Address: AN OLD HAND, Box 363, Winnipeg, Man. Crlppsn's Captor Retires After TweJV ty-Flve Years on the Force. A London despatch says: As &*. already been made public. Chief Inspector Dew, the man who raced across the ocean to capture Crippeu, the principal detective ���������io'ure ������t������ t^r important criminal cases in the 1&������* twenty-five years, is to retire from Scotland Yard on Dec. 5. "1 have had nearly twenty-mi������. years of it. and that's enough for ������ young man," he said. "But 1 feel far too young to givo up work altogether, and after my retirement I thall start as a private enquiry agent. 1 am not resigning in consequence ol any attacks tnat were made ou me in certain quarters at the beginning oi uie Crippeu case." Chief inspector Dew is only forty seven years old. He was barely nineteen when he joined theAMetropoiitan Police Force, where he won early pro motion. He was one of the detectives in vesiigatiug the series of Jack the Ripper crimes, and it was for his energ> m this work that he was given tne rank of detective sergeant. He ro=e rapidly, and became inspector at Bow street, which led to his gaining the post of chief inspector four years agc# in succession to.Mr. Froewt. His career has been one long, adventurous criminal hunt, and it is noteworthy tnat though he had to deal with many dangerous men he nevur carried a revolver until the hunt after Crippeu. and has omy u3ed uaudcurt's about three times. Among the people he arrested recently are:��������� Miss Kobinson and Miss Hamilton, witnesses ui the Druce case. "Harry the Vaiet," the expert jewel thiel. who stole $100,000 worth of jewels from the Duchess of Sutherland. Conrad Harms, the bank swindler Dr. Crippen. These are ouly the more striking cases, but there have been hundreds of minor arrests, and latterly M r Dew. entrusted with some special iuA quiries for the War Griice,with regard to. stolen cartridges, ran the tuief to earth. All the important investigation.- came his way; he frequently had to leave for the continent at, a uiouieutV notice to secure the arreat of some international swindler. He has often said that, while it i? imagined that detection of erime is now made easier by the use of telegrams and improved locomotion, thru-mil is tbat the work is far more di:- ticult to-day. Criminals are better educated than they used to be, the means of escapf are much easier, and there are =*/ many ways by which a wanted uiao may cover up his tracks.

Edenbridge, Sask. (Special).���������"It was one box ot Dodd's Kidney Pills that fixed me up." This is the cheerful answer Mr. Sam. D. Vickar is giving his inquiring neighbors in this district. Everybody around here knows that for three years he has been suffering from Lumbago, Now he'a strong ond well again. "My Lumbago developed from a cold," Mr. Vickar goes on to say. "My head would ache. I was always tired and nervous. I had a bitter taste in my mouth in the morning, was troubled with di?,?.y spells, and was always thiisty. The doctor told me I had Lumbago, but did not help me very much, Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me." Dodd's Kidney Pills went straight to the root of the trouble. They cured his kidneys. The cured kidneys strained the uric ncid out of the blood and Mr. Vickar's Lumbago vanished. Dodd's Kidney Pills aro no cure-all. They simply-,, sure sjck kidneys. They never fail to do that.

A recent report of the Department of Agriculture and Technical Instruction of Ireland make ya significant showing of the increasing material importance of that country to the Bnt ish Empire. It appears that Ireland rapidly js becoming the granary of the United Kingdom. During 1909 Ireland snipped more cattle into the mainland than all other countries combined. Irish farmers sold their customer- across the United Kingdom $17,641.60*2 worth of butter and $13,933,846 worth of eggs. Poultry to the value of $4,- 171,933 and bacon andr hams; to the aggregate of $16,870,730 went to swell the trade account. When England discovers thot her people must depend on Ireland for the bread they eat, the grievances of the island will acquire more than political importance. A Pioneer Huntsman. Mr. Hesketh Prichard,, the novelist, whose articles on exploration in Labrador, published in Fry's Magazine, are arousing so much interest, has from earliest manhood been a great- wanderer. He has been a pioneer, huntsman in many remote .corners oi the world, notably Patagonia, whose unexplored wilds he traversed at-the beginning of his career. He,had also, distinguished himself as a cricketer;; and bowled so well for Hampshire that he played for the Gentlemen against the Players at Lord's in 1904. when he captured eight wickets ami made a big stand with F. 8. Jackson. The Gentlemen had nine wickets down for 112; against a score ol 327 by the Players.

