Hundreds of boxes of fruit and wagon loads of material for other displays were taken along Vernon street and disappeared through the doors of the fair building during tbe morning and afternoon and were gradually placed in position.

City Is Crowded The hotels long before the coast train reached the e'ty last night were filled to capacity. In many cases the Teglsters showed that the various host- elrles had heen unable to accommodate tbe Btream of guests which flowed through their doors from an early hour yesterday morning and that they had been compelled to send them to Tooms previously engaged in ■ other places. The corridors in the passages of all the big hotel9 were filled from end to end with cots and the man who obtains a room in an hotel tonight, unless he has made a reservation, may count himself more than fortunate. Fortunately, however. Nelson ts supplied with first class boarding and rooming nouses and the visitor will find little difficulty in obtatnlne a room In one of these.

Ethel Devere, who will hold herself high In the air to. a frail bar by mean-} of her teeth and perform other equally difficult and Interesting feats. These free attractions will be given both tn the afternoon and evening. Other features of this afternoon's attractions will be the eagerly anticipated game between theiNelson aad, Hossland lacrosse teams and the roch drilling contest for which a specially hard piece of rock has been obtained by the fair directorate.

EVERY ONE MUST WEAR TAGS TODAY Committee of Fair Sex Will Carry Out Scheme to Raise Funds for .General Hospital, If an attractive young lady trips up to the visitor to the fair today or tomorrow and says, "Will you buy a tag?" he must not think that someone Is trying to work off a new confidence game on him or that she ls endeavoring to get rich quick by a new method. The fair visitor will be one of those selected by the hospital directors nnd a Bpecial committee appointed at a meeting held yesterday to carry out the tag (scheme of raising funds for the Kootenay Lake General hospital. Needs the Money. The institution is entirely supported, with the exception of a government grant, by voluntary subscriptions and is badly In need of money. The idea of collecting funds by the tag scheme has been carried out with the greatest success in the large cities In the east and on the west coast and the directors believe that a considerable sum may be obtained by the same method in Nelson. Tag Committee. At a meeting held in the board of trade rooms yesterday afternoon, at which J, M. Lay, Oeorge Johnstone, Fred Irvine and Miss Graves, Miss Baett, Miss Glgot, Miss H. Glgot, Miss Oliver, Miss Hazel GKire, Miss McLeod and "Miss Florence Johnstone were present It was decided that all the ladles at the gathering should constitute a special committee to take charge of the work, with Miss Gore as convener of the committee.

After one tag has been purchased the wearer will be Immune to all other tag-sellers. Two Days Only. It was" decided that the tag-sellers Bhould carry out their work today and tomorrow only. Five thousand of the little cards have been obtained by the hospital directors and they expect that the [majority of these will be sold by tomorrow night. The cause is one for which people usually contribute generously and this, together with the fact that they will be asked to do so by some of the most attractive members of the fair sex in the city should result In the hospital exchequer being considerably augmented during the two tag days. This method of raising funds is entirely new tn Nelson, The lady who sells the greatest number of tags and who takes ln the largest sum of money will be presented with a handsome prize. "Don't Be Shy. Girls." "Don't be Bhy, girls," said one of the directors yesterday. "Go right after them. Make everyone wear a tag and support the hospital. Don't let anyone escape."

