Tokio, Dec. 17.���Minister of Labor Lemieux was the guest of honor at a farewell banquet attended by 300 lending citizens and officers, including foreign minister Hayashi and British Ambassador Sir Claude Macdonald, last night. The negotiations with the Japanese government have been concluded without a formal agreement or exchange of memoranda, but with an understanding similar to tha: between Japan and the United Sta.es. The newspapers are full of rumors about the latter. Some of the pap rs state that regulations will be enforced restricting the emigration from Japan of so-called student laborers.

LGSI SIX MILLIONS IN GAME OF EUCHRE ROLLEH SKATING RINK LAURIEB IN FAVOR OF PROPOSITION IS DROPPED FRASER IMPROVEMENT Career of Romantic Miner Ended by Death---Fine Ait Collector. A proposition whi .. ' been under consim ral on ti < Bti iiab a n U 1 skating rink In tbe old Assembly hall has now, to all intents and purposes been dropped for this season at least. The local parties who were Interested in the deal have come to the conclusion that the building is hardly large enough to appeal to the agile roller skaters, as the floor is only titi by -I", and gyrations would therefore have to be somewhat limited. P. H. Frlelander, of Seattle, who ha ' offered to finance the undertaking, is willing to put his purse at the disixisul of the local men as soon as a suitable location is available. The old can factory, on Front streei.. which had been proposed as a desirable site, is considered too cold for the purpose, and heavy expense would be entailed in order to put it into shape, as an entirely new floor and fixtures would be nee Bsary, A letter has beesen received by J. \\V. MacDonald, president of the New Westminster Liberal association, from Sir Wilfrid Tanner, acknowledging receipt of .1 communication referring to the result oi the recent Liberal con- venuon, ana moating Ms desire to help In evi ry way possible the work of the local Liberal association. In liis letter the Premier refers to th ��� proposed river improvement work, de- claring that this will receive his earnest consideration at an early date, and that he is heartily ln sympathy with any effort being made to better the Fraser river channel, realizing, as he does, the great benefits which suc'n an undertaking would bring to the city of New Westminster. Sir Wilfrid also had a few words to say with respect to the Asiatic influx in n. C, and while admitting that the solution of the problem Is hampered with many difficulties, he heartily endorses tbe action taken by the B. C. Liberals in the matter, and reiterates his Intention of giving the subject his closest attention. London, Dec, 17.���George McCul- loch, who for many years was associated with the development ol mining industries in Australia, died here toda... iie was the possessor ot one of the finest aft coJlectons in tb ��� world. His career was a romantic one, beginning as a prospector in Australia. He w.as early identified with the development of Broken Hill mine and for their first inception. On one occasion he lost at euchre his share in a mine, which six years later was worth $C.250,000. The notorious Billy Sheaves, who has given the police as much trouble as any other two men in this part, is again on the rampage, and early this morning distinguished himself by- chasing Robert Qooding across the Fraser River bridge, from the Surrey- hotel to the G. X. R. station, threatening all the time to Inflict personal injury on his person witli a pick handle, which he was wielding. Gooding managed to keep a safe.- distance ahead of Sheaves, and shortly after appealed to the city police for protection, begging to be locked up for the night, as he fenrea that his enemy would assault hlm if he met him again during the night- He waa giv- en 1 rotection as requeste I. si, aves, aft ir liis futile effoi I at qualifying for a lengthy sentence, return, d to the Surrey hotel, where he continued drinking until a late hour. A' last ai "iints, lie was still wielding 'his pick handle and threatening every person who approached him. He is fast becoming a terror on the othtr side of the river, and man 1 the settlers are afraid to venture out at night, on account of threats made by this individual. About two months ago Sheaves attacked a fisherman named Andrews at Henry Lewis' residence, and after assaulting him in a most brutal manner, left the house, to return armed with a revolver a short time later, witli the intention of "finishing" his victim. The case was brought to the attention of the Provincial police, and a summons was served on Sheaves, but he left his haunts for a few dayg and was never brought up ���for sentence. He has lu-en back In Surrey for some time, and sever..I complaints have been received by the police concerning his actions, but up to date he has not been apprehended, although one of the Provincial police officers is said to have gone across for the purpose of arresting- him two days ago. A Costly Drink. Calgary, Dec. 17.���During the he.at of the election campaign one of the candidates for aldermanic 'nonors, in vehemently protesting his temp.r- ance principles, offered $1,000 to the General hospital if any person could prove that he had bought a glass of liquor in Calgary.

