London, June 7.—The most represen­tative gathering of British newspaper­men ever held occurred on Saturday evening at the Garden Club at Shep­herd’s Bush, when 1,000 journalists „of the United Kingdom gave a banquet in honor of the 57 colonial delegates to the Imperial press congress. While the Londoners predominated, every section of the British Isles sent a dele­gate to welcome the colonial visitor», who have come to London from all center» of the Empire. ——a— ~ —-

The colonial visitors, riveting their attention on cable news and presa inter - communication, will make a strong plea for the duetton of "’.cable rates and the laying of a government cable across the Atlàntlc, as Suggester by Mr. Lemieux, the postmaster-general ofxarasda. ttonr ranking op the Untied Kingdom,toaa, ‘;aii line,” A move­ment will be started also for the es­tablishment and .the Interchange of news between the colonies and Eng­land.

Rosebery Speaks. > --—4 Lord Burnham presided at Saturday

evening’s banquet. Lord Rosebery de­livered the speech of welcome to the pressmen, and the reply was made bjf- Sir Hugh Graham, of Montreal.

In hie address. Lord Rosebery, re­ferring to the forthcoming visit to the fleet at Splthead by the delegates, characterised the present situation In Europe as ominous. There * was an absence of question» which ordinarily might be expected to lead to war. he said, yet the threatening and over powering preparations for war were unprecedented in history. He was confident pf . the power of Britain to meet any reasonable conjunction of powers, but when he saw this burst­ing out of navies he was uneasy re­garding the outcome. Lord Rosebery asked the delegates to carry the mess­age that responsibility rests on every man of the Empire, and to tell the colonies Jiow Europe Is arming and the greatness of the pressure on thW little island.

Sir H. Graham, proprietor of the Montreal Star, responding to Lord Rosebery's toast. "Our Guests,” said that the colonial press was respon­sible for the’ wave of sentiment Which Is sweeping the outlying portions of the Empire and marks an leàportant era In the attitude of the people to­wards Imperial Interests. Canada, he said, for long years had sponged or the Mother Country for protection, and was too mean to offer to pay It» share, but a change was Impending. Inspired by the pluck of New Zea­land and-Australia, which were al­ways in the van, Canada was now sending delegates to discuss the ques tlon o/ the dèience of Great Britain, If wise etatesmenshtp governed the delegates in the discussion. It meant a new and tin portant step In the safe­guarding of imperial Interests.

Yet we cannot ignore the fact that public opinion in both countries is inflamed—and when the public mind Is In a state of Inflam­mation a very trifling Incident, com­paratively, may preclplate a conflagra­tion. Under different circumstances, what would be the fresult of a Dogger Rank Incident? The mishap to the Maine gave the United States a reason­able excuse for carrying out something upon which she had set her mind—to thrash the Spaniards and drive them from the American continent.

It Is therefore' the state of mind In Great Britain and Germany, not the fact that there la no tangible cause for a quarrel, that causes apprehen­sion. Our dispatches of Saturday, In which the words of German naval men were quoted, are characterised as sen­sational. We are told they ought'to be read with a fe^ grains of salt. Yet there Is no question that they were substantially correct translations of the sentiments expressed by the speakers. And. after all, are they any pore aen- Imtional or significant than the expres­sions ot the Karl of Rosebery, quoted by the same newspaper which under­takes to read us a lesson |n editorial supervision? One of the speakers at the meeting the German, navy league, a Count of the EnUpIre, said: “England has no divine right, to dominate the ocean. Germany and other reigning powers must contest for supremacy.

Sea and no Interference With her would lie brooked." These words In substance expressed the sentiments of the meet­ing, and they were uproariously cheer- ed. -

We are told by the Colonist that Lord Rosebery in his address to an assembly of newspaper men represent­ing practically the whole of the British Empire, characterised the present situ­ation in Europe as ominous. There was an absence of questions wMch ordin­arily might be expected to lead to war. he said," yet the threatening and over­powering preparations for war were unprecedented in history. He was confident of the power of Britain to meet any reasonable conjunction of powers, but when he ?nw» this burst­ing out of navies he wan uneasy re­garding the outcome. Lord Rosebery asked the delegates to carry the mess­age that reiponstblity rests on every

of the Empire, and to tell the colonies how Europe is arming and the greatness of the pressure on this little island. ''X?X7: ’v---”

The situation In brief is that Ger­many Is determined to become all- powerful upon the water as she is all- powerful upon the land. She Is am­bitious to dominate the world In all things, regards Britain’s assumed right to control the seas as presumptu­ous and arrogant. Great Britain has of course no right to attempt to set a limit to Germany's ambitions as a T Hval power. But she distrusts the in* t- niions of her rival and 1» determin­ed to maintain a certain standard of naval predominance. The, result Is, as yet; merely a conflict which wflV test relative financial resources. But while it continues, and pending the exhaus­tion of sm or otaefr of the contestants, there will always ekigt the danger, imminent at the present time, of an untimely incident precipitating a con­flict which all the world now regards as inevitable.

