VICTORIA, B. C. WtJUUU tXSULXXSJL-iaxXXXXAk Vol. IV. No. 35 THE WEEK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1907 One Dollar Per Annum Mr. E. L. Borden, the I Coast Cities Leader of the Conserva- In Line. tive party in Canada, is just about completing a a campaign which lie inaugurated on the shores of the Atlantic, in the historic City ii Halifax, two months ago, and which ias/ according to competent authorities, voked a degree of enthusiasm never before witnessed in connection with the tour |)f a political leader. AVhatever enthu- iasm may have been manifested in Eastern and Middle Canada, it certainly ulminated at the Coast in a reception of hich any potentate might well be proud, he result has been somewhat surprising lecause Mr. Borden's style and manner ave not been regarded as calculated to nthuse public audiences, lie is delib- ate, somewhat prosaic, with a tendency 0 laboured delivery and with a conspicu- us absence of light and shade in the com- osition of his speeches; in short, he has ttle orno magnetism. It is widely held bat no man deficient in this quality can |e a successful leader of men. Sir John Macdonald, whom men of all parties [illingly concede to be the greatest born ader who has figured in Canadian fairs, had this quality in a remarkable egree. Its possession must also be con- Idedj though in a lesser degree, to Sir rilfrid Laurier. There are, however, her qualities less brilliant, though hard- less effective, which have distinguished .rliamentary and party leaders. Neither resident McKinley in the United States |»r Sir John Thompson in Canada pos- ssed a particle of magnetism. They were th men of the stolid, heavy, unimagin- ive type, and yet they gradually forged eir way to the front and at the termin- ion of their careers were established not ly in the affections, but in the confidence the people. Mr. Borden is a man of I is type; what he lacks in brilliancy he ikes up in sterling character, absolute icerity of purpose, and painstaking ort. Also it may fairly be admitted it since assuming office he has wonder- lly "come on," and at the present mo- ;nt he occupies in the public estimate a sition from which it will bn extremely ficult for any man to dislodge him. He won the public confidence, and has ne to be regarded in exactly the same ht by Canadians as the late Lord Derby s by Englishmen; hc is a ' safe" man. hether or not he is big enough to lead party to victory is another question, Imay, however, be conceded that in Op- iition he has done it well. There is no nmd upon which he is not entitled to )pct the united support and the loyalty every Conservative, and in addition sagacity of his policy and his honesty I purpose are every day securing for him lerents from the ranks of those who :nowledge allegiance to no party. At large meetings which he held in Vic- fa and Vancouver, he was supported on platform by the most influential busi- |s men of the community, men who are actively identified with political life, who realize that the best interests of country are bound up witli a policy lich is the traditional one of the Conserve party, which, as Mr. Borden ewdly pointed out, is imperfectly ad- iistcred by the Laurier Administration, ause they dare not repudiate it. but in EDITORIAL such a reluctant mannej as to clearly demonstrate that it is alien to their instincts. It is not to be wondered at that Mr. Borden's pronouncement upon the attitude of the Conservative party towards the great*industrial and commercial interests of Canada, met with a hearty response. Equally satisfactory was his treatment of the Asiatic question. As a statesman, and the responsible head of a great party, he was emphatic in his defense of treaty obligations, and in his declaration that under any and all circumstances law and order must be maintained, but he was equally emphatic and precise in stating that if he were at the head of the Government he would, in the matter of Asiatic Exclusion, deal with the subject in accordance with the express wish of the conceded by Sir Wilfred Laurier when it suited his purpose, in dealing with another great Provincial issue, '"Better Terms.'' His one argument was that British Columbia should bow to the wishes of lhe Federal Government, whose representations alone should be accepted by the Imperial authorities. The Federal Government cannot blow hot and cold on this matter. The Editor of a great Eastern Liberal paper, who was in Victoria this week, in discussing this question shrewdly remarked: "The work before British Columbia is first to convert Eastern Canada to its views on the Asiatic question. Until the Eastern provinces and the Ottawa Government support the contentions of British Columbia, the demand from the Coast will be as the voice of one crying MB. B. L. BOBDEB Leader of tbe Conservative Party. majority of the people of British Columbia regard less of party. This is as definite as il is wise, and contrasts strikingly with ihe action of Sir Wilfred Laurier in demanding a solid seven as the price of consideration for the interests of British Columbia. The one leader made partisanship a condition, the other ignores it, and concedes the right of the majority to rule. The strongest feature of Mr. Borden's addresses at the Coast has been his conclusive demonstration of thc fact that for the present Asiatic invasion and the trouble which it is making for tlie Province, the Federal Government is entirely responsible. His argument that Canada possessed no natural disqualification for taking a stand which had been successfully taken in other sections of the Empire is unanswerable. It is hardly likely that the Imperial Government and still less likely that the Japanese Government would he influenced by representations from a single Province of Canada when those representations were not supported by the Federal Government. This principle has been in the wilderness." These are weighty words and clearly indicate that Mr. Borden has placed the responsibility where it properly rests, and unless by judicious action the Federal Government takes prompt action this will be the one and only issue on which British Columbians will contest the next Federal election. Mr. Borden lias started on his return journey to the East, lie takes with him the good wishes and the entire confidence of the people of this Province. He has immeasurably strengthened his own position and the pros- perls of the party by his wise and statesmanlike utterances. He lias shown a mastery of the subjects which engross pub- lie attention here, as well as a promptness und definifeness in pronouncing upon them. He leaves behind him capable leaders who will carry out the policy he onl lined, and who beyond the shadow of a doubt will at the next election carry the Conservative colours to victory in that Province by the sea which