BANK OF Report of Annual Meeting The 93rd annual general meeting of the"' shareholders of the Bank of Montreal was held on December 5th, with Mr. AR. B. Angus, the president, in the chair. The annual statement submitted was one of the best in the. history of this financial institution. The - Bank of Montreal which Ms so ultimately bound up with the financial history of this country has become the strongest of our financial institutions. At the present her total assets have reached the enormous sum of $240,000,000. With her 147 branches scattered ^throughout the country the bank is able to keep in close touch with the business interests of every community, and is doing her full" Bhare in promoting the financial and industrial development of the country. v . The annual report showed a balance of profit and loss on Oct, 31, 1909, of $603,798, The profits for the year ended Oct. 31, 1910, after deducting charges of management and making full provision for all bad and doubtful debts, was $1,797,992, making the total profits $2,401,789. From this was deducted four quarterly dividends at 2 1-2 per cent., amounting altogether to $1,440,000, leaving n balance of .profit and loan ourried forward Vint; the end of October, 1910, of $961,789. A further examination,, of. the' report shows that the bank has deposits bearing interest of ovor $154,000,000, while considerably over $43,000,000 is on deposit not bearing interest. Dur^ ing the year '''the deposits had increased by $18,000,000, an indication of the bank's growth. The nolo clr- culntion of the bnnk amounted to $14,502,000, being slightly larger than the paid-up capital. Tho bank haH a rest or reserved account of the largo sum of $12,000,000. Tlie amount of call and short loans in Grcnt Britnin and the United States wns reduced by $14,000,000 during tho year and now amounts to $"1,018,000.

It Js tone thing to make cake, candy, Jellies, custards and creams in a place with which one has been acquainted through years of childhood and girlhood ���������when another housewife has-purchased the necessary utensils and planned all the conveniences���������and quite another thing to stand in an empty kitchen which must be furnished by one's self, and for which one must "think out" all the requisites. To the bride whose income is large the task of furnishing the kitchen and the kitchen pantry is one that requires much thought. To the bride whose income is limited it seems a serious task, and one upon which she should not "enter unadvisedly or light- - ly." Poor little woman! In her new life and new home there are many times in which these words of the marriage service come back to her with a force ������ that is almost terrifying. Before buying anything for the kitchen ��������� decide on the furniture to be put In this s impuitant room���������the most important, Dy ; ' the way. in the new home If your purse will allow, cover the floor with a I --good quality of linoleum. This is ex- ; pensive, but is well worth the price . paid for it, as it outwears any other floor covering. If you cannot have this, ! do not get a cheap oilcloth. This wears in holes in an alarmingly short time and Jocks ragged "and untidy. If linoleum is : ^ quite beyojy^your^means, have your , ", "" floor paintea- a light yellow. Arrange f to have this done some days toefore you j moye into your cottage or apartment, so - < that It may get very hard before using; otherwise the sticky paint will soon rub off. For the sake of the paint, and etill mo^e for the sake ot your feet, have several squares' of carpet or rugs laid -.' ono the floor. One of these must be in -' front of the table at which you stand to do your mixing, another in front of the sink. Standing on a hard floor is very \ tiring to the feet and back.

