Five Cunts JR RACING DURING BIG STORM [undred Miles in Hour and Fifty-five Minutes velve Competing Aviatora For I Forty Seven Thousand Dollar Prize I—Four Hundred And Eighty- [Eight Mile*. Croat Country Flight. (Special to the Optimist) | Mezieres, France, August 11th.—In le four hundred and eighty eight miles ]oss country flight, for a prize of 7,000, Leblanc this morning completed le third leg of the perilous journey from fcncy to Mezieres. The distance is one Tindred miles and he made it in the re- jarkable time of one hour and fifty five kinites. None of his six companions lualled this.. iLeblanc came in during a blinding electric storm, the lightning playing about his frail aeroplane as he swooped over the town. Hearing the staccato of his motor above the roar of the onrush- ing storm the entire populace of Mezieres turned out into the streets to greet the flying machine wildly careening in the gale, the stays of the planes taut with strain as the aviator swooped to earth. The storm forced Lindpainter, Aubrun, Cammerman, and Vullierme to descend, the first two at Chalons and the last at St. Michaels. Later all ascended ed and finished the day's run. The other aviators from Nancy were Lieutenant Fequant, Lieutenant Vullierme, Legagneux, Ranez, and Aubrun, the latter arriving second. Leblanc's official time for the two hundred and eighty-five miles covered so far is five hours and forty-eight minutes. This paper refuses to suspect any persons, but yesterday the dynamiting department of the City Council bombarded the printing shop, just as the daily was going to press.

CAN AFFORD TO MARRY lorganatic Wife of Late King Leopold to Wed Retired Merchant I Paris, August 11.—Baroness Vaughn, |e morganatic wife of the late King Vpold of Belguim, has announced her fcgagement to Emanuel Durieux, a (tired merchant of Neuilly. GOVERNMENT WHARF Petition to Have Construction Rushed to a Completion Council is Taking Over the System To-day. A petition to premier McBride was being circulated yesterday, calling upon him to use his influence with the Minister of Public Works to have the government wharf at the foot of McBride street completed without delay, as was promised by the government Bome time ago. The petition recites the fact that the Grand Trunk Pacific wharf is inadequate for the rapid increase of the com merce of the port, and that outside th boats of this company there are twenty regular vessels of other steamship companies regularly plying here. The consequence is that often the wharf facilities are congested and vessels are compelled to wait for a chance to berth, to the great inconvenience of the shipping interests and the public generally. As a case in point it is noted that the railway company announced recently its intention of building an extension of its present wharfage for the handling oi iu coal and other material. The petition seemed to hit the right spot, for during the afternoon some hundred and fifty signatures were appended to it. It is dated August 12th and by that time the signature of every leading merchant and business man in the city will have been obtained for it. The Board of Trade has called a meeting of its council for three o'clock Saturday afternoon to take up the petition and consider other business. The Telephone by-law was finally adopted by the council last night and everything is now ready for the council to sign the agreement and take over the plant. The mayor and clerk were instructed to sign and seal the same today The Telephone Committee met last night for a few minutes and appointed E. A. Woods, J. C. McLennan, F.S. Clements, W. D. Vance and D. G. Stewart a board of trustees to handle the business until the old company is properly wound up and all the details are completed. A meeting of the shareholders and representatives of the council will be held tonight in the city hall. It is expected that the telephones will be operated on Saturday for the first time and that free service will be allowed the first two days and that charges will start from Monday. There was a lengthy discussion as to whether the shareholders of the old company should receive a bonus or not. The general opinion was that most of the shareholders would not accept anything and did not expect it. It was therefore decided to pass a vote of thanks to the president, officers, directors and chareholders for the services they had rendered. Aid. Pattullo, on behalf of the company made a suitable reply. PECULIAR ACCIDENT HUNDREDS FACING STARVATION Thirteen Railway Engineers Are Buried Alive. Vast Tracts In Japan Flooded.— Thousand Houses In Shidzukoa Submerged.