tlie  Liberals  have  been  In  power  there 
ever  alnce  the  eountry  was  settled,  and 
this  fact  will  make  it  almost  compul- 
eory  that  the  personnel  of  the  offlce- 
liolders  be  changed  to  conform  with  the 
DPw  conditions.  Since  receiving  my  ap- 
pointment I  imve  kept  in  close  touch 
"  Uh  people  in  the  north,  and  genei-al 
.ondiHons  have  beten  faithfully  report-

"As  far  as  it  i,s  possible  to  do  so, 
the  Injustices  done  the  people  by  the 
Liberal  government  will  be  retnedled,

from  the  pon.sesslon  of  the.  miners  and 
■;iven  to  political  fii.vorltes  as  conces- 
.sions. 

"Tiiese  grants  have  been  the  subject 
of  considerable  controversy  ever  since, 
lUt  the  government  has  allowed  the 
!;mntees  to  retain  them  so  long  that 
they  have  passed  Into  the  hands  of  many 
different  holders,  who  are  probably  not 
•  oncerned  with  the  original  transactions. 
It  Is  not  at  all  likely  that  the  land  can 
now  be  returned  to  the  public  domain. 
However,  all  these  matters  will  be  look- 
ed into  by  the  government  as  soon  as 
they   can    bp   reached.

After  His  Royal  Plighness  opens  the 
Toronto  exhibition  the  royal  party  will 
leave  for  the  west,  stopping  first  at 
Winnipeg  and  then  proceeding  f,o  Van- 
couver, Victoria  and  Prince  Rupert. 


An  order-in-councll  passed  by  the  pro- 
vincial executive  at  a  meeting  held  yes- 
terday changes  the  date  for  nominations 
in  the  forthcoming  provincial-  election

Brlde  will  leave  on  a  tour  of  the  pro- 
vince speaking  at  meetings  to  be  held  in 
the  various  centres  of  population.  It  Is 
probable  that  during  a  portion  of  his 
tcur  he  will  be  accompanied  by  the  Hon. 
W.  J.  Bowser.  The  latter  -will  go  over 
to  Vancouver  at  the  week-end.  and  -lifin

Thomas  Taylor  will  go  to  Revelstoke. 
Hon.  Price  Klllson  -will  remain  in  the 
city  for  some  time,  but  |t  Is  understood 
will  hold  one  or  more  meetings  in  Vernon 
prior  to  the  election. 

The  annual  meeting  of  tl^e  Victoria 
Conservative  .\ssociation  to  be  held  In 
the  A.  O.  U.  W.  hall  this  evening  will 
practically  mark  the  rommencement  of 
the  campaign.  Premier  McBrlde  and  a 
numbei'  of  his  mmtsiers  will  be  in  at- 
tendanee,  and  will  speak  on  the  railway 
policy  and  other  outstanding  quosltons 
of  interest  to  the  province. 

The  Lil-erala  of  Britl-sh  Columbia  wlU 
hold  a  provincial  convention  at  V«in- 
couver  this  evening,  when  a  plan  of

also  anticipated  that  a  decision  will  be 
reached  as  to  the  future  leader  of  the, 
party  in  the  province. 

A  dispatch  to  the  Colonist  from  Mr. 
H  Dallas  Holmcken,  K.  C.V  who  is  at

Reports   differ   regarding   t  i-

compliance  with  the  request  of  the 
Nanking  Republicans,  hut  the  opinion 
at  tlic  legations  is  tliat  tho  re-eatab-

ment will  present  a  great  problem,  and 
that  instead  of  immediate  progress. 
the  develonment  of  China  may  be  re-

OBJECTIONS  TO 

.      VOTES  FOR  WOMEN 


With  permits  issued  of  an  aggregate 
value  of  $l,«O7.570  during  the  month  to 
date,  and  with  yet  another  day  to  run, 
February  has  been  all  previous  building 
records  shattered  and  a  new  record  es- 
tablished. This  enormous  total,  of 
course,  has  been  reached  because  of  the 
issuance  of  the  permit  for  the  erection 
of  the  additions  to  the  legislative  build- 
ings which  will  cost  Jl, 000,000,  but  even  , 
without  this  huge  amount  the  total  is  a 
remarkable  one  for  the  city,  .showing 
aKsregate  value  for  the  month  of  $658,- 
7  20  to  date,  a  figure  which  exceeds  the 
largest  previous  month  in  the  history  of 
tht  city — November  of  last  yeaf",  when 
permits  were  ..issued  for  structuVes  ag- 
gregating, jbio.iio. 

Other  than  the  permit,  for  the  logls- 
l.ntive  buildings  addition  the  only  other 
large  amount  was-  that  for  the  new 
Inion  building,  the  co.st  of  which  Is 
placed    at   $175,000.     The   balance   is   for

which  are  coat<>mplnted  for  every  part 
of  the  city,  and  almost  for  every  street. 
Yesterday  permits  nggregattng  in 
value  ?51.150  were  issued  as  follows:  To 
Messrs.  Barber  Matrass  Company,  Lim-

al  strike.     Negotiations  will  be  re-  , 
tinned  tomvrlrOw,  but  little  Is  espcctcd-- 
from  these. 

The  deadlock  Is  graver  than  was  ex- 
pected. It  has  bo>n  supposed  that  the 
greatest  hostility  would  arise  from  the 
Welsh  mine  owners,  and  public  opinion 
uas  ttirning  In  favor  of  the  miners, 
who.  it  was  thought  would  be  satisfied 
with  the  concession  of  the  principle  of 
a  minimum  wage,  leaving  tho  adjust- 
ment of  details  to  subsequent  arbitra- 
tion or  negotiations.  It  is  now  seen 
that  the  miners  themselves  arc  proving 
the,  greatest  obstacle  In  the  way  of  a 
peaceful  solution  by  Insisting  upon 
their  own  interpretation  of  the  terms 
of  the  minimum  wage.  It  Is  this  as- 
pect of  the  situation  which  renders  the 
outlcfok  almost  hopeless. 

At  the  same  time  it  Is  felt  that  the 

government's  efforts     have     not     been 

wasted.     The  government  has   secured 

i  the  assent  of  sixty  per  cent  of  the  mine

In  Its  statement  tonight  the  govern-

in  which  underground  workers  are  not 
able  to  earn  a  reasonable  minimum

wage  should  be  secured  by  arrange-

WASHINGTON.  Feb.  28.— Firing  mor« 
than  200  torpedoes  without  losing  one, 
la  the  rbcord  of  the  Cnited  States  At- 
lantic torpedo  fleet.  This,  according  to 
an  announcement  by  the  navy  depart- 
ment establishes  a  mark  for  the  little 
craft  which  never  befort  has  been  made 
by  any  ships  of  the  navy  in  active  com- 
mission. 

Since  the  repair  of  tha  vessels  after 
their  experiences  with  the  recent  storm 
off  the  Atlantic  aeaboaTd  they  have 
made  records  both  in  spead  and  amoke 
prevention.  The  sixtten  d*etroyar« 
have  made  full  power  runs  on  which 
they  made  higher  average  apeed  than 
bad  been  made  on  slmUar  runs.  Thbv 
best  spe*-d  record  was  made  by  the  Fftul- 
dlng.   with   an   average   of   81. «   knots. 

The  Burrows  hs"  almost  mast«red  the 
art  of  smoke  prtventton,  and  It  holds 
the  record  for  torpedo  craft.  During  a 
four  hour  run  and  128  knots  this  vsssal 
emitted  visible  smoke  during  only  fif- 
teen seconds.

C.vmcj.  Feb.  ::8. — An  ixfraordinary 
Incident  happened  ut  a  charity  perform- 
ance whieli  was  given  last  week  at  the 
(Jpera  Hou.se,  t'alro,  under  the  i)atrona«'! 
of  1U.S  HIkIi'I'-hh  the  Khedive.  When, 
Just  prior  to  the  ral.sing  of  the  curluln, 
his  Excellency  UuHseln  I'awha  Itusluli, 
and  hl«  Excellency  All  Bey  ChaUlne, 
representing  his  HlKhnesa,  entt  red  the 
house,  the  Kliedlval  anthem  was,  ut 
euurae,  played.  Everyon.^  In  the  audi- 
ence rtmaiued  stHndlng  with  the  excep- 
tion of  the  Nationalist  leader.  Jloham- 
med  Bi'.v  I'^arid,  who  wkk  seated  in  a 
box    just    opposite    the    official    tribune. 

Such  a  public  act  of  disrespect  and 
disloyalty  could  not  be  allowed  to  pasH 
uimotlced,  and  so  Hushdl  Pasha,  who  is 
minister  for  foroU'n  atfalrB,  at  once 
sent  for  Farld  I3ey  and  upbraided  him 
for  his  behavior.  The  Nationalist  lead- 
er rei)lled  most  insolently  that  no  law 
obliged  hini  to  rise.  If  he  wlHlied  to  re- 
main seated,  even  when  the  Khfcdival 
Hymn  was  played,  and  he  refused  to 
apologize. 

The  minister  thereupon  ordertd  him 
to   leave   the   house,   which   he  did.      The

excitement  was  caused  by  a  flashlight

Request  Stoppag*  of   BuppUes 

WASHINGTON,  Feb.  28.— The  Mexi- 
can consul  at  Kl  Paso  requested  today 
the  American  collector  of  customs  there 
to  forbid  the  exportation  of  American 
Koods  into  .Tuare?.  The  treasury  de- 
partment has  taken  tiP  "the  question 
with  the  depnrtm"nts  of  ,s!jili;  and 
justice. 