If j. ou want to khgw how uncleanly this habit is, lift the tub covers in the kitchen or laundry where the average domestic is employed. You will be glad to close them again, for there is pretty sure to be a disagreeable odor about, them. To hide a soiled article is not to get rid of it. After eacli using, wash the tubs, adding a little soda to the hot water with which you do this. This removes the deposit of grease from the inside of the tub and also destroys disagreeable smells. There are times when one must use the tops of the tubs as an extra table, as, for Instance, when one is doing a /7jP#p//r/fr>/?/<?/rV/k 7a6k XmtmMmmmsaassMmi great deal of cooking, preserving or pickling. At other times try to keep them free from dishes; cooking utensils, etc. Have the kitchen crockery of plain white stoneware that can be easily replaced. Or, if you prefer decorated china, choose a simple blue-and-white pattern. Heavy china gaudily decorated is in poor taste. A half dozen cups and saucers and an equal number of plates, with a teapot, sugar bowl, several pitchers and mixing'bowls,'will be all the crockery that you actually require. If you have only yourself and John in the family, you can get along with half of the number mentioned. As to the cooking utensils, avoid elaborate articles or so-called labor-savers until you are sure that they are what they purport to be. Some of them are so complicated that they add to instead 'of lessening your work. In this connection I take the liberty of quoting from a little book in the Young Farmer's Practical Library series, entitled "From Kitchen to Garret." a 'practical housekeeping volume-that has recently come to my notice. In the chapter on the kitchen the author says: "There have been many lists given by various writers from which the young housekeeper is supposed to order her kitchen necessities in the way of utensils. To the ordinary householder the number suggested is' appalling. Some of the articles mentioned she has never heard of; others she does not know how to use. and some seem to her as labor- makers rather than lahor-savcr3. To the initiated they may mean ease in cooking; t������i her they stand for unnecessary complications. I will give a list of the ordinary utonsilp that it is well to 'hnve. and to this number the reader may add what she wishes. Some of these I name are necessities to success ful cooking; others are* simple aids to the ho������i?eneeper." Then comes a list which I will repeat for the benefit of the bride-housewife; but r war t to remind her first that the origmajior of this list had in mind the housemother of a family of fajr size. I would therefore counsel the young matron to use her own Judgment as to the number of utensils she buys, in many cases dividing the number here given by two���������that is, where a half dozen pans are suggested, purchase for your small household but three; where two or three utensils are named, get but one. A COMPLETE LIST "Three double boilers of varying size3, three saucepans, an iron or agate soup pot, a preserving kettle; two tea kettles, one large, one small; two coffee pots; a griddle, of soapstone if possible; a waffle iron, two frying pans; a frying basket, or a large, deep kettle for frying fritters, crullers and doughnuts; four pudding dishes of different capacities, six, layer-cake tins; two cake- tins, each with a funnel in the center; two loaf-cake tins, four bread pans, a bread raiser, a dozen muffin rings, eighteen small muffin pans, a dozen gem cups of earthenware, two pudding molds, two jelly: molds, two covered roasters or dripping pans, a ham boiler, an asparagus boiler; two dlshpans, one for pots and pans, the other, for ths china and glaSs; two soup strainer's;'~a colander, a flour sifter, two cake cutters, a breadknife, a large carver, a vegetable knife, a long-handled flesh- fork, two long mixing spoons, one egg- whip, one eggbeater,' one vegetable pregs, one meat grinder, three pi?plates, one wooden spoon, one chopping bowl, a .chopping knife, a pastry or breadboard, four mixing bowls, three quart bowls, a quart measure, a pint measure, one large and one small pitcher, a cake- turner, a split spoon, a ladle, a can- opener, two graters, a nutmeg grater, a rolling-pin, two tin palls with covers, two funnels, a corkscrew, two gridirons or broilers.

To have th& proper utensils, and to understand thor? oughly the use of each, is the secret of good cooking.

Aa to your friend and tho barrel of flour, there are so lew families that think of buying more than a twenty-ilvn ov ill/ -pound socle that thoy aro liko tho needle in tho haymow.

Pending the completion of the documents in this case, thenames of the purchaser and seller are being reserved from publication. Steps are "being taken to have a government meterolog- ical station at Creston. The name of a well known rancher' ���������who has had previous experience in keeping weather statistics and handling the delicate instruments supplied by the government for the purpose in the per -on of Mr. J. Heath lias been submitted to the authorities as the best man available for this work, and it is expected that he will shortly be appointed as ihe representative for the Provincial Government Meteriological Department ir. the Creston Valley. The new Anglican Church is now about completed arid as soon as the pews arrive fiom Cranbrook, services will be lield there. This church is situated on an ideal building site in the Dow Addition and commands a grand view of the ever fam- -g| ous Kootenay Flats. The structure itself is quite unique and is so arranged that it can be enlarged at a future date. The building of such a creditable church edifice, on this choice location reflects great credit on the church officers having the matter in hand and must also be a source of gratification to the Rev.. P. C. Hayman, the incumbent of this prosperous congregation. No community anywhere can permanently prosper without churches and schools which is a matter of history. Creston is now, however, well provided in this respect and what is wanted is more people of the right type. Manager Bradley of the P. Burns Co., has been advised from headquarters that there will be a slight advance in both wholesale and retail prices of beef in the near future. This will probably last for the next two or three months. Frank Lewis, mine foreman at Blairman, Alta., and son-in-law of T. D. Bunce, will arrive this week with his family to reside here permanently. Mr. Bunce says that there are yet more of his relatives to follow him here in the near future, Hugh McCreath says that last Saturday he saw two crows and a robin, while J.A. Lidgate declares that he saw a Robin Red Breast doing business in the way of locating a new home near town a few days ago. Does this mean early spring? Elswhere in this issue will be found the Erickson and Canyon City school reports which will be interesting reading for our many subscribers throughout this valley who have children attending these schools. These reports as well as the report of the Creston Public Schools, which appeared iu our last issue, show the progress, general conduct and attendance of the various schools for the mouth of January. Father Beck left Cranbrook for the coast on the 6th inst, having been called to Vancouver by wire, and will therefore be unable to hold services at Creston on Sunday, the 12th inst. J.N.Bunce arrived in town last Tuesday from Kalispcll, Montana. Mr. Bunce is a son of T. D. Bunce, the iocal merchant. When he left Kalispcll a few days ago it was 18 below zero, and there was no snow. He is greatly pleased with the Creston climate. The Synod of the Dioceses of Kootenay will meet at Rcvtlstoke on the 15th and 16th inst, Rev. 1\ C Hayman will leave on Monday next to attend the Synod meeting.

