"Carlow has not suggested It either." Denies All Knowledge Pattulls concluded by denying all knowledge of any arrangement for raising campaign funds by liquor commissions. M. B. Jackson. K.C., was called. He told of his application on behalf of his client. Thomas for a foreshore lease and how action had been delayed. Eventually Carlow came to see him and said he was applying for the foreshore for Thomas, but could not make any progress because Jack- soii'h earlier application had prior right. Alfter this Mr. Jackson's firm stepped aside aside and let Carlow proceed with his application. Ultimately the lease was delivered to Jackson's office. The firm acted as truBtee of a fee which Thomas was paying to Carlow. Questioned about Carlow's statement that he and Carlow had agreed to split Carlow's 15000 commission, Jackson replied: Denies Statement, That's not true. There is not _ scintilla of foundation for the sug' gestlon of fees. Carlow came to my office when I apparently had the right of way in the matter of lease. Carlow was then most anxious to get ahead with his proposition be. cause he needed the money. He did suggest that If I would give him right of way ln the lease applloa tlon, he would be willing to divide a commission of $6000, which he was getting from Thomas with me. I never was offered, I never received and would not accept any of It. I did not give him right of way and promised to advise- tho lands department that I was not standing in the way. which I did." Mr. Jackson declared that no note had ever been Issued in his favor in the transaction.

NEW TORK, April 16.—A foreign policy devoted to the protection of American citizens and the maintenance of peace was outlined tonight by President Coolidge as ln keeping with the new position In the world ln which he pictured the United States.- "We were struck by the fact that farmers themselvse control their economic life, asking relatively Uttle governmental supervision or assistance. The Danish educational system has been made an Integral part of the economic life. In some Danes' opinion, the country Is really overorgan- lsed. In Germany and Poland we found evidence that these peoples were making every effort to Increase their agricultural and Industrial output, putting aside the political animosities so rife at the end o( the war." Speaking before the dinner of the United Press association, commemorating the twentieth annlverysary of that organisation, Mr. Coolidge discussed at length the problems Involving this government ln Mexico, Nicaragua and China. Sees Adjustment The president saw difficulties tn carrying Into effect such a' proposal as that of the senate for arbitration with Mexico of the dispute growing out of the nation's oil and land laws and forecast an amicable adjustment of this situation on the basis of a recent conference he had with the Mexican ambassador. He revealed that Ambassador Telle-: recently brought word to Mexico City that American property would not be confiscated by the Mexican- government Assurance was given by the president ln his address which was devoted almost entirely to foreign affairs, that wherever an American citizen goes, "the duties of our government mast follow him." He said rotectlon of American lives and property constituted the main problems of the United States government In both Nicaragua and China. "Our government has usually been too remiss, rather than too active ln supporting the lawful rights of its citizens abroad," he added. "That has been so long our established pol icy that It is rather difficult to con celve it assuming a truculent and arrogant attitude." No Aggression in China Taking cognizance of contentions in some quarters that America was imperialistic, Mr. Coolidge disclaimed any program of military aggrandise ment. Declaring that the friendship of America for China Is "proverbial' tho president said that no course of aggression Is in mind. "We are there to prevent aggression against our people by any of their disorderly elements," he added. "Ultimately the turmoil will quiet down and some form of authority will emerge, which will no doubt be prepared to make adequate settlement for any wrongs we have suffered." Plan.

