No. ■£ni_ THE WEEK, SATUKDAY, JULY 23, 1910 One Dollar Pee Annum OT A MAN, NOT A GUN The Victoria Times undertook to de- ounce Mr. Barnard for certain state- ients which he made at the annual nieet- lg of the Board of Trade with reference the attitude of Sir AVilfrid Laurier at ie time of tlie Boer Avar. The Times also tidertook to give Mr. Barnard the lie cause he stated that the attitude of Sir Wilfrid was absolutely summed up in the icturesque, if not historic, phrase, "not man, not a gun." It was hardly worth hile answering the Times because the cir- mistances have not been forgotten by ictorians, even after the lapse of ten ars, and the permanent impression left i every mind was that Sir AVilfrid never itended to send a contingent to South frica; that he endeavoured to justify s refusal, and that he only yielded to, ie force of public opinion. It has reamed for a good Liberal, writing to the ews-Advertiscr, in the endeavour to in- ilpate Mr. Barnard, and exculpate Sir If rid, to prove that the popular inipres- on, as recited above, is well founded, i order to justify the delay of Sir Wil-; id, this correspondent quotes from the oronto Globe of October 3, 1899, the tails of an interview with the Premier, ie quotation is too important to be cnr- iled, and The AVeek makes no apology r reproducing it, because the interview it only shows the position which Sir ilfrid actually took, but it reveals the ner workings of his mind, and confirms i opinion long entertained by thoso who ive followed his public utterances, that, o his great prototype, Mr. Gladstone, i is a master of casuistry and sophistry, l spite of his close reasoning and consti- tional argument the historic fact, is that I his objections were swept away by the erwhehning force of public opinion, and •thing was allowed to prevent the send- g of contingents, although it was done ithout the sanction of Parliament and ic voting of special funds. Whether or ot, the concise phrase which Mr. Bar- ard, in common with many others, used, indicate Sir Wilfrid's attitude is justi- able the readers of The AVeek can judge or themselves, and, whilst thanking a ■oniinciit Liberal for refreshing their icmory on the subject, they will not be disposed to regard Sir Wilfrid's naval olicy with the misgivings begotten of lis historic and not easily forgotten indent. The Premier said: "As I understand the Militia Act, and may say that T have given it some study late, our volunteers are enrolled to be sed in defence of the Dominion. They Canadian troops to be used to fight for anada's defence. Perhaps the most despread misapprehension is that they annot be sent out of Canada. To my lind it is clear that occasion might arise len they might be sent to a foreign land fight. To postulate a ease: Suppose pain should declare war upon Great tain. Spain has, or had, a navy, and at navy might bc got ready to assail- (Jala as part of the empire. Sometimes best method of defending one's self to attack, and in that case Canadian Mors might certainly be sent to Spain, id it, is quite certain that they might gaily be so despatched to the Iberian ninsula." He then proceeded to say that e case of the South African republic s not analogous. "There is no menace Canada, and although we may be will- ;' to contribute troops I do not see how can do so. Then again, how could we so without parliament granting us the nicy. AAV simply could not do auy- ng. In other words, we should have summon parliament. The government Canada is restricted in its powers, ft is responsible to parliament and can do very little without the permission of parliament. There is no doubt as to the attitude of the government on all questions that mean menace to British interests, but in this present case our limitations are very clearly defined. And so it is that we have not offered a Canadian contingent to the home authorities." THE NAAS INDIANS The Colonist of the 21st. contained a lengthy letter, signed "S. AAT. Pollard, Chairman, Indian Land Committee," dealing with the attitude of the Naas Indians towards the land question. In the head-lines he is stated to be "a member of the Northern Band," which may be true, but The AATeek begs leave to doubt whether any Indian wrote the letter in question. It bears traces of scholarship, which make it far more probable that it is a production of the same white missionary who recently flooded the Prince Kupert papers with a statement of the Indians' case, ancl who has constituted himself a champion of their alleged rights. But let that pass. The letter is a plausible plea that tlie Government should withdraw all the Naas lands from settle- were told that if they returned they would be killed. The AVeek also knows that at least one white settler and his family, who had taken up a pre-emption on the Naas Kiver in the Government Reserve, has been driven out of the country by the Indians, and has sought redress at the hands of the Government. The cause of tlie Indians will not be advanced by plausible letters composed by the missionary at Aiyansh and signed by an Indian. Such a letter will impose on no one, unless it be on a tender-hearted editor who knows so little of the Indians that he believes they are prepared to become agriculturists. WATER, ONCE MORE The City of A7ictoria is still in the throes of its agony on the water question. It was a wise step to appoint a representative committee to investigate the matter. But it is very discouraging to learn that after several months work, neither the