We sincerely trust, however, and we believe the great majority of people In ail parts of the world will Join in the* prayer, that the present gust of pas­sim! may pass away, that" iwmm witthisu to join the

of th« Republican parti' In preferring previous to the presidential election that It was In favor of tariff reform downward! and then proceeding to revise the tariff upwards. The lead­ers of the party of course claim that there was no promise given In regard to whether the revision should be up­wards or downwards. Unfortunately, however, the speeches of all the lead­ing stumper* Including those of Pres­ident Taft, have been quoted against this contention. Of course the Sena­torial wrath Is warm against the news­papers. Ho the duty on news print has been hoisted upwards also. Just to ■hoW these, meddlefs that the best thing they can db is mind their own business. And the publishers ofAmerican newspapers thought they ________had convinced the senators that bc-^ extension cause of the old duty the paper trust was absorbing practically all the prof­its of the newspaper business.

who understand the true inwardness of It, can see more evidence of “clean gone' madness in thé editorial In question than In the actions of.the leaders of that move­ment in the OldrCountry. If these women are mad there is certainly method In their madness.

Some df them art of aristocratic famille*. Why then do they attempt the “antics" which have waroused t he righteous tmilgnetisn ^oT the editor of the Colonist?

hoolboy knows how the herons secured Magna Charts. In a later age for cen­turies the common people begged, peti­tioned, prayed to be relieved from the bondage of villainage, but the ruling classes only treated their pleadings with derision. Then the people arose la A body, armed themselves with such weap­ons as they could secure, marched to London, burned the Savoy Palace, killed a bishop or two and a lot of other digni­taries, at which point the KI*K. to save hie owh precious head, promised to drees all their grievances. This was not done. It Is true, as speedily as the King had promised, but It was done ere long, and lha liberties thus gained were direct outgrowt lie of the „ peasants’ rebellion. From those middle eges down to the pre­sent hlstdry teaches the same lesson. Even the gréât Ditfte of.

The great hindrance to progress with these works Is that the city Engineer has not accommodation for the staff necessary to prepare the grades and plan# for all the works that have been ordered, Step* will be taken shortly t" overcome this difficulty to soma axXent by enlarging the engineer’s office.

Several aldermen are In favor of let ting some p( the work by contract In order to get It done promptly. They say that even If the engineer was In posi­tion to turn out the plans there is no avallabjg labor to be obtained by the rtty. Tills matter W likely to be dWUS »ed by the coumll and streeto commit tee in the near future.___; .

Coroner’s Jury Hears Evidence as to Drowning of Young

Briggs.

After hearing all the evidence avail­able, a coronet’s Jury on Saturday afternoon arrived at the verdict that the death of AlbertT. Briggs was the result of accidental drowning. The Jurors were; Walter Walker (fore­man), Captain Edmund Parsons, Mur­

ker, W’alter Harland, Thomas McGregor and Albert J. Maynard.

Dr. Bapty described the findings of the post mhrtem examination. A bruise on the right ear. caused before death, while not sufficient to have caused death might have rendered the young man unconscious.

John Johnson, engineer of the tug Butte, told of finding the body. The wharf, he said, was In good repair, with nothing- «bout It to give rise to an accident.

Hugh Caven. engineer of the tug Beaver, said he had heard a noise a* of something falling against the tug About haW-puwt «me «m Thursday after­noon^- but titis was nothing unusual. Half an hour later he came on deck and found lying In the stern a cap which had not been there when, he had

MSHm up before. He picked tt ep fin ! remarked to the captain that It looked as If some one had fallen overboard, but the captain only laughed at" him.

Ivan Sutherland and Fred "Walker, friends of the dead lad. had seen him a few minutes before the time of bis death. His wheel appeared to be In good order.