Special music was rendered by the S. T. choir under the leadership of Mrs, S. J. McDonald, who officiated at the organ. J. S. Donaldson made the prayers, and Dorothy Bowman read the lesson. Hymns wer« given out by S. J. McDonald. A quartette, "For Me," was sung by W. Coleman,' Miss B. MocKenzle, ,Miss R. Hartwig and Leonard "Webb. An anthem, "Almighty Lord," was rendered by the choir, and a duet, "Thy Will Be Done," was sung by Misses R. Hartwig and C. May. The benediction was pronounced by S. J. MdDonald. Eternal {-scoring For when the one great 'scorer comes, To write against your name, Ho write* not that you lost or won, » But how you played the game, With the above words. Rev. F. R. G. Dr-edg. introduced his subject. He said it was nice to have the honor'of winning, but that was not what mattered most. The one who was the best ought to be the winner. "Sometim%s In sport we do nftt want the bpst to win, and put obstacles In the way. That is not fair play," he said. Referring to certain sports out here the speaker said /many from the old land were disgusted at the favoritism shown. In the game of life God could not be deceived. When the score was made out It will be those who had played fairly who would win In life's contest- In sports each team has its own coach. Jesus, he said, was the great coach in life. In this world his life would not *be looked on as a success, but there was no greater victory than his achievement of the cross, as he wae the greatest example of one who had played the game. To be abreast of other uprto-date nlties in taking modern methods to keep their citliens posted on Information to their advantage, the city council last night decided that Nelson must do, as tbe others referred to do, and do regular1 newspaper advertising, it was decided to contract for regular space in the advertising columns of The Daily News, covering the next year, the space to be used three times a week. One of the uses of this space will be to boost regularly those services the city has for sale, by reason' of its ownership of public utilities. The average public company anywhere on this continent that Is aggressive is using regular space In the dally newspapers ln order to seA the commodity or service, and cities thai are in that line of business are coming to do the same. Protecting the Citizen Another use, and one of the chief ones, that the mayor and aldermen count on making of the city's advertising space will be to inform the citizens of things they should know about their civic affairs, that it would be to their advantage to know. Thus, it was mentioned last night th-at there are points about the building bylaw that do not seem to be generally known, including the fact that there Is a penalty for doing building with out a permit. Another mentioned was that under the plumbing bylaw the householder Is entitled to have any plumbing work done for him passe*] upon by the city plumbing inspector. If the inspector passes it, he will iBSUe his certificate. If he does not pass it, the plumber will have to do It over to hiB satisfaction. Probably the first advertisement, which will run about May 1, will advise the citizens that their tax bills and due, ami will give the details of their 'duties and privileges with respect thereto. A red hot campaign for "Save the Forest Week" ln Nelson Is being prepared behind the scenes, and. no fewer than four committees are at work on various aspects, while silver- tongued orators are getting up thetr "dope," Newspaper advertising and advertising by cards are to be used, In an endeavor to arrest the attention of the public to this absolutely vital matter. The money to cover the moats of thia advertising is being put up by business men tn Nelson who reoog nlze the importance of preserving the forests, which provide, directly and indirectly, such a large part of the subsistence of this district. Speaker* will endeavor to implant in the young generation, by addresses in the schools; the doctrine of being careful with the forests and taking every precaution to avoid fires, while no opportunity will be missed in connection with any rrteetlngs that may occur during the week.

Books of early travelers reveal a shoreline of forest sometimes hundreds of miles without a break, save -the mouth of some tributary liver. Denuding of Its watershed destroyed the thousands of square miles of uponxe, that received the torrential rains, soaked them up, and when saturated finally let the load of water out slowly and measuredly, so that the rivers rose, indeed, but not to o point of overflow. If one wants to -get a comprehensive picture of the Mississippi, from all Angles, including that of floods, let him read Mark Twain's "Life on the Mississippi." Ths Inhabitants along Its shores Insist on having the land for crops, and on pushing back the forest frontier, and the only answer to that Is the costly system of levees, dykes maintained at groat cost, and which periodically fall—as is hap penlnf, at great cost of life and property, just now. In tact, one wonders if in the future the Mississippi valley may resemble China, which has now no timber, though once a l.ml of forests. Floods are annual in China and are scourges of the land and of the people. Vilhjalmur Stefansson, the Canadian explorer, wrote a famous book called "The Friendly Arctic." Last year Arthur Hemlng, ihe Canadian artist and author, wrote a wonderful story called "The Living Forest." Both are tales of how men can live tn ths wilderness. But some author, with the necessary knowledge, Imagination and skill, should undertake to tell the tale of the innumerable uros of Iho forest to man.

The pressure of impending traffic U very great, and a great volume of inter-Ko-otenay traffic will immediately appear, aB well as inter national traffic, as soon as the roads are really attractive. In addition to that, the floodgates of through motor traffic are, in the opinion of many, to be raised this year, on account of the Cariboo highway. Conservation and improvement of the main highways already constructed, connect! ng Kootenay cities, or giving access to the boundary, cannot come too soon. Mary had a little lamb.

