VOL V. NO. 12. KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, THURSDAY, FEB. 13, 1913. $1.50 Per Annum. Meeting of City Council New By-laws to Regulate Plumbing and to License Plumbers The council met Friday last with a full attendance, Mayor Jones resuming charge of the meeting after a two week's absence at the coaat. Mr. R. H. Parkinson attended with a plan of the proposed extension of Water Street south to Park Avenue. He presented a petition in support of the extension, containing lhe aignatures of the majority of the property owners. The Bank of Montreal, he said, was oppoaed lo the acheme and there were one or two people he had been unable to see. It was decided lhat Mr. Parkinaon should obtain the balance of lhe signal urea and submit the plan and petition again. Mr. P. P. Willits applied for permission to move lhe drug store building from its present position to the opposite corner of Pendoxi alreet. Thia waa a'temporary arrangement only, aa when the new building which they were going to erect on their site was finished they intended moving hack the old building to the rear of the lot and enclosing it with brick. They had got the consent of Meaara. Gaddes- McTaviah to put the building on their lot for six months. A resolution waa pasaed thai permission be given on the understanding that the building waa to be removed within six month, and that no electric light wires were to be cut. Mr. H. Lysona applied for the contract to aupply plants for lhe park flower beda at a price of $75. i , This was referred lo the parks I** committee. ���-''V '���' ' " Soma correspondence waa also read in reference to ths sale of the city's debentures. A lstter was read from C. W. Black, a solicitor of Kamloops, claiming damagea on behalf of Thos. Hsmilton for personal injuries received during work on the sewer construction. The mayor explained that Hamilton had been working as a sub- foreman on the sewer construction and had had his hand hurt with the pile-driver. After the accident he had acknowledged in the presence of the cily engineer and another employee lhat the accident had been caused by his own carelessness. The mayor said he had spoken lo a solicitor about the matter and he had said lhe man had no case against the city. The clerk waa inatrucled to inform Mr. Black that the city refused to recognize Hamilton's claim. The chief constable's report for the month was received. The total number of cases had been 25, nearly all drunkenness. The a- mounl of fines, collected had been $101. Tha Fire Brigade submitted a report of their year's work together with a detailed atatement of the causes, damage done, ore, of the twelves fires which occurred during the year. The report, which we print below,, was signed on behalf of the directors by Harold Glenn, the secretary, and showed the total loss by fire during the vear to be $4,025, as compared with $11,800 in 1911.��� " The paat year haa been remarkably free from fires. On three occasions only, were the boys called on for actual fighting, and the directors are y-ry pleased to state that the organization aa instituted previous to 1911 and since perfected, proved very efficient. The alarm system was not aa good aa laat year, the chief defect being slowness in notifying the fire hall. We respectfully request that, if possible, the chiefs residence and power house be called simultaneously. We would suggest that more hydrants be placed on the water mains, especially where buildings become at all congested. The city hotels were inspected quarterly and are now in fair shape. The officers of the brigade elected for 1913 are as follows : Chief Max. Jenkins Deputy Chief John McMillan j Captain No. I Claude Newby Captain Not2 Frank Bird I Lieutenant No. I...W. G. Wilson ! Lieutenant No. 2..Harvey Brown" A telegram was read from Mr. F. A. McDiarmid, solicitor for the Union of B. C Munipipalilies, slating that the consideration of lhe application for extension of the Okanagan Telephone Co.'s charter had been fixed for February I Ith, and advised lhat a full delegation be sent. The Mayor stated lhal the Reeve of Penticton Messrs. Sutherland, Logie nnd Miller of Summerland, and Mr. W. A. Lang of Peachland had been delegated by their different municipaltiies to appear before the Private Bills committee in the Provincial legislature in reference to the mailer. The city clerk aaid he had been informed bv tlie clerks of Penticton and Summerland that their councils were very anxious for Kelowna to send delegates. It was decided that the city should bear the expense of a delegate to Victoria to oppose the application of the Telephone