The  matter  of  slopplnp  all  siipplies 
la  regarded  by  the  state  department  as 
a  delicate  one.  A  considerable  district 
Is  dependent  upon  .iuarey.  for  its  sup- 
plies, and  the  cutting  off  of  exports 
from  El  Paso,  It  Is  feared,  would  cause 
much    sufferlnK. 

It  Is  tmderstood  that  the  Mexican 
ambnssador  Is  preparlUK  to  lay  before

Changes  Suggested  to  Aug- 
ment Water  Supply  from  Elk

of  Supply 


Following  the  ilnfortnailon  furnished 
at  la.sl  Monday  cvenlnjf's  nieftlnK  of 
the  city  council  by  Water  Commission- 
er Raymur.  that  the  water  In  Elk  Lake 
Is  at  present  at  the  lowest  point  at 
this  time  of  the  yetir  in  several  years, 
and  that  consequently  not  a  ciropshoulo 
be  wasted,  even  for  street  sprinkling, 
beyond  what  Is  absolutely  netreasary 
for  the  latter  purpose,  Alderman  Cuth- 
boTt.  following  up  his  suggestion  matit. 
on  hearing  tlie  official's  statement,  will 
r.rc«  upon  the  council  the  necessity  of 
prompt  action  towards  ensuring  a  morb 
generous  Hupply  than  the  present  plant 
is  capable  of  produclni,'.  Yesterday  tht. 
representative  of  Ward  Four  posted  a 
notice  oi  a  motion  which  he  will  submit 
at  the  next  meeting  to  the  eftect  that 
the  water  commissioner  be  Instructed 
to  prepare  a  report  as  to  the^advlsabl^i-

Based  on  t'hlB  operation  far  reaching

to  the  curing  of  bllndnesB.  These  are. 
unfortunately,  exactly  as  Utile  Justified 
as  the  statement  that  this  -operation  Is 
entirely  new,  says  a  •^f's]  known  Herlbi 
medical    publlclMl. 

"As    a    uiatter    of    fact."    he    says.    "11

eye    couid    not    endure.      Later    the   cor- 
nea of  animals  was  used,  but  unfortun- 
at«ly  it   was  se^n  that  the  pieces   which 
bud     been     ln««-rted     euccessfully     theni-

or   montiis,    so    that    the   patient    was     a.s 
badly    off    as    before.      Finally,    this    op- 
eration   waM    performed      (first      by      E. 
Fuehs,    In   Vienna)    by    transplanting     a 
human  cornea,  through  which  some  good 
or  at  least   fairly   durable,   results   were 
attained.      The   first  of   these   successful 
oiieratlons    was    performed    by    ZIrm    in 
Olmutz.      Accounts     of     several      others 
were  published  later,  among   them     one 
by   Prof.    Greeff,    in    Berlin,    who   report- 
ed  an    Improvement    In    the   strength    of 
vision   of   his   patient   of  one-fiftieth    Po 
one-twentieth.      The    results    are    up    to 
now   In   general   in   no  wise  remarkaViIe, 
but  Jt   Is   to  be   hoped   that    the  dlfHcuU 
technique  of  tlie  process  will  be  further 
improved.  ~

probably  it  would  b*  necessary  to  pump 
the  water  from  Beaver  LAke 'Into  th« 

niter  beds.  At  present  the  intaito  pipe 
draws  Its  supply  from  Beaver  Lake,  the 
sliallow  adjunct  of  Dlk  lake.  Not  only 
Alderman  Cuthbert.  but  others  of  thu 
board  as  well  as  many  ■citizens  main- 
tain that  the  supply  In  Elk  lake,  which 
has  an  average  depth  ot  between  60  and 
60  feet,  would  be  ample  for  ail  needa 
were  better  facilities  for  pumping  in- 
stalled. They  sugrgest  the  extension 
of  the  intake  pipe  out  Into  the  deepei 
waters  of  the  lake.  In  such  case  the 
water  can  be  drawn  up  to  a  much 
greater  extent  than  if  the  Intake  is  al- 
lowed to  remain  as  it  Is  in  Beaver  lake, 

i'.ill,   becomes   very   shallow. 

The  Sooke  lake  scheme  will  not  be 
completed  for  two  years  at  the  least, 
and  the  city's  supply  must  bo  secured 
from  Elk  lake  unless  It  bo  augmented 
through  the  city's  right  to  purchase 
water  by  the'  gallon  from  the  Esquimau 
Water  Works  Company.  If  the  latter 
step  be  not  adopted,  necessary  changes, 
several  members  of  the  council  aver, 
must  be  made  to  the  present  limited 
pumping  facilities  at  Elk  lake.

GRAND  CONCERT 

THURSDAY,  MARCH  2ist. 
AT   THE   ALEXANDRA   HALL 


MAN'CHE:STER,  Eng..  Feb.  28. — 
.Something  new  in  the  way  of  ghosts  is 
reported  to  hOrVe  made  Us  appearance 
recently  in  the  nurses'  home  at  the 
Manchester  Royal  Infirmary,  and  timid 
nurses  and  ward  maids  have  crept  T>e- 
tween  the  sheets  fervently  lioping  that 
the  weird  visitant  ■ft'ould  not  disturb 
their  slumbers. 

It  is  no  orthodox  ghost  that  Is  said 
to  'have  been  haunting  ih©  nurses' 
apartments.  According  to  th>5  most  au- 
thentic story  the  apparition  is  of  the 
feminine  pef.suaslon,  and  la  ciacfin  a 
long  black  gown  and  stole,  the  only 
relief  to  its  sombre  meke-up  being  its 
ghastly  white  face,  its  long  sinuous 
nngers  and  blanched  lifeless  hands. 

In  such^fOim  at  all  events  it  Is 
said  to  have  presented  Itself  to  a  nurse 
some  weeks  ago.  She  had  been  out  dur- 
ing- the  eveninp.  and  on  being  admitted 
was  passing  along  tlie  corridor  towards 
her  room  when  she  noticed  the  figure  of 
H  woman  a  few  |>aces  before  her.  Thlnk- 
ins.--  "the  lady  "  had  made  a  mistake  and 
had  got  Into  the  premises  In  error,  she 
hastened  to  overtake  "her,"  and  was  in 
the  act  of  tapping  her  shoulder  when 
the  apparition  disappeared. 

When  the  story  was  told  to  her  fal- 
low nurses  a  search  of  the  premises 
was  demanded.  N'lght  porters  and  others 
lay  in  wait  for  the  unwelcome  visitant, 
but  their  vigils  \Vere  unavailing.  Not 
that  the  "ghost"  had  sought  fresh 
haunts,  for  new  stHJries  of  a  terrifylnK 
nature  continued  to  be  circulated.  Ward- 
maids  told  of  how  the  spectral  figure 
dlsensraged  Itself  from  the  hangings  of 
a  friendly  curtain  and  darted  across 
the  passage  before  them  to  be  swallow- 
ed  up  In   a  doorway  or  corridor. 

Pokers  and  flat  irons  were  by  this 
time  nndlng  their  way  into  t*e  sleep- 
ing (apartments,  but.  according  to  the 
story  told  by  one  yoimg  lady,  these 
precautions  ovailed  them  nothing,  for 
In  the  early  liourn  of  one  morning  she 
was  startled  to  find  a  clammy  hand 
stretched  over  her  face. 

"Have  you  seen  the  lady  in  black?' 
became  the  catch-word  In  the  home. 
The  incredulous  onef:  asked  It  Jesllngly, 
but  to  some  overstrung  Imaginations 
the  thing  was  no  Joke,  and  many  un- 
comfortable nights  were  pa.«sed.  Kor  a 
time  it  was  the  popular  theory  .that 
"the  Khost"  owed  Its  existence  to  the 
prank  of  some  medical  student,  but  in- 
v.stlKatlon?.    did    not    support    this    vIpw. 


PARIS,  Feb.  28.— Good  fo  ,^„,,,^ 
befallen  the  employees  of  ii.  Delatour 
a  wholesale  boot  and  shoe  maker,  who 
has  two  factories,  one  in  Paris  and 
the  other  at  Llancourt.  M.  Delatour  la 
a  self-made  man,  and  for  forty  years 
has  worked  harder  than  any  of  hl.s  men. 
Today  he  is  a  iniillonaire,  but  has 
neither  wife  nor  children  to  share  his 
riches. 

One  day  recently  he  was  obliged  to 
remain  at  home  through  indisposition, 
and  as  he  passed  the  kitchen  he  sur- 
prised his  old  servant  in  tears.  In  re- 
ply to  him  she  said  she  was  depressed 
at  the  thought  of  what  would  happen 
to  her  if  he  dismissed  her.  The  inci- 
dent set  M.  Delatour  thinking,  and  ' 
next  day  he  sent  for  his  lawyer  and 
settled  an  annuity  on  the  old  woman 
for  life. 

