Recognising that it would be one of the a.-st matches in the Vancouver district league this season, both teams had doii" their best to put representative men in the field, and the Thistles had gone to the exetnt of importing Mitchell and Hewitt from Vancouver i-dand to strengthen the team, Wilson played half in place of McLean, and as was anticipated th.- Rovers had to bring Rico for Shawcross, whose leg made him unlit The game was played in a snow-storm, and on a hard ground, which however had been carefu rolled, and resit] ed in a win for the visitors by two uouls to one after a very stiff game.

The annual convention of the labor party, which represents millions of union workmen, meets soon and its program of reforms will make England's plutocrats and comfortable classes groan. England's union workmen, through their convention, will represent the following platform: "Taxation should he in proportion to ability to pay, No taxation ..-luoiilo] be imposed which encroached on an individual's means that are necessary to satisfy his physical and pri mary needs. Taxation should aim al securing for communal benefii all unearned Incremenl of wealth, therefore taxation should be levied on unear i incomes and should aim deliberately at preventing the retention of great fortunes In private hands." Leaders of the labor convention will insist upon a drastic reform of the present system of national taxation In order ;.i assure that taxes be derived from those best able to pay them, and wlv ecelve most benefit and protection from the state. The convention will unanimously express its determinable to resist all proposal- to Increase the taxation of the masses.

A. Smith Furniture company, and it was only by their heroic efforts that they managed to confine the fire to the basement and the first floor. Nobody seems to know how the fire started, but it is presumed thai it was caused by spon- taneous combustion or a couple of electric wires crossing and the sparks therefrom setting the excelsios and burlap which covered the furniture ablaze, No definite statement could be obtained as to the amount of damage done to the building and stock, but : is conceded to have been in the vicinity of SlOu.OOO, which is appreciably covered by Insurance.

Jan. 3.���General Swayne, governor of Rrltish Honduras, address- ed the Canadian Club at luncheon yesterday on the Hindu problem. He explained that, being desirous of securing labor tor the development of Hon- duran agriculture, he went out there to Induce I hem to emigrate. On arrival there, however, he found work started in the mills and that n-arly all were employed, while those without work were looked after by wealthy Hindus and Mohammedans who feared forcible deportation to Honduras. This, be declared, was not the intention. He believed the men employed in the mills of British Columbia to be* suited tor that class of work, but others came in the wake of these workmen, and were poor material. "Thai poor material we do not want to have In the country," said General Swayne In conclusion. "Whether yon want the others is a subject which I do not now discuss." TWO. THE DAILY NEWS.

Encouraged by this, the visitors made desperate efforts to increase their lead, hut every time the defence men sent the ball careering back to the Thistle halt McGowau had rough luck in not scoring before the interval, hut although Bruce. Turnbull and Hayes, the last of whom played a great game, tested the Scotsmen's defence they failed to draw level. Each Score Once. Crossing over, the Westminster .hoys had much the best of the early exchanges, and gained a couple of cor- ners, neither of which however were made much use of. owing to the manner in which the Vancouver men bunched the goal. In a melee the ball hit. the left upright of the Thistles' goal and rebounded back. Other corners produced nothing, and the Scotsmen took up the attack, scoring again from Mitchell before they had been down many minutes. Saul got laid out, and then In the last few minutes Westminster scored, from a shot by Bruce, and though making heroic efforts to equalize the Thistles left the field victors by two goals to one. For the home team Hayes was the lies. 0�� the forwards, and all the defence men played a good game. Sawyer was again prominent. Saul suffered from a bad kick, .but was steady and reliable every time. Watson acquitted himself well in the net.

A most curious net of electricity 1* the adoption of lifting magnets In ma- rhlae shop and mill practice. An electro magnet In its simplest form consists of a piece of soft lion wound witb a large number of turns of Insulated copper wire. When 1111 electric current passes through tbe windings of wire the electric forces are converted luto maguetlo forces and tbe coll of wir* and core of soft Iron assume all the characteristics of a common steel magnet Tbe operation of lifting mngnctR Is ijuito simple. The magnet is attached to the crane hook, and the ends of tbe wire forming the eoll are connected directly with the dynamo. The crane Is then swung so that the magnet la suspended directly 07er the metal to be removed. The magnet is then low ered until it comes In contact with the object, the current is turned on. tbo hoist is raised and the mnss of metal to be moved clings to the magnet When the load reaches tbe desired point It may be dropped without first lowering the magnet or it may be lowered, the current shut off and the material deposited gentry. The crane op Orator ueeds UO help to load or unload, aud the work can be done In halt the time with a saving of frutu thre�� to four men.���New \\r-tk Uemld.

Smitfc sad he, sitting behind a curtain, di�� tated It to Oliver Cowdcry, who, Beat ���A out of sijfht of the reader, wrote ttw�� matter as It was given him. Smith pretended that the book was discovered to him by revelation and dug op from the side of a hill not far from Palmyra, In the county of Ontario, N'. T. The claim was made by Smith that tbe writing on the elates was engraved In "reformed Egyptian," which he was unable to read until magic spectacles which he called his Trim and Thuai mlm, were given to him, enabling him both to read aud, translate into English. Tbe spectacles and the metal plates have disappeared, and tbe story of the dictation makes tolerably clear the manner in which the "Book at Mormon" bad Its origin. An Impresario's Advlc*.

To this Adams responded, " 'Anti? ow,' 'Orfeo,' 'Ipblgenla,' 'Sapho,' 'i> reste,' etc." Muretzek suavely said: "That is mag flJIleeiit. But do me a favor as an old and experienced friend.

The Wees buzzed about the intruder, but all they could do vi.-is to leave their sting in his clay coat At latU they swarmed sway in despair, and the clever monkey helped himself to the honeycomb.

Kerr Was Summoned El The following paragraph appeared in The Columbian of Wednesday evening, December :30th: "POLICE COURT CASES.���W. J. Kerr was summonsed to the police court this morning for doing an insurance business without a license. Magistrate Corbould has adjourned the case until January 6th." Had the reporter who caused this news item to appear, been more explicit in his representation to the readers of The Columbian, he would, no doubt, have added that Mr. Kerr was summoned because he refused to pay a license covering an insurance company for which the license had already been provided for through another agent. In other words, the Corporation of the City ot New Westminster are asking and expect to be paid a license for an insurance company represented by Mr. Kerr, which company is also represented by another real estate agent in the city. The company has paid the license giving them the privilege to do business in the City of New Westminster through an agent or agents. Although the license was not paid at the instigation ot Mr Ken' but on the part of the other insurance agent representing this same company, they being instructed to take care of this matter on behalf of the company this news item had inferred to the Dublic that Mr. Kerr has committed a misdemeanour and violated the by-Jaw of the city by not paying the license already provided for, and has done Mr. Kerr an injustice. He is summonsed only after refusing to pay what has been already paid and provided for. W. J. KERR, LIMITED. ��� ' PAG�� BIGHT. THE DAILY NEWS.