REDMOND ATTACKED BY SINN FEIN Tour of Irish Missionaries Begins With 1 Hostility—Funds Unaccounted for by Irish Leader. NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-The arrival here of John Redmond and lily party of Irish nationalist parliamentarians has been the occasion of an attack by the Sinn Fein, which has issued a statement printed in the Times, which says: "No accounting has ever been' made of the funds subscribed for Mr, Redmond and his party; this money is controlled by two or three members of the party, and any member who will not do their bidding or who has the temerity to ask for any accounting is expelled from the party and deprived of his salary. "The present English government came into power by reason of the support given it by Mr, Redmond's party, and could not hold office without the aid of that party. 'For the first time In many years the Irish party holds the balance of power and copld make or unmake the English government at will. .They could have forced the present government to pass a, home rule bill if they were really in earnest ln their desire for home rule. They did not break with the liberals because they were tied by monetary and other considerations to the liberal party as the check for $10,000 from Lord Tweedmouth shows." EIGHT HUNDRED DOUKHOBORS IN Special Train Brings Big Party Through From Saskatchewan—Majority Destined for Brilliant. At 1 o'clock this morning there arrived at Proctor, by barge from Kootenay Landing, the special train conveying between 700 and 800 Doukhobors from the Yorkton district, in Saskatchewan, destined for the Brilliant and Grand Forks colonies in this province. The party, which was In charge of Paul Palapoff and Simon Verishan, was met at Proctor by John Sherbinln, agent of the Brilliant colony, and second in command in Canada, of the Doukhobor society, of which Peter Verlgin, now at Verlgin, Sask., is the head. The special went through to Its destination this morning and over its whole route made considerably faster time than the regular trains. "About 200 of the party are going to Grand Porks," said Mr, Sherblnin last night, before he left by a late freight for Proctor, "and the remainder to Brilliant. At the latter settlement we are putting up a large number of double tents for their immediate accommodation. Twenty frame houses have been completed there this summer, the lumber for which waB sawn at our settlers mill, and we have 40 carpenters at work now on other houses. Before snow flies our whole community or 1500 souls will be comfortably housed. Brilliant is our main colony, that at Grand ForkB numbering 450 persons. There are about 6000 members of the Doukhobor society ln Canada, and the arrival of this last contingent leaves about 4000 Doukhobors in Saskatchewan. Ten Thousand Acres. "Our total land holdings In British Columbia consists of 2900 acres at Brilliant, 2500 acres at Pass creek, 1100 acres at Slocan Junction, and 3500 acres at Grand Forks. The first three are operated for the present from Brilliant, but In a year or so, when we have much of the land cleared, we will start a community at Slocan Junction. Our new settlers mill at the latter point will commence sawing next week. "At Brilliant we have 600 acres cleared, 250 acres being planted to fruit, while 50,000 trees have been ordered for planting this fall and .next spring. There are 50 colonies of bees, and they have been doing very well. In addition to the native flowers, we are sowing certain kinds of grasses, including a variety of mustard, for the bees. "We are completing an eight-room hospital, antl next year we will build a school. Beside the concrete reservoir we opened In the spring, we are building another, also of concrete, 150 feet long, 70 feet wide, and 13 feet deep." FORI GEORGE SHE UNSETTLED Indians Refuse to Surrender Their Lands DIVISIONAL POINT FOR GRAND TRUNK Blocks Acquirement of Reserve by Railway Company —Ancient Burial Place {Special to The Dally News.) VICTORIA, Sept. 27—Despite the fact that it had been several times announced, apparently with official cognizance, that the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway company had, through the Dominion government, acquired the Indian reservation at the junction of the Fras'Sr and the Necbaco rivers, as a site for thetr new divisional point, and the future city of Fort George, Beml-offlcial communication to the provincial government from Its representatives in the Cariboo district, indicate that the acquirement of the reserve by the railway Is by no means a fact accomplished. Indeed, according to the latest advices on the subject received through the resident priest, the Indians have, at a great council meeting, positively decided that they will not give up their reservation. A major argument with them at this council meeting was long possession, it being pointed out that the tribe has now held possession of the reserve for upward of a century, being in such possession before Simon Fraser came, or the Hudson's Bay Co. authority found a foothold and that the bodies of the fathers of the tribe are here interred, a circumstance regarded by the British Columbia Indians much as it would be hy the Japanese exponents of ancestor worship. At present the Fort George Indians would seem to be the masters of the situation. They decline to give up their reservation and a way to make them do so has not yet been hinted at. RUMORS OF DISSENTION IN SPANISH CABINET MADRID, Spain, Sept. 27—The Catholic newspapers here are filled with stories of cabinet dlssentions and freely predict that the manifestations to be held next Sunday will force Premier Canalejas to retire on the evening of the assembly of the Cortes on November 1. They say further, that Count Romanos, president of the chamber of deputies, will succeed him. The lat- ter's friends declare that these reports are part of the clerical campaign. • HOUSTON MEMORIAL • Subscription lists of the John • Houston Memorial fund have • been placed in the exhibition pa- • villon, for the convenience of • visitors.

REVELATIONS AT HOSPITAL ENQUIRY Horrible Methods at Toronto Isolation Hospital—No Disinfection Nor Precautions taken. TORONTO, Ont., Sept. 27.-"I had to remove the bodies of patients from the win's to tha hospital morgue. 1 disposed of tho mattresses from the diphtheria and scarlet fever wards and also the poultices and the garbage; I had to send up the milk. I dipped out of the cans Into bottles and put them on the dumb waiter. I did not tako any precautions. I never received orders that J had to disinfect myself." These statements made by William Russell, second engineer of the Isolation hospital, after persistent questionings by Corporation Counsel Drayton at the hospital inquiry constituted by far tbe most damaging criticism of the management of affairs at the hospital brought out by the investigation. The engineer in his evidence showed that he had gone into both the diphtheria and scarlet fever wards on the same day without disinfecting himself ln any way, had removed dead bodies, taken Infected mattresses to pieces and had then handled the milk supply of the hospital.

