CURRENT ;i H Methodism Politically a Negligible Quantity The Rev. Doctor Chown and the officials of Methodism are quite properly and justly worked up over the "Norway House" Indians. The matter stands somewhat thus:���������For over one hundred years the Methodist have taken charge of and oared for the Indians, at Norway House. They have Christianized, civilized and educated them until now they are among the foremost Indians of the Dominion of Canada. Just lately, the Roman Church has made a move and has brought influence to bear upon the Dominion (Government by which a.large sum of money has been set aside for that Church, so that this church may, at the extra expense of the people of Canada, establish a cause and erect buildings by which the Indians will be educationally, religiously and nationally divided into two factions. ���������/.��������������������������������������������� Even though the money runs into the large sum of thirty sthousand dollars, if I mistake not, there are only three Indians of school age under the tutelage of the Roman Church. Concentrated effort of that. Church, ia aa unreasonable undertaking, is of more power at Ottawa than the entire influence of the Methodists of Canada. Why: is this? Surely the Methodists are air intelligent, perceiving and public-spirited people. JFhey are up to the times, and as successful as any other people. Very true, bttt still they are a NEGLIGIBLE QU&NTITY atOttawa. and elsewhere in Canada, where there are parliamentary centres and groupings. They have no voice, and never had in a straight contest with Rome, or other body. They aro "hatf ;s^k*!f.������ ^When a contest comes in the pomicsli?i|p(pi^ split, so as to nullify one another's vote. Hence tbey are a zero, a cipher,-a nothing, a political cofnpauy Of iiaclcilflDCBsi Our good Doctor Chown has consulted Ottawa (Prof. E. Odium, M.A., BSc.) in Canada. Here is a safe ground for effectively opposing all unjust religious legislation. While at this topic let me say one thing: It is clear to an observer that Rome goes into any com mumty to carry on its work, even where the peo pie are well provided for religiously, as witness the Norway House affair. Le������ the Various religious bodies of Canada enter upon a most strenuous campaign among the Roman Catholics, and especially amongst our fellow citizens of Quebec. Give them the light of the Gospel and let (them have a taste of personal freedom. Let them come straight to the feet of Jesus Christ the only true Priest oh earth or in heaven. When they see the , light and taste personal and religious freedom, the rule of the Jesuit priest will depart forever. may fall when overloaded wilh Guinea' hrews, The Method ifo fa a^ ourselves unduly. A more a positive objection to the course adopted h^t-the Borden Government in relation to the Indian! at Norway House. . m But they are only kicking at the wind. /They hit nothing and nobody. Our astute Roman Catholics know that the Methodism of Canada does not count in the political sphere, and therefore go forward fearlessly. Who can blame tbem? They think tbey have the right of way, and especially as they are the political ruling power at Ottawa to a large extent. ��������� ������������������ ��������� ���������* Now I would.like to say to the Rev. Doctor Chown and the Methodist officials tbat which they know full well. It-is this: tbey have never hal *an organization by which tbey could effectively oppose the political machinations of Rome. They have no organization today, and are therefore helpless. Hence the Roman Church, as well as Borden and his ministers, know that whe������ an election comes around tbe Methodists will split about even and therefore be a political nonentity. This is true largely of the Baptists, of the Presbyterians, of tbe Anglicans and of the other Protestant denominations. Religiously the Roman Catholic church alone is organized on political lines, and is a tremendous power in the land. ^ If Doctor Chown, the Methodist officials, the leading men of the Methodist Church as well as of all the other Protestant churches could see clearly one important fact, and take advantage of that fact, tbey would in a short while count politically to an extent that would throw down the present dominance of the Roman Church into utter helplessness. Then all true and public matters could be squarely legislated upon, and wisely earned through the executive processes. Here is that important fact: Iu addition to the Roman Church there is one other organization in Canada that counts politically, and exists for the purpose of preventing the unjust and determined efforts of that church in securing advant- sgreesfhat should belong to all the people, and not to any body of religionists. ... This organization is the Orange Association, which stands for "equal rights to all." One flag, one king, and eventually one language in English- speaking Canada! Let the Protestants of Canada do one of two things: Let them form an organization to squarely meet the schemes of a political sort managed by the Jesuitic party within the Roman Catholic Church; or let these Protestants who in their hearts would be glad to prevent the unjust encroachments of the Jesuits, join the Orange Association in large numbers, and strengthen the hands of tbis body of patriots, of loyal supporters of the Throne, King, Flag, National Education, the freedom of the Individual, of the Home,1 of the Community, and of the Empire. Here, then, is an invitation to the Rev. Doctor Chown and the leaders of all the Protestant bodies THE B. 0. WESTERN CATHOLIC I see by a number of that comic paper that the Rev. Austin Bonner is the editor, and I conclude 'that he is therefore editorially responsible for the contents of that Vancouver weekly. Lo, an issue just placed in my hands, I find that the "Reverend" calls mightily upon the Honorable Attorney-General Bowser for help, against the Orangemen, presumably of Ulster and Vancouver. He says:"We would like to ask what does Attorney- General Bowser propose to do about such a treasonable document?" Yes; he "would like to ask." Then why not ask, and be quick about itt I can tell him the answer he should get: "Poor silly man, keep to your prayers, and beads,1 and quit, drinking what is bad for your religions, moral, intellectual and clerical health." In the same "Western Catholic" this same Reverend, Holy Man of the Roman Church speaks of Orangemen as if they are drunkards. Hear him: "As the only ditch the LoyalUlster Orangeman is ever likely to die in is that into which be -_������**___*.��������� ���������':������---- ._?. _.**___ ;��������� .������������������������������������.���������..��������� ....��������� ���������./-.. :���������,: .-^v,.