P. Manson. who found the wheel, as told in Saturday's Times, described lis poelllon and appeaHence. -

A theory advanced was that Briggs, who was known to Wave on other oc­casions sat on his wheel at the wharf edge, with one foot on the guard rail, and shoved himself along that way, was doing the sazrie thing when hè Met his death and toppled over. Against this Is the fact that the bicycle would not have been in aiMh ahapa If-it had Just fallen . over the edge. Ode thing which seems quite certain la that the lad struck his head and was rendered unconscious when he fell, being thus unable to cry out or to save, himself by swimming.

The dramatic finish, and the fact that the victory was only gained by fl» run*. Will help u» make the contest always memorable, say» an Old Country ex­change In describing the match.

To see the simple machinery of this In­stitution In: motion—its entlrg opérât-, Ing staff Is only twenty-seven—Is to come away wondering at so practical a system for bringing the unem­ployed and w«irking opportunities to­gether on a bfisle devoid of the pau­perizing Influent of charity.

Two- large five-storied brick and stone buildings, designed to accom­modate 4.000 men and women at one time, house the exchange's various departments. There are three main dirigions—tor women and girls, tor unskilled working men and boys, and tor skilled worlcing men. The latter department is subdivided Into trades, with separate quarters tor the wood­working Industry, smiths. bakers, painters, bookbinder®, plumbers, paper- hangers. leather workers, plasterers, roofers, machinists, butchers, street employees, glaziers, lift men and print-

The exchange Is open in spring, summer and autumn from7 a. m. to 6 p. m., and In winter from8 ». m. to I p. m. In the skilled trades special hours are set apart for vari­ous industries, so that different trades may use the same quarters at different times. — - —:—, •

From the standpoint of the visitor main Interest attaches to two great halls set aside for unskilled men and hoys, and tor women nnd girls As one enters the imposing premises in the Gormannstrasse the Seal for male unemployed Is first reached. Spa- .tou», *iwh-p*U4o9*<1 and well lit. with bench seats for 1.400 and standing room tor 500 more on a gallery run-

-TTtng around all four sides. It looks like a real exchange.- or th> trading floor of a stock or grain market, with the same animated buss of guttural conversation, emanating, on the day 1 was there, from nearly * thousand throats.

Scattered here and there at regular Intervals were Sign posts labelled “House Servants.” ’Taamstaga»*'- •‘.Younger workmen.” “Elder work­men,” etc., and seated In the ■IssmtHtt- ate vicinity were men and youth* an­swering' those descriptions. Each group was subdivided by signs read­ing. “January/' “February.” or “March,” indicating the date at vtl- h the out-of-works at those particular points had taken up their Job vigil. To an observer familiar with London unemployed this throng was conspicu­ous for cleanliness, sobriety, and good humor. Here and there sat couples playing at draught». Yonder a Key­board pulled contentedly at a pipe. Across, the hall at the exchange can­teen stood a dozen fellows enjoying their midday meal — coffee with milk and sugar for Hd., a glass of beer for ted.. or a sandwich, slice of sau­sage. or portion of salad at lted- apiece. Others were smoking can­teen cigar* retailed at three a penny, those who had “dined*' were whiling their time away with newspapers and magazines furnished gratis by the exchange librarian.

A broad shouldered teamster came from the boot repairing mom, where members of the ex< hang<. beforestarting out tor Jobs, can have their footgear repaired for a halfpenny. Next door was the tailor shop, where clothes are mended and cleaned for the same price. Legal advice Is .even cheaper, for the exchange maintains a bureau where members can get consultation Rpon the law, either In working or private affairs, free of charge. The law bureau adjoins an­other splendid feature et the amas" Ing unemployed dub — a model first- aid medical and hoepltal room.

While the visitor Is losing himself In admiration of all this, messengers dash in and out. telephones buns, men and women rush out to work, others straggle In looking tor It. Inspector Steffen, head of the male division, en­ters the great hall where the unskill­ed men and boys are congregated. He raps tor silence. In his hand rustle a dozen pink slips. “Men wanted." applications sent In by employers by letter, messenger. • or telephone. He reads out': “Bumpsteln, Strajauer- strasee, .19. wants eleven piano-mov­ers for two weeks; wages. 2s. 6d. aday/’ Inspector Steffen advances to­ward the “yotinger workmen” pit. Plane-moving Is too strenuous for older men. Ti it. twenty, perhaps thirty, fellows rise from their benches eagerly holding aloft their numbered membership cards, for, other things bring equal, precedence Is given to those who have been waiting longest.