SQUATTERS HAVE NO LEGAL CLAIM Uovernment Seeks Solution of Difficulty—To Protect Settlers In Dominion Railway Belt (Special to The Dally News.) VdCTORIA, Sept. 27—The question Of the rights, If any, of those squatters who have domiciled themselves upon the timber limits within the Dominion railway belt of the Robb McLaren Lumber company was once more be'ore the provincial executive at the meeting of the ministers held this morning. Although the squatters apparently have no right of title in law to the lands they occupy, the government does not desire to act with harshness towards them, nor to preremptorlly evict them from their holdings If some other solution of the difficulty can be arrived at, a position supported by the interested company, which ln the case in question appears to be acting ln contradiction to the much cited dictum that corporations are not possessed of souls. After considerable discussion of the interests involved yesterday the executive referred the entire question as one largely departmental to Hon. Price Ellison, the minister for lands, who will give It hia early and careful attention in the hope of evolving a solution acceptable to all the parties concerned.

SPLENDID FRUIT GROWN AT FERNIE Fernie Population Growing Steadily- Most of Arrivals From British Isles—Build Homes. (Special to The Dally News.) FERNIE, Sept. 27—The experiments In fruit growing which have been made in this district for the past few years have proved eminently satisfactory, the apples and grapes especially in the vicinity of Elko, Baynes Lake and Jaffray, being of the highest quality. There are large tracts of land suitable for mixed farming and fruit growing and this will undoubtedly be taken up in the near future, and as there is a rapidly increasing market for all that can be produced success is assured to those who settle on the land. The Fernie-Fort Steele Brewing company have purchased a splendid team of heavy draught horses from the P. Burns company at Cranbrook and will use them for their local trade. Fernie haB grown In a very satisfactory manner this year, the population from a conservative estimate now reaching the respectable figure of 7400.. Most of the arrivals during: the past' six months being from the British Isles, though there bas been quite a number from other European countries. A gratifying feature of the Influx is that most of the new comers have built or purchased homes for themselves thus assuring their becoming permanent residents.

VANCOUVER TO CHILLIWACK VANCOUVER, Sept. 27—The last spike in the 60-mile Interurban tram line from Vancouver to Chilliwack, the longest in western Canada will be driven on Monday. The line and equipment has cost over $3,000,000. It traverses the entire valley of the lower Fraser country containing over half a million acres. A new strike has just been made on the Wiess group of claims in the Ainsworth silver-lead camp, according to Sam Underhill, the well known miner, who was In the city yesterday. Manager Everett, of the Minneapolis company that is developing the property under bond, has progressed 160 feet on the large cross-cut tunnel that Is expected to cut the three veins traced on the surface of the property, the first at 300 feet in, the Becond at 500 feet, and the third at 1500 feet, A few days ago a blind quartz lead was encountered, in the tunnel, of galena and wire silver, the native silver showing in vuggs or cavities in the quartz. The width of the vein was about a foot, and from the appearance of the ore It was Judged to carry good values. No drifting has yet been done on this vein, and the tunnel is being proceeded with. ThiB property Is the nearest to the town of any of the operating properties, and is situated on the south side of Cedar creek. Eureka Trail Built, E. B. Irving and J. P. McDonald, .the well known Sheep creek miners, have arrived in the city, after completing the new trail to the cabin of the Eureka gold mine on Caribou creek. The trail leaves Sheep creek at a point opposite the intake of the Queen flume, and passes by easy grades about 1 1-2 miles to the cabin. About $1000 has thus far been expended on the trail, and a month's work, and all that now remains is the putting in of.a small.bridge at one point. Mr. Irving states that Green Bros. & Burden, the well known Nelson surveyors, nre completing their lengthy task of surveying the quantity of water in Sheep creek and its main tributaries, for the provincial government. Thev are also surveying for the Mother Lode mine, for water for the proposed mill, which Is to be located at a point on Sheep creek immediately below the mine. Messrs. Irving and McDonald are owners, with \V. Kennedy and James Van Hook, of the Rainy Day nnd Four Flush mineral claims, on Wolf creek, which were staked hy Mr. Irving a short time ago. Mr. Kennedy, who is the chief owner of the Eureka, now under bond to the Van Houten-Heymann syndicate of Vancouver, for years was aware of the existence of rich float on the ground staked by Mr. Irving, but it remained for the latter to find the parent ledge this summer. New Wolf Creek Property. "This ledge runs like a pavement through both claims," said Mr. Irving, in describing the property. "In fact, it Is the most prominent surface showing of the kind I have ever seen, and I have mined in a good many countries. The vein matter Is fully 10 feet wide, and in various places small veins run into the main vein. "My idea for developing the property Is to form a company, rather than to bond it, thus retaining for ourselvea an adequate share of whatever the mine will eventually yield. We are going ahead to develop, and will take up the matter of a company at once. "I have only been on Sheep creek a year," concluded Mr. Irving, "but from my experience in a lifetime of mining I fully expect to see in the future, not merely a few big producing mines In this camp, but a very large number of producing mines. ,1 have never been in a gold camp that had anything like the number of rich showings. If the Sheep creek camp were in Colorado, there would be a ruBh that would fill tbe papers and thousands of men would be at work developing the many promising properties," NEW SECTION ASSUMED BY GRAND TRUNK PACIFIC WINNIPEG, Sept. 27—On Saturday next the G. T. P. takes over from the National Transcontinental commissioners the section between Winnipeg and Superior Junction. As the G. T.

