, of all that can bo loft UB, But the furniture will easily bring the sum I havo named, perhaps more, and yet reserve the common articles for tho fitting up of some small cottage. This will seem to you children but a meager amount, but it is quito a fortune compared with your parents' beginnings. And now, George, my son, with so limited a capital let ns hear. What business would best suit your tastes and abilities." "Why, father, I am very humble this evening," said tho young man, laughing. "It is very easy to give one's tastes and judgments theoretically when there is no idea of putting them to the test. I feel I would just like to put myself in your hands, father, like a little boy once moro, and n.*;k of you to make of me what you please. 1 was not so humble this morning, mother, when I was talking so grandly. But father can make some use of me, I know, and after creeping awhile I'll learn to walk like a man. 1 understand the rudiments of mercantile business anil am perfectly willing to enter npon it, though not congenial to my tastes, but I imagine it will be just as well to leavo our tastos out of tho question and think only of usefulness and duty. "I have always felt thnt if I over settled in a home of my own I would leave the city and buy porno very beautiful country placo and bo an amateur former and horticulturist. But you see, good friends, the country seat jo not at hand just now, und i doubt if 1 could pay my way in any f rming operations until I have served my apprenticeship." The inimitable lni;*.ior aud drollery of his manner were highly amusing, and a quick glunce frill of meaning passed bo- tween hit! father nnd mothjir. But suddenly all Bportiveness vanished from George's fare, and ho continued with much enrnoi'tncss: "Seriously, father, I would repeat what t, said honestly a few hours ago. Let your children work while you counsel and direct. I for one will gladly give all my powers to accomplish any plan you may deem advisable, but I do not feel myself competent to mako a choice for myself." "I confess I am not so modest as George," said Eustace, With o pleasant smile. "I have two grand and good plans which 1 em so proud of that I cannot willingly let any one speak before I havo unfolded them. Have I your permission to explain them now?" bowing to Mr. Newton. "Oh, yes. fat hor, let's hear this second Daniel," interrupted Ralph, with good natured mockery, "With all my heart," rejoined his father. "I wish all to feel perfect freedom and desire tho wishes and judgment of all before I express my own. Your*, Lillian, should have been called for first." "Oh, Lilly will be obliged to think just as I do, you know," said Eustace playfully, stealing Georgo's rosebud from her hair and imprisoning her hand in both of his as she raised it to prevent the theft. "There, now X can speak with greater ease. "Plan the First���In accordance with a suggestion you mado some time sinco, I have been bringing all my foreign business to a close, at least so far as to obviate the nocessity of my sp< ndir.g any time abroad when I am so fortunate as to have this lady under my especii.l guardianship. Last evening our ship brought the papers from India that consummated tbe desired arrangements on the most favorable terms, far bettor than I anticipated. To your early care, Mr. Newton, I owe tho first steps to prosperity, and to your judicious counsels tho continued increase of au income small indeod when first placed in your hands, but now amply sufficient to warrant the proposition I am about to make. "As soon as your affairs are adjusted I would like to purchase your preient store, ��_f|_ A tfV\\ HJ '' ' ���J "Oh, Lilly will he hWnia'tn think just as I do, you Inline." retaining the proseni sign of Newton ci; Co., and continue the same business, askingyou to retain your ori.'^nal position and tako George as a partner with us. Then, on the old spot, wo will, GoJ willing, with you for the head, build up a business that shall equal the former. I wish I could keep my Lillian in this grand old home until her father could once more claim it honestly, but that can wait, in the future. How does this proposition strike you?" The idea was so entirely unexpected that each face exhibited varying shades of intense excitement, and all eyes were turned toward Mr. Newton. It was some time beforo ho could command his voice and answer. "My dear Eustace, you havo been as a son to us from the hour you wero first committed to our care, and this unexpected and generous proposition is but another evidence of how well you deserve our love." "Oh, do not set this down as an act of generosity, I entreat. You know that merely in a selfish point of view it would be ono of the most promising arrangements I could make. Your name at the head would be worth thousands to start With. I but put in thsmonej'���which! should never have bad lint for yon���you tho i- finence, which every business man knows in your case would be worth double my money. So please do not put me to the blush by crediting me with any higher motive thau my own interest and pleasure." "Well, my son, no doubt it is your pleasure, and wo will' let it pass under that name of ninny meanings. In mo; t respects yonridea is a very escolknit one, but. you will bear with mo wuen I say i would not wish to have it perfected. First, it would be very trying to my prido to assume my place without a penny to invest in the concern. But, ii it yere best for all, I could easily conquer prido. Secondly, as I now leave-it, I am free from all reproach. No om can justly accuse me of wrong. I re: Ir - from the business a poor man. But it.. in a few weeks begin again in the stun* place and business With one who is tobt a sou for one pnrtner and a sou for w third and the concern goeson asit nothing had changed, whet, can prevent tin most honest i.e.irted person from fearing and the slander loving from beliovii:* that my failure was -imply an assignment of property into the hands of a relative, leaving me ns rich, perhaps richer, than before, while Le Barron is utterly destroyed? Ah, ��� Eustace, even now in anticipation you feel that this would no be a wise course. Then, thirdly, I am Ci years old. Tho anxieties of the la three months have hot made me younger, and I own I greatly desire to relinquish mercantile life and make the second b< ginning on another field if wo can lighi on n pl.-tii V' t is desirable to ell.

Duriiig the month of February we are always busy taking stock, and naturally come across a large number of Odds and Ends. Now you know yourself���or at least most pt ople know���that it DOES NOT PAY to carry goods over from one season to another. You see, those goods that lay on the shelves from year to year, until some of them are almost old enough to vote, are eating themselves up in interest, and interest is one of those things that increase at a most alarming rate, especially if you are not watching it pretty close. Now this is what we are going to do. Commencing Thursday, February 1st, we shall institute an immense Remnant and Oddment Sale, and shall surprise everybody by the insinuating manner in which we shall throw stuff out over our counters and tables. You can't but admit that we have gtven you some big surprises, one way and another, in the past year. But THIS TIME we shall cause the most incredulous to exclaim, " Well, I don't see how they can do it." Remember, this Sale is only for February, and as there are only 24 working days in that month, you will require to get around about every day while it laste, so as to reap the full benefit. .:.
