OPINION OK THE LONDON TIMES. London, Aug 29.���������The Times says editorially: "The Czar's note breathes a spirit of generous, perhaps indeed, almost Quixotic humanity. A spirit familiar-in the effusions of vissionar- ies, but too seldom found in the utterances of great sovereigns and responsible statesmen. Never, perhaps, in modern history havcaspirationsjwhich good men in'all ages have regarded as at once ideal and unattainable found so responsive, an echo is the counsels o1 one of the greatest and most powerful world's.rulers. In principle the proposals of the Czar, put forth on a solemn occasion, with every mark of disinterested sincerity, will command the sympathy and respect of all good men. So far as Great Britain is concerned, we long ago abandoned continental ambitions and there is no power in the world which has less to gain or more to lose by any disturbance of the existing territorial status' quo. The time has long since gone by when British by commerce could be made, tc flourish means of war. Tlio greatest of our interests is peace and so sensitive is onr world-wide commerce that even rumors of war often do us more injury than war itself might do to a powerless dependent than Great Britain'on a free .interchange in the whole world of the manifold products of its active industries. " If .Russia, which is also a great.hut has still undeveloped industrial future before her is becoming fully convinced, as'we in England'have" long been, that her resources would be better devoted to the beneficient arts of peace than to' destructive and uneconomic energies of war, Englishmen, as essentially a peace-loving people, can only hail the Czar's pronouncement with the utmost cordiality as glad tidings and great joy','which whatever may be thc, nrac- ticahissue, does cast honor upon ' the sovereign's gencrousi and > lofty spirit and humanity. The _ difficulties arc great but nothing can henceforth deprive the Czar of having brought peace and disarmament into the sphere ol practicpl politics. It looki at present as though all the groat' powers might be willing to enter a conference, while the United States might be expected to lend a favorable ear to proposals tending .in ,a degree to lesscri "the weight of the imperial responsibility she is about.to undertake tier industrial policy is closely akin to our own and her abiding intei est in the maintenance of peace is hardly'less , vital." Czar cannot be sugn:cTEn. ��������� The Daily News says : '"The Czar, by this message has acquired more righteous and enduring fame than belongs to the proudest conqueror of his illustrious house. '1 here is no quarter from which such a manifesto would produce a more profound impression. Hitheito thc great obstacle was that nobody would begin. The Czar cannot be suspected of making a virtue of necessity. We shall hardly be wrong in attributing tho niomentuous policy of the Czar himself.

(jjlt appears evident? that if this state '^tiling were to be prolonged it would fovitably lead to the very cataclysm feis desired to avoid, and the horrors -Hereof make every 'thinking'' people \dder in advance. To put an end these incessant armaments and to .pk the means of wording off the cal i'uties which are threatening the Sjjole world, such is tlio supreme duty f, day imposed upon all states.

I The proposed Lardeau railway will, in all probability lead from Arrowhead along thc northern shore of the arm to Thompson's Landing, thence to Trout Lake City, with a spur- to Ferguson, and along thp western shore of lake to a townsite known as Dawson, situated on Lardeau creek at a point whers Henley and Tenderfoot creeks empty into it, tho-ncc through (lie valley of the Lardo creek to the head of Kootenay lake. From this point and Kaslo thc C. P. R. will run barges, as is now done on the Arrow lakes between Arrowhead, Nakusp and llobson, to connect the terminus of the Crow's Nest with their Lardeau br.mch and the main line here, and also their Slocan branch, which, by thc time the Crow's Nest reaches Kootenay Jake from the east, will be built to Kaslo from Whitewater, thus giving the C. P. R. practically a monopoly of the trade of both the Kootenays. The 0. P. R. are also reaching out after tlie Boundary trade, but are very apt to again run up against Messrs. Hcinze and "Corbin, who, we believe, are by no means disinterested in that promising mining and agricultural country.���������B. C. .'ngwb. The Victoria Times gave some days ago the whole of tho correspondence between Lieutenant-Governor Mclnnis and ex-Premier Turner, contained in the special issue of the British Columbia Gazette, which has caused a sensation. It discloses the governor's objections, commencing July 13th, four days after the general elections to the appointments recommended by the government, to the change of the date of polling of Cassiar district to Sept. 1st, to thc placing at the disposal of the government agent in Cassiar, $35,- 000 for the relief of men in tliat district in employing them on the trails, and other sums asked to bo placed at the immediate disposal of other agents in various parts of the province. The lieutenant-governor also refers to unpleasant interviews had with him by the premier and other members of the government, and quotes insf-mcca of warrants which he had previously intimated he would'not approve "thrust in -again among others in routine matters in such a way that" in some instances I was nearly led inadvertently to sign them, and in one instance, thc placing of $2 500 at the disposal of the chief commissioner for the construction of country 'schoolliouses, I