The Rossland lacrosse team are not likely to find any soft snap in their match against the Nelson aggregation today. Manager Hawkins, as the lineup below will show, has selected one of the smartest collection of boys that could be found in the interior. It is almost impossible to make comparisons between the team tbat will play today and that which went down before Rossland last week. The latter was little more than a friendly game, and no great efforts were made by the local men to get together a really first class aggregation. For the two matches with Rossland here there is a different story to tell. Manager Hawkins and every member of the team were confident last night that they could meet any collection of players Rossland can send over. Can Strengthen Team More. "If necessary," said Manager Jimmie last night, "I can strengthen our team even further. It all depends upon whom the other fellows bring along. Last week they played a couple of men from Moyle and that helped them a whole lot "If they put the same kind of team into the field as that which beat us at Rossland tbe present line-up will go. If they strengthen up any I'll do the same. The stronger bunch they send along the better. I think we can beat them, anyway." The line-up of the Nelson team unless Manager Hawkins decides to make it still stronger by one or two changes, Will be as follows: Line-up. Perrier, goal; Greyerbeihl, point; Manhart, cover; Ball, first defence; Lacey, second defence; Irvine, third defence; Nute, centre; Ferguson, third home; Newborn, second home; Pierce, first home; Salter, outside; Steel, inside; Correy, Miller and Cummins, spare*. GOLDEN CITY WEAKENED ROSSLAND. Sept. 27—The Golden City men will make a special effort to win at least one of the two lacrosse games they are to play against Nelson during tbe fair and although their side ls considerably weaker than it waB on the last occasion the teams met they are of the opinion they will accomplish their object. Some of the players who did duty a week ago are unavailable for the games and thus Manager Billy Prest and Captain Harry Stanton have to rely on players of not quite equal calibre. Still they are equal to pulling up a good game and are fully determined to give the Nelson fair visitors a classy exhibition. During the second day's game Cosgreff, Rossland's speedy young sprinter, will replace one of Wednesday's players. The Line-up. Rossland's line up for Wednesday will be: Goal, Inches; point, Valen- tyne; cover point, Stanton; first de fense, Morgan; second defense, Wail; third defense, Evans; centre, Berg; third home, Ehlers; second home, H.

VANCOUVER, Sept. 27—Arrangements have been made for an exhibition game between the National lacrosse team and the New Westminster players here on Saturday. Newsy Lalonde Is improving rapidly and will probably be in the game. The Nationals say that this will alter the complexion of the play as they claim the loss of their star last Saturday had much to do with the poor showing the team made. LOCAL RIFLE TEAMS MEET The Slocan- rifle team have been challenged by the Nelson team to a return match here during the fair. It will probably take place tomorrow morning.

VANCOUVER, Sept. 27—James Sullivan, "Bobs Jim," former president of the Amateur Athletic union of the United States, looks upon Jack Gillis, Vancouver's elongated policeman of athletic tendencies, as the man to trim both Thompson, winner of this year's all-rounds at Chicago, and Martin Sheridan, the invincible. A friend of Sullivan's, who also Is a keen admirer of Gillis, was asking the big athletic authority what he thought of the Vancouver man's showing in the all-round championship events at Chicago recently, where the tall cop pushed Thompson of Los Angeles bard for firBt place. Sullivan's reply waB that had Gillis been properly handled, as the other contestants had been, he would have trimmed Thompson easily and also would make too stiff a showing for Martin Sheridan to negotiate. The big smoke's idea was that Jack took things too much as a joke and did not show enough interest in the competitions, spending most of his time jollying everybody in sight. These bits of information and hints came to Gillis' hands in a letter from New York and Long Jack promises to pull a face as long as a wet week when he goes back next year to gather ln the premier laurels in the all-round events, From such an authority as Sullivan the opinion of Gillis' capabilities ls of Bterllng value, for Boss Jim knows what he Is talking about when he opens up on field athletics and It behooves would-be champions to sit up and take a little bit of notice of his utterances anent the material on the Vancouver city police force. KAUFMAN FORGOT How some pugilists forget the Instructions of their handlers the moment they respond to the sound of the gong was shown by Al Kaufman ln his bout with Bill Lang In Philadelphia. In the fourth round, with a minute to go, Kaufman shot out a Btraight left which caught the Australian squarely between the eyes. The blow Bplit the bridge of the nose for firat blood and was promptly followed by a hard right hand swing which landed just under Lang's ear. The Australian staggered as he threw himself into a clinch snd hung on until the round ended. When Kaufman came back to his chair Billy Delaney said to him: "That's Just the way to lick him.

