What Premier McBrlde said about the duty of the Dominion, arid parti- cularly British Columbia, in respect to the protection of the empire so aroused his hearers that they stood 'as one man and sang 'at the top of their voices "The Maple Leaf For- ever" and "Rule, Britannia." The scene in the brilliantly lighted and beautifully decorated hall, with the hundreds of enthusiastic political re- presentatives at the banquet tables be- low and the enthused women in the gallery above, was a memorable :)ne.

"Does It ever occur to you that the treasure which is at stake in the vast commercial operations i^ this pro- vince is a sacred trust with ua7" asked the premier as he replied to the toast to British. Columbia, proposed by Mayor Robinson, of Kamloops.

"Do you think of how little protec- tion you are giving these Industrial projects, not even .the protection which the ordinary policeman gives In tiis round? The resources of this province are lliimltable, and we have told Ibe world so. It may be that there are those who are envious and might like to seize some of this natural wealth. Across the broad Pacific are wonderful peoples, and perhaps In another decade the forces of China and Japan may be mar- shalled together in a naval and mili- t.Try armament to threaten our pos- sessions in this part of the globe. Did we permit our wealth to go unpro- tected in this way we would not de- serve to enjoy it. If I can not appea'. on national grounds, I can surely speak to you on a commercial basis. Let us insure our property. Let us shortly be able to lay claim to a refen- lar Canadian army and Canadian navy, proprrly equipped for defence. Egqulmalt I-ana refenoag

"Permit me to ask the fer^eral mem- bers to take up this questTon when they get back to Ottawa. On every hand I hear complaint that every dol- lar now given to the volunteers is grudged to them. In Victoria I know that there is said to be scarcely enough of a regular force decently to take care of the buildings, where tbt-re nuphl to he a fair representation of the permanent military of Canada.

"This is a serious business. If there Is not enough money in the Dominion estimates to take care of this situa- Mon and to give us a decent rle-fence force, I would ask that the estimate.^ for the purpose be doubled or trebled.

"Canada cannot do too miK-h to sr- sist In the naval programme of the empire to please British Columbia. If tomorrow we were thrown into .ieopardy. where would we turn to he consoled? To the motherland. We are comfortable here now. \A'e know Continued on FiMto 2. Col. 3.

Investment of Adrianople Re- ported to Have Been Begun by Bulgarian Army, Which Is Pressing Its Advantage

LOSS AT KIRK-KIUSSEH BELIEVED VERY GREAT

News of the Fighting of Last „Few Days Indicates That the Struggle Was a Very Severe One at All Points

SOFIA, Oct. 26. — The Bulgarian troops are reported to have began a bombardment of Adrianople. A portion of the town is said to be burning.

VIENNA, Oct. 26. — Newspapor.s here publish reports that the Bulgarians are in possession of Adrianople railway station and have repulsed anothe-- Turk- ish attempt at a sortie on the city. They add that fresh Bulgarian columns have arrived and are now completing the in- vestment of Adrianople.

LONDON. Oct. 25.— There :'w|ii|^S|- reports of fighting today along ttife'flrie from Klrk-KlUsseh to Adrianople. The full extent of the Turkish losses at KIrk-KlllBseh is still unknown, but It Is almost certain that the bulk of the garrison there effected a retreat from the town before it fell into the hands of the Bulgarians.

The early capture of Klrk-Kllisseh Was a great .surprise even to the Bul- garian staff officers and their allies, and the swift progress of the war was unexpected by Europe generally. It has only been a few days since Turkey declared war, and yet events have marched to the point where the possi- bility of intervention hy the powers al- ready is talked of.

A dissertation on what might aptly be t'ermed the higher Imperialism was delivered by the Right. Rev. Dr. W. B. Carpenter yesterday afternoon at the luncheon tendered him In the .Mexandra Club by the Women's Canadian Club.

The speaker dwelt upon the subjct of Imperial permanence, and indicated his belief In the valMlty of Ibe theory as against that of Inevitable decay; he also referred to the remarkable speech of Lord Roberts at Manchester, and, without Involving himself In tli'» poli- tical maelstrom, made several pofntcd references as to the character of the men whom the famous field marshal wanted to respond to his call. In ef- fect his speech was a plea for the in- fusion of a larger measure of spiritual atmosphere In tbe business of empire building, contending that no nation could hope to outlast the centuries un- less its character, as represented by Its people, was sunk deeper than the surface growth of material gain.

Mrs. Jenkins, president of the club, occupied the chair. The seating ac- commodation provided for a/bout a hun- dred and fifty and it was taxed to the full, many gentlemen being in attend- ance.

After offering his thanks for and ap- preciation of the invitation of the club, Bishop Carpenter said he was particu- larly gratified at being in Victoria be- cause it fulfilled what had been one of the dreams of his life; and he now was In a position to acknowledge the truth of the adage that "they little know of England who only ilfinglaind know."