—Trams Are Stalled And Passengers Without Food (Special to the Optimist) Tokio, August 11th— Reports show a shocking increase in the number of disasters and fatalities on the Island of Hondo owing to the continued heavy rains. The region between Yokohama and Tokio is a sea of mud with several villages under water and hundreds of people facing starvation. Two trains are stalled near Kanaya and the passengers have been without food for two days. There are three hundred of them and they are beyond the reach of rescuers from Horinouchi. There are six hundreds refugees in a Buddist temple here. Thirteen engineers were caught in a slide as they were rushing to rescue the passengers from a partly submerged train, and all of them were buried alive. At Shidzukoa over a thousand houses are submerged. The city of Takasaki is a veritable lake. Part of this city is under water and there is much suffering. The rains continue although clear weather has been forecasted. THE LEVINE CASE Locomotive Suddenly Dumped on Deck of Steamer Conveyor ONE VIEW OF LAURIER New York Journal Hails Has as Friend to United States On this side of the line they would call Wilfrid Laurier an insurgent, and a dried-up old man with a cigar cocked in one corner of his mouth would be making funny speeches about him off on the prairies. In Canada he is Right Hon. Sir. Wilfrid Laurier, Premier of the Dominion and the biggest man in it. Just now he is swinging round the western circle, dedicating wheat fields and launching bridges.and hammering his ideas of political progress into the ear of crowds that cheer themselves black in the face at the thought of reciprocity with the United States, a lower tariff and friendly relations with all the world. Now and then some one calls Wilfrid Laurier an annexationist but without authority. The most he will say is to declare his friendship. "I am a great admirer of the American people," he said the other day. "One of their marked characteristca is an ability to look after Number one. I propose that we do the same."— Sew York Globe. The Conveyor was loading one of the dinky shunting engines for use up the line this morning, when the crane broke down under the weight and dumped the engine right on top of the capstan of the steamer. No one was injured. The engine weighs over ten tons and a bigger crane was at once obtained to lift it from the capstan. The Developer was sent out this morning in place of the Conveyor. POSTAL FREE TRADE Mr. Henniker Heaton Urges Abolition Of Frontier Regulations Editor the Optimist:- Dear Sir,—The following letter which explains itself was promised insertion in yesterday's issue of the Empire, but as it failed to appear I will thank you to give it space in your paper. Yours truly, A. S. Levine. Editor, The Evening Empire:- Dear Sir,—In regard to the article on your front page of yesterday's issue, entitled "Levine Case, A Fine Kettle of Fish", I would like to point out one or two errors. Your statement that the assets are not ascertained is incorrect, as the same paper that shows the liabilities shows the assets also. Also, the company were not partners at will at the start as you state. A partnership agreement was drawn up and signed by the partners, and the declaration registered in Prince Rupert before a dollar's worth of goods was bought by the company,or by any one • on its behalf. It follows that there was no organization of the company, nor any arrangement made as to the taking over of the partnership assets. Further, Mr. Levine was representing himself at the creditors' meeting, and not the Stewart Mercantile Company, which was represented by the assignee, Sheriff John Shirley. Naturally he did not make any proposition. I am under the impression that the only "heat" in the matter iB the hot air that has been given your reporter. The whole article seems to have been written with the intention of influencing certain criminal proceedings now in progress, and you have been long enough in the field of journalism to estimate the propriety of articles of that description. Yours truly, Adv't. A. S. Levine. London.August 6.—Mr. Henniker Heaton is urging the appointment of an "Imperial and foreign postmaster," whose first duty should be to convene a meeting of European postmasters-general with a view to abolishing the political frontiers for postal telegraph and wireless communications between the countries of the world. DASHED INTO CROWD Famous Aviator Seriously Injured in Flight on Atlantic Coast (Special to the Optimist Asbury Park, N. J., August 11.— Walter Brookins, the noted aviator, was seriously injured this morning when his machine broke and fell. It dashed down among the crowd of spectators and seven of them were hurt. GO TO THE COURTS If You Want to Know Whether or Not the Mayor is Disqualified In reference to Ratepayers' letter in the Optimist last night mentioning Mayor Stork's connection with a contract to make ballot boxes for the city, the mayor told the council last night that if the writer was sufficiently interested to know whether or not that contract would disqualify him there was a court of law that could be applied to.