Company for power to construct telegraph lines in the Okanagan, and the appointment of same be left to the Mayor. Aid. Calder submitted n list of Supplies needed by the Water Works department. Aid. Sutherland advised the council to purchase two elecltic meters, one to be placed on the sewer main service lines, nnd the other to measure the total output of the generators. This suggestion was endorsed by the council generally and lhe Light nnd Water department were authorised to secure all necessary auppliea. Referring to expenditures in the various departments, Aid. Sutherland said it would be necessary to curtail expenses ns much ns poj- sible until the financial, ruination improved. Messrs. Canavan & Mitchell submitted the following report of pro- gress on the sewerage undert'k-' ing: Gentlemen,��� " We present herewith summary of sewer construction expenditure to January 31st, 1913. $50,282.75 has been spent on the main works, i.e , lhe disposal plant, pumping station, force main and main sewer from the pumping station to the alley north of Bernard avenue. With the exception of the disposal plant (where provisions of a temporary character have been mode) litis work is practically completed. $3,101.21 has been spent on the sewer in the alley north of Bernard avenue, between Waler and Pendoxi streets. This line appears on our cost sheet as ' Main No. 2' and as the pipe is laid and filled sufficiently for protection we deem it advisable to let this trench stand until the excavation thaws out sufficiently to permit the balance of the backfill being made at a reasonable coat. $7,1 72.89 haa been spent on the line known as ' Branch A,'which runs along the alley south of Lawrence Irom Water street lo the alley east of Abbott street, thence northerly along lhe same to the alley south of Bernard avenue, and thence easterly along the same to Waler street. This line is completed with lhe exception of a very small amount of work. $1,026.02 has been spent on ' Branch B,' which runs Ely on the ally south of Bernard avenue, from Water to Pendozi street. This line is completed. $1,317.69 has been spent on ' Branch C which runs westerly on the alley north of Bernard avenue, from Water street to Mill street. This line is also practically completed. House connections have been run in wherever buildings existed and a total length of 1,720 feel has been Inid at a cost of $1,019.39. The eewer system in so far as is laid is now ready for use and we submit a draft of two by-laws which we think ahould be passed, one to license lhe master plun.bers, thereby giving you control over their work, and the other regulating the manner of making connections with the'sewer, and clearly setting forth the requirements as to plumbing, use and sewer rentals. In charging for house connections we recommend that a Hal rate be charged, i.e., $1.25 per lineal foot for such portion as lies within the street lines and 75c. per lineal foot for such portion ns lies on lhe property."

Scott and Party Die After Reaching Pole Will Abandon Tourist Hotel Project The company which had been Jpnned or at nny rate was in process of formation, for the purpose of erecting the tourist hotel on the lake shore, have decided to abandon the scheme, the reason being lhe emphatic refusal of the public lo allow any part of the park to be used for the purpose. At a meeting of the Kelowna Hotel Co. Ltd. the following resolution was passed : "That, in view of the altitude of the general public ns indicated by the plebiscite taken, and the lack of support from prominent citizens, which is to be deplored by ull who look for the immediate advancement and future extension of Kel owna, be it resolved that *ve release lhe offer of site adjoining the Park, on which it was proposed to erect a'first-class, up-to-date, modern tourist hotel, which would have attracted and satisfied a large tourist and commercial trade, which at present has to avoid Kelowna." Dr. Young Advocates Compulsory Cremation One of the saddest catastrophies in the annals of polar exploration came lo light this week when lhe news was flashed by wireless to New Zealand that Capt. Robert R. Scott and some at least of his parly had peiished in a blizzard, and that after having achieved the vie Free Pre-emptions to Encourage Settlement Important Amendment to the Land Act A new departure in government policy which may be confidently regarded as certain to very greatly stimulate settlement and colonization activity in British Columbia is the outstanding feature oi an extra tory for which they had striven so!important bill for the amend. |ong. | ment of the Land Act, which Capt.