But  he  did  not  stop  there.  He  re- 
solved to  hand  over  the  works  to  his 
employees,  and  under  his  instructions 
the  lawyer  drew  up  a  deed  transferring 
the  birtldings  and  plant  and  stock  to

BERLIN.    Feb.   28. — News   of  a    senaa- 

Pormed  by  Dr.  Magitot  In  Paris,  and 
(le»crlbed  by  Professor  lustre  in  the 
French  Academy  of  Scientie  was  spread 
a  snort  time  ago  by  the  press.  The 
case  was  that  of  a  young  man  with  a 
marked  opacity  of  the  cornea,  whore  the 
operator  out  out  the   opaque  piece  and 


wild  enthusiasm,  3,000  citizens  as- 
sembled in  Messey  hall  tonight  and 
passed  a  resolution  protesting  against 
the  granting  of  home  rule  to  Ireland. 
The  sentiment  of  the  gathering  was 
unanimous.  At  times  the  desire  for 
this  expression  became  so  pronounced 
with  the  audience  that  the  speakers 
were  forced  to  desist  until  the  cries  of 
"Mo  home  rule."  "Nevpr."  or  groans  at 
the  mention  of  Winston  Churchill's 
name  or  at  the  name  of  Sir  Edward 
Grey,    had    died    down. 

The  resolution  states  that  the  belief 
of  the  meeting  Is  that  home  rule  would 
result  in  the  separation  of  xr«l<»na  from 
the  empire  and  declares  that  separation 
Is  the  goal  of  the  movement. 

•■We      believe      further,    that       Ireland 
could,    in    time,  become    the   centre   of  a 
conspiracy   agnlnst    the   integrity   of    the 
British   Kmplre.    and    might     ultimately 
lead   to    the  overthrow   of     the     Brltl.sh 
power   and    Influence    that,    as    Qanadlan 
cltUens.    we    rejolqe    In.      We    believe    in 
the      extension      of      the      principle      of 
autonomy,  when   It  can  be  grnnted  with 
.«afety   to   Imperial   Interest."!,   but   believ- 
ing as   wa  do   that   the   peace  and   pros- 
perity  of   the   nations   of    the   world    are 
involved  in  the  maintenance  of  the  Brit- 
ish   empire,    we    view    with    the    utmost 
alarm    the    propo.«als    contained    in      the 
bill  coming  before  the  Imperial  house  of 
commons,  which  .tend  not  to  the  enlarge- 
ment of  the  liberties  of  the  Irish   people 
undpr   a    free    government,    but    to      the 
.•rentlon  of  a  papal  slate  within   the  pm- 
plre,   where   British   law   and   Justice   will 
he  superseded  by  the  canonical   law     of 
the  papacy,   as   Is  the  case  In   the  prov- 
ince  of   Quebec    ih    this    Dominion;    and, 
further,    tlml    we    unhesitatingly    declare 
that  the  views  set  out  In  this  resolution 
present   the  opinions  of   the   vast   major- 
ity  of  loyal   cltlzpns  in   the   Dominion   of 
Can.ada,  notwith.'itnnding  the  expressions 
of  sympathy  with  Jiomc  r\i1p  adopted  at 
different    times    by    the      parliament      of 
Canada    and    the      legislatures      of      the 
provinces.

sight    of    the    fundamental    principle    of 
parliamentary  jtovemment  as  far  as  the 
voting   of  supply   Is   concerned.      It  is  a 
settled   rule   that   redress  of  gricvanceB 
must  be  preliminary   to   the  passage  of 
supply.     F'atlure  by   the  ministry   to  ex- 
plain  how   certain   sums   of   money   has 
been  expended  may  be  treated  as  a  irrlev-

shall  say  nothing  pending  the  receipt  of 
a  copy  of  the  plans. 

If  18  very  evident  that  connection  with 
the  new  piers  must  be     provided,     ^or 

wharf  accommodation  at  the  point  mcn- 
tured  without  connection  wUh  the  ra.l- 
v.ys  would  be  of  little  real  value.  There 
are  two  ways  An  which  this  connection 
can   be  made,     one  of  them  is  l^   the 
proposed  Harbor  Kallway:   the  other  is 
b7  way  of  a  bridge  from  Songh^cs  Point 
to  Laerel  Point:  that  is.  across  the  nar- 
row channel  where  the  soap  works  now 
Bij-nd.     The  first  method  Is     objection- 
able', in  our  judgment.     One  of  the  rea- 
sons why  we  take  exception  to  it  is  that 
it  would  place  the  control  of  the  harbor 
frontage  in  the  hands  "of  a  few  private 
.  individuals.     The     franchise  would     be 
on»  of  extremely  great  value,  a  value  to 
be  measured    in  mlUlons.      The   city    of 
Vancouver  l»  an  object  lesson  or  wnn . 
the  control  of  a  waterfront  means.     In 
xiew  of  the  great  commercial  possibili- 
ties  before   Victoria.   It  would   be    rank 
felly   to  permit  any   corporation  to  en- 
circle the  harbor  with  a     railway  line. 
Xnothcr    objection    is    that    such    a   rall- 
^vav   would   be   Utterly   Inadequate.     We^ 
are   looking   for    the    establishment  here 
o-  a  great   commercial  centre.     To   the 
wharves  to  be  constructed  atf  the  Outer 
Harbor  we  expect  to  see  vessels  come  to  • 
receive  and  discharge  full  cargoes,  when 
v.r.  have     all-rail     cornecti^jn     with    the 
.Mainland  and  car^fcrry  "connecHon  with 
five  railways  on  the  southern  Mainland, 
provided   we   have   flrst-ciass     facilities 
here.     To  suggest  that  trains  laden  with 
cargo  brought  or  to  be  carried  away  by 
such  ships  should  be  drawn  along  a  rail- 
way following  the  sinuosities  of  tho  In- 
ner Harbor  is  an  absurdity.      Kither  we 
must  have   the  suggested  bridge  or   the 
icieign    business     of     the  port,    will   be 
liKudicd  elsewhere  than   between  Ogden 
colnt    and    the    entrance    to    the    Inner 
Harbor. 

j.-or   these  reasons   we  look   upon  the 
l.aurel  Point  bridge  as  essentially  nccs- 
sary   to  the  utility   of   the  intended  har- 
bor works  at  Ogden  Point.     We  refer  to 
this   matter  today   because   we  wish,  ns 
far  as  wc  arc  in  a  position  to  do  so.  to 
m.'tkc  known  what  wc  believe  is  the  opin- 
ion of  the  great  majority  of  the  people 
of   xhis  city.      A    matter      of     this     kind 
ought    not    to    be   allowed    to   drifi.     We 
do  not  say  that  there  is  any  opposition 
to    the   proposed   bridge,   but  some   may 
develop,  and   we  think   it   to  be  our  duty 
to   say    lu    n'^    undeitaln    terms   that  the 
people   of    this    city    consider   that,    with 
the    contemplated    improvement.^^    of    the 
Outer   Hpr>?or   on    tlif-      rn?'.      ^i'l".      tin-

An  Italian  resident  of  Victoria  pro- 
tests  against  the  harsh  comments  upon 
people  of  his  natlonalty  appearing  from 
time  to  time  in  news  ntms  from  othor 
cities  on  this  continent.  It  Is  only 
right  to  say  that  the  Italian  clement  of 
the  populMlffn  of  Vlctorlti  is  among 
the  mf^plerly  and  that  the  older 
residents  here,  who  came  from  Italy. 
always  show  themselves  to  be  excellent 
cltl^sens.  '

THE    DUKB  TO  VISIT  tJS 

His  Boyal  Highness  the  Duke  of  Con- 
naught,  accompanied  by  the  Duchess, 
will  visit  British  Columbia  m  the  au- 
tumn.  It  goes  without  saying  that  the 
welcome  extended  to  them  will  be  a 
very  cordial  one. 

It  is  not  premature  to  suggest  t'rmt 
aneaiiybpginning  should  be  mado' on 
plans  for  the  reception  of  their  Royal 
Highnesses.  Pending  the  election 
nothink   .  -:  l>ne.  we  assume:    but 

we  suggest  that,  as  soon  as  it  is  over, 
the  mayor  should  take  the  initiatory 
sfteps  towards  a  civic  reception  that 
will  be  worthy  of  Victoria  and  of  sudi 
distinguished    visitors.

Wc   are    gravely    assured      that      "tlie 
guarantee    period    of    the    Paciflc    Great 
Kastern    bonds    is    not    less    thnn     foriv 
y,.„,s,    whirh    means    that    Mr.    McBrlde 
will    make    it    tlfty    years    as    has    been 
authentically    rumored."      This    Is    sup- 
posed to   be     an     exceedingly     dreadful 
thing.      The    only    difference    between    a 
40-ycar   guaranteed   bond   and  «    oO-year 
guaranteed   bond     Is     that      t  >>,      public 
would  pay  more  for  the  latter  than   for 
the    former,     end      hence      the      capital 
charges    against    the   railway    wotJid    be 
so   much    the    less.      But.    if   as    we   are 
ft.iked  to  believe,  the  guaranteeing  of  the 
bonds  means  that  the  province  will  have 
to   pay    them,    It    i"    sim-1n-    hfttrr    to   put 
oft  the  evil  day  Hfty  years  than  to  have 
it   come    in    fr.;ty.      We    hove    heard      no 
suggestion    of    PNtfiullnR    the    guarantee 
to  flfty  years,  but  wc  do  say  that  if  we 
lw.d    so    iKJor    an   opinion    of   the    future 
of  British  Columbia  as  to  believe  a  rail- 
way  diagonally      across      this      province 
from    V.incouvpr    to    Port    Oeorge    would 
be    more    likely    to  default   on    Its    bonds

