Johnson smiled anil Jeffries calmly chewed gum. After a long opening session of sparring Johnson shot his left to the face and they clinched. Johnson pushed Jeffries back and swung his left to the jaw, and as Jeffries roughed it at close quarters the big black shot his left again to the face. The men locked arms and in the break Jeffries clouted his man twice with two short arm lefts to the face and the crowd yelled, "Why don't you laugh?" shouted Corbett at Johnson, and the latter winked and smiled back at him. BOUND ONE The men continued in a lucked embrace and as the gong terminated the round Johnson playfully patted Jeffries on the shoulder and went tu his corner smiling. Jeffries then told his seconds to let him alone and he would fight his own battle. It was a tame round. ROUND TWO Johnson came up chattering liko a magpie but Jeffries only smiled. "He wants to tight a little bit Jim" yelled Corbett. "You bet I do Mistah Corbett" retorted the champion. As Jeffries held ou Johnson clouted him with a wicked right to the jaw. As the men separated from a clinch Jeffries swung his right to the stomach to which Johnson retaliated with two ripping left uppercuts to the jaw. The men closed together Jeflries leaning against the champion with the sheer weight of Ids shoulders, lt was a case of strength against cleverness with the nubiaii having the better of it. Johnson and Corbett kidded each other incessantly during the minutes respite between the second and third rounds. ROUND THREE Both came up slowly. "Come on Jim," said the champion when he hooked his left to the stomach with much force, Johnson tben jabbed his left twice to the face and as they closed in, breast to breast he whipped a left uppercut to the jaw and neatly blocked tho boilertnak- ers onslaught. As the men circled about the ring Johnson kept up a constant cross fire of conversation. The men separated and Johnson jabbed thrice with left to face and whipped a short arm right to the lace. A long clinch followed during which the black missed a wicked right yppercut. Jeffries rushed but the black blocked him neatly with a vicious right swing and again patted his antagonist on the shoulder. As tho round ended, Johnson on points had a good advantage but there was uot much power behind his swings. ROUND FOUR Jeffries got in a right to the mouth and the blood started flowing I'roin thc colored man's lips. First blood for Jeffries, yelled tlie crowd. Johnson shot a hard left to the moot li and almost rushed him to the ropes. That golden smile bad not fueled from the black's face at this I stage. Jeffries forced tbe champion against tbe ropes and j half a dozen short arm punches I found their mark in rapid sue- 1 cession. In response, the champion shot a rigbt to tho jaw and the round ended. ROUND FIVE. Johnson as usual came up with a volley of wonls. Jeff paid no attention, but rushed in close and they wrestled for ! a spell. At close quarters Jeffries shot two rights to the body to which Johnson res- ' ponded with a left uppercut, j cutting Jeffries lip a bit. Johnson drove his right to the jaw and then followed it with two left uppercuts to the sam '• place. Johnson jarred the white "with a straight left to the mouth and they eased up in a cinch. Both men were bleeding at the mouth. Suddenly Jeffries set the black's head back afoot with a straight left to the ! mouth and Johnson looked a | bit serious as he took his seat, J not, without giving the boiler- I maker the customary round of ! love taps. No serious damage done. KOI MI SIX. "I'm going to mix with him now," said .Jeflries to his seconds. Three lefts radiated from the champion's shoulder catching Jeffries on the face in each instance and the blood seaped from Jeffries' left cheek bone. Both men fought cautiously. A ringside fan asked Johnson if he would like a drink. "Too much on hand now,"quickly rejoined thecham- pion and he ripped iu three left uppercuts to the while's jaw. Jeffries waded in but was met with a nasty left uppercut that closed his right eye tight. The negro followed this with two similar punches and tbe blood spouted from the retired champion's nose as he took bis seat wben the bell ended the round. Jeffries' seconds worked heroically on his damaged optic. Johnson's round. ROUND SEVEN. Jeffries came with a ferocious frown and they closed in. A long sparring followed without a blow being struck, the champion meanwhile carefully prini- j ing himself for an opening. Although the retired champion's eye was badly bruised he never ; lost his poise. The champion laughed sarcastically as the other essayed a right swing at close quarters. With the men in an embrace. The black jolted his man three times over the 1 damaged right eye and followed j Ibis with a right uppercut to the jaw. Jeffries stopped the other's bickerings with a straight right to the jaw. Johnson countered with left and right to the sore face. The bell clanged with the honors on the champion's side and Jeffries looked badly cut as be took his corner. ROUND EIGHT. Jeffries rushed in and the b lack drove a left to the mouth land shortly after shot in two 'st might lefts to the face that carried considerable force behind them. "Hello Jimmy," shouted the black. "Did you see thnl one." As they closed in wit bout damage, Jeffries shouted "break nway Jc>lin~im" but be did not break and laughed as I lie ox-champion missed tl serious left swing.