Committee, the Engineers, nor the Council are in possession of sufficient data to arrive at a decision. This only tends to show the folly of the appeal which was made to the ratepayers, a year and a half ago, to settle the matter when there was not a tithe of the information whicii is " TALES OP MEAN STREETS." Douglas Street, Victoria, A. D. 1910 ment, coupled with a statement that "One thousand Indians are now making their living off these lands, and are prepared to cultivate these lands to meet the changing conditions, and raise the produce that would be required for the towns growing up in Northern British Columbia." it will take a good deal more than the assertion of Mr. Pollard to convince th,' Government, or the general public, that the Indians have any intention of cultivating land on a large scale. They live entirely by fishing, hunting and hiring themselves out for labout'. Although they have occupied in the Niias Valley one of the most fertile valleys in British Columbia, they have not done sufficient cultivation to supply a hundred, much less a thousand, of their own people. The AA'eek is in a position to know that when S. W. Pollard states that "tliere is no trouble threatened by the Indians of the Naas Kiver Valley" and that ' they did not organise any campaign against the whites last winter," he states what is not true. The Week knows that white men were threatened; that their footsteps were dogged bv the Indians for weeks, and that when they went out of (lie Vallev thev now in the hands of the Committee. It is also discouraging to find that, although a special expert has been called in, iu tlie person of M\\ Burwell, the Mayor repudiates his report. Indeed, there is little doubt but that if the Mayor could have his way, he would keep on repudiating until he obtained a report in consonance with his own ideas. .Mr. Burwell has, practically, endorsed Mr. Ashcroft's estimate of the cost of tunnelling, putting it nf $3(1 per foot, and in this he is supported by recent experience at Coquitlam, where the cost was $•'!__ per foot. In spile of this, however, the Mayor says that Mr. Burwell is wrong. It now evolves that no survey has been made of the Sooke Bake watershed, and no gauge of the rainfall, and yet one would think that litis is the elementary information that would be acquired. It leaves the matter of quantity unascertained. With reference to quality, the Committee has, for the first time, procured an analysis of the water, which shows that iu the Lower Lake, nl any rate, il is much inferior to Goldstream and Elk Lake. The figures submitted to the Committee dealing with cost show a minimum ,,f $2,000,000 as against a probable maximum of $1,500,000 for Goldstream; and this difference is accentuated by the fact that even if the Sooke scheme were carried out the City would have to compete with the Esquimalt Waterworks Company, and would only be in a position to control the supply of the smaller part of the district. At the close of a long sitting a sub-committee was appointed to interview the Esquimalt AVaterworks Company and to ascertain the best terms on which the City could now acquire their property. A\\7ith all respect for the gentlemen who compose that committee, The Week cannot but express regret for the course adopted. It simply spells further delay. The basis of expropriation was settled by the local Legislature at its last session. It was so settled at the request of the City, and, in the opinion of The AA'eek, upon an equitable basis, with a compulsory arbitration clause. Docs the Committee think that the Esquimalt AVaterworks Company will expect less than they are entitled to under the Act If they ask more, the City will not entertain the proposition because it can fall back upon its Clauses. It would have been more business-like if the Committee had reported upon the data before it, or had expressed its inability to do so until that data had been supplemented. If it had then favoured the acquisition of the Esquimalt AVaterworks Company, it could go ahead in accordance with the statutory provisions. By its present line of action it is, perhaps unconsciously, endorsing the policy of delay, which is daily increasing the value of the Esquimalt Company's property, and raising the price which the City will, ultimately, have to pay for it. COLONEL DENNISON Al the close of the proceedings uf the Canadian Club Luncheon on Tuesday the President with a suspicion of a quizzical lurking somewhere, asked the Editor of The Week if he was satisfied "now." The question was undoubtedly justified by the circumstances, for, probably, the Editor of The Week was the only editor present who derived unalloyed satisfaction from the proceedings. Col. Dennison is at once the most illustrious and most accomplished of the guests of the A'ictoria Canadian Club. His reputation as an ardent and eloquent Imperialist is world-wide, and his services to the Empire are notable. Like most men who achieve anything of importance, he has made one subject his hobby, and foi'more than forty years litis laboured to cultivate Canadian sentiment in favour of true Imperialism. Descended from United Empire Loyalist stock he is one of the Loyalists who has never contemplated service under another flag, and the repudiation of his own; and he has lived to see the day when, in spite of the Little Englnnders, Canada, as a ivhole is prepared lo endorse an Imperial policy. Col. Dennison's address was instructive to the last degree, and if it was altogether