Herr Steffen makes his selections carefully. hearing employers' and would-be employee* Interests mutual­ly In mind He gives preference to the married man and those with chil­dren to support, brut they must be like­ly men for the Job, as the exchange la jealous of its reputation for supply? ing the right men for the right places. A working man or woman who gives evidence of too strong Inclination to drink or slothfulneee Is frequntly re? cognized and «fused the priritege* of membership. The ext bangs ha# done Its work when ft eende Bumfceiala hlfl eleven piano-movers. It Is for them to say. when they reach his premises, on exactly what terms they care to enter his employ. The exchange exer­cises pressure upon neither work-giver nor work-taker. If the men who have boon sent to * jn*-et«-4Mk4irmust rejoin the exchange as new­comers and pay fresh registration fees. This Is the whole modus operand! or this simple, effective. democratic, prompt. work-finding organization.From two to four hundred job» a day arc flmltf out in these abnorai times of unemployment.

The Times Nature ClubAnimal Cunning.

Cunning, both In man and In the lower animal*, may be defined as a low type of reasoning generally exer­cised for the attainment of a selfish or unworthy object, such as revenge and theft; but the universal instinct of self-preservation, which may hard­ly be described as an unworthy object, also frequently vails It forth.

An Instance of animal cunning pro­duced by the last-mentioned cause came under niy notice some years ago. A Clumber spaplel was purchased at a somewhat high figure through a news­paper advertisement. In which the dog was represented as being highly trained and perfectly efficient. It proved, however, to be nothing of the kind, lie was wild”-» fatal fault ip a spaniel, of coutw-*nd the ve-y first bird his hew master shot ho promptly ate.

White CamaseAt a recent meeting of the Victoria

Natural History society a number of Interesting specimens of flowers were examined. One of the erne was a white camass or wild hyacinth. It was pro­bably a freak, although It Is Juat pos­sible that from one of thou#* flowers a white species could be cultivated.

Pugnacious Birds.One of the members told an Incident

In connection with a visit he made to an owl's nest. He climbed the tree and was Just taking a look at the young birds when he heard a wish of feathers and p.ut up hi* arm Just In time to-re­ceive a blow from the big owl. Again he heard the same noise and the arm once more warded off the attack and then the gentleman decided rather sud­denly that he would postpone hi* .In­vestigations until some more suitable time.

It jg curious how individual birds dlf-

s port amah's family being do* lovers. Cast many commiserating glances the poor animal, so soon to meet his fate, and the remark <vae made that he seemed to know that something ten ”tn the wind.'

His master, taking down his gtmu Just as usual, and railing the dog. set out on the unpleasant errand. Their way led them across many fields, and before the first, was passed the sports­man could not help noticing that his spanTel’e <onduct war stngutarty ex emplary.

He actually retrieved the two rabbits shot, a thing he had never been known te do before.

As a rule, the river was an irresist­ible temptation to the dog^ and many a time he had been found splashing about In it when he ought to have been more profitably employed; Rut that day. even when the river was reached, no amount of coaxing or commanding could prevail on him to enter the water.

Rattlesnakes and Scorpions.The following short article written

' some time ago by J. R. Anderson and j published at that time In the Ottawa Naturalist should prove of Interest:

During a recent trlfi In the Interior of British Columbia. I fell In with an old acquaintance, Mr. E. Bullock-Web- ster, from Keremeeos, on the Rlmllka- meen River, near the southern boun­dary of the province on the mainland. This part of the country seems to be a continuation of the desert regions which extend through the adjoining Sts to* and California dow n to Mexico: the theory being bofne out bf the ex­istence of some of the plants and rep- tll peculiar to those regions, for In­stance Purshla tridents ta a» well as various members of the Artejntsla family burrowing owls, horned toads, rattlesnake*, scorpions. Ac,

Being aware of the existence of scor­pion* in the hot rocky hills In the vicin­ity of hie ranch. having ween one from there captivity some years ago at New >* estmlnster which had been kept in * glass Jar with only some gravel, and without food or water tor several months, I asked my friend If he could obtain a specimen tor me. He promised he would do so when opportnulty offer­ed; hut the season, be said, Wax past

London. June 7.—The Southern Ai In the dog's behavior, and he present-gave up all Idea of destroying him

tftat day al least. He patted hie head ai.derailed him “good dog. ' and deter- mined to give him n further and more exhaustive, trial. He never had cause

for obtaining them to the best advan­tage. He, then explained that during | the dormant season . the scorpions •hared the dens of rattlesnakes, Crotal- us luclfer (Baird and Girard) and In ! the spring time when the sun began to attain some power, the snakee come out to the mouths of their dens, in horrid colling masses, the scorplohs running over them on apparently quite friendly terms. Mr. Webster described several of these dens In the rocky defiles of the mountains of Blmtikamecn very graphically.