Very pretty language from a drunken reverend! A bright and shining religious light to tbe followers of his church, and a worthy follower of the Man ol Nazareth. The Holy Reverend "Father" should read a little true history concerning the bravery of the Irish Orangemen, and he will not call tbem "cowardly poltroons" again in a hurry, if bo be honest. The Irish pre-eminently broke the power of bis pagan, savage priestcraft; and their control of Ireland. King William and the Irish-rtrue Irish, not Canaanites of the Jebusite order���������saved Ireland from foreign, anti-British control, and tied up tbe papist priests neck and crop in utter helplessness. Here is a quotation from the "Treasonable Document" concerning which Mr. Bonner wishes the Hon. Mr. Bowser to take drastic action:��������� "We (the Orangemen) are determined not only to remain members of the British Empire, but alio to defend it. if necessary, with onr lives, as was done by our forefathers at Derry, Enniskillen and other centres in our beloved country, Dear Old Ireland." Now, dear, holy, father, do you think the Attorney-General is likely to come to your assistance on the strength of this sensible Orange statement, and help you to curse the men who are among the noblest patriots of all time? Do you? Were you drunk, or sober, when you appealed to the Attorney-General? Tou know that the basic trouble of the Irish of today, as always, is the insolent, unreasonable interference of the priests, directed towards securing control of everything worth having within the bounds of the Emerald Isle. Tour own people are growing tired of your methods, and are looking to the time when they shall have intellectual, spiritual, individual and domestic freedom from priestly wiles chicanery and slimy meddling. If the Roman Catholic laity were left alone, and could freely throw in their lot as citizens of the empire, having free use of the public schools, and be a true part of the community, then there would be peace and prosperity of a sort never possible otherwise. * Were you gentlemanly, Mr. Bonner, in your treatment of public matters, no man would honor you more readily than the Orangemen whom you so despise and villify. Try and act the manly, Christian part. If not, your Vancouver Overlord will soon place you outside the control of the "Western Catholic,' as should have been done long ago. Keep sober and be just, or justice will overtake you ere long. Do not speak falsely of others, lest the truth be told of you, whieh would be worse than your misrepresentation of good men. August attending the International Geological Congress. The only other minister who ever at- tempted the long overland trip to Dawson City was Hon. Frank Oliver. As a Westener it was only a little jaunt to Oliver, but for a tenderfoot like Coderre it will be a big undertaking. There are a number of mining problems which are worrying the Yukon which will be given personal attention by Mr, Coderre while in the Far North. i Hon. W. T. White, minister of finance, is also planning a western trip tbis year. Mr. White knows the West pretty thoroughly now, he is no stranger to it. Before he accepted a portfolio in the Borden government it was his custom to make an annual trip to the West. He is only continuing his old habits. Mr. White will not go until the fall, when harvest is in progress so that he can get a more intimate acquaintance With and better idea, of financial and business conditions and can study better the problems which are facing the farmer of the West. Mr. White is particularly interested in the grain transportation problem. He was very strongly in favor of the plan of interior storage elevators and gave the western ministers strong support in their advocacy of the scheme. As the holder of tbe purse his support meant a good deal. Mr. White will go through to Vancouver and will spend some time in British Columbia. Hon. J. D. Hazen, minister of marine and fisheries, is planning an early visit to the West. He has a number of fishery problems to take up with the British Columbia authorities and will spend some time on the coast. He has particularly interested himself since coming into office in the protection of the fisheries of British Columbia from poaching and in the encouragement of white fishermen. His efforts have already been very effective. Hon. L. P. Pelletier, postmaster general, is also planning a western trip, though just when is indefinite. Western postal problems are the minister's biggest worry and he wants to get personally acquainted with Western conditions. He is at present working on the parcels post scheme���������which may delay him in his proposed trip. Hon Robert. Rogers'is of course expecting to visit the Coast this summer to inspect the big harbor development works which are being planned at Vancouver and Victoria. The minister anticipates that with the opening of the Panama Canal there will be a tremendous development of trade and is anxious that the Coast cities should be in a position to handle the increased commerce. Both Vancouver and Victoria will be made real national ports. The contract for the Vancouver work will be let very shortly, while plans at Victoria are under way. Tenders are being called at present for important changes to Rideau Hall, the official residence of the Governor-General in Canada.

Tbe Toronto News in s recent issue hss soma laudatory things to say of H. fl. Stevens, M.P*, for Vancouver. The News quotes the News-Advertiser as follows: "Mr. Stevens returns from Ottawa with the record of the best session's work that has ever been accomplished by a representative of Vancouver. A member less alert, less persistent, less adsi- quately fortified with knowledge of local requirements could not have done so well under the best conditions at Ottawa. Mr. Stevens is not a mere local representative. He takes his shsre in sll the discussions of national and Imperial policy. He has strong convictions on the larger public questions. But st this particular time, snd in view of the previous neglect of this city snd province, he had to give the closest attention to the requirements of this city and port." The News then adds: "Such praise is well merited. Mr. Stevens has addressed more than one Toronto meeting and he is known in this part of the Dominion ss sn able speaker and a forceful personality. In and out of the House he has been particularly active on behalf of the workingman, and may fairly be described as the Conservative-Labor representative for Vancouver. As such he is a consistent upholder of the national policy and of Imperial interests. He recognizes that moderate protection and British liberty are the best guarantees of the average Canadian's welfare." BOYCOTT A "boycott" is in progress in Vancouver. As to the right of such procedure we may say nothing now, but of the effectiveness and the wisdom we are satisfied that the "boycott" is usually abortive, therefore unwise. The friends of the "boy- cotters" will in many cases act as suggested, but a large per centa ge of citizens will throw their patronage in the way of the "boycotted." Human nature revolts against extreme measures and real or seeming unfairness. Persecution has always been suicidal in its final results. The sticking of tags on windows, doors and walls is offensive and arouses antagonism. This practice should be discontinued.