too British for the local "dailies" as evidenced by their lukewarm commendation, it must not he forgotten that the gallant colonel is himself a Canadian. The Colonist gave an excellent report of his address, bill neither the Colonist nor the Times reported the most striking sentence which he uttered. After speaking of what would happen if England lost her control of the seas, and showing that, inevitably, Canada would fall into the hands of Germany or the I'nited Stntes, he said "And in such an event, I for one would rather fall into the hands of Germany, for we should tit least be governed by it people of Imperial instincts." THE WEEK, SATURDAY, JULY 26, 1910 At The Street Corner By THE LOUNQER It would not be a bad idea if our local police in Victoria were stationed a bit more frequently at the dock where the Seattle boat discharges its passengers and cargo. I don't want anyone to run away with the idea that the passengers want regulating; they don't. But there is a lot of traffic, especially on excursions, a lot of passengers, and a lot of ordinary traffic, and a policeman to regulate the latter would be appreciated by all. * * * The Provincial Government can hardly bc congratulated with regard to the way in which thc roadway up to its principal entrance is being laid. 1 understand that a company styled "Hassam Road Company" secured the contract from the Government. Well, I hope that thc Government are sorry, and I know that the Company ought to be. Here is a Western Country on the verge of entertaining a politician, and a famous politician, Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We don't all agree with his politics. Personally, I agree with few of them; but though I may not admire the man as a politician, I may admire him as a man. And I do. I don't like his polities (that is merely a matter of opinion), but I do think that when Canada can boast of such men as Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the late Sir Henri Joly de Lotbiniere, she is to be congratulated, and I do not think that a cheap company like the Hassam should be allowed to make British Columbia's Capital "cheap." * * * It is not often that I am strenuous enough to "lounge" up to Cadboro Bay Road, but I did so last week; much against my own inclinations. The "boss" told mc that I ought to go and see the new tennis, croquet and bowling courts. The foregoing is not as strictly a grammatical sentence as I would wish to see in my column; but we won't say anything about it. 1 was astounded to see the number of ladies and gentlemen who were using the various courts. There are seven tennis courts, two croquet lawns ancl two bowling greens. Amongst the croquet enthusiasts I noticed Mrs. Frank Barnard, Mrs. Laing, Mrs. Little, Mrs. Bodwell, Mrs. H. G. Barnard, Mrs. P. S. Lampman, and Messrs. Geo. Kirk, B. Drake and Dickson. Mrs. Langley was playing tennis; so were the following ladies: Mrs. Genge, Miss Nora Coombe, Miss Rickaby. There were also a lot of young fellows who arc well known in our local banks. Will it bc too rude to say that there were a few "old- timers" amongst the tennis players? I trust not, and if Messrs. Peter Lampman and H. G. Barnard have any ill feelings with regard to my so designating them, I hope that they will realise that I apologise beforehand. Bowls is a game which may be less exacting, but is certainly no less exciting than any other played on the green turf. That appears to be the opinion of Mr. Justice McDonald and also of Mr. Justice Galliher. It struck me that the various courts up on the Cadboro Bay Road are the fashionable rciidesc-vous for the "man about town" who wants to meet thc elite of Victoria Society. * * * There was a note in The Week lately with regard to the flower boxes which have made the Imperial Bank "a thing of beauty and a joy forever." I should like to mention another house whicii is doing its best to please the public. It is owned by Mr. Lucas ancl is known as "Thc Commercial Hotel." "The Lounger" of "The Week Staff" is glad to bc able to congratulate Mr. Lucas on his window appearance, and the same "Lounger" is only sorry that there are so many people living in a temperate climate, where practically all (lowers can bc grown, who tire content to live without decorating their homes ancl offices with those beauties with which Nature has so abundantly blessed us. Ancl in case some "carping critic" gets back at me by saying that The Week has no flower- box, I would respond by remarking that we have no facilities for a box, but that the editor makes it a point to bring down a couple of roses every morning, and that "The Lounger" can always be seen with a small piece of honey-suckle in his button-hole. Dust. The matter of dust has been placed before Victorians so often lately that it really is superfluous for me to take the matter up. At the same time I am compelled to say something in view of the fact that two men, both property owners in the City, called my attention to the fact that the City Sweeper, under or ders, was sweeping a so-called ma cadamized road, on View Street, between Broad and Douglas, last Friday night. The street looked like n fog during a cyclone. Far be it from me to throw blame where no blame attaches; but the sweeper said that he had been commissioned by the City Council. I will say no more. There are some men in town who seem to think that if they cover their bodies with any kind of tight-fitting apparel they are entitled to expose themselves in public and can