I would, therefore, take the liberty of requesting yon to grant cue tbe **use of ^our vslu^b^e columns to direct the attention'of all importers of nursery stock to Section 4 of the Horticultural Regulations, which provides thac certified invoices of all shipments of nursery stock, trees and planes, muse be furnished to the Inspector of Fruit Pests, at Vancouver, at the time when such shipments are delivered for inspection. The reason for this is that when a case of goods arrives, we know by the invoice what it should contain, and aro prepared to check the contents over with the invoice. This greatly expedites the business of inspection and enables us to deal promptly with all importations. It is clearly in the interests of the importers that we should be able to detect any mistake that flaay have been made iu shipping the goods. All tbis was carefully considered when tho Horticulture Rules were adopted, bnt unfortunately many of the importers neglect to comply with this Regulation I would therefore urge that a general abservance of tbis rule be adopted. The importations of nursery stock are large!j ou the increase, aud I am jusc completing additional facilities for inspection. > Our stafiE will be doubled this year, so that whatever delays mny have occured iu the past may be avoided in the fu.ure if the importers comply with the regulation above referred to.

Theft of the "Gainsborough Duchess." Is Recalled by Death of Great Politician, Art Lover and Litterateur Ih London���������His Generosity and Ready Wit Did Much for Manchester Ship Canal Scheme. At the advanced age of 85 Sir William Agnew, Bart., the distinguished art dealer and collector, has passed away at his London residence. The late baronet, whose benefactions were on a princely scale, took a prominent place alike in the political, artistic, and literary life of his time, and retired only a few years ago from the direction of the famous picture-dealing firm of Thomas Agnew & Sons, and the chairmanship of Messrs. Bradbury, Agnew & Co., proprietors of "Punch." Born at Manchester, he was the son of Mr. Thomas Agnew, who was mayor of Salford in the year of the Great Exhibition, 1861. Quite early in life young Agnew took a keen interest in politics, but it was not until comparatively late in life that he stood for Parliament. In 18S0 he was elected for South-east Lancashire, and five years later he undertook to lead what was thought to be a forlorn hope in the Stretford Division, with the result that he headed the poll. At the Home Rule split he followed Mr. Gladstone, and lost his seat in consequence. An intimate friendship existed between Sir William and his chief, and the famous art dealer engineered an Innocent conspiracy to smuggle i* presentation portrait into the G.O. M.'s house on the occasion of his golden wedding. He also played a prominent part in the foundation oi the National Liberal Club. But it CANADIAN PEACHES ABROAD. Fruit In Britain Has Been an Object Lesson. The successful shipment of Canadian .peaches en a commercial scale, to the markets of Greatr Britain, will mark the year i9io as the beginning I of a new phase in the development of j the tender fruit industry in Canada.