did sign the warrant, haying previously refused to do so." Thc governor instances a case in which a batch of warrants'were sent him for signature fastened together in such a way that his signature on thc last sheet would have indicated approval of all, but he inspected them all before signing the last sheet. > "To may surprise I found inserted therein, in different places, 'six or seven warrants in blank. As I did not propose to approve of blank warrants, I cut them out. This was about July 19th last. I havo since waited for some information iu regard to, or some inquiry for, those warrants in blank, but none have been forthcoming." < The governor's letter of August 8, which Turner said was not a dismissal concludes as follows : "For as I, would not feel justified in granting you 'another dissolution 'and appeal to the elector Lte, aud as after careful study of the situation I am convinced -that you cannot command a majority in the assembly, I shall not put thc province to the delay or to thc expense of a special session of tho leg-' islature, merely for the purpose' of formally demonstrating what has already been sufficiently 'demonstrated to mc by the general elections. 1 deem it my duty, therefore, to ask, and I do hereby ask, tliat yourself and your colleagues hand in your resign ttions as advisers to me and as members of my executive council." Mr. Tumor, replying to that letter,' says, amongst, other things, that on June 18, T. R. Mclnncs, the governor's son and private secretary, told him that thc way out of his difficulty was to give W. W. B. Mclnncs, M.P., a cabinet position and the latter would resign from the Dominion parliament and bring over one or two opposition members to join Mr. Turner's party. He adds that W. W. B. Mclnnes subsequently confirmed the proposition. The governor in a subsequent letter characterises the suggestion as impertinent. The whole correspondence occupies eight columns. ets. The best step in the world io to reach them without r< strict ion and this can only be done by reciprocity. The American governmei-t by it would Jose a million a year in duties, and we on this side would have to make some equivalent sacrifice. No doubt all Slocan will aid tne movement, and we hope Mr. McArthur will meet with success in his efforts.

Taking this for granted I wish to point out that for a supporter of the then opposition party you seem to be badly prejudiced against "Joe" Martin, one of their leadeis. Like your self, in ono respect, J do not think "Joe" should get the premieriliin for a We are given to understand the Turner government gave promises of assistance to certain wagon roads in this part of the country among which was Wedding Bells.

C. politics ; but I do not expect he will get it, nor do I think he intends making any breach in his party by forcing his claims at the present time. I am not personally acquainted with '-Joe" at all, but am satisfied from his action in the Manitoba school case that lie is a man of good ability, and onevwho has the courage to express'his views openly. Such p. man in public life is bound to have the most bitter enemies as well as the warmest friends. Laurier does not seem to be a man to express his opinions on any subject very definitely, and thus it will be seen why he should prefer a wilk-and- vater man, like - Sifton, rather than an outspoken individual like "Joe." I do not. think "bnins" was the leading card in the selection at all. IHs true, thatj we have not divided on the old party lines in B. C, but there is just as marked a difference between the parties led .by the Smytbe-Kobscm- Davie-Turner outfit and those led .by C. A. Semlin, the present premier, ft is difficult for ino to see the difference between a Liberal-Conservative and a Reformer. It may be said that the latter are more radical than the foriiiev, but it would take an angel with a microscope to toll just how far that word Lik- nitAi, would go in the term Liberal-Conservative. It is then just a matter of the "inns" and "outs." If the party in power has handled , the affairs of the country in a good, sound, businesr-like way it becomes'.our duty to support them, and visa versa. For an intelligent man to have no opinion is a lack of principle. I understand that "Joe" was educated in Toronto Normal, one of the best, if not the best, training institutions in the world, and for that reason preason his presence in the B. C. cabinet will be doubly beneficial. Posta- lozzi, Troebel and other great ^odern educational reformers have spent thoir lives demonstrating the fact that pupils in the earlier stages should be taught through tho senses rather than from memory, yet in nine-tenths of our >B. C. schools it is the memory alone thot is utilized and the methods that prevailed in "ye olden times'' are still adhered to. More anon. Squib. New Denver, B.C., Aug. 29, '98. f_We readily give place to tho foregoing, and shall at all times as willingly publish a communication criticising our own opinions as those of others, so long as the abject is to get at the truth and serve the public. We may here say that the editor of this paper knows Mr. Martin as well as any man in <he province knows him, and met himas often on the public platform as any man in Manitoba promise expensive surveys were made and a certain amount of work done, and now we are informed the new government refuse to carry out the promises of their predecessors. This whole business lias been bungled from end to end, but it is no reason either the people or the country should suffer for it. When these promises were made to our delegates last winter.the