bathe on a public beach. These curiously minded men are wrong, and I hope that the local police will see to it that they are disabused of their ideas. * * * Last Sunday I "automobubbled." I am ashamed of the incident, but in view of the fact that I didn't pay for the luxury, possibly I may be excused. The other man paid. But I am glad to hear that an Association has been formed, under the title of "The Victoria Automobile Association," which has for its programme good roads, a fair speed limit and a properly sign- boarded country. It is the idea of the Association that Victoria should fall in line with the rest of the Pacific Coast cities, and I, for one, fervently hope that she does so. The Association is only in its infancy and the following officers are elected pro tem. This doesn't mean to say that they won't continue. J. A. Turner, popular all round town, is President; Mr. A. Lee is Vice-President; Mr. A. W. Bridgman, whom everybody, including "The Lounger," knows, is Treasurer; Mr. W. F. Glover is the Secretary. If the Association succeeds in improving the condition of "Victoria's Great Marine Drive," viz., that stretch of road lying between the Dallas Hotel and the Oak Bay Hotel, it will earn the thanks of all people who live in Victoria, and of all people who do not like to see a city habitually advertising a roadway which is not in keeping with its advertisements, ancl which is bound to give the tourist a bad idea both of the truthfulness of thc advertising agency and of the city which allows such abominable roads to exist in her precincts. q4. O-Z^-fZyf, Great Open-Air Whist Drive Nearly 1,000 players took part in tin open-air whist drive held at Ipswich on Wednesday in aid of a £25,- 000 fund for the erection of a sanatorium tis a memorial to King Edward. The Whist drive took place amid picturesque surroundings in an enclosure encircled by trees. Unfortunately, play was suddenly stopped by a drenching rain which drove thc players from thc tables. A Human Choice A conscientious Sunday-school teacher had heen endeavouring to Impress upon her pupils the ultimate triumph of goodness over beauty. At the close of a story in which she nattered herself that this point had been well established, she turned confidently to a ten- year-old pupil ancl inquired, "And now, Alice, which would you rather be, beautiful or Rood?" "Well," replied Alice, after a moment's reflection, "I think I'd a great deal rather be beautiful—and repent." ^ THE PIANO THAT ALWAYS RETAINS THE CHARM OF YOUTH KRANICH & BACH, "NEW ART" BELL, BROADWOOD, CHI CKERING, HAINES BROS.

One can't sibly criticise these plays, because arc a roaring farce throughout, it is impossible to analyse a joke. is quite enough to say that if a |i is in "the dumps" Lewis & Lake take him out. and I much enjoyed those which I saw. This house has made a point of catering to the best class of the public and, I believe, is finding itself well rewarded. The Majestic Theatre The Yates Street House has been running a fine line of pictures during the earlier part of the week, and 1 have no doubt but that there is just as good a show on there on the evening of the day on which we publish. But it stands to reason that I cannot speak with authority on a series which has not yet arrived. The Majestic has always had good films and has always pleased its audience. Other Remarks During the course of the past week two extraordinary letters appeared in the Victoria Times with regard to Moving Picture Shows. The Times was perfectly right to print the letters, because a newspaper-reading public is entitled to have its views put into the public press. My remarks are not directed against the paper but against the writers. I will admit that, occasionally, the films shown are not all that they might be. I have seen films which might be called vulgar; I have seen films of melo-dramas which are not, in my opinion fit for young children. But there is nothing in this world which is entirely free from abuses. Wc have to take the rough with the smooth, and for the most part the Moving Pictures afford a cheap amusement, a clean amusement, and, very often, an educational amusement. If there is anything wrong the remedy is in the hands of the Police, who are not always as wideawake as they should be, even in Victoria. MOMUS. * * * * * New Grand Theatre Mr. Henry Lee, "The American Actor," in whom the spirit of wanderlust is strong, has made a complete tour of the world with his company. He not only excifed the wonder and admiration of the whole world, but was the sensation of the four continents. Mr. Lee's offering will include speaking likenesses of great men, past and present, including thc noted American humorist, the late Mark Twain. Mr. Twain's vocal peculiarities arc portrayed so mar- velously, that distinguished critics have said that by closing one's eyes, one might believe Twain alive again. Mr. Lee not only assumes the form and feature, face and limb, of various celebrities of the world, but actually becomes the men themselves by means of diction and style. Mr. Henry Lee will bc thc feature of the Grand bill next week. A thoroughly enjoyable number will be furnished by Harry Leeds and Trixie LeMar, a duo of Austra- VHNITY B0XES All Women Like This New Fancy — the most original, most charming of trinkets. Delicately designed and ornamented, a "Vanity Box," worn on a chain, forms a delightful finish to the costume. Being useful, it serves a double purpose. JUST COME FROM PARIS See them in our window.

