Afte-r paying a vi.it of inspection to the Bhingle mill, with which be expr**s**B*"otj his entire satisfaction,Mr. Chew-began hir* arrangements leading up to the operations of the company for the summer. In conversation with Mr. Chew, The Drill man learned that the company would proceed as soon as possible wish the erection of the big: lumber ami planing mill, whieh will occupy tho ground near tbe bluff. The old mill at (lie head of the lako will cut the material for the new mill and other buildings, whieh will, of course. take some time to do, Tho compuny nil] ais-.j oreet a largo stable for their numerous stock; a much larger building for office purposes; and later on a number of cottages for their several employees.

This year the celebration had to lie held on tin.' day previous.Snliirilay. and right loyally was tho occasion honored. In the morning tbe hat was passed around and about 160 gathered ih for prize money, In the afternoon the children formed in procession, headed by the band, and parad d the principal streets, after whieh the general sports were held. The fun was witnessed by a large concourse of people, and the proceedings were enlivened bv selections from tin" band. 1). S. McVannel, Bob Allen, Billy Davidson, Larry Knowies and Chief Armstrong had charge of the sports. The winners iu the various events were as follows, in order as named: Footrace, girls under 12 Mabel Hall, Fannie Robert mertson, M. Bonish 1 and eiicum-tau'.vs will permit. In the fulliltnent of all these plan-. it ean ba seen there* will Ik? a small army of men employed, particularly SO as all the buildings an* to bo finish - ed,if pos6iblo,this fall. In tho m*atntime the force at ihe shingle mill is to be increased, and the iila nt ruu to its full capacity. Mr. Chew Btnted the headquarters of the company would b onee establish**-*! hero and all operations conducted from this end. He I'oit'. rated former atsJ-sertion'" that local men and merchants would bo given' tht* preference in every particular, though the company would naturally conduct their affniraou strict busin ;- principles. A difficulty is exporienc id ai present ia getting meu to i'll lh" several positions at the Bhingle mill and the company are anxious to complete their complement at onoe. Thoy state they are Offering even a higher rate of wages than those prevailing on th:1 coast. Coming to another important matter relative to the company's dealings with the citizens, Mr. Chew stsii.il the concern was now in a position t.i live up to its verbal agreement made at the outset, to give any aud all local people so desiring, the privilege to acquire stock in the enterprise, i'he company is capitalized at 9100,000, in IJ100 share i, and thc citizens could i subscribe at par value of the shares. Suffice it to say that in the east the stock can ix* sold abovo par, but the company bo far has Ih'pu a close corporation' and they claim no outsiders will br allowed in on (he same basis as offered here. The company courts the fullest investigation into their affairs and auy information desired will V freely given. A number of citizens havo expressed their intention of investing and they will doubtless realize handsome!',' ou their venture. It is th • company's aim to to wor!; amicab- Iv with the p'.oph' her.*, having the desire to do al! in their power tor tbe advancement of th" city, As Mr, Chew stated, the companv are bere and they Intend to stay, aud they wish to be considered in all things part and parcel of the lifs* of Slocan. In conclusion, Mr.Ghow stated tbat it was most unfortunate tlmt tbo arrangements between the .corporation and the companv regarding the mill- site had not yet been fully completed. That tin1 delay had been unavoidable, he could readily understand, bul it would be a Boutce of satisfaction to the directors when the matter was dually settled. The company, while feeling confident of (he ultimate completion of the deal With the city.u;'\\'(",•- theless desired to have all the details of ths site settled beforo carrying to the lull their plans for the erection of the remainder of their plant.

