I The delegation from the Nuls'ti Board ���of Trade, together with the representatives from the Slocan who wore appointed to wait upon Mr. I). C. Cileman, the new divisional superintendent succeeding J. S. Lawrence, to make known tbe great hardship which has been wrought upou tbo whole Slocan by the inauguration of a tri weekly service, ���were accorded a hearing on tbe 29th ���ult. The deputation was received very courteously, and many strong claims were forthwith advanced showing why Ilia C.P.R. should revert to tlie old schedule, It was felt at tho conclusion ofj the Interview that the proper slept had been taken and that much good would result from the meeting. Louis Pratt, the delegate from Sanson, wss seen by our reporter on his ���return from Nelson. He said that he felt sure that the plea of the delegation was successful, for Mr. Coleman ex- ���prcs-ed bis intention of himself covering the ground at a near datcand thoroughly investigate tbo grievunce, and it be [found a real grievance existed ie would take steps to remedy it. Mr. Pratt said lit wss a foregono conclusion that the daily inailserv.ee would bo reinstated for Ihe lake (owns in a very short time, but for Sandon be could not express himself to confidently .at present. " Did you press the claims of this end ���ot the distract?" asked the scribe. " I certainly did," replied Mr. Pratt; "and in my efforts I was strongly sup- ipot'ted :by the other delegates. After ihcariiig tho argument!, for our side and mone being forthcoming from lhe other, Mr. Coleman replied in part:. You wil| ���readily understand, gentlemen, that as J have.only just assumed my duties in this division, and being a a ranger to the mountains, I am in cons ei * uence un- ���acquaintcd .with many conditions such .as you complain of. I can readily un- deistand from what yon have told me that uuder the new schedule the city of Sandon has praotically no train service, and although offhand I cannot promise you a daily train, I will do the next best thing hy promising to give you a eervice��� I cannot say what such service will be unt 1 I have been ovur the ground���that will prove acceptable to all parties." The Review urgi s upon the citizens of Sandon the necessity of standing .pat at this jiuictuie. While we are in difficulties all the time wilh the new train arrangements wo nre up against a mail proposition of the worst kind which can bo obviated if we prevail upon the Postmaster-General to transfer the contract for carrying the Nelson, Crow's Nest ami Uuitid Slates mull from the C.P.Ry. Co. to the Gnat Northern Co. It is demonstrated Ihat while the former have seen lit to m��ke mincemeat of their local service, lhe Great Northern Company rise to lhe occasion with a praiseworthy ami enterprising scheme to give Iho district a better service than has hitherto existed. A veritable lesson to Die public in the mailer of bonused vs. unbonused railways. Much ink could be wasted in telling of the largt sunn of public money drawn from the provincial treasury by the C.P.R.