Mr. Irving has developed tin offering for vaudeville different from anything ever presented, for he has achieved every art to entertain and charm. As an instrumental virtues, Irving is su- pcb. His novel instrument of a single string, on which he renders popular and classical selections including numbers from Bohm, Pierne, Scholtz and others, is marvelous. Irving will doubtless capture the plaudits of every Grand patron next week. The Military Acrobatic Comiqties, Black & McCone, present an entire circus themselves.

An irresistible laugh-maker is Hal McCone, the famous Barnum & Bailey clown, lie has not only made millions of children laugh till over the world, but has won the plaudits of as many grown-ups as well, for his ludicrous antics are surprising and original.

The company is the largest and best ever carried under this well- known title. The chief fun-makers are Clarence Powell, Billy King, Charley Wilson, Willie Nash, Elmer Clay, Kid Langford, David Smith and Oscar Cameron. The vaudeville portion of the program embraces Fred Simpson, the Trombone Virtuoso; Moor, the Hindoo Mystifier; the Alabama Quar- tete; Clarence Powell, The Man Who Talks About His Family; the big spectacular song ancl dance, "Georgia Flirtation," requiring the services of a double sextette of singers and dancers, and thc One-Act Musical Comedy, "Blackvillc Guards." Fred Simpson's Challenge Band of 35 musicians and William Rohison's Operatic Orchestra of 12 accompany the organization. There will lie a big free street parade at noon.

BLAKEMORE, Editor Bad Language BY BOHEMIAM 1 wish that a lot of people whom I know could have been with me la:t Sunday night. I attended thc service at Christ Church Cathedral, and was well rewarded for my pains. The Rev. Mr. Chambers of Winnipeg was the preacher. Mr. Chambers is an orator; he had a subject which was evidently a matter' of heart interest to him, and it was a subject which interested me deeply. He spoke fervently about that habitual use of bad language, filth and blasphemy, which, to our shame be it said, is such a feature of this Western Country of ours. It is no use trying to deny the indictment. The streets of Victoria and Vancouver re-echo with language which would not be tolerated in Whitechapel. Respectable men, that is to say, men who hold responsible positions in the Western world of commerce, are constant offenders. If I were called upon to do so I could name a dozen, and I believe that I could make it a hundred, men of recognized high standing in the two cities referred to, who are habitual users of language which would have made Jack the Ripper go and commit suicide. But the worst is not told. It is from the mouths of babes and sucklings that we hear the words that ■ shock us most. An oath from their lips is infinitely worse than the same expression from a grown man. But it is from the men that they learn to swear. T lately read an excellent little story which points a big moral. The master of the house came home and found bis wife dissolved in tears. On inquiring the reason he wastoM that "Little Willie had been overheard swearing on the streets." "I'll teach the young beggar to swear," said the irate parent, but on his way to little Willie's bedroom hc tripped and barked his shins. After about five minutes the mother put her head out from the dining-room and said: "I think that is enough for one lesson, dear." And that is the crying evil; men will carry this swearing habit back to their homes. I don't speak as a prude. A Bohemian is not usually credited with very much in thc moral line; in fact I don't condemn bad language as a sin, but as a breach of good taste. During my time at the 'Varsity a man who was known as an habitual user of bad language had a bad name. He was "bad form," than which there is no worse designation amongst cultivated Englishmen. There is no real satisfaction in using swear-words. It is excusable, perhaps, to say "damn" when your pet corn is trodden upon; thc same expression may be used when a car is missed by a hair's-breadth, without condemning the user thereof to the eternal pains and torment. But thc man who cannot conduct a conversation without the help of oaths, blasphemy and filth will not find me on his calling list, and he will not find very many decent men on it either. And, sad to say, men are not the only offenders. I know women in Western Canada of whom the same indictment holds good. I am not talking of the women who are the occasion of frequent paragraphs in the papers with regard to "The Social Evil." I am referring to women who consider themselves respectable, but who do not think it a social crime to swear in front of their children. It is not the "sin" of the thing which annoys mc, it is the abnormal conception of what constitutes "good taste" and correct "form."