However, to rel urn 10 business, I see clearly enough where all lliis Is tending. Tbe papers "-peak only {-o result which the young woiiinn herself had but dimly foreseen when sbe bad spoken of It in so absolutely horrible at to extinguish the virtue of politeness altogether. The story wns told from fifty points of view, and ever tbe stately and beautiful figure of Brenda Maclane moved through It like a stage ghost, having a carefully wrought effect of Intanglbleness and transparency, yet steadfastly attended by the calcium light. No one accused Brenda of the smallest wrong, no oue ventured to Identify her with the "mysterious woman" seen by Dr. Blair, yet with great cleverness tbe plot was so arranged tbat Brenda's figure in tbe ghostly light Btssod best displayed upon the very spot where the mysterious one seemed to have sunk out of sight as if Into a grave. "Brenda, my child, what shall we do?" exclaimed Mr. Maclane, and he extended toward his daughter two trembling hands that were full of newspapers. •Dor' snld Bnn>"n. "About what?" "The papers are Crowded with it!" he groaned. "Look at this! Look at ths-*-,. pictures!" "Well, I think this one ls rutlu-r good of me," replls*d Brenda. "I wonder where they pot the photograph. Oh. but see Mr. Aldeu! They've made blm look like tbe pirnte Kidd." "You seem to take no serious view of this!" he cried. "Father, wby should we?" she replied earnestly. "Here Is a dear little girl that bas escaped a drs'iidi'iil peril. and I am so glad of It, so religiously, prayerfully glad of lt. that this publicity affects me not tlie least" "I tblnk you have lost your wits, Brenda," said be. "Why, you're all mixed up In It. They practically accuse you of going to that house"— "I did go there," replied Brenda. "I mean before the deed-at the very moment of It"— "Let me see." said Brenda. who was already scanning the reports. "I don't see anything here that Isn't true. They are much fairer to Mr. Allien tban I "77i3 in nny line of action If he Is guilty, we must not apiK-ar as his accomplices after the fact." "That Is monstrous," Insisted Brenda. "Do not consider It." They spoke for some minutes of minor matters, turning over the |i:i;ra rs together, while Brenda selected sucb portions as she thought thnt Dr. Kendall might permit Klsie to .•<****. The af-lf:lit of these stories with tbs'ii nlinn- dam illustrations set Mr. Machine*! never, on edge ng.iln, and lio was In it most wretched frame of mind when he left the hospital lt cbanced that as he emerged from the structure be encountered Alden. who had Just come from KenilaU's ro'im nnd was full of good will io nil mankind as the result of the convers'i- tton with the doctor. He felt that Maclane had n Just grievauce against hiin. aud he began at once a most earnest attempt to repair the injury. Maclane was relieved to fiud Alden in a pilant mood—the rarest of all ills moods, by the way—and the two walked toward thu avenue together In on atmosphere of cordiality such as surrounds sometimes the unfriendly victims of a com- nis.n misfortune. t'pon arriving at his office Alden met Detective Klmeudorf, with tbo result already disclosed. Profiting by the advice received In the course of tills interview nnd by his memories of many Stories of crimes, criminals and sleuth- hounds of the Inw, Alden succeeded In eluding both tho shadow of "trouble" oud the shadow of "business," aud bis doings for ou hour or two were wholly unknown to the police. At 8 o'clock he appeari'il at St. Winifred's hospital, where he was Informed by Dr. Kendall that Elsie would receive blm presently. At thnt moment Elsie wns conQdiug to Brenda her opinion thnt Mr. Aldeu would suffer a grievous disappointment "He won't expect to see me like this." she said. "I look like death's hend on a handspike, as my cousin Billy says. Billy was In the navul reserves during the war nnd prevented the Spaniards from capturlug New York, but that's another story. I Brenda, If 1 should put on Just 11 little bit of rouge— I don't want to frighten j him." "Y'ou don't wnnt to think of rouge : for ten years," replied Brcndu. "And I besides, my dear, you haven't any. Moreover, he won't know how you look; bo will be too glad to see you alive." "Of course you think I nm very trivial and absurd," Bald Elsie, "1 ut do you realize that he may not