His The E'ireka trail is a busy one. A a lusty, vigorous infant, and fast'nit* start has been made at the mine with growing its swaddling clothes. a crew of fifteen, Helping Out the Slocan. Several of thc coast pnpers, in their anxiety to light the good light for the Slocan, have fallen somewhat awry of tha, main facts, they attributing the trouble to the past office authorities. Nov that they have been put next to the true state of affahs they are making good, however. The News-Ad vet User goes on as follows: Ai will be seen liy a letter from the local superintendent of mail service puplished elsewhere, we were incorrect in the view taken by us in our article in yesterday's is*ue���that the action of the post office department in reducing the mail service in the Slocan district to three deliveries a week, had preceded aud been the cause of the Canadian Pacific railway company curtailing its daily passenger service to one of only three days in the week. From Mr. Mc- Leod's letter it appears that tho reverse was the case and that the reduction in the train service compelled the department to drop its daily mail on account of theru being no transportation available for it on four days in tho week. While this explniia'ion iu no way lessens tho weight of the protests Ihat the people of the Slocan distiict have made against the loss and inconvenience caused them by thu change, it shifts the responsibility for the matter from the postoffice department to the railway company, since o*>. McLeod states that the department also protested against this s rious reduction in Ihe transportation facilities of a large and important section of Ihe province. It appears, therefore, that the prepsure of public opinion must bu brought to bear on Iho railway coa.pany lo induce it to rescind its recent action nnd resloie lo Ihe Slocan district the transportation fucilities that it has had for n number of yeais. The circumstances of the case are such that we cannot believe there will be any hesitation on the part ot the com- pary in acceding without delay to the request made to it. Apart altogether from the general features of the matter, there aio cir. cumstances connected with this particular brunch of tho railway company's operations in British Columbia that make tho service over the Slocan branch different from that on other lints in the company's system in this province. The line from Nakusp to Three Forks, which is the main part of this branch, was constructed by aid fund-bed by the provinci tl government in the shape of a guarantee, Each year since the completion of that road, the provincial government has been called upon lo pay n considerable sum to meet the deficiency in tho proportion ot the revenue allocated to it, to provide the necessary amounlto psy lhe annual interest. The depression that has existed Ior some years iu lhe dislrict bus ii creased the amount that the province has bad to provide. Now Hint there is a prospoat that the generally better economic conditions prevailing throughout the province would be reflected in an improvement in the situation in tho Slocan, it has been anticipated that the annual charge on the province, in connection with the Nakusp and Slocan railway, would also be diminished by laigcr tiaf- Hc receipts over the lino. But there is no prospect of such a desirable consummation being reached if the facili ies tor travel and transportation aro to be reduced more than one half, stagnation and disturbance caused tbo industries in Ike dislrict, and a check put on Ihe nascent activity that wns becoming apparent in the mining and other development ol the Slocan section. We are convinced that these things had not been taken into consideration when the change was decided on. With a company like the Canadian Pacific with a gross annual revenue of something like seventy million dollars, the lo-s of a few hundred dollars a month in giving a proper service on a piece of its lines a tew miles in length is not, or should not be, ot moment. To reduce the service is lo lessen Ihe prospects of a remunerative traffic being developed. The case for the restoration of a daily service is so strong that wa cannot conceive lhe company will hesitate to meet the situation and give the Slocan the service which its interests iinperative'y demand. Whil-t working at the Montezuma mine on Tuesday morning aliortly after 10 o'clock, William Hanson, a surfaceman, was struck down by a tree which he and a man named Frank Hanson (no relation) were felling, and received such severe injuries lo his spine that be expired tho following day.

"His condition is serious," he admitted, "but with good care"��� She cut short the conventional platitudes. "When will he be able to go out ���s-gainr "Not for weeks," emphatically. Her look of anxiety deepened. "What is your father's business, Hiss Hall?" "He Is manager of the local telephone system and attends personally to repairing and keeping up the line." "That means a great deal of hard work?" sympathetically. "Yes, particularly In the winter. Tho circuit comprises nearly 300 phones, and the line extends out Into the country In all directions." 'Discontinue It ln the winter," unthinkingly. "The subscribers need It more then," gravely. "Nearly all of them are farmers and depend upon tbelr telephones (or communication with tbe village and with each other." "If possible, keep from your father all anxiety concerning the business. I tear nervous prostration In his case." During his round of calls Dr. Blyth thought often of the beautiful girl with tne sweet, grave voice. He was a stranger in Llndsey and waa taking np bis uncle's practice. "Fred Hall sick? That's too bad!" was his uncle's comment. "But they'll manage all right," with a country doctor's knowledge of his patient's affairs. "Mrs. Hall is strong and a good nurse. Fidelia understands the business thoroughly. Too bad she Isn't a boy. It will take about all the manager's salary to hire a man to come here from tie city to do the outside work." Dr. Blyth was disappointed when several calls were made upon the sick manager without seeing Fidelia. She was constantly ln his thoughts, and her lovely face seemed always before his eyes. By chance his next call was in the evening. Fidelia met him In the hall as he was leaving. i "Do you feel encouraged, Dr. Blyth?" j "Yes," kindly, "but his nervous condition is serious. Is he worrying about the business?" ' "I think not," hopefully. "I hold his Iposltlon as manager, and that encour- iagcs him. He has all confidence in my lability." "You arc a brave girl," enthusiastically. "You have some one for the loutslde work?"