And there can be no doubt that this game was football, but what its outstanding features were can only be a matter of guesswork. The game was confined to the lower classes; no rules existed'for its control; the contests seem to have been more in the nature of general: scrambles, the goals being placed at either end of a town or street; and the number of players seeux to have been unlimited. ... ��������� .A'- "'���������',.--'. Although popuiar.jfit met with op- isition from 'the.-'Authorities.. Edward IT.,7 in 1314, forbade football under pain of imprisonment, owing to the "great, noise in the city caused,by , hustling over large balls, from which culture, as represented by the Dairy and Cold Storage Commissioner, early in the season made arrangements to purchase a quantity of peaches-to be packed in single layer cases, each peach to be wrapped in paper and surrounded with wool. The packing was done under the direct supervision of an officer of the Department. The contract with the growers, as represented by the St. Catharines Cold Storage-J: Forwarding Co., was for 2,000 cases, but, ow- in^ to stormy weather and other causes, only 1,200 cases were ready in time. Three^ varieties have been shinned, namely, "Early Crawford," "Old"Mix- on*' and "Elberta." These have all , ��������� . . ��������� been landed in good condition.

Sir William helped to make a success of the art collections at many exhibitions, notably the 1887 Manchester Exhibition, that at Melbourne in 1888, and that in Paris in 1900. By his exertions fifty pictures by deceased masters of the English School Were sent to France on that occasion, and he himself lent several valuable ���������works by Burne-Jones, an act of international courtesy which nt a time of tension between the two nations was most valuable. One of the most sensational episodes in the world of art with which he was associated was the case of Gainsborough's "Duchess of Devonshire." On May 6, 1876, he purchased the .picture for ������10,100, and 18 days later Ut disap- fieared, having been cut of its frame n the Agnew Gallery. Sir William offered a reward of ������1,000 for its recovery, and there was an extraordinary crop of rumors regarding the .cause of its disapponrunce. Twenty- five years later, in April, 1001, it was recovered, at great expense, in America, the personality of tho thief remaining a mystery. In 1893 he presented to the National Gallery "The Harbor of Refuge," by Fred. Walker, A.R.A., whose genius he was one of the first to recognize, buying a picture from him in 1864 with compliments that quite overcame the artist. Sir William's philanthropy was carried out on a princely scale. For many years he maintained at his own expense a school for 100 poor children at Pendleton, Manchester, und he was on the board of several charitable institutions. By his ready wit and financial help he did much to maintain public confidence in the grout Manchester Ship Canal scheme. Sir William married jn 1851 the eldest daughter of Mr. E. P. Kenworthy, of Manchester. He leaves a family of two daughters and lour sons. Ho was created a baronet in 1895, and is succeeded in the titlo by Mr. George William Agnew, Liberal member for West Salford. j. peac.ies to Montreal, and cold stor- ; age chambers were reserved on steam- \ ������~rs for three weekly sailings eaeh to I London, Liverpool and Glasgow, ami | one to Bristol. The facilities thus j provided made private shipments pos- ' sible. Mr. C- A. Dobson. of the Jo"-. * dan Harbor Peach Ranch, has maie. i successful shipments of several hun- ��������� dred eases of peaches, and others have j shipped pears and early apples. Throught the refrigerator car and | cargo inspection services of this | branch of the Department of Agriculture, we wiii have complete data respecting the temperature and nther conditions under which the fruit wa* carried until it reached the markets in Great Britain. This information will be issued in the form ��������� of a bulletin for the guidance of growers who may wish to make shipments in future. The trail will be well blazed and it will be,,the fault of the shippers if they do uot follow it successfully. A recent bulletin makes the following announcement respecting the spa- son's crop: "Tn Eastern Canada 'he peach cron has been very irresulav, and quite conflicting reports have been received. As the crop approaches maturity and is being harvested., the een- eral estimation would be that then* ia a medium to full crop, but light in certain varieties. The late peaches nre even .better than the earlier.varieties. The Early Crawfords were better than usual. The Smock will be a Vmedinm crop. The Elbertas, however,*are light.. British Cohimbia -reports a full crop of both early and late peaches." It nlsojcontains this information of importance to shippers: "Many peach growers are shipping this year for the first time in peach boxes. Tt should be noted that, while the Inspection and Sale Act prescribed no name and addresses for-the peach basket, tha poach box must be marked the snnn������ us any other closed packnga. The inspectors are reporting a number of cases where pench boxes have not been properly marked," The presence in the English market of Canadian peaches will present to the British ipublic another aspect of our resources. classes in this almost national pas* time that Richard 11. and his successors had to continue to proclaim against "tennisse, football������, and other games." This determined persecution had no appreciable effect, however. The peoplo persisted.in the game they loved better than the law..' 3 ames I'll. of Scotland also found i,t necessary to order quarterly practices of arms: when "footballe and golfe be utterly cryed down and not to be used." Played almost exclusively by the ignorant and rough, tabooed by the upper classes, accompanied by frequent deaths and serious injuries occasioned by the excessive brutality and ruffianism displayed, football was as. deservedly persecuted in. those days as it is encouraged and patronized by royalty to-day. That the game was still unlawful in the time of Elizabeth is evidenced by the-fact that a Middlesex jury brought in a true" bill against,a uuinbcr of persons ji'ho "with unknown malefactors to the number of 11 assembled themselves unlawfully and played a certain unlawful game called foote-ball, by means of which unlawful game there, was amongst them a great affray likely to result in homicides and serious accidents." - Stoubbs, in his "Anatomy of Abuses in the Realm of England," describes football as a devilish pastime, resulting in brawling, murder and great ei- fiisidn of blood: 'Yet* so" far thi} gavne was more handball than football. "The gradual refinement and regulation of the game resulted in a decrease of it? popularity, so that at the beginning of the-nineteenth century the game almost disappeared altogether A> T-he*?A the leading, public schools took up the game, each in its own. particular style. In 1855 the Blackheath and Richmond clubs were formed, and in 1853 the Football Association.