see Uie again? No one can kuow precisely how I am hurt. This wound may ba' nearer to a vital spot than Dr. Kendall suspects or will tell. A break of a wall as tbln as paper, a little blood spilled bere beneath my band, aud 1 am gone In a moment. Perhaps touight: perhaps oven while be sits bere beside me. And tbls last sight of me will bo tbe memory be will carry as long aa he livs's. 1 want tt to blot out tl.e face of every other girl that he will s'ver see." "'lheu don't blot out your own with . the contents of a rcige pot," snisl ' Brenda. "Hark! They aro coming \\ aloug the corridor." She stepped to the door aud ushered In Alden and Kendall. Alden bud the pale, set face of Nathan llale going to execution. As often bnppeus with a man Jfo strenuously prepared, his eyea failed to focus, nud lie stai.'i) for a moment nt Elsie without really seeing her. Dad she been the wasted and pitiable object that his Inexperience led blm to expect he would probably have borne tbe sight of her with great fort Itu ale. but wben her face emerged from the mists of Imperfect vision precisely Elsie's, with every well remembered attribute of beauty, lt was an attack upon an unprotected spot in his defenses, and every drop of blood lu his body cried out with the voice of ono great sob, I "Tbls Is what I wns nfrnld of." muttered Kendull. "Confound hlm! I knew he'd brenk down." Ho glanced uneasily at Elsie, bul she seemed quite calm. She extended her [ band toward Alden, and hu kissed It, falling on his knees beside the bed. 1 "Y'ou must uot feel sorry for tin-." said she. "I am very comfortable, a ud I waste no time In pitying myself. It j was very kind of you to send the vln ; lets." "Dear little girl." he snid. still kneel* I Ing. "every minute of my life shnll be yours to mnke this right." "You are not to speak that way." replied Elsie, with that manner which •accompanies long considered words. "You have your own lifo to lensl. You must not spoil lt for me." Alden's face was gray with anxiety as ho looked Into Elsie's. "Don't say we have gone back; tbat It's all like lung ngo," he began. Hut the warning eye of tho vlgilnnt Ken* dnll, who had softly stepped to tho head of tbe bed. upon the other sid>i, checked this plea. Alden writhed witb tho effect, but his will held blm. "1 mustn't worry you," he said; tben, with balf an eye on Kendall: "Elsie. Who did this? Tell me, little girl." "I don't know; really I don't," she answered. "Why do you thluk that 1 do?" Again tbe doctor silently protested, and Aldeu took heed. "I had not beard It from you," he said. "But let us put It out of our minds. What can I do for you? Is there anything you need? We will hold a conference on the subject" "Brenda would get me anything lu the world," replied Elsie. "She has been as good as two mothers to me. Brenda, what do I want?" "Rest and tin s'asy mind and your real mother as soou as she can corns'," replied Brenda. "As to Mr. Alden's contribution, I would suggest a pretty picture or two to put on the walls. They would relieve the eye. Elsie has* asked for Tantalus, but the art committee, consisting of Dr. Kendall and myself, refuses to hang him." "The art committee Is all right." said Aldeu. "1 shall submit some pictures to lt with confidence." < Thus tho talk drifted from topics too exciting, and some minutes ws-re spent pleasantly and conventionally enough. Then, as Alden was about to take bl* leave, Elsie suddenly began tn wi'i»| ' very bitterly and without nppan nl cause, for It was a parting for a feu hours. To Brenda sfterwanl she said ' in explanation, "To think tbat I might have died and never have seen hiin aguiu!" As ilie matter seemed to involve ihe health of the patient nnd certainly lhe regulation of Mr. Alden's visits, Brenda consialered herself bound to report the remark to Dr. Kendall. "It Is all very mysterious to me." snid be. "She loves him with her soul ami body, but she believes that it is nil over." "She will not always think so," replied Brenda. "That may be true," he said, "but I think I know her, nnd, so thlnkin?, I hope my own wedding won't have to wait for theirs." "Your wedding!" exclaimed Brenda ln surprise. "I did not know It was arranged." "Of the three persons most intimately concerned In It." he replied, "two nre already to be counted upon — myself and the clergyman.