Objection  has  oeen  taken  to  the  early 
ilftte   fixed    for   the  nomination  of  candi- 
dates at  the  forthcoming  election,  which 
1^   to  be   th-  11th   Inst.,  and  not  the  i:th 
as  announced.     We  are  Inclined  toL-think 
the      length      of      time      between  \^nom- 
Ination    and    election    Is    In    the    interest 
o'  the  gentlemen  who  arc  chosen  by  the

always  be  some  uncertainty  until    noin- 
inatlon  day  as  to  who  will     bo     in  the 
field,   and   a  new   randldato     is     always 
under  a  disadvantapo  in  having  the  date 
postponed  until  a  short  period  before  an 
election.      The    regular    political    parties 
never   wait   until    nomination   day   before 
putting  their  mcp   In   the  field,  and   it   l^: 
•an   advantage  to   them   to   know  ns   early 
as  possible  If  there  ftre  to  be  any  otners 
before    the    electors.      On    consideration 
we  think  most  people  will  agree  with  us 
that    it    is    advantageous,    especially    to 
opjxiKlilon  i^andldatos.  to  have  the  nom-

to  him  to  the  effect  that  «  C8-foot  road-

upon  a  one-third  contribution  for  the

vigorously  combatting  the  proposed

LONDON,  Feb.  28. — In  the  course  of 
an  interview  yesterday  Sir  Ernest 
Shackleton  gave  some  interesting  In- 
formation regarding  the  probability  of 
early  news  from  the  various  Antarctic 
erpedltlons. 

"There  are,"  he  said,  "fl\e  expedi- 
tions In  the  Antarvtli;,  British,  Aus- 
tralian, Norwegian,  German  and  Japa- 
nese. Ot  liie  British,  liiicier  Cajjiaiii 
Scott  and  the  Norwegian,  under  .\mun?- 
.•^en,  we  may  hear  at  an.v  moment.  T-"'or 
reasons  which  T  wlU  explain,  I  would 
not  be  surprised  If  Amundsen's  ne\\8 
came'to  hand  first. 

"In  view  of  the  competition.  It  is 
certain  that  Scott  woj^ld  leave  the  base 
in  MKctnuruu  Siraii  ai  the  earliest  poR- 
slble  moment.  This  would  be  about 
February  10.  He  should  reach  Steward 
•  Island.  New  Zealand,  three  weeks  later, 
as  he  has  to  stop  at  Cape  .\dalr  to  pick 
up  some  0f  his  party. 

■'Amundsen  will  make  his  way  to  Ho- 
liait  from  his  .\ntarctlc  base  in  the 
Ba>'  of  Whales.  .M though  he  will  have 
a  lonscr  return  Journey  than  Scott,  he 
has  no  parly  to  pick  up,  and  prevailing 
winds  will  heip  his  ship,  whereas  Scott 
will  have  to  beat  up  against  a  we.sterly 
wind.  It  i.s  for  this  reason  that  I 
.should  not  be  .surprised  if  news  from 
.\iriundKen    came    first. 

"In  tlie  case  of  Dr.  Mawson's  expe- 
dition the  Australian  ship  the  Aurora, 
should  arrive  at  Jlol)art  about  the  he- 
glnnim?  of  April  with  news  as  to  the 
exui't  places  where  his  party  hus  been 
landed  p.nd  proba'jly  with  definite  im- 
portant mformatlon  as  to  wheth>r  the 
eoast  line  of  Walker  I>and  exl.«!ts  or 
not. 

"In  all  probability  the  ships  of  the 
German  expedition,  under  Lieut.  Fllrh- 
encr,  is  well  frozen  in  the  AA'eddeil  Sea. 
As  there  is  mere  Ice  there  than  in  •ny 
part  of  t.)iB  f\ntarrtic  h«  may  havs 
found  no  proper  landing  place,  and 
therefore  has  kept  his  ship  as  froznn 
In  baSe.  He  will  be  first  heard  of  at 
Punta  Arenas  or  Buenos  Ajies  if  his 
vessel  has  not  been  imprisoned  in  the 
Ice   the   last   of  April. 

•The  expedition  of  the  Japanese, 
which  left  for  the  purpose  of  frolns  to 
the  Bay  of  Whales,  I  do  not  regard  «ti 
serious,  and  It  need  not  be  taken  Into 
account    In    the    South    Pole    races."

VilE.VNA,  Feb.  28.— It  Is  reiported  that 
the  war  estimates  for  the  current  year 
will  make  some  provision  for  an  aero- 
nautic station  at  Pola,  where  naval 
officers  tan  be  trained  to  fly  the  aero- 
planes, wihlch  will  In  the  future  be 
attached  to  the  Austrian  fleet.  Ap- 
parently only  about  $5,000  will  be  asked 
for  this  yea.r  us  a  first  instalment,  as 
the  war  minister  has  entered  into  a 
blndlifjt  promise  not  to  Increase  the 
estimates  beyond  an  amount  already 
fixed.  However,  the  government  seems 
to  expect  tiiai  ihe  deievatiuns  will 
themselves  volunteer  to  vote  a  large 
sum — over  $300,000  haa  ■be<>n  spohon

Woman    and    Oonntry    Ufe 

Is  the  tendency  to  crowd  into  the 
cities  which  seoms  common  to  the  old 
world  as  to  t^he  new,  the  fault  of 
women  chiefly?  Dean  Russell,  a  VVls- 
conaln  professor  of  agriculture,  says 
that  It  in  woman's  dlaiike  of  drudgery 
and  her  louKing  for  excitement  that 
causes  the  migration  of  thf  fainily  to 
tho  city  or  that  frustrates  tlic  ettorts 
of  those  economlats  and  philanthropists 
who  are  promoting  the  back-to-che- 
f.n  ni  movement.  He  c<insider.s  that 
this  Is  one  of  the  '•Igns  that  tho  now

any    kind.      But    no    such    luww    can    ktep 
residents  of  cither  city  or  country   from 
becoming    poor,    sick    or    wicked,    if    con- 
ditions  are    unfavorable.      In      «-^r      own 
great  province  it   Ih  far  mort  important 
that    the    population    ijiiaU    be    effblent 
than    that    It    shall    be   numerous,    necea- 
sary   though   it   Is   to  establish   Industries 
and  develop  the  farming  and  fruit  lands 
of   our  valleys.      In    the   eslubll.«hm»'nt   of 
an   excellent   school   sy.stem  a   very   good 
beginning    has    b<  en-  made.      No    matter 
how    fast    or    how    large    the    (,'rowth    of 
the  population  of  UrltlHh  Columbly   may 
be,  schools   will  be   ready   for  the   rising 
generation.      It      is    hardly      «?oncelvablc 
that      wldespri-ail      ignorance      can      tver 
exist    in    our    province.      Btit    It    is   to    be 
r<.-ared    that     there    are    other    way.s      In 
which    we    ar.'    not    preparid    for    an    In- 
flux   of    many    sirangerH,    whether    from 
the     mother     country     or    from     foreign 
lands.      In    the    Pacific    States    prepara- 
tions are  being  made  for  new  condlltonM 
and   it    would    be   wist   for   us    to   follow 
the  example  they  are  setting.     It  is  not 
only  the  government  and   transportation 
companleK   that   Khould   be   prepared.

A  Oood  Plan 

In  San  Francisco -there  are  m- 

a  hundred  local  ini^fovementcl! 

more   tJjan;   half   of  them   aro.  active. 

These  societies  take  iipon  tb<?tnsrt;lve.'*>. 

duties  of  all  kinds  which  tend  to  mJiKe 

the  citizens   better  or   to   supply   their 

neighborhoods  with  improved  facl'ltlea. 

It  appears  that  there  is  no  little  rivalry 

between  these  clubs,  and  that  this  cups 

not  always   tend    to    the   good   of  the 

whole  city.     On  the  other  hand,  r-mch 

has  been  done  both  to  beautify  ns-lgh- 

i.i.rhi.ods  and  to  help  residents  tollvi; 

licttt-r  lives.         ■ 

In    Vict. Ilia    there  is  much  roonv  for 
.sudi    work.     Although  we  do  hot  yet 
live  In  a  largeclty  We  are  falling  Intt* 
the  fault  of  detachment  which  is  one 
of   the   most   harmful    features   of  clt.v 
life.      People   are    coming    to    Victoria 
from  all  directions.    In  the  same  nelgfi 
borhood  lamillea  from   England,  Scot- 
land  and    the    Atlantic    provinces,    the 
Middle  West,  and  perhaps  from  South 
Africa,  New  Zealand  and  Austrnlla  are 
to  be  found  living  near  the  homes  made 
by  the  sons  and  daughters  of  Victoria's 
old-timers.     There  are  among  old  resi- 
dents  many  who  have  means  and  leis- 
ure to  enlnrxo  their  iMrcle  of  acquaint- 
ances,   to   :inv    f-x tent  consistent   with 
their  Inclination.     But  this  is  not  true 
of  all.    Most  bt  us  are  very  busy  people 
and    those   who   have   been   here   manj 
ycar.s    have   as    many    friends    as    they 
can    entertain    or    have    time    to    visit. 
Wo    excuse    ourselves    from   calling   01. 
the   newcomers.     The   men.   very  prob- 
ably   know    each    other    in    a    business 
way:     the    children    must    mlnfrle    to- 
gether In  the  classrooms;    but  the  wo- 
men have  no  common  Interests.     They 
may  meet  >n  the  ears  or  In  the  shops; 
but  they  d6  not  know  each  other,  even 
by    name.        This    l.s    not   a    wholesomf. 
sign   of  city   growth.     The  people   wno 
live   in   the   same   neighborhood   should 
i,«  friendly.     It  Is  lor  th«  bencHt  of  ^n 
that    their      .stirroundingti      should      be 
beautiful;    that   the   schoolhouses   sii.tII 
be  spacious  and  In  every  way  suited  to 
the  edu<?atlon   of  the  rhildren.  and   tint 
playgrounds   shall   be   pro\lded.     These 
and  many_other  things  would  be  among 
the   matters   to    be  considered   I'l    '.oc«« 
Improvement   cluljs.     If  men   aiid    Wo- 
men  met  together     to     discuss     these 
things  the  consequences   would   be  not 
only   better  neighborhoods  but  happier 
and  more  united  citizens.     It  only  :i<  eds 
some  one  with  good  sense,  good  feeling 
and  enthusiasm   to  set  on  ifioL  In  Vic- 
toria  a    movement   lliat  has   proved   in 
other   places    lo    l>c   a   useful    ractor   In

in  the  hands  of  a  competent  teacher, 
the  very  best  place  to  receive  a  prim-