next step should have been the adoption of thc amounts in the regular or supplementary estimates. Had this been done thc present government could not now withold the money. -Whether, under the circumstances, the late government would or would not have carried out thoir promises, we are unable to say ; but as we know nothing on that score, it is nono the less incumbent upon tho present administration to'make the promise good. Were the promises made to meet some shady transaction, there would be a plea for present recusal ; but when it is for a work badly needed,- and only on line with dozens of grants made'year after year, there is the more reason why the matter should now be made good. " It has been frequently acknowledged by the'members of thc present cabinet when in opposition that the Kootenay country never got justice in the shape of public expenditure. The public records show this ; Mr. Turner's manifesto to tho electors of a few weeks ago shows it. and now a small grant implicitly .promised, and imperatively needed, is withheld, and for no reason that will stand investigation. This is a matter of much moment to this part of thc country then appears on the surface, as thc proposed road if built, would be used by several mines as well as the one for whose use it was to bo ostensibly built. We know Mr. Green will do his best to have this promise made good, so the duty before the government will"be, clear. The now administration cannot a flbrd to play this way'at" thc outset, as they will shortly have to go to the people, where a sharp reckoning will have to be mado. We trust they will, fully consider this matter.and see that good faith is observed all around. Rev. J. A. Cleland assisted by the Rev. A. M.

'Nothing has yet been found to supercede it for Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Cholera, Cramps, Colic and Summer Complaint. Don't take a substitute. 'Jfplea of unity and right whereon rest I Insist on getting the genuine. Mr. G. O. Buchannan, of Kaslo,spent some time in the city this week on a matter of much importance to our surroundings. It was to get the co-operation of our council and mine owners to strengthen tho hands of J. B. McArthur, of Rossland, who is going before thc Quebec Conference, to press for reciprocity on lead���������to have our ores admitted to the States for smelting, free of ciut,y,and failing in lead, to get free bullion. The U. S. consumes annually some 25,000 tons of lead more than they produce, and the duty they impose greatly handicaps our ores in that market. If reciprocity of ore cannot be got, reciprocity of bullion would be the next best thing. The market of the U. S. in so far as they require a supply is the best in thc world, and is, theicfore," a special object especially for the Slocan country. For instance hist your it cost the 'Payne people about 1*300,000 in duty on ore, and our mines altogether well on to a million dollars. With reciprocity of ore we would'save this million in the Slocan for development purposes a valuable consideration. Smelting at home is one benefit, but it does not help the production much, as wp then have to pay duty on the bullion to reach the American mark- met him, so that when wc speak of the gentleman, it is not in ignoranco of his public acts or his public record. As, however, our correspondent refers specially to the Manitoba school act, we are doing no one a wrong in say that Mr. Martin's record on that measure is anything but creditable to him as a.public man. When in opposition in the Manitoba legislature, he pledged his word of honor, as a public man, to the Fronch electors of a French constituency, whilo an election was pending, that if they returned the Liberal candidate, whioh would place him and his friends in power, he would not interfere with thejr separate schools. Thoy returned his candidate, which placed him in powor, and when there, ono of his iirst acts was to pass that Manitoba School Act���������the measure that ho but a few months beiore gave his woid of honor as a public man he would not pass, fn the light of tkis and other matters, which wo will not speak off as they are not under consideration, wo feel we are quite liberal in saying wc are willing to give him a fair chance in his present position, but for the welfare of the province we do not want to see him rule���������En. Rl'vihw.J It is altogether possible that by the time tho snow is off the ground next spring work will be under way on the great drainage tunnel which it is > projected to build from -the Columbia river to t.-.p red mountain. J. B. McArthur, who is interested in the company formed to operate the tunnel, leaves for the east on Thursday of next week to arrange lor the capital necessary to carry out the proposition. Interested with Mr. McArthur in the company is Charles R. Hosmcr.iho Interest continues unabated in the strike on Rover creek, nnd a large number went out there to-day. It is stated, however, that all the available ground has now been taken up. Rover creek is about seven miles- long, not counting the west fork which is about three miles long. At the head of the west fork is situated the Whitewater claim in which Mr.Goepel of this city is interested. Above the Whitewater on the Snowline a great deal of extremely rich float, a free milling quartz, has been found and many consider that this is thc source of the placer gold below. The ledge, however, has never been discovered. The present strike is not thc first that has been made on this creek. All along disused sluice boxes may still be seen, the relics of thc old time placer exeitement.