V Hhen w'e remember thot this document was sketched a year before the Treaty of JJerlin by a boy of twenty- four, wo know not which to admire tho moro, his courage or hiB pro- scienco.

CAUSE AND CURE OF RHEUMATISM DUE TO IMPURITIES IN THE BLOOD���������CURED BY DR. WIL- LIAMS' PINK PILLS. The most'noticeable and immediate result of rheumatism is a marked thinning of the blood, and in no disease - does it develop more rapidly. Not only does the blood become weak but it is soon filled with impurities, which the different organs of the body have been unable to throw off. One of the most harmful of these impurities is uric acid, which is;formed from the waste products of the body. In health it is readily passed off by the kidneys with the help of oxygen from the red corpuscles of the blood.' Without oxygen the kidneys are unable to rid the system of this acid and it ia retained in the blood arid distributed to all parts of the body. The weak back, pains across the kidneys and thin, scanty, highly colored secretions, which follow, show that the acid is already in the blood and often leads the sufferer to think he has kidney trouble. If the disease is not driven out of tho blood, rheumatism can never be, cured, and the sufferer will always be subject to attacks, whenever exposed to damp or cold. With each returning attack the.pain becomes more severe nnd complications often arise making necessary the use of habit forming drugs to relieve pain. VV A A- It is readily seen thnt the only, way to cure rheumatism is through ! the blood. Dr. William's Pink Pills afford such a treatment ns they contain all the elements necessary to build up and purify the blood. Thoy increase its oxygen enrrying capacity enabling tho kidneys to pass the uric acid from the body and tho other organs to do their work. Thus rheumatism is reached at its root and permanently cured. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are absolutely froo from all habit- forming drugs, and nro not nn experiment as the following capo will show: ���������-Mr. W.

