C, Aug, 10.���An appalling disaster occurred here early this morning when the Ok- anagan hotel was destroyed by | fire and eleven persons perished in the flames. The building was a large brick- veneer structure and was patron- j ized chiefly by the loboring class. It had about sixty guests, and so | sudden was the onrush of the flames that those who escaped did so with great difficulty, while numbers never got out of their rooms. The fire was discovred about 2 o'clock by a policeman, who immediately gave the alarm; but when the fire brigade arrived a few minutes later both stairways were seething alleys of flames, and in an incredibly short time the building was blazing in all quarters. The night was fortunately calm and the brigade succeeded in saving adjoining buildings from destruction, though at one time the safety of the business portion of the city was threatened. This morning when a gang of men began the work of search ing the ruins a terribly grew- some sight was revealed as body after body was brought to view until eleven were removed. The remains were so charred and blackened as to make it a matter of difficulty to identify the victims, but the following are known to have perished: Wilbur Smith, carpenter ; J. J Funston, laborer; James Anderson delivery man for J. W. Glover; Julius Fuerst, bartender, a relative of the proprietors of the hotel, from Wdtaskiwin ; Gaorge Gannett and George McKay, of Calgary; George Seltgast, Archibald Hickling, M. Chabtree, Wm. Cook, and one other. Hickling lost, his life in his attempt to save the life of one ot the domestics in the hotel after hiving saved one of Sigalet's daughters. Patients in the hospital as a result of the fire are Patrick Hanna, Thos. Hall, Samuel Seal, Tnos. Abbot, Robert Feathers, Michael Strugar and Wm. Nicholls. The premises of the Royal Bank of Canada, P. Burns &Co., Morris drug store and F. A. Loveridge's real estate office were considerably damaged. The Chinese were very active in their endeavors to save their quarters. The hotel belonged to Sigalet & Albers and the loss is about $25,000, with $10,000 insurance. Wenatchce-Oroville. (From tl���' Hedley Oaxotte.) Seattle, Wash., July 31.-Realizing the great commercial future of North Central Washington because of its prolific wheat fields and wonderful orchards, the Great Northern Railway is preparing to rush construction in that part of the state, which has been neglected so many years from a transportation standpoint. Contracts are to be let this week for the construction of a seventy mile line to connect Brewster and Oroviile, near the Canadian boundary. Later on, this line will be built south to a junction with the main line at Wenatchee. Track-laying on the Waterville branch has been pushed rapidly and the work is completed twenty miles above the Columbia River. These branches will be exceptionally rich feeders for the Hill lines. The Columbia River branch from the Canadian boundary will ultimately result in establishing a water level haul. Regatta No. Three of the 1909 series, will be held at Naramata, under the auspices of the Naramata Amateur Athletic and Aquatic Association, on Thursday, afternoon Aug. 26, 1909, commencing with a band concert from 1:30 to 2:0 given bv the | Summerland Brass and Reed Band. The great success of the last regatta has spurred the management to greater efforts and everything points to one of the most exciting and spectacular events of the season. Arrangements for handling the crowd are greatly improved, the capacity of the grandstand has been nearly doubled and the arrangements are complete in every way for providing the brightest and snappiest five hours sport ever offered to the public in the Okanagan. On the enlarged grandstand there are 20 boxes, seating 8 persons each. Box seats, 50c, full boxes, $3. Grand stand seats 25c. Those desiring boxes should fyle application early with Mr. George Wolstencroft. Naramata. The following is a list of events for which valuable prizes will be offered:��� Sailing race, handicap; Men's double sculls; Greasy pole; War canoe race, 15 paddles, for the Robinson cup and medals. Mixed double sculls; Single canoe race; Swimming and diving; Junior war canoe race, 9 paddles, boys under 20, for the Price Ellison silver medals. This is the final race for these medals; Mixed double and men's double canoe races; Senior war canoe race, 9 paddles, for the S. C. Smith Lumber Co. silver medals; Baseball match���Kelowna vs. Summerland for the Price Ellison cup. This promises to be the most exciting baseball match of the season. Each club stands with one game to its credit. The winner of this match takes Mr. Ellison's beautiful trophy. Arrangements have been made for the S.S. Aberdeen to leave Kelowna at 12:15, calling at Peachland and Summerland. Returning will leave Naramata at 8:30 p.m. Excursion rates. The Maud Moore will run between Penticton and Naramata.

