For Captain Pevle is a friend of the clerk of the weatlo" and so all was sunshine and smlio?, ��� avlng of flags, tramp of ordered 'net and general gaiety. Yesterday was Mav Day. The May Queen held ne rayal rourt, her subjects In thousand.-; g'eet- ed her passage to the corou.ition 6cene. State and city did hei homage in the jersons 6f Judge Howay und Mavor Lee. "Never," said an olu time resident, "have I seen a May Da/ Itbe this."

Miss Welsh has dark hair, Miss Staton's is light, and the pair formed a most pleasing contrast. Like the maids of honor they were tl essed simply in white, and presented a chaining e.\\ample of the girlhood of the fairest city of Biitish Columbia. The retiring queen then delivered her pai ting address to her subjects in these words: "My Loyal Subjects: For the last time I have the houor of addressing you as such, and in so doing, I desire to express my thanks to you, one and all, for the many kindnesses shown me during the year that ls now almost past. "I shall, in the future, recall many- pleasant memories of events during my reign; many are personal, some aie of a public character, for even a \\oung girl cannot fall to notice the many improvements constantly taking j lace in tiiis city; and as your May Queen, I ain specially pleased to notice that the citizens who so honored me are sup; o: ting the advancement of the Ro;al City ln every pos slide manner.

At the conclusion of her speech she turned to her successor and placed u;on her head a chai let of flowers.

We thank the noMe men who have e'en now excelled all previous occasions in theli eTorts to make the day 'the brightest, happiest day of all the glad New Vear.' We greet especially so many of our subjects from rolnts far up the Fraser valley, and bid them make merry in our sacttal, where tbey are ever welcome visitors.