appears to Sir Wilfred Laurier to be almost a negligible quantity. According to a news item Rampant which appeared in the Exclusionists. Vancouver papers of Thursday, "Those men who have turned the world upsidedown, are coming hither also." Unfortunately, however, their mission, unlike the one to which allusion is made, is not conceived in the best interests of the public. The gang of cheap guys who stand at street corners and hold up the passer by for a fifty-cent contribution to the Asiatic Exclusion League will find no rest for the sole of their feet in the City of Victoria. Everyone sympathises with the desire to prevent Asiatic Immigration into British Columbia, and to preserve it as a "white man's country," but if this means anything, it means the preservation of those ideals which are dear to the white man, and among these must surely be classed respect for the law, and a small measure, at: any rate, of self respect. When men who call themselves white resort to methods which would discredit the intelligence of the Asiatic races which they decry, they cannot be surprised if men who stop to think have their doubts about the sanity of such leadership. Seekers for a little cheap notoriety can always obtain it by pandering, to the lowest instincts of the mob. They are cheap as their price (50 cents) would indicate. They may tack themselves onto the skirts of a great movement, but they cannot be regarded seriously. In any case, the Police authorities of Victoria may safely be trusted to protect the city from an invasion which wrought so much disaster in Vancouver and which Victorians have been educated to regard as something more to be dreaded than an Asiatic invasion. Getting Alarmed. The Directors of the Grand Trunk Pacific are waking up, not so much to a sense of the requirements of British Columbia as to a recognition of their own danger. The AVeek is in receipt of private information to the effect that arrangements have actually been concluded for beginning railway construction on the Pacific Coast, and that the immediate result of the visit of Mr. C. M. Hays and his colleagues, is that this work will be commenced within a month. This is all very gratifying and will bc accepted by the Province at its face value, neither more nor less. Our memories are not short; they go back at least three years, and they recall the fact that in 190-1 Mr. F. AV. Morse declared that he was ready to commence const ruction at once if the Provincial Government acceded to his demands. Thai he did not do so was clearly by an exorcise of what he obviously considered a "divine right." The present determination will not, in the public mind, by any possibility be dissociated from the imminence of a Federal Election nnd the certainty that an application will he made for an extension of time in which to complete the railway. By no possibility can the original charter be complied with within the set time, and it. would be a liitle too raw a proposition, even for the <!. T. P.. in ask for nn extension when they hnd not struck a blow in the Province. Tn the Bill of Indictment whicli British Columbia hns against the Federal Govern: ment not the least important item is their breach of faitl 1 in connection with this scheme. The attitude adopted by Premier McBride has commended itself to every AVostern man. There is little doubt that he will persist in it. The Cnnadinn Xorthern nre now fairly in the field, which is an additional reason why no concession should be mnde to the G. T. P. THE WEEK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1907. Western Society Notes.

This was the first fashionable wedding of the fall of the year and the elite of Ottawa were present as both groom and bride are exceedingly popular. The ceremony took place at 2.30 in Grace church and was certainly the initial matrimonial event of the season autumnal, for the fashionable section of Ottawa. The Bishop of Ottawa, Dr. Hamilton, and grand uncle of the bride, assisted by the Rev. J. F? Gorman, pastor of the church, performed the ceremony. The bride entered leaning on thc arm of her father as the march from Lohengrin pealed forth. Preceding her the ushers, Mr. Hamilton Irwin, Mr. Harry Christie, Mr. Hugh Fraser and Mr. Roy Irwin, passed up the aisle. She looked very girlish and pretty in one of the loneliest of gowns, lt was composed of volumes of lace and Liberty satin. Flowing panels disclosed handsome flounces of Carrickmacross lace worn by the bride's mother on her wedding day. Little jewelled rosettes edged the panels and the bodice was plain emphasized only by a rich festoon of Carrickmacross lace. Her veil was embroidered in a unique pattern with which was worn a chaplet of orange blossoms. She carried a bouquet of white lilies and roses. The bridesmaids looked charming and carried out in their varie-tinted gowns the idea so well. Being in yellow, pink, mauve, pale blue, green with mushroom hats to Inatch it was truly a "rainbow" wedding. Miss Hamilton wore blue. Miss Cotton in pink; Miss White was in green; Miss Gemmill in yellow and Miss Palmer in mauve. These gowns wlere of broadcloth made in long full lines, the bodices had lace lapel bandeaus over the shoulders tapered into the back wdiere long lace sashes were appended. They were finished off with embroidered buttons to match the gown. The whole effect was charming as they followed the bride carrying huge bouquets of lilies-of-the- valley, They also wore the groom's gift, gold brooches, after the design of thc groom's artillery badge with initials A. and G. in pearls. The home of Col. Irwin was beautifully decorated with flowers for the occasion and the array of magnificent wedding presents bore tribute to the popularity of both* bride and groom. Many came from across seas, India, the British Tsles and from our own Pacific and Atlantic coasts. His Excellency Earl Grey presented a diamond and ruby ring. His sister, Lady Minto, sent an exquisite inlaid mosaic writing-pad and paper holder. Lady Sybil Grey sent a pair of silver candlesticks beautifully chased. One could see numerous effects in brass and leather, artistic lamps and fireplace appointments, hand embroideries, linens, pictures and cut glass, several sets of silver and engraved cutlery from groom's parents. The bride presented the ushers with silver card cases. The best man was Capt. Heward of the Quebec Garrison Artillery. After a reception the happy couple left for Montreal and the Adirondacks, where thc honeymoon will be spent. They will reside in Kingston. Her going-away gown was of Royal blue voile with Zouave coat, opening over an exquisite lingerie blouse of hand-worked Indian mulle, a wedding gift, thc coat being finished with a collar of heavy rich lace and with which she wore a French blue felt hat trimmed with different shades of blue and coque feathers.