In  placing  In  the  estimates  the  sum  of 
ten  thousand  dollars  for  the  Home  for 
AKed  and  Infirm  women,  tht  govern- 
ment is  entitled  to  the  gratitude  of  the 
citizens  of  Victoria.  This  Institution  has 
been  the  means  of  doing  a  vast  amount 
of  good;  It  is  very  wen  manaKe-i  and 
the  commlttet  In  charge  of  it.  spare 
neither  time  energy  or  thought  In  the 
service  of  the  old  ladles. 

It  has  been  found  absolutely  necessary 
to  provide  an  infirmary  for  thtlr  sick 
and  helpless  charges.  No  hospital  can 
minister  to  the  needs  of  those  whose 
inflrmltles  are  caused  by  old  age  and 
whose  suffering  can  only  end  with 
death.  The  natural  place  for  such  pa- 
tients Is  the  home  where  Kentle  hands 
ma  y  minister  to  their  wants  and  chtrct- 
ful  ttnder  kindness  make  the  close  of 
life  bright.  But  where  no  relatives  are 
left,  sueh  services  can  only  be  render- 
ed In  a  place  devoted  to  the  care  of 
patltnts  of  thlH  class  alone. 

Kvor  since  the  new  home  w;i5<  oi.ened, 
part  of  the  old  wooden  building  has 
served  as  an  Infirmary.  U  is  now  quite 
too  old  to  be  used  any  longer.  Besides 
thl.<»,  therf  are  no  lonpcer  any  rooms  to 
saper  in  Uhb  main  building  and  sevcrnl 
applications  have  been  received  from 
women   needing   shelter. 

It  Is  absolutely  nect.ssary  to  eompletn 
the  building  by  erecting  a  new  wInK. 
It  is  towards  this  work  that  the  Me- 
Bride  government  has  trlven  this  gener- 
ous grant.  The  work  will  now  be  pro- 
leeded  with  as  rapidly  (is  poaslbU  and 
as  rinc  an  inr*titutIon  complrted  as  .any 
of  Us  kind  m  any  city  In  Canada. 


SAX     FHANCTSCO.     Feb.     2S.— The 

north   wind    during    the   last    few   days 

has  been   doing  to  northbound  vessels 

what  the  south  wind  did  a  few  weeks 

ago   to  the  Bouthbound   fleet.     Vessels 

bound   here  from    the   north    now    ,ire 

shaking  record  tlme.^     '' 

south  are  tardy;    but  tbt.    ^u  i.u..>     ■ 

good  excuse.     The  steamship  Hanalel, 

here    yesterday    from    San    Pedro    -was 

seventy-three    hours    making    the    run. 

Her  usual   time   Is  n   hours.     It 

took    the   Katherlnt  x    hours    to 

make  the  same  trip,  and     the     speedy 

Harvard,  which  usually  makes  the  run 

in  railroad  time,  and  Is  piinctual  as  n 

railroad   watch,  arrived  at  6  o'cloclc   in 

the  afternoon   instead   of   early   In   the 

forenoon. 

An  elglity-mile-an-hour  north  win.l 
which  stirred  up  a  mountMinous  sea. 
was  to  blame  for  the  diis-'irrangcmeni  dC 
schedules.  Captain  Hammer  of  the 
Hanalel  says  that  it  was  the  roughest 
trip  he  ever, made  on  the  coast.  Alter 
Captain  Hammer  gave  up  trying  t- 
make  time  and  slowed  down  the 
engines,  the  Hanalel  rode  the  seas  liU. 
a  cork.  For  those  whose  stom.uh:; 
could  stand  this  defiance  of  the  law  oT 
gravity  this  climbing  up  one  side  of  u 
water  mountain  and  coasting  down  the 
(pther  hail  all  the  exhilaration  of  shoot- 
ing the  chutes,  with  no  i>ause  betWOen 
descents  and  ascents. 

The  only  damage  sustained  ii>  ili  • 
Hanalel  was  to  lier  mlzzen  rigging,  and 
this  was  fixed  in  a-few  hours  aft6r  the 
vessel  reached  port.  _      ________

Vancouver  Zaland  Normal  Scbool. 

The   news   that  a   Normal    school    will 
be   opened   In    this   city   will   be   warmly 
welcomed  by  parents  as  well  as  by  stu-

pvlilenlly    hopes    It    will.    In    an    increa;<e 
In    the   number   of    teachers    in    the    pro-

would  rHtlier  keep  their  daughters  under 
eighteen   at   home   even    If   to   do   so,    tin 
Klrls    must    take   up    some    employment

Messrs.  Burite,  Grindell,  Devogt  and 
Ladd.  The  salary  demanded  by  a  player 
of  MeeKa  outstanding  ability  is  more 
than  a  league  of  Class  C  status  is  al- 
lowed to  pay  and  his  purchase  from 
Waco  has  been  througih  that  fact  alone, 
as  he  is  exceedingly  well  liked  there  and 
was  the  brainiest  player  of  the  south- 
ern team. 

Twoinonth.s  ago  when  Manager  Wat- 
telet  was  away  he  flrst  heard  of  Meek. 
He  waa  then  offered  to  Victoria  as  a 
manager.  But  at  that  tlms  .  the  local 
management  had  plans  laid  in  other  di- 
rections RB  r^jjards  a  manaser,  but  was 
willing  to  pay  the  salary  desired  to  se- 
cure his  services.  The  propositton  has 
been  pending  for  this  long  time  owing 
to  the  fact  that  Meek,  who  Is  owner  of 
a  good  business  in  Chattanooga,  ha^^  not 
decided  whether  he  would  like  to  come 
to  the  Coast  to  play  ball.  However,  h« 
has  made  up  his  mind  to  come,  and 
late  yesterday  afternoon  Manager  Wal- 
tolet  received  a  telegram  bearing  the 
joyful  word  of  hla  decision  to  come, 
which  filled  the  local  manager  with  de- 
llsUl.

Mi  1  k'  record  alone  speaka  for  Itself, 
and  ail  the  adjectives  in  the  language 
could  not  tell  any  more  than  the  tlgures 

■of  this  years  1912  official  baseball 
S'Uide.  He  hit  just  .310  last  season, 
which  counted  most  in  run  getting  for 
his  team.  "Meek  la  a  pinch  hitter  pure 
and  simple."  says  his  former  team 
manager.  The  former  waa  'field  captain 

.  of  Waco. 

i»4  .jfameis  he'  «^8l*»t^l«*l  3S3  PJit 
oo^tB  with  the  remarkable  assist  record 
of  123,  whloh  shows  that  he  must  have 
caught  a  few  on  the  bases,  and  that 
no  one  but  Ty  Cobbs,  etc.,  are  going 
to  get  by  him.  Hf«  harriiMl,  all  told.  473 
chan'ces  with  but  13  errors,  a  record 
that    will    take   some   heating    in    minor 

put  in  the  averages  against   him.   Now 
that  is  some  record.  In  that  same  boo.  . 
son  only  69  bases  were  stolen  from  Mr. 
.Meek. 

Meek  is  27  years  old,  has  had  plenty 
of  experience  in  handling  pitchers  and 
uses  his  head  in  the  same  fashion  that 
I.,ewls.  the  mainstay  of  Vancouver's 
champion  team,  did  last  year.  Meek  is 
there  in  every  capacity  as  a  ball  player. 
Mis  purcharte  will  never  be  regretted  If 
lie  delivers  to  the  Bees  what  ho  has 
(lone  elsewhere.  Ho  measures  six  feet 
in  liclghi  and  has  a  wonderful  throwing 
arm. 

in  1910  Meek  played  in  the  Southern 
League  with  Chattanooga,  wlilch  la  a 
clnss  A  league.  Here  he  appeared  in  40 
games,  made  16X  put  outs  with  .",7  as- 
sists and  4  errorn.  His  official  fielding 
percentage  for  that  sea8.on  read  .980, 
which  Is  a  wonderful  mark  for  the  dif- 
ficult i>osltlon  behind  the  hitter.  He  fin- 
ished  fourth  in   the  league  and   hit  .."^OO. 

Now  Victoria  will  have  a  most  reli- 
able catcher  and  batter,  who.  with  Nor- 
dyke  hitting  at  the  .same  clip,  will  give 
the  Bees  at  least  two  ,  Htf>nay  heavy 
hitters.