The chief Incident of the day thus ���\\imlly consummated, twenty sweet little maids proceeded to evec.ute a dance with garlands, and at Its conclusion amid applause ; lunged Into the mazes of the old May Day dance rovnd the pole. As they tripped around, ribbon ln hand, t'ie pole was plaited ln the good old way. Presentation of Medals. Then came the march past of the Boys' Brigade, Boy Scouts and Girl Guides, truly a most Imposing spectacle, and the bodies were then drawn up In order for the presentation of medals to members of the first organization. The list ia as follows, Queen Annie, shyly regal, making the presentation and each red coated boy saluting smartly as he received hls reward. Color Sergeant Gamon, for attendance and smartness on parade, presented by J. J. Cambridge. Bugler Linn, for smartness on parade, presented by J. J. Johnston. Sergeant G. O'Connor, for best section commander, pieflented by W. C. Chamberlin. Corporal McCallum, best drilled Startled Horse Runs Away in Exhibition Grounds���Knocks Over Lady and Children. Happily the May Day celebrations passed off with little hitch, but It was b.v the narrowest margin that a most serious accident was averted. Soon after the children had dlspeised for the presentation of candies and oranges, and as Ihe decorated automobiles were returning to Columbia stret. one of the cirs by blowing its hooter startled a borse whicli waB drawing a buggy in which were two young men named N, Newman aud D. Aimitage. The hoise dashed off at top speed, throwing the occupants of the buggy to the ground and caieerlng away down towards the entrance gate. About 50 yards from this point a lady was walking with hsr two little girls and Into them the excited anima' dashed, knocking thein down, but marcellouB to relate not injurying any of thein beyond the shock and a hrulse on one of the lillie children. The buggy was overt i- ned at tho scene of this marvellous escape, and the horse having evidently jumped clean over them, continued its course until cant.ured at the entrance by the mounted scouts. AT MAY DAY DANCE GRAND JURY MADE ITS PRESENTATION Children and Grown Ups Revel In Mazes of Pleasant Dance. OBSERVE MOTHER'S DAY ON SUNDAY Old Custom Revived���Carnations and Slmr.el Cake���Come3 from Philadelphia. Sunday is Mothere' Day. On this 'ay everyone is expected to honor ihe memory of bis mother, whether dead or living, by the wearing of a Ho .ver. For a dead mother a white carnation is worn aud tor a living one a pink or colored carnation. Flower* a��e alto put on the slaves ot mother* -asbo '.iave gone to ths Great Beyond. The origin of Mothers' Day Is not very c'.ear. According to one account the keeping of this dhy is an old English custom. In that countiy, however, lt was observed on iMid Lent Sunday and Its special feature was the "simnel" cake, a delicious delicacy for wliich ti.e southwest of England is famous. According to the other story, Miss Anna Jarvis, of Philadelphia, desired to commemorate the anniversary of her mother's death and began the custom of wearing a flower. She wrote to the papers at the same time and very soon the custom was adopted throughout the United States. Mlss Jarvis suggested the white carnation as the most suitable flower to ^e worn, because, as she said, "Its whiteness Btands for purity; its form beauty; its fragrance, love: its wide field of growth, charity; its lasting ouallties, faithfulness; all a true mother's attributes." Whatever its origin, this touching observance is honoied very widely in the United States and Canada. Not much attention has been paid to lt in Westminster ln the past, but there are signs that in tbe future many people will be seen wearing the carnation on the second Sunday ln May In honor of their mothers. May Queen and Her Court Attend��� Opens Ball with the Master of Ceremonies. Eight o'clock came round very swiftly and with it the gieat ba.J room in the exhibitions building filled with crowds of children and grown ups ready to receive the May Queen. Soon she entered with ber court and the giand march toon place. Surely there was never a happier man than the gallant master of ceremonies as with Her Majesty, a plctuie of girlish grace', leaning on his arm, he led oft the march. A.nd after that what fun there was. There were treai big men dancing with pretty little girls, theie were girls of all ages dancing together, and there were little bojs ln uniform chasing each other around the pillars when they were not doing the same outside the circle. Around sat hundreds of parents and still more chil- dien watching the animated scene. The band played very nicely, and jjst when one was getting down Into the swing of the lance It had a habit of stopping, just eo tuat everyone could clap and wait anxiously until it started again, and then think how good It was to rlay a little longer. So at least, the Daily News and a little girl ieasoued It out. It was' much nicer to dance than to look on, because there were so many people crowding around the room, although the ball commutes had provided seats for over half a thousand. From a dais railed at one en.I of tbe beautifully decorated hall the May- Queen, and her maids of honor surveyed the srer.e, that is when they were not. dancing. And that was only between |he various .ItemSj Busy msn were the various members of the committee; :JIr, J. J. Johnston, the ex-j ran Higher Salaries for Provincial Police Recommended���Gaol Overcrowded ���Hospital Too Small. Having disposed of the cases brought befoie them, the grand jury yesterday made an investigation into various conditions and yesterday morning made tbeir piesentment to the presiding judge. In this ihey noticed the large calendar of indict ments, 21 in a.l, submitted to them and regretted that '-rime iu the province was on tne increase, partly due they though; to the increase in popu Iation and the mi..ed nationality ol tbe immigrants. The piovlncial police force they consldeied was hampered by the sraallness of Its numDers, but tliey exp:e3sed their appreciation of its wcrk under the piesent conditions. "We consider," they went on, "that, the wnfces paid to this force are in- sunicient lor the nature of their ser rices they render and we lecommend that the question of increasing then salaiies should have consideration." 'The pio\\Incial jail we found to be in pertert order and everything spotlessly clean, but tliere is much overcrowding. This ls a condition of things that ought to be remedied at once, and we recommend that there be nn entirely separate building for the female prisoners. "We wish to express our approval of the precautions taken at the land registry office for the pievention of flre and preservation of the documents, the institution in this respect being thoroughly up to date, but the wor"k of filing applications, etc., is one year In arrears and still accumulating. This would seem to call for an increased Etaff and a lai ger build ing. "At the Royal Columbian hospital we found that the matron, Miss Scott, assisted by a capable Etaff, is rendering efficient ssrvics under very ad- ve-se conditions. The building the grand juro-s unanimously condemned as tco small, .insanitary, and unsafe in case of fire." RAIN STORMS DO GREAT DAMAGE Western Missouri Swept by Heavy Rain and Wind Storms.