A Canadian Patent has just been issued, through the agency of Rowland Brittain, Patent Attorney, of Vancouver, granted to N. McPherson, of Vancouver, 011 an improved means for attaching a handle to a logger's cross-cut saw, and the object of thc invention is to facilitate the attachment and removal of this handle. This is done by pivotally connecting to the lower part of the loop by which the handle is secured, a distance pieve of a depth corresponding to the gullet of the teeth, which distance piece has a finger engagement by which it may be laterally withdrawn and is notched to engage the thickness of thc saw blade on which it is tightened by the butterfly nut, which secures the handle to the saw. A Monument of British Enterprise. The remarkable extension of the business of James Buchanan and Co. of Glasgow, the well-known distillers of the "Black and White" and "Red Seal" whiskies, has called for the erection of a new warehouse, and this fine building now stands as a remarkable example of the architect's and builder's art. In this warehouse at the present time 4,000 dozen bottles of "Black and White" and "Red Seal" are despatched daily to all parts of the world. When the extensions of the building are completed this total will be increased to no fewer than 6,000 dozen bottle. In this building are six acres of floor space. The whiskies are kept for ten years at the distilleries and then are sent to the central blending warehouse. Here they arc casked, then vatted, and to secure that choice blending, which is the secret of these brands' popularity, the Whisky is kept in huge vats for yet another four or five months. Air is then pumped into the vats, ensuring a proper mixing of liquids, a method that is without doubt thc best. The vats are of huge size, and the largest will be one holding 20,000 gallons shortly to be erected. There are several vats, too, now being constructed that will hold even more than this amount. At present the vats erected are capable of a total capacity ol" 100,000 gallons. The building being a bonded warehouse is, of course, under the charge of some twenty Inland Revenue officials. Thc name, "Black and White," strange to relate, originated with thc consumer. It was due to Buchanan's placing their whisky in black bottles with white labels. The public found thc quality so good that in order to state what they wanted "Black and White" was asked for. Mr. James Buchanan seized upon this fact and adopted the phrase. It is a remarkable fact that until Mr. James Buchanan commenced blending whisky the spirit was not acceptable to the public taste in any degree. In point of fact, it is only some forty years ago that whisky was blended at all. At the recent opening of this new building of which we have written, Mr. James Buchanan, in accepting a presentation gold key, said that he would cherish it as much as hc did the King's Gold Vase which his horse recently won for him at Ascot. An interesting personality was present at the opening banquet in Mr. W. P. Lowry, who was the first to begin bottling whisky in an Inland Revenue warehouse.—The Tatler. Westward Ho!

Tti__ WJiJiK, SATUK1JAX SJiiMJiJYltSiiK. 20, 1907 Literary Notes. Jack London's new book, "Love of Life," is another instance of his aptness in selecting striking titles for his works. The making of a good title is an art in itself, and no one among living authors has practiced it more successfully than London. In the entire list of his books there is scarcely a poor title, and most of them are wonderfully strong and attractive: "The Son of the Wolf," "The God of His Fathers," "A Daughter of the Snows," "The Children of the Frost," "People of the Abyss," "The Call of the Wild," "The Faith of Men," "The Sea-Wolf," "The Game," "War of the Classes," "Tales of the Fish Patrol," "White Fang," "Moon-Face," "Before Adam," and "Love of Life." These titles not only sound well, but almost invariably they denote the savage, elemental setting in which London places all of his best work. The Doom of the Novelist. "The world," remarked Marion Crawford humourously the other day, "got on for a long time without the novel, and it could very well do so again. The novelist, it seems to me, is headed toward extinction, like the horse whose doom has been sounded by the automobile. I don't mean those who have been run over, either. The horse will probably be preserved in a glass case for posterity; likewise the author. There is still one more chance for the author, and that is for Mr. Carnegie to present a real live one with every library he endows." Historian—"Boy, is this the field upon which the great battle was fought?" Native Boy—"No, zur; that be at the top of that hill." Historian—"Dear, dear! That hill must be quite a mile away!" (Playfully)—"Why ever didn't they fight it in this field?" Boy—"I suppose because this here vield belongs to Varmer Johnson. He never will lend his vields for anything, not even for t' village sports!" Mrs. R. D. Finlayson is home from her honeymoon, and has taken up her residence on Queen's Avenue.