Answer — Perhaps some reader friend may happen to have this recipe and will be good enough to write it on a postal card nnd mall it to me for publication? Bride — "Are the white' dimity spreads now used on beds under the kind of cover that has a pillow-sham strip or else that is made In one piece long enough to tuck under and over the pillows? - Answer—They are not used in many hnmeB, hut I personally like the simple white dimity spreads over the blankets on my beds, and then the white "candlewick" design spread of unbleached muslin on top of that. These pretty candlewick bed spreads come without fringe for a little over $3 in many shops; or they come with the heavy white twisted cotton fringe for around >6. At night, when you fold up and lay aside the candlewick cover, you have the dainty dimity spread there to keep on the bed all night. E. T.—"I dislike Ihe stripes of the blue ticking pillow covers showing through my cotton pillow cases. What can be done to hide them? Answer—Many women make white nr blue or yellow or pink eateen slips to go on the pillows under the cotton or linen case (the color of the sateen slip deppnding upon the color scheme of your room, of course.) These sateen slips hide the stripes of the ticking and at the same time act as a pillow-protector (just as a mattress cover acts as a mattress- protector). Soon-to-bemarried—"I am making my own linens for the dining table and kitchen alcove, and I have spent no much money on them that I have very tittle loft over to make bureau and dressing table scarfs. Can you suggest some inexpensive materials o make these of? Also give suggestions for a pretty way to make them." Answer — T think the simplest bureau runner are the prettiest. Why not use white dotted swiss or lawn, which is ihin, and under which you nan use a cover of colored sateen to show through the white material? 1 would crossstIt<-h my initials on them, and also cross-stitch a border design. Tomorrow—Canning Our Strawberries Address inquiries to Miss Klrkmao and Inclose stamped -addressed envelope for reply.—Editor. During the war It was found that in the countries where ttxt, butter, .-ream, cheese and so forth, were scarce, that the increase in tuberculosis was most marked. Oleomargarine wm used to a considerable extent, and although tt Is __ harmless preparation it lacks some of the body bufId ing essentlaIs of butter. With the addition of a little trow butter and eKg yolk to oleomargarine, one rrseorcn man tells us that a body building product could be produced. Another research man haa produced figures 40; show that In 24 families, consisting of 162 persons In all, the matter of whether or not they ate fat. was the big factor, from the standpoint of tuberculosis. There were two distant groups, "fat eaters," and "fat shy" individuals, and when th-esp groups were investigated with regard to tuberculosis of the Iuiirb the results were remarkable. Of the 10V fat eaters _„ were alive and well, 4 had tuberculosis, nnd one was doubtful. There were 61 "flat shy" persons of whom only 11 were alive and well, 4S had tuberculosis, and 2 were doubtful. The above figures are quoted from the Lancet from an article hy Dr. Voile. They are moat nstonishlng figures, hut your physician will tell you that milk, cream, butter and fat, are a wonderful aid In not only building up the body, but In fighting any Invading Infection. The good results of cod liver oil In "consumption," have long been known. This Is thought to be due to th* fact that it helps to produce lime salts in the body, and in tuberculosis of the lungs the manufacture of lime salts about the infected spot, is one nf Nature's methods of producing a "cure." What is my point? That children should be encouraged to drink milk, to eat cream when available, also plenty of butter, and the fat of meat. It has been pointed out that this Is one place where the youngster shoulid be encnurnged in eat Ihe "fat," even when he doesn't like It. Plenty of fat or cod liver oil will help to make up for an absence of sunlight with "shut in" children. Milk, butter, cream and fat of meats, form a large part In the dietary of the sanitariums which treat tuberculosis. et*w and will shortly begin stumping at Bonnington. • * * Two crews of the hardier men of the Boat club are regularly practicing every morning and evening and are training faithfully withal.