The latter were not of -much account Small in number, they lived apart, in the wilderness. The Pharisees were the most powerful Influence outside Rome.

X-etti exchanged pul- plta with the Rev. P. B. Stacey of Wesley Church. Mr. Stacey took as his text a clause from the 2nd verse of tbe 32nd chapter of Isaiah, i.e., "A man ahall be . . . . as a shadow of a great rock in a weary land." He pictured a desert with the ever moving, ever drifting, ever changing sand, and a large boulder standing out and above it all, with the sand banked up on the windward aide, and ln the shelter of the rock vegetation and life. He showed Israel at tbe time df the prophecy being threatened by invasion from Babylon and Assyria, and how sbe sought to safeguard herself by forming alliances with Egypt. Against such alliances the voice of the prophet thundered, telling them to foUow out God's commands and to trust in Him Instead of in horses and chariots. Mr. Stacey said that not alone was his text to be construed as concerning the coming of Christ. Here was philosophy of all human history. Great men, that is, good men, did very -materially contribute to the world's progress, to the development of a nation, of a community, of a church. They were the great rocks affording shelter. Mr. Stacey finished with an appeal for men "to put their trust in God, the Great Rock, and find perfection and salvation." Then would they become rocks. He quoted the words, "No man liveth unto himself," and said they should become rocks in the community in which they lived. "Do we stand up and stand forth as shelters and protections for those who needed it? That was the meaning of his text. By our lives and characters, by our comportment as a Christian and a citizen. Were we moral rocks? We must plant ourselves like rocks against every drift of evil and sin, that men and women and little children could come under our protection and feel safe." In the evening, Mr. Lett continued his address on the conditions of Pal- this one of the most satisfactory of pavement*. Vancouver's pavements are largely of the. same material. Eighty-two per cent, of the new paving in Minneapolis is woodblock, and Saskatoon and other Western towns are giving the wodblock paving the preference. Best results are obtained from rect- angularshaped blocks cut from South ern or Norway pine which are thoroughly seasoned and creosoted. Tbls -latter process not only lengthens the life of tbe wood but reduces its ab aorptive capacity tor water, thus preventing the weakening of the wood- fibres and reducing its tendency to buckle. The most approved method of laying this pavement used in London, New York and other large cities, ia to first make a concrete foundation four to six Inches thick on which is laid a thin layer of sand, or, better still, of moist Portland cement, Into which the blocks are closely set. s The blocks are from five to nine inches in depth and must be free from defects. Care must be taken to place tbem wltb the grain perpendicular to the roadbed. If laid with the long edgea at right angles to tbe curb the joints are apt to become worn bl the calks on tbe horses' shoes, so to prevent this and to best provide tor pos slble expansion, the paving is laid at an angle of about sixty-seven degrees with the curb. The joints are usually filled with ground cement and tbe surface of tbe paving ia then covered with a thin dressing of coarse sand, which beds into tbe pores ot tbe blocks and roughens tbem Such a pavement has the smotbness of asphalt and will last almost without repair for Often years under ordl nary conditions. It is sanitary, noiseless, eosily kept clean and has a certain springiness lacking in asphalt, and so ls much easier on horses' feet. Ex pert labor is not required in its laying and the cost of maintenance is prac tlcally nil, ao that from the standpoint of cost as well, it compares favorably with the asphalt, macadam and brick now being used in Canadian towns and cities The manufacture of wood-blocks for paving would furnish sawmill owners with a means of utUizing the many defective logs of Norway pine unfit for saw material, and, could a steady market be developed, much of the waste in connection with present lumbering and milling operations could be avoided Villagers Lock Girls In Barn and Set It on Fire St. Petersburg, Thursday.���������Eighty women were burned by villagers enraged at the importation of cheap girl laborers to work on a sugar estate in the district of Piraitin, in the province of Polta, Southern Russia, according to the Kiev newspaper, Liamin. The excited villagers first securely fastened all the means of exit from a wooden barn in which the girls were housed.

The Queen Tea Rooms ���v... 618 Granville Street A-" Luncheon and Afternoon Teas a Specialty McLsnnan's Fate Now Established Mystery which surrounded the sudden disappearance of the young bank clerk, John B. McLennan, on March 22, was cleared ^away Wednesday afternoon when Mr. Jervis, manager of Molsons Bank, positively identified the body which Police Constable McTavlsh found floating In the waters of False Creek shortly after two o'clock aa that of young McLennan. No marka of violence were found on the body. It la the opinion of the police that the unfortunate young man had stepped Into the waters of the creek in some accidental and unexplained manner. While Police Constable- McTavlsh was patrolling his beat shortly after two o'clock, Mr. J. B. Oaudie, i'45 Fifth avenue east, a Great Northern Railway foreman, informed him that he thought he had noticed a body floating in the creek. Together tbey made an investigation with the result that the body, which was floating face downwards, was taken from the water. As the body had evidently been lnthe water for some months, it was badly decomposed and presented a gruesome spectacle. The body was that of a man 5 feet 8 inches in height, and was clothed in a dark suit and black shoes and stockings. In the pockets of the clothing was found an Invitation to an At Home" from Mrs. Jonathan Rogers addressed to Mr. John McLennan, a cheque for $2 drawn on the Molsons Bank, and a little over $1 in change, the amount which the deceased young man was thought to have had in his possession at the time of his sudden disappearance.