Visits Columbian Hospital, St Ann's Academy and St. Mary's Hospital ���Regal Banquet Served. ***************<* It was a day of so many delightful episo.'.eB, this May Day which at last has come and gone, that It Is hard to pick upon one which for any reason stands out above the others. But there Is one side to the earliest, functions of the May Queen which appeals to all in its meaning, one which Is to some extent hidden from public view, but which is rl;e in food for reflection as to tte (.ooi effected by the observance of the grand old festival of spring. Woman Is no.vhere seen to better advantage than when bent upon an errand of ministration to those who are In need of help ln any sense ot the word. So while the school children aie eagerly diminishing the piles of candies and oransea In the big machinery building lt may be of Interest to follow the movements of the queen and her court. The royal party has Its presents, the grey horses are called and away they go down the hill, away to the left, and so come to the Royal Columbian hospital. It Is a sight Indeed to see the pain drawn faces light up with loy as the little maids pass through the words giving flowers ta the inmates. It Is indeed as though a ray of sunshine has been wafted Into the place. The matron and tbe nir ses welcome the party, and after a little wblle off they go again. ' The next halt Is at St. Ann's academy and here a royal welcome waits The girls of the institution are all drawn up in readiness to receive the (iueen and one of their number steps forward and presents her majesty with a delightful basket of the -hidf est (lowers and an address breathing of tenderness and allegiance. At St. Mary's hospital the party again stops, and again flowers are dls tributed by the girls to the patients there. Last of all the court proceeded to tbe home of the e\\-queea, and there ���he regal banoyet was enjoyed. To serve othera as well as to reoeive homage ls an attribute of a queen in- I deed. May Day Scenes and Parade of Fire Brigade Were Recorded. The moving picture operator was a busy man yesterday, so too were the city engineer, who steered the auto containing the machine, and also the publicity commissioner. Just befoie noon the whole of the fire brigade turned out and passing down Columbia street formed up near Eighth stroat and came back up the street as fast as the horses could run. It was a brave show witb Pire Chief Watson in his red auto leading the way. The cinematograph was used ox* tenshely during the time that the procession was making its way to the park, and tlie chief incidents of the plrturesque ceremonies were recorded by It such as the crowning of the queen, and the presentation ot medal.-; to the boys' brigades, and the old English Maypole dance. Messrs. Pathe Fieres' representative assured the fire chief that the pictures were a g;eat success. They will be shown at the opera house in about ten days time. Besides the moving pictures several photos were taken by iMr. H. E. Leash, who recorded several circuit pictures, one at the Crescent and others during the proceedings at the jark. His services were arranged for by the publicity committee to be used ln articles which will appear in various magazines. They wlll be placed on view eventually in the Colonial Institute the Canadian government office, and the office of the agent general for British Columbia ln London. The amateur knights of tbe bulb were there ln their scores, and many good pictures were obtained. THREE QUILTY BANK CUrftKS PA8S PENITENTIARY QATE8 allowed the prisoner to go on big own recognizance in the sum of $1000. Hs said that the young man had had a ���,ood lesson even if he were guilty. The case is to come up again at tha next assizes. After a forenoon spent with the writing experts the court assembled again at 2:30 p.m. to continue the same kind of evidence. The defence put on t vo witnesses who testified that they did not believe the critical documents were tne work of the same person. Tbe accused did not take the stand. In his charge to the Jury, Justice Clements explained to them how they must deal witb the writing and the expert testimony; that if they thought that such a witness showed bfas then tbey should throw out such testimony. He also reminded tbem that the accused had the benefit of tbe. doubt. ARREST SOCIALIST PUBLIC SPEAKER Seattle Police Run Orator in for Pro. fanity���Others Who Follow More : Cautious. The big gates of the penitentiary swun-; open yesterday morning and three young men, who a few days ago, were regarded as faithful employees of two banking institutions in Vancouver, passed in, and there for many months to come, their proper names will be Changed to numbers. Dressed In smart, well cut clothes, and handcuffed to sturdy Vancouver policemen, their appearance created a aad scene for the few people who caught a glimpse ot the j roceedlngs. The recent disclosures in the two banks involved, has c.eated an lmcression throughout tbe towns on the mainland, and probablv throughout the who'e Dominion, for ucwa travels quickly.' Seattle, May 10.���The police tonight arrested a Socialist speaker who was addressing a large street meeting at Fourth and Pike streets. He was booked for using profane language. The speaker, who was evidently t-ikon by surpi tse, asked the crown to disperse In an orderly manner. Wben the patrol wagon rolled away wltb the prisoner, tbe crowd gave a cheer for blm. Hls place on the aoap box was taken immediately by another speaker, and still other speakers were made ready for the expected ordeal of arrest. However, the second orator, who avoided the profanity of hls predecessor, was not molested. So far as known there ls no Intention of beginning a "free Speech" crusade. but only to compel the Socialist orators to abstain fiom..obscene and profane language. No Socialist street speaker has been arrested since ths free speech war of several yeara agov which was won by the Socialists.