H, ABBOTT. Sept. 21 A. A. McPhail, Agent THE WEEK, SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 1907 I Husic and $ I The Drama. I The New Grand, Victoria. Manager Jamieson is to be congratulated on the company which he has been fortunate enough to secure for the above theatre for the fall fair week. The turn I enjoyed most was that of George Kaine, who comes on as a Dutch Comedian, but he introduces several new turns, particularly a smoke turn. In this he is most clever; he sings and smokes at the same time, and he also catches lighted matches in his mouth. He is good. Fox and Foxie as circus masters are great; the latter is a pony, and their how is as about as good a thing in the way of animal training that I have een for a very long time. Don & Thomson in duologue were exceptionally good. Miss Thomson is a particularly brilliant dancer. "A Ma- rimonial Blizzard," a comedy sketch s presented by Harry Botter & Co., ertainly deserves the applause which t received on the night when I had he pleasure of seeing it. Pope & Knight are both pretty and clever in heir singing and dancing act; their •hange is marvellous. Mr. Shaw has lot been lucky in the song which has icen sent to him, but he made more if it than most men would. The llustrated Pictures arc above the av- ragc. I want to compliment Prof. \Tagcl and his orchestra on their play- ng, and particularly the gentleman ho sits on the extreme right, who ijlays every kind of instrument and n Saturday night appeared in an In- lian wig. Thc sketch that heads the eight big catures on next week's bill is guar- nteed from thc booking office to be bsolutely thc funniest that has ever icen over the circuit. It is entitled The Marriage Fee," and is presented >y Harry First, in the Hebrew char- cter of Jacob Weinstem, a marriage iroker and dealer in lottery tickets, issistcd by Miss Florence Hadley nd Mr. Maurice Frank. Sidney Forester is an English comedian who resents a refined up-to-date act com- rising song, story and character im- ersonations. His imitation of Cheva- er, thc London coster singer, is said be perfect. The Great Earnests ave a bounding table comedy hori- ontal bar act, and are promised to rove the best acrobats that have ayed here. The Mascagnis are liirlwind and fancy dancers. Cora 'homas is a singing soubrette whose ongs and dances are good. Miss 'homas is also thc author of several ood coon songs and will sing next eek her latest success "High Born ociety." The usual stock features nd Prof. Nagel's orchestra make up ie other numbers. antages' Theatre, Johnson Street, Victoria. I was exceedingly sorry to learn lat Mr. Wolfenden had left the above leatre; at the same time I was glad hear that he had left to "better imself." Manager Ormonde is formate in having secured so sym- athetic an accompanist as the lady ho is at present presiding at the iano. The star feature is that of ie Morton-Jewel Troupe, who put up splendid turn in club juggling; it is ie best thing I have seen in this art of the world; and in any other ir that matter. Of course I fell in ve with the little girl, that was only be expected, but her facial distorts were great. The Excela Sis- rs put up a really good sketch en- tled "The Girl in White"; this is ell worth seeing. Mr. Von Hoff as clever an imitator as I havc en in Victoria or Vancouver. The lustrated Song is better than usual id the Moving Pictures are distinct- amusing. FOOTE praising the hospitality of the Irish, after one of his trips to the sister Kingdom, a gentleman asked him if he had ever been at Cork. "No sir," replied Foote, "but I have seen many drawings of it." No drawings or poppings of cork to equal "MUMMS." If you want the purest and best Champagne "MUMM'S" the word.

The Rork Compauy, the new con- ni which is this year exploiting the icccssful musical comedy "Coming hro' the Rye" and the big cxtrava- mza "The Land of Nod," has belli the season most auspiciously, he former production has been crowding the Colonial theatre, Boston, to the walls, at every performance since the opening two weeks ago, and the same condition prevails with "Thc Land of Nod," which started in at the Princess Theatre, Toronto, a couple of weeks ago. Both organizations have received the highest praise from the critics and the universal opinion is expressed that these pieces, which enjoyed such great popularity last year, have never been so thoroughly well presented as now. Frank Lalor and his associates in the "Coming Thro' the Rye" cast, seem to have added fresh vigor and attractiveness to the performance and the new scenery and costumes, which were gotten up specially for the present tour of the piece, have been described as a vast improvement on last season's equipment. It looks now as though "Coming Thro' the Rye" would roll up a greater record in the matter of financial returns than that which distinguished last season's tour, which was admittedly one of the largest, in point of receipts, of the entire season. "The Land of Nod" is being given with the fine equipment of scenery, costumes, and other effects which were specially gotten up for the big New York Theatre production last winter. Thc cast includes Knox Wilson and Ursula March, who played "April Fool" and "The Chorus Girl," respectively, last season and scored immense hits. The remainder of the cast seems to have been very wisely chosen since thc whole performance has met with the hearty favor of the newspaper critics everywhere. The general impression in New York theatrical circles is that these two productions arc destined to go through the season with most gratifying results to all concerned. MOMUS. ST.

A statement which can well be construed to mean "if that company does not do as we wish them to, the people may starve for water, for we will not let them have it." And this in a free British country, A.D. 1907! Needless to say the deal for land was (temporarily at least. suspended, which was no doubt the precise aim of the august head of the corporation. It may, however, be quite in the limits of the possibilities that some day, some person with more money than brains, more stubbornness than wit, will in the silliness of his chuckle-headed folly, take steps to find out under what authority this company pursues such a dog-in-the-manger policy, and in his foolish blundering, he may stumble upon what is technically known as a charter, and who knows but that under this instrument, this very stupid and obstinate person may make things extremely uncomfortable for the concern, which of course would be a pity, as 'tis a pity to disturb any easygoing concern of tyrann:c tendencies and a soft snap.