RULES FOR BA8EBALL FANS It Is suggested that rules be passed next season which will put the ban on six classes of baseball fans: 1. The man who says, "It's an error; he got his hands on It," after a marvelous stop. 2. The chap who bowls, "Hit it out!" whenever a sacrifice is attempted, 3. The idiot who explains to his friend, "He passed him on purpose," there being two out and nobody on base. 4. The fathead who seeks to show his intimacy with the players by shouting out their first names. 5; The dotty one who howls, "Don't forget to touch second!" 6. The Imbecile who emits a war- whoop whenever his favorite comes to bat. There are others, but this will suffice for a start. Here ls something for the National commission to dally with.

SPORTING SPOTLIGHTS The Stanley cup is still held at Ottawa. In his .grand burlesque tour Jack Johnson ls taking with him three automobiles. It costs the black ohamp $250 a week to care for bis gasoline pets. "Keeps me out of mischief" explains Jack. "When I'm not automoblling I'm hanging around bar-rooms. Besides, when I want to give my friends a ride I bave plenty ot machines to go around." In the $250 given as the weekly expense of keeping these costly toys no account is taken of fines inflicted by beaks who attempt to put a damper on Jack's ardor for speeding. Leo McQuary of Tacoma probably has the distinction of being the youngest pitcher ln professional baseball. He Is just under 16 years of age and has thoroughly made good with the Vancouver club In the Northwestern league. He pitched against the Tigers on Friday and beat them, allowing only six hits and keeping up a steady pace and length throughout the game. American league fans are betting on the AthletlcB to win the world's series next month. Yet the Cubs have the better chance on paper. One reason Is that the American league haB been beaten in the last three years, and three carries weight In superstition. They might make it three times in a row, but the National leaguers could not wrench a fourth consecutive victory from tbe Americans on the "law" of superstition. Another reason is that the general public clings to the "under dog." It always wants to see a little fellow whip a big one and tbe downtrodden haul one over on the oppressors. The American league is the "under dog" ln baseball as regards the world series. Several pugs are calling themselves welterweight champions of America but there Ib only one holder of that title, the colored Dixie Kid, who almost knocked out Willie Lewis at the National Sporting club in New York recently. The Dixie Kid Is not well known but has been fighting for some time though engaging with obscure opponents. But the records show that on April 29, 1904, he defeated Joe Walcott in a 29-round go at San Francisco. The Kid, however, ls nothing like a world beater and may be subjected to a severe test in the near future. From the weBt comes a challenge from Jim Howard who will give him the fight of Mb life. Howard Is a terrific hitter and quick as a streak. Says Harry Roche, the California referee, "Howard Is a knocker out and he can whip all these alleged welterweight champions with ease. I'll bet that he can stop the Dixie Kid ln a few rounds. A record of which any minor league magnate should be proud, that ot producing a bunch of major league talent unsurpassed by any In the country, ls that claimed by Bob Brown, manager of Vancouver's Baseball club. During the past season Bob has sold four players to the big leagues direct, through which sales he will realize $9550, Two of his playerB have been drafted by the majors, and another has been sold to Bill Carney, of Calgary. And In addition to selling this batch of major leaguers, Brown has retained the neucleus for a penant- wlnnlng team for the rest of the season. A few additions to the players he has left will make the '11 Vancouver team as strong aB could be wanted. In the London Vacation court recently, counsel reminded Mr. Justice Scrutton that he had granted leave by telegram to set a case down for hearing. "I remember," the'Judge replied. "The application waB made to me when I was golfing, and just before I made a very excellent shot from the tee; and I granted It before I took my putt" They are hawking "Mitchell sandwiches" and "Mitchell lemonade" in the booze cage at the San Francisco ball grounds. The next thing will be the "Mitchell cocktail." And all this fame arises because "Mysterious Mitchell," the new San Francisco pitcher who Is making the Pacific coast leaguers sit up and take notice, refuses to say where be comes from or give any account of his previous record. Pending the arrival ot hounds the members of the Winnipeg Hunt club have decided to bold a paper chase on Saturdays until further notice, says a Winnipeg paper. The descent from the sublime to the ridiculous seems easy in the prairie capital. The Man Who Wires Your House for electricity ptatm at rour command a hundred comforts and conveniences.