Holt, also of Montreal, who is ono of the best known railway men of the Dominion, is thc third member of the group, which in April last was incorporated under thc name of the Red Mountain Tunnel company, limited, with power to construct thc tunnel. The project is perhaps the most vast that has yet been brought forth in connection with thc camp. It contemplates the construction of a tunnel some live milci long, starting from tho Columbia river at a point above Trail, ������nd ending underneath thc California mineral claim, west of the town. The tunnel would be adapted not only to drain the mines of thc camp, but it would also ventilate them, furnish them with light and powor and a flbrd an economical means of extracting their ore. It is one of the most gigantic undertakings in the world, and in size would be even lunger than the famous Sutro tunnel in Nevada. Owing to the hardness of the rock in this district, thc cost of the enterprise would bo even greater proportionately, than that of the tunnel on the Corn- stock. As yet no details for thc construction of the tunnel have been elaborated, but it is expected that it will cost between ?2,00u,000 and $4,000 000- Even on this enormous outlay, however, thc promoters of the project feci .Mr. George Beer, who was in Nelson yesterday, has a half interest in thc claim next to the discovery claim. He had some dust and small nuggets which were panned on thc surface of his claim. He was very reticent but appeared to have every confidence in thc property, the surface washings being undoubtedly extremely encouraging. Work is being actively pushed on tho different claims, and tho owners expect to find bonanzas when they reach bed rock. The depth of bod rock varies very considerably along thc creel;, with perhaps eight feet as (he minimum and GO or 70 feet as thc maximum depth. Tho average depth, however, is from 1.5 to 20 feci. On the discovery claim thoy expict to reach bed rock in about 12 foot. Many of thc local business men have been bitten by the gold fcrcr, and have sent out representatives to stake claims and otherwise try and set them on thc ground floor. Thc real value of the new diggings will not be known for a few day's anyhow, but there is no doubt that dust in paying quantities has boon discovered on Rover crock. This find will probably give a great impetus to prospecting in this vicinity, and the various creeks will be thoroughly tested.

He cannot .see why objection should be taken to nationality; and in the same article when he says, "All Canada is in such close relationship with the bordering Republic, the sentiments, opportunities and ���������destinies of the two countries being in a large measure the same, ihat no lines of demarkation save those existing in imagination or streaking the narrow places of prejudice, exist," he furnishes the strongest answer available to his own query. It is not because Americans are Americans, nor because American scribes presume to write on Canadian subjects for the Canadian press, that any exception is taken to them by sensible Canadians; but' merely when they show gross ignorance of the subjects on which they presume to write. As the press of every country is taken to be the principal educator of its people, it is of the utmost importance that those who have the literary charge should be equal to their responsibilities. When a writer wants to assure Canadians that their "sentiments, opportunities and destinies" are in a "large measure," or in any measure, large or small, for that matter, the same as those of their cousins across the line, it is ample evidence that he is hardly the proper educator for the Canadian people. We want to do as much business backwards and forwards "as we possibly can ; we want to be on as friendly relations as two brothers, if we can; we want as much of American capital, brain, push aad enterprise as they want from us, and more if ire can get them; but God forbid that we should desire as our destiny the political goal to which the America/is are hastening as rapidly as circumstances can carry them. WHY NOT PUBLISH THE FACTS? Since its establishment, The Review has persistently advocated the proper advertising abroad of the mineral wealth of the Sandon district; and as time rolls by, making-its revolutions, ' the more there is being unfolded to warrant honest advertising. Rossland with its two dividend paying and three or four shipping mines is known the world over, and its properties enquired after from every corner of the globe, simply because the facts are stretched and advertised in tension. Sandon, on the other hand, has its dozen dividend payers and its score or more regular shippers, and but little is heard of it because those on whom the responsibility rests are doing nothing to advertise the place. Why should this be allowed to rest in this way? There are scores of properties here that can be purchased in whole or in part from men without the means to work lhem, that under a very moderate expenditure mtght be made rivals, as dividend payers, with the LeRoi of Rossland, and are now lying in a state of rest. Our business people are anxious for more business ; land owners are anxious to sell real estate, and every thing is quiet, simply because our mineral wealth and inviting surroundings are not brought before outside capitalists. Can we not organize a Board of Trade and through it secure the joint co-operation of the city council, mine and prospect owners, and the public generally, in the proper advertising of our wealthy surroundings? We would like to hear from correspondents on this most important matter. checkers ; but we fancy it will not be long in the game before the C. P. R. will greatly reinforce its kings. The importance of the mining industiy of this country will force whatever government is in power at Ottawa, and, according to the statement of the Hon. Geo. E. Foster, when the .Conservatives come into power, they will require no forcing���������they will do it as matter of princip^���������to encourage smelting, minting