Fisher yesterday granted a record of 1000 inches 'of water from Rainy cre.-k to a syndicate, repre-ented by Captain H. A, Mellon, of Vancouver, which will use the water In the operation of a large pulp mill on Howe sound. Greeley Kolts, an employee of the company, swore tli it the normal Mow of the river was about 5,000 Inches, and that during the month of November the flow was 12,000 Inches. He testified that the flow was at no time less than 1,000 inches. The company served notice that an application for 2.00,) extra inches would be posted at an early date, and if granted, would be used 1 to increase the mill capacity.

The owners of RIVER VIEW PARK, Sapperton, have decided to sell the whole of this beautiful park in block, at fully 50 per cent, under the present market value and to give those of limited means, the same chance as the millionaire, we will divide the block into parcels of say 4, 8, or 16 lots, at the same reduction. The only apology we haye to make, for selling at such tremendous reductions is the fact that we need money. This property has o;Jy to be seen to be appreciated. The outlook is superb. There is not a nicer residential property in the Royal (Sty���No���Not One. Some of the lots are beautifully treed, with a young growth of golden spruce. The balance of the park is cleared and much of it stumped, and all of the property slopes gently towards the grand old Fraser River and is only a block from the Columbia Street car line. To the north, east, and south, the Atlas, the Cascades, ancl the mighty Olympic mountains, tower in all their rugged grandeur. Sapperton is the manufacturing centre of Westminster and real estate is more active there than in any other part of the city. Although only here a few days, many lots have already sold.

Last year a professor ln one of the Tails universities resolved to study the habits of lobsters In bis laboratory. As they live in salt water, tbe first rare of tin- profeeessor was, of course, to pro- run- a .supply of tbis iiii-iliuin. The common mortal will probably consider it a most simple task���to provide a few barrels of sea water, Tbis, however, Is in it so ln France. Sea water eon- tie.us salt, and the production of salt Is a source Of revenue. This made lt necessary for the professor to first ob- tain the permission of tbe minister of finance before be could travel and transport the water. Winn bis application reached the ministry, a subordinate official was directed to Inquire into tbe standing of the petitioner. Tbis involved considerable correspondence, which passed through numerous channels and finally reached tbe chief of the department, who now initiated another Investigation In order to ascertain why a Parisian professor should be so anxious to lower the level Of tbe Atlantic ocean. After several weeks the Inspector made favorable report.

R DAVIDSON. Manager Some Gold Handled That Sell For $50. Handles of Silver and of Ivory. If a man were content to shave himself with a razor having a bard rubber handle, as Indeed most men are, he could buy one with a blade of very excellent quality for a dollar, but there are razors far more expensive than this. ThUE there are sold razors with bandies of IS carat gold and of plaiu smooth finish that briug $50 each. A pair of such razors in a plain silver box eau be bought for a hundred dollars. P.ut .$50 Is not the limit of what one may pay for a gold handled razor. If tbe handle were elaborately chased Its cost might mount up to twice that, or $200 fur a pair. '1 nere are also sold, among those more expensive, silver handled razors which range iu price from $0.50 to $30 each, $6.60 being tbe price for one with a plain silver handle, while those more costly have their handles more or less elaborately chased or carved. A man who did not altogether like a bard rubber handled razor might find his fancy suited with one having a handle of Ivory, aud au Ivory handled razor need not necessarily be expensive. A razor with a plain ivory handle can be bought for $2. Of course any carving would ndd to the cost. Costly razors are usually sold for gifts.���New York Sun. The Age of Marriage. The age of legal capacity to marry ln England Is much lower than in Italy. The English law has adopted iu this respect a law of Roman nnd even Athenian origin, b.v which the ages of fourteen and twelve were fixed as the marriageable ages of males and females, respectively. In Italy the age ls fixed by the civil code at eighteen and fifteen. Formerly the age of spous- als in England was as low as seven for both sexes, but such marriage was not considered perfect, for the parties might disagree to lt when they arrived at the mature age of twelve or fourteen.