LONDON, Oct. 25. — The correspond- ent of The Daily Mail has obtained an interview with Prinoo Charles Max I.ilch'nowsky, the newly appointed Ger- man ambassador to Great Britain. The prince, in speaking of the much- discussed status of Anglo-German re- lations, says:

"I am not going to London with anything in the nature of a pro- gramme. 1 have no policy except to establish the warmest possible mutual relationship between the governments and \\(t peoples so as to lay founda- tions strong enough to meet any emer- gency in the spirit of good- will and tolerance."

The new ambassador said that he did not know whetiier a hard and fast naval agreement between Great Britain and Germany was practicable, but if It were it would ley the spectre which is chiefly responsible for the Anglo-German tension.

"Wo do not cherish the slightest desire or intention of disputing Great Britain's mastery of th<e seas," said the prince. "A supreme fleet is, as the Britons claim, a Ufa and death ques- tion with them. They are supremo now, and no reeponsible person I'n Ger- many dreams of disturbing the pre- eminence, but It must not be forgotten that a powerful fleet is aisc a vital ne- cessity to us. England must not read hostility into the fact when we now and then lay down a Dreadnought.

Appreciation for Prompt Fed- eral Action in Providing Pub- lic Works to Equip Piovince for Increasing Trade

REVELSTOKE. B. C, Oct 25.— The annual convention of the B. C. Con- servative Association came to an end tills afternoon. It had been expected that the day's session would be a lona: one owing to the numerous resolutions on which discussion was expected. No better indication of the harmony exist- ing in the organization and the entire confidence that Is reposed in the gov- ernment administration both at Victor- la and Ottawa was evident than the entire absence of discussion, which was indicative of even the semblance of dlscqrd. Some of the resolutions were amended on the floor but the amendments were merely the change of a word or two and had no bearing on the subject matter. The convention and Its accompanying business are regarded us having been of inestimable value in cementing into still stronger bonds the geographically widely separated Con- servative organisations.

The morning session opened at 10 o'clock. Several delegates presented some amendments to the constitution of the association. These were present- ed and carried, the Intention of the changes being to facilitate the carry- ing on of the business of future con- ventions by the omission of certain Continued on Pago 17, Col. 2.

Conttaiaed from r«C9 ti

In Thraoe. Is the stniffKle between the Servians and Turks in' the Kumanova reiiton. Constantinople at last admits thie SQccess -of'the Serylan army.

It Is reiwrted that the Turkish Rarrison at Soutart has retired- to the! heights of SSadrlana. south of the towtu This la Interpreted to mean a preparation to evacuate Scutari. The Greeks are continuing their northward march and today occupied Kossanl, alMut la mtlea northwest of the town of Bervia.

iraa of nvk-Koisseii

The acobunts of the fall Of K1*k> Klltsseh received admit thai the Turks fought doggedly, repeatedly repulsing the Bulgarians, who, however, always return,e4 to the attack. The reports say that the Bulgarians displayed praise- worthy endurance in the hand«to-hand fighting In., the vineyards to the north of towiii wiilch began at dawn of Wed* nesday night's attack by tlM artillery which had set fire to the town.

It Is now stated that it wad Ahmed, a son' of Mahomud Muhktarf Pasha,. co:i:iib«nder of tiie l^urkish forces at KlrkrKilisaeh. and: not a son of iOhaci Utikhtar Pashai the gran^ vlsler, who was captured. It Is also stated that the Tiirks.fled south and east, pursued by th> Bulgarians, fighting rearguard ac- tlonini as far as Visa on the east coast, and Babenski on the eovftft.

The Turkish toseei were over i,(>W kllkni and Cf,000 taken prisoners. The prlsoTaers gave the .Impression that . the fpitreSB. of Klrk-KiUisseh 'was on short ratlonK.

The Dally Telegraph's Constantinople correspondent, wrltlns under date of October 20, describes the tran.><port dif- ficulties which liave re.<iuUed, he says. In the anni' in Thrace bijlng .short of all necessities anil wltliout wlilch, he declares. It Is Impossible to c.oitimcnco a forward movement on a large scale. He estimates that It will 'bo a fort- nlRht before the commlsariat will permit the army In Thrace to take the offensive.

The Balkan Alliance

The league o'f the Balkan states Is based on a formal written alliance, according to a dispatch from VIenny. M'hen this Is made piil>llc, It is jaid. It will reveal the lorrltorial alms of tho Balknn nations. The secret

treaty defines tho zones of Influence of the rpspecti\"e countries In Albania and Macedonia, and provides for n combination tariff and postal union of the Balkan nations.

The King of Qreeoe, according to

Turkish troops are retiring Southward followed by the Servians, who are press- ing their pursuit without intermission.

The entry, of Pritlna by the Servian advanca- «uard was preceded by. deapeCr Ojte fighting at Teresh Pash'a and other positions around the town.

