Business Houses Report Water Rising in Basements TRAIL, B.C., May 29.— Waters in the Columbia river continued to rise last night and today, but showed first signs of receding because of the cooler weather during the last three days. During the 24 hours ending at 7 o'clock tonight the gauge on Trail bridge recorded another rise of 12 5-6 inches, but in comparison with the 24 hours ending at 7 o'clock last night, the water had risen Over 18 inches, showing a drop of about six inches in the daily rising record. PROPERTY IN DANGER Property along the waterfront was still threatened tonight and should a further rise continue several residents on both east and west sides of the Columbia river will be forced to vacate. The Verigin subdivision residents show much uneasiness for basements of several houses are flooded to within half an inch of the floor. Practically all large business stores' basements are flooded with water, but no serious damage haa resulted, as all valuable stocks are removed. The Columbia river water today was recorded aa 40.35 inches with a total rise of 32.35 Inchea since February with a decrease In drift flowing down the river today, old-timers are of the opinion that the river will now start to recede. CROP IN DANGER WINLAW. B.C.. May 38.—lt la feared here that the strawberry crop, which ls beginning to ripen. wiU be flooded out on the low levels. Water ln the slough is rising rapidly.

UNDER WATER Sandon Flume Damaged; Slocan City Water Supply Cut Off PASSMORE, B.C., May 30.—R. Ebbot- son's ranch ls partly under water. The Slocan river, though lt started to recede Monday, Is still menacing. Rising waters of the Columbia river have forced discontinuance of the Castlegar ferry service. District Engineer William Ramsay announced last night, following a report by J. Davidson, ferry operator, that the ferry will not run again until the flood condition is over. Late yesterday afternoon Mr. Davidson reported to Mr. Ramsay that the ferry approaches were completely submerged, and that the ferry was being landed on the road approaches. Reopening of the Ymir road has made it possible for uutoists to come to Nelson from points west of here by way of Fruitvale and Salmo. This means that Americans by auto coming to Nelson to see the Spokane-Nelson soccer game, and the Darr-Harlow boxing bout will be able to make the trip, though it will take a little more time than by the Castlegar route. Nelson ferry is not yet in difficulties, though if the water rises much more in the West Arm it is likely to have trouble. The approaches to the Nelson ferry are much longer than those at Castlegar, and the West Arm is not rising as rapidly as the Columbia.

The level of the lake yesterday afternoon was 18.8*8 feet. Weather-wise old-timers are predicting that the water level has reached its peak, and that with continued cool weather it will soon start to recede. They express a fear, however, that should the weather turn warm again, even higher levels might prevail. About 30 feet of the flume, running through thp main street of Sandon, on which the street is built, has been battered out by rocks 'supposed to have' been carried down by Carpenter creek from the Silversmith dump, District. Engtneer William Ramsay learned yesterday. The flume was rebuilt during the last low water period, early this spring. LOW TEMPERATURES Latest news from Sandon was to the effect that low temperatures, are relieving the situation tu a great extent. Crews of men working day aud night have the situation well ln hand. Motor car service on the Lardeau branch of the Canadian Pacific railway had to be cut out yesterday, due to three feet of woUr on the tracks. It ls probable Saturday's train service will also be cut out. It was thought last night that repairs had beea completed at washouts on the Sandon' branch of the Kaalo- Nakusp railway.