We have the Chinese among us in Iiriiisb Columbia. Many people doploie their presence perhaps many more go further than merely deploring, but, however, this may be, we should not. let our attitude towards the Chinese in our midst interfere with our attitude towards their unfortunate countrymen in China itself. The ciuestlon at issue is upon a far ���wider plane ihnn one of race or creed. lt. is one of humanity as a whole. Some 50 cents of our money will save a man's life. Suiely, if this could once be fully realized by the people of Westminster there would be no lack of contributions. Men, women and children are dying literally by the thousands in China. Tbe failure of tlie harvest and the upheaval which has resulted in the birth of the Chinese republic is responsible for this statt of things. Food supplies are short, and will be until the new harvest is gathered in. Pitiful talcs are told of Fiinllar famines where numbers of people bad not quite enough food to tide themselves over until tiie growing crops should have been garnered, and died in scores by the side of the fields of slowly maturing grain. A few cents can easily be spared by every one in the city who will turn for a moment to call at either of the following places where contributions are received: The Hank of Montreal, tlie City Hal (collector's department), the Brit isl; Columbian office and the Daily News office.

WESTMINSTER DAILY NEWS i page nva SPORTING REVIEW ��������������������������������� ��� BA8EBALL. Tie trouble that besets Promoter Jack Curley at this stage of his promotive activities is how to keep Jack Johnson's face straight whll�� he (the promoter) is trying to convince the publlc of the sincerity of his efforts to bring about a championship battle to a finish between Johnson and Jim Flynn. Johnson has done little but ridicule the match ever since he entered into it, and his attitude is making it hard for Curley to Impress the sporting public with the genuineness of the enterprise or to bring it soberly to consider the fight ln the light of a possibility. The forfeits are up, Johnson's jimong theni, and from the formalities already complied with there woull be uo valid reason that the intent Is not to go to a finish with it lf Johnson, who Is the ipoat essential part of it, would attune his conduct to the pronator's policy of publicity. It ls a (iue��r state of affairs when Curley has to regard the principal party to the agreement as the chief "knocker" and has to resort to offers to bet to counteract the effect of Johnson's -sneering remarks. Ileally what Johnson has been saying about the match when told again means nothing, but lt leaves the impression that he Is not entertaining seriously the thought of flghting Elvnn In July. Until Curley clears the atmosphere on that corner the enterprise, which wlll have to Inspire a healthy general Interest to make lt pay for itself not to mention realize a profit, will languish. Johnson's assistance will have to be enlisted to boost In a positive and emphatic manner to give the affair the true ring. It will not do for him to remain skeptic or oven Indifferent. He must be brought to realize that it wlll be through his efforts as much as through those of Curley and Flynn that the light ls to he brought av>out. baseball weather with us now, It appears to be high Ume there should be something doing in this line of sport. The members of the Westminster Cricket Club will hold tlieir first practice game on Moody Square this afternoon.

Book in hand, with his firmer in tho plae\\ he entered Mr. Illnke's room to Iind him luiricd in books like a , spider in the middle of his wob. Without looking up, Mr. Blake said: i "Weill-" Mr. Holton explained the situation, and Mr. Blake thereupon asked hia to r id the clause. "I stood up there like a schoolboy," said Mr. Holton afterwards, in relating thc incident. "And v;hon I hail finished the bnro reading of the clause Mr. Blake said, 'Well, tliat :s what it means,' and that is all 1 g^t out of him." One of Mr. Blake's greatest speeches in Parliament wns his arraignment ot the C. P. R. bargain made by the Government of Sir John Macdona! I. This was in the early eighties. The speech lasted several days, and was a masterly presentation ill detail of the Liberal party's criticism of what they believed was rank improvidence and extravagance. The subsequent affluence of the railway is taken by many as evidence of tin soundness of Mr. Blnke's position on this question. The length and minute detail of the speech was nuittel ior much comment, and-nt times cf jocular remarks. Mr. Blake's own favorite story ol this speech, which he often told to friends afterwards, ] was as follows: One of the officials I of the House who was engaged oil Hansard and had heard much of the ; speech was asked oner night as he ' wearily emerg.'d after opj of hii i "takes" how far Mr. Blake hail got. ��� He replied: "He has crossed to the I Pacific; he is on his way east; he is over the divide of the Koeky Moun- tains, coming down grade, brakes off, all steam nil, and going likj hell." The length of Mr. Blake's speeches i used to cause embarrassment to his political advisers. On one occasion he was asked to cut down some of 1 them that Ihey miyht be uore con- venier.tly used 'in pamphlet form. He replied that ho woi Uoi ���" liiem pretty hard mini had cut tlirjii ilnaai. ns close as he knew how. "If you ca:i cut them any closer I am perfectly agreeable," be observe.