Throughout the greater part of the ocean the bottom is the dwelling place of a Dumber of creatures whose busi- I iiei-s it is to consume the bodies of the members of the surface fauna which after death sink to the bottom. In the Black sea. however, says the l-'ield, ow- j lng to special geological events, such scavengers are totally wanting over I the greater pari "f thi' bottom, so that i the carcasses .ef the creatures which . fall from above are left to deeomiwise, i which they s| dily do nt the com- paratively high temperature of the wn ter.

Jn Mexico all rehicles, lie they band cart, automobile or anything between, must carry a light at night. This rule or law is rigidly enforced. Even the drivers of the poor little burro or mule carts, ou their two wheels, must carry a light. So, rather than buy lanterns, wbi.-h cost money, they take a dip candle, and wrapping It in a hit of newspaper to shield It from the wind carry it in their left baud ns tbey drive nlong homeward from work after evening has fallen.

Apropos 'if something Whistler once told a cockfight story so vividly that only ei man with a sailor instinct could tell it as well, mimic it so keenly and enjoy it so thoroughly, it was a story ot a strange species ot the American cock, pictured to the smallest detail so beautifully that one forgot that it wan a storj. Some American sailors wen- at a cockfight in a seaport town in England when roe of them remarked to the owner of the champion: "We have got an American cock on hoard tbat can whip any bird here." "Go fetch 'im on," said the champion, "Chuck 'im in and see. if 'e Ucks one bird we 'ave plenty more to throw ln that etui lick hany blawsted Humeri inn bird you can fetch "ere." "All right We'll bring one," said the sailors. When they got aboard they rigged up an American eagle After their own manner, they painted, trim Died, spliced and reefed fore and aft. transforming the eacie to a cock. When ready they went ashore to pit their new American gamecock against all England. At tbe pit tbe sailors chucked in their cork, which looked around for other surprises as he backed Close to the wall. "Now. bring on your birds!" yelled the sailors. A strutting cock was thrown into tbe pit aud was another surprise to the poor dismantled eagle. He hacked up closer and closer to the wall, wondering what would happen next. The cock walked three times majestically around the circle, cuffing nt his strange opponent, the eagle pitiably abashed and bedrahbled. crouching lower and lower and looking around and above him for an explanation of what lt all meant, while the crowd were yelling madly for the English Bghter. The eagle made himself smaller and smaller, hut at last, finding that he could get back no further and thinking that something was expected of bim, and, as the cock dashed at him again, stretched out his ioiig cljJWS and took his opponent by the neck. Here Whistler ended with nn Imitation by motions of what the eagle did. He stretched out his arm, shaped his hand like a claw, which by this time looked like a real one, drew it to his month and with one bite pulled off the bend as he thought an eagle might do it. Then he looked blandly about the room, as the eagle tiad done, at the astonished crowd nnd said, "Now bring on your other birds."���Otto Bacher In Century. XMAS PRESENTS!

After much anxious ���thought and consultation with Lord Queensberry au Innocent glove light was arranged in the Buckingham palace stables, to take place quietly half an hour before the shah was to receive Lord Shaftesbury and the archbisi ns and bishops with a memorial asking him to protect the interests of the Christians In Persia. But the shah slept late. The prizefighters overlapped the prelates. A footman made a mistake in opening the door. Archbishops and bishops following the shah In a moment fonnd themselves more or less in a ring round lhe two prizefighters. Tlie bishops hustled back to ihe reception room, the fight was stopped, the shah was angry and disappointed, and Lord Shaftesbury was heard shouting: "A prizefight in the garden of the queen's palace forsooth! I will denounce you all over the kingdom!" Mutual explanations followed, the matter was set right, we sent special messages to the reporters to keep it out of tbe press, and I was later on privileged t'> explain it all tei the queen, vrho took the matter much more calmly ihan her lord chamberlain. Once back, however, in-iei'.. Buckingham palace, we nil smoothed our ruffled feathers and listened to a most gloomy oration fr nn Lord Shaftesbury. Thc shah, angry at the Interruption of his prizefight, turned round to Sii Henry Bawlinson and growled In Per sian: "Hang the Christians In Persia! Tell them they're all right:" Rawlin- son translated that iuto a long, eloquent and beautiful reply to the deputation, while doubtless the disappointed boxers were having a consolation scrap In the stables.

He took only one whiff and followed Parker. lie furnished a pretext, and you could see by the sound of his voice that be didn't think much of the pretext and was vexed with Parker for getting in ahead with a fictitious ailing client.