But Don '.'didn't ask fdrgl-enesB And Pay didn't. That first black day ahe woke tD, from the drugged slumber of «ftiotlonal exhaustion, dragged out to Its black end With no word from Don. And every day thnt followed was like unto lt. empty, Idle, _nd leaded with dtsconsolation. Tho nights were worse. The ring she returned by messenger. In an envelope that held nothing else, bar a protecting sheet of blank paper, was trie one sign that passed between them. Ottly Mr »aate basket knew* ot the notes Innumerable she wrote and did not Mud. But It was long berore her heart forgot to leap whan Vlrgle brought fn the morning mail and to skip a, heat when the telephone rang; it Was longer before she was able to go her ways about the elty untroubled by i the hope—or was it fear?—of meeting Don at every turn, at any. She was too proud to let any soul uspect, other than Fanny, who knew, and Beau, who must have known far better than she dreamed, that the hurt she nursed was mortal; too proud even by' stopping away from ler. Job for a day to give the presumptuous , any excuse for believing he had taken her flirtation with oting Mr. Oerould to heart. She was i her drawlng-bo;ird on time the rirgi morning after that fatal night, and held her head high all day. The agreement she and Don had made, to keep their engagement secret till Mrs. Oerould could be won over, confined acquaintance with it to limited number—outside her own home, only Lona knew, and Dora Walter—and this made it easier to hide her wound. But this was never ri'ully easy, for days ran into weeks ami still thc pain was unabated. Toward the end of the seventh week the last glimmer of . hope in her heart went out. On that day Pay went from the office to dine alone with Lona. Lander was in Chicago and Lona was leaning heavily on Pay for companionship. Their friendship had survived without sign of fracture the wreck of Fay's love affair. If LOna had any inkling of the cause of that calamity, she wae not permitted to divulge It; Pay had: from the first, after making a studiously unemotional announcement of the event, refused to discuss It. . \ We found out we were mistaken." she had firmly said: "and I don't want to talk about it, if you don't mind, dearest." And Lona had been wise enough to let the question Test- In the* limbo where, by tacit agreement, the tjuestion of the truth about Lander's attachment waited. Some day, perhaps. Pay would he moved to tell the whole story of her own accord; till then It were waste of breath to tease for her confidence. My gracious" Fay laughed, escaping from a hug that had welcomed her with special tenderness—"what's the idea, Lona? Have you fallen ln love with me or something?" I've always been in love with you." Lona replied with gentle seriousness; and well you know it" She drew Fay down to sit with her tn front of the wood fire. "I've something to tell you, sweet, and I wanted you to know how very deeply I feel for you." The slight body stiffened within the girdle of her arm. But Pay said nothing. "Dora was in a little while ago," Lona pursued with natural hesitation. "You know, this Is one of her days to ■*"• Doug hla dancing lesson. She'd just come from him, and he'd told her—some th Inf. You remember how Don's engagement to Letty Delavan was never officially broken?—I mean, never given to the papere as a public announcement. Well, it seems Mrs. Oerould has got her own way at last; she's managed to bring them together again and persuaded them te name a date for their wedding. It's to be very soon. Doug Bays, ao soon as they can make the necessary arrangements." OON WIi l.tfTTY VI iiomi; One fine nlt-ht of the next autumn got away to a poor atart when Paul Manqulst Piped up "Four hearts'!" in support of the | bid which Audrey Ralne had made over an original no- trump calj hy Letty; and Letty, blinded by the blond simper of the queen in her hand claimed toe* much for virtue but twice-guarded, valiantly retorted: "Four without!" Audrey cried "Double!" to that, and tried not to look bucked when the Ment prayer which Letty winged to her' husband won no other answer than a "Pasa!" reiterated. Manqulst had no more to say for hlmsefr; and Letty, having • briefly- weighed the chances of - a bluff redouble, told a black-lie with lips whose sweetness was as false: "I am content." The humble heart which Audrey led drew a big red brute of an ace from Manqulst as soon aa Don had spread his heartless dummy; and because Audrey looked to bridge for a good bit of her Income, and was holding eight hearts to the klng-ten-ace, her gurgle of s pleased child hailed this honorable discharge qf her partner's third-round pledge. Letty, on her part, rendered tribute to the ace with a "Damn!" together with one of her queen's sorry retainers and, when Manqulst faithfully led back the deuce, putting tbe royal Jade at the mercy of her contort, delayed. playing out the one bodyguard remaining while she oouned the grinning calamity which was her dummy. "You are a dirty dog, you know, Joel," she commented in accents of envenomed honey. "If you'd an ounce of decency, you'd have taken me out ln spades." "Holding five to the nine-spot?" Don inquired ln civil wonder. "And after you'd plunged to four on a fourth-hand no-trumper without a word of encouragement from me? Oh. no. my dear Tish! It'll be an expensive lesson, but you really must learn to listen to a dumb partner." I did," Letty snapped, "once." That fair frail queen went* meekly to the custody of her king; and the vindictive young wife added: "Once too often. Less than a year ago, at that. And now look at me!" But that's so easy," Don gallantly argued. "And even if lt wasn't it would be a glad change from listening to your bidding." Oh. shut up!" The Delavan temper got' the bit between lt* teeth. "I know, of course, you're trying your damnedest to ruin my play of this hand- " Passionate little lily painter that I be!" For sheer spite, Just as you let me down during the auction. If you'd been half as busy with your tongue then * * * Oh. but you are a beast!" "A .silent wife is a pearl of great price." Don reflected aloud; "but a silent bridge partner is cast before swine." He was promptly ashamed of himself, grateful for Manqulst's shout, which accepted the conceit as sheer fun, and still more to be made aware of a solicitous manservant. "Well. Rudge; something- ?" "You're wanted on the telephone, air." "Oh? Then I shall have to ask the courtesy of the table • * *" "If you know what that ls."