ThUs process of timing and aiming l.«i typical of the cohtvol of life throughout.

"The manner and method whereby life obtains this control wc" do not as yet know, but those who say that life cannot guldq material processes, unless life itself Is not a form of energy (which is false — man is not a form of energy, and those w-ho hol-d that life cannot act at all unlrs."! enerpry Is at Its disposal (which is certainly true) for- get the spontaneous activity of com- plex prganlzfHl molecules, and forget the disintegration manifested by ra- dio-activity.

Complaint has recently been made to the Victoria Sfoard of Trade In an In- direot manner against the alleged re* BtrictlonB imposed by this countrjr npoa American touxlstu trav«ling In their motor cars, and not unnaturally, being couversant with the Jtrevailipg condi- tions, the board Is at a loss to under- stand the difficulty. Prom several sources of late statements to the sams ef^ct have filtered Into the office of the board of 'trade, never .with any defl- nlte attachment, but always reflecting the same aggrieved insinuation.

How much easier the passport Into Canada could be made, by the gov.ern- ment for the American ttiotor tourist the board of trade is at a loss to under- stand, unless it was decided to hand the country over carte blanche to them. Permits, limited or extended, according to the desires of the visitor, are to be had for the asking.

It Is three years since the board of trade of this city responded to the clamoring Amprlr^n mnfnr tourists' Plea

that somcthini? should be done to faclli- tat« their peregrinations through this part of the country; they approached the government on the subject and after an exchange of communteatttm* the ar- rangement which at present exists was decided upon, and the act amended so as to Incorporate the alteration. That alteration, as everybody who owns a motor ear knows, renders Canada abso- lutely free to the American tourist, the restrictions being merely nominal.

System of Vemitla Under the present system of admis- sion there are two kinds of permits issued, the first being for tourists who intend tu mak'e-a brief stay, not more than seven days, the numeral prescrib- ing the period Of the permit's validity: and the second feeing valid for six months. In the cUso of the second, or ext-ended permit* It is neeeweary for the tourist, on entering the country, to de- posit the sum of |2& In cash and a bond to the value of the car, both ot which are returnied to htm on leaving within the time limit Of six months. Of cot)rae it is possible to liave t;h« alx months split up into sections so as to accommodate the convenience of tour- ists, and as a matter of fact this form of permit is largely taken advantage of. Dijii'lng %i\e past summier there have been a tremendous nunnber of American tourists visiting British Columbi«^ and eepecially Vancouver Island, In this way, and not until now has any com- plaint against the isystenl been offered. The Improvement of the Island roads, I which has been carried on all year by the public works department of the provincial g{»vernment^ the extension of existing roads and' the creation of al- together new ones, hca opened lip a vista of sight-seeing poflBltilltttea wlij^h the leiaared ^tnei^o^" seised open witli avidity «ilkd<^ enthoslasm,

•tmmo Wii puwutm In discussing the situation with the secretftt'y of the board of trade, he re- quested that if anyone could suggest an Improvemeat or & reasonable facilita- tion of the existing procedure In con- nebtidn with this form of traffic; he would be only too gTad to place It ibe- fore the council of the board, to see If any action could be brought to bear upon it He also ppirited odi. thAt tbe re- strlctiOfKa referred to applied only to tdurhits. Pot the manitfaotur^rs, ofr course.'therc is an entirely different type of haasard to negotiate before entering Canada to compete with the home pro- duct. He pointed out to3. that even r<>sldent8 of tills city or country could not take advantage of _ the system by going over t6 the United States and purchasing a cheap crtr there, and then returning honu:,. .Arnl, by._JUli.__8arae token, sample <5|»)i.;ip(mufacturcd In the United States ijliiljil;! come under the operation of this plan.

"With the road construction on the Island proceeding apace, the next season promises to break all records In re- Bpect to the number of tourists visit- Ins: thlM part of the country, and It Is to be expected that the number of carf? traversing the Island highways will show a corresponding increase. Thl.«i sort of traffic Is welcomed, and coiiso- auently the board of tr.ade of Vlctorlii Is concerned to know how, If posslblo, It rr\n be facilitated.

It Is Just a year since the Nanaimo post of native sons Installed a register book In the old historic Bastion, and durinif that period no less than olfvon hundred visitors have reglsterof; t .sir names and atldrossrw. As might bt rx- Ijoctcd, the hook contains tlie names of persons in every walk In ll.fe unri from nlmoat every country under the sun. nnrt 1.x a moat Interestlrig hook to peruse.

B. C." flag then unfurled to the breeze. It wa.t built h.v Leon I<ahlne and .lean Ba- tiste Fortler, who, with as.slstanls, had been employed upoti similar structures at Fort Victoria and P'ort Rupert.