The reports show that the. month of May.proved cold and dry. with frequent night frosts, and that these conditions, whilst favorable. to. seeding, retarded the growth of the crops sown and caused them to be unseasonably backward. The total area under wheat ln Canada ls provisionally estimated at 9,816,300 acrea. or 67,900 acrea more than in 1912, the area ln spring wheat being 8,990,600 acres, or 13,100 acres more. Oats occupy 9,608,600 acres, compared with 9,216,900 acres in 1912, an increase of 391,600 acres. Barley occupies 1,425,200 acres ,an increase of 10,000 acres; and rye 126,500 acres,' a decreaae of 9,610 acres. For wheat, barley and oats taken together the in* crease represents 459,500 acres. The estimated acreage under hay and clover is 7,475,600 acres, compared with 7,633.600 acres last year. For the three Northwest provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Al* berta, the total wheat area is estimated at 9,013,800 acres, as compared with 8,961,800 acres; that ot oats at 5,207,700 acres, compared with 4,913,* 900 acres; and that of barley at 852,- 600 acres, compared with 809,800 acres, these differences representing Increases of 52,000 acres for wheat, 293,800 acres for oats, and 42,800 acres for barley, or 388,600 acres for the three crops. On May 31 the .condition of the crops was reported as generaly favorable throughout Canada.

Experts have bean engaged in research and collec* tion with the object of making the form of these exhibits as Interesting aa possible to the general public. , It la expected that there will be a number of other features ln connection with the convention which will give, lt a distinctly unique interest to all those attending. There are assurances from a large number of forestry experts and officials, both in Canada and the United 8tates, that they will be In attendance, and It is assured that the convention will be one of the best in the history of the Association. Mr. Lawler, the secretary of the Association, reports tbat the recent advances In ideas of wise use of the forest resource are very noticeable in the West at the present time, and that it Is not unlikely, considering the demands which are being made on all sides for further scientific management, and In view of the Importance of the questions to be considered at the Winnipeg Convention, that considerable progress should be the direct outcome of the present activities. PULPWOOD EXPORT due to the decline in price of pulpwood In the local jnarket, the average price paid by' Canadian Anna being six dollars per cord, Whereas foreign inns paid an average1 price of six dollars and elghtgr-two, cants ($6.82) per cord for the pulpwood exported. Thia exported wood, had it been worked up in Canada, would have been sufficient to supply fifty-four pulp mills of the average sits operating in the oocu_tr> at present. It would have produced 771,136 tons of pulp, which, at the average export price ot 617.10 per ton as compared with the price of $S*SS paid for the manufactured pulpwood, represents a net lose to the oountry of over alx and one-half million dollars. Btatlatlos show that spruce still eon* atltutea over seventy-five per cent of the pulpwood cut, but there haa been an Increasing use of balsam fir In the eaatera provinces aad western hemlock in British Columbia, with very satisfactory results in each caae. When the sulphate process,' recently brought into use in Canada, comes Into wider use, there will be a decided Increase in the amount of fir and hemlock used for pulp. This process, which is used at present by three mills in Quebec, yields excellent pulp for the manufacture of finer grades of paper and for wrapping. The solution used for dissolving the chipped wood into pulp, consists of seventy-five per cent, sodium sulphate ("salt-cake"), and twenty-five per cent, of lime.. No acids are used, giving economy of maintenance, and almost all klnda of wood are adaptable to the process, which is, in this way especially, superior to soda and sulphite methods.' *.-*i��^fc.��-c'3.*-.,��i-'* Mtttfai^rx iit^.1*.*. /, c v. ., ���* 7 *-> ***�� -' 'l_* <* I J&f ���.

In five minutes from the time the downpour commenced the streets were four inches deep in rapidly-flowing water, and everyone was hurrying to shelter. Thunder broke at intervals and lightning played with a vividness rarely it ever experienced here. A terrific clap of thunder occurred when the rain and hail was falling its fiercest, and the report echoed brer the tops of the buildings as If the city was being bombarded. Other Districts .Escape Curiously, while the heavy downpour ln the business section pf the city astonished all, it was only a little drizzle in South Vancouver. Residents along the Fraser River heard the thunder, wondered ajt the flashes of lightning, but felt scarcely any pf the rain. Hall whitened the* lower slopes of the mountains on the Nortb bhore.