and manufacturing. With this done, our ore will cease to cross the lines���������it will be treated and handled at home. With this gained the railway traffic of this country will become so revolutionized that we will require roads to the south for ordinaiy commercial purposes, passenger traffic and mail service only. No doubt in the world the C. P. li. has the building up of large smelters and refineries at home in view, and when it is in shape to ofler mines inducements to have their ores, handled at home, there will be no urgent need for a competitive railway service across the lines. A report is cm rent at Victoria that it is not the intention of the new Sem- lin government to meet parliament, but dissolve before the year is out and go to the country. We hope for three substantial reasons that tlie repoit is not true. In the first place it would be establishing a precedent, even if the lieut.-governor granted a dissolution, which he would be perfectly justified in refusing. We cannot remember a parallel to such a case in the whole history of Canada. The rule is for a new government to meet the House, pass such legislation as vitally affects the complexion of the House, then dissolve and appeal.after the Parliament convenes, if defeated before anything is done. The rule is to meet the House in any event. In the second place a, dissolution now would mean an appeal on a division of constituencies, that the present government party in the late elections declared to be a disgrace to the country. On every platform a reference was made to the inequalities in the voting strength of the constituencies, and an appeal, without correcting these inequalities, would be condoning the alleged flagrant violation of principle of their predecessors. In the third place, it would lead to the assumption that deception was intended in not unfolding their new policy before asking public endorsement. In the late elections, the point turned on Turner's policy ; and the public, before being asked to vote again, should have unfolded the policy and principles of their successors. This is a business way of looking at the matter, at least. Tbe conference of representatives of Canada and the United States now in session at Quebec, to settle several matters in difference between these countries, naturally creates a new interest for British Columbians in the lead industry. We all feel that the Slocan is likely to prove one of the greatest silver-lead producing countries in the world; bul owing to the newness of the camp it has many things to contend with locally. These, considerable though they be, would be readily overcome were restricting legislation removed. As tlie U. S. production is short of home demand, from the proximity of the two countries, we should naturally step in to supply the difficiency ; in fact we have been doing it for some time, but are handicapped by the American duties, on ore as well as bullion. For several reasons some of our producers find smelting across the lines more satisfactory than smelting at home��������� in short the difference ir. American duties on ore and bullion enforces smelting there. As there will have to be come and go at the conference, it is to be hoped that a matter of such importance to one province, as the silver-lead duty is to this, will have full consideration. We would be quite willing to pay our share of increased duties in other channels, if the country was fairly met in regard to this. Of all the bereavements which are possible to a home, the 'loss of a child is perhaps the most disappointing, and the hardest to bear. During the heated spell in the summer in (C&S&I >/, A New York City as Itpial / rt^-V \ many as a thou- V.s&r' Vlr*'sirT===:::Ti sand babies have died in a week. Of course, in a crowded city, with its unsanitary districts, many of these /-Sf-is-^iy +���������' ' deaths would /^yf2L=^-/ ~ have occurred *���������^ any way. The fact remains that this tremendous mortality was to a great extent due to the lack of inherent resisting power iu the victims. These babies when born had in their bodies Hie seeds of disease. The deadly heated fferni only shortened the period of their sufferings. If a woman wishes her babies to be healthy and strong and able to resist the usual ailments of childhood, she must take proper care of herself in a womanly way during the period of gestation.

A curiosity rarely witnessed 1 in this country was seen at the effice of the pension examiners in this city to day. It was a negro man turning whito. The man's name is Sam Smith. He is 67 years old and came .here from Georgetown to stand an examination for a pension, he having served in the Union army. More than three-fourths of the man's entire body is white, the skin fairer by far than,that of the ordinary white man. The dark skin remaining on the body is only in small spots. Smith says that his skin began turning white in 1867, and the dark skin has been disappearing from lhe body over since. The physicians who examined him think that should the old man live a few years longer he will be entirely white, save, perhaps, the face. A peculiar feature of the case is lhat thc face has riot bceii turning white along with the rest of the body, the white only showing at a few places beneath thc hair on the forehead, and not on the face at all.���������Lexington (Ky.) Letter in Cincinnati Enquirer. RAILWAY MOVES. Some people think that from the close relations between "Jim" Hill's road, the Great Northern, and the K. & S., taken in connection with the fact that Jim Hill owns the Northern Pacific, that the C. P. R. will be forced to build a line into the States, south from Nelson or some other point. To those, the announcement that the K. & S. is likely to build into Slocan City gives additional conviction. This is hardly a complete view of the situation. This activity on the part of Jim Hill is to secure the ore carrying business of southern British Columbia to American smelters and refineries. It is a game of Will Soon Have Enough Men. Thininfiesh?