Deep down somewhere in human nature, as irradicable almost as the lirst law of preservation, is the lure of gold. Men who have once felt the gold fever surge through their veins are never more, as long as the breath of life lasts, immune. The passion is animal almost in its blindness, it is all pervading and all compelling. Stories of riches in any parallel or latitude will start the rush, and the world is full of men who will follow the goddess of fortune through blinding snow, over glacial ice, across burning sands or trackless sea. Almost every great movement in the world has had at its basis tho lure of gold. Columbus sought a short route to the Indies of tabled wealth when he found America. Cortex pursued the treasures of the lncaz and , Marshall at Slitters Mill started the movement which eventually mapped the Seirras and conquered tbe American Desert, while even in our own Canada, the Cariboo, the Klondike and the reel's of Cobalt have hud much to do with tbe opening up of tbe unknown which is now becoming tbe home of millions. And so wben we read of fifteen thousand men in Seattle jostling and scheming to be among those who will go north on the first boats bound for Nome and tbe jiunping-olV places for Idataiod, of millionaires travelling steerage just in order to be aboard of a stampede which has had few rivals in modern times, and none since the Klondike days, tbe circumstance should not be a matter of suprise for it was ever thus. a similiar cose before the Inter- State Commerce Commission which is to rehear it. It was also urged that if the uppers are to sell for a rate less than the lowers, the latter should be increased to $2.50 and the other $2. Ichabod! The boys are going barefoot and patronizing the swimming hole. We used to go barefoot with great eclat but now the thought gives us cold feet. We used to take to the water when its action was like unto the washwoman's "blue," but alas the vitiating hot water tank has brought us on degenerate days. It's a great thing to be a boy. Next to being a girl it has all other experiences beaten to a whitewash. A boy has the whole world before him. A man has the whole world up against him. When boys grow up they put away "childish things." By putting away a little at a time and keeping eternally at it some of them manage to put away quite a pile. Some boys last longer than others. The good die young. This is rather severe on the adult quick. When one is no longer young fie is no longe r good. Of course, there are exceptions—in the case of a few of the best of us. Boys are the salt- of tlie earth. A few of them are all to the alkali. We had a boy at this oflice. No one knew his name. We called him Fogerty. Fog- erty was a genius in many respects, lie could sweep a floor faster than any other boy we ever had. lie could sweep 1800 feet of floor space in exactly nothing. And the job was always satisfactory to Fogerty. If it failed to satisfy a more finicky taste, he was there with t be persuasive powers and could explain to bis own perfect conviction that too much cleaning was highly detrimental to a floor and calculated to havo injurious effects on the moral and physical nature of those who employed it in wearing out shoo leather. Fogerty was too bright for a newspaper oflice and graduated to a butcher cart. All boys are not alike. There is no typical boy. Take the two worst boys in any community and one will be a little worse than the othor. And the other, on closer examination, will be how. We haven't put up our screens yet. He—Hello! A squeeze play! Bully! She—What kind of a play is that? He—My dear girl, you have caught the general plan of the game beautifully, but the squeeze play is too technical. I'll explain that the next time we come. She—Oh, will you bring me again? When shall we come? He—The boss says I may have another afternoon off in 1015. A "Trading" Rat. An animal whose instinct teaches it to give something in return for that which nature has taught it to steal should be capable of a business education, observes the Philadelphia North American. A curious statement is made about the "trading" rat, which is one of the unique and interesting animals met with in the Rocky Mountains. Miners of the region declare that, although these rats enter houses, camps and mines, and take things that do not belong to them, they never take an article without leaving something in its place. They conduct a trade, and hence their name. They enter dwellings at night and steal anything they can find, earring away spoons, knives and forks, bat invariably leaving a chip, stick or stone in place of each article taken away. »*— -»-*-^ When the stomach fails to perform its functions, the bowels become deranged, the liver and the kidneys congested causing numerous diseases.