JUHERICKM MOST GIVE EVIDENCE Probe Rules Down Application to Hear Evidence Ib Secret WINDSOR, Ont., April IS.—Ths royal commission frowned today on a suggestion that It should hold a private nit;ing to hear evidence of an American cltiten who fears prosecution for conspiracy If he testified in public. The witness In question is C. A. iSbvard of Detroit, and Hon. N. W RoweJI, commission counsel, stated that he had been lie recipient of lasge liquor shipments from various Canadian distilleries. When the call went forth for Sav- ard this afternoon, his solicitor W. M. Furlong, took the floor. "Mr. Sav- ard is an American dtlsen," he said, ' Mo does not object to giving evidence before the commission, but he does object to giving It in public." If his client came and testified In public, his appearance here might be followed by the Institution of proceedings against him in the Veiled States, said Mr. Furlong. "I suggest that the commission hear him in private." "I think that we had better follow the policy of hearing our witness ln public." Chief Commissioner Brown informed Mr. Furlong. "We had the same situation In Van couver where witnesses were under Indictment In the United States," interjected Commissioner White. Commissioner Roy, said Mr. Sav- ard, profited through ths operation of Canadian law. Therefore It was the duty of Mr. Savard to appear and give evidence before the commissioner.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORT CHAPTER XXXI Ths convict continued hia story to th* listening sheriff: "Things went on for another month until I trapped them. both again and now we're down to where I met him riding in through my gate. Well, as I say, he sat ther* trembling on hia hone. I saw he had a gun on hia pommel, but I didn't bother about that. I knew I could kill him twice •wh-fle he waa reaching for It and I didn't even bother to pull my own gun and get the drop on him because I'd changed my mind about that man. "" I *was going to do -something, worse than kill him If he didn't take program." , : "What was you goln* to do. Bob?" the sheriff Inquired, profoundly interested. "Blake him Marry Kelcey after she'd divorced you?" "No, I planned to tie him up to an adjacent sycamore and wear out my quirt on him unless he agreed to leave the country. So I told htm what waa In my mind and asked htm whloh he'd have. He said he'd like mighty well to hold on to his good Job with the Hercules people and obey my former injunction, if eo be I'd give him another chance. " 'No,* I replied, 'you thought I waq weak when I spoke to you like a gentleman the first time. You thought I waB weaker when I didn't kill you Instead of warning you the second time, and you think I'm a plumb weakling because I didn't keep my promise and riddle you the second your horse set foot on my property. However, we won't argue that point. If I let Kelcey have a divorce, will you marry her?' " 'I wasn't figuring on that,' he answered. . , 'Well, youVe compromised her and nude It Impossible for me to live with her. How does my compromise proposition strike you?" "'I'd rather leave the country.' He was cool and collected now and smiling sort of high and mighty at me." "I know them sort o' smiles, Bob. They'd anger a eheep. Well?" " 'For that insult to my wife,' I told him. 'I'm going to strip the hide fi-om your back nnd then you can go. Get down off that horse.' "And then he led with the curse o' Scotland, eh?'* "Well, ho thought lie was holding n full house, Hherlff. He pulled, fired, and missed me. Then his horse commenced cutting up* didoes. I had my gun In a shoulder holster 'under my canvas coat, but I didn't 'pull It. I swear to God I didn't I figured, with his horse pitching, he couldn't hit me—and I wanted to give him plenty of chance to empty his gun and then see what he'd do." "You tarnation fool! Why did you take such a long chance?" Bob Mason smiled a twisted Jimile. "Of course I kept moving myself. Sheriff, and he kept banging away, missing me every time. When his gun was empty he got hia horse under control and saw me standing looking at him. 'Get down off the horse,' I says. Ho did, on the right- hand side of the horse, and stood there, looking over the animal's back at me. I knew he wae slipping some more cartridges Into his gun, so I waited—and when I saw by the look ln his eyes that he was ready for action again—well, I was ready for him. He stepped out from behind the horse and raised his pistol to bring It down and then shoot—Uke one of those Western motion-picture heroes." The herlff «pat contemptously into the fireplace. "Don't it beat four of a kind how they'll never learn?* he cried. "They bring their weapon up and then down, when anybody, who's ever learned to do fast snapshooting Just pulls, brings it up and lets her go!" "I had two in his guts before he'd finished raising It. That paralysed him, and while he was falling I put another, through his heart and one through hie head. And I'm not sorry- I left him where he fell, got into my car, drove over to Dogwood Flats and surrendered myself to the deputy sheriff there. The Hercules people Had a watchman on their property and they'd had him made a deputy sheriff." "That's where you failed to make your head work. Bob.1* The miserable man nodded. , "He turned me over to Jed Martin, a forest-ranger who used to have the Tantrum Meadows station. Jed had ridden over to Dogwood for supplies, and wm sitting on the -stoop at tha general store when I drove up. Jed guarded me—not that he had to— while the deputy and Jethroe. the president of the mining company, wen* out In one of the company's light motor-truck* to bring the body In. "They brought his horse ln too, but they never brought in his loaded pistol or the sit empty shells lying In the road. They kept that quiet and when my lawyer questioned them about tt at the trial they said they hadirt seen any loaded pistol or empty sheila 'The -storekeeper testified he'd beard roe warn Ortu-t BardweU, so I got the credit for murdering an 'unarmed man in cold blood. Kelcey look the stand and testified she'd heard six shots with considerable time between shots; then, after about two minute*, she'd heard four more, "but Ae hadn't seen anything. The city lawyer reminded the Jury that she was my wife, and naturally ehe'd try to protect her' own reputation by protecting me. '. . .