A gentleman with whom I am well acquainted, and who is a constant passenger on the Victoria- Vancouver boats, complained to me that he was perpetually being asked the names of the various islands, passed en route. He made the suggestion that I should voice his complaint in the public press. Obviously the remedy for this lies in the hands of Tbe Tourist Association. It would not be hard to make out a neat little chart, all the islands could be named, and their different characteristics noted. Such and such an island for sheep; another for poultry; one more for general farming. The expense would be paid for by advertisers both in Victoria and Vancouver. If the I Tourist Association like to give me lthe job, with a list of the islands, I • will guarantee that I can make money [out of the scheme. But, it is up to |them first. What on earth are the Municipal JCouncil of Victoria thinking about Iwhen they allow such an obstruction, las, at the time of writing, exists at lthe Broad street end of Trounce av- lenue? Planks of wood, balanced on Istones, at the entrance to a public Ithoroughfare should be labelled with la red light, as on a dark night such Ian obstruction constitutes a public ■danger. The same thing applies to ■that portion of the sidewalk imme- Idintely below the Dominion Hotel. IThe unwary pedestrian could easily ■break his neck there. Night time in IWestern Canada is not famous for lits walkers; people who take in both Jsides of the road at once are liable Ito hurt themselves at this place, and ■when all is said and done, though the (authorities are not supposed to en- Icourage such habits, yet they must ■remember that it is these very same (people who spend good money in Itheir town. Also it must be remembered that there is a well proved pro- Iverb, which tells us that "Providence plways looks after drunken men and phildren," and I don't see why the "ouncil can't follow the habits of Providence. There are many worse pxamples. I saw Mr. Palmer, Detective-Ser- teant, the other day; I am glad to lay that it was on my business, and lot on his. I am not an anti-Asiatic ly any means, but I do object to be- ng awakened at seven o'clock in the noming by a Chinaman hitting a tong. I am quite prepared to admit ■hat I am a crank on the subject of loise; my friends have told me time |nd time again that this is so; it is Jrobably the fact. I have been told hat this dislike of noise in the morn- ng is the result of a guilty conscience, don't dispute that, either; nobody Icith any sense would come out here |nless he had one. In sizing things up, however, the thinaman is no worse than the Chris- pan. We hear a lot in stories about he bells "pealing merrily," but as matter of fact they are an abom- hable nuisance. What good are they? Do you honestly think that they bring Inybody to church who wouldn't lave gone anyway? I don't know low often you have heard the same lords; I know that I have heard them 111 I am sick of them: "Oh, is that lie little bell; I must hurry or else le shall be late (well it depends on lie relationship as to whether she juts in the "dear" or not). And the lurry takes about half an hour. What ■ith making up her mind as to match- |g plum-coloured skirts with pink bse, and other necessary details, lere is no getting away with her lorn the house. And where does the Jiurch bell come in? Simply a noise Ihich might well be done away with. 1 know that in all my long experi- nce, about seventy-five next month, I have never yet met a person who ks gone to church just because the Is were ringing. I have already written on the subject of impoliteness, or incivility. Of course it is only a matter of breeding, and in the Old Country the way in which the smart young men of this country treat their lady friends would simply be called "damned bad form." It is largely the fault of parents; they spoil their children till there is no getting them to do what they are told; the said children get work for themselves at about twelve and are independent at fifteen. This is absolutely immoral. If people are going to enjoy the luxury of getting married they should be made to see that their children are turned out as ladies and gentlemen. This is not hard; there is no need for high birth, or any rot like that; I know that all the blackguards I ever met, have been from the tall-hat arrangement, and that I have met more true gentlemen, that is "Nature's Gentlemen," in the class which we most erroneously call the lower class. And yet I am not a Socialist; not a bit of it. It always gives me a glow when I hear the National Anthem; I have the greatest respect for the House of Lords. But there is some inherent deficiency in a certain class of people. As a rule the higher a man or woman, though this is rarer, is in the social scale, the more courteous they are to all the folks they meet. The cheap man, who probably sells matches on the quiet, and pretends to own a house in Park Lane, is the one who thinks it is part of his business to be rude to the people whom he has the gall to imagine are his inferiors. Well, he can go on thinking, for in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred the inferiority comes in on the other side. It is a funny thing that Victoria for the most part advertises itself; at least in The Sunday Colonist; but when the fall fair comes along there is a great lack of the same advertising. I do not refer to the newspaper part of it; Mr. Smart, the excellent manager of the fair, looks after that. But why is there no public advertising in the way of flags and signs? A gentleman came over from Vancouver on Wednesday whom I knew; I asked him if he had been up to the fair, and he replied that he had heard that there was going to be a fair soon, but he didn't know that it was on now. These remarks are uttered, or rather printed, in the interests of the City, by one who firmly believes that the present Mayor by his action in prohibiting "The Owl" banner and that of "The Merchants' Picnic" from being displayed across the street has proved detrimental to the city. afa trtvUftsr.