Keep all the kitchen utensils in one place, and a small one at that It will save time and steos. Keep the cookbook directly over the cooking table on a slanting shelf, where It will remain open to be easily read and stay clean. Let the water ln which cabbage has been boiled cool before pouring it down the sink. This precaution will avoid an unpleasant odor ln the kitchen. When a pot or teakettle has boiled dry pour boiled water into it never cold water. There will be little danger of the vessel cracking or the enamel peeling If this is done immediately. A kettle that Is placed directly upon the fire soon becomes coated with soot and lampblack, which are difficult to remove. To prevent this grease the bottom of the outside of the kettle. The black can then be easily rubbed off with a newspaper. The Blush. The blush is the sign which nature hangs out to show where chastity and honor dwell, and yet how many people, thoughtlessly perhaps, will tease and torment a bashful and blushing child until the girl Is taught to conquer her blushes ind chase away the tears hiding a soft heart beneath a brazen face. Goethe, in company with a mother and a daughter, when the latter, being reproved for something, blushed and burst into tears, said: "How beautiful our reproach has made our daughter. That crimson hue and those silvery tears become her much better than any ornament of gold or pearls; those may be hung on the neck of any woman, bnt these are never seen disconnected with moral parity."���Rev. Madison C. Peters. wi th wett .sweetmeats " Woman Beats the Bank. The Casino management has lost several million francs because of tha fact that a roulette wheel was out of gear and periodically the ball stopped at a certain number. The winner is a French widow nicknamed "Mamma Viaud" by the habitues of tho place. Some weeks ago she lost heavily at the gaming table and having noticed tho fault of that particular roulette wheel, asked that her money be returned to her. The management refused, and Mamma Viaud took her revenge. With the help of two other adventurers she set to work to study the wheel and placed her money whenever Bhe had found out that certain numbers would be the winners. The managers were for some time mystified, and after the closing hours held experiments with the croupiers to find out how the woman won. The numbers played by her and her assistants, which had been carefully taken down by special detectives during the day, were played over again by the employes and to the astonishment of the directors it was found that they won. The management finally decided to come to a compromise with Mamma Viaud, and paid her $300,000 to learn that one roulette wheel was out of order. Discolored Necks. One of the common physical defects to which women are prone Is a discolored neck, due, it may be, to dyes from the clothing or to hair lotions, pomades, etc., which work down from the head. Of course, barring the possibility of sunburn, the skin on the neck should have the same hue as that on the shoulders. It is well, however, before resorting to artificial means, to see what hot water, a coarse wash cloth and plenty of good soap will do ln removing the discoloration. If a month of this natural treatment does not bleach the neck anoint It dally with peroxide of hydrogen. In case this irritates the skin a little vaseline or sweet almond oil may be rubbed ln after the chemical bas dried. Superfluous Sugar-Tongs.

When fitting the waist lining pin the front edges together to form a seam toward the outside, being careful to have them even at the top. A seam of three- eighths of an Inch is allowed at each side of the front and only this much should be taken up ln pinning. A certain Indication that too much alteration has been made or that It bas been made on the wrong seam. Is when tbe grain of the lining material pulls out of shape. The pattern is planned to have the grain of the goods run in tho lines that will best fit ln to the figure. For this reason every section Is marked with a line of small perforations, and ln cutting the lining these perforations must follow a lenjthwlse thread of the material. Small Turnips. Turnips that are too small to pare and slice economically before cooking may be utilized by boiling whole ln their jackets. When done, the skins can be rubbed off with the hand the same as beets. By this method the economical housewife Is able to use turnips that otherwise would go to the hogs, and, according to the experience of many who have tried this way, tho small turnips are sweeter and have a better flavor when so treated than tiie larger ones cooked ln tho usual wax.