The News has no sympathy with the wild-catting carried on by some of the real estate firms of Vancouver and other cities, of properties adjoining the city of Red Deer. In many in* stances accounts of Red Deer's growth are grossly exaggerated, and in some cases actually untruthful. The truth regarding our city ls good enough, and false statements should be frowned down. For instance, a Vancouver firm reported the G.T.P. as entering Red Deer. Another stated we had Indus* tries here that do not exist in our midst; others represented the A.C.R. yards with fifty tracks, all of which are contrary to facts. Subdivision property is being sold miles out in the country at exborbitant rates, and tbe poor, deluded purchasers will soon realize tbey have been1 duped and a black eye will be given our fair name. It is time the Council and Board of trade took the question up, and warned the people exploiting farm property in the neighborhood of the city as town lot subdivisions that they would be shown up unless they ceased their nefarioua profession of apparent fraud. Red Deer la holding her.own with any of.the towns or cities of the West. While business is quiet; aa it is everywhere, tbere Is a feeling of solid ae curity in our growth in the future, and a feeling that we must maintain our good name at any cost Therefore, we wish to emphasize again tbat the truth la good enough tor Red Deer. ���������Bed Deer Newe.

I aaked; and, with no glint of Irony, ahe replied, 'Oh, they stand by us!" The poem ls from the Christian Endeavor World: The old church bell has long been cracked, Ita call was but a groan; It seemed to sound the funeral knell With every broken tone, "We need a bell," the brethren said, "But taxes must be paid; We have no money we can spare��������� Just ask the Ladies* Aid." The shingles on the roof were old; The rain came down in rills; The brethren slowly shook their heads And spoke of "monthly bills." The chairman of the board arose And said, "I am afraid That we shall have to lay the case Before the Ladies' Aid." The carpet had been patched and patched Till quite beyond repair, And through the aisles and on the steps The boards showed hard and bare, "It is too bad," the brethren said; "An effort must be made To raise an interest on the part Of members of the Aid." *******4 ��������� * ****** I'! . ���������<���������< 4i4'H"l 4 *** v II tin < I 14 * *��������� STANDING PRIOE8--NOT SPEOIAL ' PERJ_B.

CHAPTER XXXI. The Wife of His Bosom It was late ln tbo afternoon, and snowing. Johnson, tbe friendly waiter who had assisted Paul to catch the mall train to Weyberne, stood In the 'ball of the "Pendennle." watching through the half-glass door the slow, feathery swirl of flakes. He waa musing upon the winter's early advance, when a man ot fine physique passed the bon palings, entered the gateway, land aacended the steps of the hotel. The stranger was the tallest and the broadest man he had ever been called upon to behold, and Johnson looked M him with Interest as he pushed open the half-glass door. He was hand* some, too, be saw In a decided satisfactory way. There was no shillyshallying about It the first glance chronicled the undlsputable fact and tbe second encouraged and maintained tbe good impression. His features were good, remarkably good; a tali complexion bad been colored and tinted to a nicety by Nature's artiste���������the son and the wind; tbe eyes were grey, and had a look ln tbem aa lt tbey oould focus aa object some distance ahead The bronse moustache, the ends having aa upward curve, was dewOy damp, and glistened to the light as the door swung to behind him. "Mr. Farley in?" be inquired, in a pleasant slightly anxious tone. Johnson answered ln the affirmative, and hesitated when, tbe straagei asked to be shown the way to his presence. He was unwilling to disturb Mr. Farley, he said, because tbe last time he peeped into tbe little sitting room behind tbe hall tbe gentleman fast asleep. Tbe teal truth of ly he entered and closed tho door soil ly on Johnson. The room was ia semi-darkness am comfortably warm still, though the fin had 'burned low. The couch stood be tween the fireplace and the table, am Paul lay there asleeep, the woundei hand in a black silk sling, and th. other tucked under his head. Fell: tip-toed across the room and bent ove: the couch. Paul awake, alert his nerves on thi stretch, looking out for danger slg nals, and Paul asleep, unconscious a criticism, the muscles of his face re taxed, the emaciation, the wearinesi the hollows beneath his eyes plainl- -visible, were totally different persons Felix had nb idea he was so thin, ei Worn, so clearly, unmistakably, ill, am awhile back, a month, sure, be wai fairly plump and looked bo uncommon ly well. This was a revelation; Felt- was gaining an insight Into what Far ley had suffered, what he had endure, while unswervingly prosecuting thi physical and mental struggle he haf waged in order to attain his doubtfu inglorious ends. Presently, he drop ped on one knee and looked mon closely at the careworn face. Pan was so still, preternaturally still scarcely breathing, that���������a wave a sickening fear swept over him���������area' heavens! was the prise to be sbstchel trom blm within an ace of bis graap' - The steady gase, the soul's yearning Influenced the sleeper; he stirred, th. heavy eyelids lifted, and the gree' dark eyes were fixed on the squlre'i 'face. '.���������������������������' '���������Hello. Farley!" be said, smlllni suddenly; "what cheer?" Paul turned bis feet to the floor, sai up, and stared at his visitor. "Have you come to stop barer' hi aaked anxiously, a hunted expression In bis eyes. "No, not bere." Fella' returned quick |y, now perfectly able to Interpret thi look tbat pussled him at times; "I'n on the other side, Just down the street you know, Paul, at the Friar's Heel 1 wanted to see Hare, and I wanted tc see you. I Just gave Austin a look, sety my traps down yonder, had a brusl up, and stepped over here to ask yot to come back and have a bit of dlnnei with me. There's turtle soup, red mul let a broiled fowl, and a bottle of Due de Marne, 71 vintage, to wash it dowj ���������does the menu appeal to you?" Paul crossed bis legs, leaned bad and smiled. "Tou are very kind," he said, grate fully, "very kind; but I don't feel ai all peckish; ln tact, I am off my feed and." nodding at the Utter on thi table, "I have as much as I can get through with to-night' "Wbat have you bad to eat to-day?' Felix asked, seating himself on th* couch and ignoring the table. "To eat? Oh, I don't know, any thing Josnson likes to bring; I havi no particular appetite." "Wbat Is lt you are doing?", glano ing at the heterogeneous mass of pa pers on the table. ' "Odds and ends. There are som. 'communications from Wiseman con corning that estimate, three of 8ii Thomas's speeches, some articles oi my pwn, a greek examination papei iter Tom Hargrave, and one or twe more things of a similar character." "What do you work on?