Seattle is a big city, and may some day be a great one. Although residing in this Province more or less for ten years, I made my first acquaintance with the commercial Capital of Washington this week. Thc delay has been due to a deep-rooted prejudice against those bizarre American methods which are popularly supposed to achieve tlieir apotheosis in Seattle. A very brief acquaintance dispelled thi' idea that this important city is in any sense fairly represented by the cheap tourists who flock to Victoria during thc season. In a whole day's ramble round thc citv I saw fewer than one may encounter on Government street, Victoria, any afternoon during July and Atibust between the arrival and the departure of the boat. The majority of Seattle people seem to be intent on their business and on improving their city. To deal with the people first. The type is distinctly superior to that which predominates in Chicago or Minneapolis. There is less vulgarity and less ostentation. Everybody seems to have money and plenty nf it, the best restaurants are frequented by people who in ordinary cities would be content with the second or third rate ones. Men whose features and style bespeak plainly humble origin are well dressed and able to indulge in all the luxuries of the season. If there is much refinement in Seattle it is careful ly hidden away, the stamp ni' commercialism is upon everything, and men, and tint a few Women pursue the quest with a zeal and persistency unsurpassed in any other eity. Courtesy is met with everywhere, and the visitor who is prepared to pay will meet with every consideration. Large fortunes have been made very rapidly, especially in real estate, ami trade, at thc same time it is satisfactory tn find that many men who came tn Seattle twenty years ago penniless, are today wealthy and influential, they have made their fortune hy steady industry. 1 was particularly impressed with the attitude of the people in the Grand Theatre, and after carefully studying the situation, am satisfied that the occasion furnished an admirable test of the character and viewpoint of thc community. First, as tn the appearance of the audience. In a packed house, there were hundreds nf ladies richly dressed. I saw gorgeous silk and satin cloaks, which could not havc cost less than $100 each; they were there in profusion. Every lady came to the theatre in a hat, and the display of millinery was something startling and impressive. Of course the hats were removed before the performance began, but not before the on-looker was treated to a startling display of millinery. How they were stowed away I cannot imagine, for there was barely room for my modest bowler under the seat. The ladies' dresses were all light and elegant, but all high, which gave an afternoonish effect. Few of the men were in evening dress, although the occasion was not a usual one, but most of them wore black morning coats. The audience was obviously joyous and light- hearted, whilst there was no unseemly noise, there was abundance of chat and a prevailing spirit of happiness. Thc lady who sat next to me was exquisitely dressed and must havc be- longed to one nf the best families in the city; she was accompanied by her husband, and I was not a little amused as well as pleased to notice her joyous excitement at the whole performance, but what amused me most was that quite audibly and sweetly she sang a vocal accompaniment to all the operatic airs played by the orchestra. I was greatly impressed with the prompt recognition by the audience of every good point and of every lofty sentiment. The applause was not only unmistakable but prolonged, and in this respect there was far more enthusiasm and appreciation than I have ever noticed in a Canadian audience. It speaks well for the future of Seattle, for people of this type will mould public opinion along healthy channels and will not tolerate low public standards. I am sorry to say that I was not as favourably impressed with the eity as with the people, although great allowances must be made for the fact that Seattle is forging ahead by leaps and bounds, and that the population is growing faster than it is possible for the authorities to develop the city itself. There are some splendid blocks which would not be a discredit to New York or Philadelphia. At present these are cheek by jowl with shacks of the pioneer days. The streets with few exceptions, leave much to be desired, and the irregular contour of the land makes it extremely difficult to lay them out properly. Roughly speaking, Seattle consists of a low bench flanking Puget Sound, and a series of ridges and hollows running parallel with it as you travel inland. The problem of crossing these ridges has been cleverly solved by the institution of cable tramways which climb gradients literally as steep as the roof of a house. The cross streets and avenues intersected by the cable ways run more or less on a level, and arc served by an ordinary car system. I took a run out as far as Lake Washington, easily the most charming residential suburb. Here immense hills are being levelled and picturesque residences are being erected, and before many years the terraced hillsides along the shores of this beautiful lake will be dotted with residences. At present everything is in a rough unfinished state, but thousands of men ;'inl hundreds of horses are grading st eels levelling hillocks, cutting trenches and performing all the thousand one necessary works to convert a wilderness into a well laid out and populous city. Seattle presents an interesting study at the moment. Its growth is phenomenal; good judges claim that today it contains at least _'50,ooo people, which means that thc population has doubled in four years, and quadrupled in less than ten. Seattle was made by thc North, the rush to the Yukon and afterwards to Alaska, gave the impetus which has carried it forward to a state unapproach- ed for activity and prosperity by any American city except Chicago. The North has only just begun to move, and while Canadian cities will reap enormous benefits from thc development of Northern British Columbia, tin close observer can doubt that Seattle will benefit four-fold and that it is destined to become the greatest city on the Pacific Coast. It is only fair to say that I looked in vain for any evidences of that lawles spirit which is popularly supposed, at any rate in Canada, to be representative of Seattle. There is as in every large sea port a tough element, but it is very much less to the fore than a few years ago, and a healthy public opinion controlling and directing men of substance and influence, who are determined that their city shall have a great future, Mil do its best to keep lawlessness in check. On the whole I was more pleased than otherwise, but at the same time saw nothing in the conditions or surroundings which would suggest that Seattle will attract any except for the purposes of commercial enterprise. J$lh/-e_rp4^/»'. f Royal Agricultural Fair. The Royal