For driving or motoring—as for a hundred other outdoor enjoy- ments— you will be glad of your Pen- Angle Sweater Cteat on windy days and chilly evenings. For, though they feel so fleecy to the touch and set so lightly on the body, they are warmth-giving indeed. Knit by the Pen- Angle process, from wools of the choicest; these useful garments possess a smartness and style not known to the usual knit coat. And they retain their shapely lines, because they are carefully shaped to fit snug to the figure. That shape stays in them because it is knit into them— the Pen-Angle way.

The Conservative Convention at Rev- elatoke was an unqualifled success. Not only was It attended by a line repre- sentative body of delegates, but the tone of the 8<^thering was excellent and the speeches were of exceptional in- terest and value. This could hardly be otherwise, for the record of the party In this province is one that will bear the closest examination. Oreat thlnen have been accomplished. We have had

the Internal dovolopment of Canada the shortest route to the coming greatest of the world's markets, the fine region on the Mainland which the proposed railway would develop. It was after consideration of these things that Sir Sandford spoke of the time when the construction of the all-rail connection "would be indlspensablo at whatever cost."

MTiat he believed to be conditions a.s they existed thun has been demonstrated by time to have been an inadctiuate con- ception. Tho most extravagant, idea of thu natural wealth of this Island held by any one forty years ago was far be- low what we know these resources are. The most exalted mq^otftUon* ot tbe future of the Pratriei country then Bwm paltry when compared with what we know about them now. The estimate of the value of the Ifiaihiand of British Columbia then entertained was not In keeping with what we know about it now. The potentialities of the Oriental market as they then appeared were as nothing compared with what we now know they are. The Importance of time- saving in transportation Is ten-fold greater In 1912 than it was In 1873. If Sir Sandford and Mr. Smith had reason with them then, those who advocate the connection now have Immensely greater reason for so doing. And upon the top of the vastly strengthened case, .ccmea the Canal, now nearing comple- tion, which is an argument in itself.

Our easfirn friends make a mistake If they think the agitation for the desired connection is the outcome of the ap-

clasff representatives of tlielr great and pi'osperous country tbut they are en- titled to a hearty welcome from all cIusifCB of our citizens. It Is, of course, a little late In the season to make the witnessing of a cricket match as en- joyable as in summer, but notwIthHlund- ing this fact, we hope that tho cl< i k of '^ire Weather will bo kind and that the citizens of Victoria anil vicinity will turn out In large numbers to welcome the visitors and to see what is sure to be an excellent exhibition of the nation- al game of the Knglishman, no matter where he may be located.

A TAZiUABIiE ASSSESS.

a progressive buslness-Uke administra- tion, and a series of performances that niore than Justified the promises made

^i>X -the Premier and those who have acted with blm during his long term of ofUca.

The nature of the criticisms against the administration afford elotiuent tes- timony to the success of its policy. That criticism never rises above the level of personal abuse. No matter what the question may be in connee- iion with which the name of th^ Pre- mier or of any of his associates arises, it is made the occasion for miserable i insinuations or gross attacks. We should not like to claim that the ad-

, ministration has presented a flawless policy a.nd an executive reoord that lias been free from errors. This nevn- could and probably never can be claim id In regard to any ministry: but the op- ponents of the government have nevei^ been able to point out any auph lapses and have endeavored to supply the lack of grounds of attack \njr ftouring out a steady stream of «^uae.

That such tacft«b Have Utterly failed to weaken th^ hold whicli the foyern* , ment has iipoil the «on1ldenoe of ttie i>eople of British Columbia is abund- antly established by; the very great tuccess of the late Convention. Sir liichard McBride and his bolleaguea were never so strongly entrenched in the esteem and confidence of the pe»- 1>1« of the province as they are today.

proaciiing conipictun or tne uaHal, THttt Important event is only an additional argument why the work ought not to be delayed.

The addreas of Dr. Carpenter ^a^t the luncheon glvan^bK -tba Wom«a'«.Caaa>.. dlan Club yesterday, was replete ,with Interest and thought. It left a valu- able lesson in the minds of thos« who listened to it. The speaker dealt chiefly with things that we hayc grown ac- customed to consider old-fashioned; but it Is a good thing, it Is a most ex- cellent thing, -to have some one, who will get us down out of tho big heights of so-called progress and the clouds of intense activity, and remind us of the basal facts of life. Perhaps there Is nothing that we need more as a people today than to have the plain and simple truth plainly and simply told. — ThfSB ATe days of "isms" and "lats,"

The announcement which we niako VA» mo.rnlng that a fl.oOO.OOO building ' 1« to be erected on the burned area bounded by Oovernment. View ■ and

The credit for IMo sueoeasful issue of the negotiations whereby this desirable rt-sult has been brought about belong very largely to Sir. Thomas Hooper. This gentleman lias been in gHglftlini.Tar some time past and has only Just r«ttllH»- eU to the city. During his absence he has worked indefatlgably in bringing the arrangements to a head and the citi- zens generally will congratulate hliti on having been Instrumental In Interesting so much capital in the future of Vic- toria.