A curious ' logic, and one which "Bohemian" does not understand. Evergreen Trees for an Evergreen' City In conformity with thc resolution > of the Executive Committee your committee appointed to prepare a paper on thc subject of the caption of this article, beg to submit the fol-1 lowing:— Whilst your committee is not in '■ favour of planting evergreen trees j and shrubs entirely, it nevertheless \\ fully recognises their value, especial- ly for a climate such as Victoria pos- j sesses. The streets of our city can | be made a great advertisement by ' judicious planting. If trees ancl shrubs that can only be grown in doors in the East are planted, they ! will prove an object lesson to every I visitor and one that cannot be dis-, pitted. The extreme mildness of our climate will at once be realised; there will bc a living though silent witness that cannot be impeached. Let us turn for a moment to the actual state in and about the city. The question is often asked why our Parks, grounds, and boulevards are planted to introduce trees and shrubs, many of them of a deciduous character and inferior to our native plants. For instance the Lombardy Poplar, a tree far inferior to our native poplars and again the Boston ivy, a deciduous) plant, which, whilst ornamental in) summer, serves only to disfigure a building during the winter. It is tot bc supposed for one moment that the people in the eastern cities would grow that so called Ivy if it were possible to successfully grow the real thing? And here, where nature is so prodigal with her gifts, we turn away to strange loves. Why grow so many Horse Chestnuts? Surely if trees of a deciduous nature are wanted, why not plant the large-leaved Maple, the smooth leaved and the vine Maple. Wc will undertake to say that there is not a single speci- Flannel Silverware Rolls The best means of keeping knives, forks and spoons. Being made of soft material, with a separate pocket for each fork, spoon or knife, they not only present the articles . from scratching one another, but keep them clean and polished.

Again the Silver Leafed Poplar, an abomination for throwing up suckers and disfiguring lawns and boulevards, is planted everywhere, but why go on with the list? It seems endless but rather let us make an attempt to direct attention to the many evergreen trees and shrubs, both introduced and native, suitable for Streets and Boulevards. Arbutus Menziesii. This is thc native tree that is most conspicuous in appearance. It is best known as the Madrona in California and Mexico. The fact of seeing it on our streets will at once appeal to those who have travelled; they will realize the mildness of our climate ipso facto. Laurus Nobilis Sweet Bay. This is a tree in the old Douglas Garden 55 years old. Another old tree is in Mr. Gore's garden on Burdette avenue, also in the subdivided grounds of the Trounce Estate in James Bay. In the eastern towns of Canada and the United States the Bay is cultivated in tubs for porch and garden decoration, its hardiness here speaks volumes. Amongst other plants for Streets and Boulevards we would mention:—Portugal Laurel, introduced; Common Laurel, introduced; Tamarisk (for seaside streets), introduced; Bamboo (several hardy kinds), introduced; Juniper (two varieties), native; Juniper (Irish), introduced; Deodar, Cedrus deodara (for wide streets, introduced; Pinus contorts (Scrub Pine), native; Barberry, Ber- beris Darwinii, introduced; Barberry (three varieties, commonly known as Oregon Grape), native; Hollies (in great variety), introduced; Yew, both introduced and native; Manzan- ita, native; Ceanothus (smooth Mountain Balm), native; Evergreen Blue Berry, native; Wild Box (pachysti- ma), native; White Bark Pine. Flexible Pine, (for wide streets, native; Rhododendrons, Laurestinus, introduced and native. For Rock Work—Kinnikinick, native; Periwinkle, introduced. This last is cultivated in pots in the East. For Margins of Ponds—Labrador Tea, native; American Laurel, native. And your committee would recommend that when deciduous trees are planted they should be alternated with evergreen shrubs ancl vice versa. For Parks and Large Grounds—All the coniferous introduced trees, pines, firs, cedars, cypresses and junipers. And amongst our native trees, Douglas Fir, none more beautiful; Balsam is a most noble tree; Cedar; _ DANGER!

Surely with this list of native ancl introduced evergreen trees and shrubs there is no need to plant so many indifferent varieties of introduced deciduous plants, whicii only serve to disfigure the city in the Autumn ancl Winter by littering the paths with fallen leaves. Let us use our hest endeavours to induce the park auth orities to spend more thought al money on our native evergreen platl and to educate the public taste in tl same direction, not only for the rJ son that such plants are beautifi but as a step towards the preser-l tion of many wild plants now in d;| ger of extinction, ancl as an obj| lesson to visitors to our beauti| Evergreen City.