Agricultural and Industrial Society's big annual fair at Queen's Park, New Westminster, opens next Tuesday and given good weather thc five days of the exposition promises to find the largest crowd ever out at the park. For weeks past Manager W. H. Keary and his efficient staff have labored hard to bring together the finest collection of exhibits of the field, orchard and mine, and the district displays will surpass, both in number and general attractiveness, even those shown during the Dominion Exposition. In the Industrial building more space than ever has been required and this year a portion of the upstairs, formerly devoted to the Educational Exhibit will be given up to industries. Many handsome booths, costing over $500, have been installed and the scene that will greet the eye of the visitor in thc Industrial building will far surpass anything heretofore attempted. There is to be plenty of music during exhibition week, as besides the Vancouver Regimental band, the New Westminster band, several up-country musical organizations will be in attendance. Balloon ascensions, championship lacrosse games and athletic sports will form a portion of the daily programme. The entries for stock will be larger than ever. The grounds have been put in excellent condition and the work of the landscape artist has done much to beautify the park. The programme of the fair will be as follows: Saturday, Sept. 28—Lacrosse game, Maple Leafs vs. New Westminster, first match of tournament and a scheduled match of the B.C.A.L.A.; concert. New Westminster band. Monday, Sept. 30—Exhibitors' day; final arrangements completed for installing various exhibits', stocks placed in sheds; visitors rigidly excluded. Tuesday, Oct. 1—Lacrosse game, Vancouver vs. Tecumsehs, second game of tournament; balloon ascension; concert, New Westminster band. Wednesday, Oct. 2—Scotchmen's day; athletic sports on oval; balloon ascension; Scottish concert in evening at opera house; concert at park, New Westminster band. Thursday, Oct. 3—Citizens' day; lacrosse match, losing teams of first and second games of tournament; balloon ascension; concerts, Vancouver Regimental and Vernon City bands.

What primeval instinct warns the small boy's brain when he wakes some frosty morn that this day marbles or catapults are in season. But as surely as winter follows autumn and night day at the same time each year he resurrects his tops and buttoned string, and groups of fascinated youngsters gather nbout the mystic circle in the oand and the magical coloured balls. As the weeks advance game supplants game with as persistent a certainty as the solstices. In more desultory fashion the small girl turns to skipping ropes and hopscotch, but she is by no means so conservative as her brother. She is guided by her own inclinations. I do not know why marbles should not be played in summer time, but I feel assured that the small boy to whom it was suggested would be absolutely shocked. The truth is that there is a distinct sameness about the human male. One may trace it through childhood and adolescence to senility. It is particularly noticeable in his affairs of the heart. The invariable blindness and fatuousness of the love lorn youth are a source of sympathetic and tolerant amusement for the spectator. It may sound like heresy to say so, but men are generally more susceptible and sentimental than women, /ll young men arc, in a greater or less degree, conceited, if only of their lack of conceit. Observe one of the results. A youth, an average youth let us say, is thrown into the society of a charming maiden. Now in the first place propinquity is the only really successful match-maker, and as everyone knows more marriages evolve from week ends at country houses than from any other known cause. We need not search far for the reason. He can see as much as he will of the maiden, who makes herself tolerably agreeable. His conceit does the rest. It will not permit him to imagine that she is unattracted by his graces. She seems so interested that he is sure she is adoring. He naturally loves admiration—most of us do. The love that he imagines in her breast awakens love in his. He tells her some starlight night that his soul and hers are one, to wit, his. And he probably discovers that both her soul and her heart are her own, and thereupon declares that all women are flirts and jilts. Not so. The silly boy has wantonly blinded himself. Girls are naturally nice to men, sometimes when ever actively disliking them. But they have a very practical sentiment in such matters. They bear with his egotisms and accept his attentions very much as a matter of course. They do the same for the next average young man, as the swain might readily observe. But they do it generally with perfect innocence and without after-thought. It had not occurred to them that young men fell in love, so called, with such promptness. As a matter of fact he is most likely in love with the gratification of his desire for approbation, but in his first affair he does not know the difference between the genuine article and the counterfeit presentment. Girls are not so readily deceived. When they are in love they know the state of their heart and their affections are steadfast. I do not mean to say that these things are true of every man and every woman—we all have known exceptions. But in judging the average of both sexes and of my own particularly any observer will agree with me. The other day I received a letter from a friend suffering from his first attack. He loved his Angelina, of that there was no shadow of a doubt at all. But in addition to being in no position to marry her he was not at all sure how much she really cared for him. After many mental struggles he had come to the sage conclusion that women were an enigma that he did not understand. Unfortunately I felt myself quite as incapable of telling him whether Angelina loved him as of solving his enigma to his satisfaction. But I was cruel enough to suggest that while he was waiting he might do worse than determine whether he was so irredeemably in love with Angelina, and whether he was not quite capable of varying the direction of his affections in the course of six months. Was it very exasperating of me, do you think? I felt that I was doing the right thing because in matches that are to be purely love marriages and nothing more, the first and last essential is love. In the still of the early mornings the intermittent boom of a distant fog-horn drones in upon my slumbers. In the night the mist steals up in stealthy frightened fashion from the sea, half afraid to climb over the cliffs and venture inland. As the sun warms it floats back, like a shy mermaid, to its ocean home, but it leaves each cobweb strung with tiny tears and has hung the trees and the grass with them. And back it creeps again the night after, as if it found that the sea grew cold for a bed, and the moon mist rises in ghostly shapes from the low- lying meadows. It all whispers that the winter