Engine with a Reputation. Fire recently destroyed the Great Northern roundhouse and two locomotives at Oroville. One, of these engines, number 930, has been on the' Phoenix run several times, but since May :i() has been running into Oroville. A Keremeos correspondent says: "No. OHO was considered a 'hoodoo' among railroad men and no tears were shed at its removal from active service. At one time and another it is said to have been responsible for the death of over a dozen engineers aud fireman and has | done some startling stunts in the way of going over embankments into rivers and lakes, only to be iished out, repaired and sent on its way again.

Why, now, he's dropped the stick and is going away. He—Yes. He gets his base on four balls. She—Why, you story-teller, there's only one ball there. Say, Harry, do the players wear horrid spikes in their gloves? He—No. The spikes are in their shoes. She—Dear me, but I should think that would hurt.

"1 wouldn't have thought you could Stoop to this," said Dorothy. "You couldn't expect to shake my faith in Jerold." She handed Garrison the letter to -how her confidence. Garrison placed it in bis pocket. He turned on the Uobinsons angrily. "You are both involved in a prison offence," be said—"an ordinary, vulgar burglary. I suppose you feel secure in fhe fact that for Dorothy's sake I. shall do nothing about it—today, lint I warn vou that I II endure no more of this sort of thing, in ymir efforts to throw dis iredit on Dorothy's relationship with me! Now then, kindly leave the room. Aware that Garrison held the upper hand, old Robinson wa-s more than chagrined; lie was furious. His rage, how ever, was impotent; there was no immediate remedy at hand. Theodore, equally battled, returned to his attitude of friendliness. "No harm's been done, and none was intended," he said. "There's nothing in family rows, anyhow. Father, come along. *' His father, on the point of discharging another broadside of anger, altered his mind and followed his sun to a room at the rear of tne house. Garrison closed the door. Dorothy was looking at him almost wildly. "What does it mean?" she asked in a tone barely above ;l whisper. "They haven't really found out anything?" '' They suspect the truth, I 'in afrant," he answered. "1 shall be obliged to ask you a number of questions. " Jier face became quite ashen. "I can se" that your employment has become very trying," she said, "but J trust, you are not contemplating retreat. '' The thought made her pale, for her heart, too, had found itself potently involved. "Nn; I have gone too far for that," he answered, making an effort to fight down the dictates uf his increasing love ■ind keep his head thoroughly clear. "In the first place, when you wire vne in the future use another name, for safety-—say Jeraldine, In the next place, 1 am very much hampered by the blindness of my mission. I can see, I think, that the Robinsons expected some legacy which you are now apparently about to inherit, and your marriage became necessary to fulfil some condition of the will. Is this correct?" "Yes, quite correct." She remained very pale. "Who was it that died, leaving the will? And when did he die? "Another uncle, Mr, .John Hardy— .quite recently," she answered. "Vou are not in mourning," "By his special request. He died very suddenly. He left a condition in his will that I. should inherit his fortune provided I should have been married at least one month prior to his death to a healthy, respectable man—who was not to be my cousin." "Theodore?'' She nodded. "You can see I had to bave a husband." "Exactly." Garrison thought he saw a light that •Bleared her as he could have wished. He hastened to a question bearing directly upon it. Did the Uobinsons know of