SETUOTTB ITABBOWB

It has been suggested by some eastern people that w.j should postpone any agi- tation for all-rail connection with the Mainland until things have further de- veloped. We are asked to wait and see if the effect of the Panama Canal is going to be what Is anticipated before wr ask for a new outlet to the sea and a new line of communication between thl.9 great Island and tho Mainland. This poBltlon has not been taken by anyone in a position of authority, but in talking the subject over with people frorfi tho pastern provinces, it l.i not Infrequently atlvanced. If the desirability cf the IHfiposed connection depended upon the utility of the Canal, there might bo something In the argument; but the no- cc.s.'ilty of all-rail conne<;tlon wa.s recog- nlr.ed by competent authorities long bo- fi.re tho cutting of the Isthmus was broiiKht within the range of possibility. Itiileetl, in Us arguments for the rail- way. The Colonist has laid only very Mjry little stress upon the possible canal trade.

When, nearly forty years ago, those two great engineers. Sir Sandford Flem- InK and Marcua .Smith, declared the con- nection between the Island and the Mainland to be something that would become necessary, they were not think- ing about an isthmian canal. What they had In mind were the great ad- vantage* to Canada of an all-rail route to Jthe true ocean seaboard of the Dom-- Inlon, fhc great resources of Vancouver Island and the pari they would play in

Whatever divergent views may be held Of Lord Roberts' Manchester speech there is a very large section of people throughout the British Dominions who will regard It in the nature of an .in- spiration. It has no parallel in recent years, and even If, as we hope, tho grav- ity of the situation has been overdrawn, the utterances of such an eminent mili- tary authority cannot fall to produce a profound Impression. In preaching the gospel of increasing the margin of safety he is^merely voicing the views held by all the statesmen in 'the empire. He would have Bl^Iti^lu*s naval ppwer su- preme in all the 'seas Upon which her territory fringes. He would have her trade routes 'protected. Above all he would have her military powor strength- ened by means of compulabry service, so that on land, as well as on sea, she may became the potent factor in inter- national relations. It is a tremendous ideal upon which he has set his heart.

Lord Roberta has given over half a century of his life to the service of his country. Ho has won the highest miU- tftfy rewards tliat a grateful nation haa had in Its power to beatow. His skill as a general atad his knowledge of pres- ent day warfare are probably unrivalled. For these reasons, and. in addition, be- cause the field inarahal is a keen stu- dent of political oonditions in Europe, very great importance must be attached to hia opinions. In speaking as ho has, love of hia country and a desire to make her invincible were the motlvoa at work^ The message whieii he baa delivered In telling tho people of Great Britain to "Aoquit yourselves like ihon" sounds very, much llkO an eeho of Nelson's sig- nal at Trafalgar.

Wo In Canada share the heritage of naval and military siory which has been handed down througit generations of BrltiaU blttod. The freedom and proa- pority that arc ours today are dependent upon predominant power on sea, stnd; perbfttM, tool op^laiid. To ua, therefore, Lord Boberts*' message la a very real oho, for ais yet our share In bearing the burden of defence has not ijcen very gr^at. Compulsory national servlpe la a long way off, and It Is to be hop«<l :^ill never be necessary in this country, but there Is much tJiat can be done. Within the next few months Mr. Borden will bring dov.-n his naval policy and wc are certain It will meet with the support of all scK-rospcctlng Canadians who realize their national obligations. To these we say, no matter what their political in- clinations may be, that they would do well to study the speech delivered by Lord Roberts, and, at all events, to think over the lessons from history that Jt teaches.

OTJB AUSTRAIilAN VISITOKS

Ists are people who advocate Isnvs, and as a rule they rarely tell us w<hat their particular Ism means or what it requires from those who embrice 11. These things change as the fash'.on In clothes change; but certain fundamen- tal things remain and always will re- main. It was with the latter that the reverend guest of the Club dealt, and In 80 doing he chose an ^ziceedlng time- ly theme.

oojaantttox aomaunoiVT.

The Australian cricket team, which Is now in Victoria- deserves, and will doubtless receive, a hearty welcome from the people of this city. Not only, arc tiiey export exponents of tho gootf old English game, but they are the re- presentatives of that great sister com- monwealth, with which Canada is de- veloping such Important commercial and persotml relations.

It Is fitting that their last match of their present tour should be played in Victoria, the la'st port of call In the British Empire between the northern and the southern hemispheres. The mere fact that the Australians have stayed off here to play a match with the cricketers of British Columbia, will in Itself, be a first class advertisement for the Canadian route to and from the Southern continrat. Many a lover of cricket In Sydney, Melbourne or Ade- laide will have It Impressed upon him that there Is a Victoria other than the state of the Australian commonwealth, and the lesson In geography cannot fall to have effect in drawing the at- tentloii of travellers to the attractive- ness of the Canadian route.