One. which from accounts received from Indians, seems to be the head- j quarters of all the rattlesnakes, is sit- 1 unted in an Ideal Inferno, a weird defile that would have appealed to the Imag­ination of Dore, It appears that the i Indians from superstitious motives do j net kill snakea, and frorf) the same motives do not go near their dens. Mr. i Webster, however. Induced an old Indian to conduct him to the spot, which he did, but would not go nearer than about two hundred yards. Mr. ! Webster entered the horrid place *lone. He says it Is Indescribably weird, the entrance of the den proper being partly stopped up with bunch-grass, apoÉQr- j ently carried there by the snakes, pre­sumably tor protection against cold. It was too late in the season, however, the snakes having ail left *for summer ; quarters, and all that was to be seen were some skin»- that had been shed and 4 dead snake, probably an Inter­loper, which had apparently hc*n kil­led b ythe others. Mr. Webster expres­sed the belief that the snakes belonged to different communities, and that an j Individual who attempted to force its enapjpany on a community to which It dla®not belong. eufl£re*d the penalty of death at the fangs of the members of the Invaded colony.

The bull snake (so-called). Pltyophls catentfer, a harmless variety. 1s de-* scribed as being a deadly enemy of the rattlesnake, which the former devours whole. The bull fully preserved.■Inde the advent of miners the number of rattlesnakes has sen albly decreased.

A curious account of a snake fight was described by Mr. Webster, the ; witness being Mr. Richter, a well known to him. and of whose veracity he can vouch. It appears that during a cattle hunt Mr. Richter, feeling tired, j dismounted, and fell asleep, but was awakened by a rustling noise In the j grass near him. He raised himself carefully and saw a bull snake holding on to a garter snake, a species of Eu- toehià, by the head. The tetter was making frantic efforts to get away by winding Itself about the body of the larger snpke. nearly succeeding several times, when the bull snake loosened his hold In the atempt to get the smaller snake “end on.” so as to begin the swallowing operation. At length the bull snake, apparently tired of this way of trying to capture Its prey, rear-

Do you know why we caa manufacture news and wrapping paper cheaper in British Columbia than In Eastern Canada or the. United States? The answer le plain: cheaper wood. Every ton ofnewspaper inquires approximately a coni and a half ..f Mur-foot wood in its manufacture. The Interna­tional Paper Company are now paying $10.14 per cordm— i n i. mm I, ■, .11^ -- - - — m 11 tm AX AAA '1 HIV ** ̂ —ror woon, nemmgion group —Eld, Paper Company, $11.60; Kimberley-Clark Paper Mill», $11.00; Northern Pulp and Paper Company.

Owing to the Ihcreewa teat IM1 .caretty of pulp wood, the price of newspaper has Increased from $06.66 to $some pet ton during the tat tbfte years, and In order to operate the American mIH. they were oblig­ed to Import in 1900 almost a million cords of wood from Canada, and in addition over $7.000.000 of Wood pulp. Pulp wood is now worth from W.I0 to OJtt per cord In Ontario and Quebec Owing to the fart that this company hare acquired almost 100 square miles of pulp limits at Quetslno Sound. Vancourer Island, are are therefore aeeured of a permanent tup- ply Of wood at not to ezeeed $L$0 to $00 per cord. Who can tell what the price of wood will he In East­ern Canada and the United Btates wlihln 10 years? At present we are able to manufacture news and. wrapping paper from $2.01 to M00 per ton cheaper than the Eastern mills, and Inside of 10 years we will have an advantage of $10.uv to $12.00 per ton.

In commending the stock ef this corporation to the general publie we do eo with the feeling that It is one of the rarest opportunities ever presented in Canada to eecure a high class dividend paying stock. There la no question but that It la certain to become tremendously valuable within one year from the opening ef the big plant, and we therefore advise

every cltlseh of Vancouver Island to subscribe for a -mall block, even If It la only to the extent of 160 hares. Who would not now be clad to buy stock at

the original price In the big mills of Ontario and Quebec? Inside of two years It will be much more difficult to secure stock In the present mill now un­der course of erection than It now Is to secure the •lock ot eastern mills. The time to bey the stock of any corporation la alx months before a wheel haa been turned—not alx months afterwards. Suppose you had bought a few thousand shares of Canadian Paoiflc when It was selling at 12. or Hudson s Bay . _ slock when It was being sold st a low Antre, or Gen­eral Electric when It Was peddled at 20. or Alaska Packers when It went begging a while ago at 40.