Robert Barr Misrepresents In Order . to Make Magazine "Copy." - In one -of his latest stories Robert Bsrr brinsrs his hefc. L-osfd S������������*n������*iph to Canada, where he has an amusing experience with the Immigration officer. The trouble with the incident is that it could not have happened, and the officials at Montreal and else* where are annoyed. Mr. Barr represents Stranleigh as traveling with his valet and bearing with him letters of introduction to bankers in Montreal, Toronto and New York. At Montreal he met with an experience which made him wonder if he were within the boundaries of the British Empire. No doubt he will be excused by many because of 'the purpose he had in view in making protest against one feature of'-lhe Canadian regulations governing; ��������� the admission of eriii- grants, but he quite failed to master his facts. He describes the immigration official as being the man who had discovered that on several occa- sions immigrants, assisted by Hheir friends, had traveled first-class, instead of second or third in order to escape the restrictions set up' against the admission of paupers. This is where Mr. Barr goes astray. No man would pay $40 or $50 extra in passage money in, order to avoid the necessity of possessing $25 on landing. But Mr. Barr had to create this kind of1 situation in order to bring Lord Stranleigh, "the richest man m the world," up against one of our immigration officials. And so the official, little knowing the man he was dealing with, tackled his lordship. "Do you possess twenty-five dollars?" asked the official sternly of the richest roan in England, who gave the name of Edmund Trevelyan. "I've got two dollars," answered Stranleigh, "or perhaps sixpence less since my last bottle ot Bass." "Are" you a farm laborer?" was the next question. "I have occasionally worked upon a farm, but I never made any money at it." "Did you earn the money that paid your passage?" "Well, now that you corner me. I "Were you assisted by friends, or did you come over through the help of any charity?" "Through the charity of old George Selwyn I received some assistance." " "Then you must go back." "I intend to." "If you have a return ticket why didn't you say so?" "Because I didn't take a Teturn ticket. I sail for England in a month or two via New York. "Merely came this way to view the scf>T>pry?" sugspwted the officer. "Exactly. Still, I hope to get some assistance when I land. I carry letters to people over here." "You won't land," said the guardian of his country with decision. "The. Dominion expects every man to pay his own way, and we consider it servile for anyone to accept outdoor relief. You 'flash up twenty-five dollars or else stay aboard this ship." "I agree with you," said Stranleigh, "that that's a very good spirit to work on." ��������� He 'dug down into his pockets and fished up some Canadian money, which he counted. "I find I have only a dollar and eighty cents. That last bottle of .beer has wrecked me. What do you suggest?" y ' "I don't suggest; I order. It's you for the raging main once more. 'I've cautrht several of your tribe, already." "Ah! I understand now why Lord Kitchener avoided Canada and came home through the United States. Horatio Herbert Kitchener is a wise man, and there are not more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." ��������� The young mnn glanced to the rear.

' ��������� "Bring hither tho wherewithal andv crush 'this'.-.official.- Perhaps we can both crawl into Canada under cover of our ill-gotten gains." Good���������Though Live���������Indian.' An interesting sidelight on an Indian of.Western Canada was discovered by a party of Ontario men a short time ago at a Hudson Bay post on the- Saskatchewan River. Feeling hospitably inclined, tho members of the; party brought up the stock of tobacco . in the store and smarted distributing it among the noble rcdmen.; Tho latter, of courso, eagerly accepted the gifts of tho weed, and, as news-of the good fortune spread among the Indians in the vicinity of tho store, moro and more of them camo trooping in. Among the hewer arrivals ! was an old Indian of striking ��������� appearance, and to him also tho visitors offered tobacco. To their surprise he mndo a motion declining it, and, thinking that perhaps the old man was doing so through imagining that ho. would need to pay for it, the Easterners asked an interpreter to explain that tho tobacco; wos being offered free. "It's no use offering it to him," snid tho interpreter with a laugh. "Ho won't tako it. Ho belongs to tho Plymouth Brethren."

The new dressmaker, Mrs. Helena Garrett; hopes by strict attention to Word has boon brought to town that the' MoPeak group of mining claims, concerning which items of news hnve appeared in tho lloview froth time to timo, arc proving even better than the original investigations indioated. The considerable uncovering work whioh Iui-j 11 tion dono since"the claims woro looate'3, has shown the ore bod i os to bo of groat extent and the further the work progresses, and the biggor tho values become. Tho oro is said to aesay $34 to the ton in coppor and $1.50 in gold, and now that, the values have bbeeu uncovered, negotiations' have been entered into with a t>ronp (*������ mining capitalists in the Uuited States, with a view, to bonding the pi-operty. We hopo that the proposition will appeal favorably to these monied interests, and that the MoPeak Consolidated Mines will be the fdre runner of a large number of producing mines in the Ores- ton District. The Kooteuays throughout, is heavily mineralised, and : Bur- rouuding the Creston Valley, within nlmost. stone thrown of the famous Sheep Oreek and Bayonne Mining Gumps, is a vast territory of practically virgin country, which presents- a great field for the enterprising prospector. If tha McPeak Miuing Claims come up to present expectations, the contention often urged in tho .Review will oe justified, namely that right at our own doors, on the slopes and water courses leading from the mountains into the Oreston Valley, are to be found the ontr ex'oppings of vast irineral treasures,* second to none in all the fampuB mining countries of the world. v^\������HiiBttigB������iisoiiisiBiiviiBiliiiIIr^ RECENTLY OPENED The Cheap Cash Flour and Feed Store Bff Our Stock is New and Fresh Our Flour and Feed is^ the BEST.