Apart from this material aspect of the ;yl8it, the Australians are such (iiat

Is It quite certain that the commls- .slon form of government for munici- palities is a step in the line of pro- gress? It may happen that better re- sults may be obtained by It in certain eases, but Is it not true that' the old- fashioned plan of a mayor and alder- men is not more In keeping with the spirit of representative instltutlona. If It be said that the government of a, municipality is simply a business prop' osltion, and that therefore the prin- ciple of representation ought not to be considered as necessarily applicable to it. wc do not know that we should take a negative position, but In propor- tion as the powers of commissioners are enlarged and thejr terms of oBlcc are extended, tho control of the peo- ple is reduced. This may be wise, but It Is hardly in line with the species of legislation that has been hitherto rec- ognized as progressive. When we de- mand government by commission, are we not In point of fact confessing that government by tho peoplO throutrh a representative body sUch as an aider- manic board is, has proved a fallureT Failure of popular government la hot usually recognized as a algn of pro- gress.

But Uo aystemvof municipal or any other sort of government haa been or ever will be devised that is any bet- ter than the men who administer it. Such failures aa. havo be«n wltneased In municipal affairs are primarily duo to the lack of intelilfrent Intereat taken it) such atfairci by the peoplo at large. It itiay be aald that, if you pay men good aalarlea kndi entrust them with ;]arge poWQra. inore care wilt he exer- oised by the pinl^ie In aeloetftiff them.

But WB ao'-noftegi ■anything nice -gs certain on ^hat point as we would like to be. Every experiment is not a step In progress. The old things are not necessarily bad because they have been used badly in some cases.

And now the statement comes from Germany that synthetic milk has been produced. Some of us have been .sus- pecting It all along.

The allies In the Balkans have a hand of four kings. That looks pretty strong, but you never can tell where the Joker happens to be.

Conan Doyle has declared In favor of Home Rule. Now will he kindly give us the views of Mn Sherlock Holmes end 7)r. Wat."ion on this interesting topic?

The war news as far as received l.<« only of a preliminary nature. When the strength of the Turkish army g^ets to the front there may bo a story of n very different kind to tell.

The death recently occurred at St. .lohn of Mr. George • Robertson. It

would be difflcult to discover anywhere In Canada a clliy.en who exhibited a nner .-jpirlt than h'- In public matters. He worked witli un« sampled diligence to promote the welfare of tho city, and It Is somowhrit of a coincidence that he lived to see the InauKuratlnn of th« Kreat work to which his efforts were chiefly devoted. Ills one am!)ltlon was to see St. John provldc<l with a dry- dock of tho bosr. typo, and after long years of endeavor that has been secured. The late Mr. Robertson's experience Is an Incentive to those who undertake the promotion of great uudertakingp.

Dwelling Outted — By the narrowest of margins, Mr.-^. F. 11. Clayton and a number of roomers at her boarding house, corner of Ksiiulnialt road and Canteen road, oppo.'iite the naval canteen Krounda, escaped with tlielr lives yes- terday morning about 2 o'clock, wlien they were awakened to find the prem- ises ablaze from the ground to the rqof.

Kot a line of hose into service, but the build- ing was completely gutted before any ji\JcceBsfnl attempt to quell the flames could be made. Only the piano was saved. Tho heat cracked the windows In the front of the residence occupied by Mrs. .lones nearby, and embers were carried by the heavy wind across the can- teen grounds and to the roof of the buildings there. It was a fortunate cir- cumstance for owners of nearby struc- tures that the wind was blowing from th*> quarter It was. The reflection alarmed a resident of the city living near the Royal .Tubilee Hospital. He telephoned In an alarm stating that the fire appeared to be near the corner of Pandora avenue and Richmond road. The department from halls No. 3 and 7 and Fire Chief Davis responded, but no signs of any blaze In the quarter Indicated could be found. ,Tn tbe meantime the real flro In Ksqulmalt had died down ■ nd Us reflection could not be seen. Mrs. Clayton's loss is placed at about |4600 or 15000, with insurance of 13000. The cause of the fire is a mystery. No fires were alight when the Inmates retired. When ^wakened by the smoke the oc- cupants found the rear pnrtioi; of the

THE REAL HEINTZMANf PIANO IS MADE BY HEINTZMAN & CO., LTD.

A majority of manufacturers and dealers claim their pianos to be "exactly like HEINTZMAN." Such a claim is an insult to the prospective purchasers intelligence, although it is a great compliment to the HEINTZMAN factory.

There is but ONE "HEINTZMAN" piano, and that one is made by Heintz- man & Co., Limited. If there was a piano as good or better than this to be bought in Canada, we should be selling it — as it is, we are happy to be selling the best. :

To substantiate our claim on behalf of the only HEINTZMAN piano made, wc very respectfully request you to make comparisons before you buy.