But the city lawyer obje-ced. said tbe question was designed to besmirch the character of the witness. He waned to know what my lawyer-was trying to prove. "Well, I hadn't any Idea my lawyer was going to pop that one at Kelcey, either, although of course I'd told htm all about the trouble I'd bad. A man lias to come clean with his lawyer •because I wasn't wishful to go to •Ban -Quentin. but I didn't aim to 'smear my wife Just to keep out of Jail, so I objected to the question $oo." -■* "Yea, I was there and I remember tthat More ot your infernal foolish nesa" "The M-usons don't throw mud at their women. Sheriff!" "She was plastered already and an (other dab wouldn't have hurt her any." The shartff was an extremely ^practical man. "There's a heap ot difference between suspicion and proof." "Bah! That woman o' yours had the heart of a polecat." "Nevertheless, she was my wife, and I'd rather rot in hell than throw mud at ber. I had proof that she'd been indiscreet and foolish, but no proof that she'd been unfaithful. She was young and foollab, and it was lonely In Honey .Valley. Folks do foolish things without meaning to be wicked. Sheriff." "How about that telephone con - versa tion you listened in on? Wasn't that oompromisln' enough? You never eaid anything about that at the trial." "H, I didn't. It wouldn't have reflected any credit on me, spying on my wife. I spied for her protection as much as my own. In general I hate spying. It isn't a man's game. And that conversation wasn't compromising. Kelcey just asked him up to talk things over. She told him I was on the war-path and ehe wanted him to be careful and not give me grounds for suspicion. "She also told him I'd made her a proposition and she wanted to discuss It with him. if he wanted her to accept, well and good. If not, then they'd better not -see each other any more. She told him I'd gone up to Modoc to buy some- feeder steers, and It would be safer for him to come up Just this once," - "She was a mighty poor Judge of ■safety, that's all I got to say, Bob. I remember, while the lawyers was argylng about whether that queatlon should be allowed or not, your lovtn' wife took occasion to have taigh- sterics and had to be removed to the Judge's chambers to compose herself.

"I beg to submit a report on the progress of repairs on No. 2 unit at the power plant "This machine was shut down on Sunday, April 2, and we started to dismantle it so that the shaft could be taken out On April 4, by the aid of large bolts, girders and rails, an attempt was made to remove the spider and field colls This was not successful, as sufficient weight could not be produced by this arrangement to make any effect on the spider. 'As a last resort I approached Mr. Wllley of the West Kootenay Power ft Light -company, to see If they could ln any vjay assist with material to give us sufficient power, and they kindly consented to loan a hydraulic jack; which would develop a pressure of 280 tons. By the aid of this machine, and heavier bolts and beams, we were enabled to remove the spider at a pressure of 175 tons. The shaft was cradled, and arrangements were made to have a {English !

It being necessary to reduce ths slse of these 1-22 inch. "The face of tbs coupling was not square with the shaft, and it was necessary to also turn this true. "Ths collector ring had to hsvi a band made and shrunk on ths hqb, owinff to the hub being split. This also had to be trued up after fitting on the shaft. "Ths bonnet was also filled with nsw screws and trued up. "The bearings filling on the housings were rebabbitted, bored and scraped to suit ths shaft "Tha shaft and bearings were returned to the plant on April 18. "In the evening of ths 19th the shaft was replaced in the spider, and on the 20th the jack was returned to the West Kootenay Power ft Light company- "I wish to extend to the West Kootenay Power A Light com pany, and thsir superintendent, Mr. Wllley, my appreciation for their kindness ln loaning the necessary appliances, without which it would have been impossible to remove the shaft from the rotor. Machine ResOlffned "After lowering the rotor and shaft ln place and bolting the coupling solid (which previously had been al lowed to rock on a paper lining) It was found the whole of the machine was out of alignment,* due to hammering, owing to the coupling not being allowed to ait face to face. "It waa then necessary to adjust, ths whole of the machine above the coupling. Owinff to the accuracy to which these adjustments had to be made It was an exceedingly slow Job and took up a considerable amount of time. "On the 24th' the commutator of the exciter waa trued up, as this had worn oval, and had developed several flats. "During these repairs No. 1 unit has been carrying the load. This unit has only a capacity of 750 k.w., but has handlsd a load of over 1100 k.w. at different periods. "It haa been necessary at times, owing to excessive load, to discontinue the street car service and cut off part of the load. "It la anticipated that the No. 2 unit will be tried out Tuesday, April 26, and after examination and drying, will be ready for load Thursday, April 28."