Peaches are beginning to come in. There will be considerably more to market than was expected in the spring. Word has been received from W. H. Keary, Manager of the Provincial Exhibition at New Westminster, to the effect that the management will pay all freight, or express, charges on any individual exhibits of fruit or vegetables, will see that they are exhibited, and will forward any prizes won to the winners immediately after the close of the exhibition. Penticton is one of the few places that will have peaches this year, and it would be a good advertisement for the place if a number of the growers would forward exhibits. Those having friends visiting them will confer a favor by acquainting the Press with the fact. All other local news thankfully received. C. M. Brundage and family left for Vancouver this week. G. G.

Mr. James Goldie, who returned after a few days absence in in the boundary country, reports that a gang of ninety men are actively engaged at .construction work near Rock Crek on the Mid* way extension. Work has. beea begun, not at the actual end of the twelve miles of the gradejeon- structed by the Midway-Vernon a few years ago, but a little farther on. The men are engaged for two months, and although the people in the vicinity do not view seriously the present operations, it is believed that, after the next session of the Dominion parliament, at which an adjustment of the different charters held by the Spokane and British Columbia Railway company will be applied for, that company will push the construction of its line through to the coast. The work being done at the present by the company is believed to be for the purpose of holding its charter or to gain the confidence of the government. C. P. R. and Hope Pass. Vancouver* B. C, Aug* MX ��� There are: new developments in the railway situation in the Similkameen district. The Canadian Pacific railway may j build a line across the Hope mountains to a point opposite Hope station on the main line, says a report brought by a Canadian Pacific official from the upper country. A large party of C. P. R. engineers under the direction of Mr. W. I. Bassett, formerly assistant chief engineer of the V. V. & E. railway, is now said to be seeking a route across the range. Surveyors have already gone west up the Otter river to its headwaters at the summit and are now working down the Coq- uahalla river, which flows into the Fraser on the west side of the divide. In some particulars the route from Princeton west will almost parallel the located route of the Great Northern, whose graders are now at Princeton. The C. P. R. has already located several lines from Midway, the terminus of its Columbia & Western branch, via Southern Okanagan to Merritt, whence a branch line now extends to the main line at Spences Bridge. The distance from Princeton to Vancouver via the' Hope mountains is 164 miles, as compared with 309 via Spqnces Bridge. The C. P. R,'has*been quietly preparing data abqbt the route for several years.' At had an employee camped out in the Hope mountains all last fainter in order to take records^of the snow* fall.

Box 203, twenty miles distant to the north-east of Penticton and 5,400 feet above sea level, or 4,300 feet above Okanagan Lake. Any person enjoying a rough ride over an exceedingly rough, I though picturesque mountain trail should make the trip to this reservoir. Last Tuesday, in ompany with W. D. Lan. aster, superintendent of the irrigation system and son, we visited this i reservoir for the first time. The ascent required five and one-half hours and the return trip five, hours. Those who have not visited this or the Ellis Creek reservoir, can little imagine the amount of work done, and expenditure made, by the Land Co. in order to provide the Penticton fruit lots with an adequate water supply. The Penticton Creek reservoir is somewhat larger than that at the head of Ellis Greek, being about three-fourths of a mile long by one-fourth wide. It is constructed by build- a large darn across a valley, j While we were present, Mr. i 1/tncaster had the water from the reservoir turned on for the first time this season, there having been sufficient for all requirements up to the present time from the numerous tributaries lower down. As the irrigation season will terminate about the 20th inst., no further evidence of the abundance of th�� water supply need be given. The Company keep two men at this reservoir, they being engaged in' strengthening the dam and seeing that everything goes all right. A third reservoir is now under construction on one of the tributaries of Ellis Creek. i On leaving Penticton, the trail ascends very rapidly until the summit, probably nearly six thousand feet above sea level, is reached about twelve miles from ' town. High as is the altitude, I clover and timothy are found' growing vigorously everywhere I along the trail, the seed having been dropped from hay that was packed over the trail for the' l horses at work when the dam [ \\ was under construction. Some 1 good timber, pine, rlr and tam- I arac, is met with on the ascent ; but near the summit, and from I there to the reservoir, only black i pine exists. This latter, although I growing very tall and straight, | does not grow large enough to be of any commercial importance. i This great country, too high ! and rough to ever be of value for ' farming, should be a vertiable I Paradise for the hunter. Where water is plentiful, animal life ' is always certain to be abundant, and here streams and springs are continually to be met with. The tracks of a wildcat were plainly discernable along a great portion of the trail, while deer tracks were to be seen everywhere. No game was seen, however, with the exception of some grouse. The larger game, no doubt being aware of our approach, kept out Mid=Summer Sale Cash Only. The time has arrived when we must prepare for our fall stock. Already many lines are on the way, and we must make room. All summer goods must go, and go at prices that will be money savers.