this clause in your Uncle Hardy's will—say, two or three weeks ago?" "No. They knew nothing of it then." Garrison's heart sank. '' You are snre?" "Absolutely positive. Uncle John was very secretive." The suggestion that the Robinsons, having known the eondi'" the will, iad destroyed John He n "'c belief •mat Dorothy, being unmarried, would (ihereby lose the inheritance, was van- shing. Garrison still had hope, "Vou once alluded to certain obligations that—well, compelled you to hire i husband," he said. "Vou had no urgent need of funds in a large amount '"' She darted him a startled look. "I -hall have a pressing need-—soon, I uppose yon have a right to know." Garrison was almost in despair. There »vas nothing to do but go on. "Did Mr. Hardy know anything of 'his need."' '' No.'' "Vou feared lie might not be in sym patby with your requirements?" "No, he— Have these question; inything to do with our—case?" Sh) -.■emed to be frightened. "They have," he said. '' V1 - ur diamonds and pearls.

He took up the rose, indifferent to anyone win, might have observed the action with a smile or a sneer, and slowly proceeded down the' street. The cigar, he reflected, might easily have been stolen in the Subway. A hundred men had crushed ugainsi him. Any one of them so inclined could have taken the weed at iiis pleasure. The thought was wholly disquieting, since if any man attempted to bite the cigar-end through, to smoke, he would pay a tragic penalty for his petty theft. This aspect of the aliair, indeed, grew terrible, the more he thought upon it. lie almost felt he must run to Hie station, try to search out that particular train, and cry for all to hear that the stolen cigar would be fatal—but the thought wus a wild, unreasoning vag ary; he was absolutely helpleBS in the case. He could not be certain that tin' weed hael thus been extracted from his pocket, it might in some manner have lei'i'ii lost, He did not know—he could not know. Ile felt sure of one. thing only—his hope, his ihiinancl, that Dorothy must be innocent nnd pood. Despite his arguments, he was greatly cle'|eressi',|.

The extraordinary feature of the agitation is the way in which it wns exploited for the purpose of exciting animosity against Great Britain. ".John Hull, voila I'onnemi," was the refrain of these agitators, and all the while John Bull wns as innocent as a babe unborn. The facts are very simple. A financial group composed of Englishmen ami Americans sought for and obtained a concession for constructing a railway across -Manchuria from Chin- Chan to Aigun on the Russian frontier. tt was to be a rival line to the Itussian railway traversing the same region, and at onevpoint it actually crossed the Kus- sian line.

"Weil—nothing to say to you but go ahead," said Wicks, as they neared the Grand Central Station, where he meant to take a train. "Stick to the case till you clean it up. That's all." Garrison, presently alone on the crowded street, with nee particular oh jeetive p..im in view, felt thoroughly depressed anel lonely. lie wished he hnd never discovered the poisoned cigar at Branchville. Mechanically, Ids hand sought his irged weed irclieel his cup tee support their efforts, and he promisee! to do so, somewhat heedlessly, without looking up the treaty obligations which governed the1 situation. Russia, how-1 ever, was neet so unmindful of her rights. I She objected to tlie construction of this: line, and put forward an alternative I scheme cef her own. which of course wns j opposed by the Anglo-American group. Sir Edward Groy was appealed to back up the Chin-Chaii-Aigun line and oppose' the Russian rival scheme. But at this I point the Russian government reminded I him of the existence cef the Agreement | entered into between the