ELBOW GREASE AS AGAINST FISHING Mr. Koch Says Ranchers Can Realize Wages From Their Timber If They Are Industrious 'It la quite true that almost every small ranch that Ib being cleared has considerable timber on It of one kind and another that, when properly worked up, has a market value," said W. C. E. Koch, the well known lumberman of Koch Siding. "Now that you ask me, Mr. Freeman, whose Interview was published a few days ago, was not very far wrong ln hts statement that the ordinary method ot clearing laud was wasteful) and that the lumber mills would be willing to absorb a good deal of the timber that is now burned. Slow Market But Sure "Take for Instance, cedar poles or ties. The C.P.R. consumed large quantities of ties. But when It wants them it wants them In a hurry. It Is too late then for orders to be given. But if some rancher has had a growing pile of ties alongside the track for some months, the C.P.R., having had itB eye on that, when the sudden need comes, sends down a car and takes them at the market price. Similarly, the call for poles Is spasmodic. Some day a large order comes to a mill for poles, from some city that Is putting In a telephone or street railway line. We don't keep these poles on hand, but If the ranchers in the locality have made a certain number of these poles, and hauled them out, the mill will send down and get them. Ot a similar character ls the demand* for poles for fencing. "By making up poles and ties an Industrious rancher can regularly make his |2.50 or $3 a day and the only drawback is that he usually has to wait a while to realize on them, on account ot the spasmodic nature of the market. But though there Is a demand only at Intervals, lt ls none the less certain and all tnat the ranchers can turn out can be absorbed, and more. Fishing Interferes "Now, the trouble with the average rancher Ib that, when he Is advised to work up some of his timber ln this fashion, he Immediately sits down to figure out what there Ib in lt for him. His Idea is to hire a man to do the work, and make a profit. At current prices there Is not much of a profit for that kind of business, and when he fails to get the mill to offer more than lt has to sell the completed product for he drops the proposition. Meantime he has a pleasant time, while the hunting and fishing are good, "On the other hand, an old trlend of mine goes on cutting ln all his spare time, and when his pile of ties or poles Is Bold, perhaps early, perhaps late, he has realized wages for his time. Can Make Wages My claim is that any 'industrious rancher can realize considerable for his timber. If he is new to handling an axe he may not make very great headway the first few days, but it will not be long before he is making wages steadily. If, however, our friend Is out for a soft snap and is looking for a profit without work, he is pretty sure to go on in his old way.V TOWN PROPERTY IN CRESTON SELLING FREELY (Special to Tne Dally News.) CRESTON, Sept. 26-—There has been quite a boom ln town property in Creston during the past week. The demand has centered around Schofield avenue, which will be the direct highway to the center gates of the new park and many lots have been sold in thiB portion of the townsite. One local firm Is handling .this section and during the past week 28 lots have been turned over whilst the demand still continues. Whilst most of these sales have been to local Investors there has been considerable investigation from outside points and with the vast possibilities ot the valley and the assured future of the town becoming Increasingly known there can be no doubt that city property will continue to attract the favorable attention of Investors. M. McCarthy steam shovel foreman for the C. P. R. with hiB home fn CreBton, came home last Friday from Alberta where he has been employed lately. Mr. McCarthy says that the extreme high wind and changeable climate of Alberta did not agree with him and he was forced to go into the hospital at Macleod for a while. However, Mr. McCarthy returned to Alberta last Wednesday feeling much better In the hope that he would be able to continue his work. C. M. O. Brlen, M.L.A., for Alberta, was not very fortunate In the date of his address under the auspices of the Socialist party of Canada a few days ago. Owing to there being a meeting of the Farmers' Institute that same evening, there was not a large audience. Mr. O'Brien Is a fluent speaker and his address was an exposition upon the usual lines of the principals of that school of political thought which he represents. WILY HINDU REFUSES DIET OF PRI80N (Special to The Dally News.) VANCOUVER, Sept. 27—The author- Itles of the provincial jail In New Westminster have trouble on hand ln connection with Imram Dhlnn, a Hindu .prisoner who was this week sentenced to a year's Imprisonment for an unnatural offence. The prisoner absolutely refuses to eat the Jail food and Is abstaining on water alone, saying that he oannot eat food prepared by others than, of his own caste. The man's solicitor has appealed to the court and will make a special plea to the minister of justice, stating the peculiar facts of the case. The authorities believe the starvation attempt is merely a ruse to obtain special attention as Uie prisoner ate a meal of food prepared by white men during the preliminary hearing.

