One thing that the i uY.tenza ha.it accomplished w. •
the hit of forgot ten p. * and , which
quired some to cover their 1 mths when snot zing iusi.v .
of imitating Nn gart Falk an 1 covering everybody with!
ten feet, with spray. ‘
Yesterday afternoon, iol n\ ing the raising ol the ha .
Mayor Hohen met Dr. Uomq . They looked at each othc .
there wasa tickle eir eyes, a peculi 1 nn
eles around th > nos both ( rew their han le chief
both, just . teas if it had oee i rehearsed, had good suer,
is. “Oosh, but that was good." both exclaimed, also like ;
duet, the pent up exclaim.tie. of weeks.
And now don't forget '. “shop early' for i' is t.‘;
time of t!i * year wiien this ?: miliar saying comes in most
a]>propriati.

nice to hear the church hells i ingiug once again as if say

‘‘Don’t sell the property.- is the advice given to a Sew
ard man in a letter from he ? rites. This advice means f.<
the Seward man to hang ont ais business for next seasr:
promises to he a good one and Seward is coming hack inh
her own.
IN THE NAME , r HUMANITY
Another terrible menu casually is reported from
Alaska where in the past e / , . / ... of \msels, million
in property vaine. ami nu u •• *:■ - human lives have foum
a resting place in th icv \ of thos sparsely lighted
and porlv protected shores.
in the case of the Princess Sophia the loss*of life k
most appalling, making it tin most serious wreck of re
cord on the Pacific, rh 1 held fo im«
on the rocks, hut later broke m two and sank without one
survivor. In all H)-‘> are said \ > have been lost, and tin
monument over their fin: I resting nlace is THE UN
LIGHTED V \ VnURBIT.T KEEK IN UNITED STATES
WATERS.
A fairly new steel vessel of British build and regis
try. worth a million; possibly mother million in gold dust,
in addition to those precious human lives, mostly Ameri
can. many Canadians and others — all lost with not even a
trace left. And possibly it could have been avoided.
Oh, the pity of it!
Without prejudice and lacking details. With no
thought of suggestion criticism of the shin’s officers, does
not this teach a lesson? Is it not the opportune moment for
insisting that something he done to at least minimize the
i isk of such tragedies in those waters of British Columbia