TRAIL CAMELS TO CLASH ROSSLAND " i Golden City Champions Accept Challenge Flung by Trail TTJAIL, B.C., May 29.—A vision of Hoehelaga and of Mount Royal, nearly 400 years ago, tha gorgeous pageantry of forest, mountain and stream decked ln summer glory, thousands of red- men and women ln furs and skins in dignified though primitive ceremonies and customs ln festive mood wtth tbe "White Gods." and the aame■ scenes ln dead winter's terrible cold and snow with red-man's treachery, with disease and death rampant—those were pictures presented by Rev. N D.B. Larmonth to St. Andrew's churchmen Sunday night ln hla third talk on Canadian history. Tracing the history of Canada with famous man as convenient anchors for the masses of fact, Mr. Larmonth last night described the second and third voyages of Jacques Cartler, the real discoverer of Canada. GIFTS OF rillLDRKN He told of Cartler's arrival, under commission of the king of France, at Stadacona on the St. Lawrence, ln September. 1535. Of the. feast to SOO Indians on the white men's ships; of gifts ln friendship by the Indians of children to the white men; and of the drama of three red devils and the strategy of the Indians ln striving to prevent Cartler visiting the richer country of Hoehelaga. He told how, when Cartler reached Hoehelaga with 33 men, he waa received by 1000 Indians, whose chief aged and diseased waa brought, seated great akin, borne along by 10 lesser chiefs to them where they sat on guest skins, seated in the square of the great Indian village of 50 huge community huts, to be cured of his diseases. LEARNS TOBACCO CULTURE Cartler, said Mr. Larmonth, learned that the Indiana had community of property, were only skins, had beliefs ln a dlety and curious tribal customs. and also the Indians' art ot growing, curing and smoking tobacco. HARDSHIPS AND DANGER He learned the Indians feared the advent of the white men, and learned too, all the terrible hardships of winter residence ln that country, unprepared for it with his men sick with scurvy, 39 dead, and the Indians waiting outside the palisades ready to attack. In tbe spring of 1536, Cartler, after stealthy preparations under imminent fear of an Indian uprising, sailed for France again, taking three Indiana, made prisoner at a friendly feast of departure. CARTIER'S THIRD • VOVAOE Cartler made his third voyage as master pilot ln the expedition of discovery and settlement authoriaed and financed by the king of France, but Under the nominal leadership of Jean Francis de le Roque, Sleur de Rsbevel. He sailed with five ships manned by liberated convicts, and reached Stadacona again, without Ms master, Ro- bevel. He waa given a great welcome by the Indians, constructed a fort, made a survey of the country of Lachine raplde, and vlalted Cape Rouge and returned to Prance, meeting Ro- bevel and his party of colonlsta at St. Johns, Newfoundland, en route. Mr. Larmonth concluded with a sketch of Robevel's ill-starred efforts to found a colony on the mainland. WINliEGWARS ON DRUG ADDICTS CRESTON, B. C, May 39th, 1928 — Creston permanent location on the route of ail north and south auto traffic la assured. The news waa contained ln a wire reoelved thts afternoon by Prank Putnam, liberal candidate ln the Creaton constituency, from Hon. W. H. Sutherland, minister ot public works, and which reads: "Reference your latter twenty-sixth have ordered work to proceed on the Port HUl-Creston highway via abandoned railway grade." For the paat year particularly a persistent effort haa been made by Creaton board of trade to have the link ln the international north and south highway built from Port Hill, Idaho, to Creston, where connection Is made with the east and west trans provincial highway. BETTER TRADE The abandoned roadbed of the old Great Northern railway will be used and will provide a water grade for the whole seven miles. The new highway link will mean a saving of four mllea and provide a very much better grade as well as being shorter and very much better than the circuitous route now travelled. All the necessary surveys were made laat fall and men will be at work at the south end of the highway on Thursday morning. If fqU crews and equipment are put to work the new highway will open for traffic ln lesa than two months. The estimated coat of the work is less thsn 110.000.

He had written to the department about lt, he said. In a letter from the collector of natlonal revenue, It was stated that thla tax was Imposed on the authority of the special War Revenue act and the department had ruled that any person, firm, municipality or corporation removing sand, gravel or crushed rock for lta own use, was a producer, and waa required to operate under a sales tax license. The license would count from January 1, 1924 the tax being computed on the current market during that period.