In addition to its value as a game preserve, this mountain j land, through its thick growth of | black pine, is invaluable as a water conserver. It would be a good plan for the provincial government to acquire this land 1 from the Canadian Pacifiic Railway, to which it now belongs, and convert the region into a reserve with fire rangers to pre- j vent the devastation of the timber growth. Once this timber were swept away by fires, the ; snow would melt quickly in the [ springs and run off, lessening the | supply for the irrigation of the fruit lands on the benches and in the valley below during the dry, warm summers. *T 0) 3 e | to- to yi. ei 2. a 3 3 K M k 0 f *1: 0 B o :cow VI a B4a a rn (fi rn r- O o S 3 Ei* ~�� in g s 9 3--1 -=e CO *i k.8��i|.* c1"'�� S* np" ~*. wil! prove a welcome visitor to every member of the family.

The establishment of this office is the direct outcome of a visit in June by W. Marchant, of Victoria, Dominion Inspector of Customs. The Penticton Board of Trade must, however, be given the credit for previously pressing upon the Department of Customs the need of the office. When in Penticton, Mr. Mar- chant assured the Press that he would recommend the establishment of this branch of the customs service.

She never reinenibered luiw she climbed those stairs, for sbe was borne along by thai hypnotic power which drags, one to behold a catastrophe in spite of his will Iteaclilng the room she stood appalled; for the group she had jollied watched two raging things that rushed al each other with inhuman cries, ragged, bleeding, lighting on a carpet of debris ICvery loose and breakable thing had been ground to splinters as though by iron slugs in a whirling cylinder To this day. from Dawson to the straits, from I!nga to the. arctics, tnen tell of the combat wherever they foregather at daring cmiiptlres or in dingy bilukhouses. and. although some scout the tule, there are others who snw il nnd can swear to Its truth These sir that tlie encounter was like the battle of liull moose in the rutting season, (hough more terrible, uvert'lng thai two men like these had never lieen known In the Ian.I since the days of Vitus ltering and his crew: for their rancor had swollen till at feel of each Other's flesh they ran mad and felt superhuman strength it is true, al nn.v rate, that neither was conscious of the filling room, nor the cries of the crowd* even when the marshal forced himself through Ihe wedged door and fell upon the renrest. which was Oleil ister. He cume at an instant when the two had paused al arm's length, glaring wilh rage drunken eyes, gasping the labored breath back into their lungs. With a ding of his long arms the young man hurled the Intruder aside so violently that his head struck the iron safe and he collapsed Insensible Theu without apparent notice of the Interruption, the fight went on. It was seen during this respite that McNa mara's mouth was running water as though he were deathly sick, while every retch brought forth a groan Helen heard herself crying. "Ston tbem! Stop them!" (tut no one seemed cnpnble of Interference She heard bet brother muttering and his breath com Ing heavily like that of the fighters, his body swaying In time to theirs The judge wns ashy. Imbecile, helpless. .Me.Vavnara's distress was patent to his nntngotlist. who advanced upou hlin with tin' hunger of promised vie tory, but tile young man's muscles obeyed Ills commands sluggishly: his ribs seemed broken, liis back was weak, and on the Inner side of his legs the flesh was quivering As they came together thi' boss reached iqi his rlghl hand and caught the minor bj the fine burying thumb and lingers crablike into his cheeks, forcing his slack jaws apart, thrusting his head backward., while hi- centered every ounce of his strength in the effort lo maim Rot fell the flesh gnlng way and flung himself backward to break tlie hot whereupon ihe Other summoned his wasting energy and plunged toward the safe; where lay tbe revolver In stinet warned (Jleuister of trencheri, told him that the man had sought this last resource to save himself, and as he saw him turn his hack and reach for the weapon the youth leaped like a panther, seizing him nbout the waisi gfdtfjlluu McNamara's wrist with hi! light hand. For Ihe tirst time during tlie combat tbey were not face to face ami on the instant Itoy realized tin advantage given him through the oth ers pcrtidy, realized the wrestler's bold that was his and knew that the moment of victory was conic. Tlie telling takes much time, but so quickly had these ihings happened thai the footsteps of the soldiers had not yei reached llie door when llie men were locked beside the safe. Of what happened next many garbled accounts have gone forth, for of all those present none but tlie Bronco Kid knew its significance and ever recounted tlie truth concerning it. Some ������Intra that the younger Jiiau was seized with a fear of death which multlplle I his enormous strength, others that the power died in Ids adversary as reward for his treason, but it was not so. \\o sooner bad Itoy encompassed McNamara's waist from the rear than be slid his damaged hand up past the oth er's chest and around the back of bis neck, thus bringing Ids own left arm close under his enemy's left armpit, wedging the receiver's head forward, while with his other hand he grasped tbe politician's right wrist close to the revolver, thus holding him in a grasp which could not be broken. Now enme the test. The two bodies set them selves rocklike nnd rigid. There wns no hinging about, (.'ailing up the final atom of bis strength. Olenlster bore backward with his right arm. and it became a contest for the weapon, which, clutched in the two hands, swayed back and forth or darted up and down, the fury of resistance causing It to trace formless patterns in the air with its muzzle. McNamara shook himself, but he wns close Against Unsafe and could not escape, his head bowed forward by the lock of tlie miner's left arm. uud so he strained till the breath clogged In his throat. Despite tbe grievous toil ids right hand moved back slightly. His feet shifted a lilt, while the blood seemed bursting from his eyes, but he found that the long fingers encircling Ids wrist were like gvyea weighted with the strength of the bills and the irresistible vigor of youth which knew no defeat. Slowly. Inch by inch, the great man's arm was dragged back, down past bis side, while the strangling labor of his breath show ed at what awful eost. The muzzle of the gun described a semicircle and tho knotted hands began to travel toward the left, more raoidly now, across his broad back. Slid be struggled aud wrenched, but uselessly. He strove to fire the weapon, but his fingers were woven si limit it so tbat the hammer would not work Then the miner be- uran forcing upward. The white skill beneath the men's -trips of clothing wus stretched over great knots and ridges which sunk and swelled and quivered. Helen, watching In silent terror, felt her brother sinking his fingers into her shoulder and beard him panting, his face ablaze with excitement, while she became conscious that be had repeated time and again: "It's tbe hammer lock���tbe hammer lock." By now' McNamara's arm was bent and cramped upon his back, and then they saw Olenister's shoulder dip. his elbow come closer to bis side, and his Isidy heave in one final terrific effort as though pushing a heavy weight In the silence something snapped like a slick. There came a deafening report and tlie scream of a strong man overcome with agony. McNamara went to bis knees and sagged forward on to his face as though every bone iu his huge bulk had turned to wnter. while his master reeled back against the opposite wall his heels dragging In the litter, bringing lip with outflung arms as though fearful of falling, swaying, blind, exhausted, his face blackened by the explosion of the revolver, yet grim with the light of victory. Judge Stlllman shouted hysterically: "Arrest that num. quick! Don't let him go!" It was the miner's first realization that others were there. liaising his I head he stared at the faces close , against the partition, then groaned the words: . "I beat tbe traitor a nil-and-I broke hhn with���my hands!" rHAPTBR XXII. SOLDIKKS seized tlie young man. ! who made no offer ill resist- i ante, and the room became a noisy riot Crowds surged up from below, clamoring, questioning, till some one al llie head of the stairs shouted down: 'They've got Itoy Olenlster. He's iillled McNamara." ai which a murmur arose that threatened lo become a cheer Then ope of the receiver's faction ��� ailed. "Let's hang him He killed ten of our men last night." ll'lcn wttleed.