"I suppose thnt all of us who felt tho living, frenzied force of that aw'iul 'on shore hurricane will dream about occasionally ns long as wo live," sa an ox-bluojacket of tho United Stat navy now living in Washington wh was among the Vandalia ship's company at tho timo of tho great naval disaster in Apia harbor, Samoa, in rovort- ing to that oxperieuco. "For threo or four years after I got out ,of that mess all safo and sound tho memory of it used to get tanglod up in my bend whon I was asloop, aud I would wa'ko in a tremble and be unable to sleop for the remaiudor of tho night. But time has softened the craggier edges of tho re- morabrance of that horrifying bluok wind, and onco in a spoil nowadays I forget all about it for two or throo days at a time. < "Tbore was ono man in my moss on the Vandalia who was never quito right after we went on the reef. I was shipmate with him for two years afterward, and his occasional wildness was plain to all hands, and men who've been shipmates with him since���������for he's still in the outfit���������tell mo that he's just as badly haunted by the memory of the disaster as ho was when last I saw him. This man was a shipwright, and his name was Turley. Before we had that bad blow Turley was as oheerful and as chipper a man around decks as I ever swapped yarns with, but when he got well of his broken arms down in Apia he was a changod man. I never saw him crack a grin aftor the blow, and from a stout, husky fellow he beoame thin and haggard looking. He recovered all right physically from the thing, you aee, but it sort of twisted his head and proyed upon him. He swung his ham- .xnook alongside of me on the Alert for two years after we were sent up to duty on the west coast again, and it was a "common thing for Turloy to hop out of his hammook in a frenzy in tho middle of the night in port or at sea, yelling like a madman: 'All hands abandon shipl She's going to strike!' Ho br'oated a lot of excitemout up forward by doing this, but after awhile the men got used to it and only turned over when they heard Turley howling. ' < "It was the regular thing for theoor- poral of tho marine guard at the gangway to prod the poor chap awake when he had these crazy somnambulistio spoils and put him back in his hammook, for he'd oome out of them as weak as a kitten and trembling all over. There were a numbor of us on the Alert who were washed up in the Samoan disaster, and naturally once in awhile we'd get to talking about it. But it didn't take us long to find out that we couldn't talk about it while Turley was around. The montion of the thing in his hearing would bring an insane gleam into hia eyes, and he would suddenly bagin to talk incoherently and at the top of his voioe about reefs and dragging anohors and all that, so that we learned to knook off Samoau hurricane talk when he was around.

WILSON, J yr. Brooklyn, New York. BIT OF HUMAN NATURE. A Hasty Conclusion About a Woman That Was Changed Later. Two little girls ocoupiod seats together on an elevated train the other night. Both were scantily dressed, hollow eyed and hungry looking. Tbey wore unmistakably of that class known as "oashgirls" employed in the down town department stores, for eaoh ad-' dressed the other by a number in lieu of a name. Directly opposite them sat a fashionably dressed woman who was accompanied, by a well groomed male escort. Upon their entrance the conversation of the little girls stopped abruptly and tbore was something pitiful in the ear nestness with which both watched every move of the woman so stunuiugly gowned. Two pairs of abnormally keen though tired eyes thoroughly investigated every hit of'finery iu her apparel, from tho highest plume of hor hat to the soft, natty shoej which incased her' shapely feet. "Say, TC,'' whispered the smaller of the two girls) loaning toward hor companion, "sho's'a real lady, bhe is. You can toll by hor inalco up. Ain't that a beaut of a hat, though? And look at that diamond breastpin 1 Whew 1 I'll bet that hat cos.t all of"��������� "Shi" interrupted 70 in an undertone. "She'll hear you." Thoro was a Bpull of silenco as both girls leaned back with their heads resting against the top of the seat. Thoy wore enjoying the dazzling picture bolore them. After glancing over a section of a newspaper which the man had given hor the woiuau lolded it up aud handed It back to liiuf. "Did you got the tickets?" she asked. "Yes," was tho auswor in au iudiffer- snt tone. "Let me see them." Ho extracted a Fin all envelope from bis vest pocket and handed it to her. "By tho way, " he remarked, "we will have to go tonight. I couldn't got good soats for tomorrow, aud rather than miss it I took theso." <��������� ���������, "Tonight?" sho repeated iu a tone of vexation. "You know well enough that we can't go tonight. We have another engagement"��������� "Which we can convonioritly can- oel," he interpolated. t "Indeed we will not," she retorted, wit;n a determiued stamp of hor foot. A - prptracted argument followed which was not too low for the cashgirls to learn the drift. "You can go to Mrs. Brown's alone,'! finally oxclainied tho man, "and I will take your mother to the theater I We can call for you on our way home if you insist on going. "��������� "You'll not go to the theater with, anybody. You must" and will go to Mrs. Brown's with me." Thus asserting herself, sho deliberately tore tho envelope containing the tickets in minute parts aud throw them on the floor. * They left tho train at tho next station, ho with a disgu&ted look on, his face and sho with head erect aud a defiant gluro iu her bright eyes. Scarcely had tho rustle of her garments ceased to be ke-.ird whon 76 sagely observed: "You"ro,all ofT, 27. She ain't a real lady. It's only her fine duds what makes you',think so.