DESKS AND OFFICE FURNITURE Complete Furnishers and Undertakers PROFIT SHARING WITH EMPLOYEES A. E. Watts Tells of New Scheme to Assist Employees—Also Giving Land on Terms. By A. E. Watts, Wattsburg, B. C. The Wattsburg Lumber Company, Limited, are irrigating several sections of land at Wattsburg and are dividing it into 'small farms for employes who desire to make permanent homes. Lumber and materials for building houses, barns, etc., will be supnlled at wholesale prices on time. Any employe can become a landowner without capital, as easy terms will be given 'for payment for any reasonable length of time from one to twenty years on condition that 8 per cent interest per annum Is paid and a deposit ot 6 per cent on purchase price of land and buildings. Independence Assured. It has already oeen proved by years of Experiments that $500 to 11000 worth of produce can be grown per acre on the land under irrigation. With a small piece Of land under cultivation a man can raise with very little labor, enough to support a family and there will always be a free ranee for cattle on the adjoining hills, and by keeping a cow, a few pigs, poultry, etc., he may be practically Independent ln a few yearB if he will pay attention to mixed farming which, with the aid of irrigation, always ensures a crop that will pay. Small fruits can be grown In abundance for which there will always be a good market,. Vegetables for pickle making also make a profitable crop and the company will undertake to purchase all surplus produce that can be grown ln that line at the highest market price and will provide canning, preserving and pickling works for that purpose, bo that no grower need lose any part of his crop. Profit Sharing. As a further Inducement to white men so that the company can dispense with colored labor, shares In the manufacturing business will be given to employes upon the face value of which there has been paid up three-fourths of the amount, leaving one-fourth to be paid by the holder. •Profits will be divided as if the Bharea Were full*' paid up and part of the profits Can go to pay for the balance of the shares. Thus a man can become the possessor df shares and a partner In the "business without investing any capital. But it is not intended to allow any.person other than those employed In the business to become shareholders and as a safeguard against the shares being offered for sale to the public they will only be transferable from one shareholder to another. Any steady, Industrious white employe will be given share certificates upon application ln writing; the value and amount of which Will be determined by his character and conduct far the six months prior to his application. Milling Business Permanent The general Impression prevails that the milling business Is a temporary or transitory occupation, but in this case it need not be so, as the company already controls sufficient timber to keep us mills ln operation GO years and Its other Industries, such as sash and door works, wood pipe Works, etc., can be carried on continuously, Whether trade be good or bad every effort will be made to provide those who desire to make permanent homes with Steady employment. The shares mentioned ■will be worth more than their face value as there will be no watered stock. The Value of the company's property exceeds three-quarters of a million dollars and shares will only be issued for f600,000.

FOSTER Manager WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 28 WELCOME TO NELSON There is every Indication of a very large attendance at the fair and of a very large collection of exhibits. It only remains for the attractions to come up to expectations and for visitors ' from outside points to find hospitable accommodation at reasonable prices, to make the event a great success and to pave the way for still further progress next year. To her visitors Nelson extends a hearty welcome, especially to those of other parts of the Kootenay. Anything that brings together the people of every district in the Kootenay-Boundary country is greatly to be desired and it is not the least of the merits of the fair that it should do this in so large a measure. ■ There will he some splendid exhibits, but really the best exhibit in the Kootenay and the beBt advertisement it can have is one that cannot be sent away and that can be seen only upon an occasion such as this,—that is, a representative crowd of the people of the Kootenay. One of the best advantages that any country can have Is the sort of population that Is represented at the fair, and It is a good country that holds that sort of a population. GUARANTEE PERMANENCE OF THE BRITISH PREFERNCE There are two ways of giving a tariff preference to this or that country. The most obvious is to declare that the duties on goods coming from that country shall be lower than the duties on goods of the same kind coming from elsewhere. The other way is to pick out the sort of goods we import from that country and to make the duties on those classes of goods lower than the duties on other classes ot goods. Woolen goods are imported into Canada chiefly from Great Britain. In the manufacture of such goods Great Britain excels. If the duties on woolen goods imported into Canada, no matter from what country, were reduced greatly or abolished altogether, the benefit would go almost wholly to Great Britain. Similarly we Import lumber chiefly from the United States. If duties on lumber no matter from what country are reduced, the benefit goes almost wholly to the United1 States. What has been done in these two instances Illustrates what has been done ln many others. The general tariff on woolen farics Is 35 per cent. Great Britain Is given a preferential tariff so that in the case of such goods when coming from Great Britain the duty is only 30 per cent. On rough lumber and on lumber dressed on one aide only the fluty has been abolished altogether, no matter from what country it comes. ThiB ls not called giving the United States a tariff preference, but It is obvious that the BrltlBh woolen manufacturer would much rather have the duty on woolen goods removed altogether than have to pay 30 per cent, and then be told to be thankful because it is not 35 per cent. Some of our anti-Imperialists occasionally comment upon the fact that our imports from the United States have grown more rapidly than those from Great Britain "despfte the British tariff preference." It proves, they say, that the'natural market for us to buy In la the United States rather than Great Britain. As most of our anti-imperial- IstB are also free-traders—hy theoretical profession at least—it seems a little Inconsistent that they should declare a country with a high protectionist tariff to be a better one for us to buy in than are new and entirely different from ordinary preparations.