N tho following morning Captain Neale appeared at SL Winifred's, demanding an Inter- \\ lew with Elsie. Kendall had succeeded In rs'fuslng a similar demand upon the previous evening and would have been glad to do It again, f..r he dreaded Neale ln a sickroom ns If be had been the angel of septlcii'inla, but the doctor could not honestly spy that Elsie's condition wns such as to justify him lu shielding ber from all questioning. As for the captain, he was "up ngninst a new game," to use his own expression. Never before bad be been held back from the bedsides of tbe nf- fllcted In Institutions wholly or partially uniler municipal coutrol, and doubtless upon Ibis accouui then* were fortunate souls in paradise wbo might Otherwise Still have been struggling In this probationary state. When Kendall demurred, Neale strong1 y intimated that he would "make tronble" for the doctor, but ii was his own conscience nnd not bit fears Which decld- sal Kendall's action, •"1 ou can see her," be said, "If you will behave yourself." Aud Neale was speechless In the pres ence of tbls audacity, it was not that Neale was a captain of police, for such au officer may or may not amount to a row of pins; It was thnt be was Joe Neale, the man with a "pull." Therein lay the terror of bis wrnth. Kor as well as Elsie could be prepared for tbls Interview she shuddered and tnrned pale wben ber eyes first rested upon tbe peculiar, grimacing countenance of tbe captain, more dls- t-i'SA-'Ing than usual at that moment because he was trying to look beneficent Neale had a singular delusion that he could be nnd seem to be all things to all people, although, in fact, his voice, his face and his manner wero more rigidly Incapable of disguise thnn those of "tiy other mnn bet wen the two oceans. He hnd a monkey's pride In Im- lift linn without n trace of the monkey's capacity for It, nnd upou this occasion he *vni engaged In counterfeiting the demeanor of a family physician because ho knew that Kendall did not believe he could do It And It wns his expresses! conviction afterward that he Inal made the doctor "feel foolish." "Oosid morning," said he. "'jlftd to see you looking so fine. You'll be out in ■• week, and by the lirst of the month you'll be throwing WISSsSS over the footlights again." Elsie's forehs"i'l reddened wltb wrath, nnd she opened her mouth to pay something ibat wonld have shown in.ne spirit than discretion; hut. catching lli.'iida's eye. she suddenly closed her lii's lightly.

Tben the captain drew up a chnlr to the side of the bed. upmi the i edge of which be laid his enormous nnd hairy band, clinched, with the knuckles uppermost Elsie looked at ' it. fascinated, wondering If It could really be a hand. I "We got to have a little light en this ' woman." sold the cnptnln. "What woman?" Inquired Elsie faintly. "The one wbo called on you that afternoon." be replied. "Miss Miller has already sold"— Ken- 'all began, but the captain lifted his hand from the bed, thereby causing one side of It to rise suddenly, and nioile a gesture of protest "She'll do the onswering." he said. "Who says that any woman called ', in me?" demanded Elsie. "Now. don'l gel excited." responded ; He captain "It's well km>wu that ! somebody was there. Dr. Blair saw Uir leaving the house." I Rlsle remained silent for a moment i^'.'ien she said: 'There might have been fifty women leave tbe bouse and I know nothing nbout it What did this woman look ilke'r** "Haven't yeu seen the newspapers'1*- asked Neale. "Only some little pieces—Just to look at tho pictures," she replied. "Dr. Kendall didn't wish me to read the stories." "Did you see the pictures of the 'mysterious woman,' drawn from description?" "No." "Miss Maclane didn't show them to you? Well, well! How singular!" "1 selected the things to be shown to Miss Miller," said Kendull; "most of them." I "And you cut out all about the mysterious woman?" queried Neale. "Why?" "It was not Intentional," replied the doctor, reddening. "I merely happened to do It." "I guesa Miss Maclane helped you," said Neale. "What has Miss Maclane to do with It?" asked Elsie. "A good many people think she