"Good gracious, nol 1 am trying foi a post under Government There's 81r Thomas's letter about it on thi table close to you, if you care to tool at it" Instead of looking at the letter.Fo lix looked at blm, and while he gased Paul rose, placed a lump of coal on the flre with a pair of brass tongs and remained lounging tbere. his back against the chimney-piece, toying with his cigarette ease. "Do you stand a good chancer Felix asked. "Medium; I have an excellent test* monlal from Sir Thomaa. Will yo* have a smoke?" "I wonder whether yon will do me s favor?"

Lee in an impressive manner. On the suggestion of Mayor Gray, endorsed by the Business Men's Association, all places of business were closed between the hours of 1 and 4 as a period of mourning and a mark of respect for the deceased.

Ill do it without the sacrifice on your part. Why should you make a. martyr of yourself, Felix? It won't be the easiest thing ln the world; bad habits are not easily shunned. But I will do it to oblige you, because you ask me." '. ."Thank you," Felix returned, snapping the box and dropping it Into his waistcoat pocket "Now, Is it possible you will grant me another act of grace? Please dont huff me, because I came up to town expressly to ask you this." Paul laughed, hitched bis heel on to the fender rail and slipped his uninjured band Into bis trousers pocket. "I. would do anything in the world frw aaked me, provided, aa I aald ha tore, lt were possible." I, "WeU.

"It's kind; it's overwhelmingly good of you,"���������-Paul swallowed something that made his voice husky, and resumed���������"but it's out ot the Question; 1 couldn't afford It, and I haven't the time." "I can afford it, and that Is all that la necessary. Ton see, this shoulder is a confounded nuisance to me; I thought, perhaps, you wouldn't mind valeting me for a bit; I should not be any real trouble. There Is not much beyond getting into my coats that I can't do for myself." "It's not that, Paul, said, moving restlessly and changing bis feet on tho finder.' "I wish I could be of use tq you; I wish I could help you. Tou have been doing things for me from the first moment I met you until now. I would give ten years ot my life, Felix, to. be able to return the least ot all kindnesses you have shown me. I wish I could go with you." "Why can't you ? It won't cost you a penny." "Beggars can't be choosers," he said, smiling; "I havo my living to gat" "Get It when you return." "This appointment would be snapped up; it's one ln a thousand. I havo applied for it, and I must stick to my t-fluns. Besides, I am still ln Sir Thomas's pay. I am working for him, else I could not stay herf. I am sorry. When do you go?" "Not at all; I am not going alone," he said, and a dreadful uncomfortable silence ensued. . "What about Miss Agnes?" Paul von* fitured nervously; "couldn't she go?" "I daresay sbe could, but I dont want her. I am in quest of a companion as much as a valet." Paul looked at bis toot on tbe fen. der while * elix stared at the fire. "Paul," he said nt last, looking up Into tba dark troubled face, bis own rather whl^, Ws^grsy eyes^very witt- ful, "It's all humbug about the companion valet; I didn't know how to get it out, but I want you to go with me r*ge my wife���������ni my dear wife���������wjll |W������?"