I Dally Report Furnished by tbs Victoria Jtf*teorDh*t6*t Dtptitina**. ^

1 think it Is hardly necessary for me to inform you that no such notice was at er issued from this office, nor were such words ever used by ipe at any time.

On receipt of your letter X at ossce applied to the Connaught Club to get a refutation ot such a charge, and to­day I have a letter from the secretary of the club, of which I enclose a copy.I also enclose a copy of the Connaught Club Weekly Record*. Issued on April 3rd. some two week* after «y lecture la this a short sketch ot the lecture is given on the last page, but on the firet page, under the heading “Editorial ChaV the objectionable words referred to do appear, but not. as mine nor as coming from this office, but as the edi­tor's own special remarks. This Record I have not seen until to-day. nor was It ever issued from this office.

I may add that In roy lecture at the dub on the IStt^ March, which was practically the same as one I had de­livered at Chelmsford, appears the fol­lowing words referring to the fruit

mt* that was .be­ing exhibited here:

I have saw that the fruit sent was not mainly to try and find a market for it*-gale, as such a new market is not at present required, for the whole product Is rapidly sold to the other provinces of Canada—the great wheat growing countries which In a few years’ time will grow more than suf- ttrient wheat than the" Mother Country can mss. In addition to the require­ments of the provinces."

And further, on the Nth April I re­ceived a letter from the mayor of Win­nipeg. copy of which I enclose. It will be seen by this that about the time I was charged by the Winnipeg Fi Press with running down the prairie provinces. I was taking the trouble to inform the mayor of Winnipeg and ask for a denial of shameful statements that appeared in Reynold s paper berg about that cRy. -------------------------

I may further add that I have many times advised young men who tlcularly vttsh to tske up wheat farm­ing to go to one of the prairie provin­ce*. üHi

In summing up I may elate that the objectionable words referred to were not mine, that no nolle* with those words was ever Issued nor seen in this

--------------------- eww—

'With the new fire brigade apparatus ordered, by the city the fire department will be first class In every particular and a credit to the city.” say* Fire Chief Davis in bis first monthly report to the fire wardens. The chief intends to make a report on tbs’ work of the department and Its condition every month, with such recommendations as he thinks timely.

Chief Darts states that nothing Is being left undone to add to the effi­ciency of the brigade. Of the old members of the force six have left, their resignations having been put in some time ago. These were Assistant Chief McDowail, Drivers J. Rhode, H. Lindsay and J. McBride, and Firemen C. Luscombe and J. Davis. Assistant Chief Mc Dowell's position ha* beea flll- td by the promotion of Capt. Stewart of headquarters, and the captaincy made vacant will be filled later. The positions of the other retiring men will be filled by the transfer of W. Henry from No. 1 hall to No. 2, and of B. Pres­ton from headquartel-s to No. Î hall. 7. Beech, relief driver, has been transfer­red to headquarters, and R. Murrain appointed as driver at No. Î.

During May a total of nineteen alarms were responded to, of which thirteen were box alarms and «1* tele

e. The fire loss amounted to $7W on buildings, on which the Insurance

as $18,800. and to I» on contente, which were Insured for I860. The hum ber of feet of fire hose laid at flrei totalled 6.200. and the number of gallons of chemical used was 166. Dur lng the month Chief Davie inspects* twenty-one building*. Issued 88 notices and 118 permit*

The chief intends later on to take de­tachments of the men with him on his inspection* of buildings. In order that they may become familiar with the In teriors of all the business blocks.

Vancouver. June 6. —Comm taeloner Coombs of the Salvation Amy, and Major Morrison, head of the local sta­tion ot the arn\y, returned recently from the north, where they had been on a tour of inspection of the posts among the Indians along the fekeena river..

la the course of their tour the two ofBceiw visited all the spots at which the army Is working along the Skeena, their Journey taking them from Prince Rupert to «en Vowell, some five miles above tlaaetton. They were highly pleased with what they saw of the work of the Indian Salvationists. At Andtmnul and G lea Vowell there are large vWseue h» whic h all the In­dians belong to the galva^on 4*rny These two villages aie _ among the moat prosperous of those on the Skeena. At Glen Voweti a. eawaaUI was recently established under the a plow of the army to give work to the Indian* there, and * this Major Morri­son reports Is being run In an entirely satisfactorv manner.
