WANT UNION OF CHURCHES District Methodist Ministers Favor Radical Change MAYOR'S WELCOME Public Meeting Last Night Discussed Union of Presbyterian Congregational and Methodist Churches Not a Dissenting Voice Heard. Not a single dissenting voice was heard last night when the subject of church Union of the Methodist, Presbyterian and Congregational churches was discussed at a public session held in thc Methodist church near the G. T. P. Annex, of the conference of the Methodist ministers of all lhe churches in this district. A vote to determine who is and who is rot in favor of the union will be taken at the meeting of the conference today and every delegate has intimated that he will vote in favor of the union. Since the first joint committee of the three churches in question met in Toronto, December 21, 1904, to talk over the advantages of joinging together as one church, Rev. G. II. Raley of Port Simpson, chairman of the meeting, explained the subject has become a prominent one. "There is nothing in the way of the evangelical churches uniting," he said. "There is a scarcity of men for the church work and this would help solve the difficulty.' On the Road "We are a long way on the road towards lhe consummation of lhe marriage of the churches," stated Rev. J. C. Sing. "Difficulties may be in the way, but these may vanish with the actual union He spoke al some length on the many phases of the proposition and concluded with the remark: "I for one believe that the bodies of Protestantism would be greatly benefitted by the union." Gave Warning "Co slow," was the warning | issued by Dr. R. W. Large of Port Simpson, who explained thai when the Congrcg.it ionnlisls of Canada VOted on the subject some lime ago only fifty per cent of the members of the church look advantage of the opportunity t<> vole and only 86 per cent of those who did vote were in favor of the union. He also submitted that it was believed that an approximate number of Presbyterians in favor of the change was two to one. Dr. Large, however, said, personally he was in favor of the proposition and would vote accordingly. Mayor Welcomed Visitors Mayor Manson maintained that Northern B. C. would materially gain by a banding together of the three churches and In a short speech gave his reasons for his belief. Then, on behalf of the citizens of Prince Rupert, he welcomed the visitors here. Rev. Mr. Raley replied to the welcome. Divisions Harmful "It is a hopeful sign of the limes that church union is being discussed," contended Dr. Kergin and he avowed thai divisions in religious matters caused a waste of lime and money. Dr. J. C. Spencer of Skidegale, Rev. W. II. Pierce of Port Es- sington and C. S. Reddick of Poll Kitamaat, also spoke in favor of the union.

MORROW 1070 Nelson Bt,, Vancouver, B.C. Wednesday, May 3 THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS The unfamiliar sight of a newspaper, the Inland Colonist ol Kitselas, printed on light brown paper of more than usual thickness, ami the editorial explanation that "owing to the lack of newsprint in town, the paper is being printed mi wrapping paper supplied bj local tradesmen" makes us pause to pay a iriliutejo the Spirit thai will not lie beaten. It is the spirit that has made the West; a spirit that has been richly exemplified by the pioneer newspapermen ol British Columbia and lhe prairie provinces. In proportion to its population Canada has morejnevvspapers than any country in the world. It is a tact to be read into the other fact of Canada's great development, 'lhe newspaper is a nccessitj to development Nothing helps ,i town more internally, nor advertises it more effectively to the outside world than a well conducted newspaper. For instance an English school mistress with interests in Prince Rupert writes to the Daily News this week, and tells of reading to her class a story of the castaways on Zayas Island in an Optimist of two or three months ago; a subscriber in York, England, tells ol how lhe paper is passed round among a circle of friends: a slory ol the exploits of a Graham Island settler on his way to his pre-emption brings an inquiry from Virginia about Graham Island. The wide- awakeness of the frontier newspaper, puts to shame lhe hundreds ol towns in ilreat Britain with from 5,000 to 15,000 inhabitants who cannot support a local newspaper. Getting out a newspaper on the frontier is a very different matter to gelling out a newspaper in a city block with a paper factory at one end and a machine shop and type foundry in the basement. It was the editor of the Inland Colonist we think who entertained his readers last fall with a harrowing tale of his troubles with a broken chase. In a city not one man in a thousand knows what a chase is; in Kitselas every man, woman and child lias a personal knowledge of and regard for the source of the Colonist's trouble. Every time the monkey wrench drops into the press and gets run over by accident every man, woman and child in Kitselas goes into mourning with the editor. And this Spirit that Will not Down, this spirit that runs the edition off on wrapping paper rather than be beaten, affects a whole community. It inspires others to share in the sacrifice. Main a man in Kitselas this winter has carried home his new suit of clothes over his arm. saying: "Never mind wrapping it up. Send the wrapper over to the Colonist instead,with my compliment-." Many a woman has stayed up late at nights hunting up wrappers from parcels and smoothing them out for the press. Getting out those brown paper editions has become a communal feature, something in which everyone in Kitselas could lend a hand or a sheet of paper. The spirit that prints the edition on brown paper of various shades, is the spirit that conquers. It is the spirit that has built up, the West. It is something to boast of. So with a feeling of genuine regret we read in the last edition the editor's announcement thai he intends to move his plant and energies to Tclkwa -a place he announces in capitals, "where every man is a born booster." . Is this latter a sly dig at Kitselas? ■yr*0. fRochester i ■> v Monroe **: Ladysmitm ij-v ^Coal \v Phone n s MUSINGS ■■ BY MACK Haunted by a word.