The Story of an Unusual Gift from two girls to ttheir mother Margaret and Marion, (laughters of Mr. and Mra. James K. Falconer, Vancouver, wished to give their mother something as a Mothers' Day remembrance, and so they presented her with a long-distance telephone call to her own mother in Halifax, Nova Scotia! On the night of May 12 the conversation took place, spanning the continent from the Pacific to thc Atlantic. Not only did Mrs. Falconer hear the voice of her own mother for the first time in six years, but Margaret and Marion, who had sponsored the call, also talked to their grandmother in Halifax. The unusual gift served to make Mothers' Day an event of moment for the representatives of all three generations, and the long-distance telephone service again was thc means of bringing happiness to human hearts.

The nutritive value of vegetables Is Influenced by tha war In which they are cooked, and tht first rule for the housewife to follow la "Don't use too much water ln cooking any vegetable." For. lt la plain to anyone that some elements tn foods which are cooked in water are bound to ba dlwlved out (I always save such water for soups, ao that I get these dissolved elements anyway). Regarding the materials ol which cooking utensils are made, I have found that aluminum, enamalwarr or iron are equally good. But there ls a choice ln the type ot utensil and in tho method of cooking. Shall we cook ln a steamer, tn a pressure cooker or ip a moderate amount of water br the boiling process? Boiling water wastes the minerals found ln beet greens and In spinach. Phosphorus—another valuable mineral found In leafy vegetables and ln turnips and onlona—la lost by water cooking, also, hut steaming saves a great quantity of lt. Luckily, however, all meats are rich .in phosphorus, so we who are meet eaten are getting about all we require of thla element. Leafy vegetables alao contain much iron, an element badly needed in our system to make red corpuscles, and luckily our drinking water, especially when It has been in contact with iron pipes) contains much Iron also, as do egg yolks, dried beans and. lentils, red meats, wholewheat, liver, etcetera.

"I Uke food and I'd Just like to eat more today, but If I do I'll be "sunk" until 3 o'clock, which means that half the afternoon Is fone. I eat a light lunch because lunch time Is really Just a short pause tn my day's work." The Syracuse department of health makes these significant remarks: "For those whose work is monotonous, luncheon ls likely to be an adventure, with a resulting overemphasis on food. To the person with an exciting Job, the midday meal ls merely an Inter- we cannot afford one of these we can use our old friend, the double boiler, with better results than If we covered our vegetables with water and boiled them in the old fashioned way. Yet, If you wish to cook carrots, spinach and peas easily, simply put them ln a very small amount of boiling water and cook them ln as short a period as possible. Shortening the cooking period improves flavor as well as conserves the minerals.

Normal folks need dally two vegetables ln addl-Ton to potatoes, one helping of meat, fish, or poultry if at business, or perhaps two heplings if working hard physically, from a pint, to a quart of milk, not more than two cupe of tea or coffee, with a moderate amount of fats, sweets, or other appetizing foods."' Their suggestion Is that as the usual breakfast is orange or grapefruit, cereals with milk, and coffee, and the usual dinner at evening ls meet, two vegetables, and desert, that the luncheon should In general be one glass of milk, a raw or green vegetable whole wheat bread, and a desert made with egg. Then It should be eaten ln pleasant restful surroundings. They had ln mind particularly the business woman, but lt would apply almost aa well for the ordinary business man. For men and women, doing hard physical work, a Uttle more substantial lunch should be eaten, but for brain workers the above suggestions fie excellent. • One of the hard things far Parents who are endeavoring to reduce their weight or at., least keep It within .proper limits, ts trying.

The outcome of the game was In Itself the biggest surprise experienced by the Cadet team and It wu played through Intermittent showers of rain and hail and occulonal sunshine. It wu featured by quarrels galore over Umpire Paul Hun* den's decisions. Finally, when the Senators forged ahead ln the last Inning and held the Cadets scoreless in their final turn, the Cadets claimed the right of another Inning, although the league rules hold that five Innings constitute a game. Early ln tbe game it looked like the Senators were ln for a bad trimming, for the Cadets were holding the new team down and were steadily piling up runs. It tu only In the final Inning that the Senators, scoring five runs, overtook the lead of the Cadets. With the Cadets having lut bats, it looked like "good night" to the Sena- tore, but the first three batters never got to first base. The ball beat the flnt one up to the base and the aecond waa struck out. The third met the same fate u the first. The acore by Innings wu: Senators 0 4 3 0 5—13 Cadets 1 8 3 3 0-11 The teams were: Cadeta—R. Horswlll, p: O. Campion, c; Stewart, Bell, Martin, Burns, Cher- rlngton and Klrby. Senators—L.