Paul gave a shivering, sobbing sigh, raited his free arm, and laid it around toe squire's neck. "Tou know this thing, yon know me aa I ana���������vain, careless of the welfare of others, unmindful ot the misery I brought to those who were kind to me. Tou know, you have witnessed my selfishness, you have teen to what lengths I would go, you taw death Itself made a stepping-tono to fame��������� and yet you ask me to become your wife���������I don't understand it" "Don't try," he said, soothingly, stroking the glossy hair; "don't trouble, don't bother this dear head about anything more. I am here to aee after you, to take care of you, to think for you, and no man ever knew better than I what he's about It's a wife I'm after, a friend, a companion, a comrade. It's the dear woman I've longed for, that I've begged Heaven to send me. I once told you whoever or whatever she was, when she came I should take her to my heart, and not question the Wisdom tbat sent her. I am not taking note of the garb you were sent in; I am thanking Heaven #ou are here; that a wine, loving Prov* Idence opened a way for me to grasp the answer to my prayer when lt came. I am so happy, so thankful, so blessed, I am well nigh dazed with the wonderful knowledge that the grand festival In my life has come! Now, if yon cry, Paul, I shall cry, too, and lt won't do for the attentive Johnson to come ���������nd catch us two fellows crying in one another's arms���������eh?" Paul smiled through his wet eyelashes aa Felix turned up his chin. wiped the tears from hit cheeks; and tried to erase the blue shade from hit upper Up. "WlU lt wash oft?" he asked. "No," Paul said; "but lt will wear oft" y ��������� "How long will the process take?" "A week perhaps, but not longer," he said; kissing the hand that was exploring his face; "you mutt know, you must feel, you must think, I have done wrong, and you ought to punish melt you don't, perhaps God will." There was a silence, ln which Fella held Paul's chin in the hollow of hit hand, and looked deep down Into the depths of his glorious eyes. Finally he laid his cheeks on the hot, damp forehead, a world of tenderness and Ineffable love in the action. "Tou will never hear a word of that sort a word of reproach, trom me," he whispered; "lf you hadn't done what you call wrong I should havo dragged out a dull, lonely existence at the Manor and died a bachelor. I haven't room to feel more on tbat point and at to punishing you," his voice shook, "I tried correcting you once, Paul, and tbo memory of that punishment will haunt me to my dying day���������lt will spoil my whole life. Tou have no idea how lt has worried me, how lt teases me; I've never had a good night's rest since. Directly I close my eyes I begin that thrashing business. I can't get away from lt Last night I was ln a dreadful state; it seemed I had battered yon to a pulp, and���������" Paul lifted the arms about bis neck, turned round, ad confronted the distress in the grey eyes with a face ex* prtsslve of the liveliest astonishment 'Why, Felix," he exclaimed, rising and standing on the hearth, while the squire subsided into the chair he vacated, "you don't mean to aay you bare given that���������that 'rotten show,' ss Tom Hargrave politely puts it, another thought? I received no more than I deserved. It you had thrashed me evety day while I was at Weyberne I should only have had my de* sorts. I did not really mind lt; lt was not such pain and. suffering to me as you seem to imagine. The chemistry of the thing is this. Undoubtedly where the soul heralds an attraction, mind acts on mind, the Influence being'intensified and Increased by the heat of an excited Intellect, whereby the subtle sympathies would at once be potent and plastic I don't pretend to define or understand the process, but I'U swear that in the excitement that night your mind met mine and engendered a like heat; it radiated and kindled a coirespondlng passion. Tou were actively Inscnttble. I was passively Insensible; in the heat and mental commotion you were uncon* tdout of striking, and Iii tht tenacious hold of your will and mind over mine I waa equally unconscious of the blows struck���������the tact of my riding Tom'a machine the next evening to Bast Weyberne proves that. I waa not hurt, or, laboring under tome tort of in* fluenct, I waa not aware of any undue discomfort" * ��������� "Tou want me to believe yon never felt that thrashing?" Felix naked* look- ini up Into tbe dark, earnest eyes; ���������*! ������nreur������rft nm-ao--donse at to be unable to absorb such plain ethics; em't you go further and prove it never took place at all? The only antidote i know of for a mind poisoned like mine is marriage, Paulus. I don't sty It will cure tbe disease, but it will allay tome bf the irritation. When can it be. heart of my heart?" "When you like," he said quietly, smiling; "I am willing to sacrifice all feminine prerogatives to your peace of mind." "Then if we are married and on the set within tbe next fortnight I need not feeel I bave bullied you into it." 'Wbat about Agnes and Dr. Hunter, do they know?" Paul ashed suddenly, sitting down on the couch, and remembering Cecilia Hay and her womanly attributes. "Tbe doctor won't approve of this alliance." "They bavent an inkling at present" he laughed, twitting round to look nt blm. "and Jack's approval is neither asked for nor wanted*- the whole question consists of whether you approve of me. Agnes will stay with the Hargraves until we return, ���������nd, what is more, postpone her marriage n month. 1 wonder wbat Matter Jsck will say to that���������yon look very white, friend Paul; bave I tired you?" "Tou are not likely to do that. Felix, I���������" Felix rote and looked at him anxl* outly. "There is an hour before we dine," he said, taking out hla watch, "I shall order you a plate of toup; yon will sat It to please me, I know." He went outside to waylay Johnson, and ordered a small quantity of soup with a glass of the best port stirred ln, waited for it and brought It in himself. Paul ate lt without a demur while he meekly watched Felix tidy the table, and without a tingle protest tllowed him to collect the scattered .mass of papers, dump them together in one irregular, mixed pile, tnd tie them around with a piece of string. , Felix placed the empty plate on the bracket in the hall and returned to make himself responsible for the Invalid's general colnfort He turned Paul's feet upon the couch, arranged the cushions with exactitude under hie head and shoulders, busied himself immensely, and finally came around to 'the front leaned over, and looked at him. "I should very much like to take you in my arms and kiss you, but I am afraid of upsetting your dlsorganlseed equilibrium; there ls such a quantity of extraneous love pent up here," touching his chest "and you. seem so frail I am nervous about touching you; I am more than half afraid of crushing the breath from that slim, lissom body. What shall I do with you, you dainty, delicate morsel of humanity?" "Oh, I shall be all right" Paul said with quivering lips, "now the trouble Is removed. Tou know, Felix, I have hsd a good deal of worry one way and another, and you yourself have been a fruitful source of anxiety to me." "I can return the compliment there, friend Paul," he said, kneeling beside the couch; "you've played fast and loose with my feelings, you've hacked my heart about just anyhow, and now I expect to be compensated���������one kiss. my soul, to live on thronghlEe night; will you kiss me���������Pauline. Paulua. Paul���������I'll stick to Paul, I'm used to that���������will you? do you call that nervous flutter a kiss? Dash it all, and from a fellow, too, who hss served an apprenticeship at that sort ot thing. Now, I'm a novice; I've never gone courting maid, widow or wife, but by Jove! I think I can surpass that" Hitherto Paul had been kissed by women, principally by a woman to whom be objected, to whom he entertained an instinctive aversion, and he was "naturally considerably taken aback by Felix's masterful embrace, by tbe enthusiaslum, the verve> the passion of his kisses. The pressure of the strong arms hurt his bones, and the heavy moustache pressed tightly over his mouth stopped'his breath. He was making an altogether new and startling acquaintance with Felix. Felix had suddenly burst upon him in a new light; Felix was no longer a dear friend, a. good comrade, but a strong, overpowering, passionate lover. The experience was bewildering, rather alarming; he felt confused, suffocated, hysterical. He loved Felix, he could not resist him, he could not hold his life "through his lips! The hysterical idea, the foolish imagery ot a nervous system out ot gear frightened him, and Felix was all at onoe brought to his senses by a feeble flood of unlooked-for tears.