Henry Rogers, a stalwart lumberman not long ago closed a contract with a large milling concern to cu' and raft the timber from a big are of virgin forest down the river to thi Company's sawmill. It was a big undertaking and Rogers was employed j on the job for several months with a 'considerable force of men. | | j I had met him on a hunting trip | and he invited me to spend a week lor so with him at his camp, says a well-known writer. Of course I ac- 1 cepted. He was camped in one ol I 'the best hunting sections that could be imagined and I pocked my kit, i. , took a large quantity of ammunition | and caught the first train for a small j town on the lower river, where Roc-1 era met me with a gasoline launch [ and conveyed my traps and mo to his I camp, thirty miles down the river, j | The forces of men in the woods and | the hauling of the logs kept the game stirred up considerably and I had sueh a hunting trip as I had always dream- led of but had nover before experienced. My bag included two bears, imany deer and one or two wolves, to isay nothing of turkeys, greese, ducka 'and squirrels without count. Down River on a Raft. | About the time that my vacation was drawing to a close Rogers mado 'ready an enormous raft of logs, which he intended floating down the river, and as he was to accompany the raft in person I decided to go with him, thinking that this would'be a novel trip and possibly an exciting one, but my wildest fancy had not prepared me for the adventure we encountered. Several tents were rigged up on the raft, where we slept at night ns snug as if we had been ashore. The cooking was done on open fires built upon boxes of earth. During the day I traveled generally in the gasoline boat, stopping along from time to time to hunt out some stretch of forest or visit a lake which Rogers told me ot, and I had excellent sport. I could travel a great deal faster than the raft, of course, snd I sometimes let it get five or ten miles ahead of mc or I would run that distance down the river ahead of it and hunt until it overtook me or nightfall made me set out in search of it. As a rule we tied up at night, especially in difficult portions of the river, where islands and shoals made navigation for the raft beset with dangers of grounding it or splitting it np on snags or the point of on island. However, as we suffered some delay and the contract time for the delivery of the raft at the mill was drawing close, Rogers decided to run ns much as possible at night, and after that it was not often that we tied up. Nature favored us. The nights were almost as bright as day after the moon came up. which at that season occurred about 11 o'clock. The Collision With the Tree. There was good light after moonrise until morning, but between dark and the hour for the moon to make its appearance it was as dark as a pocket and the traveling was beset with grave dangers. More than once on these occasions did the raft bump into the bank, driving the timbers together with a sullen, crushing sound. One night, as we were traversing a most difficult stretch of water, a narrow channel where the great raft had scarcely more than room to pass, I was standing out forward where Rogers and three others were working the Bweeps, guiding the unwieldy mass of timbers through the narrow channel. We were navigating a difficult bend, a point that required the greatest skill in steering, when the current got the upper hand and the raft was hurled toward the bank with a force that was amazing. Just at this point a large, crooked oak tree hung low over the water and the raft swept beneath it. The extreme end of the foremost log struck the trunk-with a shock that shook the tree as if it had been a reed. The Panther Spring Upon Him. I had braced myself for the shock the best I could, and I should have retained my legs if it had not been for a long, lithe object that projected itself out of the rank foliage of the tree straight in my face. It sailed through the air like a flash of light and with an unearthly scream it alighted upon my breast and its sharp claws tore through my heavy hunting clothes as if they had been the veriest gauze. Tbere was no mistaking what it was. It was a gigantic panther, and my heart turned sick within me as I realized it. The force of the leap threw me flat upon my back, but the enraged animal did not loosen its death grapple in the least. I could fee! its hot breath burning my cheek I and its sharp claws as they dug deeper and deeper into my flesh. It is a wonder that I did not become unconscious, but I was not to be so spared. I thought every moment thnt tho animal would seize my throat in its jaws and it seemed an age that I lay there helpless with its cat-like eyes glaring into my own, scarcely six inches away. I was utterly helpless and resigned to my fate. ] It certainly was not more than three or four seconds that I lay thus, al- j though it seemed an age before I saw Rogers approaching me with a heavy axe raised above his head. i His Rescue by a Companion. I He was running across the logs and once I saw him leap high into tlie air, but I did not then know why he did this. Afterwards I discovered that the raft had broken up and that I was upon a small portion of it that had gone on an independent cruise. I Rogers had jumped across a rapidly ' widening space of water to my rescue and had he missed his calculation of the distance his life might have paid the penalty. The panther saw him approaching, anc1 .villi a snarl of rage it sprang from iny recumbent torn, straight for tbe approaching woodman. Rogers saw it coming and swung Iii? axe above his bend like some nneient conception of the pod of buttle. Just at this moment the" raft swung around a bend of the river, which threw us out of the heavy shadow of the timber into the moonlight, I hnve never seen a more inspirim* sight tban Rogers, standing with his axe poised and every muscle of his magnificent form tense, with anticipation of the shock, and the panther leaping straight for his throat.