' which had carried the explorer record and Sio as crown grant When lhe bill respecting the Regulation of Crematoria was placed in committee of the whole House thia week, Mr. Patker Williams declared lhat where cremation of human remains was permitted il would be advisable that all bodies so treated should first be the subject ol an enquiry by a corner. He pointed out that in cases of deaths which are ultimately enquired into, and where the bodies have been buried- in the ground, it is possible for them to be exhumed in order that postmodern examinations may be conducted nnd the objects of a coroner's enquiry carried out. However, were such bodies incinerated no such following up of a case would be possible. Hon. Dr. Young, provincial secretary, who introduced the bill, declared that aa o medical man he believed in cremation, and he asserted that if Sir. Richard McBride would permit him he would bring in a bill making it compul. sory in British Columbia. He stated further lhat he did not think it would be practicable to make a coroner's enquiry compulsory in all cases where cremation of the body is desired. and his expedition lo lhe Antartic, and which later, last year, went onee again to the south to bring him and his companions back. Captain Scott's parly reached the exact spot where Roald Amundsen planted the Norwegian flag at the South Pole. They found there the hut constructed and lefl behind by Amundsen's party. These facts were recorded in the documents found on the bodies of the explorers when they were recovered. It was on Scott's return that he and his party were overwhelmed try one of the terriffic bllzzirds so prevalent in the Antartic regions. 1 he date of Captain Scott's attainment of the South Pole, January II, 1912, shows that he reached the goal of his expedition almost exactly one month after Captain Roald Amundsen. 1 he palhetic message to the outside w brief contained in Scott's diary, and written in the little hut where the brave adventure!s awaited a certain and terrible death, will go down as one of the most tragic utterances in the history of adventure��� " We are weak. Writing is difficult, but for my own sake I do nol regret this journey, which has shown that Englishmen can endure hardships, help one another, and meet death with as great fortitude as ever in the past. We knew we took our position. We have no cause for complaint, but bow to the will of Providence, determined to do our best to the last. "But if we have been willing to give our lives to the enterprise, which is for the honor of our country, 1 appeal to our countrymen to see that those who depend on us are properly cared for. Had we lived, I should have had a tale to tell of the hardihood, endurance and courage of my companions which would have stirred the heart of every Englishman. " These rough notes are our death bell's toll, but surely���surely a great rich country like ours will see thai those who are dependent on us are ptoperly provided for." "(signed) R.SCOTT. "March 25, 1912." fee. The land and thc cost of survey are given without charge The policy of the past hus been to sell such pre-empted lands at a price of jl per acre 25 per cent, of such cost being payable within two years from the issuance of record, with further annual payments of 25 cents per acre until the purchase price of Ji per acre be paid, and 6 per cent interest being colket able upon arrears. The maximum quantity of land which it has heretofore been possible to take up by the pre-emption process has been ifo acres, and this maximum will remain the general standard of pre-emption size under the new legislation now adopted by the department, power being, however reserved to the minister to refuse any application fot apre- -emptipn- which may in his opinion be adverse to tbe public interest.

Amusements lulling a story through which mini a virile religious sentiment thai is heart-touching and yet is not of the nature to bring offence. The Rosary," the play of Edward E. Rose's, which proved such a big aucceaa last aeason, Is repeated this vear with added brilliancy. While the central figure is that of a Catholic Priest, the character is drawn that the question of sectarianism is not in any wnj involved. Rev. Brian Kelly is presented as a man of God, whose greatest thought is lhe good he car, do for his fellow-men of whatever creed or of no creed, and the actor who fills the character seems to have caught the author's inspiration in his conception of the role aa the audiences al the Opera House will see when the production is presented next Friday, February 28th, He plays a keen Irish sense of humor and good will as a foil to his priestly calling, and thus is is able to solve the depths of a domestic tragedy and resloie happiness to a home that is near destruction through the marhlnations of a designing villain who seeks revenge because another has won the woman he loves. He wantonly brings the loving wife into disrepute, after ruining her sister and alao plots the wrecking of the fortunes of his successful rival, who believes him a steadfast friend. It is the office of the priest to unravel the tangle and restore tranquility, perfecting a moral that should be witnessed by everybody, as well as enjoyed. The cast chosen for the presentation, consisting of Wanda Bnnkley, Spencer Walker, James Hystl, Helen Rose, Bethel Barth, Hair) O'lynn and Claude Boone, is �� capable one without exception, and the scenic quipment of the production is beautiful aa well aa effective. The staging of the show is a credit to Rowland At Clifford, who have six companies playing the same play this season.