British nnd I Russian Governments iu April, lsfin,' whereby in consideration of Russia's j promise not tee seek for concessions in the basin of the Yangtse, Kngland explicitly bound herself not to support any railway schemes north of the Grent Wall of China, either on behalf nf her own subjects or of others, and at the same time undertook not lo oppose, directly or indirectly, arty Russian railway projects in the same region. The Agreement has never been abrogated, Russia has loyally abstained from seeking concessions in the Ynuglse basin. assured officially that, the American Gov eminent had no object ion. British policy then went pari passu with American policy in supporting the construction of the railway with Japan as a participant'. Russia's appeal to the Agreement of ISO!) compelled Sir Edward Grey to adopt a more negative attitude. ' The question lies now between China uud .lap.tn. While mutters we're in thiB imbroglio, Mr. Secretary Knox jumped in wilh his proposal to hand over tbe control of all the Manchuriiin railways to an International Board for the purpos* of solving the problem, and at the same time of securing guarantees feer the open elonr and equality of opportunity for al" nations. Englaref was heart and soul with the object of the proposal, but as to the means, she reserved her opinion until Russia and Japan—the Powers most interested—had expressed their views. Russia and Japan would not listen tee the American scheme, which died stillborn. Tt is out of these unpromising materials that a vigorous but. unfortunately, ineffectual attempt was made to represent John Bull as intriguing to thwart and baffle American enterprise. In reality, John Bull hud done nothing except draw back from backing an Anglo-American enterprise, which, in 1.K99. Lord Salisbury had promised should not be supported. eenlv 1111 the mer AMEEICA'S LOST CAEEYING TRADE IN the Cosmopolitan Mr. Lewis Nixon, writing on "The Crime of our Vanished Ships," bewails the miserable position of America's mercantile marine, ami discusses what might be done, not exactly to recover lost ground, but to get American goods carried in American bottoms. The article is timely, .because of the Bill before Congress (or shortly to come before it), and supposed to he favored by President Taft, tn re-establish America's mercantile marine. This Bill, the Humphrey Bill, tlie writer thinks inadequate, as it is based upon "the wrong principle of subsidy." disapproves. Mail lines are portant ns helping to establish e'antiie marine. Subsidies, the writor insists, are not tlie remedy for the' sickly slate* 01 American shipping. (Ine tiling that is not being clone nnd (hat ought to be done is to secure that the Panama Canal shall be a free highway feer American vessels, paying no heed tee suggestions that a free canal might irritate trade rivals. Peer the past fifty years Americans have devoted their attention to monopoly, and now they themselves are the victims of the biggest of all monopolies— that of shipbuilding and the arts and accessories of navigation. How, without a. pneper carrying trade, get rid of the four months' product of American factories, since it is estimated that America's own needs would be supplied if the factories worked only eight months in the year. Americii 's foreign credit should be 8-11,000,000 dollars, but of this 300,000,000 dollars are paid to foreigners Her carrying American cargo and American passengers, and this apparent credit balance may very easily become a debit balance, taking freight in foreign vessels, insurance, etc., into account. In tlie past thirty years six- billions of American gold have 1 n ox portcil iu this way. "We cannot buy back our com meree," thee writer concludes — "it would cost too much.