Arranging  for  Another  with 
Kossick 


SA'SK.\TOON,  Feb.  28.— George 
Saumweber,  manager  for  Loe  Kossick, 
writes  the  following,  in  which  he  re- 
plies to  Harry  Bernard,  managet'  of  Joe 
Bayley.  From  wihat  he  says'  there 
would  still  .seem  to  be  a  chance  for  a 
match  being  arrangetl  between  hln 
protege,  "Young"  Kossick.  and  Joe 
Bayley,  but  It  does  not  look  as  though 
It  will  be  scheduled  for  another  couple 
of  months.  Mr.  Saumweber's  letter  is 
as  follows: 
Sporting  Editor,  Saskatoon  Capital: 

Sir, — In  reply  to  Mr.  Bernard's  letter 
1  will' say  i;nat  136  ioa.  la  lair  euoUKli 
for  Kossick  but  his  actual  welgtit  la  140 
lbs.  He  can  make  the  lighter  weight  in 
warm  weather  readily  enough,  but  if 
Mr.  Bernard  is  willing  for  Bayley  to 
meet  my  boy  at  140  lbs.  I  will  consent, 
and  be  ready  at  a  week's  notice.  This 
also   applies   to   any    of    the    so-called

are  several.     I  have  reference  to  those 

.  cnat  cannot  really  make  the  lightweight 

limit,  but  go  in  anywhere  from  135  lbs. 

up.    Now,  If  they  cannot  make  the  one 

division,   why   not   make  the   other?     I 

state  Kosslck's  actual     weight,     which 

some  of  the  other  fistic  artists  refu«o 

to   do.      Kossick   is   a   first   class   man, 

which  his  record  shows,  and  worthy  of 

a  good  match.     We  are.ol.so  willing  to 

give  away  weiglu  in  reason.     Thanking 

you  for  the  space,  T  am,  your.s  truly,

It  Is  possible  that  Ell  Gates  may  be

Becnid  as  though  Vancouvfr  wants  to

Gates,  Without  any  doubt,  was  th»  best 
utility  pitcher  last  scaJion  in  Mip  leapuo. 
He  can  hit. 

Bob  Brown  has  asked  for  waivers  «ti 
FrUk.  Swain.  Gates,  Ous  Thompson  and 
a  couple  more  men.  It  is  not  lll<ely  that 
any  of  them  will  be  ousted  from  the

the  third  week  in  March.  He  is  en- 
joying his  visit  home  with  friends.  The 
bout  Is  to  go  fifteen  rounds. 

In  Riley,  the  local  boy  should  find 
one  of  the  strongest  opponents  he  has 
yet  been  called  upon  to  meet.  The  San 
Franciscan  has  a  knockout  over  "Kid" 
Foley  to  his  credit,  Vias  beaten  Jimmy 
McGarthv  on  points,  and  foug*ht  a  4-

Jack  Johnson  broke  a  number  of  en- 
"^"sments  which  he  oontract^d  to  fill 
when  In  England,  and  seveiral  promoters 
were  considerably  out  of  pocket  because 
of  his  non-appearance.  Some  of  the 
managers  took  civil  action  against  the 
big  smoke  and  one  Frank  McXaujrhton 
has  obtained  judgment  for  £1500.  It  is 
altogether  likely  tliat  other  actions  will 
follow,  and  the  world's  champion  will 
probably  have  to  pay  a  good  f.it  sum 
for  hl«  contempt  of  contracts. 

It  Is  quite  clear  that  In  the  season

tlon,    the    most    commanding    figure    in 
the    history    of    American    lawn    tennis. 
During    the    10-year    perltMl     from     1891 
to    1901    he    was    the    "uncrowned    king 
of    American    tennis,"    although    he    was 
never    quite      abl«    to    capture      the    na- 
tional   title    during    that    time.    He    first 
won    the    chnmplqnship    In    1901,    defeat-

retained    the    title   In    1902   against   R.    F. 
Doherty    of      Englapd,       why    won       tiie 
tournament,    but,  lost   it    In    1903    In    tho 
challenge     rounil     to     Doherty'u    brother, 
H.    L...    who      won    the      tournament      of 
that    year.      I-arned    played    In    the    tour- 
naments    of     1901,     1905     and     1906.     but 
was    defeated    In    1904    by   Karl    Behr    In 
one    ot    the    earlier    rounds,    in    190.S    by 
Beals    Wright     In     the    semi-final    round 
and    m    190fi    by    W.    J.      Clothier    In    the 
same    round,       In    1907       he    again    won 
the     tournament       and     took       the     title 
from    Clothier    by    default    of    tho    chal- 
lenne    round.       Since    that    time    Larnod 
has     .quccessfully      defended     his       title 
against     the      winners    of    the      tourna-

The  fa3PWRIS)rla  High  School  team, 
captained  by  Ed,  Steele,  will  play  with 
Columbia  College  nf  New  Westminster 
on  Saturday  night  In  tills  city,  and  the 
match  promises  to  be  full  of  Interest 
to  the  fans,  who  have  not  by  any 
means  had  their  full  share  of  the  great 
indoor  game  this  winter.  The  local 
lads  played  the  first  public  game  of 
the  season  here  about  two  weeks  ago 
and  were  successful  in  defeating  the 
visiting  Vancouver  Normal  students. 
Now  they  will  go  after  a  stronger  team 
in    the   Columbia  College   quintette. 

The  home  club  will  take  the  floor  as 
loiiowtt;  CouLie,  JS<1  Slcc'c;  suarv-c, 
Clark  and  Foote;  forwards,  Drury  .and 
Newitt.  The  match  will  be  played  at 
the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  building,  commencing 
at  8.30  o'clock. 

Other  trips  have  also  been  announc- 
ed for  the  Yntes  Street  students.  March 
9,  they  will  travel  to  Vancouver  to  mix

turn  match.  Ice  hockey  has  also  taken 
up  their  attention  at  the  school  and  a 
game  will  be  played  in  Vancouver  on 
the  morning  of  the  tmme  day.  The 
locals  have  quite  a  strong  team  and 
will  play  a  practice  game  with  the 
I^niveraity  School  ot  this  city  on  Sat- 
urday morning  at  the  Arena. 

It  rather  looks  as  though  the  McOill 
girls  basketball  team  will  go  to  Nan- 
almo.  alhough  nothing  definite  has 
been  decided.  The  !o«U  girls  are 
rather  timid  about  braving  the  trip  to 
th?  Coal  City  to  meet  the  Yama  Yamas.

OTTAWA,  Feb.  28.— The  Capital  I-a- 
crosse  club  will  probably  change  hands 
again  this  year.  A  syndicate  of  wel 
known  local  sporting  men  believe  that 
a  four-club  league  consisting  ot  Ot- 
tawa Cornwall.  Shamrocks  and  Mon- 
treal can  be  u.ade  a  huge  success  and 
they  are  ready  to  take  the  responsil.il- 
Uy  off  Bllsky's  hands  should  the  latter 
decide  to  sell.  Negotiations  are  now  in 
view  and  If  the  new  firm  takes  hold 
of  the  team  It  will  be  hoisted  up  and 
made  a-  champhmshlp  possibility  If 
money   can   brlUK   Bl>out    the   change.

Ilcflaotlon   In  Number  Ordered  by   Arch- 
btoliop    Causes    Much    Excitement 

In    B0BSl» 

VIF;NNA.  Feb.  28.— Great  excitement 
has  been  caused  In  Bosnia  by  the  action 
of  the  Roman  Catholic  Archbishop  of 
Serajevo.  who  has  reduced  the  number 
of  religious  holidays  in  the  year  from 
fifteen  to  five. 

This  step  was  reconv  "  '  by  tho 
Pope  In  a  receipt  Motu  Pi  uiresscd 

to  thfc  episcopates  In  all  countries,  as 
the  V»ticah  has  been  persuaded  that 
fljHHfipathollcs  are  prejudiced  in  com- 
^^^^w^and  industrial  competition  with 
!  nts  by  the  excessive  number  of 

cnurcii  festivals  on  which  they  are  at 
present  not  allowed  to  work.  Among 
the    days    which    hrT  '    struck    off 

the  list  are  Boxing  1  'cr  Monday, 

Whit  Monday,   Candlemas,  A  ;1on 

I"»ay,  and  CoriviTH  cni-isti.  'J  1  ■  King 
classes    In     I  no    prospect    6f 

having  thtii  .s..sr-  i,i,.^t;d  proportionate- 
ly, and  object  strongly  to  the  loss  of 
the  free  days,  particularly  as  their  Or- 
thodox fellow-cltlzens  have  twenty-five 
holidays  In  the  year,  besldta  Sundays, 
while  there  are  practically  no  I'rotes- 
tants  In  the  province 

Tho  formal  announccnient  of  the  re- 
duction of  the  holidays  <UirinK  the  ser- 
vict  In  the  Roman  Catholic  cathedral 
at  Serajevo  led  to  something  like  a  riot. 
The  congrc.vrations  shouted;  "We  won't 
irlvc  up  our  holidays."  and  assumed  kucIi 
,,  tlireatoning  attitude  that  tho  police 
iiad  to  clear  the  cathedral  and  make 
several  arrests.  Meetings  of  protest 
wert!  then  held  In  the  square  outside, 
and  rioting  in  the,  country  districts  Is 
feared.