A Woman's Fancy Seriously Turns to Thoughts of Hats The important thing in the matter of hats is always to wear what is most becoming, and certainly there is no excuse this season, with hatl of every size and conceivable shape, for any woman wearing one that does not suit her style. There are certain women who may wear only small hats, while others seem to demand something larger, more splendid or clashing. Hut thc artistic woman tries to discover what style suits her best and then dresses accordingly, whether she follow the fashions rigidly or not. The floral turban appears as regularly as spring itself. It seems to be a compromise between the winter and the summer hats, and though each year sees some new development of it, it is nearly always becoming for the reason that flowers soften and tone down nearly every face. One of these floral toques was quite a gorgeous affair of immense yellow and purple pansies. Another was made of large single Russian violets, with four elongated hxips of bright blue velvet ribbon at the back. A third, which was very dainty, was of large roses of the palest pink, arranged in symmetrical rows, with several loops of violet velvet rib- Ih.h. Turbans such as these are worn, of course, only in the afternoons and with elaborate gowns of foulard, surah and changeable taffeta. Large hats may this year be worn at all places and seasons: they are used quite as much with the tailored morning suits as with evening gowns; and, in fact, fashion in that respect is now completely reversed. Whereas we used to wear the small hat during the day, considering it more correct to reserve the large picture hat for evening, thc exceeding beauty and richness of the new turbans have made them thc accepted form of millinery for evening wear. Ornamental head-dresses arc now fashionable for theatre and evening wear, and they certainly impart a great deal of brilliancy to the costume. They may be as simple or as ornate, as one pleases. Some are merely a ribbon of tulle twisted ipund the head and fastened with B crystal buckle, while others are high caps of iridescent gauze ornamented with pearls, aigrettes or feathers. tions of the pigmentary glands, while the others are tonics and cleaners: hydrochlorate of pilocarpine, (i grain;.; tincture of jaborandi, 1 ounce; rectified spirit of wine, 1 ounce; rose water I ounces; orange flower water, I ounces; any perfume desired.

Before long the blaze of the brilliant electric sign will illuminate our streets. J. II. Kelly has applied to the city council for permission to erect one over the Phenix theatre. There was some discussion about the matter in council, Alderman Clayton expressing himself in favor of Illuminated signs as they are revenue producers, but remarking that if projecting signs were to be prohibited in some cases (such as his own) they should be prohibited in all cases. Some signs, he said have never been taken down. The question of signs is left meantime in the hands of the streets commit tee. Mayor Manson inclines towards favoring the permission to erect signs not projecting very far over thc sidewalk. Wants More Time Eric Rosang has applied for an extra three months for the completion of his contracts on Third avenue and Hays Cove Circle. He pleads the strike as a hindrance, also alleging delay in cross-sectioning by the city. His request went to the streets committee.

The Grand Trunk P* nouneed that they are joint owners In the townsite of Ellison, Now, my dear reader, you must remember that tip to date the Grand Trunk Pacific has not announced thai it hai any interest in any other main line townaite in I!riti>h Columbia. Doei that -tart you thinking'.' STUDY THE MAP and you will find that Ellison II where the railway tracks leave navigation, That fact is 1 very Importai t one for conservative investors to think over.

Tlmre Will b) towni in the vici: I 'I along branch railways, probably towns at the ends of branch hne« made t.. tervc thc mines and the collieries, hut it will be history repeating itself In regard to the building up of every metropolis. Ellison has every natural advantage, I al -mark Of being the future mercantile and financial cer.tr, "f the Skeena River mining district and the entrance to the Bulkley Valley. STUDY THAT MAP and you will and that all of the mining towns and railroad tOWltl around then , I Ing to he talk. I ll 0 .t will only be feeders to cit\ rt of ELLISON, The Grand Trunk Pacific hu 1 1 its official stamp on Ellison, Do you believe the con,; ai Will do as much fur townsites owned by II dividual! as it will for or,, in which its stockholder* are joint oa If you I, don't buy any hits ir Ellison. If you desire to I investment, or merely to make I quick money, you must decide for yourself right now, Ihi ynu propose to follow the individual townsite promoter! or the Crand Trunk Pacific Railway Company. STUDY THAT MAP-If you desire to put ycur n j Into a real estate promoter'! townilte you win have many, many opportunities this summer. The average promoter is full of hurrah and retl tire. He must enthuse investors of the mail-order class with his war.-. ELLISON is in the Missnuri class. Therefore, 1 am not telling any fairy tales about it. I am making statements that can be readily verified. STUDY THAT MAP.-If you want to join that great army of Inveatori-at-long-rsnge, then you should put your money into promoters' townsites. If you want a ; • rfectly safe and sound inuestment, certain to bring von large pmtits. then rut your money where the Grand Trunk Pacific, after years of careful investigation, have put their money. STUDY THAT MAP.-It is not likely the Grand Trunk Pacific will have any other townsite in Hritish Columbia for sale this year. The official! of the company state that the company is not interested in any townsite in the Hatelton district except ELLISON. ELLISON Is on tiie bank of the Skeena at its confluence with tin? Bulkley. You may change railway sur- v, vs. you may change the location of towns, but you cannot change the geography of the country throtig'h which the railway passes. The head of navigation necessarily means an important townsite. Ellison will not only be at 'he head of navigation, but the centre of a mining district wonderful in its resources that is now being opened up, an I for which Ellllon will be the shipping point both by rail and water. The fact that trains niuv change engines up or down the line or in the suburbs' of the town of 'illison does not amount to shucks in building up a tov.n when such places are compared with a town located where rails and navigation meet , ST,li!„y TH,AT M,AP' Yn" wil1 r,ml 00 the official plan of Kllison that a large part of the townsite has Imen reserved for future sales, the same as the company has dons with certain sections of I'rince Rupert townilte There are. therefore, at this time.