CRIPPEN'S TALE IS VERIFIED ANOTHER EXAMINATION OF THE REMAINS OF THE WOMAN Found that Woman Had Undergone Operation Before Death.— Prisoner Intimated in Confession Wife Died From Operation. (Special to the Optimist) London, August 11.—Experts who have been again examining the body found in the basement of the Crippen home, today asserted that it is that of a woman who had undergone an operation before death. This corroborates a rumor cabled by the Quebec correspondent of the London Chronicle that Crippen intimated to the Canadian officials that his wife had died from the effects of an operation performed by him. The experts found nothing from which the identity of the remains could be established. GRADE SIX AVENUE Petition From Ratepayers Asking That the Work Be Done A petition was presented to the council last night calling for the grading of Sixth avenue between Fulton street and Summit avenue. The petition was referred to the Streets Committee This is a long stretch of streel and a big piece of work but if the pro|>erty owners are prepared to pay for it they will no doubt be grunted their request. They have followed the proper course in asking for the work to be done. COST OF GRAND TRUNK STRIKE COMPANY CAME OUT WINNERS IN FINANCIAL SENSE Trainmen Sustained Loss of Hundred Wages.—Company Saves Over Million By Conceding Demands Of Strikers. Toronto, Aug., 3.—The settlement of the strike is received here with much satisfaction by all classes. The union element is pleased at what is regarded as a decided advantage gained by the men in having the Grand Trunk concede a mileage rate of pay instead of a monthly wage, and the promise of the standard rate in a year's less time than waa formerly offered.

(Special to the Optimist) Dillon, Mont., August 10.—The bandit arrested here yesterday is stated to be William Haney, the man who held up the Canadian Pacific express and afterward shot and killed Police Constable Decker at Ashcroft. This was a year ago last June, and the hunt for the man and his accomplice at the time was one of the most thrilling in the history of railroad hold-ups. Posses were out after them all over the country. The two men were seen several times and in the course of fleeing from the police they stole rifles, horses and boats. They were landing at Ashcroft when Policeman Decker attempted to arrest them. Haney shot the constable and again made his escape. HAYNOR BROS.

Thursday, Aug. 11 THE PAY-ROLL The city is' now paying in salaries something like $50,000 a year; over one- third of the taxes. The Optimist endeavored to secure the exact information from the city officials but was refused the figures by the order of Mayor Stork. Evidently Prince Rupert is to pay immense salaries and big pay-rolls without knowing where the money is going to. Is that not pretty coarse work for a new administration in a new city. If the tax-payers are not to know what salaries are paid and who get them what is likely to become of the proposed million dollar loan? The Optimist believes that under such conditions the council will not be able to find a bank or corporation to make the loan. There is only one way to prevent rake-offs and that is to let the public in on all civic business. jf- Here is the list of city officials which the Optimist got from the city clerk. The mayor refused to allow him to furnish the figures. The public can size it up and guess where the money is going. E. A.

It is a la-port with many lines of steamships ling here, and already railway trains |re making their way up the Skeena ver bringing nearer and nearer to those the interior the hope of easy trans- ortation. Assembled here in this city Ihich is destined to become a great ketropolis, the centre of a mighty jevelopment in the northern half of this a-ovince, we of the Diocese of Caledonia, t embraces the same region as mem- ers of that historic church which be- un Christian work in this neighbour- id fifty years ago, must feel the thril- { interest of the present moment as watch the unfolding of events and ndeavor to do our part in laying the Inundation for the moral and spiritual jvelfare of a great nation in the West. In reviewing the year since last we net as a Synod we must first mention ome of the losses which the Church has lustained. Last May the whole empire felt the shock of the unexpected death him who while occupying the highest jsition in the realm was ever a loyal nember of the Church of England. King Edward Vll will long live in history the great Peace Maker of his age. In this Province the Church of England has met with the loss of a Bishop who py his fidelity to duty and consistent christian character endeared himself ) all who knew him. As I was an understate of King's College, Windsor.N.S. fvhtm Dr. Dart was President of that niversity, I felt the death of the late Jiishop of New Westminster as a personal ss. This Diocese has been called upon to nourn the loss of a devoted layman who laboured with marked ability as principal of the Indian Industrial School Metlakatla for nearly twenty years. Many of our native young men will remember with gratitude the debt they owe to Mr. J. R, Scott. Not only by death but also by re- noval we have suffered loss as a diocese. |R"v. M. H. Jackson who for nearly Itwo years did most efficient work at lAtlin was obliged on account