Ihey had him near the door whe'i Wheaton barred their way, crying: "Hold iqi a minute! It's all right, Itoy"- "Aye. Bill it's all right. We did our best, but we were done by a damned blackguard.

Bul Wheaton hold his place, while tlie room centered its eyes upon him, scouting some unexpected denouement, lie saw it. and, in concession to a natural vanity and dramatic instinct, be threw back liis head and stuffed his bands into his coat pockets, while the crowd waited.

"Serve those warrants." and they stepped forward. The uproar of the past few minutes had brought men running from every direction til. (hiding no room on the stairs, tbey had massed in tlie street below while the word flew from lip to lip concerning this closing scene of ll ar drama, the battle of the Midas, the great lig'it upstairs and the arrest by the 'Frisco deputies. Like Siud- bal's genie, a wondrous tale took shape from Ihe rumors. Men shouldered one another eagerly for a glimpse of tlie actors, and when tlie press streamed out. greeted it witli volleys of questions. They saw the unconscious marshal bririic forth, followed by the old Ju.lge. now a palsied wretch, slinking beside Ids captor, a very shell of a man at whom tbey jeered. When McNamara lurched Into view, an image of defeat and chagrin, their voices rose menacingly. Tlie pack was turning ami he knew it. but. though racked and crippled, he bent upou Ihem a visage so full of defiance and contemp tuous malignity that they bushed themselves, and their final picture of him was lhat of a big man downed, but unbeaten to the last. Tbey began to cry for illenlstei'. so that when he loomed in tlie doorway, a ragged, he rale figure, liis heavy shock low over his eyas, his unshaven face aggressive even in ils weariness, bis corded arms aud i best bare beneath the fluttering streamers, the street broke Into wild cheering.