was the woman," replied the captnln. "It's beginning to be said all over, but there's one person who thinks so and won't say so—yet" "Who's that?" said Elsie. "Dr. Blair," responded Neale. "You know who he IsT" i "I've met him," sbe replied. "Mrs. Simmons got him to come to see me onee when I was sick. I think he was staying at the bouse then. What has he to do with this affalrr The captain explained, i "It seems to me," said Elsie, "that anybody who ever saw Miss Maclane would know her next time, if Dr. Blair says that be doesn't recognize her, then sbe isn't the woman no saw." "Do you deny that she called upon you?" persisted tbe captain. "I certainly do deny It," replied Elsie, with decision. "Perhaps it was some other woman who looked like her," suggested Nenle. "I don't know any woman who looks Uke her," said Elsie. "I mver saw one wbo did." The captain glanced at Kendall and said slowly: "She doesn't know anybody wbo looks Uke Miss Maclane."

Any new transoon- tinental road must he built on Onim- ilian soil and without a land {"runt. Wisdom has been learned since the days of the CUM'. The -situation at Victoria lias come to a head and tho Prior {jovemment is a thin*,' of the past. Eherta and Wells have been dismissed and Mt'Inues has resigned. The house will pass supply and then dissolve. Whowill be chosen to form a government is not known. Last Thursday Senator Temple-man headed a delegation of the British •Columbia members of the comiiuius and representatives of the mineowners uud interviewed the government on the lead question. They asked for a bounty of SIT) a ton, the money to be paid direct to tho producer. That is the proper caper. It is the mine and uot the siii-jlter that nesds assistance. Pass the bounty and keep the smelters und railways from increasing their rates, and the mineowuer will get a chance, to live Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, president of theC.P.lt., has soured on British .Columbia, judging from his remarks to the Vancouver Province last week. He denied that his road was seeking connections at Seattle or Spokaue, or would add a now Empress litter to tin- Japan fleet; the Vancouver hotel would not be finished till the labor market got settled; the big wharv.'s in that city would not lie built till needed; and no more branch lines would be constructed in the province,for those they now owned were not paying. Sir Thomas ought to know what he is t.ilking of, but it is a safe bet he is straining the truth if he denies the proiit-makiug of the Crow's Xest and Columbia & Western brauehes. If they don't pay then the whole system must lie verging on bankruptcy. Thomas is just a weo bit out of sorts over that East Kootenay grab and lias set his little hammer knocking. His remarks make him appear foolish and ridiculous. Rossland'* two papers, the World and Miner, received a rare roasting from Mr. Justice Martin.at the Nelson assizes last week. It was in connection with the Daniels-Morgan libel suit, in which the manner of conducting the municipal affairs of Rowland was freely ventilatsd, the two papers being charged with accepting stiff monthly bribes to wink at wrong-doing. His lordship characterized the two journals as a "disgraceto th6community." If guilty, the World and Miner deserved all that was said of them, and their period of usefulness is ovor; if innocent, the accused journals shoulil take the nOaOBSSar** steps to prove and emphasize tln'ir integrity. Aspersions on the public prose are more common in British Columbia than in other portions of Canada, but, while all the provincial editors are admittedly poor, it can aud should be demonstrated that some of them at least have uot parted company with honor. Tlio World has since resented tlu- judge's strictures and denies that it has ever received any hush money. The Miner, too, hastens to record its denial of participating in such i-ues tiouable dealings, at least uniler present management. So the situation now resolves itself into a i|iieslion of veracity. You may take your choice. DRILL POINTS. The lake has lieen rising all week. Timber Inspector Martin was here on Thursday.