The next instant tlie blade of the weapon I crashed deep into the sp.imai's skull ~a it fell, inert and lifeless, at the | foot of my rescuer. That panther's skin is the rug beneath my feet as I write, and plainly upon the top of its head is the scar of the blow that ended its life. The taxidermist who prepared it for me wanted to sew up the cut so that it would be invisib'e. but I would have none of it. VANITY'S VISIONS. A USEFUL DEVICE. CURIOUS GHOST STORY. Bridegroom Sees Spectre of His Mother Who Is Still Living. The freaks of a so-called spectre are alarming a hamlet some forty miles from Cardiff, says The London Mail. The ghost has been paying unwelcome attentions to a well known inhabitant of the hamlet who was recently married. The trouble commenced by his finding himself lying on his bedroom floor beside his bed one morning. Naturally, he put this down to nightmare. The morning after, however, on awaking, he found himself at the other end of the room, and he then became somewhat uneasy. His wife on both occasions had slept peacefully. The third night, however, both kept awake, and their vigil was rewarded by a sight of their mysterious visitor, who appeared shortly after the traditional hour of midnight. A trustworthy correspondent ascertained from the victim that the spirit took tho form of his own mother, who is still alive and well. He says that his mother opposed his marriage with the lady of his choice very Btrongly, and he thinks that the nocturnal visits are acts of revenge. In order to drive forth the unwelcome intruder, the victim persuaded several of his male friends to remain in his house one night, but, although the ghost appeared aa usual to the young man, his wife, and his mother- in-law, the other watchers were quite unable to discern the strange presence. The young man's mother-in-law de- olares that on one occasion she approached the spectre, who said, quite distinctly, "Well, what do you want?" She also says that she temporarily lost the power of the right side of her body at the meeting. The victim declares that the spirit has several times accompanied him part of the way to the village, where ho is engaged as a collier. His comrades are groatly perturbed by the frequent appearance of the spectre, and believe firmly in the victim's veracity. The vicar of the parish and several others have visited the house and tried in vain to elucidate the mystery. Summer Silks That Are Beautiful, but Expensive.

Ungallant Cabbies Try to Break Up Competition of Weaker Sex, Th** cabmen of Paris are ungallant enough to make war on the new cab- women. The success of the cabwomen has roused their ire, and they are employing all sorts of means to interfere with their female competitors. Mme. de Courcelles, one of the women recently licensed, was driving ���.HI*. DB COOIICKl.LKS. her cab in the Rue de Rivoli the other night, when a cabman deliberately drove his vehicle between her cab and the curb. This caused her horse to swerve, and the cab was struck by a passing motor car and partly wrecked. One of the two women who were inside was slightly injured. The offending cabman tried to drive off, but Mme. de Courcelles sprang down from her box, seized him by the collar and held him till the police arrived. There was an angry altercation, several other cabmen violently taking the part of their male colleague. But a number of pedestrians gave testimony ic favor of the woman, and ths cabman is to appear in court. The Future of Mere Man. "The year 2007 will see men no longer figuratively, but literally, the slaves of women.

Uniformed Amazons will be called in to keep order during the debates, which will be on such subjects as 'Shall men be allowed pocket-money' or 'Are we to be again degraded by allowing men votes?' TheBe and kindred subjects will give the gentle sex much food for reflection. "In the Law Courts we shall find bewigged female judges. Legal decisions will not, as heretofore, be based upon the old-fashioned methods ol weighing evidence, but will be administered on a rational system, whereby the feeling and emotions of the judge will be the only criterion. In the happy English homes man will do the cooking, and wash and dress the babies, 'Mere Man,' will realize at last that he is a cumberer of the ground." ���Pearson's Magazine. "Forty Shilling" Day. At the little village of Wotton, five miles from Dorking, recently, the curious custom of "forty shilling" day was observed. Tho custom found its birth in 1718, when an eccentric man named Glanville, by his wiU, directed that five boys should visit his tomb on the anniversary of Mb burial, and, placing their hands on the tombstone, repeat the Lord's Prayer, the Apostles' Creed and the Ten Commandments. The property set aside was estimated to yield ��30 annually, and the boys for saying the prayers at his tomb annually were to be each rewarded with ��2, this payment giving rise to the appellation "forty shilling day." The balance of money is devoted to the apprenticing of suitable boya. A Placa For the Duster When It la Not In Commission. Where to put the duster when the dusting Is finished has always been a mystery. If put In the closet It Is hard to find again; If left about the room it Is unsightly.

A feather duster to go with this holder can be bought for a few pennies or is made by lapping the ends of two or three feathers one and one-half Inches from the end of a twelve Inch stick. Wind a string around these to bold them while placing other feathers just a little lower; wind the string around these securely and repeat this process until you have used about forty small rooster feathers. Over all this wind tightly a piece of thin wire. If you wish to ornament the stick, cover the wire with bright colored' ribbon or leather. A bamboo stick la preferable, but If any other Is used It can be improved by gilding.