of his I wife's health to leave us and take work J where he could be near expert medical I advice. We have also met with serious loss jby fire. The beautiful new church at Ellington only opened by me a year ago i lul month was totally destroyed by j 'ire early in the morning of June 8th. This second loss of a church building in less than eighteen months has been a staggering blow to the Rev. W. F. Rush- brook, but thanks to the S. P. C. K. insisting upon a larger insurance before giving a grant we shall be enabled to build a smaller church with the insurance money and local assistance, in the way of labour . given, without appealing for outside help. from our losses let us now turn to our gains. It was my privilege on St. James' Day to take part in the consecration of Rev. A. U. De Pencier as Bishop of New Westminster. Having laboured in the same diocese with him a« a neighbouring clergyman for some years, I feel that the church of this province has been greatly strengthened "y ihe promotion to so high a position <>f one so familiar with Canadian church life und so vigorous in action. The Southern boundary of this Diocese in the northern boundary of the Diocese of side of the river at Fort George is in our Diocese, the other in his. As neighbouring bishops I feel sure we shall work well together. As Prince Rupert is not only a growing city but also a convenient centre from which to work out-lying missions, I am most thankful to be able to announce that I have secured the assistance of two clergymen—Rev. T. C. Des Barres B. A. formerly curate in charge of St. Jude's, Nottingham, and Rev. W. G. James, B. A. formerly rector of Pincher Creek, Alberta. While not neglecting the centre but giving it men of different gifts we shall be able to do more in the way of ministering to the small settlements which are springing up in the neighbourhood. Ever since I came to this Diocese I have had on my conscience the abandoned Mission to the Stickine Indians. There were two difficulties in the way of reopening this mission—the man and the money. Rev. Frank Palgrave, as a holiday trip, revisited this Mission last summer and brought me such an appealing account of the Indians still loyal to the Church of England, still waiting for us to send them a missionary that I could not refrain from doing my utmost. The way seemed to open wonderfully—the Indian department promised a grant for the Day School at Tahl-tan, kind friends in England made a generous donation and Rev. T. P. W. Thorman accepted my call tj return with his son from England and reorganize the work which he laid down on account of his wife's declining health seven years ago. Aftei a dangerous trip up the Stickine in a gasoline launch he and his son arrived at Telegraph Creek on June 9th and a few days after reached the Indian village of Tahl-Tan, where he found things which he had left in the mission house seven years before untouched—a tribute to the honesty and loyalty of the natives. He opened the day school at once and soon had fifteen scholars in attendance. It is a matter of rejoicing that our church and mission house at Tahl-Tan are once more in use and that the Indians who have waited so patiently are again being ministered to by one who can talk their language. The church has advanced during this year not only in the way of more clergymen being brought into the diocese but also in the way of new missions being opened. The transfer of Rev. Wm. Hogan from Port Simpson to Masset has placed at the entrance to Masset Inlet one eminently adapted to minister to the settlers who are beginning to fringe that remarkable water-way into the heart of Graham Island. New Masset has been given regular Sunday services and the congregation there are ready for a church building. A'few months ago Stewart was only a hamlet of half a dozen log houses. To-day it is a town of about 2,000 inhabitants. We have there a church and a neat parsonage with Rev. W. E. Collison in charge of this new mission. Forced.on account of the railway to tear down our church and mission house at Inverness we have built on a better site a building consisting of church with rooms attached which the Rev. J. H. Keen has found most serviceable during the fishing season. Another step in advance which we as a Church have taken this year has been the incorporation of the Synod of the Diocese. While the Bishop has for some time past been a "a Corporation Sole" to hold church property in trust, yet with the growth of our church work it will be found mere, satisfactory to have church property vested in the Synod. This can now be done under the act of Incorporation of March 10th, 1910. Turning to matters which affect the that a forward step has been taken within the last few weeks in the way of preparing for some kind of provincial organization. While I have expressed myself on former occasions as in favor of as simple an organization as possible it seems that under the constitution of the general synod there is no other way of our organizing than in the form of a provincial synod which while safeguarding our Diocesan Rights will allow us to take united action as a church in British Columbia. The chief work assigned to a provincial Synod by the General Synod is the subdividing of Dioceses and the appointing of bishops. Naturally this vast missionary diocese