MATTERS OF rv10?.^;nNT IN WOMEN'S REA: W

— !■ "1

i

Unaecesaary Suffor.<a|f There arc still a great many women who believe that children irtust some time in their Uvea contract what are usually spoUen of as the diseases of ohlldhood. They take llttlo trouble to lire\'ent their own children from com- Ini? In contact with their friends or relatives who may have whooplnff cough, measles or mumps. Even scarlet fever and diphtheria are not suurded against is they should be. The old Idea that such sicknessea are visitations of providence has not yet jjrlfOlly disappeared. If such , mothers careless in guardlne: their own children fronrj danger, they can scarfc*- ly be expected to.. he solicitous about Ube health of other people'ia Ilttl« ones. It la sQch a«>tibey who. are roapanalblo for epldemtca ' A woman of this kind would have no qualms of consclcpce about sendlns a pupil who had been Buffering from a mild attack of scar* let fever back to school before the danger of infection was over. If there was a case of measles In the house she would allow other members of the family to play on the street, to ride on the cars or even to go to school.

It may be said the health officers should prevent this. But It Is only In severe cases of illness that such mothers call In a doctor. There are few cities where carelessness and dls-

rcgara of the nghiB or ftinera' are not

responsible for epidemics which cause much expepse and great grief. For the information of all who have the care of children Dr. AVoods Hutch- inson has stated -in very plain words the horrible results that may follow' such perversity. In a book entltU><l . "We and Our Children." In^Bj^jllelEi 'or the use^ of parents, he 8ayv'*t'-'^«r ",\ .

"It is reailjr '«ur|n«^' IftMv''«ll;««B a share -at -A so<^«i^ ^ l!l«i}ca«3r ' and backwardness 'In chU'dr'en Is ' due - to a perfectly prevenClMe ' group of causes, namely— tii{^ acuto ' in<^eciiou.? dlseaaesL Exceedingly few children, for instanoe, a^e bom deaf and dumb, or with dd^ive fi^||h.t«i aM.v^y few are eItber'i„'<yriPlWfi<l ' fl^V deformed.

If Dr. Woods Hutchinson 1.x rl>rht In his estimate of the grave consequences of these diseases, mothers may well try, not only to guard their own chil- dren from them, but take care that they themselves are not instrumental In causing their sprcfld. Whflt the strlcte.xt sanitary regiilatlnns and the most rigid Inspection cannot accomplish would be brought about by the deter- mination of the mothers of a comnnin- Ity to do their duty, not only by their own cblblren. but by those of their neighbors.

Hospital B7-Iaw

The city council has decided to sub- mit. In the near future, a. by-law to the people of Victoria for the purpose of raining funds for a new hospital. It Is to be hopeil that every ratepayer Will Blvt this matter earnest ronHlderatl'>u. AVe were all startled some months ago to learn that the aeeommodatlon at the public hospital was Insufficient and Its equipment Inadequate. Kach one knows that the hospital built twenty-three years ago must be too stnall now. But they forget that such n building cannot go tjp In a night like Aladdin's palace. The nurses and every one employed at the hospital find tbeir work hampered The patients receive every care and at- t«ntton possible, and It .is greatly to 'tne credit of the staff that there has been ■o little reason for complaint. It is perfectly true that taxes are already very heavy. Still, no on* In Victoria, •nd surely no womaitk wlU <reenmiaead Jliat retr«u«hfBi«n| fball kegin ta the

iiii"

care of the sick. If the by-law is not paused there will bo real dlstres.s ainon^' the poor and among many whii can af- ford to |)uy lioapUul fees, hut who have only moderate means. Kvery voter -■li.ulU l.-arn just what couJitlona are and how Kreat Is the need for a new hospital. Victoria cannot afford, when she Is Inviting people to make their home here, not to make the most ample provision for sickness, even If her citi- zens were not too klndhearted to neglect

so plain a duty.

f

Tlie Iilneii SUower

While tho citizens of Victoria pro- pare for the building of a new hos- pital, her women must not be unmind- ful that there are Immediate need.s that mit.<^t be supplied. The Women's Auxiliary has undertaken the mainten- ance of the c<iulpmer.t of the wards aiid rooms. There are more patients at the Jttbhee than there ever were be- for ahd, aiB a consequence, the. wear, and iare has been greater. TM MPPly of bed and tabl^ linen has accordingly run low, and at this season it Is es- pecially necessary that It should be im- mediately replenished. The ladles of Victoria are invited to a linen shower at the nurses' home near the hospital, this afternoon. There are many who would be glad to contribute to the needs of the sick who are unknown to the members of the committee, and this paragraph Is written in the hope that U will catch tho eye of some generous woman, who has something to spare for other's needs, but who has hot been appealed to personally.