The Terrapin Knew Him. When the lato Major Moses P. Handy lived in Washington, ho was frequently attending dinners at Chamberlin's. At every dinner at all out of the ordinary it was Chamberlin's habit to pass around the table alive the terrapin that (it was assumed) the guests were to eat later. One night, as Major Handy told the story, when the live terrapin wero brought in, as usual, he notioed, as he thought, one of the terrapins wagging his head at him. At the' next banquet the same thing happened again, and at the next one of the terrapin detached himself from the rest and, crawling aoross the table to the major's plate, rose on his hind legs, and, resting his foro legs against a convenient tumbler, he bowed three times, solemnly; but courteously, to the astonished and awestruck guest. Upon investigation it was discovered that the terrapin had seen the major so frequently at Chamberlin's festal boaid that he recognized him as an old friend and politely addressed him as such. Mr. Chamberlin is said to havo resented this story as a refleotiou on the freshness of his terrapin.���������Kansas City Journal. Two Capital Stories.

THE MINING REVIEW. / i ��������� j Transportation Company Tnat Will ���������, Tap East Kootenay. I? There now seems to be no doubt that the Xelson & Bedlingfon railway is to _ be built. A correspondent, in London writes as follows concerning the company that has been formed there for that purpose: '"In the midst of an extremely dull season, a project of considerable importance is being brought belore the notice of the British public.- This is the Kootenay' Railway & Navigation company, limited, which has been formed to consolidate and extend the railway and steamboat service in British Columbia, controlled by J. J. Hill. This compaay will acquire the Kaslo & Slocan1 railway and the steamers of the International Navigating & Trading company, which at present run between Kaslo and Nelson and connect with the "Spokane ,-FaIls <fe Northern railway. A new line was to be built 53 miles long from tho southern i end of Kootenay lake to meet the Great Northern at Bonner's Ferry, and the Northern Pacific at Sundpoint and in future the line'of steamers will run from Kaslo loathe southern end ol Kootenay lake instead of to Nelson. The construction of this line of mil- way will be in the hands of local' companies, which will build .and operate : the portions in Kootenay and the United States respectively. The capital of the Kootenay Railway & Navigation company, limited, is ������500,000. which goes as purchase price for tho existing lines of railway and steamers, and ������480,000 in debentures ia being offered to thc British public' for subscription.' The money thus raised will go to provide capital for and to obtain control of the - two local companies, which are to construct the new line of railway. Considering everything, thi.������ scheme appears to be a fairly .reasonable one, though knowledge gained on the spot would be necessary to form an accurate judgement. For some un known reoson, tbe prospectus carefully hides the fact that J.'J.-Hill is the ' r mainspring of the whole business, and holds half the share cap'tal. As he is known in England as a shrewd rail: way manager, one would have thought, that the.most would bf made of his name. Of the board of directors George Alexander of the International Navigation & Trading company appears to represent the controlling interestjthcre is a director of the Bank of-British North America, and H.