will be the region most affected by this if we agree to the formation of a provincial Synod, therefore in the draft which has met with the approval of delegates from the three other dioceses in this province who were in Vancouver July 26th, and which I hope to submit for your consideration at this session of Synod, a clause is inserted which will protect the interests of a missionary diocese founded by a missionary society. By resolution of General Synod the question of the formation of an ee- upon which we are endeavoring to build. The Church throughout the Dominion of Canada by resolution of the General Synod has agreed upon a common standard known as "The Preliminary Examination for Holy Orders". All the theological colleges o£ whatever type of churchmanship accept this, and the ground covered in the different courses of study is practically the same. There is a common Board of Examiners for Divinity Degrees with representatives upon this Board from all the theological colleges. Further in this common standard set by the church as a whole there is a frank recognition of the different schools of thought in the church. This is done in the way of alternate textbooks. Still further if a candidate chooses certain text-books, as allowed, the examiner is a member of the Board in sympathy with the teaching contained therein. Surely it is an easy step which '■ must commend itself to all broad-1 minded churchmen to allow, in a college professing to be a provincial institution, the teaching upon controversial subjects which is embodied in authorized I alternate text-books to be given by clesiastical Province of British Columbia professors in sympathy with the views depends upon whether the dioceses in- i embodied therein.

A month from today our brethren in Nova Scotia will be celebrating on the historic spot the 200th anniversary of the first Anglican service in Canada.While we cannot be present in person we can in spirit stretch forth our hand from the Pacific to the Atlantic across the vast Dominion of Canada and give the Diocese of Nove Scotia in the extreme east the heartfelt greetings of the Diocese of Caledonia in the far west. "We are not divided, All one body we ; One in hope and doctrine, One in charity." Christian love above everything else is the bond which binds us together. May we as a Synod in all our deli-' berations feel more than ever that while there are diversity of gifts and differences of opinion we are all working for the one end under the leadership of the one master, Christ our King, to whom we would once more bend the knee and take the oath of allegiance that we may the better serve under the.banner of the Cross our day and generation in the uplifting of humanity. LAND PURCHASE NOTICE *ew Westminster. For example one church in this province I have to report chrystalized. Surely no words can express the importance of starting right. The solution suggested by these words may under God's blessing yet be accepted. As my words upon this vital question will be read far and wide by those interested on both sides not only in this. province and Eastern Canada but also in England, I shall state even at the risk of being somewhat lengthy the position which I have taken. It will be remembered that this Synod at its last session confirmed the stand which I then took by passing the following resolution:- "That this Synod declines to recognize any theological college as being for the whole church of this province without this Synod having due representation on the governing body of the same." This was at once met by the supporters of St. Mark's College offering to rescind their provisional constitution and give this Diocese proper representation. After consultation with out diocesan delegates Rev. J. H. Keen and myself, this principle was embodied in the new constitution. There yet remained the still more difficult question of a representative on the teaching staff which was mentioned by me as a second matter of vital importance. This led me to suggest to the authorities of St Mark's College a scheme of an affiliated school in which lectures on controversial subjects would be given by professors in sympathy with the line of teaching imparted. Not being asked to act for those in Vancouver who were promoting Bishop Latimer College my suggestion took the form of an affiliated Diocesan institution taking the students of the final year for lectures on Ecclesiology, or the Doctrine of the Church, the Ministry, and the Sacraments, but I made this suggestion, which was accepted by St. Mark's College, with the earnest hope that it might open the door for the affiliation of Bishop Latimer College on similar lines. A few days ago it was my privilege to meet in Vancouver the promoters of both colleges with our Diocesan delegate, Mr. G. H. Cowan, M. P. present to support me. Negotiations are still in progress and no formal action has yet been taken but I believe there is good hope for at least a measure of cooperation. Perhaps I could not be doing the cause of truth and harmony greater service than to outline the foundation 1 tent an influence as lecturing. A boarding house for the students is not a vital part of a Provincial College. The simple expedient of two residences, each with its own Dean meets the objection. The outcome would be this:- One "Anglican Theological