AU kinds of Repairs Items from Ellison (From our own correspondent) O.i Friday latt the Benvoulin Literary Society paid a visit to Ellison to debate with our society on the question, ''Are Women Eligible to Fill All Positions Occu pied by Men ? " Benvoulin took the affirmative and Ellison the negative. Good arguments were put forth by Messrs. Weeks and Squair for the ladies, whilst Messrs. Whitaker and Barron spoke equally well for the negative. The decision, which was the popular vote, resulted in a win for Ellison. At the close of the debate Mr. Wallis, of Benvoulin, addressed the two societies on the rules of debating, his remarks being attentively listened to and will no doubt result in a greatly improved style of debating in future. Before the commencement of the linguistic battle Mrs. C. Whitaker delighted the audience by her fine rendering of two songs---" When the Heart is Young," and " The Garden of Sleep," being ably accompanied on the piano by Miss Cottingham. Mr. G. Whitaker also sang a romance from Faust, entitled " When all was young," whilst Mr. G. Watt read a story "East and West." Refreshments were served at the close and we understand that arrangements are being made for Ellison to visit Benvoulin early in March when another stirring debate may be expected. On Friday next (to-morrow) the batchelors of the society are going to entertain and a rattling good time is promised. We understand that a new pupil has been enrolled at our school and as soon as the roads are clear of snow and mud his little brother Sid. and his friend Harry are expected to present themselves as pupils. BERNARD AVENUE, KELOWNA. Mission Creek and Benvoulin Notes (From our own correspondent) Mr. and Mrs. D. G. Stiell returned from their honeymoon trip to Vancouver last Monday. Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Speer are visiting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Speer this week. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Fisher entertained the young people of the district to a very delightful dance last Thursday evening, February 6th. About twenty-five were present and a most enjoyable time was spent by all. Last Tuesday afternoon Mr. Fred Munson drove twelve of lhe young people up to the logging chute on Okanagan Lake, near Mr. Munson's saw mill in Glenmore. The party left about one o'clock returning home in the evening. All report a very pleasant drive. On Friday evening, February 7, a visit to Ellison was made by the Benvoulin Literary Society. A debate was held on the subject, " Are women eligible to all positions held by men." Mr. Weeks and Mr. Squair of Benvoulin took the Affirmative side, and Mr. Whitaker and Mr. Barnes of Ellison the Negative side. The decision was taken by a popular vote of the audience The result was in favor of the negative side by six votes. After a short programme tne ladies of Ellison served refreshments which were greatly enjoyed by the visitors. A very interesting debate was held in connection with the Benvoulin Literary Sociely on Friday evening, January 31th, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Day, the subject of debate being, "Resolved, lhat Borden's Naval Policy is more in lhe best interests of Canada nnd Empire than Laurier's Policy. The affirmative side was led by Wm. Patterson, supported by Miss Mary Day. The negative side was led by Mr. Squair, supported by the Rev. J. O'Brien. The judges decided in favor of the negative side by four points. After the debate Mr. C. E. Weeks gave an address on "War, Can we Prevent it > A very enjoyable evening was spent by all those present.