Mrs. Belcher had summoned the Commissioner of Police to show cause why he should not deliver up the pendant to her. Thc claimant said she found the pendant in Mayfair over a year ago and took it to a jeweller to be valued. He handed it over to the police. Advertisements had been inserted in newspapers, but no owner had been found. The magistrate said the woman had had a lucky find, and made an order for the pendant to bc given up to her But he pointed out that if the owner came forward he would have a claim against her. Speak Kindly Elbert Hubbard of the Philistine says: Should the Angel Gabriel come to me and in a confidential undertone declare that a certain man, or any man or any angel was a vilifier of the truth, a snare to the innocent, a pi ferer, a sneak, a robber of grave yards, I would say, "Gabriel, you arc troubled with incipient paranoia —I do not believe a word of what you say. Thc man you mention may not be a saint but he is probably just as good as you or I. In fact I think he must be very much like you, for wc are never interested in either a person or a thing that does not bear some direct relationship to ourselves. Then Gabriel, do you not remember the words of Bishop Be gum, who said that no man applies an epithet to another that cannot with equal truth be applied to him self. When we remember that hoarse gutteral cry of "Away with him,—away with him!" and when w recall that some of the best and noblest men who have ever lived have been reviled and traduced by so- called good men—certainly men who were sincere—how can we open out- hearts to the tales of discredit of any man? Fear of Educated Wife The Duchess of Marlborough gave the students of the Bedford College for Women an interesting picture of the American girl graduate on Wednesday, when she presided over a meeting at Sunderland House in support of the scheme for removing the college from Baker-street to Regent's Park. One hundred thousand pounds is wanted for thc new college, and nearly half tllis sum has been obtained. Thc duchess spoke of the splendid type of college-bred woman which America produced. Men had not found that college-bred girls made less devoted wives and mothers. If women were tactful enough nut always to worst their husbands in argument—(laughter)—and to keep any superabundance of knowledge up their sleeves, there seemed to be little opposition on ti husband's part to his wife being well educated. It was difficult to comprehend why there should be such rooted objection on the part of Englishmen to the higher education of their wives. There must bc some secret fear that, hard as they found it to understand a woman now. it would be absolutely beyond their ken wcre she highly educated. It was certainly not a fact to be proud of that England for want of funds could not provide the training ground required in order to prepare its young women lo enter useful and successful careers. YOU LOVED KB You loved me. The knowledge went through me like wine; The passion that filled me was wholly divine, When you whispered those words, with my head on your breast; Not even my faith could have brought me such rest. All sorrow fell from me and vanished in bliss, When you crushed on my lips that first exquisite kiss. You loved me. Not only your voice told me so; 'Twas your soul that spoke to me in passion's first glow. You crushed me up to you, unheeding your power; Your kisses fell on me like rain on a flower. No human achievement, no worship of men, Can bring me such happiness ever again. You loved me. What odds if your fancy roams free? I know that your life love ls no one but me. It was I who first quickened your soul in your breast. Tho' others may follow, you gave me your best. No woman on earth, be she holy or bad, Can ever take from me what once I have had. Tho' you wound with your folly, you never can kill The love you created—it lives In us still. And when you return and your follies confessed, I'll forget in your arms that you ever trangressed. —Helen Roslyn. FOB OURSELVES Last night I heard a lady at the corner of the street, Who was talking to an audience of men; Her voice was slightly cracked, but, oh! her sentiments were sweet, And her audience applauded loudly when She declared that all the Radicals were lying, craven fools, Who ought not to be In offlce for a day, And she advocated teaching women's suffrage in our schools To the little boys when going out to play. Then she turned upon the Unionists, and said they were as bad, They'd no notion of a woman's mighty brain. And having used up all the cogent arguments she had, She proceeded to enforce them all again. They were not exactly novel, though the emphasis was strong, But I listened patiently to all she said, Till It suddenly occurred to me I'd stayed a bit too long, So I tore myself away and went to bed. But as I lay there pondering the theme, it seemed to me That the case as put before us wns too weak. Tliere are heaps of other matters, where we women ought to be In sole charge, If we had got the chance to speak. We could supplement the Army, and fill up the Navy too; We could certainly administer finance, We could manage all our little Bills, and put them safely through, We could teach our foreign enemies to dance. A Parliament of women would extract the people's cash, If the members weren't too ugly or too old. Though It's true that we might spend It in a manner rattier rash tin official robes of velvet and of gold. Hut nt least we know that In our gowns we should look really nice, Not like things In scarlet robes and horsehair wigs; While as preachers wc could fill the empty churches In a trice, And our congregations wouldn't snore —like pigs. Oh! It will lie Merrle England when we women hnve our way, And can run the British Empire on mir own. You will find some sweeping changes made when once we hold the sway, From the cottage to the mansion and the Throne. But—extend your programme, ladies! llo not merely voting seek! That's a detail; you will realise it when We hnve gained our own omnipotence, but (In a whisper speak), Will it answer if wc quite abolish men? —Madge St. Maury.