PICTURES BY TELEGRAPH A.N interesting article in the London Magazine is that by Mr. T. Thome linker upon "Picturos by Telegraph." A diagram at the beginning shows how a picture actually is telegraphed: "A photograph" says the writer, "is every bit as simple as n message and is just as ca|iiible of analysis, lt is composed of 'tones' of various densities, and these tones may themselves be divided up into segmeuts of any size we please, however small. It is theBe small segments which are wired, one by one, and which are built up by the receiving instrument to form a truthful reproduction of the original picture." One of the most successful picture- telegraphy instruments is the telautograph, invented by Professor Korn. The lirst picture' telegraphed to England by Professor Korn's early machines was one, of the King, which is reproduced. The date of the transmission of this picture—which is ns important as many others—was November 13th, 1907. There have been various interruptions to telegraphing pictures between London and Paris. At lirst the telephonic lines were often at fault, and one could only occasionally be secured for a time long enough to transmit a picture. The introduction of the telectrograph, which marks a great step in the transmission of pictures by telegraphy, is the invention of tlie writer of this article, Mr. Thome Baker, and by its means half-tone photographs can be transmitted witli a delicacy and precision leaving little to bc desired. The new system i.s based on principles actually evolved as long ago as 1847, but only rocontly adapted to use for telephotography. The receiver is far simpler than that of Professor Korn, and it reproduces the photograph dot by dot on a piece of specially prepared paper, bo that it is possible tee watch the actual appearance of the picture. Still more wonderful, the writer says lie has actually transmitted wireless pictures in six miiiutfes by means of a special form of apparatus adapted to the telectrograph. So far, experiments have been e-nrrieel out only over short distances, but in time they will be carried out o\ or long one's. Wireless tele-photo- grnphy (or photo-telegraphy), it is easy tee believe, will have an enormous influence' on thee ilevelcepinent of Ibis remarkable branch of science, feci- there are technical Factors limiting the rate at which n picture can be transmitted over a long distance cubic.

YOUE OPPORTUNITY IS NOW CANADA LOAN & REALTY.CO. Ltd. WINNIPEG, MAN. Tlio bluck evening gown has not of iato been nearly popular a- a few seasons since. Certainly every well gowned woman includes at least one smart, evening gown her season's out lit. but no longer is it possible to feel smartly gowned in a black gown for any and every occasion. To be effective now the black gown must, be of the richest quality antl must bo conspicuously trimmed to look as smart as the gown nf light color. The'crystal, steel, silver, gold and ilia-) maute trimmings will transform any black gown, and the embroidered tulle tunics are of immense assistance this sea- ! sou iii giving thc desired note of offectiveness. A revival ol' a charming fashion of many years ago is seen in the evening gowns that arc cut round instead of square and finished with the plain bertha of chiffon or tulle.' edged with fringe of silver, crystal or gold. A black satin I gown made in this fashion with a tunic or borders in black J tulle and the bertha edged with silver, bead fringe aud silver roses where tho bertha fastens, is most becoming. The same model, however, carried out iu rose pink or a light shade of nattier blue is more effective, This season great attention . is paid to the lines as well as the trimming of the waists of evening gowns; there are several attractive styles with the square lines, but among the newest are more with the round i off thii shoulder cut; the lumono effect is again given by the surplice folds of chiffon over the shoulders or by the lace that goes over the shoulders and finishes the top of the waist. The fashion still prevails of the sleeve dropping below the shoulder quite apart from the gown, but the lnce that trims the waist shields the arm itself and softens the rather too eccentric effect wonderfully. Lace fa used this Season more lavishly than ever and flounces, berthas and shawls of real lace family heirlooms nre now being brought, out from treasure boxes and made use of. Flounces, with bertha to match, trim satin voile de side gowns of all shades, and the lace is so used that its beauty of design and texture is displayed to the best advantage. Embroidered nets and lares that are not to be found in any treasure box, but arc of the most recent manufacture, are in great demand for the summer evening gowns, and there are many women who contend that the modern laces can hi utilized to far better advantage than can the most valuable old family lace, especially as one of the strongest of unwritten laws, to tlie effect that reul lace must never be cut, exerts the most extraordinary Influence over all women. The dnibroidered nets and laces of the moment are certainly beautiful enough tn satisfy the most captions critic, and it must be conceded that it is far simpler to deal with the new than with the old. Silver ami gold laces are extremely fashionable und are well adapted for the trimming of all evening gowns. There nre many different designs nnd textures, some light and line with more net than design, others heavy of mesh and heavily embroidered as well. Thoro are shaped tunics and garnitures of net and lace, mnbroidorod in gold or silver, that transform tho simplest satin or voile de soie gown Into n superb and costly ball gown. .\ heavy mesh of silver uel studded with silver bends and a heavy gold net with border of gold' bends are effective with a gown of satin made with draped I skirt. These motnl laces arc quite transparent, und, lined; j witli pale pink chiffon, gtvo tl (feet of a much lower cut j i wnist than If the wnist were of satin, and it is surprising how soft nud pliable un- the laces, for H is not difficult lo drape them in fichu or bertha effect.