IUTT1ING W - li THE CLOUDS nanklnd Has I a Trying to Fight the Thrcn:. iiing Hall-Storm From Til i! immemorial. Prom time Immemorial mankind lias endeavorel to find some physical means of preventing hailstorms. In antiquity the custom of hurling lavr?!1ns nnd otter, .r-lsslles Hgslnst '.louds that thrcalcned n discharge of hall wag wldospron'l. In the middle 5CT8 the aid of the Borcerer who claimed the power of Influencing the weather ��� wns invc'cd to the same pnd. TlellH, rtlfo, were believed to be efficacious In avert'ng hailstorms, rawly In lh�� nineteenth century metal-tipped poles were set up In irrent numbers !n irony partis of Europe, In the belief thai they would draw off the free electricity 0f the air, which wns nwimod to be the Met cause of hailstorms, About 1896 the custom of "rn-i'-sliootlng" was Introduced in Enrofe. crec'InHy in due-growing districts, and soon became immensely popu'ar. This con- Mstcd In bombarding fie clouds with various si'e.-la! for"-i cf cannon. In thc year 1900 five hundred of these cannon were In use in France and Spain. 2,000 In t ;rtr!a-llungnry, and 10,000 In Irnly. Tills custom ntlll fiour'sr-hes. It !a. however, open to Ihe fatal objection that, even should It prove efficacious, the expense entailed In systematic, prelection hy this method Is in excess of tho benefits to bo obtained. WHERE THEORIES Si;FFEB The only Justification America has yet had comes direct from the self- satisfaction of the individual American. His satisfaction, however, Is both unmistakable and volublo, Bays a writer orltlc. He Is content, though the competition becomes dally more severe and evident. He is beginning to realise now that many are handicapped art the very outset, that the struggle Is prolonged hy the stronger for the sheer Joy of conquest, and even that a good third of the energy expended Is consumed ln piling up success on the top of victory. Yet a cheerful acceptance of the situation Is the price of his individuality, his optimism, and his chance of winning out, and he pnys It ungrudgingly. There is a greater measure of content and lesB of a sense of environmental Injustice In America than anywhere else In the world today. And the principles of conduct and soda] relationships, though elemental, are like the rules^of n game, there Is an immediate appeal to public censure or approval, and little dlscrepansy between theory and practice. .-Naturally our theories suffer when compared with Idealistic and mors divorced codes. Where every man Is supposed to consider his own Interests, no social blame Is imputed, and no one, except for Initial handicaps, has an excuse. That is not, on the whole, an unenviable state of affairs; the American temperament Only approximates it. As an Instinctive theory, this Is what It believes In. Yet with every mnn theoretically for himself, punilo splrlted- ness prevails to a marked and unusual decree. For every man drives a frank bargain with the community; Ihere Is a competitive ond open market for altruistic wares. Consider Tor n moment that phenomenon of our civlllratlon, tbe millionaire phllan- iiiroplsf. Is he nn enigma, this portion who hns seumeii to change character and tcct.es under our very eyes? By no means; If Americans worship money, they worship It as Slower, ns cornered energy nnd not iu an Intrinsic nnd miserly way. Sifiinv Out die Hnnchiis Tho Chinese rebels, who ore the 'original" Chinese, have resorted to an ancient Israelltlsh trick to sift aut the real Chinese from the doomed SlanchUB. Instead of saying to the suspect "Say now Sh'bbo'cth," as the C.ileadltes said to thc Epbralmltea, they Bay to thnm, "Sny llushlllu," lhe Chinese word for "six." And if tho suspect doosn't pronounce It right according to ancient Chinese fashion, lie gets II In the neck, literally, as the l!phralmltes got It who said "Slb- boleth" Instead of "Shibboleth." The test Imposed by the Chinese Insurgents Is a numerical one. The suspect Is told to count. When he pusses six IiIh fate Is sealed. If the suspect says "IjO-ow" he Is spared. Ir he says "lx>-Kcc-Haw", as tho Manchus do, It's all day wlfli him. "Then they took him and slew him." Spruce for Uritlsh Admiralty Tho British Admiralty has recently placed nu order for 2110,000 feet of white spruce to bo used In tho manufacture of oars for the rowbonta of warships. It Is perhaps not generally known that llio superior quality of tho white spruce grown In tho Queen Charlotte Islands,, off the coast of British Columbia, waa discovered years upo by British naval officers of tho North lJiu'iflc station. The kind of timber waa found lo be Idoally ai'npted for making oars, nnd It is uow used exclusively for that purppso by His Uajoity'e vessels throughout Ihe world. The Umber will bo shipped past by the Canadian Pacific Hallway. Light from Sun-tr This phenomenon, tho caiiBO of I'hlch has not yet been satisfactorily explained, may bo observed when discs of loaf sugar aro mounted on >i lathe and rapidly rotated while a ' .I'niiiiT plays lightly against thorn. An almost continuous radiation cf light may be thus produced from the Higor. It has been shown that the I ght does not arise from heating of lhe Bugar, and If Is bellevod to be int<il by somo chnngo taking place In tho sugar crystals. Tho 'ict ot i rystalllsutlon Is known to be sometimes accompanied by flash is of r.ht.