' New York, Aug. 25.-The Thingval- lia line steamship Norge, sank the French fishing schooner La Coquette, of Bayonne, France on Saturday last, August 20th, on Grand Banks. The captain of the schooner and eight seamen were . saved ; sixteen men went down with the unfortunate vessel. The Norge sailed from Stettin on August 3rd. The weather was generally fine to the banks of Newfoundland when it became foggy with patches (of clear weather. On Saturday August 20th, between 3 and 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the weather was still foggy but not so thick as to necessitate a reduction of speed. Captain Knudsen said he could see about three cable lengths ahead. The wirid'was fairly brisk from 1 the west and south west, when a vessel suddenly loomed up from the north with sails full and stood directly across the bow of the steamer. _ The bells were rung to stop and back at full speed but too late too check the steamer's headway to a full' period. The stranger, to the fishing schooner, fell across the bow with a crash. She was forced over and sunk. As the impact occurred three men sprang aboard the Norge. The passengers of the Norge most of them were about the decks, rushed about in great alarm, but w?re soon quieted wh<jn they learned that the steamer was not injured. In the meantime'the boat was lowered and six men and a dog were picked up. The fishing vessel almcst immediately sank and carried with her 16 of the crew. The lost vessel was thc French fish- ingschooner La Coquette of Bayonne, which carried a crew of 25 men in all.

The many advantages enjoyed by Rosebery put ' befoie the public, CLAIMED WITHOUT , OPPOSITION. Its Advantages as a Distributing *$������ Center. Rosebery is the only town in Kootenay having - both railroad and steamboat connection that can , ' - ship goods daily to ten different towns, whereby the shipper can see his wares leave his hands and that they will be received by the consignee within two hours. ' - ' Its 'Advantages as a Railroad Center. Rosebery enjoys the position of king of the" funncll as it were, for the railroad business of the whole of the Kootenays. _ All ore and matter for shipment from Nelson, Trail Creek and the Slocan must, and is now passing out this way ,to the main line of the C. P. R., as well as all goods coming in from Revelstoke to the Kootenay country. NOTE. To substantiate this: The C. P. R. are now putting in track weigh scales at Rosebery, the first and only scales that has been put in on any of the C. P. R. branches in Kootenay���������which goes to show the, importance of 'this point by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's actions., ' , c. ( '.. >T%i,l I ���������ii Its Advantages as a Steamboat Point. Rosebery claims, without opposition, of being the only junction on the lake, unlike Slocan City, where you can step ofl the steamer to a .waiting train and continue your journey. You can take either a north or south train at this terminus; con- ''- sequently Rosebery is the best 'transient town in the race. Nervertheless we claim Slocan City second in importance, and would say watch the head and foot of Slocan Lake, viz.��������� - ' , ROSEBERY AND SLOGAN CITY. Its Advantages as a Manufacturing lv' "i-.'r I Center. We have every ^ facility, for turning out the best Mining Commercial Work that can be executed. ^T ..- OiUU w������- ��������� Orders taken for Printing at Cliffe's Bookstore will receive prompt attention 4 3QtMj>tM*^j ������2Kjv|^OKa������\^ es: MONTREAL, Do you see this package? keep it in your mind and when you ask for "Athlete ' See that this is 1 what you get������ 0������* ' As a manufacturing center Rosebery claims to have demonstrated the fact that after the careful observation of the Denver (Colorado) Ore Coy's manager, as the natural advantages of all points in Kootenay for the treatment of ores the cheapest, Rosebery was selectedj and they now are erecting - works, with a capacity of 250 tons per day, which will be'in operation within 90 days; a'nd it is their intention to pay out monthly in the vicinity of $100,000. I might also add Rosebery has the largest water power from Wilson river flowing into Slocan Lake. AS TO GLIM ATE. Rosebery claims the mildest climate on Slocan " Lake, from its admirable southern exposure and absolute shelter from the north; snow always leaves the place about the 15th of March. AS A TOWNSITE. As a townsite, Rosebery is without a peer. It is possessed of all the flat land available at the mouth of the Wilson river leading to the valley��������� mining region���������consequently there is Ao danger of any contagion. The title is a Crown Grant and is perfect. All purchasers of lots are safe in -this respect. The only safe speculative townsite in the ' Slocan is Rosebery. Why should I say the only safe speculative town- site in the Slocan ? Because Rosebery business lots to-day are only $150 to $200 each and are bound to increase rapidly this summer. These figures can, and will, double before long. The time to buy is now. Don't wait till they are from $700 to ?i,obo, asyou did in Slocan City last May, go in on the ground floor and make a few dollars in speculation; if you want to invest go to Vancouver or Winnipeg ; if you want to speculate and and clean up money go quick to Rosebery before lots are out of sight. What's Wanted in Rosebery. We want a restaurant. We want a good hotel right away. We want a first-class general store. We want a butcher sn*op. Anyone looking for an opening spy out this place at once. Maps and price-lists on application; prices run from $75 to $200. TERMS : One-thiid cash, balance 3 and 6 months. For actual builders special terms can be ' arranged for a few lots by applying to 1 . A. M.