days are coming fast. Winter is nature's nighttime, and we have the sensation a little akin to fear which the night gives. We do not quite understand. It is mysterious and a thought uncanny. O'er the brows of the world winter-like death counterfeiting sleep "with leaden legs and batty wings doth creep." But in day time, as in summer, thc joy of living slips into the blood, and we feel masters of our own fates. What a perpetual pleasure it is to a household to have there a happy, cheerful soul. The presence of such an one affects the very walls and furniture of the rooms, and to come into the place whence such an individual has a moment gone is to carry to our senses some touch of the joy. For walls and chairs, floors and ceilings are recipients of your moods, phonographic records of the lives of those who live in the house. On entering a home one often gets a queer sensation of depression or joy, a feeling of the atmosphere of the place. Cheerfulness is perhaps at the first a matter of temperament. But anyone can train the disposition so that cheerfulness may sit in the seat of honour in the brain and by habits of happiness brighten our own lives, and perhaps some others. It is worth while, too—everything is that teaches people that the world is not the sad old place they think, the place of trials and tribulations where they must suffer and sorrow and will find neither the justice nor reward which they reserve for heaven. The world is a place for enjoyment, and let us enjoy. It may be virtuous to fold one's hands and receive humbly the sorrow that we almost invite to visit us, but I fancy the person who stands square shouldered to the universe, who expects his rewards and his punishments for a great part here below, who takes things as they come and makes the best of everything. He knows that "gnarling sorrow hath less power to bite the man that mocks at it and sets it light" and does more genuine good than many humble sinners. Sometime and somewhere I have seen an extract which rings true. I wish I could find it again, but I cannot. "Gentleness" it ran—"Gentleness and cheerfulness, these come before all morality; they are the perfect duties. If your morals make you dreary depend upon it they are wrong. I do not say give them up, for they may be all you have; but conceal them like a vice, lest they should spoil the lives of better and simpler people." "ALittle Knowledge, Etc." Last week an English newspaper, translating from a French contemporary, said "the Goolds had an accomplice, a woman whose name the journal ignores." What should have been written was "a woman of whose name the journal is ignorant," but the translator was misled by the seeming familiarity of the French word ignore. Similarly the French transaction is generally rendered by the same word in English instead of by "compromise." On the other hand, the French take their revenge by translating, for example, Mr. Crockett's "Stickit Minister" as "Un Ministre Assassine"! "Face the Music." There are several theories concerning the origin of the slang phrase, "Face the music." It is said to have come from the army. One of the difficulties in training horses for the military service was that of getting them to face the regimental band without getting excited. Another authority says also that it is of military origin, but that it was applied to soldiers when they were drummed out to the tune of "The Rogue's March." Still another version is that it is used by actors behind the scenes when preparing to go on the stage to face the music literally. A quarryman was charged with assaulting one of his mates, and when the case was carried into court, an eye-witness of the occurrence gave some curious evidence. "He tuk a pick an' he tuk a pick," the witness began, "an' he hit him wid his pick, an' he hit him wid his pick; an' if he'd hit him wid his as hard as he hit him wid his, he'd have near killed him, an' not him him."

The latest annual catalogue of The Macmillan Company, which has just been issued, has been prepared in accordance with a new plan that gives it more than passing value. It is arranged on the plan of a dictionary, author and subject entries following one another in one alphabetical list. The catalogue contains a complete list of all books published by this company which are still in active demand, and it is especially valuable because these include the more important publications issued in the last fifty years or more by a number of the largest English publishing houses. It is announced by the publishers that the total number of titles is nearly six thousand and that about twenty- eight hundred different authors are represented. The wide range of subjects covered by the publications of this one house is shown in the list of Subject Headings, which is given for the convenience of librarians. This list is arranged in conformity with the decimal system of classification used by the American Library Association. No subject is included which is not represented by at least three books, and it is therefore surprising to find that the Association's list of Subject Headings is practically complete, covering all the main divisions of the decimal system, and all the sub-divisions with a few unimportant exceptions. As an example of the ground covered, the general subject of Sociology is sub-divided into the headings of General Sociology, Commerce and Trade, Industries, Political Economy, Political Science, Law, Municipal Affairs, Charities, Woman, Education, Folk Lore, Costume; and each of these is further sub-divided into from two to six minor headings. Among the famous series and editions included are the Aldine and Globe poets, the Bohn Libraries, The Citizen's Library, the English Men of Letters Series, the Eversley Series, Arber's English Reprints, The Golden Treasury Series, Macmillan's Pocket Classics and the Temple Classics. A library of three or four thousand volumes not only for general reading but even for research and reference in many special subjects, made up exclusively from this catalogue, would show surprisingly few lacunae. After many delays the second volume of the new Library Edition of the Poems of William B. Yeats will be published September 18. It will be recalled that the first volume, containing Mr. Yeat's lyrical poems, appeared about a year ago. Volume II. contains his dramas in verse, and includes in addition to those already published, but not easily accessible, the drama "Deirdre," which was first produced in Dublin last winter, and has never appeared in print. Among the interesting announcements for fall is one to the effect that Agnes and Egerton Castle will have a new book ready—"My Merry Rock- hurst." The Castles are known as rapid workers, yet it is more than two years since their last book, "If Youth But Knew," was published. As they have for many years been among the authors whose works are assured in advance of popularity, it may be that the long interval will have served to whet the appetites of their readers.