The Oaalsh Way

It Is Interesting to learn that the pro- mlor of Denmark has Introduced into

parliament a bill making women eligible not only to vote, but to hold seats In parliament. In Denmark, Norway and Sweden the agitation for woman suf- frage has been conducted along saner Mnes than In -fBnghtnd. -Mw and^wmien- ,have agreed to work together for wo- inan suffrage. There has been little, if any, «ex antagonism. While there has been differnu^e of oplnlDn tetiweMi par^Ues. t>liH<«<1tM not beejt^.tstitp^mA bittAtSfaill between men and women. Yet IJn 'DetMiArk women are'employcd In nn- ustiial positions. There is, in Cppen* hagen, at least one woman who is do- ing valuable work among women and girls as an officer of the law. Her work is valuable because it has been under- taken with the approval of the commun- ity. It Is as the helpmates of men that ; women in the north are entering into''- jkublto life.

Who Wrote Shakespeare?

BRITSSKl^S. Oct. 26.— M. Celcstln Dembion, the weU-known Socialist deputy nnd professor of literature who some time ago stated himself to be capable of proving the accuracy of the theory according to which most of the Hhakespeare dramas were the work of the Earl of Rutland, Is about to sup- port his contention in a book of 5T0 pages which will first appear In Paris, nnd afterwards In London, in nn Eng- lish version, and under the title or "Lord llutland Is Shakespeare." This worK win be followed by a second one t>earmg the Utle of -The Author o Hamlet and His Surroundings," and niu'^trated with portraits of the Earl of Rutland. Tho Belgian deputy believes hN works will be so convincing that the celebration of Shakespeare's third cen- tenary will turn Into a nutland celebra- tion even with the approval of the "Baconian" party. His mends, how- ever, express wise scepticism as to such a result.

Excuse' for l.»vlgne ^~~ — '" — ~

Take the r.nsr of KlU havisne, WhOm George Slier called the greatest light- wfiight who ever laced on a boxing glove. There was acme excuse for Lavlgne. He won the lightweight cham- pionship and cleaned up everybody In Mh cla.s.s. He had to moot blgnrer men or qtilt flRhtlng. The curfew tolled out his retirement when he tackled "Mys- torious" Billy Smith, a welterweight! and one of the greatest battlers In th> history of the ring. Lavigne went up HKaiiiKt him and In the fourtoentli round Ills br6ther tossed up the sponge to save George.

And so down the line. Instance after

Bayley lias noi lipgun to win the renown that the boys mentioned did and it would hp foolishness for him to lake a chance at having his career nljippd in the bud, no matter how remote that chance may appear to be.

SPORTING COMMENT

CMmaaa Vot Oaairwons

Now that the theory that the Swedes.

coached by Ernie MJertborg, are the

coming champions of the world, has

been shattered, some athletic experts are

holding the Germans up as the possible

conquerors of the other athletes In the

next Olympiad. But the general opinion

Is that when the 1916 Olympic games in

Berlin are concluded, representatives of

the English-speaking naUona will still

be found at the top of the heap.

There is no hockey war with the East, but that is not saying there will not be. Lester Patrick said last n'ight that he was ^awaiting developments in the East. If the N.

The future actions of the coast league depend entirely on Avhat is done at today's mooting of the N.H.A.

Lester stated last night tuiit all these men were signed by the coast league for New Westminster before Lichtenhelm made a move In their direction. Whether the other N.H.A. magnates will stand behind Lichten- helm or not will he known after th</ meeting. They must decide one way or the other or.

According to the story. Chance has turned down an offer of - $18,000 to go to another club: all he wants Is a chance to use whatever worth there Is left In him in behalf of Chicago.

Hon. Price Ellison, minister of flnanc^ and agriculture, returned yesterday from ..Lethbridge, Alberta, . where he represented the provlnoe at th« dry termlns congress. British Cojiunibla ■hewed a larce exh^foU of agricultural and natural resources, and many boards ot trade and- districts had good showings.

British Columbia was awarded the trophy for the best exhibit of fruit at the congress, and had the province not been debarred from competition on ac> count of its exhibit not being solely a dry-farming one, there la no doubt but that it would have taken the first place, as it was g«nerally conceded to be the best on view. The first prize for early potatoes was awarded to the province, and the flrut and aedond prise was also secured for late potatoes, to- g«ther with the sweepstake prise for the best potatoes on earth, the winning exhibit being sent from Armstrong.

spoke In a moat IntereBtlng way on the subject of dry farming, and Hon. Price iCUlson, who has had a large ■ex- perience aa a dry farmer for many years, spoke on ihe practical part of the subject.

This concession wlU entail an addi- tional charge on the exchequer of 18,200,000 yearly.

Although Sir Clifford Allbut, the famous physician, who is a member of the insurance advisory board, says the chancellor's proposition ought to be ac- ceptable to the medical profession, many dootora have already expressed strong views i^ainat It. If thia scheme fails, a national nodical aervloe will be created.' j. _