Richmond  Park  lots  are  the  only  really  desirable  residential  lots 
inside  the  city  limits  and  close  to  a  car  line  at  first  prices.  Improve- 
ments are  coming  fast,  and  are  of  a  nature  to  enhance  values  quickly. 
A  comparison  of  prices  and  advantages  in  this  district  will  be  greatly  in 
favor  of  Richmond  Park.  The  terms,  too,  are  longer  than  usual  for 
property  so  close  in. 

The  best  way  to  profit  by  the  great  improvements  taking  place  in 
this  district  is  to  secure  one  of  these  lots  at  once.  There  are  not  many 
left  and'  when  they  are  all  sold  there  will  be  no  more  at  this  price.

sult ot  ttiat  explanation  a  campaign 
would  be  started  to  haye  the  negotia- 
tions opened  at  once. 

In  the  general  discussion ^)f  the  fjues- 
tion  which  followed  the  remarks  of  Mr, 
Rattenburj'  it  was  stated  that  if  the 
company  could  be  induced  to  build  a 
great  hotel  in  the  -city  of  Victoria  In- 
Htead  of  Vancouver  it  would  mean  a 
grt:at  boost  for  the  city,  because  it 
would  inevitably  make  the  port  of  Vic- 
toria the  homo  iiort  of  the  company's 
line  of  stf  o  soon  to  be  augment- 

eO.     If  tl.  1  iiccomplished  then  the 

vr'ssolfr-  plying  between  here  and  the 
northern  ports  would  always  make  their 
first  call  at  IhA  port  of  Victor  la,  becaii'^- 
it  would  be  In  the  Interest  of  the  com- 
pany to  keep  the  hotel  as  full  as  pos- 
•'•  '  nembers  of  the  ex- 

fi  ibjcct,  and  evinced 

tJie  heartiest  co-operation  jn  any  steps 
that  might  be  taken  to  bring  the  matter 
to  n  speedy  head.  The  resolution  that 
was  passed  by  the  exchange  upon  the 
matter  provided  that  the'hotel  to  be  built 
must  be  as  commodious  if  not  more  eo 
than  the  Empress,  and  in  order  to  enlist 
the  sympathy  of  the  city  council  a 
r.pccial  meeting  will  be  called  tomorrow 
afternoon,  at  which  the  mayor  and  ald-

Hfnt.  In  fact  the  meeting  is  being  call- 
Al  thus  early  on  account  of  tho  fact  that 
he  has  ijo  leave  for  Montreal  at  the  end

Whatever  may  be  said  about  the  sug- 
gestion, Dr.  ThedRold  Is  well  quallfh-d 
lo  speuk  upon  tht  subject.  He-  Is  con- 
sultlnK  physician  to  the  National  associ- 
ation for  the  care  of  the  feeble-minded, 
anil  won  a  medical  expert  to  the  Royal 
i^ommission  of  the  feeble-mindtd.  If  the 
rece  was  to  advance  some  form  of  .se- 
lection niu«t  clearly  take  tlie  place  of 
natural  selection,  he  urged,  and  (ht  only 
form  was  birth  selection. 

No  person  should  be  allowed  to  marry 
without    n    licence,    which,     should       be 
granted   after  a   medical   exaniinaUon    of 
Mie    Individual    and    an    Inquiry    Into    his, 
or     In  r,     family-     history.       ThI.s       would 
neceBsitjite  the  notlHcatUm  of  partlcuiHrs 
of    tho    birth,    mental    and    physical    con- 
dHlon,    presence    of    disease,    ago,    cause 
of    death,    etc,   of   every    individual    to  a 
central    record   ofHce.      In    thl.M   office    the 
,   noUncation^  would    be    compll.-d    Into    a 
licrsonal   history  sheet    and    the   rehUlon- 
slUp    of    dirferent    Individuals    would    be 
j    readily  traceil  by  a  syMteni  of  cross  ref- 
\    orencps.      Ht    was    convinced,    hp    added, 
that  a  very  larRc  amount  of  the  wretch- 
pdness  of  homo  llfo  resulted  from  hasty, 
ill-considered    'marriafres    rcfrardhsa      of 
the    character    and    menial    mid    physical

Rumors  of  Mr.  Asqulth's  retirement 
grow  more  definite  and  authoritative. 
Still,  it  would  look  at  this  di.stance  as 
though  Mr;  Asquith  could  not  resign  at 
this  juncture — he  eould  only  desert.  A 
few  months  aEO.  one  would  have  said 
that  «ir  Edward  Grey  could  replace 
him  without  friction:  but  the  Radicals 
have  by  now  supplied  the  friction.  The

Wc  are  not  making  any  genera!  re- 
flections on  the  Laurlcr  adTninintratlon, 
which  was  more  helpful  to  some  other 
jirovinces  than  to  British  Columbia. 
.Apologists  of  that  ministry  may  clulm 
that  there  were  reasons  for  the  trouble 
it  gave  this  province.  In  any  case  the 
people  -Tia  U>la  Coast  have  settled  the 
account  to  the  uttermost  nickel.  But 
the  I'findltlons  were  as  we  have  stated. 
Tiiey  are  different  now,  and  wllli  a 
government  at  Ottawa  that  under- 
stands and  appreciates  this  province, 
and  is  disposed  to  help  rather  than 
iilii'di'i'  ilit?  ])rov!ncial  ministry,  Mr.  Mc- 
Brlde  and  his  colleagues  have  vastly 
greater  opportunities  and  prospects 
than  at  any  time  in  the  past.  It  would 
be  possible  to  disturb  these  relations 
and  Introduce  new  troubles  by  retiring 
the  provincial  administration,  but  we 
see  no  sign  of  such  intention. — Van-

"Imported"^ Cigars  arc  much  more  heavily  taxed  than  import-

credited  with  the  l«itent}pii  of  running 
steamers  "  Into  Portland.  JJothing  Is 
known  here  Is  this  rtgiira.  The  Tacoma 
Ledger  says:  "According  to  gossip  In 
local  shipping  circles  the  Nippon  Yustn 
haisha,  operating  a  line  of  .steamers 
from  Tacoma  and  Seattle  to  the  Orient, 
is  to  inaugurate  a  service  from  Port- 
kind  to  the  Orient.  No  announcement 
has  been  made  by  the  company,  but  it 
is  understood   that    the   line    will   be   in 

;ieratlon    before    the    new    atfJ>jnfr)|^.of

'Whtn  Andrew  Weir  disconHntied  the 
.Australian  Mall  service,  so  the  story 
goes,  for  a  consideration  from  the  Union 
Steamship  oom'pany  of  .- New  Zealand, 
leaving  Waterhouse  &  Co..  acting  as  his 
managerial  agents,  out  in  the  cold,  the 
Waterhoust  company  Immediately  an- 
nounced that  the  Australian  line  from 
the  Sound  would  be  continued  by  it  with 
iliartered  steamers.  It  was  planned  to 
Keep  to  tlie  monthly  sohedule,  but  it 
wa.s  said  no  steamer  was  obtainable  for 
the  present  month's  sailing  and  the 
schedule  was  disarranged  one  month. 
Evidence    of   Breach 

"As  a  further  evidence  of  the  breach 
bf'tween  the  Andrew  W'olr  company  and 
the  "^Vaterhouse  line,  the  Weir  company 
is  know^  to  be  planning  to  place  two 
sttamers  In  direct  service  from  Port- 
land to  the  Orient.  Waterhouae  &  C.>. 
lire  already  operating  a  service  from 
Portland  to  the  Orient,  via  Pu5«t  Soim'i 
port(j,  and  naturally  the  n»-,w  Weir  line 
will    be   in    opi>osltlon. 

"The  Waterhouse  company  continues 
to  operate  Weir  steamers  Ih  this  ser- 
vice as  the  vessels  werfc  under  a  five- 
year  time  charter  and  Still  have  two 
years  to  run.  It  is  said  that  after  the 
tiarter  expires  the  Walerhousb  company 
i\U  continue  to  operate  the  service  with 
chartered    steamers. 

"It  was  theWaterhouSfc  company  that 
bought  out  the  Portland-Asiatic  Steam- 
ship company  a  year  or  two  ago,  taking 
over  the  charter  contracts  held  by  'tliat 
i-ompany.  Th«  Rygja  and  Hercules  were 
in  this  service  and  are  still  in  thf  fleet 
operating  from  Portland,  Tacoma  and 
Seattle  to  the  Orient. 

•'Shipping  men  in  touch  with  the  sit- 
uation say  that  the  Nippon  Yusen  kalsha 
.service,  will  be  established  before  the 
\\'iMr  steamer.s  are  rrndy  for  the  trade."

The  steamer  Prince  John  of  the

her  last  trip.  The  work  boat  of  thot

heavy  seas  and  swept  overboard.  Many 
green  seas  swept  the  declc  of  the 
steamer  as  trtie  jvallowed  In  tue  high 
waves,  and  one  sea,  breaking  over  the 
forward  deck,  swept  axvay  the  l)oat 
from  the  forward  hatch.  Captain 
Wearmouth  said  he  had  never  seen 
such  weather  in   i  rocite  Strait.

t«»  the  Islands.  ThursCav  from' Victoria 
through  the  islands  and  on  to  Van- 
couver; Friday  and  Saturday  trips  to 
the  islands. 