J. S. T. Alexander, government agent, has applied for an appropriation for a steam road roller. We hope this is granted as the use of it on the roads and streets of this district would make an appreciable difference. Fred Gareau received the sad news that his brother, Hilaire Gareau, died at Ottawa on the 27th of June, 57 years of age. Mr. Gareau is a well known lumber merchant at that city. Uis mother died on the 14th of June. Dominion day in llosmer passed off very quietly. There wtts no celebration of any kind. The llosmer Mines laid off, and many citizens took advantage of the delightful weather and went to the neighboring towns to spend the day, On Monday July 18. tlie ladies of the Catholic church will hold I a basket social at the opera house. This.will be the first event of tlie kind, tfivon by the : church, in Hosmer. Everybody ' is cordially invited. There will be ico cream, a good program, and the affair will be brought to a grand finale with a dance. We do not know what the weather will be like here a few days hence.

It would be a great thing for tlie country if tin* govern nt insisted, as they do iu some European countries. Sam Medwik had rather an exciting experience on Friday last. Sam had given an assignment of his wages to A. McL Fletcher, who, hearing that Sam had yumpod his yob, had him arrested for obtaining goods under false pretenses. The case, however, never came to trial, and it appears that the police court argument is a hummer iu tint matter of collecting bills. When the lire whistle is blowing is no time to think about insuring your house and furniture. Don't put off another day. Vou should also consider what company you insure in; R. W. Rogers represents the best companies. D. V. Mott, of Fornie, sold two attoinobiles in Cranbrook last week for the Ford Motor Car company. This is the record. The cars were sold to W. H. Wilson and J.T. Laidlaw of that city, it is said that P. Matheson has ordered a Ford car which will be delivered next month. The Ford cars are taking quite well on the Cranbrook market and tire considered safe and efficient. It litis been definitely settled that the Catholics of Hosmer are to erect a church. The building site will be oppoisite the hospital on the west side of the track overlooking the beautiful Elk valley. The building will be 30x60. Much credit is due to the untiring efforts of Father Salles, in accomplishing the end of an object of so much solicititude. The building operations will commence about Aug. 1. An unusual sight, and one which goes to show how the country is opening up, was witnessed in our streets the other day. A prairie schooner loaded with settlers' effects passed through the town on its way to Alberta. We have no doubt that this will be followed by others, iis this valley is now the direct means of communication between Washington and western Montana tind the broad plains of Canada. A matter that might well be taken up by the Board of Trade is the question of sidewalks. There is not a town of this size in B. C. that does not have sidewalks, and visitors to Hosnier invariably remark upon the lack of that convenience. The few sidewalks we do havo in town have been built by the owners of the property they front, and we think the Board of Trade would do well to petition the Government to have the principal streets equipped before we get tlie muddy weather in the fall. For some time past there has existed a state of affairs at the Coal Creek store that led those in charge to suspect that the cashier's department was not receiving the gross proceeds of sales over the counters. Chief Constable Arthur Sampson was asked to look into the matter. Suspicion rested on a clerk named Basil Dick. A trap was laid by the use of marked bills. Two sales were made in consideration of the marked money, but the cash tailed to materialize at the office. Dick was arrested and on being searched the. money was found on his person. Ho appeared before Magistrate Axexander, of Fernie. charged with theft and was sentenced to four months in Nelson jail. Soreness of the muscles, whether induced by violent I exercise or injury, is quickly relieved by the free application of Chamberlain's Liniment. This liniment is equally valuable for muscular rheumatism, and always affords quick relief. Sold by all druggists. Jeffries' Greatest Fights.

"It went through without a hitch and we hold the world's record for attendance, purse and receipts.