(Written for the Western Call by Frank Li. Vosper.) On the moors above the village of St. Neot is an enclosure known as the "Crow pound," and the legend connected with it is this: When Saint Neot was a boy he was employed by a farmer to keep the crows away from the wheat, Now it happened on a certain Sunday morning that young Neot was sent as usual to keep' away the crows, with strict orders not on any account to quit the field until night had sent them to their roosts In the woods that-then, as now, probably crowned the hills above the valley'of the Fowey river. But the young saint's heart yearned to join In the service that wat being, held down In the valley where the handsome old structure now stands that for many centuries has borne bis name and which was being conducted according to the beautiful long before Augustine came to bring that church under the domination of Rome. Accordingly, when the fanner, who was also a devout worshipper, happened to see blm engaged in the service, He did not interrupt bin., but on coming out of church he called blm and rebuked htm sternly for neglecting his work. In reply to bit master's scolding Neot led blm Into the churchyard and, to tbe surprise ot all tbe congregation, pointed to the field where the crows were penned in one corner inside a slight mound of earth and stones that the young saint had built around them, with strict orders to stay there. Now, l do not suppose there Is a single Cornish man, woman or child tbat believes tbat tbis quaint old legend is literally true, but, strange to tell, there are hundreds of people in British Columbia, Including many members of the Government, who are simple enough, or pretend to be, to imagine tbat one and immorality can be restricted to one corner of a city. That, in fact, the right way to keep a city clear ot undesirable characters is to allot one part of the town to them, and, following Saint Neot's example, tell them politely to stay there. On my recent visit to Cornwall 1 stood in tbe old "Crow pound" and, looking down on the lovely valley ot St. Neot and up at the wild, rugged moorlands above me, I recalled those and kindred legends when an adder, one of the few poisonous reptiles found ln Cornwall, came out of a furze buih and was quickly killed. Moral���������"Crow pounds" snd "Segregated" districts swarm with adders. But will they stay there? New Use for Pretty Wives Certain motorists have discovered a method of getting all repairs on the road done free of charge and without lifting a finger themselves. The other day a man was motoring through Surrey to the south coast when he came upon a car by the roadside, with a young woman trying to get one of the back tires off. She was a very charming girl, and gracefully accepted his offer of assistance. He effected the repair for her. getting very dirty. She thanked him and he went on. After luncheon at a hotel a little later, he wat sitting in the smoking room when the girl drove up with another woman and two men in the car. The men came in laughing and talking, and one said to the other: "That's a splendid idea of yours, deserting the car and leaving your wife to prevail on kind passers-by to effect your repairs while you sit at a safe distance and watch." The other replied: "She thought of it herself. One day we had a puncture, and I left her a few minutes to go to a cottage nearby When I returned I found four people offering to help. Of course, on that occasion we did the repair ourselves." THE WawaBN Q__tf_ Ernest Shaw, D.C. CHIROPRACTOR Has removed his office '" 'to..' Suite 307, Lee Bldg.

I * ********** ������������������ \\ I I M *** I M ********* ***** Pugilist Acquitted Calgary, Alta:, June 24.���������'.'Not guilty," was the verdict in the trial of Arthur Pelkey, heavyweight pugilist, who was tried for manslaughter as a result of the death in the ring here May 24 of Luther McCarty, white heavyweight champion. Chief Justice Harvey's charge to the jury was unfavorable to Pelkey, but the verdict acquitting the defendant was reached after forty-five minutes of deliberation. As Pelkey stepped from the prisoner's box he was warmly congratulated. Prise Fight Defined Chief Justice H.arvey defined for the first time what constitutes a prize fight ln the Dominion of Canada. He held that an encounter with fists, privately arranged for, was a prise fight, and was not permissible. Hit, interpretation of the statute, lf lt stands,' puts an end to all boxing contests in the Dominion where the authorities are inclined to interfere. The Verdict of the Jury was to the effect thit the contest was a prize fight, but the jury held against the belief that Pelkey had inflicted a blow which dislocated the neck of his antagonist. Precedent Established .\\ The'Jury, by its verdict, memorial- lies the provincial legislature to pa_s a law defining specifically what constitutes a prize fight, and prohibiting the staging of such contests in Alberta in the future. His lordship objected to the jury's recommendation, asserting that his definition of the law and the decision of the jury established a precedent and made further legislation unnecessary. His lordship also informed Pelkey that had the jury adjudged him guilty he would have Imposed no sentence on him, as the case was more to test the law rather than to fix the guilt of the defendant Aasassins of Grand Vizier Executed Constantinople, June 24.���������Twelve of the men sentenced to death in con* hection with the assassination of Mah* moud Schefket Pasha, the late grand vizier, were executed this morning in Bayazide Square. ������ The place was surrounded by a double cordon of armed military police, troops and city police, but there was no disturbance. / The condemned men walked to the scaffold with firm step. ; Several of them delivered addresses from the gibbet.