Apart from that, however, it may be surmised that if the government had placed woolen and other goods imported from Britain upon the free list, while the duty on lumber and other goods Imported from the United States had been given "preferential tariff" under which they were required to pay 30 per cent, then Imports from Great Britain might have grown more rapidly than those from the United States. The duties which still remain upon British goods, even under the preferential tariff, are not the sole reason why there has not been a greater Increase in British imports. To sell their goods here in large quantities, they must create a selling organization and they must manufacture goods adapted to our markets. All this means the outlay of a good deal of money. After they have gone to all this expense and have worked up a good market here, what security have they that it will be permanent? How do they know that the duties on their goods will not be raised so as to shut them out? That is exactly what happened In the case of the British woolen manufacturers. Under the preferential tariff as originally framed there waa at once a great Increase In the Imports of British woolens and the Canadian manufacturers protested. The government then raised the tariff upon woolen goods so that even under the British preference the duties are among the highest in the tariff. When rough lumber was put on the free list there was a corresponding increase in Imports from the United StateB, and the Canadian manufacturers protested, but in this case without effect. Rough lumber and lumber planed on one side only remain on the free list. The principle of a British tariff preference is good. It should be given real and substantial application. It would be an unfair exaggeration to say that up to the present the application has been wholly nominal and Illusory. But It has been largely nominal andlUus* We are today starting a Special Shirt Sale AT GREATLY REDUCED PRICES Good dark working shirts, c°lored cotton shirts in fancy, patterns, with soft fronts.

The duties upon the sort of goods we purchase from Britain or could purchase from her should be reduced so as in no case to exceed fifteen or twenty per cent, and there should be a guarantee of Its perman- ence.-rthat is, for instance, that the duties on such goodB should not~b"e raised for a period of twenty-five years or without ten years' notice. The giving of a real and substantial preference should not be made conditional upon the receiving of a tariff preference-In the BrltlBh market. The British tariff reformers are right in believing in a policy of tariff preference, and when they convince the BrltlBh electorate It will come. It will not come until they do. Meanwhile the more British goods Bold in Canada the greater will be the interest of Great Britain fn the development of the Dominion. And Great Britain can aid that development in more ways than one. EDITORIAL NOTE The concluding sentence in Joseph Gaskell's letter, published yesterday, should have read: "And British Columbia, by free imports of necessaries, would, by being able to build her commercial navy, as well as the Dominion navy, become the manufacturing and commercial rival of any country on the Pacific ocean." We do not regard the suggestion made in the letter as at all practicable or desirable.

BEARS ARE CAUSE OF MUCH TROUBLE Coming Close to City Frighten One Man and Cause Another to Fall Over Cliff. The habitations of humanity as represented in Nelson seem to have a peculiar attraction for members of the Bruin family. On Labor day a big black bear created much consternation by appearing late in the afternoon at the head of Stanley street. He was fired at by two men with rifles, but succeeded In escaping Into the bush. J. J. Foote Meets Another. Last week J. J. Foote, foreman of the city sidewalks department, was walking home along Hall Mines road after dusk when he saw some black object move ln front of him. He Investigated and was rewarded by Bruin making a stop and emitting a fearful growl, Mr. Foote went home another way and left the bear in possession of the field. Loss of Memory Explained. On Saturday Chief of Police Young found a man In a seml-comatic condition slttin" on the sidewalk near the Hudson Bay block on Stanley street. The stranger was unable to give any account of himself. He seemed dazed and knew neither his name nor where he came from. He was placed In tbe city jail for the night and the next morning regained his memory. Bear Pursues Him. To Chief Young he made a statement to the effect that he was walking along the railway track near the mountain station on the previous night ]ust after dusk when he met a bear. The animal seemed either very inquisitive or bent on mlB- chlef, and started after the stranger. The latter Btarted to run as rapidly as he could in the opposite direction and fell Your Fall Shoes Await you at The ROYAL All the new styles in Button and lace. Ladies, gent's and children's.

He landed on his head and remembered no more until he regained his senses In the jail the day following. A big bruise on the back of lib- head bore out the portion of his story regarding the fall. Whether all this excitement and annoyance ls being caused by the same bear or not ls of course a matter of conjecture, but several sportsmen In the city have stated that they Intend to Investigate with rifles and as many good dogs as they can collect. They hope to find Bruin, either shoot him on the ground or make him take the tree route and pot him from below. Squirrels Come Down, Too. It Is most unusual for bears to come so close into the city at this time of the year and those best acquainted with the habits of the Bruin family are unable to account for the occurrence. In connection with the peregrinations of the bear, or several bears, appeared on Stanley street, Hall Mines road and the railway track near the mountain station, it Is worthy of note that there seems to be an exodus of aqulrrelg from the hills Into the city. 10 boxes APPLES at $1.10 per box PHONS 229.