The writing of nutn- eru; despatches, the L ������. of dailv orders, the holding of courts-martial, the reception of Arab deputations have all to take place in this one ui artment, whieh also serves as the mess fo.' all the meals of the staff. I/ ever I snw compressed discomfort I saw it in that untidy room. The borders of the camp have heen continually enlarged since the beginning of December by the arrival i f Arab contingents from east, south and west. A war drum would be heard in the distance, and gradually a column would appear over the gent'; undulations of the desert. The Arabs advanced in ragged "fours," the result of the elementary drill provided by a couple of Turkish regulars who marched with them. At the head of the col- umns rode the sheikhs, splendidly mounted, and crescent flags, tinbrdi i- ered with Koran texts, waved in the air. Amid loud shouts of welcome the new arrivals would march round the camp, and then, taking up tlieir bivouac ground, settled down in colored musses "like garden beds," in the words of the Gospel narrative. At other times they ranged themselves in hiy semi-circles, with the mounted chiefs in the centre and tin standard- bearers moving to and fro along the lines. The spectacle was really magnificent in its display of elemental vigor and p- ��� :ion. Suddenly in resonant tones sonic Arab would chant the retrain. "We are warriors, we fea' not death for our fatherland"; and then tit- massed ranks raised tlieir rifles and swords and shouted with one accord, "We are true sons of our father"��� i.e., in colloquial English, "chips nf tl old block."

Thnt orchestra was composed of two M.P.'s, but nevertheless it was a three-piece organization. The pair cf M.P.'s weie Joseph Russell of Kast Toronto, and Adam Crosby of Halifax. Both went down tu detent, in the recent election, and so the niuhts are no longer "filled with music" at the House of Commons. Joe Russell made but one or two speeches, or rather remarks, while he was in the House, but he made music���lots of it. He could play two instruments at once. He had contrived a wire arrangement to hold a mouth organ between his lips, the wire passing around his neck. With his hands he played a banjo. Adam Crosby was a clever performer on the tin whistle. He could extract sweet melody from that till whistle as easily 89 Joe could twang the banjo. Many a time did they get together and edify their fellow members with the strains of that good old Scotch air, "Cock o' the North," It was their "piece de resistance." M.P.'s would wander out into the corridors looking lor other M.P. 'g whom they could summon into the Tory committee room and form an audience. M.P.'s would ask other M.P.'s Ior their favorite tunes, and the orchestra would be asked lo play "Kvery Kittle Movement." or "Home, Sweet Home," but "Cock o' the North" would be thc answer. No matter what was asked for. that orchestra would crime to the front with the old reliable "Cock o' the North." And no it happens that Messrs. Crosby and Russell are much missed by their fellow members of the la-t Parliament who were lucky enough to get back to Ottawa. Si'aaAi ..azrjz Took Poster's Seat.

The delegate is a big strapping specimen of manhood, and Mr. Borden addressed him genially. t "I'm glad to meet you," he said, 'and I assure you I never saw that chair better filled. I hope you'll occupy it aa your own some day." "Thank you," replied the Brantford man. who happened to be a prominent Liberal of that city, "thanli you very much, but if I ever occupy this chair you'll be sitting on the other side of the House." The Premier enjoyed the joke hugely and passed it along. the Turkish left on De-c. 4 and th consequent removal of their headquarters to Azizieh, the Italians i p- pear to have been living in a fool's paradise of security. They received a rude shock on Dec. 19, when a bri- gf.de under Col. Fava set out ior a small ousis to clear out some alleged marauders, It is difficult to estimate the actual losses of the Italians in this disastrous engagement. In no modern campaiirn has there ever been exhibited so bare- fac.-I a disregard for statistical accuracy as is found in Tripoli to-day. However, in the present instance, the straggling flght and final rout took place within a short distance ot where I was, ami Turkish officers who had means of discovering the enemy's losses with some degree of accuracy es''mated that several hundred of the Italian infuutry and gunners had been killed and wounded. At any rate, 200 rifles were actually collected and brought in. Ammunition, boots, helmets, and hats stripped from the dead jr found on the field of battle were exposed for sale in the market. The Turkish casualties were eleven killed and 40 wounded. The lerslii foxes N.B., Costly Foxes. rioneer Fox Farming Ca. El- . I'.ILI., dispojed of a pair of recenlly to a firm in Chatham, for $7,300.