He adds by way of postscript that he has not the money now, but that he will have it when claimed. Fire Near Arrow. Lakes A serious bush fire broke out on Thursday near thc Arrow Lakes Lumber Co.'s camps at Galena Bay. Practically the whole of the season's cut of logs, the camp buildings, stores, several log cars and standing timber, and other things were completely destroyed. The cause of the fire was a spark from the logging locomotive and owing to the extreme heat and dryness of the timber the least spark would cause a conflagration. Alpinists Two parties of alpinists are at present in the Selkirks, north of the C.P.R. track, endeavouring to make an assent of Mt. Sandford, the highest of thc many mountains of the Selkirk range.

Dainard, of Golden, taking canoes down the Columbia to Gold Creek, and striking into thc interior from that point. Hurrah For Us Arthur Stringer of New York, the well-known writer of Western stories, recently published a remarkable article about thc American in Canada. We quote the following: A state department report of last December disclosed that the total American investments in Canada had already reached the colossal sum of $226,800,000. This sum was approximately divided as follows: 168 companies, average capital $600,000 $100,800,000 Investments in British Columbia mills and timber 50,000,000 Land deals in Alberta, etc. 10,000,000 Investments in lumber and mines in Alberta 5,000,000 Packing plants 5,000,000 Implement distributing houses 4,000,000 Land deals in British Columbia 2.000,000 Total $226,800,000 The Irrigation Convention At the irrigation convention that will be held at Kamloops at the beginning of August there will be gathered together many men to whom thc subject of irrigation has a keen interest. Hon. Clifford Sifton, chairman of the Canadian conservation commission, has been invited to attend. R, H. Campbell, superintendent of forestry, Ottawa, will be present. Premier McBride and Hon. Thos. Taylor will be in attendance, as will also Martin Burrell, M. P., R. B. Bennett, K.C, and Wm. Pearce of the C. P. R. service, Calgary. Prof. Et- cheverry, of the department of agriculture, university of California, will read a paper on a practical subject and will deliver a lecture in the evening, illustrated by lantern slides. Charles Wilson, K.C, has been asked to read a paper on the new water legislation and there is promise that in point of interest the convention this year will be most successful. There is a marked interest manifested in the event and most of the large irrigation companies will send delegates to the gathering and the various other bodies entitled to representation will send delegates. Although the first convention of the association was held at Calgary only three years ago, thc work of the conventions has shown results and much has been done to advance the principle of irrigation and a closely allied subject, the conservation of water. With respect to the latter, it may be pointed out that at the convention at Lethbridge last year a resolution was adopted covering the east slope of the Rocky Mountains in order to prevent thc deforestation of that, area and the consequent rapid melting of snow at the headwaters of the mountain streams, causing destructive floods and water waste. The government has done as requested in this instance and the result will be the permanent conservation of the natural water supply in that area. At previous conventions certain legislation has been asked for, and other steps taken to secure the advancement of irrigation and a fair apportionment of water to users, with the result that good has come of thc recommendations, for the provincial and federal governments have given evidence that they recognize that when it number of practical irriga- tionists, representing three important provinces, get together and decide that a certain course is advisable, what is in effect expert counsel is being offered ancl thc recommendations carry weight. This year thc convention will havc the working of the new water act under consideration and the work of thc convention in this regard will have its effect with the board of water commissioners who arc carrying out thc provisions of the measure. Altogether, there is promise of the sessions of the convention being replete with interest, not only to British Columbians but to irrigationists in Alberta and Saskatchewan. The visiting delegates will be shown orchards and farms in the vicinity where irrigation has long been practised and others in thc early stages of development. All that is needed to make thc convention the success it should he is a large and representative attendance ancl thc indications point to this want being tilled. Apart from the work of thc sessions, visitors will find Kamloops an attractive city, with the rolling hills, the great navigable waterways and the thousands of acres of valley lands in lhe hands of irrigation companies. It is hoped that every body entitled to send delegates will not fail to participate in this, thc fourth annual convention of the Western Canada Irrigation association.