Bernard Shaw on White Slavery The fundamental condition of the existance of this traffic, writes Bernard Shaw in the Awnkener, is that society muat be so organized that a large class of women are more highly paid as prostitutes than they would be as respectable women, and tha' people who organize the labor of prostitutes make larger profits than'hose who organize the labor of respectable women, in other words, society must be like English Society at present, where the heroine of Tom Hood's " Sighs " is much better off than the heroine of his "Song of the Shirt," and, as a matter ��f fact, neither jumps off Waterloo Bridge nor has to work two hours to make 3J d. (seven cents). And until you change thia condition, and secure to every respectable woman a sufficient wage for a decent life, with reasonable hours of labor, you will never get rid of the white slave traffic. You may refuse to be convinced of this, and say that we shall soon see whether we cannot gel rid of the rascals who live on the profits of prostitution by flogging them soundly under lhe new Act. Do not deceive yourself: most of those who are living on the profits of prostitution will not b flogged ; on the contrary, they are already amongst the most indign ant advocates of flogging. They are ladies and gentlemen, clergy men, bishops, judges, members of Parliment, highly-connected ladies leading society in cathedral towns, peers and peeresses, and pillars ol aolid middle clasa Puritanism. These people have shares in industrial enterprizes which employ women and girls. Thousands ol these women and girls get wages insufficient tn support ihem. Many are quite respectable. They are living with their families, and are saved from the streets by their husband's or father's wages. But there are always oiphans and widdows and girls from lhe country and abroad who have no families and no husbands ; and these must submit lo the blackest misery that a slum garret and au income of from eightpence to a shilling a day can bring to a lonely, despised shabby, dirty, underfed, woman, or else add to their wages by prostitution. I hus the woman's strength and energy are maintained by what she earns in the street, and used in making dividends for rich share-holders, The wages of prostitution are stitched into your button-holes, and into your blouse, pasted into -your match boxes and into your boxes of pins, stuffed into your mattress, mixed with the paint in your walls, and stuck between the joints of your water pipes. The very glaze on your basin and teacup has in it the lead poison that you offer lo the decent woman as the reward of honeat labor, whilst the procuress is offering chicken and champagne. Flog other people until you are black in the face and they are red in the back: you will not cheat the Recording Angel into putting down your debts to the wrong account. The Churches GEO. A.

CAPITAL AUTHORIZED - ���78,000 MONEY TO LOAN On First Mortgages Agreements for Sale Purchased FIRE, LIFE, AND ACCIDENT INSURANCE British Suffragettes Latest Tactics The British cabinet ministers are all getting peppered by suffragettes. The trick consists in sending letters containing red pepper or snuff. Every cabinet minister has received this attention and one parliamentary undersecretary was blinded for nearly two hours by pepper which blew into his eyes. It is becoming usual for lhe ministers to hand over letters lo their secretaries. The secretaries are naturally cautious but they have not always escaped. Two ways of giving doses of snuff or pepper have been tried. One is to send a small box with a spring, which scatters the powder as soon aa the box is opened. The other way is to enclose the powder in a letter which is fixed rather tightly in the envelope so as to require an effort to pull it out. The result is that the powder is thrown into the victim's face. D. A.

The latter tella how he put anme of the professor's eurari on some nf htfl blnwtnin arrows, which are like toothpicks feathered with c tton, and tried it on a buck deer in the forest. "After a deliberate aim our hunter fired, if 1 may use such a word for the little puff, scarcely beard by us. an I entirely inaudible above the mi ilinsr corn leaves at the distance nf the deer.