There  will  naturally  be  great  irejolcing 
among  the  people  of  the  islands  at  the 
announcement  that  tho  matter  of  the 
mall  contract  has  at  last  been  settled. 
I'or  months  past  strong  committees  have 
been  at  work  endeavoring  to  secure  the 
subsidy  for  the  G.  P.  R..  but.  not  un- 
naturally, the  company  holding  the  mall 
contract  used,  every  endeavor  to  hold  the 
.same.  This  led,  so  it  is  stated,  to  the 
ctmOiHftipri  ^  .^port  that  the  board  of 
■  iCtS^II^^S^'  '  'ts  weigiit  amiinst  the 

■wishes  Of  tlic  people  of  the  islands,  and 
was  endeavoring  to  prevent  the  C.  P.  R. 
from  being  awarded  the  subsidy. 

A  Colonist  representative  yesterday 
interviewed  both  the  president,  Mr.  H. 
G  Wilson,  and  the  secretary,  Mr.  F.  El- 
worthy,  of  the  board  of  trade,  relative  to 
the  matter,  and  was  informed  that  it 
was  absolutely  untrue  to  suggest,  as 
they  were  Informed  had  been  suggested, 
that  the  board  had  at  any  time  taken 
any  attitude  antagonistic  to  the  ex- 
piessed  wishes  of  the  people  of  the  Gulf 
isliinds  In  regard  to  the  matter  of  an 
Improved  steamer  service,  and  the 
awarding  of  the  mall  contract.  'They 
mentioned  that  the  board  of  trade,  im- 
mediately after  the  accident  to  the  Iro- 
javois,  had  taken  steps  to  urge  upon  the 
eC.  P.  R.  the  desirability  of  putting  a 
steamer  on  the  rotate,  feeling  that  such 
company  was  In  ih  Obviously  better 
position  than  any  other  to  give  suich  a 
service, as  would  meet  the  ncwde  of  iiie 
Situation,  And  since  that  Initial  action, 
said  the  president  a.nd  the  secretary,  the 
board  of  trade  had  absolutely  done  noth- 
ing which  could  be  Construed  as  oppos- 
ing the^  desire  of  the  people  of  the 
iBlt:'nd8  to  see  that  the  mall  contract  was 
awarded  to  the  C  P.  R. 

board  of  trade  was  first  apprised,  by 
n)eans  of  a  letter  from  a  resident  of  the 
ii^Iands  addressed  to  a  local  firm,  that  a 
feeling  existed  among  the  people  there 
that  the  board  was  opposing  the  appli- 
cation of  the  C.  P.  R.  for  the  subsidy, 
and  prompt  steps  were  taken  to  explain 
to  the  writer  of  the  letter  wiiat  was  the 
actual  attitude  of  the  local  organization. 
r>««»\(te  this,  however,  r'^ports  continued 
to  be  circulated  among  the  people  of  the 
islands,  and  when  the  reporter  called 
upon  the  officlalK  yeeierday  they  wel- 
comed the  opportunity  to  make  this  ex- 
planation, which  they  contend  will  be 
borne  out  by  every  record  appearing  on 
ihe  books  of  the  board. 

Mr.  'Plworthy  ad'lf'd  that  on  Wednes- 
day last  he  liad  an  Interview  with  Mr. 
G.  Bullock,  of  the  Islands,  and  to  prove 
thf  bona  fides  of  the  board  In  the  matter 
offered  to  send  any  telegram  he  might 
suggest  to  Mr.  G.  H.  Barnard  at  Ottawa. 
Mr.  Bullock  accepted  tlie  offer,  and  a 
wire  was  duly  dispatched  to  Victoria's 
representative  at  the  capital.  Yester- 
day, as  already  statnd,  the  C.  P.  R.  re- 
ceived word  that  the  mail  contract  had 
been  signed.  '  ' 

The  steamer  Joan  will  run  from  Vic- 
toria every  M'onday  Tnorning,  and  call

hs-lr  results  from  too  much  washing  the 
head  than  from  any  other  catise.  If  you 
want  to  see  your  customers'  hair  grow 
In  btauty  and  color,  and  brilliance  and 
luxuriance,  stop  drenching  and  rinsing  It 
and  depend  upon  dry  .shampooing. 

"Dry  shampooing  once  a  week  will 
bring  about  wonders.  Hard  and  scaly 
scalps  become  soft  and  pliable.  Coarse, 
lifeless  and  splitting  hairs  will  take  on 
ntw  life,  become  soft  snd  glossy  and 
Ihe    natiirnl    color    will     r.>turn. 

"To  make  a  shampoo  i)Owder  mix  4 
ounces  of  orri-s  root  with  4  otinces  of 
tnerox.  ttpnnKie  a  laiiiespoonfiii  ovpp 
Ihe  head  and  brush  thoroughly  through 
th«  hair.  Don't  spare  the  brushing.  This 
trtatment  tones  up  the  hair  from  root 
to  tip,  removes  dust,  dandruff  and  ex- 
cess oil,  leaves  the  .<»calp  clean,  cool  and 
refreshed  and  the  hair  rich,  aoft  and  sil- 
ky.'

the  penM|||^SPormlng  tho  chief  por- 
tion of  the  ij'ity  thrusts  Itself  down., 
will  be  carried  along  at  tho  aame 
time.  This  will  eventually  »'Te  St. 
John  one  of  the  (flnes|  harbors  on  the 
whole  Atlantic  coast,  and  will  bring  to 
Its  whaa-ves  a  constantly  growing  traf- 
fic   all    the    year    round. 

But  there  is  another  great  reason 
for  the  enthusiastic  optimism  of  the 
citizens  In  the  assurance  of  rapid  In- 
dustrial growth.  The  Edward  Part- 
ington Ptilp  &  Paper  Co.,  in  considei-- 
ation  of  a  fi-xed  assessment  for  a  term 
of  years,  has  Just  agreed  to  spend  HflOO,- 
000  at  once  on  the  enlargement  of  the 
pulp  mill,  and  to  add  a  paper  mill  at 
a  cost  of  $500,0011.  It  l.s  expected  that 
this  company,  will  be  merged  into 
the  Consolidated  Pulp  &  Paper  Co., 
v.'hlch    has   15.000.000    rapttal. 

The  promoter  of  the  autrar  refinery, 
which  it  was  expected  would  bo  erect- 
ed at  St.  John,  has  asked  for  an  ex- 
tension of  time,  and  offered  certain 
pledges,  but  the  city  council  has  re- 
fused to  give  its  assent,  and  so  ad- 
vised the  Dominion  Government  whl-ch 
Is  Interested  in  the  proposed  site.  The 
Iron  and  brass  manufacturing  firm  of 
T.  McAvity  &  Sons  are  very  anxious  to 
get  this  site  to  assemble  their  whole 
plant  and  greatly  enlarge  their  opera- 
tions. It  Is  certain  that  the' 'site  will 
be  utilized  for  manufacturing  pur- 
poses and  construction  work  begun  this 
year. 

A  company  vv'injnw  ivame  is  not  di- 
vulged has  been  negotiating  with  the 
city  for  pix)perty  which  it  owns  ne<ir 
Fairvillo.  as  a  site  for  extensive  car 
works.  Twt^ty  acres  are  needed  and 
thP  city's  properly  l.*<  not  Ciuite  30  large 
hut  an  effort  is  being  made  to  secure 
the  necessary  addition  &t  a  reasonable 
figure  ami  gQt  the  new  industry. 

The  construction  of  a  factory  to  man- 
tifp.cture  blockite  will  be  begun  as  soon 
as  the  spring  opens,  and  a  local  firm 
of  tanners  have  askt-d  for  a  fixed  as- 
sessment on  condition  that  they  on- 
large  their  plant  this  year.  The  cea-- 
talnty  that  the  great  .harbor  works  will 
Ro  on  is  regarded  as  practically  assur- 
ing the  construction  of  a  large  cement 
works  on  a,  desirable  site  close  to  the 
city  by  English  capitalists  who  hav« 
already  secured  the  site. 

Other  Industries  are  certain  to  fol- 
low the  present  movement.  The  East 
St.  John  wonVs  will  Inolude  a  mam- 
moth dry  d-ock  and  ship  repaic  plant^ 
es  well  aa  the  great  breakwater,  wiiar- 
ves  and  dredging.  Farms  close  to  the 
new  works  are  being  divided  Into 
town,  lots  ami  are  now  on  the  market 
und  the  s'treel  railway  will  he  extend- 
ed    there    in     the    spring    and    sumi.^er.

Some  Advantages 
of  Having  This 
Company  Named 
as  Executor 
and  Trustee  in 
Your  Will 

Because  acting  in  these 
caiiacitics  is  our  business, 
therefore  wc  are  naturally 
able  to  handle  sucli  work 
more  tiuickly  and  satisfac- 
torily and  less  expensively 
than  an  individual  wlio  has 
his  private  affairs  to  aitend 
to. 

Because  it  requires  tech- 
nical knowledge  and  much 
experience  to  satisfactorily 
handle  trust  funds  and  it 
is  unreasonable  to  expect 
expert  knowledge  from 
limited  experience  in  this 
work. 

Because  the  faithful  per- 
formance (>(  the  duties  of 
tliis  company  as  executor 
and  trustee  is  guaranteed 
by  its  total  assets,  amount- 
ing to  over  $3,000,000,  as 
well  as  by  its  bond  with 
ihc  govetniihent  and  by 
government  inspection. 

Call  and  allow  us  to  tell