College of British Columbia" affiliated with the Provincial University, with a handsome building on the University grounds, containing lecture rooms, library, reading room, convocation hall etc. All lectures to be delivered in this college, j with two adjacent residences "St. Mark's Hostel" with a warden and "Bishop Latimer Hall" with a principal, both men being not only deans in residence but members of the college staff of. lecturers. All students would register at the one college but would be free to choose their residence, and alternate set I of lecturer on certain subjects. There would be a common board of examiners as outlined and a diploma issued by! the one college. If untrammelled by the associations of the East we in the West can at the very foundation of things agree heartily upon some such broad and united policy BS this and escape the scandal of two j rival colleges we shall be setting an example to the whole church in Canada which will redound to the glory of God and the advancement of His Kingdom of Truth and Love. In regard to the Indian Land Question i I take the ground that the Indians arc wards of the Dominion government and that if. they have any grievances It is for the Dominion Government to take up* their cause with the Provincial Government and see that they get their rights. I deem it unwise and unneces-1 sary to stir up the minds of the rank and file of the Indian bands throughout the country by circulating petitions and asking them to raise money for lawyers to fight their battles. I am glad to say that no clergyman in this Diocese has done this. As a church we have appealed to the Dominion Government and received assurance that earnest efforts arc being made to obtain a decision which will be recognized by all as final. In facing the future we us a Diocese while doing our most in the way of self- support through contributing to our Diocesan Mission Fund, must of necessity look for assistance in our pioneer work from the church in Eastern Canada and in the Mother Land.

Fulton St. and Third Ave. LONG DISTANCE MOTOR RACE ONE OF COMPETITORS IN RACE PUTS IN HERE The "Limit" Probably the Speediest Cruiser on the Coast.—Many Inspect the Vessel.—Race Starts From Ketchikan Next Monday. As a result of the invitation of the Publicity Club to the Pacific Motor Boat association for the boats in the long distance race from Ketchikan to Vancouver to call here, one put in yesterday and some of the other entries for the race may do so today or tomorrow. The start for the race is to take place next Monday, and there are about fifteen entries. The motor which put in here is called "Limit", and it is supposed to represent the limit of highest speed yet reached in such craft. A large number of people made an inspection of Limit, and there is no doubt it awakened a decided interest among those who know the variety of pleasant excursions that can be made in smooth water all around Prince Rupert. The Limit flies the house flag of the International Power Boat association, and visitors were courteously received by the acting secretary and originator of the association, F. M. Foulser. He was secretary but resigned in favor of E. L. Kinman, former owner of the Limit, who is now operating a quartz mine he has bonded at Ninemile Mountain. The present owners of the boat are A. W. Le Page, Wm. R. Marriott and Wm. Fellows, who were all on board, the other members of the party being Mrs. Ed. Allen, Miss Anna Worth- ington and Mrs. Viola Nollain. Although the little boat is but fifty feet long with a beam of ten and a half feet, the whole party is comfortably accommodated, so cunningly is space economized. Forward is the dining saloon, neatly fitted with sideboard and other conveniences. Next the galley, with cooking range on the one side and butler's pantry and carving table on the other. Aft are two state 100ms with bunks. Amidships is the secret of the fame of the fast cruiser, the Ralaco engines of fifty horse power. Some idea of the speed these engines produce may be guessed fiom the fact that in the long d stance race in which it was last a competitor it was handicapped by a minute for each mile. This in a run of sixty miles. In another, the distance of which was 231 miles, the handicap was seven hours. Secretary Foulser says the association has had this Alaska long distance race in mind for two years, and that it is certain to create a great interest in all aquatic circles. The idea of it is the ;dea for which the association was formed— to bring to a popular realization the value of the motor boat for the purposes of pleasure and commerce. These races would probably be semi-annual affairs and each to be run between two points. The association had followed the course of Prince Rupert with interest, and one of the early races to come would certainly have this port as its objective point. This was the finest water on the coast for such boats and their trip up here had been much enjoyed by the whole party. At four o'clock this morning the Limit skimmed away with the speed of a fish hawk. She will not know what her handicap is until the morning of the race. The visit of the Limit awakened so general an interest here that the Optimist has arranged to receive the results of the race from Ketchikan to the Vancouver yacht club boathouse reported by wire.
